3:04 am
tory government is in a state of disrepair. we know that there are huge problems with prisons and prison places in particular, and prison places in particular, and as we've seen, there is now and as we've seen, there is now a terror suspect on the loose, having escaped from wandsworth prison so big questions for the government to answer, frankly , government to answer, frankly, rishi sunak needs to get a grip. >> so keir starmer has claimed cowboys are running the country as he criticised rishi sunaks handung as he criticised rishi sunaks handling of the school's concrete crisis. earlier, he visited one of the many schools which have been ordered to fully or partially close as the new term begins during prime minister's questions, the labour leader accused the government of cutting corners and carrying out botched jobs. but the prime minister responded by saying the government has acted decisively in the face of new information . in the face of new information. the us secretary of state has announced a new package of aid for ukraine worth more than $1 billion or £800 million. it comes on the day 17 people died and dozens more were injured by
3:05 am
and dozens more were injured by a russian missile strike in the east of the country. the attack hit a busy market in the city of kostiantynivka in the donetsk region near the front lines . region near the front lines. hours earlier, anthony blinken paid a surprise visit to kyiv to reaffirm us support for ukraine. >> that includes $665.5 million in new military and civilian security assistance. in total , security assistance. in total, we committed over $43 billion in security assistance since the beginning of the russian aggression in now since i was last here almost exactly one year ago, ukrainian forces have taken back more than 50% of the territory seized by russian forces since february of 2022. and the rolling stones have announced their first album in nearly two decades. >> mick jagger says hackney diamonds will be released on the 20th of october. it will feature guest performances from stevie wonder, lady gaga and also the former stones bass player bill wyman . the surviving trio paid wyman. the surviving trio paid tribute in the press conference

to the band's longtime drummer, charlie watts , who died in charlie watts, who died in august 2021, and his final tracks recorded with the band, will also be on the album , on will also be on the album, on tv, on radio. so this is gb news. now it is back to dan . news. now it is back to dan. so has the government finally tweaked ? tweaked? >> have they realised that we are being hoodwinked by mucky macron into paying france a sickening half £1 billion for them to refuse to stop the invasion of the uk's southern border? i only ask because the immigration minister robert jenrick, a close ally of the prime minister, has finally admitted the french should be intercepting boats before before they reach english waters . just they reach english waters. just like belgium already does, to
3:07 am
deter the people smugglers . of deter the people smugglers. of course, as you know , i don't course, as you know, i don't believe for a single second macron wants to help us stop the boats. the more criminal illegal migrants who leave france and come here, the better for him. that's why french patrol boats regularly assist the overloaded dinghies into our waters before leaving them to be rescued by the rnli . it is a complete and the rnli. it is a complete and utter farce . the slimy french utter farce. the slimy french president who wants an illegal third term, by the way, is laughing at us. hapless brits and our increasingly toothless government which generic finally seemed to concede in this admission to the tory backbencher tim loughton, after the east worthing and shoreham mp asked if we had been paying the wrong country by elevating relations with france to their highest level for many years and doing a great deal of work,
3:08 am
there is clearly more that we need them to do for us. >> i visited belgium recently, met with the belgian interior minister and the approach that they have taken has been extremely helpful. they've worked very closely with the national crime agency, with border force, with policing in the uk. and with respect to the small boats leaving their shores , they've been willing to intercept the boats in the water. that's proven decisive and now small boats are extremely rare from belgian waters. so that is an approach that we would like to encourage the french to follow . the french to follow. >> well, i'm sorry to be so blunt, minister, but if you know that, then why the hell are we still sending half a billion to france, which has now taken us for fools on the international stage ? farage i'm angry about stage? farage i'm angry about this because belgium stops about 90% of the boats. france well, less than 50. even today that is funded mentally wrong. and i am
3:09 am
so heartily sick of the government knowing the answers. but lacking the will or the guts to implement the appropriate action required . and why? oh action required. and why? oh because the globalists might kick up a stink , but who cares? kick up a stink, but who cares? this current approach is to going lose you. the election in a landslide lied while you inflict social and economic problems on our struggling society for a further decade , society for a further decade, especially now, the government is being told it's going to have to find £2 billion from somewhere. if it can't keep using the foreign aid budget to pay using the foreign aid budget to pay to house the illegal migrants in hotels is to respond. now, my superstar panel respond. now, my superstar panel, the author and broadcaster christine hamilton, the businessman and activist adam brooks, and the former labour party adviser matthew lanza. labour party adviser matthew lanza . christine, i am so lanza. christine, i am so furious about this. you can probably tell because robert jenrick has now admitted add what we have been saying for a very long time, which is that of course france should be
3:10 am
intercepting the boats and taking them back to shore. they are not. belgium is. so why the heck are we giving france half £1 billion not to stop the boats? well i mean, don't ask me. >> i don't know the answer to that. but said, we should that. but as you said, we should be belgium the money. be giving belgium the money. france, let's give france a little credit, we? little bit credit, shall we? they've apparently put on a few more now. they've more patrols now. they've introduced drones and more patrols now. they've inlittle:ed drones and more patrols now. they've inlittle bit drones and more patrols now. they've inlittle bit of drones and more patrols now. they've inlittle bit of additionalrones and more patrols now. they've inlittle bit of additional radar and a little bit of additional radar technology wait for it, technology and wait for it, they've introduced some beach buggies. oh, that's going to that's to going make all the difference. fundamental difference. but the fundamental trouble i mean, decrease, trouble i mean, the decrease, christine, by as christine, by the way, as a result of that tiny. christine, by the way, as a res|it's>f that tiny. christine, by the way, as a res| it's tiny. t tiny. >> it's tiny. >> it's tiny. >> of it is. they >> of course it is. they basically done nothing. and but the trouble don't want the trouble is, they don't want to has no to do anything. macron has no interest helping interest whatsoever in helping us. he is so furious about brexit. et cetera. et cetera. he's also fuming because you said he wants a third term. he can't have a third term. he's stamping his foot. he's not allowed to have term. he allowed to have a third term. he hasn't needs to be hasn't got. he needs to be a little dictator like siddiq does. and he hasn't got a majority. if we had two majority. if only we had a two term the well, term limit for the london well, wouldn't that be great? but he
3:11 am
hasn't got majority that in hasn't got a majority in that in the national assembly. he hasn't got it. you know, he's pretty impotent. he's furious impotent. and so he's furious with but yes , we should get with us. but yes, we should get out of the european court, i think. and the and the echr, by the way , in that same address. the way, in that same address. >> yet again, didn't rule out. well i think, christine, of just the government not ruling it out. that's not enough. >> now, of course it isn't. but i think they're waiting for the supreme court decision. and i think the supreme court decision will rule rwanda is will rule that rwanda is illegal. i think just illegal. then i think they just might act it. but i mean, the french are just un unbelievable. all they have to do is, by the way, before i get on to the french, let's leave the french. never mind generic actually says that he has reduced the number of by 20. they're bigger of boats by 20. they're bigger boats, so it makes no difference . and he seems to think that having reduced it by 20% is the answer to our problems. i mean, no, it's not. they're just overloaded and bigger. >> i mean, adam brooks, the french excuse us. and let's be honest about this. it is an
3:12 am
excuse what they say. the reason why they can't intercept the boats turn back around, boats and turn them back around, as they are worried as they say, they are worried that illegal migrants on that the illegal migrants on board cause harm to board might cause harm to themselves, might throw themself overboard and refuse to be rest i >> -- >> why 5mm >> why don't why don't they rescue them at the end of the day, our boats are effectively running a taxi service for illegal migrants. running a taxi service for illegal migrants . yes, people illegal migrants. yes, people that admit that they're coming here for a better life . you here for a better life. you know, while we've got people in poverty and struggling, you know, running out of hotels to put these people , we are put these people, we are effectively running a taxi service for illegal migrants. now, france, it's not just that they don't like us and they don't want to help us. they do not want tens of thousand of these people in france . no. on these people in france. no. on their coastline. they would run their coastline. they would run their town for that. >> leave france. the better for the french. >> let's remember, we've ignored the echr before any prime minister. this is a war footing. this is a crisis , an emergency. this is a crisis, an emergency. any pm with with a set of, you know, what would turn around and
3:13 am
say, i want these migrants towed back to the french beaches. >> if he did that, it's also possible. >> but if he did that, he would jump >> but if he did that, he would jump 5 to 10 points in the polling overnight because the angeris polling overnight because the anger is so strong. but this is what i struggle with. >> matthew laser i feel like rishi sunak has accepted defeat. well after 13 years of tory failure , yes, he has. failure, yes, he has. >> there is a defeat because, you know, ten years ago i made a documentary when the tories wanted to leave the echr and ten years later it's still, as you say, it's still floated as a possibility . and as adam says, possibility. and as adam says, frankly, it's not even about leaving the echr because you can ignore the decisions the ignore the decisions of the court. every british court. the every british government of every colour has ignored on giving votes ignored them on giving votes to prisoners. rwanda is a prisoners. so and rwanda is a smokescreen because it's only ever going to 500 1000 ever going to for be 500 to 1000 people it's a et—cetera i >> -- >> adam it's a you might be, but we a proper we need a we need a proper we need a proper deal our european proper deal with our european partners. denied that. it's partners. has denied that. it's only for that amount of people.
3:14 am
>> but the bigger point is we can't any because can't afford any more because we're pay so much per we're having to pay so much per person as the planes take off, then the smuggling gangs person as the planes take off, then toh smuggling gangs person as the planes take off, then toh goodness uggling gangs person as the planes take off, then toh goodness me, ing gangs person as the planes take off, then toh goodness me, we're|ngs person as the planes take off, then toh goodness me, we're not think, oh goodness me, we're not going to get the same amount of business.think the yielded to >> but i think the yielded to the the belgians effectiveness. >> know, is not >> and you know, belgium is not you a coalition you know, it's a coalition government of lots of different parties. it's not like it's a particular friend of sunak and the tories has made has made clear action. so if we had a proper statesman charge, proper statesman in charge, who would with would do a proper deal with macron being laughed macron and stop being laughed at? a little bit like keir at? it's a little bit like keir star. yes . because a star. absolutely, yes. because a government that's taken seriously our countries are a statesman. angelina's brilliant and is going to be a great deputy prime minister yes. been she's not the one. after dinner with angela, with other people. >> i it actually quite >> and i found it actually quite pleasant and nice. and she spoke a but she's not a lot of sense. but she's not the affairs the foreign affairs spokesperson. want running spokesperson. i want her running thisshe's a bit of colour. >> she's a bit of colour. >> she's a bit of colour. >> let's just remember, >> anyway, let's just remember, they these migrants they sorely need these migrants are not poor people. are not they're not poor people. they're come they're paying thousands to come over here. if i'm if i'm over here. yeah. if i'm if i'm paying over here. yeah. if i'm if i'm paying thousands to come over here and suddenly i'm
3:15 am
here and i know suddenly i'm going towed straight back going to be towed straight back and wasted and i'm and i've wasted my money and i'm going think twice about doing going to think twice about doing one things need one of the key things we need these one of the key things we need the so definition , an if >> so by definition, an if they're on those boats, they are illegal migrants. this is rubbish keep rubbish for people to keep talking about. you know, refugees , etcetera. they refugees, etcetera. they wouldn't be that boat if they were. >> but one of key things, >> but one of the key things, one the key things the one of the key things the belgian government does when people off people are, you know, taken off their back in belgium is their boats back in belgium is it mobile and it it takes mobile phones and it looks at the data and it looks for to trace the people smugglers. we're not doing that. when people arrive here, people just and sit just keep their phones and sit in in ipswich or in the hotels in ipswich or plymouth or wherever they are just playing mobile just playing on their mobile phones. government could phones. so the government could be want be tougher and it doesn't want to it know talks doesn't deliver. >> do you know how we could stop this we made the people this if we made all the people that put some that made the dinghies put some sort traceable there sort of traceable chip in there or so know who's or whatever. so we know who's buying them they are . you buying them where they are. you know, we could not. >> they're not reusable. >> sorry. they're not reusable. they're just one use dinghies, but they get but you can't they don't get sent back. >> e come >> make them come from a traceable chip in every dinghy. >> this could stop. >> and this could stop. >> and this could stop.

on this now, i'm joined by the bofis on this now, i'm joined by the boris supporter annunziata rees—mogg , the author ali milani rees—mogg, the author ali milani , and the writer and broadcaster anna mae mangan. so annunziata , anna mae mangan. so annunziata, uh, this was a terrible decision, wasn't it? by the conservative party in hindsight , when you look at where they are now in the polls as the polls are not encouraging , i polls are not encouraging, i think it was a terrible decision by the mps to override the british public and their own membership and they decided behind closed doors that they didn't want boris anymore . didn't want boris anymore. >> they didn't ask the people they took no notice of what the members might or might not have wanted and got rid of boris. they then immediately got rid of liz truss because the membership made the wrong decision and we got rishi by default. i think he's got to do a lot of work to rebuild the trust that was destroyed by that , you
3:23 am
destroyed by that, that, you know, people didn't choose him initially and he's got to prove he worthy of it and that's he was worthy of it and that's hard to do. he's making strides in the right direction with the economy . let's hope that there's economy. let's hope that there's a room for people all across the country to feel the benefits of that. otherwise, the election's not looking great for him now, ali moeen ali, you're fascinating sitting in this because as you stood against bofis because as you stood against boris johnson , you ran for the boris johnson, you ran for the labour party in the uxbridge constituency in 2019. >> so you know how popular boris is with voters. i mean, that must have been really difficult running against him. i mean, actually, didn't the tories do your party, the biggest favour ever by booting such a fabulous popular leader ? popular leader? >> well, i think it's important that we don't rewrite history. >> when boris johnson left office. look, the thing is, as i've learned, politicians will often look after their job first. and i think the reaction of getting boris out of office
3:24 am
was a result of the fear of the polls. let's not forget, boris was calamitous in the polls. by the end of his reign. no, it was really nosedive . really a nosedive. >> ali. no, no, no, no, no, no. n-s— >> ali. no, no, no, no, no, no. it's not an ali. we've got opinion. >> people can go check the polls. >> no, but i'll just give you i'll just give you the facts. i'll just give you the facts. i'll just give you the facts. i'll just give you the facts on this before deposed, this before he was deposed, because there that because remember, there was that leadership contest that really damaged tories. but leadership contest that really damaged tories . but before damaged the tories. but before he was deposed and boris was between four and five points behind the labour party and actually in mid—term , that's actually in mid—term, that's a pretty good place to be. look at how far behind they are now. >> i mean, if we remember where when partygate really kicked off the nosedive in the polls from bofis the nosedive in the polls from boris johnson is what shook conservatives to the bone. and that's the result. i think we saw in them getting rid of boris johnson. >> everyone would have realised that partygate was a witch that partygate was just a witch hunt stitch up. harley, hunt and a stitch up. harley, come on, you don't give a about party, do you? really? >> listen , i want you to listen
3:25 am
>> listen, i want you to listen to me very, very carefully. i lost my father as a result of covid. my dad died as a result of yes of this? yes >> lost a relative as a result >> i lost a relative as a result of well. it's a terrible of it. as well. it's a terrible thing. >> t- @ families, when >> and when families, when families tuned into families like myself tuned into the when i couldn't see the tv, when i couldn't see my mum, coronavirus, mum, when she had coronavirus, when my own when i couldn't attend my own father's we found father's funeral, when we found out that the prime minister of this country, been this country, who had been telling at home, telling people to stay at home, who had been telling people not to been to interact, who'd been telling people facetime people like myself to facetime into my father's funeral, were holding parties. in number ten, he at that moment, whether he wasn't at those liberals, was he 7 wasn't at those liberals, was he ? well, i've got i've got pictures of him at those parties alongside rishi sunak. and the privileges committee found that he parliament he had misled parliament as a result. party, ali. >> ali, we've got to be careful about this as a party that party. let's just be clear that that party where rishi sunak also received a fixed penalty nofice also received a fixed penalty notice , it was a surprise for notice, it was a surprise for bofis notice, it was a surprise for boris johnson in the middle of the day on the bloke's birthday , which had been arranged by his wife when he ate some dry
3:26 am
sandwiches and had a in the midst of wine in the midst of one of the worst pandemics. not a party, not a party. >> i just want us to stick to the police. correct. i mean, it's the fact is they received a fixed penalty notice notice. >> but so did rishi sunak side. rishi sunak , anna mae mangan, rishi sunak, anna mae mangan, who do you agree with this? who do you agree with on this? annunziata ali? annunziata or ali? >> i can't believe that you're saying party. .there saying it's not a party. .there are many people who died with are so many people who died with relatives who were looking at them or them through the window or having to them die on having to listen to them die on the phone. >> disgraceful. >> disgraceful. >> i love to have a party. >> i would love to have a party. >> i would love to have a party. >> that's disgraceful. but >> anna. that's disgraceful. but those rules should those lockdown rules should never in place. and never have been in place. and i fought them and i can fought against them and i can tell that you're one of the deaf, dumb and blind followers of boris johnson . of boris johnson. >> wouldn't what he >> it wouldn't matter what he did because himself said, oh, did because he himself said, oh, no, it was trump, wasn't it, who said that he could murder someone in york and get away with it? this is you being a devotee boris . devotee of boris. >> he a busted flush. he >> he is a busted flush. he wrecked it for you. >> and do you what? i'm to >> and do you know what? i'm to going tell you voted for going tell you now? i voted for him. i'm voting labour.

3:28 am

3:50 am
this is still a shocking move because we were led to believe that montecito was where they'd created their life . you know, created their life. you know, this mansion with the 16 bathrooms, that was their dream home. and, you know, had the palm tree that was shaped as a love and they never love heart. and they never wanted to leave . now they want wanted to leave. now they want to in malibu . that very to be in malibu. that is very close to hollywood. >> i don't think harry wants to be malibu. they went and be in malibu. they went and spent a short time in los angeles. he hated he doesn't angeles. he hated it. he doesn't want be celebrities and want to be with celebrities and i think that's quite a statement for megan. >> megan, like it or lump it because we've been seeing them really hanging out and upping their a—list exposure over the last week . last week. >> they were at the beyonce concert. meghan actually went twice. you know, she was posing with celebrities like kerry washington . washington. >> he was absolutely >> if his if he was absolutely more depressed than he's ever been. >> but then he went the >> but then he went to the football the night, didn't football the next night, didn't he? lots of he? yes. with lots of celebrities . again, see celebrities. again, to see lionel play . lionel messi play. >> yeah, he behaved like a baby, didn't he? was sulking on the first day. then the next

4:34 am
actually know the moment when a tide starts to turn. do you just suddenly realise it has? suddenly realise that it has? i think the tide will have turned when something like that doesn't make because you know, make headlines because you know, everybody who needs to will have apologised. but it's like the flat earthers, you know, in days gone by there are a number of people, who people, loads of people who thought was flat. thought that the earth was flat. they believe the earth they couldn't believe the earth was slowly they all was round. and slowly they all came round to realisation came round to the realisation that they wrong the that they were wrong and the earth round. think the earth was round. and i think the tide now. you can't tide is turning now. you can't put a percentage on because put a percentage on it because one of the problems is i mean you mentioned what had happened one of the problems is i mean you menticlinehan.t had happened one of the problems is i mean you menticlinehan.t ha marriagead to graham linehan. his marriage has . i mean, he has been destroyed. i mean, he has been destroyed. i mean, he has just been so amazing. >> his fortunes gone, his fortune, his job. >> i mean, he's lost everything. he's lost everything . what he he's lost everything. what he wanted do is his comedy wanted to do is his comedy career appalling. career. it's been appalling. and he stuck to his guns. he has stuck to his guns. >> but then i guess you see people normal people are people sorry, normal people are afraid put their head above afraid to put their head above the parapet that because the parapet like that because they to graham they see what happens to graham and that and they don't want that to happen own life. happen in their own life. >> well, course, adam, and >> well, of course, adam, and especially the thing especially because the thing

4:37 am
development, okay. it's a very interesting deve look, ant, okay. it's a very interesting develook,3nt, tory okay. it's a very interesting develook,3nt, tory nick)kay. now look, the tory mp, nick fletcher, for a fletcher, has called for a minister for men to be created within the government that would mirror the existing cabinet role for impassioned for women and impassioned fletcher made the case for the new ministerial post on the beeb's women's hour yesterday. >> watch from doncaster and i see an awful lot of young boys and young men out there with little aspiration an and life's not giving them the best opportunities and they tend to be neglected by by lots of people within the authority and also government as a whole. >> we need to we need to be addressing this. so adam brooks, you're really passionate about this. >> you think it does need to be a minister? >> it does. if there's one for women, there should be one for men. at the of the day, men. at the end of the day, we've got our own struggles. you know, suicide for men know, the suicide rate for men is like i think it's is something like i think it's 73. men are the suicides, homelessness. about 80% of homelessness. it's about 80% of homelessness. it's about 80% of homeless are men. we have homeless people are men. we have our own problems as a family

4:39 am
shadow for women's shadow minister for women's health. certainly health. i think we certainly need men's health as need one for men's health as well men's well because a lot of men's health neglected. health issues are neglected. so i think there's there's a fine balance. >> matthew adam brooks, >> matthew laterza, adam brooks, christine hamilton, do by christine hamilton, do stand by because year to because coming up, one year to the she first claimed the day since she first claimed the day since she first claimed the the the top job was liz truss, the best prime minister, we never had. really properly best prime minister, we never had.right. really properly best prime minister, we never had.right. she really properly best prime minister, we never had.right. she was.y properly best prime minister, we never had.right. she was there,erly best prime minister, we never had.right. she was there, but had right. she was there, but all brief . my superstar all too brief. my superstar panel will debate when they panel will debate that when they nominate greatest nominate tonight's greatest britain but britain in union jackass. but next diana's next in uncanceled has diana's brother, earl spencer, lifted the lid again on on the bbc's alleged cover up of its infamous martin bashir interview. well, paul burrell was butler friend and confidant to diana at the time of that explosive sit down. he'll reveal exactly what went down. plus we've got paul's rankings for the first year of every every major member of the royal family paul burrell, live. don't go anywhere , because we're don't go anywhere, because we're back in
4:42 am
is where britain's top commentators speak out on controversial issues without the fear of the cancel culture sweeping the rest of the media. now, dr. comments detailing an alleged cover up at the bbc over the martin bashir interview with princess diana for panorama are to be passed to the crown prosecutor service. a tribunal has heard the filmmaker andrew webb questioned whether the broadcaster had committed a criminal offence after his freedom of information requests were blocked and said an unnamed mp had passed the information to the dpp and the director of pubuc the dpp and the director of public prosecutions , max hill. public prosecutions, max hill. now princess diana's brother, earl spencer, yesterday refuted claims he conspired with bashir to convince his sister to accept the notorious panorama interview in 1995. simply replying to that accusation saying, no, i did not. well, one man who was there at the time and he witnessed firsthand the turmoil diana went through is her former butler and the man she described as her rock , burrell. paul , rock, paul burrell. so paul, whose side are you on in all of
4:43 am
this? earl spencer's or the bbc? he . he. >> well, dan , you have to >> well, dan, you have to remember, this is way back. >> and diana was being marginalised by the royal family and she wanted her voice to be heard. and she went quite innocently to martin bashir to give this interview to him . give this interview to him. >> drama was a heavy weight program on the bbc. >> she knew she would be taken seriously by that program, but it was a rather strange situation. >> a she didn't know originally that martin bashir would be hosting the program until the earl spencer introduced her to martin bashir. earl spencer introduced her to martin bashir . and so there's martin bashir. and so there's a grey area for diana. thought it was rather interesting to go in the back door of the bbc and not negotiate with the then chairman , marmaduke hussey, who was
4:44 am
married to the queen's senior lady in waiting. lady susan hussey. so what diana was doing was she was doing a deal without the establishment knowing that deal should have been done by the chairman of the bbc, not by a producer or a director. so i think the, the bbc have a question to answer. the captain of the ship was marmaduke hussey. he should have known about this particular interview going through. it was the most sensational interview of the day and i believe you know that the bbc took advantage of a princess who was hurting, wounded, who was then suffering with mental illness. we didn't know about mental illness in those days, but i think she was taken advantage of by many people. and i'd think that should be investigated , ed, because what investigated, ed, because what she did was was the beginning of the end of her association with the end of her association with the royal family. the minute she
4:45 am
did that interview , the did that interview, the drawbridge came up and she was excluded from the royal family. after she'd done the interview, she said to me , i wish i hadn't. she said to me, i wish i hadn't. i wish i she said to me, i wish i hadn't. iwish i hadn't she said to me, i wish i hadn't. i wish i hadn't said much. she said to me, i wish i hadn't. i wish i hadn't said much . what i wish i hadn't said much. what will my boys think or what will the country think? what will the queen? >> and of course , william . yeah, >> and of course, william. yeah, william is still very upset about it, but has forgiven his mother. of course, he blames the bbc. but look, i want to tell you what the bbc barrister said, because, you know, we give both sides of the story always here on gb news paul . so this was on gb news paul. so this was jason pobjoy, who said the bbc does accept and has accepted that mistakes were made in this case, particular in dealing with the initial request. i want to apologise again on behalf of the bbc for these errors. notwithstanding these mistakes. the bbc's position that these was mistakes made in good faith. but look, paul, i want to move on because tapes on because new audio tapes of princess personal princess diana's most personal memories will feature in an
4:46 am
upcoming disney+ series documenting her extraordinary life with snippets revealed on abc's good morning america . abc's good morning america. >> this morning, we're hearing an exclusive listen . an exclusive listen. >> my husband won't even talk to mommy. >> barely because at harry's christening, >> barely because at harry's christening , charles went >> barely because at harry's christening, charles went up to mommy and said, you know, he was so disappointed. we thought it would be a girl and mommy snapped his head off and said, you should realise how lucky you are to have child. that's normal. >> it's the late princess diana in own words. in her own words. >> ever since that day , shutters >> ever since that day, shutters come down and that's what he does when he gets somebody answering back at him, so to speak. >> now, paul, i know that's difficult for you because you haven't in very long haven't listened in a very long time, did once keep time, but you did once keep those your loft those tapes safe in your loft before they were taken in a raid by police. so how do you feel about commercial release about their commercial release all years on? all these years on? >> i'm very upset about it, and it's very upsetting to hear the princess's voice. 26 years or
