6:08 pm
individual because if you haven't seen the news already, you on you better steady yourself on your you won't your feet because you won't believe literally believe this. you literally could up because now could not make it up because now you've these people this you've got these people on this barge, stockholm . barge, the bibby stockholm. they've now been taken off, said barge because that can barge, because bacteria that can go on to cause legionnaires disease has been found on board. it's basically been found within the water supply of the barge. so not the broader area. the actual barge itself . if now you actual barge itself. if now you are a firefighter , paul, like are a firefighter, paul, like there's a lot of conversation in here about whether or not this board i mean, it gets called like a flirting alcatraz inhumane in all the rest of it. the fire brigade union we just heard as well in the headlines there, they've been speaking out saying that the checks and balances that you guys do, you know, haven't had an know, they haven't had an adequate far . adequate response from so far. firstly, i mean, we'll come on to the actual laughable oil farce that is putting them on and taking them off in a minute. but people understand. but just help people understand. and fire brigade, when and the fire brigade, when it comes accommodation and
6:09 pm
comes to like accommodation and things bibby stockholm things like the bibby stockholm just simplifies, might be just simplifies, it might be quite complicated, but just for, you as quick you can, you know, as quick as you can, just give an overview just give us an overview about the involvement the fire the involvement from the fire bngade the involvement from the fire brigade first place. so brigade in the first place. so i mean, safety, first of all, mean, fire safety, first of all, is quite a complex area of legislation . legislation. >> and we've seen that with some of the stuff that's come out of the grenfell tower inquiry. but on something like this, fire safety inspecting, inspecting officers would be going aboard the barge and they would be making a number of checks. they would be looking at things like is there an adequate means of escape in the of a fire? escape in the event of a fire? they would be checking to make sure there's the requisite number extinguishers . number of fire extinguishers. they would checking fire they would be checking fire doors that. and doors and things like that. and if come to the view and if they've come to the view and i do understand and the union has said that some experts have been aboard and have come to the view that actually there are safety concerns and personally, i'm inclined to i'm inclined to believe that, as you would expect. >> but how does it work then? so if those guys go on board and
6:10 pm
say, look, we've got say, right, look, we've got a concert about this, you know, can the government say, well, that's we're can the government say, well, that's to we're can the government say, well, that's to proceed we're can the government say, well, that's to proceed anyway?re is going to proceed anyway? or is it some kind of law it is there some kind of law that says if the fire brigade service have said, you know, there's concern, then you have there's a concern, then you have to pause. does it work? >> well, you know, if there's an alleged fire risk, then it's not for government to intervene in a particular matter particular individual matter where fire and fire where the local fire and fire and flagged where the local fire and fire an(an flagged where the local fire and fire an(an alleged flagged where the local fire and fire an(an alleged fire flagged where the local fire and fire an(an alleged fire risk. flagged where the local fire and fire an(an alleged fire risk. that'si up an alleged fire risk. that's for, you know, it would be for the people who operate the barge. for the local barge. it would for be the local fire service managers in the fire service and managers in the local fire service to address those issues. i would not expect on something like that the home secretary necessarily to sort of micromanage the situation . micromanage the situation. right. but nonetheless, if the union is concerned that things are not being acted upon, that the safety concerns are not being acted upon, i don't think the union is necessarily wrong to flag and to say that to flag it up and to say that the home secretary should should take right. well the home secretary should should take you right. well the home secretary should should take you go. right. well there you go. >> so we've heard about the fire thing. so i'll come back to you on the broader migrant point.
6:11 pm
but claire, your thoughts on this with the this whole debacle with the bibby stockholm you're on, you're off. >> think there's >> well, i think there's a number of different things. the arguments putting arguments against putting people on barge have taken form on the barge have taken the form of very moral morally charged, of a very moral morally charged, emotional. it's like alcatraz. they're being badly treated , they're being badly treated, which i think has been a politicisation of an already difficult situation. to be frank , because by all accounts, there was nothing wrong with the barges facilities. it's not that you would recommend that people go on holiday there. no one is saying it's beautiful. this latest debacle is actually there is a kind of problem of a kind of bureaucratic nature, which is that they check the water on the 25th of july. they then didn't get the results till the day they were due back on, and then they were due back on, and then they didn't wait and then the home weren't told that they didn't wait and then the homewas weren't told that they didn't wait and then the homewas a weren't told that they didn't wait and then the homewas a dangert told that they didn't wait and then the homewas a danger withj that they didn't wait and then the homewas a danger with the at there was a danger with the water right so water until today. right so that's a bit of a mess. but i think that politically, we all know that the overall feeling is no matter what anyone tries to
6:12 pm
do to deal with the problem of illegal migration and the small boats, there will be something gets in the way. so from a public's point of view, it's tearing your hair out. and as you said, you couldn't make it up suella braverman. i mean, it's like this is just one this is actually a genuine practical problem which they to deal problem which they have to deal with. mean, they can't with. i mean, they can't let people disease, people get legionnaires disease, but the whole thing is not felt like that because it's been legal barriers, as you noted, only 15 people went on instead of the 50. originally, we've heard all of the stories. and so i think that my overall feeling is it wasn't it's never going to solve the asylum problem. it's, you know , the asylum seeking you know, the asylum seeking illegal migration in small boats, whichever way you want to label it, problem by having a load of barges. but just this one barge is now in the doldrums . and from the point of view of the public, it's like nothing will ever be done to solve this. but if i was suella braverman at pauli but if i was suella braverman at paul, i would be going absolutely ballistic. >> stick at my team, whoever it
6:13 pm
is responsible you know , is responsible for, you know, the checks and balances because you the optics of this you know the optics of this situation, like the optics . now situation, like the optics. now this thing is out of control. don't care what anyone says. i don't understand how anyone can get a grip of this right now if you're not prepared to either push the boats back and actually stop people coming in here in the get yourself the first place or get yourself out the legal framework that out of the legal framework that allows ongoing allows all of these ongoing wrangles. not prepared wrangles. if you're not prepared to two things, which to do those two things, which the tories don't seem to do, then i don't know how you're going to get grip of that. so going to get a grip of that. so if you're not going to get a grip it, the optics matter. grip of it, the optics matter. so earth they can have so how on earth they can have this situation where you've shoved people that shoved these people on that barge eyes of the of barge knowing the eyes of the of the country watching you and the country are watching you and willing fail? can you willing you to fail? how can you get wrong? well i mean, as get it so wrong? well i mean, as claire kind of adds claire said, it kind of adds to the whole of shame around the whole sense of shame around the whole sense of shame around the of immigration policy. the whole of immigration policy. >> you know, we've seen the rawat thing that didn't take off, no pun intended. we've now seen this latest initiative and it's not going to work. we've
6:14 pm
seen other initiatives where lawyers have intervened and stopped them from happening. now we can all have individual debates about whether we think particular initiatives are good, bad, whether we bad, indifferent, whether we think going to work, think they're going to work, whether going whether they're not going to work, whether waste of work, whether they're a waste of money, whether they're a good use of taxpayers money. but the key for me is for as long key thing for me is for as long as kind of shambles in as this kind of shambles in terms policy terms of immigration policy continues , then what it does is continues, then what it does is it undermines people's faith in the democratic mechanism, because if for many, many years now, so many millions of people have been saying , look, i'm pro have been saying, look, i'm pro immigration , which i think most immigration, which i think most people broadly are, but i'm not pro unregular ated unmanaged immigration and i'm not comfortable with the numbers coming in and i want something done about it. and they vote that way in general elections , that way in general elections, as they did in 2019. as i think they did in 2019. >> they say that they're not in favour immigration. favour of immigration. >> some say >> okay. well, some some may say that, but i think that's broadly the one that i sent out is broadly set out, is broadly the position. and they voted unquestionably for an to
6:15 pm
unquestionably for an end to free movement in the referendum in and again they in 2016. and time and again they see politicians lining up see their politicians lining up saying, listen to you. saying, yes, we listen to you. yes, your concerns. yes, we've heard your concerns. yes, we've heard your concerns. yes, we've heard your concerns. yes, we have to act upon yes, we know we have to act upon it. know we have to get it. yes, we know we have to get numbers down. then year numbers down. and then year on yean numbers down. and then year on year, numbers year, actually, numbers don't come and some cases, come down and in some cases, numbers are still going up to astronomical levels. then what people is they say, well, people do is they say, well, what is the point of me going to the ballot and voting for the ballot box and voting for stuff if politicians pay stuff if politicians just pay lip me and just lip service to me and just ignore you know, treat ignore me and, you know, treat me you the basket of me as, you know, the basket of deplorables. as hillary clinton said the danger said in america. and the danger then people then then actually is people then turn people turn to populism and people turn to nefarious groups who to more nefarious groups who pick up on their concerns , as pick up on their concerns, as the bnp did in this country in the bnp did in this country in the of 2000. and that's the sort of 2000. and that's i think and i don't think politicians are alive to this. thatis politicians are alive to this. that is the sort of situation that they're stoking up by continually failing. and, you know, suella braverman okay. you know, suella braverman okay. you know, she says the right things from time to time. people are not interested in fine words anymore this issue . they anymore on this issue. they actually want the issue addressed. it strikes me
6:16 pm
addressed. and it strikes me that nobody got sort of that nobody has got any sort of idea terms of how to address idea in terms of how to address it with of that. it with any of that. >> i mean, actually it was >> yeah, i mean, actually it was interesting that you said a lot of are messaging in of people are messaging in saying to saying i'm opposed to immigration i that immigration because i think that pulls absolutely right that pulls is absolutely right that what's happened is because of the absolute debacle and the really actually the refusal or the apparent inability of politicians to resolve this or get on top of it, to act with a sense of urgency to actually behave not just with headlines or with fancy legislation, but to just deal with it . and by the to just deal with it. and by the way, it's not beyond i'm not saying i know what to do, but they can do something. >> i've got an idea right. >> i've got an idea right. >> but i do think i just wanted to say one thing. i do think now what's happened is people who were more liberal about immigration,. but wanted to were more liberal about immig down. but wanted to were more liberal about immig down 0th wanted to were more liberal about immig down on illegalad to clamp down on illegal immigration, now beginning immigration, are now beginning to the term immigration to say even the term immigration is my nerves. right. is getting on my nerves. right. and maybe problem and maybe the problem is immigration per se. >> let you this, >> well, let me ask you this, because you are in part a lawmaker in your role in the lords, right. what cannot
6:17 pm
lords, right. what i cannot i can't comprehend why why have the government of this country not said right? this is now an emergency situation . so the way emergency situation. so the way that covid was this an emergency declaration and then they they shoehorned all of these different law changes and all these things in on the these different things in on the bafis these different things in on the basis of a national emergency, why not being picked up? why is this not being picked up? the fact that you've lost let's face it, you've lost control. i don't even want talk about don't even want to talk about losing. it's gone. you've lost control. putting control. this is now putting pressure services and down pressure on services up and down the country. you don't know half these so you've got these people are. so you've got no or not you've no idea whether or not you've got security got a massive national security risk hands. i would risk on your hands. i would argue you probably so argue that you probably do. so to me, this is now a national emergency. why aren't the lawmakers that? lawmakers seeing it like that? >> there's no will >> because there's no will to. you've hit nail on the you've just hit the nail on the head. mean, that was my head. i mean, that was my frustration with rwanda frustration with the rwanda bill. is now an bill. right. which is now an act, is that i was trying act, which is that i was trying to defend the right of the government to take control of the borders. problem was the borders. but the problem was it a stupid piece of it was a stupid piece of legislation that didn't do exactly you've said exactly what you've just said because limited. and because it was very limited. and one the that i noticed
6:18 pm
one of the things that i noticed was all front bench was that all of the front bench and conservative people and the conservative people who were bill would were supporting the bill would do like saying, no, it do things like saying, no, it won't do that, and we are complying with this international don't international treaty and don't worry, we are going. so actually they conceded lot of the they conceded a lot of the territory . they didn't say this territory. they didn't say this is actually got to point where is actually got to a point where we're prepared to really be radical right. we're prepared to really be radical right . and do something radical right. and do something that where we don't try and say it does fit into . the 1951, you it does fit into. the 1951, you know , un. but they constantly know, un. but they constantly tried to say, no, no, we're trying to do it within the terms of so i think that you're spot on in terms of saying i think this is true of a lot of things by the way, when you have a genuine national problem , you genuine national problem, you can mobilise the population to say we will solve this. say for example , you have it around example, you have it around building houses or anything else, right? creating services . else, right? creating services. and they could say you can come up with extraordinary legislation to deal with this ,
6:19 pm
legislation to deal with this, to actually act as though you're going to solve it. and i, i think that the fact that there is still so much slowness in processing people is a disaster. well, they go where there is a will. >> there is clearly a way. so why is there not that will speaking of things that are broken , the nhs, of course, up broken, the nhs, of course, up there at the top of the list, two junior doctors now out on strike again, a couple of questions for you to ponder. one, do you think that doctors should be able to strike in the first place? and number two, do support them? do you think that they do deserve a pay? and they do deserve a 35% pay? and number do you reckon this number three, do you reckon this is getting little bit is all getting a little bit political do you think political now? do you think there's some kind ideology at there's some kind of ideology at play there's some kind of ideology at play goes beyond terms, play that goes beyond terms, conditions thoughts
6:20 pm
6:21 pm
6:22 pm
radio. hello >> hello there. welcome back to dewbs& co with me michelle dewberry seven baroness claire fox. fox i was going to call you fox. fox i was going to call you
6:23 pm
fox foxy . that was combination. >> you call me at school. >> that was the combination of the red fox and director. i blended it together there. anyway, director of the academy ofideas anyway, director of the academy of ideas paul embry of of ideas and paul embry of firefighter trade union firefighter and trade union alongside me too. now one of the big stories today, we know that the nhs is in an absolute mess now about 7.6 million of us on the waiting list at absolute shambles and a disgrace. notwithstanding it though , the notwithstanding it though, the junior doctors have gone out on strike again today for days. this time we know the details by now, don't we? they are wanting pay now, don't we? they are wanting pay restoration back to 2008. that would be a whopping 35% pay rise . now, the junior doctors rise. now, the junior doctors have been given 6% plus £1,250, which works out on average about 9. so i'm asking you tonight a couple of questions. should doctors be able to go out on strike like this? steve barclay the health secretary, he's saying that the now risking lives . and i also want to get
6:24 pm
lives. and i also want to get into the fact that i think there's a bit of a political element to these strikes to you at home. all of your thoughts coming in on that, but also joining me tonight for this debate , a registered nurse and debate, a registered nurse and writer, sarah jane palmer. hello. and welcome. thanks for squeezing in. we like that. i'll start with you because you are a registered nurse and the nhs is in a mess. i've just been describing. it won't go back over it. so do you actually think that doctors and nurses, etcetera should to go on strike? >> i think it's morally wrong. i can't see how that there could be a justified reason for it, because though it's because even though it's important and important that doctors and nurses fairly, but then nurses are paid fairly, but then again , i think the health of again, i think the health of your patient comes first. and i think would cause unnecessary think it would cause unnecessary suffering by by going on strike. you're abandoning your patients . causing the . it's you're causing the waiting already at an waiting lists already at an all time high million to time high of 7 million to increase even more . and that increase even more. and that causes long term damage as well down the in a couple down the line in a couple of years, they say a junior years, they would say a junior doctor around and doctor would turn around and say, know, say, well, yeah, you know, i might be putting my patient at
6:25 pm
harm, patient going harm, but the patient are going to be a lot more harm if i decide that i can't afford to live in this role. >> and off i go. >> and off i go. >> they say that. yeah, but i mean to attract people by mean to attract people by. by having lucrative salary, having a more lucrative salary, you might attract people into the but it doesn't keep the job, but it doesn't keep them. retention relies on, them. staff retention relies on, i cultural issues be i think, cultural issues to be resolved . think currently resolved. so i think currently there's a issue with there's quite a bad issue with bullying and there's bullying in the nhs and there's other issues that need to be resolved. and i don't think that can just be resolved pay alone. >> well, paul, you are a staunch trade unionist. sarah jane. they're saying it's morally wrong for doctors, etcetera to go on strike. do you agree with that? >> no, i don't. i mean, i've beenin >> no, i don't. i mean, i've been in a position as an emergency service worker where i've voted for strike action and i've voted for strike action and i've taken strike action. >> firefighter , by the >> he's a firefighter, by the way, it's never less than way, and it's never less than than genuinely agonising than a genuinely agonising decision for anybody in that position to have to make. >> and you do wrestle with your conscience . and, you know, trust conscience. and, you know, trust me, people in that position and i'm junior doctors would i'm sure junior doctors would only decide to take strike
6:26 pm
action if they feel it's the last resort and if they feel they've got a legitimate cause, a last resort. >> i think this is their fifth time at the last resort . time at the last resort. >> the point that i'm making is taking strike action in the first place is a last resort. if you've your if you you've made your case, if you feel that, you know, you haven't been persuade your been able to persuade your employer result of employer as a result of negotiations, sometimes you've got that final weapon and got that that final weapon and sometimes have to it. sometimes you have to use it. and the problem is this. if you were to take away that weapon, then what governments then imagine what governments and then and employers would do. then i mean, i don't like the words weapon claire. weapon we're talking, claire. >> talking like he's >> we're talking about like he's sitting saying, oh, you sitting there saying, oh, if you take this weapon, these are people's lives, the life and death situation, weapons . really? >> but the right to strike >> no, but the right to strike is a very important civil liberty. and i'm not going to throw over for anyone. i throw that over for anyone. i mean, we have be able to mean, we have to be able to withdraw our labour. whatever job mean that job we do. it doesn't mean that i necessarily each and i support necessarily each and every happens. every strike that happens. but you should be, as it you asked should it be, as it were, banned? should they be allowed to police, for example? >> can't go on strike. some
6:27 pm
>> they can't go on strike. some of the prison of the armed forces, the prison officers, should be officers, that they should be able to go? >> first of all, i don't >> well, first of all, i don't i don't necessarily agree with the ban to strike for ban on the right to strike for those forces. but what i am saying is i don't want it expanding. and where would you draw line? because you could draw the line? because you could draw the line? because you could draw every single draw the line on every single pubuc draw the line on every single public would say, public service worker would say, oh, a life in oh, well, i have a life in a hand like the services hand like the fire services we've said. listen, just to we've said. but listen, just to go to on the particular issue, i mean, i think that one of the problems here is that most of us perceive the problems of perceive that the problems of the not just to do with the nhs are not just to do with junior doctors, right? the government say it's government trying to say it's junior are putting lives government trying to say it's jurrisk, are putting lives government trying to say it's jurrisk, i are putting lives government trying to say it's jurrisk, i thinkare putting lives government trying to say it's jurrisk, i think is putting lives government trying to say it's jurrisk, i think is really1g lives government trying to say it's jurrisk, i think is really notves at risk, i think is really not on at the moment the on because at the moment the nhs, the nhs is in a complete mess and i hold a wide range of people responsible for that. i we've just talked about what you would do in a serious situation. the waiting lists on non—strike days largely supported by the way, largely created in the modern period by the lockdown measures which the government went for. the opposition went for. and i'm afraid the health
6:28 pm
unions went for those things i think are problematic. do need to be tackled, need to be at least accepted and then we need to act as though there's something crucial going on. but the individual doctors are not trying to kill people off. that's a horrible accusation . that's a horrible accusation. >> the fact is, though, the waiting list are being made worse strikes. so you're worse by the strikes. so you're quite to mention that quite right to mention that the waiting require attention. waiting lists require attention. but the junior but the fact is the junior doctors are genuinely making it worse by striking. and i think it's ridiculous to ask 35. it's ridiculous to ask for 35. do you think that's reasonable? >> think that when look >> well, i think that when look , i'm not in that union, what you demand is an increase in your pay rise or what your particular union demands. >> you must have a view on it. they're asking for. >> can i can understand >> i can i can i can understand that. they're is we that. what they're saying is we haven't paid fairly for haven't been paid fairly for many a year and going to many a year and we're going to demand it. but i'm saying i would actually say that would i would actually say that there things that could there are things that could change in the service change in the health service that it more that would make it more efficient. and would like efficient. and i would like workers in health to workers in the health service to contribute to changing working
6:29 pm
conditions. do support the conditions. but i do support the right strike for increase right to strike for an increase in wages. >> very important to defend. let me caught my ears me say something caught my ears this morning. so did. and i'm this morning. so it did. and i'm going it you in a going to play it for you in a couple of seconds because this was on today programme on was on the today programme on the it was a the bbc and it was a conversation there about these strikes this is doctor strikes and this is doctor robert lawrenson. he is the co—chair of the junior doctors committee at the bma . and they committee at the bma. and they were talking about the situation in scotland versus the situation in scotland versus the situation in england. so just have a little listen . little listen. >> collapse, is it? you would not accept the kind of deal that you're scottish member are thinking of accepting? >> no, because the governments are very different. so the scottish government that there's a basis to work forwards and have a relationship and a working relationship to negotiate in the future. the government that we have today are hell bent on using the figged are hell bent on using the rigged and independent pay review bodies to suppress . review bodies to suppress. >> really, if i may say so, it
6:30 pm
sounds very to a patient who is not able to go to hospital today. it's had something cancelled, who's desperately worried, in it worried, possibly in pain. it really sound ideological. really does sound ideological. the reasons why you won't do the kind of deal with the government, with the westminster government, with the westminster government they seem to be government that they seem to be willing scotland. willing to do in scotland. >> think what's ideological >> so i think what's ideological is the government cutting our pay is the government cutting our pay years . pay for 15 consecutive years. >> see, i listen to that and you can listen to it yourself back if you want to. it's a today programme. radio four. it was this morning and it was that really pricked my ears up because i thought there is an element of this in my view, paul element of this in my view, paul, where it's not just about pay paul, where it's not just about pay not pay and conditions, it's not just conditions. just about terms and conditions. it's about the fact that you don't like the tories. and i feel that what's going on now will strike and strike and strike strike just strike and strike will just kill. make sure that kill. time to make sure that actually the time get to actually by the time we get to the next general election in rishi sunak is back ordered by the on a second, michelle. >> w- w— >> look, we're not living in the 19705 >> look, we're not living in the 1970s a trade union leader 1970s where a trade union leader could everybody out and could say, everybody out and everybody had to down tools and
6:31 pm
walk out of the door to get strike action off the ground. today, through today, unions have to go through very procedures . it very complex procedures. it takes weeks and they takes several weeks and they have have a democratic secret have to have a democratic secret ballot of their membership. so the idea that junior doctors have woken up morning have all woken up one morning and we hate the tories, and decided we hate the tories, we're to strike we're going to take strike action, think 85% restoration action, i think 85% restoration is realistic . well, of is realistic. well, first of all, that represents the amount that real wages that their real wages have fallen off a cliff since the global financial crisis. >> realistic and it's an opening. >> it's an opening gambit. i mean, they're not mean, of course, they're not going they're going to get that and they're not expecting get that, but not expecting to get that, but they're saying they won't go to they're saying they won't go to the table. >> so in scotland, they've got something like 12 points, something like 12 points, something the bma insisting they spent. to be spent. and i don't mean to be rude, way, but when rude, by the way, but when i look some of these junior doctors, young doctors, they're very young people. the work that people. i respect the work that they but went into this they do. but they went into this profession post 2008, profession with post 2008, knowing the wages that were on offer in time, and offer at that point in time, and if you ask me, i think it's a bit rich. so now i'll sit there and say, you know what, i've joined profession. now joined this profession. but now i the t's and i joined accepting the t's and c's it was. but now
6:32 pm
c's and pay as it was. but now i'm going to down tools unless you give me the pay that it should been years should have been all these years ago. don't maybe i'm ago. i don't know. maybe i'm wrong. me. wrong. you cost me. >> a cost living >> we're in a cost of living crisis i mean, when crisis as well. i mean, when they when they join, they didn't know was going be know there was going to be a cost crisis. cost of living crisis. >> a cost of living >> we're in a cost of living crisis. that means we as crisis. and that means we as a channel have got to pay the bills. that mind, let's bills. with that in mind, let's have a the weather that bills. with that in mind, let's have feeling the weather that bills. with that in mind, let's have ifeeling insideveather that bills. with that in mind, let's have ifeeling inside from er that bills. with that in mind, let's have ifeeling inside from boxtt warm feeling inside from boxt boilers warm feeling inside from boxt boiiproud of weather on >> proud sponsors of weather on gb news >> hello there. welcome your >> hello there. welcome to your latest weather forecast. >> hello there. welcome to your late greg weather forecast. >> hello there. welcome to your late greg dewhurstather forecast. >> hello there. welcome to your late greg dewhurst andr forecast. >> hello there. welcome to your lategreg dewhurst and lookingt. >> hello there. welcome to your lategreg dewhurst and looking at >> hello there. welcome to your lateweekend/hurst and looking at >> hello there. welcome to your lateweekendihu|summarised1g at the weekend be summarised by sunshine scattered showers sunshine and scattered showers particularly on saturday particularly heavy on saturday and looking at the bigger picture, we see this picture, we can see why this area pressure moves in area of low pressure moves in for the weekend increasing the wind increasing the wind strength, increasing the risk of showers across the north and the west in particular, out there through the rest of friday evening . not too bad. there'll evening. not too bad. there'll be some spells before dusk be some clear spells before dusk and night, we'll and then overnight night, we'll see some outbreaks of rain pushing in across parts of northern ireland, western scotland, which could be heavy at times. temperatures generally at times. temperatures generally a little lower than recent

6:38 pm
radio. hello michelle dewberry with us all seven, baroness claire fox alongside me, as is paul embry. >> let's talk wealth tax, shall we? it's an it's an issue which divides many of us. and it's a simple question. do you think those wealthiest in society should pay even more when it comes to propping up things like pubuc comes to propping up things like public services? a modest wealth tax?it public services? a modest wealth tax? it says modest in quotes , tax? it says modest in quotes, and it makes me chuckle. anyway, at the top 140,000 people all in this country. apparently this is a suggestion by the tuc . they a suggestion by the tuc. they reckon that a one off wealth tax of 1.7% on those that have assets of above £3 million and then you'd raise it to 3.3. 5. if you've got more than 10 million in assets. and then you would end up with about £104 would end up with about £10.4 billion extra money. paul embery, your thoughts ?
6:39 pm
embery, your thoughts? >> completely support it. it's high time we did it. i think our nafion high time we did it. i think our nation is disfigured by hideous wealth and income inequality. and i think this is one measure that can address that. we've got millions of ordinary families at the moment struggling to make ends meet, struggling to pay their mortgages and their energy bills . i their mortgages and their energy bills. i think the pandemic widened . inequality in this widened. inequality in this country isn't it funny how at the same time, as we see in ordinary people suffering from the living crisis, we're the cost of living crisis, we're still seeing director's go still seeing director's pay go up. we're still seeing some of our corporations registering record profits. we're still seeing city bonuses increase handsomely . so i think there's handsomely. so i think there's a compelling argument to say that, you know, to the purpose of trying to reduce the gap between rich and poor and also the rich and poor and also to the purpose trying to help purpose of trying to help millions families purpose of trying to help millionsthe families purpose of trying to help millionsthe of families purpose of trying to help millionsthe of livingies through the cost of living crisis. yes should a crisis. yes we should levy a wealth tax . wealth tax. >> thank goodness. >> fox thank goodness. i disagree with paul. it's about time. now yeah, absolutely disagree . i actually disagree on that. i actually think that this becomes a diversion from growing the economy. it's always the same.
6:40 pm
it's like tax. the rich sounds great and actually , i think great and actually, i think there's a real danger that you end up just bashing the rich. what you really need to do is to have a bigger cake, to use that analogy, right? you don't just kind of divide differently kind of divide it differently and needs to and what actually needs to happen we invest happen is, is that we invest more in avait have an industrial strategy , grow the economy and strategy, grow the economy and i'm afraid that in order to do that, you also going to have some rich people around . you're some rich people around. you're going to want to involve in that process anyone else. going to want to involve in that profors anyone else. going to want to involve in that profor me, anyone else. going to want to involve in that profor me, it anyone else. going to want to involve in that profor me, it just anyone else. going to want to involve in that profor me, it just becomes else. going to want to involve in that profor me, it just becomes it'se. so for me, it just becomes it's a kind of headline with it really producing much. and you can say, well, it creates 10 billion. i think the tuc is saying. but actually , relatively saying. but actually, relatively speaking, that's not that much. what i'd much rather see is billions in invested in new industries, in jobs, in infrastructure. >> i think you can do both, though, claire. i think i think you can say on the one hand, look, actually we do need to grow the economy. we need to be more competitive. need more competitive. we need to invest to improve
6:41 pm
invest more, we need to improve productivity , of productivity, all of that. >> the investment. if what >> do the investment. if what you've done got the you've actually done is got the people have got the money people that have got the money to invest, you've them to to invest, you've taxed them to the they've gone. the point where they've gone. you what? the point where they've gone. you but what? the point where they've gone. you but that's|t? point, the point where they've gone. youbut that's|t? point, michel. the point where they've gone. youwe're|at's|t? point, michel. the point where they've gone. youwe're not it? point, michel. the point where they've gone. youwe're not we're oint, michel. the point where they've gone. youwe're not we're not, michel. the point where they've gone. youwe're not we're not taxingl. >> we're not we're not taxing them we're not them to the point. we're not taxing to the point where taxing them to the point where they you what, you they say, do you know what, you know, to up sticks know, i'm going to up sticks and go abroad. >> they always say that people go abroad. >> norway, ways say that people go abroad. >> norway, norwayy that people go abroad. >> norway, norway introduced le in norway, norway introduced a wealth 1.1% loads of wealth tax at 1.1% and loads of super people left super wealthy people left the super rich. >> yeah, but you could look at countries spain where countries like spain where a wealth actually but wealth tax actually worked. but people people do people look, people always do that going to be that if they're going to be taxed people taxed more then people at the top think they've got top who think that they've got a bit leverage over government. bit of leverage over government. they've got lots of power and they've got lots of power and influence. they say, yeah, you dare do that to me. i'm going to be going going abroad. dare do that to me. i'm going to be gcases, going abroad. dare do that to me. i'm going to be gcases, theygoing abroad. dare do that to me. i'm going to be gcases, they don't. ibroad. in most cases, they don't. and why criticise those why don't we criticise those people holding country people for holding the country to way that, you to ransom in the way that, you know, just junior know, we've just heard junior doctors criticise for holding know, we've just heard junior doc'country cise for holding know, we've just heard junior doc'country cis ransom. ding know, we've just heard junior doc'country cis ransom. dithink the country to ransom. i think the country to ransom. i think the threaten to leave the rich who threaten to leave are holding the country to ransom truth ransom as much. look, the truth is like the is we've got something like the poorer half of our country, the poorest of country owns poorest 50% of our country owns just the wealth. country
6:42 pm
just 9% of the wealth. country ferries succeed ferries do not succeed economically or socially . if economically or socially. if there are vast disparities in wealth between rich and poor, something like 28% of all the income tax, the top 10% pound, £60 for pound, of course they will pay more than than than a person on low earnings. but actually often as a proportion of their income, they actually pay of their income, they actually pay less than the average punter in the street. >> but it's just that this is the tuc saying to the tuc saying they want to launch national conversation. launch a national conversation. i if you launch a i just think if you launch a national do i just think if you launch a neon nal do i just think if you launch a neon this. do i just think if you launch a neon this. it's do i just think if you launch a neon this. it's the do i just think if you launch a neon this. it's the most do it on this. it's the most shallow kind of argument about what can do to improve the what you can do to improve the economic of people who economic plight of people who haven't and i do haven't got any money. and i do think that the way they're think that the way that they're going is , is that going to get money is, is that we stronger we actually create a stronger economy. and at the moment, there are barriers to the creation strong economy creation of that strong economy . can net zero. it can . and it can be net zero. it can be all sorts of regulatory barriers. there's i'm afraid, trade unions involved in not enhancing economic growth because they go along with a lot on that basis too. >> on that basis, claire, would you oppose, for example , a you oppose, for example, a windfall tax on the banks which
6:43 pm
are earning excess profits are earning huge excess profits at the moment a result of the at the moment as a result of the interest rate rises? so i think there's a compelling argument interest rate rises? so i think thethat. compelling argument interest rate rises? so i think thethat. cononlling argument interest rate rises? so i think thethat. conon the] argument interest rate rises? so i think thethat. conon the basisment for that. but on the basis of your oppose your argument, you would oppose that as well. >> not particularly keen on >> i'm not particularly keen on a windfall tax. what i would like banks more like is the banks to be more concerned investment in concerned with investment and in money and ensuring that money is invested well instead of, as we know, playing politics, which is what they're the what they're doing at the moment. there's moment. so for me, there's a danger here. i mean, i've been you will be familiar we've been heanng you will be familiar we've been hearing these arguments 20 hearing these arguments for 20 years. 30 years or 40 years. right. or 30 years or 40 years. right. or 30 years or 40 years. it lacks imagination. it's not ambitious . it's not very ambitious. >> know, i always say about >> you know, i always say about this conversation, this national conversation, if you a national you want to start a national conversation, why you conversation, why don't you create conversation conversation, why don't you create a conversation conversation, why don't you create a voluntary:onversation conversation, why don't you create a voluntary:onvcode ion conversation, why don't you create a voluntary:onvcode ?�*| conversation, why don't you create a voluntary:onvcode ? such about a voluntary tax code? such about a voluntary tax code? such a thing exists already, but actually all people actually all these people that do desperately want to pay more tax and they to . off you tax and they have to. off you go. then. i always that . go go. then. i always say that. go on. prepare to hmrc now on. you can prepare to hmrc now if you are so inclined to do so. listen i've got a great topic coming up for you, so i'm going to cut this short because to cut this one short because i'm you after the break, i'm asking you after the break, why are we so desperately intent
6:44 pm
to remove the innocence from our children? it's happening every where you look now, why you tell
6:45 pm
6:46 pm
6:47 pm
hi there, michelle dewberry tools seven alongside me, baroness claire fox and paul embery. let's get straight into our final topic because it's something that we all are very passionate about . and it's the passionate about. and it's the question is simple why do we keep removing the innocence away from our children? it's happening everywhere. but the thing that caught my eye today was a book. it's a children's book princess diana. book all about princess diana. and it goes on. i mean, when you actually look at this book, it's the little people big dreams series. you might be familiar with this book and with it, but in this book and i'll try and get up on the i'll try and get it up on the screen to show you, it talks about diana. yeah, about princess diana. yeah, great. on to great. but then it goes on to say, story short, her say, that long story short, her husband having an affair and husband was having an affair and she developed this eating disorder called bulimia . and disorder called bulimia. and she's going on about whenever
6:48 pm
she's going on about whenever she alone , she basically she felt alone, she basically ate of cakes. and then ate all of the cakes. and then she sick. claire she made herself sick. claire why does a child why can't a child just learn about a princess? why do we have to involve the cheating husband and the on in society? >> i mean, the worst thing about this is that reading when you're a kid can be the device through which. >> cheers, by the way . cheers. >> cheers, by the way. cheers. got that bit me. >> i'm not being all earnest and serious. >> sorry. i apologise. sorry. >> i'm saying when you're a child reading a book can be the absolutely brilliant thing where your imagination is fired up or your imagination is fired up or you can go to you know, fantasy lands. you know, all of the ways that we have children's literature is to allow them to develop their thinking skills. this is not about dreaming. this is nightmare land. and i'm afraid that a lot of children's books, literature are now being used as kind of lessons , as in used as kind of lessons, as in the worst kind of pessimism. i mean, goodness knows, if anything's going to make you body conscious when you're a
6:49 pm
little girl, right . is body conscious when you're a little girl, right. is dreaming of if i little girl, right. is dreaming ofifi eat little girl, right. is dreaming of if i eat the wrong food, i might end up with bulimia. you know, i want people to want to grow up to be princesses, even though it's a daft thing because it's something aspire to or it's something to aspire to or they can want to grow up to be. firefighter don't care what it is, what you don't want is is, but what you don't want is to problematise everything. is, but what you don't want is t
6:50 pm
that, you know, kids read today. >> contemporary stuff. and i don't think that that change has necessarily been all for the better. i mean, we have to avoid the pitfall of saying, you know, everything is terrible today. everything was much better when we were kids. but do feel that we were kids. but i do feel that we were kids. but i do feel that we stealing the innocence of we are stealing the innocence of kids this. it's kids with stuff like this. it's almost like we want bring almost like we want to bring them into the grown up world and burden them with problems burden them with the problems that grown ups have, which are actually, you know, grown up issues. think kids issues. and i don't think kids should be sharing. should necessary be sharing. and i you can give kids too i think, you can give kids too much info on stuff like this. you can you almost and it's the law of unintended consequences , law of unintended consequences, isn't it, where you almost sign post them to these conditions is and the whole thing becomes a bit self—fulfilling and kids by learning about things like this , suddenly think, oh, have i got bulimia ? and we've seen bulimia? and we've seen a similar thing, i think with the whole kind of mental health industry over recent years. look, there are some people in society serious society who have serious clinical mental health conditions and they need compassion and they need
6:51 pm
treatment. of course they do. but i'm concerned that actually it's almost for some people become a bit of a fashion accessory where we've become so obsessed telling people, obsessed with telling people, check your mental health and actually ordinary everyday human emotions like grief and sadness and disappointment and your relationships broken up. so you're distraught about that are actually being categorised as mental health conditions. and in doing that, i think we're actually taking the resilience away from people and we're saying to kids, you don't have the capacity to deal with this because got medical because you've got a medical condition, so get condition, so go and get treatment. i think that's a real danger society. danger in society. >> the things, paul, that >> one of the things, paul, that you've really you've just said, that's really right. kind of wrote right. i mean, i kind of wrote about this in my book on free speech when i was trying to understand snowflake understand generation snowflake , things that understand generation snowflake , dawned things that understand generation snowflake , dawned on things that understand generation snowflake , dawned on methings that understand generation snowflake , dawned on me wasjs that really dawned on me was why would school would kids in a primary school be around saying, i've got be going around saying, i've got anxiety , i've got trauma, anxiety, i've got trauma, there's 7 or 6, seven, right. and they're using the language of the therapeutic industry and what you know is, is that not that they might not be a bit fed
6:52 pm
