8:05 pm
andits with you until 9 pm. tonight and it's been a very heavy week for a variety of different reasons. but look, it's friday night, so we are going to start with old fashioned row with a good old fashioned row and we're going have and then we're going to have some fun some shameless, some fun with some shameless, light segments. okay light hearted segments. okay let's get going. home secretary suella braverman the suella braverman hit the headunes suella braverman hit the headlines week with her headlines this week with her speech on migration in washington. home secretary washington. the home secretary thinks the international asylum system a complete system needs a complete overhaul. here's a little bit of it. >> any attempt to reform the refugee convention will see you smeared as anti refugee. similar epithets are hurled at anyone who suggests reform of the echr or its court in strasbourg . i or its court in strasbourg. i reject the notion that a country cannot be expected to respect human rights if it is not signed up to an international human rights organisation. okay >> well, i think that the home secretary may well have a point not just on that, but on a variety of different reasons, on a huge amount of what she said. but i know two people who feel completely differently. we've got human lawyer shoaib
8:06 pm
got human rights lawyer shoaib khan and michael walker, contributing editor at novara media. good evening , gentlemen. media. good evening, gentlemen. thank very for thank you very, very much for joining me. now, look, shoaib , joining me. now, look, shoaib, has you got a point we need to change the definition of what a refugee so that lawyers like refugee is so that lawyers like you can't keep coining it in with spurious claims. you can't keep coining it in witiyou urious claims. you can't keep coining it in witiyou know claims. you can't keep coining it in witiyou know ,:laims. you can't keep coining it in witiyou know , iaims. you can't keep coining it in witiyou know , i mean i mean, >> you know, i mean i mean, i don't think we need to you know, it's been decades, 70 years. we've had it. it's working well . where isn't working well is . where it isn't working well is because governments don't know how work well. but how to make it work well. but even the home secretary's even from the home secretary's point not really point of view, i'm not really sure she's saying . sure what she's saying. initially, it all about initially, it was all about the definition wrong. to definition is wrong. we have to rip the refugee convention rip up the refugee convention and half of the you know, and then half of the you know, the half of speech is the second half of the speech is all lefty loony liberal all about lefty loony liberal judges who interpret too judges who interpret it too broadly . so what does she want? broadly. so what does she want? is she actually saying there's a problem the convention or problem with the convention or is it the judges? and then she yes, she literally saying yes, she literally is saying that exactly what she's that that's exactly what she's saying . that that's exactly what she's say show it's good to see >> show him. it's good to see that you've been paying attention. michael, i'll throw it to now, look, one it over to you. now, look, one of other bits that she said
8:07 pm
of the other bits that she said that caused amount that caused a huge amount of controversy was about members allegedly of the lgb plus community who may well end up being order to being making that up in order to get asylum . how on earth could get asylum. how on earth could we prove somebody was gay? we prove if somebody was gay? >> i'll get on to that in >> yeah, i'll get on to that in one moment. first of all, i did just want to mention i know this is different for you being here on a friday night. it's also different for me because i always look up who i'm going to be normally some be on with. it's normally some right wing crackpot. i discovered i was be on discovered i was going to be on with a human rights lawyer. i'm like, what the hell is going on? >> i think it's more balanced than this, isn't it. than newsnight. this, isn't it. you've heebie jeebies than newsnight. this, isn't it. you'vofcom heebiejeebies than newsnight. this, isn't it. you'vofcom today. bie jeebies from ofcom today. >> talk about that claim. >> let's talk about that claim. so migrants, mean, we so lgbt migrants, i mean, we talked about this earlier in the week. in fact, i think this whole a distraction. whole thing is a distraction. and that is and the reason i say that is because the number of people who mentioned were lgbt when it mentioned they were lgbt when it came asylum claims last year came to asylum claims last year was so if what was 1.5% of them. so if what suella braverman cares about is reducing the number asylum reducing the number of asylum seekers coming to the uk now, i don't want to that, but if don't want to do that, but if that's what she wants to do, then this has nothing to do with
8:08 pm
that. what this seems that. soto me, what this seems like an attention grabbing like is an attention grabbing stunt try raise fears. stunt to try and raise fears. one about lgbt people lying about their sexuality, and two, about their sexuality, and two, about idea. about their sexuality, and two, abo but idea. about their sexuality, and two, abo but the dea. about their sexuality, and two, abo but the point the point is, >> but the point the point is, michael, is whilst michael, is yeah, whilst it might be a small number, michael, we can't actually prove it can as gary lineker it can we as gary lineker evidence with a rather bizarre tweet earth would tweet saying how on earth would you somebody's gay? and you prove if somebody's gay? and that fair, the point that is to be fair, the point that is to be fair, the point that making, isn't it? that she's making, isn't it? >> well, i think the problem there so when people apply there is so when people apply for this for refugee status in this country issues, you country for lgbt issues, you don't come say, don't just come and say, i'm 937- don't just come and say, i'm gay. often has happened is gay. often what has happened is that has suffered that person has suffered persecution that country. so that person has suffered persoftenwn that country. so that person has suffered persoften be that country. so that person has suffered persoften be thatt country. so that person has suffered pers often be that the untry. so that person has suffered pers often be that the person 0 it'll often be that the person has been as lgbt and there has been outed as lgbt and there has been outed as lgbt and there has been outed as lgbt and there has been some sort of campaign against them. so there often will be evidence. and will be lots of evidence. and i think know, we normally think we you know, we normally accept can accept that it's you can evidence having a long term relationship. know, you relationship. you know, you don't putting cameras don't want to be putting cameras in but i in people's bedrooms. but i think that we have think the idea that we have to remove lgbt issues from from asylum is just having everything back to front. >> okay. shoaib, multiculturalism has failed. discuss >> don't i mean, again, discuss >mean, don't i mean, again, discuss >mean, likeon't i mean, again, discuss >mean, like lotsi mean, again, discuss >mean, like lots oflean, again, discuss >mean, like lots of peoplejain, discuss >mean, like lots of people have i mean, like lots of people have
8:09 pm
discussed. is discussed. i mean, in a way, is it the success of multicultural ism? have people like her ism? we have people like her leading in fact, you leading or is it, in fact, you know, do we have. that's a good point. >> that's a good point. that's a good point. >> failure. >> failure. >> let me let me ask this show. show to interrupt you show sorry to interrupt you immediately, if you raise a immediately, but if you raise a really good point, which is why i'm right, got huge i'm doing it right, she got huge amount pushback on this amount of pushback on this and a lot of that actually was from people who also ethnic people who are also ethnic minorities kind of minorities for saying kind of really that they think that she should a certain way should think a certain way really. and i wondered, really. and i just wondered, i wonder thought about wonder what you thought about that. do you think that's fair? is she the definition of a successful multicultural individual to, individual who has managed to, you family has come to you know, her family has come to britain done rather or britain and done rather well or or not. >> that's the point. i mean, >> so that's the point. i mean, you problem taking you know, if her problem taking her premise, her on her premise, multiculturalism has failed, her on her premise, multiwyoulralism has failed, her on her premise, multiwyoulralismjust failed, her on her premise, multiwyoulralismjust look d, her on her premise, multiwyoulralismjust look around then, you know, just look around then, you know, just look around the cabinet. is she saying that's a failure? is she saying that's a failure? is she saying that's failure system, that's a failure of our system, that's a failure of our system, that have risen that people like her have risen to so that's just a to the top? so that's just a question i she needs to question i think she needs to answer. but because i don't believe i think, know, believe i think, you know, diversity needs to be valued. immigrants huge immigrants make a huge contribution uk that contribution to the uk that
8:10 pm
needs be valued. so no, needs to be valued. and so no, of course, multiculturalism hasn't secondly, of course, multiculturalism hasn' if secondly, of course, multiculturalism hasn' if there secondly, of course, multiculturalism hasn'if there are secondly, of course, multiculturalism hasn'if there are problems, even if there are problems, that's we don't allow that's because we don't allow them integrate, know , them to integrate, you know, also speech, she said, you also in a speech, she said, you know, people coming know, all these people coming here, then they benefits. here, then they claim benefits. well, claim well, of course they do claim benefits. they're not allowed to work. why asylum seekers work. why are asylum seekers not allowed know allowed to work? well, you know , in detention centres, you put them just we have them in hotels just we have spoken before show. >> have we spoken before >> we have we have spoken before show. you know, you didn't show. and, you know, you didn't even me, to be even make the point to me, to be fair, that even if somebody broke into your house and you found there found them sitting there at about 4:00 in the morning, you might police, but you might call the police, but you wouldn't necessarily even want that you are that person detained. so you are possibly most liberal person possibly the most liberal person that i have ever come across. i think i think that's think because i think that's quite that's quite rare quite a that's quite a rare thing. michael. i'm going ask thing. michael. i'm going to ask you, that multicultural you, is it that multicultural ism allowed to work? ism hasn't been allowed to work? we allowed to we haven't allowed people to integrate reality that integrate or is the reality that integrate or is the reality that in certain communities they just won't integrate now ? won't integrate now? >> i mean, i think this discussion has sort of come out of nowhere now. i i came of nowhere now. i mean, i came from very multicultural part from a very multicultural part of north—east and my of north—east london, and my school diverse,
8:11 pm
school was incredibly diverse, sort black people, third sort of black people, third south asian, then a third white people didn't really realise racism until i was about racism existed until i was about 18 everyone got along so 18 because everyone got along so well. it seems to me that well. and it seems to me that this is really people trying to make where there make problems where there aren't. now maybe some aren't. now maybe there are some problems integration in problems with integration in parts country, parts of the country, but the reason i think ethnicity of reason i think the ethnicity of suella sometimes suella braverman is sometimes brought is not to say that if brought up is not to say that if you of a certain ethnic you are of a certain ethnic minority background, have to minority background, you have to have i think have certain opinions. i think what are saying is it's what people are saying is it's suella braverman has just as many be against many rights to be against multicultural ism as anyone else in country. but the in the country. but the fact that so many people that we do have so many people from in the from ethnic minorities in the cabinet does suggest that integration going integration is actually going quite often quite well. and what you often get response people get in response is people saying, oh, yes, but this is this is because suella braverman saying, oh, yes, but this is th integrateuse suella braverman saying, oh, yes, but this is th integrate into suella braverman saying, oh, yes, but this is th integrate into british iraverman is integrate into british society. i saw a really society. now, i saw a really good response from a journalist sort saying, yes, that's good response from a journalist sort but|ying, yes, that's good response from a journalist sort but my], yes, that's good response from a journalist sort but my granddadt's good response from a journalist sort but my granddad wasn't true. but my granddad wasn't when over, he when my granddad came over, he spoke he didn't speak spoke yiddish. he didn't speak any not any english. he was not integrated at all but me. now i'm a times columnist, right? so the idea that there are some new immigrant community where
8:12 pm
someone doesn't english, someone doesn't speak english, fine. and fine. they're kids. will and their kids integrated their kids will be integrated and be a similar and it will be a similar multicultural environment from where was brilliant. >> show what suella braverman said was that the ovennhelming majority of who come to majority of people who come to britain illegally never end up paying britain illegally never end up paying back in tax. what they've taken from the state under the illegal migration bill. pretty much anybody who comes across the channel will be classed as an illegal migrant. therefore, none of them will actually end up being a net benefit very few of them will end up being a net benefit to britain. is that not true? >> of course that's not true. and that's, you know, literally every piece of research carried out proved opposite. so, every piece of research carried omean proved opposite. so, every piece of research carried omean ,)roved opposite. so, every piece of research carried omean , that's opposite. so, every piece of research carried omean , that's the opposite. so, every piece of research carried omean , that's the thingiite. so, every piece of research carried omean , that's the thing about, i mean, that's the thing about this speech. obviously we knew it was going to be rhetoric. obviously, you obviously, we know it's you know, her leadership know, mainly her her leadership campaign . but the point is, even campaign. but the point is, even the that , know, the the facts that, you know, the few and statistics that few facts and statistics that were they're really were there that they're really not facts or by not borne out by the facts or by the research . every piece the research. every single piece of carried quotes of research carried out quotes some economic benefits or shows that immigrants are a net.
8:13 pm
>> all right. okay, fine. quote, sir, just give me go on. give me the name of a bit of research. >> oh, well, the. you said almost every i mean, and that's the point because they're the whole point because they're not necessarily over not necessarily reason over decades, researcher decades, every single researcher said immigrants are said that immigrants are economically a net benefit to this country. >> you're mixing it up there, though, aren't you. from from immigrants to migrants. immigrants to illegal migrants. but both you, thank you very but both of you, thank you very much. can can i genuinely much. can can i can i genuinely thank you for being the top. thank you for being at the top. i tell distressed, i can tell you're distressed, michael, got michael, but we've got we've got other shows go on. so we're other shows that go on. so we're out time. out of time. out of time. we're out of time. all right. take care. take care, guys. have a good friday night. all i'll in all right. i'll see you in a bit. thank you very much. that is khan, course, is shoaib khan, of course, immigration lawyer, rights immigration lawyer, human rights lawyer, should say, and lawyer, i should say, and michael from novara michael walker from novara media. to media. now it's time for you to meet brilliant panel this meet my brilliant panel this evening. broadcaster evening. we've got broadcaster charlie lamdin. he's here on political lin is political commentator lin mei is on her way. isn't here on her way. so isn't here yet. remarkable doubt we'll be remarkable but no doubt we'll be getting lot of stick getting rather a lot of stick when she does late. when she does rock up late. train strikes probably kicking in early. at least that's in a day early. at least that's her story. she's sticking to
