instead took a private jet like any good eco activist would, those grotesque individuals even caused outrage by filming parts of their netflix documentary whilst the queen was ill last summer? they then released it slating the royal family. harry did his book in which he managed to offend everybody from a poor woman who took his virginity in a field to the taliban, which is quite an achievement. but harry barely showed his face at his father's coronation i'm glad that they won't be with the royals to commemorate the life of queen. she was of our dear late queen. she was a beacon of light and hope. she was classy, polite, intelligent , hard working, devoted to duty , patriotic, considered . and , patriotic, considered. and meghan and harry are none of those things. i'm glad that king charles didn't extend an invite because that would have given them both the chance to say no. and after everything that's happened, the default position should be to assume that they've said no to everything from now until end of time, unless until the end of time, unless you hear otherwise, as harry and meghan say, that they'll be

commemorating the queen's passing in their way, which passing in their own way, which probably involves harry fanning, meghan with a palm tree leaf while she performs some kind of dramatic reading about white privilege and colonialism , in privilege and colonialism, in which she'll have invited the press to protect the event's privacy . see, king charles has privacy. see, king charles has booted them out of frogmore cottage as well. so they no longer have anywhere to live in the good. because this is no the uk. good. because this is no longer home, it? the longer their home, is it? the anniversary of the queen's death is a day to remember somebody who embodies everything great in the world and there is no point diluting that with two people who often embody the very opposite . gb views is opposite. gb views is a gbnews.com. get those views coming in thick and fast, do you think now king charles was right to snub harry and meghan? do you think that harry and meghan should proactively should have proactively offered to do think that to come? do you think that actually best thing actually this is the best thing for everybody all round? dare i

say it as well? are there even a few there? if you few of you out there? if you are, i want to hear from you who think that maybe charles and william need to keep offering up the branches. a the olive branches. is it a little bit to have prince little bit rum to have prince andrew there and not harry? well, look , as i was just well, look, as i was just saying, snubbed . that is the saying, snubbed. that is the latest reality check for harry and meghan, apparently. what a birthday present from the king i'm joined now by royal commentator jennie i'm joined now by royal commentatorjennie bond to talk commentator jennie bond to talk all about it this. jennie, thank you very much. great to have you on the show. look there is a lot to unpack here. i think about harry and meghan and whether or not this is a proper snub or whether or not the royal family didn't just want to find themselves situation themselves in a situation where they to be said no to. they were open to be said no to. i mean, it's quite the birthday present for meghan markle. you do make me laugh. >> yes . >> yes. >> yes. >> splendid monologue, if i might say . might say. >> i think here you pays your money. >> you take your choice . some >> you take your choice. some sources say that harry and meghan have snubbed the royal family by refusing an open

invitation from charles. and today's report says that it's the other way round. i don't know who snubbed who or what's going on. what i do know is that if they were to come over here, it would be hashtag mega aukus. it really would be an awkward situation . you have to remember situation. you have to remember the time that harry was up the last time that harry was up at balmoral day of the at balmoral was the day of the queen's death. he was the last to arrive. he felt he'd been snubbed them by not being allowed be on the same plane allowed to be on the same plane as many the other members as many of the other members of the he was the first to the family. he was the first to leave morning. leave early in the morning. things really bad things were clearly really bad there at that particular family reunion, and i have no reason to think they'd be any better at a reunion this september. >> yeah , no, exactly. but >> yeah, no, exactly. but i mean, it just is a visible sign, isn't it? i think if the complete chasm now complete , complete chasm now complete, that chasm between the working members of the royal family and them, and it takes me back to that day , sadly, when our queen that day, sadly, when our queen did pass and that big hoo ha

about whether or not meghan was allowed to come, and then harry having to get a private jet. and i just think if you'd have cared a bit more for her in her final years anyway. and a final moment is there, maybe you would have had an invite . had an invite. >> i don't think you've got a private jet. actually. think private jet. actually. i think he easyjet or something. a he took easyjet or something. a scheduled up balmoral scheduled airline up to balmoral , whereas others went in in , whereas the others went in in a private or queen's flight jet. what i think the case here is, is that time can be a great healer. we all know that. we all say time will heal everything. i think in this case it's not going to heal. in fact, i think positions have become so entrenched that the rest of family have just moved on. and charles, i accept him a bit from this because he's the dad and he still loves his boy. obviously but i think certainly between william and harry, there is no going back and it's just a fait accompli now that they don't talk, they have no intention of talking the two families go their own ways , and i think their own ways, and i think that's how it's going to stay.

and is making that more and time is making that more certain. i hope personally that charles somehow now reaches out in that awful american phrase to his son and continues to say he wants to see him because i think that's what a dad has to do. but i don't think harry is making it easy. >> what about the fact that andrew is going there because some people will be saying, well, hang on a minute. if we were to snub everyone who were to going snub everyone who was in some way disgraced or had helped to contribute towards a dark cloud hanging over the queen's final days, then i suppose those air miles, andy, would maybe be somebody who should have missed out . should have missed out. >> yes, but charles has made it obvious that he wants to include his brother in family events . his brother in family events. and this is a family event. and i think it will be quite churlish to exclude sarah ferguson , the duchess of york, ferguson, the duchess of york, given that she's just had breast cancer and say she can't come. so it's become a pattern now.

but at family events, andrew and sarah and their two children are ianed sarah and their two children are invited and we have to be pleased about that . surely mean pleased about that. surely mean family harmony is better than family harmony is better than family dysfunction , royal family. >> i really do think that this is a really good way of king charles boosting his popularity because unfortunately, it's a hard act to follow. i've used this analogy before . usually this analogy before. usually most things can come back to footballing analogies and following sir alex ferguson was always going to be a poisoned chalice for whoever came in. david moyes didn't last particularly long or fare particularly long or fare particularly well. king charles has got the world's hardest act to follow when it comes to our queen. but i think showing some clear water between him and harry is actually quite a good tactic now to boost him in the polls . polls. >> well, yeah, i think as i say, they've moved on. they've gone away from the toxicity that harry and meghan seem to spread amongst them and they've just let it go. i'm sure there's

great sadness within the family that that's the case. but this happensin that that's the case. but this happens in families, doesn't it? ihave happens in families, doesn't it? i have experience of family rifts where that rift will never be healed. and you just get on with life. and i think that's what charles is doing. and, you know, i think it's clear that the majority. well a large proportion of people in this country feel that harry and meghan are probably better where they are. we hope they're very happy. they are. we hope they're very happy- i they are. we hope they're very happy. i hope she had a lovely birthday and we hope that they get their lives happily get on with their lives happily ever get on with their lives happily eveyeah, well, we'll have to >> yeah, well, we'll have to see. we'll to mean, see. we'll have to see. i mean, in the next hour, i'm going to be playing a weird clip, actually, harry meghan actually, of harry and meghan doing of charity doing some kind of charity giveaway. one of their giveaway. it's one of their first appearances together for quite have first appearances together for quite a have first appearances together for quite a of have first appearances together for quite a of rumours have first appearances together for quite a of rumours which; been a lot of rumours which they've denied the they've denied about the strength their relationship, strength of their relationship, ship otherwise. solo ship or otherwise. some solo tours taking place. tours and events taking place. the the duke and the brand of the duke and duchess of sussex has taken a right royal kicking when it comes every single business comes to every single business venture seem have tried. venture they seem to have tried. so yes , whether or not they so yes, whether or not they realise that they might be realise now that they might be better apart than together,

we'll have wait see. but, we'll have to wait and see. but, jenny, thank you very much. jennie bond, is royal jennie bond, who is the royal commentator, fabulous commentator, always a fabulous edition. to start any edition. what a way to start any show wonderful show by having the wonderful jennie up at the show by having the wonderful jenn but up at the show by having the wonderful jenn but this up at the show by having the wonderful jenn but this is up at the show by having the wonderful jennbut this is an up at the show by having the wonderful jennbut this is an issue at the show by having the wonderful jennbut this is an issue that; top. but this is an issue that affects absolutely everybody. why? well, because we at why? well, because we all at some going rely on some point are going to rely on the or some other form of the nhs or some other form of health care. okay it's an issue that suddenly brits that suddenly many brits have become accustomed mass become accustomed to mass waiting get access to waiting times to get access to the nhs. and now the government's latest plans to use private clinics to cut nhs waiting lists. well, they've been met by scepticism by some experts, but they're arguing that it ignores the root of the problem. fine. i think if you need health care right now, you don't necessarily care too much about the root of the problem. you want to get health you just want to get health care. but the king's say care. but the king's fund say that strike action has contributed to the waiting list and should be paid to and attention should be paid to staffing levels to bring the numbers down, health minister maria caulfield has also admitted that the current waiting the way, waiting list, which by the way, is at 7.4 million people, is

still going to rise despite the expand use of the private sector. again, there is a heck of a lot to unpack here when all of a lot to unpack here when all of those strikes are taking place. i was saying, you know, they want to be careful that nhs staff don't not strike themselves out of a job, but actually leads to the complete remodelling of our beloved nhs system . and it appears now that system. and it appears now that the inevitable battle is happening. let's cross to the department of health and join our political correspondent olivia utley olivia. this is an absolutely massive story actually that i think could come to define and shape the way that we do health care in this country for the remainder of our lifetimes. although given the state of the current nhs, our lifetimes might not be that long. what's going on? >> yes, as you say, it is a really big step forward for the conservatives and rishi sunak in particular. when he got the leadership position last year , leadership position last year, he talked about his five priorities and he's been talking about those repeatedly ever since. he's like a dog with a bone with those five priorities.

and one of them is cutting nhs waiting lists. well, as you say, he hasn't been particularly successful at that so far at the moment, waiting lists are just under 7.5 million people. that's the highest since records began in early two in the early 2000. so this is a big step forward. essentially, what rishi sunak is doing is offering up private capacity for the nhs to use so 13 new diagnostic centres as he calls them, are going to open. most of them in the south—west of england and a few in the midlands, which will be able to offer scans and appointments for people on nhs people who are currently on nhs waiting no one will have waiting lists. no one will have to pay the point of use for to pay at the point of use for those scans or treatment, but the government will pay, the nhs will pay those private clinics to the service for nhs to provide the service for nhs patients. now now what's so interesting about this political rally is that it just shows how the national conversation about the national conversation about the nhs has really changed very dramatically in the last few years . and during the 2019

years. and during the 2019 general election when jeremy corbyn was leader of the labour party, it was impossible even to use the words privatisation and nhs in the same sentence because the left would say this is what the left would say this is what the tories are planning to do. they're just going to privatise our wonderful glorious nhs. a few years later with waiting lists still at record levels and targets for cancer care etcetera, heart care missed repeatedly . we're sinking to the repeatedly. we're sinking to the very bottom of the league tables. it now seems that it is possible to have a national conversation about at least using some sort of private capacity for the nhs . and capacity for the nhs. and interestingly, wes streeting, the shadow chancellor, the shadow secretary, has shadow health secretary, has said, hasn't criticised the plan at all. in fact he's all he said is labour would have done it quicker. >> yeah, this is it. they're saying now and the lib dems are saying now and the lib dems are saying that dems are saying that the lib dems are saying, well, didn't do saying, well, why didn't you do this well hang on this before? well hang on a minute. was because if they'd minute. it was because if they'd had tried to do it before, you just they wanted just said that they wanted to kill the nhs were too kill the nhs they were too afraid actually doing it.

afraid of actually doing it. what? can't quite understand. what? i can't quite understand. olivia. don't if you olivia. i don't know if you might to shed a bit more might be able to shed a bit more light this, is that there are light on this, is that there are massive waiting lists in the nhs at lot of it is to at the moment. a lot of it is to do with perceived understaffing . we can't get people to see and get appointments, but if you go private you can get those appointments. so what's happening? are they employing more staff in there or is this just existing nhs staff who do private work on the side who are now going to be asked to do nhs appointments? what's happening ? appointments? what's happening? >> well, it's an interesting and quite a sort of complex problem. i mean, issue is that in the i mean, one issue is that in the nhs there an awful lot of nhs there is an awful lot of bureaucracy and one complaint that i've heard time and time again striking doctors is again from striking doctors is the is we can't ever do the problem is we can't ever do our clinical work because we are so bogged down in paperwork in the private sector that paperwork is sort of managed more efficiently, managed by different there's more different people. there's more non—clinical staff in some non—clinical staff or in some cases there's just less bureaucracy altogether . so

bureaucracy altogether. so doctors have more sort of capacity to get on with their jobs. another issue which of course the unions have been highlighting in quite effective style over the last few months, is that in some cases nhs doctors are simply leaving the practise and moving either to the private sector completely or leaving the country altogether . leaving the country altogether. we've seen an excess of junior doctors leaving from britain to australia in the past few years because they feel that they are underpaid . so there are problems underpaid. so there are problems with recruitment and retainment in the nhs . but as we know, in the nhs. but as we know, there are a wealth of other problems too, and a lot of it comes from bureaucracy and a lack of data on nhs patients. yeah olivia, thank you very much. >> that's olivia rutley there who's outside the department of health. it's our political correspondent . this is health. it's our political correspondent. this is an health. it's our political correspondent . this is an exact correspondent. this is an exact sign now of political weakness in this country, so we've needed to reform the nhs. part of that could be going to some kind of double system of both national health service as it is, and

private health care. we were prevented from doing that because if you did that, you would been slated saying would have been slated saying that you want kill off the that you want to kill off the nhs now that finally nhs and now that it finally happens after had to happen happens after it's had to happen because levels because we've got record levels of waiting lists, people are dying. it's completely dysfunctional, it's hit rock bottom. to do bottom. so we have to do something about it. and now all the other parties out and something about it. and now all the iwell,parties out and something about it. and now all the well, you es out and something about it. and now all the well, you should out and something about it. and now all the well, you should have and something about it. and now all the well, you should have done say, well, you should have done something about it sooner. shouldn't should shouldn't you? yes, they should have political have done. but political weakness stopped us doing it weakness has stopped us doing it and increasing our population by goodness single goodness knows what every single year either, has year hasn't helped either, has it? go. on it? but there we go. more on this story our website, this story on our website, gbnews.com. the fastest growing national website the national news website in the country. don't know it's got country. don't you know it's got all the best analysis, big opinion breaking coming all the best analysis, big opirfine breaking coming all the best analysis, big opirfine really�*aking coming all the best analysis, big opirfine really some coming up. fine really some consequences . greenpeace has consequences. greenpeace has been blacklisted by the government after their disgraceful protest at rishi sunak home. i'm going to be talking about all of that. i'm going to be talking about a ulez u—turn. so some good news for motorists, maybe a bit of common sense there as well. and find out why some utter snow flake

children have called mummy and daddy to rescue them from a scouts event. patrick christys on gb news. it's

channel good news for motorists. a ulez u—turn. sadiq khan has extended the ulez scrappage scheme across london, offering all londoners £2,000 to replace non—compliant cars. £2,000 to replace non—compliant cars . it's a step £2,000 to replace non—compliant cars. it's a step in the right

direction. it's not the answer, but it is a thing. he's getting there. i really do think that there. i really do think that the next election could well be won and lost on policies like this. and if rishi sunak plays his cards right and rows back, rows back on the ban of new petrol and diesel cars, then actually he's got a decent shout. but talking of green stuff , greenpeace has defended stuff, greenpeace has defended its anti oil protest at prime minister rishi sunaks constituency home amid the group's co—executive director said that the roof protest had been planned carefully and would not have gone ahead if the prime minister was there. well, look, five activists who scaled the pm's home have since been released on bail and later this afternoon, environment secretary therese coffey told officials at the department for environment , the department for environment, food and rural affairs to cancel any planned meetings with the charity. so they've been blacklisted . joining me now is blacklisted. joining me now is conservative mp for ipswich. it's tom hunt. tom thank you. are we right to blacklist

greenpeace . absolutely absolutely. >> i don't i don't think greenpeace can masquerade is an acceptable professional organisation when they behave like they did yesterday. >> they're no better than just stop oil. they're no better than extinction they extinction rebellion. so they can't have this of double can't have this kind of double life where on the one hand they do what they did yesterday and then on other hand expect to then on the other hand expect to have, you know, lattes and portcullis house of government ministers be ministers and mps and be all professional. really professional. it's a really interesting come out interesting polling has come out today think today saying i think overwhelming of the overwhelming majority of the pubuc overwhelming majority of the public what they did public reject what they did yesterday rejected their yesterday, rejected their tactics yesterday . tactics yesterday. >> even i think 46% of labour voters. >> so think that makes it >> so i think that makes it incredibly clear that the public at large reject the kind of intrusive, disgraceful tactics they employed yesterday at the prime minister's private .

the evening. the showers in the east disappearing, tending east disappearing, but tending to continue north—east to continue across north—east england time . and cloud england for a time. and cloud cover across the cover increasing across the country. the rain turning heavy and in western areas and persisting in western areas and persisting in western areas and northern ireland at risk of localised flooding because of course saturated ground here following the wettest july on record. we start record. as we start off saturday, it looking poor out saturday, it is looking poor out there. if you're not a fan of wind and rain, certainly we've got plenty of it pushing across northern ireland into england and winds really and wales. the winds really picking irish sea picking up across irish sea coast into the south coast and then into the south and of england and and southwest of england and wales coast , 60, 65 and southwest of england and wales coast, 60, 65 mile wales around coast, 60, 65 mile per hour wind gusts could cause some impacts for outdoor activities. camping for example, really unseasonable conditions out there. and as the rain comes down, temperatures only reaching around 13, 14 celsius through central parts. showers for scotland and northern ireland and this pulls on and all of this pulls through on sunday much improved day. sunday and much improved day. plenty sunshine to start plenty of sunshine to start things especially through things off, especially through central parts. still a few showers about and still 1 or 2 showers about and still 1 or 2 showers as we start off. next week and temperatures again

struggling at the start of next week before it then turns drier and warmer . and warmer. >> looks like things are heating up . boxed boilers proud sponsors up. boxed boilers proud sponsors of weather on . of weather on. gb news. >> we're back. yeah, sorry about that. someone from greenpeace turned up and cut my mic cable. but anyway, joining me again is conservative for ipswich is conservative mp for ipswich is tom hunt. tom, good to have you on board with us still. tom so right, so you've cut ties now, have with greenpeace? just have you, with greenpeace? just re everybody re explain to everybody what's happened. party happened. the tory party have looked at what did to rishi looked at what they did to rishi sunaks home and they've said, no, enough . no, that's enough. >> well, mean, what i don't >> well, i mean, what i don't think is right that on the one hand, greenpeace, you know, from time try and behave time to time will try and behave like a respectable organisation and for lots and they'll want to go for lots and they'll want to go for lots and portcullis house and meet with parliament with members of parliament or meet ministers try and meet with ministers and try and pretend kind pretend that they're a kind of sensible organisation and then on the other employ a kind

on the other hand, employ a kind of disgraced tactics of reckless, disgraced tactics were employed yesterday invading the minister's private home. >> so i don't think they can have it both ways. and therefore i think that teresa coffey is right, you know, to not treat this organisation like a serious organisation all organisation and to cancel all meetings. interesting interestingly, was some interestingly, there was some polling just seen yougov interestingly, there was some pollisays just seen yougov interestingly, there was some pollisays that st seen yougov interestingly, there was some pollisays that evenen yougov interestingly, there was some pollisays that even amongstgov that says that even amongst labour voters reject the labour voters who reject the tactics employed greenpeace tactics employed by greenpeace yesterday tactics yesterday is disgraceful tactics . it's indefensible, indefensible and worrying and a lot of different levels. >> but i think tom actually we you are at as a party now a vital line in the sand to take into the next general election. i am convinced that the wider public, the vast majority of people do not want to press ahead with some of these green policies to the extent and at the pace and at the expense of everything else. and you have a great opportunity, i think, to put some clear water between you and the labour party, lest we forget, are indeed part funded by just stop oil

>> and of course, another important aspect of this debate is about public order and about the role of the police, because we know that actually the arrests that took place yesterday, interventions of police made yesterday were made possible legislation. police made yesterday were made possible in legislation. police made yesterday were made possible in this legislation. police made yesterday were made possible in this parliament]. we brought in this parliament that opposed. that the labour party opposed. however even with those new powers, i actually powers, i would actually question why it was . but after question why it was. but after the police turned up about the police turned up for about a further 3 or 4 hours, the greenpeace activists were able to stay in place on on the to just stay in place on on the prime house. i mean, prime minister's house. i mean, i would have liked to have seen them immediately removed. scruff of booted you them immediately removed. scruff of people ooted you them immediately removed. scruff of people coming you them immediately removed. scruff of people coming down from know, people coming down from helicopters zip wire and helicopters on the zip wire and booting booting all the booting the booting off all the activists immediately. why they were still there were able to still stay there for four hours. i do for a further four hours. i do not and i agree, there are not know. and i agree, there are questions about why we're able to first place. to get there in the first place. but we are seeing but ultimately, we are seeing from things like the public order act that which which the government are seeing government passed, we are seeing some ground. and, some results on the ground. and, you day we're seeing you know, every day we're seeing just a ball activists being just a ball of activists being booted in a way booted off highways in a way they ago. they weren't a few months ago. so making some progress. so we are making some progress. but yesterday proves

but clearly yesterday proves that to go. in that we need further to go. in terms public order. yeah terms of public order. yeah i mean, i would have been bang in favour of turning rishi sunaks home of scene out home into some kind of scene out of iranian embassy for of the iranian embassy for a penod of the iranian embassy for a period time. period of time. >> but apparently that's not the world live anymore. tom world we live in anymore. tom but i think you raise another good point because as it's important the next important for people at the next general they go general election, when they go into polling to into that polling booth to really consider what it is that they are voting for. and under laboun they are voting for. and under labour, it is reasonable to suggest that you would be voting for green policies as led by parties and pressure groups who employ mafia style tactics . and employ mafia style tactics. and you will be voting for a labour party who would have done nothing to have stopped them using those tactics whenever they wanted . and those are two they wanted. and those are two big things . big things. >> yeah, i mean, we can apply that logic to the green debate. we can apply it to public order. we can apply it to public order. we could also apply it to immigration an we saw yesterday a elected labour councillor

promoting her services to help illegal migrants avoid deportation . yeah, and that's deportation. yeah, and that's why i think dividing lines are important because some people say, oh, dividing line approach to politics is a bit like, you know, dividing lines are necessary, they're necessary because they bring out the opposition and they they opposition and they and they begin their true begin to show their true colours. starmer can be colours. keir starmer can be quite skilled at sitting on the fence and trying to pretend he has views. and i think has no views. and i think occasionally dividing are occasionally dividing lines are important gives important because it gives us a clearer sense the modern day clearer sense of the modern day labour beneath labour party scratch beneath the surface bit of a sense surface and get a bit of a sense of these. this hasn't of these. this party hasn't changed and you know , however changed and you know, however much people might be frustrated with from time to with the government from time to time could a lot worse time, it could get a lot worse with a labour government and i think the prime ministers are a good of weeks. he's good couple of weeks. he's absolutely north sea absolutely right. with north sea oil, we're going to to oil, if we're going to have to use and in the short to use oil and gas in the short to medium term, yes, why not use it in britain? it creates jobs. it's and it's more sustainable and probably better for the probably actually better for the environment because of transportation issues. so i think prime minister is bang think the prime minister is bang on. yesterday on. but what happened yesterday was greenpeace was disgraceful. greenpeace are a extreme organisation who

should not be able to masquerade when it suits them as a respectable latte drinking in portcullis house. well, this is it. >> this is it.- >> this is it. it. >> this is it. those two things do not match up, and i've said it before, i'll say it again. it's the kind of thing the mafia would do if you don't agree with us, we'll turn up to your house, right? if you don't agree with us, we'll ruin your wedding. you know, vegan. know, it's kind of vegan. horse's in bed horse's head in the bed territory. tom. thank you very, very tom hunter, very much. tom hunter, conservative mp for ipswich. it's he mentioned conservative mp for ipswich. it's a he mentioned conservative mp for ipswich. it's a little he mentioned conservative mp for ipswich. it's a little hethat ntioned conservative mp for ipswich. it's a little hethat we ned conservative mp for ipswich. it's a little hethat we are there a little story that we are to going be covering later. i am asking, does future labour asking, does a future labour government just mean government actually just mean more for illegal more loopholes for illegal immigrants? has immigrants? the labour party has stood labour stood strong behind a labour councillor who's been basically trying to help illegal immigrants stay in britain. is that the future that we are heading towards ? but we've got heading towards? but we've got to exclusive for you to gb news exclusive for you now. nhs muslim chaplain has now. an nhs muslim chaplain has been photographed meeting with taliban ministers on a charity trip to afghanistan on a delegation of muslim ministers. the chaplain met with the taliban's foreign minister, justice minister and minister

for of vice and virtue . well, for of vice and virtue. well, joining us to discuss his exclusive is gb news investigative reporter charlie peters. charlie, thank you very much . surely this cannot be true much. surely this cannot be true that somebody other than tobias ellwood has thought it was a goodidea ellwood has thought it was a good idea to go and meet the taliban. well yeah. >> it's not your ordinary houday >> it's not your ordinary holiday destination, but i do understand that suliman ghani, the chaplain for saint george's in south london, did use his annual leave to take a trip to afghanistan. >> now he claims that this was on a charity trip for a charity called human aid. and advocacy. i've given a statement by i've been given a statement by them said that they were them who said that they were supporting the relief that supporting the relief in that country. of afghanistan country. of course, afghanistan has a humanitarian has been in a humanitarian crisis since september 2021, when the taliban came back into rule. it's also been hit by natural disasters as well as those man made. but what's really extraordinary about this trip isn't just the charitable element where they say they're supporting a hospital and a vocational skills institute. they've also met with these

taliban ministers, those watching can see them on the screen. but if you're listening on the radio, he met with a taliban foreign minister, a man called amir khan muttaqi mr muttaqi between 1996 and 2001, led what the taliban described as a propagandist jihadist , as a propagandist jihadist, systematic network. he ran the idea of jihad and resistance to the west in afghanistan. clearly quite an extreme individual and not necessarily someone who, if you're working in the nhs, you should be meeting. and moreover , we also understand that this delegation met with the taliban's chief justice minister, sheikh abdul hakim haqqani. mr haqqani released a statement via the afghan supreme court . and this is the most court. and this is the most alarming part of our report, i believe, where the supreme court claimed that the british delegation expressed the british muslims are very happy with the islamic emirate of afghanistan and that they pray for its survival . so the statement, survival. so the statement, which was in pashto , which we

which was in pashto, which we which was in pashto, which we which we've translated , went on which we've translated, went on to claim that british muslims and the delegation see the example of the islamic emirate of afghanistan as a role model for shariah and a role model for the islamic world. now, if you're working in the nhs as a chaplain and providing care and guidance to patients, is it acceptable for you to also be issued statements supporting supporting the taliban's rule ? supporting the taliban's rule? let's not forget they run a very extreme government in afghanistan . an there's been afghanistan. an there's been evidence of human rights abuses like public flogging, executions , arbitrary detention. the rights of women and girls rolled back as well. obviously as you can imagine, i reached out to the various people involved in this story, the nhs wouldn't give us a statement, but they did remove suleiman ghani's name from the website afterwards and human aid and advocacy, the charity he was travelling on, reaffirmed that it was a

delegation of british imams on a dialogue based humanity visit. but our reporting shows it was a bit more than that. yeah look, absolutely. >> charlie, thank you very, very much. and thank you for exposing this as well as charlie peters with that exclusive for you about an nhs muslim chaplain being meeting being photographed meeting the taliban. concerned the increasingly concerned about the amount of people in this country who seem willing to legitimise essentially terror groups . we essentially terror groups. we had a report into the prevent scheme which showed that some of those charities that are supposed to help stop extremism had expressed support for the taliban. we were giving them money, weren't we? and then we see banned hate preachers coming oven see banned hate preachers coming over. himself managed to over. charlie himself managed to expose that . but the problem for expose that. but the problem for me i think in places of me was that i think in places of leicester, birmingham, not ingham and a part of london, this radical extreme ist who praised nine over 11 and praised osama bin laden was supposed to be drawing crowds of hundreds if not thousands of people. so we have a hotbed group of people there who thought that was okay

and that clearly agree with those views. somebody else there, someone who works in the nhs, going in, meeting the taliban, his promo for taliban, doing his own promo for it. should be, i think, a it. it should be, i think, a huge concern that there is a deep undercurrent in this country who are clearly very sympathetic to the views of the taliban . but yes, there we go. taliban. but yes, there we go. gb views or gb views .com. we'll have loads more on that story andindeed have loads more on that story and indeed others. but facing internal labour party pressure, sadiq khan has issued a ulez u—turn . well, kind of. it's u—turn. well, kind of. it's a step in the right direction though. look will it be enough to quell people fury at this scheme? and this isn't just a london story because ulez and other schemes like it. they are absolutely. if they've not already, they're coming to a town or a city near you. and once they've come to that town or city, they will come to the village . and then frankly, village. and then frankly, whenever takes their car whenever anyone takes their car off driveway, it will cost off a driveway, it will cost them could stopped? them money. could it be stopped? find shortly. patrick find out. very shortly. patrick christys gb news. are

channel yes. welcome back. now after weeks of backlash since the conservative gives win in uxbndge conservative gives win in uxbridge and south ruislip by—election, labour have been at war with themselves over ulez. now labour figures like emily thornberry wes streeting and even sir keir starmer himself have pointed the finger firmly at sadiq khan and his planned expansion of the scheme throughout london. of course it

isn't just london is it? we, birmingham, manchester, etcetera etcetera. and now today a back down of sorts. so has sadiq khan seen that the writing is on the wall? khan has expanded the scrappage scheme, so all londoners will now be able to access up to £2,000 to replace their non—compliant cars. but their non—compliant cars. but the last time i checked , the the last time i checked, the cheapest electric vehicle was somewhere in the region of around £20,000, maybe even closer to £30,000. joining me now is the co—founder of the together declaration . it's alan together declaration. it's alan miller. alan thank you very much. great to have you on the show. is this a step in the right direction for motorists everywhere? do we think that it's going to get softer and softer and actually it's going to be scrapped altogether? ulez . well, as you say, patrick, it's a big gap between 2000 or a few thousand more and 30,000 for the cheapest vans, 50% of vans outside london are non—compliant, taking our money

to pay a small proportion to scrap cars. scrap cdl’s. >> scrap cars. >> i mean, people used to be really promoting the idea of recycled cycling and keeping things and doing them up. >> now what we've got is a situation where they're trying to scrap vehicles or charge them and you can pay to carry on using them. that's the other thing. everyone should remember. >> i think , you know, sadiq >> i think, you know, sadiq khan's doubled down. he's using more of our money to pay for something that shouldn't be in place. there's no need for this. >> there's got better than it ever has been over the last four decades. >> the argument he's fallen back on is 4000 deaths a year. >> absolutely. made up hocus pocus. >> it's a lie . >> it's a lie. >> extrapolated from imperial college. >> not what they say at all. >> not what they say at all. >> if he wants to focus on extending lives and better health, he can focus on better housing and focus on making sure that the economy is open and people earn better money and he should take a look underground with tfl, which he's actually in

charge of. and we know that various tests have shown the particles there are very problematic think it's ridiculous and frankly, this is why people are so furious about it. and there's another rally tomorrow at trafalgar square . tomorrow at trafalgar square. people are going to keep campaigning and challenging this together campaigning and challenging this tog indeed . >> indeed. >> indeed. >> do you think that ulez is literally just a money making scheme and it's not actually based around health benefits at all? >> there can be no benefits from this situation. i mean, look , this situation. i mean, look, here's a guy who had a consultation where over 65% said they did not want it. in addition to 5000 people that he just ignored and said they weren't the right type of people, in spite taking all the cycling campaigners, they always take in the consultations. then at the same time he's implementing he's bought anpr cameras for the scheme in advance of the consultation . we advance of the consultation. we don't see anything serious about this. i mean, you know, it's not like saying we're going to have a smoking ban and there's just a ban on what you're saying is you

can pay to have it. so the whole thing logically doesn't make sense. it's not about health. it's absolutely there's a shortfall with tfl that's something between the mayor and the government they need to resolve. there's a problem with devolution as well. i mean, all these things significant these things are significant issues. to be issues. they have to be addressed end it. addressed at the end of it. patrick the that patrick it's the public that suffers. you know, tomorrow there's be a rally with there's going to be a rally with action against ulez together and all campaigners. is all the campaigners. is a coalition stop ulez. it's coalition to stop ulez. it's getting stronger. getting stronger and stronger. people had people are saying they've had enough they enough of this situation. they don't this imposition. it don't want this imposition. it is democratic . if khan wants is not democratic. if khan wants to find out what people think , to find out what people think, let's have a referendum on it. yes no to ulez expansion. it's very straightforward. what cost benefit ? benefit? >> yeah. what? this is what this is. alan right. is a is a luxury view and we're seeing a lot of that at the moment. a lot of these green policies are luxury views. put forward by people who can the can either afford the consequences of their or consequences of their actions or won't face consequence of won't face the consequence of their it's the same won't face the consequence of theirthe it's the same won't face the consequence of theirthe old it's the same won't face the consequence of theirthe old refugees. ame won't face the consequence of theirthe old refugees. welcome with the old refugees. welcome brigade. people who

brigade. these are people who all too often either say, well, we haven't got room to house refugees, won't affect us refugees, so it won't affect us anyway, living lovely anyway, or they're living lovely gated communities. rapid gated communities. so rapid population illegal population growth and illegal migration won't affect them. but actually the vast majority of the don't live in that the people don't live in that luxury world. and those people who already the breadline who are already on the breadline and cases who and in some cases nurses who live the and live outside the boundary and who shifts transcend to different days would basically have to pay double in order to get in and out of work. those people do not have a luxury lifestyle and they cannot be expected to pay for this kind of stuff. alan, thank you very much. good luck with your your protest, your demonstration as well. alan miller there of the together co—founder together declaration co—founder of as i said as well, of it. and as i said as well, this i think, now will be a good turning point for a lot of places. places have places. a lot of places have labour right. and labour mayors. right. and i think maybe those labour think now maybe those labour mayors actually think twice mayors will actually think twice about before i end the about it. but before i end the houn about it. but before i end the hour, wanted to bring you hour, i wanted to bring you this. this look, i personally think story hilarious , think this story is hilarious, okay? know, maybe the okay? but, you know, maybe the parents of some of the scouts

involved differently. 4000 involved think differently. 4000 british are leaving an british scouts are leaving an international event in south korea after being hit with extreme heat. now now, apparently hundreds of people fell ill at the world scout jamboree. temperatures reached 35 degrees. they were saying the scout association have confirmed that their scouts are now being moved to hotels and the south korean government said it's sending water, air and medics to the site. but what a bit i found hilarious was that apparently some of these kids were calling their parents, saying it's a bit hot, right? it's a bit hot. we feel like we're going to die. there's mosquitoes here. i had to have a pot of desert for my lunch because there wasn't enough. and the parents have been getting in touch, hammering them all, saying, saying we've got to pull our babies out of there . oh, oh, this is there. oh, oh, this is ridiculous. they feel like they're going to die. i think ratio got heat stroke. horatio's got heat stroke. these are supposed to be scouts, right? are they not? people who are supposed to be survival experts

7 supposed to be survival experts ? grylls is there for ? bear grylls is there for goodness sake, bear goodness sake, the actual bear grylls off of the telly. and i think the former sas as well, he's just urging everyone to be calm, doubt, because this he's just urging everyone to be calmthat doubt, because this he's just urging everyone to be calmthat badit, because this he's just urging everyone to be calmthat bad whatsoeverthis he's just urging everyone to be calmthat bad whatsoever .|is he's just urging everyone to be calmthat bad whatsoever . a isn't that bad whatsoever. a generation of snowflakes and also it appears to me anyway , also it appears to me anyway, being led by their parents who are also snowflakes . next time are also snowflakes. next time just take them skiing. although of course you probably wouldn't just in case one of them gets frostbite low. still to come between now and the end of this show, i'm going to be talking about king charles snubbing harry as well . you harry and meghan as well. you love to see it. patrick christys gb news a brighter outlook with boxt solar. >> proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. >> hi there. it's aidan mcgivern here from the met office. with the gb news forecast, drier and warmer weather is on the way for later next week. more on that in a moment. but for the time being, we've got the same old a lot of showers across eastern parts country. drier

when harry did his book spare? meghan wasn't really anywhere to be seen . and then the commercial be seen. and then the commercial deals dried up. i think they had a spotify called them grifters, and there's been a lot of backlash. then they had that that weird press release statement about the fast and the furious car chase around new york that just didn't really happen. there were lot of happen. and there were a lot of rumours about whether or not everything is indeed rosy in the garden for montecito garden for the montecito moaners. but they made a rare pubuc moaners. but they made a rare public appearance in this video, which looks a little bit like a hostage situation . hostage situation. >> congratulations. this is great. and we're so happy to have you as part of this team. >> really, thank you for all the work you're doing. it's huge. it's making an enormous impact. >> thank you for doing everything that you do. >> our especially, are >> our kids especially, are incredibly grateful. >> know it yet. >> they don't know it yet. >> they don't know it yet. >> don't know yet, but >> they don't know it yet, but they will. >> they don't know it yet, but the so ill. >> they don't know it yet, but the so good to talk to you. bye >> so good to talk to you. bye bye. have a good one. >> bye bye . sorry. >> bye bye. sorry. >> bye bye. sorry.

>> yeah . i mean, it's not really >> yeah. i mean, it's not really a surprise ing phone call, is it? you do you wonder? oh, there's a camera crew in front of me here. i mean, there's no way that there's anything anything extraordinary could be about you see about to happen. when you see acting that, you realise, acting like that, you realise, don't meghan markle is now don't you? meghan markle is now so keen on voiceover but so keen on voiceover work. but with a look at with me now to take a look at whether or not this is a fair move the king to snub them, move from the king to snub them, apparently queen's apparently from the queen's commemoration is royal commentator michael cole and bushra sheikh, political commentator for. so it's always ladies first on this show. so i will start with you, bushra. do you think do you think that king charles is right to snub them ? charles is right to snub them? >> i don't think so . look, >> i don't think so. look, that's prince harry's father . that's prince harry's father. and, you know, it's still speculation. we're not sure whether he's entirely been snubbed just yet. and i think it's important for harry to rebuild his ties with the royal family at the moment. >> okay. short and sweet, michael, i'll over to michael, i'll throw it over to you. mean, do you think that you. i mean, do you think that this is it's a good it's a good snubbing. >> good afternoon, patrick. >> good afternoon, patrick. >> one word, you like one

>> in one word, you like one word answers. >> in one word, you like one woryesiswers. >> in one word, you like one woryes ,.wers. >> in one word, you like one woryes , iners. >> in one word, you like one woryes , in physics, basic >> yes, in physics, basic physics , every action demands physics, every action demands a reaction. and this pair, particularly prince harry, have been knocking seven bells out of the royal family for the last years. >> there's no sign of any let up. of course , every prodigal up. of course, every prodigal son will always be welcomed home, but i think there's going to have to be a pretty abject apology from prince harry if he's ever going to be readmitted within the house of windsor because he's done something which is unforgiving , laughable which is unforgiving, laughable in the eyes of prince william in particular, but also his father, the king >> he has insulted and said unkind and cruel things about their wives. now, most men can put up with being insulted and goodness knows, i've got some practise on that. but what they don't like is when their wives are insulted. and that has happenedin are insulted. and that has happened in the book spare. and it's happened elsewhere. and those things go home. and i think it's going to be a very, very long time before prince

william can bring himself to be reconciled with his brother . and reconciled with his brother. and when you think they were so close at one time, it really is very, very sad indeed . very, very sad indeed. >> yeah. okay, buster, just react to that because if they'd have cared so much about the queen, then maybe they would have made more of an effort when she alive instead of as many she was alive instead of as many people her final people regard making her final days miserable. >> think that's no , i'm sorry. >> sorry. michael, are you very quick out the traps there? i'm going back to bushra. go on. okay you know what? >> i'm just going choose >> i'm just going to choose not to entirely and i do to entirely agree. and i do accept that meghan and harry have done things that are have both done things that are astronomically this astronomically awful. but this is prince harry that we're talking about. and i'm always, for about rebuilding ties for one, about rebuilding ties of with your family. and of kinship with your family. and harry potentially is going to see that some of the things that he has said is absolutely wrong. but he a brother. he has a but he has a brother. he has a family in uk, and harry will family in the uk, and harry will always part this always be a part of this country. so i do understand the angst that the british public might towards them and might have towards them and let's leave meghan for

let's just leave meghan for aside moment and focus on aside a moment and focus on harry. meghan has harry. what meghan has done. i fully do not agree with, but i do want there to be a doorway and an opening for harry to come back and i think we be back and i think we should be welcoming him open arms welcoming him with open arms in this rather than this country rather than making him that's not him stay in america. that's not his home. >> i, i worry, michael. i do worry about harry. i worry that one day potentially in the not too distant future, he's to going wake up, possibly on his own and think , i haven't got my own and think, i haven't got my family anymore. i've snubbed my friends. i've obviously completely alienated the british press and vast swathes of the british population. she's taken me to the cleaners. i've got nothing. what have i done ? nothing. what have i done? >> indeed. well, on that point you make and also in the name of meghan's been mentioned by your very charming other guest. meghan's been mentioned by your very charming other guest . um, very charming other guest. um, if you look at that video, which you played , she never looks at you played, she never looks at him once . it's not once she him once. it's not once she studies the telephone very, very carefully. but if anybody is an expert in body language and look

at that, you will say there are problems there. but to return to your point, the first anniversary of her majesty's death, which of course was at balmoral, it's going to be a solemn occasion, but one that will be marked also with celebration of her life. and that's where the focus will be and should be. now, if this pair, which we're seeing now in all their loveliness turn up, what's the accent going to be upon?ifs what's the accent going to be upon? it's going to be upon the montecito to the california to that's what it's going to be upon. and if you remember, last yean upon. and if you remember, last year, even as her majesty died , year, even as her majesty died, the story was a moan from harry that he hadn't been given a red carpet treatment up to aberdeen and that he arrived after the death of his grandmother . so it death of his grandmother. so it was all about that rather than the end of a magnet . decent the end of a magnet. decent record breaking truly historic reign, which was celebrated as a great achievement. and was mourned around the world by

millions of people . millions of people. >> i suppose some people would say bushra, that let's be honest, if prince andrew is turning up to this thing, then you could argue that harry should be there as well . should be there as well. >> of course you can. if prince andrew's to going come, then harry certainly should be there . this is all about welcoming harry back. look, we know there might be issues presenting themselves between meghan and harry. we can see potentially that unfolding. so i want the british public to be opening their arms and saying, look, we are happy to come back. are happy for him to come back. we do want to be a part of we do want him to be a part of great don't want great britain and i don't want us snub him. and i certainly us to snub him. and i certainly don't think that that king charles has either. >> actually. well, i don't >> i do, actually. well, i don't want colours to the want to nail my colours to the mast on this just yet, but i can see can see a future where see i can see a future where harry does a bit of a mea culpa, comes back with his tail between his a little bit on his own his legs a little bit on his own and maybe the public goes, look, we mistakes. we've all we all make mistakes. we've all had bit like had a relationship a bit like this, was played had a relationship a bit like thison was played had a relationship a bit like thison netflix. was played had a relationship a bit like thison netflix. and was played had a relationship a bit like thison netflix. and michael, red had a relationship a bit like thison netflix. and michael, iti

out on netflix. and michael, it is on the netflix saga is it is on the netflix saga that i want get you on. why that i want to get you on. why would on a on a day to celebrate the life of someone who embodied all things great about britain. you all the kind of good you know, all the kind of good british values really . why would british values really. why would you introduce someone you want to introduce someone like that who's going to cause a massive storm up massive media storm turn up wearing a dior number? they've probably sponsored to wear probably been sponsored to wear possibly a netflix possibly with a netflix microphone on as well. i mean, good grief, there's no class in that, is there? no >> want to be on the show with you that day because we'll have some fun with that. but i'll tell you what i mean. like your other guest, i'm all in favour of all things bright and beautiful. and i would to beautiful. and i would like to see there. and beautiful. and i would like to swould there. and beautiful. and i would like to swould never there. and beautiful. and i would like to swould never say there. and beautiful. and i would like to swould never say never,e. and beautiful. and i would like to swould never say never, but|d i would never say never, but certain things are required for that come apart. got that to come apart. there's got to genuine about this to be genuine remorse about this because the that have because the things that have been are bordering on les been said are bordering on les majeste, being majeste, which means being disdainful, disrespectful , majeste, which means being disdainful, disrespectful, all edging on treason, about about, about the monarch and the family. this is serious stuff.

and there's never been it is unprecedented what was in the book spare sold more than any other biography ever written. so it has had an impact and made presumably quite a lot of money. these were very, very unkind things that didn't need to be said in every family there are disagreements . so show me one disagreements. so show me one that where there is not, but people don't, generally speaking , publish books and also appear in and you mentioned it, a six part. it's our long series six part. it's our long series six part series. meghan and harry or was it harry and meghan ? i don't was it harry and meghan? i don't know who was wearing the trousers that day, but certainly it went on and on. and the main theme of every episode was resentment and criticism of the family that gave him life, gave him privilege , gave him the life him privilege, gave him the life that he has today. >> yeah . okay. and bushra , i >> yeah. okay. and bushra, i suppose, at what point do they

have to just go, enough is enough?i have to just go, enough is enough? i mean , we all have enough? i mean, we all have family issues. everyone i think around the country has family issues. and in some ways i suppose the royal family mirrors that. suppose the royal family mirrors that . you know, there's a dodgy that. you know, there's a dodgy uncle for a start, and there's someone who the brothers aren't getting on, you know, this is kind everybody's issue now, kind of everybody's issue now, but i think as long as harry is in the mental state that he's currently just don't think currently in, i just don't think he's at an event he's right to be at an event thatis he's right to be at an event that is designed to be a very close family event. he has done his best to tear that family apart , but i believe that he apart, but i believe that he will be invited. >> i don't believe he has been snubbed, but unfortunately, i do also feel that he will make the decision not to come . and if he decision not to come. and if he does that, that will be the bad one on his heart. i feel like he should make the effort to come ultimately, that his ultimately, that was his grandmother is a joyous grandmother and this is a joyous occasion it's an occasion , occasion and it's an occasion, of course, because it's been one year he should a part of year and he should be a part of it. worry is that we are it. my worry is that we are seeing, especially with his book

and with the netflix, there's a lot going america and lot going on in america and i feel like meghan markle is the one pulling the strings at the moment. harry needs to grow a pair needs to understand pair and he needs to understand what's on and take control what's going on and take control of that life understand that of that life and understand that he give up the royal he cannot give up the royal family. that is prestigious family. that is a prestigious honour to be born in a family like that. and to leave it behind is crazy. >> i don't think he realised. i think i don't think he realised how he it. don't how good he had it. i don't think realised how good he think he realised how good he had because the machine and had it because the machine and the firm that royal the firm around that royal family he came to try to family that he came to try to blow the off was actually blow the doors off was actually very carefully looking after in many regards could have many regards what could have been image. been an easily tattered image. he go alone. they've he tries to go it alone. they've had years at it now. had a couple of years at it now. absolutely. everybody hates them. away them. everyone's running away from all from them commercially. all right. they've bit of right. they've made a bit of money meantime. but money in the meantime. but i mean, that's really it. mean, that's not really it. they're by they're being shunned by everybody. his faith in everybody. he's put his faith in a who was known for a woman who was best known for having b—list role in suits. having a b—list role in suits. i mean, if that's the barometer, then good grief. but look, both of you, thank very, very of you, thank you very, very much. to have you both on

much. great to have you both on the stuff. michael the show. good stuff. michael cole, commentator, bushra cole, royal commentator, bushra sheikh, political commentator. cole, royal commentator, bushra sheii

channel still to come this hour , you're still to come this hour, you're going to enjoy this migration loopholes. well, actually illegal migration loopholes. is this the future of britain under the labour party ? the labour the labour party? the labour party is standing by a local councillor who was handing out advice on tiktok on how to basically stay in the uk if you're an illegal immigrant. and former us president donald trump has pleaded not guilty to four charges that he led a wide ranging conspiracy, built on lies to overturn the 2020 election. so a couple of big things to get stuck into there. but first, the de—banking saga

continues . news. but now they're continues. news. but now they're coming or they're coming for the british countryside. this lot, according to the telegraph , a according to the telegraph, a third of shooting businesses have had their accounts suddenly closed down. now, look, i've neverin closed down. now, look, i've never in my life had a fervent desire to pick up a rifle and shoot the head off of pheasant. ihave shoot the head off of pheasant. i have never , ever felt the need i have never, ever felt the need one morning to wake up, get on a horse and hunt a fox. that's just me personally. however, i do think that if people want to do think that if people want to do that and it is legal, not the fox hunting bit anymore, to be fair, then should be fair, then they should be allowed do it. and allowed to do it. and i understand of people understand for a lot of people thatis understand for a lot of people that is a hobby and crucially, it is legal. why would banks it is legal. so why would banks shut them down? they think that it's bank's values. it's against the bank's values. this country side pursuit. this is a country side pursuit. it's rural pursuit. this comes it's a rural pursuit. this comes after financial services firm some up banned actual drag hunts from taking payments as well. so, you know, this is, again , so, you know, this is, again, another legal activity. so robert goodwill, the tory chairman of the environment committee, and a former defra

minister, has accused banks of trying to cancel the countryside. well joining me now, very pleased to say is farmer and former conservative mp neil parish. neil ross , rural mp neil parish. neil ross, rural british country side pursuits should not be cancelled by snivelling metropolitan liberal elites in the high city towers of london, should they ? of london, should they? >> no, patrick, i mean, i think the banks should get back to what they're there for. >> look after their clients either lend money or look after those with money and process the accounts. i mean, the idea that, you know, shooting and conservation action go together. >> many of the shoots have, you know, good wildlife. >> they also have nature conservation areas and wildflower areas. so, you know, the whole thing works quite neatly together . and as you neatly together. and as you quite rightly say, not everybody wants to shoot, but it is quite legal to do it. >> and it's part of countryside activity. >> and i just don't see why the banks think that they can be

judge and jury over absolutely everything that we're doing, not only in the countryside but everywhere else. >> and what earth are they playing at? >> you know, i mean, we live in a society now where, you know, big it's not perhaps government altogether, big brother is altogether, but big brother is appearing and now saying, you know, thou shalt not do that. >> and i think really, it's time the banks back to dealing the banks went back to dealing with people looking our with people looking after our accounts and actually not being so judgemental. i mean, why are they right? and why is the countryside wrong? it's not, you see. no, no . as you say, in a see. no, no. as you say, in a legal form . legal form. >> and one of the key reasons, even if people are watching this now, are thinking , well, i don't now, are thinking, well, i don't really care if a shooting is debunked , i would suspect that debunked, i would suspect that you would care singularly on the premise that something perfectly legal should not be debunked . legal should not be debunked. this is perfectly legal and it won't just end up being shooting. we are moving towards an increasingly re eco and vegan

world. and so what happens is when banks go , i don't like the when banks go, i don't like the fact that your business is sent around the production of lambs and then the slaughter of lambs or cattle. et cetera. we don't think it's ethical. and then they shut them down. so then we just lose farms. >> yeah. patrick, you see me and i'm a beef farmer, and i graze them on grass, and i have a sort of very good conservation. so it's all very good way of it's all a very good way of farming . it's all a very good way of farming. but, you it's all a very good way of farming . but, you know, who is farming. but, you know, who is it decide is what should it that decide is what should what is good , what is bad. what is good, what is bad. >> and i really don't think it's the bank's job. >> for goodness sake, get on and do their own business. i mean, over the years, i mean, the banks haven't exactly covered themselves glory. what themselves in glory. what were themselves in glory. what were the crisis? you know, the banking crisis? you know, the banking crisis? you know, the old adage , they offer the old adage, they will offer you umbrella when the sun is you an umbrella when the sun is shining and take it away when it's raining because over the years of farming business, years of my farming business, you you've had trouble you know, you've had trouble getting most getting credit when you most needed least need needed it, when you least need it, give you credit. so, it, they'll give you credit. so, i mean, why don't the banks go

back making sure that we can back to making sure that we can actually money and carry actually get our money and carry on our businesses? because, i mean, only just about mean, it's not only just about whether agree with shooting whether you agree with shooting or you there's a lot of or not. you see there's a lot of livelihoods, lot livelihoods, a lot of gamekeepers , a lot people, gamekeepers, a lot of people, a lot of money is put into the countryside by those that come down and shoot , whether, you down and shoot, whether, you know, people agree with it or not. and so you wouldn't really want to take that away from the countryside and i think provide that properly, legally that it's done properly, legally , humanely. and actually, you know, with nature conservation, then for goodness sake, it's not for the banks to make this decision. i don't go around saying whether city of saying whether the city of london is behaving rightly. have they shut down the wrong businesses ? have they taken away businesses? have they taken away money from people bad money from people by bad practise and where are the banks going to stop ? are they you going to stop? are they you know, they they haven't really put own house in order, put their own house in order, let alone deciding on all the rest of the world, and especially the countryside, because we are a people that we get on with our lives. we enjoy

last he said he's had a last night he said he's had a very good day. good for him. the former us president believes his legal woes are actually helping him politically. fact, to be him politically. in fact, to be honest that. honest, he's right about that. they are helping him politically. claimed he politically. he's claimed he needs one more indictment to secure the election. after being arraigned last night. this is this is trump, isn't it? this is the big guy all over coming out swinging. that guy, nigel once said on stage, he's the most resilient and brave man ever. you know , he certainly got broad you know, he certainly got broad shoulders. he appeared before a judge to face four criminal charges relating to the 2020 election result . joining me now election result. joining me now is former nevada republican party chairwoman is amy tarkanian. thank you very much, amy. great to have you on the show. look donald trump is pleading not guilty. he's not going down without a fight. but the reality is, even if he is in a prison cell, he could still be the next president, couldn't he? >> that is correct, because there currently is no law the there currently is no law on the books otherwise. is books saying otherwise. this is totally something new that we're

having delve into . and i having to delve into. and i think the fact that his numbers do continue to grow exponentially with each indictment , exponentially with each indictment, his statement is correct. he's one indictment away from winning the nomination. and as we speak today, there's actually a grand jury today, there's actually a grand jury in the state of georgia thatis jury in the state of georgia that is meeting for his possibly fourth indictment. that's to come. and for that's the phone call that he made to the georgia secretary of state, claiming that he wanted him to find more votes. and so this this whole charade, this whole circus is so exhausting . but it's not over. exhausting. but it's not over. it's not even close to being over now , he would say this is over now, he would say this is an absolutely monument witch hunt, of course, against himself thatis hunt, of course, against himself that is politically motivated covid. >> and i think he probably would point as well to a couple of other things, like what's going on with joe and hunter biden ? on with joe and hunter biden? you know, why is that so quiet when it comes to some of the allegations floating around there and then meanwhile here

we've got something based around whether or not donald trump was trying to whip up a an insurrection. and by the way , insurrection. and by the way, quite a few of those people at that capitol hill so—called riot. i mean, if you see the cctv from inside the riot there, a lot of it looks like they might have been on a guided toun >> yeah, in some of the clips. yes, i would agree. now, you know, unfortunately , here in the know, unfortunately, here in the state of nevada, we did have to deal with some of the repercussions, though, of president trump's bullying and misbehaviour because it trickled down to the state party leadership where we are one of seven states that actually produced fake electors and told the citizens that there was system fraud and there was nothing found in court. so there is a problem when you continue pushing certain rhetoric to the point where we also had to make it a felony in our last

legislative session to harass election and poll workers because donald trump has done such an excellent job at playing the victim and making sure that his followers also feel like they are victims and so you have a lot of people who are angry, frustrated and being misguided . frustrated and being misguided. >> you know what i care about here? because, look, we are we are britain's news channel. my primary focus is just naturally as well as professionally is obviously on what affects britain. but i look at this story on trump, and i think it affects us on a couple of grounds over here. firstly trump was a total ally of us in a way that joe biden simply isn't in a way that a lot of democrats aren't. and that should be a concern for us here at britain as we try to navigate an increasingly tumultuous world. we should want the most powerful allies that we can get. and trump that completely. trump was that completely. i also think that a strong america is good for the current world order that we have at the

moment. and i look at joe biden, i refuse to believe that he's actually in charge . i don't see actually in charge. i don't see how he can be kamala harris. i mean , i want whatever she's on, mean, i want whatever she's on, to be honest with you. and then and then it was like a great like a party, isn't it? but then also, it's just not good. generally, if trump is going through all of these, is this is this the best america's got ? you this the best america's got? you know , no, it's not. know, no, it's not. >> and fortunately, we're in a lose lose situation because of everything you just listed . and everything you just listed. and you mentioned the fact that the biden family is also going under investigation dealing with their business in china. you've got hunter's laptop . i mean, there hunter's laptop. i mean, there are so many different terrible situations that are floating around out there . there are around out there. there are opfions around out there. there are options at this point are terrible . and so, you know, terrible. and so, you know, could we have a better option ? could we have a better option? yes, i think we have some wonderful other possible candidates. but unfortunately,

donald trump is the king of pr , donald trump is the king of pr, he's the king of manipulation . he's the king of manipulation. he's the king of manipulation. he knows how to manoeuvre . he he knows how to manoeuvre. he knows how to work a room. he knows how to work a room. he knows how to pull on heartstrings . and then you have heartstrings. and then you have president biden, who has the mainstream media to clean up after his his multiple gaffes. i mean, it's unfortunate and it's very sad that we're having to watch an individual fall apart before our very eyes. and so, you know , i think we're really you know, i think we're really in a in a terrible situation over here. >> well, look, amy, good luck with it, i must say. and thank you very, very much for coming on and talking to me. i must say, it wonderful where say, it looks wonderful where you there nevada. you've you are there in nevada. you've done for the done a great advert for the tourist board of nevada. so thank very, very amy thank you very, very much. amy tarkanian, former nevada tarkanian, who's a former nevada republican party chair woman. i'm to delve into the i'm going to delve into the inbox now because a lot of emails heck of a lot of emails emails a heck of a lot of emails over story. i covered a little over a story. i covered a little bit earlier on, which is about it's the de—banking stuff, but it's the de—banking stuff, but it's rural pursuits, it's about the rural pursuits, british countryside activities , british countryside activities,

things like shooting, so, so gunshot ups are being debunked. it's perfectly legal. it is perfectly legal . whether or not perfectly legal. whether or not you've ever wanted to go pheasant or grouse shooting or whatever , i haven't, but it's whatever, i haven't, but it's something that a lot of people will really do and there's nothing stopping them doing it. hi, patrick. are the banks the new police or is banking woke ? new police or is banking woke? and maybe some rules from the eu are getting involved this is from from parker. thank you very much. this is one from rob. i don't like rainbows. so will i be debunked now? i don't think that we should have very different pride events. will i be banked? i think that maybe we should have a white history month. will i be banks and sadly, rob my answer to you on thatis sadly, rob my answer to you on that is possibly yes. sadly, rob my answer to you on that is possibly yes . possibly that is possibly yes. possibly because none of the things that you said there are illegal. all none of those are particularly niche views. if you take what you're saying at face value, which is essentially that you think that things like the big kind of pride diversity agenda

is possibly gone a little bit too and maybe you don't too far and maybe you don't necessarily agree with things like theory, those like critical race theory, those are views. those are are common views. those are common views. and if you express those on social media, those things on social media, will debunked ? well, yes. will you be debunked? well, yes. now, the banks have now, maybe the banks have absolutely no right to look at rural communities and rural culture from very often, very wealthy metropolitan areas with different values, quite possibly dare i say it as well, people not even coming originally from this country and try to shut those down. i think that eisner front, who well, our british way of life. but is that really actually part of what is going on look is this a glimpse on here? look is this a glimpse now, though , moving on into our now, though, moving on into our future under labour a labour councillor has been caught on tiktok giving advice on loopholes for illegal migrants and the labour party has stood by her. many people have suspected for a long time that if there's a labour government that there will be some kind of illegal migrant migrants. amnesty. well, maybe now this is

the reality of it. patrick christys on gb news, britain's news .

channel we'll be asking shortly whether it's fair or too harsh that harry and meghan have been snubbed from attending a commemoration for our late queen by king charles and not diverse enough. despite sheep

outnumbering people by 500,000. well apparently a diversity officer is going to be sent to the falkland islands to try to make sure there aren't any issues when it comes to race relations over there. the population, by the way, is just over 3500 people. and i mean, shock, horror, that they are almost entirely white. but hey, there you go. 43 grand a year if you're that way inclined. but the labour party has controversy stood by one of its councillors who posted videos on tiktok instructing illegal immigrants on how to stay in britain. so in the videos, irim ali advises people in the uk illegally. so yeah, just illegal immigrants to use human rights loopholes to avoid deportation . even as she avoid deportation. even as she shows off gifts that her clients have given her to say thank you. however, despite calls to sack , however, despite calls to sack, the labour party has only given her a dressing down. shall we have a little look at this video

? >> 7- >> hi, gum ? >> hi, listeners. i'm 7 >> hi, listeners. i'm ali here, immigration solicitor here. are you in the uk without a valid visa ? are you illegal or have visa? are you illegal or have you overstayed your visa? do not fear irum ali is here to help you regularise your visa in the uk and submit an application to the home office based on your human rights. it is extremely important to make sure you become legal in the uk. there is an extremely hostile environment meant for overstayers here, so you must make sure that you can submit an application to the home office, become legal and be en route to indefinite leave to remain so, contact me. let's have that conversation and work out what needs to be done to get your stay here in the uk . thus your stay here in the uk. thus that cannot be legal, can it ?

that cannot be legal, can it? >> so that is the labour council erramalli who sits on newcastle city council . right, saying if city council. right, saying if you are here illegally i will help you to game the system in a roundabout way and the labour party have stood by her which i find fascinating because people have wondered, haven't they, what the future of a labour party would mean for illegal immigration? people have speculated . did that really just speculated. did that really just mean that we have some kind of amnesty or that we let everybody in? well, maybe we then. yeah. to discuss this. who else? we have a stall of the show is immigration lawyer hardeep singh. bongo job. thank you very, very much. that all seems a bit fruity. that video, to be honest. i mean, is that kosher? yeah, it's technically kosher because she hasn't said she's going to help circumnavigate the rules. >> what she's saying is what the home office says every day, that if you're here illegally , either if you're here illegally, either put an application in or go home. and what she has missed

out is to say that, hold on, we'll have to check first to see if you're eligible to stay here and then we'll put an application because not everyone here here illegally is here who's here illegally is eligible to make an application or a visa . so it's a type of or get a visa. so it's a type of an advert almost for her services , but technically it's services, but technically it's not anything that she said there. it isn't technically wrong because it's almost like saying, have you been charged for murder ? i can defend you. for murder? i can defend you. yeah, it doesn't say i will 100% help you get you get you off or she doesn't say 100% help you get a visa . so it's almost like get a visa. so it's almost like an advert that's why i suppose she's got the dressing down the thing important though, thing that is important though, is is a person who's is if she is a person who's representing a government at any level, whether it's local government whether it's a government or whether it's a central government, she central government, then she should consider that is should consider whether that is appropriate and whether , you appropriate and whether, you know, like an mp, there are many mps who are solicitors, but you don't hear many saying, well, okay, i'm going to go and defend a murderer or going help a murderer or i'm going to help you visa. if you haven't you get a visa. if you haven't

got one, going to help got one, or i'm going to help you. know, if you've been you. you know, if you've been sacked, i'm going to help you sue your employer. so have to sue your employer. so we have to understand solicitors are understand that solicitors are a part government, but maybe part of government, but maybe she it she could have phrased it better. she's got the better. hence she's got the dressing not dressing down and not the sacking perhaps were lot sacking that perhaps were a lot of thinking that she of people thinking that she might got. yeah just might have got. yeah i just wonder not it ties wonder whether or not it ties into a concern that a lot of people have at the moment. >> was this thing >> there was this thing operation with the which operation with the mail which didn't some quite didn't appear to show some quite fruity they're fruity characters. they're essentially it essentially accepting cash. it was wrong. yeah, yeah. i mean, it's wrong, it's completely wrong, right? i mean, in, cash in mean, take like cash in, cash in hand to say get you a fake hand to say i'll get you a fake doctor's note. say, i mean, doctor's note. i'll say, i mean, it that was proper rogue it was that was proper rogue stuff. i mean, enjoyed stuff. i mean, i enjoyed watching it was rogue watching it, but it was rogue stuff. and you look at this stuff. and. and you look at this now and you wonder whether or not there's a cottage industry of do of lawyers and solicitors who do look at what's going on with our immigration think, immigration system and think, i can load of money out of can make a load of money out of this . this. >> e- e it's not new. e— e it's not new. so this >> well, it's not new. so this sort of stuff, you get a rogue lawyer. 2000, remember lawyer. since 2000, i remember in the year 2000 there was a the independent a massive independent did a massive

investigation a firm. and investigation on a firm. and they were they were actually changing so changing nationalities. so people from kenya were coming over and they were saying, well, hold we've a guy who can hold on, we've got a guy who can change fingerprints now change your fingerprints and now you're and here's you're from rwanda, and here's a back and so that was a back story. and so that was a big, um , sort of sting. then big, um, sort of sting. then there were a lot of pakistan omanis who were being told to become afghanis, and the home office to employ office had to employ interpreters judge the interpreters to judge the dialect. nothing in dialect. so it's nothing new in any industry . you're going to any industry. you're going to get people and they've get rogue people and they've been outed. and what key is been outed. and what the key is that the government should crack down make sure these people down and make sure these people aren't allowed to practise again, because most often these people and then people get suspended and then they up a firm in another they open up a firm in another name or start working with someone and just sort of someone and just operate sort of outside . so this needs outside the rules. so this needs to cracked down by the to be cracked down by the government. definitely. i would say. >> thank you very much as ever. great to have you back on the show. hardeep singh bongo, immigration lawyer. just immigration lawyer. and i just think the optics of that are terrible. got a serving terrible. you've got a serving labour party councillor there basically touting for business

if you are here illegally in the uk, then contact me. i might be able to help you with your your application. i would argue that's really not a great look for the labour party. but got a load of this, a little funny one to finish on. what about this for woke diversity gone the for woke diversity gone mad? the search underway for a job search is underway for a job vacancy in the falkland islands. get this, they want an expert on equality and diversity. it comes with a £43,000 salary. but what use is a diversity officer for on an island where sheep outnumber residents by around . outnumber residents by around. 500,000 british overseas territory in the south atlantic 7 territory in the south atlantic ? this is the falklands is home to just 3662 people, a number thatis to just 3662 people, a number that is tiny in comparison to the flock of sheep approx . 1 the flock of sheep approx. 1 million penguins are in the area as well there. sadly, this job is not a joke genuinely. i mean, have we really got to the point where the focus islands are now

racist ? well, the falklands, racist? well, the falklands, there's not enough diversity in there's not enough diversity in the falklands as some people were making the point that perhaps we could increase the diversity in the falklands by using it as a detention centre for what's been going on in the channel. the argentinians, of course, quite famously did try to make the falklands an even more set of islands, and more diverse set of islands, and that necessarily that that didn't necessarily end that well but yes, for well for them. but yes, for £43,000 you can get yourself a job on the falklands talking to white people about how they're too wow. coming too white. wow. coming up, i speak to birmingham based speak to a birmingham based gunmaker been villainized gunmaker who's been villainized by are we raising by the banks. are we raising a generation snowflakes as well generation of snowflakes as well 7 generation of snowflakes as well ? british well ? because british scouts? well we're calling mummy and daddy to come and pick from come and pick them up from a scout event. patrick christys on gb britain's news channel. gb news, britain's news channel. >> temperature's rising . >> the temperature's rising. boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. weather on. gb news. >> hi there. it's aidan magee here from the met office. with the gb news forecast, drier and warmer weather is on the way for later next week. more on that in

we're only coming if this and you start adding conditions onto it. haven't they shown complete and utter disdain and disrespect for family for the for the royal family for the last years? i mean, harry last few years? i mean, harry couldn't even be bothered to travel with other relatives travel with his other relatives to see queen to actually see the queen immediately she died immediately just before she died on that day. then we had the combination jets in jets combination harry jets in jets out. look, why bother with them anymore? joining me now is kinsey schofield , the fabulous kinsey schofield, the fabulous kinsey schofield, the fabulous kinsey showbiz kinsey schofield showbiz reporter, fan favourite here on gb news. kinsey, great stuff. thank very , very much. and thank you very, very much. and well, happy birthday. meghan markle first and foremost, i suppose , and the birthday suppose, and the birthday present she's received from king charles snubbing . charles is a snubbing. >> right. i'm sure she's >> that's right. i'm sure she's quite hostile that these headunes quite hostile that these headlines are, you know overshadowing her big 42. she stepped out last night in montecito. it was the first time we'd seen her in action in quite some time in real life. not some very generic video that they post on social media. but, pat, i think that this is what royal watchers want. i don't think

royal watchers want harry and meghan near the family as they remember queen elizabeth. these are two individuals that made the last few years of her life a living hell. and from what we understand with giles brandreth's is that the brandreth's book is that the last few years, queen elizabeth, you know, could quite possibly have been in a lot of pain, suffering from blood cancer. and then got harry and meghan then you've got harry and meghan lobbing grenades at the family. and while slandering them on international television , international television, hijacking queen elizabeth's , you hijacking queen elizabeth's, you know, private nickname for their daughter. it's all just very bizarre now. >> it is, indeed. and i think that charles, charles and william would not have wanted on that commemoration of our greatest ever ruling monarch's death to have had that overshadowed by the non stop tabloid headlines and non—stop mystery surrounding whether or not harry and meghan are to going turn up that day will be

difficult enough as it is without doubt, introducing some of the people who were just going to make it worse. selfishly >> oh, that's a great point. but i also think that harry and meghan are incredibly toxic and they have betrayed the royal family and they can't be trusted. i don't know if you remember harry's telegraph interview where said that interview where he said that certain parts of the book didn't make the cut because they were so towards his father and brother. that's concerning that. that's information that could inevitably come out. additionally, meghan telling the cut magazine that she never signed an nda. cut magazine that she never signed an nda . i mean, that's signed an nda. i mean, that's almost a bit of a threat. you know, i still have information that i know, i still have information thati can know, i still have information that i can share. so i think that i can share. so i think that the family is still very wary of harry and meghan because they don't trust these individual tales. >> of course, the constant >> no, of course, the constant threat it is no way to treat your family at all. and can i also just add as well, what harm was really done to them this is the thing. what harm has really

happened to those two people as a result of being in and around the royal family to warrant all of this right now? but you said , though, kinsey, that meghan was spotted out and about celebrating her birthday with harry. that's been quite an unusual appearance recently, hasn't it? rumours have been circulating about their marriage , which patrick, it's, you know, classic hollywood to me . classic hollywood to me. >> this is my opinion, a classic hollywood staged photo opportunity where you don't like the headlines. so you thrust yourself out there in the real world to distract from the fact that you don't like the headunes that you don't like the headlines that have been swirling. are they happily ever after? i we hope but i after? i mean, we hope so. but i certainly think that we are seeing more of them today because they don't like the fact that it's being that that it's being reported that things hunky dory at home. >> but where is all of that coming from? right. seriously, where it all from that where is it all coming from that things dory at things aren't hunky dory at home? are these reliable home? i mean, are these reliable sources is just the fact sources? is this just the fact that they haven't that maybe they haven't been seen a little

seen together for a little while? what's caused all while? what's what's caused all of this ? of this? >> emu emma p- e i do think if you >> i mean, i do think if you watch their body language in the latest video that was released, even their body language has changed. harry tries to look into meghan's eyes. meghan doesn't make eye contact with him . do you remember when we him. do you remember when we would see them in public and how they were always touching one another? always clinging to one another? always clinging to one another? complained another? i never complained about it. i don't have an issue with it, but it's their their body dramatically body language is dramatically different. know, in different. and, you know, in montecito, is staying montecito, meghan is staying standing four feet away from prince almost as if the prince harry, almost as if the quy's prince harry, almost as if the guy's got catch a ride with guy's got to catch a ride with somebody don't somebody else. like you don't even that they're even notice that they're together far together because she's so far ahead him. so i think that ahead of him. so i think that it's observation. it's public observation. it's whispers about town, one of the places that i see these rumours is hollywood like industry is a hollywood like industry blog called crazy days and nights . net blog called crazy days and nights. net radar online , nights. net radar online, obviously a tabloid here in the states are one of the people that have circulated that rumour. but i just think where there's smoke, there's fire. and you , obviously we don't you know, obviously we don't wish anything negative upon

them, but they're going in two separate directions . harry going separate directions. harry going to singapore next week . meghan to singapore next week. meghan markle apparently relaunching her instagram and wanting to take over hollywood. how long can you be on these professional paths? so separately, when you started as such united unit started as such a united unit and you and make that work? >> well, especially when we saw harry darting off from the king's coronation because he had to go back and make his child's birthday party that was the line, wasn't it? which implies to me either a you are such a close knit family that you can't be away and that you want to be present for a birthday no matter what. so that's taking that at face value as opposed to the other side of it is hang on a minute. what's going on at home where your wife would say to you , i'm going to get very angry if you don't leave your father's coronation immediately and come back home now and celebrate the birthday. and then since then, we are seeing them both going on these different paths. i mean,

who's looking after the kids when all of this is happening? for goodness sake? it just doesn't all add up. kinsey and there's a new people magazine article out here in the states that talks about the spotify deal blowing up and harry and meghan complaining that they weren't prepared, they weren't given the lay the land. given the lay of the land. >> there was too much red tape. patrick it makes me scream because it's just 2.0. there was no one to help me within the royal have any royal family i didn't have any guidance the royal family guidance within the royal family at what point these two at what point did these two individuals take a look in the mirror and start taking responsibility for everything that doesn't out? their that doesn't work out? their failures versus pointing the finger at somebody else ? and it finger at somebody else? and it makes wonder if this makes you wonder if at this point in time, perhaps they're pointing the finger at each other. >> you know what? i think didn't play >> you know what? i think didn't play well king charles. he's play well for king charles. he's had difficult job play well for king charles. he's ha

family died when family rolled over and died when it ngozi fulani bannau it came to ngozi fulani bannau or marlene hadley, as i believe she is actually called the lady who basically said that lady susan hussey was essentially treating her in a racist way. there was a big apology about all a big we've got all of this and a big we've got all of this and a big we've got a row back on everything and that play well with a lot that didn't play well with a lot of royalists in this country. we just thought, no, i'm sorry. that's you're that's that's bonkers. you're giving there was olive giving in. then there was olive branch branch branch after olive branch after olive harry meghan olive branch to harry and meghan that a point that i think after a point stopped well, now now, stopped playing. well, now now, if this really the case, if this really is the case, which that, look, we're not which is that, look, we're not even going to ask, we're not even going to ask, we're not even going to ask, we're not even going talk about even going to talk to you about whether you want to come whether or not you want to come to commemorate one year to help commemorate the one year anniversary our queen's death anniversary of our queen's death that think actually play that i think will actually play very king charles in very well for king charles in the polls, because i the opinion polls, because i think we've enough of harry think we've had enough of harry and it's quite nice and meghan, and it's quite nice to he probably has as to know that he probably has as well . well. >> e'— e backbone. and >> it shows backbone. and i think a lot of people will be relieved to see that. absolutely. it says, you know, you're not going to disrespect our a private our family. this is a private time. we're going to honour one

of the greatest in of the greatest monarchs in history. you, because history. me without you, because as you're not one of us and you've chosen that path yourself, not only that, but you continue to try to bring the monarchy and our family down with your with whatever interview they're doing today or tomorrow. so i think you're absolutely right. it shows backbone. i think that's it. >> it does show a little bit of courage. it does show a bit of backbone and king charles, i think, has to prioritise william in all of this. william is next in all of this. william is next in line to the throne. william will this country will be leading this country through difficult times through whatever difficult times there the future. william there are in the future. william has, shown lot of has, you know, shown a lot of resolve lot character resolve and a lot of character been through, by the way, almost exactly the same life experiences as prince harry, almost exactly the same life experiences, and not turned out anything like guy and anything like that guy and clearly wants to do his best for the country and kept his mouth shut, stood by his family through the prince andrew saga , through the prince andrew saga, through the prince andrew saga, through the prince andrew saga, through the harry and meghan saga , through everything else. saga, through everything else. and if william says, look, i am

i'm sick and tired of harry, he's ditched the family dirt. he's traitor. i don't want him he's a traitor. i don't want him anywhere near us. then i think charles has to draw a line in the sand there and say, you know what? it's not nice to have favourites as a dad, but i've got favourite now. but there got a favourite now. but there we kinsley thank you very we go. kinsley thank you very much. great to have on much. great to have you on the show as ever. looking as radiant as always. kinsey schofield, our showbiz just as always. kinsey schofield, our showlto just as always. kinsey schofield, our showlto delve just as always. kinsey schofield, our showlto delve in just as always. kinsey schofield, our showlto delve in now just as always. kinsey schofield, our showlto delve in now to jst as always. kinsey schofield, our showlto delve in now to the going to delve in now to the inbox quickly. this has been absolutely gb absolutely popping off in our gb views and gbnews.com is the inbox. i can't think inbox. i can't help but think that starting to look, that harry is starting to look, look dress like a mad look and dress like a mad professor while meghan looks every hollywood star. every bit the hollywood star. that's from peter. thank you very yeah, he looks very much, peter. yeah, he looks a bit tune i think a little bit tune i think sometimes doesn't why a sometimes doesn't see why does a young english prince get mixed up with an older actress , says up with an older actress, says anthony. well, to be honest with you, that is a story as old as time itself, isn't it? really? i think. there we go. a lot of this coming in now as to whether or not you think that actually king charles was indeed right to actually for the actually ditch them for the queen's commemorative service .

queen's commemorative service. there's more on our website, though. gbnews.com is the fastest growing national news site country. the big site in the country. all the big analysis, big opinion, latest breaking but still breaking news as well. but still to we will take a look at to come, we will take a look at the councillor was the labour councillor who was offered to help keep illegal migrants in the uk and the fact that the labour party have backed her plus are we raising a generation of snowflakes ? generation of snowflakes? british scouts are being evacuated from a jamboree . evacuated from a jamboree. hundreds have fallen sick in a heat wave. apparently they called up mummy and daddy and scouts who i think are supposed to look after themselves. well, they've not been doing, have they? so they've had to be evacuated put in hotels and evacuated and put in hotels and the nhs gone private. not the nhs has gone private. not before time. well we'll be revealing all on that very shortly. patrick christys on gb news,

channel in just a moment. labour is standing by a tik tok councillor who gave leave advice on how illegal immigrants can stay in britain . plus, are we raising britain. plus, are we raising a generation of complete and utter snowflake ? thousands of british snowflake? thousands of british scouts have been evacuated from a jamboree because apparently they couldn't deal with the heat and there wasn't enough water for them. okay, fair enough. i think maybe they were a bit too quick to call mummy. they've been fund raising now for ages, actually. and then their parents said that the kids thought they were die. but as we were going to die. but as we discussed the labour discussed earlier, the labour party controversially backed

party has controversially backed one councillors. yes, one of its councillors. yes, that's been that's right, who's been posting tick videos in the videos. tick tock videos in the videos. newcastle city councillor irim ali advises people in the uk illegally so illegal migrants overstayed as to use human rights loopholes to avoid deportation . she's and shows off deportation. she's and shows off some gifts that her clients have given to her. however, despite calls to sack the labour party has given her a slap on the wrist. i mean, it's remarkable, really. i'm hoping that we might be able to play a clip of that video in just a second. but joining me now is international human lawyer david haig. human rights lawyer david haig. david, yeah, we will david, thank you. yeah, we will show a clip of that in just a moment's time. but i mean, it is remarkable, though, we remarkable, though, that we could somebody been could have somebody who's been elected in this elected to local office in this country national country representing a national party well power party who may well be in power at next election , just at the next election, just seemingly advising illegal immigrants and overstayers as how stay in the country. it how to stay in the country. it seems weird and yeah, absolutely i >>i -- >> i saw your earlier guest that said you know, i've seen the video and take technically there

doesn't appear to be any breaches of laws. >> but this individual, you know, she's she's a solicitor. there are very strict regulations governing advertising solicitors. advertising by solicitors. >> also a councillor and >> she's also a councillor and there's a code of conduct regulations for a councillor and obviously also as a as a labour candidate. >> so think , you know, it's >> so i think, you know, it's not but it certainly not illegal, but it certainly shows very poor judgement not illegal, but it certainly shows very poorjudgement at shows very poor judgement at best. >> and the fact that she's now received down and the received a dressing down and the video removed, i think video has been removed, i think shows that the actual feelings of behind that. of the people behind that. >> look, i tell you what, >> yeah, look, i tell you what, i'm just going to everyone >> yeah, look, i tell you what, |'iclip st going to everyone >> yeah, look, i tell you what, i'iclipst yiting to everyone >> yeah, look, i tell you what, |'iclip st tit nowo everyone >> yeah, look, i tell you what, i'iclipst it now again. everyone >> yeah, look, i tell you what, i'iclipst it now again. soeryone >> yeah, look, i tell you what, i'iclipst it now again. so this e a clip of it now again. so this is the labour councillor in question and just see what, see is the labour councillor in questpeople just see what, see is the labour councillor in questpeople make ;ee what, see is the labour councillor in questpeople make of what, see is the labour councillor in questpeople make of thist, see is the labour councillor in questpeople make of this ande what people make of this and we'll the back of it. we'll be out off the back of it. david hi, listeners irum ali here immigration solicitor are you in the uk without a valid visa ? visa? >> are you illegal or have you overstayed your visa? do not fear irum ali is here to help you regularise your visa in the uk and submit an application to

the home office based on your human rights. it is extremely important to make sure you become legal in the uk. there is an extreme , firmly hostile an extreme, firmly hostile environment for overstayers here, so you must make sure that you can submit an application to the home office, become legal and be en route to indefinite leave to remain so , contact me. leave to remain so, contact me. let's have that conversation and work out what needs to be done to get your stay here in the uk i >> -- >> can you imagine breaking into her house? right. sitting there and her saying, look, there's an incredibly hostile environment incredibly hostile environment in this house at the moment. so anybody who breaks in here and trespasses illegal, but if you contact your local solicitor , contact your local solicitor, then we might be able to make sure that you can stay in my spare room. it beggars belief. yeah it's uncomfortable watching it as you probably saw from my facial expression just then. >> but you know, it's uncomfortable watching it from

from legal perspective, from from a legal perspective, but know, i'm a local but also, you know, i'm a local councillor down here as well. but you know, you did something that the industry that in the legal industry you've very long time. you've had for a very long time. we've all heard of ambulance chasers and you the chasers and you know, the conservative chaos conservative complete chaos in immigration. you're seeing immigration. you're now seeing illegal boat chasers and illegal migrant boat chasers and you know, that's going to continue of continue because of opportunities provided opportunities are being provided by chaos that you've got in by the chaos that you've got in the immigration system at the moment. >> talk bit about that, >> talk to me a bit about that, because this comes straight off the back, straight off back the back, straight off the back of of solicitors of a load of solicitors accepting cash hand payments accepting cash in hand payments to complete lie about fake human rights abuses, fake mental health issues, etcetera. in order to get people to gain more asylum system. and this now is just another example of a lawyer. so brazen that they get their phone out, lawyer. so brazen that they get their phone out , they sit in their phone out, they sit in their phone out, they sit in their car and they record a video asking are you illegal in the uk ? and then offering advice the uk? and then offering advice for it . it really does make it for it. it really does make it look as though a lot of lawyers , not yourself, of course, but a lot of lawyers recognise that they can cash in on our

immigration system at the moment i >>i -- >> i think that's something that currently exists and you know it always exists. >> i mean, when i was a trainee lawyer, i remember doing a trainee spot in in immigration then and that's going back some time. and there were there were lots of scams even lots and lots of scams even then. you know, that's then. and, you know, that's something that you're always going you've always, going to have and you've always, you know, in any profession, but particularly in this one. and there going to be there are always going to be unscrupulous will there are always going to be uns caught,|s will there are always going to be uns caught, some will there are always going to be uns caught, some won't. will there are always going to be uns caught, some won't. and vill there are always going to be uns caught, some won't. and you get caught, some won't. and you know, in the case of this lady, you know, it's it seems technically to be in accordance with the law. but then, you know, i was looking i was reading rules on reading earlier on the rules on on on advertising. and you know, if seen to be actually if it can be seen to be actually direct targeted adverts rising to a group of people , it may be to a group of people, it may be that it's not in accordance with the rules in relation to advertising it advertising solicitors, but it certainly unpalatable. certainly is unpalatable. i think, and particularly from a sitting labour councillor. but we're going to see more of that, i'm sure what we are. >> and now you've led me perfectly to on my next question, which is that if we currently have a sitting labour

councillor from a council, councillor from a big council, by the way, in newcastle, you know, it's a major, it's a major area it's not, that know, it's a major, it's a major arwould it's not, that know, it's a major, it's a major arwould makes not, that know, it's a major, it's a major arwould makes imassive that it would make a massive difference, but it's not some backwater in the middle of backwater out in the middle of nowhere. it's newcastle who nowhere. know it's newcastle who feels and brazen about feels so open and brazen about doing to me indicate doing this. that to me indicate it's an ideology is it's an ideology that is ingrained within a party which is if you are illegal. no, is that if you are illegal. no, no one's really illegal. everyone's got a human right to come and live here in this country and people fear this about the next election . they about the next election. they fear, well, look, at least the conservative party have paid lip service to the idea that they want to care about our borders . want to care about our borders. are the labour party just going to throw the doors open ? to throw the doors open? >> well, absolutely. i mean, i think it's very worrying where we are at the moment, but what could come next in terms of immigration depending on what happens with the election i think potentially terrifying happens with the election i tii nk potentially terrifying happens with the election i tii mean, otentially terrifying happens with the election i tii mean, youtially terrifying happens with the election i tii mean, you know, errifying happens with the election i tii mean, you know, and ying happens with the election i tii mean, you know, and it|g happens with the election i tii mean, you know, and it is . i mean, you know, and it is very worrying. and what to me is very worrying. and what to me is very worrying. and what to me is very worrying in this case is that while the lady may not have technically broken any laws, if you're illegal immigrant and

you're an illegal immigrant and you're an illegal immigrant and you see someone who is a councillor for advertising legal services , you might be more services, you might be more inclined to go to that person because they're councillor because they're a councillor thinking rightly or thinking that you, rightly or wrongly, may able thinking that you, rightly or wr help , may able thinking that you, rightly or wr help your may able thinking that you, rightly or wrhelp your application able thinking that you, rightly or wrhelp your application more; to help your application more. so i think, you know, it really is very concerning in, in every way, you know, it is. >> and for the labour party to not come down on her like a tonne of bricks, i think shows a level of weakness there. and again, it's the signs that we're sending people, isn't it? the sending to people, isn't it? the signs we send to people not signs that we send to people not just from a political perspective, but also unfortunately, from some elements of the legal profession. with interest elements of the legal professthis with interest elements of the legal professthis about nterest elements of the legal professthis about the est elements of the legal professthis about the home earlier this week about the home office bombarded office being bombarded with complaints not complaints about people not being on the bbc. being able to stay on the bbc. stockholm. i do refuse to believe that asylum seekers genuinely are coming up with all of their own proper legal defences when it comes to this. the trauma at c1, for example, i think is an absolute joke, right? they're saying they suffered they suffered trauma at sea so they can't stay on barge. that is can't stay on a barge. that is the of thing that a skilled the kind of thing that a skilled lawyer would come up with if

them called the moment it all kicked off. joining me now to discuss this is us sas veteran phil champion. phil, thank you very much. this i don't think bodes well for the future of this or indeed the this country or indeed the world. by what we've world. judging by what we've seen there. >> i think, look, i think people are very, very quick. >> like a there's a blame >> it's like a there's a blame culture isn't there ? culture nowadays, isn't there? >> what mean? >> you know what i mean? and i think if one person you summed up one person hits that up there, one person hits that panic button and everyone suddenly tell you suddenly goes, i'll tell you what, go wrong . and what, this could go wrong. and then just shut everything then they just shut everything down. think we are a bit down. and i think we are a bit quick shut things down. that quick to shut things down. that said, , people would quick to shut things down. that said, with , people would quick to shut things down. that said, with us , people would quick to shut things down. that said, with us nowaople would quick to shut things down. that said, with us now and; would quick to shut things down. that said, with us now and say uld quick to shut things down. that said, with us now and say it's argue with us now and say it's sooner that the headline was that have removed to that people have been removed to hotels graveyards , you hotels and not graveyards, you know what i mean? so it is a very, difficult fine line very, very difficult fine line at all. and you are dealing with you. >> i get that. i get that parents might be worried and they're these kids they're saying, oh, these kids have kids have suffered have these kids have suffered from stroke things. from heat stroke and things. obviously look, hey, if children are suffered from heat are genuinely suffered from heat stroke quite stroke or i would also quite politely phil, politely argue, though, phil, why look after why can't they just look after themselves little bit like

themselves a little bit like it's it's not it's not that it's not it's not it's not that difficult to not get heat stroke. this a stroke. right. and this is a field full tents . there are field full of tents. there are facilities out there. you know, you it just you can get water. it just smacks to me of this idea that some parents getting in touch saying they all thought they were die. you know, were going to die. you know, there mosquitoes over there were mosquitoes over there, there were there, phil, there were mosquitoes. left alone mosquitoes. they were left alone in of mosquitoes. in a field full of mosquitoes. they weren't left alone. bear grylls is there? yeah i've seen bear was there and there did actually on actually allude to on his instagram it was hot. instagram post that it was hot. >> let's look after each >> and let's look after each other a little bit. so you know it bears saying it's hot and you know did watch his little piece on stage was he was on stage and he was he was profusely sweating. so don't doubt that it's hot . you know, doubt that it's hot. you know, the acclimatisation thing for kids travelling that far around the world. it's different for some of them. they would not have been that far before. so i can understand where some of them have been feeling them would have been feeling uncomfortable . it uncomfortable personally. it would have been a case for me of removing those that wanted to be removed keeping there removed and keeping those there that be there for that wanted to be there for a

little while longer to see, you know, now, now they've know, well, now, now they've got a now they've got a nice a hotel now they've got a nice hotel room. >> look, phil, thank you very much. short and sweet, but always champion always good big phil champion there, sas veteran right there, former sas veteran right now, well, i suppose now, greenpeace. well, i suppose this but this is similar vein this, but greenpeace has its anti greenpeace has defended its anti oil prime minister oil protest at prime minister rishi sunak's constituency . home rishi sunak's constituency. home areeb hamid , the group's areeb hamid, the group's co—executive director, said that the roof protests had been planned carefully and would not have gone ahead if the prime minister was there. the five activists who scaled the pm's home have since been released on bail. i would urge everybody to take a quick look at some point of our wonderful ben leo's video where he went into greenpeace office and just asked him a few polite questions. but look, joining me now to discuss this further is the director of the climate media coalition, estonica mccarthy donica. look, thank very much. to great thank you very much. to great chat let's talk about chat to you. let's talk about the tactics here. do you the tactics here. okay. do you think they were to think that they were right to scale a man's home and attach themselves to his roof compared

to what the suffragettes did to the prime ministers in the early 20th century? >> this is tiny, really mild , >> this is tiny, really mild, respectful protest. >> i think they were right to make sure the kids were there. i think that was a good idea. >> but in the in the suffragettes , they blew up the suffragettes, they blew up the prime minister's house. >> they set fire to the theatre . the prime minister and another one attacked. >> is that right, though? >> so is that all right, though? is yeah, but is that is that is. yeah, but is that all right? absolutely not. >> what i'm saying is. >> so what i'm saying is. >> so what i'm saying is. >> what's point of >> but what's the point of comparing? yeah. >> compared to the things we're facing are in last facing while we are in the last month, we have looked at the warnings margaret thatcher warnings that margaret thatcher warned about 30 years ago. >> she said we would pass if someone if someone, if someone hijacks a plane and leaves it on the tarmac instead of flying into the side of the world trade centre, you can't say, centre, you can't really say, well, all right. well, that was all right. >> know, as long as they're >> you know, as long as they're all right, they're perfectly justified what they're justified in doing what they're doing. two wrongs doing. you know, two wrongs don't they? so don't make a right, do they? so i've i've got to look. is it

i've got i've got to look. is it is it not? is it not the question? well, i haven't asked you a question yet, so. no, no. i was about to ask you whether or worried that this or not you are worried that this will the way more will pave the way for more extreme behaviour forward. extreme behaviour going forward. >> am worried about >> no, what i am worried about is prime is not is the prime minister is not going take action. going to take action. >> he's a response to the record temperatures was drill more, temperatures was to drill more, drive more and fly more. >> this existential >> and this is an existential threat to everything that margaret considered and margaret thatcher considered and she loved our green and gentle land is under threat from climate change. >> our coastlines , our economy, >> our coastlines, our economy, our wildlife and our and our future. >> and so what we shouldn't be doing is telling the world to max out on oil and gas. >> patrick this is a disgrace selection by the prime minister and says a message for every country in the world to trash the planet. it's a suicide note for humanity and rishi sunak must roll back from it. >> is it a tricky one, though? in a way, danica, because when we look the royal we look at what the royal society we have said, which is that we seeing now that actually we are seeing now less of a percentage of the

world is surface being burnt due to things like wildfires than we were, say, like 20 years ago. we've had two thirds of the great barrier reef has now got like record coral coverage . like record coral coverage. we've got more polar bears than we years as well. so we did 20 years ago as well. so when people wheel out stats like that and think, you know, are we in a climate disaster, we're also seeing well, of course, also seeing as well, of course, for example, in the 1920s, for example, the in the 1920s, more overtly as more people died overtly as a result of climate issues than we're seeing now. people think that maybe those people who climbed roof are a bit climbed his roof are a bit hysteric . well um, people died hysteric. well um, people died because of extreme heat in the 1920s for one reason, because we didn't have refrigeration. >> and so therefore the progress in human technology and human health has meant deaths have reduced over the last century. however where we have this last month had the hottest day ever in 125,000 years. >> the oceans has the hottest temperature ever . we've >> the oceans has the hottest temperature ever. we've had >> the oceans has the hottest temperature ever . we've had the temperature ever. we've had the first extreme temperature event in british waters , which

in british waters, which threatens the future of the fisheries. and we've had the record antarctic melt. >> patrick, you really must wake up to the science. this is serious threat to britain and to our economy and many, many, many respectful people on the right understand this threat and understand this threat and understand that we can invest . understand that we can invest. >> to do this. >> to do this. >> our economy can grow so we >> our economy can grow 50 we can grow >> our economy can grow so we can grow by 2050, and we can tackle climate change. >> does this just justify absolutely any action, though? because i talk to people who are getting increasingly hysterical . if you're saying if you're saying that, okay, well, let's just drill down on this, when is it exactly that you think the world is going to end apart from the world is not going to end . the world is not going to end. >> but every year that we throw more fossil fuels into the climate that the future will get worse . and so, therefore, worse. and so, therefore, margaret thatcher predicted in 1989 that we would breach temperature above 100,000 years ago. we have now done that right. and so the dangers up every year. but i mean, i didn't

i didn't honestly, you've quoted margaret thatcher four times dunng margaret thatcher four times during this interview. >> i had no idea, donica that you were such a massive fan of margaret thatcher. it's remarkable insights, a remarkable insights, a remarkable insight, actually. remarkable insights, a renbelieve insight, actually. remarkable insights, a renbelieve .nsight, actually. >> believe. >> believe. >> but let me go on. >> but no, let me go on. >>— >> but no, let me go on. >> i believe that the right and the left and the centre are all have a common purpose here. >> whether you value the economy, whether you value social justice or you value nature, we all need to act to protect the economy, protect nature and protect climate. not a left right issue. >> do, do do you are you not slightly fearful of the idea that quite a few younger people who do believe , though, that the who do believe, though, that the world is going to end to the point where they're not going to have kids, they're not going to bnng have kids, they're not going to bring kids world, they bring kids into the world, they think is ticking and think the clock is ticking and it's from a variety of it's gone from a variety of different well meaning things to scaling a prime minister's house. get house. at what point does it get too serious, violent action? >> well, i certainly hope we don't get to that. and that's why i've actually very clearly made a differentiation between what current protesters are

doing, which is throwing dust, putting putting a banner up on the prime minister's house compared to what was done a century ago where people were blowing up prime ministers houses talking with ashes. houses and talking with ashes. >> are houses >> however, people are houses are being destroyed by rishi sunak failure to act on climate and it will terribly concerned the future. yes houses are being destroyed at the moment . destroyed at the moment. >> okay. well, if you look at canada , just check canada . canada, just check canada. >> in quebec , background >> in quebec, background wildfires are now 140. >> were they arson or not? were they started by arson or not? because the ones in greece were arson, weren't they? and we were told that i think maybe you were quite vocal about the wildfires there. but, you know, it turns out people those who know out people let those who do know that actually arson is does happen. >> but what happens when the when the climate is 40 degrees? it's a whole place goes up? >> yeah, but if someone wasn't walking around with a lighter and a of gasoline .uk, then and a can of gasoline .uk, then it wouldn't necessarily happen. but look, look, i enjoy of but look, look, i do enjoy a of we're to we're

we're going to have to we're going to go out. thank going to have to go out. thank you very, very much. thank you very okay. right. very much. okay. all right. coming next, i've massively coming up next, i've massively overrun, but i will be talking very to very quickly anyway to a birmingham apparently birmingham gun maker. apparently the to clamp the banks are trying to clamp down british culture. down on rural british culture. patrick

channel well, they want to debunk everything, apparently. but now it's the countryside. rural pursuits and traditional british

activities . according to the activities. according to the telegraph, a third of shooting businesses have had their accounts mysteriously closed down. this comes after financial services firms, some up banned hunts from taking card payments. that's the legal hunts , by the that's the legal hunts, by the way. so there's loads to go at here. i'm going to be joined now by gunmaker steve horton . now by gunmaker steve horton. now horton's and sons has been operating in the city of birmingham since 1855. now steve says that the banks refuse used to be associated with him. look thank you very, very much. it's to great have you on the show. are we really now? de—banking traditional british businesses as engaging in traditional british pursuits . british pursuits. >> yeah, we are. and it goes a bit further than that, actually. >> the actual the government are behind this in a lot of ways because for example, the funding circle is one of the businesses is backed by the great british bank, the great british business

bank, the great british business bank and they point blank refused to offer a loan regardless of how financially sound you are as a business, they just refuse to work with you. >> and that's because basically you make guns. then they think that guns are bad . that guns are bad. >> yeah. and it's just a it's just a cancel. cancel culture. really. um, you know, i've got friends who have engineering businesses and make parts for nuclear submarines. they don't fall under the category. i make a sporting for a firearm that's 650,000 people in the uk are licenced to own and use , and licenced to own and use, and they deem it themselves a risk , they deem it themselves a risk, you know, to their business, to their reputation . and for some their reputation. and for some unknown reason , really, we don't unknown reason, really, we don't have the same issue or they don't have the same issue on the continent . if i don't have the same issue on the continent. if i said i'd shoot over there , it's just like i've over there, it's just like i've said to you, i'd play golf. there's no difference. but here we have this cancel culture

where it's every every , every where it's every every, every three letter word gun . a must be three letter word gun. a must be a bad thing. and it's not the case at all. >> no, it's not the case. >>— >> no, it's not the case. >> i mean, his majesty himself shoots. >> well, his majesty himself shoots. >> this is the other thing. and in fact, people were messaging me about this. they said, well, hang on a minute. how long is it before the king's banked? i mean, seems to be way mean, that seems to be the way that it's going. >> yeah, i think so as well. you know, you know, i've had know, and you know, i've had card machines taken off me . i card machines taken off me. i can't with a high street can't bank with a high street bank. can't bank with a high street bank . if can't bank with a high street bank. if nigel, you can't bank with a high street bank . if nigel, you speak to bank. if nigel, if you speak to nigel anytime soon, tell him cater allen private bank they'll have him . but you know, so . have him. but you know, so. >> yeah. so this is this is where we are, right? which is that you've got a historic business here that is making , business here that is making, providing a service for a not uncommon past time that predominantly you could say maybe people in rural areas , the maybe people in rural areas, the british countryside, enjoy us and you cannot get, despite being a perfectly viable

business, high street banks will not allow you to use them . not allow you to use them. >> yeah, and it's ridiculous really. i mean i'm i'm licenced by the police and checked by the home office as well as all my employees. it says on my certificate, which i've got in front of me, um , if i don't front of me, um, if i don't abide by the firearms act or any other act to do with firearms , i other act to do with firearms, i may well be imprisoned and or fined. yeah so it's my vested in, you know, if i sold a gun to someone who shouldn't have had one. i think the last thing that you would report or any other media outlet is that , you know, media outlet is that, you know, the card machine used was suppued the card machine used was supplied by barclays. >> yeah . yeah. >> well, yeah. yeah. >> well, yeah. yeah. >> well, yeah. yeah. >> well, the actual risk really. >> well, the actual risk really. >> well, the actual risk really. >> well exactly. but also you and your business there since 1855 will have a long extensive track record of not selling guns to kids . and that is a pretty to kids. and that is a pretty strong it's a pretty strong indication that you're not going to suddenly start doing it. now, really, and everything is

probably okay. and i'm very pleased that you've come on to talk this. steve. i wish talk about this. steve. i wish you all the very best going forward. i just quickly, forward. i just very quickly, how bad did this get for you? did this nearly send you under or how things. >> yeah, i mean , i've recently >> yeah, i mean, i've recently tried to do an acquisition of an engineering nothing to engineering business. nothing to do at all. um, and do with firearms at all. um, and the finance broker who are dealt with their financially viable business was buying financially viable 75% of lenders ruled me out because i'm a gun maker. nothing to do with , you know. so nothing to do with, you know. so it , you know, so the interest it, you know, so the interest rates that i was i could access were three times higher than what i could have accessed if i was. >> and steve, steve, i really appreciate you coming on because other people will be looking at all of this stuff now and go, well, my business is something to do with this. i couldn't get a bank account either, and this is we will end up getting as is how we will end up getting as a result of what nigel's done ultimately. now hundreds of
