ahead of joe biden in the polls . it's a trump presidency in a years . it's a trump presidency in a year's time. now inevitable . year's time. now inevitable. plus, prince andrew will not budge from the royal lodge escalating his cold war with king charles. we'll get reaction from the queen of us, showbiz royal and political reporting, kinsey schofield . plus, we've kinsey schofield. plus, we've got tomorrow's front pages at 1030. that is the sunday papers with three top pundits who have been told what to say and who don't follow the script. tonight, broadcast author and journalist emma wolf, a brand new star on mark dolan. tonight, entrepreneur and former brexit party candidate mike green and a good friend of the show , good friend of the show, podcaster and commentator lewis oakley . tonight, i'll be asking oakley. tonight, i'll be asking the pundits as she kicks off labour conference. is angela rayner right that misogyny or extreme sexism should be a hate crime? plus we'll be hearing about the woman who gave up looking for mr right and instead spent £10,000 marrying herself .

spent £10,000 marrying herself. plus, the most important part of the show. your emails , they come the show. your emails, they come straight to my laptop. mark at cbnnews.com . so a big two hours cbnnews.com. so a big two hours to come. lots to get through. we start with my big opinion . on start with my big opinion. on these are dark times . indeed. these are dark times. indeed. the telegraph report that police have wrongly labelled hundreds of suspected rapists as women , of suspected rapists as women, despite the home secretary saying they should not do so . saying they should not do so. figures obtained under the freedom of information act show for the first time the scale of police adopting the self—declared gender of alleged sex attackers . over the last sex attackers. over the last four years, police forces have referred 264 males, which is biological men identifying as women to the crown prosecution service to consider a charge of rape. a further 209 suspects have been recorded as being of an unknown sex. in other words,

non—binary , me, whatever that non—binary, me, whatever that means . by law, rape can only be means. by law, rape can only be committed by a biological male, but still these monsters are being labelled woman by pc plod . this is progress. is it? where to start? well i'd start with the culture of the police who are now so schooled in the politically correct scripture. they're comfortable categorising male rapists as women. this isn't a mistake or an oversight or an overzealous woke officer gone rogue. this appears to be policy to call a biological male accused of the rape of a woman is a profound insult to all women. it's a slander on their name. it is a libel on half of the population . and can you the population. and can you imagine how the alleged female victims feel being told by the police who were there to protect them that they were assaulted by a lady just let that one sink in

for a moment. rape is one of the worst crimes imaginable. soto gaslight the victims and tell them they've been attacked by a woman is bizarre, dystopian and frankly, wicked . but that's the frankly, wicked. but that's the extreme end of woke for you with its turning upside down of reality. it's denial of human biology and its twisted ideology in regards to race relations and much beyond . it is touched with much beyond. it is touched with evil . how much beyond. it is touched with evil. how ironic, much beyond. it is touched with evil . how ironic, therefore , evil. how ironic, therefore, that these people are often characterised as the good guys. the be kind crowd you call this out for what it is and you're a bad person, right wing or something. just shut up and go away . this nonsense doesn't even away. this nonsense doesn't even comply with the law. the home secretary herself said earlier this year that in no instance was it biologically or legally right for a rapist to be described as she all of this comes as a result of policies which allow people to decide which allow people to decide which gender they are. criminals are now gaming the system like

eilidh bryson in scotland , a eilidh bryson in scotland, a double rapist, a fully intact male, accommodated in a women's prison. you couldn't make it up. that story was instrumental in bringing down nicola sturgeon by cancelling women. the former scottish first minister cancelled herself. let me tell you, the public are sick and tired of this woke bs and their anger will be felt at the ballot box. these words from the prime minister this week were welcome and arguably the highlight of his of his speech. take a listen to sunak in action on wednesday i >> -- >> he shouldn't get bullied into believing that people can be any sex they want to be. they can't. a man is a man and a woman is a woman. that's just common sense i >> and it's also common sense to say that rapists are not women. they never have been. and they never will be welcome to the clown world of 2023 where you have to point that out. what a time to be alive .

time to be alive. your reaction to the news that scores of biological men who identify as female have been logged as women rapists by the police? margaret gb news rt.com. let's get reaction now from my top pundits. broadcast author and journalist emma wolf on entrepreneur and former brexit party candidate, a brand new star on mark dolan tonight mike green and podcaster and commentator lewis oakley . can i commentator lewis oakley. can i start with you ? because, emma, start with you? because, emma, you are a woman, a biological female. your reaction to this story? >> it's utterly ludicrous to categorise rapists as women. >> it's offensive as you say. it's offensive to women . i can't it's offensive to women. i can't even imagine how the female victims of these rapists must feel. it's gaslighting . it's feel. it's gaslighting. it's evil. everything you said, it's twisted ideology and it's utterly wrong. indeed >> and it's worrying that this

is happening on quite a large scale within the police . this is scale within the police. this is not just individual that's not just one individual that's gone the looks of it. gone rogue by the looks of it. it appears be cultural, it it appears to be cultural, it appears to be cultural. >> and i think this goes to the heart what's wrong with our heart of what's wrong with our police force the moment when police force at the moment when we being we have 15 year olds being stabbed to school. stabbed on their way to school. we serious crime going on we have serious crime going on out police have out there. the police have actually taken their eye off the ball. focusing on ball. they have been focusing on ludicrous s ludicrous developments like this whereby you that a criminal's you accept that a criminal's assessment of themselves as a woman when they are a man, when they have done the most vile thing, the most violent thing you can do to a woman, which is rape, i would say apart from obviously killing them, murder that they are accepting that. and i just you go back to the victims and how they must feel and indeed, worrying, isn't it, mike, police appear to mike, that the police appear to be instructions from be ignoring instructions from the home secretary? >> well , absolutely. >> well, absolutely. >> well, absolutely. >> i mean, i'd love to get the people who allow these changes in law for any aggressor or rapist to self declare.

>> you know, i don't mind what people's choices are in terms of genden people's choices are in terms of gender, but to me, if they were born a male and they're still biology, basically a male, they've had no transition . if they've had no transition. if they've had no transition. if they commit any act against a woman, i think they should lose any right to continue that transition. and i'd love to see the people who are changing these laws in front of people who have been raped and make them what it's like to them realise what it's like to allow that rapist to treat allow that the rapist to treat themselves like some kind of victim , as if they need some victim, as if they need some kind of special treatment once they commit this abhorrent crime , um, they lose all their rights to have any choice in their own , in how they're treated in our system. it's just appalling . system. it's just appalling. i've got a 21 and a 24 year old daughter here and i can tell you now if loses my faith in the police that they're mucking around , they're they're becoming around, they're they're becoming tea stewards for climate activists . they're not activists. they're not responding to burglary and shoplift , eating that's killing

shoplift, eating that's killing many retail businesses . but here many retail businesses. but here they are mucking around with allowing real aggressors to decide what they want to be known as and seen as. >> lewis, i wonder whether this story brings the reputation of the police into disrepute, particularly in relation to the heinous crime of rape. >> yeah, i think that there is some truth to that and i would echo what the other pundits have said horrific is said about how horrific rape is and you know, we need to and how we you know, we need to tackle do think, though, tackle it. i do think, though, that this is one of those alarmist stories gender alarmist stories around gender and trans that there is not exactly accurate because we know that we've got new legislation coming in that is basically saying, look, if you are a trans woman and you have committed a sexual offence or if you have a penis, you're going to a male jail and the majority of trans women are in male jails already. so this is already happening. it's not that we woke up today and suddenly thought about it, so i do take a bit of issue with how this is kind of raw, riled up as like an anti—trans thing,

or at least that we're we're mad and we're we're allowing people said we're rapists . said we're rapists. >> in fact, we both said that we specifically are not anti—trans. >> we're not calling anyone here anti—trans you decide. >> decide to change your >> if you decide to change your name and pronouns and good name and your pronouns and good luck you. luck to you. >> know it's a free world, >> you know it's a free world, especially grown especially if you're a grown adult. but i wonder whether, yes, a small number of yes, this is a small number of cases, don't call this cases, but if we don't call this out, then there will be more cases like this. and that's the point. why we have to point. that's why we have to draw it. draw attention to it. >> i think to your point, >> well, i think to your point, what saying is in what i'm saying is in legislation this shouldn't legislation like this shouldn't be happening. >> about the police >> so it is about the police that enforcing it and it's that are enforcing it and it's not helpful to trans people or other lgbt people me when other lgbt people like me when they they are enforcing they when they are not enforcing they when they are not enforcing the because then it the law, because then it reflects on everyone else. reflects badly on everyone else. >> i think it reflects badly on. >> i think it reflects badly on. >> i think it reflects badly on. >> i see that. but then i do think this situation we prison is not a good system for stamping this out altogether because you still have men that are raped in men's prisons. you have women that are raped in women's so i do think

women's prisons. so i do think the whole thing needs to be looked and that legal looked at. and that legal definition as well, definition of rape as well, because not as because women, although not as common, but women common, obviously, but women can rape men, too. >> go. well look, what >> there you go. well look, what is your thought on this market? gb news dot com. coming up next in big story, we'll bring in the big story, we'll bring you latest on tragic you the latest on the tragic scenes playing scenes of violence playing out in voices in in israel with voices in the field and analysis closer to field and top analysis closer to home. that's

learned. gb news radio. >> well, it has transpired that the police have been logging alleged rapists as women, even though legally that's not possible. and they are biological men . i think this is biological men. i think this is an example of woke policing gone mad. it's the topic of my big opinion, which harvey is currently crafting into a video which will be available on twitter shortly at gb news. how about this from clinton ? mark, about this from clinton? mark, you are a complete and utter says clinton's strong words there. one example would be rose

west , who abused there. one example would be rose west, who abused little boys along with her husband, who abused them as well. female do exist. james says. mark fired the police, who labelled these people as female lose pension rights. lee says as much as i do not agree with a lot of rishi has to say these days. one thing i do agree with is a man is a man. a woman is a woman. gender identity has gone way too far lately. what the police have doneis lately. what the police have done is wrong, my opinion. done is wrong, in my opinion. and alan, the college of policing is at the core of so much of this utter nonsense. now, apologies if you did not appreciate clinton's language there in regards to his email . there in regards to his email. listen. it is time now for the big story. and israel has suffered an unexpected and devastating attack from the militant palestinian group hamas. eyewitnesses say the scale of what's been happening is unprecedented. hamas breached the wire that separates gaza from israel in multiple places in the most serious cross—border

attack israel has faced in more than a generation . at least 100 than a generation. at least 100 people in israel have been confirmed as killed, with hundreds of others being treated in hospitals . meanwhile, nearly in hospitals. meanwhile, nearly 200 people have been killed in retaliatory retaliatory israeli strikes in the gaza strip. the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanya , who has said we are at netanya, who has said we are at war. and meanwhile, hamas commander mohammed dave says the group has decided to say that enoughis group has decided to say that enough is enough. meanwhile dozens of israelis are believed to have been captured by palestinian militants. well let's head straight to israel now . let's get reaction from now. let's get reaction from journalist emily schroeder, correspondent india naphtali, and journalist hananya naftali. and can i start with you, india? what is the latest from where you are ? you are? >> well, just a few minutes ago, there were several rocket barrages coming into tel aviv. so i think all of us here in the

interview were running into the shelters, families . the rocket shelters, families. the rocket barrages have since stopped, but the operations down in the south still continue . still continue. >> yes. and hananya , it seems >> yes. and hananya, it seems that the security forces did not expect this attack in any way. it was very much a surprise . it was very much a surprise. >> unfortunately, i have to agree with you. but i think that the core of this story here is that, you the core of this story here is that , you know, we the core of this story here is that, you know, we israelis and british people have one thing in common and is that we love life and for us here in israel , know, and for us here in israel, know, being 20 year old, 30 year old thinking that there were people our age that were kidnapped and they're now hostages inside the gaza strip, people that were murdered only because they are jews living in israel and that's something that really breaks our hearts here in israel . you know, hearts here in israel. you know, on top of having to run to the bomb shelter. but but i think

that would conclude this and say that would conclude this and say that we, the israeli resilience is strong. and they we do see unity here among all these things that we are witnessing . things that we are witnessing. >> well, we're also joined by journalist emily schrader. >> well, we're also joined by journalist emily schrader . and, journalist emily schrader. and, emily, you recorded some footage yourself earlier today. let's take a look . take a look. >> the devil . >> the devil. >> the devil. >> oh, my god. >> oh, my god. >> where is it? >> oh, my god. >> where is it ? wow. it's >> oh, my god. >> where is it? wow. it's . so >> where is it? wow. it's. so emily, can you just tell me what the mood is in israel? >> clearly , people are worried. >> clearly, people are worried. people are afraid . people are afraid. >> well, of course. i mean, i think this is probably one of the darkest days in all of israel's history. so the mood is pretty dismal, understandably so. this footage that you showed

was actually less than a block from my house. and the rocket barrage that india actually mentioned was the rocket barrage that ended up hitting right next to me. so the whole ground shook when i went outside, even on the balcony where i took that in the minutes after the attack , the minutes after the attack, the whole street, the whole neighbourhood smelled like gunpowder. there's shrapnel all over the streets. so it's a very scary reality. and i think that even more disturbing is what's happening in the south. you know, we are having rocket barrages and that's terrifying. but i can only imagine what the residents at the gaza border have been experiencing today and you mentioned that the casualties 100. it's casualties are 100. it's actually now been confirmed that it's and over 1500 it's over 250. and over 1500 injuries. so it's and it will probably be updated further, unfortunately. so we're dealing with a really, really tragic and devastating situation . but as devastating situation. but as hannah said, i do think that the people of israel from right to left in situations like this , we left in situations like this, we are completely united, including

the arab israelis, including jewish israelis, religious, non—religious . and this is a non—religious. and this is a time for us to come together and take a united stand together with allies like the uk and against terrorist organisations like hamas. and i also have to add one more thing that's very important, and that is that this this attack was not just orchestrated by hamas. it was orchestrated by hamas. it was orchestrated with the funding direction and training of the islamic republic of iran, which has been talking about invading and destroying israel for decades now. just a few days ago, the leaders of hamas were meeting with the ayatollah of iran himself. so it's no coincide that these this issue is coming up now. and this is something that israel and the entire world quite frankly, needs to take incredibly seriously and take action on, because israel is just the front line of defence and the islamic repubuc. line of defence and the islamic republic . iran has been very republic. iran has been very clear about what their agenda is when it comes to europe and when it comes to the united states as well. >> indeed, of course we can't

confirm that link to iran, but thatis confirm that link to iran, but that is something that many have speculated may well be the case. is india your reaction to the prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, saying this is war? is he right? >> i mean , absolutely. and it >> i mean, absolutely. and it was fully called for. i mean, such an attack, especially on civilians. any nation, any sovereign nation would also declare war and israel has every right to you know, the palestinian media has been arguing against this clearly. but now we've seen the face of hamas. i think the international media has turned a blind eye for so long. and now our finally seeing world leaders and of the likes, speaking out against it on social media, something we haven't seen before in previous wars and operations . wars and operations. >> ananya, if it is a war, how long do you think it will be? >> well, we have seen that the prime minister and the heads of

the israeli state, they warned that it the israeli state, they warned thatitis the israeli state, they warned that it is going to last for days and it's going to be tough next few days . but i really do next few days. but i really do want to point out that you see exactly the difference between israel and hamas, because the terror organisation, hamas, as soon as they infiltrated israel as you have mentioned, they ran straight for israeli homes . they straight for israeli homes. they went straight to drag citizens, civilians kidnapped them and take them back to the gaza strip. so it really shows you that who we are dealing with here, israel targets terrorists while hamas is targeting civilians. and i do want to express our gratitude to the prime minister of the united kingdom. and as well as the foreign secretary that they have expressed solidarity with the people of israel. it doesn't lend on empty ears. so we are appreciative of that. >> well, indeed , and i extend

>> well, indeed, and i extend those thoughts myself , wolf. those thoughts myself, wolf. last but not least, emily, can i just talk to you about some commentators online, on and in social media who have characterised hamas as freedom fighters and that this attack is about avenging crime terms meted upon the palestinian people by israel . so your reaction to that israel. so your reaction to that sort of commentary ? sort of commentary? >> i think it's absolutely appalling. and that there should never be any excuse ever for the types of things that we've seen today from these palestinian terrorists. there really is no other term for them, not even militants. they are terrorists. thatis militants. they are terrorists. that is their intent and their purpose. and that is what they are proving. not only hanan is completely correct in his assessment. not only were they targeting civilians, but if you looked at the palestinian, the arabic palestinian social media channels, what they were uploading wasn't targeting military bases or carrying out effective strategic military

operations in order to overtake territory . what they were territory. what they were posting was dragging dead bodies of israeli civilians through the streets. what they were sharing was videos of children, in some cases being kidnapped from their homes . that is not an homes. that is not an organisation that seeks to create an effective or a functioning state that is a terrorist organisation that seeks nothing other than destruction . and quite frankly, destruction. and quite frankly, they're bringing destruction upon their own people as well. hamas bears full responsibility for every single casualty on the israeli side and on the palestinian side as well, because there is no reason whatsoever that the palestinian people be in this people should be in this situation either, and that is because of hamas. and of course , ties the iranian regime. >> devastating and tragic scenes in israel. my thanks to emily schrader. india naphtali and hanan naphtali. the devastating story and an awful one to cover. but your reaction to what's happening there and the reaction

of the people that we've just spoken to, mark at gbnews.com. coming up with the pundits tonight as she kicks off labour party conference is angela rayner right to say that misogyny should be a hate crime? plus we'll be hearing about the woman who gave up looking for mr right instead spent £10,000 right and instead spent £10,000 marrying herself. is that a good idea? plus we've been asking a very , very important people's very, very important people's poll. i'll bring you that shortly. the details of the people's poll to come, because it is all about opinion. this show is the home of diverse opinion. lots to get through. i'll see you

radio. well done to producer for dominic organising those interviews in israel. >> and we will return to that story at 1030 with the papers and the editor of the jewish chronicle is now in the course of today, we've been asking, should king charles kick

disgraced prince andrew out of his royal mansion? well the results are in 69.1% say yes, he should be booted out, whilst 30.9% say no. we'll pick up that conversation with the queen of us, showbiz royal and political reporting, kinsey schofield in the next hour. now reacting to the next hour. now reacting to the day's big stories. we have tonight's pundits, broadcaster and journalist emma woolf, entrepreneur and former brexit party candidate, a brand new voice on mark dolan tonight mike green and top podcaster and political commentator lewis oakley. very fetching in his check blazer , bit of saturday check blazer, bit of saturday night style. we need a bit of that now as the labour party conference gets undennay this weekend. we heard from deputy leader angela rayner at the labour women's conference in liverpool. let's take a listen to what she said next. >> labour government will amend the equalities act to introduce a legal duty for employers to take all reasonable steps to stop sexual harassment before it

starts. but that's not all we will make misogyny a hate crime i >> well, that's the kicker . so >> well, that's the kicker. so is angela rayner. right to say that misogyny should be a hate crime? what do we think? let's let's ask lewis. your reaction to this. >> well, it's interesting because when you basically change something to be a hate crime, you're not sort of making anything else criminal . you're anything else criminal. you're just saying that it is a hate crime. so i've looked at this from kind of the side, but from kind of the lgbt side, but what basically is, is just what it basically is, is just that it what it basically is, is just thatitis what it basically is, is just that it is then recorded as a hate crime. and so then you can differentiate. basically if a differentiate. so basically if a crazy were to attack a crazy person were to attack a woman in the street, you would crazy person were to attack a worn at in the street, you would crazy person were to attack a worn at what) street, you would crazy person were to attack a worn at what why eet, you would crazy person were to attack a worn at what why do you would crazy person were to attack a worn at what why do they would crazy person were to attack a worn at what why do they attack look at what why do they attack them? would if it's them? and it would if it's because he hates women, then that's recorded as hate crime. that's recorded as a hate crime. if out to if it's he was just out to attack anyone and she was just walking by then it wouldn't be recorded. and what the idea behind it is that basically we can like, can start to get a list of like, well, is causing people to well, what is causing people to attack women from that kind of misogynistic point of view? and

then to fix it. then figure out ways to fix it. so it is a logical idea. it's not criminalising anything that's not already criminalised i >> -- >> so could it be an aggravating factor in a court of law, do you think ? think? >> possibly. i mean, anything could happen. i i kind of think that this is probably the right move . but, you know, it move. but, you know, it definitely could happen in a court of law . court of law. >> well, i guess, mike, that making misogyny or extreme sexism a hate crime sends the right message . right message. >> well, you know, do i agree with any hate crime? no. is misogyny misogi any good? no. but if you look at the definition of it, it's the hatred of the contempt for or the prejudice towards women. okay. and yet if you'd have seen the 30s or one minute before that you just showed, she that clip, you just showed, she showed hatred , prejudice and showed hatred, prejudice and contempt for anyone who grew up in a in a well to do family. anyone who went to a private school. the hatred was venomous. and so, you know, you could say she previously described she had previously described conservatives as scum. >> well, exactly . >> well, exactly. >> well, exactly. >> so if we're saying misogyny

is the of contempt for or is the hatred of contempt for or prejudice against women , then prejudice against women, then actually, which bit are we talking about? the women bit or the hatred, contempt and prejudice? if it's those three things, then should be things, then she should be breaking for the hatred breaking the law for the hatred she is to anyone who went to school. now, we've spoken before and i went to a school once labelled a demonised depository for waste. was the for social waste. that was the headune i for social waste. that was the headline i was at school. i headline when i was at school. i was called waste , and so was called social waste, and so i want my girls to go to was called social waste, and so i school.t my girls to go to was called social waste, and so i school. theygirls to go to was called social waste, and so i school. they went:o go to was called social waste, and so i school. they went to 30 to was called social waste, and so i school. they went to an:o that school. they went to an amazing school. what amazing school. but what i learnt there, certainly learnt from there, certainly i didn't from eton, didn't come from an eton, i didn't come from an eton, i didn't come from an eton, i didn't come from a great school, you know, spent my early years in caravan. i shared a bed in a caravan. i shared a bed with two brothers till i was 11 and bedroom left home. and a bedroom till i left home. so she says that about so when she says that about people who go to private schools, it says to me she has zero understanding. lots of prejudice against those people. so to do is look so what she ought to do is look at hatred and look at at what hatred is and look at what hate crime is and actually , going to to , if we're going to start to criminalise hatred, then that woman would be one of the first people in prison. wow >> he's not pulling his punches

tonight . >> he's not pulling his punches tonight. what do you think about this idea of misogyny being a hate suffered at hate crime? have you suffered at the hands of misogyny? >> i don't think so . i think >> no, i don't think so. i think if want an even playing field if we want an even playing field , mean, why shouldn't misandry , i mean, why shouldn't misandry then hate as well? then be a hate crime as well? are to label are we going to label everything? my worry is that we label everything thing that makes crime. makes her feelings a hate crime. and we then dilute and i think we then dilute what a serious crimes is. i'm a serious hate crimes is. i'm fascinated , though, i can't fascinated, though, i can't answer your question because i'm fascinated angela rayner fascinated by angela rayner saying going stop fascinated by angela rayner saying harassmentng stop fascinated by angela rayner saying harassment before| fascinated by angela rayner saying harassment before it sexual harassment before it starts. we are. are we going with that? are we going to start accusing people of sexual harassment before before they've even sexually ? i mean, of course even sexually? i mean, of course sexual harassment is wrong , but sexual harassment is wrong, but what's her plan there? >> you have to wonder, don't you? because, i mean, would it be flirtation in the office? >> would it be flirtation? someone making feel someone making you feel uncomfortable? someone i don't know. we to go down know. are we going to go down the standing too close? the route of standing too close? are we going to start measuring people again? and two metre rule all the tom cruise. all over again? the tom cruise. we someone. we just don't like someone. >> cruise rule,

>> the tom cruise cruise rule, which is that to not make eye contact the contact with somebody of the opposite the office which opposite sex in the office which by way i think is a policy by the way i think is a policy on some netflix productions now where been told where the crew have been told not make contact not to make contact with the opposite sex. >> i think that we need to >> well, i think that we need to start to look at relations between men and women because lewis good point. lewis made a really good point. we're with the we're not dealing with the problem all. and i think we problem at all. and i think we are creating an atmosphere where when in a when women and men in a workplace, on a on a film set can't are not allowed to look at each other to make eye contact, that's when you really have to worry about relations between the sexes, but between the genders , who decides what genders, who decides what misogyny is? >> i mean, do you think a comedian person could be accused of a hate crime for doing a mother in law joke ? mother in law joke? >> maybe it's and isn't that the risk? well, i think the thing is what we're trying to regulate at the moment is regulating people to be good people. and it's really hard to kind of write a list of like you do all this and then you're a good person. we all have to interact. sometimes

people off people might make an off coloured comment, if we want coloured comment, but if we want to then we to take this seriously, then we have able to weed have to be able to weed out those look, that's banter. those. look, that's just banter. thatis those. look, that's just banter. that is just how people interact with no, you touch her. with no, you don't touch her. you don't. don't do that. you don't. you don't do that. >> don't people. >> you don't touch people. >> you don't touch people. >> we have to just >> so i think we have to just make sure there is a common make sure that there is a common sense , maybe, but hate sense line, maybe, but hate crime different. crime is different. >> categorising things as >> we're categorising things as hate we know hate crimes. of course we know what harassment is. of what sexual harassment is. of course know you don't course we know that. you don't touch. you know, touch. you don't, you know, unwanted advances. unwanted sexual advances. all of that that. laws that around that. we have laws around that. but when you start to label things that make that you don't like or that you think that hatred towards that that's hatred towards women, no, maybe it's not. maybe it's offensive language it's just offensive language towards another human being . as towards another human being. as you a joke about a mother you say, a joke about a mother in law. think that becomes a in law. i think that becomes a crime . we're in a real we're in crime. we're in a real we're in a real situation. >> you run businesses. how do you about having follow you feel about having to follow rules crimes and misogyny? >> well, emma makes a good point that people know when get to that people know when we get to a point where people are so scared, teachers are scared to teach in the way they know they

need to teach in case they say something wrong or or act mentally point out one child. and so police are scared to police. i don't think anyone goes to work not wanting to do those things . and this kind of those things. and this kind of signpost politics that is really about winning votes or trying to win over a certain part of the population because it will never be able to be easily sorted because the definition is too vague to know that. was it an intent, but was it was it just conversation? >> i think a lot of misogyny and an incel that kind of movement comes from these these weird rules whereby men feel angry towards women or women feel angry towards men because normal human behaviour is suddenly labelled as criminal . and i labelled as criminal. and i think that we just need to get back to basics and treat people with respect, treat and improve the relations between men and women and between young girls and young boys and all the way up. >> does this give us a flavour of what life would be like under

a labour government where the state determines everything that comes out of your mouth? >> and starmer >> and yet keir starmer struggled what what was struggled to say what what was a man what was a woman? yeah, man and what was a woman? yeah, it just seems so ironic in its own way. >> it's hate isn't it? >> it's a hate crime, isn't it? well, let's move on to well, look, let's move on now to a slightly lighter story, because a woman has given up on her for search prince charming and spent £10,000 on marrying herself off in a lavish ceremony. the lucky groom ceremony. the lucky bride groom vowed cherish vowed to love and cherish herself and be her own knight. in shining armour. could in shining armour. so could marrying yourself be the key to happiness? should more of us do it? is it time to celebrate being single? anyone single here? no no, no. all happily ensconced. >> i am , but i don't feel single >> i am, but i don't feel single with a with a young child. you don't feel single. you're married to your son. >> but would you marry yourself? no. what you think? well, no, no. what do you think? well, no, i'll rephrase that. would you. would you walk yourself the aisle? >> you're talking a woman >> you're talking to a woman who's been engaged five times, and never made the ultimate and i've never made the ultimate mistake . i've had a nice few mistake. i've had a nice few rings passing through my hands, and i've never have they been

you. but i'm under i understand what's went on in afghanistan but it i spoke to young taliban members and they told me that they joined the taliban simply because they were getting $100 a month and they disagree with women not being able to get educated. they feel that their sisters and mothers and stuff should get an education. they just didn't want to speak out. so this was some young new taliban members who said they simply joined because they get $100 a month. >> extraordinary fee. what about those murderous gangs in the favelas of brazil and colombia . favelas of brazil and colombia. yeah >> yeah. well, i went to rio and it's like anything to get the full fabric of society. i think you have to speak to everybody and. and the favelas were it was interesting because someone tried to rob me in copacabana beach, but when i went into the favelas, i felt more safe. it's very strange now, obviously ,

hour. and those papers are coming. but first, my take . at coming. but first, my take. at ten. with friends like these, who needs enemies? the prime minister of ireland, leo varadkar , has accused britain of varadkar, has accused britain of dissing beijing from the world. take a listen . take a listen. >> but it does bother me to see the united kingdom disengaging from the world, whether it's reducing its budget for international aid, whether it's leaving the european and leaving the european union and now talking about now even talking about withdrawing from the from the european convention on human rights. that's not the britain i know. >> ouch. these comments come ahead a meeting with rishi ahead of a meeting with rishi sunak, now looks set to be sunak, which now looks set to be frostier than a pack of jumbo frostier than a pack ofjumbo king from iceland. and king prawns from iceland. and there's something fishy about this statement. it feels political in my view. it's yet another brexit punishment beating from an eu overlord . beating from an eu overlord. i'll say one thing about varadkar . i'll say one thing about varadkar. he's a smart guy and he softened his position during the brexit negotiations with bofis the brexit negotiations with boris johnson and he helped to get a deal across the line. fair play. but that's as far as it goes. as a man of irish heritage

myself , i'm goes. as a man of irish heritage myself, i'm embarrassed by his latest comments. let's talk about this britain that's disengaged from the world. shall we sign earning a free trade deal with the cptpp, a global trading bloc larger than the entirety of the eu . is that entirety of the eu. is that disengaging from the world is doing business with australia, canada, japan, mexico , singapore canada, japan, mexico, singapore and new zealand , disengaging and new zealand, disengaging from the world is a deal with the united states and australia to build nuclear submarines disengaging . what about the uk disengaging. what about the uk signing a fighter jet deal with japan ? the hiroshima accord japan? the hiroshima accord securing assurances for finland and sweden? is this disengaged from the world? is britain's leadership and huge financial support for ukraine? £5 billion. so far. is that disengaging from the world? how many billions have dublin contributed to the war effort against russia? i wonder what's happening with varadkar is that he's behaving

like a jilted lover because this country's great crime was leaving a political bloc and regained our national sovereignty . his country, sovereignty. his country, ireland, is sadly so far down the rabbit hole it will never be free. but we are free. and varadkar hates it. the big man cites brexit as another example of our disengagement from the world, neglecting to mention the comprehensive live free trade deal that we have with the eu itself . and here's an annoying itself. and here's an annoying fact that doesn't fit the narrative. exports to the eu from the uk are now at a record high. this doesn't sound very disengaged to me. the uk is a european linchpin in nato. we've opened our arms to the people of hong kong 150,000 and counting following china's reclaiming of that territory. what about britain's bold leadership during the evacuation of afghanistan, in which british troops rescued many fleeing the taliban,

including irish citizens? is that disengaging from the world? i could go on. actually, i will close to 100 trade deals in the offing with an agreement with india and its population of a billion people likely to be signed by christmas. what about our diplomatic defence and economic ties with the commonwealth 56 independent countries around the world is that, you know , disengaging? but that, you know, disengaging? but oh no , we've got to take oh no, we've got to take lectures from the premier of a country which is a glorified tax haven , which is in the grip of haven, which is in the grip of woke ideology which inflicted dreadful covid authoritarian ism on its own people and which does whatever it's told by its real leaders in brussels with is it ireland that armed kyiv before the ukrainian war started or was that brexit britain? i wonder ? that brexit britain? i wonder? britain has never been more engaged with the world and not despite of brexit, but because

of it. it's only leo varadkar. this eu stooge who's disengaged and that's from reality . your and that's from reality. your reaction, mark, at gbnews.com leo varadkar would argue that britain has left the european union , that we've cut foreign union, that we've cut foreign aid, that we're threatening to leave the european convention on human rights. he would argue those are clear evidential proofs that britain is disengaging from the world community. that's his view. that's not mine. what do you think? mark gbnews.com. as i say , is the email. let's get reaction from my top pundits, broadcaster journalist broadcaster and journalist emma wolf, and former wolf, entrepreneur and former brexit party candidate mike green , and top podcaster and green, and top podcaster and commentator lewis oakley . mike, commentator lewis oakley. mike, is britain disengaging from the world? >> do you know why ? i thought as >> do you know why? i thought as you were talking there, mark, is you were talking there, mark, is you had lots of facts, facts, facts, facts, facts , facts. what facts, facts, facts, facts. what leo gave us was an opinion . and

leo gave us was an opinion. and i love the saying we're past the watershed. opinions are like , watershed. opinions are like, and most of them are full of poo . and. and i think all he gave us was an opinion. you gave us the facts. now all i look at is for 40 nearly years, we were a net contributor to the eu . net contributor to the eu. ireland was a net recipient . and ireland was a net recipient. and ireland was a net recipient. and i think he's a bit bitter that he's not getting perhaps the proceeds that he has enjoyed in the past. yeah >> what do you think about this, lewis ? i think it's quite a slur lewis? i think it's quite a slur on this country. i think global britain is very present in the world. >> i get that. i mean, leo certainly rattled you. i wasn't that rattled. i think part of brexit is that we disengage from the bits. we don't want to be involved in and then re—engage involved in and then re—engage in that we do want to in the bits that we do want to be involved i think it's be involved in. so i think it's fine. say, you put fine. as you say, you put fonnard some some great fonnard some some really great facts there. i mean, brexit is still a in a bit of an still in a in a bit of an evolution phase. i still think we know how it's evolution phase. i still think we to know how it's evolution phase. i still think we to all know how it's evolution phase. i still think we to all turn now how it's evolution phase. i still think we to all turn out how it's evolution phase. i still think we to all turn out form it's evolution phase. i still think we to all turn out for us. s evolution phase. i still think we to all turn out for us. if going to all turn out for us. if you're small business, you're you're a small business, you're probably not feeling that enthusiastic but you

enthusiastic about it. but you know what? he's entitled to his free speech and we'll just we'll have to prove him wrong. >> but do you think, >> but do you not think, lewis, that is now more global that britain is now more global since brexit, not less? >> think there's >> yeah, i think there's definitely a good argument for that, we're now trading that, that we're now trading with we've got with the world, that we've got partnerships with the rest of the think that that the world. and i think that that thatis the world. and i think that that that is definitely a good thing and benefit of brexit. b rexit. >> brexit. >> emma this sounds to me like another beating for another punishment beating for leaving the bloc. >> yeah, look obviously brexit >> yeah, look, obviously brexit felt a threat to many eu felt like a threat to many eu leaders varadkar's just leaders and varadkar's just bitter, isn't he's bitter, isn't he? he's absolutely bitter . it's absolute absolutely bitter. it's absolute nonsense you've pointed out, nonsense as you've pointed out, mark, we're deeply engaged with the the world. not only the rest of the world. not only all deals. all those free trade deals. look, leading the way in look, we're leading the way in the you know, in in supporting ukraine and standing up to murderous bullies like putin and the inconvenient truth for varadkar is that, you know, people want to come to this country farm, you know, in in the thousands, millions every year. the thousands, millions every year . we are a wonderful, year. we are a wonderful, beautiful country to visit. people want to come here. we are deeply engaged with the rest of

the world, whether or not we're a part of the of the eu is completely irrelevant. >> indeed. emma, >> well, indeed. but emma, i think of this to think we've got years of this to come, which is the anti britain narrative . it doesn't matter, of narrative. it doesn't matter, of course have they're course we have because they're threatened, because they're threatened, because they're threatened that we threatened by the fact that we left of course, the problem we've though, emma , is that we've got though, emma, is that it's just foreign leaders it's not just foreign leaders like leo varadkar , but there are like leo varadkar, but there are plenty on our own shores who seize upon moments like that from ramona . from ramona. >> yes. yes. and the ramona's won't stop moaning and they won't stop moaning and they won't accept the democratic result. and they won't go away. >> mike, have you had enough of people talking? the country ? people talking? the country? they should go to ireland, whether it's whether it's the leader of, ireland or leader of, of, of, of ireland or those on our own shores. >> yeah. i think one of the most hurtful things when brexit was happening and i shamelessly and happily a brexiteer, but it happily was a brexiteer, but it was never about exclusion and the remainers very successfully made brexit about prejudice, about hate, about exclusion and

actually your conversation with louis, we were trying to extract ourselves from europe so we could better engage with the world. and it used to frustrate me as an employer that it was much harder for me to employ someone who much more someone who might be much more qualified than appropriate from canada , from australia, from canada, from australia, from india , because i had to trade india, because i had to trade with this little european old school tie group . and actually school tie group. and actually those countries i mentioned were part of the commonwealth with whom we've had a relationship for decades longer. so for most brexiteers years it was about an openness to deal with trade, with employ people from all over the world. >> indeed, briefly, louis, though , does varadkar have though, does varadkar have a point that if we leave the echr thatis point that if we leave the echr that is us turning our backs on an important set piece of legislation and therefore we would be an outlier globally? >> oh, it's a really tricky one because we, you know, we helped put the thing together. so i, i don't think all of our rights are going to go out of the window if we if we change it, if

we choose to. but i think that it unsettles a lot of people, both abroad, to both here and abroad, for us to leave. and we are a key player in the world. so whatever do in the world. so whatever we do does ripple does have those kind of ripple effects. think people effects. so i don't think people should worry too much that, you know, our rights are know, all of our rights are going out of window. going to go out of the window. but at same time, people but at the same time, people have kept them have felt that that kept them safe. a really safe. so it's a it's a really tricky to kind of say which tricky one to kind of say which way it's going go. way it's going to go. >> do you think has leo >> well, do you think has leo varadkar point that varadkar got a point that britain disengaged with the britain has disengaged with the world? the of one world? that's the topic of one of text polls. we'll reveal of our text polls. we'll reveal all and coming up, as all shortly. and coming up, as donald trump ahead of joe donald trump roars ahead of joe biden in the is a trump biden in the polls, is a trump presidency inevitable? plus presidency now inevitable? plus prince andrew will not budge from the royal mansion , from the royal lodge mansion, escalating his cold war with king charles. we'll get reaction from the queen of us, showbiz royal and political reporting, kinsey schofield . plus, the kinsey schofield. plus, the papers on the way. see you

>> you're listening to gb news radio . radio. >> well it's time now for us

news with the queen of american showbiz, royal and political reporting, kinsey schofield . reporting, kinsey schofield. kinsey, great to have you back on the show. and joe biden, has he reacted to the carnage playing out in israel as we speak ? speak? >> yes, sir. he did. he he spoke in actually at a very brief press conference where he didn't take any questions . ions but he take any questions. ions but he stressed that we do side with israel and that we're going to do everything in our power to help them. of course, as americans, we're sitting there wondering what can we physically do at this point when we've done so much for ukraine? but it was interesting and something that people are talking about, even some of the mainstream media is , is the us office of palestine affairs. they tweeted and then deleted a message urging all sides to refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks . now the and retaliatory attacks. now the state department stresses that the tweet was deleted because it

was not approved. but my goodness, it makes our country look so unorganised , right? that look so unorganised, right? that should not have ever gone out to begin with. absolutely right. >> they should speak with one voice, particularly given the fact that america is the world's predominant economic and military superpower and israel's main strategic ally . now, a new main strategic ally. now, a new poll says that donald trump would beat joe biden in a presidential race. do you think that a likelihood of a trump return to the white house is growing by the day? kinsey that's a tough question, but i do feel like his entire campaign is all of this legal drama . is all of this legal drama. >> i mean, it's his it's become , you know, a war cry. right? but it's the market. i believe it's the marquette law school survey saying that people that are , you know, undecided whether are, you know, undecided whether or not they're going to vote or not say that 62% say they they would if they do vote or they're going to vote for trump, 37, i

believe, said they were going to vote for biden, but they see trump's strengths in, you know, the economy , in foreign affairs, the economy, in foreign affairs, in immigration. but i think that the reason they're undecided at this point in time is because of his legal woes . they're kind of his legal woes. they're kind of trying to sit back and see what happens, what comes to fruition . and they're not necessarily confident that all of this stuff is to going be done by the time we're expected to put our ballots in. indeed >> i mean, is this an existential battle for donald trump? is his only hope of staying out of jail, becoming president ? president? >> well, mark, you're you're getting me good today with these questions. i don't i would hope not. i mean, i really would hope not. i mean, i really would hope not. but i, i do think that every time a blue state hits trump with something nefarious, it it it causes his support to rise. and you know, i i'm i know

people that every time something happens they're donating to his campaign and people are really passionate about this man and i. i do believe that there he has just he's he's i think it's the idea of him being a maverick. i think it's the idea of him really challenging the system that impresses people. and when the system keeps trying to shut him down, itjust elevates the system keeps trying to shut him down, it just elevates him even more . yeah, indeed. even more. yeah, indeed. >> so can we talk about prince andrew, who's rather comfortable in his royal lodge accommodation in his royal lodge accommodation in what's happening there? it seems like the cold war between prince andrew and king charles is brewing . is brewing. >> mark, this has been a story we've been talking about for months , maybe even a year at months, maybe even a year at this point in time. months, maybe even a year at this point in time . um, you this point in time. um, you know, it was reported that king charles wanted to evict prince andrew, wanted to wanted him to head to frogmore head over to frogmore cottage and enjoy that space. so perhaps inevitably, the wales's could move into royal lodge according

to the sun, prince andrew met with king charles at balmoral and stressed , you know, kind of and stressed, you know, kind of put himself out there and said, this is why i don't want to leave. the sun says that prince andrew has invested over £200,000 in renovations to royal lodge at this point in time , and lodge at this point in time, and that was enough to convince king charles to let him spend some more time there. so apparently he is safe. he he can put the moving boxes away. he's no longer the squatting spare. he's comfortable where he is and he's to going stay there. >> there you go. he is not moving for love nor money. what about his ex—wife, sarah ferguson ? she's made made ferguson? she's made made headunes ferguson? she's made made headlines this week . headlines this week. >> yeah. you're don't forget, it's his roommate . his roommate it's his roommate. his roommate and ex—wife , sarah ferguson. she and ex—wife, sarah ferguson. she is looking for a talk show here in the states. and all i would say is, haven't we suffered enough ? okay. yeah, but she has enough? okay. yeah, but she has taken meetings because she would like to have a sit down talk

show in the states a la oprah, a la drew barrymore, who has become really successful over here. you know, mark, i think people would actually watch this. you know, fergie is very engaging. she's got a great sense of humour and she has a lot of really good contacts for sure. >> i've always been a big fan. i think she's a real character and bless her for putting up with prince andrew and continuing to cohabit with him. i mean, it was a great love affair, but it just didn't quite work out for the couple. is there any hope that they could ever reconcile or remarry ? rem arry? >> remarry? >> yeah, i would hope so. would not not be the ultimate dream . i not not be the ultimate dream. i would think that that would be very romantic. that's a lifetime movie that i would watch on repeat. mark you know, it's the idea. are they friends with benefits? this is this this question lives rent free in my head 365 days a year. i'm cunous head 365 days a year. i'm curious if they were to remarry, might that rehabilitate the image of prince andrew? >> i think so.

>> i think so. >> don't you? don't you think that would really do things up? i do, too . you know, i think i do, too. you know, i think that we would get all lost in that we would get all lost in that storyline again. and you know, i saw the poll results on twitter. i understand a lot of people do want prince andrew to move out of royal lodge . but at move out of royal lodge. but at the end of the day , i feel like the end of the day, i feel like the end of the day, i feel like the queen would be happy with where he's at right now. and i feel like she left him there on purpose. so i kind of i'm kind of okay with him staying there, too, right . too, right. >> but can we talk about the sussexes now? harry and meghan return to new york city following their near catastrophic collision . ian catastrophic collision. ian isn't this interesting? >> and after prince william had such a successful visit here, americans went crazy for prince william. but this is the first time the sussexes are back in nyc. after that car chase, after meghan accepted her award for her podcast that no longer exists and they're doing an

archewell in—person event. on tuesday where they're going to be discussing seeing, you know, people's digital footprint , people's digital footprint, children's digital footprints and how parents can protect their kids online. >> oh, my goodness gracious me. well as always, they've made headunes.i well as always, they've made headlines . i mean, do we feel headlines. i mean, do we feel because you look at the sussexes on a sort of day by day basis now, don't you? how's the brand looking overall following the invictus games for example ? invictus games for example? >> yeah, no, i it's not necessary. i think i feel like meghan hobnobbing with all of these celebrities made a bigger impact than when prince. prince william and i'm sorry prince harry's invictus games. i feel like people were more glued to meghan at the beyonce concert , meghan at the beyonce concert, more glued to this idea of her trying to twice she went to the beyonce concert twice . i don't beyonce concert twice. i don't think that people are impressed by them. they feel, you know, at this point in time, i still feel

like there an of like there is an element of shallowness that surrounds that brand. and they really need to shake that off. >> brilliant stuff. we never want to shake you off, kinsey, we'll a week's time. we'll see you in a week's time. my the queen of us, my thanks to the queen of us, showbiz political showbiz royal and political reporting kinsey schofield. do check brilliant podcast, check out her brilliant podcast, to daily , which is all to die for daily, which is all about royal stories and indeed her website of the same name. coming up, tomorrow's newspaper, front pages and live reaction in the studio from my top pundits. plus, they'll be nominating their headline heroes and back page zeroes of the day. and in response to my take at ten, we've been asking you the great british public is the irish premier, leo varadkar , right premier, leo varadkar, right that britain is dissing gauging from the world the results are in. i shall reveal all

the sunday mirror this morning . the sunday mirror this morning. stars reunited. holly and phil heal rift over kidnap , horror . heal rift over kidnap, horror. and i think we'll just put the daily star sunday to one side, if you don't mind. alastair because it's now time to get more on this devastating set of developments in israel with the editor of the jewish chronicle, jake wallace simons, who is also the author of a brand new book about attitudes to israel called israel phobia. jake, thank you so much forjoining us. first of all, your reaction to the appalling violence that we've seen meted out to israeli citizens in the last 24 hours . citizens in the last 24 hours. >> well, mark, like many other people, when i first woke up this morning and saw my phone lighting up with this news, my initial reaction was of disbelief almost like it could be some, you know , poor taste be some, you know, poor taste joke. but as the as the day wore on and more and more news came to light, a sense of real

thickness and disgust came across me, which to be honest, is still pervading me to this moment . and this is an moment. and this is an unprecedented dated set of events . but the ease with which events. but the ease with which the gaza murder jurors were able to approach the border and enter israel and massacre abuse jews and take hostage so many civilians is really just unprecedented in israel's history. this is the biggest attack on civilians that israel has ever experienced and taking place on the 50th anniversary of the yom kippur war, which is probably as close as israel has ever come to total destruction . ever come to total destruction. it really is very, very sobering and disturbing indeed . and disturbing indeed. >> indeed, it's an appalling tragedy. this attack looks to have been unexpected . are hamas have been unexpected. are hamas there perhaps catching the security services unawares? now, hamas are recognised by the

british government jake, hamas are recognised by the british governmentjake, as a british government jake, as a terrorist organ ization. as you said, one of the most audacious moves by the group in many years , israel have retaliated . and , israel have retaliated. and how do you see this awful conflict playing out ? conflict playing out? >> well , with any conflict >> well, with any conflict involving israel, there are two wars that take place . wars that take place. >> the first is the war in the real world, where the israeli defence forces are going to be pitted against hamas militants and other associated gaza terrorists as well . and we're terrorists as well. and we're all, you know, looking and praying at the northern border, hoping that hezbollah don't get involved, creating another front for israel to contend with as well . so that's the first war. well. so that's the first war. the second war takes place in the realm of public opinion on twitter, on social media and on broadcasters such as this one, where people are often useful idiots of islamists on the left

begin to argue and blame israel for this unprovoked attack . used for this unprovoked attack. used talking points and lies and misinformation to undermine an the jewish state's right to defend itself and present israel as the attacker. when it's clearly been caught unawares by this surprise assault . now, this this surprise assault. now, this sort of propaganda is one of the features of modern warfare when it comes to israel, at least. and it's one that is really as hotly contested as the real war itself . itself. >> well, indeed. so plenty of high profile commentators in the media in this country seemingly sympathetic to hamas , which is sympathetic to hamas, which is a terrorist organisation . in is terrorist organisation. in is truly unbelievable. >> i mean, people are blaming the occupation regardless of the fact that israel withdrew unilaterally from gaza in 2005. there is no occupation in gaza at all by any stretch of the imagination . these people are

imagination. these people are speaking up in support and in defence of a terror group that will break into the israeli civilian population centres, will murder grandmothers, will open fire on civilian families, huddung open fire on civilian families, huddling in their bomb shelters, will drag off women, child children, families into gaza as hostages and will summarily execute people as they go through israeli streets . these through israeli streets. these are not people who are friends of anybody who should be friends of anybody who should be friends of anybody who should be friends of anybody in the west. and yet the perversity of identity politics and the hard left are such that they will support the most brutal murderers and butchers and terrorist fanatics because they perceive them as being the underdog in some sort of socialist struggle . for in of socialist struggle. for in the culture wars, it really is absolutely sickening . people in absolutely sickening. people in britain and around the west have got to get back in touch with the values that unite us and the

israelis, which are the values of free speech, democracy , of free speech, democracy, tolerance of minorities and general and general sort of freedom of expression and stand against this brutal savagery that we're seeing taking place. astonishingly early in 2023. well indeed, your book is called israel of phobia and it's very much about the hatred of jewish people around the world. >> and that's the sort of awful, awful thing that motivates these attacks. and actually, you've followed the book up with an article in tomorrow's telegraph on a similar theme. and in your column , you argue that the column, you argue that the atrocities in israel were not resistance by freedom fighters, but an eruption of what you call the oldest hatred . we need to the oldest hatred. we need to call it out anti semitic butchery . butchery. >> that's right. i mean, in my booki >> that's right. i mean, in my book i make clear that in the middle ages, anti semitism really was was motivated by religion who hated jews because

they were the christ killers. if you fast fonnard to the 20th century, jews were hated on a racial basis. they were seen as a subhuman breed that were that needed to be exterminated because they were malevolent. whereas today the really anti—semitism takes the form of politics. it's a hatred of jews for their national home, for their homeland, for their political identity, and that really is the latest prism through which anti—semitism is filtered . so whereas, you know, filtered. so whereas, you know, in the past people talked about hating jews or standing against jews, now they just exchange the word jew for zionist, and that becomes a sort of legitimate expression of the oldest hatred in the 21st century. and i think it's important to recognise that thatis it's important to recognise that that is what is animating these hamas terrorists and that is what really is animating their cheerleaders and supporters in the west who might pose as social justice warriors, but really , these sorts of this sort really, these sorts of this sort of social justice language is simply the latest mask that the

ugly face of anti—semitism is assuming in order to try to gain followers in the west. so, yeah, this is the argument that i'm making in the book, and it's borne out in vivid, horrific detail on our screens all day today. and i suspect over the next few days, in a couple of weeks, indeed, nothing justify us this horrific attack . us this horrific attack. >> what would you say, though, to critics of israel's treatment of the palestinian people . of the palestinian people. >> well, look, i mean, if you're to going criticise israel reasonably without resorting to lies, untruths and misinformation, bigotry and prejudice, then good luck to you . and there's nowhere, nowhere so much criticism of israel as within israel itself. my problem really is when eyes, misinformation and disproportionality hijacks the debate and that is the hallmark of israeli phobia or the latest form of anti—semitism. for example, if you if you criticise

israel of being a genocidal state, that's quite common. you know, the palestinian population increased five fold since israel's establishment pretty bad genocide . if you criticise bad genocide. if you criticise it for being a white supremacist state, that's difficult because more israelis are non—white than are white. if you criticise it for being a colonial state. another great sin of the social justice movement . that's justice movement. that's difficult historically because israel historically is a post—colonial state arising from the collapse of the ottoman empire and the withdrawal of the british mandate and so on and so forth . all of these are lies. forth. all of these are lies. and when people articulate forth. all of these are lies. an means people articulate forth. all of these are lies. an means ofeople articulate forth. all of these are lies. an means of trying rticulate forth. all of these are lies. an means of trying to :ulate forth. all of these are lies. an means of trying to bring down as means of trying to bring down the jewish state, that's a hallmark of israeli phobia . but hallmark of israeli phobia. but reasonable, fact based criticism opposing , reasonable, fact based criticism opposing, you reasonable, fact based criticism opposing , you know, the violence opposing, you know, the violence of israeli extremists on the west bank, for example. i oppose that. i criticise that. that's perfectly reasonable to criticise that or settlement policy or whatever . that's policy or whatever. that's totally legitimate and fine . but totally legitimate and fine. but i'm talking about is the anti—semitic that comes through in this new form of israeli phobia. >> jake wallace simons, thank

you so much forjoining us. jake is the editor of the jewish chronicle and the author of israel phobia, which is out now. and do check out his piece for tomorrow's telegraph, which is already online. well, let's react to some of the other stories of the day in the company of emil wolf , mike green company of emil wolf, mike green and ed lewis oakley and can we talk about plans by labour to fund student grants by richard grad gates? lewis you probably the one panellist that's been in higher education more recently than the rest of us. labour is exploring plans to bring back maintenance grants for poorer students by increasing the debt burden on wealthier graduate rates. modelling being studied by the party envisages spending £2.3 billion a year to bring back grants by levying larger student loan interest rates on higher earners. your reaction ? higher earners. your reaction? >> oh, i it's one of those

things. how is it going to work? i do think that, you know, going to uni now is so expensive. i mean it is you're never going to pay mean it is you're never going to pay it back a lot of the time. and think that argument and i do think that the argument now really more about now should be really more about not to uni, more about not not going to uni, more about not going to apprenticeships and that their that kind of thing on their actual plans. don't know actual plans. i don't know because there are a lot of people rich paper people that are rich on paper and maybe it's and i think , you and maybe it's and i think, you know, if you look at how student loans are calculated now, it's about parents earn. loans are calculated now, it's ab0|that's parents earn. loans are calculated now, it's ab0|that's not parents earn. loans are calculated now, it's ab0|that's not to parents earn. loans are calculated now, it's ab0|that's not to say parents earn. loans are calculated now, it's ab0|that's not to say thatnts earn. loans are calculated now, it's ab0|that's not to say that the earn. but that's not to say that the parents are actually giving it to the children. so it's a really one to kind of work really hard one to kind of work out is rich and who is not. out who is rich and who is not. i a lot of these i think in a lot of these situations, think you're situations, i think you're absolutely situations, i think you're absilutely your measured view on >> i share your measured view on that. how in the that. how about this in the sunday labour's sunday times arms, mike labour's green belt building plan . rachel green belt building plan. rachel reeves, the shadow chancellor , reeves, the shadow chancellor, has pledged to review the rules on building on green belts as part of a planning revolution that she claims could unlock £200 billion of investment. we think of green belt as kind of these wonderful , flowery these wonderful, flowery meadows. it's not always the case. a lot of it is ripe for

development. >> absolutely. i mean, look, we're in the years run up to the next election, aren't we? so they're all to going promise world loving world peace and loving everybody. reality is, everybody. but the reality is, the government hit the last government that hit a housing target was 1977. you know, each government, both of the parties have been absent . the parties have been absent. absolutely appalling at building . yeah, they want to blame builders. they want to tax developers what they ought to do is look at themselves and take some risk. ponsibility for housing people. the uk, the population has increased even in the last since tories have the last since the tories have been power by 5 million been in power by 5 million people and we've only built 1.3 million homes. you know, that's without the disparate, the disparate of the current disparate needs of the current population. it's a joke. we do need to build houses . but need to build more houses. but just making that statement , just making that statement, they've been that for 30 they've been making that for 30 years. no has delivered 50 years. no one has delivered 50 years. no one has delivered 50 years. no one has delivered 50 years. no one has delivered since years ago, 1977. what since 46 years ago, 1977. what makes believe that they're makes me believe that they're going to do it next year, next five years? nothing. that's coming either party. coming from either party. >> like might >> it feels like there might be on verge a party

on the verge of a party conference and they're suddenly coming ideas which coming up with ideas which labour been sadly lacking labour have been sadly lacking for 5 years. and suddenly for 4 or 5 years. and suddenly all these ideas are springing out of the woodwork. >> what about emma >> what about this one? emma sunak to end sick note culture after fears gps are to lenient a radical overhaul of the sick note regime is to be unveiled by the government this autumn as the government this autumn as the centrepiece of a back to work drive designed to tackle britain's ballooning welfare bill. mel stride , the work and bill. mel stride, the work and pensions secretary , is working pensions secretary, is working on plans to shake up the regime in favour of a treat them first approach, designed to reduce the number of people being routinely signed off for months at a time. well, there's a few things on that. >> treat them first. yes. if you can get an appointment with your gp because that's a major problem. secondly if people need to be treated, we need to not have billions sorry, millions , have billions sorry, millions, millions on the waiting list. and thirdly , what about some and thirdly, what about some acknowledgement of the fact that they have created a culture in which many, many people

which many, many, many people have spent the last 2 or years have spent the last 2 or 3 years either working from home or not working at that was working at all. that was a result. was a direct result result. that was a direct result of their covid policies and their lockdown policies. and they're lot of people they're putting a lot of people on that didn't need on furlough that didn't need to be and all of that. be on furlough and all of that. so, you know, you reap what you sow. you do indeed. >> well, we've talked a lot about britain in on the about work shy britain in on the show and will of course return to shortly. i've to that. no doubt shortly. i've got front pages got more newspaper front pages to my brilliant to come. plus my brilliant pundits will nominate their headune pundits will nominate their headline heroes and back page zeroes of the day. also after this, find out why comedy . star this, find out why comedy. star david walliams has revealed that he's been

there about about being caught in the middle of one of these storms, one of these media storms, one of these media storms, very it's things like that. and i just think we always have to be aware that there are individuals involved in this. and you know, this is not i'm not supporting walliams in not supporting david walliams in any the any way. i just i know the pressure people can get pressure that people can get themselves caught up in this stuff it's particularly stuff. and it's particularly dangerous and horrendous in in this era of social media when you can be literally spending days and nights and days and nights without sleep, being attacked and being having a pile on from thousands and millions of anonymous people. and i can just imagine the stress that he's under. >> well, there you go. fascinating case. curious to see how that one plays out and what it might mean for walliams relationship with itv . well, relationship with itv. well, it's time now for my pundits to nominate their headline heroes and back page zeros of the day. so, emma, who's your hero ? so, emma, who's your hero? >> oh, my hero . my zero are >> oh, my hero. my zero are interchangeable. so i'm going to say them both and ruin your
