people land at bristol airport, they'll immediately see the most british thing in the whole of britain. i think they just didn't know what to do with the smoking area. now that smoking is banned. so changed the is banned. so they changed the sticker look that sticker on it. and look at that sticker on it. and look at that sticker with that picture. if it doesn't out as a prayer doesn't work out as a prayer zone, easily be zone, it can easily be repurposed using the same badge as glory hole. meanwhile all as a glory hole. meanwhile all the taliban have revealed a rollerblading division . yeah, rollerblading division. yeah, that's right. a rollerblading division . here they are on the division. here they are on the streets of kabul . the taliban streets of kabul. the taliban clearly have no word for irony. they execute people for homosexuality. then strap on the rollerblades and wiggle their little sexy tushies and rollerblades in a very homoerotic manner . it's like the homoerotic manner. it's like the cliff richard wired for sound video. if he was wired for a suicide bomb, it's not the starlight express, it's the inshallah starlight express. it's torvill and karim dancing on isis. yeah, i've got millions of these. he was a skater boy. she said, please don't stone me to death for wearing my hijab.

incorrect ali. but please don't worry. we could never get rollerblading . islamic morality. rollerblading. islamic morality. police roads police here because our roads are bad . how does kabul have are too bad. how does kabul have better roads than glasgow? i don't understand . listen, if an don't understand. listen, if an islamic caliphate is the only way to get our potholes fixed, i'm all for it. there were riots in dublin this week. sadly, after an algerian man stabbed children in an absolutely tragic incident. although you wouldn't know that an algerian man who stabbed children looking at the mainstream media, the bbc said it's not clear what caused the unrest. according to them, people spontaneously started rioting and looting . the rioting and looting. the mainstream media have criticised the rioting rioters as far right anti—immigrant racists. well, let's have a look at these far right thugs . here it comes. here right thugs. here it comes. here can i just say how wonderful it is that the anti—immigrant, racist community is now so diverse that is a real sign of progress . the irish government progress. the irish government sprang into action to toughen

hate crime laws, to clamp down on criticism of children being stabbed. the message from the establishment is that being opposed to children being stabbed is far right. i'm not sure that this is going to put people off being far right. the department store target came under fire for sexual izing christmas. they have a gay santa with the pride flag. well, we don't know if that santa is gay. he might just be waving the flag. there's also this disabled black santa. i'm not quite sure how he gets down the chimney. and there's a trans nutcracker maker. i mean, i suppose the great thing about a trans nutcracker is that can do nutcracker is that they can do their trans surgery. ouch. their own trans surgery. ouch. but why do christians get all the fun target ? where's the the fun target? where's the range of lgbtqi two plus plus ramadan ornaments? why are you discriminating against muslims? maybe next year you could make a gingerbread rooftop to throw the gay santas off. i don't know. anyway sexualising christmas i think you'll find cliff richard got there first it. take it away, cliff . look at those away, cliff. look at those moves. look at that jaunty leg

flick. yeah, i'm going to crowbar a cliff. richard reference into everything tonight . and that's been the tonight. and that's been the curse word . and . and i'm joined curse word. and. and i'm joined tonight by the journalist and broadcaster nick hodgson and the comedian diane spencer and the broadcaster and lawyer andrew eborn . and let's discuss the eborn. and let's discuss the riots in dublin and start by looking at a quote from irish shock prime minister leo varadkar. he said , these varadkar. he said, these criminals did not do what they did because they love ireland . did because they love ireland. they did not do what they did because they wanted to protect irish people. they did not do it out of any sense of patriotism. however warped they did so because they're filled with hate. they love violence , they hate. they love violence, they love chaos, and they love causing pain to others. nicky is varadkar right? are these protesters motivated by hate , protesters motivated by hate, motivated by something negative ? motivated by something negative? >> and i think that's probably

want not hate, right? i mean, i get the vibe that these are people that are discontent with the government that they have . the government that they have. they feel that maybe they're not having enough access to education, that, you know , education, that, you know, pnces education, that, you know, prices are too high. cost of living is drive moving them out of their homes and they're annoyed because they're just annoyed. and this has become the litmus paper their anger. litmus paper for their anger. you really think that if lemons were £0.10 cheaper in lidl, then these people wouldn't have rioted? these people wouldn't have flotyeah. these people wouldn't have riotyeah . you don't think it's. >> yeah. you don't think it's. you don't think it's about the immigration policy all? immigration policy at all? i mean, diane, we've seen the irish government, as you know, a lot of governments do across the west pretty much ignore people's wishes on immigration and just have a have radically be radical, radical, open borders policy. i mean, we've we've seen an gross migration of 1.2 million people entering the uk to the year june 2023, just in one year, 1.2 million people, but the equivalent in ireland with its population , they've had with its population, they've had 2 million people have at the

same , you know, equivalent size same, you know, equivalent size as the uk . i same, you know, equivalent size as the uk. i mean, do you think people are just they want to be listened to and maybe have more sensible immigration policies? >> i think that do want to >> i think that they do want to be to. they want to be listened to. they do want to have sensible immigration have more sensible immigration policies. when the looting policies. and when the looting starts, do new starts, they do want new trainers. not forget trainers. and we must not forget that the season be jolly that tis the season to be jolly and going shopping. and so when that tis the season to be jolly and doing shopping. and so when that tis the season to be jolly and do haveropping. and so when that tis the season to be jolly and do have the ing. and so when that tis the season to be jolly and do have the opportunity when that tis the season to be jolly and do have the opportunity to en you do have the opportunity to potentially window of potentially smash the window of jd sports and get christmas presents for the entire family, you you sort of leap on you know, you do sort of leap on that. but what was interesting was i read an article where somebody who was so high up somebody who was ever so high up in parliament, i'm in the irish parliament, i'm terribly i can't remember terribly sorry, i can't remember the that this the reference said that this feeling for feeling had been building for months. so you know, months. yeah. so you know, i mean, you can look at that two ways. you can say, okay, so there is a sentiment there where as soon as this happened, people went, oh my god, i can't believe somebody attacked. let's underline a school with underline this a school with little children who are currently in hospital. so. so we must not forget what has triggered this . yeah, i mean, triggered this. yeah, i mean, that's enough to send anybody .

that's enough to send anybody. >> and it comes. >> and it comes. >> it comes in the fury, it comes in the back of murders of gay men in sligo that were targeted by by an islamist , you targeted by by an islamist, you know, because. >> because they're gay. so we're seeing, know, these seeing, you know, these ideologically driven knife attacks across europe. attacks across across europe. and one thing that worries me, andrew, and you're as a lawyer, you'll be able some you'll be able to give some insight into is that leo insight into this, is that leo varadkar, irish irish varadkar, the irish irish taoiseach or prime minister, he came out and he said, we're going to rush through hate crime laws. then sounded like laws. and then he sounded like he was going to apply it retroactive to the cctv footage , retroactive to the cctv footage, which is i mean, that's unconstitutional. that's against some of the existing laws are good enough. >> and what tends to happen, i really dug into this story, try and it, because first and get it, because the first casualty war is the casualty in any war is the truth. and looking at this sort of stuff, what's happened is they've by they've been radicalised by social what's happened social media as what's happened and look this and and they look at this and actually started actually the reality it started off started that it off the rumour started that it was an illegal immigrant who basically went around shooting these children in basically went around shooting thes�*terrible children in basically went around shooting thes�*terrible situation.'en in basically went around shooting thes�*terrible situation. the1 that terrible situation. the reality, appears to been reality, it appears to have been an citizen who's been an

an irish citizen who's been an irish citizen for 20 years now. the media not yet reporting that. and so we look at that. and so we need to look at that. and so we need to look at that. totally what my new that. but totally what my new best friend because she makes wonderful fudge what it's true that we were having fudge poured all day it's glorious what i what i love about the point is if the real objection is about the shooting and all that sort of stuff, you don't go looting, do you? that's not your first point of call. absolutely >> you protest in a civilised manner. you we are against manner. you say we are against what just or we've got what just happened or we've got a with immigration. you what just happened or we've got a just with immigration. you what just happened or we've got a just giver immigration. you what just happened or we've got a just give nicking'ation. you what just happened or we've got a just give nicking stuff. you don't just give nicking stuff. you just nicking you don't just get nicking stuff. >> nicky. >> nicky. >> come on. june. june. black lives you think lives matter. riots you think nobody some new nobody was nicking some new nike's but didn't nike's there, but it didn't start them nicking start out with them nicking stuff, did it? >> i think was. this was. >> i think this was. this was. this was black lives matter. >> just wanton >> there was just wanton destruction on a large scale. >> it didn't it didn't start out as somebody being murdered. and therefore, going go therefore, we're going to go next therefore, we're going to go nex neither did this. there have >> neither did this. there have been protests for weeks, for months but outside. outside. but this was directly and >> but this was directly and this is this is the excuse that's being used for people to

say, i don't like say, i'm annoyed. i don't like how we're living. don't like how we're living. i don't like this government. something else that's about that's really important about this was only this story and it was only reported one paper, that reported in one paper, is that the attacked the the man who attacked the children has children is apparently he he has psychosis . right. that's psychosis. right. and that's that's thought that that's the line of thought that the pursuing . and the police are pursuing. and that's really important because have you been psychotic? that's really important because hhave ou been psychotic? that's really important because hhave actually. 3sychotic? that's really important because hhave actually. i've1otic? that's really important because hhave actually. i've had? that's really important because hhave actually. i've had a i have actually. i've had a psychotic breakdown. writing psychotic breakdown. i'm writing about you you don't need about it. you you don't need knives psychotic. just knives to be psychotic. you just need to be absolutely bonkers. >> if don't have. >> for if you don't have. >> for if you don't have. >> probably bit safer. >> yeah, probably a bit safer. but trying is, but what i'm trying to say is, if you are psychotic, you will plan to do things that make no logical sense to anybody else but to in crazed but to you. in your crazed chemical state. because it's not induced it's your induced by chemicals, it's your brain basically. yeah. brain on fire, basically. yeah. you would something you would do something totally insane i think insane like this. so i think it's that establish it's important that we establish has actually got has the attacker actually got really serious mental health thing or are they just thing going on or are they just kind vindictive have they kind of vindictive or have they been online? been radicalised online? >> think there's two >> well, i think there's two things radicalised online >> well, i think there's two th the radicalised online >> well, i think there's two th the backlash calised online >> well, i think there's two th the backlash to ised online >> well, i think there's two th the backlash to what'sline is the backlash to what's happened, what they're saying and everybody's saying who's radicalised online, stabber radicalised online, the stabber or the by the sounds of it, but also the individual concern.

they it's not part of an they do say it's not part of an organised terrorist or anything. exactly. it's individual. and exactly. it's an individual. and nicky brilliant point nicky makes a brilliant point because no joking because mental illness no joking aside, are people with aside, there are people with serious . we need look serious issues. we need to look at that of stuff. but the at that sort of stuff. but the reaction reaction is reaction and the reaction is what they're about, the what they're talking about, the radicalisation charleton the radicalisation charleton so the reaction happened reaction to what happened is terrible now the terrible thing. what's now the focus the people focus is all about the people who rioting or the person who are rioting or the person who are rioting or the person who did it as opposed to the real victims who are what is it? it's like a five year old girl is in a critical condition. hospital in hospital female carer isn't in her in a serious her 30s, is in a serious condition, and the girl six, remains in hospital. but the boy five has just been discharged. the be on the the focus should be on the victims and let's at that. victims and let's look at that. >> the rioters should think >> but the rioters should think about that, shouldn't they? the rioters shouldn't go out rioting, focus on rioting, putting the focus on them report innocent rioting, putting the focus on them in report innocent rioting, putting the focus on them in hospital)ort innocent rioting, putting the focus on them in hospital hasn't|ocent people in hospital hasn't reported the establishment people in hospital hasn't repcbarely the establishment people in hospital hasn't repc barely mentionedlishment people in hospital hasn't repc barely mentioned the nent people in hospital hasn't repc barely mentioned the actual victims. >> they're almost tiptoeing around the fact isn't that more about giving people of about giving people a bit of peace and quiet when they're in hospital? >> yeah, but i heard that this happened i looked it up on happened and i looked it up on first of all, i went to the bbc

website and that was a mistake because couldn't work out why because i couldn't work out why there riots. there were riots. >> didn't actually >> yeah, it didn't actually outline i thought, okay, outline it and i thought, okay, so i'm looking at this article thinking, oh my gosh , these thinking, oh my gosh, these people been attacked and people have been attacked and there riots. couldn't there are riots. and i couldn't there are riots. and i couldn't there was no connection within there was no connection within the article . so that is the article. so that is something that like what the trusted verify media managed to omit. but it's a great example of what you have to do now because we're drowning in a sea of information, most of which is false. >> so you have to get your news from a number different soufces. >> sources. >> gb news gb news obviously from leo's . so here tonight from leo's. so here tonight we'll give you the fact it's got to be. >> i just think the establishment would have been shouting about it a lot more if it been a wing person it had been a right wing person who'd committed the who'd who'd committed the attack. still to come on attack. anyway, still to come on the saturday show down, the saturday night show down, we'll the new marvel's we'll ask why the new marvel's movie in movie flopped and we'll get in the christmas by meeting the christmas spirit by meeting a life elf. but next in a real life elf. but next in cursed the blessed, we'll discuss some of the week's heroes including heroes and villains, including nigel his buttocks , nigel farage and his buttocks, since he started appearing on

reasons this really reasons why this film really failed the failed because number one, the marvel franchise been marvel franchise size has been getting worse worse and getting worse and worse and worse are literally worse because they are literally just out much just churning out so much content and they're racing through it. and the special effects have got worse. >> oh, really? >> oh, really? >> have. if you >> they really have. if you watch she—hulk , it looks like watch she—hulk, it looks like she's covered green she's just covered in green cotton wool. just cotton wool. it's just absolutely bizarre. doesn't absolutely bizarre. it doesn't it look good. yeah. so it doesn't look good. yeah. so for a start, the quality's going and they're churning them out so much writing much that the story writing seems left on the floor. seems to be left on the floor. number two is that there's this thing called the mcu universe where because they have made a decision to make 50% of superheroes, women, which i understand, and i get because a truck drivers women. yeah, but wait a minute. right. truck drivers women. yeah, but wait a minute . right. the wait a minute. right. the problem is they're not writing likeable superheroes . they're likeable superheroes. they're sort of marvel . captain marvel sort of marvel. captain marvel herself is deeply unlikeable because she has no flaws whatsoever . get behind because she has no flaws whatsoever. get behind this woman. but that's feminism, isn't it? >> no , it isn't. >> no, it isn't. >> no, it isn't.

>> no , it's the opposite. >> no, it's the opposite. >> no, it's the opposite. >> you go, girl. no no, no, no, no. >> feminism is not that. feminism is like, everything is crap and i'm crap. and that's fine. yeah. yes, yes. yeah. but we're still going to we're we're still going to do we're still going do stuff. exactly. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> that's what feminine is. >> that's what feminine is. >> no, no. >> no, no. >> we you've been waiting >> we know you've been waiting for definition. for that definition. >> issue is the >> but another issue is that the film itself, if it combines captain marvel, ms marvel and a character from one division. and it's just like, i character from one division. and it'sjust like, i don't i can't it's just like, i don't i can't i haven't got the time. >> so there's no to watch all those strands and then put it together, all these different strands. >> so the characters themselves haven't been built up. so nobody really cares about the characters. you've got characters. yeah. so you've got massive the film massive flaws in the film itself. the film , the baddie. itself. the film, the baddie. you know how like we all loved alan rickman? i know it's a bit of a throwback, but alan rickman whenever he's been a baddie, he has sensational, all has been sensational, all because he the baddie because he was the baddie sheriff nottingham. was because he was the baddie she baddieiottingham. was because he was the baddie she baddie intingham. was because he was the baddie she baddie intingihard, was because he was the baddie she baddie intingihard, justas the baddie in die hard, just brilliant. this baddie brilliant. but this baddie completely unforgettable. no personality, nobody personality, really. nobody really knows what she's doing . really knows what she's doing. and brie larson herself . yeah,

and brie larson herself. yeah, she's like the main character, captain marvel, who has who can just do everything anyway, which is so dull, so boring . is so dull, so boring. >> if you meet that woman, you don't want to know her, do you know? >> you'd be like, oh, no. >> you'd be like, oh, no. >> she comes. >> she comes. >> miss perfect marvel studios are trying to make super like are trying to make it super like include lviv for women, but they're actually alienating women by making an unlikely character. >> andrew, are you going to go and see this? i've seen it. >> you've seen it. i will only comment on things. andrew does his see everything? his research see everything? i see everything . and the whole see everything. and the whole way that marvel has evolved is basically in the same way as barbie. we'll talk that in barbie. we'll talk about that in a and mattel, because it's a bit. and mattel, because it's interesting. happens is interesting. what happens is, is they're appeal to all interesting. what happens is, is they'iof appeal to all interesting. what happens is, is they'iof people. appeal to all interesting. what happens is, is they'iof people. whatal to all interesting. what happens is, is they'iof people. what they all sorts of people. what they should do is basically they want to be inspirational to the little girls who haven't seen superheroes. little girls who haven't seen superhetoes. hulks. they're not to want to be hulks. they're not going to want to be superman. they could be superwoman and so going to want to be superman. th
