3:05 am
our lives. that 33 year old might not have the zombie makeup out while campaigning with sir keir and angela rayner, but as the sun revealed today , it's the sun revealed today, it's certainly the same guy. it's been a great afternoon out across mid bedfordshire today with keir starmer speaking to people about how fed up they are with the current tory government . that suit doesn't hide the zealotry of the candidate labour has selected. he's a sadiq khan type who wants to convince us the world is on fire and spread the world is on fire and spread the message via gullible outlets like today's evening standard in london. after this despicable invasion of the prime minister's home last week, the government has officially suspended engagement with greenpeace. but i think they need to go one step further and deem them an eco terrorist organisation . terrorist organisation. >> i'm a volunteer climber with greenpeace and i'm on the roof
3:06 am
of the prime minister's house. we're all here because rishi sunak has opened the door for a new drilling frenzy in the north sea. while large parts of our world are literally on fire, this will a disaster for the this will be a disaster for the climate . it won't lower your climate. it won't lower your energy bills . it's not going to energy bills. it's not going to boost our energy security . the boost our energy security. the only people that are to going profit from this at all are the big oil companies. profit from this at all are the big oil companies . so rishi big oil companies. so rishi needs to pick a side . the oil needs to pick a side. the oil profits are our future on a habitable planet . habitable planet. >> so starmer wants to put lunatics like that in government around the cabinet table. he will embrace far more than net zero, likely introducing a green new deal that will make ordinary brits poorer, faster . even brits poorer, faster. even though we are now responsible for less than 1% of global carbon emissions. for less than 1% of global carbon emissions . and yet again carbon emissions. and yet again today , labour was evasive on the today, labour was evasive on the issue when asked about strayhorn's eco extremism targeting a politician's home is never acceptable and greenpeace
3:07 am
were totally wrong to do this to the people of mid—bedfordshire are sick of being taken for granted by the tories and it's time for change. >> they deserve an opportunity to elect a local hard working full time mp. and that's exactly what labour is offering . what labour is offering. >> but for how long can labour keep up this facade of being moderate on the environment and the economy? as cabinet minister grant shapps said today. >> one minute they're climbing the pm's house, next they've got a labour rosette on sir keir starmer must show he practises what he preaches for once and block the eco mob from his candidates list. >> but he won't , especially >> but he won't, especially given he's . accepted £1.5 given he's. accepted £1.5 million from just stop oil's main backer, dale vince , you main backer, dale vince, you have been warned to respond. now my superstar panel, former chancellor kwasi kwarteng, the political commentator and gb news star, the reverend calvin robinson , and the entrepreneur

3:09 am
because calvin, the protests that he was pictured at there as a zombie , this guy who starmer a zombie, this guy who starmer thinks is his new star. >> that was a protest against just very sensible laws that effectively stopped the just stop oil in the insulate britain activists shutting down main highways, stopping ambulances, getting to hospital , stopping getting to hospital, stopping young kids getting to school. >> there's no need for this direct action when there is a democratic approach. but these people don't care about democratic approaches . by democratic approaches. by the way, to blackwell for way, props to ken blackwell for the just there. that the voiceover just there. that was the last was fantastic. it's the last time going be working time i'm going to be working with going to him. with him. i'm going to miss him. so i wanted to put a little shout out. >> certainly not a labour. >> certainly not a labour. >> is not. indeed. he's >> labour is not. indeed. he's entering murky world of entering the murky world of politics, so god bless politics, though, so god bless him. this cult. this is him. but this is a cult. this is a climate cult. what we're seeing the woman in the seeing here and the woman in the video is right our prime video is right that our prime minister need pick minister does need to pick a side. he to drop side. actually, he needs to drop this obsession if he wants this zero obsession if he wants to win the next election after immigration. the most
3:10 am
immigration. it is the most concerning most concerning matter for most people ground. people are people on the ground. people are in a cost lockdown crisis. in a cost of lockdown crisis. they afford to heat their they can't afford to heat their homes and we're to double homes and we're having to double down expensive what it down on the expensive what is it from increased energy from ulez ltns increased energy bills right and centre. bills left, right and centre. this zero policy hurting this net zero policy is hurting people all i mean. >> joanna jarjue can you believe that labour has picked alistair strathearn to be their candidate to take on this really important seat? because remember under nadine dorries, the tories have a 24,025 000 majority and i can't actually and i think it's the right decision for labour. >> when keir starmer took the leadership up, he said that he was going to unite the labour party what i would like party and what i would like to know the is when is know from the right is when is free speech actually acceptable then? just when you don't then? is it just when you don't agree someone? just agree with someone? is it just when topic is that it's when the topic is that it's climate change in political parties you have people who are, you know, hard, right? or hard left. don't hear labour left. you don't hear labour saying much about all similar things like that, you things like this, that, you know, people are zealots. know, these people are zealots. when erg start kicking off
3:11 am
when the erg start kicking off about brexit, my every party has they called them. >> but david lammy did. yeah. >> but david lammy did. yeah. >> my issue with labour though. joanna is they're faking it to the public. starmer is faking it because what he's doing, joanna, is he's saying publicly, i'm a moderate. you don't have to worry about me being in power. i'm not going to do anything extreme. and he goes and extreme. and then he goes and hires as an eco extremist to contest his by—election >> what exactly about protesting dressed as a zombie is extreme missed. i would understand if it was actually one of the people who were on rishi sunak roof, but it's not greenpeace is a big organisation and just to say that you've been associated with an organisation that's been respected for many, many years, i don't respect them anymore. well then if six people stunt kwasi people called that kwasi people have called that into question, then that's not this fault. he's been this guy's fault. he's been doing there's doing great work. there's nothing with nothing wrong with him protesting his protesting protesting and his protesting for a cause that is for a worthy cause that is respected all around the world. that doesn't make him zealot. that doesn't make him a zealot. >> think that his
3:12 am

3:19 am
break until 11 and richard tice both on the way. this our first though the clash and in a firm declaration of intent, the government has issued an ultimatum to the 20 migrants who have refused to board the bibby stockholm get on the barge or face losing all support . that face losing all support. that said, rishi sunak seems no closer to establishing a deterrent after number ten said they were not actively pursuing
3:20 am
any proposals to send channel migrants to ascension island. so it's back to battling lefty lawyers over the rwanda plan. then the stalemate has prompted dr. akiba san to write in the daily telegraph that only a hostile environment can stop a legal migration. he added that there needs to be a truly national effort to dismantle people smuggling networks, as well as punishing, exploitative bosses who employ illegal migrants and unscrupulous landlords house them in landlords who house them in overcrowded properties. so what do we need to do you think? do we need to foster a more hostile and environment to stop the boats? down at gb news made.com vote in our poll at gb news on twitter. those results shortly in henry bolton and nina michkov are riled and ready to debate this in the studio . before that, in the studio. before that, though, i want to bring in dr. rakib hasan himself to make his case. so what do you mean by a more hostile environment? raqeeb well , firstly, dan, i think it's well, firstly, dan, i think it's very important that we do shore
3:21 am
up our border security , and i up our border security, and i hope that the illegal migration act goes some way towards that. >> but what i argue for in my latest piece for the telegraph is , along with strengthening our is, along with strengthening our border security , we should border security, we should toughen our law and order policies within our borders . as policies within our borders. as we know, we have some very serious problems with people smuggling networks in the uk, but also have connections in other countries such as france, germany and belgium. so what i'll argue for in the piece is that the national crime agency has given greater powers, freedoms and resources to cooperate with their counterparts in other countries to dismantle those people smuggling networks. but i also think that we have to consider how we have this illegal immigration ecosystem where we have active participants within it that benefit from illegal immigration, and that includes exploitative bosses who knowingly employ illegal workers and those illegal workers are
3:22 am
provided with accommodation by what i call unscrupulous landlords . so i really want to landlords. so i really want to see i want to see tougher penalties, including prison sentences for individuals , sentences for individuals, including those exploitative bosses and unscrupulous landlords and people smuggling. gangmasters who knowingly smuggle people into the country and benefit from the what i would consider the illegal immigration industry . immigration industry. >> i understand that. dr. gibson do stand by. back in the studio, i've got nina mikhalkov and henry bolton with me . nina, how henry bolton with me. nina, how can you disagree with that? >> the thing is , i'm all for law >> the thing is, i'm all for law and order. i'm all for the rules. i'm all for people not being exploited. but this whole thing is a mess because of the incompetence of this government. the incompetence, particularly of the home office and the bibby stockholm home. >> but what is wrong with creating a hostile environment , creating a hostile environment, a hostile legal, hostile immigration ? immigration? >> a hostile environment? well you can start with saying it's
3:23 am
the landlords, it's the exploitative employers. you can start with that, but then the thing is, it becomes divisive in society and you become so you want to roll out the welcome mat to you. you it becomes us and them and it becomes, look, everybody knows we have in the past been always a very welcome and humane society to refugees. but where are we putting these 50,000 people? >> yeah, and actually, nina, the issue is these 50,000 illegals, mostly economic migrants who are coming over. do you not understand? they're taking the place of genuine refugees. they are asylum seekers who are genuine asylum seekers who are genuine asylum seekers who are following the rules . are following the rules. >> over 70% of asylum seekers are granted asylum. that does not mean that they should be granted asylum and oh, come on, come on. >> you know, i spent three. don't be naive, nina. oh come on. i spent three years in the southern southern balkans working in five countries to combat transnational organised crime with a focus on dealing with dismantling people smuggling networks. they do not

3:36 am
be something going on underneath . and i just guess that actually it means that they can then say , we're not doing any more with you because it doesn't work, because it's an awful lot of money and how can you for a company like netflix, employ two people who have no idea how to be producers? that's what i don't understand. >> why? why not pay £2.3 million and hand a project like that to actual film producers who know a lot of film producers who really are hanging around because there's a strike there and nothing going on. >> so they could get cracking and get it sorted out. and do you know a certain amount? i mean , there is obviously mean, there is obviously something very odd going on underneath because , i mean, underneath because, i mean, meghan thinks she can do everything much better than everyone else, sure . everyone else, that's for sure. sure. but, you know, you can't actually do a big production like that without having a lot of help. >> harry arriving in tokyo on his own . meghan apparently going his own. meghan apparently going to the barbie movie in santa

3:38 am
event invictus games in june , germany. >> what's quite interesting , >> what's quite interesting, though, there's been this very controversial report in the sun newspaper that the couple will not be invited to balmoral , not be invited to balmoral, where king charles is expected to privately commemorate the one year anniversary of the death of the late queen. do you think this was the right decision from the monarch? >> i do, actually, because it's a very quiet thing. it's not going to be a big celebration of her it's not going to be her life. it's not going to be something where there's prayers or anything like that. it's just going to be quiet and peaceful and family are going to pop in and family are going to pop in and pop out. they're not to and then pop out. they're not to going very long. and i going stay for very long. and i think dangerous to invite think it's dangerous to invite harry and meghan because, one, you know if they're coming you never know if they're coming till the last minute. two, harry could opportunity city could take the opportunity city because hasn't spoken his because he hasn't spoken to his father time of father for a long time of saying, now let's get down to this. i want my apology and turn it into something really nasty . it into something really nasty. or they could have a chat and
3:39 am
harry or meghan could sell it to you know, for another tv program or any or leak it to one of their mates or former mates like gayle or oprah on that special day. this is the first anniversary of her passing . you anniversary of her passing. you don't want to be disturbed. you don't want to be disturbed. you don't want to be disturbed. you don't want to be upset . and i don't want to be upset. and i think that they would you can't trust them now. you just can't it. >> okay. moving on, the daily mail columnist , a proud scot, mail columnist, a proud scot, jan moore , has waded in to this jan moore, has waded in to this kilt debate kilt gate , maybe kilt debate kilt gate, maybe we'll call it angela. she is imploring the prince of wales, prince william, to follow in his father's footsteps of that fond tradition of wearing a kilt when on certain scottish engagements . and that's despite the fact that he i mean, look, he's in one there as a kid, but he doesn't like wearing them as an adult. so angela, is jane moore right to try and force william into a kilt or is he able to make his own decision on he's able to make his own decisions.
3:40 am
>> he's over 40 now. he obviously doesn't like it. he had to it as a kid. he had to wear it as a kid. he didn't have option. and he didn't have the option. and he doesn't feel that he wants to. and the hint is that therefore, he go to scotland and he can't go up to scotland and he can't go up to scotland and he really be the king of he can't really be the king of scotland and he can't go the scotland and he can't go to the games all sort of thing games and all that sort of thing is i mean, he just is nonsense. i mean, he just doesn't to wear a kilt. doesn't want to wear a kilt. >> and what about wearing those tartan which is tartan trousers, which is sometimes alternative for scots? >> well, he dress scots? >> well, he does dress up in in pakistani things and has pakistani things and he has dressed other customary dressed up in other customary things in different parts of the country. >> but he doesn't want to wear it. and i think he's working very hard for this country. and if he doesn't want to, you shouldn't bother him. and i don't think that means he doesn't scotland or he doesn't like scotland or he won't the there. won't be the king there. >> he'll pressure in wills >> he'll stop pressure in wills to try and dress and the pressure, i think, is a lot of pressure, i think, is a lot of pressure with what? >> with harry and all the rest of you leave the guy of it. you know, leave the guy alone. if he doesn't want to wear a sort of skirt, then let him not angela levin, the biographer of prince harry. >> and camilla, the queen. thank
3:41 am
you so much. now coming up in tonight's media buzz, with migrants refusing to board the bibby stockholm barge and braverman battling against dodgy asylum is supreme asylum lawyers, is supreme suella right that the solicitor responsible should face prison ? responsible should face prison? well, our producer ben leo went to surprise one of those solicitors today . find out what solicitors today. find out what my superstar panel make of it soon. the next with justice secretary alex chalk standing up for colleague anderson after for colleague lee anderson after he asylum seekers he suggested asylum seekers should back france . i'm should f off back to france. i'm joined by leader of reform uk richard who has firmly team richard tice who has firmly team lee. the studio in lee. he's live in the studio in three short minutes. don't go anywhere
3:44 am
esteem royal biographer tom bower still to come, but it's time now for reform uk leader richard tice and yesterday, lefty lawyers blocked the transfer of 20 migrants onto the bibby stockholm , prompting tory bibby stockholm, prompting tory deputy chairman lee anderson to tell the daily express and his inimitable style if they don't
3:45 am
like barges, then they should f off back to france , reacting for off back to france, reacting for the shadow home secretary diane abbott said it was a new low even for the tories . and taking even for the tories. and taking their cue from the islington liberal elite, bbc presenter nick robinson feigned horror when he interviewed the justice secretary, alex chalk, on the today programme this morning. but actually fair play to the tory cabinet minister who for once stuck by his erstwhile colleague . watch. colleague. watch. >> do you think telling people to f off back to france who might have genuine claims to be asylum seekers who might have escaped war and persecution in do you think that is the reflection of a tolerant , reflection of a tolerant, outward facing nation? >> we're a country that believes in fairness and playing by the rules and those who don't play by the rules, who don't take advantage of those opportunities. we provide and try to jump the queue rightly cause indignation . and i think cause indignation. and i think lee was expressing that indignation in his own way. but
3:46 am
there nothing unreasonable there was nothing unreasonable in about what he was in principle about what he was saying. shortly after number saying. and shortly after number ten confirmed they were backing lee's comments, saying the justice speaking justice secretary was speaking on the government. justice secretary was speaking on that the government. justice secretary was speaking on that is the government. justice secretary was speaking on that is the re government. justice secretary was speaking on that is the response.1ent. justice secretary was speaking on that is the response. sot. >> that is the response. so richard tice , do you have any richard tice, do you have any issues with what lee anderson had to say? >> no, i think credit where credit is due and i put out a piece on social media immediately supporting lee. i think he speaks for the majority of sensible , sane people in this of sensible, sane people in this country. and actually the justice secretary is quite right here that we are a tolerant, generous and very hospitable nafion generous and very hospitable nation to tolerant, to know, for genuine refugees. and we've been one of the most welcoming over 400,000 people in the last 7 or 8 years. ukraine, we know what genuine refugees look like , genuine refugees look like, women and children coming from a war torn nation, not people coming on boats from , um, a coming on boats from, um, a safe, lovely country that many of us go on holiday every year. so i think actually lee has
3:47 am
spoken up and it's a dividing line now isn't it, between people who say enough is enough all over the country , week in, all over the country, week in, week out , i am all over the country, week in, week out, i am hearing of more hotels being commandeered, another one close to an area i know very well, being commandeered this week . and the commandeered this week. and the numbers are just going up and up and you're seeing protests emerge , whether it's on the emerge, whether it's on the barge, whether it's llanelli. and tell you what, i think and i tell you what, i think westminster and people in the mainstream media like nick robinson, they totally and utterly have no idea how angry, how furious people are up and down the country who know what fairness looks like , who knows fairness looks like, who knows what welcoming and generosity looks like. we do not like being abused, exploited and manipulated. and that is what is going on at the moment. and the laughable suggestion that had a fear of water. give me a break. these people have just come over 23 miles of water to get here, for heaven's sake. all of that should have been thrown straight out. >> but these are the lawyers.
3:48 am
>> but these are the lawyers. >> these are the lawyers, the dodgy i suspect one dodgy lawyers, i suspect the one who fraud is who submitted fraud claims is not companies. not just 40 companies. >> all over the place. >> it's all over the place. richard do we need to start properly thinking, though, about how we create a deterrent actually by by the way, the migrants are housed in the uk. >> so i look over to new york, a very liberal state, but because of another overwhelming migrant crisis in that city, they are now facing the very real prospect of having to create a tent city in the middle of central park, where migrants will be housed in tents. now at the moment we are paying over £7 million a day, at least just for hotels, and it's probably actually much higher than that. then you add in the cost of things like the bibby stockholm. so do we need to start looking at creating the mistake in the first place? >> being way generous >> was being way too generous with accommodation that was with the accommodation that was offered. should have been it
3:49 am
offered. it should have been it should have been functional. it should have been functional. it should have been basic and people been people should have been processed used to be processed like they used to be within a of what within a couple of weeks. what about 15, 15 years about what happened 15, 15 years ago? what about whether we can do whether it's whether it's do it, whether it's whether it's sort of temporary accommodation in, you tented structures in, you know, tented structures 7 in, you know, tented structures ? i mean, let's remember, that's what un provides in what the un itself provides in adjacent countries to the war zones. that is the un standard accommodation. and we could say, well, we can do better than that, but the key thing is process quickly. but the real key thing, and we're the only party that tells it as it is the only way you stop this huge crisis, which is now a national security threat, is you pick people up safely out of the boats, you put them into the border force cutters and you legally, lawfully take them back to dunkirk and calais. and you say france , we're allowed to say to france, we're allowed to do the international do this under the international treaty. of course, then they'll do proper a proper with do a proper a proper deal with us. it works because the us. we know it works because the australians did it. and until we do that and show some courage and some leadership and frankly
3:50 am
tell the lawyers where they can shove it, this will go on and on through this year and through next and eventually we're going to run out of accommodation well. >> so that's why i think we need. >> why do you think the price of why do you think the price of the remaining hotel rooms that we can book for events and holidays and conferences and wedding? >> why do you think those prices have gone up through the roof, adding the cost of living adding to the cost of living crisis? because there's a shortage because 600 shortage of rooms, because 600 plus hotels have been commandeered for the asylum seekers and it's people have had enough. seekers and it's people have had enough . i'm detecting a rising enough. i'm detecting a rising fury, a rising level of anger and distress . and i don't know and distress. and i don't know where this where this ends, but but, you know, we are heading to a bad place. and i'm afraid most of westminster, the media and too many people in within the sort of political class , they sort of political class, they simply don't understand and how serious it is on the streets.
3:51 am
>> and could there be a tidal wave change coming? i mean, i know we've had so many discussions in the past about whether reform uk can truly break through under the first post, the first past the post system. however over a leaked channel 4 poll tonight is predicting absolute catastrophe for the conservative party at the next election. excellent. they are on just over nine county seats, so this would be a landslide like we haven't seen since 1990. >> what i can tell you, is there a chance for reform? >> what i can tell you is that as every week goes by, dan, more and more people are getting in touch are coming up to our candidates. >> all over the country, getting in touch with me and saying, you're you're right. we like what you're saying . we know you what you're saying. we know you stand up for ordinary, decent folk up and down the country who've enough of this who've had enough of this nonsense, had enough of the main two and i think two parties. and yeah, i think there change coming and there is a sea change coming and when comes, like a tidal when it comes, it's like a tidal wave. quite know what wave. you never quite know what it is. what event it is. but i

when you've got things like tory sleaze, all the stuff that's going the ppe scandal, going on, the ppe scandal, there's so going on, which there's so much going on, which is unrelated. but about is unrelated. but what about i think it's really interesting. i think it's really interesting. i think really interesting think it's really interesting that a newspaper has done an investigation, found something and she's jumped on this bandwagon. and what it is bandwagon. and what it does is it plays whole narrative it plays to the whole narrative that it's these lefty lawyers who are stopping things, law who are stopping things, the law is if people are in a is the law. if people are in a situation where there entitled to stay but they don't know that they need the lawyer's help there, they well, they are suella braverman's job to be looking into this. >> so she absolutely should be. but yeah, they're corrupt. these lawyers are corrupt. they call themselves rights themselves human rights lawyers. they're making they're not. they're making money out of illegal immigration. what they're money out of illegal immigistion. what they're money out of illegal immigis they're what they're money out of illegal immigis they're encouragingre doing is they're encouraging unsafe journeys and illegal activity. should doing activity. they should be doing the we saw the opposite. you know, we saw this they said that some of this week they said that some of these illegal immigrants are they fear of water they have severe fear of water after taking dodgy off to taking dodgy dinghies over the channel >> well, how did how did they get across the channel so they can't stay in a in a sturdy

dolls? fine. play with dolls. but you're a boy, right? playing with right. you with dolls. that's right. you want wear pink? all right, want to wear pink? all right, cool. but you're cool. we're pink. but you're a boy. just personally come from boy. i just personally come from an era where a man was a man and an era where a man was a man and a was a woman. a woman was a woman. >> now, predictably, many trans activists have hounded ne—yo, >> now, predictably, many trans actirhes have hounded ne—yo, >> now, predictably, many trans actirhe seemed ounded ne—yo, >> now, predictably, many trans actirhe seemed torded ne—yo, >> now, predictably, many trans actirhe seemed to feel ne—yo, >> now, predictably, many trans actirhe seemed to feel forced , >> now, predictably, many trans actirhe seemed to feel forced to and he seemed to feel forced to say sorry. >> after that appearance went viral. writing i'd like to express my deepest apologies to anyone that i may have hurt with my comments on parenting and gender identity. i've always been an advocate for love and inclusivity , inclusivity, but inclusivity, inclusivity, but the saga took an unexpected twist . when ne—yo then took to twist. when ne—yo then took to instagram to withdraw his apology that he said was written by his pr watch . by his pr watch. >> first and foremost, i do not apologise for having an opinion on this matter. i am a 43 year old hetero sexual man raising five boys and two girls. okay, that's my reality. somebody asked my opinion on this matter and this is how i feel. i will
4:18 am
never be okay with allowing a child to make a decision that detrimental to their life . detrimental to their life. >> joining me live now , a man >> joining me live now, a man who knows exactly how ne—yo and amanda abbington must be feeling. former mumford and sons member turned star podcaster winston marshall, who faced a vicious online backlash simply for reviewing a book about antifa by the journalist andy neo . so, winston, this is neo. so, winston, this is fascinating , isn't it? because fascinating, isn't it? because to major celebrities on both sides of the atlantic for being forced to apologise for something that not only they believe . winston but the vast believe. winston but the vast majority of american jews and brits also believe . brits also believe. >> well , i'm brits also believe. >> well, i'm not so gloomy about what's happened, actually. >> okay. >> okay. >> so as you've just shown, those two responsive videos, firstly , amanda abbington, who firstly, amanda abbington, who your viewers will know from sherlock and is about to come on strictly and strictly, are keeping her on. >> i note she did that seven
4:19 am
minute video and you didn't show the whole video, but she doesn't actually apologise for what she said. and what she said, by the way, was that she didn't feel comfortable with a 12 year old doing a sexual ized drag show in front of adults. and this was on the back of last year. we had the back of last year. we had the drag queen, our and that's now moved into libraries. so that's still an issue. we're deaung that's still an issue. we're dealing with it was not trans related specifically and in her apology she apologised simply to those who would not be watching strictly because of her opinions. but she did not retract her opinion. the same thing happened with neo, which i think is gives a lot of i'm sort of quite happy to see these great artists and these are big artists, and neo is a three time grammy award winning r&b artist, sold something like over 20 million records worldwide . this million records worldwide. this is a big star and there was initially this apology , but then initially this apology, but then he did this video , as you
4:20 am
he did this video, as you showed, saying , i'm not going to showed, saying, i'm not going to stand behind my publicists computer apology. i'm going to say what i really think. and yeah, if you're offended, i'm sorry. but at the end of the day, this is what i think. and he has pretty common sense opinions, as does amanda abbington about. yeah what what is a woman? well indeed what is not okay for children. >> so winston, how does it work in this situation? because look, you've been there. you've been there, you've experienced yourself when you're member of yourself when you're a member of mumford sons and you got mumford and sons and you got caught your own caught up in your own controversy. what happened ? do controversy. what happened? do the managers and the agents and the managers and the agents and the record companies get involved and say to neo, look, the only way to deal with this is to release this apology. here's a draft. this is to release this apology. here's a draft . this is is to release this apology. here's a draft. this is what you should post. we'll do it on your behalf. is that what goes down? >> i think that this particular incident is interesting, interesting and highlighting exactly the role of publicists
4:21 am
in all of this. earlier today, i was listening to the trial of kevin spacey unfiltered, a podcast by an mcelnay and of course, spacey has been exonerated at the height of the metoo movement in 2017. he was accused by anthony rapp and last month, as i said , he was totally month, as i said, he was totally cleared. those charges were dropped . and in this podcast , dropped. and in this podcast, it's really worth listening to episode two, the apology it describes how he was forced. he was given an apology regardless of the fact that he couldn't even remember what had happened because it nothing actually happened. but these crisis pr, these publicists , they have a these publicists, they have a myopic worldview to many of them are progressive's and they don't care about the truth . they care care about the truth. they care about looking good . and the about looking good. and the thing about life is, you can want to pursue the truth and you can want to look good, but eventually you're going to have to choose one or the other because eventually telling the
4:22 am
truth doesn't look good. and this is the problem that publicists, many publicists, not all i know, but many publicists that that's their problem. and i really urge any artists listening that do they have a publicist telling them to say something that is not true , to something that is not true, to fire them immediately ? your fire them immediately? your responsibility as an artist is to tell the truth and anyone who guides you otherwise has not your best interests at heart . your best interests at heart. >> yeah, indeed. so neo, he's done the right thing. and actually, maybe he's helped us a bit too, because he's exposed the sham of the process a bit. sometimes when you see one of those apologies from an artist, it's not necessary . eerily, what it's not necessary. eerily, what they believe winston is exactly. >> you see a little bit of what's going on, but ultimately it's the artists responsibility to not listen to bad advice. and i start more positively than this segment started a little gloomy, but okay, we're getting these now. it was every week where we were getting some sort of apology or someone getting a
4:23 am
apologising for saying things like women can't have penises. well, now it's twice every week, which seems ridiculous, but at least now they're not apologising or taking back what they said. at least they're just apologising for people. they've offended, but that they're standing by their opinions. and thatis standing by their opinions. and that is at least one step in the right direction. i think. >> well, indeed, and especially by the way, we should always point when opinions point out when those opinions are up by biological are backed up by biological reality and actually backed up by the popular opinion of the vast majority of americans and brits, even if we're told by the liberal elite, that's not what we're meant to think. but winston marshall, former member of mumford and sons, turned brilliant podcaster for the spectator. thank you so much. but coming up, esteemed royal biographer tom bower , biographer tom bower, uncancelled on this breaking development, uncancelled on this breaking development , actually uncancelled on this breaking development, actually regarding prince harry and meghan, including what she's going to do onune including what she's going to do online next. first, though, the

4:25 am
day. so i think come the afternoon rather grey skies for northern parts of northern ireland, parts of western into western scotland down into wales, southwest england and eventually midlands too eventually into the midlands too . of sunshine really . so the best of sunshine really will be out towards the east eastern scotland, south—east england, probably seeing the lion's the lion's share and in the southeast feeling warmer southeast feeling much warmer highs 24 degrees and highs reaching 24 degrees and then into thursday, after a bit of a slow grey start, this cloud will quickly burn away and actually, probably actually, first he's probably going best day of the going to be the best day of the week for most of us. plenty of sunshine and sunshine come the afternoon and in sunshine feeling much in the sunshine feeling much warmer. highs reaching 27, possibly degrees in the possibly 28 degrees in the south. is one day, one south. but this is one day, one day as into friday, day as we go into friday, turning cooler and showery turning cooler and more showery and into weekend, too. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers, proud sponsors of weather on . gb news coming up in weather on. gb news coming up in uncanceled . uncanceled. >> meghan markle celebrated her 42nd birthday by watching barbie, but without her hubby , barbie, but without her hubby, harry, who's flying solo in japan. so is the duchess preparing a hollywood comeback without her prince? esteemed

royal biographer tom bower has major news on this live in the studio shortly. next in the media buzz, though , as staff at media buzz, though, as staff at the university of surrey are instructed not to use phrases like black sheep or indian summer, it's the political commentator, steve hilton. right that unifying vision of that the unifying vision of martin been martin luther king has been betrayed black lives matter betrayed by black lives matter and their fellow left zealots. my superstar panel thrashed that one out. plus, more of tomorrow's newspaper front pages straight
4:29 am
break let's return to tomorrow's news now in our media buzz. more front pages are in straight to the daily mirror, which has a royal exclusive revealing that the prince and princess of wales will lead tributes to the late queen on the anniversary of her death. the couple, they say, will deliver a special message to the nation to data breaches
4:30 am
that just defy belief. that's the headline leading the daily mail. the paper also says that the breach is that the electoral commission and a northern ireland with the name of every police officer was published are not a very good thing indeed. more on the media buzz now with tonight's super star panel. the former chancellor, kwasi kwarteng , political commentator kwarteng, political commentator gb news star, the reverend calvin robinson, and the social commentatorjoanna calvin robinson, and the social commentator joanna jarjue . calvin robinson, and the social commentatorjoanna jarjue . now commentator joanna jarjue. now the woke mind virus continues its rampage across the west with its rampage across the west with its latest victims at the university of surrey, displaying insufferable symptoms of virtue signalling staff. there have been told, can you believe this? to not use terms like black sheep or indian summer by woke bosses because they are non—inclusive of the guidance created by mental health first aid. england reads one way to help eliminate bias is to change our language age to no longer use black and dark to mean bad .
4:31 am
use black and dark to mean bad. meanwhile, in the mail on sunday, political commentator steve hilton has asked whether the unifying vision of martin luther king has been betrayed by the likes of blm and their fellow race baiting zealots . mr fellow race baiting zealots. mr king, of course, said, i have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nafion children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character. now calvin robinson, that's the world that i grew up in and i still firmly believe today, no matter what blm tells me or what the university of surrey tell me , university of surrey tell me, that that is the appropriate way to live my life . but steve to live my life. but steve hilton is right, isn't he , that hilton is right, isn't he, that blm and these lefties are actually trampling on the vision of martin luther king jr. >> steve hilton is often right on this occasion, especially because a colour—blind society is a natural society . that's the is a natural society. that's the way human beings are. we don't recognise colour in that way. we teach young children to be racist by separating them based
4:32 am
on the colour of their skin. and that's this is doing. it's that's what this is doing. it's a form of racism a patronising form of racism rooted critical race theory. a patronising form of racism rootecan critical race theory. a patronising form of racism rootecan blackal race theory. a patronising form of racism rootecan black sheep theory. a patronising form of racism rootecan black sheep be sory. how can black sheep be inclusive? of course, it's exclusive by its very definition. it's separating black sheep sheep for black sheep from white sheep for the of a demonstration the purposes of a demonstration , metaphor. it's not , an it's a metaphor. it's not actually calling people or actually calling people black or white. and the assumption there is that people who are black are going offended by the word going to be offended by the word black . mean, only half black. i mean, i'm only half offended i'm mixed race. offended because i'm mixed race. i kwasi joanna, you get i don't kwasi joanna, do you get offended the term black sheep offended by the term black sheep offended? >> this is this this >> this is this is this is complete i'm complete nonsense. i mean, i'm old enough to remember the loony left in the 80s and they did a lot this sort of thing. so lot of this sort of thing. so baa black sheep was banned. baa baa black sheep was banned. i anecdotally i think there was anecdotally they black bin they were banning black bin liners and all the rest of it. and that was the loony left. in the 1980s, everyone recognised that that was an extreme that they want to follow. and they didn't want to follow. and it's interesting it it's interesting to see it coming back the mainstream coming back in the mainstream now. yeah, and going back to what hilton about what steve hilton said about martin the whole martin luther king, the whole point martin luther king, martin luther king, the whole poicalvin martin luther king, martin luther king, the whole poicalvin suggested,jther king, martin luther king, the whole poicalvin suggested, was' king, martin luther king, the whole poicalvin suggested, was that], martin luther king, the whole poicalvin suggested, was that it as calvin suggested, was that it was colour—blind society
4:33 am
was about a colour—blind society . people being judged on the content character content of their character and what had say , what they what they had to say, what they had offer. and think had to offer. and i think calvin's right. i think by focusing so minutely and obsessively with identity, they're actually creating and stoking the problems they're trying to. >> you completely disagree with steve hilton, don't you? why? well i think that it's a bit extreme, you know, to be referencing martin luther king and even black lives matter when it comes to conversations like this. >> i can see where the university are going the university are going in the sense negative sense that the negative connotations that are attached to saying black sheep, maybe and the word black for me personally, this isn't the type of hill that i would die on. you know, it's not something that i think is priority when it comes to actually fighting for diversity and inclusion whatsoever . however, diversity and inclusion whatsoever. however, but diversity and inclusion whatsoever . however, but what diversity and inclusion whatsoever. however, but what i do think is that when people do come up with ideas like this, they should be listened to. and because there is actually a group of people who are trying to erase our language. >> well, i'll tell you why not so quite recently i was accused
4:34 am
of racism for using the phrase white than white within a column . now, i had not even been considered for a single second that it was anything to do with race. and i actually feel really offended that these lefties believe that they can just erase hundreds of years of language . hundreds of years of language. >> ridge well, like i said , >> ridge well, like i said, things like this. it's not a hill that i'm willing to die. and i really think that there's other things that do have priority. >> then from steve hilton, because that's a wide point. >> do you in >> so do you believe in a colour—blind society or do you think should judge you on your think i should judge you on your race? should i judge you the race? should i judge you on the colour skin or your character? >> i don't think that you should judge me on race negatively, judge me on my race negatively, but have a problem but i don't have a problem with being called because i being called black because i think actually important think it is actually important to that i'm a black woman. to say that i'm a black woman. when you look at me, i am a black woman. whether we like black woman. and whether we like it that's there it or not, that's fine. there are things make make my are things that make make my life from other people. >> so i your point about >> so i think your point about language is really important
4:35 am

union jackass tonight. but first in uncancelled meghan markle celebrated her birthday watching barbie but without her ginger ken husband. so as harry lands solo today in japan, is the duchess preparing a hollywood comeback without her prince? tom bower has lots to reveal on this. he's live in the studio. don't go anywhere because he's up in
4:43 am
it's time now for uncancelled . it's time now for uncancelled. and this is where britain's top commentators speak out on controversial issues without the fear of the cancel culture sweeping the rest of the media, prince harry touched down in tokyo earlier today, where he will attend the international sports promotion society's sports promotion society's sports values summit to join a panel discussion on sport, community and philanthropy . back community and philanthropy. back in california, though , meghan in california, though, meghan reportedly celebrated her birthday early and without harry last week, opting instead for a trip to see barbie alongside her hollywood girlfriends, including portia de rossi. that's ellen degeneres. his wife . despite degeneres. his wife. despite coming off instagram after marrying harry, the duchess also looked set to relaunch herself on the social network with a new account primed and ready to go. simply we at meghan delighted now to welcome to the studio distinguished royal biographer tom bower. so tom, this is really interesting in terms of the developments . you've got
4:44 am
the developments. you've got harry solo in japan. do you think this information about meghan spending her birthday alone , alone without harry, but alone, alone without harry, but with a very famous hollywood girlfriend was leaked in some way? >> well, it is leaked, but what we've got at the moment, which is actually quite hilarious, is that i is actually quite hilarious, is thati can is actually quite hilarious, is that i can only think the sussexes as hoaxes. everything is always a headline. but there's never any substance. so having sort of rubbished the royal family in the netflix and the spare book, which other people did all the work. what's interesting is they don't do any work . they don't raise any work. they don't raise any money, but their charity, everything is always an announcement. and then it disappears just to stay in the news and at the moment, what i find the most interesting is this film , the book of the film this film, the book of the film , the film of the book which netflix has paid £2.3 million, which is peanuts . and it's all which is peanuts. and it's all the so far the greatest beneficiary has been the author , who i'm sure has sold millions more copies of her book because the announcement but what it
4:45 am
always was is all about meghan positioning herself in hollywood . everything is all about, let's have a position. and that's where the hoax comes in, that there actually is never anything made. so we'll see whether this book ever becomes a film. i mean, 999 book options don't become films and the money isn't. there. 2.3 million is peanuts, but there we are. it's all all about a joke they're having on us that they're important. >> is she trying to show us that she's still connected to these big a—list celebrity ? she's in big a—list celebrity? she's in montecito because, of course, we've heard about her falling out with lots of friends. but was it significant that she spent the night of her birthday with portia de rossi, who's obviously big a—list hollywood obviously a big a—list hollywood power player? >> well, you know , she didn't >> well, you know, she didn't get to the beckhams party in miami, which was much more important . important. >> she didn't get to the great oscar parties or she can do is go and see a movie on her birthday. that's a bit sad , birthday. that's a bit sad, isn't it? >> but now what's going on with
4:46 am
harry and this californian start up better up because he's paid a seven figure sum. the staff are absolutely furious with the fact that they are all getting laid off. the company is in quite a lot of trouble. the staff say he's just a distraction with zero responsibility, as is this more evidence of what you're talking about, the hoax exactly i >>i >> i mean, they they've got a big name a year ago, a bit more to head up this company. the company is not doing very well. harry, of course, has done very little for it and can't do anything for it in any case. so this is yet another example of where they get a great headline at the time they scooped some money. he didn't do anything. the company is going down the pan and that has happened a couple of other companies to which attach their name as which they attach their name as well. this is where their credibility comes into question. and so they need a new announcement to show there's new life and to go all the way to japan just to get another headune japan just to get another headline seems a bit extreme.
4:47 am
>> the better company is standing by harry, though they've written on their website prince harry, the duke of sussex , is a humanitarian military veteran. mental wellness advocate and environmental a—list. he takes a lot of private jets, though. as co—founder of archewell, he is focussed systemic focussed on driving systemic change communities change across all communities through non—profit work as well as creative activations. what does that mean ? does that mean? >> well, it just means a lot of words, a lot of hot air, and he does nothing, but they can't actually dump him. it's like his travel company last week. travel? yeah. they want to get rid of him. they want to separate themselves, but they really without destroying separate themselves, but they really brand out destroying separate themselves, but they really brand .ut destroying separate themselves, but they really brand . butestroying separate themselves, but they really brand . but the yying separate themselves, but they really brand . but the only their own brand. but the only brand that is really getting thoroughly trashed the moment thoroughly trashed at the moment , of course, the sussex , of course, is the sussex brand. well indeed. >> tom, you had >> and tom, you had a fascinating piece sun on fascinating piece on the sun on sunday at the weekend where you revealed you were revealed firstly that you were hard because you've hard at work because you've obviously a biographer of obviously been a biographer of meghan revealing that you meghan markle revealing that you are now working on a new bombshell book about the beckhams . i'm sure they are
4:48 am
beckhams. i'm sure they are pretty nervous about that. given your track record, but actually what i found really fascinating in this piece is that you reveal that when meghan and harry were on tour in australia during their royal tour , they actually their royal tour, they actually wanted nothing to do with the beckhams because meghan was so nervous about being overshadowed by victoria. >> well, yes, it was really fascinating about the story is of course , that invited of course, that harry invited the beckhams to come to for sydney the invictus games. >> he flies halfway around the world. he gets there and harry doesn't want to him . he's doesn't want to see him. he's standing stadium saying, standing in the stadium saying, where's and people where's harry? and his people are by harry, i don't want are told by harry, i don't want to be seen with david beckham. now, think reason was that now, i think the reason was that meghan deeply worried that meghan was deeply worried that she would be overshadowed by the beckhams. and if you remember at that moment that there was another meghan that she another hoax of meghan that she thought she was diana she thought she was diana when she was so popular. was in australia, so popular. and the one thing she didn't want to do was have any competition and what's interesting about the whole meghan beckham relationship is
4:49 am
which i discovered is that she took them for a ride. she lived in their house, she got free clothes. she did everything she could to milk them and then dumped them, didn't invite them to her wedding dinner, didn't invite them to meet them in australia or invited them and then dumped them and then in the end they she walked out on them. but i think the last laugh on that relationship will be the beckhams. they'll triumph in miami because they are actually doing better. >> you say in america, in terms of their brand at the moment than the sussex. >> absolutely. and of course, the party in miami after lionel messi got his great goal was a beckham party. but without meghan . but with the kardashians i >> -- >> indeed. well, look, my goodness, that is going to be one heck of a book. tom bower, great to have you here. thank you so much as ever. but it's time now to reveal tonight's greatest britain and union jackass kwasi kwasi kwarteng, let's start with you. who's your nominee for tonight's gb? >> i think the so this is the
4:50 am
hero? is it is it? >> yes. yes yes, yes. so, look, i think a very clear winner is alex chalk because the secretary of state for justice, he essentially backed lee anderson i >> -- >> and lee made some controversial remarks , which controversial remarks, which many people will agree with . and many people will agree with. and when asked by nick robinson on the today programme, alex chalk actually stood up for lee. yes and i thought that was a very it was not only courageous, but . was not only courageous, but. right, yeah. >> and then number 10 downing street, then stood up for chalk which, which was really nice because usually what you see in these situations is like some sort of circular squad. sort of circular firing squad. that's exactly right. anne robinson, your nominee, suella braverman, mp, for cracking down on these lawyers, on these corrupt lawyers, so—called rights lawyers so—called human rights lawyers who encouraging illegal who are encouraging illegal activities across the channel. and joanna jarjue, your greatest britain nominee? >> my greatest britain nominee is the lioness women's football team. i think they're doing an amazing they're putting women's
4:51 am
football on the map. and congratulations for their latest win. and i wish them all the best in the weekend as well. do you what? you know what? >> not often i say this. all three nominees. could go three great nominees. i could go with of all three of with either of all three of them, actually. but am going them, actually. but i am going to with kwasi and chalk to go with kwasi and alex chalk because think as kwasi said, because i think as kwasi said, it have been easy for it would have been very easy for him pile on lee anderson or him to pile on lee anderson or try distance himself and he try and distance himself and he didn't that. kwasi your didn't do that. kwasi who's your union jackass nominee? didn't do that. kwasi who's your union _i ckass nominee? didn't do that. kwasi who's your union _i ckass to minee? didn't do that. kwasi who's your union _i ckass to stay e? didn't do that. kwasi who's your union _i ckass to stay with the >> so i think to stay with the political alistair political theme, alistair strathearn and the pictures of him with the zombie outfit, i don't know whether that was lipstick or he'd painted his face, but , you know, lipstick or he'd painted his face, but, you know, it lipstick or he'd painted his face, but , you know, it was face, but, you know, it was a very silly look for somebody who was to in was trying to get to in parliament a bias. and this parliament on a bias. and this is who labour have chosen to stand in the mid bedfordshire by—election replace. by—election to replace. >> and he's >> nadine dorries and he's effectively an eco extremist. calvin robinson, your nominee. >> care for kayleigh and these are the corrupt lawyers who are saying that 20 of these migrants all have severe fear of water after crossing over the channel in . in dodgy dinghies. >> yeah, when indeed, so, so you
4:52 am
think this is all part of the legal. >> i guess it's a frustration. >> i guess it's a frustration. >> it's the lefty lawyers trying to frustrate whatever the government does to try and stop the boats and joanna jarjue your union jack nominee my union jackass is suella braverman for passing the buck at every opportunity. >> are you just doing that to annoy calvin jo every body, blame everybody but herself. >> all she has to do is process these migrants. then nobody would have any legal loopholes. so she's the union jackass for this week. >> shouldn't you be saying the union all of the folk union jackass is all of the folk on including all of on the left, including all of the lawyers who are definitely suella braverman doing her job? >> i'm quite certain about that one. >> okay, well, i'm going to say it is a double win tonight , right? >> for kwasi kwarteng, because, of course, today's union jack says alistair strathern , he was says alistair strathern, he was the subject of my digest at the start of the show. but i think what's fascinating about this is the fact that labour are now effectively admitting what they really are. they are the party
4:53 am
of the eco extremist. remember, they take £1.5 million from the main donor of just stop oil. they have refused to hand that money back. now they have selected for this crucial by—election a man who lines up with the eco extremists and eco terrorists actually, of the greenpeace organisation. so i think are showing their true colours. thank you so much though, to tonight's superstar panel though, to tonight's superstar panel. kwasi kwarteng, calvin robertson. we'll miss you over the next couple of weeks. calvin on holiday and joanna jarjue, thank you for your company tonight. i'm back again tomorrow for 9 pm. you're not going to want the show tomorrow want to miss the show tomorrow night. we have a superstar line up. nigel farage, anderson up. nigel farage, lee anderson and jim davidson . next and jim davidson. next up, though, headliners good though, it's headliners good night . night. >> the temperature's rising . >> the temperature's rising. boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. weather on. gb news. >> good evening and welcome to your latest gb news weather forecast. i'm craig snell. looking ahead to tomorrow for
