we're going to >> okay, then we're going to take into the room take you into the spin room where stories turn bad and where good stories turn bad and bad turn good. why bad stories turn good. like why it's a good thing that bonfire night cancelled is it's a good thing that bonfire ni all cancelled is it's a good thing that bonfire ni all if cancelled is it's a good thing that bonfire ni all if kidsancelled is it's a good thing that bonfire ni all if kids arezlled is it's a good thing that bonfire ni all if kids are out] is it's a good thing that bonfire ni all if kids are out thereis it all bad if kids are out there deaung it all bad if kids are out there dealing drugs? but yes, it's not just spin we're also just the spin room. we're also going having a little going to be having a little look, aren't we, at some of the best clips from social media so far including joe far this week, including joe biden flying nun ? wow, no. biden and a flying nun? wow, no. save your . all right. i'll see save your. all right. i'll see you the other side of the wonderful ray addison . wonderful ray addison. >> good evening . it's just after >> good evening. it's just after 8:00. i'm ray addison in the newsroom. and we start with some breaking news this hour . the breaking news this hour. the israeli prime minister's office has confirmed the release of two hostages who were being held by hamas. judith and natalie rhiannon are now on their way to

a military base in central israel. earlier, israeli military sources gave more information about the estimated 200 hostages taken by the terrorist organisation. they say 30 are teenagers and young children and 20 are over the age of 60. the majority are still alive . the prime minister has alive. the prime minister has praised egypt for its efforts in trying to deliver aid to civilians in gaza. after meeting the country's president, rishi sunak saad said palestinians are also victims of hamas and expressed his condolence for the loss of lives. he also stressed the importance of opening a safe corridor corridor to gaza. >> prioritise consistently is getting the rafah crossing opening. it's been a feature of all my conversations and i'm very pleased that that will now imminently happen. we announced an increase in our funding for humanitarian aid into the region and when i met with president sisi earlier today , he and i had sisi earlier today, he and i had a good discussion about how the uk can provide practical assistance on the ground to

ensure the sustainability of that aid through the crossing to the people who need it. well back here, sir keir starmer says former tory voters have put their trust and their confidence in the labour party after they overturned conservative majorities to win two by elections. >> now the video we're about to show you contains some flash photography in tamworth. sarah edwards overturn a conservative majority of more than 19,000. meanwhile alastair streatham took mid beds esher with 20.5% swing. that's the largest labour by—election win since 1945. keir starmer says it's history in the making . making. >> huge victory. making. >> huge victory . these are >> huge victory. these are either of these results would have been extraordinary. both together they are historic . together they are historic. these are seats that we've never won before or rarely won before , won before or rarely won before, and we've had swings of over 20% and we've had swings of over 20% and we've had swings of over 20% and we've now had four by elections with swings of over 20. if you take selby and rutherglen as well. so, you know

, that is a very, very important investing of confidence and trust in a changed labour party and west mercia police says a man in his 60s has died after getting caught in fast flowing floodwater in shropshire. >> he's believed to be the third fatality as storm babet continues to cause severe weather conditions. this afternoon . a passenger plane afternoon. a passenger plane came off the runway at leeds bradford airport while landing in those windy conditions . in those windy conditions. however, there were no reported injuries . the met office earlier injuries. the met office earlier issued a 24 hour red weather warning in central and northeast scotland as further heavy rainfall is expected . this is gb rainfall is expected. this is gb news across the uk on tv, in your car, on digital radio and on your smart speaker by saying play on your smart speaker by saying play gb news. now let's get back to . patrick to. patrick >> welcome along to friday night with me patrick christys. let's get straight into it, shall we?

and we start tonight with the results from the tamworth amid bedfordshire by elections. but don't try to make don't worry, we'll try to make this interesting for this remotely interesting for you. were big tory you. there were big tory majorities in those majorities in both of those seats, but here's what happened in . in tamworth. >> edwards, sarah sienna, labour party 11,719 votes less . party 11,719 votes less. >> well, it's the most success any of those politicians have ever had in a sports hall, isn't it? and mid bedfordshire. now a similar tale strathearn in alister luke labour . party alister luke labour. party 13,872 . to yeah interesting 13,872. to yeah interesting outfit that chap was wearing there but it does seem like the tories are set for electoral oblivion. but can they somehow avoid that humiliation? is it time for the drastic measure of

replacing prime minister rishi sunak? well here to answer this, i'm delighted to be joined by the former conservative mp for tiverton and honiton neil parish and denis macshane, who of course is the former labour minister for europe for fantastic shapps. the only time i ever thought i would spend a friday night with you two would be trapped in the same prison cell. but here we go. so anyway, neil, i will start with you then. is it time to get rid of rishi sunak? if the tories want any chance winning the next any chance of winning the next election, think election, well, i think that will be. >> patrick would be completely suicidal that path. suicidal if they went that path. but i think they have a hell of a challenge there. interesting. two because in two results really, because in tamworth the liberal democrat vote all but disappeared and they squeezed the labour party, squeezed that and won reform. also was about the same as the majority that the labour party, they got to make the same votes as as the labour party got majority. and of course in in mid bedfordshire it was a three way split where the liberal democrats became a strong third.

but still reform had as many votes as the labour majority. so i think the trouble is the tory party is being attacked on all fronts. basically okay. all right, dennis. reform. and so i think it's a hell of a battle to 9°! think it's a hell of a battle to go, but i think changing the prime minister will not change the difference because i think it's a tory party that is so out of favour at the moment. >> okay. all right . so neil, >> okay. all right. so neil, neil's keeping rishi sunak. dennis, do you think the only chance the tories have got is to ditch sunak? >> i don't think it'll make any difference. it's the tory party in totality. it is liz truss. it's boris johnson . do you it's boris johnson. do you remember the person before him ? remember the person before him? somebody called theresa may and she was one of the worst prime ministers we ever had. and the tories have doubled down, doubled down, doubled down on not very impressive people and keep reducing policies that really annoy everybody. i really feel sorry for rishi sunak i was there in the last death—watch

year for john there in the last death—watch year forjohn major there in the last death—watch year for john major and there in the last death—watch year forjohn major and in there in the last death—watch year for john major and in the last death—watch year for gordon brown. it is horrible to be prime minister when you know you haven't . you're not going to be haven't. you're not going to be there in six months, nine months person . i just wonder if he person. i just wonder if he shouldn't just get the agony over with and write an election. so you think he should. >> he should essentially take that political cyanide pill as it were, and just call a general election. neil, you know , the election. neil, you know, the answer does appear to be staring him in the face, though, which is to maybe behave like a conservative and dare i say it does this not prove yet again why it was silly to get rid of bofis why it was silly to get rid of boris johnson then also liz boris johnson and then also liz truss, least the members truss, at least the members voted her. you've just voted for her. you've just replaced with posh replaced her with a posh billionaire you're going billionaire and now you're going to well,i billionaire and now you're going to well, i mean, i think the >> well, i mean, i think the election by elections that happened were happened under boris were equally by, you know, big equally lost by, you know, big majorities were lost and the seats were, you know , by seats were, you know, by elections were lost to the tories by the tories. so i don't think that makes a huge amount of difference. i think what will

be is interesting about the be what is interesting about the whole thing, is this whole thing, patrick, is this 30% of people that are not voting in the by elections that will be voting in the general election. now, how many of those are tories? some of them are. are there enough? probably not, but i've still not convinced where we're in for the hammering that some of the pundits go for. i think we will lose the general election. but whether you know, today on the today programme they were saying we were going to lose worse than in 97. i to lose it worse than in 97. i think probably not. >> well, you know what? it would be incredibly bleak if that happened. yeah, it would be incredibly that incredibly bleak if that happened because at least happened, neil, because at least in 1997 they had a person in the shape of blair. i mean, shape of tony blair. i mean, i happen to think that personally he something you he resembles something that you absolutely cannot flush, but a personality nonetheless. okay. now, keir starmer it is just he's like the occasional table of politicians, isn't he? he's kind equivalent of kind of the human equivalent of going shopping on a wet going curtains shopping on a wet weekend in slough , right? if weekend in slough, right? if that wins kind of that guy wins the kind of stonking that tony stonking landslide that tony blair did, it is a indictment,

dennis, of where we are in britain's political landscape . britain's political landscape. >> i think you're so wrong, if i may say so . you're a great tv may say so. you're a great tv person and the tory party has had all these ridiculous out sized personalities in recent years and people just want a straight rather boring. no, they don't. what you see is what you get, who just gets on bit by bit with repairing the great broken bit we're living in right moment. and i think that's exactly our secret weapon. he's not your super duper exciting guy splashing fireworks. he's just an honest . just an honest. >> yeah. i mean, there is a joke , surely, about the thing that you can roll in glitter after his conference speech. but we won't make it, chaps. thank you very much. have a wonderful friday night. thank you for kickstarting ours. we do have that. parish, former that. neil parish, the former conservative and denis conservative mp and denis macshane, labour macshane, the former labour minister for europe. well, now it's meet my brilliant

it's time to meet my brilliant panel it's time to meet my brilliant panel. this evening i've got author and broadcaster jenny trent comedian trent hughes, brilliant comedian diane spencer, and also something of a comedian as well, although not a professional one. it's aidan magee. thank you very much. great to have you all on the show. thank you for giving up your friday night to be here. jenny, i'll start with you. do you think that they should just ditch sunak, get over with? you think that they should just ditnforiunak, get over with? you think that they should just ditnfor someone: over with? you think that they should just ditnfor someone moreer with? you think that they should just ditnfor someone more bombastic go for someone more bombastic and win the and hope that they win the election them ? election for them? >> i think i think that that idea is borderline radical. >> it's not coming from me. idea is borderline radical. >> it's not coming from me . you >> it's not coming from me. you mean i agree with jenny. okay, come on. come on. >> come on. >> come on. >> come on. >> what is it? is it more ridiculous than just accepting defeat ? defeat? >> because that's what's happening. okay. so first of all, the opera is never over until the fat lady sings, right? so we still have a way to go for elections. but what's wrong now is that we have a situation where we're voting against something rather than for something rather than for something . and that never works something. and that never works because that's how trump won.

trump won because you love him or loathe him, he stood for something. yeah. and so people voted for the something that he stood for. yeah. boris did that. bofis stood for. yeah. boris did that. boris won because he stood for something. love him or loathe him, people voted for something. we have keir, we have rishi, and we can't figure out what either of them both pretending, both pretending to be something that they're not. >> right. keir starmer, who tried to get jeremy corbyn elected twice and now he's coming trying to be coming out and trying to be essentially tory lite. and you've got rishi who by you've got rishi sunak who by all privately is all accounts privately is actually wing, actually pretty right wing, who's right who's trying to not be right wing. it's pathetic, it? wing. it's pathetic, isn't it? >> yeah, but i think that you're looking this. got to looking at this. you've got to looking at this. you've got to look the minds of the people look at the minds of the people in and tamworth. oh god. in bedford and tamworth. oh god. cast to these cast your minds to these localities . you have people in localities. you have people in bedford who had nadine dorries. they had to deal with her. she was off in the jungle half the time when she should been time when she should have been fixing and then they've fixing things. and then they've got got overcrowding got we've got overcrowding and prisons. bedford prisons. you've got hmp, bedford , so also sort of quite

, so they're also sort of quite close to london. there's a lot of commuters there. they'll be annoyed there's a lot annoyed at ulez. there's a lot of that are going in of things that are going on in their right? so tamworth, their minds right? so tamworth, they absolutely fabulous they have absolutely fabulous kebabs. they have absolutely fabulous kebabs . well done gang. kebabs. well done gang. >> breed of piglets as well >> a breed of piglets as well called the tamworth piglet, which is notorious for being a slightly auburn colour, but no way yeah. way. yeah. >> wow. nice um, but tamworth >> oh wow. nice um, but tamworth no , that's all right. they had no, that's all right. they had chris pincher bottom pincher the guy who groped people. so that leaves a bad taste in the mouth pincher by name, pincher by nature. >> was it at some point, i have to say, allegedly, or are we all right there? >> carry on, i think allegedly. why not just just in case? allegedly right. >> one the people that >> he's one of the people that helped topple boris helped tories topple boris johnson johnson johnson because boris johnson didn't properly . so didn't handle it properly. so there's of so there's a there's a lot of so there's a lot of issues there. and also because they're near birmingham, hs2 . yes. so you've got to get hs2. yes. so you've got to get into the mind of the people. i think this is definitely they've just had enough of the 13 years of tory rule and jenny's right, they're voting against it.

>> all right, aiden, your views on this, do you think on all of this, do you think it's for the of it's time for the kind of revolutionary change that this country which is just to country craves, which is just to smash it all down and build it back better? smash it all down and build it bacprobably. yeah. won't >> probably. yeah. but it won't happen next election. happen before the next election. we're danger of we're also in danger of dismissing tories as dismissing this. all tories as mid—term blues. i mean, had mid—term blues. i mean, you had people, some their people, some of their representatives morning people, some of their rep socialatives morning people, some of their repsocialatives talking morning people, some of their repsocialatives talking about1g on social media talking about how people didn't come how actually people didn't come out to vote. well, what's going to entice out vote? to entice them out to vote? these mid—term blues these aren't mid—term blues because months because we're about 11 months away your away from an election. your point about boris is a stellar one because they winning by one because they were winning by elections under boris johnson. the in the tories were back in hartlepool may for hartlepool in may 2021, for example. stopped. hartlepool in may 2021, for examplestarted stopped. hartlepool in may 2021, for examplestarted losing ped. hartlepool in may 2021, for examplestarted losing them they've started losing them now. and that exactly where and that tells you exactly where they of breaking they are in terms of breaking they are in terms of breaking the thing and the whole thing down and building up. i don't see building it back up. i don't see any calibre of people or personalities in that. tory party who can over. i think party who can take over. i think back the labour government or back to the labour government or the bench back the labour shadow bench back in 1997, calibre there. 1997, there was calibre there. there were people there were 1997, there was calibre there. there forre people there were 1997, there was calibre there. there for government. re were 1997, there was calibre there. there for government. the were ready for government. the current don't believe current lot i don't believe are ready for government. they might just office by just take take office by default. i ask each of you default. can i ask each of you a quick now? quick question now? >> think it should be

>> do you think it should be illegal vote because i'm illegal not to vote because i'm sick these turnouts? hear sick of these turnouts? hear me out on this. these turnouts come out on this. these turnouts come out and go, well, so we've now got great big shift got a whopping great big shift in vote, right, with like in the vote, right, with like 34% people wherever 34% of the people in wherever it was, tamworth or mid bedfordshire in, voting, bedfordshire coming in, voting, you think do you you know, do you think do you think people should be made think that people should be made to vote? i think in australia absolutely. we absolutely. there we go. >> australia it is, it's >> in australia it is, it's something feel very something that i feel very strongly think that strongly about. i think that people made to vote people should be made to vote and other people who and then the other people who really to get put on the really need to get put on the naughty are the people who naughty step are the people who write mickey you write mickey mouse and, you know, sorts of nonsense know, all sorts of nonsense spoiling ballot papers. spoiling their ballot papers. i think absolutely should be stopped. >> okay. all right. by the way, just a quick reminder for everybody who's watching and listening was asking listening to this, i was asking you in a poll that you can take place, take part in on place, take part in now on twitter whether or twitter at gb news, whether or not would give sunak not you would give rishi sunak a vote of no confidence. but i'll come over now. do come back over to you now. do you people should be made you think people should be made to vote? you think people should be made to \d01? you think people should be made to \do you know what? that's >> do you know what? that's a tricky one. would say that as tricky one. i would say that as a woman, because had to fight a woman, because we had to fight for our right to vote. i take

every opportunity i can vote. every opportunity i can to vote. and i mean, the problem is we need of attach collars need sort of to attach collars to so if they don't vote to people. so if they don't vote and they complaining, they and they start complaining, they get zap , zap, taser collars. >> absolutely . i mean, aidan, >> absolutely. i mean, aidan, you're a massive believer. you're in you're a massive believer in women's rights and presumably for you think that everyone for you, you think that everyone should vote no? >> no, i haven't voted since 2005, actually. quite. yeah i'm quite of. you're quite quite proud of. you're quite proud? absolutely not. i've proud? no, absolutely not. i've deliberately think deliberately i chose, i think one was watching. one night i was watching. watching? what was that . what's watching? what was that. what's that programme with hyacinth bouquet oh, god. >> oh yes. oh, god. >> oh yes. oh, god. >> keeping up appearance . yes, >> keeping up appearance. yes, that's right. >> watching that one night that's right. >> uk watching that one night that's right. >> uk weand ng that one night that's right. >> uk weand i; that one night that's right. >> uk weand i forgotone night that's right. >> uk weand i forgot the night on uk gold and i forgot the election was on, was one election was on, so that was one reason. no, i've never voted reason. but no, i've never voted since 2005 and i'm very, very proud of that. i cannot endorse any nonsense we've had in any of the nonsense we've had in the years. any of the nonsense we've had in the yeah, years. any of the nonsense we've had in the yeah, butears. any of the nonsense we've had in the yeah, but you also any of the nonsense we've had in theyeah, but you also some would >> yeah, but you also some would say aiden you lose the right to criticise. sorry, i'm speechless. >> i'm gobsmacked. like my >> i'm gobsmacked. like it's my right vote. right not to vote. >> why you put >> what about why would you put your your cross next to your put your cross next to someone didn't in. someone who didn't believe in. there excuse for that there is no excuse for that whatsoever. >> fact that people

christys gb news. britain's

to gb news radio. >> welcome back. you're watching or listening to me. patrick christys on gb news. it has, yes, just gone 820 loads to come tonight, including the news that hull has become an unlikely houday hull has become an unlikely holiday hotspot and a flying nun features in the best viral videos of the week. and of course, we asked you on twitter if you would submit your vote of no confidence to prime minister rishi sunak if you had the chance. we will reveal the results later on at gb news. take part in that poll. but it's time that myself and my panel entered the spin room. yes, it's the place where seemingly bad stories turn good or with the help of a little bit of spin up first. well, it's back to those by elections. now, let's face it, it seems a large swathe of the population considers these results to be very , very good

results to be very, very good news. labour have captured tamworth and mid bedfordshire and seem to be on course for an election landslide. but if you are a tory supporter , there's no are a tory supporter, there's no way that you can possibly portray these results as anything other than a cataclysmic disaster leading to certain electoral defeats and a minimum of 20 years in the political wilderness . or is that political wilderness. or is that broad caster and author jenni trent hughes , how are you going trent hughes, how are you going to spin this one? >> okay. first of all, it's not a cataclysmic disaster. like i said before, the fat lady has not sang. so the opera is not oven not sang. so the opera is not over. but it's going to involve a huge amount of honesty . so a huge amount of honesty. so people who voted for the tories last time, why did they do it? what did they expect to get out of it? and what do they now want going fonnards? also labour, what is it about labour that that the tories do better? so in other words, if you think about

it like, like a marketing meeting for a product, how are we going to sell this product? and that's going to involve honesty . we all need to be honesty. we all need to be honest. if we're selling labour or if we're selling the tories, it is not a disaster. but we have to re write the programme. >> so i suppose the spin there would be this could be a seismic moment in british political history where some politicians decide, to be honest about about what they what they stand for and what they want. >> whoever thought that trump could elected , a lot could get elected, a lot of people didn't think that bars could get elected, but did. could get elected, but they did. there's who a lot of there's two people who a lot of people don't like, but they knew what they were doing. dominic cummings yeah. alastair campbell we need to find our people now with maybe different moral compasses who can resell the tories to the public. well, there we go. >> okay. do you think that's a decent, positive spin on that? well i mean, you just said they should be honest and then you

pick two people who are capable of creating incredible of creating the most incredible lies to man. lies ever known to man. >> go. i will go down >> i will go. i will go down fighting for alastair campbell. >> okay. well, unfortunately, unfortunately , unfortunately, unfortunately, unfortunately, quite people , quite a few quite a few people, quite a few people middle east went people in the middle east went down fighting for mr campbell and also, you did highlight dominic cummings, the man who said he drove up the a1 to test his eyesight . his eyesight. >> well, you know, we've all been there. >> yeah, exactly. >> yeah, exactly. >> yeah. >> yeah, exactly. >> but1. >> yeah, exactly. >> but you know what? that's not the we're not the point because we're not asking to marry asking anybody here to marry these , have children with these people, have children with them. did they accomplish them. it's did they accomplish what they set out to do? and they did . so it's defined. who they did. so it's defined. who can accomplish that, have that kind of success with the situation that it is now? >> you've managed to sell it, spin it as a watershed moment where from we can build where from here we can build back better. i like now, back better. i like this. now, look, we've done quite a bit on the by—election, we're going the by—election, so we're going to it on right and to move it on right now and we're talk about next we're going to talk about next in spin room. police in the spin room. police officers claiming the officers are claiming the popular netflix show top boy glamorises wow. glamorises drug dealing. wow. okay. have put
