9:06 pm
get to work. and we start with my big opinion . i've got my big opinion. i've got a radical plan to fix the cross channel migrant crisis. let's scrap the home office and replace those civil servants with criminal albania people smuggling gangs. hear me out on this one. you might have heard this one. you might have heard this week that albanian gangs are smuggling foreign criminals out of britain and charging them as much as 17,500 pounds to do it once the people traffickers have made the journey across from france with their boat laden with migrants , they're laden with migrants, they're then loading the boat up with foreign criminals who've committed crimes in uk and committed crimes in the uk and want avoid uk's justice want to avoid the uk's justice system. despite apparently seeking asylum in the uk. these criminals decide that their home country is safe enough once they've murdered a rival gangster or sexually assaulted a teenagen gangster or sexually assaulted a teenager. frankly, i didn't want these criminals in the uk in the first place, but the home office and the rest of the wokeist establishment do everything establishment blob do everything they can to stymie rishi's attempts to stop them. an undercover investigation by the
9:07 pm
daily mail showed how immigration lawyers coach each cross—channel migrants to exploit our generous asylum system. they're told all the things to say and do to be recognised as a refugee and get a new life in the uk at the taxpayer's expense . but they're taxpayer's expense. but they're told to destroy their passport so that they can claim to come from a war torn area. we've all seen videos of young men on the boats ripping up their identification papers and gleefully throwing them into the sea . they're told pretend sea. they're told to pretend to be younger than they are. they're pretend to be they're told to pretend to be gay they gay or christian so that they can't be sent back as they'll be persecuted . and they're shown persecuted. and they're shown how fake mental health how to fake mental health conditions. they're told to pretend to be the victim of human traffickers instead of people who've paid human traffickers. it's a cynical abuse of britain's asylum system . our noble effort offering help to persecuted people who genuinely need it. the sad thing is those genuinely in need of asylum are the ones at the back of the queue. they can't afford to pay the thousands of pounds
9:08 pm
people traffickers ask for to cross the channel there. the women and children in war zones and refugee camps and our overseas aid budget is diverted from helping people in the third world to paying for swanky hotels for cross—channel migrants and worse, this exploitation of our asylum system leads to tragedy here, as in the case of the liverpool maternity bomber who is here as an asylum seeker pretending he was a christian. fortunately, his bomb detonated in the taxi instead of on the maternity ward. but allowing uncontrolled immigration of fighting age men from failed states with violent mediaeval ideologies is obviously going to lead to such atrocities as it's imperative that we stop the flow of cross—channel migrants not just for the sake of britain , but for for the sake of britain, but for the sake of people in other countries who are genuinely persecuted and genuinely need to claim asylum . but rishi's plans claim asylum. but rishi's plans to with illegal immigration to deal with illegal immigration are stymied by the woke are being stymied by the woke blob that controls the establishment. ngos human rights lawyers, unions , european
9:09 pm
lawyers, unions, european courts, the mainstream media all fighting to keep the boats coming across the channel and the worst offender is the home office, unelected and unaccountable cabal and packed full of keir's cronies as they're supposed to enact the will of our elected government instead , they're doing instead, they're doing everything they can to block it. it's anti—democratic and terrible for britain. frank kelly the only people doing anything to reduce the numbers of foreign criminals on our shores are the people traffickers smuggling the criminals out. so let's let them run the home office by charging up to 17.5 grand for each criminal they smuggle out. this could bring in some much needed revenue to the nation's coffers to pay for the migrants who aren't leaving. and because they're making full use of the return journey, it's also to going help britain hit its net zero obligations. what's not to love about this plan .
9:10 pm
love about this plan. i'm meat it. >> okay. anyway anyway. >> okay. anyway anyway. >> what what do you think? welcome to the show it's great to great to see you. i don't think you've ever seen me move that think you've ever seen me move tha i think you've ever seen me move thai don't think i've ever heard >> i don't think i've ever heard anything. have just thrown anything. you have just thrown some red out there for lab some red meat out there for lab grown . you have just thrown out grown. you have just thrown out the red meat for. well, can you see the right? >> can you see a flaw in my plan? >> yeah . because he lots lots of >> yeah. because he lots lots of flaws in your plan. but i think >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing'our plan. but i think >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing that3lan. but i think >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing that ian. but i think >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing that i wantut i think >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing that i want toi think >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing that i want to say nk >> yeah. because he lots lots of flavthing that i want to say is the thing that i want to say is that the system is that this is the system. you know, we're talking about. you're talking about lawyers and solicitors that are making money out of this that are businesses. there is a big business now around refugees and migration. you know , the way that the hotels are sort of happy to give up, you know, their spaces because they're getting lots of home office so i think rather office money. so i think rather than critique the people themselves, the migrants themselves, the migrants themselves , i think we need to themselves, i think we need to critique the system that is

9:21 pm
bank account, will this be enough to get us out of this dystopian madness? i'm joined now by the general secretary of the free speech union and de—banking victim , toby young. de—banking victim, toby young. toby how are you? thanks. i'm good. thanks. thanks for thanks for joining us in the studio forjoining us in the studio tonight . so you've tonight. and so you've been a victim de—banking yourself. victim of de—banking yourself. >> yes . so in victim of de—banking yourself. >> yes. so in september of last yeanl >> yes. so in september of last year, i was notified by paypal that they were closing my personal paypal account. now i didn't get 90 days notice. i didn't get 90 days notice. i didn't get 90 days notice. i didn't get 60 days notice, which that's supposed to give you under the current regulations. it was just a notification that my account had been closed effect immediately. and in addition, like a few minutes later, i got a notification saying they closed the account of the free speech union and the account the daily sceptic, my account of the daily sceptic, my news over news publishing site. so over night, with no notification, no right of appeal and no real explanation on all three accounts were closed . and i accounts were closed. and i tried writing to like nigel farage. i tried writing to the ceo of paypal . i wrote to the ceo of paypal. i wrote to the head of paypal europe. i tried
9:22 pm
every which way to try and appeal the decision to try and find out why they'd closed my accounts to try and get some kind of explanation. and did they did they tell anything? kind of explanation. and did theyonlythey tell anything? kind of explanation. and did theyonly thingell anything? kind of explanation. and did theyonly thingell would hing? kind of explanation. and did theyonly thingell would tell? the only thing they would tell me that one of the me is that is that one of the accounts? wouldn't say accounts? they wouldn't say which one had breached the acceptable use policy and that's the size of war and peace . that the size of war and peace. that was really unhelpful. nobody reads the terms and conditions. it was like , you know, and it it was like, you know, and it was which bit of the was like, which bit of the policy, which chapter at least , policy, which chapter at least, you it's 100 chapters. you know, it's the 100 chapters. and so when i discovered that there no real right of there was no real right of appeal internal appeal through internal processes, i decided to appeal by taking it court of by taking it to the court of pubuc by taking it to the court of public opinion and public with it. i broke the story on, on, on mark dolan's show, actually on gb news, and some mps got involved. jacob rees—mogg started asking questions and after a couple of weeks of this pubuc after a couple of weeks of this public pressure on paypal, then caved and restored all three accounts. but i was lucky you know, i megaphone to know, i had the megaphone to make a really big fuss the make a really big fuss in the pubuc make a really big fuss in the public square about it. i was able it publicly in able to appeal it publicly in the so in the end,
9:23 pm
the media. and so in the end, they did a reverse ferret. most people to whom this happens don't opportunity don't have that opportunity and they lump it. they just have to lump it. >> and have stayed with >> and have you stayed with paypal have you moved on another. >> i've well, i haven't used >> no, i've well, i haven't used paypal since, but and one of the things the free speech union did when our accounts were restored , we didn't think, okay, that's fine, move on. we started fine, we'll move on. we started to talking the government ministers, talking to the treasury about what they could do make more difficult to do to make it more difficult to protect from from from protect people from from from this, from from , from the same this, from from, from the same thing happening to them. and it was partly a result of our was partly as a result of our lobbying , was partly as a result of our lobbying, our lobbying, the treasury that they've introduced these they these new rules whereby they have to give you 90 days notice now close your now before they close your account and they have to give you explanation than account and they have to give you breachedexplanation than account and they have to give you breached ouranation than account and they have to give you breached our acceptable] account and they have to give you breached our acceptable use policy. so that's a step in the right direction. >> yeah. and why do you think banks are this? because banks are doing this? because i know when paypal cancelled your account and there was the furore, of people decided furore, a lot of people decided to paypal accounts. to close their paypal accounts. i mean, didn't close mine, i mean, it didn't close mine, but it cleared out the funds in it so they wouldn't have those
9:24 pm
to it. so it's clearly to invest it. so it's clearly commercially damaging when they when they attack somebody like yourself, why do you think they're doing it? >> well, well, the irony of this, leo, is that they often say the reason they're closing accounts, was the accounts, this was the explanation in in nigel farage's case, closed nigel farage's case, they closed nigel farage's account they, they, they account because they, they, they wanted were worried about wanted they were worried about the they the bank's reputation. they thought that banking nigel posed a risk to coutts's reputation . a risk to coutts's reputation. >> nobody knew that nigel bank with coutts of course not. >> hadn't , he hadn't told >> he he hadn't, he hadn't told anyone and been anyone about it and he'd been banking years anyone about it and he'd been baniactually years anyone about it and he'd been baniactually the years anyone about it and he'd been baniactually the damage years anyone about it and he'd been baniactually the damage dones anyone about it and he'd been baniactually the damage done to and actually the damage done to coutts's reputation was closing his account because they wanted to protect their reputation. i mean can't imagine a more colossal harm being done to coutts's reputation than how they behaved in particular they behaved in that particular situation . you know, the ceo situation. you know, the ceo of coutts had to resign, as did the ceo of natwest, the parent company. the idea that you're company. so the idea that you're protecting the reputation of the bank by kicking out these awkward customers is for the birds. >> yeah, it's ridiculous . >> yeah, it's ridiculous. >> yeah, it's ridiculous. >> and we're seeing people
9:25 pm
talking about esg, which which are the sort of environmental, social and governance guidelines that a lot of large investment companies use to direct their resources . and you can only draw resources. and you can only draw down credit from these companies if you can show that you're doing something good and showing that you're doing something good, as we've seen in any attempt to achieve utopia usually involves doing terrible things . so, usually involves doing terrible things. so, you usually involves doing terrible things . so, you know, by things. so, you know, by cancelling for azure, by cancelling for azure, by cancelling the free speech union, they can say, look, we're doing something good, we're cancelling these , you cancelling these these, you know, devices of know, these devices of organisations or people or whatever, but in fact they're doing something bad. yeah. >> and actually there was a direct link between esg and the closure of nigel farage's account. coots had signed up to this this new movement called b b—corp, whereby they became a benefit corporation . an it's a benefit corporation. an it's a kind of company. now, you can get the certification a bit like becoming a stonewall diversity champion. you get the
9:26 pm
certificate to put in a frame and put on the ceo's wall saying you're a benefits company. and that means essentially enforcing compliance with esg policies. right? and it's an american activist organisation that now hasifs activist organisation that now has it's now got its it's set up effectively in the uk and more uk companies have got this certificate now than any companies in anywhere else in the world. it's like more popular now. it's growing faster in the uk than anywhere else. and signed up. they'd and coots had signed up. they'd become corp certified become a b corp certified company and they were saying, you know, when they when in their internal notes we're cancelling nigel because he no longer complies with this new forward looking include lviv sense of purpose. we have all of thatis sense of purpose. we have all of that is language that comes from this american based activist organisation which is spreading its tentacles overseas , a its tentacles overseas, a voluntary version of the chinese social credit system. >> i mean, that's insane. and do you see any any light at the end of the tunnel for this? because we've seen esg do incredible
9:27 pm
damage. you know, the woke rules they follow like bud light , for they follow like bud light, for example, it's lost huge market share . so it's doing commercial share. so it's doing commercial damage. you that's damage. do you think that's going change the going to force a change in the market and a shift away esg market and a shift away from esg rules? market and a shift away from esg rul> well, i think i think the fact that attempts to close the accounts of some high profile people , including nigel farage, people, including nigel farage, have backfired so spectacularly, and heads have rolled at a very senior level. i think that helps. i think the i think the boycott of bud light , we saw, i boycott of bud light, we saw, i think earlier, earlier last week that the mothership and has bosch has lost something like 10% of its net wealth as a result of the boycott of bud light by partnering with dylan mulvaney, this trans influencer , there's a push back against esg . there's a push push back esg. there's a push push back against ulez expansion. the fact that the conservatives held on in uxbridge and ruislip rishi sunak has just approved all these drilling and exploration licences in the north sea. it's beginning to feel as if there's a bit of a push back against
9:28 pm
this kind of woke authority . this kind of woke authority. aryanism whether in the financial sector , in the energy financial sector, in the energy sector, in the drinks sector. so i think there is reason for some hope. >> brilliant. well, that's a that's a slightly note that's a slightly cheerier note to on. toby, thank you so to end on. toby, thank you so much joining us best much forjoining us and best of luck the free luck with everything the free speech union does. thank you . speech union does. thank you. anyway, our first poll result is in we asked you could labour solve the channel migrant crisis 7 solve the channel migrant crisis ? well, you can probably guess the result of this. 90% of you say no. well 10% of you say yes. i see. why would they? that's future labour voters coming up next with the pundits. jk rowling cancelled again. when will the madness end? and would you eat meat grown in a lab? i'll see you in two minutes. don't go away . don't go away. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers, proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. weather on. gb news. >> good evening. my name is rachel ayers and welcome to your latest gb news weather forecast brought to you by the met

hello welcome back to mark dolan tonight . with me, leo kearse and tonight. with me, leo kearse and we've got some more of your gb views as joe says . oh dear. views as joe says. oh dear. cancel culture. i am offended that you are offended. we are cancelling you know, appeals. that's that's lovely. paul says the lab grown meat is gross. yes. well, why not try it in a sandwich first? before. before it might just need some mustard. richard says just watch any keir starmer speech on youtube that will get you off to sleep every time . well, charisma isn't as time. well, charisma isn't as strong point, but he's made the labour party electable . so. so labour party electable. so. so that's that's some achievement. anyway, coming up in this section and do keep, keep those views coming in at gb views. no gbviews@gbnews.com. but coming up in this section we have a discussion with conor holohan from the taxpayers alliance.
9:48 pm
drivers across the country will be hit with a £100 million in charges every day if ulez levies are rolled out nationally. sadiq khan's plan to expand the ultra low emission zone beyond the capital would see nearly 8 million motorists who still drive older petrol and diesel cars having to pay £12.50 a day. when will enough be enough ? i'm when will enough be enough? i'm joined now by conor holohan from the taxpayers alliance, who's insisted it's time to slam the brakes on these extra charges. conon brakes on these extra charges. conor, how are you ? can you hear me? >> thank you and good to be with you. yeah. so i can i can. so we at the taxpayers alliance have taken a number of cars across england that are continue to be non ulez compliant under the current plans we see in london. and extrapolated what would happenif and extrapolated what would happen if you expanded a ulez across the whole of england and as you said, found that with as you said, we found that with those non—compliant cars paying £12.50 a day, would be £100
9:49 pm
£12.50 a day, that would be £100 million. motorists would be milked for every single day , milked for every single day, every day. >> £100 million. >> £100 million. >> absolutely . and we see ulez >> absolutely. and we see ulez schemes being considered in places like birmingham , bristol places like birmingham, bristol and manchester. and unfortunately, it does seem that it's sort of coming down the tracks for a lot of places. motorists at the moment are often favourite punching bag often the favourite punching bag often the favourite punching bag of saying whitehall or of people saying whitehall or metropolitan centres are able to use world class public transport networks like transport for london or who maybe ride a bike to work. but that's not the case for everyone . some people have to work. but that's not the case for evertore . some people have to work. but that's not the case for everto usesome people have to work. but that's not the case for everto use their people have to work. but that's not the case for everto use their caryple have to work. but that's not the case for everto use their car toe have to have to use their car to work. some people have to use their car to get to work and unfortunately in they're unfortunately they're in they're in pounding . in for a pounding. >> and are these ulez zones even necessary? because, i mean, over the next ten years, we're projected to make the move to electric vehicles, which obviously don't emit emissions at the actual vehicle they do at the petrol station that generates the electricity . but generates the electricity. but with the move to electric vehicles, it would seem we don't
9:50 pm
need these emission zones. are they just a cash grab? i mean. no, sadiq khan, for example, has a massive hole in his budget with tfl is down a billion and a half pounds . so he wants to fill half pounds. so he wants to fill it by by taxing everybody to the hilt. is that is this just about money? >> it's absolutely be hugely about money. that's why , you about money. that's why, you know, you can see by these figures how tantalising it is for people who are in city halls or or in westminster or town halls or in westminster to raising money in this way. to be raising money in this way. but the thing is, like say , but the thing is, like you say, once ulez implemented, once ulez is implemented, we shouldn't be lulled false shouldn't be lulled into a false sense security . when fuel sense of security. when fuel duty raising money duty is no longer raising money because people electric because people have electric cars. have people trying cars. we'll have people trying to implement new taxes and we may even more barmy may see some even more barmy measures line. measures coming down the line. and what are some of the measures be measures that would be implemented we move implemented when we do move to electric vehicles and they can't put the duty on fuel anymore? >> because, i mean, i think that's that's that's going to cost that's going hole in the going to be a hole in the government budget government government's budget of something around £26 billion a year that they make from fuel
9:51 pm
duty. >> yeah , well, you're absolutely >> yeah, well, you're absolutely right. there is to going be a huge hole. and we've seen suggestions that sadiq khan might charge by the mile. the important thing is that when new taxes are brought to in the once fuel duty sort of dies away, that it's done to match the cost of the impact of driving rather than just as a way of raising money. so some kind of road pricing scheme, which is based on time. and you know, the demand on the road might be a way of doing it, but it can't be a sort of scheme that's made in the image of ulez, which ends up just punishing poorer drivers who upgrade or who have to who can't upgrade or who have to drive times . drive at certain times. >> i mean, wouldn't a better opfion >> i mean, wouldn't a better option instead of trying to find a new taxes to cover the hole in the budget from the end of fuel duty, wouldn't it be better to just reduce the amount that the government spends people government spends and let people keep a bit of that money totally agree with you. >> unfortunately in whitehall, that's a that's an idea that we're trying to get hard to
9:52 pm
proliferate, we're proliferate, but we're struggling with. thankfully, it seems is looking seems the chancellor is looking to efficiencies and there to find efficiencies and there are efficiencies to be found in whitehall and across the public sector and if they could find those, can some of the those, they can pass some of the savings pressed savings on to hard pressed taxpayers, including motorists . taxpayers, including motorists. >> and we can see this becoming quite politico really divisive issue. and in fact, the issue. now and in fact, the recent by—election in uxbridge, it was expected to be an easy win for labour , for against win for labour, for against against the tories. in fact, in fact the tories held on to uxbndge fact the tories held on to uxbridge and that was mainly due to due to people rejecting sadiq khan's ulez and wanting to send a message to labour that we don't want this ulez and we don't want this ulez and we don't want this ulez and we don't want to be paying this tax . yes. i mean, do you think pubuc . yes. i mean, do you think public opinion and just the fact that it's politically damaging for politicians to back this could could force a change? >> farage i think so. i think people across the country, they they they want it to improve air
9:53 pm
quality. they want to see the environment safeguarded , but environment safeguarded, but they don't want to see huge charges like ulez, which turn them into cash cows. they don't want to see massive extra charges on their energy bills. they to sustainable they want this to be sustainable in a way which doesn't make things for them at the things harder for them at the time of living time of a cost of living crisis, which you see newspapers which is why you see newspapers and programs like yours campaign , you know, arguing against huge amounts of charges on people . amounts of charges on people. and this sort of race to net zero. >> and just quickly before we 90, >> and just quickly before we go, we've seen we've seen a clash between keir starmer and sadiq khan over ulez. sadiq is obviously pro ulez because he wants that money and keir starmer is anti ulez because he wants those votes. do you think this could cause a rift in the labour party ? labour party? >> i think it may do, but the important thing will be for londoners and people who have to commute into london, what they'll want to see is a result in terms of ulez being put to bed and i think that that's what's important for people who

10:05 pm
malema, leader of the left wing economic freedom freedom fighters. the third largest party in south africa. but growing in popularity and likely to be kingmakers at the next election. elon musk , who's from election. elon musk, who's from south africa, spoke out, accusing malema of calling for white genocide . but the response white genocide. but the response from the media has been silence. can you imagine the guardian ignonng can you imagine the guardian ignoring a white politician calling for black people to be killed or worse than silence? the new york times interviewed bongani kalunga , an academic at bongani kalunga, an academic at the university of johannesburg , the university of johannesburg, who said that the phrase kill the boer is not meant to promote violence. it was a call to mobilise us against an oppressive system. mr kalunga said. except jane side against white south africans is real. following malema's incendiary speech, it was revealed that a 79 year old white farmer had been killed and his wife savagely beaten . but it's not savagely beaten. but it's not just white south africans who will suffer. zimbabwe is next door and shows where this violent rhetoric can lead . in
10:06 pm
violent rhetoric can lead. in 1980, the left wing politician robert mugabe took control of a zimbabwe recently freed from british rule . zimbabwe should british rule. zimbabwe should have been a shining african success story. good infrastructure , nature, fertile infrastructure, nature, fertile soil and well run farms meant it was the breadbasket of africa with a strong economy thanks to its exports of maize , cotton, its exports of maize, cotton, beef, tobacco , sugarcane and beef, tobacco, sugarcane and roses. the flowers , not the roses. the flowers, not the sweets. for a while, everything was fine, but faltering support led mugabe to pursue racially divisive politics, whipping up hate against white farmers just like julius malema is doing now in south africa. mugabe said that if white settlers just took the land from us without paying for it , we can the land from us without paying for it, we can just take it from them without paying for it. the thing is , most farmers had thing is, most farmers had bought their farms after independence, so the titles to the land weren't issued by evil colonial brits who had stolen the land but by mugabe's own government. it didn't matter . government. it didn't matter. the rule of law was out of the
10:07 pm
window. mugabe's armed militia, many of them veterans from zimbabwe's civil war, killed and terrorised white farmers and seized their land . of the 4000 seized their land. of the 4000 commercial farms in zimbabwe , commercial farms in zimbabwe, all but 500 were seized. and instead of being given to the people, as mugabe had promised, they were divvied up between mugabe's family. political cronies and military men. they turned out to be terrible farmers crops died in the field. production collapsed. they killed the cattle for food and ate the seeds for the next year's crop. farm equipment was sold for scrap metal . if you sold for scrap metal. if you think we've got it bad, zimbabwe nomics was something else in inflation hit 79.6 billion% month on month. good luck for anybody with a tracker mortgage. people starved and a country that used to export millions of tonnes of food became dependent on charity . tonnes of food became dependent on charity. killing tonnes of food became dependent on charity . killing white people on charity. killing white people turned out to be bad for black people to it looks like south africa could be heading in the same direction. inequal ity is worse than under apartheid . worse than under apartheid. unemployment is at a staggering
10:08 pm
33. the poor governance and corruption that plagued other parts of africa are now rampant in south africa. the ruling party, the anc, the party of nelson mandela, is tearing itself apart as its support crumbles with soaring food pnces crumbles with soaring food prices , power cuts and violent prices, power cuts and violent crime . the country is a fertile crime. the country is a fertile ground for a vicious demagogue like julius malema to bring about white genocide and reduce his country to dust and bones . his country to dust and bones. anyway, what do you think ? do anyway, what do you think? do you agree? do you disagree? email gbviews@gbnews.com. i'll get to your emails after the break. reacting to my take at ten tonight are conservative member of the house of lords, lord taylor of warwick. ethnographer and author dr. lisa mckenzie and tv personality ashley horgan—wallace. now so what did you think of that ? are what did you think of that? are you worried about about the direction that south africa is going in? it was really scary to
10:09 pm
watch . watch. >> i found it very disturbing . >> i found it very disturbing. and but i think it's important to remember that both the left and the right wing parties over there in south africa have both condemned this man and what he stands for . so i don't know. stands for. so i don't know. it's scary. >> but i mean , they've condemned >> but i mean, they've condemned him, but he enjoys massive support. >> i mean, i think he got 13 his party got 13% of the vote last time. they're the third largest political party and they're likely to be kingmakers in the next election. in fact, they next election. and in fact, they control i they control control i believe they control one of south africa already. >> i mean, i don't know if it's an official song or if he just made up those lyrics, but he did say that he didn't actually mean it that he didn't mean it to mean that he didn't mean to for people to go out and shoot people. but i mean, it's hard to think it meant anything else because that's what he says, so yeah, i mean, says, right? so yeah, i mean, this what happens when this this is what happens when you've got when you've got mass levels of inequality and poverty. >> this is what you can do . you
10:10 pm
>> this is what you can do. you can divide people, you can do hate speech and people who are poor are going to want to hear something that's going to help them. and so if that is a bigger or if that is and that works both ways, because i think some of the migration stuff that we talk about in this country blaming migrants and blaming refugees , we do this as well. refugees, we do this as well. obviously not to that extent. >> well, i've got to i've got to take issue with that because , i take issue with that because, i mean, the issue isn't with the migrants themselves. the specific people is specific individual people is with system and with the with the system and with the massive the massive numbers. i mean, a huge demographic shift like that is an experiment that we don't know what it's going to lead to. and we've seen we've seen huge issues with when you got unlimited labour for the businesses. >> but when you've got deep inequalities, when you've got deep inequalities and you've got deep inequalities and you've got deep levels of poverty, you are going to get divisions and people will listen to the to the person who is speaking to their
10:11 pm
pain. >> and if that if that means causing greater division, that's going to happen . so i think what going to happen. so i think what we've got to do with this is you've got you've got greed, you've got you've got greed, you've got you've got greed, you've got corrupt politicians and you've got deep, deep levels of division and poverty. >> years ago, i had the pleasure and honour of having lunch with nelson mandela when he was still president. he came to london. he was on his way to paris. but i spent three hours with and spent three hours with him. and this who'd been locked this was a man who'd been locked up for years by, you know, up for 27 years by, you know, the white system . there wasn't the white system. there wasn't a trace of bitterness . he just trace of bitterness. he just wanted south africa to be great again. and i know south africa wants to do trade deals with britain. so i think this is a story that needs to be presented to the leaders in south africa that that kind of rhetoric is simply not acceptable . and to simply not acceptable. and to revisit the legend and the history of a great man like mandela , because what we saw on mandela, because what we saw on that video clip , that was no that video clip, that was no nelson mandela. he was an idiot.
10:12 pm
if you fight fire with fire, everyone gets burnt. >> yeah, but i can understand and some people's frustration as well, like you said about poverty, extreme poverty , people poverty, extreme poverty, people suffering are going to listen to the part that resonates with them. and if too that's get back their land, then i can kind of i can kind of understand it. it doesn't work . it didn't work. doesn't work. it didn't work. >> it was it's rule one in the dictators rule book, isn't it? >> divide and conquer. if you've got if you've got people who are living in poverty, in poverty and feel that there's great sense of injustice, rule one of the dictators pamphlet is divide and conquer. and this is, you know, but are they living? >> are they living in poverty because of the because of the farmers? because of the borders? >> of course. >> oh, of course. >>— >> oh, of course. >> living in poverty >> or are they living in poverty because >> or are they living in poverty becthey're and that's >> or are they living in poverty bec they're and that's when >> they're not. and that's when you've got when you've got corrupt politicians and you've you've got when you've got corrcorruptiticians and you've you've got when you've got corrcorrupt system,|nd you've you've got when you've got corrcorrupt system, the you've you've got when you've got corrcorrupt system, the people got corrupt system, the people who are in charge are corrupt. they're not to go, oh, they're not going to go, oh, it's they're it's our fault. they're going
10:13 pm
to. that's what we see in to. and that's what we see in governments over the world governments all over the world finding blame amongst the population , whether it's. yeah, population, whether it's. yeah, whether it's benefit claimants, whether it's benefit claimants, whether it's benefit claimants, whether it's single mums, whether it's single mums, whether it's single mums, whether it's refugees , whatever whether it's refugees, whatever it is , every government will it is, every government will find a scapegoat somewhere . find a scapegoat somewhere. >> and laura taylor i mean, how do you think nelson mandela i haven't met yourself. how haven't met him yourself. how do you this you think he deal with this situation? was still the situation? if he was still the leader of the anc and still the leader of the anc and still the leader of the anc and still the leader of south africa , i think leader of south africa, i think he'd make the point that there's only human race, only one race, the human race, and that isn't about white and black . black. >> it's multiracial nation , >> it's a multiracial nation, south africa, and they need to work together. that was his message. wasn't one sign message. there wasn't one sign of bitterness in that man, and i spoke to him for over three hours. he'd been locked up for 27 years. all he had was compassion for people and he recognised that south africa is all colours are. my parents are from jamaica and the motto of jamaica is out of many one people, you have to live together was only one race. the
10:14 pm
human race. and i predict that that idiot who spoke on that video. yeah, his flame will burn for a while, but eventually he'll disappear. well, let's hope so . hope so. >> yeah. >> yeah. fingers >> yeah. fingers crossed. >> yeah. fingers crossed. anyway coming up, we've got the papers at 10:30 pm. sharp with full panel reaction. but next, tonight's newsmaker is former conservative mp neil parish, who'll be discussing whether mps should be trained in self—defence since

10:18 pm
you liz was the conservatives idea . oh yeah. but it made sense idea. oh yeah. but it made sense when it was just just the centre of london where the pollution actually is. instead of out in uxbridge. and, you know , these uxbridge. and, you know, these leafy suburbs where there isn't any pollution and there also isn't public isn't very good public transport. so you need a car to drive and your family transport. so you need a car to drifootball and your family transport. so you need a car to drifootball anyway your family transport. so you need a car to drifootball anyway . your family transport. so you need a car to drifootball anyway . emailfamily transport. so you need a car to drifootball anyway . email innily to football anyway. email in more, more views gbviews@gbnews.com and we'll get to them later in the show. it's time now for the newsmaker in which a fearless commentator speaks out on the big stories of the day. and tonight's newsmaker is former conservative mp and farmer neil parish, former health secretary matt hancock has said that he thinks that all mps should be entitled to self—defence training. unfortunately it hasn't just been insects in the jungle that he's had to fight off, but people on the underground. so neil, thanks for joining the show . show. >> yes , hi, leo. great pleasure i >> -- >> and with an increase in hostility towards politicians,
10:19 pm
should they be given self—defence training ? self—defence training? >> i've got mixed views, actually, because, i mean, matt hancock is a special case in many respects because, of course, he was secretary of state for health and we had all the rollout. of the vaccine rollout. and of course, some people course, with some people this was . so was very controversial. so i think he had extra pressure and extra trouble because of it. so i think it's up to mps to decide whether they would like it. it's probably quite good to be able to it, in the end , you to offer it, but in the end, you know, need be able to know, we do need to be able to be protected as well . and also be protected as well. and also we do as mps. you do want to be able to go out and see your constituents and do your day to day work . now constituents and do your day to day work. now i constituents and do your day to day work . now i represented a day work. now i represented a rural seat in, you know, tiverton honiton down in devon and i'd be honest with you, never really had any trouble, but are times and but i think there are times and i think when secretaries of state particularly retire , state particularly retire, especially when they've been controversial and dealing with controversial and dealing with controversial subjects and they probably do need greater protection. i mean, i also , of
10:20 pm
protection. i mean, i also, of course, was great friends with with david amis, who was, of course , stabbed, as you know. course, stabbed, as you know. and i shared an office well, not a shared an office office about three doors away from so three doors away from him. so i think we've got to be careful with this and take with all this and just take care. i think . but i think not with all this and just take carympshink . but i think not with all this and just take carymps naturally i think not with all this and just take carymps naturally would< not with all this and just take carymps naturally would have the all mps naturally would have the physique or want to have the training because i think they would be worried that they might sort of almost caught trouble. and i think that's the only other side of it you have to be careful of. i think . careful of. i think. >> yeah. and i think one of the wonderful british >> yeah. and i think one of the wonder1and british british >> yeah. and i think one of the wonder1and british democracy politics and british democracy is that our elected represent tentatives do meet people face to face at surgeries. you can you can go along, you can meet your your mp. and sadly, i mean, that's that's how somebody got within an distance of david amess to kill him . so i mean do amess to kill him. so i mean do you think we're at risk of losing that that sort of vital immediate connection with the voters ? voters? >> yes. i think we've got to be careful , leo, not to overreact
10:21 pm
careful, leo, not to overreact to a few people who have been extra aggressive. and i think they've been dealt with quite rightly . and because i think we rightly. and because i think we still need to as politicians. i mean, i used to go to farmers markets, all sorts of things. you know, you get out of your car, you'd wander around, you could have see everybody . and could have see everybody. and that's what you need to be able to do. because if we if we are sort of kept away from people, when you've got a constituency based system like we have in the uk, which i think is a very good system, you need to be seen not only in parliament, but you need to be seen out in your own area. and i think it'll be a great shame if can't actually do shame if we can't actually do that, meet people because i mean , 99% of people are absolutely fine, but you do get some some odd people. i mean, i had you know, i had a death threat from one particular individual . it one particular individual. it never really resulted in very much. but you just never quite know. and i think some people in some of the constituencies , and
10:22 pm
some of the constituencies, and especially some of the female mps , unfortunately, i think have mps, unfortunately, i think have had quite a rough ride . so had quite a rough ride. so i think we need to be aware that it's not just sort of training and self defence, but also having security , also making having security, also making sure when you have surgeries as far as possible , you know who's far as possible, you know who's coming and you have some sort of reference to them. it's very difficult now to do sort of off the street surgeries because they can be more dangerous, you see. >> yeah. and we're, we need to attract a higher, higher calibre of people into politics and present company excluded of course . but you know politics course. but you know politics politics can be can be a tough job. i mean compared to a lot of industries that people come from. i think sajid javid took a 98% pay cut to become a politician. so it's underpaid compared to some industries. and you get all this opprobrium ,
10:23 pm
you get all this opprobrium, death threats and all the rest of it, which sadly spill over into into real life sometimes. i mean, do you think this could be putting good candidates off, taking a career in politics? >> i hope not. i mean, i always had a great desire to meet people, see people i actually enjoy people, you know. all right. not every individual because you get some very difficult people on occasions. but i think if you go into politics for the right reason, i think people will still go in. i think people will still go in. i think many people actually go in because they actually want to do good. doesn't matter what party you are, really you, you intend to do good when you go to parliament, whether you succeed or not, you know, it's all always beat the system . always beat the system. >> do you think do you think finally i mean, do you think we could we could do with tougher politicians ? i mean, in ukraine, politicians? i mean, in ukraine, you've got vladimir klitschko as mayor of kyiv. i mean, in this country , i guess the closest country, i guess the closest we've got is dominic raab, who's quite tasty, or john prescott could throw a punch. yeah me,
10:24 pm
john prescott, of course, was a trade boxer. >> remember that time when he sort of just reacted to this guy when he came straight at him and he thumped him and perhaps he shouldn't have thumped him. but you it was just a you could see when it was just a reaction . so i think whether we reaction. so i think whether we should , as politicians go around should, as politicians go around thumping our constituents, probably not. so think, you know , it's getting it's sort of getting a balance right, really. and i think at the moment we've got to be careful to not overdo it. but i think in the end, people will still want to be politicians. and i hope that we can do a good job, even though very often not everybody sees it that way. as you well know . that way. as you well know. >> brilliant. well, thank you so much , neil parish, former much, neil parish, former conservative mp and farmer. and for a final poll, we asked you, should mps be taught self—defence? let's see the answers. oh, it's close 46% of you say yes. well, 54% of you say no . coming up, we've got the say no. coming up, we've got the papers at 10:30 pm. sharp with

10:32 pm
and author, dr. lisa mckenzie and tv personality ashlene horgan—wallace . anyway, we will horgan—wallace. anyway, we will kick off with the telegraph bosses who hire illegal migrants face ruin. i mean, we're talking about illegal immigration. it looks like they're they're trying every trick to dissuade people from coming . people from coming. >> well, my point was, how are they going to find these bosses ? be ? because they're going to be paying ? because they're going to be paying in hand. right. ? because they're going to be pay enforced. in hand. right. ? because they're going to be pay enforced. it's in hand. right. ? because they're going to be pay enforced. it's going nd. right. ? because they're going to be pay enforced. it's going to. right. ? because they're going to be pay enforced. it's going to be ght. it's enforced. it's going to be on so it just sounds on the books. so it just sounds like a lot noise to make it like a lot of noise to make it seem like things are done seem like things are being done because but you're because i'm sorry, but you're not the bosses and not going to find the bosses and you're able to you're not going to be able to find them. >> em- w- em-l >> it's august. you get a lot of noise this. >> it's august. you get a lot of noi�*yeah, this. >> it's august. you get a lot of noi�*yeah, twork in a university i >> -- >> and in order, you know, if i get someone to just do a talk about something. yeah. so say i've somebody who works in i've got somebody who works in housing or whatever, and i'll say, come and talk to my students before they even do a talk. they have to come and show their passport right ? so talk. they have to come and show their passport right? so this is their passport right? so this is the that is going the sort of thing that is going to it's going to to happen. it's just going to be more up of that. but more tightening up of that. but it's not. >> p- p— >> but those aren't police. yeah, that's the
10:33 pm
yeah, but that's that's the point. exactly. it's in the car wash for £5. >> that's where it is. >> that's where it is. >> exactly. >> exactly. >> again, know, this is >> so, again, you know, this is just just politicians run just it's just politicians run out of ideas . out of ideas. >> ideas fly or die. and this is going to die, right? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and also, i mean, one the >> and also, i mean, one of the issues with this, issues i've got with this, i mean, think the mean, i think i think the sentiment of looking for different of different ways to sort of dissuade people from coming. different ways to sort of dlssli de people from coming. different ways to sort of dlssli mean,ple from coming. different ways to sort of dlssli mean, thisrom coming. different ways to sort of dlssli mean, thisrom cois ng. but, i mean, this is this is businesses are providing businesses that are providing a legitimate service. and i think the cross—channel migrants that people are more worried about are coming are the people who are coming across as criminal across this as part of criminal gangs , is to distribute drugs or gangs, is to distribute drugs or human trafficking. you know , human trafficking. you know, awful things you're not going after. >> you're not going to have to show your drug dealer your passport, you ? i mean, it's passport, are you? i mean, it's not going to it's not happening. so i think, again , we've got to so i think, again, we've got to be realistic about what is happening here. >> lisa, you think >> and lisa, do you think i mean, labour have come out with this bold claim we'll use migrant to. why is that? migrant barges to. why is that? >> because they've got no choice. >> because there's nothing else . there was a there . i mean, we there was a there was headline didn't . i mean, we there was a there waswhich dline didn't . i mean, we there was a there waswhich was; didn't . i mean, we there was a there waswhich was about didn't . i mean, we there was a there waswhich was about rentsdn't . i mean, we there was a there waswhich was about rents and
