debilitating for airlines, particularly when crew will be going out of hours and what we will probably see later on today is that people will be expecting to get onto planes heavily delayed and then told we're really sorry, but legally we are unable to fly this with the crew we have. so almost certainly huge knock ons later today , if huge knock ons later today, if not into tomorrow . not into tomorrow. >> ministers are being accused of disregarding safety concerns on the bibby stockholm pm, the fire brigades union has sent a pre—action protocol letter to the home secretary raising the possibility of legal action. the union has previously described the barge as a potential death trap . suella braverman, who trap. suella braverman, who insists the vessel is safe, has until thursday to reply to the legal letter. meanwhile the home office is reportedly considered eyeing the use of electronic tags to monitor to monitor asylum seekers who arrive in the country illegally. the times says officials have been asked

presented as a new, exciting policy when it's something we should have been doing all along i >> -- >>a m >> a number of people have been injured after a cruise ship broke free from its moorings dunng broke free from its moorings during a storm. in spain, passengers on board the p&o cruises britannia were treated by medical staff after it collided with a petrol tanker in palma in majorca . p&o says the palma in majorca. p&o says the ship will stay in the port to be checked for technical issues, but there was no structural damage to the vessel . but there was no structural damage to the vessel. spain's labour minister has denounced systemic male chauvinism in the country after the national football chief luis rubiales kissed henry hermoso on the lips. kissed henry hermoso on the ups.the kissed henry hermoso on the lips. the comment comes ahead of urgent talks by the royal spanish football federation. rubiales is still refusing to resign after kissing the player on the lips at the women's world cup final, saying it was consensual, which she denies . consensual, which she denies. and football's governing body, fifa , announced last week fifa, announced last week rubiales will be suspended for

. earlier this year, home office figures suggested thousands of albanian seekers had albanian asylum seekers had absconded from hotels as well. i'm joined now by our deputy political editor tom harwood . political editor tom harwood. tom, thank you very much. where is this idea come from and why haven't we used it before ? haven't we used it before? >> well, fundamentally, is >> well, fundamentally, there is a placed on the a new obligation placed on the home under the terms home secretary under the terms of the illegal migration act. now that act means that when an individual travels across the channel illegally in a small boat, there is a legal duty placed upon the home secretary to detain them while they are processed. and in the vast, vast majority of cases rather than several exceptions, they will then be deport under the terms of the act. however, there are several problems with this . several problems with this. number one, we have very, very few detention spaces in this country. we have very few even normal accommodation spaces. if we've been seeing these trials and tribulations with hotels, barges, airfields, all the rest of it, but specifically detention centres , there are

detention centres, there are three that are supposed to be reopening . those reopenings have reopening. those reopenings have been delayed now for months on end, not likely to be open until next summer. but also the numbers coming in are still very high. yes, lower than last year at this time. last year, we saw about 25,000 had arrived year to date . and this year, year to date. and this year, year to date, it's been 19,000. so 6000 lower than last year. but still a big, big number. and more than we have provisioned to deal with. so now we're getting these ideas spinning out of the home office. not officially, of course. these are leaks and reports, although not denied by the home office , that they're the home office, that they're looking other ways to sort of looking at other ways to sort of keep track of these of these asylum seekers in lieu of detention . detention. >> yeah, i've got a feeling now that this is just to going enrage the human rights brigade again, possibly again, saying you can't possibly put tag on somebody put an ankle tag on somebody who's come across the who's just come across the country. >> precisely what it's >> that is precisely what it's done already heard some done. we've already heard some musings from human rights lawyers and groups and other

individuals involved in that sector are saying that this would be breaking, for example, the liberties placed upon people in this country. indeed, one of the other suggestions which is that benefits might be contingent upon registering or regularly signing in to some home office service. the idea that those benefits could be contingent on asylum seekers doing something is also legally dubious and no doubt will face challenge . challenge. >> is it really? is it really so? it is currently then legally dubious to say that somebody who illegally enters your country may right then have to wear a tag so we know where they are now and if they get benefits, they might have to do something for those benefits. >> yes , there are legal >> yes, there are legal obugafions >> yes, there are legal obligations placed on the government to stop people being destitute in the country. and so if there is the government, therefore placing saying that

you have to turn up somewhere or register somewhere or do something and that's it really isn't this money just turn up and say hello. >> right ? >> right? >> right? >> and but if they choose to not do that, then the government is technically making them destitute. lots of destitute. there are lots of different legal arguments. no doubt itself will doubt the government itself will have a case. and again, i stress these not confirmed plans, these are not confirmed plans, but the government said it but the government has said it would nothing off would take nothing off the table. can see under table. but you can see how under the human rights the terms of the human rights act, how now under many different threats of judicial review and what lawyers may bnng review and what lawyers may bring forward against the government, the government would, of course, have its own arguments. but it's easy to see how, there have been how, just as there have been these with these legal arguments with accommodation , just as been accommodation, just as been these legal arguments with people rwanda , people on planes with rwanda, with everything that the government tries do in this government tries to do in this area, mired very often area, it gets mired very often in the courts. >> yeah , no, fascinating. it >> yeah, no, fascinating. it will be really interesting to see one plays out see how this one plays out because, know, because, you know, the electronic want know because, you know, the e|little1ic want know because, you know, the e|little bit want know because, you know, the e|little bit more want know because, you know, the e|little bit more about know because, you know, the e|little bit more about them,w a little bit more about them, which is why i'm going to talk with guest about with my next guest about the kind about they

kind of procedure about how they work on. work and everything. but go on. >> other about the >> the other thing about the electronic yeah and this >> the other thing about the elprobably yeah and this >> the other thing about the elprobably fundamentalhis is probably a fundamental problem entire problem with the entire situation is that already this yean situation is that already this year, 19,000 people have arrived by small boat. we haven't got enough electronic tags is what you're me. in you're going to tell me. in total, country has 25,000 total, this country has 25,000 electronic in total. so if electronic tags in total. so if we expect a similar number of arrivals as last year, that's 45,000, we'd need twice as many tags as there are in existence already. but in reality, three times many because the tags times as many because the tags that are existence already that are in existence already are mostly on criminals. >> okay, but apart from that, it's a great idea. tom, thank you very much. tom harwood, our deputy political editor. yeah. all right. i mean , that's kind all right. i mean, that's kind of put the willies up that one a bit, hasn't it? but i'm joined now by security and intelligence expert university expert from the university of buckingham, anthony glees. buckingham, sir anthony glees. sir great to have sir anthony, great to have you on the show. and what we're going it's right going to do, if it's all right with you, is we're going to pivot halfway through our chat and chat and have a little chat about what's our what's going on with our aerospace because aerospace at the moment, because that potentially , that is actually potentially, potentially interesting and potentially very interesting and got to as

got a little while to go as well. i start with well. but i will start you with the uncle. air tags or bracelets well. but i will start you with th well, they do work in some cases. i mean, there's been a lot of research done into this and where sex offenders, for example , are tagged, there is example, are tagged, there is evidence to suggest that it reduces the incidence of sex offences. but in other areas, burglars , that kind of thing. burglars, that kind of thing. no, there is no evidence that it has any impact at all. this is a very serious matter because the delivery of security is a core duty of government in fact, it's probably the only court duty of government, as margaret thatcher used to say. and we've got a home secretary who tosses off ideas left, right and centre, and none of them work. and not

only do they not work because of the lawyers and an and the objections , the objections that objections, the objections that actually could quite import because we are a lawful democracy. but they don't work for technical reasons . so you for technical reasons. so you can tag somebody , but that can tag somebody, but that doesn't mean you can track somebody. they're simply not enough people in the probation service who would be doing this, who could actually track people . so if patrick, you you you want to identify the people who are coming to this country in a way in which the government argues is illegal and the government is charged with controlling our borders or tagging threatened to fly them off to rwanda , putting them on off to rwanda, putting them on the bibby stockholm . that is the bibby stockholm. that is simply not going to work. and i think british people are kind of fed up with always being given these things that don't work well. >> i think there's a combination of things that i think people

are fed up with. i think they're fed up with ideas, not actually being executed for a variety of different reasons that potentially could have been quite like, is this quite avoidable. like, is this going massively held in going to be massively held up in the there the courts or is there legionella barge ? so legionella on that barge? so i think people are worried about that. i think people are that. i do also think people are becoming increasingly annoyed at maybe an excessive rush to law. i know that we are in a democracy. i know that, you know, i would always want my human was human rights protected if i was ever situation . but do ever in that situation. but i do think there might be some question marks to had about question marks to be had about the large industry that the quite large industry that does be protecting does appear to be protecting people who've come this people who've come to this country but you people who've come to this countsaying but you people who've come to this countsaying that but you people who've come to this countsaying that we but you people who've come to this countsaying that we could you people who've come to this countsaying that we could tank people who've come to this countsajbut that we could tank people who've come to this countsajbut we ll we could tank people who've come to this countsajbut we couldn't ld tank people who've come to this countsajbut we couldn't track|k people, but we couldn't track them. just go into a bit them. can you just go into a bit more that for me? more detail on that for me? because really the point because that's really the point of this, it ? of this, isn't it? >> is really, because >> well, it is really, because as you can there are two ways that people who are tagged can be tracked either by a global positioning system , you know, positioning system, you know, car satnav system or by a radio link up between the tag and a

particular person following the tag. but at the end of the day, we heard from tom harwood. then they actually not enough tags . they actually not enough tags. we meant to have, i think, 25,000 tags by 2025, yet 90,000 people came into the uk and we've got a backlog backlog of about 180,000 people for whom we don't know anything about. so you can't look at these people. and by the way, there was, of course, legionella on the bibby , stockholm. so again , a , stockholm. so again, a technical reason, not a legal reason. no, it's a technical reason. no, it's a technical reason. and it you know, we don't want to do that now, one way that you could deal with this problem is by giving every migrant who we believe is adult a social security number, a national health number, and tell them to work because if they work and were earning money, you could then track them . and i could then track them. and i think i think i think that

whilst that whilst that will annoy a lot of people and it doesn't feel right to me, it doesn't feel right to me, it doesn't feel right to me, it doesn't feel right to me personally that you should be able to come to a country illegally and then essentially that country capitulates in the face of it. >> but i am looking now the >> but i am looking now at the sheer volume of this and the battle upon battle upon battle sheer volume of this and the batt|ouroon battle upon battle sheer volume of this and the batt|our government)on battle sheer volume of this and the batt|our government is] battle sheer volume of this and the batt|our government is having to that our government is having to try to do anything, frankly . and try to do anything, frankly. and i just whether how long i just wonder whether how long it is before we genuinely have some kind of amnesty for people who've come over here. but that is a question for later time. is a question for a later time. i going to do what i said i i am going to do what i said i was going to do now and i'm going you'll going to pivot with you. you'll be in a tick. but i be back with us in a tick. but i just want tell our viewers just want to tell our viewers what much an ongoing what is very much an ongoing situation involving our air traffic . so been situation involving our air trfailure . so been situation involving our air trfailure and . so been situation involving our air trfailure and it'so been situation involving our air trfailure and it's groundedieen a failure and it's grounded flights. it's leaving holidaymakers stranded. it's facing delays on one of the busiest travel days of the year. but engineers are working to identify and fix what they are calling at this stage a technical fault. but what what or who could be behind this? if

you have a look at it, there are a couple of elements of this which for make this which for me make this particularly interesting . okay. particularly interesting. okay. and just going to read and i'm just going to read them out so it's out to you right now. so it's the of it. of course, the timing of it. of course, bank monday during which bank holiday monday during which of loads and loads of course, loads and loads and loads trying to loads of people are trying to travel fine. apparently it's targeted planning targeted the flight planning system . and that is clever system. and that is clever because it doesn't lives at because it doesn't put lives at risk. so that looks as though that be targeted thing. that could be a targeted thing. and it has all the and apparently it has all the hallmarks similar hallmarks of a very similar attack that took place in the us attack that took place in the us a few months ago. so we're getting bang bang for our buck from this guy today. but yes, i'm going to reintroduce sir anthony this now anthony glees on this now because you are, of course, also a security and intelligence expert. what do of this expert. what do you make of this incident going on incident that's been going on with control and with air traffic control and with air traffic control and with then, have with that, then, does it have any hallmarks kind any hallmarks of some kind of attack, ? attack, do you think? >> well, i think it does . of >> well, i think it does. of course, it's early days and people like me, they express a view and it turns out to be wrong. and then people at home say, oh, stupid old boffin doesn't know what he's on about, but no, this is a very

significant day in the british diary bank holiday monday, the end of the summer holidays. this is a fault. and although we're told it's a technical fault, we're also told the people in the engineers in charge of it don't know where it is. in other words, it would be easy to say this was a technical fault and disguise the fact that actually we're being hacked . and is it we're being hacked. and is it possible that there is hacking going on? we've seen the massive data breach , again, a national data breach, again, a national security data breach relating to the police service of northern ireland is absolutely outrageous. we've seen massive data breach from the met and now just a few days later this is what appears to be a massive hack into to our critical national infrastructure. i mean , people have got to be able to come back to the uk. and as you say, patrick correctly, lives aren't at risk. but huge delays.

now, look at the international situation . who could be doing situation. who could be doing this ? there's a very obvious this? there's a very obvious candidate here. britain is known throughout europe and throughout the world for standing storm behind ukraine, perhaps more than any other country in europe, but certainly as much as any other country in europe. putin has been given one. bash after another. and the latest news from ukraine is that slowly and surely zelensky's forces are driving the russians back in the south of ukraine, we've laughed at the prigozhin story. i've laughed at the prigozhin story. the mafia bosses killing each other, scoring points off each other, scoring points off each other in the most brutal possible way . could it be that possible way. could it be that putin and his military intelligence people are flexing

their muscles and saying to us, you know, you better be careful what you say about us, because we can still . we can still. >> do you think do you think , >> do you think do you think, sir anthony, that actually this is of much is part of a much wider concerted attempt? mentioned concerted attempt? you mentioned a couple there, and a couple of things there, and i couldn't but wonder about couldn't help but wonder about what's on the what's been going on with the police in northern ireland. i think something think there's something else today , right, saying today actually, right, in saying about police data about some more police data breaches we've had breaches as well. then we've had this airport stuff going on. do you do you wonder whether or not this is part of a wider concerted hack? and if it is, will we ever actually know about it ? it? >> well, the second part of the question is , is key in a way, question is, is key in a way, will we ever know about it? we might not know about it as far as the first question is concerned. i mean, what people like me do, we follow the news. we are able to communicate particularly via twitter, with people who have the technical expertise that i don't pretend to have. and i asked a leading figure just a few minutes ago, did he think this was a hack or

did he think this was a hack or did he think it was a technical fault? and he said, well, i think it's a technical fault, but frankly, we don't know. it's early days . so if you don't know early days. so if you don't know something , you can't be sure something, you can't be sure that it isn't. you take these things together. we have made ourselves very vulnerable in this country by relying so heavily on the internet. you know, we thought it was going to be this great tim berners—lee libre , great everybody and libre, great everybody and everybody wouldn't have to go to shops any longer. you put all your out of there. your personal data out of there. we're it's costing billions we're it's costing us billions of in fraud, but we also of pounds in fraud, but we also lay ourselves open to china, to russia , indeed, the chinese, russia, indeed, the chinese, they built a lot of our critical national infrastructure here. so we need to be very careful here. and the british people do want to have answers to this. we want to have answers to this. we want to be kept safe. patrick good stuff, sir. >> anthony thank you very, very much. glees, of course, much. anthony glees, of course, who and who is a security and intelligence expert, watching us through a couple of stories. firstly, it's not looking great for who thinks that we

for anybody who thinks that we should tagging , people should be ankle tagging, people who've come across who've just come across the channel apparently we haven't got probably got enough tags and it probably wouldn't help to track them anyway. and of anyway. so there's that. and of course there's the old human rights got rights brigade who've got involved. thinks involved. secondly he thinks in his what is going on his view that what is going on with airspace at moment his view that what is going on with welliirspace at moment his view that what is going on with well be 3ace at moment his view that what is going on with well be ane at moment his view that what is going on with well be an attack moment his view that what is going on with well be an attack and»ment his view that what is going on with well be an attack and not tl may well be an attack and not simply a technical fault, but more on both of those stories on our gbnews.com the our website. gbnews.com the fastest growing news fastest growing national news site country. got fastest growing national news sitethe country. got fastest growing national news sitethe bestountry. got fastest growing national news sitethe best analysis, got fastest growing national news sitethe best analysis, big)t all the best analysis, big opinion all latest opinion and all of the latest breaking news. but forces breaking news. but police forces have investigate have been told to investigate every single theft in a crackdown on low level crime. suella braverman has dismissed claims that they don't have enough resources to do the job. so she's certainly up for the fight. but what's been stopping them so then? i'm patrick them so far then? i'm patrick christys

isabel monday to thursdays from . six till 930 . . six till 930. >> welcome back. it is 326. you're watching patrick christys on gb news and in a few minutes i will tell you why the king is set to put dozens of people out of work and find out why councils across the country could go bust in the next couple of but first, suella of years. but first, suella braverman has rejected claims that police don't have the that the police don't have the resources to carry out her plans for crime crackdown. the for a new crime crackdown. the home secretary says the officers must follow all reasonable lines of inquiry they receive of inquiry when they receive reports crimes such phone reports of crimes such as phone theft , shoplifting and reports of crimes such as phone theft, shoplifting and criminal damage. these are being classed as level crimes, but they're as low level crimes, but they're not low level. if they affect you, they? brafman you, are they? and brafman has pointed out that there's a record of officers record number of officers working the front line. is

working on the front line. is that 100% true, though ? let's that 100% true, though? let's cross to westminster and speak to our political editor, christopher hope. christopher, thank you much. great thank you very much. great to have show. and have you on the show. and a fabulous as well, fabulous setting for it as well, i and okay, so suella i must say. and okay, so suella braverman saying that we do braverman is saying that we do have police numbers to have the police numbers to investigate every single quotes and quotes. low level crime . and quotes. low level crime. >> yes, she is . she's saying no >> yes, she is. she's saying no crime to trivial. the government says they've given 20,000 more police officers post to the 43 forces in england and wales. that takes us back to pre austerity levels back in over a decade ago, a few thousand more than that. but the idea is , is than that. but the idea is, is that they these police officers should help investigate even the smallest crimes. and you rightly say, patrick, that any crime is awful for any any victim. however, however scene trivial as it might seem to policy makers. so she's saying if there's a burglary or if there's cctv footage or doorbell footage of a crime, then the police must

look into it. they can't just disregard that. and i think that's the point . she recognises that's the point. she recognises the issue of trust in policing, and if you're going through the misery of being a victim of crime and the police don't appear that interested, then it can quite damaging. i think can be quite damaging. i think for police. there's for trust in police. there's an example in greater manchester where they increased, they they pledged to look at every single trivial crimes, small crime, burglaries, muggings, that kind of thing, which are very serious for people involved. and they had 44% increase charging had a 44% increase in charging and she wants to see similar across the board . across the board. >> yeah, exactly. i just >> oh, yeah, exactly. i just wonder whether or not there's a slight issue with with the language and the way that it's being used here, because obviously trying put obviously she's trying to put a bit rocket police bit of a rocket up. police forces back size , isn't she? and forces back size, isn't she? and she wants them out and do forces back size, isn't she? and siandants them out and do forces back size, isn't she? and stand iils them out and do forces back size, isn't she? and stand i think m out and do forces back size, isn't she? and stand i think she's out and do forces back size, isn't she? and stand i think she's coming nd do forces back size, isn't she? and stand i think she's coming at do it and i think she's coming at it and i think she's coming at it from point it rightly so from the point that the public want to see crime tackled. they to feel crime tackled. they want to feel protected hear protected and they hear some horror stories. don't they, about postcodes about certain postcodes in the uk where a burglary hasn't been solved for ten or solved for ten years or whatever. stories get whatever. those stories get wheeled time to time ,

wheeled out from time to time, don't they? the insinuate don't they? but the insinuate for me here is that she's saying that there's no reason why the police can't currently be doing more. and that's a worry. i think, isn't it? >> yeah. i mean labour are correctly leaping on it, saying, well, isn't this what the police should be doing anyway? they should be doing anyway? they should be doing anyway? they should be looking into these crimes not disregarding crimes and not disregarding ones which be low level. which are seen to be low level. but there are wider, bigger issues. there's figures out in the guardian today of freedom of information request. they've dug out there from around 16 out of 43 showing that 1 in 8 43 forces showing that 1 in 8 specialist roles investigating rape have not been filled. and of course , the figures on rape of course, the figures on rape convictions are appallingly low . yeah a few hundred, i think , . yeah a few hundred, i think, resulting in actual convictions compared to tens of thousands of rapes reported to the police. >> no, indeed . and that is what >> no, indeed. and that is what they will say. they say, look, we're dealing with all of this really, really serious stuff and we haven't many resources as we haven't got many resources as we haven't got many resources as we would for it. but thank

make dozens of staff redundant, apparently because he's got too many people doing the same job. >> so the king is said to be planning to get rid of a number of middle managers at the royal household. you what household. you know what i'd really like to see him do? go to the next, but there we go. the nhs next, but there we go. it's his it's seen as part of his attempts to modernise the monarchy, streamline the monarchy. now by monarchy. i'm joined now by royal angela levin. royal biographer angela levin. angela, thank you very, very much. great to have you on the show as ever. okay. this is a good or bad thing ? good or a bad thing? >> well, i think it's a very interesting thing, actually. >> i mean , the sovereign grant >> i mean, the sovereign grant is £863 million that the government gives them for anything to do with royals. that means each of us have to pay £1.29. i personally think that that's not very much , but you that's not very much, but you know, add it all up. >> that's what it is. >> that's what it is. >> i think it's the result of a king marrying someone who doesn't come from royal stock . i doesn't come from royal stock. i know camilla. i wrote her biographer biography . and she's biographer biography. and she's not somebody who's very who's

very flash , who wants lots of very flash, who wants lots of stuff hanging around her. and she's used to running her own home. >> and she still does up to a certain extent. >> and i think it's just she feels that it's a waste. they don't need all those all those people. i mean, i'm sure charles has got used to it all his life. but this way, if you think there's a senior housekeeper, an executive housekeeper and juniors, which sounds to me like downton abbey , rather than downton abbey, rather than actually , you know, london in actually, you know, london in 2023 and think that that's perfectly okay. and if all the palaces are going to be slightly changed to be museums, several of them are, you don't need the staff there either . so it just staff there either. so it just depends how what they're given when they leave and if they can help find jobs for them or write a good comment so that they can be taken up. but but i think the thing that i find odd is that

king charles wants everyone to turn down the thermostat as well. >> so you don't use so much heat. >> and i mean, i can't that's something else . you know, you something else. you know, you can manage without three housekeepers doing similar jobs, but you can't manage in a very cold room, especially in our winters . no, i mean, we know winters. no, i mean, we know it's not not not really. >> like you said, i really do hope, though, that these people who've probably been loyal staff, for quite staff, hopefully for quite a penod staff, hopefully for quite a period of time, because that's the issue that would with period of time, because that's thewhich that would with period of time, because that's thewhich isiat would with period of time, because that's thewhich is that would with period of time, because that's thewhich is that if»uld with period of time, because that's thewhich is that if they're with it, which is that if they're middle every middle managers, there is every chance been around chance that they've been around for a few years they've for a few years and they've gradually way up to gradually worked their way up to middle management and it would be think, see be a shame, i think, to see those who've loyal those people who've been loyal servants but this could servants now go. but this could be good way of just be a very good way of just making himself that little bit more relatable to the public. i think, you know, we do live in a day and age now where everyone's very quick to jump on everybody else. everyone's to else. everyone's very quick to criticise sign of wealth criticise and any sign of wealth or success, whether or not you've actually earned it, is a big bone of contention . so maybe big bone of contention. so maybe he could be more relatable now

by getting rid of a load of staff and maybe making his own cup now again . cup of tea every now and again. >> they've been very relatable, actually , since the queen died. actually, since the queen died. the very you know, they talked to lots of people. they're all more relaxed and the king is much more relaxed to have his beloved wife by his side. and they can actually want to relate to the people more. i think king charles is very good at that . charles is very good at that. but a lot of people don't think he has. but what is very interesting , whenever i've been interesting, whenever i've been interesting, whenever i've been in one of the palaces or gone to interview or talk to any of the royals , the staff work royals, the staff work incredibly hard. it's not that they lounge about and often they have to go and look . if they're have to go and look. if they're going to another country , see going to another country, see what the how it should run, work out all sorts of things, timing and you know, they have to work very, very long hours. so it's not just everybody who's going. it's just possibly people who have have got very ordinary work

and they're not really needed and they're not really needed and they're not really needed and they can get very bored as well. i'm sure anybody who would take on a housekeeper from buckingham palace rather than somebody who they don't know what sort of absolutely has happened. >> no, i mean, absolutely. you would have thought that there would have thought that there would be no issue with people. where to work before where do you used to work before buckingham palace? okay all right. come clean right. you can come and clean my flat . you know, that would be flat. you know, that would be great, it? love great, wouldn't it? i'd love that. them great, wouldn't it? i'd love thatat them great, wouldn't it? i'd love that at house them great, wouldn't it? i'd love thatat house parties. them great, wouldn't it? i'd love thatat house parties. you them great, wouldn't it? i'd love thatat house parties. you know, out at house parties. you know, i've seen so—and—so cleans my flat. buckingham flat. she used to do buckingham palace. is. this palace. you know, this is. this is what's is it. and look, what's the what's latest on the what's the latest on the reconcile affiliation saga between william charles and potentially harry as well and andrew as well, in fact , let's andrew as well, in fact, let's touch on that one we've not spoken about andrew, you and i, for a little while. so andrew appears to be well appears to be appears to be well and back in the fold, and truly back in the fold, doesn't he ? doesn't he? >> well, i'm not sure . oh, i >> well, i'm not sure. oh, i mean, i think it's quite

difficult . he still has a dark difficult. he still has a dark cloud hanging over him because there's going to be more court things and other things going on. but what they are pleased aboutis on. but what they are pleased about is that he doesn't nag, he doesn't criticise the royal family as it is now or as it was. he keeps he doesn't complain very vocally and he has disappeared for a lot of all the occasions that he hasn't been wanted . so in a way to have him wanted. so in a way to have him as a sort of just now and then to give him a lift in a car or take him to church or something like that , i think that's okay. like that, i think that's okay. but he will not have anything to do with the royal family he will not represent the royal family at all. as for harry, it's a disaster zone. it is just terrible. he's coming over on the seventh. okay. and angela, can i just cut into you very , can i just cut into you very, very quickly? >> please stay there for me.

i'll come back to you. i've just got a little bit of breaking news. so some breaking news news. so some big breaking news now in the last few minutes. the major air major problem affecting uk air traffic been traffic control today has been resolved . and excuse me, resolved. and excuse me, a statement from national air traffic services said , we have traffic services said, we have identified and remedy the technical issue affecting our flight planning system this morning. we are now working closely with airlines and airports to manage the flights affected as efficiently as possible. our engineers will be carefully monitoring the system's performance . s as we system's performance. s as we return to normal operations . so return to normal operations. so just to quickly recap then, the issue that was affecting our air traffic control system and our aerospace has now been resolved and they are saying that they are working to make sure they can clear the backlog. and it was a technical issue affecting our flight planning system. so apparently has now been apparently that has now been sorted. angela i believe i've still got you. thank you. don't worry, i won't get to comment on that. i won't get to comment that. i won't get you to comment on air traffic control unless

you trapped in you were abroad and trapped in an something like an airport or something like that. how toxic that. but i mean, how toxic is andrew the scenes, you andrew behind the scenes, do you think? be think? because it seems to be a bit in the court of public bit mixed in the court of public opinion. some of opinion. you've got some of those people who say, well, look, was never look, you know, he was never really anything look, you know, he was never really that anything look, you know, he was never really that and anything look, you know, he was never really that and the anything look, you know, he was never really that and the other.|g and this, that and the other. and those who say and then those people who say you his face you should never show his face again. so he appears to be occupying house. occupying a halfway house. >> yes, i think so. it's very difficult, isn't it? i mean, he won't leave his house on that . won't leave his house on that. he should do i mean , his wife is he should do i mean, his wife is there after a nasty opera session for cancer. but he's obviously going to try and stay there and not actually leave . there and not actually leave. king charles wants to put him in the house, the cottage that harry and meghan had, but he doesn't want something so small with five bedrooms. you know, it's an enormous house and he wants to stay there. so that's not very good . charles and not very good. charles and andrew have never got on well together . very different people

together. very different people and. and they prince charles always thought that his parents preferred andrew to him because he was much more macho , much he was much more macho, much more manly, and charles liked to talk to flowers and gardens and, you know, heavy books. and so and there was a row with him about meghan . he didn't think about meghan. he didn't think she was appropriate . so they're she was appropriate. so they're not close . but i think they're not close. but i think they're being just dignified . and they being just dignified. and they have invited fergie to do special occasions now because they feel that you've got to move on. they don't bear grudges. camilla in particular, does not bear a grudge. that's how she's been able to manage harry. >> okay. interesting stuff , >> okay. interesting stuff, right? angela, thank you very , right? angela, thank you very, very much. always a delight. we'll talk to you again very soon as his royal biographer, angela levin, now more 20 angela levin, now more than 20 engush angela levin, now more than 20 english could run out english councils could run out of money in the next couple of years . and you don't want to

years. and you don't want to miss this. okay find out what happened next is an american police officer went up against some climate activists . i some climate activists. i promise you , you it's the most promise you, you it's the most american law enforcement clip. every anywhere. you will love it. you will love it. patrick christys gb news business news

weeknights from . six weeknights from. six >> okay . all right. welcome >> okay. all right. welcome back, everybody. patrick christys here it is, 3:46. and you're watching me on gb news in

just a few minutes, i will show you how american cops deal with climate activists. and believe me , they're a bit tougher than me, they're a bit tougher than our police over here. and at 4:00, i will look at claims from people traffickers that it is them and not our government who control the uk's borders. that will be video that i suspect will be a video that i suspect will be a video that i suspect will your blood boil. but will make your blood boil. but a leading government group leading local government group has warned that at least 26 councils are facing bankruptcy in the next two years. the warning follows a string of collapses in local government finances, with councils in slough , croydon, thurrock and slough, croydon, thurrock and woking . having all suffered woking. having all suffered massive budget deficits. the crisis is being driven by a fall in cash reserves. usually held over to plug gaps in budgets at councils and they also say they're battling the cost of living pressures. i'm not sure whether or not there's a little bit to though, and has bit more to this though, and has talked joe talked to me about this is joe ventura from taxpayers ventura from the taxpayers alliance. thank very, alliance. joe, thank you very, very . now, forgive me, but very much. now, forgive me, but is there a school of thought that says that some local councils have been spending

taxpayers money in incredibly stupid and expensive ways and now they're having to file for bankruptcy ? bankruptcy? >> well, thank you for having me on, patrick. >> that is certainly how it seems and that is what it seems from the research that we conduct at the taxpayers alliance frequently we see councils wasting money left, right and centre. >> whether that's on vanity projects , whether that's on huge projects, whether that's on huge salaries and pay packets for local chief executives and that money just simply isn't realised . invaluable efforts for local taxpayers. and i think you find that when you speak to local taxpayers to . taxpayers to. >> yeah. so we've had numerous different issues, haven't we? some example, some councils, for example, spending of of spending tens of millions of pounds building developments pounds on building developments that went pop . we've that basically went pop. we've also local councils as also had some local councils as well, roads well, renaming roads like blackboy lane and getting involved of that involved with all of that needless stuff then needless stuff and then reversing it the next day, etcetera, etcetera. so there has been a bit of wastage going on which at which councils are we looking at here be affected? here that could be affected? >> appears to be. there >> well, it appears to be. there are a number of councils have

come forward this i'm come forward in this survey. i'm not particularly which not sure particularly which ones, look to be said ones, but they look to be said to be the country. and to be around the country. and i think really is think what we find really is that problems that that these problems that councils are facing aren't really designated to particular areas of the country. it seems to be local authorities across the country that are facing these issues. and i think what that is these problems that says is these problems really are widespread and it's something we see time time something we see time and time again the taxpayers again here at the taxpayers alliance ultimately , alliance and ultimately, taxpayers are the ones that are going footing the if taxpayers are the ones that are goirlook footing the if taxpayers are the ones that are goirlook what'sing the if taxpayers are the ones that are goirlook what's happened if taxpayers are the ones that are goirlook what's happened inif you look what's happened in croydon for example, croydon, for example, this is a council that gave a former chief executive i believe, a £600,000 exit payment before going bankrupt yet again. and local taxpayers there have had to foot the bill for a 15% council tax rise. it's absolutely absurd . rise. it's absolutely absurd. and what we find is that local taxpayers are then the ones held accountable failures . accountable for these failures. >> mean, you talk about >> yeah, i mean, you talk about people account people being held to account there. labour run there. i mean, so labour run slough quote . slough revealed a quote. catastrophic £100 million black hole in its budget in 2021, labour controlled croydon announced its third bankruptcy

in two years. they're not all laboun in two years. they're not all labour, by the way, but those are two examples. it's third bankruptcy in two years. i mean, if anyone was running a business like this or indeed their own lives , then they'd be out of lives, then they'd be out of a job or a house very quickly. how do these people get anywhere near government ? near government? >> well, this is the thing. it's completely unfair because , you completely unfair because, you know, as i said, ultimately it's local taxpayers and indeed taxpayers across the country then who have to the bill. then who have to foot the bill. whether absurd whether that's through absurd council tax rates or intervention from central government. but time and time again, we're seeing these failures and we're seeing failures and we're not seeing lessons mean , lessons being learned. i mean, we a every year of we conduct a list every year of the top paid chief executive and bosses across councils. and what we found was that in our last survey, the number of figures on on over a on over £100,000 of total remuneration actually increased during the pandemic at a time when, of course we all knew we'd have to tighten our belts. and you just think how on earth sort of

earth was that sort of irresponsibility ? irresponsibility? >> and as well, you >> well, yeah. and as well, you know, looking at woking . know, i'm looking at woking. they've had what's been called here a disastrous property here is a disastrous property investment binge. i don't really want my local council to be investing disastrously in property i suppose, certainly not they're bingeing it, not if they're bingeing on it, but very much. but joe, thank you very much. joe from the joe adventure there from the taxpayers just taxpayers alliance. yeah, just more really more examples really of bad local and you local government. and then you wonder rake all wonder why they try and rake all the with variety the money back with a variety of different you? different schemes, don't you? but got enough time now but i have got enough time now to show you what i think is a brilliant video from united brilliant video from the united states. if you are sick states. anyway if you are sick and tired of british police officers letting just stop oil protesters blockade roads, disrupt people's lives , then disrupt people's lives, then just check out how one american cop dealt with a load of eco activists. for our radio listeners, i'll talk you through this in a sec, but i want our tv and online viewers to just bathe in the full majesty of this .

in the full majesty of this. you get that? >> yeah . daryl, you better move. >> yeah. daryl, you better move. you're going to go back watching . get down, down, get it out of the ground. all of you on the ground. now. get on the ground . ground. now. get on the ground. get on the ground . don't move . get on the ground. don't move. he has no weapons at all. we're in very gentle protesters . in very gentle protesters. >> this is like god sent this quy- >> this is like god sent this guy. this guy is lining up , guy. this guy is lining up, though. so he sees the fact that

the blockaded the road. right. and he's there and his massive truck. and you think , what's he truck. and you think, what's he going do? he's to stop. going to do? he's going to stop. and he's sucking now, isn't he? going to do? he's going to stop. an(wallop.|cking now, isn't he? going to do? he's going to stop. an(wallop.|ckingthat, isn't he? going to do? he's going to stop. an(wallop.|ckingthat straighte? no wallop. have that straight through . doesn't even through the signs. doesn't even check see there's anyone check to see if there's anyone lying back of it. lying down at the back of it. and oh, maybe and you think, oh, maybe he'll just his no. just carry on with his day. no. what's he doing? coming back just carry on with his day. no. wbit's he doing? coming back just carry on with his day. no. wbit more.1oing? coming back just carry on with his day. no. wbit more.1oi he’ coming back just carry on with his day. no. wbit more.1oi he’ comingback: a bit more. is he coming back for little bit more? fine. and for a little bit more? fine. and then they start to think, oh, no, someone's getting really. and about is about this and it is about it is about this time you think surely he's time when you think surely he's not going to do what all american officers do, american police officers do, which get your gut. which is just get your gut. there he's got the gun there it is. he's got the gun out, come out, get on out, the guns come out, get on the ground and then it's about this they all start this moment that they all start screaming activist. screaming where eco activist. we're activists and he just we're eco activists and he just continues do isn't he? continues to do it isn't he? there go . i mean, good grief. there we go. i mean, good grief. they certainly do go about things a little bit differently in america. don't no in america. don't they? no messing they're messing around there. they're just get that road just trying to get that road clear. what the kind of clear. i wonder what the kind of reaction would to police reaction would be to our police officers something similar officers doing something similar here. yeah , grief here. over here. but yeah, grief obviously has caused a lot of criticism with people saying that those eco protesters were

definitely not armed and they were a bit heavy handed, which i think is a case think there possibly is a case for, there for, actually. but anyway, there we right so there's chaos, we go. right so there's chaos, chaos in britain's airports after a failure at uk air traffic control. we were wondering whether or not it was an attack , whether or not it was an attack, whether or not it was an attack, whether or not it was a hack, whether or not it was a technical flaw. apparently it a hack, whether or not it was a tech now. flaw. apparently it a hack, whether or not it was a tech now been. apparently it a hack, whether or not it was a technow been. appa butly it has now been fixed, but of course, a massive course, there's a massive backlog taking place. so we'll have on that . and have the latest on that. and people are taunting people smugglers are taunting rishi sunak from across the channel. they're boasting that they control of our they are in control of our borders and they've even got some video to accompany for some nice video to accompany for it, will be playing to it, which we will be playing to you. lucky now, i'm you. you lucky people. now, i'm patrick is gb patrick christys. this is gb news. we are britain's news channel. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. on. gb news. >> hello there i'm greg dewhurst and welcome to your latest gb news weather forecast. well over the next few days we've got scattered showers , so there will scattered showers, so there will be some brighter interludes at times and it will turn increasingly breezy,

into tomorrow. >> ministers are being accused of disregarding safety concerns on the bibby stockholm . on the bibby stockholm. >> the fire brigades union has sent a pre action protocol letter to the home secretary raising the possibility of legal action. the union has previously described the barge as a potential death trap. >> suella braverman, who insists the vessel is safe, has until thursday to reply to the legal letter. >> meanwhile , the home office is >> meanwhile, the home office is reportedly considering the use of electronic tags to monitor asylum seekers who arrive in the country illegally. >> the times says officials have been asked to find ways to prevent the thousands of people who arrive on small boats from absconding . meanwhile, the home absconding. meanwhile, the home secretary insists police have the resources to meet a government pledge to crack down on crime forces in england and wales are being told to follow all reasonable lines of enquiry when it comes to investigating burglary or theft. the new commitment is part of a crime week of policy announcements. >> labour has criticised it as a staggering admission of 13 years

of tory failure . the shadow of tory failure. the shadow employment rights minister , employment rights minister, justin madders, says it's taken too long to implement what's been happening for the last 13 years of a conservative government if crimes have not been investigated. >> is, afraid, >> but it is, i'm afraid, a reflection of what i hear from constituents and my own experience that some times the police just don't have the resources to investigate the crimes. in fact, 90% of crimes go unsolved and i think that it's a sad state of affairs that this is something that's been presented as a new, exciting policy when it's something we should have been doing all along i >> -- >> two man >> two man accused >> two man accused of a suspect, ammonia attack in gateshead have appeared in court. they're accused of murdering the 26 year old andy foster , who was sprayed old andy foster, who was sprayed with a substance after opening the front door of a home on the 20th of august. he later died in hospital. >> kenneth fawcett and john wandless were remanded in custody until their next court date , but a number of people date, but a number of people have been injured after a cruise

mean, it does appear to indicate that the human traffickers do believe that they are above our government, certainly not just our government, but the turkish government, the french government, the french government as well . government as well. >> this was a tiktok live stream from a migrant camp in northern france, where brazenly these people smuggling gangs were boasting of their business, where they were talking about piling hundred of people into several boats and where they were saying that this was something that was good food for people to do advertising really on these social media platforms. this is something that clearly has been going on for some time. this isn't an isolated incident of these people smuggling gangs, sort of advertising their business on tiktok . but this business on tiktok. but this particular live stream seemed to be particularly brazen. >> and one of the things that they as was they were saying as well was about actual boats about the actual boats themselves or the boats that were using are you can were using are great. you can inflate of air in just inflate them full of air in just ten then they're ten minutes and then they're over mean, this

over there. i mean, this lot really not care, do they? really do not care, do they? they are in no way, shape or form bothered about any of the authorities from turkey to france to britain. and i can't help but wonder whether or not they are just whether or not they are just whether or not they may be infiltrated. some of these governments, you look at it and you think, well, how can you operating so brazenly you be operating so brazenly without widespread corruption? >> well, they certainly boast i'm not sure have i'm not sure they have implemented it, infiltrated these governments, but they boast that the uk , french boast that we are the uk, french and turkish governments is a direct quote from one of their live streams. clearly this is boasting. clearly this is advertising that perhaps migrant equivalent or migrant trafficker equivalent or migrant trafficker equivalent of some sort of tele tele business channel sort of selling the experience, if you will. but this was caught clearly something that they believe is advancing their business interests and attracting more people. many of the people who travel across, of course , do have mobile phones course, do have mobile phones are on tiktok, are seeing this

sort of content, these this sort of material . and it just shows of material. and it just shows how they clearly think they're above the law. they are post ing with this digital footprint not being gone after clearly where they are based by the french authorities and advertising their evil craft. >> yeah, indeed. just one more with you actually , which is with you actually, which is a topic that we've covered a bit in the last hour. but i think i'll return to it, which is about or not should about whether or not we should be even put ankle tags be or could even put ankle tags on channel migrants to keep tabs on channel migrants to keep tabs on them, because we've had a variety of different situations where absconded and where people have absconded and we that it's difficult to we know that it's difficult to keep them. also keep tabs on them. there's also a limited amount of secure accommodation that we can use for people now. so you you kind of pulled a bit of cold water on the old tagging for migrants in the old tagging for migrants in the last hour. >> well, point is this is >> well, the point is this is contested . and so it's not as if contested. and so it's not as if there is a clear yes answer. there is a clear yes no answer. there arguments that human there are arguments that human rights lawyers , human rights rights lawyers, human rights groups and the like will make under the terms of the human

rights act, which, of course, became part of united kingdom law in the late 1990s. and what the government sort of is saying is on the table and what the government might try with regard to tags, with regard to conditional benefits and the like. these all stands ready , i like. these all stands ready, i suppose, to be contested by at advocacy groups, right? >> so they've already so basically the second that this government says, right, what we're going to do now, just to make that people who've make sure that people who've come country illegally come to this country illegally are not going to disappear into the british countryside or end up working for drug gangs or whatever we're to an whatever, we're going to put an ankle them , the same whatever, we're going to put an ankle tag them , the same whatever, we're going to put an ankle tag that 1em , the same whatever, we're going to put an ankle tag that we| , the same whatever, we're going to put an ankle tag that we would same whatever, we're going to put an ankle tag that we would samyon ankle tag that we would put on criminals the rights criminals. and the human rights groups already opposing this. >> well, clearly, they are organising to oppose this . they organising to oppose this. they would say that it would be wrong to treat someone as a criminal, as they've arrived seeking refuge. of course, the refuge. but of course, the reason why the home office is looking this is there is

looking to do this is there is a now a legal obligation under the terms of the illegal migration act on the home secretary to detain those who arrive by small boats as they're processed and then most, for the most part apart from several exceptions, be deported to a safe third country like rwanda . the big country like rwanda. the big problems there, number one, rwanda's not up and running. we won't see the final court case with that until the end of the year. with that until the end of the year . and similarly, we don't year. and similarly, we don't have agreements with many countries for returns . we've got countries for returns. we've got one with albania, of course , but one with albania, of course, but we don't have one with france. we with any eu we don't have one with any eu country . don't have one with country. we don't have one with some the most . the countries some of the most. the countries that have the most number of people coming across in these small so on the small boats. so that's on the one problem in terms one hand, a big problem in terms of can't send people off of they can't send people off under the terms of the illegal migration two, migration act, but number two, in terms detention, we don't in terms of detention, we don't have places . we have enough detention places. we don't detention don't have enough detention centres. are three that centres. there are three that are supposed opening this are supposed to be opening this summer. in summer. they've been delayed in the to be opened. now, the courts to be opened. now, next summer. and the question is

how do you keep track of everyone? one of the suggestions, clearly ankle tags , big , although clearly big, big problems as well. >> you were also saying that we don't ankle tags. don't have enough ankle tags. >> ankle tags. >> there are 25,000 ankle tags. but we just more but surely we can just make more ankle tags ? well, perhaps ankle tags? well, perhaps we could procure more could make more procure more again, that's delay again, that's what we've seen. the problems with government procurement it's procurement in the past. it's not an easy route. none of these are easy answers. none of these not an easy route. none of these are easy options. none of these not an easy route. none of these are easy options. and|e of these not an easy route. none of these are easy options. and clearlyase not an easy route. none of these are easy options. and clearly ,;e are easy options. and clearly, every step the way there are every step of the way there are groups that will try and get in the way of the government . there the way of the government. there are people who feel very passionately on both sides. we've with the bibby we've seen with the bibby stockholm that stockholm just just today that the fire brigades union, which of course is a political group in of itself, is trying to in and of itself, is trying to stop getting back on stop people getting back on board that boat. they've even said that one of the fire doors may not be used because the slope towards it is slightly too steep. i mean , and therefore, steep. i mean, and therefore, it's an unsafe vessel. >> i do i do really wonder. let me know. by the way, gbviews@gbnews.com is everybody just getting a bit sick of this

now? every single thing that is supposed to be planned falls through for a variety of different reasons. whether or not it was legionella or whether or not it's, you know, human rights groups really getting on board with it, whether it's not, it's the charities is it's some of the charities is telling all of these asylum seekers to lawyer up and then questionably paying for them to lawyer up and then we're seeing even little things like, oh, no, look, you possibly go on look, you can't possibly go on that barge because the slope towards doors too steep towards the fire doors too steep and now looking at you and now we're looking at you can't ankle them can't possibly ankle tag them because be against can't possibly ankle tag them bec human be against can't possibly ankle tag them bec human rights. be against can't possibly ankle tag them bec human rights. doe against can't possibly ankle tag them bec human rights. doe agthink the human rights. do you think it's there is by it's possible that there is by any a concert effort by any chance a concert effort by a small group of people who just want to see total open borders to try to make this happen? >> think are of >> i think there are a lot of people who are fundamentally implacably opposed to the idea that the uk would have the sort of controls on its border that this government wants to see. we've seen that clearly with leaks within the home office. why is that? >> do you think that's because? do that's because do you think that's because

people think people ideologically think that's there are certainly >> i think there are certainly a lot people who think that the lot of people who think that the united kingdom is not playing its part when comes to its part when it comes to international refugee settlement. they look at germany, million settlement. they look at germany under million settlement. they look at germany under angela million settlement. they look at germany under angela merkel. on refugees under angela merkel. they look at france . that does they look at france. that does take more refugees than the united kingdom. and they say, why isn't the uk more, why isn't the uk doing more, quite legitimately ? the quite legitimately? the government these government says, well, these were countries that chose democratically or otherwise to do what they did . there have do what they did. there have been problems in some these been problems in some of these countries result and countries is as a result and equally the united kingdom does do in terms of help in do a lot in terms of help in disaster areas. we were the second largest donor to migrant to refugee camps in the middle east. >> you know, this is the thing as well, isn't it? we are also a smaller country. so in terms of land mass , in terms of land land mass, in terms of land mass, we are we are geographically smaller than france. >> we are larger than most eu countries. one of the big problems, of course, is it's harder to build anything in the united kingdom than just about any country the face of any other country on the face of the it costs the the earth. and it costs the infrastructure to in this infrastructure to make in this country, about four times

country, costs about four times on the cost of on average the cost of infrastructure. we infrastructure. in france, we build about as homes build about half as many homes as france does every with as france does every year, with half population with the half the population with the same population . so there are same population. so there are obviously all of these strains that perhaps matter more in the uk because we are just so much worse at creating infrastructure because and we've seen it again when it comes to not just creating homes, but also when it comes to deploying barges or changing airfields or whatever it is with regard to migrants. we do have this culture in this country of some might describe it as nimbyism, as a rejectionism, as a vetocracy . rejectionism, as a vetocracy. and we've seen that when we try and build railways, we see that when we try build housing, when we try and build housing, we that when we and we see that when we try and build detention centres, build migrant detention centres, lots hurdles are thrown up in lots of hurdles are thrown up in the way that the the way and that makes the process slower. makes the process slower. that makes the process slower. that makes the process it? process tricky, isn't it? >> so? >> because then what's so? because solution >> because then what's so? bethis?�* solution >> because then what's so? bethis? because solution >> because then what's so? bethis? because can't)lution to this? because you can't really make a credible case for having less law and less legal protections . and of course, if protections. and of course, if that's what's holding everything up, then what's the solution?

>> i think very few people would say that the uk should take in hundreds of thousands of refugees every year, millions of refugees every year, millions of refugees every year at what point do you put the limit? the illegal was illegal migration bill was supposed well, illegal supposed to? well, the illegal migration act as it is now, means that parliament is supposed each supposed to set a number each year which point that we year after which point that we say that's that's what we take. there lots of people who there are lots of people who have big, problems with have big, big problems with that. there groups, migrant that. there are groups, migrant rights amnesty rights groups, amnesty international, rest international, all the rest of it that fundamentally it, who say that fundamentally the way the government is going about wrong. and therefore about it is wrong. and therefore we just get this intractable problem . the government wanting problem. the government wanting to do one things and many different ways slowing them different ways of slowing them down them through down and stopping them through the courts and means. the courts and other means. >> very >> okay, tom, thank you very much. there. our much. tom harwood there. our deputy editor. well, deputy political editor. well, in to the story that we in relation to the story that we opened this with opened up this hour with about human taunting our human traffickers taunting our government from the other side of the channel by posting tiktok videos saying that we are the government of turkey, of france and of great britain. we are in control of your borders. now, i'm now by international

i'm joined now by international security and border control expert bolton , who i expert henry bolton, who i believe i can bring into the fray . henry, thank you very much fray. henry, thank you very much for joining me. if henry's forjoining me. if henry's there, no . oh i don't think there, no. oh i don't think we've got henry bolton, unfortunately. but hopefully he does join us in a second. does join us in just a second. but yes , that's all right. we but yes, that's all right. we can henry bolton. i'm just can leave henry bolton. i'm just going to over into the inbox, going to go over into the inbox, actually, actually actually, because i was actually asking it, asking you what you made of it, whether had whether or not you've had enough. of the enough. now of some of the issues been going issues that have been going on in when it comes to in this country when it comes to our do our inability it seems to do anything. migrant related. i've been for a time that been saying for a long time that there tagged. we know there should be tagged. we know that disappear as soon as that they disappear as soon as they the tag they stroll off the boat, tag them, says yvonne. yvonne i get it. didn't realise as well it. but i didn't realise as well that the tagging doesn't necessarily mean that you can track thing that track them. another thing that we're to hear is a legal we're going to hear is a legal hurdle alluding hurdle on which tom was alluding to we try to make benefits to is if we try to make benefits contingent on them turning up and doing anything. so a channel migrants that's henry bolton. i believe we can bring him into the fray now. henry thank you very, very much. yes. international security and border henry , are

border control expert henry, are you you how do you feel you are you how do you feel about are now about the idea that we are now being from the being taunted from the other side channel people side of the channel by people who that they control our who saying that they control our borders who saying that they control our borde makes me angry. >> it makes me angry. >> it makes me angry. >> patrick, hopefully you can hear me okay. >> the network here is appalling. >> it makes me angry, but it doesn't surprise me in the slightest. you know , these slightest. you know, these groups are associated generally with rebel communities, and i say that broadly . if you look at say that broadly. if you look at albanian organised crime, very closely linked , it was with the closely linked, it was with the kosovo liberation army and kosovo liberation army and kosovo rebel groups within within albania. you look at the kurds, you know , whether they're kurds, you know, whether they're in turkey or whether they're in syria or iraq , they are people syria or iraq, they are people who have grown up having absolutely zero respect for the authorities in their own countries, let alone here. and what we've demonstrated , what we've demonstrated, patrick, not just us, but the french and the europeans, we have all demonstrated that we are not prepared to meet this head on. and so what they're

developing is something that they've they did for many years in their own regions to recruit people into their own political causes , as well as criminal causes, as well as criminal gangs , is to actually generate a gangs, is to actually generate a gangs, is to actually generate a gang culture, a sort of, you know, this this anti establishment sticking your fingers up at authority. we can do what we like. you see, we're the ones in control. they're not actually talking to you. and i, patrick, to ministers . patrick, or to ministers. they're talking to people that they want to join their gangs and their networks as well as people. they want to recruit in as business. >> mm yeah, no, indeed . but i >> mm yeah, no, indeed. but i mean there is some, there is some truth to what they're saying though isn't there. >> there is. >> there is. >> oh absolutely . we've allowed >> oh absolutely. we've allowed it happen . there is no it to happen. there is no question that . these are question of that. these are ruthless, ruthless people. tom tugendhat has just been over in iraq where he's been talking to the authorities there about hunting human traffickers. and he's looking at people who are exploiting primarily , but exploiting people primarily, but also people smugglers , hunting also people smugglers, hunting them down though they're

them down as though they're isis. i have said for years , isis. i have said for years, patrick, that that's really what we're dealing with here with these criminals these organised criminals wherever they in the wherever they operate in the world. if you look in africa, people smuggling networks through africa , there is through africa, there is a coincidence between where the people smuggling operation operators are based their routes and areas of conflict. they are associated not in every case, but in many cases with with rebel groups, with conflict and with destabilising nations. and if you don't head, if you don't recognise that, if you don't deal with that head on robustly, then it's going to come and visit you. and i'm afraid , you visit you. and i'm afraid, you know, one of the worrying things about this particular development, about this particular development , patrick, although development, patrick, although it doesn't surprise me , is that it doesn't surprise me, is that it doesn't surprise me, is that it will encourage people of that sort to come to the uk. well, they're already here, but they will be the organised criminal groups and the people that they are moving , they are now are moving, they are now deliberately that sort deliberately targeting that sort of anti—establishment rebel sort

of anti—establishment rebel sort of conflict oriented individual to come here. i'm not talking about refugees now, i'm talking about refugees now, i'm talking about the people who cause conflict . conflict. >> w- g exactly that. >> yeah, no, exactly that. exactly that. and people like you have saying a you have been saying that for a very of time, very long period of time, which is, do have a is, you know, if you do have a system that allows anybody to come in, that is going to include some people who really do wish you harm. but how many? thank it good thank you very much. it was good to of eventually. to get all of you eventually. henry there, is henry bolton there, who is international security and border x expert. now, border control. x expert. now, police forces have been to told investigate theft investigate every single theft and a crackdown low level and a crackdown on low level crime. but it's suella braverman right to say that they've got enough resource to do the job. i'm patrick christys on gb news britain's .

tv radio and online gb news british ians news . tv radio and online gb news british ians news. channel one. welcome back. >> it's 425. you're watching me patrick christie's on gb news and in a few moments time i will ask if prince andrew really is in from the cold after he joined other royals at balmoral and on the eve of the controversial ulez expansion. i'll you ulez expansion. i'll tell you about legal ruling about a landmark legal ruling that save motorists that could save motorists millions of pounds. but first, suella braverman has rejected claims that the police don't have the resources to carry out her plans for a new crime crackdown. and she's pointed out that there is a record number of officers working on the front line. the home secretary says officers must follow all reasonable lines of inquiry when they receive reports of crimes such theft or such as phone theft or shoplifting and criminal damage

i >> -- >> since i've been home secretary over the last year or so , i've come across many so, i've come across many accounts from victims of crime who have told me they've had their phone stolen, they've had their phone stolen, they've had their car stolen, their bike stolen their home, burgled and they've only been met with the issuance of a crime reference number by the police. and no further action. it's totally unacceptable. no crime is minor. >> and today marks a step change whereby i've challenged the police to follow every reasonable line of inquiry. >> just . >> just. >> just. >> well , i'm >> just. >> well, i'm joined now by perry benson, who's a former detective chief inspector with the met police. thank you very much. great to have you on show. great to have you on the show. what of that, then? what do you make of that, then? i got a point, i mean, she's got a point, doesn't people doesn't she, that people seem fobbed now and again. fobbed off every now and again. they get a crime reference number. perception they get a crime reference num maybe perception they get a crime reference num maybe leveleption they get a crime reference num maybe level crime that maybe lower level crime isn't being dealt with. what do you think? >> i think she's right in that the victims are being let down, but it's not just the police's fault. >> it is the government's fault.

>> it is the government's fault. >> yet again, we're hearing the government sort of criticising the police to the public by saying police are not saying that the police are not investigating thefts. >> i can assure the public >> when i can assure the public that thousands of officers every day are investigating all types of crime , especially the low of crime, especially the low level crime , to try and identify level crime, to try and identify those responsible . but it is those responsible. but it is really the cuts that the government have made over the years over the 13 that years over the 13 years that they've been charge . that has they've been in charge. that has really effect. you know, really had an effect. you know, the closures all the local the closures of all the local police certainly in police stations certainly in london a dramatic effect london has had a dramatic effect on the police response . the way on the police response. the way they deal with these types they could deal with these types of crimes. and the police have to prioritise the crimes that they investigate, but they do investigate all sorts of street robberies, all burglaries, as we now but they need more now know. but they need more resources. and certainly resources. and they certainly don't need the government coming out them for not out criticising them for not investigating thefts because that just says a message that just thinks, says a message to public the police to the public that the police don't when there are don't care when there are thousands officers day and don't care when there are thotout ds officers day and don't care when there are thotout who officers day and don't care when there are thotout who really rs day and don't care when there are thotout who really rs day who day out who really do care, who really do try to identify those responsible . but it's just not

responsible. but it's just not that straightforward . that straightforward. >> i mean, that's the way i kind of because i was of looked at that because i was wondering, she's wondering, well, if she's saying that have the that the police do have the resources to investigate hate resources to do investigate hate crimes and they're not doing it, the implication there is that the implication there is that the police can't be bothered . the police can't be bothered. >> exactly . but, you know, >> and exactly. but, you know, as i say, the officers day in, day out, they investigate every type crime most type of crime from the most serious homicide to terrorism offences . and certainly the offences. and certainly the local low level crime. they investigate as best they can with the resources they have. like i say, certainly in london, where they've closed the number of police stations and they've gone to sort of three boroughs being managed by one sort of super chief, superintend and the number officers that then number of officers that then cover areas that five, ten cover three areas that five, ten years ago would have been covered by a lot more officers. would those have would those numbers have been reduced, which will have an impact service that the impact on the service that the pubuc impact on the service that the public receive . now, like say, public receive. now, like i say, the they need more the officers, they need more resources. need more resources. they need more funding and yes, they will then be able give the public the be able to give the public the service they they require and they will look at all

investigative opportunities, whether it is cctv, whether it is ring doorbell footage or other types of doorbell footage thatis other types of doorbell footage that is available . the officers that is available. the officers do do that. but the reality is some of those images, even if they do get an image of a perpetrator where it's how clear is that image that is then usable to identify the person responsible . the other thing is i >> -- >> go on. come on, carry on. >>— >> go on. come on, carry on. » is— >> go on. come on, carry on. >> is around the sentence . and >> is around the sentence. and the criminal justice system as a whole . at the moment, there is whole. at the moment, there is no real deterrent to criminals that are committing these types of offences. so shoplifting , for of offences. so shoplifting, for example, there is no deterrent if you get caught for shoplifting you're unlikely shoplifting that you're unlikely to go to or you're to go to court or you're unlikely go to prison. unlikely to go to prison. certainly you've only certainly if you've only committed first committed it for the first offences. and that to offences. and then that needs to change. a message be change. a message needs to be sent if you sent to the public that if you go these crimes, sent to the public that if you go criminal these crimes, sent to the public that if you go criminal justice these crimes, sent to the public that if you go criminal justice system'imes, sent to the public that if you go criminal justice system will;, the criminal justice system will deal you strongly and that deal with you strongly and that needs be coming from the needs to be coming from the government, not just these sort of tokenism, public of of tokenism, public sort of comments about the comments being made about the police are going to be investigated types of investigated and all types of thefts because that just sends

thefts because that just sends the message public. the wrong message to the public. >> you very, >> okay, perry, thank you very, very there very much. perry benson, there is detective is a former detective chief inspector police. inspector with the met police. yeah tricky one yeah it's always a tricky one for now, do for suella braverman. now, i do feel for because feel quite sorry for her because clearly in the clearly she is getting it in the neck members of the public neck from members of the public who though burglary who feel as though a burglary isn't i isn't being investigated. and i think few weeks ago think i reported a few weeks ago about particular group of post about a particular group of post codes in the uk where they they hadnt codes in the uk where they they hadn't for hadn't solved a burglary for years , which is shocking if you years, which is shocking if you live area. so there is years, which is shocking if you live going area. so there is years, which is shocking if you live going on.ea. so there is years, which is shocking if you live going on. buto there is years, which is shocking if you live going on. but then re is years, which is shocking if you live going on. but then they that going on. but then the police will also say to you, well, actually we have well, actually we don't have enough working in, say, enough people working in, say, the sections of our force. the rape sections of our force. and so we need to actually go and be looking at serious crimes there. we do? do we there. what do we do? do we go and a missing and try and look for a missing bicycle instead of solving a rape? you know, tricky rape? you know, it's a tricky one the police, isn't it? one for the police, isn't it? but come but loads more still to come between because we between now and 5:00, because we will discuss whether prince andrew's over andrew's exile is finally over after he joined the prince and princess wales at a church princess of wales at a church service. i will build up to service. and i will build up to my special show tomorrow, grief, which will come live from one of the areas that will be badly affected by the ulez scheme .

mornings from 930 on, gb news how. >> now. >> okay . welcome along. now, of >> okay. welcome along. now, of course you will not want to miss this. find out very shortly. anyway, what happened when an american police officer came face to face base with a load of eco warriors so that we go now at 5:00 as it emerges that migrants could be fitted with electronic tags to stop them going missing. we will debate whether or not it is ethical to do that. and i discuss do that. and i will discuss claims from sir keir starmer's ,

claims from sir keir starmer's, director of strategy that red wall voters think that the labour leader is off the scale posh, but the controversial ulez expansion comes into force tomorrow with all londoners set tomorrow with all londoners set to pay £12.50 a day if their car doesn't meet emission standards. the scheme has upset many drivers living in the outer boroughs, but london mayor sadiq khan said that the decision to expand ulez was a difficult but vital one to make pollution causes a whole host of health issues from asthma to cancer to mentia to heart disease attributable to air pollution. >> but we also know that the ultra low emission zone works in central london. >> it led to an almost 50% reduction in toxic air. but here's the really bad news in outer london is where the worst consequences of air pollution are. the ten boroughs with the largest number of premature deaths are all in outer london. >> and when you bear in mind, our city has 500,000 people with respirator issues. >> two thirds of those in outer

london. and i believe clean air should be a human right, not a privilege. but i've been listening to the londoners, and that's why i've been given as much support as i to can londoners with a scrappage scheme . and i carry on listening i >> -- >> okay. -_ >> okay. so simon fawthrop is a conservative councillor for bromley, which is in the expansion zone, and bromley is where i will be doing my show from tomorrow and i believe i'll be doing part of with so be doing part of it with you. so good meet you. simon is he good to meet you. simon is he right? he's right? sadiq khan says that he's been listening and this is why he's doing you your he's doing it. you know, your your the most your area are the most vulnerable people to air vulnerable people to bad air and respiratory deaths . respiratory deaths. >> well, believe that. believe anything, of course , as we know, anything, of course, as we know, we've also got the highest elderly population in greater london. >> so it's not surprise that people die from exposure diseases a little bit earlier than possibly they might. >> and who knows where they started when they before they moved from may started in

london. et cetera. so i find the whole thing a nonsense. it certainly hasn't been listening to us. he was listening. he would . cancel this until there would. cancel this until there is an election next year. >> okay. yeah, well , simon, >> okay. yeah, well, simon, i mean, one of the big things that we're going to be looking at tomorrow is about how cost effective it is, what the kind of support like of public support is like on the ground as what's been ground as well. what's been happening the public happening with the public consultations what is consultations and also what is the actual science behind this ? the actual science behind this? what is the health benefits to it? and it's fair to say, is it not, right, simon, that the mood in bromley is not particularly positive? is that mainly based around people not wanting to have to pay more to drive ? i have to pay more to drive? i think what's happened is he's been found out. >> it's everybody knows it's got nothing to do with air pollution . and if it was patrick i'm sure you and i would be at the front of the queue campaigning for it. but actually it's all about

lining the pockets of failed transport for london, which unfortunately is out of control . it's spending way beyond its means and they've got to find that fill the gap somehow now. but instead of actually cutting back , doing the right thing with back, doing the right thing with it, it's actually actually what will do fleece some of the poorest people in in in london will do some of the people who are disabled and etcetera who rely on their cars for whatever reason and will have a go at them rather than actually actually trying to improve things by looking at his finances . finances. >> all right, simon, thank you very, very much. simon fawthrop there, conservative councillor for bromley , which is in the for bromley, which is in the expansion zone. and i will be meeting up with simon and a few other people. quite looking other people. i'm quite looking forward to bromley forward to going to bromley actually, i must say, not least forward to going to bromley actually, it's|ust say, not least forward to going to bromley actually, it's where y, not least forward to going to bromley actually, it's where y, not avid because it's where some avid viewers of this show will remember. striptease viewers of this show will ren charity striptease viewers of this show will ren charity , striptease viewers of this show will rencharity , so striptease viewers of this show will rencharity , so i've striptease viewers of this show will rencharity , so i've gotiptease viewers of this show will rencharity , so i've got fond se for charity, so i've got fond memories of bromley people in the course, the audience don't, of course, but i've got fond memories of bromley . but it's going to be

bromley. but it's going to be great and chat to local great to go and chat to local businesses, market businesses, chat to local market stall to stall holders, to local politicians , and also politicians as well, and also get a really balanced view. so people are in favour of people who are bang in favour of ulez in of other ulez bang in favour of other environmental options like it and those people who are diametrically opposed to it. there are so many questions about ulez, not least of course, because it's going to be happening there in other happening there and in other different country. different parts of the country. but the science but what actually is the science like behind it good? but what actually is the science likit behind it good? but what actually is the science likit that1d it good? but what actually is the science likit that kosher it good? but what actually is the science likit that kosher ?t good? but what actually is the science likit that kosher ? i good? but what actually is the science likit that kosher ? i do good? but what actually is the science likit that kosher ? i do haved? is it that kosher? i do have questions about that . why would questions about that. why would the mayor of london feel the need to pay £800,000 to acquire a climate study, which then wasn't happy with the result of so they didn't necessarily pubush so they didn't necessarily publish it all. and i find that bizarre. if you were so adamant that the science really is on your side of this, would you need to do that? but also they say things like 9 in 10 cars meet the emission zone standards. so 9 in 10 cars you won't have to pay for it. it's not really true because they're not. suppose it is just a small group of people who actually group of people who are actually going to be bearing the brunt of this it? so

this ulez charge, isn't it? so it'll fun in bromley it'll be good fun in bromley tomorrow about it'll be good fun in bromley tc little yw about it'll be good fun in bromley tclittle bit about it'll be good fun in bromley tclittle bit and about it'll be good fun in bromley tclittle bit and do about it'll be good fun in bromley tclittle bit and do the about it'll be good fun in bromley tclittle bit and do the kind about it'll be good fun in bromley tclittle bit and do the kind ofyout a little bit and do the kind of stuff that we should be doing a a little bit and do the kind of stu moret we should be doing a a little bit and do the kind of stu more ofe should be doing a a little bit and do the kind of stu more of hereyuld be doing a a little bit and do the kind of stu more of here ild be doing a a little bit and do the kind of stu more of here i think doing a a little bit and do the kind of stu more of here i think on ng a a little bit and do the kind of stu more of here i think on gba bit more of here i think on gb news. i've just got enough news. but i've just got enough time to show you a brilliant video united so video from the united states. so if and tired of if you are sick and tired of british police officers letting just stop oil and other eco activist protesters blockade roads people's roads and disrupt people's lives, how one lives, then check out how one american police officer decided to go in all guns blazing quite literally . literally. you might get that . you might get that. >> yeah . daryl you better move . >> yeah. daryl you better move. you're going to go back , change. you're going to go back, change. get down, down! get down on the ground i all of you, on the

service, apparently. now finally, keir starmer . yes. finally, keir starmer. yes. could he actually be too posh now ? i think anyone who's ever now? i think anyone who's ever heard of a chap called rishi sunak will laugh at that, won't they? but apparently the fact that he is called sir keir starmer is going down like a cup of cold, sick in the red wall. who would have thought that? patrick christys . gb news. get patrick christys. gb news. get your views coming in thick and fast. vaiews@gbnews.com. i will be having a debate in just a couple of moments time as to whether or not it's ethical to tag channel migrants so that we can track them and they don't abscond. but right now as your headunes abscond. but right now as your headlines with . aaron very good headlines with. aaron very good afternoon to you it's a minute past five here in the gb newsroom. >> the technical issue that caused the failure of air traffic control systems across the disrupting of the uk disrupting thousands of passengers has been fixed at national air traffic services

say it has identified and remedied the problem affecting its flight planning system. hundreds of flights, though, to and from the uk have been cancelled and with many more delayed by up to 12 hours on what is one of the busiest days for travel, transport correspondent at the times, ben clatworthy, says the delays , clatworthy, says the delays, which are also having an impact across europe, are likely to continue these knock on effects across the day will be very debilitating for airlines, particularly when crew will be going out of hours. >> and what we will probably see later on today is that people will be expecting to get on to planes heavily delayed and then told we're really sorry, but legally we are unable to fly this with the crew we have. so almost certainly a huge knock ons later today , if not into ons later today, if not into tomorrow . tomorrow. >> so ministers are being accused of disregarding safety concerns on the bibby stockholm barge. the fire brigades union has sent a pre—action protocol

letter to the home secretary raising the possibility of legal action. the union has previously described the barge as a potential death trap. the government, which insists the vesselis government, which insists the vessel is safe , has until vessel is safe, has until thursday reply to the legal thursday to reply to the legal letter. meanwhile the home office is reportedly considering the use of electronic tags to monitor asylum seekers who arrive in the country illegally. the times says officials have been asked to find ways to prevent the thousands of people who arrive on small boats from absconding . police do have the absconding. police do have the resources they need to meet a government pledge to crack down on crime. that's according to suella braverman, the home secretary who says police have disregarded theft and burglaries for too long despite record numbers of officers across the uk . labour criticised it as a uk. labour criticised it as a staggering admission of 13 years of tory failure. ms braverman says the force must follow all lines of inquiry. >> police have responded positively to my challenge, my request in committing nationwide to indeed following every

reasonable line of inquiry. >> so that now means that in the event of a car theft , phone event of a car theft, phone theft, robbery or burglary, if there's cctv footage of an incident, if there's dashcam footage, if there's smartphone footage, if there's smartphone footage, gps tracking evidence, a victim can produce evidence of an online resale of a stolen item, the police must follow up on those leads . on those leads. >> police have named the two people who died after driving into a flooded area in liverpool . 75 year old elaine marco and her 77 year old husband, philip, were both taken to hospital where they later died. an investigation is underway. police say they received reports of concern for the safety of a man and a woman in a black mercedes in the mossley hill area on saturday. in a statement, the family have said their devastated and heartbroken and they were much loved to parents four grandchildren and ten grandchildren . two men ten grandchildren. two men accused of a suspect acid

federation are taking place. rubiales is still refusing to resign after kissing the player on the lips at the women's world cup final. he says it was consensual . she denies that consensual. she denies that football's governing body, fifa, announced last week rubiales would be suspended for three months. the nhs is facing what's being described as a tidal wave of harm if eating habits don't change. the warning comes after two studies were published. highlights the dangers of ultra processed foods, which make up more than 55% of some people's diets. a researchers from the european society of cardiology in amsterdam found products like cereal, fast food and fizzy dnnks cereal, fast food and fizzy drinks increase the risk of high blood pressure. heart disease and strokes . this is gb news and strokes. this is gb news across the uk on tv, digital radio and smart speaker as well. we'll be back with more in about half an hour . we'll be back with more in about half an hour. but now it's over to . patrick

to. patrick >> well, we start with news of yet another scheme to tackle the migrant crisis. it's reported that the government could fit asylum seekers with electronic tags to stop them going missing. earlier this year, home office figures suggested thousands of albanian asylum seekers had absconded from hotels . well, absconded from hotels. well, this afternoon suella braverman was asked whether the government was asked whether the government was looking at using electronic tags to keep track of migrants . tags to keep track of migrants. >> as we've just passed our new illegal migration act that will enable to us detain illegal migrants and remove them swiftly from the uk to a safe country. >> we are working very intensive only to ensure that we have the detention capacity to enable us to deliver on our obligations and powers contained in the new act. >> but it does raise certain questions, doesn't it? okay so would it actually work ? are we would it actually work? are we able to use these tags to track migration movements? is it against their human rights to be able to do that, do you think?

but i'd want to know overarchingly. do you think it's ethical? joining me now is kevin saunders , who's former border saunders, who's former border force chief and a human rights lawyer, gilbert. of lawyer, paul gilbert. both of you, very much. great you, thank you very much. great to have you the show. kevin, to have you on the show. kevin, i'll you. do you i'll start with you. do you think tag think it's ethical to tag channel migrants >> yes, there is a perfectly all right. nothing wrong with it at all. under the new legislation that the home secretary has just mentioned, we should be detaining everybody that arrive in an unregulated manner. >> obviously, we can't do that because we don't have the detention space. >> so the next best thing is to tag these people. i mean, after all, patrick, if they don't want to be tagged, they don't have to come here. >> okay. all right. well, that's the starting point for us. i'll throw it over to you now, paul. do you think it's ethical that channel be channel migrants could be electronically tagged ? electronically tagged? >> well, i mean, first of all, suella braverman and in that

interview didn't actually answer the question that she was asked . perhaps not unsurprising for a politician about whether under the new legislation there would be an ability to impose a tag because in terms of how we deal with tags at the moment, under the law, we impose them as a condition of bail . condition of bail. >> and that is something that's decided on by a court. having heard lawyers submissions in relation to whether the imposed version of the tag is appropriate and indeed it's seen as a direct alternative of to where the court might be considering in remanding the defendant or the accused in custody . so it's seen as a very custody. so it's seen as a very draconian measure to as it's currently used . but we're currently used. but we're talking about people who have not been charged with because

that's the circumstances under which we use tags at the moment . yeah. any criminal offence and that's why imposing a or insisting on a tag , it clearly insisting on a tag, it clearly is , is wrong. i mean there is a is, is wrong. i mean there is a there is another technological question which is i'm not sure that these tags do what they it seems to be assumed they do do in terms of keeping a monitor on where people are because as i understand it, they send a message if somebody moves or somebody tampers with it rather than actually acting as a sort of gps tracker on where they are. >> i'll come i'll come back to you. paul that i'll come back to you. paul that i'll come back to you. paul that i'll come back to you. paul i'll lob it back over to you. kevin. i can't help but wonder if people who are dead against tagging people who we don't know who they are a lot of the time we don't know necessarily where they've come from. we do know that there's, you know, a fair number of them

absconding certainly not absconding and certainly not necessarily to go to the necessarily wanting to go to the asylum as well . i think asylum system as well. i think tagging is just a it's not that it's not that much of an infringement, is it? it's just like wearing a bracelet. well indeed, it's a lot of fuss about nothing , quite honestly . nothing, quite honestly. >> we could detain them if we had the detention space. we would detain them . but we don't would detain them. but we don't have the detention space. unfortunately we've only got about 2500 places in in detention. >> so we've got to go to the next best thing and we grant them immigration bail and then we tag them in. >> it really isn't a problem. patrick we've got to know where these people are. the only issue that i these people are. the only issue that! can these people are. the only issue that i can see is why do we have enough tags for all the people that are coming across ? that are coming across? >> well, that is quite a big problem, actually, because potentially we don't have enough tags. we've had 19,000 tags. i think we've had 19,000 and arrivals. so far this

and a few arrivals. so far this yeah and a few arrivals. so far this year. supposedly we've got 25,000 tags in the country and a load of them are already on people. so i'm not quite sure exactly how going to do exactly how we're going to do that. hypothetical that. but in this hypothetical world now living in, world that we are now living in, paul world that we are now living in, paul, that this is paul, do you think that this is just another thing for a lot just the another thing for a lot of human rights people to get involved with when in reality maybe all they want is open borders? i mean , we can't put borders? i mean, we can't put them on a barge. we can't put them on a barge. we can't put them air base. we them on an air force base. we can't seem to deport can't we can't seem to deport anyone tag them. anyone now. we can't tag them. well i can only speak for human rights lawyers , and i wouldn't rights lawyers, and i wouldn't say the view of the human say that the view of the human rights lawyer certainly not. >> is that there should >> my view is that there should be open borders . but but what >> my view is that there should be open borders. but but what is important is that anything that is imposed is imposed in a proportionate way that respects the human rights of the individual concerned. and it does not matter whether that person is a citizen of this country or not. it and that's why i don't agree that this is not a problem. this needs to be

looked at properly and as i say, in the eyes of the law , as it in the eyes of the law, as it currently is , imposing a tag on currently is, imposing a tag on somebody is effectively very similar to sending somebody putting somebody into custody . putting somebody into custody. and it has to be only done with the order of a court. and that has that standard has to remain . we can't create a situation where we're essentially we're deaung where we're essentially we're dealing or we're treating the people coming in in a different way to the way that we would treat someone accused of a crime in country . in this country. >> it's interesting, though , >> it's interesting, though, that, paula, i'll just stick with this for second, with you on this for a second, because, mean , there because, again, i mean, there will be a group people who will be a group of people who think have entered think that if you have entered a country and you country via a small boat and you you are not necessarily being forthcoming about saying who you are or what your intentions are. and whether or not and we don't know whether or not you've committed a crime in a country your over here. country on your way over here. et cetera. et cetera. et cetera. that warrant you being that does warrant you being treated a bit differently from

me, or kevin. if we me, you or kevin. if we committed a crime and we went to court and they said we're going to bail you, but wear this tag or whatever, i would have thought you could treat thought maybe you could treat people if people a bit differently if they've rocked here on a they've just rocked up here on a boat. no >> well, arrest them. >> well, fine. arrest them. charge them with an offence and treat them as somebody that's on bail. as you've just described. patrick but that's not what we do . we don't arrest them. and do. we don't arrest them. and charge them with criminal offences. but perhaps that's something that we should do, but we don't. and therefore our it is a huge imposition and, and it's frankly wrong to then attach a tag to them without a proper consideration by a court as to whether that . right. as to whether that. right. i mean you know in a way that's why it's so disappointing that suella braverman would not answer that question because if that's what the government wants to do, fine . put it into to do, fine. put it into legislation. have a process by

which those who make these decisions go through in order to decide whether or not a tag should be attached to somebody . should be attached to somebody. and she hasn't answered that question . she's just given this question. she's just given this sort of very nebulous explanation about about what they're passing. >> she might have i think she might have been burnt a little bit by relentlessly trying to impose things , none of which are impose things, none of which are actually really happening at the minute. and the minute. these raf bases and the barge and i think she barge, etcetera. and i think she probably nail probably doesn't want to nail her colours the of her colours to the mast of anything else because there's going that that going to be a fear that that isn't work either. isn't going to work either. and then point. good grief, then at some point. good grief, who knows happens. but who knows what happens. but kevin, put that kevin, i will. i will put that point then that we would point to you then that we would it actually deterrent it actually be a deterrent at all? because barge , all? because look, the barge, it's necessarily deterrent it's not necessarily a deterrent . rwanda, no planes have taken off at the moment at all. so would the idea of being ankle tag be a deterrent? i suppose it would be a deterrent for people looking abscond . looking to abscond. >> if you're looking at >> yeah. if you're looking at people that want to just to disappear into the unknown economy , it is a deterrent

economy, it is a deterrent because they won't be able to . because they won't be able to. >> and that's what the government are concerned because 50 government are concerned because so many. >> i'm going to cut across you there, kevin. i'm afraid. sorry about this, but you sound like a robot, so i'm going to have to just try and get that sorted. i'll back. i'll go back to, i'll go back. i'll go back to, to what? are to paul. paul, what? what are the ways can we stop these people absconding, think people absconding, do you think ? i mean, if they are ? seriously? i mean, if they are doing it is happening, doing it and it is happening, i mean, to find a mean, we have to try to find a way them not absconding and way of them not absconding and we just lock them in their we can't just lock them in their rooms because then with respect, you uke rooms because then with respect, you like would you know, people like you would say their human say that's against their human rights . rights. >> so want me to do >> so you want me to do something or advise on something that's suella braverman and seems to be incapable of dealing with? well, i'll i'll do my best. look, the if you want to do something which is a deterrent , it it needs to be deterrent, it it needs to be capable of having a deterrent effect . and part of that is that effect. and part of that is that it gets communicated in the right way in an effective way,

to those who are going to or stop the people who are doing the thing that you're trying to detect to act as a deterrent . detect to act as a deterrent. and that's why i always did wonder why by putting people on planes to rwanda was really seen as a as a deterrent because the message has got to go out there in a way that is going to put the put the people who take these terrible journeys off. and i suspect that there isn't a deterrent that will stop someone who, let's face it, has gone through an appalling journey just to get to calais , let alone just to get to calais, let alone what on earth is going to happen to them when they get on one of these inflatable boats and try and get across the channel . and and get across the channel. and that's really, i suspect you rightly said, i mean, you know, suella braverman has had her fingers burnt because she's do you accept do you do you do you accept , though, that we do have accept, though, that we do have an issue with people absconding ? >> 7-

>> we 7 >> we well, i'm ? >> we well, i'm going 7 >> we well, i'm going to ? >> we well, i'm going to defer to your other guest on that because he's far more experienced in this area than i am . am. >> i mean, i heard that on the on your news headline that it was thousands of albanians had absconded. i mean, that's stunning has always been an issue with those who who come into the country and then make applications to remain. that's mean. that's been a problem. that's been around for decades . that's been around for decades. i don't know whether it's any worse now than it was . um, i'll worse now than it was. um, i'll defer to kevin. >> i believe we might have you back now, so we'll try again. i mean , how big is the problem mean, how big is the problem with absconding that that would then maybe make it a more urgent, more pressing need to get people tagged up ? get people tagged up? >> certainly with the albanians, it was a huge problem and there are problems with other smaller groups that just want to disappear in the vietnamese were another problem that we had that

just wanted to disappear. and that's that's the big problem that's that's the big problem that we've got. we need to tag people to know where they are and where we can find them. that that's the big thing and we can do it . it's not difficult if do it. it's not difficult if there are enough tags in circulation, then it's relatively easy to do because we can we just detain them , tag can we just detain them, tag them and bail them . no, it's not them and bail them. no, it's not difficult . it really is not difficult. it really is not difficult. it really is not difficult . well, it will be difficult. well, it will be difficult. well, it will be difficult if lawyers get involved. >> oh, well , there we go. she >> oh, well, there we go. she saved a little bit . cattiness saved a little bit. cattiness for the end there, didn't we, charles, thank you very much. thank you very much , both of thank you very much, both of you. thoroughly enjoyed you. i thoroughly enjoyed that great stuff. take care. is kevin saunders, border force saunders, former border force chief human rights chief and the human rights lawyer paul gilbert. as well. two very distinct sides to that debate. look, there are practical issues with it. apparently, we don't have enough tags. a major one. but tags. so that's a major one. but how long would it really take to

get them made up? but you can just straight just see it happening straight away, start away, can't you? you start saying going to tag saying you're going to tag people because at people because they are at risk of fact of absconding, despite the fact that of people that we have had loads of people absconding and then yet the human rights brigade get involved, they involved, don't they? and they say, can't possibly say, no, you can't possibly do that. is what can that. the question is what can we loads more on we do then? but loads more on that website, that story on our website, gbnews.com. fastest gbnews.com. it's the fastest growing website in growing national news website in the got all the the country. it's got all the best opinion and the country. it's got all the bes'latest opinion and the country. it's got all the bes'latest breaking pinion and the country. it's got all the bes'latest breaking news. and the country. it's got all the bes'latest breaking news. but the latest breaking news. but get this as hospitals team up with trans rights charities who tell them to stop using words like mother yeah, i'm asking today is the nhs guilty of erasing women ? patrick christys erasing women? patrick christys on gb news

news. the people's channel. britain's news . news. the people's channel. britain's news. channel >> welcome back. it is 5:23. you're watching me, patrick christie's on gb news. in a few moments time , i'll discuss some moments time, i'll discuss some very intriguing comments. okay. so sir keir starmer's, director of strategy, says that the red wall voters think the leader is off the scale posh now , people off the scale posh now, people know it's not exactly like me to stand up for sir keir starmer, but is it just. the fact is it just the fact that it's sir keir because he's not actually posh , because he's not actually posh, is he? i think you look at rishi sunak went to westminster and he's quite posh really famously was you know, caught on camera saying , i didn't have any saying, i didn't have any working class friends. all right . was younger. and i'm sure that he of misspoke there to an he kind of misspoke there to an extent. mean, sir keir extent. but i mean, sir keir starmer is not off the scale

posh, is he? is that really posh, is he? and is that really going to badly for him at going to play badly for him at the next is i'm the next election? is he i'm going into some of your going to go into some of your emails now, though , and has emails now, though, and it has kicked about big kicked right off about that big debate had earlier on gb debate that we had earlier on gb views views to views at gb views .com as to whether or it's okay whether or not it's okay ethically okay tag channel ethically okay to tag channel migrants loads of people say look, it's a great show as always thank you very much barry here's an idea for you . why do here's an idea for you. why do we keep letting them flood this country? i think that certain people who are gutless have a responsibility to this nation. he's basically saying that he thinks that we should be tagging them and a lot of people saying that they here's elizabeth that they know, here's elizabeth know not be tagged. know they should not be tagged. they in a secure they should put in a secure compound until they are processed. they don't processed. hence, they don't need tagging. but elizabeth, i think of the think this is part of the problem, it? which is that problem, isn't it? which is that we're create a we're trying to create a physical compound. so got physical compound. so we've got the bibby stockholm barge , the bibby stockholm barge, wethersfield scampton problems with all of those sites, issues with all of those sites, issues with all of those sites, issues with all of those sites. hotels are not prisons. and so we therefore cannot be securing

them in those zones. so what is them in those zones. so what is the alternate lviv we let them walk around freely and then we are seeing loads of them abscond and that is a massive, massive problem, especially if they're just going into the underworld economy and the crime gangs, etcetera. so we're tagging them actually where the is , as actually where the issue is, as far can tell, with ankle far as i can tell, with ankle tags the practical stuff. so tags is the practical stuff. so we enough tags we haven't got enough ankle tags and it might be too difficult to actually monitor them. a lot of people are getting touch people are getting in touch saying, silly, people are getting in touch sayirwill silly, people are getting in touch sayirwill cut silly, people are getting in touch sayirwill cut them silly, people are getting in touch sayirwill cut them off. ly, they will just cut them off. yeah, . shouldn't we have yeah, exactly. shouldn't we have the right to an identity tag method without using the criminal tag we use in the detention system that says . detention system that says. david yeah, and that is the argument. david isn't it, that supposedly we would need some kind of change to the law? because as it stands , the only because as it stands, the only people we fit with ankle tags are who've gone through are people who've gone through some court system and is some kind of court system and is used an alternative to used as an alternative to putting them in prison. what i don't about that is don't understand about that is why do something why we can't just do something differently. why we can't just do something differ

cohort of people. why don't we just them? we don't to just tag them? we don't have to go through the same kind of legal yes, there legal loopholes. so yes, there we are. now, look, i've also been getting a lot of love in the inbox for a video that i'm about to play you again in a second. i saw it this morning when i came the office and when i came into the office and i was absolutely i thought this was absolutely hilarious. got to play hilarious. i have got to play this to of people. this video to a load of people. if you've already seen just if you've already seen it, just stick because stick with it because it is worth video worth it. it's a brilliant video from states . and if from the united states. and if you sick and tired of you are sick and tired of british police officers just letting protesters letting just stop oil protesters blockade roads or seen blockade roads or we've seen people, haven't we, ruining the chelsea flower show or lords at the cricket or the rugby or the snooker? you know, being able to disrupt people's lives? we had insulate britain before that. now i think legally known as insulate prison because that's where a load of them went. and then stopped. not then they stopped. not surprising , surprising now, isn't it, sitting roads and ruining sitting in the roads and ruining people's day, stopping people sitting in the roads and ruining people'toiay, stopping people sitting in the roads and ruining people'to hospitalying people getting to hospital appointments, police officers coming in and saying, well, do you a cup of tea we you want a cup of tea or we can't possibly gluey can't possibly rip your gluey hand we? well,

hand off the road, can we? well, we can. american cop, i can only assume was either having a bad day or had had it up to here with this lot. this is how he deau with this lot. this is how he dealt with the eco activists this . this. i get that. >> yeah . daryl you better move . >> yeah. daryl you better move. you're going to go back . they. you're going to go back. they. changed get down, down, get down on the ground . oh, i've got to on the ground. oh, i've got to calm down. get on the ground . calm down. get on the ground. get on the ground . don't move . get on the ground. don't move. we have no weapons at all. we're

environmental protesters . we . environmental protesters. we. i it just never gets old. >> that for me. i mean, it is what you. i don't think you can deny that that is like an excessive use of force. right. but it is just quite funny. it's the fact that he goes up for it with and smashes with his truck and smashes straight through barrier. straight through the barrier. then around the side, then he's up around the side, back then gun comes back again. then the gun comes out. yeah. i mean, look, he's had this lad, hasn't had a bad day this lad, hasn't he? think he? bless him. he think the doughnut closed . doughnut shop was closed. clearly he looks like a man who likes getting stuck into a krispy on krispy kreme. ploughs on straight through. it was for me. now i thought, what's he going to he's up the to do next? and then he's up the embankment, isn't big nice embankment, isn't he? big nice wide arc there. comes back for more . and i thought, is he more. and i thought, is he actually really to go full actually really going to go full tonto and start mowing them down? up here. but down? and he speeds up here. but then just slams brakes on then just slams the brakes on now. thought, he's not now. and i thought, no, he's not going gun out, is he? going to get the gun out, is he? he can't really justify getting a out for that. the guns a gun out for that. up the guns out guns out, get

out there. it is guns out, get on the ground. everyone's a bit shocked . and he's like, i'll shocked. and he's like, i'll finish it off. kneel on finish it off. i'll kneel on them. i can. them. i'll do whatever i can. how would you feel if our police officers did something similar with the eco activists here? but there we go. i just thought i had play you that video one had to play you that video one more time. now, two serious more time. now, two more serious news. this an news. now. this was an interesting story was interesting story that was developing on developing just before i came on air. this air air. it was about this air traffic control or traffic control issue or aerospace . so there was aerospace issue. so there was a technical fault that we know it led to absolute chaos above the above the airports and in the skies above britain, didn't it? we were wondering whether or not there'd been a hack or whether or not this was an attack , or not this was an attack, because it has a lot of the hallmarks it. time hallmarks of it. the time of yean hallmarks of it. the time of year, example, know it year, for example, they know it was very busy day. also. year, for example, they know it w'was very busy day. also. year, for example, they know it w'was very very busy day. also. year, for example, they know it w'was very similarisy day. also. year, for example, they know it w'was very similarisy any. also. year, for example, they know it w'was very similarisy an attack it was very similar to an attack that place against the us that took place against the us just couple of months ago. but just a couple of months ago. but the latest is this the major problem affecting uk air traffic control today has reportedly been resolved. a statement from national air traffic services says we have identified and remedied the technical issue

proud sponsors of weather on. gb news. >> the n hs news. >> the nhs has been accused of erasing women after dozens of trusts signed up to a scheme that encourages them not to use words like mother and crucially , women when it comes to scoring using inclusive terms such as clients or rewarded . whereas clients or rewarded. whereas words like mother results in points being deducted . and i points being deducted. and i mean it is bonkers this, but alas, it's happening. with me now is aisha ali khan, a women's rights campaigner. hello. thank you very much. great to have you on the show . on the show. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> do you think in a desire to try to accommodate everybody, we are actually starting to exclude women ? women? >> oh, absolutely. i think i mean, the intentions behind and this this latest policy would have been well—meaning . there have been well—meaning. there would have been well placed try to be as inclusive as possible.

but in the process, what's happening is that the language that we rely on is, as in mothers and babies and daughters and so on, and the language that's that's been taken away and that is so wrong because i think there is a way of making the whole process as inclusive as possible . having a baby is as possible. having a baby is a magical, magical thing to have happened. my son, my son, he's 19, but i still remember it like yesterday when i went into hospital . and literally it was hospital. and literally it was the mum to be or, you know , the mum to be or, you know, how's the baby doing? and so on. and, you know, it was a fabulous, fantastic experience. and i think about all those people that are having babies now to have these kind of terms changed and taken away from them , i think it's really not the right thing. and i think there has to be some some middle ground and that we can find where everybody feels included and, you know, find the process

enjoyable, because i think it starts with language, but then we're also seeing the practical results of that, which is that if you were raised something linguistically, then , you know, linguistically, then, you know, in, in actual practise you erase that as well, which is why we see men on women's wards , for see men on women's wards, for example, or you end up in other situations as well, whether it's prisons or indeed just changing rooms generally, you know, people now becoming a lot more comfortable at saying that, that men who identify as women can can enter your spaces, as it were . were. >> and i think that's partly to do with the language, isn't it ? do with the language, isn't it? >> it'sjust do with the language, isn't it? >> it's just one second. i think a lot of the language i'm sorry about men that identify as women being allowed into women's only spaces. there's still a lot of debate around it. there's still a lot of pushback as well, because a lot of the situations arise from a safeguarding concern . so i think a lot of it concern. so i think a lot of it is still something that we're

still talking about. we're still trying to find a middle ground. but i do feel that we need to be consulted as as women , as, you consulted as as women, as, you know , mothers ourselves as women know, mothers ourselves as women that have given birth. we need to be consulted. and decisions are being made in our names by people in in authority , people people in in authority, people in charge that have no idea how people feel because they haven't taken the time or the effort to talk to us to find out how we feel and how we can find a way forward. it'sjust feel and how we can find a way forward. it's just it just feels like the policies are announced and where just told to get on with it and that's it. there's no discussions. there's no debate, and there's no taking into account of what we think and what we feel. and i think that should be the biggest lesson here, that you cannot just go around and change debates and introduces terms like clients that just really, really takes away from that magical experience of giving birth and being a mother and so

on. i think that , you know, i on. i think that, you know, i think that's really wrong in my opinion. >> aisha, thank you very, very much. aisha ali khan, the women's rights campaigner, just responding to allegations that the being guilty of the nhs is being guilty of erasing women by calling them things like clients instead. but if labour failed to win the next general election, will it be because plans for the because their plans for the economy add up? will it be economy don't add up? will it be because doesn't seem economy don't add up? will it be betrust�* doesn't seem economy don't add up? will it be betrust them doesn't seem economy don't add up? will it be betrust them to doesn't seem economy don't add up? will it be betrust them to clamp sn't seem economy don't add up? will it be betrust them to clamp down zem economy don't add up? will it be betrust them to clamp down on| to trust them to clamp down on illegal migration? or will it be because sir keir starmer is too posh ? well, starmer is director posh? well, starmer is director of strategy . deborah matheson of strategy. deborah matheson said that red wall voters think the labour leader is off the scale. posh matheson made the comments in 2021 before she took up her current role, but it's just been revealed now. joining me political commentator just been revealed now. joining me spencer. commentator just been revealed now. joining me spencer. commthankr just been revealed now. joining me spencer. commthank you. peter spencer. peter, thank you. i don't i don't often stick up for keir starmer , really, but i for keir starmer, really, but i think i don't think he is off the scale posh, is he really? well i mean, the whole thing fascinates me. >> there are 45 red wall seats, so they do actually matter. they could they could switch the

general action either way. but it's worth remembering that at the last election , they switched the last election, they switched their allegiance , traditional their allegiance, traditional allegiance from labour to boris johnson, who was not not so much got a plum in his mouth. he's got a plum in his mouth. he's got half an orchard stuffed away by the sound of his voice and makes bertie wooster look like a prole , know? but keir prole, you know? um, but keir starmer, i mean, yeah, he's got a knighthood. and he was a director of public prosecutions, but he comes from a essentially a working class family. his dad pulled himself. his dad was a toolmaker, pulled himself up by his boot strings. keir then went on to he did go to grammar school having passed the 11 plus. okay became fee paying, but he got a kind of a bursary, so he's i mean, to my mind, he's anything but posh, which makes you wonder quite which way the red wall voters will go at the next election if they think he's too posh. what about rishi sunak, who's twice as rich as the king? yeah, he's a practically a billionaire and

was head boy at one of the poshest schools in england and wolves. >> yeah, no, exactly. i mean, thatis >> yeah, no, exactly. i mean, that is the case, isn't it, really? and i think this idea that now the red wall voters won't vote for keir starmer because they think he's off the scale, posh is completely blown out water by the fact out of the water by the fact that loads of them vote for that loads of them did vote for bofis that loads of them did vote for boris just wonder boris johnson. i just wonder whether whether or not whether or not whether or not they feel as though keir they feel as though sir keir starmer relatable starmer is relatable enough. i think got a little bit of think he's got a little bit of a personality problem, but to be honest, argue, says rishi. >> well, i'm afraid to say i'm forced to agree with you again . forced to agree with you again. i mean, i mean, it's not necessarily quite fair to call them both a charisma free zone , them both a charisma free zone, but they're pretty sadly lacking it. i mean, one of the great tragedies from the point of view of the labour party is that that judging by all the opinion polls, the next election is an absolute open goal . if they had absolute open goal. if they had anybody who who had sort of had that that grit and that oratorical oratorical , i'll read oratorical oratorical, i'll read that again. oratorical flair.

they they would absolutely walk it as it is. we've got keir starmer , who is solid and starmer, who is solid and dependable . and of course, one dependable. and of course, one of the awful things is that while the tory party was tearing itself to shreds and trying to take the nation with it, it would seem keir starmer was labelled as boring and boring. of course, can be safe, which is a good thing. now it would be rather nice if he could sound a little bit more sexy, but no matter how much tuition he might have had behind the scenes, there's not much evidence of it. >> no indeed. peter, thank >> no. no indeed. peter, thank you very fascinating you very much. fascinating stuff. it's peter spencer, our political commentator always stuff. it's peter spencer, our politiyto commentator always stuff. it's peter spencer, our politiyto comryou ator always stuff. it's peter spencer, our politiyto comryou onr always stuff. it's peter spencer, our politiyto comryou on the ilways stuff. it's peter spencer, our politiyto comryou on the show. great to have you on the show. take a take care. now, there's just a few hours to go until the ulez expansion scheme comes into force and people affected by the plans to on plans have vowed to keep on fighting. sadiq khan's flagship policy i'll be out and policy tomorrow i'll be out and aboutin policy tomorrow i'll be out and about in bromley as we do a special from there looking at ulez from a perspective of people who hey, some of them are happy about it, some of them aren't happy about it, but they're all going be talking aren't happy about it, but

on gb news, the people's. channel >> welcome back. it is 546. you're watching patrick christie's on gb news. now, london's controversial ulez expansion comes into force today . tomorrow, drivers set to pay £12.50 a day if their car doesn't meet emission standards. it's also important for me to say it is very much not just a greater london story. this there are schemes like this taking place right across the uk. indeed, many of got in touch

indeed, many of you got in touch to that it's happening indeed, many of you got in touch to birmingham it's happening indeed, many of you got in touch to birmingham being|ppening indeed, many of you got in touch to birmingham being one1ing indeed, many of you got in touch to birmingham being one1inthem in birmingham being one of them now. upset many now. the scheme has upset many people living in outer people living in the outer boroughs, london mayor sadiq boroughs, but london mayor sadiq khan decision to khan says that the decision to expand a difficult but expand ulez was a difficult but vital one. >> pollution caused a whole host of health issues from asthma to cancer , dementia to heart cancer, dementia to heart disease attributable to air pollution. >> but we also know that the ultra low emission zone works acas in central london. it led to an almost 50% reduction in toxic air. but here's the really bad news in outer london is where the worst consequences of air pollution are. the ten boroughs with the largest number of premature deaths are all in outer london. and when you bear in mind, our city has 500,000 people with respiratory issues. two thirds of those in outer london and i believe clean air should be a human right, not a privilege. but i've been listening to the londoners, and that's why i've been given as much support as i to can londoners with a scrappage scheme . and i'll carry on

scheme. and i'll carry on listening . listening. >> okay. well in a landmark legal case, scaffolder noel wilcox won a ruling against ulez roadsides after racking up a bill of 11,500 pounds. i'm delighted to say that noel joins me now. noel i mean, congratulations. what happened ? congratulations. what happened? what happened? first and foremost , what happened? first and foremost, hello there, what happened? first and foremost , hello there, patrick. foremost, hello there, patrick. >> can you hear me okay? >> can you hear me okay? >> i've got you, mate. yeah. come on, crack on. what happened? what happened? >> um. well it was through the pandemic that we received 11,500 pounds worth of fines because i was driving through the z. well, it wasn't me personally , but one it wasn't me personally, but one of my drivers was driving through the z and he'd gone through the z and he'd gone through the z and he'd gone through the cameras that nobody was aware of , that there was was aware of, that there was a charge which and all of a sudden we ended up with 11,500 pounds worth of fines . because i'm a

worth of fines. because i'm a hgv, you're supposed to pay £100 loads every time you were going to go into the road. and if you didn't pay the £100, then you were given a £1,000 fine. wow. but because of the pandemic , but because of the pandemic, royal mail hadn't delivered any of the post to us. so we weren't aware that we were racking up these fines and then if you don't pay the £1,000 within a certain time , um, it then rises certain time, um, it then rises to £1,500. oh this is the kind of story that annoys the hell out of me. >> you know, where you don't realise you're doing something wrong and then something else that isn't your fault happens like you don't get this stuff delivered. time delivered. and then by the time and then got. and then and then you've got. and then you've it, right? you've got to fight it, right? so you fought this you won. so you fought this and you won. am right ? am i right? >> well, yeah. so what what we did, we appealed again, um, to direct and in the appeal said to us the onus is on the driver to

check their routes. so so this day and age , patrick, with the day and age, patrick, with the amount of roadworks that we've got, the amount of road closures that we've got, everything else that's going on when you're driving this day and age that's near on impossible . and then near on impossible. and then obviously what that did was it made me curious to find out what these signs were, because there was no visible signage to me that there was a charging scheme in place. so that took me on the journey of looking at the road traffic regulation act. and in the legislation it qatar historically states that there must be a red and a white c so, you know, like when you're driving, um , have you been over driving, um, have you been over to dartford charge? >> yes, i've got done actually. so yeah , yeah. it's a dartford charge. >> so when you're going over the bridge, there's a lot of warning, isn't there, that you're going to be charged for going toll roads? >> yeah, i did miss that.

>> yeah, i did miss that. >> . yeah. >> but yes. yeah. >> but yes. yeah. >> really ? did you miss it all right? >> no. yes. anyway. right. carry on. >> right . >> right. >> right. >> so and then obviously there's a boundary on the floor that says to you that you're actually in the charging zone. yep. so i drew the comparisons together and i thought, why is it that we're when we're driving towards the dartford charge , that it the dartford charge, that it clearly states that you're being charged, but the ulez at the time just says that it's a ulez? yeah. so how is anybody from birmingham or nottingham or anybody coming from up north? how were they supposed to know that they are being charged? or even what the boundary actually is ? is? >> good. so, so this is?— >> good. so, so this is, is? >> good. so, so this is, this is a really good point actually, which is you're right, we see those signs there . you know, you those signs there. you know, you are now entering ulez or ultra low emission but you know low emission zone, but you know what? it doesn't actually tell you you're getting charged you that you're getting charged for it, i don't think. does it?

and you what for it, i don't think. does it? and charge you what for it, i don't think. does it? and charge going ou what for it, i don't think. does it? and charge going to what for it, i don't think. does it? and charge going to be.|t for it, i don't think. does it? and charge going to be. so for it, i don't think. does it? and coulde going to be. so for it, i don't think. does it? and could understandably, so you could understandably, if you're from area you're not from the area or you've mars you've just landed from mars or from country , you from a different country, you wouldn't know, would and so wouldn't know, would you? and so you which you won that ruling, which hopefully i don't know. i mean, does set a legal precedent? hopefully i don't know. i mean, doethey;et a legal precedent? hopefully i don't know. i mean, doethey now legal precedent? hopefully i don't know. i mean, doethey now have precedent? hopefully i don't know. i mean, doethey now have prchange? hopefully i don't know. i mean, doethey now have prchange all do they now have to change all their signs ? their signs? >> um, it's persuasive . >> um, it's persuasive. >> um, it's persuasive. >> okay. yeah, it's persuasive. >> okay. yeah, it's persuasive. >> i mean , look, all i know. >> i mean, look, all i know. look, i'm not a solicitor. i'm not a lawyer or anything like that, you know, i'm just, uh , a that, you know, i'm just, uh, a normal guy who runs a business. and when you've got 11,500 pounds worth of fines , you know, pounds worth of fines, you know, i'm going to carry out my due diligence . and that's exactly diligence. and that's exactly what i did . diligence. and that's exactly what i did. um, diligence. and that's exactly what i did . um, it is a legal what i did. um, it is a legal precedent as far as i'm aware. okay. um, and my ruling was my ruling and my ruling states that the signage is unlawful and it's illegal. mar—a—lago also in that ruling. in that ruling, it

categorically stated that he has to refund me all my money. so when i was aware of the actual charges, the charges that i was faced with, yeah, we signed up to that auto pay thing. >> okay. yeah yeah. and this is this is what this. >> okay. yeah yeah. and this is this is what this . but this is this is what this. but this is why noel. because we're just a bit pressed for time, mate. sorry but i will talk to you again in future on this. but this is why grateful that this is why i'm so grateful that you've come on and told people this. it worked this. because if it worked for you, chance it you, there's a chance that it might work for other people as well. they are well. maybe people, if they are that way inclined, can go and get challenged sure get it challenged and make sure that get, you that they they don't get, you know, ripped off if know, needlessly ripped off if thatis know, needlessly ripped off if that is what people has that is what people think has been thank you been going on. no. thank you very much . it's absolutely very much. it's been absolutely to great have you on the show. well done. i think that's a well done. and i think that's a good british victory that in the in some egregious in the face of some egregious power well done. no. power. no. well done. no. wilcox, there is scaffolder wilcox, there is a scaffolder who against who won a legal case against transport for yes. so, transport for london. yes. so, so little guy doesn't so often the little guy doesn't win. it's nice to see win. you know, it's nice to see that. emily carver is that. anyway, emily carver is with you're dewbs with me now. you're in for dewbs & doesn't look & co. mark steyn doesn't look like guy. like a little guy. >> scaffolder . like a little guy. >> a:affolder . like a little guy. >> a metaphorically little guy.
