the latest silly me. get the latest headlines from the gb news centre. the prime minister will no longer accept donations for clothing after the row over gifts. chancellor rachel reeves and deputy prime minister angela rayner have also announced they will take the same approach. the move comes as labour seeks to move comes as labour seeks to move on from the widespread condemnation of the prime minister and his wife's acceptance of gifts, including clothing from prominent labour donor and peer lord alli. sir keir has accepted around £39,000 from lord alli

keir has accepted around £39,000 from lmembers of an elite senior members of an elite hezbollah unit, as they were holding a meeting throughout the day, more than 140 rockets were fired by hezbollah fighters into northern israel. the barrage started a number of fires when some rockets landed in open areas of the israeli countryside, but there are no reported injuries. gb news has learned that donald trump has given nigel farage some key advice, as the reform leader bids to improve his party's chances at the next election. mr farage was speaking to our political editor, christopher hope , after his keynote speech hope, after his keynote speech at the party's annual conference in birmingham. the reform leader had spoken to donald trump in the days after a second assassination attempt on the former president, and received a bit of political advice. >> your inspiration is donald trump giving any advice?

>> i did speak to him on monday after the second after the second assassination attempt. he always encourages me. >> what's his key bit of advice for you? i'd be me. >> one of mohamed al fayed's alleged victims has said the billionaire businessman was highly manipulative. a survivors news conference heard the former harrods owner, described as a monster enabled by a system that pervaded the business. one lawyer said the case combined some of the worst horrific elements of the jimmy savile jeffrey epstein and harvey weinstein abuse scandals. and finally, thousands have gathered in the netherlands to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the allied operation to take the bridge at arnhem. british, dutch and polish paratroopers marched this evening to honour the forces who fought a week long bloody battle to try to

capture the bridge, but almost 2000 allied and commonwealth troops were killed in the ultimately futile effort, which inspired the movie a bridge too far . and you're right up to date far. and you're right up to date with the latest headlines. time to crack open the wine . not me. to crack open the wine. not me. you, sir. aren't you back to patrick for the very latest gb news direct to your smartphone, sign up to news alerts by scanning the qr code or go to gbnews.com forward slash alerts . gbnews.com forward slash alerts. >> okay, welcome along to patrick christys tonight. now normally, as regular viewers and listeners will know, i like to start the hour with a barnstorming, tubthumping monologue about something that you all deeply care about. but tonight i decided that can wait until the 10 pm. hour, because there's been something else that you all care deeply about that's taking place today is the reform party conference, led, of

course, by the rabble rouser in chief, nigel farage, who also delivered a. well, it was quite scintillating speech, i think, today.lee scintillating speech, i think, today. lee anderson also did ann widdecombe did richard tice. i think, spoke at one point as well. so it was all going on well. so it was all going on well. our political editor, christopher hope, managed to finally get nigel farage to just sit still in one place for a little bit , and he cornered sit still in one place for a little bit, and he cornered him for five minutes and asked him a whole host of questions and we have very gratefully been able to get that turned around for the start of this show. so that's quite enough for me. from now, it is time for me to throw you over to the main man, our political editor, christopher hope, and the one and only nigel farage to farage the biggest cheer that happened in your speech there was at the end when you said you don't care about skin colour orientation. >> we care if you share the values of this country. we judge you as a person. why do you have to say that? >> because we're sick to death of being divided up. we're sick to death of our kids at school at young ages. if they're white, being told they're oppressors, if they're black, being told they're victims. this whole division in society, the

equality, diversity and inclusion agenda which now discriminates against majority groups in workplaces or joining the royal air force or whatever it may be. we hate that we don't believe they're consistent with british values in any way. at all. and the reason i got the biggest cheer for that is you can see what a thoroughly decent, open group of people these are. >> do you worry that that language might be seized on? you mentioned skin colour and orientation by by people who think that you are. you'll say you're not. but a far right party, a racist party. >> i'm sorry. you've just contradicted yourself in the most extraordinary way. if that got the biggest cheer, how on earth can we be far right? how on earth can we be friends and talked about? >> if you don't like our culture, get out. what culture does he mean? is it a white culture or what culture? >> culture. i mean , ant >> culture. i mean, ant middleton talks a lot about this. you know , it's about our this. you know, it's about our history that shaped us in the way that it has. and whilst it may not be perfect, it's

something we're proud of . it's something we're proud of. it's about the democracy that we've built . it's about the democracy that we've built. it's about the about the democracy that we've built . it's about the universal built. it's about the universal values that we share. it's about understanding that it is the judeo—christian culture that underpins everything that we stand for. it's not difficult this critics say it though, as being excluding groups, but it's not in your world. >> it's opposite. >> it's opposite. >> it's opposite. >> it's the opposite. no no no no no. it's the diy culture that excludes various groups and says , excludes various groups and says, oh, you must employ this person over that person because they're x, y, or z. we're against all of that. >> you said the sky is the limit, zia yusuf, who's your chairman? he's told us on gb news that you can be within two terms, not one term, two terms. in the 2030s. >> he does run away a bit, doesn't he? >> this is this even possible from where you you're a colleague @gbnews. before the election you thought you'd go back into reform uk. you won five seats. i mean can you really win 321 seats to give you the majority in the house of commons you need? i've never lived through a moment in my life where absolute

disappointment and disillusion with with the two parties. >> people are people are uninspired in every way. they vote for one because they can't stand the other. and vice versa. i mean, even this massive labour majority hasn't come with any love. so if ever there was a moment when something big and historic was going to happen, it's now. now, look, is it probable? no but you asked me a different question. is it possible? anything's possible. >> what are the odds, then? you're a betting man. >> 8 to 1 at the moment. >> 8 to 1 at the moment. >> and you. you put money on 8 to 1. >> well that's what that's what the. that's what i add to what the. that's what i add to what the bookies say. that's what the bookies say. >> but can you really be a pm? i mean, have you got all the qualities you need to do it? i mean, you've, you've run i suppose i'm not. >> no, i haven't really i've not been to oxford. i've run a private business. i have a sense of humour. i'm probably disqualified. but look, chris, you know , point is, in the next you know, point is, in the next five years, it's probable that somebody younger and better

looking than me will come along. and if that's it, may not be you taking it to the next election. but, but but if i can help propel us in that direction. and if nobody does come along, that's better, then i'll have go. >> and your new constitution means that members can vote out if they like. >> well, the new constitution fundamentally changes the shape of the party. you know, it was set up as a company that i owned. i did it and i explained to the audience why to stop us being taken over by a malign actors, i mean, and believe you me, the far right, the genuine far right would have come and tried to take it over. and now is the time this party's come of age to give it to the members. >> how do you do it without data at this party? this. this hall is on a sugar rush of that excitement from july, no question. but how do you get past that? you won with a divided, exhausted tory party against you . they will be against you. they will be organised, you know they'll be organised, you know they'll be organised in 2028, 2029. how do you beat them? >> by organising, you know. i mean, what is the this conference is all about saying to them, i made it very clear in my talk , you know, we will my talk, you know, we will succeed and fail, not on what i

do, on what you do. there's only so much you can do with air war. you know, you can put out big national messages. you can talk to you, you can do social media. you can do all those things. but ultimately you know, it is on the door that it really matters. and the lib dems have proved that, i think i think quite remarkably so. >> the staging post towards you becoming prime minister are what how many seats winning next may at the local election? >> we need to win several hundred seats next may. you know we really would. >> and then the welsh assembly that go into wales, scotland and all the rest of it again, dozens in each, each of those seats. >> we'd need to. well, i think dozens in scotland at this stage would be a bit bullish. it takes time. >> it took time for you to win brexit, the brexit battle, didn't it? it will take time. perhaps more than you know, the brexit, the brexit battle was harder than this is going to be. >> this is about the desire for something different, a feeling that we failed , that the country that we failed, that the country is not working. and yet, despite thinking those things, look at the optimism of our people. they genuinely think something can

happen. >> and just finally, who's your inspiration? is donald trump giving you any advice? >> haha, i did speak to him on monday after the second. after the second. of course. assassination attempt. he always encourages me what's what's his key bit of advice for you? >> be me. be you. nigel farage thank you for joining >> be me. be you. nigel farage thank you forjoining us >> be me. be you. nigel farage thank you for joining us today on gb news. thank you . on gb news. thank you. >> okay, so that was our political editor christopher hope there with nigel farage, leader of reform uk. i'm going to bring my panel into this now susanna , i'll start with you. susanna, i'll start with you. one of the first things there was about, diversity, inclusion etc, followed by another question, which is something lee anderson had raised at the conference today, which is and i'm paraphrasing here, which is essentially, if you don't like britain, you know where the airport is. is that fair enough? do you think? >> well, you know, one of the things that nigel farage has always said, one of his mantras is we want our country back. >> and that is a line that's peppered through his speeches. for as long as i've known him. and this is also a phrase that i hear very often when people are talking, they say, we do want our country back . they recognise our country back. they recognise that britain has changed. you

know, we had labour since 1997, which deliberately allowed mass, uncontrolled immigration. they said at the time to rub the nose of the right in diversity. they wanted to change the way our country looked. he also mentioned equality, diversity and inclusion. now, in my view, when i was at school many, many years ago, i didn't feel that our country was racist in any shape or form. i think , you shape or form. i think, you know, things have definitely changed from the from the 50s and 60s when you first had new immigrants. but since diversity, equality, inclusion has come in, he's absolutely right in what he said. everybody's become much subvert british culture. you can leave everybody's become much more divided. everyone's said. everybody's become much more divided. everyone's wandering around , wandering wandering around , wandering wandering around, wandering around on eggshells, frightened wandering around, wandering around on eggshells, frightened of upsetting anybody, frightened of upsetting anybody, frightened of upsetting anybody, frightened of saying something wrong. so of upsetting anybody, frightened of saying something wrong. so he's right about that. and the he's right about that. and the face of the country has changed. face of the country has changed. there's no doubt about that. it there's no doubt about that. it makes it much less cohesive. makes it much less cohesive. >> crackington you look like a >> crackington you look like a man who definitely doesn't know man who definitely doesn't know where the airport is, but you've where the airport is, but you've decided to come back. so that's decided to come back. so that's great. and do you think it's great. and do you think it's fair enough to just say, fair enough to just say, basically, look, if you don't basically, look, if you don't like it here, stop trying to like it here, stop trying to subvert british culture. you can subvert british culture. you can

leave if leave if you want, otherwise just get on board with it. >> i think it's perfectly fair thing to say, but it's not really a policy, is it ? really a policy, is it? >> so lee anderson has got a bit of a talent for saying these things, and he did when he was in the tories. but but the challenge for reform is, is to come up with some considered policies which could, you know, are they going to deport people who came illegally or people who came and then committed certain criminal offences? what's the plan to do that ? what is the plan to do that? what is the immigration policy looking ahead. but i think it's a very hot button issue at the moment that every single identity group is encouraged to wallow in victimhood, to try and get one over the others. apart from white working class people. right. and they're not allowed to say, well, actually, you know, our teenage daughters are running the gauntlet here, or working class boys are not getting into university. that's an invisible issue, particularly, i think, under this sort of north london labour

government. and, you know, robert jenrick's got a sense of this in, in, in his head, hasn't he. but but nigel farage, lee anderson kind of own the anti—woke thing and they're wise to not let it go. >> okay, matthew, i'll bring you in on that. do you think that there's some truth to that, that what nigel farage is saying there is owning the anti—woke thing and him and robert jenrick talking both really about being proud to be english. the other thing i thought i saw you shaking your head a bit out dunng shaking your head a bit out during that vc, there was about this notion that he could win in 2029. so do you find that ridiculous? >> no , i basically he was >> no, i basically he was talking the bit i was shaking my head at is he thinks that somebody younger and fresher may end up coming along before him. and i think because of nigel's charisma or whatever people think of him , the party will die think of him, the party will die a death when he's finished. i don't see anybody at the moment that can fill that vacuum, that he would leave and it'd be a big vacuum. >> yeah, no, fair enough. on the actual substance of some of the things that he was saying. then when it comes to, you know, people being told that they're a victim or anything along those

lines, do you do you think that he's talking people's language? there should should the labour party be fearful of him saying things like that? >> i think the party should be fearful of nigel. and if they're not, you know, they're daft to consider him as not a threat, i mean, i went to school, you know, a little bit more recently than susanna . i never got told than susanna. i never got told who was victims and who weren't or whether people were racist or told about how awful the country was . i'm told about how awful the country was. i'm proud to be british. i see the world in a very different way from nigel, but i've never seen the almost myths that seem to perpetuate much of pubuc that seem to perpetuate much of public life that were dividing people. and actually nigel's divided a lot of the country in his own way as well. so it's a bit of reap what you sow at times. >> do you think that nigel could go and be prime minister in 2029. i mean that was probably the other really big line that came out of it today i think, which was that they are saying openly we are preparing for

which was that they are saying openlbeing|re preparing for which was that they are saying openlbeing prime3aring for which was that they are saying openlbeing prime ministerr which was that they are saying openlbeing prime minister in 4 think being prime minister in 4 or 5 years time is a little bit ambitious. but i would love to see nigel farage as leader of the opposition. then at the despatch box, because he would be absolutely brilliant. and then i think he'd certainly have a chance at the next election after that, if he still wants to do it, if he says someone younger and prettier hasn't come along or whatever it might be, but yeah, i think they've got to be so careful, though. reform has still got a long way to be professional. when i joined ukip in 2013, i was really quite shocked, having been in the conservative party, just how so far away that party was from being anything like remotely professional and in a sense, reform as the continuation of that legacy. so i really, really want reform to do well. and my message is, please don't mess it up because the country needs you. >> he made a big point during his speech today of saying that one of the big things that they're going to do from now on is absolutely vet every single candidate you can tell that for nigel, the worst case scenario

would be standing at local elections or the next general elections or the next general election or whatever . and it election or whatever. and it turns out that some absolute, complete and utter nutjob with a track record of goodness knows what has managed to wander his way or her way into the party. and so, so, so there is this desire now to try to professionalise it isn't there. and it was a rallying call for everyone in that hall, which did look incredibly full, i must say, to, to try to play their part themselves. so, so do you think he might be successful in that, or is he always going to succumb to the odd nutter? well i think they'll always be the odd so—called nutter. >> and in fact most of the parties have them. but nigel, parties have them. but nigel, parties tend to tend to get more scrutiny because it's a way for both the left and the right to try and keep him down. i actually think the public, despite reform's problems with selecting so many candidates so quickly at the election , i think quickly at the election, i think the public is kind of in in the share price a bit, and the idea that nigel is an extremist, i think he showed with with brexit, he actually was in line

with the majority of the country. and i think personally that's faded away a bit. >> he's got the charisma, he's got things that frankly , keir got things that frankly, keir starmer doesn't have. just very quickly with you. one of the things for you as well is ann widdecombe was up there. she was talking about when labour have released all these prisoners out onto the streets, some of whom miraculously have managed to find their way back into prison in the last week or so. but, what she thinks should have happened was that we'd turned houday happened was that we'd turned holiday camps into secure, prison like units, as almost like halfway houses . and, you like halfway houses. and, you know, it's things like that that i know might sound a bit silly, but i think that would resonate i know might sound a bit silly, but i think that would resonate quite well on the doorstep if quite well on the doorstep if they actually did them. is it is they actually did them. is it is it that kind of policy thing it that kind of policy thing that labour's missing out on? that labour's missing out on? >> if anybody that's ever stayed >> if anybody that's ever stayed at butlins thinks it's maybe a at butlins thinks it's maybe a prison camp anyway, you know, so prison camp anyway, you know, so it wouldn't make much of a it wouldn't make much of a difference. sorry to butlins, difference. sorry to butlins, no. i think prisons . well, no. i think prisons . well, no. i think prisons. well, quite. yeah. no, i think people no. i think prisons. well, quite. yeah. no, i think people may like that. we have a country may like that. we have a country that believes in being very tough on crime. and actually new that believes in being very tough on crime. and actually new labour did that. they were in labour did that. they were in talks about opening up ships to talks about opening up ships to put overspills of prisons on put overspills of prisons on

which i wouldn't, you know, which i wouldn't, you know, think is a bit silly, think is a good idea. but there's a narrative there. >> yeah, yeah, it's going to be interesting to see how it pans out. but, yeah, certainly the way things are going for keir starmer, we're going to be talking a lot about that later on. still to come, thanks to your generosity. yes. my fundraiser for friends of the elderly now has just under £170,000 in it. but i'm not the only one who is worried about pensioners. the daily express is also on the warpath. they want the government to reverse their decision to cut winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners. i'm going to be speaking to the journalist behind that crusade. she's got some really, really, really heart wrenching first hand accounts. some people who have been writing to her. and also, if you do want to donate, it's just giving .com forward slash page forward slash save our seniors. our target is 260

half of a fabulous head to head with amy ansell, and that's

next. next. welcome back to patrick christys welcome back to patrick christys tonight. would you like your tonight. would you like your child to live as a wolf? it's child to live as a wolf? it's time now for our head to head . time now for our head to head . time now for our head to head. that's right. a british time now for our head to head. that's right. a british

schoolboy has reportedly been schoolboy has reportedly been allowed to identify allowed to identify as a wolf. now, bear with me here. the schoolboy is allegedly suffering from species dysphoria , which is from species dysphoria, which is when someone claims their body belongs to a different species. teachers at the boy's secondary school are said to be supporting him. it comes after a school in aberdeen was forced last year to deny claims that pupils were identifying as cats, and had been given litter trays to use in the toilets. so tonight i'm asking have wokeist diversity and inclusion policies gone too far ? going head to head on this far? going head to head on this on the media commentator paula london and the presenter and commentator amy ansell, both of you, thank you very much. great to have you on the show tonight. paula. i'll start with you. should schools be allowing children to identify as wolves? >> definitely not. and firstly, there's no such thing as species dysphoria, so i don't know how he can identify as something that doesn't exist. and the teachers should definitely not be pandering to him. i think the problem starts at home though. he needs to have a very strong talking to by his parents or caregivers, and i don't

understand why they're pandering to him at school. i think it's very eerie. i think he definitely needs to see a child psychiatrist as well. and perhaps he should be eating, vermin or eating snakes because that's what wolves do. i mean, how far is he taking it? is he not using bathrooms for human beings ? i don't know what's beings? i don't know what's going on, but if i was, like, running the school, i'd actually suspend him because other vulnerable children in his class could act up because he is in the vicinity daily and trying to put crazy stories into their heads. >> yeah, amy. i mean, why are we pandenng >> yeah, amy. i mean, why are we pandering to this weird stuff? >> no, i agree, i actually i'm on the same side as paul is, strangely. i mean, i think it's really important to support children and the way they want to express themselves, their creativity, their passions, their loves, their interests. but when it comes to identifying as an animal, i mean, you're opening a can of worms and an animal and a and a and a, species dysphoria, which isn't

even a medical or a clinical condition. and to have to accept something like that in a school, i think it's going to be really disruptive. i mean, what are they going to do? they're going to go see the vet and not the nurse. is there even a vet in the school? if they feel unwell? i mean, what are they going to eat? i mean, is there a howling part in the chorus like what? i don't understand how that's how they're going to integrate into a school with children . a school with children. >> well, well, they're probably not, are they? they might get on better at the zoo or, i don't know, in the woods or something. but paula, i suppose some people would say, well, look, you know, we are a modern world. we have to be sympathetic towards children now. and we can't we can't beat it out of him, can we? so we're going to have to just let him howl at the moon. >> i don't think we need to be sympathetic. i just think he needs a strong talking to

sympathetic. i just think he needs a strong talkinin:o sympathetic. i just think he needs a strong talkinin the end, the united kingdom. in the end, what's going to happen is like children in china and in japan, they're going to be way ahead of our children when they're trying to get jobs, because we've had all this woke ideology pushed on them , and we've had a lot of them, and we've had a lot of schools just bending over backwards. and they care more about the wokeness than they do about the wokeness than they do a regular curriculum. so i believe in being strict. my parents were strict and my school teachers were strict. you know, i had children in my class. i was in a girls school that were tomboys . these days, that were tomboys. these days, teachers would be saying, oh, are you sure you're not trans? are you sure you're not buying a non—binary? it's ridiculous. you 90, non—binary? it's ridiculous. you go, that's a good point . go, that's a good point. >> that's a good point. and amy, i do wonder how you feel about this. you know, if we've got schools now that are absolutely 100% ready and willing to accept that someone turns up and they are a wolf, or they're having to deny the idea that they've got some children, they're not just claiming to be cats. one of them genuinely at this other school, said they wanted to identify as the moon. right. so it's not even it's not even living,

breathing things anymore. it's just stuff. i mean , they surely just stuff. i mean, they surely would also, amy, be more than willing to affirm somebody's changing gender and that's a problem for kids. amy, surely . problem for kids. amy, surely. >> well, here's the thing. i mean, you have to live within society. and if you're going to claim you're the moon, you're the wolf, you're the cat. you have to live your whole life like that, and you can't do that. living in society, going to school , it's just to school, it's just unacceptable. and it's really not. it's going to be very disruptive. they won't be able to integrate into society as those things. >> okay. all right. i mean, i just think that maybe we should be, knocking some heads together over this, really, and wondering how on earth we've ended up in a situation i think the parents need to be having a serious talking to as well as anybody at the school or both of you. thank you very, very much. that was paula london there and the presenter and commentator amy ansell, great to see you both coming up. reform uk did kick off their conference in birmingham today and all eyes were on this man and the effect

that. were on this man and the effect that . okay, so he's claimed that that. okay, so he's claimed that he'll be prime minister by 2029. and i am actually going to talk to reform uk mp james mcmurdo. but we have a little treat for you . i'm but we have a little treat for you. i'm going to be taking you live to birmingham for the very latest from the conference hall. okay. so this is the kind of after hours party where frankly , after hours party where frankly, anything could be happening. i'm also going to be talking to you also going to be talking to you a bit about the latest expenses scandal that is engulfing the labour party. it's some stuff that's landed in just the last couple of hours. so stay tuned for that. oh yeah. but first, sorry . thanks to your donations sorry. thanks to your donations and my fundraiser for friends of the elderly has now reached more than £170,000. but i'm not the only one who's worried about pensioners daily express. they are on the warpath as well, and they want the government to actually reverse their decision to cut winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners. i'm going to be speaking to the journalist behind that crusade

in just a few moments time, so i will see you then. >> monday, the king of breakfast tv is back . that's right, tv is back. that's right, britain's favourite tv host eamonn holmes returns to britain's hottest breakfast programme , breakfast, every day from 6 am. only on gb. britain's news

>> welcome back to patrick christys tonight and wow. now more than 6600 of you wonderful people have donated almost £170,000 to my fundraiser for friends of the elderly. i mean, i would just like to say a quick thank you to alan, who's donated £10 in the last few minutes. an anonymous person has donated £100 in the last five minutes. pat has given us £20. so that's another £10 in just the last ten minutes as well, there's all of these people. it's just absolutely flooding in. roger and eileen have given £100 plus £25 gift aid. all of that stuff has been in the last couple of minutes . now has been in the last couple of minutes. now you can see a qr code on your screen there. if you hold your phone over it, something magic happens and it takes you to that page or you can go to justgiving.com forward slash page forward slash. save our seniors. if you can. be much appreciated. all of that money goes to friends of the elderly who give grants to old people. in times of need, who help take them to hospital and doctor's appointments, who help get them

fridges. if there's breaks or a toaster or a bed. we heard a story yesterday of one chap who sadly couldn't didn't have a bed, so he was sleeping on the floor and it took him months and months and months to actually call for help, because that is the kind of people that that generation are. well, your money could go to helping those over the course of this winter, but a lot of them are going to be unable to heat their homes, aren't they? because of the loss of the winter fuel payment and the rise in the energy price cap? but i'm going to keep going and do everything that i possibly can to raise as much money as i can to try to show our greatest generation that we will not turn our backs on them as a country. and that challenge that i'll be doing next week, by the way. so i'm going to be doing a challenge next week, is to live off a budget of a pensioner surviving on less than the state pension. okay, so next week , monday to friday, i'm week, monday to friday, i'm going to be trying to live off a food budget of £15, and i'm going to be documenting it. i'll be doing my bit to it just to show what some elderly people are having to try to live off. so it's a food budget, monday to

friday, a £15. but i'm also not the only person who's worried about pensioners. the daily express, they're on the warpath. they want the government to actually reverse their decision to cut the winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners. and i'm very glad to be joined now by the journalist behind their crusade as senior political correspondent at the daily express. it's steph spero steph, thank you very much. great to have you on the show. and so i was just hoping you might be able to tell us a little bit about some of the stories that are coming to you from elderly people who know that they're going to be struggling without this winter fuel payment. >> we've heard incredibly heartbreaking stories. our post box at the express is inundated with our readers, who are not only frightened, but furious at davis's decision. i think just this week we've amassed, i think , this week we've amassed, i think, more than ten massive, massive, massive postage stacks of really angry readers. i think today's splash highlights the people at the at the root of this policy, we highlighted jack barlow's

story. he's 86. he's a veteran who served on christmas island testing atomic bombs. and for him, his reward for service to the nation was the winter fuel payment . and that's been payment. and that's been snatched away from him. so he is understandably livid. there are millions of pensioners who serve their country, and they feel this is what they've now been left with. other readers have emailed me to say that they are worried about their own lives, but even the risk of, dare i say, suicide, some people feel that this winter is going to be so unbearable that it's not even worth living through. >> and that is absolutely staggering. i am glad that you've raised that issue, because the mental health amongst the elderly is something that doesn't get spoken about a lot. often it's bracketed as loneliness, but i think sometimes that is that is miscategorised genuine out and out hopelessness and depression will be another way of putting it. and when you're staring down the barrel of literally having to choose between heating and eating, i heard a story yesterday about someone who had to choose between being able to

pay to choose between being able to pay for a taxi to their chemotherapy appointment, or being able to heat their living room. i mean, that is just disgusting. a disgusting way for anyone who's paid into the system their whole lives and done their bit to have to end their days. steph, i think absolutely. >> and the thing is, it's not just pensioners who are angry. i mean, labour mps themselves want rachel reeves to u—turn on this decision. their inboxes are heaving with people who are feeling the very real impacts of this policy. as you said . so this policy. as you said. so labouris this policy. as you said. so labour is going to come under a lot of pressure. i don't think that's going to go away any time soon to help make a difference to these millions and millions of pensioners lives, who really, really are at risk this this winter. it is it's dire for many, many people. >> did you realise this problem was as bad as it is? i mean, you said you've got stacks and stacks and stacks of letters. i read with great interest to what was on the front page. your splash of the daily express today. no doubt there'll be many more to come as well, did you realise that this was a problem, that that is as widespread as it is? because the common, the

common rhetoric about pensioners at the moment, if you believe you know, for a lot of people is they're all they're all millionaires and they're sitting in million pound houses and they're all going to be fine. but i think you've had a window into the reality, haven't you ? into the reality, haven't you? >> exactly. and the thing is, the government's own equality assessment, which they snuck out last friday and at like 7 pm. at night, showed that i think seven out of ten disabled pensioners are set to lose their winter fuel payments. so it's not just rich people with many homes. that is that is a myth completely. it is people who risk going without food, turning down their heating, and elderly people need, just by the nature of their age and their vulnerability, need more heat. and i don't think we actually realise the extent of the anger of this issue when we first launched the campaign. but it is coming thick and fast and is showing no signs of it slowing down any time soon. so this issue is not going away . we're issue is not going away. we're going to keep championing it. and i think the pressure on rachel reeves and sir keir starmer is definitely on. >> i think you're doing a great

thing there, stefan, and thank you very much for doing it. steph. spyro there, who is the senior political correspondent at the daily express. thank you very, very much. look, if you want to give or can give anything, please go to justgiving.com. forward slash page forward slash, save our seniors . every single penny of seniors. every single penny of that goes to a charity called friends of the elderly. they take people to and from appointments. they get them urgent things that they need around their house. they give them grants so they can pay their heating bills. this winter and next week as well. i will be trying to live all week off a food budget of £15 to try and show a bit of solidarity with what some of the pensioners are having to go through at the moment. but yes. anyway, next it was the first day of reform uk conference in birmingham today, nigel farage certainly made quite an entrance to me . perhaps quite an entrance to me. perhaps you can take me back . quite an entrance to me. perhaps you can take me back. i'm going to take you live to the conference hall for all of the

very latest. so there you go. we will send you. we will send you to the reform party conference.

okay. welcome back to patrick christys tonight. now, the reform uk conference in birmingham has kicked off. it's in full swing. nigel farage made a barnstorming speech claiming that reform uk would change britain forever . but our britain forever. but our political editor, christopher hope, is at the conference in birmingham for us tonight and he's at the party, the party and he's at the party, the party and he's outside it there. we go. christopher, how is it? how is everyone? is everyone still standing ? standing? >> just about patrick. yeah, it's noisy here, nigel farage just was serenaded by his own supporters singing you're too to good be true. and it feels that almost summarises this entire conference. 4000. people here at the nec outside birmingham . it's

the nec outside birmingham. it's for me. it's a members conference i've been to. so many of these over three decades. normally these conferences are in a, in a in a city in manchester, liverpool, birmingham or even london because that suits the corporates. it suits the lobbyists. but this is held in the middle of nowhere outside birmingham, surrounded by massive car parks. but that suits members. that suits real people and that energy. i think, patrick, is what you're seeing come through at this reform uk conference, you played out the interview i did earlier with with nigel farage. he gives himself 8 to 1. on being prime minister in 2029, which is something i mean, i will give it 100 to 1. but you know, he's ever the optimist, isn't he? he's got to get 321 more mps than he's got to get to get a majority in the house of commons, he said. is it probable ? commons, he said. is it probable? no. is it possible anything's possible, i've sent you a whatsapp, patrick, in your in

your phone. you'll see farage early being sung to by members. you might might enjoy it. >> well, i've got it. so basically i have got a video of nigel farage dancing on stage and being serenaded, which we're going to play in the next hour. >> so thank you for sending, in a way, thank you for sending that to me, christopher. >> but just just quickly, the atmosphere there generally now people, you know, having fun getting on it, singing and dancing. >> is that what's going on? >> is that what's going on? >> that's right. we've got this. we've got a live band on stage now playing. i'm i'm still standing. lots of jokes about lee anderson of course, i'm in the same place where the speeches were earlier. i mean, this is unlike anything i've been to. i went to all the brexit party's rallies. they were lower key, more like an evangelist rally, preaching to the converted. this feels a factor different to that. but whether the change can happen in the time which farage has got, being leader because he is 60 and the clock is ticking, this is very much his party, his

people, and how that party can find new leaders. to take it on is a big challenge. >> christopher, thank you very much. really, really appreciate you kind of placing us at the scene there this evening. so you go and enjoy yourself. and i want to see a video of you on stage dancing very shortly . stage dancing very shortly. christopher hope, our political edhon christopher hope, our political editor. good luck right now, a little bit earlier today, i actually spoke to reform uk mp. he's called james murdoch and there were a few policies or things that had the whiff of a policy being lobbed out at reform today. so here's some of them. his response to some of them. his response to some of them. thank you very much. great to have you on the show. i mean, nigel farage says that you can win the general election in 2029. surely not. >> no, i think we can. i think we can. if i can be here and he can be there, no doubt about it. >> how are you going to do it? how are you going to do it? it's a massive ask. you've got five mps at the moment. >> i think we've done the hardest part already. we've got the five of us in. that was really in the short space of time, the most significant thing

in modern political history. so professionalising building out the branches, getting the grassroots people, which are desperate for change, involved with us. the rest is easy. >> one of the things that's really struck me about this is how desperate everybody on the left is for you to fail. so the bbc have already set up a fact checking service to try to fact checking service to try to fact check everything that's being said at this reform conference. so far, one of the big ones. it won't surprise you. one of the big ones is about this idea that we can't just take illegal migrants back to france. but i think reform policy is that you would just take them back to france. is that right? can we do that? would we do that under reform ? >> reform? >> well, look, firstly, it's absolutely right that facts should be checked. we want people to get the truth. and that's regardless of whose mouth it's coming out of. but look, people are drowning in the sea. you know, people are coming here illegally and then we're stuck with them. and that's not fair.

on them. it's a danger to their lives. it's not really fair on anyone. what we should be doing is keeping these people safe by keeping them in a safe country, which is france. >> okay. all right. and look, i'm just going to ask you a couple of things that have been said. so far. so ann widdecombe was responding to the labour decision to release prisoners early, some of whom, by the way , early, some of whom, by the way, have already found their way back into prison, which i think everybody could have seen coming. but she decided that it might be quite a good idea to put prisoners into essentially houday put prisoners into essentially holiday camps , just as an holiday camps, just as an overflow facility. do you stand by that? do you think that's something that would be good? >> look, we have to take care of the public. we should never. and this is no reference to anne. this is just . we should never this is just. we should never lose our humanity. we do have to take care of people. that's one of the reasons great britain is one of the greatest countries in the world. we do have a responsibility to everyone, even if we don't like it .

responsibility to everyone, even if we don't like it. but we do have to come up with practical solutions, even if they're difficult. >> and is that something that you think is a significant let down at the moment, the safety of the british public? i mean , of the british public? i mean, nigel mentioned it in his speech earlier on as well . i mean, earlier on as well. i mean, under the conservatives, clearly for years there was , you know, for years there was, you know, rampant knife crime, etc. was allowed to expand the diminishing of our police force. and then under labour now we've actually had some criminals, quite a lot of them released early haven't we. so is that an area for reform do you think about about restoring law and order? >> of course. i mean, it's one of the most fundamental parts of a successful society, and we're failing in it. we cannot have machete wielding maniacs running on our street. we're trying to raise our children here. it's not good enough. we're failing, so we have to do something about it. >> and i know that, lee anderson was on the stage before he gave a very impassioned speech. he pred a very impassioned speech. he ripped up a bbc licence fee. nofice ripped up a bbc licence fee. notice the crowd was. the crowd

was going for all of that. he did say something, which i'm paraphrasing here, but it was essentially, if you don't really like britain, then you can leave . like britain, then you can leave. okay. and how do you feel about that? what do you. i think to me that? what do you. i think to me that speaks to a greater extent about about integration and how multiculturalism maybe hasn't worked. so what would reform do about that other than just saying to people, look, you know, where the airport is ? know, where the airport is? >> well, look , lee has a way >> well, look, lee has a way with words and he puts things the way he does because to an extent, he's absolutely right. if you don't like it here, you do not have to stay here. but we do not have to stay here. but we do have a british culture. it's a wonderful place to live. we've got to where we are partly and well, in large part because of that culture. we should be protecting it and we should be encouraging other people to be involved in it because of the benefits it offers. it's such a fair place to live. it's such a good place to live . it's such a good place to live. it's such a nice part of the world we have created. we should protect it and we should encourage other people, regardless of where they're from , regardless of what

they're from, regardless of what they're from, regardless of what they believe, to be involved. it's good for all of us. >> just very. lastly, james, grateful for your time. i've been seeing a lot of things from inside that conference hall. things how you're only allowed to buy four alcoholic beverages at one time. i believe there's even a beer lanyard being sold so that you can put a beer on your lanyard and have it round your lanyard and have it round your neck at all times, if you like. hey, you know, it's all fun and games as far as i'm concerned, but it is currently, at the time i'm interviewing you, 5:45 in the afternoon by the time i go out on air at about 945 this evening, how much fun do you think everybody's going to be having there ? going to be having there? >> they'll be having just the right amount. >> just the right amount , which >> just the right amount, which is very businesslike, which is lots. >> all right . look, james, you >> all right. look, james, you look after yourself. thank you very much for your time today. and i hope that you continue to enjoy the conference. >> so you take care. see you soon. all right. well, i can confirm that they are having lots of fun because when i come back, i'm going to be showing you a video of nigel farage dancing on stage . i've seen it.

dancing on stage. i've seen it. now you have to see it. okay but there is some other very, very serious news. that's likely because keir starmer has finally caved to in pressure and announced that he will stop taking clothing freebies. but there's more. rachel reeves and angela rayner initially declared their freebies as office support. it's also turned out in the last few minutes david lammy received £10,000 from a saudi donor months before becoming foreign secretary, and so did the justice secretary, shabana mahmood. that story has just landed. according to reports in the telegraph. i will bring you right up to date on the latest of labours donations scandal. oh, and did they do an assessment? an impact assessment on the winter fuel payments ? on the winter fuel payments? well, it turns out they did. but they're refusing to tell you what's in there. why are they so allergic to being honest? stay tuned for that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb.

>> news . >> news. >> news. >> evening. welcome to your latest weather update from the met office here on gb news tomorrow's weather patterns similar to today as much of the nonh similar to today as much of the north dry in the south. again, we need to watch out for some thunderstorms developing. we've seen a few today . low pressure seen a few today. low pressure is heading up from the south. high pressure dominating to the north of scotland, bringing, as i say , much of northern britain i say, much of northern britain a dry day today and a dry and a fine night. having said that, the cloud is thick enough in the east for a little bit of drizzle here and there in the south we've seen some big downpours today. they are going to fade through this evening, but later in the night we could start to see a few more heavy showers coming in. it will be quite a mild night in the south, but with clear skies in parts of scotland . temperatures will be scotland. temperatures will be well down into single digits again, though . western scotland again, though. western scotland having a cracking day if you like . september sunshine. like. september sunshine. meanwhile, in the south we have another thunderstorm warning. not everywhere in this large warning area will see downpours, but where they do occur like

today, they could cause some issues , potentially some issues, potentially some flooding. there's going to be lots of lightning and large hailstones as well. eastern scotland, north—east england likely to stay fairly glum. a bit of drizzle is possible along the coast and over the hills, but generally staying dry and certainly plenty of sunshine once more. in western scotland there will be some sunshine further south as well. the hit and miss nature of those thunderstorms, though. that's why we've got the warning in place. they could cause some disruption. certainly a lot of spray and surface water on the roads, so bear that in mind. parts of the midlands, wales, southern england, most susceptible, but some heavy showers across eastern england too. in the sunny spells it'll feel quite warm. mid 20s, possibly 20 or 21. in western scotland, but where it stays glum in the east coast it will be cooler and that cloud is back again on sunday and the heavy showers across the south as well. we have another yellow met office warning in place for sunday, covering large parts of england and wales for wet weather, with the thunderstorms today and tomorrow , that extra

today and tomorrow, that extra rain could cause some further disruption. the warnings are available on the met office website. >> looks like things are heating up. boxt boilers sponsors of weather

gb news. >> it's 10 pm. patrick christys tonight . now >> it's 10 pm. patrick christys tonight. now angela >> it's 10 pm. patrick christys tonight . now angela rayner tonight. now angela rayner refuses to reveal all the details of the donation she's received and is not in receipt of pension credit or certain other means tested benefits will no longer receive the winter fuel payments from this year onwards. labour did do an impact assessment on winter fuel payments, apparently, but now they're refusing to reveal that as well. and our solution is a new brand that strikes out hate replacing it with a simple bar of hope, reducing the visual power of the word hate. it turns

out that a labour party whip and other mps are also members of a hard core left wing campaign group called hope, not hate. should that be allowed? and in the last few minutes as well, it's emerged that david lammy, the foreign secretary, and shabana mahmood, the justice secretary, have reportedly taken £10,000 donations each from a saudi backer. so i'll bring you more detail on that reported in the telegraph also tonight. >> england in particular in recent decades , our identity has recent decades, our identity has started to fray . started to fray. >> why are patriotic english people always accused of being racist? is it time to hit back to that on my panel? who will be picking their way through all the front pages tonight? is political consultant suzanne evans, columnist patrick o'flynn and ex—labour party adviser matthew torbett . and they are matthew torbett. and they are very much having fun at the reform party conference. i love you say if it's right or wrong. >> i need you begum get ready

britain. >> here we go . >> here we go. how many labour piggies have their snouts in the trough? next . their snouts in the trough? next. >> at 10:00, the latest headunes >> at 10:00, the latest headlines from the gb news centre. the prime minister will no longer accept donations for clothing after the row over gifts . chancellor rachel reeves gifts. chancellor rachel reeves and deputy prime minister angela rayner have also announced they will take the same approach. the move comes as labour seeks to move comes as labour seeks to move on from the widespread condemnation of the prime minister after he and his wife accepted gifts, including clothing from prominent labour donor and peer lord alli. sir keir has accepted around £39,000 from lord alli since december

2019. gb news has learned that donald trump has given nigel farage some key advice as the reform leader bids to improve his party's chances at the next election . mr farage was speaking election. mr farage was speaking to our political editor, christopher hope, after his keynote speech at the party's annual conference in birmingham. the reform leader had spoken to donald trump in the days after a second assassination attempt on the former president, and received a bit of political advice. >> your inspiration is donald trump giving any advice? >> i did speak to him on monday after the second after the second assassination attempt. he always encourages me. >> what's his key bit of advice for you? i'd be me. >> and finally , thousands have >> and finally, thousands have gathered in the netherlands to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the allied operation to take

the bridge at arnhem. british, dutch and polish paratroopers marched this evening to honour the forces who fought a week long bloody battle to try to capture the bridge. but almost 2000 allied and commonwealth troops were killed in the ultimately futile effort which inspired the movie a bridge too far . yeah, that wasn't quite far. yeah, that wasn't quite the. and finally, the hezbollah terror group has suffered another major blow after one of its most senior commanders was killed in an israeli airstrike. ibrahim akil is reported to have died when warplanes struck the building he was in earlier on friday in the lebanese capital, beirut. security sources said he was killed alongside ten other senior members of an elite hezbollah unit, as they were holding a meeting throughout the day. more than 140 rockets were fired by hezbollah into northern

israel. the barrage started a number of fires when some rockets landed in open areas of the israeli countryside, but there are no reported injuries. one of mohamed al fayed alleged victims has said. the billionaire businessman was highly manipulative. a survivor's news conference heard the former harrods owner , the former harrods owner, described as a monster enabled by the system that pervaded the business. one lawyer said the case combined some of the most horrific elements of the jimmy savile, jeffrey epstein and harvey weinstein abuse scandals . harvey weinstein abuse scandals. well, those are the latest gb news headlines for the moment. buckle up for another rip roaring hour with patrick for the very latest gb news direct to your smartphone , sign up to to your smartphone, sign up to news alerts by scanning the qr code, or go to gbnews.com >> forward slash alerts .

>> forward slash alerts. >> forward slash alerts. >> the cloud of corruption over downing street has today been replaced by a fog of deceit. angela rayner was refusing to reveal exactly what type of donation she took . then, in the donation she took. then, in the last couple of hours or so , it's last couple of hours or so, it's emerged that both the labour deputy prime minister and chancellor, rachel reeves, declared clothing donations as, quote, office support. reeves received 7500 pounds from a donor called juliet rosenfeld in four instalments from january 2023 to may 2024, that was used to pay for clothing , according to pay for clothing, according to pay for clothing, according to people with knowledge of the gifts they were registered as donations to support the shadow chancellor's office. okay, now the latest is that keir starmer, angela rayner and rachel reeves have said that they won't take any more clothing donations. well, they don't need to, do they, because they've already

been shopping. if you've just spent five grand on clothes, you wouldn't need to spend any more ehhen wouldn't need to spend any more either, would you? what about concert tickets? hospitality at the football holidays to new york, angela rayner apparently spent five nights in new york at lord ali's luxury £2 million apartment. now she only declared £1,250 for that, reportedly. does that add up to you? maybe it does. it is reasonable to ask whether or not the prime minister, the deputy prime minister, the deputy prime minister and the chancellor of the exchequer have all tried to deceive us when it comes to their donations. but are they also deceiving the public in other areas? and just at this point, can i alert you to a story that has just landed in the daily telegraph, which is the daily telegraph, which is the headline david lammy's office took £10,000 in donations from a saudi supporting pr chief. they also report that shabana mahmood, the justice secretary, also took a £10,000 donation from a saudi arabia

backing pr chief. is that very aligned, do we think, with the labour party's values? i'm not sure, but potentially another area where people are looking to deceive the public is this £22 billion black hole now labour are now refusing to reveal what that black hole is, so they won't tell us exactly what it is. but today it's emerged that labour have been given a £10 billion boost from the bank of england. she's got £10 billion more to play with than she thought . okay, so this means, thought. okay, so this means, surely, that rachel reeves doesn't have to scrap the winter fuel payments for pensioners . fuel payments for pensioners. but here's another thing that labour seemingly wants to hide from us the result of their own impact assessment into scrapping that winter fuel payment. now we know that they did one whilst they were in opposition and that that predicted that around 4000 elderly people might die. well, labour initially claimed that they hadn't done a new one. starmer even said this. there isn't a report on my desk which somehow we're not showing that i'm not showing. it's as simple as that. well, then the treasury

responded to a freedom of information request and said that they have done a full internal policy impact assessment, but they're refusing to publish it. now, one can only assume that the result of this impact assessment is absolutely awful, because otherwise it would be out there. surely. so they don't want to tell us about they don't want to tell us about the donations. they don't want to tell us the truth about the economy. seemingly. they don't want to tell us about their impact assessments. is this labour government allergic to being honest? let's get the thoughts from our panel this evening. i'm joined by political consultant suzanne evans. i also have columnist and political commentator patrick o'flynn and the former labour party adviser as well, matthew talbot. suzanne, i'll start with you. when it comes to what we've just seen there about, you know, these donations, etc, and it appears that they might have been trying to be quite deceitful about that. >> patrick, we've had a labour government for 11 weeks and it's an absolute swamp, isn't it? there's no doubt about it. i

mean, every day some other piece of cronyism or kind of abuse of power comes, comes up . really power comes, comes up. really shocking. now, this latest story about david lammy. we have a foreign secretary who's taking money effectively for a foreign power. he needs to resign. i'm sorry. he needs to resign . and sorry. he needs to resign. and if the tories were still in power and it was found out that the foreign secretary had done that, they'd be calling for resignations. this is an absolute swamp. everything they're doing. you know, there's a saying that politics is show business for ugly people, but politics isn't show business. this isn't about superstars. you know, taking the loan of a wardrobe from a designer to get pubuchy wardrobe from a designer to get publicity and so on and so forth. politics should be about pubuc forth. politics should be about public service. it's about the greater good of your country. it's not about sponging. it's not about behaving like a superstar on the world stage, swanning around in designer clothes, going to football matches , corporate hospitality, matches, corporate hospitality, behaving like you're filthy rich

and living the life of riley. i'm absolutely disgusted. and i can't believe in such a short space of time. it's this bad. >> i mean, trying to declare certain things as as, like office expenditure or things like that when it's when it's closed and then coming out and saying, well, we promised that we won't take any more clothes. as i said before, that's because you've already bought your wardrobe, isn't it? we don't need to have more clothes if we've just spent five grand on clothes. surely. so you know, what about the other stuff? should they. should they release a statement saying we're not going to take donations for other things as well? or is that a bit too far? people need to have the odd day out. >> well, look, i think what we're seeing here is that left wing politicians in our country, particularly in the labour party, are addicted to the idea of their own virtue. right? so it's kind of it's fine when we do it. they get on their high horse with the so—called evil tories without once thinking how they look, because they just suppose that they're all virtuous and ethical. so, for instance, keir starmer said he thinks most people in fact, at

some point he said everyone would think of what he's doing with his arsenal er executive box and think fair do's. well no they wouldn't. no they don't. no they wouldn't. no they don't. no they wouldn't. no they don't. no they wouldn't. and, and the free clothes and, and you know keir starmer is on the prime minister's salary. he's also got an enormous public sector pension pending as former deputy former director of public prosecutions. he's also been a kc or as it was a qc for many years. he is a very wealthy man who will get more wealthy after his term of office is over, which is hopefully soon. they are sleazy. they're just as on the take as boris johnson, for instance. ever, ever was. and yet they can't see themselves as other. is it a problem? >> is it a problem, do you think, matthew, that david lammy and our justice minister as and ourjustice minister as well, shabana mahmood, appeared to have taken £10,000 from a saudi supporting pr chief? >> politically, it can be seen as a problem. i think the problem with this, and i used to

always be worried about people that wish to donate to mps. i worked for, because you don't know what they potentially have written or think. there's only so much you can look up this guy you know, supports. i mean, he's come out and he said that he's he's criticised the uk government's previous foreign policy interventions in the middle east. i think that's probably fair enough as a broad thing. i think we do need to get a little bit of perspective on this. now, i, you know, no, no hold no candle to keir starmer. i've never really been a fan of keir starmer. you know, he wasn't my choice for leader. i don't think he's a particularly good leader. however the idea that this cloud of cronyism or that this cloud of cronyism or that it's a swamp, all of a sudden, i think maybe we have some short memories when we think back to the fact that we had people in high office getting tanked up during the biggest public health crisis this country has seen in over a hundred years. the fact that we had the prime minister's special adviser. all right, not not on as much money. isn't it ? not on as much money. isn't it? not on as much money. isn't it? not on as much money. isn't it? not on as much not not on more money than the prime minister at the

time, but thought it was okay to drive 60 miles to test his eyes. >> is that why just, just just quickly on that? is that not. maybe. why? because of keir starmer and co's reaction to those things. is that not now ? those things. is that not now? why? maybe they should quit over this stuff. >> i don't think they should quit. but i remember thinking at the time, this will come back and bite you. yeah, because ultimately people are going to want to try and influence politicians and they will do that in many such ways, such as clothes, you know, donations. people want to gain influence. so i think and i think other mps apparently at the time said, you've taken this too far. >> the problem for this now is it's every day. it's something every day it's rank hypocrisy, rank hypocrisy and stupidity as well. >> that's the other thing i can't understand about this is are these people who've taken all these gifts so stupid that they've allowed themselves effectively to be blackmailed in that, that way, or at least open to allegations of blackmail? because if you accept a gift like that, come on, you've got to think people are going to want something in return. it's

stupidity , hypocrisy, i think stupidity, hypocrisy, i think particularly daft. >> it is the foreign secretary taking donations from someone unked taking donations from someone linked to a controversial foreign regime. is very , very foreign regime. is very, very suspect indeed. and it should never , absolutely never have never, absolutely never have happened. and the other key thing is that all the freebie stuff has come out when they're doing this policy of removing the winter fuel payment from 90% of pensioners, any pensioner who's got income of above about 11,500 pounds, these are a lot of very modestly stretched people . and labour were supposed people. and labour were supposed to reduce the cost of energy by £300 a year. it's going the cap is going up £149, and ed miliband is planning all sorts of ludicrously expensive things that will will send it up even further. >> so just to recap, because i appreciate there's a lot and there's a lot that's just happened because we've had this, this lammy and the justice minister, shabana mahmood, donations stuff that has landed in the last few minutes. okay,

so today angela rayner initially was refusing to outline exactly what some of the donations were. thenit what some of the donations were. then it turned out that her and rachel reeves actually had listed donations for their office, and had listed donations office, and had listed donations of clothes, sorry, as donations for their office. then they came out about that, and then keir starmer , the deputy prime starmer, the deputy prime minister and the chancellor have now said, sorry, okay, we won't take any more donations of clothing. now, it turned out that the foreign secretary and the justice secretary have both taken ten grand, it seems. anyway, according to the daily telegraph, from a saudi backing pr executive, which is quite astonishing. the other, the other aspect of this , matthew, other aspect of this, matthew, is, is this report supposedly they've done an impact assessment on the winter fuel payment. right. and we know they did one in opposition, which suggested that around 4000 people might die as a result of it. they said that they hadn't done one for this. keir starmer said he wasn't lying about that. now it looks as though the treasury did do one and they're refusing to reveal it . what do refusing to reveal it. what do we think is going on here? have they got one do we think. and

they're refusing to reveal it. >> if the treasury have said they have, i assume they have. the point is, the treasury, you know, answers as part of the civil service, they can't take part in the potential particularly should they reveal it then do you think or what do you reckon? probably not politically, because what it will probably say is that your grandma and granddad may well fries that may freeze at christmas time. and that's the whole point. you know, it's i thought it's been what i would urge and i have said this since it's been announced, is rachel reeves should pull the ultimate rabbit out of a hat at the budget and surprise everybody at the despatch box and go, do you know what? we're a sensible, grown up government. i have heard you all loud and clear and we are not going to do this. i agree with you. and that would i think that would be fantastic. politics would win a lot of plaudits back, and would be would be great. >> i think. >> i think. >> well it certainly would be better than not doing that now, but i think people will see through that, you know, labour, do this, do this all the time. >> they've i've certainly seen it in local government. they say right, we're going to close the library. oh no, no we're not going to close the library. we've saved the library. and that's how they try and spin it.

but this has hit too many people too hard. even if they backtrack now, people aren't going to forget this. >> i think she could have got away with it if she'd set her means tested limit. say every pensioner who pays tax at 40% or above. sorry, we can't afford to give you that at the moment, but to do it for the 90% or so, it's the so—called bottom decile only that are spared is just horrendously not reveal things. >> isn't it like to not reveal the results of an impact assessment to try? it appears to try to fudge exactly where that donated money went to and to try to wriggle out of telling us all a little bit about it. it is that perception of deception, and i noted you i think you quoted starmer in your intro saying no report is on my desk or something. >> it was a classic non—denial denial that guy is shifty. and i think that's that's the number one impression most normal people will have got it . people will have got it. >> shifty starmer, you can't

believe i probably have to at this point, say i imagine keir starmer would deny that he is shifty, but i was going to say don't. >> i don't think he's shifty. i think he's a lawyer. and an argument could be made that actually it's the same thing. but the point is, i think genuinely, because he's so lawyerly, it's the lawyer within him that he as far as he's concerned, he hasn't broken any rules. and that's true. he's he's declared all this. >> and by the way, he now what he doesn't what he doesn't understand clearly are those in number 10. >> and those around him don't realise the political optics of taking a little bit of money away from grandma and granddad that need it, but looking like to the joe public that you're raking in 150 grand worth of gifts and presents, but that's that's true. >> and again, it's a good point. look, again, this is this is a vitally important thing to say. i know keir starmer appeared to be a little bit late declaring, i think some of the stuff, but thatis i think some of the stuff, but that is in the grand scheme of things. all right. not the end of the world, but it's not ideal of the world, but it's not ideal. i mean, he had a massive p0p ideal. i mean, he had a massive pop at the tories for doing the same thing. so there is that element of hypocrisy there. it's not like the labour party, from what we know at the moment, have

consistently been been doing things like breaking loads of rules. i think it's more a case of, well, there's the there's the moral question to this isn't there? and there's the, there's there? and there's the, there's the question of whether or not you should be doing this and the question of hypocrisy as well . question of hypocrisy as well. the thing that really is getting me and we simply do not know an answer for this. we're going to have to move on now, unfortunately. but the thing we do not know the answer to about is, is what have these people been getting for their money? so when it's like, lord alli, what have they been getting? well, we know he got a downing street pass didn't he. >> would another equivalent peer with similar ability who hadn't given loads of money, have magically landed himself a downing street so that that's. >> this is the follow up, isn't it? what's this saudi pr executive got for his money? maybe nothing, but we don't know anyway. right. coming up, i've got all of tomorrow's newspaper front pages coming shortly. oh, and they are having a ball at the reform party conference. i love you may , if it's quite all love you may, if it's quite all right. >> i need you begum more of that in just a few minutes. >> but first, it's emerged that several labour mps appear to be members of the so—called

anti—fascist group hope not hate. now that is what some people regard as being quite a militant organisation that accused nigel farage of using racism, islamophobia, etc. to stir up division. they've done other things as well. is it really appropriate for labour mps to sit on hope not hate board of trustees? i'm going to be joined by the former tory mayoral candidate, susan hall, who was hounded by the group on social media this year. stay tuned

hello. welcome back to patrick christys tonight on gb news. very shortly i will have all of tomorrow's newspaper front pages for you . but first, is it for you. but first, is it appropriate for labour mps to be unked appropriate for labour mps to be linked to the self—styled anti—fascist organisation called hope not hate, which claims to , hope not hate, which claims to, quote, work tirelessly to expose and oppose far right extremism? now, two of the trustees of the charitable foundation are now reportedly labour mps and it doesn't stop there. so the chairman of its trustee board is newly elected labour mp gurinder singh josan, and the government whip, anna turley, is both a director and a member of its board of trustees. now although hope not hate claims to be non—partisan, they have been responsible for waging war on several prominent tory and reform uk politicians. now

dunng reform uk politicians. now during the 2024 london mayoral elections, they distributed leaflets branding the conservative candidate susan hall, racist , conservative candidate susan hall, racist, and conservative candidate susan hall, racist , and they also hall, racist, and they also hounded her on social media. they've also accused reform uk leader nigel farage of racism, xenophobia, sexism and islamophobia to stir up division. i am joined now by the conservative member of the london assembly, susan hall. and susan, it's great to have you on the show. thank you very, very much for coming on. and i do have a little clip of some of the stuff that they did about you. not so long ago. so we're going to play a little bit of that, and then i'll get you to talk off the back of it, if that's all right. so let's take that. yeah, sure. >> do you regret your choice of words you made yesterday? >> i regret people misunderstand what i say. that's what regret. >> do you still think the 2020 election was stolen ? election was stolen? >> no. i think you're referring to an old tweet. >> are you a fan of enoch powell? >> no, of course not. >> why? i don't understand. there was a picture of him. and

you liked that tweet. >> people misunderstand what i say. that's what i regret . say. that's what i regret. >> yeah. so they really kind of went after you there. i am also at pains to say that a guy called nick lowles , who's a, called nick lowles, who's a, described as the boss of hope, not hate , apologised for a false , not hate, apologised for a false, quote, acid attack on muslim woman. tweet which, was suggested by some people might have gone some way to whipping up a bit of hatred and division dunng up a bit of hatred and division during that that period of the riots , so, susan, do you feel as riots, so, susan, do you feel as though it's appropriate for labour mps to sit on hope not hate its board of trustees? >> no . they should come out and >> no. they should come out and tell everybody what they are. for years they've had labour people running this wretched, ghastly campaign and i think some people that pay into it think that it is some form of charity, because i think they still do have charitable status . still do have charitable status. when we look at, the way mps are

in danger, these days, it does not help when you've got a company, if you like, like this, putting out tens of thousands of leaflets with my face on it, with racist written right across it, that really just just causes more and more problems for politicians. and i don't feel safe when that sort of thing happens. and it happened all the way through the mayoralty. there a disgrace. and one of the other assembly members, the assembly member for, brent and harrow, he was handing out, he said, if you go to their website and type in susan hall, you'll see a picture of him on there. he was delivering leaflets and i, i stopped him and i said, what the hell do you think you're doing? you know bloody well i'm not racist. and he said, well, yes. i said, well why are you handing out these awful leaflets? then i said, that's hope, not hate. i said, that's hope, not hate. i said, are you a member of it? he said, are you a member of it? he said, oh, i associate myself with it. of course they do. they, they use them to bad mouth

anybody on the right. and quite frankly, i know you're as fed up as i am. if you're not far left, as i am. if you're not far left, as i'm quite happy to call them now, since everybody else is far right. if you're not that you're clearly racist. that's all they say. i'm sick to death of it. quite frankly, i'm sick to death of it. >> i mean, there's been several incidents where same chap, nick lowles , who's not not here to lowles, who's not not here to defend himself, but he is, i believe, the chief executive of hope not hate . when we had that hope not hate. when we had that night where there was supposed to be 100 and odd far right riots, that never happened. and you know, there was this was based on a list that was supposedly going around on telegram groups. he came out and tweeted the next day that that list was actually a hoax, which the implication is there. that, well, was that put out there to try to try to make it look as though britain saw off the far right, which of course was all the narrative there . he also did the narrative there. he also did apologise. like i said, and was called incredibly irresponsible. after putting out a tweet which which said reports are coming in

of acid being thrown out of a car window at a muslim woman in middlesbrough. absolutely horrendous. that was seen by more than 100,000 people. that turned out to , as we understand turned out to, as we understand it, not be true now. he was accused of pouring petrol on the fire and it's this kind of group, isn't it, that i wonder whether or not labour politicians should really be associated with susan? >> no, they shouldn't . but then >> no, they shouldn't. but then you look at that tweet from wes streeting the day before the mayoral election, when he said that anybody voting for me was a white supremacist or had to be a white supremacist or had to be a white supremacist, islamophobic or a racist, the left come out with comments like this all the time, and all they say is , oh time, and all they say is, oh well, i'm sorry, i didn't mean it. and everybody forgives them . it. and everybody forgives them. and yet those of us that are centre, centre , right, we get centre, centre, right, we get lambasted constantly, with, with things from the, from the left and being called racist all the time, which is very unpleasant, l, time, which is very unpleasant, i, i call me lots of things, but do not call me racist. >> yeah. i mean, they do quite a

lot of stuff. hope not hate. i mean, some people would say. some people would say, susan, that that this is just part of democracy and that, you know, they disagree vehemently with what you have to say. they are, you know, fully signed up to various things like the refugees, welcome brigade, etc. and this is the kind of thing that that you might have to just put up with. >> look, you see, i absolutely agree. we've all got different views and we're all entitled to different views. patrick and, gb news is fabulous. you get people with different thoughts. i mean, you're on your panel. you've got the gentleman there. i don't know, but he's putting the other side to it. that's fine . and side to it. that's fine. and that's fair. what isn't right is the minute the left don't like something you're saying. they refer to you as racist and i'm sick to death of it . sick to death of it. >> yeah. and i mean, there are there are question marks as to whether or not whether or not it's possible to for groups like hope not hate to lean on corporations or lean on

advertising executives or lean on commercial directors at places as well. to say that, you know, if you do advertise with people, et cetera who do not fit our brand values or our values as a group, then you know , we as a group, then you know, we can we can come out and make your life very difficult. obviously, the likes of hope not hate would probably deny that they lean on anyone to do that. but there's different ways of applying pressure, aren't there? and you know, i do wonder whether or not labour mps should really be associated with that . really be associated with that. there is a question mark, of course, as well, susan, just finally with you about, you know, if there's a labour whip who is in charge of telling labour mps, in part, how to vote on certain things, is associated with a group like hope not hate, who who have courted criticism from numerous different people as well for being the perception , as well for being the perception, being that maybe they are at times, you know, a little bit extreme in their views. is that really a good idea to have someone behind the scenes trying to whip labour, vote labour mps to whip labour, vote labour mps to vote a certain way in that regard? >> well, no, but i think what we need to be clear of that people

like hope not hate, should not pretend that they're completely independent. they're not. i mean, if you look on their website again, they they're one of their first lines under me is we did it. hope now, hope not. hate has stopped susan hall becoming mayor of london. well, that's not an independent group that's not an independent group that that is a group working on behalf of the labour party. >> do you think that puts and do you think that put you you felt as though that put you at risk at personal risk because of some of the rhetoric putting pictures of the rhetoric putting pictures of my face and delivering them with racist written across it. >> yes, i do, don't you? i would never dream of doing that to any other politician. i think it's absolutely hateful. you know, we're not racists. and to be constantly called racist, and that's what's making more and more politicians stand back because they they're concerned about what they're going to be called. and the left wing do it all the time. and it's time we started fighting back. >> all right. well, susan, look,

thank you very much . great to thank you very much. great to have you on the show. it's susan hall there. and just talk about her own experience as she sees it with that group. hope not hate. now we did approach hope not hate directly. we also approached narinder kaur san antonio, bannau sarah owen and anna turley for comment on all of this. we did not hear back. i am just going to build a right of reply for them here, because we haven't heard back from them. this is on their website. it says hope not hate exists to challenge all kinds of extremism and build local communities. our work focuses on the organised far right, the communities who are susceptible to them, and the issues and policies which give rise to them. coming up, the very first of tomorrow's newspaper front pages have landed and i'll bring them to you. oh, and nigel farage. well, he's out and about, having a bit of fun, isn't he? i love you, stay safe. >> in spite of that, i need you, all right? >> i've got all that and much, much more coming for you very, very shortly. stay tuned . very shortly. stay tuned. >> it's monday, the king of breakfast tv is back. that's right. britain's favourite tv

host, eamonn holmes returns to britain's hottest breakfast programme, breakfast every day 6 am. only gb news. britain's news

>> all right. welcome back to patrick christys tonight and it is an incredibly spicy set of front pages that i've got in front pages that i've got in front of me here. so strap yourselves in. we go with the times. labour u—turn on freebies. big picture of angela rayner there with the king at starmer's top team will no longer accept donations. fine, we know that. let's move on to the guardian. we won't take any more clothes as free gifts at pm. they've got a picture of starmer's wife there. so the guardians decided to go off that line as well. the daily telegraph i took free clothes to, admits the chancellor. all right, so starmer and top teams say no more gifts, but the one that does it for me is on the front of the daily mail. this is

starmer hit by calamity poll, and they claim to have a picture exclusive of sue gray, starmer's chief of staff, having a bust up with number 10 aide in a downing street garden. downing street chief of staff sue gray has a heated conversation with senior whitehall mandarin michael burke. and apparently the prime minister's popularity has plunged 26 points amid this freebie row. reeves and rayner admit they got free clothes too . admit they got free clothes too. now they're all forced to stop taking them. so it's a killer poll, apparently for sir keir starmer. and what appears to be a picture story of his chief of staff having a bust up with a senior whitehall mandarin. they also say as well that another very senior whitehall mandarin, simon case, is, we believe , simon case, is, we believe, resigning or has resigned. i think , well supposedly over his think, well supposedly over his relationship with sue gray and some perceived leaks as well . some perceived leaks as well. let's stick with this front page, i mean, this, this, this to be honest with you, paints a picture of, well , carnage really

picture of, well, carnage really behind the scenes. >> well, we don't know what they're saying , do we? but also, they're saying, do we? but also, sue gray is at the centre of this nonsense. you know, the one rule about civil servants really is you should not be the story. but here she is, right in the thick of it, £170,000 a year, apparently, she was told. well look, you're earning more than the prime minister. don't you think you should take a slight pay think you should take a slight pay cut? so this story about you earning more than the prime minister doesn't arise? no, she said so . sue gray, i'm afraid, said so. sue gray, i'm afraid, is partly responsible for this plunging popularity of the labour party. >> to how concerned will patrick will he be about plunging popularity at this stage? you know, we're less than 100 days in, i think they will be very concerned because, you know, they've talked the economy down, so that's gone wrong. >> energy policy has gone wrong. two tier care, free gear care . two tier care, free gear care. it's hard to see where the good news is coming from. and i think this is really interesting because, you know, the tories are still marooned on the mid 20s in the polls and having their navel gazing labour i

think, is heading for similar territory. so this is where nigel farage and the path, you know, the home run path that could see him being a contender for, for downing street. it could work because it's always said first past the post will will penalise a party like reform. but if no other party is over 25% in the polls, if you score a 26%, suddenly first past the post will tumble you in lots and lots of seats. and i think things are set fair for reform in the local elections. in any by elections that come up . and i by elections that come up. and i think, you know, labour will find this a real shocking thing. yes. they've got a huge majority. they have several years. but but once the skids are under you, it's not impossible to turn it around. margaret thatcher did in her first term, partly because of the falklands war and the economy turning around. but but if the economy doesn't turn around, i don't think keir starmer's likeable and i think they are on. they are on the

skids. >> does this paint a picture for you of what's going on behind the scenes here? i mean it is just a still image. i imagine it says turn to page six. i imagine there's more on page six of the daily mail. so we're to off we are to wait and see first thing in the morning, won't we? however you know, it does look as though there's a bit of a row going on, you know, and it's also the fact that this has got out there, isn't it? that's the other side to this. you know, there's a picture that's been allowed to have been taken in the downing street garden. it's, it seems, you know, of a row between a top , the chief of between a top, the chief of staff and a top civil servant . i staff and a top civil servant. i mean, that's that's not it's not goodif mean, that's that's not it's not good if, you know, essentially a few weeks into into office, is it. >> i think i'm intrigued at how they've managed to get such a good shot, actually, from the, you know, full props to the photographer, i think, you know , photographer, i think, you know, for me, this is a bit of a storm in a teacup. you're telling me people don't have arguments every day in number 10, and it isn't very tense at the top levels of government. i, you know, i, i don't think this is anything to be too worried about. i think the poll is very interesting because it's to suggest that keir starmer was ever popular. and i don't say

this, i really don't say this to have a dig. i said for two years leading up to the election, i never felt that labour were 20 points ahead. i always thought the tories were 20 points behind and i think we saw with turnout and i think we saw with turnout and the real thin layer of support that labour got, it was a huge protest vote of we do not like this. 14 year unpopular incumbent tory government anymore, but can he turn this round? >> you know it is early days and if look , if i was doing keir if look, if i was doing keir starmer's spin for him, i would be saying i've got all the bad decisions out of the way early. you know, the expenses were new to government. i know we were in opposition for a while, but we're new to government. gosh, it is a bit harder than we thought it is actually. but we'll get to grips with it. you know, i'd be saying stuff like that, which, by the way, they're not saying. so, you know, but, you know, 26 points, they could in a couple of months time. do you see a do you see a way back for him from this? >> there'll be peaks and troughs. there always is. polls go troughs. there always is. polls 9° up troughs. there always is. polls go up and down and i know that's a very generic politician thing to say, i don't think saying it's going to get worse did him any favours. and actually the

one thing that i think would really help and where labour may struggle is rachel reeves. i think bad fiscal rules , how we think bad fiscal rules, how we are going to i'm no economist. right you know, but in a in a totally layman's terms, i don't understand how you cut your way to growth and what we seem to be doing is putting forward an almost 2015 esque austerity type small package without apparently taxing people, which, you know, i don't think they're being totally truthful on, and without borrowing to invest. i think you compare this to 1997, tony blair was very fortunate in that he inherited quite a healthy economy. it just sort of started to turn a corner in 1997. >> that budget is we don't have that, but that budget. i mean, we could be seeing all sorts of headunes we could be seeing all sorts of headlines after that budget. so you know, those consumer confidence statistics today, people are terrified about what is coming in this budget. >> i'm worried sick about it. everyone i speak to is worried sick about it. and that's why nobody's shopping. nobody's buying. nobody's investing . buying. nobody's investing. everything's a disaster. she is

talking the economy down. i mean , talking the economy down. i mean, no, you don't tax your way to growth either. that's the other thing. and if people think they're not going to have any money in their pockets left at the end of every month, they are not going to be boosting the economy. there will be no growth. >> exactly. all right. look, when i come back, it's a bit pressed for time. we're going to have the next tranche of newspapers to get ourselves stuck into. and. but i'm also going to be showing you. yeah. all right. nigel farage has been having a great time at the reform conference. there's a video of that coming your way. but isn't this also just a little bit sickening? >> hello, president harris ? yeah . >> oh whoopsie. he just got it right. a little mistake on my part. i'll

reform are currently having quite a good time. literally right now as we speak, they had beer lanyards, so you could literally put your pint in a lanyard and carry it around your own neck at that conference. i know right? but anyway, now the party's in full swing. you're just too good to be true, nigel. >> we can't take our eyes off of you . can't get to the. you. can't get to the. >> oh, that looks like someone's someone's. he's hailed them. nigel farage has hailed them. >> look at that. oh my gosh. >> look at that. oh my gosh. >> i mean, it does look as if. have a good time, patrick. you know, is this something that they should be, you know, is this the party that's having the most fun at the moment? >> yes. high energy. does it matter? having fun just looks high energy. it looks like they've got a story to tell and they're on the up. so all good. >> farage always knew how to party, didn't he? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> no comment. yeah >> no comment. yeah >> someone who survived a few proper lunches there, i think. but is that, you know, when you see that i suppose from a labour

perspective, you know, is that because if labour are, are maybe moving slightly away from some of their working class roots, it could be argued, it could also be argued that maybe reform might sweep some of that up . might sweep some of that up. >> i think there's totally a target for them, and i've said before, i think reform are our biggest threat at the moment. isn't the tories are flailing around like a fish out of water trying to decide which way they want to go, and i'll be intrigued. i'm heading up to liverpool tomorrow. i will be intrigued how it will go. i actually think even before you know nigel having a lot of fun, i think it'll be boring because when you're in power, there's only so much you can trail because you're not going to be announcing policies for an election or, you know, lots of potentially exciting stuff . potentially exciting stuff. starmer, i think, should make a couple of jokes, though, about this stuff that's gone on this week in his speech and try and smooth it over a bit all right. >> we will we will wait and see. it's time to reveal today's greatest briton and union jackass. now can be quite snappy with this. so, suzanne, i'll start with your greatest britain, please. >> so it's the free speech union for standing up for people who face the threat of being cancelled or branded criminals.

you know, people who before now didn't have a voice or much legal representation unless they were very rich. they've been backing a friend of mine recently and i'm very grateful for them. good stuff. >> okay, patrick. >> okay, patrick. >> well, i'd like to nominate richard tice because of his, willingness to stand aside for nigel's quite capricious return to the front line. and seeing the bigger picture. and i think their conference today kind of vindicates what he did. so the supporting guy being the greatest briton on this occasion, all right. >> good start from both of you there. go on then. >> i'm doing great. manchester mayor andy burnham, he's going to be the first mayor, he's asking rachel reeves for some money to set up a housing first program. the first in the uk, which has been trialled and used in finland and is all but eradicated homelessness. so i hope rachel reeves gives him the money in the budget. well there we go. >> brilliant stuff. okay, i have gone for the free speech union for today. i think we could have got we could have gone for any of those though. so good choices. who's the union jackass for you? >> it's the chancellor, rachel reeves, for being a bad chancellor. frankly, national debt up to 100% of gdp.

borrowing has spiralled out of control. the third highest borrowing in a month. on record. all the massive tax hikes she's planning, completely destroying consumer confidence . disastrous. consumer confidence. disastrous. >> okay, patrick. >> okay, patrick. >> well, someone who got my goat was tom tugendhat. the tory leadership contender who said that because he was top of a poll as who was the most popular tory with liberal democrats, that means he's the right man to win back 60 liberal democrat seats that they got off the tories. well, in fact, the reason the tories lost 60 seats to the liberal democrats was because they lost a load of voters to reform and a load of others to abstain . and it was others to abstain. and it was because they weren't tory enough. they weren't. they won't win them back just by having a liberal democrat lookalike. >> yeah, exactly. go on then. >> yeah, exactly. go on then. >> my man is robert jenrick for failing for 8.5 minutes in a toe curling interview to describe what english identity really is. if you're going to come out with something, at least back it up with something. you know, we all know it's last minute england goals and mobility scooters
