3:08 pm
been established and is expected to last until monday. well joining me now for analysis is the former british army commander, colonel richard kemp . commander, colonel richard kemp. colonel richard kemp. thank you very joining me. so what's very much joining me. so what's your view ongoing your view on the ongoing negotiations ? negotiations? >> well, i think , of course, the >> well, i think, of course, the release of kidnapped israeli citizens on the 7th of october is a very good news, although it's only a relatively small number of them that have been released so far in two batches today and yesterday . that's today and yesterday. that's a clearly very good news. the downside , of course, is that downside, of course, is that twofold really. i think, first of all, the deal has necessitated the release from israeli prisons of convicted terrorists who have been released in about a proportion of 3 to 1 for the hostages. that's very bad. and i think it's it comes out clearly when you see the celebration and the treatment of the heroes returning to freedom in the west bank, which i think, if anything, just strengthens
3:09 pm
hamas's hand, there. already, hamas's hand, there. already, hamas is popular in the west bank, this adds to it bank, but this adds to it because they're giving credit for release . and secondly, for that release. and secondly, i think the other the other major that this major disadvantages that this interrupts israel's prosecution of the destruction of hamas and it could lead, i think , to it could lead, i think, to a longer term ceasefire, which i think would be very bad news in terms of the need to destroy hamas. >> but a longer term ceasefire would be a good thing for the people of gaza because we do need to separate them from hamas and we need to consider the a lot of people are saying that it's not fair , you know, 1200 or it's not fair, you know, 1200 or 1400 people were killed on october the 7th. and they're saying that this this destruction of gaza and the collateral damage that comes with it is not really comparable in terms and that israel are going too far. so for those in gaza, this will be obviously a welcome pause . welcome pause. >> well, i'm not sure it will be. obviously, it's horrific. the death and destruction that's occurred in gaza . but i don't occurred in gaza. but i don't think it's reasonable to compare to sort of look at ratios of
3:10 pm
people killed. hamas set out deliberately to murder 1200 or more israeli civilians, whereas the idf is setting out to destroy the people that did that and prevent it from recurring as and prevent it from recurring as a threat on. fortunately, many palestinians have died in that process because of the way hamas fight hiding behind the civilian population . but i think the population. but i think the greater evil here is not unfortunately, it's maybe a horrible thing to say. it's not the death of innocent civilians in gaza , but it's the perpetual in gaza, but it's the perpetual threat that hamas will continue to pose to israel and the oppression, of course , of the oppression, of course, of the palestinian people in gaza by this terrorist regime . this terrorist regime. >> yeah, you would think , just >> yeah, you would think, just in my humble opinion, that people within gaza would actually be against hamas, seeing as in my view, it seems that they are the people perpetuating this conflict because if they stop, then this conflict it i suspect , would be conflict it i suspect, would be oven conflict it i suspect, would be over. or do you think that
3:11 pm
israel would continue to pursue hamas ? hamas? >> no, i think if hamas released all the prisoners, all the kidnapped people, they captured and laid down their weapons and surrendered effectively or agreed to leave the gaza strip, i think israel would stop fighting. that would be the probably the most desirable outcome . i don't think it's very outcome. i don't think it's very likely to happen . but that would likely to happen. but that would be that would be far preferable. it would stop the destruction and it would allow hamas to be replaced by a regime replaced in gaza by a regime that perhaps hopefully would be better for the people of gaza because it's hamas that's brought this death and destruction onto the citizens of gaza and they have to be terminated . terminated. >> it's going to be a tough job of course. now we know that they unearthed a lot of the tunnels as well. i hear some of the media have been allowed to go into some of these tunnels. and one in particular under the hospital. that correct? and hospital. is that correct? and have have heard any have you have you heard any reports of people doing this ? reports of people doing this? >> yes, believe that israel >> yes, i believe that israel obe some israeli media have been
3:12 pm
able i don't know about international media able to see some of the tunnel network. and i that's important i think that's very important because media, particularly because a media, particularly media in the west, casts doubt over whether the hamas were using these hospitals as headquarters , as military bases, headquarters, as military bases, and therefore question why it was necessary for israel to carry out attacks against hamas terrorists near those hospitals. so i think it's important that the world does see the evidence, which, you know, anyone who's been studying this problem for any length of time, including myself, know very well that hamas use these places as as has been documented as headquarters , been documented as headquarters, been documented as headquarters, been documented as headquarters, been documented and proven in the past . but been documented and proven in the past. but it is it been documented and proven in the past . but it is it is the past. but it is it is necessary to, i think, dismiss the doubts that that have grown in the media as well. >> colonel richard kemp, thank you so much. he's a former british army commander. thank you.thank british army commander. thank you. thank you . live in tel you. thank you. live in tel aviv. will joining me in the studio will geddes more studio is will geddes for more analysis. and he's an international security analyst. will, you very much will, thank you very much joining me right so they've
3:13 pm
unearthed tunnels was there literally no doubt that these things existed because there seemed to be a lot of resistance and denial that there was even a tunnel underneath the hospital ? tunnel underneath the hospital? >> well, i mean, as as has always been proven out and it's been known as richard was just saying, many , many years, saying, for many, many years, that under al—shifa hospital it was a hamas stronghold. it was where they were keeping weapons. and a lot and there was a lot of misreporting by other news agencies . not misreporting by other news agencies. not your misreporting by other news agencies . not your good selves. agencies. not your good selves. you've always been on the the you've always been on the on the nose with things. but nose with these things. but other like the bbc, for other agencies like the bbc, for example, who said that the large collection of kalashnikovs which were discovered in there perhaps were discovered in there perhaps were for the security department that there's a there's a lot of twisting of the truth. there's a lot of ambiguity, a lot of fog . lot of ambiguity, a lot of fog. al—shifa hospital has been known for many, many years as richard said, as a stronghold and position and hq for hamas, because i heard somebody saying there was a shed that no one was allowed to go into. >> and then there was a report
3:14 pm
in one of the papers where there was a british doctor who said who had worked in the hospital and they were allowed to go and they were not allowed to go beyond a certain point. oh, yeah, absolutely. quite yeah, absolutely. so it's quite incredulous the incredulous that actually the media to get people in there media had to get people in there to believe that was to believe that this was happening. seems to be happening. and there seems to be a ridiculous level of denial. i mean, i was listening on lbc of this who to talking this woman who was to talking alan levy. he was he was on a show for a period of time, and she was literally saying that this true, that this isn't this isn't true, that this isn't happening, that the death and destruction on the seventh wasn't and a lot the. wasn't real. and a lot of the. why do you think there seems to be this obsession with denial? >> i have idea. the thing >> i have no idea. and the thing which is driving me insane is that just complete misunderstanding many the misunderstanding by many of the people turning for the people turning up for the pro—palestine in pro—palestine marches in understanding exactly river understanding exactly what river to actually means. and to the sea actually means. and we'll anything and we'll we'll chant anything and we'll simply go along. maybe they haven't better to haven't got anything better to do day, and i'm sure do with their day, and i'm sure i'm insult few people i'm going to insult a few people by but i have by saying that. but i have palestinian friends and these are friends who tell you are friends who can tell you from mouths having from their own mouths having been hamas has
3:15 pm
been down there, that hamas has been down there, that hamas has been controlling the whole area. they've controlled gaza. gaza is pretty much hamas's location . pretty much hamas's location. and the palestinians to go back to the point that obviously we were covering earlier about the number of casualties, firstly , a number of casualties, firstly, a lot of those details are coming from hamas. when say, as is from hamas. when i say, as is always the case, we couldn't necessarily believe anything that their mouths. that comes out of their mouths. so terms of that real so in terms of that real catalogue of how many casualties there been and yes, there have been and yes, inevitably have been, and inevitably there have been, and i'm that there i'm not denying that there there haven't. we will only find haven't. but we will only find out exactly what it is. out in time exactly what it is. hamas been holding hamas have also been holding palestinians their palestinians. their vast majority them already majority of them have already affected and affected their escape and evacuation through south of gaza. and a of that has also gaza. and a lot of that has also been helped facilitated by been helped and facilitated by the they have helped them the idf. they have helped them with that safe passage. but hamas will use palestinians as human shields . human shields. >> well, will geddes, you stay with for little bit. i want with me for a little bit. i want to go live though, to tel to go live now, though, to tel aviv . joining me is uri geller. aviv. joining me is uri geller. he's a mystifier and he's there now . uri, he's a mystifier and he's there now. uri, thank you so much for joining it's always to joining me. it's always good to talk so can you give me
3:16 pm

3:17 pm
palestinian prisoners . for every palestinian prisoners. for every one israeli and nana. you might not know this, but when you read about palestinian women. yes and teenagers being released , these teenagers being released, these are not innocent people . every are not innocent people. every single one of them has been charged or convicted of some kind of an attack, including stabbing innocent israelis , stabbing innocent israelis, trying to set off car bombs. and they're all terrorists. but right now , the feeling is great, right now, the feeling is great, children are being released . children are being released. >> well, why ? we're obviously >> well, why? we're obviously very happy to see that people are being released. but one of the one of the things that i did not was i don't know whether you saw the interview with kay burley with alon levy , where he burley with alon levy, where he won ridiculous comparison. won this ridiculous comparison. and i don't know whether you saw did you see that it went viral ? did you see that it went viral? oh we've lost your sound . oh, oh we've lost your sound. oh, we've lost your sound , uri. oh, we've lost your sound, uri. oh,

3:19 pm
lineker, this is my opinion and condemn his tweet instead of paying condemn his tweet instead of paying him a fortune. and by the way, to finally by mean accusing israel of genocide in gaza is a is absurd because in the last 50 years. wait, listen, in the last 50 years, the population of gaza has grown by more than six times. what kind of genocide is this where the population grows ? this where the population grows? israel is committing . if israel israel is committing. if israel is committing genocide , then it is committing genocide, then it is committing genocide, then it is doing it. doing a very bad job. >> well, listen , obe gary is not >> well, listen, obe gary is not here to defend himself, but he should not have endorsed that tweet. and i'm not i'm not quite sure these bbc bosses have sure why these bbc bosses have done nothing about it. it's actually quite disgraceful. but do earlier i mean, do you know earlier i mean, they're alone their sort they're not alone in their sort of questioning and behaviour. they're not alone in their sort of qyou ioning and behaviour. they're not alone in their sort of qyou see 1g and behaviour. they're not alone in their sort of qyou see this1d behaviour. they're not alone in their sort of qyou see this clip?haviour. they're not alone in their sort of qyou see this clip? i'llour. they're not alone in their sort of qyou see this clip? i'll play did you see this clip? i'll play it for you. this is the one with kay burley when she's talking to alan levy. have listen to a alan levy. have a listen to a hostage negotiator this morning. >> the comparison >> he made the comparison between the 50 hostages, hostages that hamas has promised, promised to release as
3:20 pm
opposed to the 150 prisoners that are palestinians , that that are palestinians, that israel has said that it will release. and he made the comparis between the numbers and the fact that does israel not think that palestinian lives are valued as highly as israeli lives ? lives? >> that is an astonishing accusation . um hm. accusation. um hm. >> so this is how some of the media are. >> let me repeat, it is an astonishing accusation. and you know, it went viral. not only because of the terrible and appalling accusation and the question, but because his eyebrows, he went what? he went like that. he couldn't believe the question . so, look, we are the question. so, look, we are faced with this thing all the time . unfortunately, once more, time. unfortunately, once more, i'll repeat it. there are 1.7 billion muslims out there . we billion muslims out there. we have nothing towards the palestinians. have nothing towards the palestinians . we are we are palestinians. we are we are

3:27 pm
>> asia. this is from asia. >> asia. this is from asia. >> these are the western countries like america and europe. >> at the very bottom, you've got america. >> now we've reduced it very slightly in middle. slightly in the middle. >> where we? in the middle? >> the middle is north america and europe. that's north. well, listen, got listen, next time you've got stuff give it to us stuff like that, give it to us and we'll try and it on the screen. >> okay, fine. >> okay, fine. >> so that's north america and europe. but this growth here is now even accelerate cutting. china's big china's just announced a big increase in coal. we're now producing we're now burning more coal history. coal than ever in human history. when burning oil than when we're burning more oil than ever history. so to ever in human history. so to just ignore that and say just just to ignore that and say we've got to do more whilst the effect of that where i come from in is tata steel , effect of that where i come from in is tata steel, are in wales is tata steel, are making 3000 people redundant, putting in an electric furnace that actually is destroying 3000 jobs, which would probably knock on to 10,000 in the area. so a total area is economically devastated for the sake of nothing . and worse than that, nothing. and worse than that, we're paying £500 million worth of taxpayers money towards it and worse than that, we can't even make proper steel with it.
3:28 pm
so you can't make construction steel or boat, steel or bridge steel. so you have to import that it from china. so that import it from china. so that import it from china. so thatis that import it from china. so that is a madness. that import it from china. so that is a madness . that's what i that is a madness. that's what i want to say. >> says we're doing >> so he says that we're doing too much and nations too much and other nations should more . should be doing more. >> should you saying others >> should are you saying others should doing more? should be doing more? >> no, because i want more co2. so doing us a favour. so they're doing us a favour. okay. so they're doing us a favour. okeso wide shut, paul. >> so eyes wide shut, paul. that's where are. that's basically where you are. you've missed the last few years of happening globally in of what's happening globally in terms levels are terms of what the co2 levels are doing, terms of in terms of doing, in terms of in terms of increasing global temperatures. this we days this this week we had two days where temperatures reached plus two degrees over two degrees is not 1.5, but two degrees on single days , consecutive days single days, consecutive days globally we averaged out which is a signpost for in terms of going forward. so is this government doing enough? nowhere near enough. it's put the brakes on. it talks a bad talk. but look what has happened to us, though. >> we've gone this this to whatever you're saying where i don't know where they're taking the temperature from. but irrespective of that, what happens to us?
3:29 pm

3:43 pm
is that because they're also being peacefully being blocked peacefully blocked, and is what my two blocked, and this is what my two colleagues here sitting here were actually protesting about in front of vans. what's happening now is that these well, it's so disrespectful to khan. he's actually employed thugs as security thugs who are not recognisable, etcetera, to protect these vans. >> when you say thugs , how do >> when you say thugs, how do you know that they're thugs? >> well, you say they're not recognisable. in what way? well a lot of them have balaclavas on. >> a lot of them do not have recognisable security identification these identification tags. and these guys will tell you much more in a minute about the detail of all of but i was alerted to of this. but i was alerted to this across london, a good this right across london, a good 8 or 9 incidences where these security guys are actually fundamentally are breaking the law. they are actually using their alleged powers of in terms of protection of these vans to actually threaten people and abuse people. >> well, sadiq khan would say that what he's doing is protecting property, is protecting property, which is obviously within his jurisdiction mayor and jurisdiction as london mayor and he rights to do that because
3:44 pm
he has rights to do that because over a thousand of his cameras are so far been taken down by these blade runners . so surely these blade runners. so surely he's his rights to he's within his rights to protect them. >> he's not for the >> but he's not going for the blade he's going for blade runners. he's going for genuine, peaceful protesters around the vans are just around the vans who are just saying, we do not do not saying, no, we do not we do not want as you rightly want this as you rightly reported, two out of three people ejected to ulez. and these are people continuing this protest peacefully and lawfully . protest peacefully and lawfully. >> well, heather, talk to me about what happened to you then . about what happened to you then. >> well , where i about what happened to you then. >> well, where i was hit was at the end of my road. so we were saw on facebook or wherever. the fact that there was going to be a camera van the end of the a camera van at the end of the road, my husband and i went up there. we are peacefully protesting, if you like . we do protesting, if you like. we do not touch their vans . we've got not touch their vans. we've got a big sign that we hold up in front of the camera, which we're legally allowed to do peacefully, protest . um, and peacefully, protest. um, and that's what we were doing there. basically some other hooligan, whoever it may have been, came and sprayed their van. and
3:45 pm
incidentally, my husband's car with some foam or another for which the security people then decided to call the police and their security van or their car, should i say, because there's always a 2 or 3. well, at least two cars round the corner with more security guards in it. so so the security guards are arrived . one of them apparently arrived. one of them apparently i didn't see it, but pushed one of the other protesters that had just arrived accused him of spraying the car. it wasn't him. i don't know who it was. and there was a little bit of to a do, if you like. nothing violent as in there was no punching or kicking or anything like that. but this guy got pushed so he was a bit loud. and the van decided it wanted to go without waiting for the police. i was asked because they know that i'm quiet and reasonable . well, i quiet and reasonable. well, i was asked by one of the security guards that was in the actual
3:46 pm
van itself, if i could help him leave. and i said, i'm not going to help you leave. i'm not going to help you leave. i'm not going to stop you. so with that, i've walked of the van, walked to the rear of the van, which then put me between the van and the security guard, a security car . oh, god, no. the security car. oh, god, no. the van gone and the security van has gone and the security guard and the passenger got into the car and you can clearly see on the video, i'm just meandering at the back of the van or in front of the car at that point. not really paying a lot of attention . the security lot of attention. the security guards got into the car and he's gone like that to the driver. i could see that through the windscreen and he just drove at me. oh and i've hobbled away because he really hurt me. >> so he he hit me and there was a car behind you that was stationary. is that what you're saying? so you were in between two cars? >> no, the van had gone. >> no, the van had gone. >> the van had gone. >> the van had gone. >> and the car the security car is one that actually hit me. is the one that actually hit me. it then pushed me , as hit me it then pushed me, as in hit me and off my feet onto
3:47 pm
and knocked me off my feet onto the bonnet of the car. oh my gosh. then hobbled and gosh. i then hobbled away and i think happened so quickly, think it happened so quickly, but i think i got hit a second time, which knocked to time, which then knocked me to the the road on the the side of the road on the floor. >> claire, saw all this. so >> claire, you saw all this. so is she right? yeah. that is she right? well, yeah. that is, yes. what did you actually also happened before? >> know. and i heard >> was so i do know. and i heard they were they had called the police because of this incident . police because of this incident. they were waiting for the police and then they were given an order from their team leader, whoever to foxtrot whoever that is, to foxtrot oscar. the order. that's oscar. that's the order. that's what was said. i heard that said. with that, it became very erratic. the security. there were six security to whoever her husband, another very quiet man. and then obviously this other guy and they became very erratic trying to get this fan out. and it did actually sort of side knock somebody as it drove off, which is how most people kind of ended up in the road. like i said, that's how heather was already between the two vehicles. and then the other security got in the passenger
3:48 pm
car. i said , you can't let them car. i said, you can't let them go because there are some security that we do know and we get on with. so was two get on with. so there was two out the six that we do know out of the six that we do know and are amenable and we get on fine them. and i said, you fine with them. and i said, you can't let them leave. i said, because they've just knocked somebody. cared because they've just knocked sometwas cared because they've just knocked sometwas getting cared because they've just knocked sometwas getting the cared because they've just knocked sometwas getting the support about was getting the support car, very well car, which isn't very well marked. it just has like a maintenance kind sticker maintenance kind of sticker strip across the back of it and just a plain yellow strip down the peugeot's and the side there. peugeot's and yes, he essentially got in the passenger car and was waving him on.and passenger car and was waving him on. and as heather said, she was hit a second time. she couldn't get out of the way. and as she was trying to walk away, that's when they did actually just drive off and knocked her to the ground on the side of the road. and then i essentially did chase after them because there was no intention of them stopping. so i followed them and got them stopped some or 6 miles down stopped some 5 or 6 miles down the road where the police intercepted them. >> absolutely. you can you can see why i call them thugs. >> well, look, we can talk a lot
3:49 pm
about that want to show you. about that i want to show you. >> just warning from home. >> so just a warning from home. if watching at home that if you're watching at home that some the you might see some of the images you might see might quite distressing. might be quite distressing. but i show you what i wanted to show you what happened to heather's leg so you can see the damage. this is one of the bruises. if you're listening on radio, it's got listening on the radio, it's got a big almost like a bloodshot kind of patch all around the side of her knee. and then all around this. is this the other leg? no, it's the same leg. same leg? no, it's the same leg. same leg on the outside of the same leg on the outside of the same leg . a bruise. that's almost leg. a bruise. that's almost like a line going all the way down and then her foot also another bruise on the side of her foot, a very swollen leg as well. she's obviously she's got a crutch on the side there, but that she's got one big almost like a blistered bruise is just just below the skin surface. it's like a real kind of maroon red . and so you can imagine the red. and so you can imagine the pain in that. that must have beeni pain in that. that must have been i mean, that's quite a serious i'm still in an awful lot of pain now.
3:50 pm
>> 13 days later, this is only two weeks ago. >> yeah, two weeks tomorrow. but the thing is, whenever it's been reported in the papers or anything else , tfl's response to anything else, tfl's response to the reporters has always been there was no serious injuries. nobody from tfl or anybody else has contacted me and i'm having to chase the police investigation unit to actually get them to investigate . anybody get them to investigate. anybody else would have been arrested straight away and taken to the police station. whatever else. they spoke to the men at the side of the road when they eventually caught them after leaving the scene of an accident. they were let go, accident. and they were let go, ihave accident. and they were let go, i have no idea who to claim from . i have no his name. i have no his address. i have nobody's insurance details. and i've lost work and i won't be working next week either. legally, i can't. someone crutches. >> yeah, well, listen , we're >> yeah, well, listen, we're having a situation with your microphone at the moment. we'll
3:51 pm
come and sort that but come and sort that out. but claire, saw of this ? claire, you saw all of this? yes. what have you done as a result? i know you apparently chased you chased the driver . chased you chased the driver. >> i chased both of them. yeah, i managed to get the edge of the van, didn't have at van, which we didn't have at that and got them stopped that time. and got them stopped and stood front of the van. and stood in front of the van. and tried to drive into me. and they tried to drive into me. the was trying to move the van was trying to move forward, me a forward, barging me onto a roundabout with me, standing in front whilst the phone to the front whilst on the phone to the police saying, you're not going anywhere you've just anywhere because you've just run someone i someone over. what i was concerned was if concerned about was i think if this was a different incident, it with just everyday people, it would be handled differently . i would be handled differently. i just felt that based on the fact that they changed vehicles all the time, you don't have the same drivers and the same security to the same vehicle. so that once that vehicle got on the m25, we would have much harder job trying to pinpoint who was actually that who was actually driving that vehicle, believe it vehicle, because i believe it would covered. but this is would be covered. but this is part a much wider issue . you part of a much wider issue. you know , i wouldn't say we're
3:52 pm
know, i wouldn't say we're protesters as such . what we all protesters as such. what we all are collectively , and it has to are collectively, and it has to be said that these camera vans are actually coming into the boroughs that are posed ulez in the first place. and they're suburban areas. so where we are, we're surrounded by countryside fields and valleys, and we don't have trains and we don't have trams and we don't have very good public transport. so we already have a proportion of people, especially elderly, whose cars were not compliant, cannot afford to buy a new car, and are now essentially stuck at home. so what we are are are a collective of residents who care about the people in our community. and this is the same where the if you want to call us van blockers, but you're not doing a just stop oil. no, no, we're not exactly in that way. >> you're simply making an orderly protest just like the pro—palestinian protesters who i think are hate marchers. but hey , hey, ho. >> so we have actually a good relationship with the police because police do come out and, you know, we have a very good
3:53 pm
relationship with them. it's amicable. no there's amicable. there's no there's no issues, and issues, very sympathetic. and we've as long as we don't we've said as long as we don't touch the vans, which don't, we've said as long as we don't to somebody ns, which don't, we've said as long as we don't to somebody dithich don't, we've said as long as we don't to somebody did spray don't, we've said as long as we don't to somebody did spray some n't, we've said as long as we don't to somebody did spray some paint if somebody did spray some paint on them, we can't made them angry. >> yeah. yeah. so that's that's that's the problem is that somebody do something that somebody did do something that was have you got was irritating. how have you got about what's what's what's about 20s. what's what's what's next for this then? >> well, we've got to actually get bottom of this. who get to the bottom of this. who did for start? but we did this for a start? but we also want to get to the bottom of picture. who of the bigger picture. who authorises these are this authorises this? these are this is tax payers money being used authorises this? these are this is actuallyrs money being used authorises this? these are this is actually orchestrateaing used authorises this? these are this is actually orchestrateairand;ed to actually orchestrate a and i'm i'm going say this i'm sorry, i'm going to say this thugs actually hit innocent people. >> well, obviously he didn't do it on purpose, i'm sure. >> no, he did do it on purpose. >> no, he did do it on purpose. >> but don't know. but >> no, but you don't know. but this what this spokesperson this is what this spokesperson for mayor says. for the mayor of london says. any injury of course, any injury is, of course, a serious matter. and the met and tfl are investigating the circumstances of incident, circumstances of this incident, meaning metropolitan meaning while the metropolitan police say police are investigating police say police are inyan:igating police say police are inyan allegation criminal of an allegation of criminal damage road traffic damage and a road traffic collision biggin hill, a collision in biggin hill, a further was received further call was received stating been injured stating a woman has been injured after collision a after being in collision with a vehicle it attempted leave

4:23 pm
the great british debate, this houn the great british debate, this hour, i'm asking, is the hostage deal a major victory for israel or perhaps for hamas ? well, i'm or perhaps for hamas? well, i'm joined now by emma, which is the director of common sense , gary director of common sense, gary mond, founder of the national jewish society. con coughlin. he's a defence editor for the telegraph. and we'll get his security expert. we'll get us i'm going to start with you . i'm going to start with you. >> well, don't think it is >> uh, well, i don't think it is nana. >> uh, well, i don't think it is nana . think a pretty poor nana. i think it's a pretty poor deal to honest, we're deal to be honest, because we're looking palace looking at three palace justinian hostages or if you like, prisoners that are being exchanged for israeli citizens. these are israeli citizens , as these are israeli citizens, as the palestinians are all convicted criminals and these are not simply women and children . these are individuals children. these are individuals that have been interned for crime against israel. and whether that be the facilitation of terrorism acts or whether it be random violence against israelis. so i think this 3 to 1 ratio, it doesn't count for me. and it also works into hamas having this ceasefire, which gives them a chance to regroup. it heeds , obviously, the israeli
4:24 pm
it heeds, obviously, the israeli counter—offensive and fundamentally , it's going to be fundamentally, it's going to be difficult to maintain momentum for this conflict from the israel side to and try and eliminate hamas. well con coughun eliminate hamas. well con coughlin , well, i agree with coughlin, well, i agree with every word. >> well said. actually i would add to that that , um, you know, add to that that, um, you know, we've had a principle in the west going back 40 years or so that you do not negotiate with terrorists . terrorists. >> and here we are . >> and here we are. >> and here we are. >> the us has sanctioned this deal >> the us put pressure on israel to accept this deal so nobody in israel , to accept this deal so nobody in israel, certainly the to accept this deal so nobody in israel , certainly the israeli israel, certainly the israeli government, wants this deal. >> they want to carry on with their military offensive to destroy hamas. >> so and then you just have to look at the celebrations that are taking place in the west bank when these palestinian as well said these convicted terrorists are released. you've got pro hamas demonstrations
4:25 pm
taking place. so to me, it's an enormous own goal. enormous owi'i goal. >> enormous own goal. >> you think? but i mean, the hostages wouldn't think that. i mean, this is in a sense. let's go to emma webb. emma, there's hostages being released. so these are people's lives. and as these are people's lives. and as the israelis rightly said, these are, you know, these are worlds. each is a world within each person is a world within themselves. surely there's themselves. so surely there's some level victory for some level of victory for israel. yeah >> you've seen israelis today saying how important every life is and every every life is sacred. and so in a sense, yes , sacred. and so in a sense, yes, of course, this is a victory. i mean, imagine the relief from those families who have got their children and their loved ones back in their arms again. but on the other hand , imagine but on the other hand, imagine those who haven't seen their loved ones released today . there loved ones released today. there are still children and particularly babies. there is a very, very small baby who is still being kept hostage . and still being kept hostage. and the point is that hamas are trying to inflict as much suffering on israel as possible .
4:26 pm
suffering on israel as possible. they're going to draw this out. they're going to draw this out. they're going to torture the israeli people making this as israeli people by making this as drip fed as they possibly can. and until we see every single hostage released, every single baby , elderly woman , every baby, elderly woman, every single woman , man, child, single woman, man, child, innocent, who has been taken into captivity. yes of course, they are being exchanged , as they are being exchanged, as will said. absolutely right. they're done hostage exchange of this kind back in 2011. so in some ways, this could be sowing the seeds of future disaster. however importantly, there are two metrics by which a full victory will be measured. that is the complete release of all of the hostages, hostages, every last one to ensure that israeli citizens and also we should add the citizens of gaza are safe from hamas. victory will be
4:27 pm
measured by hamas being completely wiped out by israel. so, yes, this is a victory in one sense, but it isn't the ultimate victory is that even possible to completely wipe out hamas ? hamas? >> gary? i i to agree with almost everything that's been said. >> it's simply a question of whether this is a bad deal or a disaster deal. and the answer to that question we'll see in the next couple weeks what has next couple of weeks what has happenedis next couple of weeks what has happened is that israel's determined mission and ability to absolutely eradicate hamas , to absolutely eradicate hamas, which it must do, has been slowed down. >> and maybe even put into reverse. and we will know they answer that question in the next week or two. it's vitally important that israel does not get distracted from its main objective, which is the eradication of hamas. >> you see, there's also what has happened is israel's objectives. there are two objectives. there are two objectives. one is to get all the hostages the other the hostages free and the other is hamas. and to some is to destroy hamas. and to some extent, are in extent, those objectives are in conflict other. those conflict with each other. those who want to see all the hostages free are prepared to deal with
4:28 pm
hamas . those who want to see hamas. those who want to see hamas. those who want to see hamas eradicated , except that hamas eradicated, except that tragically, the hostages tragically, some of the hostages will make it. will not make it. >> i've got more faith in israel than though , because i than that, though, because i actually they you actually think that they you know, this has got to be know, this this has got to be a good thing that hostages are being released. a pause in the fighting may also give a fighting may also give them a chance regroup as well. i chance to regroup as well. i know this is not great with with regard to opponent , but regard to their opponent, but they are in the tunnels, they are now in the tunnels, aren't so in aren't they? so they're in the tunnels the hospital now. tunnels under the hospital now. they gone in the stronghold they have gone in the stronghold of the command centre for hamas and in a sense, what about the lives, though, of these people who have been released, gary? because that's that's positive because that's that's a positive thing. surely >> of course, every life saved is positive . but the question is is positive. but the question is there's a large numbers of hostages who are not going to be saved unless the israeli army is able to get to them, because as was said by one of the earlier speakers, uh, hamas is in the business of trying to string this out as long as it possibly can. >> will geddes well, i think
4:29 pm
really fundamentally it comes down to the fact that hamas have not released sufficient not also released sufficient information about the other 100 and 150 odd or 190 odd hostages, which they still have . which they still have. >> they're releasing on average about ten a day, which is going to go over a five day period. so when you bear that in mind, there are 50 israeli hostages , there are 50 israeli hostages, civilians, children, elderly people, infants who are going to be released against 150 convicted criminals from palestine who will be released back and made a very good point about one of the master minds behind the attack on october the 7th was someone who was exchanged , changed on a prisoner exchanged, changed on a prisoner swap with an idf soldier and subsequently went back to plan this attack. so i think hamas are using this. this attack. so i think hamas are using this . they're trying are using this. they're trying to use the optics on a positive level. they know that they've got international support. we see this with all the pro—palestine demonstrate actions and protests that are going on. and they're going to
4:30 pm
string this out for ages as this is under undermining the israelis. it's undermining netanyahu in terms of his strategy. and it's going to make it immensely difficult because hamas know that. and let's not let's not beat about the bush . let's not beat about the bush. we know that hamas knew there was going to be retribution in the wake of their attack on october 7. they're going to string this out for as long as they can. >> well, that's why took they can. >> hostages.�*s why took they can. >> hostages.�*s whylet's took they can. >> hostages. �*s whylet's be ok the hostages. let's let's be honest i on honest here. but i think on the grand scheme things, least grand scheme of things, at least some released some people have been released to and that to their families and that that has be a good thing. emma has got to be a good thing. emma webb, thank you very much, director sense director of common sense society, founder director of common sense sothey, founder director of common sense sothey, jewish founder director of common sense sothey, jewish society er director of common sense sothey, jewish society ,' of the national jewish society, con coughlin, editor for con coughlin, defence editor for the telegraph. and we'll get us security thank you very security expert. thank you very much. well, what do you think at home? think the home? do you think that the hostage victory for hostage deal is a victory for israel? they didn't seem to israel? they they didn't seem to think so. this is gb news on tv, onune think so. this is gb news on tv, online and on digital radio. coming continue with coming up, we'll continue with the debate this the great british debate this houn the great british debate this hour. is the hour. and i'm asking, is the hostage deal major victory hostage deal a major victory for israel? you'd hear thoughts israel? you'd hear the thoughts of my panel, broadcaster and columnist cundy. also

4:39 pm
worried the next the next worried about the next the next last section of the conflict. okay. >> lizzie, lizzie , i well, look , >> lizzie, lizzie, i well, look, there's hope. >> there's hope. but the fact is , is i mean , look, we've got , is i mean, look, we've got there's three sets. we've got women and children . we've got women and children. we've got foreign internal nationals, and we've got israeli soldiers that are being held hostage . and it's are being held hostage. and it's are being held hostage. and it's a really it's a very, very sensitive time. i'm very concerned for the rest of the hostages is whether they're going to get released. i really am. and don't forget , hamas are am. and don't forget, hamas are terrorists. how do you negotiate with a terrorist ? you can't you with a terrorist? you can't you can't you can't trust them. and the fact is, let me give you some facts on the terrorists. >> very grim organisation. >> very grim organisation. >> listen, the terrorists, the hamas leaders are actually in qatar and they have personal wealth of 3.5 billion. they've got their wealth from the aid, thieving the money should be for
4:40 pm
the gaza and palestine people. sadly, they have robbed them and this is what the worry is. and you know, how are the rest of the hostages going to be released as i said, we've got foreign nationals there. there are israeli soldiers there. and the proportion of what's being swapped, innocent children and the elderly for prisoners that are criminals. i mean , i don't know. >> it's not a farce. i mean, it's if we can get that clip from kay burley earlier, i don't know whether you saw it , but know whether you saw it, but we'll rustle it up in a moment and we'll show you it. >> but it was quite ridiculous what she was talking about. i don't to repeat it. don't even want to repeat it. we'll and show you we'll play it and show you in a moment. with other seem moment. but with the other seem to think i mean, emma will and gary, they all seem to believe and con seem to think that actually this wasn't a great move at all for israel. but surely i think it's absolutely i think global pressure. >> i'm not saying it's a great move. i'm saying it's a necessary move, as you say. it makes makes very makes us it makes anybody very uncomfortable seeing uncomfortable to be seeing innocent children uncomfortable to be seeing innoceswapped children uncomfortable to be seeing innoceswapped for children uncomfortable to be seeing innoce swapped for peopleiren being swapped for people who've
4:41 pm
been israeli been convicted in israeli courts. it's not it's not courts. so it's not it's not it's not a fair swap in any sense, but it's a necessary swap. and i think it's not only for internal israeli issues, but also that international also to keep that international coalition support , which coalition of support, which behind israel, which is so necessary, it can't be just israel and the us versus the rest . so the more that gets rest. so the more aid that gets in, more people fed in in, the more people are fed in southern , the more i think southern gaza, the more i think that enables gives israel the space do what it needs to do. space to do what it needs to do. but got the but you see, we've got the marches today , which marches on again today, which i'm a ceasefire. so it's i'm afraid a ceasefire. so it's not even very make sense. >> they are terrifying . and we >> they are terrifying. and we had one of our news reporters from gb news having a terrible time out there at and i'm afraid to say they're saying ceasefire, ceasefire. but you've got to have ceasefire with a purpose. what is going to happen after the ceasefire and what is going to actually happen after these days where we've got this pause ? days where we've got this pause? what happens that? fifth what happens after that? fifth day? happens? because day? what happens? because israel objective is to get rid of hamas because they are a terrorist group. well, listen, let me play this clip.
4:42 pm
>> this is kay burley speaking to ellen he an israeli to ellen levy. he is an israeli spokesperson. and listen to her ridiculous question . ridiculous question. >> i was speaking to a hostage negotiator here this morning. he made the comparison between the 50 hostages, the hostages that hamas has promised, promise list to release as opposed . to the to release as opposed. to the 150 prisoners that are palestinians , that israel has palestinians, that israel has said that it will release. and he made the comparison between the numbers and the fact that does israel not think that palestinian lives are valued as highly as israeli lives ? highly as israeli lives? >> well, those i say it say it all. there was an extraordinary question. >> she's it was just the most ridiculous question. >> so and you saw his response when he was there was a bit of his response , i think. his response, i think. >> yeah. i mean, but i mean, look, i mean, what an absolutely daft question. mean, daft, daft question. i mean, clearly it's actually the reverse. i mean, you know, you can argue don't think it's can argue i don't think it's correct, reverse correct, but if the reverse of it obviously numbers correct, but if the reverse of it been obviously numbers correct, but if the reverse of it been demanded numbers correct, but if the reverse of it been demanded by numbers
4:43 pm
correct, but if the reverse of it been demanded by hamas,; have been demanded by hamas, they're not being set by the israelis. and i'm sure that hamas start hamas asked for 500 to start with. then the with. and then in the negotiations, with the negotiations, which with the government qatar brokered negotiations, which with the goverthat nt qatar brokered negotiations, which with the goverthat camelatar brokered negotiations, which with the goverthat came down 3rokered negotiations, which with the goverthat came down to kered negotiations, which with the goverthat came down to it.ed negotiations, which with the goverthat came down to it. so that, that came down to it. so to say that, you know , it's just to say that, you know, it's just i mean , that's just i mean, to say that, you know, it's just i mean , that'sjust i mean, i'm i mean, that's just i mean, i'm shocked. i didn't see it because i wasn't watching that channel. >> i mean, i'm >> that's just i mean, i'm sorry, but i've it's absolutely insulting. it really is insulting. it really is insulting. i'm afraid to say. and i don't know what she was thinking, was saying that i really don't absolutely insult . really don't absolutely insult. but what i want to say is, is after this pause , what is going after this pause, what is going to happen? and in this pause , to happen? and in this pause, which i've been told, hamas are regrouping. they're trying to get vehicles and aid through with weapons . and, you know , with weapons. and, you know, that's only making hamas stronger. is you know, this pause. this is the problem . um, pause. this is the problem. um, so you know, how is this ever going to get sorted ? going to get sorted? >> and i think you say that, but isuppose >> and i think you say that, but i suppose in some respects, yes, i suppose in some respects, yes, i get it that hamas might try and regroup in this time. but in and regroup in this time. but in a way it will hopefully make
4:44 pm
israel as well because israel stronger as well because the will be of more the world will be sort of more behind a way. i mean, behind them in a way. i mean, they to think about they have we have to think about they have we have to think about the humanitarian. think that's the humanitarian. i think that's absolutely key. >> now, without a doubt, the palestinian in gaza, palestinian people in gaza, there be many who don't there will be many who don't support hamas. >> let's honest , if >> and let's be honest, if you're environment, you're in that environment, you're in that environment, you're say anything you're not going to say anything because otherwise you're next. they i saw they don't care. they i saw this awful in the west bank awful thing in the west bank where they had somebody some people who they put on some electric poles and was electric poles and it was absolutely horrendous . so absolutely horrendous. so i think actually if you're think that actually if you're there, you can't really speak out anyway . so think out anyway. and so i think a pause , it has to it has to stop pause, it has to it has to stop at point . at some point. >> but must remember on that >> but we must remember on that dreadful october, hamas dreadful day in october, hamas knew what they were doing and they they kept that the hostages internationally, thailand have already done a deal with them to have theirs released. first. it was an international butchery , was an international butchery, but it was. and that's why yeah, it's been forgotten. and that's what we can never , ever forget. what we can never, ever forget. >> well, look at, as israel rightly said, that every person who is released is that they're a world. they've got a whole
4:45 pm
world of people around them, and they are world and so i'm glad they are world and so i'm glad they have been released. but this you and this is nothing without you and your our this is nothing without you and your british our this is nothing without you and your british voice, our this is nothing without you and your british voice, their our great british voice, their opportunity be on the show opportunity to be on the show and us they really opportunity to be on the show and about they really opportunity to be on the show and about the they really opportunity to be on the show and about the topics really opportunity to be on the show and about the topics we're think about the topics we're discussing. to discussing. should we go to bristol? yeah, i love that bristol? well, yeah, i love that my map is back. let's see, lee harris. you see the harris. lee, did you see the map? did see the map. map? i did see the map. >> it's back. >> it's back. >> it's back. the >> it's back. the map >> it's back. the map is >> it's back. the map is back. is it? we're all happy , but it's is it? we're all happy, but it's not long. i mean, if i have one criticism of the map, it's a start. too far away. then start. too far away. but then we've too much. we've moved too much. >> like you in >> it's like when you wrote in your it? you know, your book, isn't it? you know, bristol, the england the universe, bristol, the england the uni'sose, do think, is >> so what do you think, lee? is this a major victory major this a major victory or a major win? you can't it's all win? i mean, you can't it's all awful. but on the grand scheme of things, is this a positive move for israel ? move for israel? >> yeah, i agree with the panel and i agree with matthew for a change. um, being able to get any the innocent civilians which as we know include women and children from 240 hostages being held by this barbaric death cult
4:46 pm
is definitely a good thing . but is definitely a good thing. but it is desperately unfair that israel had to release 150 violent criminals in return for 50 women and children. but i do understand why they're trying to do everything they can to bring these hostages home. so this is a victory for israel in that sense . and it's definitely a sense. and it's definitely a victory for the small number of families that their loved ones return . but it's far from over. return. but it's far from over. and there is no doubt that hamas are also benefiting from this pause in military action. so this will have, you know , this will have, you know, negative consequences for israel's effort to wipe hamas out . but as we know, these evil out. but as we know, these evil terrorists are still holding around 200 innocent civilians who are ripped away from their families and homes during the most barbaric massacre against jewish people since the holocaust. you know, they they kidnapped nine month old baby who became it's ridiculous . who became it's ridiculous. >> yeah. what is a nine month?
4:47 pm
it's ridiculous . what is a nine it's ridiculous. what is a nine month old baby ever done to them? it's absurd. the whole thing is just an absolute nonsense. and it's terrifying. terrifying for all of us, actually, when you imagine that they literally into they literally went into people's massacred people's homes and massacred them. we want people them. and we don't want people like that. we don't want them. people that lee people like that around lee harris, much. harris, thank you so much. really talk you. harris, thank you so much. really you talk you. harris, thank you so much. really you so talk you. harris, thank you so much. really you so much. you. harris, thank you so much. really you so much. and u. harris, thank you so much. really you so much. and i think thank you so much. and i think in not our right. in respect, it's not our right. they need out we they do need to root out that we cannot that of cannot have that kind of behaviour planet. we behaviour on this planet. we cannot in cannot have people behaving in that way being that way and that being acceptable. keep your acceptable. we'll keep your thoughts gb thoughts coming. aslef a gb views some views gbnews.com. i'll read some of come back. of them when we come back. but on next at five it's on the way next at five it's this week's difficult conversation tv personality harnoncourt. now she's been living with polycystic ovarian syndrome and has excess body hair. now she has hair on her face as well. she's been living like that as well. she'll be joining me in speaking about the bullying that she's had to endure. first, let's get endure. but first, let's get some weather. >> hello there. i'm greg dewhurst and welcome to your latest gb news weather forecast . latest gb news weather forecast. it is staying on the cold side

4:55 pm
anything . you're just talking anything. you're just talking about it. you can say, are they going to have orange hair? are they going you know, they going to have, you know, brown eyes? it's not anything like but meghan has made like that. but meghan has made it grow . she wasn't even though it grow. she wasn't even though she when the comment. no, she i think she was there for the second one because it's not necessarily royal, necessarily a royal, but actually in the beginning of 23, harry was interviewed for his book spare me, and he said that they didn't say that. she didn't say anything about them being racist . it said it was racist. it said it was unconscious bias, whatever, that means. right. it wasn't a racist and it wasn't racist at all. so we have this swap swap swap swap , which is what goes on all the time. and in a way, this is what's happening about we do want to come over for christmas and we don't want to come over for christmas because if you know what's coming up and this book have what they book would have been what they knew, would you want to go knew, why would you want to go there? doesn't. said there? she doesn't. it said in there? she doesn't. it said in the book that she absolutely can't bear the royal family and

5:09 pm
excess level of androgen in my body which causes , as you know, body which causes, as you know, the hirsutism and south asia's we're quite hearse you anyway and so and then i have policies tick ovarian syndrome on top of that which 1 in 10 women just in the uk have and it's the leading cause of in fertility amongst women and the leading endocrine condition amongst us as well. so yeah , it's not it's not as rare yeah, it's not it's not as rare as i thought when i was first diagnosed. there'll be a lot of people looking at you wishing that like that that hair would grow like that that hair would grow like that right . that on their heads right. >> what's your hair like underneath? wearing this turban. >> my turban? what's your hair turban. >> iunderneath?ihat's your hair like underneath? >> it long as well? >> is it really long as well? i bet you've got stunning air as well. >> e know what my >> do you know what my hair is? just up to my chest. yeah i used to used to my hair to my mum used to all my hair every i was every single day when i was younger. used come younger. so it used to come down all my knees. but all the way to my knees. but this you this condition impacts, you know, we've your up here as know, we've your hair up here as well. so, you know, it's thinned and things like that. >> so. so what happens on the top is that the goes top is that the hair goes thinner. yes. then got
5:10 pm
thinner. yes. then you've got the excess hair here. >> right? so imagine what happens to men when they have testosterone . but then imagine testosterone. but then imagine that happening in a woman's body. so the male pattern of baldness, you know, but we're able to grow a beard. it's weird how this condition. yeah >> so talk to me about the condition then because i've heard it so many times, i don't really get what i hear. really get what it is i hear. and think sounds something really get what it is i hear. ando think sounds something really get what it is i hear. ando with< sounds something really get what it is i hear. an do with the sounds something really get what it is i hear. an do with the ovaries. omething really get what it is i hear. ando with the ovaries. i�*nething really get what it is i hear. ando with the ovaries. i don't1g to do with the ovaries. i don't what what is what what is it? what's happening and what does it mean to you? and i hear obviously things you seem to have propensity to your have like a propensity to your bodies terms of bodies more male in terms of hair and things like that. >> so born woman raised a woman very proud to be a woman . the very proud to be a woman. the only thing is, is i have an imbalance of hormones, right? it's not something that i can physically . obviously, there's physically. obviously, there's medication i can take and i'm on all the medication i can possibly be on to correct, you know, what's happened to my body. condition itself, body. but the condition itself, there's no cure for it. the side effects such as the irregular
5:11 pm
periods, the weight gain , the periods, the weight gain, the insulin resistance, the hirsutism , um, these things we hirsutism, um, these things we can actually medicate and sort out. but the condition itself, there's no cure. so with me, i have cysts in my ovaries that is causing a lack of ovulation, which is going to then sort of stop me from having my menstrual cycle. i'm very lucky i'm on the medication, so i get them every month. but again, it's the reasons why a lot of women can't actually conceive, not just that, but it impacts your mental wellbeing and your emotional stability as well, because once those hormones are up and down and in disarray, i mean, you can imagine what it's like just menstruating. once a month, your hormones are and down anyway. hormones are up and down anyway. but living but imagine living with something it's something like that. it's a chronic and impacts chronic illness and it impacts your quality of life. and everything about you. >> and how do you obviously you have external effects so have the external effects so people can see, but there'll be people can see, but there'll be people who don't have that
5:12 pm
degree of it. so how do you know that you've got this condition? >> oh, wow. so the first thing is what are your periods like ? is what are your periods like? you know, what's your health like? are you having gut issues ? like? are you having gut issues? that's big. is there is your body having some sort of info ? body having some sort of info? summation issues are you having issues with getting pregnant ? issues with getting pregnant? are you is your are you gaining weight? you know , and we tend to weight? you know, and we tend to gain weight a lot around the midsection, around our ovaries, around our main organs. and it's around our main organs. and it's a it's scary, you know, but but andifs a it's scary, you know, but but and it's hard for us to lose weight as well because where we have the insulin resistance and then is not being then the glucose is not being utilised within our body. so we're packing on the way. we're packing what is way insulin resistance insulin resistance for those insulin resistance for those insulin resistance your body resistance is where your body stops working with the insulin that your pancreas is creates thing to bring the sugar or the glucose down within your body. so imagine when you're on a diet
5:13 pm
or nutrition plan that's just high in sugar , there's only so high in sugar, there's only so much that the insulin , which is much that the insulin, which is a hormone that your pancreas creates, can do. so it gets to a point where it just stops working or it resists to work . working or it resists to work. so it's not bringing the sugar levels down. that will then increase your androgen level and that will, you know, you will pack on weight that way. >> wow. you've not put on weight. >> you i've lost i used to hit 100kg. i've lost a lot of weight. so now my i don't even know what that is. >> what's that in stone. >> what's that in stone. >> oh god . i think it's hitting. >> oh god. i think it's hitting. nearly £200. what >> that stone? >> that stone? >> i have no idea. >> i have no idea. >> it must be about 14. >> it must be about 14. >> 15. i don't know. >> 15. i don't know. >> but i'm 15. i'm glad i'm not their stone. i'm just glad i'm not there. >> yeah, you've really come down. you must be size ten, i'd say. no, i'm still. >> i'm. no, no, no i'm still size 16. which is. yeah where's it gone. the thing. yeah i dress really well. would never see it the way i've crossed my legs.
5:14 pm
you can't see the belly fat but yeah, it's always situated there. yeah >> that's tough isn't it. and you say there's drugs that help to counteract it. so for women who don't have the signs so , you who don't have the signs so, you know, she has the hair and things like that but others you need to sort of look at their penods need to sort of look at their periods and see what's going on and when obviously for you because the actual because you have the actual effects did that effects of it, when did that start happening ? when was that? start happening? when was that? oh, imagine start happening? when was that? oh,imagine i hit puberty at a >> imagine i hit puberty at a very young age. i was in year six. years . six. so in years. >> so how old are you? oh, god. >> so how old are you? oh, god. >> like hitting >> what, like ten hitting 11? yeah, very young. i'm 33 and four days. i'm just a bit like. come on, i've had it for two decades. nearly. i'm done with it know. but yeah , i it now, you know. but yeah, i was. i didn't realise that i had facial hair until i started being bullied for having facial hair women in my hair because the women in my family, it's normal, you know, like the arm hair or a little bit here. so i didn't realise that it was an issue until i started being bullied for it. and, you know, i went to the

5:22 pm
closer ties with the eu ? aren't closer ties with the eu? aren't we close enough? according to the foreign secretary, britain needs to work more with needs to work more closely with brussels on international and defence policy, calling the bloc a friend, a neighbour and a partner. well, that's not what they thought about us when we decided leave. and was he decided to leave. and it was he who ran away. lord cameron has faced instant backlash from faced an instant backlash from tory have warned him tory mps who have warned him against the brexit against reigniting the brexit debate , of which found debate, of which he found himself in on the losing side. so i'm asking because he lost. he didn't get what he wanted. that's why he quit. so i'm asking, as david cameron says, britain closer with britain needs closer ties with the you agree? so joining the eu. do you agree? so joining me to debate this, stephen pound, mp denis pound, former labour mp denis macshane, former minister for the state of europe, belinda de lucy , former party mep . lucy, former brexit party mep. i'm going to start with you. dm, i'm going to start with you. dm, i call him dangermouse denis macshane. watch out, denis . is macshane. watch out, denis. is he right? on it's wonderful. >> i sent that speech into david. i didn't really think he was going to use it, but i'm very glad he has it. >> what's he playing at?
5:23 pm
>> what's he playing at? >> he's taking the michael rawley, isn't he? he took out rawley, isn't he? he took us out of brexit. he's called lord brexit europe . he broke all brexit in europe. he broke all links european conservative links with european conservative centre right parties in 2009, before he became pm, didn't do anything to negotiate intelligently and lumbered us. then with the charms of theresa may, boris johnson, liz truss and rishi sunak. >> so he really is taking the pie as well. >> but then he ran away though, didn't he run away? he ran away after the vote, which he didn't get what he wanted and now he's back telling us how should back telling us how we should have on but have closer ties on it. but ultimately, do think that ultimately, do you think that he's need closer he's right that we need closer ties eu? the ties with the eu? that's the question ties question we need better ties with certainly the with everybody and certainly the cutting links for the cutting of the links for the last eight years with our last nearly eight years with our prime trade partners cost prime trade partners has cost england, very dearly. england, britain very dearly. >> our young people can't travel. they can't find work . travel. they can't find work. it's nuts . sooner or later, all it's nuts. sooner or later, all the opinion polls are now saying that he's in tune with the opinion polls, but nobody's going to trust him or rishi
5:24 pm
sunak or any of those sort of anti—european tories to do anything to keir starmer relation. well, we'll wait and see on, on sir keir, but we do need a change of government. whatever happens. >> well, i'm going to go straight to belinda de lucy . straight to belinda de lucy. >> it's total codswallop that young people can't travel in the eu or work if they fill out the right forms. so so that's not quite true . look. quite true. look. >> oh, gosh . mean as if >> oh, gosh. mean as if democracy isn't worth a few form filling minute. >> it's what i would say is this there's no problem being neighbourly or friendly with the eu. >> if they if they are friendly and respectful to us. it's the ties, closer ties . there's no ties, closer ties. there's no such thing as ties. >> it's chain says it's a it's a it's a stone around our neck of democracy. >> having any cooperation with the eu because all they want is you give them an inch , they'll you give them an inch, they'll take a mile. and unfortunately ,
5:25 pm
take a mile. and unfortunately, my concern with the sort of arch remainers is back in power in our government, like cameron and hunt. is that fundamentally they believe that selling off democratic agency of the british electorate is worth a few travel and trade perks for a minority of people in this country who can use them and they and don't trust our sovereignty in the hands of them because all they want to do is impress their chums on international stage anyway. >> mhm . nicely put. belinda. >> mhm. nicely put. belinda. stephen pound good afternoon anna. >> apparently i, i hear from a reliable source that when he was getting fitted up for his title for the house of lords , somebody for the house of lords, somebody suggested that he take the title of the ancestral home of the cameron clan which is blairmore castle . castle. >> and apparently somebody said should it be more blair rather than blair, more ? and i think than blair, more? and i think this is the difficulty a this is the difficulty here. a lot like me, who are lot of people like me, who are passionately pro—european, but above all, we're democrats and we know that the have we know that the people have spoken undo that . spoken and we can't undo that. >> can't unpick the
5:26 pm
omelette. >> but the reality is that if he thinks he can have a trojan horse and get us back into to europe back door, europe through the back door, then he not only profoundly then he is not only profoundly mistaken, profoundly mistaken, but he is profoundly anti—democratic , because think anti—democratic, because i think sometimes , stephen, they think sometimes, stephen, they think that we're stupid and that that we're a bit stupid and that we can't understand nobody would ever make that assumption about you. >> nana i don't think he would. >> nana i don't think he would. >> he would allow >> i think he would dare allow me interview but i would me to interview him, but i would like it if he could. david if you're watching we'd to you're watching, we'd love to hear you did hear your views because you did run when you run away after brexit when you didn't wanted. but didn't get what you wanted. but does stephen does it not feel to you, stephen i mean, you're that maybe he's trying to what didn't get trying to get what he didn't get before to bring us before and trying to bring us back eu, which i back into the eu, which is i think lot of people are think what a lot of people are worried well. worried about as well. >> i think is >> i mean, i think dennis is right. the friends right. we need all the friends we get. quite happy to we can get. i'm quite happy to talk people. we get kemi talk to people. we get kemi badenoch about badenoch he's talking about doing deals with with vietnam and important and ecuador and important places like happy with like that. i'm quite happy with that. reality he that. but the reality is if he thinks can actually thinks that he can actually build a trojan horse and get us back into brussels and strasbourg that way, then i'm sorry , but you know that that is sorry, but you know that that is not on. it is simply
5:27 pm
anti—democratic. it is not the way do things this way we do things in this country. and you simply cannot reverse decision that. reverse the decision on that. in my opinion, the unhappy my in my opinion, the unhappy decision june decision of june 2016. >> dennis how much closer can we get to them anyway? because he's talking what get to them anyway? because he's talyou what get to them anyway? because he's talyou think what get to them anyway? because he's talyou think he what get to them anyway? because he's talyou think he actually what get to them anyway? because he's talyou think he actually means do you think he actually means by that's quite by that? because that's quite a broad brush. a broad term , broad brush. it's a broad term, isn't it? ties. isn't it? closer ties. >> to be fair, to be >> i mean, to be fair, to be serious for half a second, he was talking about defence security. britain is a security. he said britain is a european power. i don't think even tony blair used that kind of hubristic language and that we have done the most for ukraine. that is just garbage. all we've done for ukraine is send people like liz truss , send people like liz truss, bons send people like liz truss, boris johnson and now david cameron for photo opportunities in kyiv. we sent some weapons, but germany sent far more. the americans have sent most and the americans have sent most and the american arms industry is coining in the profit. >> but didn't it to take hold on? you said germany sent far more didn't at one point they'd only sent some hats and things like that. >> no, no, no, no.
5:28 pm
>>— >> no, no, no, no. >> complaining that >> people were complaining that germany you. germany had to begin with you. >> right. big change of >> quite right. big change of mind and called the titan vendor in german . and now the leopard in german. and now the leopard tanks are rolling. they're the stats say after america, germany is the single biggest supplier of help, military help ? well, of help, military help? well, eventually, too. yeah. no, it took time. we talked a big talk. we trained a lot of soldiers. the army's been very good, but the main thing we said is had shoulder held anti—tank missiles, which are made in belfast . hooray! but by a french belfast. hooray! but by a french company. thank god for france saving the british arms industry. well at least we were one of the quickest to get there. >> but linda deluise, do you think that what he's talking aboutis think that what he's talking about is some sort of scary way of trying to get us back into the eu? do you think that's where he's going with this? >> that the sort >> well, it's just that the sort of trust has been broken. i think , between the brexiteers think, between the brexiteers and remainers in cabinet, because since 2016 the tories have been fighting within
5:29 pm
themselves about brexit. 60% of themselves about brexit. 60% of the cabinet now voted remain . the cabinet now voted remain. and like labour did in two thousand and seven, signing the lisbon treaty behind closed doors, a sort of rip packaged eu constitution . they are always constitution. they are always trying to slip us back in without the consent of the people and what i worry about is that a lot of these politicians no longer really care about national applause or what we want their stage is the globe now and the eu always wants something in return. it's never fair . and the eu want us back fair. and the eu want us back because they see us as a cash cow. so the question is, what are the conditions of us having closer ties with the eu? >> any more decision making power goes over to them and we'll be back on the street . we'll be back on the street. >> why are you laughing? >> why are you laughing? >> dennis well, dear, dear, bullied the idea of britain being a cash cow. we haven't got to luncheon vouchers to rub together. we're the poorer country in gdp per capita terms. in the g7, they don't want us
5:30 pm
back. they now think we will be there knocking on the door saying, can we have a handout for this? can we do levelling up with european money? let's get it right . we are not any longer it right. we are not any longer the power that once we were . the power that once we were. >> well, then answer me this. why within days of david cameron coming back, did he start talking about tens of billions of dollars? he was going to spend extra on foreign aid of taxpayers money. you know, suddenly they can find money for climate. this and helping other people around the world. and yet you say that we've got no money. they seem to be able to find it when they want to impress their international when they want to impress their intethatonal when they want to impress their intethat was david. david cameron >> that was david. david cameron is proud. one of few things is proud. one of the few things he fairly dismal, he did and a fairly dismal, lustrous premiership. he thinks was to actually instruct mentalize the idea that the churches and all sorts of outfits said 0.7% to help the poorest of the world to get a bit richer. in fact, if the poorer countries of the world were a bit richer, maybe they
5:31 pm
wouldn't send so many immigrants to us and the rest europe. to us and the rest of europe. that of course, that then was axed, of course, by boris johnson, because he doesn't give a monkey's about the third world. >> you don't that . dennis >> you don't know that. dennis a lot supposition here. you're lot of supposition here. you're just making stuff up now. >> . david, david, david, >> no, no. david, david, david, david cameron is wants to have all his old failed yesterdays back. he'd like to get us back to 0.7. actually surely there will be hosannas in every pulpit on a sunday if any government returned to that. i don't think david's going to get rishi sunak. i mean, rishi could sign the cheque personally himself. he didn't notice. >> i've to stop you there, >> i've got to stop you there, dennis. don't know what you're dennis. i don't know what you're talking about. anybody talking about. does anybody know what's so finally what's going on? so finally then, do you agree then, david cameron says britain needs closer to belinda closer ties to the eu. belinda de do yes or no? de lucy do we? yes or no? >> definitely not, because that's not what it really means. so no but no ties. so no friendly but no ties. >> stephen pound, europe's got major problems at the moment with geert wilders and george maloney. >> there's real problems in europe . think, be honest, europe. i think, to be honest, this probably not the best

tory party. so yeah. thank you rishi very much for that . and rishi very much for that. and uh, it also cements their position of sliding towards the liberal left so we know exactly where they are. so it removes any doubt . um, but we do have an any doubt. um, but we do have an unelected prime minister where they're normally elected by the membership of the party. yeah. bringing in, appointing someone who's not even elected as an mp into the cabinet. you know, it's, it's an affront to democracy . uh, it shows, i think democracy. uh, it shows, i think , really poorjudgement on rishi died. so we have cameron so, alan, in a yes or no , do we need alan, in a yes or no, do we need is he right? >> so we need closer ties with the eu, yes or no . the eu, yes or no. >> absolutely not. to remove the yes or no, no, no, no. >>— yes or no, no, no, no. >> that was all. brian dugan in soniia . what do you think ? soniia. what do you think? >> well, look, i mean , i think >> well, look, i mean, i think it's a storm in a teacup in terms of the immediate reaction,
