3:04 am
745,000 people. that's a city. the size of leeds. and there is an additional backlog of around an additional backlog of around a quarter of a million asylum seekers who are waiting for a decision or appealing a rejection. apparently, we've overtaken germany and france so far. keir starmer has announced a load of things that weren't in his manifesto, like the winter fuel payment cuts and giving away a bit of british sovereign territory. but he hasn't done anything that was in his manifesto like this serious answer is to smash the gangs. >> we have to take those gangs down to smash the gangs that are running this vile trade. >> 973 illegal immigrants arrived on saturday alone. a record day for the year. how many channel migrants have we deported.7 i hear you ask.7 3%. deported? i hear you ask? 3%. yep. in the last six and a half years, 97% of channel migrants are still in the uk. but of course , they're all women and course, they're all women and children, aren't they ? 80% of
3:05 am
children, aren't they? 80% of them are males under the age of 40. this is according to research from facts for eu. let's have a look, shall we? at the latest crime stats. now, foreign nationals are apparently twice as likely to be arrested than brits. the arrest rate for foreign nationals averaged 22.2 per 1000 of the population, compared with 10.3 per 1000 for british citizens holding uk passports . that is, according to passports. that is, according to a telegraph analysis of figures from 26 of the 43 police forces in england and wales and census data . now across the 26 forces. data. now across the 26 forces. and i will just at this point say that's the most detail that we can possibly get because the others combined with the ministry of justice and the home office, etc, just won't give us the data. and, you know, you wonder, why don't you? but anyway, across the 26 forces, there were 140,163 non—uk national arrests over three years. that's out of a population of 2.1 million of them. it's quite high that,
3:06 am
isn't it? and here's the league table. we've got to say a big well done to the albanians. they come out on top. they are in a league of their own. 101 illegal albanian migrants were sentenced to more than 300 years in jail in three months. at the end of last year, the kosovans have really outdone themselves. they're in second. it's a shock entry, actually, in third. really ? overperforming it's the really? overperforming it's the vietnamese. and then we've got the algerians, jamaicans, eritreans, iraqis and the somalis. i think the somalis will probably be a bit disappointed with that result, to be honest with you. but to top it all off, we are worse off financially per capita as well, so it can now be said, i think, with certainty that the open border, mass migration, refugees welcome bleeding heart liberals are just wrong. wrong , wrong. are just wrong. wrong, wrong. let's get our thoughts. my panel this evening on daily express columnist carole malone, journalist and broadcaster benjamin butterworth, and the former chairman of the conservative party. it is sir jake berry and carole. so one in every 100 people in britain is
3:07 am
here illegally. it's astonishing. >> it is more than astonishing. >> it is more than astonishing. >> and, you know, starmer is the man who said, you know, pre—election that he was going to he had a ready made plan to get rid of the backlog. he had a ready made plan to stop the boats and that his border security force was going to stop the boats. it's not even up and running yet. he hasn't even. no one wants to take the job because they know it's a poisoned chalice. so all of the things he said he was going to do, he hasn't even begun to do yet to try and stop immigration. and you know, when you think about it, you know, he has absolutely no deterrent . he has absolutely no deterrent. he has made this country. he's he's put out a flag that says to all, come here. there is nothing. and no one that's going to stop you. and, you know, you think about it, rwanda was a deterrent. it was beginning to look like a deterrent. but everyone in the labour government did everything to prevent that from working. they took it to the courts. they tookit they took it to the courts. they took it to the house of lords. they tried to stop the migrant borders. they tried to stop migrants being put up on military sites. they did everything to stop the tories deaung everything to stop the tories dealing with illegal immigration. and now here they
3:08 am
are. and it's this country is a mess. these figures are beyond shock. >> jake, i'll come to you on this. so 80% of them are males under the age of 40 coming across the channel fighting age, of which of which we have been able to deport a grand total of 3%. now, if you factor in some people who might have just got lost as french fishermen on the way here into that, then realistically , we've basically realistically, we've basically deported absolutely nobody. these are not needy women and children. or are they? >> well , my view children. or are they? >> well, my view is there's no such thing as an asylum seeker from france. they are not fleeing persecution in france, in my view, as none of them should be coming and we should send them all back to france. that's my base position. but actually these figures, which are extraordinary, you think about it. you walk down your street and you see 100 people. one of them is going to be in this country illegally. that's just mind blowing. but these figures are actually much worse than that, because they don't include anyone who's crossed illegally into the country, because when they arrive here, they immediately claim asylum. it doesn't include the asylum
3:09 am
backlog, so it would be much worse. it's probably nearer1 in 80 or 1 in 90, and it's 80 or1 in 90, and it's absolutely extraordinary. and just think back on the conservative party needs to hold its hands up as well here, because they've been in government before . keir starmer, government before. keir starmer, no one voted for this. and that's why the british people are so angry . they look at it, are so angry. they look at it, they say my country is changing beyond all recognition. i never gave you any permission to do this on my behalf and behalf of my community. and that really, really angry. and those figures show that they're right to be angry. >> just just before ben carson, there's a really important figure there. the former border security force boss, a guy called tony smith. he said the figures that are that are here illegally, 745,000, he said double that. he said there are they we have been banging the now. we have been banging the drum for a very long time on this show to try to get accurate data released, which they do hold on crime by nationality. but more importantly, as far as
3:10 am
i'm concerned, crime by by asylum status. and they just won't give us that . the won't give us that. the telegraph have managed to compile a list, i think it was of 26 of the 43 police forces or whatever it is. so that's the best they can do out of it. but it's pretty grim reading, isn't it? and, you know, we are less safe, right, as a result of this. >> but, you know, nobody should be here illegally. that's not an argument about what you think immigration levels should be. >> and i think they should be high. but the point is, you know, the fact it's no surprise that albanians and kosovans, which is much of a muchness at the top because they come here for organised crime, albanians could legitimately come here on economic terms, but they come illegally because they want to be part of illegal networks. and that shows, frankly, that the approach of trying to smash the gangsis approach of trying to smash the gangs is the right one, because they're operating in tandem to get to the country and how they behave once they're in this country. >> but how are they going to do it, ben? because the home office have said today they've already disrupted the supply chain of gangs, have they? because if they have, we'd know about it a record day on saturday. well, exactly. so you know, how would we know? >> well, clearly they haven't,
3:11 am
but they have appointed a new person to be in charge of this. that has happened. >> they've had a meeting. it's all going to be fine. sir keir has had a meeting. >> i mean, it's rich from you because there are there are 745,000 illegals in the country. they came under your watch , they came under your watch, mate. yes. but, you know, the fact is the audacity of james. can i just say the audacity of james cleverly, home secretary of robert jenrick and immigration minister, to say they've got a problem with it? i'd sooner take a driving lesson from stevie wonder than advice on immigration from the labour party did everything in its power to thwart everything the tories did to stop him. >> and you know that they voted against the rwanda bill. i was there, they voted against it. every single time. and let's look at keir starmer's approach. let's look at keir starmer's approach to smashing the gangs, because there's recently a huge success for the home office. they managed to disrupt a people smuggling gang that had allegedly made millions of pounds. they'd been responsible for 300 crossings and cooperating with the french. our good friends, they sent them back to france and the french took them to court. guess what they said? come back in a month's time and we'll sentence
3:12 am
you. now, i'm really shocked at this because obviously these people smuggling gangs, they must be they must be salt of the earth people, mustn't they? released. they all did. well, half of them disappeared. half of them turned up to be sentenced. and the french said, not satisfied with that, they said, well, the half of you that turned up, you come back in another month and then we'll send you and bring you there, the people. keir starmer says he's cooperating with it won't work. you need a proper deterrent. send them to rwanda. >> where do the home office get off? not telling us how many illegal immigrants are here? they're telling us it's none of our know they're here, do they? but how dare they not publish figures? they don't do that when the people of this country are paying the people of this country are paying for them. we need to know what we're paying for. i mean, we don't. >> i do remember a story from about six months ago that something like 15,000 people had disappeared that were on a waiting lists, and they couldn't find them. and they tried to explain, they tried to bracket a lot of that as as, as these poor missing child migrants and unfortunately, look, in my view, the reality would be a lot of those people were saying that they were children initially and had seamlessly managed to find their way into the black economy
3:13 am
and, you know, been been out and about there as, as so often is the case. >> but there is a catalogue there of absolutely, completely and utterly stats. so we are now the illegal migrant capital of europe. we've had a record day in the channel. we've got this migrant crime league table, which makes you wince, and people twice as likely to be arrested if you are foreign born than if you are british. nothing is being done about that at all. the case, surely, for this refugees welcome brigade has just been utterly shattered. >> well, i think what the british people want is stop putting them up in a four star hotel, stop giving them £45 a week to live on. stop paying for their legal fees when they come into the no other country in europe does that, and that's why we're surprised that we're top of the league table. well, no wonder where the softest touch in europe. well, that's what carol says about deterrent. there is no deterrent once you aboush there is no deterrent once you abolish one, for sure. >> benjamin, can i ask you, do you do you understand why there is this kind of undercurrent of potential social unrest when people who are british see this
3:14 am
stuff ? stuff? >> well, many of those people that went out and rioted who were committing crimes of their own so far more likely to be arrested than about the issue at hand, not riots that happened to those people, don't know the status of the people in front of them. all they see often is their ethnicity or maybe their religion. now, i think one of the major pull factors, and we know this from the research, is that there is a massive black economy in this country of these people, illegal people are making a living. if we had gone for id cards that mean that when you try and get work, when you try and get access to services, it would block them. having any of those rights. i think it's time the libertarian fanboys drop their opposition . but benjamin. >> but way more than that, the pull factor is way more than that. they come here, they get loads of free stuff. they get free housing. free education is not a lot. hang on . free not a lot. hang on. free housing, free healthcare, free education, free come on, free everything. >> and by the way, benjamin, we already have a system. you're not legally allowed to work in the uk without a national insurance number. if you're here
3:15 am
illegally, you can't get a national insurance number. why do you need an id card? >> because that would make it so much more difficult. and there are lots of employers. these people are criminals. >> it doesn't matter what you do. we shouldn't let them in for criminals. >> most comparable companies have id cards and it helps them and they have no has no plan to deal with any of this. >> and we know that. we know he has it because he said he did have and nothing's been put into operation. >> this is it. we'd i'd have felt more comfortable that he was going to do something about it if he'd left it out of his manifesto. yes. because there is so far we've just seen things that he never mentioned. they're getting rolled out. toot sweet, aren't they? that's why we don't need to recall parliament to give away a bit of british sovereign territory. oh, we can freeze pensioners to death. that's absolutely fine. but yeah, if it was in the manifesto, it doesn't look like it's happening anyway. lively start. thank you very much. talking of giveaways, it's time for the great british one and your chance to win the equivalent of having an extra £3,000 in your bank account every month for the next year. a whopping £36,000 in tax free cash. and here are all the details that you will need to make that money yours. >> this is your chance to win a £36,000 secret salary in the

3:17 am
fingers crossed for you if you do want to enter that now. still to come, please change your mind . to come, please change your mind. >> you're killing all people and thatis >> you're killing all people and that is not right. >> earlier today i went to a massive protest about the winter fuel payment. pensioners. they're furious with labour and even starmers union paymasters are getting in on the action too. i'll bring you what they had to say to me in just a few minutes. but first, a shock. new survey has revealed that 1 in 10 young people are sympathetic towards hamas, and only 39% of 18 to 24 year olds believe the reports of october 7th survivors. does britain have a home—grown islamist terror problem? going head to head on this now is a member of the revolutionary communist party, fred weston, and the senior research fellow at the henry jackson society, barak sinner. don't miss it
3:22 am
than 1100 israelis. but a more than 1100 israelis. but a shock new survey has revealed that 1 in 10 young brits are sympathetic to hamas. the report by the campaign against anti—semitism also found that 1 in 8, 18 to 24 year olds does not believe the reports from survivors of the october 7th attacks. it comes after tens of thousands of pro—palestine protesters marched through london over the weekend, including the former scottish first minister humza yousaf. now, some protesters even brandishing banners in the support of the terror group hezbollah. police eventually made 17 arrests. tonight i am asking, does britain have a terror problem? let me know your thoughts. go to gbnews.com/yoursay. tweet me @gbnews. while you're there, go and vote in our poll online right now going head to head on this hour. member of the revolutionary communist party. it's fred weston and the senior research fellow at the henry jackson society, barak sinner shapps. thank you very much. great to have you both in the
3:23 am
studio. as well. barak, i'll start with you. when you look at stats like that, especially amongst the younger people, do you think we do have a home—grown terror problem there? >> i think it's i think we have to first understand the incubator for what ultimately is terrorism. >> so when you've got social media, which is the virtual equivalent of people graffitiing on public toilets, right on the back of that foreign funding, foreign sponsored disinformation efforts by iran, by russia. and then you have woke progressive serves at that to the mix that want to strip back the institutions of the country. they hate the identity of the country. right. and this isn't only in britain, it's across the west, us and europe . then you've west, us and europe. then you've got an incubator not for only useful idiots, but for terrorism as well. >> okay. strong start, fred. you know , do you have any concerns know, do you have any concerns that 1 in 10 of 18 to 24 year
3:24 am
olds basically support hamas? >> well, talking about disinformation , is it disinformation, is it disinformation, is it disinformation to state that 42,000 palestinians have been killed in 12 months? is it disinformation to say that 100,000 have been injured? of which of which 25% will remain permanently but you're not answering the question. >> you just talk about something else, which is fine. but that's not why you're here. so do you have a concern that 1 in 10 young people are sympathetic towards hamas? >> i don't have a concern because i don't believe that 10% of the youth are terrorists. what the truth is, a large number of young people are very angry at what they are seeing or what they're seeing on the tv screens every day . crimes are screens every day. crimes are being committed in gaza , lebanon being committed in gaza, lebanon and throughout the middle east by a state which, rather than negotiate , wants war. even negotiate, wants war. even netanyahu , the latest behaviour, netanyahu, the latest behaviour, all his behaviour throughout the whole year, has been to do everything possible to avoid
3:25 am
negotiations, to free the hostages , to the point that even hostages, to the point that even you were showing it on your screens. in israel, a huge number of people protesting at the fact that netanyahu behaves in a way which is not going to get the hostages released. >> so you i'll come back to you on this, but how do you react to that, that when we see these figures, that doesn't necessarily translate into the idea that 1 in 10 young people could essentially go to on be terrorists or terrorist sympathisers? >> no, but they will hold the views that will serve as a social context for terrorism to emanate from. so, you know, when you have something very, very absurd, like queers for palestine. right? and so you're going to be having gays on the left that aren't necessarily going to be doing terrorism , but going to be doing terrorism, but they are going to be sharing the same views as islamists. they are going to be sharing the same views as islamists . that would. >> okay. and i do wonder as
3:26 am
well, fred, when we see this age demographic. so there are some other stats as well. actually, i think the henry jackson society actually conducted these a good few months ago, which appeared to suggest that those born in britain were more likely to have extremist views than people who had come from abroad here, from middle eastern countries. does that not concern you? maybe a point that potentially multiculturalism or integration there has failed ? there has failed? >> no it doesn't. you see, i look at the bigger picture. what is causing this scenario to go back to the situation. you can't discuss this without discussing what's happening in the middle east. you cannot discuss it without looking at the crimes that are being committed there. you can't discuss it without considering that first sunak and the tories , and now labour and the tories, and now labour and starmer are supporting the war of netanyahu. they are watching
3:27 am
thousands be butchered in the middle east. thousands of palestinians being killed, hospitals being bombed , schools hospitals being bombed, schools being destroyed. now they're spreading the war to lebanon. and netanyahu has said we will do to lebanon what we did to gaza. but how do you how do you expect young people to be sympathetic towards hamas? >> because it's okay, obviously, to be sympathetic towards the plight of people who are suffering and who people like yourself, you know, feel are being unfairly treated and killed. but it's another thing to be sympathetic towards an actual terror group, isn't it? but listen , hamas are but listen, hamas are terrorists, aren't they? >> hamas? listen, we're we're revolutionary communists. i'm a communist. i don't believe in individual terror as a method. i don't believe i don't, but is that what hamas are? >> terrorists? yeah. >> terrorists? yeah. >> hamas has used its methods, which we don't agree with at all. but are they terrorists? >> you see, this is the same kind of response that james corbyn had. jeremy corbyn, jeremy corbyn had that he was unable to call hamas out for being what they are now. the
3:28 am
people who are protesting en masse , they don't care about, masse, they don't care about, they don't really care about the palestinians because they don't care about the genocide that's taking place in sudan. they don't care about syria, and they hate jews more than they care about the palestinians. so it's just really an excuse. none of them are advocating for hamas to release terrorists, to release hostages. none of them do that. none of them say, look what the irgc are doing, what hamas is doing, what hezbollah is doing are crimes against humanity. no one cares about hamas using human shields and they also don't care about the over 60,000 israelis that are that have been refugees from their own home. yeah. >> so if just out of interest, if someone wants to join the revolutionary communist party and they said to you when they were, i don't know if you have membership papers or whatever they said to you as they were signing on . oh, by the way, i
3:29 am
signing on. oh, by the way, i support hamas. >> well, i would discuss with them and say why we don't support those methods. we don't support those methods. we don't support those methods. but you see, this discussion is designed to not concentrate on the real issues, because i just heard somebody here say people on those demonstrations hate jews. i've been on many of those demonstrations. i didn't see any jew haters. i actually were on the demonstration with many jews who support the cause of the palestinian people. it's completely false. the picture that you're depicting, what i will say is that whilst whilst i do think it is completely false to suggest that every single person there, which i'm not sure you're trying to do every single person there is a rabid anti—semite. >> you're fine . absolutely. and >> you're fine. absolutely. and i mean there is jew hatred. and in fact, at 10:00 we're actually playing a bit of that out on television so people can see what happens. so . so look, you what happens. so. so look, you can't you can't have it both ways. either of you really in, in that regard. but you say the real issue, look, i suppose it depends what you think the real issue is. now for me personally here, living here, i would argue that the most pressing issue for me right now is whether or not
3:30 am
we have a tidal wave of home—grown terrorists who are about to come through. so that's why i'm focusing on these 1 in 10 young people here in britain sympathetic towards hamas. you obviously don't really think that will translate into no such tidal wave. >> there is no such tidal wave when you talk about terrorism. i can ask a question . is it can ask a question. is it terrorism to explode? walkie talkies and pages to people in lebanon? is it is it it's not terrorism. >> i was actually very. >> i was actually very. >> so you think that's not terrorism? >> i think until now netanyahu has been quite soft. i think now he's now finding his stride. i think it's a fantastic thing when you've got thousands of hezbollah members that have their beepers and walkie talkies being, you know, blown up. i just was hoping that it wasn't only in their hand , but they only in their hand, but they were holding it against their heads that you're supporting the war. >> fantastic. >> fantastic. >> you're supporting netanyahu just like i would be supportive against striking isis. i would be supportive of, you know , the
3:31 am
be supportive of, you know, the dismantling of the scenes of children being blown to bits. >> don't bother you at all. >> don't bother you at all. >> any terrorist infrastructure, whether it be hamas, whether it be hezbollah, whether it be irgc. i would like to see them all targeted. and i question your moral compass, my moral compass, my moral compass. you don't at all. if you draw an equivalence between terrorists and civilians, what israel is doing is terror on a grand scale against the 32,000 palestinians have been butchered . but even have been butchered. but even thatis have been butchered. but even that is disinformation. >> it's disinformation. >> it's disinformation. >> now, you don't place that in a context of who those 42,000 palestinians charles rae can i just add one little detail? >> five seconds west bank, right, right. armed groups of settlers terrorised palestinians to expel them from their land. they're stealing their land now. >> guys, guys, we're going to knock it. we're going to knock it on the head. it's a time issue. it's not a comment on either of you two performance. we're going to have to move on,
3:32 am
i'm afraid. but thank you and thank you. we asked for a head to head. we certainly got one, no doubt. one that will probably continue into the green room. but coming up reform uk have today put the home secretary, yvette cooper, on notice. they've threatened to bring a private prosecution against the men involved in an altercation with police at manchester airport earlier this year. if the crown prosecution service decides not to proceed with the prosecutions themselves. look, do the police feel like they get enough protection and support, do you think? i'm joined by former police officer graham wettone very soon. >> but first, sir keir, please change your mind. you're killing all people and that is not right. >> that's right. earlier today, ispent >> that's right. earlier today, i spent the day at a protest over the government's winter fuel payment. cut. let me tell you, pensioners, they're not happy with keir starmer. and they're not the only ones. labour's union paymasters. they're also kicking up a fuss. i'll bring
3:36 am
welcome back. now earlier today, hundreds of pensioners gathered outside westminster calling on keir starmer to u—turn on the winter fuel payment cut that could lead to more than 4000 of britain's elderly freezing to death this winter. those , by the death this winter. those, by the way, are labour's own figures now. i went down to the protest. ispoke now. i went down to the protest. i spoke to some of them. they had some harsh words for this labour government. let's have a little look and a listen, shall we ? we? >> grandfather and i have nine grandchildren. all right . it grandchildren. all right. it won't affect me as such, but it will affect at least 2 million people. and unfortunately,
3:37 am
there'll be empty chairs around there'll be empty chairs around the christmas table. and that's not right, because grandfathers and grandmothers won't be there because of this, you know, 3 to 5000 could die this winter. and that's terrible. and they didn't let the british public know what they was going to do. and that's all wrong. >> so the fact that they didn't say they were going to do this grates. >> you can move back a little. it does. and the other thing is they haven't done any due diligence. i work for an american company. if you change something , you have to tick all something, you have to tick all the boxes and do a risk assessment. they've done nothing. they've done nothing since 17. they did a review in 17 and they said nearly 4000 would die. and it's a massive pleasure . sir keir, please pleasure. sir keir, please change your mind . you're killing change your mind. you're killing all people. and that is not right. >> and you've got quite a stark poster here. i can't help but notice. talk me through it.
3:38 am
>> well, i was trying to find something that i wanted to encompass. all my thoughts because i'm quite concerned not just for our generation who've lost out big time, because we're like the sandwich generation, that all these new things were brought in during our lifetime. but our next generation, like our grandchildren. what's going to be left for them, you know, because it seems to me that, i mean, i talk to my children and they think there's going to be no state pension when they retire or when they become old. but he he could easily solve the situation by taxing the rich, which he seems reluctant to do. and he prefers to take the money from the vulnerable population, which of course are vulnerable elderly people that have worked all their lives. many of them
3:39 am
being in ill health now because of the jobs they were forced to do. and particularly women who were really affected by the change in the law , the 1950s change in the law, the 1950s women, i mean, all of us. i think i can quite honestly say have lost £50,000, which is honestly, i think they're out to kill pensioners to be quite honest. we're a drain on the nhs apparently. you know, they can't wait to get us out of our hospital. there's no johnson didn't bring in any care plan like he promised to do in 2019. and that never happened . so and that never happened. so basically, the more of us they can get rid of, you basically, the more of us they can get rid of , you know, the can get rid of, you know, the less have got to pay out. so they see us as an easy target. >> and let me tell you, that is just a snapshot of some of the things that were said to me at that protest. now, worryingly for sir keir starmer, the protest was organised by the unite trade union. that's labour's biggest trade union backer. the boss of unite, sharon graham, has been an
3:40 am
outspoken critic of the prime minister's attitude towards pensioners and she actually spoke to me a little earlier today. >> the decision that's been made by labour is totally and utterly wrong. how a labour government can choose to pick the pocket of pensioners and leave the super rich totally untouched is beyond me. people don't understand it. what we need to do is have a u—turn. they are trying to be better managers of the economy and what we're looking for is a new vision. and what we need to look at is get those people who've been at the back of the queue for 14 years and get them to the front of the queue. workers, communities and pensioners, they've made the wrong decision and they need to reverse it. >> well. the department for work and pensions spokesperson said we are committed to supporting pensioners with millions set to see their state pension rise by up to £1,700. this parliament, through our commitment to the triple lock, over a million pensioners will still receive the winter fuel payment and our drive to boost pension credit take up has already seen a 152% increase in claims. many others will also benefit from the £150 warm home discount to help with
3:41 am
energy bills over winter, while our extension of the household support fund will help with the cost of food and heating bills, i would just add to that very quickly that i think, given the topic that we spoke about at the start of the hour, about the amount of people we have here illegally in britain, that presumably we're all paying for, you know, you don't have to look very far, do you? there's another way of funding some pensioners this winter. but talking of funding, my fundraiser for the friends of the elderly has now hit two and more than £220,000. so thank you to every single one of you that has donated, ranging from £1,500. someone gave all the way down to like £2.50. it really doesn't matter if you've got it then please, please, please give us a little bit of money to help with the elderly this winter. we're so close now to hitting the £260,000 and to get us over the £260,000 and to get us over the line , it's time for me to the line, it's time for me to undertake another challenge. this time i'm going to do a cold water swim. i think it's time for me to get cold, isn't it? you can go to justgiving.com forward slash page, forward slash, save our seniors if you
3:42 am
want to donate. but in terms of me doing this freezing cold swim, i want you to tell me where i should do it. go to gb views gb news .uk with your suggestions. where should i do my cold water swim? i'm going to pick my location later this week. i'm going to get in the water, get as cold as possible, show a little bit of solidarity in one way that i possibly can with pensioners who will be absolutely baltic. unfortunately in their living rooms. this winter, in no small part because of winter fuel payment cuts. if you do want to donate, go to justgiving.com forward slash page forward slash. save our seniors. coming up commemorations have taken place around the world for the one year anniversary of hamas's barbaric october seventh attacks, but 17 people were arrested at a pro—palestine rally in london this weekend thanks to incidents like this. the leader is seriously bebe three freedom fighters and finish. i have got some
3:43 am
absolutely astonishing footage for you that points to the fact that maybe britain has become a safe haven for islamist extremism. i'll tackle that at ten, but first, coming up, reform uk have today said that they will bring a private prosecution against the men involved in an altercation with police at manchester airport earlier this year. if the crown prosecution service decides not to proceed with prosecutions themselves, do police feel protected enough? stay tuned
3:46 am
for. welcome back to patrick christys tonight . now nigel christys tonight. now nigel farage's reform uk party today announced plans to launch a private prosecution of the men involved in that altercation with police at manchester airport earlier this year. so back in july, farage himars was struck on the head by a firearms officer at manchester airport after he and his brother ahmad were arrested for assault and
3:47 am
affray. the clip sparked protests in manchester and rochdale, leading to the officer being placed under criminal investigation for assault . a investigation for assault. a second officer was also placed under criminal investigation in relation to the incident, but then a second leaked clip subsequently emerged, which showed the brothers allegedly throwing punches at the police. well. in a press conference earlier today, nigel farage said that his party would give the police some time to consider that his party would give the police some time to consider prosecuting the two brothers, prosecuting the two brothers, but if criminal charges weren't but if criminal charges weren't brought, they would begin their brought, they would begin their own private proceedings. well, own private proceedings. well, i'm joined now by former met i'm joined now by former met police officer graham wettone police officer graham wettone graham. look, i don't want to graham. look, i don't want to discuss. i can't really discuss discuss. i can't really discuss the manchester airport incident the manchester airport incident in any specific detail in light in any specific detail in light system. the of where we're at with it. but of where we're at with it. but in general, do the police feel in general, do the police feel they are getting enough they are getting enough protection and support? do you protection and support? do you think ? think ? think? >> i think generally they don't. think? >> i think generally they don't. i think there's been a gradually i think there's been a gradually over the years, there's been a over the years, there's been a decline in support for policing, decline in support for policing, sometimes through the courts, sometimes through the courts, sometimes through the courts, sometimes through the courts,
3:48 am
sometimes through the justice sometimes through the justice system. assaults on police officers have increased. i think there's over 50,000 last year and that equates through across the uk. so that equates to one police officer being assaulted every ten minutes, which for me is unacceptable in a civilised society. i think that's completely unacceptable. something needs to be done. i think we need a more timely and quick justice system, and police do need more support from the justice system and from the courts. >> we had a case quite
3:49 am
courts. >> we had a case quit> we had a case quit> it has an effect on them. i'll speak to serving officers still regularly. they on a daily basis, and you've only got to look at the stop and search figures and they have dropped in certain areas. and it's because it's because officers are now reluctant and it's a proactive tactic. it's you're not you're not empowered to do it because of a call or an incident. mostly it's something you do because you want to do your job. so why would you want to do your job? if you think you're then going to be put under investigation, restricted from going out on patrol and it may be prosecuted for something, so it has had an impact, some impact on stop and search figures and the approach by some officers to carry out that sort of proactive work of policing. and they're almost becoming becoming almost similar to the fire service where they deal with the calls. they'll answer the calls that come in from the public, they'll deal with all the incidents as professionally as they always do. but to actually go out and actively look to prevent crime, which is one of their prime objectives, has almost is almost going away from policing. they're just going to respond to
3:50 am
calls and won't go out and proactively look to do things like stop and search because of these incidents. >> but it makes us all less safe. this is this is the bigger picture. you know, if people don't back police and police don't back police and police don't feel protected, then actually they feel less inclined, maybe to protect us, they feel less able to protect us. they don't want to say that they don't want to, but feel less able to protect us. so, so, so, so we all suffer the consequences. and recently, again, we saw firearms officers putting their weapons down, handing their weapons down because they felt as though if they were ever actually called to make that split second decision, which they are highly trained to do, and they do that and they might again find themselves on for a murder charge or something. >> yeah. and that's an issue as well that that's currently ongoing, which we are not going to discuss in other cases. but it is an issue within policing that it's right that they are held to account for their actions and decisions, but they should be held to account in the context of the incident that's taking place, the information they got at the time, because what's happened is these incidents are then sort of reviewed with hindsight, with the benefit of all the
3:51 am
information, not from the officers training , their officers training, their experience, their understanding of what was happening at the time. and i think that's what police officers want. they want to be judged on a fair and balanced process and not basically on a very slow, methodical, let's look at everything that was happening at the time. you can only go by what the officer you make your decisions when you're using force by what you know at that time, what you're honestly held. belief is at that moment in time and what's facing you. and you make that decision honestly and truthfully. and all police officers want us to be to be that's, that's one of the concern want for policing that's, that's one of the concern want us policing that's, that's one of the concern want us to licing that's, that's one of the concern want us to lici to be judged on that basis . officers want us to be to be judged on that basis . judged on that basis. >> the other aspect, and again, judged on that basis. >> the other aspect, and again, i'm keen to not comment i'm keen to not comment specifically on any individual specifically on any individual cases taking place at the cases taking place at the moment. it's a broader point, moment. it's a broader point, right? and it's about whether or right? and it's about whether or not you think that the black and not you think that the black and white issues of policing are white issues of policing are treated, that way, or whether treated, that way, or whether there are societal pressures there are societal pressures that come into decision making that come into decision making or grief, well, we better not do or grief, well, we better not do that just in case we're seen as that just in case we're seen as racist, or if that kicks up a racist, or if that kicks up a fuss in certain communities or fuss in certain communities or something, because that's a something, because that's a problem that's not fair, is it? problem that's not fair, is it? >> no. and i think that's, >> no. and i think that's,
3:52 am
that's, that's one of the that's, that's one of the concerns for, for policing concerns for, for policing as a whole is that sometimes on some occasions and previously in my view, we've seen those decisions made, there are decisions taken because it's easier to make that decision because you're going to appease a certain certain community or part of society than actually take an honestly held decision and make a judgement based on what is what is right at the time, and for the police officer and for society as a whole. i think they have seen in the past exactly on those lines. >> yeah. that's it. it's a
3:53 am
labour ever? we've got a former labour minister on that. but next are we breeding the next generation of terrorists right here in britain? stay tuned . britain? stay tuned. >> ooh, a chilly start will give way to a lovely, warm afternoon. boxt heat pumps sponsors of weather on gb news evening. >> welcome to your latest weather update from the met office here on gb news. further heavy showers to come this evening. some places seeing some thunderstorms and some gusty winds too. the reason low pressure just sitting to the west of the uk. not really moving very far but spiralling around it. these bands of showers drifting northwards, some very heavy downpours at the moment for south wales and south—west england. we do have a met office yellow warning in place. those downpours head across the south—east. they'll be easing a little but still turning up some heavy showers over east anglia. the midlands, nonh over east anglia. the midlands, north wales and northern ireland by the end of the night. clearer
3:54 am
skies in southern scotland northern england will allow temperatures to dip to single figures, but for most a pretty mild night actually. and then tomorrow it's a case of watching more heavy showers with some brighter spells in between. may well be a fine start across east anglia, much of the south—east, but showers will quickly start to spread back in here. great start for northern ireland. some outbreaks of rain pushing north and that will spread into parts of scotland during the day, but through the central belt, probably a dry start. notice the northerly winds across northern scotland. it's been dull and damp here today. it won't be quite as wet tomorrow , but quite as wet tomorrow, but staying pretty grey and feeling cold with those winds. whereas in the south the winds are coming up from the south, bringing mild air but also bringing mild air but also bringing heavy showers again, potential for some thundery downpours , some sunny spells in downpours, some sunny spells in between but staying pretty drab across southeast scotland and northeast england. feeling cool here as well with the winds coming in from the sea , but in coming in from the sea, but in the south with a bit of sunshine we could again get 18 or 19

memorial to the october 7th victims in brighton . which is victims in brighton. which is just, like a weird thing to do, isn't it? really? there you go. there's the memorial to the people who actually died. so this isn't you know, something outside the israeli embassy or anything like this is this is people who died actually were killed, slaughtered. and he just tookit killed, slaughtered. and he just took it upon himself to just destroy it. i mean, why why would you do that? i mean, is that not open antisemitism? can you imagine doing that ? just you imagine doing that? just waking up one morning and thinking, what are you going to do today? i'm going to go and desecrate that memorial to people who died in a massacre. yeah. the met made 17 arrests. i mean, they could have clearly arrested loads more people all on one day. that was the whole thing. everything i brought you, there was one day. it's probably within a few hours of each other. the charity sector has piped up. amnesty are doing glossy promotional videos which many people feel appear to justify terrorist action against israel. don't let anyone tell you this all started on the 7th of october, 2023. >> 76 years ago, my own family were displaced during the nakba
4:08 am
of 1948, when more than 700,000 palestinians became refugees. >> it's all backed up, of course , >> it's all backed up, of course, by useful idiot himself, humza yousaf, who is facing a probe into £250,000 worth of donations made to a gaza aid agency. while members of his family were stuck in the war zone . he denies any in the war zone. he denies any wrongdoing. but the scottish government is conducting a review of the processes involved. >> we say here enough is enough issued the arrest warrant for netanyahu, get him on trial and let's hold him to account . let's hold him to account. >> there are middle eastern countries that ban public support for hamas and hezbollah, and who refuse to take refugees from gaza because they think that they might be terrorists. but right here in britain, support for hamas is growing among young people. please tell me again how multiculturalism has enriched all of our lives. let's get the thoughts of my panel let's get the thoughts of my panel. daily express columnist carole malone, journalist and
4:09 am
broadcaster benjamin butterworth, and the former chairman of the conservative party , sir jake berry. chairman of the conservative party , sirjake berry. carol, party, sirjake berry. carol, you look at that. there . we've you look at that. there. we've got support for a proscribed terror group rising amongst home—grown british born 18 to 24 year olds. what's going on? >> you know, it shocks me to my core. i mean, it makes me sick to my stomach. you know, these kids, these that are supporting hamas and hezbollah, you know , hamas and hezbollah, you know, they've never been near a war in their life. they've never suffered one jot in their pampered little lives . and yet pampered little lives. and yet they're behaving like this. you know, they haven't seen the footage that many journos have of , of, of parents footage that many journos have of, of, of parents being shot in front of their kids on october the 7th, of kids being shot in front of their parents, of the girls who were raped and mutilated and had their faces shot off by these groups that they say are freedom fighters. and it makes me sick to my stomach that kids are actually taking the side of the people who did this. god help them. if we ever get into a situation where they are subject to that of their loved ones are subject
4:10 am
to that. and it's shocking to me the lack of ignorance that we're seeing. and it's shocking what we saw on the streets at the weekend. but that's not the weekend. but that's not the weekend. we've seen it week after week after week, and the cops should be ashamed of themselves. the met police said they would not put up with anything this weekend that showed support for terrorist groups, and we've just seen it on the film, multiple examples of it. i mean, look, if anyone pitched the idea of having an event when you said at some point during that, well, look, i can guarantee that there'll be a bit of racism here. >> i can guarantee that they'll there'll be a bit of support for terrorist groups. no one in their right minds would go well. yeah, obviously that event needs to take place every other weekend in the capital city, but alas, that's where we are. >> who'd be a jew in this country today? seriously, does this point to a bigger problem, though, you know, as multiculturalism and integration failed, we've got 18 to 24 year olds now. >> 1 in 10 of them appear to support hamas. >> well, look, if you look at those figures, absolutely. it has failed. what i find so depressing about this is the prevalence of these views on university campuses here in the uk being promoted by people who
4:11 am
are some of the thought leaders that university professors, students really intelligent young people who've done well in their a—levels have gone to some of our top universities. i cannot understand how they have been duped into supporting these terrorism organisations, and it's also really depressing that particularly young jewish people here in the united kingdom feel unsafe in some of our leading academic institutions. what on earth has happened to britain when we will tolerate this on our streets? and finally, any government minister, anyone in the home office, any chief constable in the uk who says that we don't have two tier policing in this country, should watch this show tonight because it's absolutely clear what took place on the streets of london is a disgrace. and the metropolitan police stood by and let it happen. >> benjamin , look, i am aware, >> benjamin, look, i am aware, very aware of your views on this. you've got a lapel badge there as well, which is the israeli flag and the gay pride flag, i believe. so, just to try
4:12 am
to create maybe some point of difference on this, do you think it's unfair for me to say and use those incidents there as evidence that multiculturalism in britain has failed? >> well, most of these people aren't even from that part of the world, and even the ones where their families are, they tend to be young. so they're born in this country. so i don't think it's about multiculturalism. you know, it strikes me that last friday was 88 years since the cable street riots, when working class londoners stood up to defend jewish people being harassed by the british union of fascists. and 24 hours later, in 2024, you have all these people coming out to harass jews and be guilty of anti—semitism. you know , that is anti—semitism. you know, that is anti—semitism. you know, that is a depressing reflection. and i think a lot of people who are on the left, or liberal as i am, want to see things in a simple binary of oppressed and oppressor. and they think this plays into that when it is so much more complicated and carol mentioned it, but i'm one of those handful of journalists who
4:13 am
has seen the full footage that most of it filmed on gopros by hamas terrorists themselves as propaganda. and, you know, i've seen the blackened , charred seen the blackened, charred babies and the beheaded adults and, you know, and the muslims that they killed, that they knew were muslims, they didn't care. these people are utterly barbarous. and the reason why i have this lapel badge on, and the reason why i don't take that view, is because some of those people on those marches would be the very first that they would shoot down, given the chance. >> one of those girls who was raped and murdered on that day, not one of them was in a fit state to be shown to their parents because their bodies on the street, bits of their brains were being back into their heads by onlookers. so their parents wouldn't have to see it. and yet we have kids who think that's an okay thing to do. and what shocks me is today, the bbc today mentioned about the restarting. it was the anniversary of the restarting of the middle east war. not once did they mention october the 7th or the massacre. not once. they didn't mention the massacre. i mean, shocking, and we have huge

sections of our media in this country who are clearly on one side. and it just it shocks me to my core that the misreporting, the misinformation, i think this is where kids are getting a balanced view, a more balanced view on this program, which talks about, you know, there's good and bad on both sides, but to pick up i absolutely agree with benjamin. >> there is, you know, israel was giving asylum to people from gaza who were gay because hamas were murdering them. and if you think about these young people on the streets who want to live in a liberal country where people are gay without fear of violence, where people can go to music festivals and not be killed, you know, they are supporting the absolute opposite . supporting the absolute opposite. >> just to quickly say, i think the bbc would obviously deny that they are pro hamas . that they are pro hamas. >> well, they can do. yeah. >> well, they can do. yeah. >> just just on this. can we play >> just just on this. can we play the tape forward a bit, jake? because if i look now at the makeup of britain and the overt quite fanatic at times support of proscribed terrorist organisations on the streets of
4:15 am
britain to the point where people feel so comfortable that apparently some bloke can come out dressed as a parachutist to an event two days before the, you know, the, the anniversary of that massacre there. this problem only gets worse in britain, doesn't it? with the change that we're seeing in society now. >> well, unless we start to treat these crimes seriously and arrest people. because if you enable people on one side of the argument and we've heard about this two tier britain on one side, quite rightly, people who went and rioted in the summer were arrested and dealt with very severely. but there are these pro—palestinian marches where people do very offensive things, actually supporting a terrorist organisation in the uk is a crime. why are the police not taking action? he was arrested. >> are they more scared of one community than another? benjamin, do you think? >> well, the argument they put is that it's better to arrest them with the intelligence afterwards. but you know what? if i went on a protest and there were a few people stood next to me who made anti—black racist remarks? i wouldn't go back next saturday. >> go home.
4:16 am
>> go home. >> exactly. and yet we've had a year. yeah >> and, you know, the french, the french police have been very strong on this. they have banned marches that promote anti—semitism. why haven't we been able to do that yet? >> the way we see, the way that the police have some footage online, the way that some of the police officers are standing there with their arms filled, some of them in germany. the way they deal with this, they don't mess about . you don't mess with mess about. you don't mess with the german police. and word gets around. but anyway. right. thank you very much. good start to the houh you very much. good start to the hour. it's time now in a massive gear change for the great british giveaway. your chance to win the equivalent of having an extra three grand in your bank account every month for the next yeah account every month for the next year. that is a whopping £36,000 in free cash. here's all the details you need to make that money yours. >> this is your chance to win a £36,000 secret salary in the latest great british giveaway. >> that's like having £3,000 each month for an entire year. >> extra cash in your bank account that you can do whatever you like with. take a year off and keep it to yourself. you don't even need to tell the taxman as it's totally tax free for another chance to win £36,000 in tax free cash. text

4:18 am
pensioners could freeze to death this winter. rachel reeves refusing to reveal the key details about this mythical £22 billion black hole that had the civil service. he's gone as well. look, you name it, it's happened to labour so far. well. look, you name it, it's happened to labour so far . so is happened to labour so far. so is this the most disastrous start to a government ever? former labour minister steve mccabe joins me sooi'i.
4:22 am
welcome back to patrick christys. tonight, all of tomorrow's newspaper front pages with my panel are coming up shortly. but first, downing street has today been forced to deny claims that keir starmer's government is in tatters and chaos after his top aide, sue gray, was forced to resign over the weekend following weeks of bitter infighting. her replacement, morgan mcsweeney, masterminded starmer's election victory, was previously the director of the labour together think tank, which actually, unfortunately for him, was fined for failing to declare £730,000 worth of donations back in 2021. some might argue that's quite on brand, actually. it marks yet more turmoil for keir starmer less than 100 days into his time as prime minister, the head of the civil service, simon case, he's going to stand down on health grounds at the end of the yeah health grounds at the end of the year. the man at the centre of labour's donation scandal, lord waheed alli, is under investigation by the house of lords standards watchdog over allegedly failing to register interest . the treasury has interest. the treasury has repeatedly refused to reveal key
4:23 am
details about the so—called £22 billion black hole that rachel reeves has claimed to discover on top of all of that, 973 migrants crossed the channel on saturday, the most in a single day so far this year. the non—dom tax rate apparently isn't going to raise any tax. the private school fee rise apparently isn't really going to raise any money or lead to that many new teachers. so, you know , many new teachers. so, you know, cracking start. i'm joined now by former labour mp steve mccabe. steve, thank you very much. is this the worst start to any government we've ever had ? any government we've ever had? >> no, but it's a government that's having to confront no end of difficulties, most of which is inherited. >> okay. i mean. well, he hasn't really inherited some of the decisions it's decided to make though. has it like taking the winter fuel payment off people or sue gray? >> no, but it's inherited a state of affairs where there is deep suspicion about anything a government does, where some of the things that are happening are things that were set in
4:24 am
place by the previous administration, and where the economy is a direct result of 14 years of tory failure. >> okay. all right. so let's just have a little look. so sue gray, chief of staff, gone at the head of the civil service, leaving allegedly on health grounds. so that's gone. the top donor for labour is currently under investigation by the house of lords. so i mean you've got you've got that there. that's that's obviously not a good start. and the bloke that he's brought in, morgan mcsweeney, is someone who's previously been the head of a think tank that's previously been fined for, you guessed it, failing to register donations. i mean, that's all chaos , isn't it? chaos, isn't it? >> well, i think you have to unpick those, partly to be fair. i mean, i'm not really surprised that sue gray has gone. i think if you're meant to be the person behind the scenes who's orchestrating and assisting things, and you become the story , things, and you become the story, then it's inevitable that at some point you have to go and
4:25 am
probably, you know, i feel sorry for her, but probably better that that happens earlier rather than later. and that's not really that different from, you know, the situation we saw with dominic cummings when he became i tell you what is different about it, steve, and what is incredibly different actually, is that when it happened with dominic cummings, everyone on the labour benches was saying this was a complete and utter chaos. >> it's a sign that boris johnson hasn't got a grip and he needs to go. he's employed a lunatic behind the scenes and this just shows what a terrible leader he is. and the difference is that now this is happening with sue gray, everyone is saying, oh , well done, sue. saying, oh, well done, sue. you've managed to complete all of the matters in hand and you can just shuffle off now, possibly to the house of lords. >> well, i'm not sure i've said that. i think it was inevitable that. i think it was inevitable that she had to go and i would be the first to accept that, you know, they've not had the most brilliant of starts. there clearly have been things that have gone wrong. i think the comms have been really poor. i think their ability to
4:26 am
anticipate the attacks that were likely to be made on them have been poor, and i think it is true they need to tighten the ship, and it's probably better to do that now rather than later. >> i mean, that's that's , that's >> i mean, that's that's, that's that's quite literally human error, right? but the economics have gone wrong as well, haven't they, steve? the non—doms tax money is not going to it's not going to raise anything. it could be a net cost to us, this, this raid, this politics of envy raid on private schools because apparently private schools can do without quoting the education secretary here, another swimming pool or embossed stationery . secretary here, another swimming pool or embossed stationery. i'd be interested to know whether or not she uses embossed stationery when she when she uses parliamentary paper, of course, but it turns out that that might give one extra teacher to every for state schools. whilst of course massively increasing the number of pupils at those state schools. so again, that's a net cost isn't it. those are labour policies and it turns out, well, they aren't worth the embossed paper they're written on are they. >> well, i think most people
4:27 am
would genuinely accept that the issue about non—doms is whether or not you should actually pay tax to everyone else. if you're enjoying the benefits of living in the country like everyone else, and whether or not you know it raises a great deal of revenue, that's not the central issue. it's about the fairness in whether or not you should pay tax in terms of the. >> sorry, just steve, you can't you can't have that one, mate. you cannot possibly say that. you cannot possibly say that. you can't . the central issue of you can't. the central issue of raising tax on non—doms is a question of fairness and equality, and not to raise money. when labour told us that the point of raising tax on non—doms was to pay for, oh, all sorts of stuff , who was paying for stuff, who was paying for everything at one point? who's paying everything at one point? who's paying for the healthcare system? it's paid for more nhs appointments. it was paid for the education. it was paid paying the education. it was paid paying for your energy bills. so you can't say it's a question of fairness. they've costed it. no, ho. 110. >> no. >> the point i mean we have to wait and see exactly what that will raise. now you know, there's speculation that it may raise less than was anticipated. i am sceptical about that. but,
4:28 am
you know, if it does, fair enough. but the point i'm making is why should anyone, why should someone who is exceedingly wealthy , living in this country wealthy, living in this country benefit from all the things the country offers and not pay a fair share of tax? how many of your viewers really believe that? >> okay, i mean , i don't think a >> okay, i mean, i don't think a lot of our viewers want to pay more in tax because those wealthy people have left, though, steve, which is which is a it is a problem really, for us. do you think keir starmer last the full five years? >> yeah. i can't see any reason why he shouldn't. look, i'm not saying everything is rosy and i am the first to admit that we need to get a grip and tighten the ship. but i actually acknowledge that what we're witnessing at the moment is that labour won a much larger majority than anyone anticipated, largely because of the impact of reform on the tory
4:29 am
vote. they were never going to have a massive honeymoon now, and all we're seeing is the knives that were being sharpened dunng knives that were being sharpened during the election are now being brandished. >> oh. fair enough. look, steve, it's all you're a good sport. i always appreciate it. you take care. steve mccabe, the former labour mp. and i will say there was another thing i did see earlier today, which was the unions going absolutely spare at keir starmer. unions going absolutely spare at keir starmer . so you know, you keir starmer. so you know, you add that to the list, don't you really. coming up, tomorrow's newspaper front pages have arrived. they are hot off the press. i'll bring them to you next. and i'm going to be joined by a lady who claims that she's been victimised by a waitrose cauliflower. yep, you heard that right. she's got a bone to with a waitrose cauliflower. she joins me very
4:32 am
4:33 am
you the very first look at tomorrow's newspaper front pages. so let's do it. we're going to start with the metro. after 50,000 incidents on roads last month are £14 billion hellholes. britain's deepening pothole crisis has caused 480 incidents this year. so far, including 50,244 last month. potholes really wine me up. they get right on my proverbials. the i pm refuses to rule out uk military involvement in israel. sorry if israel attacks iran, keir starmer warns mps that the middle east is close to the brink. very real danger of a regional war. he's toughening his language towards tehran. let's go to the express united against labour's quotes. cruel winter fuel cut. angry protesters united outside parliament. i was at that protest earlier. i brought you a bit of it. i'll talk to you again in a little bit more detail about my fundraiser shortly. the independent starmer takes aim at malign iran as the
4:34 am
cause of all this to starmer's making the noises against iran, which i know a lot of people will appreciate. other people might, you know , question how might, you know, question how genuine it is. the daily telegraph deported thief uses echr to stay in the uk. this is a legal loophole that gives reprieve to an albanian criminal who snuck back in the country. an albanian criminal snuck back into britain after being deported. he's now won the right to stay here permanently because of the echr he scored ardit ben& jerry's, 32 years old. he was freed just six months into a two and a half yearjail sentence for burglary, and he was deported as part of this prisoner transfer agreement with albania. however, can you guess what happened? that's right. he was back in britain a couple of months later in breach of the deportation order, and he wanted to be with his lithuanian girlfriend and she had leave to remain in the uk. so he subsequently had a baby and married her, enabling him to lodge a successful claim by the
4:35 am
echr due to right to a family life. so just quickly, our wizards onto the guardian. the pain will never leave. israel marks one year since the hamas attack. so there we are. let's zone in on the telegraph . so zone in on the telegraph. so carol, the echr, you know, i mean, it makes you wonder how many mr ben& jerry's there are really it's not that difficult, is it? you can commit a crime. get sent to prison, get out after a couple of months, be deported, come back, marry a lithuanian, have a kid and you're in. >> you know , this is where our >> you know, this is where our government should just say, to hell with that decision. don't care. not listening to you. what's going to happen to us if we say we're not listening to you? nothing. and took this bloke out with his lithuanian girlfriend and his kid. we don't want these people here. and yet we seem to be incapable of deporting people on any kind of permanent basis. and this is a great reason to leave the echr, because until we do, we cannot control the people who come here and the people who we want to get rid of. we're not going to be allowed to do it. >> are you back in two bannau?
4:36 am
is that right? i made that up. now i've not made it up good. he's a bit squiffy on the echr. i mean, does he want mr bernard lie—in? >> well, he's not. what tom said is , like all international is, like all international treaties, the first thing you should do is try and change it in britain's favour. and if you can't, then you should leave. he's been unequivocal about that. no, the echr is massively out of date, and the british government, should, which we're not doing, should be si king some reasonable updating. if that doesn't happen , then it's that doesn't happen, then it's right for britain to leave. ultimately, this is a question of who runs britain. people in this country. they elected a labour government. they expect that government to be able to have the power to set immigration policies set. who should be in this country, even if i may disagree with it, they they absolutely. the voters expect them to have the power to do it because of the echr doesn't really matter. we didn't get to vote for any of these echr the trouble is, jake, the labour party and the labour government now agrees with the echr. >> they don't want to deport anyone. >> well, benjamin, i do put it to you. i mean, the albanians are obviously laughing at us. >> well, i think we're unusual
4:37 am
in letting albanians have refugee status. for example, the numbers in countries like sweden and germany of refugees are zero. they have to go there legally. and if they were in a relationship with a lithuanian who's not british, then i really don't see the argument for why. >> apparently benjamin, she was suffering from depressive symptoms and severe anxiety. >> she might feel less anxious. back in lithuania. yes, exactly. you know, i think we should be harder on. did you actually just say that? >> yeah, i know i've just got i've just got a whole load of respect for you there. hello. >> i mean , it's obviously >> i mean, it's obviously ridiculous, right. but other european countries can do it. take a stronger line on this and are in the echr. i don't think we'd be doing any good by leaving the echr. and that's why people even kemi badenoch doesn't say we should leave ignore. >> this is one of the ones we could just ignore. no one would have any issue with it. do you know what i mean? >> yes, but actually, isn't this isn't this a bigger point about the fact that we have a completely left wing civil service with a huge agenda ? service with a huge agenda? whoever you vote for, there's one political party that wins the general election every time, and that's the civil service. they have a huge left wing
4:38 am
political agenda. and until we have a government, political agenda. and until we have a government , conservative, have a government, conservative, labour or anything else that is tough enough to stand up and say, we're going to have drain the swamp, clear out the civil service, give the british people what they want, and it's never going to happen. >> you said something very interesting, which which leads me nicely on to what i'm going to talk about in a second. now, this pensioner's protest today, because the lady who is in charge of the civil service , charge of the civil service, union pension branch, they're huge. >> final salary pension. >> final salary pension. >> yeah. well she was there talking about how they are going to fight this all the way because some civil servants are going to miss out on the winter fuel pay. well, lots of loads of them are probably. but but i thought so. the civil service this is bigger than people reckon because the civil service conceivably could strike over this, which is something that people hadn't actually thought, maybe something i might support the civil service striking about, actually. but anyway. right. look. so look, how would anyone notice? >> none of them come to work anyway. >> there you go. all right. so look, earlier on, i asked you for some recommendations for a cold water swim. this is part of
4:39 am
my fundraiser for friends of the elderly and i want to highlight this issue. we're trying to raise £260,000 for friends of the elderly. they give grants to old people who really need it to help them directly, help them with their utility bills and food, taking them to doctor's appointments, hospital appointments, hospital appointments, etc. they are bridging the gap that , frankly, bridging the gap that, frankly, you know, has been caused now in no small part by scrapping the winter fuel payment, council tax going up , all winter fuel payment, council tax going up, all of this stuff. winter fuel payment, council tax going up , all of this stuff. all going up, all of this stuff. all right. and so far you wonderful people have managed to raise more than £220,000. and we've actually had a couple of people get in touch. just firstly, i'm going to read something out because it really it really touched me. and now i'm going to go to this first. i've been asking people where to suggest i should go for a cold water swim. okay, so i want to get it's time for me to get cold for all of this. so margaret's been on margaret and kent said i was gb news member. i would like to suggest bewl water for your cold swim at maggie has suggested for me to come up to north the beautiful north—east of england. a cold water dip in the north
