google reveals numerous cases of convicted rapists trying to cross the channel or people who've been accused of sexual offences since arriving. now it appears that human traffickers are essentially telling channel migrants that if they come to britain, they'll be a ready supply of young intoxicate women for them to just have their way with. we've got a snapshot of one of these promotional clips for you now. we'll be playing a lot more of this throughout the course of the but these course of the show. but these videos have been used by several accounts on instagram with hundreds thousands of hundreds of thousands of followers. the latest channel migrant figures from yesterday appear to indicate well that appear to indicate as well that around 87% of those who crossed between january and june this year are men . some of the images year are men. some of the images we were showing you there of course, were also from across europe generally. but it should be blindingly obvious that allowing tens of thousands of sexually repressed men from countries where women are treated as property or second class citizens and the age of

consent is somewhat of a grey area , will put british women and area, will put british women and girls at risk. but apparently that needs spelling out to people . human trafficking gangs people. human trafficking gangs are using young intoxicate aged british women as bait. i can remember a fair few years ago when the odd ruddy faced red wine infused portly politician would come out and say stuff like, well, if women want to be safer on the streets, they maybe they shouldn't go out looking like that. but that was wrong, wasn't it? asking women to change the way they behave to keep themselves safe from men. of course that's wrong. now, i don't want to see women in this country have to change their behaviour to protect themselves from predatory men who think that they can come here and treat women game . but i treat women as fair game. but i have a feeling that certain political so fanat political groups are so fanat vehicle in their support for open borders and unfettered illegal immigration in the channel that it's probably only a of time before do a matter of time before they do actually tell women to dress

more modestly , drink less on more modestly, drink less on nights out. now before the usual suspects pipe up. yes, i am aware that we already have a huge amount of rapists and sexual predators in britain. in fact, it turns out that we've had a fair few in our own police force. and no, i am not suggesting that every single man coming across the channel a coming across the channel is a violent sexual offender. but what i am saying is that clearly see idea la that you see clearly the idea la that you can come to britain to have sex with young women is being used as a selling point . now, if the as a selling point. now, if the cost to the taxpayer isn't enough to stop this madness, if national security isn't enough, if nothing else is enough, surely the safety of young women should . be gb views our should. be gb views our gbnews.com get them coming in. i want to know whether or not you think that the channel migrant crisis is posing a significant threat to women and girls on the streets of britain, but gb news, as i've been talking can

as i've been talking about, can exclusively reveal that young british apparently british women, often apparently drunk and sometimes states of drunk and sometimes in states of undress, being featured in undress, are being featured in adverts those people adverts by those people smuggling gangs. we've been handed evidence of this from a cyber contact has discovered cyber contact who has discovered multiple accounts that he believes are fronts for criminal people smuggling gangs, sources claim the videos are being used to entice young men to use the services of gangs in travelling to europe and the uk. i'm going to europe and the uk. i'm going to go live very shortly to our home security editor, mark white. but here's what he brought to us earlier. >> this is without doubt an extreme worrying development . extreme worrying development. multiple social media accounts discovered on instagram, which cyber experts are convinced are fronts for people smugglers touting for business. what's most alarming are the many videos on these accounts of young british women. often appearing drunk and sometimes scantily clad. apparently unwilling victims of the

criminal gangs. there were told to entice young male migrants to use the smugglers services and travel to the uk , along with the travel to the uk, along with the many videos of young women, are others showing migrants agents using people smuggling routes by land and by sea . gb news was land and by sea. gb news was handed the evidence by a cyber con contact who works on machine learning algorithms. another source said they believed this to be an advertising campaign aimed predominantly at young nonh aimed predominantly at young north african men . the social north african men. the social media ads are similar to those used regularly by smuggling gangs last year to entice mainly young male albanians to travel to the uk, advertise using the apparent high life young migrants could enjoy. they featured sports, cars and wads of cash. those ads helped encourage more than 12,000 albanians to make the illegal channel crossing last year.

earlier this month, home secretary suella braverman condemned what she called heartless people smugglers , heartless people smugglers, exploiting social media posts to promote their criminal enterprise . she announced that enterprise. she announced that all the main social media companies had agreed to work with uk law enforcement to help crack down on the problem . mark crack down on the problem. mark white gb news. >> well, it turns your stomach , >> well, it turns your stomach, doesn't it? and i think a lot of people have been saying this for a very long time that inevitably what's going on in the channel will a massive threat to will pose a massive threat to women in britain. women and girls in britain. evelyn's on. without evelyn's been on. yes without a doubt. of course , the doubt. this does, of course, the decent people of the uk are fed up. i've said this many times, says keeps coming says amanda. it keeps on coming in gb views gb news in the inbox. gb views gb news dot but white joins us dot com. but mark white joins us now. the man who brought us now. he's the man who brought us this exclusive. and mark, it does though young does look as though young british women and girls are being used as bait for north african migrants to come across the channel. >> that certainly seems to be what's happening. we passed our

evidence instagram and evidence on to instagram and they have said this afternoon that they are going to investigate these individual accounts. so let's wait to see what they say they are. instagram which of course is owned by meta, which also owns facebook x and other social media accounts have agreed to cooperate with uk law enforcement agencies and national crime agency to try to crack down on the exploitation of their platforms to send these posts, these blatant advertisements in, it's difficult trying to stay one step ahead of the people smugglers, though, because what they're doing now in response to they're doing now in response to the kind of sophisticated algorithm items that are out there to try and pinpoint these is posts that are effectively adverts moments is that they're not using so much text on anymore and they're using emojis

to try to advertise their wares. so that's one way they're trying to get around the algorithms. >> but these girls that you're seeing now and they are really girls, i mean, by the looks of them, they're not that old, are they you out and about they? you know, out and about doing they're doing on they? you know, out and about d

that these ads are being particularly followed by north african young men. >> and that is a massive problem. i want to emphasise again and be absolutely crystal clear on this that we already have a big problem with sexual violence against women in this country from british people. we've had it with various different figures in different authority figures in the past well, haven't we? so the past as well, haven't we? so this no means a foreign this is by no means a foreign problem that's coming to britain. we do have it britain. we do already have it here. on that here. however, on that particular note, talking about it advertised in north it being advertised in north africa, there are massive cultural differences between our norms and norms in north africa when it comes to respect for women, way that women are treated, consumption as treated, alcohol consumption as well. and just the way that i suppose the age of consent is viewed sometimes as well. and this is going to be this is only going to be a growing problem if you are telling people in that part of the world that you can come to britain there a ready britain and there is a ready supply young drunk girls here supply of young drunk girls here waiting then everything waiting for you, then everything else that they're being shown is true. is the thing, true. this is the thing, you know, they're shown

know, they're being shown pictures of hotels. they're being of getting being shown pictures of getting mobile being mobile phones. they're being shown whatever else. mobile phones. they're being shownthat whatever else. mobile phones. they're being shownthat turns whatever else. mobile phones. they're being shownthat turns out to ever else. mobile phones. they're being shownthat turns out to ber else. all of that turns out to be true. so wouldn't they think true. so why wouldn't they think that that was true as well? yeah i mean, i think what's is i mean, i think what's clear is that criminal gangs who are that the criminal gangs who are very the very sophisticated in the way they days know they operate these days know their audience . their target audience. >> the kind of >> they know the kind of messaging that will work for them. and there's doubt the them. and there's no doubt the adverts that shown by adverts that were shown by albanian criminal gangs last year had a very significant effect with 12,000 plus young men making that voyage across the channel to the uk with these ads showing their fast cars, showing them celebrating near the london eye with the albanian flags and showing, as you can see, these wads of cash to enjoy the high life here in the uk. >> and just quickly, mark, on this, we have had numerous reports of people who've been convicted for sexual offences trying to make it across the channel. and of course , reports channel. and of course, reports of alleged incidents of certain alleged incidents that have taken place here in

the last few months, for example. so, i mean, it is a real problem, isn't it? >> yeah. inevit ably, if you have a group of men there have a large group of men there just by virtue of the fact that, you know, the law of averages , you know, the law of averages, there are going to be some some criminal offenders amongst them. the difficulty law enforcement have is actually trying to determine who might have a criminal history and who might be a threat because the people smugglers tell these people to be deliberately elusive, to throw away, identify documents like passports , mobile phones. like passports, mobile phones. we filmed that ourselves out in the channel where they've been tossing mobile phones off the side of these small boats. that makes it much more difficult for uk law enforcement to get a handle on who exactly these people are and the potential threat that they pose . threat that they pose. >> mark, thank you very much for bringing us that exclusive report. mark white there are home insecurity editor. like i said the top there, you know, said at the top there, you know, i want to us end up having i don't want to us end up having to be to told change our ways,

our way of life. i don't want young women to act young women to have to act differently nights out or in differently or nights out or in the way that they dress or anything of that kind anything for fear of that kind of behaviour happening. vaiews@gbnews.com. get those views coming in. i will go into the inbox very, very shortly, but that story on our but more on that story on our website. go to website. you can also go to gbnews.com. it's the fastest growing national news site in the . best analysis, the country. best analysis, big opinion latest opinion and all the latest breaking now . okay. all breaking news now. okay. all right. now now the most right. is this now now the most famous mug shot in history ? famous mug shot in history? there it is. yes okay. former president donald trump has become the first president in us history to have his mug shot taken as he faces charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election. i've got to be honest . i've got a feeling that that shot could end making him shot could end up making him millions in merch, but also be winning him the next presidential election. patrick christys news britain's news

thursdays from six till 930 . thursdays from six till 930. >> welcome back. i've got a story about trump coming our way very soon. but anyway, i'm going to also talking about payouts for mps. yes payments for mps who lose their seats or stepped down at the next general election will be doubled. are they being rewarded for failure? are they rewarded are they being rewarded for giving up? i also do feel just generally very underrepresented in final couple of months of in the final couple of months of bofis in the final couple of months of boris johnson's didn't boris johnson's reign. didn't feel that was being feel like that much was being done had the saga with done then. we had the saga with liz truss. not lot happened liz truss. not a lot happened there. then we had rishi sunak taking over. then they've all

gone on holiday. meanwhile, taking over. then they've all gone are 1oliday. meanwhile, taking over. then they've all gone are massive vieanwhile, taking over. then they've all gone are massive vieaantaking there are massive issues taking place in this country and i just wonder why are paying them at wonder why are we paying them at all the minute really nothing all at the minute really nothing seems happening. i think seems to be happening. i think they should get themselves back to as i was to work. but yes, as i was saying, is set to become the saying, it is set to become the most mugshot in history. most famous mugshot in history. donald , there has donald trump, there he is, has become president in us become the first president in us history have mugshot taken history to have a mugshot taken as he surrendered georgia as he surrendered in a georgia prison on charges of plotting to overturn the state's 2020 election results. it's always defiant. trump described the arrest as a travesty of justice. he then posted that clip on twitter, which is his first post since the old insurrection took place. if you can call it that. really is this actually going to do him good for the next presidential election? joining me now is the former chief of staff to joe biden is susan. susan, thank you very much . it's susan, thank you very much. it's an absolute pleasure to have you on the show. i must say, it doesn't normally get this high brow, three till six here on gb news. but firstly, do think news. but firstly, do you think that mugshot is going to that that mugshot is going to play that that mugshot is going to play well for trump?

>> thanks for having you >> thanks for having me. you know, we also have to know, i think we also have to remember that not has he remember that not only has he been indicted more times than he's impeached , but he's he's been impeached, but he's been impeached more times than he's inaugurated. he's been inaugurated. >> and he's been inaugurated more he won the more times than he won the popular in the us. so popular vote in the us. so i think this is something that's going the republicans really have to deal with this. they have to deal with this. they have to deal with this. they have to make a decision. republican party. and i think the other you know, 13 the other night, you know, 13 million watched the million people watched the debate other night. excuse debate the other night. excuse my ringing. well my phone for ringing. well that's all right. >> just going to say, >> i was just going to say, susan, you know, that might be trump phone now. mean, trump on the phone now. i mean, it's all right. it's all right because it looks like the dog. but behind you has gone but the dog behind you has gone to anyway, so that's to answer it anyway, so that's all right. >> w- all right. >> us the most >> he gave us the most intimidating look. he possibly could. now he's could. right. and now he's saying no surrender, never surrender. well he did surrender. well he did surrender. they cannot be a good feeling to be arrested and be facing with 91 felony counts in four different trials . and if four different trials. and if you listen to i'm not a lawyer,

but if you listen to all the lawyers, they say it is highly unlikely, given the volume of counts that they will all be dismissed. so i guess the question then comes, when will the trials happen? because he'll delay, delay, delay and will there be a plea? and i think that's what we need to think about. >> yeah, i mean, the thing is, though, underpinning all this though, underpinning all of this is popular election in a is a popular election in a pubuc is a popular election in a public vote. right and he's smashing it in the republican opinion polls at the minute. >> that's right. >> that's right. >> and so there is a chance and there is. and let's be honest, joe biden is not the most popular president that you've ever had. i think many people do question whether or not he might be fit for a second term. and i think that's fair enough for, you know, the obvious. i think he's got a lot done. >> so you can't question that. >> so you can't question that. >> you know, i just don't know if it's really him doing it necessary, though he does seem a bit . bit doddery. >> i don't think that's the case. but but, you know , look, case. but but, you know, look, if you watch the debate the

other night, which i did, it's really kind of serious to think about. there were there were eight people on the stage, but why are they challenging donald trump when six of the eight say they'd vote for him if he was convicted? and i think they really have to take a look at it. but no matter what you will say, say about yes, joe biden is going to be 82 years old, but you cannot argue with his accomplishments. you just cannot argue with that. well the last time that he won, of course, he beat donald trump by quite a few votes. and donald trump has neven votes. and donald trump has never, never won the popular vote. so i do think that this putting out about never surrender , which you did, surrender, which you did, surrender, which you did, surrender this mugshot , will surrender this mugshot, will ultimately come back and bite him in the butt. >> do you think that this is a very, very high stakes game, though? let's just say he gets off with everything and he comes back and he seems to have smashed the system and that it was all a bit rigged against him. i can kind of see him. i mean, i can kind of see susan where he's coming from

because was hounded from day because he was hounded from day one. he didn't help himself at times. but he was hounded times. yeah, but he was hounded from day one. there was all this talk of the russia hoax and all of know, and then you of that, you know, and then you do at the biden family. do look at at the biden family. and i think hunter's got off a bit lightly, hasn't he ? and joe bit lightly, hasn't he? and joe biden, what are some of the previous connections there potential financially with things like ukraine? i just wonder whether or not there's a lot of stuff playing in trump's favour here. >> i don't think there's anything playing in trump's favour . this anything playing in trump's favour. this man has skirted the laws as you might if you read all the newspapers for all the years, skirted the laws for so many years and blatant had a blatant disregard for all of them . now the roosters are them. now the roosters are coming home and i think the odds of beating 931 felony counts is slim to none . that's why i say slim to none. that's why i say the question is will he end up playing? and at some point i do believe when the republicans

have to do their own kind of soul searching and say , do they soul searching and say, do they really want to vote and nominate a guy who's been convicted of crimes and big crimes in this country , serious crimes, not country, serious crimes, not not, not minor crimes at all. very the most serious you can have in a democracy. okay >> i mean, they might not have to because vivek might do rather well. our very own nigel farage interviewed vivek ramaswamy last night. i think it was actually. and i watched quite a bit of the debate as well. i did think he performed well . i got to be performed well. i got to be honest with you, i didn't think it was an incredibly impressive field. but he performed rather well . he has field. but he performed rather well. he has said he will pardon trump on day one in the office. do you think we need to be ready for vivek? i think vivek was really a substitute for donald trump. >> donald trump may not have personally been on this stage, but vivek was. and why would someone vote for vivek when they

can vote for the real thing? >> yeah, he's the polar opposite of joe biden , though, isn't he? of joe biden, though, isn't he? i know obviously are a fan i know you obviously are a fan of joe biden and that's great. a lot of people are. and crucially enough, unless you enough, people, unless you listen enough listen to donald trump, enough people election were people at the last election were and got elected. so you and then he got elected. so you know, is that side of know, there is that side of things. but vivek is young, he's energetic. he wants to get things doesn't fall things done. he doesn't fall downstairs over his downstairs and stumble over his words time . and you words all the time. and you wonder pulling his wonder who's pulling his strings, really strings, you know, do you really deep down, you really think deep down, do you really think it's thing american it's the best thing for american democracy to have another four years of joe biden shuffling around ? around? >> think my old boss has done one hell of a great job in this country and for the world. on keeping nato together, on passing so much legislation . the passing so much legislation. the inflation reduction act, getting people working again, getting manufacturing back, lowering costs of medicine and health care for people. he's done a whole lot. and i think, you know, you have to vote with who you've got and who's presented

to you. yeah, you can't just vacuum say, well , maybe i'll do vacuum say, well, maybe i'll do so—and—so. they have to run and they have to be nominated and they have to be nominated and they have to be nominated and they have to be elected. and i think with what we've got, what we're facing, joe biden's pretty darn good. all right, susan, thank very, much . thank you very, very much. >> so platt, though, is >> so susan platt, though, is the staff to joe the former chief of staff to joe biden and there we go. right. what you make of then? what do you make of that then? vaiews@gbnews.com just wonder if people of hawaii feel the if the people of hawaii feel the same way, you know, but there we are. loads more still come are. loads more still to come between and cost of between now and 4:00. cost of living what cost of living crisis. what cost of living crisis. what cost of living payments for mps living crisis. what cost of livin lose payments for mps living crisis. what cost of livin lose their yments for mps living crisis. what cost of livin lose their seatsts for mps living crisis. what cost of livin lose their seats . for mps living crisis. what cost of livin lose their seats . well,.ps living crisis. what cost of livin lose their seats . well, this who lose their seats. well, this is the one for me who quit right . so who just stepped down at the next general election, it's going doubled. christopher going to be doubled. christopher hope, editor, chop hope, our political editor, chop her, is coming up very soon to explain all of that. but right now, it's your headlines with . aaron >> it's just after half past three. i'm aaron armstrong in the gb newsroom . the average the gb newsroom. the average household will see a slight

it'll start sunny over east anglia and southeast england, for example, and through parts of scotland as well. but of central scotland as well. but cloud northern cloud and rain over northern scotland and we'll just see the showers develop again pretty widely by the afternoon. and like today, there'll be heavy thundery in places and for some quite slow moving . so again, the quite slow moving. so again, the potential they could cause a few issues, certainly a lot of spray and surface water on the roads if you're travelling around. but it all there'll it won't rain all day. there'll be some spells and be some sunny spells and temperatures the sunshine temperatures in the sunshine high low 20s so still high teens low 20s so still feeling the cool side. sunday feeling on the cool side. sunday still a few showers but turning dry . and for many of us, as for dry. and for many of us, as for what is for some, a bank holiday doesn't look too bad. on monday i >> -- >> looks like things are heating up. boxed boilers proud sponsors of weather on gb news as. payments for mps who lose their

seats or voluntarily step down at the next general election are to be doubled, handing them £17,300 of taxpayers money each. >> it's provided to help them close down their offices, manage their departure of their staff. at the last general election , at the last general election, departing mps were paid for two months after losing their seats . however, the independent parliament standards authority affectionately known as ipsa, which sets the rules for mps expenses, has said that it is not long enough and that the time period should be increased to four months. a couple of different aspects for me to this story, which is , is that too story, which is, is that too much money generally are they already paid enough? do we need it? an increase in it? do we need an increase in the cost of living crisis? i also want to know what the flipping paying flipping heck we're paying them for have for anyway. seriously we have the days of boris johnson the final days of boris johnson where a huge amount apart where not a huge amount apart from them slating boris johnson appeared get done. then we appeared to get done. then we had for about what a had liz truss for about what a month was just a month? month was it just over a month? and we had rishi sunak and and then we had rishi sunak and then they've gone on holiday and

meanwhile massive meanwhile we've got massive issues this country. issues here facing this country. none which sorted. none of which are being sorted. why are we paying them at all? let's cross live to let's cross live now to westminster speak with gb westminster and speak with gb news political editor christopher christopher, news political editor christ(you r christopher, news political editor christ(you very christopher, news political editor christ(you very much. stopher, news political editor christ(you very much. it'siher, news political editor christ(you very much. it's great thank you very much. it's great to have you. firstly, can you explain the amount of money that mps are going to be getting for quitting or getting booted out ? quitting or getting booted out? >> , it's odd, isn't it? so >> yeah, it's odd, isn't it? so in previous years mps have had to hang around after they've lost their seats or been chucked out of parliament to kind of tie up loose ends. out of parliament to kind of tie up loose ends . and that's taken up loose ends. and that's taken ipso say , longer than the two ipso say, longer than the two month period they were given. so they've been given now four months of pay unwind their months of pay to unwind their offices. i mean , for offices. i mean, for many people, they might people, though, they might think, didn't think, well, why? why didn't they if they they need the money? if they know they're going? and around 70 mp5 know they're going? and around 70 mps have resigned. so far as as from parliament. stand as from parliament. they stand down election . do they down at the election. do they need more months pay to need four more months of pay to unwind their offices? surely that happen in advance. that will happen in advance. so there's concern , i think, in there's concern, i think, in dunng there's concern, i think, in during this cost of living crisis we're in the crisis that we're in at the moment. why happening ?

moment. why is this happening? the up from about £8600 the pay goes up from about £8600 to £17,000. 300, that's in addition, patrick, to the redundancy pay. so if they lose their jobs , like redundancy pay. so if they lose theirjobs , like any of us lose theirjobs, like any of us lose theirjobs, like any of us lose their jobs, you get theirjobs, like any of us lose theirjobs, you get redundancy their jobs, you get redundancy pay, their jobs, you get redundancy pay, they get twice the statutory pay, the same as the civil service. so typically an mp with five years service would get 5 to £6000 for each roughly each parliament they're in. so if it's for parliament's time's up if it's for parliament's time's ”p by if it's for parliament's time's up by four, it's a lot of money. it's our money, it's taxpayers money. and i think, you know, some of are saying today that it's a bit of a kind of a knucklehead thing to do by ipso part of me can understand why somebody who's voted out would get is get it because it is a precarious line of work and you want to entice people into it. >> and so you can give them a little bit of security. if the pubuc little bit of security. if the public decides that they've had enough them, i would politely enough of them, i would politely push back that and say, if push back on that and say, if you maybe did a bit more of what the public have voted you in to do, then you wouldn't that do, then you wouldn't have that problem the next election problem at the next election

because get because you probably would get voted in. voted back in. >> well, mps sit for around a third of the year, just under a third of the year, just under a third of the year, just under a third of the year, and then maybe about 100 sitting days behind me. at the moment, they're not there. they're back on the of september for on the 4th of september for about two period. then about a two week period. then back mid october back again in mid october through to christmas time. these days set set. so they're days are set set. so they're meant their other half meant to have their other half of being. is in of their time being. mps is in their constituencies meeting constituents where we can't really see they're up to really see what they're up to because we're here unless they're on social they're posting things on social media. they are doing their media. so they are doing their work, away work, earning their money away from away from public view. patrick yeah, look, do they get a bit too much holiday though, do you think? >> christopher. do you think? >> christopher . well, what do you think? >> christopher. well, what i think is irrelevant. >> patrick, as you know, but they do get a lot of time off, more than more than most. they get fridays off, of course , i get fridays off, of course, i say off. they're at home with their constituents working on casework with marginal casework mps with more marginal seats work really hard for those seats. those with bigger majorities have put the majorities don't have to put the same effort in. and certainly

mps been for longer mps who've been here for longer know it works and can manage know how it works and can manage the workload. i think they do get, you know, some of get, you know, and some of course second jobs, second course have second jobs, second occupations, show occupations, which do show there's time job. there's not a full time job. they do other they have. they can do other work they're doctors or work if they're doctors or lawyers or they must get their hand in other situations, hand in. in other situations, they their directorships, they have their directorships, that thing. and that kind of thing. and that's where the issue of where i think the issue of second occupations is, is important. what they are is important. but what they are is they hold an office that's the point to understand about an mp. they holders and they they are office holders and they are elected to that office and how they how they deliver that office up judgement every office is up for judgement every five if people aren't five years. if people aren't happy about not seeing their mp and currently nadine dorries is under a bit of fire, isn't she, for not being around in mid—bedfordshire then they can vote her out should say. vote her out i should say. nadine dorries going go nadine dorries is going to go before the election. says before the election. she says she she won't get this she will. so she won't get this money to her office. she money to unwind her office. she won't the money won't get the money we're talking today. talking about today. >> okay, christopher, thank you very, there gb news political hope there gb news political edhon hope there gb news political editor. what do you make of that? an that? it sounds to me like an awful lot of money. again i

really do think it's not rocket science, if you are science, is it? if you are re—elected under a prime minister who was very, very popular and popular with a manifesto and certain manifesto pledges, and then behave in a way once then you behave in a way once you've been elected, which is diametrically opposed to what the public elected you to do, and then you lose your seat as a result of that, i don't think you should be paid for that. that's your fault. i also think that if you that you want that if you decide that you want to oust a minister, then to oust a prime minister, then oust another prime minister, and then go against the will of the people on numerous the people on numerous of the things, some cases the things, even in some cases the will your will directly of your constituents and just constituents and then you just quit before the next election because you don't want to get a kicking at the polls. i don't think you should get paid for that either. they have that either. and they do have rather nice holidays. mps, they've away for absolutely they've been away for absolutely ages now, but the country's issues aren't issues are still here, aren't they? vaiews@gbnews.com. what do that? still do you make of that? but still to come, sunak says that to come, rishi sunak says that all are the table as all options are on the table as ofgem the price cap on ofgem slashes the price cap on energy bills. but what does that really you ? liam really mean for you? liam

halligan will be with us very shortly to pick through the noise. patrick christys gb news. britain's . channel earlier britain's news. channel earlier on gb news radio . on the

. six one. >> well, rishi sunak acas said that all options are on the table as ofgem has slashed the

price cap on energy bills. this yet again ties into another crisis facing this country and people like you and me and everyone we know doesn't see. whilst our politicians appear to be away on holiday. but at least rishi has piped up on it rishi sunak has piped up on it because energy regulator because the energy regulator ofgem announced next ofgem has announced the next price october to price cap for october to december will be £1,923 for the average household, dropping from just over £2,000 in july. prime minister rishi sunak says a typical annual bill could be £150 cheaper this winter . but £150 cheaper this winter. but the resolution foundation has challenged that massively, pointing out that the removal of the government support package and higher standing charges, more than 7 million households could actually be worse off than last winter . last winter. >> actually, today's really good news for families up and down the country with a reduction in the country with a reduction in the energy price cap that's going to reduce on average a typical family's energy bill by about £150, easing the burden on the cost of living. and we took decisive action after putu was

illegal war to help families by imposing a windfall tax on energy companies, using that money to provide about £1,500 of support to a typical household. but i know things are still tough and that's why we are working night and day to bring down inflation so that the money in people's pockets can go further. >> okay, joining us now is our economics and business editor liam halligan with on the money . well well somebody as i was going to say lying there might be a bit strong sunak saying this is good news. but then the resolution foundation saying well it's not. well actually it's not. >> ever sit down with >> do you ever sit down with your laptop, patrick, and look at your electricity and gas bill and actually work out and actually try and work out what's happening? >> deliberately that. >> i deliberately don't do that. >> i deliberately don't do that. >> and i'm meant to >> i do that. and i'm meant to be like the brainy bloke on gb news and i can't work out some of the time. i've got eight letters after for letters after my name for studying economics. it's so complicated and afraid the complicated and i'm afraid the announcement today is really, really complicated as well. but the headline is that the

headune the headline is that the headline isn't necessarily true. the headline is, of course , the headline is, of course, energy price, cap down, hurrah. but that doesn't mean the bills are going down. not for a minute. so let me explain. so let's have a quick look at some of these graphics here. so ofgem, they are the energy regulator. they're due to announce they announced the new energy this morning. energy price cap this morning. it's . from £2,074 down to it's fallen. from £2,074 down to £1,923. that will be from the 1st of october to the end of december. then there'll be a new cap. but we know. so even though there's that reduction, we know that government's away that the government's taken away the £400 a year subsidy. that's been giving to every household for energy bills. that's automatically been taken off your bills. you don't have to do anything. just the anything. that's just the government subsidising the energy . and we also energy companies. and we also know confirmed today, as i said yesterday day, that ofgem, the regulator , is allowing the big regulator, is allowing the big energy companies to up the standing charges. that's the fixed price that you pay for just having an electricity bill

and that is certainly very questionable because multi—millionaire will pay the same standing charge in many cases as a pensioner couple will who are literally eating a warming a tin of beans every day and sitting in front of one bar of the electric fire in order to scrimp and save same standing charge. so why up the standing charges when they obviously hit the poor disproportionately hard? >> yeah, no, indeed. and people will be facing up to it this winter having thought that maybe their bills are going to go down, maybe they were going to get a bit of a reprieve. well, alas, how vulnerable are alas, no. but how vulnerable are we to a to it getting even worse because still seeing because we're still seeing what's on in ukraine, for what's going on in ukraine, for example, we know example, and we don't know what's to happen there, do we? >> exactly. geopolitics, this whole in whole situation is drenched in risk management consultants risk as management consultants say. geopolitics war in ukraine and russia , escalation of and and russia, escalation of and russia getting even harsher , russia getting even harsher, cutting off gas supplies, both east and west, really trying to rig global energy markets,

working together with the opec exporters cartel . all this could exporters cartel. all this could happen. this winter. look, let's pretend there's none of that sort of geopolitical whizz bangs happening, even just on the numbers that we've got. we've got the resolution foundation, as you know , broadly a centre as you know, broadly a centre left think tank. but they're very respectable group of people. they've got, know, people. they've got, you know, good they've got good economists, they've got reputation. they don't make things the resolution things up. and the resolution foundation saying on their foundation are saying on their calculations, they reckon 7.2 million households wait for it. that's about a third of all households in britain, in the in england are to going face higher bills this winter. england are to going face higher bills this winter . even on the bills this winter. even on the pnces bills this winter. even on the prices where we currently are, even though the price cap has come down because of these extra standing charges, overall standing charges, the overall standing charges, the overall standing charges, the overall standing charge is going to rise to about £300 year, up from to about £300 a year, up from 250. so there's £50 off the £150 reduction in your energy price cap. and as you say , to your cap. and as you say, to your point, the oil price rise since late june, the global oil price has already gone up by 20. and the gas price, the wholesale gas

price is up 50% since mid—july. these prices are very , very these prices are very, very volatile. so on the strength of these numbers , a lot of these numbers, a lot of households won't see their bills come down. they'll actually see them go up. and then on top of that, you've got the geopolitical risk. if wholesale energy prices escalate , all energy prices escalate, all these numbers will look worse than currently than they currently do. >> thing rishi sunak >> one thing that rishi sunak said, though, is he was keen to emphasise windfall tax. emphasise this windfall tax. okay, significant has that okay, how significant has that been? there is more been? if there is more drama this winter , will the government this winter, will the government be subsidised anything again? because ultimately we end up paying because ultimately we end up paying that back one way or another. >> i reckon, and i said it earlier today, i think the government can't afford politics fully not to do more on energy bills because even though the price cap has come down, you've even got the head of ofcom, very unusual intervention from basically a civil servant saying , quote, people will struggle this winter. i can't say that they won't. okay that's a really rare intervention from the head of ofcom. he's meant to be a

sort of numbers bloke, you know, a technician, ian, rather than somebody making a very political statement like that. so clearly the risks are high. i and what i'd also say, patrick, is that it may be that this coming winter and the nights are drawing in, the kids will be back at school soon. an august bank holiday weekend is sort of the end of summer, isn't it? or the end of summer, isn't it? or the beginning of the end of summer. winter. the summer. this winter. the long—range weather forecasts are saying it's going to be colder than the last winter, last winter, for all the fear about energy prices, it was actually quite mild . okay. so a lot of quite mild. okay. so a lot of people could conserve their gas . they could heat their homes less because the weather was relatively kind. if it's a cold winter this year, a lot of people are going to find it tougher because it's going to find it harder to save energy. and energy may actually be and the energy may actually be for some households, as we've just demonstrate, ofsted more expensive despite in expensive despite this fall in the energy price cap, i'd like to all going to be to say it's all going to be great, i'd rather gloomy

great, but i'd rather be gloomy than be wrong. >> yeah, enough. liam thank >> yeah, fair enough. liam thank you much. liam you very, very much. liam halligan our economics and business now the emails business editor. now the emails have been flying in. i've just got time for 1 or 2 of them before wrap up this hour. got time for 1 or 2 of them beforeof wrap up this hour. got time for 1 or 2 of them before of youap up this hour. got time for 1 or 2 of them beforeof you were this hour. got time for 1 or 2 of them before of you were gettinng. got time for 1 or 2 of them before of you were getting in loads of you were getting in touch initially on energy bills, yet are correct. the yet you are correct. the standing charges are regressive yet you are correct. the stanitng charges are regressive yet you are correct. the stanit should ges are regressive yet you are correct. the stanit should be are regressive yet you are correct. the stanit should be scrapped.;sive yet you are correct. the stanit should be scrapped. but tax. it should be scrapped. but but vast majority of the but the vast majority of the ones the last hour or so ones in the last half hour or so have been on this. mps pay issue that talking about with that i was talking about with christopher hope, our political edhon christopher hope, our political editor. like they're editor. do you feel like they're being for failure at being rewarded for failure at the moment? look at the moment? when you look at things what i've just been things like what i've just been talking liam about there and talking to liam about there and then them off then you see them off on holiday? everyone deserves then you see them off on h

security editor, mark white is in relation to albania and people smugglers mark. >> yeah, this is members of a gang that were involved in smuggling albanian migrants from france and belgium to the uk . france and belgium to the uk. they have been jailed. three of the four have been jailed today for a combined total of 13 years. now, people might think that between three people, four people smuggling, that 13 years, isn't that much. but that's the thing, actually, is it? >> they'll probably be out in half. >> yeah, well, that's the combined total 13 years. fourth member of the gang has still to be arrested. we can show you some video which is of essex police and their marine unit. and this was on the 2nd of october last year where these police officers caught up with one of the smugglers , mitag on one of the smugglers, mitag on the boat called orca. now, that's a rigid inflatable boat.

this is different to the boats that come across the channel, which are these kind of made to order just which are these kind of made to orderjust plasticky which are these kind of made to order just plasticky , which are these kind of made to orderjust plasticky , inflatable order just plasticky, inflatable things, rigid ribs, rigid, inflatable. they've got this rigid hull. they're much more robust. they have bigger, more powerful engines that can zip across the channel and that shows you that , you know, shows you that, you know, they're not all just coming across on these plastic boats . across on these plastic boats. some are coming across on these very sophisticated, rigid inflatables. clearly they'd be charging a bit more. >> so they zip them off. they actually land on british shores and then they zip back off across the channel again. yes, right. >> and the there was at least four journeys that the national crime agency believe these people smugglers were involved in, that they know of with these rigid inflatable boats . they had rigid inflatable boats. they had one and they were purchasing another one just to try and circumvent some of the other channel routes by kicking off from the shores of belgium as

well with another bit of video that we can show you of this rigid inflatable boat called the orca, which is being towed through a marina. this is brightlingsea marina in essex. it's there that one of the gang paid and used false identity to pay paid and used false identity to pay the owners of that marina to berth this rigid inflatable ball at brightlingsea and indeed the other rigid inflatable . when. so other rigid inflatable. when. so sorry, just. >> just doubly explain that for me then. so they paid whoever owns that marina yeah you can see it in the background being just pushed back down to its kind of mooring spot. >> but of course any marina you can pay the owners of that marina, that harbour to be able to house your boat there to berth your boat there. so that's what they did. and one of the people smuggling gangs used a false identity to be able to do that. false identity to be able to do

that . so the four false identity to be able to do that. so the four members of this criminal gang , we've got this criminal gang, we've got their mug shots for you. three of those members are albanian and the other owner is an irish national who were all brought to justice following this national crime agency investigation in october of last year. the national crime agency tipped off their colleagues in belgium and they were able to stop one of they were able to stop one of the boats when it landed in belgium and was about to pick up 12 albanian migrant its there. so brought to justice today, whether you think it's a lenient sentence or you know or not, it's 13 years for three members of that gang with one more still to be sentenced next tuesday. >> okay. all right. so that's the breaking news then, that a gang of albanian and one irish people smuggler have now been sentenced for a combined total of 13 years, which is nothing

really, is it? in the long run when you think about it for that vile trade in human life , what vile trade in human life, what do you know? we talk about deterrent all the time, don't we? on this show? we talk about deterrent for coming the deterrent for coming across the channel. you be centre of channel. will you be centre of rwanda? no, won't, rwanda? well, no, you won't, will deported? well, no, will you be deported? well, no, you won't. what if the deterrent for the to not be human for the people to not be human traffickers, really, if that's what combined what you're getting a combined total of 13 years right now . the total of 13 years right now. the other big story for us today in relation to what's been going on in the channel is another gb news exclusive, which reveals that young british women often apparently drunk, sometimes in states of undress , are being states of undress, are being featured in adverts by people smuggling gangs. so we've been handed evidence from a cyber contact act who has discovered multiple accounts , some of them multiple accounts, some of them with hundreds of thousands of followers that are fronts for criminal people smuggling gangs . now, sources claim that the videos are being used to entice young men to use the services of gangs to travel to europe and the uk. essentially young

british women being used as bait to entice north african men to take illegal journeys in to britain. mark whitehead previously prepared this package for us. >> this is without doubt an extreme worrying development . extreme worrying development. multiple social media accounts discovered on instagram , which discovered on instagram, which cyber experts are convinced that are fronts for people smugglers touting for business. what's most alarming are the many videos on these accounts of young british women often appearing drunk and sometimes scantily clad. apparently unwilling victims of the criminal gangs. there were told to entice young male migrants to use the smugglers services and travel to the uk , along with the travel to the uk, along with the many videos of young women, are others showing migrants using people smuggling routes by land and by sea. gb news was handed

the evidence by a cyber contact who works on machine learning algorithms . another source said algorithms. another source said they believed this to be an advertising campaign aimed predominantly at young north african men . the social media african men. the social media ads are similar to those used regularly by smuggling gangs last year to entice mainly young male albanians to travel to the uk, advertising the apparent high life young migrants could enjoy. they featured sports , enjoy. they featured sports, cars and wads of cash . those ads cars and wads of cash. those ads helped encourage more than 12,000 albanians to make the illegal channel crossing last year. earlier this month, home secretary suella braverman khan condemned what she called heartless people smugglers, exploiting social media posts to promote their criminal enterprise . as she announced enterprise. as she announced that all the main social media companies had agreed to work with uk law enforcement to help crack down on the problem . i'm

crack down on the problem. i'm mark whyte. gb news is well, with me now is gb news presenter darren grimes. >> darren, thank you. this is pretty sickening stuff that young , often intoxicated british young, often intoxicated british girls are being used as bait to lure in north african men. what this is saying to me anyway is that the human traffickers are telling north african men that if you come to britain, you can just have your way with the women. >> absolutely . patrick, i mean, >> absolutely. patrick, i mean, we've reached a bizarre point in this country, though, where even discussing these issues, where tiktok and other platforms are being used to tout trade, as it were, as if women are can be reduced to being no more than a function for men to get their way away with. but we if we discuss these issues on this channel, which we do, and i think we're one of the only broadcasters with the gumption , broadcasters with the gumption, frankly, to do it despite cussing them around the issues

of sexual violence. can actually land you with accusations of racism and bigotry. we see it time and again, but it shouldn't be taboo, patrick in my opinion to point out the glaringly obvious which is this in some pockets of britain where we're getting migrant communities, clusters of communities starting to gather multiculturalism hasn't delivered the results that we've been promised by politician after politician for generations. it's not about integration, right? it's about a jarring disconnect with british values. and i'm afraid to say that the stark is british value here is around gender relations . our society don't need to explain it to you, patrick. i'm sure you're well aware, but we believe in the equality between men and women . we don't reduce men and women. we don't reduce women to being pieces of meat, right? we that stands in stark contrast to those that condone heinous practises like honour violence, forced marriages and other things. it's not about

economics for me, right? it's about the culture clash that's tearing apart the fabric of british society . that's what british society. that's what really, really concerns me. >> and the thing is, we've we've seen it already. okay? so we've known that convicted rapists have attempted to get across the channel we have had some serious allegations made about some individuals who have done it already. i am well aware before the usual suspects pipe up that we already have enough sexual predators in this country. we've got enough people who go out and commit assaults, etcetera, etcetera, of them etcetera, etcetera. some of them at worked in at times have worked in our police force for goodness sake. however, my main point on this would are in would be that if you are in deporting from countries deporting people from countries where they look at women as second citizens or indeed second class citizens or indeed property they also take a property, and they also take a very dim view of women who would go out and drink alcohol. et cetera, i.e. the western women that are in those videos that you are frankly asking for trouble. and it is a very real and present danger to british

women. and i think it is time that people started standing up for that and saying, we are to going see women having to be told to change their ways on the streets of britain so that they don't make themselves a target. >> it well, we've seen that already in europe, for example, patrick, where women only swim in sessions been released in sessions have been released in sessions have been released in places that did during angela merkel's summer of madness allow a lot millions into germany, into the country. and you now haven't women trying to having to change their behaviours for fear of being sexually assaulted by men and this is the it goes to the crux of the issue border control isn't just a political talking point, right? it's about national security. how can you tell which of the influx of young men fighting age young men coming over here might actually have sinister intentions, whether that is violence against women, whether that is terrorism and evidence suggests you know, look at what happened in

rotherham . i don't know about rotherham. i don't know about you, but if i was a young lass, sat in one of our towns that is getting an influx of migrants in in some places near them , i in some places near them, i wouldn't feel confident that what happened in rotherham wouldn't happen again, where the welfare of young white girls were sideline and their rights totally trampled upon. all in the name patrick of cultural sensitivity . how do we know that sensitivity. how do we know that that wouldn't happen again? where women in this country, british nationals, are dismissed as mere commodities ? that's as mere commodities? that's what's really alarming to me because i can see it happening again . i can see authorities again. i can see authorities turning a blind eye for fear of that label of racism and you mentioned it there. there has been a case in skegness, obviously won't go into any detail, but we only know that the person has actually denied the person has actually denied the claims of violence because of a taxpayer funded arabic interpreter . now viewers can interpreter. now viewers can make their own minds up on the arabic interpret being

necessary, but the problem here, the backdrop is undeniable . the backdrop is undeniable. right? skegness is a migrant hub. you've covered the 10th asians in those communities. ortiz the protests in those communities. but rather than actually address these concerns , locals are dismissed as being swivel eyed bigots. patrick it's under just to swivel eyed bigots. patrick it's underjust to me swivel eyed bigots. patrick it's under just to me this is swivel eyed bigots. patrick it's underjust to me this is mean . under just to me this is mean. you go back to the fundamental point that this is a country, patrick, that defeated the and turned back the u—boats . we turned back the u—boats. we can't turn back a few boats of those who we know absolutely nothing about. it's a reflection on where we're at in britain. >> darren, look, thank you very much. darren grimes there as gb news presenter, just reacting gb news presenter, just reacting gb news which is that news exclusive, which is that human trafficking gangs are using young, often intoxicated british girls as bait to lure people across the channel and if that doesn't wake a few people up to the very real and present threat, then i frankly, i just think nothing will. but is this now the most famous mugshot in history? former president donald trump become the first

trump has become the first president in us history to have his mugshot taken as he faces charges for trying to overturn the 2020 election. i've got a feeling it could be that picture that might actually win in the election . what do you think? but election. what do you think? but what about vivek ramos swami an underdog for the republican nomination ? nigel farage has nomination? nigel farage has been sitting down and chatting to him. more that very to him. more on that very shortly. patrick christys gb news

channel okay , welcome back. channel okay, welcome back. >> you are watching me. patrick christys on gb news. and coming up, the great ulez debate with just days until sadiq khan's expansion across london begins the london mayor has bizarrely begun hitting out at critics and opponents as conspiracy theorists. we'll be talking about all of that. do you feel like a conspiracy theorist or have a concerns about how much it's going cost to drive it's going to cost you to drive around? this is set to around? but this is set to become the most famous mugshot in history. trump has in history. donald trump has become the former the first former us president. i should say, to have a mugshot taken as he surrendered in a georgia prison on charges of plotting to overturn state's 2020 overturn the state's 2020 election results . always election results. always defiant, described the defiant, trump described the arrest as a travesty of justice, and his latest indictment certainly overshadow the first debate between the other republican presidential candidates held this week in milwaukee. debate frontrunner rising star considered by many, anyway. vivek ramaswamy sat down with nigel farage. he was asked

whether he would be happy to be trump's vp. this is about reviving our country and i can only reunite this country if i'm doing it from the white house. >> as the leader and the face of our movement. >> and what i will tell president trump is, i know you're a patriot. i mean, he and ihave you're a patriot. i mean, he and i have a deep relationship with mutual respect. want as my mutual respect. i want him as my most adviser, something most valued adviser, something of mentor in that role. of a mentor in that role. >> actually, i've fresh >> actually, i've got fresh legs. than half his age. >> you're the rookie. >> you're the rookie. >> i'm. >> i'm. >> and i wear it as a badge of honoun >> and i wear it as a badge of honour. but we have to reach young people who have lost their sense national pride in this sense of national pride in this country. >> okay so that is seen by >> yes. okay so that is seen by many people , too. perhaps if many people, too. perhaps if it's not ron desantis, it might be him who's leading the republican party into this presidential election. just a bit on, was saying bit earlier on, i was saying about mug shots. right it about famous mug shots. right it got me thinking. what are some of famous mug shots of the most famous mug shots that we've got? there's this one. oj simpson, i think it's fair to say. this one is, yeah, arguably the most famous one.

there's this one lovely chap as well, hugh grant. i wonder what he did . that was interesting, he did. that was interesting, wasn't it? old hugh end . hey, wasn't it? old hugh end. hey, this one's good . michael this one's good. michael jackson. yes okay, so there's a few famous mug shots knocking about, aren't there? trump's though, i think is quite possibly going to top them all to get stuck into all of this. what this means for trump going forward and just from a pr perspective, generally really is special correspondent at vanity fair and host of fast politics podcast is molly jong—fast. thank you very much. great to have the show. bizarrely, have you on the show. bizarrely, could mugshot work could this mugshot scenario work out well for trump, you out quite well for trump, do you think ? think? >> i think he could win the primary on this, but i don't think he'll win the general election. the polling says that americans really , really don't americans really, really don't love indictments. that's not something they look for in a presidential candidate. >> do you think commercially , >> do you think commercially, though, i mean, presumably he could actually monetise this mugshot somewhere? i mean , there

mugshot somewhere? i mean, there does appear to be quite a bit of merch on the go at the minute. >> yeah. i mean he monetises everything that's sort of his shtick and i think he definitely will. and we saw already his son is tweeting out links to merchandise and he the campaign is sending fundraising emails. look, this is a win in the primary for him . but he was primary for him. but he was already going to win the primary . and the question is, does the swing voter in wisconsin who's worried about her, you know, or her insurance premiums going up, does she care? does she want to vote for someone who's got two state indictments, two federal indictments and a superseding indictment? is that something that the american people want ? i that the american people want? i have trouble thinking , is it is have trouble thinking, is it is it a tricky one, though, for of the american population? >> because i can understand that completely. i could understand that somebody might think , i that somebody might think, i don't really want to vote for somebody who's indicted on somebody who's been indicted on x, y z. i could also x, y and z. i could also understand why somebody might

not somebody not want to vote for somebody who seems as they who maybe seems as though they are in mental decline and physical decline. i find it bizarre, if you don't mind me saying, as a as a as a brit over here, looking at your wonderful country from afar, i find it surprising that your great country, with all of these wonderful people in it has these two people standing for your president . see i mean, our president. see i mean, our inflation is like a fifth of yours, right? >> so , i mean, you may not like >> so, i mean, you may not like joe biden , but our inflation is joe biden, but our inflation is at two and a half, 3. yours is at two and a half, 3. yours is at 13 because of brexit. i mean, you're a country that's sanctioned itself because of brexit. so like, you may not like joe biden, but hey, he's only three years older than donald trump. and second of all, you know what has happened in our country since the pandemic is over is we're building chips, we're building we're building manufactures , plants. i mean, manufactures, plants. i mean, our country has had the largest influx of government spending .

influx of government spending. we're popping, you know , we're we're popping, you know, we're not going to have a recession. everyone is revising their estimates to say that we're going to have a soft landing. i mean, look, you may not like the suv- mean, look, you may not like the guy. you may not like the bike riding. you know, whatever. but the truth is, the proof is the truth is, like the proof is in pudding. know, in the pudding. you know, we have all countries in the have all of the countries in the world inflation has been world are inflation has been incredibly low considering what we've just been through . we've just been through. >> i do just want to pick you up on something because i don't know you're getting know where you're getting your stuff there. inflation is stuff from there. inflation is not in this country, but not at 13% in this country, but you are still doing you are still are still doing better still you are still doing better than us. that is one of than us. although that is one of the by—products, course, the by—products, of course, of you having a load of natural resources indeed those resources and indeed using those natural resources which unfortunately country unfortunately in this country we appear be at the mercy of the appear to be at the mercy of the green lobby and therefore we're not that. but, not we're not doing that. but, but actually , you were but yeah, actually, you were part europe and you guys part of europe and you guys decided to throw that all away. yeah of course, because now europe as well as at the mercy of putin. but i wasn't actually getting you on to slate your

country. i was genuinely just asking whether or you asking whether or not you thought joe biden would thought that joe biden would actually do rather well at the next election or whether not next election or whether or not trump him. so do trump might beat him. so do you think chance that think there's any chance that trump him ? trump might beat him? >> i mean, right now, every poll shows biden beating trump handily. now, if a third party comes in and there a lot of republicans who are very interested in propping up third party candidates because they know the only way. so an know that's the only way. so an rfk jr, you'll remember , was a rfk jr, you'll remember, was a right wing talking point for a while. well, there are a couple of other the dark horses out there . you could see that there. you could see that there's a group called no labels, is completely labels, which is completely funded by republicans. they're trying a third trying to run a third party candidate. possible the way candidate. it's possible the way the electoral college works, if you a party candidate you get a third party candidate out there , you skew it so out there, you could skew it so trump win . but i think if trump could win. but i think if it's an man against man it's an honest man against man fight, probably we'll see biden win. but, you know , anything can happen. >> do you think it is interesting to know how a lot of the american and world press went after trump for a variety

of different things, but you look at joe biden and his son and some of the previous links that they might have had with places like ukraine, and you just wonder whether or not they've been scrutinised enough .lookif they've been scrutinised enough . look if hunter biden did a crime , there is not a single crime, there is not a single democrat in this country who wouldn't tell you to lock him up. >> nobody cares . no, it's not >> nobody cares. no, it's not that biden is not i'm sure that if there's a problem with hunter and hunter did a crime , this is and hunter did a crime, this is the thing. what you guys don't understand, trumpism is a call. democrats just want a sort of normal government that works fine. you know, it's not this is not the same thing at all. and look, if you want to talk about taking money from foreign governments, i mean, you know, ivanka's husband, jared kushner , has a $2 billion fund that is sort that is funded by saudi arabia. >> right. okay. but crucially, it's not it's not the same thing at all. thank you very, very

much. molly. molly jong—fast joining me stateside. good stuff . right? okay. loads more still to now and 5:00 at to come between now and 5:00 at london, hit london, mayor sadiq khan has hit out ulez. labelling out at ulez. critics labelling them conspiracy theorists who don't believe is real. don't believe covid is real. just days before ulez is set to roll out across london. we will be debating that next. don't go anywhere. but first is your headunes. headlines. >> it's 432. i'm aaron armstrong in the newsroom. some breaking news coming to us. the director of the british museum says he's stepping down with immediate effect after artefacts were stolen from the institution over a period of time. in a statement , hartwig fischer the , hartwig fischer said the museum didn't respond as comprehensively as it should have when it was warned about the thefts in 2021. he accepted responsibility for that failure must ultimately rest with the director . the average household director. the average household will see a slight reduction in energy bills heading into the winter. the regulator, ofgem, is

concern . hirosi theorists is concern. hirosi theorists is this just a way of him trying to shut down anyone who disagrees with him? joining me now to discuss this is senior meteorologist at british weather services is jim dale and co—founder of the together declaration , alan miller. both declaration, alan miller. both of you, thank you very much. alan, i'll start with you . i alan, i'll start with you. i mean, you're sceptical of ulez are a conspiracy theorist . i are a conspiracy theorist. i think that , you know, it's a bit think that, you know, it's a bit like 1984 when the whatever the party decides to be, the truth is the truth. >> and the thing about the truth, as george orwell said, you can try and shut it out. but like the sun, it isn't going to go away. and when you have a mayor and his representatives who are trying to cajole and squash scientific results from imperial college and queen mary university, and when you ask questions or say, we're not happy about this, people call you names like far right and conspiracist, what they're really saying is they do not want to entertain engaging in

the virtue of their arguments. they don't want to argue out, thrash out the merits of the substantial parts of their points. they're scared to do that. it's what all petty tyrants and dictators do. they try to lie in office. okay. >> okay. jim if sadiq khan had serious, hard evidence that said, look, we are really genuinely going to save lives with this , why wouldn't he just with this, why wouldn't he just keep banging on about that? why does he have to call everybody else a crackpot? >> because basically they are conspiracy theorists . conspiracy theorists. >> everybody who >> that's not everybody who might be protesting on the streets. let's that streets. let's make that absolutely you know , absolutely clear. um, you know, people are people are led to a certain but are certain degree, but we are talking about same sort of talking about the same sort of people who deny climate change exists , the same of people exists, the same sort of people who perhaps that who who perhaps thought that covid didn't exist. >> then we can go back and say people who don't believe that people who don't believe that people on the moon and people landed on the moon and maybe earth society in maybe the flat earth society in exactly the same way. >> so throughout ages, >> so throughout the ages, you've you've got this contingent of people who just respond bandwagons respond to bandwagons for political respond to bandwagons for

politica but i mean, have you got >> but but i mean, have you got any evidence for that, though, jim ? jim? >> i've got any evidence. >> i've got any evidence. >> it's clear from what you see what the problem is on the other side , if you like this is not side, if you like this is not rocket science that car exhaust, particularly of diesel, are are bad for human health. >> bad bad for um , you know, the >> bad bad for um, you know, the general health of the public. i think we all know that we can go back to the 1960s and the clean air act and all the rest of it. this is the direction of travel. and although we're arguing it today, we know that this will come tuesday. me and you today, we know that this will congoing tuesday. me and you today, we know that this will congoing to tuesday. me and you today, we know that this will congoing to be esday. me and you today, we know that this will congoing to be inday. me and you today, we know that this will congoing to be in bromleyand you are going to be in bromley discussing it again. >> yes, are. we are. we're >> yes, we are. we are. we're going be on the streets. no, going to be on the streets. no, i that. all right. look, i get that. all right. look, alan, i'll throw it to you. i mean, you know, i'll just ask you the same question, really. i mean. i'll on what mean. well, i'll pick up on what jim said, actually, which is that, know, car exhaust that, you know, car exhaust fumes i suppose fumes are bad. so i suppose anything stops good i >> -- >> so what 5mm >> so what jim said, when you ask him for evidence, he said basically , no, i don't have any

basically, no, i don't have any evidence. but he said, you can see it everywhere. then he said, it's rocket science, as it's not rocket science, as though somehow he's rocket though somehow he's a rocket scientist. fact is this. scientist. but the fact is this. a few facts . the first fact is, a few facts. the first fact is, in the last four decades, air has been immeasurably improved . has been immeasurably improved. the next fact is sadiq khan has said 4000 people die every year of it. that's a complete lie. he extrapolated from the imperial previous imperial college research and did what they said don't do. then his representative, shirley rodnguez representative, shirley rodriguez , tried to get them to rodriguez, tried to get them to squash fact that the reports squash the fact that the reports did not say that it damages children's lungs and that it was looking badly on them and they tried to get it suffocated both from imperial and queen mary university. there's some facts. there's also some facts about the green billionaires that are funding some of these things. now, might call it now, you might call it a conspiracy for people to try and suffocate and shut down scientific evidence . but you scientific evidence. but you see, rather than giving out platitudes, which jim does and others do, i'd much more argue the merit and the content of the

points . ulez the merit and the content of the points. ulez is going to do nothing whatsoever to improve health. actually, if he was really serious about that, he'd get underground with transport for london to sort out some things down there and when you start calling the public names, a whole range of diverse people, vast majority of people, just ordinary people with lots of different backgrounds who are concerned grab and different backgrounds who are conybeing grab and different backgrounds who are conybeing listened grab and different backgrounds who are conybeing listened to. grab and different backgrounds who are conybeing listened to. it's'ab and not being listened to. it's a very dangerous all right. >> all right, jim , i'll throw it >> all right, jim, i'll throw it back to you. there's quite a few little scientific facts for you to come back out there. and i think there is a wider point, isn't there? is that if isn't there? which is that if you you do start to be you if you do start to be selective about the data that you're using, imperial study, for example, the way that they calculated how many deaths every single year pollution was causing is a bit squiffy. they just added the amount of hours it would people's lives it would take off people's lives and that per head of and then added that per head of population, it just population, for example, it just starts look as though they're starts to look as though they're manipulating their manipulating something in their direction, manipulating something in their diredo>n, manipulating something in their dire do you manipulating something in their diredo you know manipulating something in their dire do you know the manipulating something in their diredo you know the problem manipulating something in their dire do you know the problem with >> do you know the problem with with it be used in with data is it can be used in different directions. that's very my science,

very clear. my science, meteorology and what i've used is all time. and i hope is data all the time. and i hope that do things professionally that we do things professionally and well and for the right reasons and give the best information . i don't think information. i don't think people who measure pollution do do any differently. that's what they and i go back to the they do. and i go back to the point about this is this is not rocket science. is not i'm rocket science. this is not i'm not not changing the agenda not i'm not changing the agenda here trying to sort of mask here and trying to sort of mask things people. not things for people. i'm not labelling people either. >> you're >> i'm basically saying you're not. not helpful, is not. but it's not helpful, is it? you think do you it? do you do you think do you think it's helpful just think it's helpful because just i'll jim, because i'll keep with you, jim, because look i, i interview a lot look what i, i interview a lot of politicians days, for of politicians most days, for example, i know when example, and i know when somebody trying to shut down somebody is trying to shut down an argument and they always start calling people names. right. and that's what sadiq khan's sadiq khan is khan's doing. what sadiq khan is really saying when he's when he's about conspiracy he's talking about conspiracy theories think that you're theories is i think that you're a conspiracy theorist or i want other people to think that you're a conspiracy theorist if you're a conspiracy theorist if you disagree with ulez. and why does he need to do that? >> well, do you know what i think? think i always when

think? i think i always when i when i have these discussions and sometimes they go into and sometimes they do go into the political arena, always the political arena, i always look why would look for motives. why would somebody be side somebody want to be on one side rather than other side? and rather than the other side? and normally leads to either normally it leads to either political positions, postures , political positions, postures, if you there's an election if you like. there's an election coming up in london. we know that. and it seems to me that the reform uk and conservative mayoral candidates have jumped on that bandwagon. and that's what they're doing. on the other side, there's the there's the fossil fuel industry and what they're doing in terms say, they're doing in terms of, say, tufton street providing, uh, financial, financial , let's just financial, financial, let's just say financial pipelines to, to these people who , who put these people who, who put themselves on television and propose , propose exactly what's propose, propose exactly what's been proposed here that ulez is, is wrong thing to do. it's is the wrong thing to do. it's step by step. it's the right thing to do. and by the way, most londoners accept this in polls over 50. and that's polls well over 50. and that's before many people actually know the details. the actual details. >> me let me put that >> now, let me let me put that to alan then. i mean, alan, to alan then. so i mean, alan, is that not a point that the opinion do they suggest opinion polls do they suggest that most people are in favour

of this ? of this? >> no, they absolutely don't. >> no, they absolutely don't. >> and in fact, if you actually look consulting , the look at the consulting, the so—called consultation where the majority people they did majority of people said they did not it, so they can't say, not want it, so they can't say, well, that's not of interest. it's not like we're doing a referendum. i don't in referendum. i don't care. in fact, some the wrong people fact, some of the wrong people have actual have responded to the actual consultation the consultation on one of the things that can't seem to things that jim can't seem to address answer. if you want address and answer. if you want to talk about evidence and facts, this with the amount facts, is this with the amount of people that concerned of people that are concerned about cost living about the cost of living crisis specifics of charging people for something the smoking something unlike the smoking ban, it can still ban, you're saying it can still carry on, but we're just going to charge it has been to charge you? it has been conceded recognised by conceded and recognised by imperial college's research and by queen mary university that these claims are not substantiated. they were paid for by sadiq khan's office over £800,000. what we see is people and i go out all the time, just so we're clear, i go out all the time on the street. we and the reason i do it is because i'm very concerned that in london, like in other cities, we are having these impositions done where people are just telling us

these platitudes calling these platitudes and calling us names. want to improve names. if you want to improve the quality and respect for the demos and the public have the actual debate and discussion and avoid smear tactics. >> on that note, on that note, now, jim, i was at the council at the bag a bit there. i'm going to be doing a ulez special on tuesday from bromley, which is areas that is is one of the areas that is going get more ulez and going to get more ulez and actually it might be quite nice. i don't know if you're around on tuesday, it might quite tuesday, but it might be quite nice there as well. nice to see you there as well. we can chat after this, but this is the kind of debate that needs to and so we're to be had. right. and so we're going to do more of it. thank you very much, i did you very much, charles. i did enjoy much. now enjoy that very much. now despite the cost of living crisis, severance pay of mps crisis, the severance pay of mps is double in next is set to double in the next general election. our general election. do our politicians a rise, politicians deserve a pay rise, especially if they're quitting, and if and especially, frankly, if they've absolutely blimming they've been absolutely blimming awful. news awful. patrick christys gb news britain's .

sunday mornings from 930 on. gb news. >> welcome back. it is 449. you're watching patrick christys on gb news payments for mps who lose their seats or stepped down at the next general election are to be doubled, giving them a tasty £17,300 worth of your money. now it's provided to help them close down their offices, manage the departure of their staff at the last general election, departing mps were paid for two months, but now it's gone up, thanks to whatever

ipso have just decided it's going to be for months. let's cross over to westminster, speak to gb news political editor christopher hope. chris topher thank you. now, if you've already decided you're going to stand down, why do you need an extra four months after the election or whatever it is to get your affairs in order? that's a good question because they have got staff who can, of course unwind their their , uh, course unwind their their, uh, their their interests. >> they can pass on to the next mp who's elected to replace them after the election. why four months, ipso months, not two months? ipso have looked at this. there was a big consultation earlier this yeah big consultation earlier this year. they they found that some staff working the staff were working beyond the two period on the handover two month period on the handover . they feel that giving . and so they feel that giving four enough time. that four months is enough time. that means rather than £8,600 paid to the mp 17,300 will go in their pockets on top of any redundancy payments. of course, they forget , like in any job, you lose your job, you get redundancy, they get 5000 or £6000 roughly for every five years. service so that's a rule of thumb figure.

so you know, there's a debate to be had. cost of living crisis. this will cost probably hundreds of thousands of pounds on on our the cost of this country and how to run it . the cost of this country and how to run it. it's the cost of this country and how to run it . it's worth the cost of this country and how to run it. it's worth a the cost of this country and how to run it . it's worth a debate to run it. it's worth a debate and i think what ipso do they blame the abolition of what's called the fixed term parliaments act. that's brought in by the liberal democrats back in by the liberal democrats back in 2011 to guarantee an election every five years that was dropped by the tories because it became unworkable and didn't meet with the way that normal all politics works . so the fact all politics works. so the fact they can now can be elections really whenever means they want to give more time to unwind the offices. but you can say what are the staff doing? the staff are the staff doing? the staff are there to manage all this admin . do mps to be paid admin. do mps need to be paid while working those while they working those those extra after the election? extra months after the election? >> question. do they get >> good question. do they get too much time off anyway? christopher know, i'm christopher you know, i'm looking situation now. looking at this situation now. we've got crisis after crisis after and there's after crisis and there's swanning whatever after crisis and there's swan do g whatever after crisis and there's swan do . whatever after crisis and there's swan do . well whatever after crisis and there's swan do . well what whatever after crisis and there's swan do . well what do whatever

after crisis and there's swan do . well what do they ever after crisis and there's swando . well what do they doer they do. well what do they do when they're not here? >> they're with their constituents at home. we can't see that. it's not a public facing role in a sense. national press behind me. the mps aren't there. around 100 there. they're there around 100 days 300. they're sitting days out of 300. they're sitting in parliament. the other other times meant to run, run times they're meant to run, run their constituencies, their offices in constituencies, meet local people, champion meet with local people, champion their causes . and some do, some their causes. and some do, some don't. some have very safe seats, don't need to try too hard. others are marginal seats, work really hard. so social media is a guide to it, but they are. they hold an office. so these aren't jobs like you and i have. these are office holders and how they fulfil that office is up for grabs every five years or so an election. and that's or so at an election. and that's how works. how it works. >> . indeed. >> now. indeed. well, christopher, very , christopher, thank you very, very much. christopher very much. it's christopher hope, our political hope, though, is our political editor outside westminster. i'm just say it again. you just going to say it again. you know, do think that if know, i really do think that if you are mp and you quit you are an mp and you quit before you are out by the before you are booted out by the taxpayer you've months, taxpayer and you've got months, months months and months to months and months and months to plan for why on earth do plan for that, why on earth do we then have pay you more? we then have to pay you more? £17,300 more on top of your

salary to get your affairs in order? how important was the job that you were doing to begin with? i don't think it would have been that important otherwise. have otherwise. you might have been doing a better of it and doing a betterjob of it and therefore we wouldn't be voting you another you out. and that's another point well. if you get point as well. if you get elected to parliament through a prime and you prime minister and then you don't prime minister don't back that prime minister like they did with boris, and then else then they put someone else in and dont then they put someone else in and don't back that and then they don't back that person then you end person either. and then you end up where you are and then you don't do things that the public vote like, oh, i don't know, vote for like, oh, i don't know, cut migration or sort out cut net migration or sort out what's going the channel what's going on on the channel or anything really, you or anything really, and then you get out. are we still get voted out. why are we still paying get voted out. why are we still paying that? paying paying for that? we're paying for failure on failure. on failure. i just think it's an absolute anyway, absolute shocker. anyway, gbviews@gbnews.com absolute shocker. anyway, gbvie' uleanews.com absolute shocker. anyway, gbvie'ulez people om absolute shocker. anyway, gbvie'ulez people saying in on ulez people saying that talking emissions talking about exhaust emissions fair degree. fair enough to a certain degree. however, vehicles however, these electric vehicles are greener. that's from are not any greener. that's from peter. peter, think there may peter. peter, i think there may be to the components be alluding to the components that go into these electric vehicles. yeah, absolutely. we are ulez day, are very close to ulez day, aren't lots of reaction as aren't we? lots of reaction as well into our american well coming into our american friend was on show

putin's illegal to war help families by imposing a windfall tax on energy companies using that money to provide about £1,500 of support to a typical household. but i know things are still tough, and that's why we are working night and day to bnng are working night and day to bring down inflation an so that the money in people's pockets can go further. however charities say the price cut offers little relief for vulnerable customers who are still worried about bills this winter . winter. >> i have arthritis and i've found that i haven't been able to put my heating on in the winter as much, and it's caused a lot of difference to my health in the house. >> you know, you can see your smart metre and it's rising , you smart metre and it's rising, you know, showers and then boiling the kettle and you really realise how much it costs us per time. >> then a lot of people are going to suffer really, really bad. >> i mean they reckon the energy costs are coming down. >> i don't think they're coming down that much by how much? >> when you think they're >> i mean when you think they're making billions of making billions out of the customer out there and i think

point, but the marine unit stopped , kept his rigid stopped, kept his rigid inflatable , asked for details. inflatable, asked for details. he was allowed to go . but then he was allowed to go. but then a matter of weeks later, of course , he was arrested when the national crime agency were able to bust this particular people smuggling gang. it was a coastguard helicopter that spotted them . they were spotted them. they were offloading some migrants that they'd taken across from belgium to joss bay beach in kent . and to joss bay beach in kent. and the coastguard helicopter spotted them and passed that on to the national crime agency. they launched an investigation and found that this group hadn't just one rigid inflatable, but they bought a second one. again, we can show you some more video that shows one of the rigid inflatable was being towed behind this vehicle at the breitling sea marina in essex . breitling sea marina in essex. and they used a false identity to get a mooring point for that

rigid inflatable. there and then bought another one, 20 200 £0 for the rigid inflatable. so it gives you an indication that these are not the kind of cheap or made to order plasticky boats that are coming across the engush that are coming across the english channel packed to the gunwales with migrants. these are are much more robust and faster with bigger engines effectively , you know , the you effectively, you know, the you know, they can just jet across the english channel much , much the english channel much, much quicker than the other small boats that we're used to seeing crossing the channel. >> i think it's that sentence though mark, you know 13 years as a collective sentence so for four people so presumably out in half of that i mean it's not a deterrent to be a human trafficker . trafficker. >> well, i think that's fair comment . five years for the >> well, i think that's fair comment. five years for the man that was described as the organiser . that was described as the organiser. so you're right, you

could potentially be out in two and a half years. is that really and a half years. is that really a deterrent to a criminal enterprise that nets people many, many thousand of pounds? we know, for instance , in the we know, for instance, in the channel crossings they can be charged between 3 and £5000 per boat trip and 50 odd people on a boat trip and 50 odd people on a boat there. they can make millions of pounds on a busy day in the channel. >> absolutely. look, mark, thank you very, very much. mark white there. home is security editor. and we can also exclusively reveal that young british women often toxicated, often apparently in toxicated, sometimes undress, sometimes in states of undress, are featured in adverts by are being featured in adverts by human trafficking gangs, people smuggling, gangs. really, human trafficking gangs, people smuggling, gangs . really, we've smuggling, gangs. really, we've been handed evidence from a cyber contact, multiple different accounts are using these videos now, and some of those accounts have hundreds of thousands of followers . and thousands of followers. and sources claim that the videos are being entice young are being used to entice young men from north africa to come through europe and into the uk by basically saying , look, by basically saying, look, here's what's on offer . if

by basically saying, look, here's what's on offer. if you come across the channel to britain, look at this bevvy of young, intoxicated women you can have at them. mark white made us this package earlier on. >> this is without doubt an extremely worrying development at multiple social media accounts discovered on instagram , which cyber experts are conveying . ernst are fronts for conveying. ernst are fronts for people smugglers touting for business is what's most alarming . are the many videos on these accounts of young british women offer often appearing drunk and sometimes scantily clad, apparent , unwitting victims of apparent, unwitting victims of the criminal gangs. there were told to entice young male migrants to use the smugglers services and travel to the uk along with the many videos of young women , are others showing young women, are others showing migrants using people smuggling routes by land and by sea . gb routes by land and by sea. gb news was handed the evidence by a cyber contact who works on

machine learning algorithms . machine learning algorithms. another source said they believed this to be an advertising campaign , one aimed advertising campaign, one aimed predominantly at young north african men . the social media african men. the social media posts are similar to those used regularly by smuggling gangs. last year, two entice many young male albanians to travel to the uk, advertised the apparent high life young migrants could enjoy. they featured sports cars and wads of cash . those posts helped wads of cash. those posts helped encourage more than 12,000 albanians to make the illegal channel crossing last year. earlier this month, home secretary suella braverman condemned what she called heartless people smugglers, exploiting social media posts to promote their criminal enterprise . she announced that enterprise. she announced that all the main social media companies had agreed to work with uk law enforcement to help

crack down on the problem . mark crack down on the problem. mark white gb news is yeah , i mean, white gb news is yeah, i mean, it's astonishing stuff, isn't it? >> and loads of people have been saying for absolutely ages, haven't they? you importing a load of blokes from a part of the world where women are treated like property and second class citizens and frankly the age of consent is a very grey area as well. and then just dropping them on the streets of britain going have massive britain is going to have massive issues. to going rapes issues. we're to going see rapes go going to see sexual go up. we're going to see sexual attacks and don't need attacks go up. and we don't need any help with that because we've already got massive problem already got a massive problem when comes to rape and sexual when it comes to rape and sexual assault haven't assault in this country, haven't we? are we doing and we? so why are we doing it? and now actually, you go. it now actually, there you go. it is advertised. come to is being advertised. come to britain. okay can have britain. okay and you can have your pick of all these your pick of all of these intoxicated young girls and the other bit for me about this is that everything else that is advertised to them is true, isn't when you see these isn't it? when you see these promotional from human promotional videos from human traffickers and they show them pictures they show pictures of hotels, they show them the boats them the pictures of the boats across they across the channel, they them the pictures of the mobile

phones get. they the pictures of the mobile pho all get. they the pictures of the mobile pho all of get. they the pictures of the mobile pho all of that. get. they the pictures of the mobile pho all of that. so jet. they the pictures of the mobile pho all of that. so why they the pictures of the mobile pho all of that. so why would get all of that. so why would they not think they would also get the women? rebecca jane joins deputy leader of joins me now, deputy leader of ukip rebecca, very, ukip. rebecca, thank you very, very much . i hope really very much. i hope this really wakes a few people up to the fact that what's going on in the channel. yeah, you know what cost taxpayer of cost the taxpayer a lot of money. that's bad. it's bad for just in general really. money. that's bad. it's bad for just in general really . but just in general really. but actually it's a massive threat to and girls. it's to women and girls. it's a massive threat to everyone into it. >> and i think that one of the most appalling things that actually we've just heard there is suella braverman says to is how suella braverman says to the media channels that the social media channels that you to help us work with uk you need to help us work with uk law enforcement. when law law enforcement. when uk law enforcement exactly the enforcement is exactly the reason got this reason why we've got this problem. have long been problem. i have long been ranting for the last nine months about we're one of the only about how we're one of the only countries that do not have any criminal checks for people coming our country. what coming into our country. what happens when they get dropped off on our shores is they sit with a social worker and the social says, are you social worker says, are you a murderer? you a rapist? and murderer? are you a rapist? and they no, not. and then they go, no, i'm not. and then they go, no, i'm not. and then

they go, no, i'm not. and then they go , fantastic. off you pop they go, fantastic. off you pop into britain here's into britain and here's a wonderful, beautiful for wonderful, beautiful life for you. is disgusting. you. this video is disgusting. absolutely disgusting. it's an embarrassment . and rather than embarrassment. and rather than telling social media channels that they need to be working with us, our government are completely out of control and they are the people that need to crack down on these matters. first of all, starting with criminal checks and turning the boats back around. it's not hard i >> -- >> and do you think that when you look at videos as basically advertising young women and you see the videos that we're showing you now, which is boatloads of young men, i mean, thatis boatloads of young men, i mean, that is where they're going, isn't it? you see these women now on your screen and not much older to be fair. older than girls, to be fair. certainly in case what certainly in the case of what we're seeing now on your we're seeing right now on your screen, i think. and you think. right. is it any wonder that we've boatloads north we've got boatloads of north african over here if african men coming over here if they're they just they're told that they can just take those women ? take advantage of those women? >> not in the >> of course, it's not in the slightest . looks the slightest. it looks like the perfect holiday . the perfect new

perfect holiday. the perfect new life will literally be living in gangsta's paradise for goodness sakes. is completely and sakes. this is completely and utterly atrocious . aukus. and utterly atrocious. aukus. and then obviously we've got the matter that we've literally just heard about that. if you are a people smuggler, some of those sentences are absolutely disgusting and it's embarrassing to be part of our country. two and a half years for some of them is disgraceful. so you can make millions of pounds. i'm sure there's a whole lot of people who'd like to go to jail and spend, you know, maybe a yearin and spend, you know, maybe a year in jail and make a couple of million on the side. it's not a deterrent. we never have been and never going to be and we're never going to be until our hands up and until we put our hands up and say, we're really sorry. we've got it wrong, and here is how we're to going fix it. >> i think that back in the day, we used get the old kind of we used to get the old kind of ruddy faced politician that would women want would say, well, if women want to on nights then to be safer on nights out, then they shouldn't out wearing they shouldn't go out wearing that of thing. okay? and that sort of thing. okay? and everyone going, everyone was going, what a horrible are. how dare everyone was going, what a horrsay are. how dare everyone was going, what a horrsay that? are. how dare everyone was going, what a horrsay that? i are. how dare everyone was going, what a horrsay that? i think. how dare everyone was going, what a horrsay that? i think we yw dare

everyone was going, what a horrsay that? i think we nownre you say that? i think we now have a cohort of politicians and spokespeople. et cetera . who are spokespeople. et cetera. who are so fanatical about what's going on in the channel that they actually will start telling women to cover up and drink less because don't to because they don't want to offend channel. migrants offend the channel. migrants >> i agree. do you know >> yeah, i agree. do you know why? politicians why? because politicians today are utterly out are completely and utterly out of touch with reality. and the real it's another reason real person. it's another reason why i keep on saying we have to get rid of these career politicians. because you don't think with common sense it's not a they even a quality that they even remotely possess. so yeah, it's all probably going to get put back us. it's probably back onto us. it's probably going get bit more victim going to get a bit more victim blaming. you should dress better, drink as better, you shouldn't drink as much. you need to much. you know what you need to get yourselves back into parliament your parliament and sort out your laws instead. parliament and sort out your lawwell,ead. parliament and sort out your lawwell, that's other thing. >> well, that's the other thing. that's isn't that's the other thing, isn't it? meanwhile, of this is it? meanwhile, all of this is happening. where they? where happening. where are they? where are we're giving are they? and we're we're giving them golden handshake are they? and we're we're giving thethe golden handshake are they? and we're we're giving thethe out. golden handshake are they? and we're we're giving thethe out. rebecca1andshake are they? and we're we're giving thethe out. rebecca jane,�*|ake on the way out. rebecca jane, thank much. rebecca thank you very much. rebecca jane there, deputy leader of ukip. what do you make of all of that? the for me that? i think the idea for me now women and girls are are now that women and girls are are under massive threat as a result

of going in the of what's going on in the channelis of what's going on in the channel is surely be beyond any doubt. not again doubt. i mean is it not again i'll emphasise clearly not everybody coming across the channelis everybody coming across the channel is any way a sexual channel is in any way a sexual predator. that's the point predator. that's not the point i'm and we do i'm making. and yet we do already a massive problem already have a massive problem with it here. seen loads with it here. we've seen loads of about police of court cases about police officers. goodness officers. for goodness sake. we don't any help, do don't need any help, though, do we? introducing more people we? introducing some more people into given it's being into that, given that it's being advertised to them. vaiews@gbnews.com but is the climate crisis as well for this disproportionate going to impact the lgbt q plus community? hey thatis the lgbt q plus community? hey that is what some gender activists are warning. we'll be having that discussion next. patrick christys gb news

or the people's channel. britain's news . or the people's channel. britain's news. channel >> welcome back . it's 522. >> welcome back. it's 522. you're watching patrick christys on gb news. now, as if the climate change wasn't worrying enough for everybody, we are now being warned that it could indirectly affect the lgbtq+ community. yes, activists claim that queer people are on the front line of the climate crisis lacking in access to safe and affordable housing, health care and jobs, all of which are compounded by extreme weather. i'm joined now by human rights campaigner peter tatchell and environmental educator isayas hernando . as both of you, thank hernando. as both of you, thank you very, very much. and isayas, i'll start with you . do you i'll start with you. do you think the climate crisis is going to disproportionately

affect lgbtq+ people ? affect lgbtq+ people? >> absolutely. the climate crisis is known to affect black indigenous people of colour. >> also communities that are of course historically white. >> and i think something important to note is that , you important to note is that, you know, when we talk about the climate crisis, we're not just just about white just talking about white people's race. >> we're talking multiple >> we're talking about multiple shared identities, that shared identities, those that are and trans, those with are queer and trans, those with disabilities , those who may not disabilities, those who may not have asylum . have asylum. >> just going to rain >> sorry, i'm just going to rain this just going to this one in. i'm just going to rain this one in early doors. how is it affecting gay people worse than other people? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> so queer and trans communities don't have access to proper health care already due to socioeconomic standards . to socioeconomic standards. >> so as the climate crisis continues to get worse, such as heat that are happening heat waves that are happening across many of these across cities, many of these communities don't already have access affordable housing, so access to affordable housing, so then they're forced to go to local cooling centres , which are local cooling centres, which are often shut down or overpacked with people are already with people who are already unhoused . so communities unhoused. so these communities are forced out of these are often forced out of these spaces. >> peter, whereabouts in britain

do we have this cohort of gay people who are , it would appear, people who are, it would appear, living on the streets , unable to living on the streets, unable to access health care or get any housing and therefore will be massively impacted by climate change? i just don't understand this at all. what >> well, first, let me say that obviously early climate destruction threatens us all. everyone is at risk. so it's an issue for all of us. yeah, but it is true that marginalised communities , cities, whether communities, cities, whether they be lgbt disabled people, black and ethnic minorities, are possibly at more risk because on average their income is much less so when they're faced with. hang on a minute. >> hang on a minute. i'm not having that. i'm sorry, peter. i'm not having that at all. all right. because a load a load of people who are in same sex relationships don't end up having and therefore having kids and therefore don't pay having kids and therefore don't pay accumulate pay for the kids. and accumulate some kind of costs that some of the kind of costs that a lot of people who are in straight relationships do have. so sorry, i don't i just

so i'm sorry, i don't i just don't buy this idea at all that we living in a country full of impoverished gay people. it's not the reality. we both live in the same country. peter it's not true. >> no, no, patrick, i wasn't saying that. was saying that saying that. i was saying that on lgbt earnings on average, lgbt plus earnings are often, often, not always, but often less than that of the average straight person . but get average straight person. but get back to the main issue. i'll just you one example. just give you one example. dunng just give you one example. during recent horrific during the recent horrific bushfires in greece, a same sex couple with a young child went to an emergency shelter which they'd been assigned to as victims of the fire and they were turned away because the shelter didn't want to accept a gay person and their kid . gay person and their kid. >> now there's an example of discrimination not far away in developing countries, but right in here in europe, i'm not i really you know, i don't want to say i don't believe that because that's whatever that person's lived experience was. >> but relation to those >> but in relation to those fires, were also told that fires, we were also told that they to climate change they were down to climate change and behold, 70

and lo and behold, about 70 people have now been arrested for arson. so there quite a for arson. so there is quite a lot about lot of misinformation about that. isaiah, i will just throw it to you. you genuinely it back to you. so you genuinely are the mindset that climate are of the mindset that climate , that climate change is going to disproportionately affect people because because they are gay or trans, is that right? and that's because all of those people are worse off. >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> so what i'm trying to say is that the climate crisis is not directing nor attacking directly queer and trans communities systemically. >> if we look at it through a legal institutional lens, policies and practises have been discriminatory towards minority communities specifically. also those that hold lgbt identities are already through a systemic systemic lens, don't have access to those resources. >> now i want you to explain that to me now. now, this is a bit i need you to explain to me. right, because you're in los angeles. okay? so you guys might do things differently over there. the we have national there. the we have a national health service here. so health service over here. so whether straight, whether you're gay, straight, whatever can walk whatever else, you can just walk into that and care. we

into that and access care. we have national education have a national education service . so whether service as well. so whether you're straight you're gay or straight or whatever, on that whatever, you can get on that pubuc whatever, you can get on that public transport, we have that. so are you gay, straight, trans? you on that. that you can get on that. that doesn't exist in america . doesn't exist in america. >> does. >> it does. >> it does. >> but we're talking specifically about climate disaster . so institutionally, disaster. so institutionally, when are already forcibly when people are already forcibly displaced by climate events such as floods, hurricanes and wildfires, these centres that are opened up are already often have such barriers, such as those who are already in those shelters, perpetuate homophobia or transphobic remarks. the people that are in those shelters are often pushing for certain policies and practises to prevent queer and trans communities to get those services. now i'm not saying that when you're going to the medical office or the doctor's office or other education resources, that you'll be turned away being gay trans. away for being gay and trans. however, in the united however, here in the united states now we're seeing much more stricter and bans more stricter laws and bans towards trans towards queer and trans ideologies in educational resources that should have been invested in these communities due right wing conservative due to right wing conservative

groups that were facing today . groups that were facing today. >> right. okay. and just yeah, please, please, for the love of god, early in the developing world. >> patrick, there have already been well documented examples in poorer countries where there have been floods, hurricanes and fires of lgbt, plus people going to emergency centres seeking help and being turned away. and those who have been accepted and some have been accepted have been subjected to abuse and threats from other people in the emergency shelters . emergency shelters. >> is this happening here? is this is this happening here in britain ? britain? >> emphasise it is an issue for everyone. it is not brits though, is it? >> i mean, is it happening here in britain or are we talking about someone going, you know, someone? right. okay. so no, it's not right. okay all right. but it happening quite a lot but it is happening quite a lot in america. yeah. >> yes, absolutely. >> yes, absolutely. >> america, but in >> not about america, but in developing countries like bangladesh, , in some bangladesh, in pakistan, in some south asian countries that have suffered. >> but that's not right. okay. but that's down to right but that's not down to right wing conservatism that it.

wing conservatism. that is it. peter like our chap was saying, no , no, no, no. right. so what's no, no, no, no. right. so what's that down those countries? what's that down to. >> well i think there are various cultural views in some of those countries that are hostile to lgbtq+ people. right. and when it comes to a crisis or an emergency, sadly , the lgbtq+ an emergency, sadly, the lgbtq+ victims sometimes not always, but sometimes do face discrimination and they can't access the services that are available to everyone else. right >> okay. both of you, thank you very, very much. that's peter tatchell, human rights campaigner and environmental educator. is hernandez. good educator. as is hernandez. good stuff . thank you very much. the stuff. thank you very much. the weekend soon. there's more still to come between now and 6:00 with the pandem. nic now in a rear view mirror, what do you think about families suing the government over covid deaths? that's all coming up. but first, it's that's all coming up. but first, wsfime that's all coming up. but first, it's time for your headlines.

action against the government care homes and several hospitals over the deaths of loved ones dunng over the deaths of loved ones during the early stages of the pandemic . pandemic. >> there's quite a lot to this story, actually, so relatives are arguing that the state failed to protect them and are claiming damages for the loss of life in distress. now, their case is all relate to deaths back in 2020, when patients with covid were transferred from hospitals to care homes, the reason i say there's a lot to this is that i am not seeing many people. if anyone at all, being compensated for deaths in relation to vaccines, for example . there is also, of example. there is also, of course, the argument isn't there, that there was a massive scandal of people going from hospitals to care homes. that is tantamount to something along the lines of corporate manslaughter, etcetera, and that that should be prosecuted. where does that end? there is the other side of it as well. it was the early days of this virus. we didn't know everything about it. we know what was going we didn't know what was going on. was absolute the

on. it was absolute chaos. the world was in freefall. so should people be now allowed to people really be now allowed to sue the government and care homes and whoever else for things that happened quite near the start of the covid pandemic 7 the start of the covid pandemic ? joining me now to discuss this is amanda hunter, co—founder of unlock care homes, who campaigned against care home restrictions during the pandemic . amanda, look, thank you very much. where are you on this then? i'm a bit conflicted. i've got to be honest about about where i stand on it. so where are you? should people be able, as trying to now sue the as they're trying to now sue the government care homes, government and care homes, etcetera, quite deaths etcetera, for quite early deaths in the pandemic? what do you think ? think? >> well, think families need >> well, i think families need answers . answers. >> i certainly think families need answers and need need answers and they need justice and they need closure for what happened because many families , you know, locked families were, you know, locked outside of care homes. >> they weren't allowed to go in. their families were, you know, . know, deteriorated. >> um, all the way through. and they were unable to visit and look after their loved ones and

powerless to do anything about it. and it was heartbreaking for the residents involved, many of whom had dementia, didn't know what was happening, were terrified, and, you know, families were locked out and they did deteriorate. >> and i think in protecting them from covid, we didn't protect them because you know, matt hancock said that he'd put a you know, the government had put a protective ring around care home residents and the vulnerable that didn't happen because then they discharged people, you know , from hospital people, you know, from hospital into care home without testing. so families were being so while families were being treated like vectors of disease, many of whom were actually at home, isolating themselves, you know, covid was coming in through, you know, via the hospitals and care home residents were like sitting ducks. and so . ducks. and so. >> yeah. so do you do you think that the rules lives of somebody in a care home who died, who was

in a care home who died, who was in a care home who died, who was in a room next door to somebody who had been allowed into that care home from a hospital with covid, etcetera, should receive compensation ? compensation? >> i don't know about compensation . ocean. i certainly compensation. ocean. i certainly needi compensation. ocean. i certainly need i think they need justice. >> i think they need answers. >> i think they need answers. >> and those responses for these policies, which let's let's face it, the far more people died from the impacts of isolation and neglect and the fact that doctors were not going in to pick up, you know, medical problems. and obviously with families locked outside, they weren't picking up . and it weren't picking it up. and it was slower for workers was much slower for care workers who, you know, maybe could be agency workers weren't able to , agency workers weren't able to, you know, didn't know the resident. >> and so, you know, there are there are questions to be answered. >> i think i think the difficulty for me , yeah, i get difficulty for me, yeah, i get all of this completely and people will think of huge amount of different things on it. i think the difficulty is that it it'd be nice to have one person to blame really, wouldn't it? and however much people might

dislike, people like matt hancock, etcetera , it's not just hancock, etcetera, it's not just as simple as that. what i would hate to see happen is that people who were running those care homes are the ones who get sued and they will say, following the government advice or they didn't really know what to do or they've got, you know, with best will in the world, with the best will in the world, a building full of people with incredibly needs who incredibly complex needs who maybe weren't able to enforce restrictions. i mean, look, i don't know . do you it's don't know. do you think it's all matt hancock? >> no, i don't think it's all matt hancock, but these were decisions that were despite decisions that were made despite the fact that people were saying, know, people , you saying, you know, people, you know, people were know, clinicians, people were experts on on people with dementia. they knew the impact that this would have. i mean, 70% of people who are in care homes have some form of dementia . this was a terrible experiment to unleash on the nation. and many, many people suffered and more people died as said, from the impact of restrictions and died from covid in care homes. and that's something we need to

remember . remember. >> i think it absolutely is something that we need to remember because to make remember because we need to make sure, especially with winter around the corner. i know there's lot in america there's a lot of talk in america at the moment about whether or not going have more not they're going to have more restrictions. mean, i can't restrictions. i mean, i can't see happening, especially see that happening, especially not everybody not in a country where everybody appears a gun. appears to have a gun. but, i mean, i don't that's going mean, i don't think that's going to be happening over here at all. just the flip all. i suppose just the flip side to what you're saying there, if i can put that forward, whilst fewer forward, is whilst fewer restrictions homes restrictions in care homes would have probably given a have probably given people a better life and maybe better quality of life and maybe they maybe people care they maybe more people in care homes because homes would have died because i suppose covid would have dispute that. >> and i also think that, you know, one of the biggest problems during the pandemic well, you know, one of the women who was who was campaigning about this and bringing the case said that, you know, in the care home, they were going around like headless chickens and i think that was very much the case. certainly in the early days, was a lot of days, there was a lot of conflicting advice coming from different government . different areas of government. >> had, you know, public

>> so you had, you know, public health england saying one thing, local infection control saying another . another thing. >> you know, there was no clear guidance and was very guidance and it was very difficult for them to keep up with was being asked of them. >> do you do you think do you think with respect, do you think that if people are which they are trying to sue the government care homes and anybody else for , you know, their relatives dying in the early stages of covid, that people now should be able to sue the government and vaccine companies for deaths attributed to vaccines . attributed to vaccines. >> that's not something i you know, i feel i can comment on really . really. >> um, um, i think we need a lot more information before we, you know, those kind of cases can come forward. >> i mean, certainly the evidence seems to suggest that there are harms certainly there are harms and we certainly need answers on that. and we know that we were lied to about, you know, for example , you know, you know, for example, you know, with mandate , with with the vaccine mandate, with care we were told that, care workers, we were told that, you know, everybody should be

vaccinated was vaccinated because this was going people from going to protect people from transmission. know that transmission. we now know that that not the case. so that was not the case. so i think in in protecting care home residents, in theory , we residents, in theory, we actually protected them, too you to death really many , many more to death really many, many more died, as i said, from the impact of restrictions . of restrictions. >> and what i you know, what i what i hope comes families i really sympathise with the families and think that they should justice and they should have answers. >> yeah , absolutely. >> yeah, absolutely. >> yeah, absolutely. >> absolutely . we're going to >> absolutely. we're going to have to leave you there, i'm afraid. amanda, sorry to cut across you, but we're a bit pressed for time. but, you know, i will. i will leave with this, which i think that of all of which is i think that of all of the different aspects to this that just covered there. that we've just covered there. so working in the so people who are working in the care may losing their care homes may be losing their jobs pressured to get jobs or feeling pressured to get a vaccine that maybe they didn't want. so fair bit of let's put want. so a fair bit of let's put it nicely, miscommunication want. so a fair bit of let's put it came, miscommunication want. so a fair bit of let's put it came , nmaybe1unication want. so a fair bit of let's put it came, nmaybe some tion want. so a fair bit of let's put it came, nmaybe some elements it came to maybe some elements of that vaccine, actual of that vaccine, the actual people and the total people who died and the total disorganisation, bad disorganisation, the bad decisions that made by

decisions that were made by government, et cetera. government, etcetera. et cetera. et i just hope never et cetera. i just hope we never do anything this again, do anything like this again, because the never do it. we must never do anything like this again because it was bound to the bad for everyone. it's bad for everyone, for the british pubuc for everyone, for the british public to ensure that that does not happen again. exactly. amanda thank you. thank you. thank amanda hunter, that thank you. amanda hunter, that co—founder care homes. co—founder of unlock care homes. they it. they campaigned against it. yeah. asking yeah. i've been asking you whether think that whether or not you think that the composer right now and it's who you go after a statement who do you go after a statement from of health from the department of health and said , throughout and social care said, throughout the was the pandemic, our aim was to protect the from the protect the public from the threat to health posed by covid. and we specify specific , i think and we specify specific, i think that says, yes, it does specifically sought to safeguard care residents based on the care home residents based on the best information that we had at the time. there we go. i'm the time. so there we go. i'm going to go into this inbox right lots of reaction to right now. lots of reaction to the conversations i had not so long ago about whether or not the climate crisis was going to disproportionately affect members of the lgbt q plus community gbviews@gbnews.com. and we have got two people

arguing about whether or not whether is going to discriminate against lgbt people. what i find fascinating about that was we had a chat. we've had i think i'm right. i think i'm fairto i'm right. i think i'm fair to say this we've had three interesting characters from america today on this show and not all of them, i think, were portraying a kind of world that i recognise . but hey, they've i recognise. but hey, they've got their truth, haven't they? but that last chat that we had on saying that in america , on was saying that in america, according to him, members of the lgbtq community are so lgbtq plus community are so tragically disadvantaged that when have to seek refuge when they have to seek refuge from the climate, they are turned down. i think what what emerged quite quickly there was that he wasn't necessarily talking about america to mainly the developing world, where that then fell apart was that his then all fell apart was that his argument was down to argument was this was down to right conservatism . and as right wing conservatism. and as we, i think quite quickly identify died in parts of bangladesh . a right wing bangladesh. a right wing conservatism is not necessarily the problem there. you could argue more argue that maybe more fundamentalist interpretations of and therefore , that

of islam are and therefore, that could well be seen as the real problem, but rather inconvenient truth for a lot of people. vaiews@gbnews.com. keep those views coming in. as i mentioned a little earlier on, on tuesdays at eight cars ultra low emission zone expanded to zone is being expanded to greater london which could see people coughing up £12.50 a day for vehicles which do not meet certain emission standards . gb certain emission standards. gb news will be bringing you all of the latest as we do hit the streets bromley. will be streets of bromley. i will be doing whole show from sunny doing a whole show from sunny bromley. at least i hope it's sunny tuesday we're to sunny on tuesday we're going to be to variety of be talking to a variety of different and again, you different people. and again, you know, said it before, i'll know, i've said it before, i'll say the ulez is say it again, the ulez thing is happening you it or happening whether you like it or not. in a place near you. at some point. and if this goes rather them, it is rather well for them, then it is definitely going to be happening everywhere the country. everywhere across the country. one is calling for one labour mp is calling for expand access to the scrappage funds so the commuter belt residents could replace their cars. the scrappage fund is an absolute disgrace. currently eligible londoners can get up to

two grand for scrapping a car to swap to a ulez compliant one, so i don't know how much your car is worth, but for me personally, when my car is not compliant to ulez so i would take a hit of about a third. so let's say my car's , i don't know, probably car's, i don't know, probably probably six grand car's, i don't know, probably pr

vehicle on the 21st of august. it was expanded to greater london, but the labour mp for slough is calling on the government to extend the scrappage scheme to his constituents who are bordering the ulez zone. as he says , the ulez zone. as he says, commuters will be affected in terms of the london mayor he's looking to tackle the toxic air pollution. >> so i understand completely where he is coming from, how even where he is coming from, how ever. the only way that we can make things better is if there is adequate support we cannot have a situation whereby we do not support individuals to make that transition. now it's up to the government, just as they have provided support for places like birmingham where there was about a £40 million scrappage scheme , like similar schemes in scheme, like similar schemes in bristol, in bradford and elsewhere. so what we are asking for is that the home counties, including places like slough in berkshire , they deserve adequate berkshire, they deserve adequate support and it's not enough for the government just to lumber it all on to the london mayor. they

should stop playing politics and actually support all of our residents to make this transition . transition. >> clean air zones have also been implemented in birmingham, bristol, portsmouth , bradford bristol, portsmouth, bradford and sheffield, which have all received funding from the government. london has not received any funding which the mayor of london has called for them to despite the them to do, despite the scrappage scheme being in place. sole traders say financially it's not enough and more needs to be done, says smith's husband, is a self—employed plasterer . they have two plasterer. they have two vehicles. both are non—compliant with ulez and live in south london's bromley. >> it's scandalous and i feel i'm upset today. >> usually i'm angry because this is just wrong what's happening and then we have a government who stays silent and then we have labour who can't decide what day of the week it is. so when's he going to get involved? >> we're now at the 11th hour, but this could still be postponed for people if we really have to go down this route to allow them to do it in

a much more fairer system. it's only hurting the people. it always hurts the vulnerable and the people that can least afford it. >> david in orpington runs his own fence company and is unsure how he will go forward. so i bought my van two years ago for £4,500 and to get a baseline replacement, not one that's going to be even suitable for the job is going to cost me £24,000, including vat . £24,000, including vat. >> i have to scrap your vehicle before they give you the payment. now if i scrap my vehicle and provide tfl with a certificate of destruction, how am i going to work with no van? because they're then going to wait to pay me. but then i've got to wait and then i've got to find a new van. it's like you're talking two months before you can even get a vehicle . can even get a vehicle. >> air quality is regarded by many as a political game that is now playing out with people's livelihoods and health at the heart of it. lisa hartel gb news, london.

government's failure to stop the boats and is it putting our safety at risk? second, should we pay climate reparations to developing countries? remember when nicola sturgeon promised £5 million for climate reparations while humza yousaf has upped the ante and pledged £24 million? this despite the scottish government's £1 billion financial black hole . makes financial black hole. makes sense of that. then sadiq khan has of course doubled down on his claim that anti ulez outrage has been stoked up by covid deniers and conspiracy theorists . this after the government was advised that they would not be able to block the expansion . it able to block the expansion. it got me thinking does the mayor have ever so slightly too much power or do you think the more devolution, the better? and lastly, should the older generation be taxed more ? the generation be taxed more? the ifs claimed baby boomers ifs has claimed baby boomers wealth is being undertaxed . but wealth is being undertaxed. but believe it or not. what do you think? let me know. i'll introduce my panel in just one moment. but first, let's get the latest news with aaron
