to its final on to going its final readings on wednesday. okay and of the wednesday. okay and one of the things the government is things that the government is seemingly concerned about, seemingly very concerned about, and is and i think rightly so, is having these eight, nine, ten year olds on social media accounts having tick and accounts having tick tock and having whatnot and essentially they could lose these social media companies. they media accounts companies. they can their can lose like 10% of their annual income world income if they don't i think that they don't comply. i think that children should not be on social media. >> i find them annoying on social media. you what >> i find them annoying on socyou nedia. you what >> i find them annoying on socyou think? you what do you think? >> it's terrible for >> i think it's terrible for the. you're talking about watching what challenge. the. you're talking about watnow, what challenge. the. you're talking about watnow, if what challenge. the. you're talking about watnow, if you'ret challenge. the. you're talking about watnow, if you're a challenge. the. you're talking about watnow, if you're a chaiyeare. >> now, if you're a nine year old, you can now old, it's like if you can now get a tiktok account, going get a tiktok account, it's going to more valuable, to be all the more valuable, isn't so naughtiest, isn't it? so the naughtiest, most be most cunning children will be they'll status. they'll have more status. so it's prize now. it's really a prize now. >> yeah, i suppose that's true . >> yeah, i suppose that's true. well, that would at least force them to show a little bit of initiative. yeah, exactly . which initiative. yeah, exactly. which i think is good. they shouldn't just be low hanging for just be low hanging fruit for them well, got them all the time. well, you got them all the time. well, you got the times, cressida. with what is some sort of destiny's is that a some sort of destiny's child reunion there by the look of it. >> how about that? >> how about that? >> that's the. that's our queen.

have expected to be on the front pages. be honest with you, have expected to be on the front pagezthis be honest with you, have expected to be on the front pagezthis feelsionest with you, have expected to be on the front pagezthis feels like ;t with you, have expected to be on the front pagezthis feels like awith you, have expected to be on the front pagezthis feels like a muchou, josh, this feels like a much bigger story to me than bad beaches. >> yeah birmingham >> absolutely. yeah birmingham city council effect of city council declares effect of bankruptcy, which is different from other kind of bankruptcy. it's effect. it's not ineffective based . what it means ineffective based. what it means is that now they are only legally obliged to pay for the for the stuff that like bins and the very basic . the very basic. >> yeah. that's what makes it ineffective. the stuff which they should have been focusing on all this instead of on all this time instead of whatever wasting whatever they've been wasting their whatever they've been wasting the i whatever they've been wasting thei mean , i wouldn't >> i mean, i wouldn't necessarily sympathy in necessarily have sympathy in local wasting their local councils wasting their money, but the reason for them going over is because they're basically they they paid about a billion so far back of an equal pay billion so far back of an equal pay settlement from about ten years ago. and they've still got about another 760 million to settle. so this is that was a load of people who women presumably who were who were i mean, mostly because it was the types of jobs that women tend to do. >> yeah. yeah. but i mean, they were very well men. very well.

yeah but what i is men yeah but what i mean is men don't to sue for equal pay. don't tend to sue for equal pay. the presumption is that the don't tend to sue for equal pay. the preweren't n is that the don't tend to sue for equal pay. the preweren't gettingt the don't tend to sue for equal pay. the preweren't getting equal pay women weren't getting equal pay with the men rather than the other mean, i'm not other way round. i mean, i'm not this not saying that this is what i'm not saying that they that's they were. yeah, but that's what it right? yeah. they were. yeah, but that's what it and'ight? yeah. they were. yeah, but that's what it and'ight?weren't. >> and they weren't. they i don't they getting >> and they weren't. they i don bonuses they getting >> and they weren't. they i don bonuses thaty getting >> and they weren't. they i don bonuses thaty were ting the bonuses that men were getting. that's, that's the bonuses that men were gettiof. that's, that's the bonuses that men were gettiof it. that's, that's the bonuses that men were gettiof it. i that's, that's the bonuses that men were gettiof it. i mean, 'hat's, that's the bonuses that men were gettiof it. i mean, thiss, that's the bonuses that men were gettiof it. i mean, this isthat's the bonuses that men were gettiof it. i mean, this is the�*s part of it. i mean, this is the problem, obviously, women part of it. i mean, this is the proble workplace ly, women part of it. i mean, this is the proble workplace and women part of it. i mean, this is the proble workplace and birmingham in the workplace and birmingham is suffering accordingly . is suffering accordingly. >> it does make you wonder whether is know, whether there is you know, whether there is you know, whether kind of whether there isn't some kind of almost moral argument against historical settlements like that, being able to just tip a city into a catastrophe like this. it doesn't seem to me completely agree, because surely now there's going be more suffering. >> women in cities need >> women in the cities need access ,i >> women in the cities need access , i don't know, access to, i don't know, whatever the council does. i mean do you draw a line mean, when do you draw a line under don't i don't know. >> people i mean, it was ten >> but people i mean, it was ten years arguably years ago, those people arguably did. unfair . did. it was unfair. >> they it was you know, >> they well, it was you know, the i the court settled it. so i suppose for to us it suppose it's not for to us it just seems like catastrophe . i just seems like a catastrophe. i don't know how they ever claw their this. their way out of this. >> well, i think declare >> well, i think they declare that save that by now they can then save that by now they can then save that they would be that money that they would be putting these other things

putting on these other things like it like libraries or whatever it is. it's terrible for the city. yeah it's obviously birmingham's, , it's birmingham's, you know, it's a huge city, an and it's not alone. >> right. we've seen enough but this is the largest we've seen woking and slough places of that sort of size. yeah. yeah. this seems to be i don't know if you call epidemic but there's call it an epidemic but there's definitely sometimes these things on for things may be rumbling on for some until the news bothers some time until the news bothers to suppose to investigate them. i suppose they, accumulate a certain they, they accumulate a certain mass you start to recognise mass and you start to recognise a but yeah. a pattern. but yeah. >> do you think i mean the things that they can still spend on, don't you think that's going to difficult to be really difficult to police within because within the council? because if somebody with a somebody comes to you with a good , if you're person good story, if you're the person writing checks , you'll still writing the checks, you'll still feel it right ? feel obliged to do it right? >> absolutely. feel obliged to do it right? >> notbsolutely. feel obliged to do it right? >> not bankrupt like if i >> it's not bankrupt like if i were bankrupt, i'd be bankrupt. >> exactly. i don't >> yeah, exactly. well, i don't know how they claw their way. i genuinely don't, because it's such sum . unless such a vast sum. unless birmingham printing birmingham can start printing its own money. perhaps. maybe. i mean, the city has arguably changed over the last sort changed a lot over the last sort of ten, 15 years. >> mean, become >> yeah. i mean, it has become not rubbish . not as rubbish. >> i haven't been there so much

. yeah, i used to go there a lot. the glee was always a fun club, you know. but mr egg has gone. problem. gone. that may be the problem. >> . yeah. >> and also. yeah. >> and also. yeah. >> mr egg yeah. >> and also. yeah. >> mr eg classic. many, >> mr to classic. i had many, many breakfasts. many many breakfasts. mr egg many breakfast. the breakfast. there that's the start decline crested at start of the decline crested at the times have identify the one tory cabinet member whose popularity is bucking the downward trend is it the cat? >> it's not the cat. >>— >> it's not the cat. >> it's not the cat. >> it's kemi badenoch kemi badenoch tory badenoch it becomes tory supporters it, minister. supporters favour it, minister. so she is absolutely smashing it. she's got a 59% approval rating , which is i mean suella, rating, which is i mean suella, for example, has got 21, but she not doing so well, —3.8 points. so it looks like if they if they had a an election for the leader of the party now it would be her. >> i mean, she was very popular dunng >> i mean, she was very popular during the last leadership election on this channel as well . but also just generally among the staunch the sort of most staunch supporters. she seems what they call sound, generally speaking . call sound, generally speaking. >> so the two big things are the trade been trade deals that she's been involved gender self involved in and the gender self id put to that. there's id put a stop to that. there's no mixed toilets. well

no more mixed toilets. well there are still here, but eventually able to wear eventually we'll be able to wear flip to the work toilets flip flops to the work toilets again be. again and it will be. >> and can on her >> and she can think on her feet. good at the feet. she's pretty good at the box. not say she's box. but that's not to say she's a effective communicator . a very effective communicator. >> that quality >> she's she's got that quality in where, you in a politician where, as you say, sound , she say, she sounds sound, she sounds normal. she's very sounds normal. and she's very intelligent knowledgeable . intelligent and knowledgeable. we don't know much about her economic policies necessarily and whatnot . and maybe that's and whatnot. and maybe that's why she didn't go all the way with the leadership election. but she is the but we'll see if she is the leader in waiting. >> so i suppose the big question is if which not entirely is if which is not entirely covered by this story, just covered by this story, but just while know , well, i while we're, you know, well, i can a small straw poll can conduct a small straw poll if sunak is utterly humiliated at the next general election, which is certainly possible . which is certainly possible. should he go, would expect should he go, would you expect him yeah, him to go? yeah, 100. >> gone like . yeah. in >> he'd be gone like. yeah. in in the first day or two, he announces. >> would you agree with that. yeah. yeah. >> would you agree with that. yeah think. out and do a >> i think come out and do a very quick. >> hasn't had it for >> i mean he hasn't had it for long he. that's the only long has he. that's the only thing. you thing. i mean i suppose you know. on the other hand he know. but on the other hand he did launch in did fight and launch a coup in order to get to get it. got it.

>> yeah. yeah. i mean it's the fact that the tory membership , i fact that the tory membership, i mean, it'd interesting to mean, it'd be interesting to see, first of all if the who the uk might actually vote for as a tory we haven't tory leader because we haven't had . but, but, but had a chance yet. but, but, but i that they messed up i think that they messed up actually voting. i think that if she had won that a leadership election, would have election, i think she would have been dangerous for, for been really dangerous for, for starmer. yeah, you know, but we we'll see. >> well i mean i, i think they should have just left truss in charge and that would have been better for me. certainly personally in terms of tax liabilities, also i think it liabilities, but also i think it would have made more sense for sunak could have then taken sunak who could have then taken over her defeat over after her crushing defeat and to a and looked forward to building a party. why anyone party. i don't know why anyone would months. party. i don't know why anyone woqunowing months. party. i don't know why anyone woqunowing were)nths. party. i don't know why anyone woqunowing were going just knowing you were going to get slaughtered. >> think maybe ego >> well, i think maybe it's ego . can turn it . maybe he thinks he can turn it around. , he's not. i feel around. i mean, he's not. i feel sorry the because sorry for the guy because he isn't. over yet . anyway. >> it's not over yet. anyway. the rocket may the little pocket rocket may pull it off. you never know. josh, telegraph , we have news josh, telegraph, we have news that is no longer a that shoplifting is no longer a crime. it's been downgraded to a sport. is that right? yeah

pressure dominating the weather across uk. but we are going across the uk. but we are going to something an easterly to have something of an easterly wind pushing and on wind pushing its way in. and on that easterly, going that easterly, we're going to drag low cloud , some sea drag in some low cloud, some sea fog the north sea fog in from the north sea affecting eastern parts of england also eastern england and also eastern scotland where we're likely england and also eastern scotannd where we're likely england and also eastern scota little 1ere we're likely england and also eastern scota little bits we're likely england and also eastern scota little bit ofe're likely england and also eastern scota little bit of drizzlyaly england and also eastern scota little bit of drizzly rain see a little bit of drizzly rain overnight. further overnight. elsewhere further south and west, clear skies, a few pockets mist and fog, few pockets of mist and fog, though, temperatures though, and temperatures not dropping a huge amount. some places above celsius. places staying above 20 celsius. tonight, night for tonight, a tropical night for some, a difficult night for some, but a difficult night for sleeping. a cloudy start then down the eastern side of the uk on wednesday. but that low cloud that murk is going to quite quickly burn back towards the coast for most of us, i say for most because across eastern parts of scotland we're likely to on some low to hold on to some of that low cloud. otherwise, lots of sunshine around, but perhaps a bit some, bit cloudier for some, particularly of particularly across parts of northern ireland. those northern ireland. look at those temperatures, little temperatures, though, a little bit today , likely to bit higher than today, likely to see highs around 32 or 33 celsius into thursday. and there's the chance of some heavy thundery showers making their way northwards the western way northwards up the western side of uk, central and

side of the uk, more central and eastern parts of the country are likely to stay dry and sunnier and temperatures are going to be similar to tomorrow. really, again, likely to see highs of 32 or 33 before something perhaps cooler by the weekend . cooler by the weekend. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers as proud sponsors of weather on

radio. >> and welcome back to headliners. so the mail now cressida and the rspca are accused of cooking the books when it comes to sunday roasts certainly are. >> the rspca are deluding themselves. fury of meat loving brits after their survey claimed nearly 6 in 10 are ditching roast beef dinners for plant based alternatives as charities accused of cooking stats . so the accused of cooking stats. so the daily mail are very upset about this. they refer to furious britons, but they don't say which ones. there's been any

briton that's made briton that's that's been made aware of the facts. but you think from that headline that there'd counter there'd been another counter study, but there's mention of study, but there's no mention of it the and somebody it. so the rspca and somebody else called the social market foundation some foundation have done some research turns out that research and it turns out that brits are to reduce their brits are trying to reduce their meat consumption. >> but when they say, i mean, i do think there is a certain amount manipulation of data amount of manipulation of data by charities lately in to order steer agenda, certainly. but i haven't encountered this one. but when they about but but when they talk about roasts is that sounds to me roasts that is that sounds to me like are they trying to say people are just not always having a sunday roast or they're having a sunday roast or they're having a sunday roast or they're having a plant based because that's a slightly different thing, it? do you want thing, isn't it? do you want i mean, mention mean, there's a lot of mention of plant products. mean, there's a lot of mention of yeah,ant products. mean, there's a lot of mention of yeah,ant they'reroducts. mean, there's a lot of mention of yeah,ant they'rerodu saying >> yeah, but they're not saying roast. thing is roast. and the other thing is and as you and they're using it, as you said beginning , the rspca said at the beginning, the rspca are in are deluding themselves in quotation doesn't quotation marks, but it doesn't say who said that. it's ridiculous, but no. yeah, as you said, it's slightly open ended questions here. when they say questions here. so when they say that some 58% of people would be supportive government supportive of government subsidies the cost. subsidies to help cut the cost. well, most people would well, i'm sure most people would like food if the

like cheaper food if the government them government would help them out with how did do with that. so how did they do thishas come up to you >> has somebody come up to you in the street and said, you >> has somebody come up to you in thecowszt and said, you >> has somebody come up to you in thecows shouldaid, you >> has somebody come up to you in thecows should have you think cows should have a horrible the horrible time? no what are the questions? happen ? questions? how did this happen? >> well, they're saying the rspca, 60, roughly rspca, they've taken 60, roughly 58% have taken steps to eliminate or reduce their own meat consumption. that is very different from saying we no longer have sunday roast. longer have a sunday roast. absolutely that might very easily like we no longer absolutely that might very easiljlike like we no longer absolutely that might very easiljlike bacon> this could like just even >> this could be like just even thinking or thinking about it is enough or one one that one replacing one meal that doesn't show overall, some great big trend. also, when you see a lot of these food companies, they're inflated value. these vegan products and actually now they're closing them down because buying because people aren't buying them they're too expensive. >> know. knowacouple expensive. >> know. know a couple of >> i know. i know a couple of people heavily in people who invested heavily in in the kind lab grown meat in the kind of lab grown meat projects over the last few years and a lot of money. and lost a lot of money. >> they'll be furious. >> and they'll be furious. britons they the britons as they may be, the furious britons and they might think it? think product isn't it? >> , obviously the >> but the rspca, obviously the rspca are they're concerned is with farming element with the factory farming element . think a lot of

. you know, and i think a lot of people probably with people would probably agree with the rspca that there are concerns about the treatment of animals. course that's a animals. but of course that's a subtly thing. again, subtly different thing. again, to decent meat to the idea that decent meat that grows, you know, that it's pasture and lives a decent life and then one day the action comes down, you know, that's completely. >> yeah. and apparently lots of people would like to see that on packaging as well. >> yes. well an axe. yes, that's see the murder. >> but that's the thing is people of course you want you want and you can sort of want that and you can sort of imagine that. but when you're in the supermarket you're the supermarket and you're going, well, this one's £5 and this more, this one's 7 or £8 or more, you're like, oh, i've you're like, oh, well, i've always because i know. always felt bad because i know. >> i mean, this is a slightly specific issue, know, specific issue, but i do know, for that british for instance, that british farmers, think farmers in farmers, i think pig farmers in particular, have up to particular, have signed up to considerably more spacious , you considerably more spacious, you know, living quarters for pigs and so on than is the predominant in certain other. well, i think denmark , which is well, i think denmark, which is famous for its, you know, its rashes and so on. and you would assume danes were quite an assume the danes were quite an enlightened people. but apparently treat apparently they don't treat their well anyway , i

their pigs very well anyway, i might now, that's might get sued. now, that's probably the one will get probably the one that will get me, me over to the me, not by me over to the telegraph now. josh football , telegraph now. josh football, hypocrisy news and jordan henderson has found a new belief system. >> yes , money. liverpool fans >> yes, money. liverpool fans reject jordan henderson's lgbtq+ apology. so this is the former liverpool captain and he's going out to saudi arabia. he's been offered a load of dosh, fair enough. some footage came out, was released by the saudi arabia of him with his yellow armband , of him with his yellow armband, which is support for lgbt no rainbow rainbow . oh, i see. well rainbow rainbow. oh, i see. well and they've basically blurred it out. yeah. yeah. and a group called three lions pride, which is a sort of on yeah. pride and 3—3 lions or whatever are basically saying that their members are going to turn their back on him and he'sjust back on him and he's just saying, oh, i'm really sorry and whatever, but i just don't think that's going to make a significant impact. his . significant impact. on his. >> made sort of attempt
