2:05 am
possible iran, russia nuclear deal and finally the daily star sunday has tv lee. my bog was haunted by a ghost and those were front pages . okay, let's were front pages. okay, let's christmas and now it is. and the word rushed can b okay,nn christmas and now it is. and the word rushed can bokay, let's were front pages. okay, let's have a look at the front pages, have a look at the front pages, starting with the mail on starting with the mail on sunday, please. leo. sunday, please. leo. >> so this is the one about the >> so this is the one about the assisted dying bill. is a assisted dying bill. is a bombshell. actually, a bombshell bombshell. actually, a bombshell would probably assist you with would probably assist you with dying, but it's set to be rushed dying, but it's set to be rushed into law by keir starmer's into law by keir starmer's labour within weeks. so a deeply labour within weeks. so a deeply divisive vote to legalise divisive vote to legalise assisted dying could be held assisted dying could be held within weeks after sir keir within weeks after sir keir starmer backed plans to fast starmer backed plans to fast track it through the commons. track it through the commons. the mail on sunday understands. the mail on sunday understands. it's not, you know, seen the it's not, you know, seen the evidence, but it's been told. so evidence, but it's been told. so they're going to have a vote they're going to have a vote before christmas and this could before christmas and this could before christmas and this could be one of the biggest social before christmas and this could be one of the biggest social changes in the uk since the changes in the uk since the since the abortion act in 1967. since the abortion act in 1967. this is sort of like abortion, this is sort of like abortion, but for old people , the you but for old people , the you
2:06 am
but for old people, the you know, you didn't want that baby. but for old people, the you know, you didn't want that baby. well, do you want this granddad? well, do you want this granddad? so this would be a law to allow so this would be a law to allow terminally ill adults with a terminally ill adults with a life expectancy of less than six life expectancy of less than six months to end their lives with months to end their lives with medical help, but that's how it medical help, but that's how it starts. within about two weeks, starts. within about two weeks, it will be, you know , 22 year it will be, you know , 22 year it will be, you know, 22 year olds being killed with shovels it will be, you know, 22 year olds being killed with shovels by the nhs is mental. this is what happened in canada, stupid. >> we can't afford shovels. i by his mail. must admit, i didn't know about the six month. is that new? that's passed me by until now. the six months. >> that sounds like a, you know, something they're saying to make it palatable to say it does, doesn't it? >> because if you only get six months, that's a different that's a different thing, isn't it? to the idea of somebody becoming a burden and ending their life for that reason. but itend their life for that reason. but i tend to agree with leo. it's a slippery slope, isn't it, steve? >> all of these all of these details aren't there yet. anyway, this is the thing that's being rushed through is a debate on it and a vote on it. so actually the details would be to be hammered out. the rushed through is simply like this was promised before the election that labour were going to give us or give mps a vote on this. it wasn't expected to be before christmas and now it is. and the
2:07 am
word rushed can be thrown sent want their spouse to be sent to prison for murder. that's different to what you end up talking about. if you're talking about canada, surely it's not beyond the wit of to man put restrictions in, to put actually the details on this, to make it the details on this, to make it the appropriate bill. now, just as canada didn't manage it. looking good, is it? >> canada's a reasonable country run by adults. you'd think not what you were saying before. if they can't put these restrictions in, i mean. keir r , his entire regime so starmer, his entire regime so far has just been like i'm watching the ceiling cave in and you're sitting here saying, it's fine, everything's on fire. it's absolutely insane. like in canada, there was there was a 20, i think a 21 year old. all he had was he had diabetes and depression and, his mother discovered that he'd made himself eligible for assisted
2:08 am
dying just by opening his mail. dying just by opening his mail. i mean, he also had a nosy i mean, he also had a nosy mother, but just by opening mother, but just by opening letters that were addressed to letters that were addressed to him , found out that he was going him , found out that he was going him, found out that he was going to be killed. and it's like if him, found out that he was going to be killed. and it's like if we've gone if canada's gone in we've gone if canada's gone in just a few years from, you know , just a few years from, you know , just a few years from, you know, oh, six months to live to, like, just a few years from, you know, oh, six months to live to, like, we're killing completely viable we're killing completely viable 21 year olds. it's, you know, 21 year olds. it's, you of. it's insanity and we shouldn't have it. >> i thought we were kind of testing it out in the isle of man as well, because they had a vote about this. and i thought, all right, let's not just no one rocked the boat yet. let's just see how it works out over there. and if it's all cool, let's copy what they do. if it doesn't go all cool, it's a tuc. >> okay, what's on the cover of the sunday telegraph? >> steve labour backs away from 2030 ban on new petrol cars by letting hybrids still be available to 2035. all of these numbers are still quite close. i know technology romps on moore's law and all that stuff, but , know technology romps on moore's law and all that stuff, but, as a hybrid owner, i state my bias here. we shouldn't be angry about hybrids . it's the one type about hybrids. it's the one type of car that seems to get grouped into this electric vehicle. here's what happened. here's my timeline, right? you're growing
2:10 am
into my body in some sort of. >> if you say my heating's on too low. no, but honestly, it's wasteful, isn't it? you put the brakes on, you just lose that extra energy to heat into the environment. >> yeah, because i'm a boiler. >> yeah, because i'm a boiler. >> but yeah, that's what he likes about it. >> he likes entropy. >> he likes entropy. >> government. >> government. >> the government shouldn't mess with the free market. it was obviously a ridiculous target. i know you know , rishi sunak know you know, rishi sunak probably came up with this target because he was useless as well. but this is the government shouldn't shouldn't and shouldn't shouldn't and shouldn't put tariffs on, you know , dealerships selling, know, dealerships selling, selling petrol cars and stuff because this will actually hurt the environment because they're putting these rules in. it means that car companies won't invest in better and more efficient petrol engines, because they'll assume that we're not going to we're not going to be able to use them. so in five years time when we have to use these petrol engines anyway, they're going to be less efficient. so that's on keir starmer. >> and you don't have to in five years time. you can still drive your own car. it's only which car should be able to buy from you. >> yeah but they'll tax it. they'll make it. they'll tax it so much and you'll be killed.
2:11 am
you'll be assisted dying when you're driving it. and also they'll have to pay per mile. >> so dramatic. okay. let's have a quick look at the observer. >> so the observer has alarm grows over possible iran russia nuclear deal. so biden and starmer fear a secret arms link up like not linking their arms. like they're like it's new year's eve. this is basically russia and has been sent a whole bunch of ballistic missiles from iran. and they think that part of the payment for that could be access to russia's nuclear technology. and obviously they've got lots of nuclear weapons, they've got lots of uranium. iran is in the process of trying to enrich enough uranium to make a nuclear bomb. but to be honest, iran needs nuclear weapons . there's but to be honest, iran needs nuclear weapons. there's a but to be honest, iran needs nuclear weapons . there's a lot nuclear weapons. there's a lot of people trying to kill trying to blow up iran . and also to blow up iran. and also islamic terrorists are rubbish. now, every time i see them, it's always like a bread knife at some sort of, you know, diversity festival in germany. or they're driving, they're on westminster bridge, they're driving a kia picanto into pedestrians. >> it's like, yeah, like a hybrid. >> that's why, because they
2:12 am
don't have the explosive power of the petrol engine . so they of the petrol engine. so they need a petrol engine. they need i mean i think the next generation of islamic terrorists and i think, you know, keir starmer would agree with me because islamophobia is a crime. so we need to make sure that these, you know, these people are properly looked after. >> i've been talking about this issue for a while about all the countries grouping up. i call them the crank nations. right. china sounds problematic, isn't? of course it does. right. but and then, iran and north korea, it was just me going on about it until two days ago. someone tweeted me they said it on sky news. they called them the crank nafions.| news. they called them the crank nations. i won, i invented a term wikipedia. please say that it was trend setter stephen allen. >> okay, finally, let's have a quick look at the daily star, please. >> steve. well, if we must tv lee, my bog was haunted by a ghost. probably wasn't . it's ghost. probably wasn't. it's probably all i've got on that. really? he reckons he had a haunted toilet. just because the thing wouldn't flush away doesn't mean it was a ghost. just because it keeps coming back. >> a ghost? no, a ghost is. when
2:13 am
it just disappears, you turn around and it's not there, and it's like, where did it go? okay, a ghost have you never done a ghost? >> never. >> never. >> cressida always leaves have evidence . evidence. >> that's just great, isn't it? i think i've told you my story about a frog living in the toilet before. no no, i stayed in a place in australia where there was a frog that lived in there was a frog that lived in the toilet. really? >> i thought this would be you in a boat. >> very weird. imagine it came up a pipe. no, my boat wasn't good enough for you. >> you still use the toilet on on the frog? >> no. oh. what did we do? i think we got the woman who ran the shop to get rid of it. anyway. weird things happen in toilets. i don't know where i'm going with that. okay that's the end. part of part one. coming up after the break, a labour adviser claims failure to study anti—racism in schools led to riots. robert jenrick set to clamp down on civil service jobs and wealthy brits feeling country could be hit with an exit tax
2:17 am
welcome back to headliners. i'm still here with leo kearse and stephen allen and i'm chris whitten. you probably like to know that as well. we're going to begin this section with the sunday telegraph. and leo bridget phillipson has hired a panel of experts who've got some bright ideas about social cohesion . cohesion. >> they've got some terrible ideas about social cohesion. so a labour adviser claims that the failure to study anti—racism in schools fuelled the summer riots. so this is funmilola stewart, a diversity and inclusion specialist. how can you specialise in something so nonsensical? that's like being a specialist in like, i don't know , specialist in like, i don't know, jelly, she said last month. actually, jelly, you could specialise in. she said last month that beliefs in the anti—racist, racist, anti—racism in schools was inappropriate had contributed to the widespread unrest. so apparently people weren't angry that children had been stabbed to death . they were been stabbed to death. they were just they hadn't had enough
2:18 am
indoctrination in schools. and that's what, you know, if we just indoctrinated people more to believe that diversity is strength , then when diversity strength, then when diversity isn't a strength and diversity kills children, we'll be fine with it. that seems to be the message here. so she she went on to say, it comes from people questioning why we make everything about race instead of questioning people's prejudice. again, a lot of the, you know, when people get angry at children being killed is not because they're prejudiced, it's because they're prejudiced, it's because children being killed is a bad thing. even i can see that. like, i don't know why labour can't. but she says it comes from a broken education system which fails to protect racially minoritized staff and students while simultaneously deeming anti—racist education inappropriate. i think this is the opposite of the truth. it's a fear of looking racist means that kids are being accused of racism when they're not being racist, when they're just like there's a child who was asked to describe their friend's skin colour, and the child said chocolate, and was then accused of racism. and it was recorded as a racist incident. when
2:19 am
they'd just been asked to describe their friend's skin colour. and they did exactly that. this focus on racism causes social friction, so nafive causes social friction, so native brits are sort of put at the bottom of the pile and everything they say is scrutinised and questioned as racist, basically we had, you know, diversity killed children and maybe we need to look at anti—white racism. and this shows the direction that labour are moving in. instead of looking, instead of trying to be a sort of, equality, a martin luther king, you know , judging luther king, you know, judging people based on the content of their character type approach to, to society. they're instead still continuing with this insane drive to like, put people into categories based on their skin colour and other demographics, and judging people based on that which is, you know, which is itself incredibly racist. >> she's got an axe to grind, hasn't she? she's ideological. that's what she does for a living. i mean, turkeys don't vote for christmas and diversity. people probably want more diversity stuff talked about. but steve, i really like this doctor alex cuthbert, who's
2:20 am
the director of don't divide us, talks about stigmatising people who've got legitimate concerns. there might be. i'm sure there were a handful of far right rioters. of course there were. there were people being violent and all of that. but what's typically always absent in these stories is the legitimate concerns. nobody's hearing what people are actually upset about . people are actually upset about. >> oh, look, in in the large set of people who you could have said attended a protest or a riot, they would include the subset of far right people and the subset of people with genuine concerns. and it depends on which argument you wish to try and win. you ignore that one of them was there. that's what newspapers and everyone debating this has been doing. it's absolutely pointless, isn't it? there are some logical flaws in what she's saying as well. i mean, firstly, i do like you point out that quote where she says instead of asking, why do you make everything about race? we should like, look at that. you've avoided the question. look at that. it's like neo in the matrix, nowhere near you. but she says there wasn't enough anti—racism taught in schools . anti—racism taught in schools. you know, in schools they teach maths. and have you ever seen someone do a percentage? they
2:21 am
nearly have a nosebleed. they go, oh, i don't know how to do it. you know, that stuff got taught and it's not impacted adults. plus also i saw some of the footage of these protests, riots. there weren't that many recently educated people . so how recently educated people. so how long will it take for your theory to pipe through? you know, you could teach it now, and you've got to wait until in the 50s to stop writing that. none of this makes sense. i think you hit the nail on the head. she might be protecting her own job. >> she might be okay. shocking news in the observer. now, steve reports of home office enforcement officers using force. >> yeah . inhumane treatment of >> yeah. inhumane treatment of migrants rounded up in uk's failed rwanda plan. revealed that there's a slither of an interesting story here. claims that operation vector firstly calling it vector, calling it operation a word that means things that spread disease like that was a katie hopkins level. getting you a newspaper column removed way of doing it. but somehow they got away with it. but the claim that it might have been futile. the government knew that they were never going to be any flights. so why round up for people for the no flights that are going to happen? it was
2:22 am
political theatre. that could be great. let's talk about that. but instead the article goes on, this inhumane conditions. here's some of the things cited. one man being handcuffed was resisting being handcuffed. so they put him in a wrist lock till he was handcuffed. how else do you see that playing out if you take the premise that he should be handcuffed, that's the way it goes. there were four, four recorded instances of migrants. this is going to be the harshest thing i've ever said. i'm going to say it out loud. four recorded instances of migrants attempting to harm themselves after being apprehended. who's at fault? the clue is in self harm, isn't it? do you know what i mean? wow. no, because in this you're changing. >> steve, if you take the presumption, of course we radicalised, you know. >> but i just think in logic as radicalise me. if you take the presumption that if you say the operation needed to be done, then this is how it plays out. the big question is, should it have been done in the first place? it's a group called liberty investigates. they've also got a problem with the current government speeding up deportation, saying it will lead to distress. but again, if someone is legally to be deported, how do you play it out better? let's take ages over it.
2:23 am
is that less distressful? >> yeah. yeah, absolutely. and it's a shame they haven't let the facts speak for themselves because like you said, they've got a good point, haven't they. it does kind of smack of theatrics on the part of the then government. yeah, absolutely. >> and i mean it's not just the government knew it wasn't it wasn't going to happen. but they're stymied at every every step by the woke blob. and they say they say here what concerns us is the likelihood rishi sunak knew full well the rwanda scheme was futile. i mean , it might was futile. i mean, it might have been futile in this country, but other countries are copying the system. in sweden they've got, you know , they've got, you know, remigration, germany has closed its borders. or is trying to close its borders. i think there'll be no change until we elect a party with the will to actually deal with this. whether that will be the tories under a different leader or it will be reform. but you know, everything in this just it just shows like people are getting compensation for being arrested, you know, rightfully arrested and, you know, put up for, for deportation . deportation. >> but i don't want to say, rishi, i think they're saying he knew that the scheme wasn't going to work, not that it could
2:24 am
never work in the future, but it wasn't going to work because he wasn't going to work because he was about to call an election. and definitely he knew he was about to call an election because all of his mates had bet on it. >> yeah, but maybe he was trying to look tough so that he might be more likely to win the election. that would be the defence, wouldn't it? >> well, that's not the defence. >> well, that's not the defence. >> how did that work out for him? yeah. okay. moving on to the sunday telegraph. another day, another new tax from laboun day, another new tax from labour. leo >> so how labour could impose an exit tax on wealthy britons fleeing the country. so you're not even going to be able to leave britain to avoid the higher taxes. it's like they're going to get you. it's like, you know, an archer's bow can hit you in a straight start, calling it the jodi arias tax. >> you know, the woman that murdered her boyfriend when he tried to leave? really? >> oh, yeah . yeah. of course. >> oh, yeah. yeah. of course. yeah. this is i mean, this is horrific . the government horrific. the government generally does behave like the worst possible partner, you know what i mean? like, you get if you even if you speak out against the government, you get locked up. now but yeah. rachel reeves has been urged to hit those relocating overseas with a capital gains tax charge. so under current rules, investors pay under current rules, investors pay no capital gains tax on uk
2:25 am
shares if they leave britain for more than five years. but but considering a lot of people, a lot of rich people in particular are looking at leaving the uk, as many as 9500 millionaires could leave this year. that's more than double the 4200 who left last year, to according the henley private wealth migration report . report. >> isn't it that suddenly twice as many are going, oh, we've had enough of this. >> people don't want to, people don't want to pay more tax. and i think also like the way things are going now we've got a two tier system. so, you know, if you're if you're rich, you're not using the nhs, you're paying for private healthcare , you're for private healthcare, you're paying for private healthcare, you're paying for private schools, you'll have private police pretty soon because the police won't do anything unless you've been misgendered. so there's no incentive and there's no there's no national unity because, you know, we're sort of bringing people into the country and it's becoming this diverse. economic platform that's not we're not we're not britain anymore. there's no there's no sort of we're not rooted in tradition, and we don't feel a fraternity
2:26 am
amongst ourselves because you know, other people are from radically different cultures . so radically different cultures. so why, why would anybody stay here and pay tons of tax when they could go to dubai, apart from this is not going to happen. >> so you said rachel reeves has been urged by whom? >> it's already happened in australia, canada and us. >> the story here is how labour could bring in this exit tax. he's been urged by the resolution foundation. this story is basically a left wing think tank as thought of left wing things to say to a left wing things to say to a left wing government as if it starts to oh look. but no one was doing this when people were saying, oh, liz truss, maybe you should do it. yeah, right wing think tanks come up with right wing things for right wing governments. but there's always been this is a bad idea. >> what are the survey of 73 non—doms who statistical importance. >> this is where half the stuff's quoted from . stuff's quoted from. >> from the 7373 book the non—doms. >> and they're actively considering leaving. you're a non—dom. of course. you must be thinking about leaving all the time because you're not domicile. >> i know people in my in my social group, like the rich
2:27 am
people, are leaving. even the not rich people who can get out are getting out. because it's not just about money, it's about the authoritarian strictures on freedom of speech and just what you what you can do and how you can live. >> that would be why i would leave, not because of my millions of pounds i don't have. okay. staying with the sunday telegraph, steve robert jenrick is buzzing off serotonin like one of jordan peterson's lobsters, isn't he ? lobsters, isn't he? >> yeah. jenrick. we need to slash more than 100,000 civil service jobs to achieve a small state that works. so he's the bookies favourite. he could end up being in charge of the tories dunng up being in charge of the tories during a period when they're really far away from an election and can't really do much to have and can't really do much to have a lot of people. oh well, i mean, he's really fighting for this job as well. mean, he's really fighting for thisjob as well. he's mean, he's really fighting for this job as well. he's barely getting any sleep, he's lost some weight to get match fit again for the gig of leader of the opposition at the lowest number of people they've had for ages. but he wants to get the civil service to down the size of 2015, i think. why pick that as the year if you want to go retro, pick a year? that was a thatcher year. have you ever met the people who are going to be voting for you? how about the
2:28 am
17th century? go old school. >> i want 60 people running the country. >> yeah, but when there were barely anyone living here. yeah, he picked 2015 because it was just before brexit. that's right, but he's been basically this whole thing is about how he's, he's campaigning hard. it's not until november. hopefully he won't burn out too much on this. and jenrick said he's basically attacked liz truss. so i quite like this whole bit. because truss set back low tax economic growth agendain back low tax economic growth agenda in this country for a decade. basically the idea was right, but everyone likes the idea of growth. no one's really going like, oh, talk to me about shrinking again. what was that one?i shrinking again. what was that one? i hope he doesn't do the truss phrase though, because she one doesn't do the truss dance. well, that's true, but she did. she'd say things like well, i won an election of the conservative membership and i have the mandate of 180,000 people that kind of stuff. as long as he doesn't really, he doesn't pretend he's got some sort of secret mandate to stay true to himself. >> liz truss was the hero we didn't even get to. we didn't even get to see. and robert jenrick, he's saying he's saying the right thing . keir starmer is the right thing. keir starmer is keeping on 66,000 civil servants
2:29 am
that were hired during lockdown. and we don't need them anymore because there's no lockdown anymore. i mean, i know he wants to bring it back, but it's vital for the economy that we fire most of the public sector. there's a very tight labour, a very tight labour market at the moment . so if we fire people in moment. so if we fire people in the public sector where they're doing nothing, doing nothing productive, then they'll go into the private sector and generate wealth, generate value, they'll have self—esteem, they'll they'll be doing something useful with their time. and we're told we need mass immigration. we need open borders because we don't have enough people for the jobs. the people are here. they're just sitting on their bums. at hanngey sitting on their bums. at haringey council . haringey council. >> you go, there you go. okay closing with the sad news that louis schaefer might not be able to come to work anymore , so i'm to come to work anymore, so i'm sure he could run in on his meat diet. no exercise is bad for you . diet. no exercise is bad for you. >> so pensioners are warned they could lose their bus pass in six weeks because they're very forgetful. no, this is labour. this is labour taking another
2:30 am
axe to a perk that pensioners state pensioners, some of them fought in the boer war and this is how we reward them. this is disgusting. so millions of state pensioners were left stunned after labour axed winter fuel payments for millions. 10 million exactly of the elderly. but the future now looks even bleaker for pensioners following a recent exchange in parliament, where conservative mp louie french pressed the prime minister to rule out scrapping concessionary travel fares and council tax discounts and keir starmer sidestepped, saying i'm not going to pre—empt the budget, so he's obviously going to do it . hence, from both the to do it. hence, from both the prime minister and chancellor, rachel reeves suggest more austerity measures may be on the on the horizon. but the good news for pensioners is you'll probably be stabbed to death before this happens by one of the people keir starmer has released from prison . released from prison. >> steve is making faces as if to say it'll never happen . no? to say it'll never happen. no? >> well, i'm saying this is not clearly a conclusion by deduction, he was asked, will you rule it out? he said, i'm not going to talk until the budget. therefore it must
2:31 am
happen, says the. have you ever seen. >> yes, minister steve, of course it's going to happen. it's not really winds me up though, because all the buses, they're already there. it's like we've got the infrastructure. what does it matter if somebody's getting on it at 11 am. to go to the library? yeah. don't take the bus passes. they know that's happening. >> like, you know, when the budget comes out and they get rid of bus passes. have that argument then. but until then you're just doing that thing. here's the format. right. right wing newspaper says labour might do a thing even though there's no evidence for it. there is evidence. no there's not, there is. there's a lack of evidence . is. there's a lack of evidence. he was asked a question and he didn't answer it. that is the deficit of evidence proving or disproving. i think we need to define evidence, don't we? >> we've all got different ideas. >> let me finish the point, though, because so many of the stories go like this and there's so much to attack. labour for. but what we do is right wing newspapers says labour might do something we go, oh, i wouldn't put it past them because they want everyone to be migrants and we don't touch the actual story or anything. let's, you know, there are so many reasons to genuinely attack them. this isn't one of them yet. >> it will be, though. it definitely will be. and also this is going to choke off. >> will you talk about it on
2:32 am
this show? no, actually i was wrong about that. or is it another one of these things where i only get to hint at the i don't know if i will, because i've never been wrong. >> oh my god, i would love to ask your wife about that. okay, that's the end of part two. coming up after the break, a uk council has banned all non—vegan food and drink from meetings. another way to avoid deportation is pretty violent and a vicar is sacked for something that actually, i could imagine leo
2:35 am
break. welcome back to headliners beginning this section with the sunday telegraph and the bbc's international editors complicated notions of truth . complicated notions of truth. >> steve jeremy bowen dismisses report that says bbc breached guidelines 1500 times over israel—hamas war. he's not the one who did bullseye . just so we one who did bullseye. just so we know. just so you know, i set out the story before you discussed it. >> oh, i'd love to get his opinion on the report. >> yeah, well, he said it was
2:36 am
super smashing. great. but jeremy bowen is less keen. he. look, the bbc's got issues when it comes to its reporting. its looking at its own issues. it kind of therefore admits it might have some bias issues in the way that certainly some sectors of it, some some of its networks have dealt with it. but it is also true to say that this report has flawed methodology because they used ai report has flawed methodology because they used al to look at 9 million words to try and work out when bias was happening, without realising the bbc guidelines is about due impartiality rather than we never say anything that might be perceived as biased, because all that's done then is counted up loads. in an article that criticises both sides. that would be fine under the bbc guidelines, but this says so . guidelines, but this says so. basically, is bias an issue? yes. does the 1500 number mean anything? not at all. it's an absolutely pointless. but they did. it was a bbc masterclass event reporting war impartially. hopefully they do a bbc masterclass on noticing your newsreader as a right wrong. and i think they should prioritise it that way. >> great idea, but there's an obvious bias in the bbc.
2:37 am
>> it's like you don't need a report. i just, you know, i think most people watch the bbc recognise that. it's like reading the guardian, you know, it's not nick dixon said his words were i'm better than i. >> he said they should have just come to him and also only breached guidelines 1500 times. >> i mean, come on, that's why pencils have erasers. >> brilliant. okay, so what about this ballon report, then? from 2004, this has triggered people, the national jewish jewish assembly for example, are demanding that this report gets released because we've never seen the content. this is another report that was done in 2004. looking into repeated complaints of bias. by the israeli government. and it hasn't been we haven't seen it. >> but are all these reports done by, you know, pro—israel groups? because, i mean , groups? because, i mean, everybody's got an axe to grind. >> the two i've heard of. yes i'm not a very big sample. yeah. >> i mean, i think the bbc is biased, but i also think that, you know, you can't entirely trust reports that are done by, you know, groups with an agenda. >> incredibly reasonable though.
2:38 am
leo kearse the sunday mirror now and office cakes have been banned from nottingham city council and soon no unauthorised laughing or smiling leo oh my god. >> so a uk council announces it is banning all non—vegan food and drink from meetings. so the animal rights organisation peta has praised nottingham city council after it announced that it will only serve plant based food and drink at internal meetings from the end of september. what this is going to mean is that everybody that is going to an internal meeting is going to an internal meeting is going to an internal meeting is going to invite somebody from outside the meeting. i'm not joking. when i worked at the council , i joking. when i worked at the council, i did this so we could get that authorised us to get like catering for the meeting. and we wanted i believe, nice sandwiches and really nice sandwiches, like, i mean, you wouldn't believe how the public sector live it's way better. it's way better than us struggling. but yeah the council staff, they need meat. they're already weak enough. have you seen them? have you seen them? they can barely push that pen around their petty little bureaucratic forms. and this is what happens when you give an
2:39 am
inch. you know, people said, okay, vegans, you're allowed to be vegan. we'll let you do that. we'll let you get married. and then all of a sudden we've all got to be vegan all the time. >> like the way they're claiming this is going to save the environment. i mean, oreos are vegan. it's like , let's talk vegan. it's like, let's talk about seasonal food and eating locally and all that good stuff. >> oh, but you can't save the environment as well because it's just the food they eat in some meetings. how much of an impact do you think this could have? i do you think this could have? i do like your right about now they've all gone vegan. it says nottingham council. city council was approached for a statement, didn't reply. has anyone checked on them? they couldn't reach the email. >> yeah. brilliant. >> yeah. brilliant. >> stuck a flight of stairs . >> stuck a flight of stairs. >> stuck a flight of stairs. >> diversity news in the sunday telegraph. now i think it's being discouraged. steve >> female barristers rebel against crackdown on unfashionable views amid trans tensions. remember when having unfashionable views was a man thing . oh that's amazing. it thing. oh that's amazing. it moves on under the proposals , moves on under the proposals, barristers would be pushed or punished. if they do not act in a way that advances equality, diversity or inclusion. and
2:40 am
that's that's even harder to define. what does advancing it mean? so are you allowed ten minutes off to just sit down and have a coffee? >> no. are you doing it now? are you doing it now? >> so you should be punished. but then, you know, how will this be if you define it vaguely, you could use it as a tool for anything. the legal feminist, a forum to discuss feminist, a forum to discuss feminist issues in the legal system. say, i think it's fair to say we're unimpressed. also, you kind of sound like you're probably unimpressed a lot, just in general. but the bsb, which regulates the profession, is consulting on plans say it could lead to fines or bans. the article points out, though other times when it's gone too far to bnng times when it's gone too far to bring up examples of how this this never ends. bring up examples of how this this never ends . well, there was this never ends. well, there was a barrister, allison bailey, lost a job criticising stonewall, then had to be paid 20 grand for unreasonable conduct . fran off, a 90 year old conduct. fran off, a 90 year old woman who was volunteering for an ms charity, was ditched when she said she didn't understand pronouns in email signatures. she's 90. does she understand emails ? like, surely there's one emails? like, surely there's one age when you're allowed to say
2:41 am
stuff that's a bit like, oh, it was a different time. it's in your 90s, isn't it? let them say stuff like that. >> absolutely. and i thought the law profession was always trying to retain female staff, and this was a problem. and they lose them because they go off and have children and other stuff like that. this isn't going to help, is it? yeah. >> and also the law is about getting past sort of what's polite and what social norms are and getting to the letter of the law and has a crime being committed. and we've seen we've seen a huge sort of tilt in recent years with trans rights. for example, we've seen the rape crisis centre in edinburgh , the crisis centre in edinburgh, the previously lauded trans activist who ran that rape crisis centre has now been forced to step down and jk rowling's bearers place that she set up to provide a women only a female only safe space. people are being directed there instead. and we've seen there instead. and we've seen the cass review as well . and so the cass review as well. and so much of this stuff that's, you know, they say it needs to advance equality, diversity and inclusion. what does that even mean? those are words that just their sort of hide. they hide it
2:42 am
never means diversity of opinion. >> it always. >> it always. >> yeah. and it always means you know they say you know they pretend they're anti—racist. what they mean is they're explicitly racist. and they judge everyone based on the colour of their skin, and they're explicitly sexist. >> there you go. sticking with the sunday telegraph and a story about a vicar who publicly challenged feminism, how did that work out for him? leo so a free speech storm embroils church after vicar sacked over anti—woke youtube channel. >> so this is the free church of england. i'm not sure that's not the same as the church of england. this is a breakaway anglican denomination. it's dismissed. the reverend brett murphy last month after ruling that the nature and tone of videos that he posted online had brought the church into disrepute. so they took issue with the vicar using the term witch to refer to female priests, which, to be fair, to be fair , i mean, if you're be fair, i mean, if you're a religious person, you really believe in this stuff. you know, you believe there's god, there's spirits and all this stuff. so witches genuinely exist and can ride broomsticks and all that
2:43 am
kind of stuff. so, you know, if he's if he's saying that like, should we be dunking these women, i don't know, i don't want to give people ideas. but he said he was being tongue in cheek and sarcastic. obviously nobody's allowed to make any jokes anymore . that's banned. he jokes anymore. that's banned. he says. he's got a right to free speech, but. but no, he's been he's been kicked out of this church. >> well, he has got a right to free speech, but he's representing somebody, isn't he? and i can i know that a lot of people would say he's representing the views of the organisation. you know, you can put saucy videos on your social media, but not if you run a day—care free church. >> it's a free church. >> it's a free church. >> it's a free church. >> i mean, yeah, it's got the right to free speech and they've got the right to fire whoever they want to fire, i suppose because it's the church. i mean, put it in context. he's got away quite likely in the old days. galileo comes up with an idea they ruin his life. so at least he was only fired. >> well, that could still happen. okay, that's the end of part three. coming up after the break, we will be looking at asda workers tortured by storehouse music. not house like the house. anyway and a woman is found with fur on her lips after
2:47 am
>> welcome back to the final section of headliners opening this section with direction from another religious influencer in the independent, leo. >> yeah, so pope francis, who's the head of the catholic church, strongly criticises both harris and trump in a rare political intervention. so he's criticised mr trump because of his policies towards migrants. trump wants, you know, restricted immigration, just people who benefit the country. and he's criticised miss harris, her stance on abortion because she wants to kill babies with shovels as soon as they're born. i mean, it's not quite as bad as that. i know trump said that, but he called it an assassination. yeah, yeah, he's called it an assassination word, though, isn't it? >> he's dropping that in every
2:48 am
conversation. >> yeah, he's saying, not welcoming migrants is a grave sin. i mean, what what's happened to religious organisations? remember the crusades? i'm pretty sure that was the that was the church behind that. and now they're like, oh, no, the crusades. let's not do crusades. no, let's welcome, let's welcome other people . let's completely, like people. let's completely, like wipe out any, any christianity in the world. and the stance on abortion. so, i mean, i know i know, donald trump has had some criticism for sort of, hyping up or overplaying, but there genuinely are democrat politicians who've, you know , politicians who've, you know, said we should have like full term abortions and stuff like that , or term abortions and stuff like that, or abortions where you can the baby can be born and left to sort of die of neglect. and it's absolutely horrific. i mean , i absolutely horrific. i mean, i think there's i think traditionally that pope francis would have a lot more to say about that, wouldn't you, steve? >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i mean, well, he plays it. he keeps his cards close to his chest. he's apparently in the whole thing. doesn't actually name either candidate. we worked out the two. it's not difficult
2:49 am
to solve that particular riddle, but he ends it with saying you need to work out, speak to your own conscience, and work out who the lesser of those two evils is. i mean, it's not an endorsement either way, is it ? endorsement either way, is it? it's a indictment. but he's not telling you which is the worse of those two evils. you get to work it out. what a fun quiz. >> fun, indeed. okay. an uncomfortable story in the mail on sunday. now, steve, albanian migrants trying to avoid being kicked out of the uk are told on tiktok. >> important fact to pull out their teeth to get them into an easier to escape hospital. so what you do is step one. you pull out your teeth, then you get transferred to a like a dental unit, and then you bite through the restraint. it i shouldn't have got rid of the teeth, but i mean, i'm shocked there's a way to get free dental care in this country. are you kidding me? aren't you? i should be on tiktok, but the best bit is it's done by someone who claimed to have escaped. there is no evidence of anyone escaping during the period this person was in this place. and there's no records of anyone escaping that way. experts say it won't work because they've actually still got it. so i say do it . absolutely. fill your do it. absolutely. fill your boot. not yet. the best thing
2:50 am
that will happen is the tooth fairy might come by. >> well, what won't happen is you won't get a quick emergency appointment afterwards to sort it out . it out. >> yeah, well, ironically, if they just stayed in britain, they'd lose their lose their teeth anyway. we're not. we're not a country known for its dental hygiene. >> that's that's true. it must be easier ways, though. aren't there other injuries? you could. i'm not suggesting you should, but this can't be an easy thing to do. >> britain's not that great. just what's wrong with albania? it's nice. my brother went there on holiday. he said it was amazing. he said it was like greece, but better because it was cheaper. >> brilliant . metro next. and >> brilliant. metro next. and someone has been caught eating . someone has been caught eating. it's a story about a cat. steve. >> er . police released gruesome >> er. police released gruesome footage of woman with fur on her lips after being caught eating a cat . trump was right. trump, cat. trump was right. trump, apart from it, wasn't in springfield. this woman was called alexis ferrell, who wasn't a haitian immigrant. but other than those two key facts, trump was right. she had fur on her mouth as well, which is not how you do it. i imagine you're meant to cook the cat. so the takeaway from this is she's not a good cook, fellas , i won't get interested. >> i wouldn't get a takeaway
2:51 am
from this. >> no, this is it can walk itself , rank on >> no, this is it can walk itself, rank on it. but authorities have released the body cam footage. police officers say that she they determined that she had smashed the cat's head with a foot and began to eat. the cat coming off ozempic is mean, i tell you. but in the video, the officers asked her to smile , to check out, you her to smile, to check out, you know, the bits of cat in there. she bares her teeth and shakes her head when she was asked, did you eat the cat but didn't speak? if anything looks like you've just eaten cat's a mouthful of cat, isn't it? yeah, but at no point in the video do the cops say, is this your time of the month? so i think he played it quite delicately. >> yeah. i mean, i think this is this partly corroborates what trump was saying. there was it's all come on like a woman. a woman is eating a cat in ohio. >> his story is about people or fact checkers. >> said, oh, she's oh, axel mcgann . cabana is actually the mcgann. cabana is actually the most british person who's ever been born, ever. >> they're getting cats and actually cooking them, not just being mad people trying to eat a
2:52 am
raw cat. no one was thinking they were eating raw cats. >> yeah, but she ate a cat. >> yeah, but she ate a cat. >> yeah, that's someone with mental problems. >> yes, but she ate a cat. but also there's a video shared by chris rufo , an american chris rufo, an american academic, showing what looked like skinned cats on a barbecue or being cooked, which is my point, right? >> so this still in no way proves trump's point. you said it also backs him up a bit. it doesn't not a whiff of it. >> the whole debate has become about whether cats are being eaten or not. when the real issue is 20,000 haitian immigrants have just been dumped on this small town in ohio of 60,000 people. so that's going to have a huge number of, you know , social problems that know, social problems that aren't necessarily related to cats being eaten. >> exactly. that point is so true that it doesn't need evidence of cat eating to be brought into it. if for some reason, some. there's two types of trump derangement syndrome, one is the people who support him and have to. everything he says needs to be true. no, he's wrong about this, but the point about the migration is true. she literally ate a cat and she's not a migrant. >> yeah, but she you know,
2:53 am
people have eaten cats once. >> that's all. >> that's all. >> that's all. >> that proves she's going to have a fantastic book tour, isn't she? when we actually find out who she is and what's what drove her to this. >> when she burps a little bell goes, ding, ding. oh, really sad. >> it's just hideous, isn't it? i mean, this story is it's so significant because we're brits and everyone in britain is obsessed with pets. this story is i don't know how it's going down in america . not much down in america. not much better. but really, i mean, in this country, you don't want to eat a pet. >> i wonder if you eat meat raw in france. they'd love this. >> well, it's very lewis, isn't it? it's very lewis schaffer. >> i wonder if it might just swing a few percent of the childless cat ladies that jd vance talks about. if they just, you know, they feel that they're swing them which way they might defend the cats more here. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> well they may think you know cats if cats are being eaten, i'm going to vote for the guy who's going to stop the cats being eaten. >> brilliant, so the show is nearly over. let's have another quick look at sunday's front pages. the sunday telegraph leads with labour backs away from 2030 ban on new petrol cars. the sunday times has a go. it alone and let ukraine fire
2:54 am
missiles. pm told the sunday express has pensioners £1,000 worse off under labour and the mail on sunday has assisted dying bill set to be rushed into law. the observer has alarm grows over possible iran, iran, russia , nuclear deal and finally russia, nuclear deal and finally the daily star tv. russia, nuclear deal and finally the daily star tv . lee. my bog the daily star tv. lee. my bog was haunted by a ghost. and those were your front pages . those were your front pages. that's all we have time for. thank you to leo kearse and steve n allen. josh howie will be here tomorrow with kerry marx and joe sutherland. 11 pm. if you're watching at 5 am, please stay tuned for breakfast. good night . night. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news. >> hello. good evening and welcome to your gb news weather update brought to you by the met office. well, we've got a bit of a mix in the weather for this weekend. sunny spells, blustery showers, also some cloud and some outbreaks of rain, but lots of fine weather around too. and
2:55 am
the reason for this mix is that we've got high pressure to the south giving us those fine conditions, but we've also got a weather front that's slowly sinking its way southeastwards across the country, bringing us that cloud and rain. now as we head into this evening, that cloud and rain will slowly move its way into northern areas. and behind it we've got plenty of blustery showers moving their way into western parts of scotland, but to the far south, that's where it's going to be clear and dry and feeling quite chilly as soon as the sun goes down tonight, may even see a little bit of grass frost in rural spots down to the south. so to start sunday, then as i say, plenty of showers moving their way into western and northern parts of scotland, across northern ireland and just into the scottish borders. a fairly cloudy start, but that will break up as we head through the day. cloud and outbreaks of rain and drizzle, which could be a touch heavy over hills across northern areas of england and wales. but, as i say across the south, after a chilly night, thatis south, after a chilly night, that is going to make it feel cold on sunday to begin with.
2:56 am
through the day though, things are going to warm up where we have this band of cloud, rain and drizzle that may just linger on for a time. so quite a damp day for some northern areas of england and wales. sunny spells and blustery showers through into scotland. some of these could be heavy with some hail and thunder, but once again down to the south and southeast , to the south and southeast, that's where they'll hold onto the warmer weather and largely dry as well. now for the start of the new week, we'll start to see high pressure taking hold, which means for most of the country, largely fine and dry conditions. plenty of sunny spells around. you might just see a build of high cloud in the northwest, with a weather front down out into the atlantic, and that high pressure does hold on, which means plenty of fine and settled weather for the beginning of next week. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on
3:00 am
away . away. >> it's 9:00 on television, on radio and online in the united kingdom and across the world. this is mark dolan tonight in my big opinion . millionaire big opinion. millionaire socialist carol vorderman is raging about this new labour government and their treatment of pensioners, except that she campaigned relentlessly to get sir keir starmer into number 10. i'll be dealing with the former countdown star in no uncertain terms in just a moment. in the big story, in a mark dolan tonight exclusive, it's been revealed that foreign born immigrants are disproportionately behind a surge in arrests in the uk. it's a story that you won't hear reported anywhere else, and we'll get more on these shocking statistics in just a few minutes . statistics in just a few minutes. will we ever see a band like the beatles again? i'll be asking my guest, the best selling author of a stunning new biography of
