9:06 pm
party's shadowy national policy forum report says this radical exploitation of teenage voters would ensure young people feel empowered and can fully engage in our democratic process , which in our democratic process, which is laughable given the party won't allow 16 and 17 year olds to get married and have a drink or even smoke. but cipri starmer simply shrugs off the attempt to rig the electorate as some sort of minor labour policy change and enough babies they can work , they can join the army. >> so there are big things you can do at 16 and 17. and again, it's not such an outlandish idea in in wales it already happens in in wales it already happens in scotland. it already happens i >> -- >> but this decision is so consequential and fundamental to our entire democratic process. there's no way it should be dismissed as an internal labour
9:07 pm
debate. after all, the voting age has remained in place since 1970, when it was lowered from age 21. you all know the snp long ago lowered the age in scotland to 16 for gerrymandering purposes, including in the referendum over separatism in 2014, where 75% of the age group were were convinced to vote, defying all expectations, labour has also extended the policy into wales, which it controls . but even which it controls. but even former senior figures within labour are disgusted by starmer's political opportunism. senior labour mp graham stringer said most youngsters at 16 are not mature enough to exercise that right. i'm afraid that with a labour leader to put this forward, it would smack of party political self—interest on the bafis political self—interest on the basis that young people are more likely to vote labour or liberal democrat than conservative lviv ex—labour minister tom harris, who has now quit the party, added this is just gerrymandering , pure and simple.
9:08 pm
gerrymandering, pure and simple. starmer's position, by the way, polar opposite to that of the republican presidential candidate vivek ramaswamy , who candidate vivek ramaswamy, who wants to strip anyone under 25 with the right to vote out and just think about the sort of hysteria that will be inflicted upon us all when 16 year olds like this one start making you have decisions as . you have have decisions as. you have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. >> yet it i'm one of the lucky ones. how dare you . the big ones. how dare you. the big wilkenfeld this little george, you can shove your climate crisis up your. >> you can shove your climate crisis up your hours. >> we say no more, blah blah blah . blah. >> so protest all you want. like that little weirdo. greta kids,
9:09 pm
you'll learn a lot, but you've got to become an adult to vote . got to become an adult to vote. labour under starmer must not be allowed to shrink childhood for selfish political purposes , but selfish political purposes, but to respond. now my superstar panel to respond. now my superstar panel, the columnist and media personality carol mcgiffin gb news, senior political commentator nigel nelson and the former brexit party mep belinda de lucy . belinda, former brexit party mep belinda de lucy. belinda, i former brexit party mep belinda de lucy . belinda, i cannot de lucy. belinda, i cannot believe that slippery starmer has just literally tried to slip this announcement in no debate, no discussion with the wider public. this is an outrage . public. this is an outrage. >> after all, labour had to do to win the next election is to be quiet. and then they open their mouths. and these are the policies we get that are insane . they're they're ludicrous. giving children the vote for so, so many reasons. giving children the vote for so, so many reasons . and how so many reasons. and how embarrassing for a party lacking so much confidence in their own policies to persuade adults that they have to start targeting
9:10 pm
children, children who have not fully developed mental lee yet children who are easily manipulated, easily influenced . manipulated, easily influenced. i live in a house full of teenagers . i live in a house full of teenagers. dan we i live in a house full of teenagers . dan we have teenagers teenagers. dan we have teenagers over all the time. i love them to pieces. i respect them. they're brilliant. but my god, i would never give them the vote. they're more likely to vote for a manifesto of free airpods and free tickets to taylor swift than they to take a than they are to take a manifesto seriously. and secondly cruel is it secondly, see, how cruel is it to project the divisions of aduu to project the divisions of adult politics, especially the nastiness from the left towards anyone who doesn't vote like they do onto children. let teenagers live their teen lives and stop eroding child hood. >> i mean, nigel nelson, this is gerrymandering, political gerrymandering. >> no, because you can't gerrymander on the basis of age groups. and if it was, then we should perhaps ban over 65 seconds from voting because the majority of them vote. tory, do you think a 16 year old is ready to make that decision? yes, because we allow them to make other decisions that are the
9:11 pm
equivalents of that. they can be a company director. they pay income tax, they can change their name to pub and order their name to a pub and order a been their name to a pub and order a beer. they can't go. >> so are you talking about also reducing the drinking age? >> well, i mean, the question then down smoking age. then comes down to smoking age. if you decide marriage, if if you decide in marriage, if you age of you decide, well, the age of marriage so that's marriage is now 18. so that's what mean. yeah. what i mean. yeah. >> so surely if you're considering lowering the voting age, also say that i think age, you'd also say that i think you have look look at you have to look at and look at what things then i mean if what other things then i mean if you decide a 16 year old is an adult, they should make adult decisions and therefore have similar adult rights . similar adult rights. >> so, for instance, the driving age would have to come down. but there areas where could there are areas where you could labour proposing do labour isn't proposing to do that. no, mean, we're talking that. no, i mean, we're talking about here we're not about voting here and we're not talking anything talking about doing anything else. be very worried, else. i would be very worried, for if 16 year olds for instance, if 16 year olds were treated as adults and ended up an adult prison , that up in an adult prison, that to me be completely wrong. so me would be completely wrong. so there are certain things, but you them be able to vote you want them to be able to vote your boys in. think that. your boys in. i think that. well, not it's not
9:12 pm
well, it's not it's not necessarily my fault. >> what this is about. >> that's what this is about. >> that's what this is about. >> it's not about that. >> i mean, it's not about that. it's not about gerrymandering. they different way. they may vote a different way. they may vote a different way. they in their own they have a stake in their own future . they should be allowed future. they should be allowed to vote the 100th, the to vote for the 100th, the 100,000 in scotland who voted for the referendum . the for the referendum. the independence referendum . they independence referendum. they showed how politically engaged they were. so i would trust the decisions to were 16 year old if i was very politically engaged at 16. >> but i was also incredibly politically naive. and i think it would have been very irresponsible to give me the vote. i think it's great that i was engaged. i, i used to engage with all of the political parties, but actually i needed that time to develop my political ideology and also just enjoy life. well exactly. >> and also , i think most 16 >> and also, i think most 16 year olds are not working. >> i think one mp today said that the all 16 year olds, a lot of 16 year olds are paying tax. they're working . they deserve to they're working. they deserve to have a right in to say what
9:13 pm
happensin have a right in to say what happens in our country and the thing is, they don't, though, because a they keep saying there's no jobs for 16 year olds. they have to stay at school till they're 18. i think, and then they up at and then they end up at university. they're university. and so they're constantly being indoctrinated by the education system, which means that they don't really stand a chance to think for themselves. they don't teach kids how what to think, how to think. they teach them what to think. they teach them what to think. and i just think that i think. and i just think that i think labour are being pretty sure of themselves. if they i think they might be underestimate a lot of young people actually, because i think a of young people are not a lot of young people are not interested politics. another interested in politics. another a lot of young people are definitely not interested in labour and if they're not interested, what are labour to going them you going do? offer them like, you know, mcdonald's? know, free mcdonald's? >> yes, but they are. >> well, yes, but they are. >> well, yes, but they are. >> but that's my concern . but >> but that's my concern. but but my concern. the bribe but that's my concern. the bribe theory is going to be off the scale because we know what 16 year olds are like by all sides.
9:14 pm
>> i mean , if you're talking >> i mean, if you're talking talking about how you capture the 16 year old vote, nigel, out of the 16 bit, the tories do the same. >> yeah, but but nigel. >> yeah, but but nigel. >> nigel is going to be like the vast majority of teachers in our schools are left wing. >> there is political indoctrination going on too on. i know that because my kids have all been in school and they come out with as carol quite rightly said, being taught what to think and not how to think . give them and not how to think. give them and not how to think. give them a outside of left wing a chance outside of left wing indoctrination in the classroom about education. about the education. >> saying. but most >> no, i am saying. but most many polls, many surveys have done this. >> most teachers vote left wing parties for left wing parties. and unfortunately , there is not and unfortunately, there is not that kind of supervision in the classroom that allows freedom of thought. so i'll give you one example. my daughter is in a classroom teacher said classroom and the teacher said to hands up, who to the classroom, hands up, who votes hands up, who votes votes tory, hands up, who votes labour? the labour, the labour? and when the labour, the girls labour girls that voted labour put their up, said, at their hands up, she said, at least there are a few compassionate girls in the classroom. this is what teachers do. this happens. outrage classroom. this is what teachers dlabour happens. outrage classroom. this is what teachers
9:15 pm
dlabour wants1s. outrage classroom. this is what teachers dlabour wants 1s. get outrage classroom. this is what teachers dlabour wants 1s. get them trage classroom. this is what teachers dlabour wants 1s. get them when . labour wants to get them when they're it does . they're 16. well it does. >> i mean, teachers are not meant get involved in meant to get involved in politics, they do. politics, you know they do. >> children for >> they shame children for having any type of conservative views. they shame them made about because that is not a about that because that is not a bad labour. >> good. >> good. >> yeah. you're a nice person if you're left wing and you're horrid if you have. this has been taught in schools and this is nigel and trust is happening, nigel and trust labour to try and capture them. >> i mean what i'm saying is that to make that as a generalisation across the whole education seems to be education system seems to be going far. teachers are going too far. teachers are actually told they shouldn't do things actually told they shouldn't do thirit's thing it is >> it's one thing doing it is another. nigel and i think we need to have a whole reform reformation of how teachers teach children how to think and not think. because not to what think. because politically, if labour start grabbing children out of schools when they've had a few when they've just had a few years leftist good, years of this leftist good, right they're going right is bad, they're going to be for eternity . be in government for eternity. >> let me put it to you. there's something much bigger play something much bigger at play here, there? and what here, isn't there? and what labour are trying do and this labour are trying to do and this is why starmer, british tends to
9:16 pm
be so moderate, but what they're trying to do after the next election, which let's be honest, they're to win in they're likely to win in a landslide, unfortunately. they're likely to win in a landsthey unfortunately. they're likely to win in a landsthey want tunately. they're likely to win in a landsthey want to lately. they're likely to win in a landsthey want to doely. they're likely to win in a landsthey want to do is what they want to do is guarantee you a lifetime of left wing socialism in this country. and this is one of the main planks behind that. >> i don't think you could ever guarantee it. i mean, democracy is a fickle, kind of them. >> why do they want to change the electoral system? why do they the voting age? >> well, i mean, to change the voting i mean, the same voting is i mean, the same reason i do. i think it's a matter of fairness. and that's 16 year olds should have it. i was persuaded to a young was persuaded to this by a young woman in the youth parliament, and she said, isn't it ridiculous? i can marry my mp , ridiculous? i can marry my mp, have children with my mp, but i can't vote for my mp . and that can't vote for my mp. and that seemed to me a pretty good reason for 16 year olds having the vote. do you not think it undermines the vote? >> it loses gravitas. it makes it meaningless when it becomes part of playground chatter and is given to children. >> course, it's >> you are of course, it's anti—democratic , giving children anti—democratic, giving children
9:17 pm
the vote. >> but how long before >> yeah, but how long before they give to illegal? why they give them to illegal? why not eight year olds? >> year olds? of >> eight year olds? and of course, carol, thing that course, carol, one thing that labour considering, it labour is considering, it doesn't look like they're going to it. to push through with it. >> this is giving eu >> this time is giving eu citizens the vote they need to change. and you have to admit, nigel, they are seriously considering that they are. >> nigel they are seriously considering citizens considering all citizens have the in this country. yeah, the vote in this country. yeah, we're part of the commonwealth. >> why give eu citizens the vote? >> well, because they live here. >> well, because they live here. >> because they're going to vote for labour. >> and no, because they live. they're going to vote for laboun >> f- e get the vote. no, you >> so they get the vote. no, you have to be a citizen to vote, not live here. not just live here. >> you to live here. >> you have to live here. >> you have to live here. >> so no, you have to be citizen. >> they're already a people to vote for for, in local elections because they pay into the system. i'm glad nigel. >> i'm glad because you've opened is really opened up what labour is really blaming be blaming and the kids won't be able tell the difference able to tell the difference anyway because they're all the same. >> labour yeah, exactly. >> labour yeah, exactly. >> saying the same >> they're all saying the same old stuff now. >> carol mcgiffin,

9:19 pm
9:20 pm
9:21 pm
9:22 pm
days from three on . gb news my days from three on. gb news my role masterminds lady colin campbell and phil dampier react to the bombshell new thomas markle interview shortly. >> but first, the fox report with lawrence . and breaking with lawrence. and breaking tonight, the met police have confirmed they've received a sex assault allegation against comedian russell brand dating back to 2003. the incident was said to have taken place in soho in central london. it comes after four women made sexual abuse allegations against him and of course, russell is now an independent youtube and podcast star. between 2006 and 2013, as part of an investigation by the times, the sunday times and channel 4. in a video released on friday ahead of the allegations being published, he strongly denied the claims .
9:23 pm
strongly denied the claims. >> it's this litany of astonishing, rather baroque attacks are some very serious allegations that i absolutely refute . refute. >> uh, but channel 4 still dropped their documentary with these claims the next day . these claims the next day. >> they . he's these claims the next day. >> they. he's grabbing at my underwear pulling it to the side. >> i'm telling him to get off me and he won't get off like holding me up against the wall, pushing himself in me. >> but today, the former bbc star emily maitlis, joined a chorus of conspiracy about brand rhiannon renting himself as a wellness guru more than a decade ago in a bizarre bid to pre—empt damaging claims against him coming out curious that that just when this investigation was starting, he managed this whole kind of personal reinvention towards, you know, wellness and wellness should kind of ring a
9:24 pm
lot of alarm bells in this day and age because it tends to mean conspire. >> ac anti—vax was he getting ready? you know , to sort of, if ready? you know, to sort of, if you like, almost groom his audiences into thinking everything against him was a conspiracy ? conspiracy? >> so lawrence maitlis is having a dig at so—called conspiracy theorists there. but shouldn't she actually be concerned about what is becoming a very dangerous case of trial by social media? >> yeah, you know , there's this >> yeah, you know, there's this very strange cognitive dissonance going on, which is that people say that we're in. and, you know, i appreciate that there is a massive under—reporting of sexual assault in this world and that women are ashamed to come forward. and russell brand is forward. and if russell brand is committed to any of these crimes, then he should fully crimes, then he should pay fully for them. but this idea that an under—reporting of sexual crimes is to going be solved by making a documentary with actresses, playing the parts of people reading out confessions to a newspaper there is going to create in most people's mind any sane person's mind and a sense
9:25 pm
of incredulity because you would say, well, surely if these allegations are a serious as they are , they should have been they are, they should have been taken to the police first and foremost, above anyone else . foremost, above anyone else. >> what do you make of this mate 7 >> what do you make of this mate ? lewis conspiracy. lawrence that brand doesn't actually care about trying to expose big pharma or stop lockdowns or talk about what's really going on in ukraine. this was all a ploy . ukraine. this was all a ploy. >> well, she's not helping, is she? because what she's doing is she's she managed to get anti—vax into it. so now we're all alleged rapists, anti—vaxxers as well. it's the tribalism here is off the charts and the most important thing is if this had been a crime committed, that crime needs to invest, estimated charged and then , you know, the person needs then, you know, the person needs to be put on trial. not not this this social media trial, because he's not going to get a fair trial now, regardless of the situation. and therefore, those of us have been observing
9:26 pm
of us who have been observing the the mainstream media of us who have been observing the behaved ainstream media of us who have been observing the behaved are ;tream media of us who have been observing the behaved are becomingdia of us who have been observing the behaved are becoming even have behaved are becoming even more more anti their narrative that they're spinning towards him. and i say this with absolutely no personal like russell brand at all. i find him irritating and obnoxious, actually. >> yeah. no absolutely no due process . is there any more, process. is there any more, lawrence? just trial by social media and trial by the mainstream media. >> the process is the punishment . and that's the thing that they've done. they they by demanding that we believe the victims , it happened with victims, it happened with christine blasey ford and it was actually one of my big wake ups to my own cancellation was that people were saying, you believe her regardless. like, her regardless. and it's like, no, a million women no, i've met a million women who've about a million who've lied about a million things in same way as i've things in the same way as i've met million men who've lied about a million things. >> on. in >> now, lawrence, moving on. in the of the peckham the aftermath of the peckham race row over the weekend, where you spent time there you spent some time there investigating, what's investigating, seeing what's going tweeted, it's going on, you tweeted, it's strange safe in your strange not feeling safe in your own city. and you said you're ashamed to be british. so having
9:27 pm
spent time in peckham investigating what went on and this blm war between the asian shopkeeper and the black residents, what sparked that reaction from you ? reaction from you? >> well, i think first and foremost, it's when i went there, because i think a lot of there, because i think a lot of the i don't trust the media myself. so i like to go to the place where something's going on.andi place where something's going on. and i went there and i was just listening back to the video that i out of all of the that i put out of all of the signs on the shop, some of which are about the most vile things signs on the shop, some of which are could the most vile things signs on the shop, some of which are could say most vile things signs on the shop, some of which are could say parasitice things you could say parasitic merchants of our community. and as walk past that sign, there as i walk past that sign, there were two people of colour talking about burning down the shop, but they didn't want to burn down the shop in case they killed the person who lived above, who happened to be a person of colour. i then spoke to people a lot in the area and there's been this thing where black people in particular have been told that they are so oppressed and there's no chance that they will succeed in this country , that what happens is it
9:28 pm
country, that what happens is it creates a sort of vengeful entitlement within them and they are saying this horrible racist stuff about asian people and getting asian people out, get them out . get them out, they're them out. get them out, they're saying, and we need to spend our pounds with ourselves . and what pounds with ourselves. and what sadiq khan has done to this city is an absolute appalling travesty. and the man should be ashamed of himself for stoking identity politics in this way. so he's made the black community in london ghetto ize themselves, ourselves to and totally culturally self—isolate from the rest of their fellow british citizens regardless of skin colour, which is what my whole point was that i made originally and ultimately i just and then i got a million death threats for pointing out that if you really genuinely wanted to only spend money in black owned businesses, jamaican black owned businesses , then perhaps the best place to do that was in jamaica. i then received a litany death received a litany of death threats people and threats from people and i thought, you know what, this is my country. i'm proud of my country and i want live in my
9:29 pm

isabel monday to thursdays from . six till 930 . my romance finds . six till 930. my romance finds lady c and phil d on the way. >> first, though, the clash at end one year on from her courageous and pioneering mini—budget. liz truss returned to the spotlight earlier today to the spotlight earlier today to challenge the economic
9:36 pm
establishment. once again hitting out at her successor, rishi sunak, the former pm said he had been captured by the anti—growth coalition and urged her party to deliver tax cuts and quickly look at this. >> i'm having a rather more relaxing september than i did last year. now some people say we were in too much of a rush andifs we were in too much of a rush and it's certainly true that i didn't just try to fatten the pig didn't just try to fatten the pig on market day. i tried to rear the pig , fatten the pig and rear the pig, fatten the pig and slaughter the pig on market day. i confess to that independence. i confess to that independence. i do. i do want to challenge this phrase crash the economy . this phrase crash the economy. the fact is that since i left office, both mortgage rates and gilt rates have gone higher than they were at the time of the mini—budget. so i just think you are repeating a line to take from the labour party , the bbc from the labour party, the bbc repeating a line from the labour party never. >> but with the country in desperate need of economic growth , i'm asking tonight
9:37 pm
growth, i'm asking tonight a simple question who would you prefer running britain's economy? liz truss or rishi sunak down at gbnews.com vote in our poll at gb news on twitter. but to debate this now, i'm joined by ex tory minister edwina currie and our very own superstar panellist belinda de lucy . edwina, you take big issue lucy. edwina, you take big issue with me on this, don't you? so go on. why am i wrong? >> well, you're wrong because whatever liz truss and kwasi kwarteng say they that they were trying to do a year ago. the fact is they were doing almost exactly the opposite because instead of going for growth, they were cutting taxes and increasing public spending . do increasing public spending. do you remember, for example, that they were going to allocate a lot more money to support people for their their bills and cap all their energy bills during the winter that was only funded costs that was only costed for six months, and that was at £60
9:38 pm
billion. the total amount that they were going to give away in that particular budget was upwards of £160 billion. you know, it's absolutely insane. that's why i call her a clown, because she really doesn't understand what she's doing. >> oh, come on, edwina . edwina, >> oh, come on, edwina. edwina, she's anything but a clown. do you not agree, edwina? do you not agree that while she did make some mistakes, which she admitted she admitted that today she admitted that when i was with her and leave for our big special programme, she has admitted making mistakes and too going but you not going fast. but would you not agree the forces against agree that the forces against her, edwina became overpowered , her, edwina became overpowered, saying , well, she created most saying, well, she created most of them by her stupidity. >> my goodness , she's not stupid >> my goodness, she's not stupid , says hang on, dan , you asked , says hang on, dan, you asked me and i'm happy to respond. >> she's not stupid . you can >> she's not stupid. you can call us trust. >> a lot of things. she's not stupid. >> she's just then she just doesn't understand what she was trying to do. mean many, many
9:39 pm
years ago. she was advocating for the abolition of the monarchy and that was pretty stupid too. >> she was a teenager. she did a lot. that's why i don't want 16 year to the vote. year olds to get the vote. >> edwina, because you know, they some silly opinions as they have some silly opinions as teenagers. we can agree teenagers. i'm sure we can agree on belinda do you on that. belinda what do you want to respond to there? so liz truss herself great truss called herself the great disrupter. >> she wanted to challenge the institute groupthink institute national groupthink of our like the our big institutions like the treasury, bank of england , obr. treasury, bank of england, obr. and i think that was that was right. it needed . they all need right. it needed. they all need shaken up a bit. right. it needed. they all need shaken up a bit . they're right. it needed. they all need shaken up a bit. they're hiding in the shadows , terrified of in the shadows, terrified of their own reflection , not their own reflection, not wanting to take any risk. and equating any kind of tax cuts with loss of revenue revenue and running for the hills when quite frankly, liz truss policy on freezing corporation tax was the right one. cambridge based company astrazeneca , who were company astrazeneca, who were about to build a plant in the north—west of england, change their minds to build it in
9:40 pm
ireland, where corporation tax was only 15. because because hunt and rishi reversed liz truss freezing of the corporation tax, we lost belinda. >> i actually wish they had gone further. it emerged in a book over the weekend by the daily telegraph's political editor that jacob rees—mogg of this pansh that jacob rees—mogg of this parish actually put together parish had actually put together a proposal for liz truss and kwasi kwarteng to go to a £0.20 flat tax. now that would have been exciting. and edwina , look, been exciting. and edwina, look, you know i love you, but i put it to you, edwina, you're actually betray saying your conservative principles by supporting high tax hunt and rishi sunak who have put our tax burden at the biggest level since the second world war. how can you say you're a conservative while supporting that sort of regime ? that sort of regime? >> listen, i worked for margaret thatcher quite a long time ago, and she would probably say one of the important things is you've actually got to balance the books. if you're going to spend more, then you're going to
9:41 pm
have to tax more. that's why we're where we're at and we have an enormous public sector. it is bigger than it has been for many, many decades. and actually cutting the public sector would have a very, very good have been a very, very good start. talking about how do start. talking about how to do that. not easy, but i'm that. it's not easy, but i'm sure actually we all probably agree that one of the key things that we're going to have to do is persuade everybody, starting with british but with the british public, but going on every politician going on to every politician from all the political parties and the bank of england and everyone else that we've got to stop being so dependent on stop being quite so dependent on the state. but that's not what liz truss did. >> well, it would have come increasing the spending, it would have come, would have would have come, it would have come she been given more come if she had been given more than before being forced than 49 days before being forced out in an anti—democratic coup by globalist forces who wanted their man in the job. >> edwina their man sunak their man . man. >> that i really don't believe that. >> i'm absolutely certain that they took a look at the budget
9:42 pm
and went, oh my god. not least because if you borrow an enormous extra amount on top of all the extra that we had spent for covid and for the war in ukraine and so on, well, that's where the issue is. >> that's where the issue is. but who was responsible for that? >> rishi sunak. rishi sunak. edwina currie but you know, i love having a spirited debate with you, former tory minister and our very own belinda de lucy, back after ten. lucy, who's back after ten. thank you both so much . but who thank you both so much. but who would prefer running would you prefer running britain's economy? liz truss or rishi sunak? on twitter rishi sunak? phil on twitter says be truss. it's says it has to be truss. it's obvious she was ousted by the globalist i feel globalist and remoaners. i feel sorry her. ah, i could have sorry for her. ah, i could have almost written that email. phil i promise you i didn't. carol on twitter definitely rishi twitter writes definitely rishi truss a liability and truss was a liability and a maggie thatcher wannabe . we are maggie thatcher wannabe. we are well shot of her and her economic policies. and diane writes, truss was ousted before she had a chance to get going. we would be in a totally better position right now if they'd have let her get on with the job at least liz knew what she was
9:43 pm
doing and your verdict is now. and oh my goodness, the global ists are going to be horrified. 77% of you would prefer liz truss to be running britain's economy. yes. yes. what a result. just 23% of you preferring the sunak high tax hunt globalist regime. there you go . coming up, labour's plan to go. coming up, labour's plan to solve the small boats boats crisis already torn apart after slippery starmer refuses to answer how many eu migrants would have to take in in exchange for sending back channel asylum seekers. so our european officials right to brand the role playing pm delusional. superstar panel delusional. my superstar panel will scrap it out shortly. but next, critics reckon prince harry should take note of his own closing speech at the invictus games that called for forgiveness and in the forgiveness and living in the present. so will the duke apply the philosophy to father in the same philosophy to father in law thomas markle, who a law thomas markle, who made a new heartbreaking today new heartbreaking appeal today to estranged children. to see his estranged children. i'll to you. then i'll show it to you. and then lady colin campbell and phil i'll show it to you. and then lady coligivempbell and phil i'll show it to you. and then lady coligive theirll and phil i'll show it to you. and then lady coligive their verdict’hil i'll show it to you. and then

9:48 pm
>> i'm open to any time, but i don't see it coming . she's not don't see it coming. she's not the person i knew as my daughter i >> -- >> do you blame harry for that ? >> do you blame harry for that? >> do you blame harry for that? >> i don't know. i don't know. i've been blamed . her or harry. i've been blamed. her or harry. i've been blamed. her or harry. i i think she had influence on harry more than he does on her. >> so, ladies, see, firstly , >> so, ladies, see, firstly, great to see thomas rich gaining his voice after that stroke that nearly took his life . but nearly took his life. but shouldn't the hypocritical duke apply shouldn't the hypocritical duke apply the same philosophy that he espouse used at the invictus games to his dying and ostracised father in law . ostracised father in law. >> well, of course, harry's not going to apply the same principles to his father in law that he applies to himself and everybody else, because the man is an arch hypocrite. you know, the fact of the matter is,
9:49 pm
thomas markle never did anything wrong at all. thomas markle was set up by, uh , jeff rayner, who set up by, uh, jeff rayner, who is a colleague of meghan's . and is a colleague of meghan's. and everything evolved from that . i everything evolved from that. i think that harry really and meghan both have an absolute nerve the way they have treated their father . their father. >> i think it's inexcusable and i honestly think they are never going to be forgiven by anybody who appreciates decency and all the rhetoric that they can come up with. me is absolutely meaningless because actions speak louder than words. thomas markle has done nothing , markle has done nothing, nothing, nothing to justify being excluded , and i couldn't being excluded, and i couldn't agree more with that . agree more with that. >> should just point out though. jeff rayner the celebrity photographer, denies any wrongdoing . phil dampier it was
9:50 pm
wrongdoing. phil dampier it was heartbreaking, wasn't it, to see thomas barely able to speak, but desperate , just desperate for desperate, just desperate for his daughter to hear his pleas. he doesn't want to sue for access to his grandchildren. he says there is something he could do under american law. he just wants his daughter and his son in law to do the decent thing . in law to do the decent thing. uh, yeah. >> good evening, danny. >> good evening, danny. >> it was. >> it was. >> it was absolutely heartbreaking to watch it. you know, he's still struggling from the stroke. he couldn't speak very well. >> he seemed close to tears at times. >> and you just wonder whether, you something happened you know, if something happened to we've discussed this before. >> we've discussed this before. >> we've discussed this before. >> and meghan >> how would harry and meghan feel? >> i wouldn't like be feel? >> i wouldn't like u feel? >:did,rouldn't like be if feel? >:did, butjn't like be if feel? >:did, but ir't like u feel? >:did, but i was:did, but i was fascinated if feel? >:did, but i was fascinated by if it did, but i was fascinated by that he came out with that that line he came out with that he could actually sue to see his grandchildren californian grandchildren under californian law, he probably law, but he probably just doesn't he want the doesn't want he doesn't want the hassle. i'll tell you one hassle. but i'll tell you one thing that interest me, and thing that did interest me, and i to say, the games were success. >> success. >> i mean, i think we have to say that that to be fair to harry meghan, but i was

harry and meghan, but i was talking to people out in dusseldorf this dusseldorf and apparently this whole them not whole business of them not talking the british press, talking to the british press, that's gone the window how. >> now. >> i think apparently they they obviously sunk obviously realised they've sunk so in people's estimation. so low in people's estimation. >> they now >> apparently they are now engaging so engaging with journalists. so obviously that obviously they've decided that they without press. they can't do without the press. and did get a much better and they did get a much better press last week. >> but if they really had warmth and compassion, they'd they'd get in an suv and drive down and see see thomas, before it's too late . late. >> e- e can't live with them >> typical. can't live with them , can't live without them. when it to the media, i think it comes to the media, i think lady c disagree you, lady c might disagree with you, though, invictus games though, on the invictus games being . success. is that right, being a. success. is that right, lady c you disagree ? lady c you disagree? >> sorry, you need to speak up. the sound is appalling. sorry lady c oh, it's my fault. >> basically . ali phil dampier >> basically. ali phil dampier said he didn't think he did think the invictus games was a success and i don't think you agree with that. lady c, do you ? >> well, my understanding is
9:52 pm
that the invictus games has been presented as being a success. yes. and in some respects , it's yes. and in some respects, it's been a great success for harry and meghan. but behind the scenes there's been a lot of deceit , satisfaction, uh , deceit, satisfaction, uh, certainly in germany amongst the germans. okay >> okay. got it. well, good. good. that we've got both sides of the argument there. okay, good. that we got both sides of the argument. now, look, breaking tonight, prince william has just touched down in new york and said it's good to be back in the usa before visiting a local oyster farm, the prince of wales will use the trip to meet up with world leaders, including the un secretary—general, and will unveil the earthshot prize finalist. now the visit comes as a new time newspaper profile reveals behind the scenes, reveals that behind the scenes, william questioned as many of the ingrained traditions that the ingrained traditions that the royal family has long taken for granted. so ladies, see this is a big trip for william of course, he's made it very clear he's not going to say anything
9:53 pm
about harry to any of the american media. this about american media. this is about him to transform into a him trying to transform into a player . on the world stage. but player. on the world stage. but how do you feel about him wanting to burnish many of the traditions that have made the royal family great over the years? >> f- years? >> think william needs >> well, i think william needs to tread very carefully. you know, if he's not very careful, he will hop onto bandwagons . he will hop onto bandwagons. that might turn out to be injurious to his reputation as a future monarch . i think at the future monarch. i think at the moment he's he's doing soft, softly. and i think he most likely will get it right . but likely will get it right. but i'm not 100% convinced that that he i think his focus is a little bit too narrow . and i get what bit too narrow. and i get what he's about in terms of the big picture. but i really do think he needs to be very careful. well yes, especially phil
9:54 pm

deal with the eu. watch >> let let me just complete on this because there is obviously early an eu , a quota system for early an eu, a quota system for eu member as well. it's obviously not an eu member and we will not know. we will not be part of that. we're not an eu member. >> would you put a limit on the number of well in limits and controls? >> i'm asking you a clear question. >> would a labour government put a limit on the number of migrants that you might be willing to accept in negotiations? >> i'm not sure it will work like that. >> let me tell you the reason i've been so shifty is because starmer plans to open the doors to at least 120,000 migrants a year as part of a reckless migrant return policy with brussels. the eu simply won't take back channel arrivals without it. but even cares bonkers packet proposals have been ridiculed by european diplomats who called starmer quote, delusional . in fact, the quote, delusional. in fact, the labour leader is so off the mark amid his prime ministerial role play amid his prime ministerial role
10:08 pm
play tour that he's also been telling the financial times that he's going to secure a better brexit deal, a new close brexit deal, putting a new close to ties with the eu back on the political agenda and betraying 17.4 million brits in the process . forgive i mean, this is process. forgive i mean, this is unbelievable because sometimes i think starmer thinks he can trick the british public. but the fact that even eu officials who in theory should like the guy, are calling you delusional tells you everything you need to know. right? >> yeah. it's kind of rich coming from them, isn't it, really? but i don't know who he thinks he is. who does he think he is, you know? oh, i'm going to renegotiate the brexit. hang on. we're not in the eu. you can't renegotiate anything. there was no proper deal anyway. i mean, you know, it was all just. but what annoys me the most is why did these politicians keep pretending that they want to stop the they they want to stop the boats. they don't want to stop the boats because if they could stop they could stop stop the boats, they could stop them. say, we're in them. like we say, we're not in them. like we say, we're not in the anymore. they could stop the eu anymore. they could stop
10:09 pm
them they could just stop them or they could just stop facilitating. of course they could stop them trafficking. they literally could stop them with back policy. with a turn back policy. >> nigel, why don't they why are they all so gutless , including they all so gutless, including starmer, including sunak and including macron? >> you. how you >> well, how do you. how do you turn boats back? turn the boats back? >> literally , you turn the boat >> literally, you turn the boat back using the turn back policy . it can be done in international waters . it can be international waters. it can be done completely. >> are no international >> there are no international waters between us and france. so that's your first problem? um, the second problem is if you're using the australian model where they the boats back, they did turn the boats back, they did turn the boats back, they it was 150 miles they distance it was 150 miles was the distance between indonesia and australia. the boats were much bigger. they could do it safely. you start turning little dinghies around in the english channel with with a huge great border force patrol boat and people will die. so practically you can't do that. no, people will throw themselves in the water. >> let's be honest. that is the plan. that is the plan. and then
10:10 pm
they have to be rescued and they will be rescued because the rescue boats will be there . rescue boats will be there. >> i don't think playing with people's lives by throwing them in the water is necessarily a very they will throw themselves in the water. very they will throw themselves in tthat's er. very they will throw themselves in tthat's what i'm saying. >> that's what i'm saying. that's right. >> even provoking them >> but even provoking them to throw themselves in the water. >> but nigel, you do understand many if the many more people will die if the turn which is why turn back policy, which is why which is why need a decent which is why you need a decent a decent returns policy with the eu which is what? it's not going to happen is it? >> well, hang on. we don't know whether going to happen. >> well, hang on. we don't know whe tories going to happen. >> well, hang on. we don't know whe tories have ng to happen. >> well, hang on. we don't know whe tories have comehappen. >> well, hang on. we don't know whe tories have come up pen. >> well, hang on. we don't know whe tories have come up with the tories have come up with this, this 120,000 figure which as proportion of the as a proportion of the population , i actually think it population, i actually think it might be a decent figure. population, i actually think it might bwould cent figure. population, i actually think it might bwould demand re. population, i actually think it might bwould demand double. >> you would demand double. >> you would demand double. >> well, in which case there won't deal. the whole thing won't be a deal. the whole thing here is what is the deal? >> we could send back, you know, 20,000 they've come 20,000 maybe they've come in this and then we take this year and then we take 120,000. that doesn't sound like a very good deal to me. it wouldn't be. >> that's why would never >> and that's why it would never be done. well, exactly. >> so it's not going to happen, belinda. what starmer
10:11 pm
belinda. and that's what starmer and to admit at the and mcfadden had to admit at the weekend. never going to weekend. it is never going to happen.thank weekend. it is never going to happen. thank you, nigel. do you know being know what you're actually being very honest tonight. it's never going happen. going to happen. >> never happen. >> it's never going to happen. >> it's never going to happen. >> to happen. >> it's never going to happen. this the negotiation. this is the negotiation. negotiating eu means negotiating with the eu means submitting they do submitting to the eu. they do not in good faith. not negotiate in good faith. we have burnt years over have been burnt for years over them, in good them, not negotiating in good faith. is an eu created faith. this is an eu created mess . they should have had boats mess. they should have had boats in mediterranean you in the mediterranean. you talk about we break about oh, we can't break international law. these international treaties were signed ruins of the world signed in the ruins of the world war two. they are not fit for purpose. now the world is on the move. smugglers are facilitating them. we're in a different world. we need to. which is, by the way, rectify those treaties. >> even lord sumption, former supreme says supreme court justice, says we must leave the eu and we can must now leave the eu and we can turn we can get turn the boats back, we can get smaller vessels and safely take these people back the safety these people back to the safety of france. >> i would do in a heartbeat >> i would do it in a heartbeat and it would stop them. and we could help women children. could help women and children. people saved the people would be saved in the long exactly. stop blaming long run. exactly. stop blaming the british taxpayers should have in the eu's mess.

christys on gb news. i'm gb news radio . fleece legend kelvin radio. fleece legend kelvin mackenzie be uncancelled on starmer's socialist dystopia shortly. >> but time now for neil oliver. and breaking tonight, the met police have confirmed they've received a sex assault allegation against comedian russell brand, dating back to central london's soho district in 2003. it comes after four women made separate sexual abuse allegations against brad. now an independent youtube and podcast . star. between 2006 and 2013 as part of an investigation by the times, the sunday times and channel 4 brand strongly denied the claims on friday. >> hey, it's this litany of astonishing , rather baroque
10:20 pm
astonishing, rather baroque attacks are some very serious allegations that i absolutely refuse it. >> channel 4 still broadcast . >> channel 4 still broadcast. >> channel 4 still broadcast. >> he's grabbing at my underwear , pulling it to the side. i'm telling him to get off me and he won't get off. i'm like holding me up against the wall, pushing himself in me. i listened to the mainstream media response from emily maitlis today. >> curious that that just when this investigation was starting, he managed this whole kind of personal reinvention towards, you know, wellness and wellness should kind of ring a lot of alarm bells in this day and age because it tends to mean conspiracy. anti—vax was he getting ready, you know, to sort of , if you like, getting ready, you know, to sort of, if you like, almost groom his audiences into thinking everything against him was a conspiracy . conspiracy. >> so, neil, here we go for
10:21 pm
another trial by mainstream media and social media for your thoughts . thoughts. >> oh, well, i honestly don't know where to begin except to say that you have to have due process as the only protection for everyone and the only the only way in which all sides of stories are represented properly is to have, you know , the due is to have, you know, the due process that we all understand . process that we all understand. >> if we if we drift into a means by which you have conviction, by allegation, then thatis conviction, by allegation, then that is a disaster for all of us. you know, if the mere fact of being accused of something is enough to have you convicted of something without the intervening process of investigation , then, you know , a investigation, then, you know, a denial court process and all of
10:22 pm
the rest of it, if anyone thinks that moving into a period of time where to be accused of something is to be guilty of something, is to be convicted of something, is to be convicted of something wrong, then that is an alligator that will in due course, consume all of us. >> no, indeed, indeed. >> no, indeed, indeed. >> and neil, speaking of cancel culture, it's come pretty close to you now. you have resigned . to you now. you have resigned. and as a fellow from scotland's most prestigious scientific body , the royal society of edinburgh, after being elected in 2020 for your talents across history and nature and archaeology , which are unmatched archaeology, which are unmatched but a spokesman for the society said in discussion with mr oliver he understood that his current views on very famous matters widely aired on television , often put him at television, often put him at odds with scientific and broader academic learning within the society. following discussions, he offered to resign his association with the rsc with immediate effect. so neil, this
10:23 pm
has made mainstream media headunes has made mainstream media headlines over the past week. you haven't spoken about it, have you been cancelled for wrong thinking for i mean, clearly there's a there's a there's a considerable chasm between what's what's happening to russell brand and, you know , to russell brand and, you know, you know, anything, anything that's happened to me however yeah. >> i mean, just to give a bit of backstory to it, i don't even know how how many years ago it was, but i suppose 4 or 5 i think would be a reasonable estimate. i was contacted by the royal society of edinburgh to see if i would like to become a fellow of the society. and it seemed quite nice. i wasn't particularly bothered one way or the other, but i went along with it and i became a fellow of the royal society of edinburgh. i because i'm a very busy man. i'm sure you are many others didn't have anything to do with it. actually, i was never over the door of the of the establishment
10:24 pm
. i didn't actually take part in anything. i thought no more about it. i didn't even tell anyone that i was a fellow of the royal society of edinburgh, apart from my wife and my mum and dad. you know. anyway so fast forward to just a few months ago, a couple to a couple of months ago, i was on holiday with my family in crete, was contacted by the royal society of edinburgh, someone saying, we think views as aired think that your views as aired on gb news are incompatible with fellowship and i thought, wow, really ? because the royal really? because the royal society of edinburgh, as i understood it, was an august scientific non—party partisan body that invited all sorts of opinions and all sorts of points of view. and yet here i was being told that i wasn't keeping to some sort of script that nobody had told me about. i dropped it right then with no hesitation. there was no consultation . as soon as they consultation. as soon as they told me that that was the state
10:25 pm
of affairs, i dropped it. i said, i'm out. that because to be quite honest with you, i don't want to be associated with any group that tries to tell its membership what to say and what to think, because as far as i'm concerned, any group that tries to tell its membership to what say and what to is cult say and what to think is a cult and bad for my brand thought i'm not being i don't want to be associated with this is associated with this. this is bad for my image. and so i dropped the royal society of edinburgh without a backward glance. it happened within glance. and it happened within minutes of me being informed that they thought that my thoughts were, you know, whatever rebel whatever encompass rebel with fellowship. yeah , i mean fellowship. so yeah, i mean whatever, whatever. if that is the way that that kind of organisation operates, then i don't want to be anywhere near it. and i dropped them like a hot potato . hot potato. >> good on you neil. but unfortunately indicative of unfortunately it's indicative of where things are going. and i guess that's why your voice so important. well, i know i know. that's why your voice is so important here on gb news neil

10:29 pm
10:30 pm
10:31 pm
gb news radio. >> let's return to tomorrow's news tonight now and more front pages are in and the guardian leads with met police warnings that it could take years to
10:32 pm
clear out rogue police officers . the force says it will take longer because the number of officers who are currently suspended or on restricted dufiesis suspended or on restricted duties is proof you can't trust starmer on brexit. but that's the headline in the daily mail, with the paper saying slippery has been accused of a brexit betrayal after he vowed to rewrite the uk's deal with brussels . my superstar panel brussels. my superstar panel return now the columnist and media personality carol mcgiffin gb news, senior political commentator. nigel nelson and the former brexit party mep beunda the former brexit party mep belinda de lucy. time now for yet another bombshell revelation that proves just how insidious is the deep state deposing of bofis is the deep state deposing of boris johnson really was . a new boris johnson really was. a new bbc documentary has revealed that senior government officials went to buckingham palace at the height of the covid pandemic to complain about the then pm, even suggesting that the late queen anne should stage an intervention during their private audiences. watch this .
10:33 pm
private audiences. watch this. >> i can't talk about conversations with the palace. i'll get into trouble. but what was it that was that you were worried about in government? >> there were definitely times after minister came after the prime minister came back from his illness when in the kind of the perception amongst the political team in number ten about the kind of failings of the system and the failings of the system and the failings of the civil service and the failings of different institutions, was so extreme and the way that they articulating that they were in absolutely kind of smash everything up, shut it all down and start again. >> we were systematically in real trouble . real trouble. >> that's what i've been warning all along. the blob would stop at nothing to remove our brilliant brexit delivering ex—pm. and they were even prepared to head of prepared to go to the head of our constitutional monarchy to make it happen. so belinda de lucy , you agree that it's clear lucy, you agree that it's clear that boris has done fall was a civil service snitch up? >> oh, i think so, yeah. i mean,
10:34 pm
i'm quite critical of boris, as you know . but i'm quite critical of boris, as you know. but i do think what happened to him was wrong. and. and is a is a real stain on the democracy of this country and on the machinery of westminster. i think also to take your sort of personal whining and squabbles to an elderly monarch in her 90s who may have well been very ill at the time, i think is really low. i think it's rather pathetic . i they should have pathetic. i they should have deau pathetic. i they should have dealt with this in house and not bother. i mean, the monarchy survives because it's above the political fray. it's maybe even more insidious though, belinda, is they went to the palace officials to try and tell the late queen what she should have been doing, the very cheek of it. yeah, but it doesn't surprise me. i think when a book has been written about this time and how boris got disposed of, i think there'll be a lot of questions to answer from the civil service. >> well, the problem is it depends how bad the cover up is. mciff because of course we know what establishment likes what the establishment likes to say reality,
10:35 pm
say about this. but in reality, boris, know, was also boris, you know, i was also highly critical of him, but he didn't want to lock the country down. didn't. and he put down. he didn't. and he was put under the most intense pressure by the civil service as by the msm, and it became impossible for him to ignore. and actually, i don't think the late queen was ever that keen on the lockdown and all the masks and all of that, either by the way, from what i'm told, no, i don't think so. 50. >> so. >> i can't give boris credit for much, but i did believe at the start that he was reluctant to go a lockdown. i mean , go into a lockdown. i mean, everybody could see that it was an insane thing to do to lock down an entire population and not just isolate the vulnerable and the sick . so i give him and the sick. so i give him credit for that. but that's why i think that this treachery, because that's what it is, it's absolute treachery. it's like this guy , i might not be on our this guy, i might not be on our side . we need to get rid of. side. we need to get rid of. >> despite the fact he's democratically elected in a lounge. but that doesn't matter,
10:36 pm

10:41 pm
10:42 pm
it's time now for uncanceled . it's time now for uncanceled. and this is where britain's top commentators speak out on controversial issues without the fear of the cancel culture sweeping the rest of the media and slippery starmer is threatening to condemn the country to a future of hellish socialist controlling country to a future of hellish socialist as controlling country to a future of hellish socialist as he controlling country to a future of hellish socialist as he plots)lling country to a future of hellish socialist as he plots to ng country to a future of hellish socialist as he plots to give westminster as he plots to give school children the vote. the labour party leaders pledged to lower the voting age in general elections to just 16 would mean that kids prohibited from smoking, or even smoking, drinking or even driving be trusted to driving would be trusted to decide the nation's political
10:43 pm
future and have babies. >> they can work. they can join the army. so there are big things you can do at 16 and 17. and again, it's not an and again, it's not such an outlandish in in wales. it outlandish idea in in wales. it already happens in scotland. it already happens in scotland. it already happens in kelvin. >> i literally cannot believe this. it's basically been ignored by the mainstream media. the story apart from that one question by nick ferrari months ago and it is going to be the biggest case of gerrymandering and british political history. this. yes. >> well, what is incredible about this, apart from the fact that any ask any mum, any dad, whether they're 16 year old is capable of even doing their bed yet alone yet alone deciding on who should run the country and what policies they should have is we have a shocking case today involving russell brand in which a 16 year old who admits today feel desperate for her, that she was being groomed and wooed and all the rest of it quite legally, because there won't be
10:44 pm
a sexual assault case involving that 16 year old. >> so you are not going to be an under legislation that looks as though it's coming. you're not going to be allowed to have a relationship with a 16 year old if you're 30 odd year old. but you are going to be allowed to vote. >> so you're not going to be allowed to have sex with the person that you want to have sex with. >> but you are allowed to actually decide whether somebody like starmer is going to run our country or not. now, these are big issues, and what is incredible is that people seem to have accepted that starmer is going to be the prime minister. thatis going to be the prime minister. that is the feeling i get everywhere and that be this form of gerrymandering is going to come in. i would like like i would like rishi to come out right now and say, let me make one thing clear. a conservative government will not only stop , government will not only stop, will not only if we get voted in the next time, take it back up to 18, we will contemplate
10:45 pm
taking it up correctly to 21 until you start paying your rent and until you start paying your food bills and still you start wanting to get on at work and having to turn up to work every day, how on earth can you have anyidea day, how on earth can you have any idea what the vast majority of the country want? yeah >> green? >> you want green? >> you want green? >> we all want green. >> oh yeah. we all want green. >> oh yeah. we all want green. >> but first of all, we want an economy that works and it won't be helped by a 16 year old deciding actually, you know what? >> i rather like the idea of an extremely left wing government because don't know because i actually don't know how money. but my how to earn money. but my parents seem to be okay and i want their cash. it is absolutely a disgraceful policy. and what i can't understand is why somebody like a starmer who's never said a word about this, how old is starmer in 50 odd. he's been in politics for at least 30 odd years, right? he suddenly decides, oh, i've got a good idea. why has he got a good idea? because he knows. and we all know that when you are with the exception of me and probably
10:46 pm
you, between 16 and 20, you're quite left wing , right? and then quite left wing, right? and then after when know you have after that, when know you have to when you have to get on with it, even me, right? >> even me believe it or not. 61 apparently he's looking good for 61. oh, is he? >> yeah, we're in good nick. yeah, but. >> look, i think you're >> but look, i think you're right out hypocrisy right to point out the hypocrisy because be talking because you can't be talking about which all the liberal left are today. and fine, there might be about be a debate to be had about this, but you can't be talking about raising the age of consent to 18 at the same time as lowering to 60. lowering the voting age to 60. there to be an age where we there has to be an age where we decide in this country, you're an you can drink, you can an adult, you can drink, you can smoke. i think the end of smoke. and i think at the end of the no one really wants 16 the day, no one really wants 16 year olds in the pub, probably for good reason. so we don't want 16 year olds being able to fight. >> you into the pub, they >> if you go into the pub, they actually say, look, we're not being rude. you're going to have to prove it. okay? so, you know , there's a this is an important issue , but it's got lost because issue, but it's got lost because our economy is in such parlous state that everybody is worried
10:47 pm
about mortgages and rents . about mortgages and rents. >> but we do have to talk about this issue. we do because what it could mean, calvin, is socialist coalition's from hell in perpetuity . and that is a big in perpetuity. and that is a big worry . but look, i want to talk worry. but look, i want to talk about the bbc because can you believe that in the same week that they cancel the irish singer rashid murphy simply for warning about puberty blockers, radio six has broadcast a song by a band called they them so clearly a very woke band suggesting that people should kick turfs all day . or is this kick turfs all day. or is this proof of bbc bias over gender issues? well it's the reality is we all pay for the bbc. >> so why is it that they don't give balance on both sides to any argument? >> but what happens is they say to themselves, do you know what actually , as long as we are actually, as long as we are hostile to the mainstream views of our country, we can get preferment within the bbc. >> if we actually start saying ,
10:48 pm
>> if we actually start saying, actually we are in favour of actually we are in favour of actually the majority views on all subjects. >> all that will happen is we won't get preferment right ? so won't get preferment right? so they sit there, read the guardian all day. if the guardian all day. if the guardian are in favour of it, so are we and we will be in work. honestly, why do we continue to pall-7 pail-7 >> pall-7 >> why ? i mean, you've pay? >> why ? i mean, you've got >> why? i mean, you've got hundreds of thousands of viewers. why are they paying just stop paying. >> they have to watch gb news on terrestrial tv. and that is the outrage. now, of course, yes, you could switch off terrestrial tv and you could you could watch gb news. no, no. i am saying if you were on i am saying use your use your financial muscle by saying we want a change and simply . saying we want a change and simply. supposing 30 or 40% of all viewers said we're not paying all viewers said we're not paying any more unless this happenis paying any more unless this happen is turning into a political battle , they would political battle, they would have to change because they they are spending 3 billion a year or 3.5 billion a year of our money. >> if they only had 1.4 billion of it, they would have to
10:49 pm
change. you must listen to the consumer. the consumer is keeping these of decisions keeping these kinds of decisions . right. are being made with your money. and i am amazed that gb news viewers don't just say i'm not paying any more. yeah they say i'm not watching the bbc, but they are still paying. they are mad . they are mad. >> and gavin mackenzie , great to >> and gavin mackenzie, great to have you. thank you. come we'll speak later in the week, but it's speak later in the week, but wsfime speak later in the week, but it's time now to reveal tonight's greatest britain and union jackass and my superstar panel returned carol mcgiffin, who we nominating as tonight's greatest britain >> well, it's not a person actually . it's a great british actually. it's a great british institution. and that is the pubs, the great british pub is under threat to a day are closing in england and wales. and i think that really people should use use it or lose it go to the pub what a great idea . to the pub what a great idea. >> yeah i'm in nigel nelson your nominee you. >> yeah. is john is jonathan ashworth for demanding that the resignation honours list of liz
10:50 pm
truss blocked from now on. no no prime minister should have a resignation honours. >> okay but nigel, you will not remember this conversation when it's slippery. starmer being booted out of number 10, about to be replaced by angela rayner at that point you will say, oh, don't give him his. at that point you will say, oh, don't give him his . this just don't give him his. this just feels. do you know what this feels. do you know what this feels particularly nasty to me? do you not think liz truss has had a year from hell ? why does had a year from hell? why does she not deserve to reward? she's already said this isn't going to be a massive list. it's really cut down. she's going to give honours to a few key allies, including folk in her local community. what's your problem with that? this feels particularly and vindictive. >> well, the problem with with it is she trashed the it is that she trashed the economy. she was only in for a very time. but equally, i very short time. but equally, i don't think that prime minister should resignation honours. should have resignation honours. there two honours lists there are two honours lists every year . there are two honours lists every year. the people there are two honours lists every year . the people who there are two honours lists every year. the people who are deserving of honours should go on. >> one of those, belinda de lucy, who's your greatest britain nominee? >> my greatest brit liz >> my greatest brit is liz truss. couldn't make that
