expected. it's getting bigger and escalating. you see what's happened with youtube, no longer monetising his youtube channel. so where do you see this as a as a senior barrister .7 a senior barrister? >> well, the metropolitan police have been very careful with their language and said that they've had a report, but they're not investing, dating and the significance of that , as and the significance of that, as you as you probably realise as journalists, that once a journalists, is that once a formal criminal investigation begins means begins in england, that means that there are default reporting restrictions and you cannot report anything that may prejudice any future proceeding . so up till now it's been completely fair game for the to media say whatever they like, subject, of course, to possible libel action brand himself libel action from brand himself . but soon as that official . but as soon as that official formal criminal investigation begins, it does, then the begins, if it does, then the media coverage will have to change in its tone and its character its content . character and its content. >> chris, i don't know how familiar you are with the with the individual cases , whether the individual cases, whether you've reports the you've read the reports in the newspapers the newspapers and seen the

dispatches documentary . but some dispatches documentary. but some are saying that actually if there was enough burden of proof to have taken a criminal case with each of these , then that with each of these, then that would have been done first before the media treatment of these stories. what's as people who don't understand the law in your detail, what's what's your understanding of that system ? understanding of that system? >> well, the system the system is a matter entirely for those who wish to make allegations of this kind, to decide how to do it. i mean, if someone's been affected by sexual violence, they the option of going to they have the option of going to they have the option of going to the police. sadly many people are off from so by the are put off from doing so by the chronic under—resourcing of the criminal in criminal justice system, in particular in the area of rape and serious sexual offending, where are a tiny number of where there are a tiny number of police officers in relation to the number of complaints and also across the entire court system, including the crown court, where i am there court, where i am today, there is just vast under—resource so is just a vast under—resource so victims or complainants or those who wish to make accusations , who wish to make accusations, they can come forward to the police. they often face enormous hurdles and huge delays when

they so in this and i'm they do so in this case, and i'm not to comment on the not going to comment on the merits of any of these allegations, but in this case, the those who are making the accusations instead accusations have chosen instead to collaborate with media organisations , the sunday times, organisations, the sunday times, the times and dispatches to get their story out there to the pubuc their story out there to the public directly with no legal process in between . and that's process in between. and that's their prerogative . they're their prerogative. they're entitled to do that as anyone is entitled to do that as anyone is entitled to, to speak to the media if they wish. the difficulty is that it creates a real risk that if there is a formal criminal investigation and in particular, if there is a prosecution that leads to a trial, that it will be very, very difficult to find a jury that not seen publicity, that has not seen publicity, which arguably be which is arguably be significantly seriously significantly and seriously prejudicial fair trial for prejudicial to a fair trial for russell brand in this case. >> chris, this is often a contentious point, isn't it, when men it's normally men who are connected with some are being connected with some form of sexual allegations of sexual abuse or are named before they're charged . now, this is they're charged. now, this is a great area of great contention

because if they're ultimately cleared, if they are charged and they're cleared, they say their lives are ruined. but the police often argue that they need to name people in these cases because enables other people because it enables other people who are potentially victims to come forward . come forward. >> yeah, the police do do that, but they do that in a very controlled way and subject to very strict legal controls, very strict guidelines as as to exactly what they can say to the public, because the police are deeply aware of their duty, not public, because the police are de prejudicee of their duty, not public, because the police are de prejudice any their duty, not public, because the police are de prejudice any criminaly, not public, because the police are de prejudice any criminal trialt to prejudice any criminal trial and criminal proceedings. and any criminal proceedings. the this case, of the media in this case, of course, are not subject any course, are not subject to any of those and regulations. of those rules and regulations. they say whatever like, they can say whatever they like, not course, as not not least, of course, as there is only, as i understand it, only one the allegations it, only one of the allegations arose conduct the arose from conduct inside the jurisdiction of england and wales. all other allegations jurisdiction of england and wal

charged in four separate indictments. complete indictments. and it's a complete free anyone can say free for all. anyone can say whatever like, including whatever they like, including him, this him, apparently. but in this country, those strict country, we do have those strict rules. absolutely rules. and you're absolutely right that sometimes the police decide have 3 decide that they have 2 or 3 complaints one, and complaints or even one, and there have been a pattern of there may have been a pattern of behaviour by the individual and they put out they therefore put out a carefully media they therefore put out a carefullin media they therefore put out a carefullin relation media they therefore put out a carefullin relation t01edia they therefore put out a carefullin relation to thea they therefore put out a carefullin relation to the case release in relation to the case which encourages anyone else affected by the issues to come forward and sometimes frequently in fact, does to in fact, that does lead to further and possibly further complaints and possibly further complaints and possibly further charges. that's entirely legitimate entirely sensible legitimate and entirely sensible because much of this behaviour takes place in secret and those who commit it, one victim won't be aware that there may be another or another or another, and making clear i'm not speaking russell brand, speaking about russell brand, i'm speaking in general i'm speaking in the general here. point is this, that here. so the point is this, that i think the real issue in this country is why is it that women and others affected by sexual violence don't feel that they can go to the police, don't feel that if they do, they'll be treated that is treated in a way that is compassionate and fair and protects them and their interests . and worst of all,

interests. and worst of all, even if they're one of that 2% that finally make it through to bnng that finally make it through to bring a criminal case in court , bring a criminal case in court, it will be years before the case comes to court. and i've acted for women who have been in this position, who have been victims of sexual violence, two and three years of utter three and four years of utter trauma and misery, just waiting for legal system to do its for the legal system to do its job. that's the real tragedy. and that is the real scandal in this in opinion. this country, in my opinion. >> and it's got it's got worse, not better. >> it's worse and worse and >> it's got worse and worse and worse. and the government has repeatedly blame covid repeatedly tried to blame covid and the other in and all of the other problems in the which there have the system of which there have been so many. but the truth is, for i've been for a generation i've been a criminal law years. over criminal law for 30 years. over the last 10 to 15 years, certainly since 2010, the investment in rape victims in support for victims of sexual violence and crucially, investment in these court buildings. i mean, this course i'm in now, it's falling apart. there are holes in the wall. there are holes in the wall. there are holes in the wall. there are wires coming out of literally live wires coming out of out of the wall. that's the state of our justice system in state of ourjustice system in

2023. and that's why women are not empowered to make complaints . why even they . and that's why even if they do, often out before do, they often drop out before the case comes to trial. >> you say these sorts of >> chris, you say these sorts of cases. charges are brought cases. rs if charges are brought and the legal system kicks in, take a very long time, what is that also like? if you are a falsely accused man ? and in falsely accused man? and in fact, let me rephrase that in the situation where it hasn't gone to court, let's look at it from that point of view. if it doesn't go to court and i wonder what your feelings are about these very high profile sex scandals , which are based on scandals, which are based on merely allegations . evans how merely allegations. evans how difficult that might be for somebody to clear their name. >> it's likely destroying mean. i mean, i act for sometimes high profile figures, sometimes as completely people who are unknown . and i act for them when unknown. and i act for them when they are accused in these situations . evans often, for situations. evans often, for example, young men who were accused at university context accused at a university context or and the case or otherwise, and the case eventually out comes eventually fizzles out and comes to nothing. their lives are utterly whether they

utterly destroyed, whether they are famous or whether are famous people or whether they are completely unknown people a false accusation people and a false accusation of sexual offending, which takes two or 3 or 4 years eventually for the person to be cleared. yes, that is incredibly and extraordinarily damaging. and the answer to that, as with so many of these problems, is adequate resources , is to help adequate resources, is to help victims and support them throughout the process, but also to ensure that cases come to trial as they should do within six months of the events. as our time theoretically time limit in theoretically provides. but in reality never happens. >> and just briefly, crystal, on that point , of course, sometimes that point, of course, sometimes of they are high of course, when they are high profile, it's because of media exposure that people go to prison. thinking max prison. i'm thinking of max clifford, to prison for prison. i'm thinking of max ciseries to prison for prison. i'm thinking of max ciseries of to prison for prison. i'm thinking of max ciseries of sexual to prison for prison. i'm thinking of max ciseries of sexual related on for a series of sexual related offences, which came out because offences, which came out because of media investigation, of a media investigation, because women hadn't had the courage come forward . courage to come forward. >> does happen and it >> yes, it does happen and it can be effective . but but can be effective. but but really, what you're proving by by using that example and some of the other examples of that kind is just how little faith members of the public are

affected by these things have in the police and have in the legal process that they that process that they are that something which most people, when they thinking about when they were thinking about these issues will be will be their first reaction will be why don't people go to the police? and understandable and that's an understandable reaction. a failure reaction. but that's a failure of policing and it's failure of policing and it's a failure of policing and it's a failure of investment the legal of investment in the legal system. not a failure of system. it's not a failure of those young women or women those young women and or women of ages make of all ages who make that difficult brave to go difficult and brave choice to go to the media to report abuse of power and sexual misbehaviour by people like max clifford or harvey weinstein or whoever it may be. deserve and may be. they deserve credit and support , but the legal system support, but the legal system really is the proper place for these things to be, only these things to be, not only investigated, but taken to court and eventually to achieve justice. yeah >> all right. thank you, chris. crystal, can see there. let us know your thoughts this morning. of breaking of course, the latest breaking news is that russell news on this is that russell brand had his youtube brand has had his youtube channel taken down by youtube because these allegations. i because of these allegations. i think it makes him about £1 million a year. his youtube, i think still there. think it's still there. >> think if they're not

>> i just think if they're not allowing it to be monetised, i think that's going to get that clarified. it's still there. clarified. so it's still there. people can it, but it's people can watch it, but it's not will be ads. so he not there will be no ads. so he won't getting any money out won't be getting any money out of it. >> e- e you call cancel culture. >> what you call cancel culture. >> what you call cancel culture. >> that's what you call guilty before the ability before being given the ability to online safety bill to clear the online safety bill is become law today is expected to become law today after completing its final parliamentary stages. after completing its final par it'slentary stages. after completing its final par it's expected ages. of >> it's expected to be one of the flagship pieces the government's flagship pieces of for this term, of legislation for this term, designed everyone safe online. >> some people still have >> but some people still have concerns about it. alan miller is co—founder is a co—founder of together association alan. association morning alan. good morning . good morning. you morning. good morning. are you one those people who have one of those people who have concerns about this online safety has been ping safety bill? it has been ping ponged back and forth through various committees and sittings in for parliament several years. what kind of state is it in today ? today? >> well, many of the things have been changed because of the criticism and that should be noted and that's important. but there are still very big problems with it as it stands. on the one hand, this is still a census charter that makes it incumbent on big tech to

actually in their terms and conditions and the mores of them to make decisions about what is appropriate and what's not. so for instance, your last piece on russell brand , there are russell brand, there are allegations out they've made a decision to take off his monetisation on that. you could see this across the board. if we look at the recent period, for instance, with the lockdown files or the counter disinformation unit where the government has got a spy unit on its citizens and journalists and medical people, the whole idea of suffocation of free speech, of suffocation of free speech, of that thing is not appropriate in our terms and conditions. maybe of people that think woke is the best way. maybe if people who think another way is the best way, all of these terms and conditions become the contours for limiting this census charter. also the case that charter. it's also the case that the online safety bill and the lords today still has within it provisions to prevent encryption, which will mean people will not be able to use whatsapp and signal and telegram in their current incarnations. whatsapp and signal and telegram in tiability rent incarnations. whatsapp and signal and telegram in tiability to |t incarnations. whatsapp and signal and telegram in tiability to communicate. the ability to communicate without being detected is very

important for all sorts of things, not just whistleblowers, but talking to your family and our privacy. the idea of the privacy of citizens is essential and we see a constant attempt to limit and suffocate and restrict that. now you know, this is really important in the context of a free society , a free speech of a free society, a free speech and free expression . we've seen and free expression. we've seen many attempts to limit these things. and frankly , the online things. and frankly, the online safety bill still has measures in it that should give everyone grave concerns. and we would say it together. and we've been saying that everyone should make sure that their mps and the government hear from them and that we want to make sure that free speech is paramount. it's fundamental. you can't have a free society or the successes of the last 300 years that we have in this society without being able to express opposing views, different ideas and things that people think are really unpleasant and sometimes even hateful , as long unpleasant and sometimes even hateful, as long as unpleasant and sometimes even hateful , as long as they're

hateful, as long as they're legal . you know, we've got to be legal. you know, we've got to be able to have legal free speech. we've also seen that play out with the de—banking scandal and deplatforming. so this is still of grave concern and we'd encourage everyone to get involved and challenge last involved and challenge the last remaining involved and challenge the last renjustng involved and challenge the last renjust press your timeline and >> just press your timeline and just briefly, ministers would argue one of the reasons they set out with this online bill was try to protect vulnerable was to try to protect vulnerable people, people in people, young people in particular, from being exposed to stuff perhaps their parents don't them to see. don't want them to see. >> they achieved that ? >> have they achieved that? >> have they achieved that? >> i think the thing is that there's almost no one would argue with the need to ensure that young people are protected, and that involves all sorts of things from parenting to provisions that are put in place and also to whether children at school and others have some of these mobile phones and all of that. but i think the problem is when you suffocate the whole of society , when you restrict society, when you restrict adults and everyone in society on the basis of what adults need to do to protect children,

that's very problematic. so there needs to be measures and you can work out things like you have an off licences and pubs and measures like that that people can get creative , they people can get creative, they can get very specific . can get very specific. unfortunately, what we've got is a blanket consideration that's going to impact all of society and we've seen far too much suffocate dating of free speech and free expression and we really need to challenge that . really need to challenge that. it's very important . it's very important. >> okay. >> okay. >> thanks, alan. >> thanks, alan. >> now, sir keir starmer, he's on his way. >> he's probably there now. the elysee palace, very fabulous palace in paris to meet with the french president, emmanuel macron . macron. >> p- >> the labour leader is introducing himself as prime introducing himself as a prime minister waiting this minister in waiting in this break in protocol meeting to discuss on and discuss policies on brexit and other areas . other areas. >> so the french journalist david chazan joins david david chazan joins us. david macron suspect , is keener to macron i suspect, is keener to see keir starmer, who he's pretty confident is going to be prime minister after the next general election perhaps than he would be to see the current prime minister, rishi sunak. what do you think ?

what do you think? >> well, think he gets on >> well, i think he gets on famously with rishi sunak and certainly franco—british relations have improved tremendously since rishi sunak took office. remember, liz truss said she didn't know whether france was an enemy of the uk or not. and from the french standpoint , they certainly saw standpoint, they certainly saw bofis standpoint, they certainly saw boris johnson as untrustworthy and an unreliable partner. so they certainly believe that rishi sunak is somebody they can do business with on a more reasonable level . but do business with on a more reasonable level. but i think they do see keir starmer as a potential prime minister in waiting and the sense i've got from speaking to aides of president macron is they're essentially going to be in listening mode today. essentially going to be in listening mode today . they're listening mode today. they're seeing what keir starmer has got to say. first of all, and to get a sense of him and see how easy they think it will be to negotiate late to work together

with him in the future. because remember , despite brexit, that remember, despite brexit, that britain and france do remain very close on key issues, not the least of which is . defence the least of which is. defence >> is it is it kind of typical, bill, do you think, for a prime minister in waiting as we saying, as he's casting himself as to go around to other countries at this sort of time and greasing palms in this way ? and greasing palms in this way? or does this demonstrate a huge amount confidence from amount of confidence from keir starmer . well, there is a starmer. well, there is a precedent for this . precedent for this. >> i remember back in 2012, the then french president, francois hollande , had met with the hollande, had met with the british opposition leader, the labour leader at the time. so it has happened before . i think it has happened before. i think it would be a serious breach of protocol if keir starmer were to be given the same treatment as a “md of government, which of head of government, which of course he isn't. this is a sort

of off—agenda meeting and there will be no press conference, be no photo there'll be no photo opportunities or anything like that. so it is really just a sort of get to know you meeting because as the as i was saying, the sense i get from the french is that they think he could very well end up in downing street next year. so it's useful to establish contact with him right ? >> right. 7 >> right. that's david chazan. thanks. we'll get more on that, of course, when keir starmer is actually at the elysee palace. chris hope, our political editor , course, is with keir , of course, is with keir starmer in paris. >> that's right. to come >> that's right. still to come this morning, former prime minister thinks minister liz truss thinks we should our net goals. should scrap our net zero goals. do you agree? this is britain's newsroom the newsroom on gb news, the people's channel. >> the temperature is rising. boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. weather on. gb news. >> hello. very good day to you. it is going to be an unsafe cold

day with a lot of cloudy, wet and windy weather around for many of us. a slightly fresher feel than of late, too. you can see just how widespread the rain is at the moment and it is going to be heavy at times. we're to going see totals building up, particularly across parts of north—west and western north—west england and western wales. do have warning in wales. we do have a warning in force some disruption force with some disruption possible. many, it's a possible. for many, it's a cloudy and windy picture, though some brightness across far northern of scotland , northern parts of scotland, temperatures well near normal for time of year. highs into for the time of year. highs into the low perhaps for some, the low 20s, perhaps for some, but the unsettled weather , but in the unsettled weather, it's going to feel pretty unpleasant as through the unpleasant as we go through the evening. we're to going this evening. we're to going see this spell making spell of rain gradually making its way east, north, eastwards across more northern areas before further and before some further wet and windy arrives from the windy weather arrives from the west. it will have some heavy bursts mixed into it, which is why those totals really are going build across the going to build up across the next day or so. temperatures aren't going to drop much. these temperatures close to what temperatures are close to what you'd expect during the daytime at year, but it is at this time of year, but it is going to unpleasant if going to feel unpleasant if you're early tomorrow in the

you're out early tomorrow in the wind cloudy, wet wind and rain. a cloudy, wet picture then for many of picture again. then for many of us tomorrow, see that us tomorrow, you can see that rain gradually make its way rain does gradually make its way eastwards. the afternoon eastwards. so by the afternoon it likely affecting it is likely to be affecting more central southern parts of england behind it, there will be something a bit perhaps something a bit drier, perhaps brighter, but also plenty of showers. heavy and showers. these will be heavy and thundery times with the risk thundery at times with the risk of some hail temperatures of some hail and temperatures near normal for the time of yeah near normal for the time of year. feeling unpleasant, year. but feeling unpleasant, the temperatures rising . the temperatures rising. >> a boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. of weather on. gb news. >> thanks for joining of weather on. gb news. >> thanks forjoining us of weather on. gb news. >> thanks for joining us this morning. so this is what former prime minister liz truss said yesterday. >> we should as many other western countries are already doing delay implementing net zero commitments . zero commitments. >> we're going to be debating that next. this is

the uk government's pursuit of net zero emissions by 2050. this is what she had to say. >> we should, as many other western countries are already doing delay implementing net zero commitments such as a ban on new petrol and diesel vehicles from 2030. other environmental regulations which are hiking the cost of living, like enforcing the replacement of gas and oil boilers, should also be abandoned . also be abandoned. >> so does liz truss have a point? does net zero cost us all too much to discuss this? we are joined by senior lecturer in climate change, john grant and meteorologist dale . meteorologist jim dale. gentlemen, great to see you both, both regulars on this show . john, let me start with you. what do you make of it? does your heart sink when you hear liz truss saying we need to delay net zero? yeah i'm laughing, but i'm not really. >> this is classic current government of short term gain for long term pain. the you

know, we know that investment in zero carbon in this in this this strategy will eventually give us a payback for that investment. this is not a cost. this is an investment in the future. and here's the thing that not investing is actually doing something that you're and by not investing the cost associated with that are going to be significantly higher than the investments that zero carbon requires. so we're literally punishing the very people that we're trying to protect here. the most vulnerable , the the most vulnerable, the poorest, the old, the young in this ridiculous sort of idea that the moving over to an electric only economy to produce green electricity. the problem though, john, when you say that who we're trying to protect the poorest in society , jim, those poorest in society, jim, those are the ones who are having to pay are the ones who are having to pay this short term cost in

terms of bills and go on before ibnng terms of bills and go on before i bring jim in. >> john, come back to me on that because surely it's those who are struggling to pay for their fuel bills at the moment are the ones that we're worried about. >> absolutely . >> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> say this often enough >> i can't say this often enough that it >> i can't say this often enough thatitis >> i can't say this often enough that it is the fact that our current government have left these people so swinging, swinging out there in the wind. if only we were using it for power and they rather than being supported that we have the potential to invest in our homes . i think we had this conversation last time i was on, you know, insulating people's homes. actually has a payback that you can pay for in the money you save by insulating people's homes. this is money you save by insulating people's homes . this is a no people's homes. this is a no brainer and it's being weaponised by honestly by people being funded by the oil and gas industry to say it's a cost when actually it requires government support. there is no doubt that

we can't just ask people to transition, but it's better to support people to improve their homes than to give them £400 to give to some nameless energy company abroad, which is just crazy. >> let's bring jim dale in about a specific point liz truss made yesterday . jim, she talked about yesterday. jim, she talked about the lifting the that she wants the lifting the that she wants the ban on oil and gas boilers. they've got to go by 2026 to be lifted, which means presumably replacing them with a hydrogen alternative . is the technology alternative. is the technology anywhere near ready for that? and how much is a hydrogen boiler going to cost the average family? well i'm not i'm not an expert in terms of hydrogen boilers or any other sort of boilers. >> but first of all, i would say john's got tremendous zeal. you introduced us earlier on in your programme as being zealous in terms of our direction of travel zealots means zeal, it means passion. i think we both got that passion for doing the right thing and john's actually laid a great foundation in terms of where we're going with this. i

think the actual mechanics of how we get there in terms of some of the costs of you mentioned boilers, hydrogen boilers or other boilers and what have you , i think that will what have you, i think that will will evolve with time , just like will evolve with time, just like any, any, any . but jim, let me. any, any, any. but jim, let me. jim we've only got three years. >> jim we've only got three years. and i think you're going to find these boilers currently would 16, £17,000. would be about 16, £17,000. average families can't pay that. >> yeah , i'm not saying look, >> yeah, i'm not saying look, i think things will evolve. we'll get a new government. look, truss has said this yesterday , truss has said this yesterday, and to be honest with you, she lasted less week, lasted less than a week, virtually in in, in in the prime ministers. don't think we take any view from from ms truss whatsoever in terms of this . one whatsoever in terms of this. one thing i will say is having this conversation on gb news is absolutely fantastic. is absolutely fantastic. this is where should really where it should be. i really want to broaden this out, maybe even bring some opposers in occasionally. know , this is occasionally. you know, this is the right direction that we talk about you're right. about this. andrew you're right. in highlighting of in terms of highlighting some of the problems going forward. but

those are the practical, maybe some political problems that we have to resolve in terms of the meteorology or the climatology thatis meteorology or the climatology that is set in stone. it's going in one direction. have a look at derna in libya that in the previous few weeks and maui before that. these things are happening all around us. there is an absolute necessity to move forward at pace. >> so, john, i need a new boiler at home now. it's not working. what do i do? because i've looked into air source heat pumps. i've looked into it. they're enormous. i've got no space for it. and they're cripplingly expensive at the moment. and apparently they don't do a very good job in the winter anyway. how should i heat my home to protect the planet? >> well. well, the first thing you is, discussed, you do is, as we've discussed, is make home as as energy is make your home as as energy efficient with insulation as possible. >> 1930 semi, really >> so 1930 semi, it's really hard to insulate for the rest. >> i've got some really >> i've i've got some really good news because there are these hundreds of thousands of heat planned to be heat pumps planned to be installed . factory octopus

installed. factory octopus energy has is building a factory was listening in on their conference the other day and they are producing a high heat heat pump that they're claiming thatis heat pump that they're claiming that is going to be five grand in store. >> is it going to work? >> is it going to work? >> we are looking at it. >> we are looking at it. >> is it going to work? >> is it going to work? >> yes. >> yes. and >> yes. and how >> yes. and how quickly? >> yes. and how quickly? how quickly, john? >> i mean, there is a is it going to be ready by 2026 to make these work? >> is it going to be ready by 2026? well now they claim they are already ready, but you know, we have no support. >> we you know, this is a future that is, you know , is so that is, you know, is so positive. you put one unit of electricity in and you can get three units of heat out. if you've got a well—designed home, it's like magic , but it isn't it's like magic, but it isn't magic. hydrogen for domestic heating is a bit of a red herring, i personally think. but you know, there's this huge opportunity here. and yes, the old heat pumps, there is a lot of charlatans who always do

this. people think, oh, yeah, let's install them. and they were in stalled in a rubbish way . and you know, it is more challenging a bit like all new technology, you have to know what you're talking about and there are a lot of dodgy heating engineers out there who've just installed them and they were rubbish , right? rubbish, right? >> it's true. it's true. dictates technology always advances more quickly with time. we always have the doubts about mobile , mobile phones, about mobile, mobile phones, about electric cars , going back, about electric cars, going back, about televisions. can we turn from black and white to colour and how fast is that going to happen? there's always been questions ahead of it happening . just one the . and it just one of the positives of climate change is that that that man and technology will move that little bit quicker and faster in order that we actually get to where we need to get to. so i would expect and i agree with john in this in terms of the fact that this in terms of the fact that this will unravel a lot faster than what we actually think at this moment in time. >> but it is around the corner

and liz truss is saying, and what liz truss is saying, shouldn't delay it? shouldn't we just delay it? shouldn't delay this deadune? >> she said. to ban it. she she actually said throw it out, actually said to throw it out, not to not to delay it. i mean, the idea of installing heat pumps into the houses that were suitable, which by my research is about four out of ten houses there are that six out of ten that you can't do immediately. now, she said that that i'd have nothing but respect for her. but what's she saying is let's shelve zero carbon for my lackeys or whatever. and let these people suffer of the climate which, which i bow to my colleague here that trying to find a audience on this is going to be she tried to find an audience and that audience doesn't exist. >> andrew would say to you, there was only one poll that i've seen of late and i say of late, this is going back to the may elections, when people are asked when they left the polling booth about net zero and the results not sure results came in, i'm not sure which which pollster was,

which which pollster it was, but 66% favour of going in the 66% in favour of going in the direction of net zero 20 against. >> let me put a different poll to you. there was a by—election in uxbridge a few weeks ago. the tory party fought it squarely and fairly on one issue the mayor's decision to expand the ultra low emission zone. and while they lost two by elections on swings of 2,530% in other parts of the country, they held onto that seat because there was a massive rejection of the ultra low emission zone, is seen low emission zone, which is seen not as to do with saving the environment, but it's just another a politician another way by a politician chosen to raise money on the back of families that are really struggling . struggling. >> i live next door to uxbridge . i know it quite well. in actual fact, it's quite gentrified in certain areas. i can understand it's never been won by the labour party in the past. the tories just clung on and although ulez was a i would call it a minor reason for voting in that particular area . voting in that particular area. >> come on, jim. >> it was the reason. jim. come on. it goes against the grain. they lost two by elections.

massive rally that day. they hung because it was hung on because it was a referendum on ulez vote for something. >> 400 votes. they won by. if that's replicated across , they that's replicated across, they lost the same lost two by elections the same day 25,000. day by 25,000. >> jim yeah, i'm not saying that it wasn't a issue. >> you said it was a minor issue. >> jim it wasn't. >> jim it wasn't. >> it was the issue and other things. >> jim it was the issue too. it was the issue. >> andrew you've made it into being that issue because that was a handy excuse . make it was a handy excuse. make it absolutely clear most people in this country, uxbridge included , believe that net zero believe that the greening of this country and moving in that direction, albeit albeit in an evolving way, is the direction that we need to take. given the fact of the last particularly the last two years of climate events . events. >> let me just ask you , john, >> let me just ask you, john, did you see the headline yesterday? london mayor sadiq khan, a man who's pushed through ulez repeatedly and yet clocked up 470,000 air miles, flying around the world, preaching is green agenda probably as part of

this c40 committee that he's head of with all these mayors all around the world, what does that make you think? because it makes me think that we little people are going to be the ones that suffer travelling less, that suffer by travelling less, having cities, not having our 15 minute cities, not being to use our cars and being able to use our cars and eat meat. it's not going to affect the likes of sadiq khan. those in power will always have affect the likes of sadiq khan. thos sort power will always have affect the likes of sadiq khan. thos sort of wer will always have affect the likes of sadiq khan. thos sort of freedom,|lways have affect the likes of sadiq khan. thos sort of freedom, won't have that sort of freedom, won't they?if that sort of freedom, won't they? if uncomfortable, it they? if it's uncomfortable, it is uncomfortable. >> tell you. and the >> i can't tell you. me and the 495 that voted in the 495 people that voted in the uxbndge 495 people that voted in the uxbridge election. so that's only a 248 tipping point there. that isn't a an absolute underpinning of the anti ulez. but as i've said on this program before, you know, ulez is all about air quality, not about zero carbon. that's what we were just saying . and i'm just saying. and i'm uncomfortable with this as being using a stick in the starting point. but we need to move away from cars. you said about the 15 minute city. i've been to 15 minute city. i've been to 15 minute cities and they are great places to live. please don't

weaponize it as saying it's a horrible place. you go to amsterdam and move through their 15 minute cities. they are they are wonderfully safe. the air quality is good. you know, it is not a bad thing. and you know, people that need to use cars can use cars . is people that need to use cars can use cars. is it people that need to use cars can use cars . is it realistic? use cars. is it realistic? >> is it really stick, though, john, that. no, no, no. is it realistic that given the landscape, the topology of this country, the urban sprawl of this country, could you see a time in which we have 15 minute cities and just explain to our audience what they are precisely ? >> well, the idea is 7 >> well, the idea is that, ? >> well, the idea is that, you know, all your major services are within 15 minutes using active transport. >> and the idea that you don't have to, because you're quite right, our infrastructure for the last 50 years, pretty much maybe as much as 70 years, has been designed with the car in mind. and that has to stop now. you know, people talk about a war on cars. it's not a war on cars. it's a war in favour of people and their health. it's a war on travel. the number of

cars, they're harming us. they're harming us. >> all right . >> all right. >> all right. >> we should remind john, by the way, one of the trips that the mayor took in his plane with his six advisors was to argentine to talk about climate change. couldn't he have done that on zoom ? zoom? >> t- >> i agree, mate. >> i agree, mate. >> i'm not i'm not here to support sadiq khan. you know, things can be done better. and i would ban flying don't don't get me going and it what completely but you ban flying completely openin but you ban flying completely open in an emergency emergency you should be rationed you should be rationed which would be. >> congratulations, john, because that's exactly what's coming down the line . you've coming down the line. you've your dream will be achieved by 2030. but it won't be us. lot flying. but the likes of sadiq khan and all of those running the world, they will still be flying. jim dale i'm reading nothing but whether or not your book i'm reading it at the moment so i can educate myself on this issue. i think it's always very important do always very important to do a deep it is. jim

deep dive. there it is. jim dale, john grant, you both dale, john grant, thank you both so right still to come, so much. right still to come, have heard this atrocious have you heard of this atrocious tradition spain tradition in spain where a bull's are set fire? bull's horns are set on fire? we've got some shocking footage and it really is shocking . and it really is shocking. >> so be be braced for it. we're gb news channel. gb news britain's news channel. >> the temperatures rising, boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. on. gb news. >> hello very good day to you. it is going to be an unsettled day with a lot of cloudy, wet and windy weather around . for and windy weather around. for many us, a slightly fresher many of us, a slightly fresher feel late, too. you can feel than of late, too. you can see just how widespread the rain is at the moment. and it is going to be heavy at times. we're going to see totals building up, particularly across parts north—west and parts of north—west england and western wales. we do have a warning some warning in force with some disruption possible . for many. disruption possible. for many. it's a cloudy windy picture, it's a cloudy and windy picture, though brightness across though some brightness across far northern scotland. far northern parts of scotland. temperatures as well near normal for the time of year. highs into the low 20s, perhaps for some,

but in the unsettled weather, it's feel pretty it's going to feel pretty unpleasant . but go through unpleasant. but as we go through the evening, we're going to see this spell rain gradually this spell of rain gradually making east. making its way east. northeastwards across more northern areas before some further windy weather further wet and windy weather arrives from the west. it will have some heavy bursts mixed into it, which why those into it, which is why those totals are going build totals really are going to build up across the next day or so . up across the next day or so. temperatures aren't going to drop much. temperatures drop much. these temperatures are what you'd expect are close to what you'd expect dunng are close to what you'd expect during this time during the daytime at this time of it is going to feel of year, but it is going to feel unpleasant if you're out early tomorrow in the wind and rain. a cloudy, picture again . then cloudy, wet picture again. then for us tomorrow, you can for many of us tomorrow, you can see rain does gradually see that rain does gradually make way eastwards. so make its way eastwards. so by the afternoon it is likely to be affecting more central southern parts behind it, parts of england behind it, there will be something a bit dnen there will be something a bit drier, perhaps brighter, but also plenty of showers. these will be and thundery at will be heavy and thundery at times, the risk of some times, with the risk of some hail near hail and temperatures near normal time of year. but normal for the time of year. but feeling unpleasant, normal for the time of year. but feeling unpleasant , the feeling unpleasant, the temperatures rising . temperatures rising. >> boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on .

sunday mornings from 930 on. gb news . and it's 1026. news. and it's 1026. >> you're with britain's newsroom on gb news with andrew pierce and bev turner with keir starmer is at the elysee, but it's almost there now to meet with this french president, emmanuel . that's right. emmanuel macron. that's right. >> facing that he's >> he's facing claims that he's looking to take britain back to square on brexit. but number square one on brexit. but number 10 that it is not

10 has commented that it is not unusual opposition unusual for opposition leaders to leaders . so to meet world leaders. so joining now from paris is gb joining us now from paris is gb news political editor christopher hope. morning, chris. bonjour is that right, that it chris. bonjour is that right, thatitis chris. bonjour is that right, that it is not unusual for opposition leaders to meet world leaders at a time like this? it sounds like number 10 are being a little bit defensive of . a little bit defensive of. >> well, it's not unusual. i mean , he'll know that ed mean, he'll know that ed miliband met with francois hollande. david cameron met with barack obama in 2009. william hague had it right. i think he was when he was shadow foreign secretary. he said we should only really have one uk government at a time and the risk this visit is doing in risk that this visit is doing in paris it might muddy the paris is it might muddy the franco—british waters , never the franco—british waters, never the most clearest waters as andrew and bev at any one time. of course, tomorrow , this week the course, tomorrow, this week the union jacks are out here in a very autumnal paris because king charles and queen camilla are here tomorrow for their delayed state visit . so it's odd to know state visit. so it's odd to know why he's doing it now, apart from the fact it fits with his

schedule. he's been, of course, to the hague to meet europol over the weekend, he met with trudeau , the canadian premier, trudeau, the canadian premier, in in in canada. and now he's here in paris with david lammy and rachel reeves. so far, he's met with vivendi, the french conglomerate , and he's met there conglomerate, and he's met there with ceos , with uk interests . with ceos, with uk interests. but what they're downplaying , but what they're downplaying, what can happen here, the aides to keir starmer, they're saying that, of course , he's not yet that, of course, he's not yet he's not prime minister, which he's not prime minister, which he isn't. and they're saying that there no big that it will be there was no big announcements he announcements expected, but he arrived, of course, with a big tweet, his tweet this keir starmers labour will starmers tweet said labour will improve our relationship with europe and make brexit work for britain . well, what that means britain. well, what that means is going to renegotiate is they're going to renegotiate bits the treaty in 2026. but bits of the treaty in 2026. but what can happen is people i speak to say there might be a deal on fish, which could be a big the next election. >> thing is, chris, we >> well, the thing is, chris, we know when david cameron know from when david cameron tried negotiate a new deal tried to negotiate a new deal with the eu and boris johnson and go back all the way to 1970s

when harold wilson was trying to do a deal before the common market brussels if market referendum. brussels if brussels they always take brussels gives, they always take more. what exactly is starmer more. so what exactly is starmer trying to achieve and what will the french, led by macron, want in return ? well, as i say, i've in return? well, as i say, i've been talking to people with knowledge of the tca, that agreement agreed 2 or 3 years ago. >> now , a long time ago, the one >> now, a long time ago, the one area they think there's open for negotiation is fish quotas . the negotiation is fish quotas. the uk, the uk gets back control of all of its fish, fish, fisheries after. i think it's the end of 2025 or 20 early 2026. and it's that which the french want. it's always about fish andrew and bev with the eu, isn't it? going back to the cod wars in the 19705? back to the cod wars in the 1970s? and back to the cod wars in the 19705? and i back to the cod wars in the 1970s? and i think that's what they'll want. and then what we might want return is, is some might want in return is, is some deal on ev battery as that's for electric vehicles we're seeing of course mini bmw building new these new minis in in cowley and in oxford and country of origin

matters because that's how you can ensure you can sell british cars on the continent. so a deal on electric batteries might be done for a fish. that's one idea. we're not doing brexit yet. andrew and bev don't worry about it. >> the thing is, though, the suspicion will be and the charge will the tories and will be by the tories and they're going slow in they're not going to be slow in making that this is a man who making it that this is a man who tried twice to get a second referendum. wanted brexit referendum. he wanted brexit cancelled. that was his position in the last labour administration. he administration. when has he changed he the changed his has he has the leopard changed spots leopard really changed his spots ? is he going to try and water down brexit? isn't that what this about? this is really about? >> whatever . i've >> well, whatever. ever i've asked that question, i won't asked him that question, i won't be able to get him on this be able to get to him on this trip. he has said to me, brexit is done. i get it now. if brexit is done. i get it now. if brexit is about a choice of how we trade with other countries, then that choice can made at the that choice can be made at the ballot with a new government ballot box with a new government coming issue of coming in. but the issue of sovereignty, i think, is settled. at least that's what they course the they say. but of course the tories will try and exploit this and they at the next and they will say at the next

election that you labour election that if you vote labour next year when other elections held, it's that held, then it's likely that starmer renegotiate starmer will try and renegotiate the brexit that's what the brexit deal. that's what they and it's really up they will say and it's really up to labour to and reassure to labour to try and reassure people won't happen. okay people that won't happen. okay >> chris. i think >> thank you, chris. i think that tone of voice from keir starmer brexit is done. i get it . that's the tone of voice. i say my kids when i say, you say to my kids when i say, you want to come home 9:00, get want to come home at 9:00, i get it. then them up at it. and then i pick them up at 8:00. yeah, right. still to come, great balls on fire. stay with us to find out what we are talking about. it's really quite distressing footage that and all the in the the stories that appear in the papers . more to papers this morning. more to come gb news. first of come on gb news. but first of all, is the news with all, here is the news with tatiana sanchez . beth thank you tatiana sanchez. beth thank you very much. >> 1031. this is the latest from the newsroom. russell brand will no longer make money via his youtube channel after the website suspended him from its creator program in a statement, the company owned by google said they take action when a creators off platform behaviour harms its

living a very clean, decent life. i know some of his family and he really. life. i know some of his family and he really . what more do we and he really. what more do we want in britain? we're baying for blood for something that happened. gosh, i don't want you to a mirror up to the to hold a mirror up to the things that i did in my teens or my it's illegal, if it's my 20s. if it's illegal, if it's if it's going to be criminal. well, if he's raped someone, that's he has. that's illegal. he has. absolutely right. but know, absolutely right. but you know, andrew, mother of both andrew, i am the mother of both sons daughters, and i see sons and daughters, and i see both sides that. mean, both sides of that. i mean, i have seen it's happened to have seen and it's happened to us that one of my son's friends got i it didn't even get got i mean, it didn't even get to the police. you know, to the police. but, you know, this girl alleged that he that she of his she was raped by one of his friends. didn't happen. it friends. it didn't happen. it was all true. and it all got sorted out. but that poor boy, that just as much as that poor boy, just as much as that poor boy, just as much as that poor boy, just as much as that poor girl. and i have something say about something to say about that 16 year old's where were they? >> where were they? >> where were they? >> apparently mother >> so apparently the mother drove the house. drove her to the house. >> well, mean, i mean, do you >> well, i mean, i mean, do you know how stupid year old know how stupid 16 year old girls as a mother, girls are? and as a mother, i know how stupid 16 year old girls are. so all this kind of kind of grooming allegation, it

sounds were sounds like the parents were grooming me, although nothing illegal, yeah >> 31 e- e— yeah >> 31 year old man who was >> the 31 year old man who was absolutely a very famous man absolutely in a very famous man and inappropriate for her parents her who are parents to be taking her who are her nigel, look, her guardians, nigel, look, there's long history there's a long history of investigative journalists putting bars. putting people behind bars. i think we know what happened to harvey weinstein in america. that was he was exposed because of a series of investigations . of a series of investigations. i'm thinking about max clifford here and others. >> yeah. and i also think, although there's no equivalence here, either, we ought to remember how we all miss jimmy savile that the that i'm not making a comparison between the, the people didn't miss jimmy savile people knew about jimmy savile people knew about jimmy savile and they turned a blind eye. well, but the point was that nothing was done about it . that nothing was done about it. and as a result he went to on abuse an awful lot of other young girls. and i mean , in young girls. and i mean, in a sense, i was part of this that i'd heard rumours about. jimmy savile when i was a very young reporter on the daily mail daily mail women reporters were told,

whatever you do, if you're going out to interview him, don't end up on your own with him. the warning signs were there , and warning signs were there, and because he was a national icon and a national treasure, because he because of his charitable work, he was able to use the nhs to then find victims was an awful lot of other girls were abused by him. whether he could have been stopped and that's where i think the media plays an important role. too late, though. >> too late, nigel. it's just they were too late. they all suck at and you can't suck at him and you can't compare epstein and max clifford because of the because those men, a lot of the time put women a time they put women in a situation where they wanted situation where if they wanted to and they wanted to go to work and they wanted to go forward, to do certain forward, they had to do certain acts with these people, you know, said done. know, whatever said and done. russell behaved in a kind russell brand behaved in a kind of way a lot of men of leery way that a lot of men behaved and 90s by behaved in the 80s and 90s by his admission, by his own his own admission, by his own admission. and i just it i will i will be i'll eat my hat if he raped anyone. i think he behaved very badly and i completely agree he's been accused of it but also so basically you're saying made saying these women who've made these allegations to the

investigation . i am investigation are lying. i am going to sit on the fence when it comes to actually calling out someone to be a liar. but i have seen women make allegations for famous men or regret let me tell you, there's a lot of regret that goes on when you get to 40 or 50 or however old you are. and you've done things when you were 20 or whatever, it's great to have chance to say i was to have the chance to say i was coerced. >> but you also know, tonya, we've talked lawyer about we've talked to a lawyer about it earlier, how difficult it is for in this country for women in this country anywhere report. anywhere to report. >> andrew, >> a oh, my gosh, andrew, i completely agree with you. i mean, still have horrific mean, we still have horrific things going on north in things going on up north in rochdale grooming gangs rochdale with the grooming gangs that raped every that girls are being raped every single well. not single day as well. that is not on the front of the press. on the front page of the press. but you find a sparkly celebrity grooming gangs were exposed by the. >> that's right. still going. there detritus there was a complete detritus the media was they the mainstream media was they expose gangs. expose the grooming gangs. >> so this is where the >> yes. and so this is where the press plays a part. and press actually plays a part. and i think that when it comes to the it was the times the women, it was the times actually, and again, they actually, again and again, they broke it and was times broke it and it was the times sunday worked on

sunday mirror worked hard on it as but mean, if a woman as well. but i mean, if a woman wants to go to the press because she doesn't trust the she either doesn't trust the police is frightened of the police or is frightened of the police or is frightened of the police or is frightened of the police or doesn't want to get into case 15 years into a court case 15 years later, well , any into a court case 15 years later, well, any time. >> what do they wish to achieve 15 years later? >> justice may be justice. >> justice may be justice. >> you go to the police. >> you go to the police. >> well, it's not easy, bev. i thought you mother . i was thought you were a mother. i was a mother of teenagers. would know that. >> mean, you know, one of the >> i mean, you know, one of the biggest tragedies of this whole thing i just want to thing is, is that i just want to say if you're sexually say that if you're sexually abused don't go to abused or you raped, don't go to abused or you raped, don't go to a if that's it's a journalist. if that's if it's hard to to the police, how hard to go to the police, how hard to go to the police, how hard must it be to go and sit in the offices of a newspaper and talk your genitals? well, talk about your genitals? well, they've it's they've clearly decided it's easy to talk the police. easy to talk to the police. well, shouldn't to police. >> so you're absolutely right. >> so you're absolutely right. >> right, the right, the >> the right, the right, the right place to go. >> you if you've been >> if you if you've been sexually assaulted. you're absolutely right. the place to go the police. you can go is to the police. but you can understand women thinking, do i want through a trial at want to go through a trial at the of this ? and so will the the end of this? and so will the police believe me? well, there's

m atters. matters. >> if you ever get trial by television or guilt by akua nafion television or guilt by akua nation that day , my freedom dies nation that day, my freedom dies , which is actually the ethos that russell brand has been talking about on his channels for a while. >> we're joined now by any excuse to show margaret, i just say about that, though, you see miss thatcher would not have been a fan of russell brand's. >> let me tell you that for a start. on a personal level, no, on a personal level, she'd have thought he was loathsome. >> i think she's a bit deeper than that. >> well, i knew her like >> well, i knew her and like you, have not liked you, she would have not liked russell brand at all. also russell brand at all. but also mrs. thatcher have wanted mrs. thatcher would have wanted as a lawyer, as a lawyer, as a lawyer. she have wanted lawyer. she would have wanted women who allege they were women who. who allege they were raped sexually abused by raped or sexually abused by a very famous television personality their day . personality to have their day. and they haven't got the and if they haven't got the courage both, and if courage to do both, and if they're willing, they're courage to do both, and if theywilling willing, they're courage to do both, and if theywilling because they'ree not willing because they're scared to going police, scared of to going the police, if the media to expose if it takes the media to expose it all well good. we are

it all well and good. we are joined now by big brother spin off big russell brand hosted. >> you weren't the host of big brother . >> you weren't the host of big brother. you're >> you weren't the host of big brother . you're not >> you weren't the host of big brother. you're not a spin off. i think we're all spinning off a bit today, aren't we? ashlene, you were on the program with russell brand when he was hosting big brother's. russell brand when he was hosting big brother's . what was hosting big brother's. what was it called? big mouth. thank you very much. appropriately named big person for the job. big mouth . what was your experience mouth. what was your experience of him? how did you find him ? of him? how did you find him? >> eccentric , engaging, funny , >> eccentric, engaging, funny, funny. a lot of charisma . um, funny. a lot of charisma. um, you know, i didn't feel any sort of predatory energy from him, but that was just my personal experience. obviously, these poor women have have experienced something else. but i'm with you allegedly. that. allegedly i'm with you in the sense that i don't necessarily agree with trial by media. i think that things should go to court and things should go to court and things should go to court and things should be proven and obviously, the person in question be able to defend his

case. so it's just awful. i watched a program and i just was devastated for those women. i've beenin devastated for those women. i've been in a similar situation myself so i could my empathy was, you know, sky high. >> in what sense were you in a similar situation? >> well , i similar situation? >> well, i don't want to go into too much detail. >> what can you tell us? >> what can you tell us? >> sorry, what can you tell us? so i was just in a in a relationship with somebody who who pushed the boundaries way too. i said no , no, in too. i said no, no, in a situation and no wasn't taken as no . so of course i 100% no. so of course i 100% understand how these women feel . it'sjust understand how these women feel . it's just awful for everyone. but i don't agree with trial by media. >> yeah . the and of course part >> yeah. the and of course part of what we've talked about this a lot in the program today is that women find it very difficult to go to the police. they find it very difficult to talk that they've talk about the fact that they've been abused. >> yeah, didn't so i didn't.

>> yeah, i didn't so i didn't. so i understand that. so i can understand that. >> didn't you? >> and why didn't you? >> and why didn't you? >> because just thought, you >> because i just thought, you know, i mean, i was in a long term relationship with this person. it's people are not going to take it seriously. but i know exactly what happened . i know exactly what happened. i'm a conversation with i'm having a conversation with that person and explaining, do you realise what you did? do you realise that that was, you know, wrong , wrong? he then in wrong, wrong? he then in hindsight could say yes and apologise. so for me, i got my closure . closure. >> or do you think in terms of not necessarily in terms of the law, but in terms of the media, that the complainant in this situation should retain their anonymity? or do you think that the journalists should have encouraged them to put their names and faces to the broadcast? because that does then allow other people who might have been their witnesses to come forward personally, if it was me, i would have. >> i say things with my chest out, which for want of a better phrase, i personally wouldn't

feel that i should be anonymous because i'm going to speak my truth and hopefully it can help a lot of others. but not everyone feels the same as me, so i can't speak for these women or on their behalf. but as i just keep repeating myself, i just keep repeating myself, i just think it should be done in a court of law and anonymity has been at the heart of rape investigations for the victim , investigations for the victim, be they male or female, but predominantly female, because if they were to be exposed with their identity, even fewer people, even fewer women would would come forward . would come forward. >> that's been the convention in this country for decades. >> yeah, that's a very good point. personally me, i don't feel shame or shame or guilt. like it's not my fault. i'm more angry. but a lot of women don't feel the same as it's an interesting word because i think that's where that initial anonymity in these cases came from the idea decades old, from was the idea a decades old, old idea that it was old fashioned idea that it was shameful to raped. shameful to be raped. >> yeah. i think that's a >> yeah. and i think that's a very outdated concept. >> i'm not sure that women

>> now, i'm not sure that women who've would not who've been raped would not think that. >> well, they think >> well, they shouldn't think it's shameful, i think they do. >> but i think they probably do. >> but i think they probably do. >> well, shouldn't because >> well, they shouldn't because they've and they've done nothing wrong and they've done nothing wrong and they their shame as they don't want their shame as they don't want their shame as they experience tv they would experience it on tv and radio. they would experience it on tv ancthey). they would experience it on tv ancthey shouldn't. >> they shouldn't. >> they shouldn't. >> shouldn't feel shame >> they shouldn't. >> as ouldn't feel shame >> they shouldn't. >> as you n't feel shame >> they shouldn't. >> as you said,el shame >> they shouldn't. >> as you said,el s not e because as you said, it's not their fault. you know , it's their fault. you know, it's there should be no shame felt. but perhaps they feel shame of how they'll be looked at from other people . as i say, it's other people. as i say, it's a very old fashioned concept, though, isn't it, in an era where female sexuality is normalised? >> now, when we it's not, you know, but politically, there's absolutely no pressure in this country for the laws to change, for women to give up their anonymity in if they make. >> yeah, i don't think they should be. >> i think each woman each man evenin >> i think each woman each man even in this kind of case, should be able to keep that animal. i know it's a difficult word. >> nobody knows who they are if they want, because as i say, not everybody feels the same. i think i would i would have the same passion. i think because we live in a media world now where

and social media world and and a social media world and everyone's got everyone's a reporter camera. i think reporter with a camera. i think there argument those there is an argument that those who also be who are accused should also be able to retain their anonymity now such time that they now until such time that they are used as well. >> yeah, i, i think so as well. but yeah, i'd have to say i agree with that. >> just to go back to russell, because as we started, i mean, was good company ? i didn't was he good company? i didn't really keep a lot of company with him . with him. >> i remember always being amazed when he's when i see him say my name because you forget. you forget that you're on tv. you forget that you're on tv. you forget that you're on tv. you forget that you know, this person would know who you are. he was engaging. person would know who you are. he was engaging . funny, as i he was engaging. funny, as i said before , tanya was saying he said before, tanya was saying he was on with us earlier. >> he's back in a bit later. she said she she was amazed. see how many women when she saw him in a social situation through themselves. >> oh, my god. let me tell you, there was a whole subculture back then. my friends also , we back then. my friends also, we had messenger . they'd

had blackberry messenger. they'd have messages sent to them . have messages sent to them. right. this football is going to be this tonight. this be at this club tonight. this celebrity to be this celebrity is going to be at this club tonight. have club tonight. you would have like people worked in the like people that worked in the club up the celebrities club grassing up the celebrities to would specifically to girls who would specifically get ready, get dressed up and make a beeline. i never quite understood it, if i'm honest , understood it, if i'm honest, but i'd still go along. understood it, if i'm honest, but i'd still go along . just but i'd still go along. just just to get a basically, because i said, i'm so sorry on daytime tv that you've that you've heard that or maybe a wedding ring, maybe longer term . maybe longer term. >> i'm sorry. >> i'm sorry. >> i'm sorry. >> i didn't realise that was a bad word. sorry. yeah, but yeah , they'd literally my friends included, as i say, would go out just to just to. >> but i want to i'm trying to think about a rich bloke, maybe snare a rich bloke. >> there you go. but it never get married. >> no , no. it was just like it >> no, no. it was just like it was just sort of like fun game, right ? right? >> a trophy lover, particularly in those days, of course, you're talking about 20 years ago. >> and god, i feel old. is it that old? is how long ago that old? is that how long ago it when you were on big

brother? >> 17 to 20 years. >> so it is that time. and also russell brand a ticket to russell brand was a ticket to get into a tabloid if get yourself into a tabloid if you were seen when there were a lot of young women who were trying to through trying to break through to television you television or, you know, if you were seen russell brand, were seen with russell brand, you would in the newspaper. you would be in the newspaper. >> very true. >> it's very true. >> it's very true. >> to be clear, that does not mean that anybody deserved to be sexually by sexually assaulted or raped by him. you should be able to message a man, meet him, have a dnnk message a man, meet him, have a drink go back his drink with him, go back to his room be able to say no. >> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> of course. i just feel like that tv companies need to be held a bit more accountable as well, because coming from well, because anyone coming from a especially a place of addiction, especially heroin the heroin addiction, which is the hardest drug to come off the hardest drug to come off in the world, that's they say, world, and that's what they say, going one extreme to then going from one extreme to then another of sex another extreme of sex addiction, you spoke about addiction, which you spoke about openly. i feel like more measures should be put in place to protect . and watch and guide, to protect. and watch and guide, because once you're an addict, you're always an addict of some kind. and if you're swapping drugs for sex, which he openly

admitted he did , then you're admitted he did, then you're going to push the boundaries more and more and more and become more and more extreme, because that's that's the nature of addiction. >> you see, that was what was quite interesting about the documentary, when there were documentary, is when there were people on tv people who worked on this tv programs who said, you know, we didn't put certain people on those were worried those shows. we were worried about in contact with about them being in contact with him, is being weaponized to about them being in contact with him, thatis being weaponized to about them being in contact with him, thatis bwas weaponized to about them being in contact with him, thatis bwas predatory.ed to about them being in contact with him, thatis bwas predatory. i to show that he was predatory. i think shows a duty of care think that shows a duty of care on the part of those programs. >> of 100. i mean, >> duty of care, 100. i mean, a young girl, they didn't have their feelings hurt and be led on someone was famous and on by someone who was famous and was going to ditch them the was going to ditch them for the next woman. yeah i mean, you know, allow a young runner to know, to allow a young runner to be friend, i be sort of his best friend, i watched on the documentary that to screams to me just screams inappropriate. needed inappropriate. and there needed to care. to be more duty of care. >> you there is today? >> do you think there is today? i actually i can definitely feel a massive difference. >> there's been >> i agree. there's been a massive and i don't see massive shift and i don't see anything like that. no >> now, when i thought one of the things that was striking from when from the documentaries when channel footage of channel 4 used the footage of him i think him and his i think his co—presenter of the

co—presenter sort of taking the mickey of the newsreader on mickey out of the newsreader on his bbc radio two show and saying how she and that saying how sexy she was and that you don't see that on sanchez is gorgeous. but it would be totally inappropriate for andrew pierce anything about how pierce to say anything about how gorgeous is. and pierce to say anything about how g(just»us is. and pierce to say anything about how g(just wouldn't is. and pierce to say anything about how g(just wouldn't happen is. and pierce to say anything about how g(just wouldn't happen now. and it just wouldn't happen now. >> no, right. >> no, no, you're right. >> no, no, you're right. >> and was very it was also >> and it was very it was also very crude he said. oh, it very crude what he said. oh, it was disgusting. >> i was revolting i >> i was revolting when i watched back the programme. i just was. >> illegal e illegal illegal. >> it wasn't no. >> it wasn't no. >> would you like to go back on big brother? >> mean, if the pay >> i mean, honey, if the pay cheque was right, i'm not doing it ever again . it for free ever again. >> was it for free then? you paid? >> i got paid £30 a day. no no. >> i got paid £30 a day. no no. >> is that what he used to pay on big brother? >> £30 a day. >> £30 a day. >> did you make money out >> wow. did you make money out of though? oh yeah, of it, though? oh yeah, definitely. well definitely. right. well afterwards. yeah. i mean, you got good agent. got a good agent. >> changing oh, >> life changing money. oh, good. invested extremely well. >> well done, you. so if you go back or the jungle next time. >> oh, yes, please . >> oh, yes, please. >> oh, yes, please. >> but your agent is going to get you a decent whack this time. >> oh, yeah, definitely.

>> oh, yeah, definitely. >> i've earned it. 17 years in the business. >> she is. here she is. if you want to ask. >> she's so lovely of you to come in. >> f. f— >> and thanks for having me. you're looking great. >> and horgan—wallace >> ashley and horgan—wallace there. to come, the there. right? still to come, the government online safety government is online safety bill is become law today. is expected to become law today. some have some people still have strong concerns the legislation. concerns about the legislation. we're going discussing we're going to be discussing what those be. this is what those might be. this is britain's

patrick christys on gb news. i'm gb news radio .

gb news radio. >> it's 1121 on gb news radio. >> it's1121 on britain's newsroom with gb news with andrew pierce and bev turner. well, it's been eight months since the scottish secretary, alister jack blocked the scottish recognition scottish gender recognition reform bill. this was controversial legislation which sought to make it easier for youngsters, teenagers obtain youngsters, teenagers to obtain a gender recognition certificate . it had a sex change, but instead it ignited a heated debate at a political commentator and former snp member stewart crawford joins us now . stewart morning to you. now. stewart morning to you. this is actually what this really now is about, is a battle between the westminster parliament and the scottish parliament. this is the first time since devolution that the westminster government has intervened to say what the scottish government is doing is wrong . wrong. >> yes, that's absolutely right. i mean, the section 35 order is part of the 1998 scotland act, which set up the scottish parliament or restored the scottish parliament, if you prefer , and it hasn't been prefer, and it hasn't been invoked since. i think it's

important, though, to note that the snp signed up to that act and therefore by default or design also signed up to section 35. so they can't really complain that they're being ambushed because that part of the legislation has always been extant . listening the legislation has always been extant. listening and the legislation has always been extant . listening and watching. extant. listening and watching. >> watching us now is exactly what this snp bill was going to do and why it caused such outrage in scotland and certainly and caused the government to act in the way it did in parliament. it. government to act in the way it did in parliament. it . yes, indeed. >> i mean , i think that's the >> i mean, i think that's the i mean, it is an example of scottish exceptionalism. again, that time and time again, the scottish government seeks to do things differently to the way that they are done elsewhere in the uk and there are many, many examples of that . but this examples of that. but this perhaps is one of the more egregious ones and one which which alastair jack, the scottish secretary, chose to

block from receiving royal assent. and that's what it's all about. assent. and that's what it's all about . but if you listen to about. but if you listen to humza yousaf, the first minister, it's not really about the legislation anymore. it's about the principle of westminster being able to stop up legislation which has been legally passed in the scottish parliament, but which impinges on aspects of legislation which is outside the scottish parliament's con competency . parliament's con competency. >> kenny because as you say, they signed up to this act all they signed up to this act all the way back when devolution was brought in in scotland . so and brought in in scotland. so and just because westminster has intervened , i mean, it's the intervened, i mean, it's the first and only time they've ever done it. it's not as if they're england is westminster is pushing its weight around with the scottish parliament all the time. this is a one off. >> well, yes, indeed it is a one off. and of course, the argument from humza yousaf and the snp is that if it happens once , it will that if it happens once, it will happen again, which any student

, a mature student of philosophy, will tell you is a logical fallacy . that is not the logical fallacy. that is not the case at all. it's very much a political thing. it's part and parcel of the snp's long standing desire to take scotland out of the united kingdom and i think although i would not presume what the judgement and the court's in either edinburgh or the uk supreme court will be, should it come to that. i think the snp is on a bit of a lost cause here, but the devolution an act was very it was explicit that it gives the government in westminster the power to do this in exception circumstances . yes in exception circumstances. yes indeed. and the scottish secretary alister jack has decided that these are exceptional circumstances and it's now a matter of the courts to decide whether that is the case or not. it's not really a political argument at the moment . it's a legal argument. and i

think the clever money is on the westminster prevailing in the end . but who knows? i mean , the end. but who knows? i mean, the courts may take a different view altogether. >> just finally, it seems a very odd issue for the snp government to sort of go down fighting to the last ditch. the issue is not an issue in which i would argue they've got huge popular public support in scotland, quite the reverse . reverse. >> that is correct . the scottish >> that is correct. the scottish pubucis >> that is correct. the scottish public is generally against it. the provisions of the gender recognition reform bill, which the details of which you have already covered, but basically just makes it easier for people to transition . born in scotland, to transition. born in scotland, as opposed to the rest of the uk is an indication i'm afraid, that the transgender lobby, which is very vociferous and active , has caught the ear of active, has caught the ear of all political parties in scotland. the bill was passed

with support from all parties, including the conservative party and the. i think that politicians are very, very frightened of getting on the wrong side of that particular lobby. and this is an indication of where it might go when politicians are not prepared to stand up to that sort of aggressive approach , which they aggressive approach, which they get a lot of public support. >> if they did . >> if they did. >> if they did. >> oh, absolutely. i think i mean, you know, i always have a thing called the common sense test. and if you apply common sense to these things , you sense to these things, you usually come up with a pretty realistic and convincing answer to all the problems that are posed in modern life. and i don't think the politicians have appued don't think the politicians have applied the common sense approach to this. and possibly it's approach to this. and possibly wsfime approach to this. and possibly it's time that we had a common sense political party who knows ? >> 7- >> you 7— >> you could ? >> you could lead 7 >> you could lead it. stuart well, i have dipped my toe into politics for over 20 years and

failed miserably , so i think failed miserably, so i think i'll probably hand that baton to somebody else too much common sense. >> that's the problem. stuart former snp member stuart crawford there right . let's have crawford there right. let's have a look at what you have been saying this morning. we're talking about air source heat pumps and net zero. georgia said new hair, new pumps may new hair, new heat pumps may soon available for £5,000. soon be available for £5,000. this is as john grant said earlier, where are we? earlier, but where are we? pensioners are supposed find pensioners are supposed to find that money and even then that kind of money and even then we wouldn't live enough to we wouldn't live long enough to make a viable proposition. make it a viable proposition. >> and says really are >> and who says they really are going be £5,000? going to be £5,000? >> i'm very sceptical about that. a lot that. i think there are a lot more that now. they're much more than that now. they're much more than that now. they're much more we've only more than that. and we've only got three years. by 2020. i don't buy it, susan says. >> just listening to john, i mentioned and jim dale , who we mentioned and jim dale, who we spoke to earlier, makes me more and that it's all a and more think that it's all a big people are big con that certain people are making of money from. making pots of money from. that's zero. no one can that's net zero. no one can control only mother control the weather, only mother nature. we've reached nature. also, once we've reached net next? have net zero, what next? we'll have no economy, nothing except for the odd state agents selling luxury .

>> i mean, he wasn't really a scare story. it was he said it. >> he didn't say it. >> he didn't say it. >> he didn't say it. >> he said was a burden >> he said it was a burden sharing deal. >> there would be a deal deal until he's been sharing . well, i until he's been sharing. well, i mean, we would we would take more of the burden of migrants from syria. >> would take some we would >> we would take some we would take some migrants. >> it wasn't it doesn't mean 100,000 migrants. it may mean a few. it may not be any. but the whole thing is, if you can all be £100. >> so if you're doing a deal, if you're doing a deal, you've got to give something to both sides. so you always take more. >> if we. well, it's not a deal, is it? >> but it never works that way with the eu, does it. whatever. when they don't accept the deal, they take a mile. >> that's the problem. >> that's the problem. >> and that's why we can't we >> and that's why we can't if we if we up trying to do a if we end up trying to do a better deal the eu, we will better deal with the eu, we will have take eu laws and that have to take on eu laws and that was the whole point of brexit. >> no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. well said, tanya. i no. tanya well said, tanya. i mean the second bit of this, which i think is the eu law bit,

is that the trade and the trade cooperation agreed and comes up for in, in 2025. for renegotiation in, in 2025. >> that was something set in train by boris johnson renegotiation . it's a yeah it is renegotiation. it's a yeah it is a review. it's a tweak so an example of renegotiate ation. well i mean keir starmer is talking about a renegotiation , talking about a renegotiation, but the is to tweak some of but the idea is to tweak some of the things, the anomalies that have gone wrong. an example would that they sort would have been that they sort it with the, with the, with it out with the, with the, with the windsor agreement. windsor framework was when you imported cream crackers a vet had to sign on them off because they contain a very small dairy content . this a very small dairy content. this was quite ludicrous. obviously the nonsense of the eu. >> yeah, it was not stupid. >> yeah, it was not stupid. >> and so when we got the new agreement with northern ireland whereby we would actually get british sausages into northern ireland, that was one of the things to go. there are loads of those. >> that's what that sort of nonsense existed. nonsense ever existed. >> it's because things >> well, it's because things weren't, done properly weren't, weren't done properly in beginning. i mean brexit

in the beginning. i mean brexit wasn't properly. in the beginning. i mean brexit wasthere's properly. in the beginning. i mean brexit wasthere's lots perly. in the beginning. i mean brexit wasthere's lots of rly. getting >> there's lots of meps getting lots for doing nothing lots of money for doing nothing apart making up stupid apart from making up stupid rules like this. >> it's exactly the reason >> and it's exactly the reason we needed to get out. >> if keir starmer can >> but but if keir starmer can actually improve trade relations with europe, if and i'm not saying that the eu will allow him to, but if he can in 2025, is that not a good idea? >> there is an eu, one of the eu vice presidents said the other day it's not pick and mix with the eu . you're in or you're out. the eu. you're in or you're out. we're out and it may well be that's what the eu will take that's what the eu will take that attitude and say, look, hang on, you've gone for brexit. >> we're not changing anything. what keir starmer not saying what keir starmer is not saying is will try and try and is that he will try and try and reverse brexit. he's not saying we back into a customs union we go back into a customs union at moment or into single at the moment or into a single market. so brexit is here to stay. it's done. there is no question anymore that brexit is don't. >> that's the problem . you know >> that's the problem. you know so much back—pedalling and u—turning and whatever . if u—turning and whatever. if labour get in and it looks like they are going to get in because

they are going to get in because the tories have done such a bad job at the moment. yeah, i think he will try and reverse brexit. i think he will. all in all in name he'll say, oh no, i didn't reverse the will of the people because it is the will of the people. was voted people. that's what was voted for. will in name and for. it will be all in name and we'll just be stuck this we'll just be stuck in this silly bottom again that just works us. and let's be works against us. and let's be honest, you know, there's keir over talking to macron. he over there talking to macron. he is britain. france is no friend of britain. france is no friend of britain. france is friend of britain. they is no friend of britain. they don't about they don't care about us. so they might all smiling and patting might be all smiling and patting each on the back, but it's each other on the back, but it's not going to work for the british that's what british people. and that's what this be about. and this should all be about. and i'd love to know if he talks about behind closed about migrants behind closed doors palace. doors of the elysee palace. i bet doesn't. bet he doesn't. >> bet to love know >> i bet would to love know because know that's not. because they know that's not. >> think will. >> i think he will. >> i think he will. >> well, will never know. >> well, we will never know. >> well, we will never know. >> will never know. >> we will never know. >> we will never know. >> but is behind closed doors, behind the private meeting? >> but is behind closed doors, behinlyeah.private meeting? yeah. yeah. >> is behind closed doors? >> i think that the as he's not prime minister at the moment they didn't want to do the things like the normal pictures at elysee and so on. at the elysee and so on. >> it's stupid isn't it.

than them. so the younger you are , the more adept you are at are, the more adept you are at this. what it does mean is that something like plans to close railway ticket offices. it's terrible. it's appalling . on the terrible. it's appalling. on the on the basis that if you can't buy a ticket on a computer, which is the alternative, because half the ticket machines are broken anyway and it's so if you if there is no human kind of contact there, that's that's really upsetting and difficult for old people. >> this is age uk research that's come up with this. and they found that 46% of the over 65 seconds are unable to complete basic digital tasks required use the internet required to use the internet safely and successfully . 30% of safely and successfully. 30% of those aged 65 to 7469. 69% of those aged 65 to 7469. 69% of those aged 65 to 7469. 69% of those aged 75. and the safety element is quite important, actually. tonya it really is. you can easily walk into a spam site or get hacked or get your identity stolen. >> and i know i know case after case of older that have case of people older that have been have had their money taken away and are just vulnerable to get they get these these

get because they get these these emails that come through. they get things through they think they're official. they click on them. go through their bank them. they go through their bank is it's just horrendous. >> it's so easy. >> makes you think when >> it also makes you think when we the triple lock we talk about the triple lock here. but but that's under attack possibly from the tories. why older people being why why are older people being treated class treated almost like second class citizens? their view citizens? why does their view not count the fact that they're struggling with the internet? that's their fault. that's not their fault. >> no. and i think the pensions thing slightly different thing is a slightly different argument, economic argument, but an economic makes me the pensioners. >> there is there is a culture of dismissive dismiss about anybody older people . anybody of older people. >> yeah, and i think that's probably right mean the probably right. but i mean the answer is don't, don't introduce measures that are going to make life worse for them. hence those ticket offices closing. >> just lose them . >> just lose them. >> just lose them. >> there's a story except that rishi sunak is the biggest technocrat in the world, and every time he comes on telly he talks about how great technology is. can we just talk is. tanya, can we just talk about sperm donors? >> yes. oh, gosh. >> yes. oh, gosh. >> this is really interesting >> this is a really interesting story. >> e! e'— story. i've only got 90s.
