that we kind of regularly accept as part of our lives and as part of our lives . those of our lives. those sensitivities allow us to get satisfaction and to actually gain some kind of pleasure and accomplishment in life. and so we kind of seek them out, she will have been completely blind to these. it doesn't exist in her world. so she will have been on a voyage of discovery throughout her life looking for what actually would satisfy her, what actually would satisfy her, what actually, you know , pulled what actually, you know, pulled her in and actually made something out of her life. and what she will have discovered bit by bit is that controlling others or having someone vulnerable that she can manipulate and to actually produce extreme emotions in other people , all which which other people, all which which would not have gone through to her, but it would have amused her, but it would have amused her to some degree. i know it sounds really awful, but she discovered this bit by bit. she placed herself in. >> you think she'll have been? you think there's a chance that she might have amused by

she might have been amused by killing babies? i ask you killing babies? can i ask you this question? could just this question? if you could just come here. i'm just come back to me here. i'm just going to do a little bit of a snapshot of some of today's front pages with you. i mean, we've our faces we've got the express, our faces on of it. you'll get on the front of it. you'll get where i'm going this in a where i'm going with this in a second. on the sun as well. second. it's on the sun as well. it's on the times. it's on the mail. it's on absolutely every single one of them. will she be amused this? amused by this? >> and probably not >> and she would probably not enjoy because she's caught. enjoy that because she's caught. she would not enjoy the kind of attention that she's getting in terms of it's going against the kind of image that she was trying to establish . she was trying to establish. she was trying to establish. she was trying to establish herself as an angel of mercy, as someone who is there, there at the magic moment where someone is slipping away, someone very vulnerable is slipping away. and she's there to save them. and but she did the pushing . she's the one who the pushing. she's the one who actually put them in that jeopardy in the first place in order to create that scenario. and that is where the pleasure comes that level of comes from. that level of control over others and that

sadomasochistic relationship with their relatives and other professionals. at the time , professionals. at the time, combating with them to justify what she's what she's done, that she didn't do it deliberately , she didn't do it deliberately, that this was just a consequence of other people's actions. it wasn't her. she was the angel of mercy. she was the one doing good. that would be her idea of what was driving her. >> okay, so we've kind of touched on that. maybe what drove her to do it either born with some kind of psychopathic tendencies may be clearing up that question of whether or not anyone can be born evil, which i think we maybe are assuming that anyone can be born evil, which i thin actuallyybe are assuming that anyone can be born evil, which i thin actually was are assuming that anyone can be born evil, which i thin actually was also ssuming that anyone can be born evil, which i thin actually was also how ing that anyone can be born evil, which i thin actually was also how shethat she actually was also how she would have reacted to the initial press coverage after her sentencing yesterday. but david, she up this morning in hmp she woke up this morning in hmp low newton, where unless she's transferred to another prison, she will literally spend the rest of life. okay. a lot of rest of her life. okay. a lot of anger about the kind of prison that is, whether she'll have access the boutique. access to the fashion boutique. for example, a nice pink single room, one would imagine she will be in a single room for her own

safety. but david, how will she cope, think ? someone cope, do you think? someone of her someone of her her psychology, someone of her disposition , spending the rest disposition, spending the rest of her life behind bars? do you think she's capable of self—harm? i know she'll be under watch . under watch. >> well, that would be the prime idea. is that as with , say, you idea. is that as with, say, you know, fred west or shipman , know, fred west or shipman, etcetera, they decided that they were not to going be told what was going to happen to them for the rest of their life. and they took the power themselves and committed suicide. therefore keeping control to the absolute end. and she is of that mentality. she is possibly someone that who could try and do that , probably skilfully do that, probably skilfully using any kind of chemicals that are at her disposal and a medical abilities. how ever she could also be of the type that will be completely unfazed. okay they're going to cook my meals. they're going to do this for me. i'll treat them as servants and, you know, have that kind of

mentality, be that in a way, she is still special and therefore, you know, she can cope with this and try and make the best of it somehow. so and would never somehow. so and she would never really start feeling guilty and remorseful and maybe shouldn't have done that or even or even i shouldn't have got caught. i think there was a certain amount of acceptance as she was led into the car that , oh, well, into the car that, oh, well, this was going to happen anyway , you know. >> david, thank you very, very much. david holmes there. doctor david holmes, who is a criminal psychologist who will be having a little look again inside that prison shortly. we're also going to on in the to be asking later on in the show how she can expect to fare in prison. what will her contact be like with other inmates ? what be like with other inmates? what kind security? and a kind of security? and to a degree , preferential treatment degree, a preferential treatment will and what you just will she have? and what you just heard there heard from doctor david, there is guesstimate , really an is a guesstimate, really an educated guesstimate of the psychology of lucy going psychology of lucy letby going forward. couple of things psychology of lucy letby going forwarout couple of things psychology of lucy letby going forwarout for couple of things psychology of lucy letby going forwarout for me»uple of things psychology of lucy letby going forwarout for me there. »f things psychology of lucy letby going forwarout for me there. you ngs stood out for me there. you know, remorse, no real know, no remorse, no real acceptance what she's acceptance of what she's done. and why care so deeply and that's why i care so deeply about what i keep banging on

about, is getting real about, which is getting real justice for killers for and violent offenders. now, following lucy letby failure to appearin following lucy letby failure to appear in court yesterday, gb news can exclusively reveal that judges will now be given explicit powers to order convicted prisoners to attend and hear their sentencing . and hear their sentencing. there's a lot of heavy lifting being done by that word. will there be okay? because that relies on the will of our politicians . allen's pushing politicians. allen's pushing that through . the mother of that through. the mother of olivia pratt—korbel is joining calls for criminals to face their victims in court. a year on from her daughter's murder. >> important for the offenders to listen to the pain that they've caused and the pain that is ongoing . they've caused and the pain that is ongoing. going to prison is supposed to be a rehabilitation that first port of call of being visitation should be in that courtroom and standing there

listening to the judge and listening to the judge and listening to the families impact statements . statements. >> absolutely . it is not >> absolutely. it is not acceptable that somebody like lucy letby and countless others, because it's becoming fashionable now for these vile criminals , can swerve that criminals, can swerve that moment of initial rehabilitation , that that initial moment of really realising the impact that what they have done has had on their victims families. and of course , actually hearing their course, actually hearing their sentence handed down to them and then go and spend the rest of their lives probably under extensive protection in a single room , micromanaged in a room, being micromanaged in a prison. that in lucy letby case, apparently even contains a fashion boutique chic. let's get all the details on the government's plans now. talk a little bit more about our petition with gb news political editor christopher hope, is petition with gb news political edwestminster|er hope, is petition with gb news political edwestminster forhope, is petition with gb news political edwestminster for us. e, is petition with gb news political edwestminster for us. chopper, in westminster for us. chopper, thank you very much. what actually are the plans then actually are are the plans then to make people attend the dog ? to make people attend the dog? >> the government's got a three

pronged plan here. patrick firstly, they want to give the powers to judges in law explicit to order up convicted criminals to order up convicted criminals to listen to their sentencing and listen to victims as they set out the impact of their crimes on them, as didn't happen yesterday. in the case of letby and in fact, those victim impact statements be to her statements will be sent to her in prison where she'll be asked to them. maybe or read to look at them. maybe or read them. she may not want to. and that's the point to letby that's the point to make. letby as you patrick, very as you say, patrick, very eloquently face up the eloquently to face up to the impact crimes. and the impact of their crimes. and the second point is that those powers, the judge be powers, well, the judge will be able to up the offender in able to bring up the offender in in in handcuffs . if they refuse in in handcuffs. if they refuse to come up, they can get an expert to go and assess them. but the idea is to give them explicit rules explicit explicit rules and explicit guidance powers to order guidance and powers to order them up. the third point is that if these offenders were going to use that position the dock to use that position in the dock to try or mock this try and mock or to mock this process mock the victims, the process or mock the victims, the judge to be taken judge can order them to be taken back down again. some of these powers already in law, but

powers already exist in law, but the government very keen to the government is very keen to make clear in law can make very clear in law they can go ahead and they're go ahead judges, and they're expected powers to go ahead judges, and they're eijestd powers to go ahead judges, and they're eijest by powers to go ahead judges, and they're eijest by the powers to go ahead judges, and they're eijest by the victimspowers to go ahead judges, and they're eijest by the victims arms,; to do best by the victims arms, because currently, if you don't go sentencing, you can go to your sentencing, you can get maybe years for get maybe two more years for contempt of court your on contempt of court on your on your sentence that makes no difference. so, of course, for lucy letby, she's lucy letby, given she's contemplating now been contemplating or has now been sentenced life prison many sentenced to life in prison many times won't really times over, it won't really affect her that way. so it's an attempt at getting to grips. but look at the scale of the people replying to your petition. 21,000 matter of days. 21,000 in a matter of days. that's extraordinary and shows why government keen to why the government is so keen to get of they've been get ahead of this. they've been talking a few talking about this for a few months alex chalk, who's months now. alex chalk, who's the secretary, to the justice secretary, tried to attach this to a bill attach this measure to a bill going parliament. it was going through parliament. it was called victims and prisoners called the victims and prisoners bill. allowed by bill. that wasn't allowed by lawyers in parliament. lawyers behind me in parliament. so a new so instead there'll be a new crime and justice out in crime and justice bill out in the speech on november crime and justice bill out in the 7th. speech on november crime and justice bill out in the 7th. and)eech on november crime and justice bill out in the 7th. and that| on november crime and justice bill out in the 7th. and that| on ioutzmber crime and justice bill out in the 7th. and that| on iout the ar the 7th. and that sets out the final year , really, of the final year, really, of the government things government trying to do things in power. labour are supportive. any measures, but the small print important . that's print is so important. that's why think the pressure should why i think the pressure should be on the government to

be kept up on the government to get right. 100. get this right. now 100. >> exactly why i want to >> that's exactly why i want to do it, because what kind of timeline are we looking at here? chopper know the british chopper i know that the british pubuc chopper i know that the british public given series public have been given a series of recently. stop the of promises recently. stop the boats, most obvious boats, meaning the most obvious one. we are staring one. and here we are staring down barrel another down the barrel of another record. billion a year. record. week, £6 billion a year. it's going to get it's to going cost us to get through this asylum seeker backlog. so it's all very well and as told this and good as being told this morning, good, we're going to morning, oh good, we're going to do about when . when? >> i mean, in short order, the government's sources say to me very clearly that they can't attach these measures to this. this crime and justice bill going through parliament. there'll be a standalone bill which will go before mps and peers later this year, early next year . of course, all it's next year. of course, all it's all about the election. patrick the election could be in may or june next year, in which case the time is very much truncated. if they go long into next autumn, there's chance autumn, there's more chance it could statute book by could be on the statute book by by summer. but it's quite by next summer. but it's quite a rush, think. but, you know, rush, i think. but, you know, labouris rush, i think. but, you know, labour is right been saying labour is right has been saying

for now, get with for months now, get on with this. can't the this. why can't you? the government says in reply, well there's conflicting priorities. i think what letby has done has put this whole issue front and centre in criminal justice policy as an important way to show the government show victims the government is on their side i >> -- >> yeah, absolutely. look, thank you very much, christopher you very, very much, christopher hope gb news political hope there. gb news political editor who brought us that exclusive earlier on. great stuff that which appears to show that things are moving in the right direction. you just right direction. do you just want to remind as well, you want to remind you as well, you can to gbnews.com forward can go to gbnews.com forward slash justice. petition slash justice. this petition launched about this time yesterday. we have yesterday. okay. and now we have 21,000 of you sign it already. that shows the strength of feeling out there and i feel it myself in the inbox in front of me as well here. the fact that you lot want justice to be properly served, you think it's a disgrace, a lot of you, that somebody can commit the most heinous of crimes can decide not to look at cctv of their footage. by the way, during a court hearing for their own human rights. it will be too

isabel monday to thursdays from . six till 930 . . six till 930. >> loads coming your way in just a second, including how a book featuring men in bondage gear is being shown to children as young as four years old. and the england world cup fans left devastated after the lionesses used a private exit after returning to heathrow. i can't quite figure out why they've done that to be honest, but

there we go . well, i have also there we go. well, i have also had a really interesting email here that leads me on to my next discussion perfectly. it's from jenny. thank you, jenny. she says, hi, patrick. the left tried to stop any measures that the tries to do the government tries to do to stop the boats. this £6 stop the boats. yet this £6 billion year we will spend is billion a year we will spend is money we should be spending money that we should be spending on aid. jenny thinks on foreign aid. so jenny thinks that foreign aid that we are stopping foreign aid money and using that over here. it ties in to what i'm about to talk about. jenny and a bit later on in show, we'll be later on in the show, we'll be having a closer look at what does the channel migrant crisis mean our foreign aid budgets mean for our foreign aid budgets and being spent and the money that's being spent here having a closer look here and having a closer look really or not really as to whether or not britain trying to prop up the britain is trying to prop up the world. you know, but britain does of more than £5 does face cuts of more than £5 billion year could up billion a year could well end up being six deal with the being six to deal with the soaring numbers of asylum seekers. is according to seekers. that is according to the for the think tank institute for pubuc the think tank institute for public policy research. the warning comes as around 700 people crossed the channel in small boats yesterday. border force officials are expecting record numbers to make the journey in the coming weeks. so

that means that thousands more will need housing and support. the ipp are think tank says that the government has to act or face a perma backlog of asylum claims. yes okay. let's get more analysis now from gb news political correspondent olivia utley olivia . £6 billion a year, utley olivia. £6 billion a year, potentially . that is a heck of a potentially. that is a heck of a lot of money, isn't it? >> yeah, it's a pretty stat that the ipp have come up with and the ipp have come up with and the way they reach that conclusion is basically by pointing out that rwanda isn't the sort of silver bullet that the sort of silver bullet that the government is positioning it as . so they say that there are as. so they say that there are and this is true, there are 130,000 migrants already in this country awaiting their fate . so country awaiting their fate. so awaiting to find out whether they're going to be sent to rwanda, if that scheme is ended up to be proved legal or kept in this country or sent back to their home country. on top of that, there are, as we just heard, 506 hundred migrants

coming into the country most days now under the government's most optimistic projections. if the rwanda scheme ends up getting off the ground and of course, that is pretty big if hasn't happened yet. under the government's optimistic government's most optimistic predictions could be sending predictions, we could be sending 500 month back to 500 migrants a month back to rwanda. now you see how the maths doesn't quite add up there. 500 migrants coming here every , 500 migrants month, every day, 500 migrants a month, going back to rwanda. the ipp going back to rwanda. so the ipp says that what you could end up with this 130,000 backlog with is this 130,000 backlog just getting bigger and bigger and bigger the because and bigger by the day because the rate at which we are sending migrants equal migrants back just cannot equal the which they're coming the rate at which they're coming over and so the costs of over here. and so the costs of housing them, which at the moment are around three point billion a year, could billion pounds a year, is could balloon around £5 billion a balloon to around £5 billion a yeah balloon to around £5 billion a year. that is if the year. and that is if the government does manage to deport 500 migrants per month to rwanda . if that doesn't end up being the case and at the moment, it's still held up in the courts, it's still looking very, very tricky. they could be deporting more 50, migrants more like 50, 60 migrants a month, in which case housing

costs up at billion costs could end up at £6 billion a year. mean , i read through a year. i mean, i read through this one of the big this report, i'm one of the big things that they're assuming this report, i'm one of the big thhich that they're assuming this report, i'm one of the big thhich is hat they're assuming this report, i'm one of the big thhich is fairthey're assuming this report, i'm one of the big thhich is fair enough, ssuming this report, i'm one of the big thhich is fair enough, that|ing , which is fair enough, that rwanda either not going to rwanda is either not going to happen make that much of difference. >> they are also assuming that we can't really deport the vast majority who majority of people who come across channel to their across the channel back to their home and then we have home countries. and then we have a human rights groups a load of human rights groups and quite a lot of labour politicians usual types politicians and the usual types saying an absolute saying this is an absolute disgrace the british disgrace that the british taxpayer this amount taxpayer is paying this amount of every year. what of money every single year. what of money every single year. what of done? and i of the tories done? and then i think, well, main think, well, what's the main reason apparently can't reason that we apparently can't actually anyone or we're actually deport anyone or we're struggling to send people to rwanda? people from rwanda? it's because people from those blocking both those groups are blocking both of well, so we have these >> well, yeah, so we have these groups of rights lawyers groups of human rights lawyers who been arguing the case who have been arguing the case for migrants have come over for migrants who have come over here and of course, that sort of does add to the to the backlog in a way. it means that it takes much, much longer for these cases go through. on average, cases to go through. on average, it takes days for a migrants it takes 450 days for a migrants claim get processed. then of claim to get processed. then of course, we've got european claim to get processed. then of cours

claim to get processed. then of cours

which in some cases date back to 2003. >> allegations against one woman, a former a serving metropolitan police officer, that she was raped six times by this former officer , adam this former officer, adam provan, between 2003 and 2005. and then in girl 16, at the time when she was raped twice by this serving metropolitan police officer in 2010. well, today at wood green crown court , adam wood green crown court, adam provan has been sentenced to 16 years in jail and extended prison sentence was handed down by the judge for these offences . effectively, of course, an abuse of trust in his position as a metropolitan police officer. he used, the court heard the powers that possessed person of trust to try to win

the confidence of young women in particular before going on to rape them and in that extended sentence of some 16 years, there is also eight years addition to all that, he will have to serve on licence, so he will be free, but on licence, meaning of course that he can be returned to prison at any time . should he to prison at any time. should he offend . this is without a doubt offend. this is without a doubt another hammer blow for the metropolitan police coming on the back of recent scandals of very serious sexual offences . if very serious sexual offences. if you'll remember back in february , david carrick the metropolitan police officer convicted of raping multiple women, a total of more than 80 sexual offences he was convicted for and then of course, wayne cousins convicted, sentenced to a whole life term in prison for the abduction,

rape and murder of sarah everard in 2021. well unusually in this case, one of the victims of adam provan, lauren taylor, has waived her anonymity. she has been named and she has spoken very bravely on camera to talk about her ordeal, very bravely on camera to talk about her ordeal , to talk about, about her ordeal, to talk about, first of all, how angry she is with the way in which this officer abused his position of trust , angry officer abused his position of trust, angry at what he done to me. >> i'm angry about who he was. you know, he was a police officer. and we go to them to be protected. and i wasn't protected. and i wasn't protected . and i can only blame protected. and i can only blame him for that. you know, he'd done this to me, no one else. and i'm angry for the lack of remorse that he's shown throughout this whole process . throughout this whole process. i've been to court three times. you know, he still fully denies what he's done. and i just feel like even after being in prison

for a certain amount of years, he's not had time to reflect and he's not had time to reflect and he's not had time to reflect and he's not changed. you know, he's still who he is. and that was more the reason why i did the last retrial was because i wanted to make sure that he didn't get out and, you know, harm anyone else . harm anyone else. >> well, lauren taylor is a woman in her 20s now, but her life has been forever changed by the ordeal that she went through and added to what what this police officer did to her back . police officer did to her back. in 2010 is the fact that this young woman had to go through three separate trials to ensure that this man is finally behind bars, serving a proper sentence. she was scared at first to come forward in 2016. she did come forward. there was a trial , but forward. there was a trial, but the jury couldn't reach a verdict . it went to a second verdict. it went to a second trial and she testified again. he was convicted , but then that

he was convicted, but then that was overturned on an appeal and went to a trial in june of this yeah went to a trial in june of this year. so speaking on the fact that she had to go through three separate trials, clearly she's also very bitter and angry about that. >> i was always going to fight so hard for my justice. and i think more because of how he was being a metropolitan police officer. you know, he misused his job and treated people like terribly me. so i feel like i had to do everything i could to put him back, back in prison. so, i mean , it hasn't been easy. so, i mean, it hasn't been easy. and i think this has been probably the most traumatic time to go through it. i think because i had the guilty verdict, you know, overturned and it was just really disheartening . and it was like disheartening. and it was like repeating a nightmare over and over again. it's yeah, it's been a lot .

a lot. >> well, this whole case came to light as i say, through the bravery of lauren taylor when she came forward in 2016 after the trial had gone to a retrial. it was at that point that this current serving police officer came forward to put her case forward to the prosecutors to allege that she had been raped on multiple occasions . that on multiple occasions. that proved beyond reasonable doubt when the jury came back in june and found this former serving police officer guilty of all the charges is a terrible ordeal for both women. and lauren taylor says she's not sure she'll ever be able to recover from it. >> i had that justice and it went. and now i've got it back and i'm obviously so thankful

for that. but i'm also really angry for having to redo that again . so yeah, i feel like it's again. so yeah, i feel like it's been hard . but yeah, i feel like been hard. but yeah, i feel like one day i'll get there at a point where i'm like, finally it's over. but at this time it doesn't feel like i can let go just yet, just in case. >> well, during this trial , the >> well, during this trial, the court was told about a history of predator and inappropriate behaviour from this former police officer while he was a serving police officer. he had 751 female contacts in his phone , many of them young and according to the prosecutors , he according to the prosecutors, he showed very inappropriate and predatory behaviour toward these these women. there were two complaints. one by the officer who finally alleged rape. she

alleged in 2005 five that this officer was harassing her. it doesn't appear that the metropolitan police did anything significant . but metropolitan police did anything significant. but in metropolitan police did anything significant . but in response to significant. but in response to that particular complaint, also in that year , another officer, in that year, another officer, another serving police officer complained that she was the victim of unwanted and nuisance text messages from this officer. again, it doesn't appear that there was anything significant that the metropol police did. in fact, the judge in passing sentence here said he was very troubled by the fact that police officers seemed to be more concerned with protecting one of their own than listening to the allegations being made by a fellow officer . so, as i say, fellow officer. so, as i say, adam provan has now been sentenced to 16 years in total once he gets out of prison , he once he gets out of prison, he will be on licence for a further

eight years. if the offence , he eight years. if the offence, he can be returned to prison at any time. mark thank you very much. >> mark white. there are home and security editor coming up from heroes to villains, how england's world cup fans were snubbed by the lionesses when the players returned to heathrow and they used a private exit . i and they used a private exit. i can't get my head around this. why would they do that? unless, of course, maybe they'd got stuck the duty free on that stuck into the duty free on that long flight home. patrick christys britain's

media were barely picking up the kind of views and perspectives

that i and people that i knew had dbs and . co had dbs and. co >> welcome back. bizarre one for you. now so parents in hull have felt forced to remove their four year old daughter from her pre school after they made a complaint about a book featuring cartoons of men in bondage and top surgery scars, which is basically a double mastectomy and the school doubled down. it refused to apologise. so it will a maria taylor from hull found the images in a copy of granddad's pride , a book which granddad's pride, a book which is marked approach . harriet, is marked approach. harriet, believe it or not, for four plus since the incident, the trustees have confirmed the removal of the book and gb news has made several phone calls to the school, though none have been answered. darren grimes joins me now. gb news presenter . darren, now. gb news presenter. darren, thank you very much. great to have on show for year have you on the show for year olds looking at pictures of grandads in bondage and lgbt top

scars and all of this, what's going on? >> i have absolutely no pride, patrick, in the exposure to these kinds of themes for our children, infants because patrick, if you ask me right, this all explains why support for same sex relationships could actually be starting to show seeds of decline because children , rightly and i'm sure children, rightly and i'm sure many of you would agree with this, children are a red line for the nation. and i'm afraid to say, patrick, that that particular trip wire has been well and truly crossed many times now with the issues of sex, with gender, sexual preferences and actually it's just downright ideology that's been allowed to seep into our schools under a conservative government. i find it frankly baffling that this particular case is especially egregious. as you've just pointed out , with you've just pointed out, with this book, showing half naked men in bondage gear, playing tonsil tennis, you know, and parents asked if they're happy for this to be shown to four year olds, nor parent in their

right mind would think that this was appropriate material to show to a four year old. i mean, four year olds, correct me if i'm wrong here, should be exposed to reading and writing. and peppa pig, not bondage , bottomless pig, not bondage, bottomless chaps and bdsm . i mean, it's chaps and bdsm. i mean, it's utterly cartoon . what's next? utterly cartoon. what's next? peppa pig wearing nipple tassels and a whip for children's entertainment. you know it's i would go as far as to say that it's perversion. the idea that you want children to be exposed to these themes so early on who in their right mind would do that? there needs to be sackings at this school if they'll ever answer our calls. >> patrick there is a world of difference between not being aggressively homophobic towards children and therefore raising them to be aggressive homophobes. there's a world of difference between an as and when the age is appropriate in sexual education classes. explaining to them that there are different ways for people to love each other and that that is all okay. but what could the possible justification for be

showing year olds pictures showing four year olds pictures of a granddad kissing another man in bondage gear or someone with those scars? you said there it borders on. i would have thought that if someone approached most schools and said , do you want to show this to book your kids that that would be the kind of thing you'd call the police over? >> absolutely. and it's baffling to me, patrick, that only one parent that we know of at least removed their child from the school after being presented with that book and being asked whether it was okay. whether or not it was okay. because. patrick, i think the problem the other problem here is that the other parents will be far too terrified to actually say that they find it, frankly disgusting to show two children for fear of being accused of homophobia , being accused of homophobia, transphobia or whatever other ism and phobia is floating around these days simply for caring about child safeguarding and age appropriate content , and age appropriate content, which should be the absolute paramount importance to any

school in any moment of time . school in any moment of time. and this all comes at a time when gb news has been reporting today on the music labels dropping classics like queen's fat bottomed girls, right? for fear of offending modern, modern audiences and presumably patrick for offending women with big behinds. but at the same time, activists and ideologues are more than happy to push this kind of content onto children. so we're seeing that queen's music isn't appropriate, but we are saying that the kinds of images that were being presented on screen right now are of people necking on with each other in bondage gear. is totally fine. >> surrounded by kids as well. it's that picture. darren i want to leave that on the screen for a second, if that's all right, because that that picture, i think basically says it all, doesn't it? you know, you've got grandad's you know, grandad's pride there. you know, someone like someone who looks like a granddad in that kind of bondage gear attire, kissing somebody else surrounded by by children who are all cheering it on,

saying trans rights now love is love is love. and i just find that i really do find that very concerning , saying that, you concerning, saying that, you know , anyone would think that know, anyone would think that that was appropriate . and i just that was appropriate. and i just wonder if it feels to me a little bit like kind of the almost like the legalised version of soft core bondage for kids. and i find that remarkable. darren we're going to have to leave it there, i'm afraid. but thank you very much for coming on and talking about it and getting your views across. darren grimes, our gb news presenter. loads emails news presenter. loads of emails coming just time for coming in on this. just time for one quick one and patrick, one quick one and says, patrick, why we sexualising our why are we sexualising our children? do year children? yeah, why do four year olds have to have a look at that? i would be the that? i would be saying the same, way, if it was any same, by the way, if it was any kind of sexualised content. it's not just the fact that it's kind of a very extreme and interesting of it that interesting version of it that you see you know, you would see there. you know, this is why would sexualised this is why would any sexualised content i just content be okay for kids? i just don't see what the need for it is. and who's pushing this

fashion boutique where inmates can buy clothes that they can all feel nice and pretty. there's a communal area with brightly coloured posters on the wall with words like love and hope written on them. ironically, what appears to be some angel wings there as well. lucy letby killed seven newborn babies when she gets to spend the rest of her life getting three square meals a day , being three square meals a day, being kept by prison officers , no kept safe by prison officers, no doubt sent some spending doubt being sent some spending money by her family who it appears, don't think she's guilty . at no point will she guilty. at no point will she ever have to hear the victim impact statement . she can go impact statement. she can go about her life showing no remorse, being shielded from the impact of her crimes, and that is a disgrace. this is why i have started a petition to make killer's face real justice. you can scan this qr code right now on your screens or visit our website , gbnews.com forward website, gb news.com forward slash justice. website, gbnews.com forward slash justice. that's tens of thousands of you already have. it takes two seconds to sign up, and i really do appreciate everybody's support with this particular position. what we want to do is change the law so

that evil people are made to attend court on their judgement day. now, the killer of zara aleena, who was brutally beaten and murdered last year, also refused to attend court to watch the cctv of his crime, hear his sentencing. all the victim impact statements. how was that allowed to happen? zara's auntie farahnaz wrote this today. she said his barrister said in court that he did not want to see the cctv coverage of what he did. he couldn't face it . this cctv coverage of what he did. he couldn't face it. this made us want to make him watch that. he did even more for how can a murderer not have to face their crime in a justice system? it made us angry that he yet again exerted his power and exercised his rights when he had committed the ultimate crime. the current practise and this is vital the current practise allowing offenders to skip their sentencing proceedings was established with good intentions as put in place to ensure legal proceedings could go on in the absence of the offender safeguarding the rights of the victims. but it is inadvertent,

led to a situation where it is exploited, particularly among murderers, raising concerns about the integrity of justice. all too often in this country , all too often in this country, it feels like legal loopholes are exploited by people and that our legal system is there for the taking and it is the british taxpayer or the victims who suffer. i hate that. and i think it needs to stop. so please sign my petition. now. there are practical ways to make sure that someone faces up to their crimes. there is encouraging it. so somebody facing a full life tariff could be denied every single privilege that they don't attend. so television , phone attend. so television, phone calls, access to the prison tuck shop, time out of their cells , shop, time out of their cells, everything. you could deny them that. say you're going to deny them that unless they actually attend their sentencing and of course, the victim impact statements, you of statements, you could, of course, now, prison course, use false. now, prison officers to that they officers need to know that they won't done for using won't get done for using excessive force if they are made to shackle someone and then bnng to shackle someone and then bring to the dock. so we bring them to the dock. so we need the prison need to protect the prison officers, soundproof

officers, equipment, soundproof mirrored booths courtrooms mirrored booths and courtrooms could mean that the criminal cannot cause the disturbance or additional distress to the families. whilst the statements are read to them. and the last resort is this. i think at the very least they could be handcuffed in their cells below the and have the the court and have the statements live statements and the sentence live streamed to them. all of these things can actually be done very quickly and very easily. so don't just settle for the platitudes that we've been served up today saying that plans like this will be in the king's speech or politicians or we want to do it. they say we all want to do it. they say that want all sorts that they want to do all sorts of and then that never of things and then that never happens. so make your voice heard. sign my petition by using happens. so make your voice hearqryign my petition by using happens. so make your voice hearqryign non)etition by using happens. so make your voice hearqryign non)etiti(screen sing that qr code on your screen right now or going directly to gbnews.com forward slash gb news.com forward slash justice. government gbnews.com forward slash justice. government needs justice. our government needs to know strongly the public know how strongly the public really feels about this. let's keep the pressure up so that they do the right thing for the victims and to make victims families and to make sure that put an end to soft sure that we put an end to soft touch british justice . i've

touch. british justice. i've just had it in my ear that we've just had it in my ear that we've just hit 22,000 people signing that petition. so thank you very, very much. bearing in mind that it very, very much. bearing in mind thatitis very, very much. bearing in mind that it is just over 24 hours old and that's not a bad return at all. so please keep that coming. views and gbnews.com coming. gb views and gbnews.com for emails well. gb for your emails as well. well gb news exclusively reveal that news can exclusively reveal that judges will now be given explicit powers to order convicted prisoners to attend and to hear their sentencing . at and to hear their sentencing. at least that's what the government says they're planning. the reason i'm not letting this go is because don't believe them reason i'm not letting this go is be a cynic, patrick. >> you're such a cynic, patrick. i am . you're such cynic. i am. you're such a cynic. patrick but you're right to be because the government's been hanging around not doing anything and anything really for months and months we back, months and months. we go back, don't we, to sentencing of don't we, to the sentencing of thomas the murder of thomas cashman for the murder of olivia corbell. big olivia pratt—korbel corbell. big issue when dominic raab was issue then when dominic raab was just the secretary in came alex chalk is replaced , but now he's chalk is replaced, but now he's been trying to sort this out for

a few months. he tried to attach these you discussed then these plans. you discussed then to something the victims to something called the victims and prisoners wasn't and prisoners bill that wasn't allowed behind me in allowed by people behind me in parliament. instead the parliament. so instead in the king's speech 7th of king's speech on the 7th of november, there'll be a new crime and crime and justice bill. and within there'll be these crime and justice bill. and withirprongediere'll be these crime and justice bill. and withirpronged measures hese crime and justice bill. and withirpronged measures to se crime and justice bill. and withirpronged measures to try three pronged measures to try and force convicted criminals to face the music, to hear their sentence in person to and hear the verdict. crucially, i think even more crucially than than the sentence, hear victim the sentence, to hear the victim impact that that's the impact statement that that's the effect on people who have been hit by their crimes , hit and hurt by their crimes, which lucy letby so ignored yesterday, such a fact. and such a so hurting the families of the victims of hers that they'll be forced to attend court. they'll be given prison officers will be given reasonable powers to do so to enforce them, to come up from the cells they can be handcuffed. an expert can be called in to make them make them attend. if they won't do, can't be persuaded to come up . and be persuaded to come up. and also conversely, if they start to use that being in court as a

pulpit to try and lecture or mock victims, they can be removed. so the idea is to give more power explicitly to judges. there's a problem , it seems to there's a problem, it seems to be that affects the worst crimes because if you don't attend court , you can be have two years court, you can be have two years or more added to your sentence for contempt of court. but when you're someone like letby, you've got multiple life sentences. then two years makes no difference. so the idea of the government's here is to the government's got here is to try more pressure on try and put more pressure on judges take firm action. it judges to take firm action. it happens a they happens in france a lot. they want copy the french very much. >> chopper that's our political edhoh >> chopper that's our political editor, christopher hope that and i do just want to pick up as well a bit on that which is that i don't want to see a situation where you can end up dragging these people to court and then they kick off and it ruins it all and they have to be taken away again. need to have away again. we need to have practical place practical solutions in place here blindingly obvious here and it's blindingly obvious what you can have what can happen. you can have soundproof with mirrored soundproof booths with mirrored glass on them well. you glass on them as well. so you know the person in know that the person is in there, you hear them or

there, you can't hear them or see them, but you know that they can the victim can hear and see the victim impact as that impact statements as well. that qr on your screen right qr code is on your screen right now. in last five now. and in the last five minutes, we've had more than 600 people that petition. you people sign that petition. you can smartphone can just hold your smartphone over that qr code and the phone does really you does the rest. really all you can to gbnews.com forward can go to gbnews.com forward slash justice, share the petition with slash justice, share the petit family, with slash justice, share the petit family, everybody 'ith slash justice, share the petit family, everybody that your family, with everybody that your family, with everybody that you can. let's get some serious numbers here that we can numbers here so that we can go to politicians and say the to our politicians and say the people want people definitively want something i've something done about this. i've got that they will be got a feeling that they will be hoping blows hoping this lappy stuff blows over we'll end up talking over and we'll end up talking about same thing again in about this same thing again in a few time. and don't few months time. and we don't want i'm joined now by want that. but i'm joined now by vanessa frake, who is a retired prison author of prison governor and author of the my life inside the governor my life inside britain's notorious britain's most notorious prisons, must prisons, which actually, i must say sounds like a book i would say, sounds like a book i would quite to read. so thank you quite like to read. so thank you very much, for coming very much, vanessa, for coming on. want to what you on. i want to know what you think it's going to be like in prison letby . prison for lucy letby. >> um, well, i would imagine lucy letby won't be seeing much of the prison for certainly quite some time until she's

assessed by various bodies. >> six beatrice psychologists , >> six beatrice psychologists, nursing doctors , etcetera, who , nursing doctors, etcetera, who, together with the prison management side, decide the best place for her. somebody with that kind of crime would probably be segregated from the rest of the prison population in not just for her safety, but the safety of anybody else . so it safety of anybody else. so it will be a long time before she's walking down the corridors of low newton. but i would suggest, you know, there is a definite pecking order within a prison and child killers and the likes of lucy letby will be coming on the bottom rung and she will probably spend the next, however many years she lives in in prison , looking over her prison, looking over her shoulder because you can only protect people for so long and it doesn't take much, you know,

prisoners are very good at doing diversion tactics, etcetera, etcetera . so for her own safety, etcetera. so for her own safety, certainly for a good while yet, she will remain in segregated from the rest of the prison. >> you said that she can only be kept safe for so long in your view, and that she's probably going to have a target on her back. going to have a target on her back . i going to have a target on her back. i mean, will that mean that in the short term that she is basically in solitary and will she almost have like a personal prison guard when she's out and about? how does it work ? >> well, 7- >> well, to 7 >> well, to start with, she won't be out and about. >> well, to start with, she won't be out and about . when won't be out and about. when i looked after rose west at holloway, we had rose west down in the segregate unit. she was segregated from the whole of the establishment . she didn't go establishment. she didn't go anywhere off that unit. it was only a small unit. nobody was unlocked at any at any time . she unlocked at any at any time. she did some cleaning down there. she did some small in—cell activities. people came to see her. she didn't go to see them. and i would imagine that the

regime will be similar for lucy letby . letby. >> and i'm just going to show our viewers again some pictures that have come out of this particular prison that she's going to be housed in, hmp low useh going to be housed in, hmp low user. so that's an example of one of the rooms apparently, which has got kind of pink finishings to it. it looks a bit girly. i think we've probably got one as well of areas like the common rooms . we'll be the common rooms. we'll be showing you those throughout the course of the show of course, i've already shown you some of them, but what is that prison actually like? that's the common room. they're of angel room. they're kind of angel wings which i know wings on the wall, which i know will people's will turn a few people's stomachs what lucy stomachs in light of what lucy letby, of course, was doing. there's a fashion boutique if you want to it that, which you want to call it that, which is apparently prisoners you want to call it that, which is buy apparently prisoners you want to call it that, which is buy items ently prisoners you want to call it that, which is buy items oftly prisoners you want to call it that, which is buy items of clothing.ars you want to call it that, which is buy items of clothing. and can buy items of clothing. and as as we can gather anyway, as far as we can gather anyway, lucy is immediate family. lucy letby is immediate family. anyway, down on the side anyway, coming down on the side of that this is of the fact that this is a horrendous miscarriage of justice. so, you know, maybe we she'll off she'll be getting a few quid off them she's she's in

them while she's while she's in there. what's it what are there. what's what's it what are there. what's what's it what are the conditions like that the conditions like in that particular prison ? particular prison? >> think i think , you >> well, i think i think, you know, the conditions in prisons right across the prison estate are very similar. you know , we are very similar. you know, we don't want sort of, you know , don't want sort of, you know, going back to archaic times and water running down the walls and rats swimming around, much as people might like to think that we do, we don't. you know, there is a matter of health and decency , you know, so , i mean, decency, you know, so, i mean, that common room that you show is fairly typical of a of a in a female prison. you know , it's female prison. you know, it's where prisoners meet up. it might not necessarily be even in a normal wing common room. it could be an enhanced unit for enhanced prisoners the same as the shop. i don't know if everybody gets the opportunity to use it or not. i don't know. but there are certain privileges that enhanced prisoners get that other prisoners don't get. so it's not it's not all as rosy as

it's not it's not all as rosy as it seems. and bear in mind, you know that cell is probably eight foot by about four foot. so it is fairly small. it's probably got its own toilet and wash basin and very little else . you basin and very little else. you know, it's got room for her stuff and you know, i can i can assure you those those sheets and those mattresses are very uncomfortable . so you know, uncomfortable. so you know, she's she might look pretty in pink , but, you know, it's not pink, but, you know, it's not a life of luxury much as some people might think that it is . people might think that it is. >> no. well, that will come as a lot of that will come as a lot of comfort to people, obviously. vanessa we are a bit pressed for time. just ask you one time. can i just ask you one more thing quickly, that's more thing quickly, if that's all right. think you might all right. i think you might have listening in a bit have been listening in a bit before, which just trying before, which we're just trying to this campaign. i'm sick to get this campaign. i'm sick and tired of every time that there appears to be an absolutely crime. we've absolutely heinous crime. we've had letby, we've had cashman, we've others recently, we've had a few others recently, koci selamaj, for example, or were monsters then were these monsters then don't present themselves. as for the

sentencing victim sentencing and for the victim impact statements, you think sentencing and for the victim impithereitements, you think sentencing and for the victim impithere shoulds, you think sentencing and for the victim impithere should be you think sentencing and for the victim impithere should be some think sentencing and for the victim impithere should be some kind: that there should be some kind of real justice, i.e. there a of real justice, i.e. there is a way making live ? listen way of making them live? listen to those victim impact statements. >> i can tell you now when the prison staff, prison officers, man the courts, which we did up until the early 90s and a prisoner refused to go up to the dock, the judge would have a word with the principal officer who was down in the cells and tell him to get that prisoner up there in cuffs or out of cuffs. nowadays the courts are run by the private sector and they don't have the same powers that prison staff have. so i mean, i am the same of the same mind as as pretty much everybody else. you know, i think we need to start thinking of the victims of crime and not focus on prisoners , you know, dictating what they will. and what they won't do. you know, if it was up to me, i would have dragged her up there and made her face those families

and made her face those families and the judge and the jury. >> vanessa , thank you very much. >> vanessa, thank you very much. it's vanessa right there, retired prison governor and that's another interesting element to this, isn't it? you know, if you kind of outsource to private companies, the people who asking, do you who we are asking, well, do you fancy person up fancy dragging this person up there you more to there or can you more likely to get to know aren't you, than if you get people vanessa on you get people like vanessa on the case? right. don't forget to take that campaign. take part in that campaign. gbnews.com slash gb news.com forward slash justice. there justice. you just heard it there from president. from a retired president. governor. on the governor. they're all on the side this. we need to side of this. we need to actually make sure that killers face justice. will face real justice. we will not be letting this go and we will not palmed off by platitudes not be palmed off by platitudes from all from politicians who say all we promised just promised to look into this, just do just do it. gb news dot do it. just do it. gb news dot com forward slash justice. but coming up, bosses at britain's biggest companies seeing biggest companies are seeing a huge despite huge rise in their wages despite the cost of living crisis, top ceos had £500 million in ceos have had £500 million in bonuses. cost of bonuses. despite this cost of living crisis. patrick christys gb britain's news

bosses, these ceos, chief executive up 16% executive officers, up 16% dunng executive officers, up 16% during the latest tax year , as during the latest tax year, as you say. and even the pay rise of these ceos was was about half £1 million, about £500,000. that's their pay rise, not their pay - that's their pay rise, not their pay . their that's their pay rise, not their pay. their pay rise. so if you think the average wage is about 30 grand right there , pay rise. 30 grand right there, pay rise. wow. was £500,000 and the pay of the average ftse 100 ceo up from £3.8 the average ftse 100 ceo up from £38 million to three, sorry, £3.8 million to three, sorry, £3.38 million to 3.91. wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. that's your 16% increase, right? >> their average the average salary of a ftse 100 boss is just under £4 million. yep. >> but , patrick, i'm just under £4 million. yep. >> but, patrick, i'm sure you'll feel sorry for them because back in 2020, during the pandemic, they had to deal with an average pay they had to deal with an average pay of just 2.64 million. how did they survive? there must have been eating baked beans out of out of the tin or something. maybe be the odd fish finger on sunday. but are we really one nafion? sunday. but are we really one nation? and this is coming from

me. you know, i'm a financial journalist. average earnings across the whole population, they were up just 7.8. not 16. and when you allow for inflation, average earnings, of course, actually fell on the latest number by 0.6. so i've done some sums. >> okay. as is my as my thing. >> okay. as is my as my thing. >> and the average ftse 100 ceo, patrick is now paid wait for it, 118 times more than the average worker. but that's up from 108 times in 2020. >> let me just ask here now then, do they do they do 118 times as much work slash stress slash importance ? slash importance? >> they don't. and let me just put this in context. many of these ceos, they'll be texting me now. oh, but in america , the me now. oh, but in america, the differentials are even greater. and we didn't have you down as some kind of pinko. liam, look, these guys are not really entrepreneurs. if you build a business from nothing, if you risk your own capital and your

own sanity and you create a company, you invent something, you employ hundreds of people from scratch and you earn a huge amount of tax revenue, export revenue for this country, and you sell your business and you make 100, 200, 500 million shapo fill your boots . that's what fill your boots. that's what entrepreneurial ism is. that's what economic progress is. these people are not in the main entrepreneurs. they are corporate politicians . they are corporate politicians. they are sitting in meetings pontificale waiting rather than actually creating businesses from nothing. they're managing existing massive business empires . and this is my concern, empires. and this is my concern, patrick, because shareholders should really be voting down these massive pay rises from the top corporate bosses, but they don't because a lot of the shareholders of these companies are big institutions or other companies that are big and they all sit on each other's remuneration boards . and look, remuneration boards. and look, this of thing gives this kind of thing gives capitalism and it capitalism a bad name and it leads economic at least to leads to economic at least to political extremism . so i think political extremism. so i think these numbers are really , really

these numbers are really, really unfortunate. and a lot of people may be surprised to hear me say that , but i do actually may be surprised to hear me say that, but i do actually agree with tuc here. i agree with with the tuc here. i agree with the think tank, the high pay institute. we should have worker representation on on some of these company boards to try and inject some reality into their minds because these huge amounts of money, they come off the profits of these big companies and these big companies, their returns, their dividends, they pay, returns, their dividends, they pay, they returns, their dividends, they pay, they pay returns, their dividends, they pay, they pay pensions for many millions of us. so this has a cost , not millions of us. so this has a cost, not just a political cost, but an economic cost. >> it is looking, especially in the current climate . the current climate. >> in the current climate, it's tin eared, it's completely tin eared 118 times. so we are giving a half million pound on average pay rise to people who are already multi millionaires. and as i say , i'm not envious of and as i say, i'm not envious of them. i've made plenty of money in business myself, by the way , in business myself, by the way, but they are not entrepreneurs . but they are not entrepreneurs. in many cases. they're corporate politicians and i don't think

this does them or capitalism any good. >> liam, thank you very much. liam halligan our economics and business must say business editor with, i must say , promised, blood , some as promised, blood boiling graphics for you there, but more still to come but loads more still to come between now and 5:00. should we between now and 5:00. should we be in to be sending millions in aid to india, about become india, which is about to become a space superpower? is that right? when we have soaring costs here house costs here to house asylum seekers, about seekers, i'll be talking about that shortly. but now as that very shortly. but now as your . your headlines. >> good afternoon. it's 432. i'm rhiannon jones in the newsroom. a former met police officer has been jailed for 16 years for raping a teenager and a female. police officer. adam provan raped a colleague six times and terrorised her over a three year period. he also raped a 16 year old girl twice . in 2010, joe, old girl twice. in 2010, joe, judges will be given new powers to force convicted prisoners like lucy letby to appear in court for sentencing . gb news court for sentencing. gb news can reveal the government's

you know, he's still fully denies what he's done . and i denies what he's done. and i just feel like even after being in prison for a certain amount of years, he's not had time to reflect and he's not changed. you know, he's still who he is. and that was more the reason why i did the last retrial was because i wanted to make sure that he didn't get out and, you know, harm anyone else . know, harm anyone else. >> well, lauren taylor alluded to it there. this took three trials before this man is eventually convicted , sentenced eventually convicted, sentenced to 16 years in jail and on top of that, eight years on extended licence . if he offends again, licence. if he offends again, then he will be returned to jail . the current case that he was convicted on was helped by the fact that a current serving metropolitan police officer came forward to allege that he had also raped her. she was raped six times by adam provan . and as six times by adam provan. and as far as lauren taylor is concerned, clearly both women

very traumatised and damaged by what has happened . lauren taylor what has happened. lauren taylor says it will take an awful long time , maybe never for her to get time, maybe never for her to get over what happened to her. >> i had that justice and it went. and now i've got it back and i'm obviously so thankful for that . but i also i'm really for that. but i also i'm really angry for having to redo that again . so yeah, i feel like it's again. so yeah, i feel like it's been hard . but yeah, i feel like been hard. but yeah, i feel like one day i'll get there a point where i'm like, finally it's oveh where i'm like, finally it's over. but at this time it doesn't feel like i can let go just yet. just in case. well 13 years after she was raped, her rapist is now behind bars beginning this 16 year jail term with that extended eight year licence at the end of that prison term . prison term. >> mark, thank you very much. >> mark, thank you very much. >> mark, thank you very much. >> mark white. there are home

and security editor outside woodgreen crown court for us with the latest on that deeply disturbing case. now coming up, children as young as four are being shown books with illustrations of gay men in bondage gear. is that appropriate? why do we need to show how highly sexualised content , let alone show how highly sexualised content, let alone some would argue , with fetishes like argue, with fetishes like bondage gear as well to children as young as four years old? what is going on here? does anyone have a look into the kind of people that actually want to do this to kids? patrick christys gb news, britain's news .

want to keep you entertained. >> the camilla tominey show sunday mornings from 930 . on sunday mornings from 930. on >> now to the extortionate cost of our broken asylum system . of our broken asylum system. housing migrants currently cost taxpayers around £6 million a day, but the institute for pubuc day, but the institute for public policy research has estimated that accommodation costs could exceed £6 billion a year after five years, if only five key people are removed to third countries. each month, he 50 people to rwanda every single month. now meanwhile, we are sending wads of cash to india, a country with a space programme that is set to launch a rocket to the moon in the coming days is it time to put the uk first, especially considering that a large chunk of what we are paying for the channel migrant crisis ? by no

channel migrant crisis? by no means all of it, by the way, but a relatively large chunk of it is still coming out of our foreign aid budget. is it time that charity started at home? should start spending some should we start spending some of our foreign aid budget on actually getting our house? actually getting our own house? there we go. joining me to discuss this now is media campaign manager at the taxpayers alliance is conor holohan political holohan and political commentator holohan and political commeryou,’ holohan and political commeryou, thank you both of you, thank you very much. to have on the much. great to have you on the show. conor, i'll start with you. do you think that we are just too much money on just spending too much money on other people's problems as well ? >> 7. >>i ? >> i think the problem, patrick, is we've got this kind of target for spending overseas development aid. it's at 0.5% of gross national income now, but it's due to go back up to 0.7% in a few years. and what that's doing is driving ridiculous spending in the foreign aid world, which is why we're sending our contribution to india is about to increase by 72, despite the fact that india are about to land on the south pole of the moon and become the first country in the world to do

that. it's bizarre. and i think taxpayers are wondering why they're labouring under 70 a high tax burden while sending money to have world money to india to have a world beating space program. yeah £57 million is what we are due matthew, to send to india next yeah >>i yeah >> i mean, that sticks in the craw somewhat, doesn't it, when you've got homeless people on the streets unable to get accommodation and some accommodation. of course we also see going to channel migrants. it just like we've our it just looks like we've got our priorities wrong . priorities all wrong. >> i mean, i understand the emotional response to and some extent the intellectual response , the reaction against that . , the reaction against that. >> and no one wants to defeat poverty and homelessness of all sorts, not just rough sleeping in this country i do. in this country more than i do. search me as why we as search me as to why we as a nafion search me as to why we as a nation haven't yet got to grips with that. sadly, though, the £57 million that you cite, that's not going to scratch the surface, if that is put directly towards poverty in india. and i don't think it is put directly towards poverty in india. that's part of the problem. it's about business investments and so forth. to know where

forth. we need to know where that is going and as that money is going and we as taxpayers want to make that taxpayers want to make sure that thatis taxpayers want to make sure that that is going to help the poorest. if you drive from the airport to mumbai, i mean, i have been to a lot of countries in my life. i'm lucky enough to be every continent, be to every continent, 84 countries have never countries or so. i have never seen poverty like it whole family just lining up on the sides of the road. but if we are to going give aid money to a rising power such as india, we have to be confident that it is going to help those people. at the . but i'm not sure it the moment. but i'm not sure it is . is. >> no, absolutely. and conor , >> no, absolutely. and conor, we've got incredibly high tax we've got an incredibly high tax burden at the moment, incredibly high for a variety of different reasons. as far as i can tell. a lot of those reasons are deeply unpopular with the british pubuc unpopular with the british public and are either made to pay public and are either made to pay for policies that a lot of people don't want or pay off policies of people policies that a lot of people didn't the time. and now didn't want at the time. and now here we are lobbing £57 million to indians. so can help to the indians. so they can help go the south of the moon go to the south pole of the moon or we're set to spend £6 billion a year, not dealing with our

asylum seeker backlog. how can we justify that when people are choosing between heating and eating here, people who pay their taxes, ordinary brits? well absolutely. >> it is unjustifiable . and this >> it is unjustifiable. and this is the point, you know, because we've got this arbitrary target fuelling ridiculous spending. some times, making us just throw money out the door towards the end of financial year so we can meet that target. and at the same time, we've got people here who are struggling and having to pay who are struggling and having to pay massive in tax pay massive amounts in tax contributing to biggest fall pay massive amounts in tax co living ing to biggest fall pay massive amounts in tax co living standards biggest fall pay massive amounts in tax co living standards on|gest fall pay massive amounts in tax co living standards on record.ll in living standards on record. it's completely unjustifiable in living standards on record. it's crespect,ly unjustifiable in living standards on record. it's (respect, matthew, iable in living standards on record. it's (respect, matthew, tole in living standards on record. it's (respect, matthew, to be with respect, matthew, to be fair, imagine we said now fair, i imagine if we said now that were to going cut back that we were to going cut back on our foreign budget big on our foreign aid budget big time, could imagine you and time, i could imagine you and i having a discussion. >> and during that discussion you me that was the you telling me that that was the wrong do because we wrong thing to do because we have international obligations. wrong thing to do because we hmean, ernational obligations. wrong thing to do because we hmean, irnational obligations. wrong thing to do because we hmean, i would al obligations. wrong thing to do because we hmean, i would argue gations. wrong thing to do because we hmean, i would argue now ns. wrong thing to do because we hmean, i would argue now more i mean, i would argue now more so charity has to so than ever, charity has to start at home. >> oh, you put very well >> oh, you put it very well there about our international obligations. of this obligations. part of this comes down do we down to the basic point. do we think we have responsibilities to people outside of our borders

? and i'm one of those who thinks we do. i think if we work together more effectively as human beings across the world, we do far better at moving we would do far better at moving towards eradicating extreme poverty and fighting climate change in 2011, admittedly, 12 years ago, india and it may still be the case india had more poor people than the whole of sub—saharan africa. now you might say india needs to get its own house in order. no doubt it does. but i suspect its tax system, the way it levies taxes, the way it spreads its taxes, is not fit for purpose. and while thatis not fit for purpose. and while that is the case, you've got hundreds of millions people hundreds of millions of people in living in abject in india living in abject poverty. you've got people poverty. now you've got people living poverty in this living in poverty in this country but either of you country. but if either of you guys going to seriously tell guys are going to seriously tell me cutting aid to india, me that by cutting aid to india, by slashing our aid budget generally, we are to going somehow the political will. somehow find the political will. but we're not poverty. >> we're not. well no, look. well, i would would live in well, i would i would live in hope that happening. i mean, hope of that happening. i mean, my this would my overall point on this would be that i do not see how giving

india £57 million helps do . india £57 million helps do. irene and her two kids at number 42 who are living staring at the same loaf of bread for two weeks and they're not going to put the heating on this winter. and we and we add that to the cost of migrant crisis. and then we say and we say as well, oh, and then we say as well, oh, well, the best thing to do to fix the migrant crisis is to help go and build up a load of third country. they third world country. so they don't here. who's don't want to come here. who's paying don't want to come here. who's paying all of as well? paying for all of that as well? you it's. go on, matthew, you know, it's. go on, matthew, final word. >> there is there is another side to this. and someone side to this. and i'm someone who does think that aid should mean and i there's mean aid. and i think there's a statutory obligation somewhere there as well that we should be helping with things like extreme poverty furthering poverty and perhaps furthering democracy. government's democracy. the government's own aid found aid auditor or whatever found that india was that the aid india was not helping democracy. but helping with democracy. but there we want there is another thing we want to relations india to build relations with india so that proper good trade that we can do proper good trade stuff with them so that our that we more affluent as a we become more affluent as a consequence. it's a bit more subtle than you're making out. >> i got that. got that

>> no, i got that. i got that look, both of you. thank you very, much. going to very, very much. we're going to have it there. have to leave it there. taxpayers alliance, conor holohan political holohan and political commentator matthew stadlen. right. got time right. we've just about got time to in quickly. to squeeze this in very quickly. parents felt forced parents in hull have felt forced to remove their four year old daughter pre—school daughter from a pre—school because having to because that child was having to look a book that had look at a book that had grandad's bondage a gay experience just experience in it. and i'm just asking why the flipping heck are we kids? basically we doing this to kids? basically we've contacted the school. the school answered. school haven't answered. journalist cook me journalist julie cook joins me now. sorry, julie, we've been a bit squeezed time here. but bit squeezed for time here. but yeah, who to do yeah, look, who wants to do essentially core for four essentially soft core for four year why are they not year olds and why are they not in prison? i completely agree. >> a mum. my kids are 14 and >> i'm a mum. my kids are 14 and nine and i wouldn't let them see this, a four year old this, let alone a four year old or a pre—school schooler. or a post pre—school schooler. i agree. i think it's completely immoral. i also think it's offensive perhaps to the gay community to assume that all gay community to assume that all gay community around community members walk around with think with bondage gear on. i think it's quite generalised somewhat, but i think is but another thing i think is that these children are too young know about this. you young to know about this. you know, year aren't even know, four year olds aren't even taught education. then taught sex education. so to then show book with grown show them this book with grown

men engaging in sexual experiences in public, wearing bondage gear, surrounded by kids is, yeah , exactly. surrounded by is, yeah, exactly. surrounded by children in a in a clearly colourful book aimed at children is nothing other than a disgrace. i mean, i think it shouldn't be in schools. i completely agree with the parents who pulled their child out. >> is it indoctrination, julie? is it indoctrination? are we trying to indoctrinate kids into thinking that this is all completely normal ? and also, i completely normal? and also, i would argue as well, a way of silencing parents, because when parents this say, parents go to this and say, i don't want my year don't want my four year old looking the school goes, looking at it, the school goes, you're bigot. yeah, exactly . you're a bigot. yeah, exactly. >> but i think apart from doing the thing, which is the right thing, which is perhaps understand the right thing, which is pericommunities understand the right thing, which is pericommunities and understand the right thing, which is pericommunities and u1people1d gay communities and the people we live with and most people we all live with and most people are okay about that. i think this is indoctrinating children into into sexualization, into sex, into sexualization, into sex, into sexualization, into , into all the things that into, into all the things that they shouldn't know about. yes, we to know about all the we need to know about all the other different communities we live with engage with, but live with and engage with, but we don't need to teach four year olds sex. we don't need to teach four year old it's sex. we don't need to teach four year old it's so sex. we don't need to teach four year old it's so true. sex. we don't need to teach four year old it's so true. why would

increase it for their own political and ideological benefit. a new report shows that the illegal migration act will trap people who enter britain illegally. they say , into illegally. they say, into a state of limbo. so they won't be considered for asylum. so the taxpayer will be paying for them whilst they're here. and that bill could well rise to £6 billion year. well, that much billion a year. well, that much is why are they in is true, but why are they in limbo? well it's because the illegal migration act relies on being able to deport people back to their home country or to be processed in a safe third country like rwanda . and the country like rwanda. and the same people moaning about asylum seekers being in a state of seekers being kept in a state of limbo also the ones blocking limbo are also the ones blocking deportations helping illegal deportations and helping illegal immigrants with bogus legal claims opposing rwanda . so claims or opposing rwanda. so they're actually exacerbating they're actually exacerbating the problem and they know it. the institute for public policy research finds that even if we send a high number of people to rwanda , then it will still cost rwanda, then it will still cost the taxpayer around £5 billion a yeah the taxpayer around £5 billion a year. was reported yesterday year. it was reported yesterday that people tasked with judging asylum were told not to asylum claims were told not to be sceptical of those claims and

told that just because somebody has lied to you doesn't mean that their claim should be thrown . apparently asylum thrown out. apparently asylum seekers allowed to not seekers are allowed to just not answer questions that they find upsetting . so we have various upsetting. so we have various charities who want open borders, active , exacerbating the trade active, exacerbating the trade of human beings to britain. we have politicians who obviously want to help win the next general election by undermining the current government, by trying to block everything and a protocol for deciding asylum applications. that is at its very core, fatally flawed. and all of this ultimately means that the british taxpayer is going to have to pay 5 or £6 billion a year. it feels a bit to me like we are being ground down to just accept open borders or give up and say, you know what, let everybody on the backlog stay. that's what it feels like. doesn't it? can you imagine if ordinary brits on the breadline and insecure accommodation, homeless or struggling , were given anything struggling, were given anything like that concerted effort of support or treated as a priority

7 support or treated as a priority ? as it stands, apparently there is £6 billion a year on offer , is £6 billion a year on offer, just not for brits. and i think that's wrong . email me your that's wrong. email me your thoughts on this gb views gbnews.com. but yes , obviously gbnews.com. but yes, obviously britain faces costs of more than 5 or £6 billion a year to deal with the soaring numbers of asylum seekers and that backlog , that is according, as i was saying to the institute for pubuc saying to the institute for public research, this public policy research, this warning comes as more than 600 people the channel in people crossed the channel in small yesterday. are small boats yesterday. we are anticipating to be a anticipating it to be a potentially anyway record week in the channel. border force officials are expecting record numbers to make that journey as we have several red days now. that means that thousands more people will, of course, need housing and support. and that think tank says that the government has to act or face what it calls a perma backlog of asylum claims. and this is the problem, it? it's all problem, isn't it? it's all these phrases like they've got

to act well, we are being trapped a situation. i trapped into a situation. i think , where the only action think, where the only action that is some kind that could happen is some kind of amnesty or we allow people to work in the uk and therefore pay some taxes , which many would some taxes, which many would regard as complete and utter regard as a complete and utter perpetual i'm joined perpetual action. i'm joined now by correspondent by political correspondent olivia thank you olivia utley. olivia, thank you very, much. they say , well, very, very much. they say, well, unless the government acts now , unless the government acts now, but then the government tries to act say, you can't act and they say, oh, you can't do so it's the only action do that. so it's the only action that some want actually that some people want actually just open borders. i don't get it. well, it quite hard to it. well, it is quite hard to accuse sunak of trying accuse rishi sunak of not trying with problem. with this problem. >> i mean, earlier this year, he agreed deal the albanian agreed a deal with the albanian prime send albanian prime minister to send albanian migrants time, migrants back. at the time, albanian constituted albanian migrants constituted 90% people crossing the 90% of the people crossing the channel that figure has now been lowered 80. and now we're not lowered by 80. and now we're not seeing that many albanians cross the it's mostly the channel at all. it's mostly afghans and turks. so rishi sunakis afghans and turks. so rishi sunak is trying. he's been really trying to push this rwanda legislation through. but the issue is, of course, that there is a permanent queue of people want to come to

people who want to come to britain. and as the ipp has pointed out, we must acknowledge this is quite a left wing think tank and don't particularly want to be helpful the government. to be helpful to the government. but they out right but what they point out is right is that are 130,000 people is that there are 130,000 people already waiting for their asylum claim to be processed in the uk as we speak. there are 500 600. yesterday arriving pretty much every day. and even if the rwanda plan goes as well as the government is hoping it's going to go, and that's a huge if, of course it still isn't yet through the courts , then we through the courts, then we could only expect around 500 migrants to be migrants per month to be deported rwanda. so that deported to rwanda. so that means you've got a situation where just far more people are coming in and we aren't able to deport them at a fast enough rate . so the ipp says, well, rate. so the ipp says, well, what we're going to up with what we're going to end up with is sort of perma backlog, this is a sort of perma backlog, this bottleneck. and you say, bottleneck. and as you say, according international according to international law, uk law, these people can't simply deported to their own simply be deported to their own country. now that will leave some people holding up their hands saying, well, we've hands and saying, well, we've done we can. there's

done what we can. there's nothing be we're just nothing to be done. we're just going have to accept going to have to accept open borders other borders and it'll have other people saying, i people saying, including, i expect, few conservative expect, quite a few conservative mps conservative mps and conservative backbenchers, need to backbenchers, well, we need to make we need change the law make we need to change the law so that is possible to deport so that it is possible to deport those we to make those people. we need to make our system work properly our asylum system work properly and might involve leaving and that might involve leaving the european court of human rights . rights. >> so yeah, i think that is a question that is growing ever louder. quite now, if louder. quite clearly. now, if there are two ways to read this report , aren't there? there is report, aren't there? there is one which says that our one way which says that our current is completely current system is completely broken and the only solution that we have is to have some kind of amnesty, have open borders, let everybody in and be done with it, and then we'll just think about where we house all these people and look after them. at some point in the future. there is, as you rightly identified the complete future. there is, as you rightly identiopposite the complete future. there is, as you rightly identiopposite waya complete future. there is, as you rightly identi opposite way ofomplete future. there is, as you rightly identiopposite way of looking polar opposite way of looking at it, we need to it, which is that we need to leave the echr and get planes on the runway every single day, deporting the deporting people off. but at the moment, it does feel genuinely as though as this report articulates why the

articulates exactly why the government's are tied government's hands are tied behind their back. we've got a backlog of at least 130,000. that's every single day . that's rising every single day. and the way we could reduce and the only way we could reduce that backlog and stop it costing the british taxpayer upwards of £6 billion a year would be for rwanda to work would to be rwanda to work and would to be deport people. if we can't do that, what happens is we just end up with more and more and more people in a limbo. isn't it? >> well, absolutely. and i think what will be really interesting when parliament comes back next week this echr debate week is where this echr debate moves to, because we know that suella braverman , the home suella braverman, the home secretary personally is perfectly open about the fact that would like see that she would like to see britain leave echr and there britain leave the echr and there are and more cabinet are more and more cabinet ministers quietly poking ministers sort of quietly poking their heads above parapet their heads above the parapet and something similar. so and saying something similar. so will she at the moment, and saying something similar. so will she at the moment , the will she at the moment, the government's position government's official position is britain is staying in the is no. britain is staying in the echr, but if when december comes around and the decision is made, the decision is on the final decision is made on rwanda doesn't go the rwanda and it doesn't go the government's we be government's way, will we be begin to see that line? well, this is the thing, isn't it? and

will be some clear blue water will it be some clear blue water between the conservatives and labour? >> well, there you go. i mean, it could well and it could well be that and i would argue as well, when you look the figures that, look at the figures like that, you going to have you know, you're going to have to yourself the question to ask yourself the question even the people don't want even the people who don't want to the echr, there are to leave the echr, there are some good for not some very good reasons for not wanting leave the echr, but wanting to leave the echr, but would doing it in part to would we be doing it in part to not anger our our friends in the international community at the expense it ruining expense of, frankly, it ruining britain and would britain forever? and i would argue priority should britain forever? and i would arg|should priority should britain forever? and i would arg|should be priority should britain forever? and i would arg|should be britain. should britain forever? and i would arg|should be britain. but uld be, should be britain. but olivia, thank you very, very much. their political much. obe their political correspondent. much. obe their political corresporcontinue this now going to continue with this now and henry bolton, who's and talk to henry bolton, who's and talk to henry bolton, who's a control expert who a border control expert who joins fairy evening. joins us. this fairy evening. thank you very much, henry. great have on the show. great to have you on the show. yeah, i mean, the reality now, i think clearly articulated think pretty clearly articulated in this report, although i don't think it was the reports desired effect, is that unless we leave the echr or start deporting people this time in the next couple of years, we're going to be paying £6 billion a year for a permanent backlog of asylum seekers. aren't we?

>> we are. patrick and you know, i you said earlier sorry, i think my network's a little bit poor today, but you said earlier that there are good reasons to stay in the echr. there are. >> however, it's there's got to be a balance and it's got to be britain's interests have got to go first. >> it's about furthering the interests of the united kingdom of britain and northern interests of the united kingdom of andtain and northern interests of the united kingdom of and the and northern interests of the united kingdom of and the people rthern interests of the united kingdom of and the people here. ireland and the people here. >> and you're absolutely right. and we have to resource the situation correctly , which it's situation correctly, which it's not. we have to ensure that the legal framework is conducive to us carrying out government policy. we elect politicians to implement policy. policy. we elect politicians to implement policy . and if they implement policy. and if they can't, because the law is wrong or because the european convention for human rights prevents them. and that's what we want our politicians to do, then the law has to be changed. and that may mean leaving the echr got no problem with echr i've got no problem with that. it's being abused. >> and at the moment there is something in this country under common always been common law that has always been a and that apply

a principle and that is apply the the law. the spirit of the law. >> we now know that there >> and we now know that there are a raft of ngos, charities , are a raft of ngos, charities, activists, campaigners and lawyers who are not. and politicians who refuse to pursue the spirit of the law . the spirit of the law. >> exactly. and this is this is the key point again, on this for me, henry, which is it's all very well and good people saying, look at this amount of taxpayers money that is being wasted the asylum seeker wasted on the asylum seeker backlog. the people backlog. but a lot of the people that saying that they're that are saying that they're solution open borders. lot solution is open borders. a lot of them campaign for it. lot of them campaign for it. a lot of them campaign for it. a lot of are actively in my book, of them are actively in my book, actively facilitating the trade of human beings across continents to britain, then helping them get legal access to stay here. they're all in on it because it is part of a wider ideological agenda . and the only ideological agenda. and the only way to indeed the only way to fight that is to deport people. >> indeed, i totally agree with you, patrick. well, we've got to deport people. we've got to ensure that we reduce the number of people who we allow in, and we've got to reduce the flow.

there's those three elements and reducing the flow is about deaung reducing the flow is about dealing with the push factors, the and the the pull factors and the movement in between, including transnational crime. transnational organised crime. but element to but there's another element to this, and you know, this, patrick, and you know, recently we've seen the mayor of london, sadiq khan, come out with a of well, his, his with a sort of well, his, his staff apparently unauthorised, which i don't believe for a moment came out with a publication that suggests that white people no longer represent london. now i'm sorry, but that's what you know, the entire this and i'm going to repeat suella braverman's phrase, this invasion and not a military invasion, but an invasion of numbers. we are being overwhelmed and that is one of the results. it's being normalised that parts of britain are no longer white british. we are no longer white british. we are still the majority in this country. so there is that side of it as well. and recently patrick was in clonakilty, which is where one of the hotels , the is where one of the hotels, the studley park hotel , that's sort studley park hotel, that's sort of earmarked to have asylum seekers put in there , there's a seekers put in there, there's a

massive impact on the local community. like what? likewise we've got wigan, the best hotel in wigan, the spa hotel in wigan is being taken over these. aren't you know, basic accommodation centres for accommodation. these are some of the best hotels available in these areas. it is utter madness and i am now starting to believe that this is going beyond incompetence. i know. and patrick, you know, my background , you know that i've helped 14 other countries to deal with national and international problems not far short of this. these problems can be solved with courage , with knowledge and with courage, with knowledge and with courage, with knowledge and with experience. and the correct planning. but you've got to have the courage and determination to do but why isn't that being do it. but why isn't that being done here now? i take it to a point . lack of knowledge, lack point. lack of knowledge, lack of determination and all the rest of it. but there comes a point when you've got to say , point when you've got to say, no, enough is enough. and every day that goes past now i'm more and more of the opinion that more drastic measures are required on our maritime borders. and i always remind

people, people . people, it's not just people. it's cocaine and all the it's all the cocaine and all the heroin that's coming across the borders and the cost in terms of pubuc borders and the cost in terms of public health. come across public health. they come across our well. and our our borders as well. and our borders are porous. >> it. look, look, >> this is it. look, look, henry, you've put a lot of things together there, and i appreciate you doing it, actually, because i think you've expertly summarised a lot of expertly summarised how a lot of our listeners will our viewers and listeners will be feeling. bolton be feeling. henry bolton is border you be feeling. henry bolton is bordevery you be feeling. henry bolton is bordevery much. you be feeling. henry bolton is bordevery much. he you be feeling. henry bolton is bordevery much. he makes you be feeling. henry bolton is bordevery much. he makes ayou very, very much. he makes a series of good points, doesn't he? least the fact that it he? not least the fact that it appears that anybody who wants to about migrant to do anything about the migrant crisis a whole crisis is up against a whole load charities and human crisis is up against a whole load groups ies and human crisis is up against a whole load groups who nd human crisis is up against a whole load groups who want|man crisis is up against a whole load groups who want toan rights groups who want to exacerbate it, a of people exacerbate it, a load of people who ideologically want to bring down therefore down a government and therefore don't it. a load don't want to enact it. a load of people who may be ideologically want to rapid ideologically want to see rapid and demographic and widespread demographic change you put change in england. and you put all that together and does it start to look a bit deliberate coming up in light of the lucy letby case, i'm looking at britain's shameful record of failure maternity failure in maternity departments. this is part of the reason why she was able to get away with it so long. this is

not the biggest story because what has done what lucy letby has done is obviously absolutely heinous and horrendous and britain's worst ever and all ever child serial killer and all of that. but actually, this is a wider story. i would argue what is actually going on and has been going on in our maternity departments in britain, patrick christys britain's

news. the people's channel. britain's news . news. the people's channel. britain's news. channel >> look before 6 pm, i'll have more on the former policeman

who's been jailed for rape while serving in the met police. and the lioness is no show which has left england fans upset. why did the players snub supporters by using private exit at heathrow using a private exit at heathrow airport? that's a one world cup final and they think they're big time, do they? anyway, right now, though, serious news to kill letby as the kill a nurse. lucy letby as the shock from case continues, shock from the case continues, why don't i take you through now what i think is a wider story, something that we can be distracted from by the apps on undoubtedly shocking nature of what lucy letby has done, where she's going to be in prison, etcetera . but actually, really etcetera. but actually, really the reason why she was able to get away with it for so long and one of her so—called defences in court and that is the wider baby death scandals taking place in britain. they've taken place in very recent uk history , no doubt very recent uk history, no doubt are continuing to take place right now. i'm going to start with the shrewsbury and telford nhs trust, so it was the ockenden report that blamed the shrewsbury and telford nhs trust

for the deaths of more than 200 babies. it revealed that a trust that failed to learn from mistakes again bear that in mind. as we are told now, we're going to learn from mistakes. in the letby case, they failed to properly monitor babies during labour and some cases failed labour and in some cases failed to caesarean sections to perform caesarean sections that lives . that could have saved lives. another one, big one, is another one, a big one, is furness general in cumbria. avoidable deaths occurred at a hospital, while regulators took too long to act on concerns about midwives, a report has said 11 babies and one mother died at furness general in barrow in cumbria between 2004 and 2013. a professional standards authority review said the nursing and midwifery council failed to react quickly enough to concerns from police and families. there we go again, you see, failing to act on legitimate concerns . an increase legitimate concerns. an increase was recorded in neonatal mortality rates at the university hospitals of north midlands in stoke last year. that mortality rate rose significantly, meaning that nearly half of the admitted

babies within an age range of between 22 and 26 weeks died nearly half and at east kent, the kirkup report revealed that 45 baby deaths could have been prevented . prevented? sorry, in prevented. prevented? sorry, in east kent with with proper care . so we've seen scandal after scandal after scandal after scandal. all of which are in maternity areas . one of the maternity areas. one of the reasons why the police initially started looking into lucy letby was because of a spike in baby deaths in that area. generally lucy letby was able to sit there and say that actually this was medical negligence that led to the deaths of the babies, not her murdering them and pinpoint and make it make it astonishingly difficult to be able to prove, frankly, due to a poor standard of care and a bad track record of care generally around the nation made it very difficult that it was difficult to prove that it was her was doing the killing . her who was doing the killing. and think this is a much and i think this is a much bigger here. i wanted bigger issue here. so i wanted to highlight that for you

because we are going to be told lessons will be learned from all of lessons be of this. lessons will be learned. this will learned. nothing like this will ever well, ever happen again. well, i don't believe for single believe that for a single second, account of the fact second, on account of the fact that have been that lessons have not been learned ever. and things continue what continue to happen. and what else happens? a culture of cover up denial and a culture of up and denial and a culture of cover and denial. people cover up and denial. people looking for themselves. looking out for themselves. and whenever does break as whenever a scandal does break as well. will fascinating well. and it will be fascinating to happens at the to hear what happens at the countess chester hospital, countess of chester hospital, because if lucy letby was lifted originally in 2016, several people at that hospital in prominent positions will have now had more than long enough to get their ducks in a row and retire on a great pension. move country or do whatever and not actually be held to account for the deaths that took place arguably on their watch during their time there. but lucy letby is currently serving a full life tariff, of course, and we can go now to some interesting details about whether or not other killers like her are going to be made to face real justice. okay.

and by that, i mean being dragged to the dock kicking and screaming to hear the victim impact statements and also their sentencing. we obviously have a campaign going on on this a campaign going on on this now, a petition at this petition going on at this gbnews.com gb news.com forward slash justice. news justice. but here's gb news political christopher justice. but here's gb news politicwho's christopher justice. but here's gb news politicwho's westminsterfor hope, who's in westminster for us.thank hope, who's in westminster for us. thank you very much. chopper yes. okay. a light at the end yes. okay. so a light at the end of the tunnel potentially here, maybe we see action so that maybe we see some action so that monsters like will to monsters like letby will have to face real justice. >> yeah, it's about time this issue has been around, hasn't it 7 issue has been around, hasn't it ? for 18 months or so. the government has promised action. labour correctly been saying why not take some more action? why not take some more action? why not deal with this more quickly ? well, finally it looks like alex chalk the justice secretary, going bring in secretary, is going to bring in new powers in explicitly in law, allowing judges to have powers to require convicted criminals to require convicted criminals to face justice, to face the sentence . they're getting to sentence. they're getting to face their victims , to hear face their victims, to hear their victims impact statements , none of which lucy letby did yesterday when she was sentenced. and that's why it's

so important that happens. this measure will be attached to a new crime and justice bill in the king's speech on november 7th. and that should law 7th. and that should be law maybe by next year. they had looked attaching looked at attaching it to another that work another bill that couldn't work out. and the government, of course, has competing priorities. think any priorities. but i think any victims these crimes will victims of these crimes will welcome this. it's about time . welcome this. it's about time. it can't happen again. the problem that problem is that serious criminals really totally criminals are really totally care much about the kind of sanction they're holding in contempt you are contempt of court. if you are a lesser criminal, two years in prison difference . if prison makes no difference. if you're if you've got several life sentences. and that's the problem they've got here. but it could mean you have that criminals taken up to two to the box manacles , in handcuffs or box in manacles, in handcuffs or even an expert could be brought in by the government, by the judge to say, can you actually give can you actually attend or are you not fit to attend? finally, the government is taking here and it taking some action here and it should be welcomed by the victims. >> exactly . look, thank you >> exactly. look, thank you very, very much, chopper. but as everyone will know, we've got a petition this the minute.

2010. they'd gone on a blind date. he had lied to her, said that he was 22 when in fact, he was in his early 30 as well. she after his conviction today , has after his conviction today, has waived her anonymity. she has come out and she has spoken of the trauma that she suffered and also of the anger that she feels towards this man that abused his position . position. >> an angry at what he'd done to me. i'm angry about who he was. you know, he was a police officer and we go to them to be protected . and i wasn't protected. and i wasn't protected. and i wasn't protected . and i can only blame protected. and i can only blame him for that. you know, he'd done this to me, no one else. and i'm angry for the lack of remorse that he's shown throughout this whole process . throughout this whole process. i've been to court three times. you know , he still fully denies you know, he still fully denies what he's done. and i just feel like even after being in prison for a certain amount of years, he's not had time to reflect and

he's not had time to reflect and he's not had time to reflect and he's not changed. and, you know, he's not changed. and, you know, he's still who he is. and that was more the reason why i did the last retrial was because i wanted to make sure that he didn't get out and, you know, harm anyone else . harm anyone else. >> well, in terms of missed opportunities, the serving officer had made a complaint to the metropolitan police back in 2005, alleging harassment. another female officer made a complaint that she was the victim of unwanted and nuisance text messages. it doesn't appear that either of these cases were in terms of being pursued, were pursued to any significant degree because the judge in this case said he was troubled by the fact that colleagues seemed to be more concerned with covering up for a fellow officer here than taking these complaints seriously. lauren taylor says that she will obviously try her

best to get over the ordeals she suffered, but it will be a long and difficult process . and difficult process. >> yes, i had that justice and it went . and now i've got it it went. and now i've got it back and i'm obviously so thankful for that . but i'm also thankful for that. but i'm also really angry for having to redo that again. so now, yeah , i feel that again. so now, yeah, i feel like it's been hard, but yeah , i like it's been hard, but yeah, i feel like one day i'll get there at a point where i'm like, finally it's over. but at this time it doesn't feel like i can let go just yet, just in case. >> so adam provan is back behind bars again , starting a 16 year bars again, starting a 16 year jail term and on top of that, an eight year licence period was extended that he will have to abide by if he offends again when he's out. he will be back in prison . in prison. >> mark white, thank you very much. our homeland security editor with the very latest on a deeply disturbing case that's now coming up.
