this is headliners. but before we get to tomorrow's newspapers, let's go to tonight's headlines with sophie reaper . with sophie reaper. >> a very good evening to you. the time is just after 11:00. and these are your latest headlines. a spokesperson for the prime minister has said that sir keir respects the decision of the archbishop of canterbury to resign. justin welby stepped down earlier this afternoon following a report into a prolific child abuser associated with the church of england. the report concluded that welby had failed to act after learning about the abuse by john smyth qc . about the abuse by john smyth qc. in 2013, prime minister keir starmer has also distanced himself from comments made by former labour adviser john mcternan , who said britain mcternan, who said britain doesn't need small farmers . when doesn't need small farmers. when asked about the comments at today's cop29 q&a, starmer said he was absolutely committed to supporting our farmers. however,

this statement has been seen as controversial following the budget last month in which labour introduced a tax of 20% on inherited farming assets above £1 million, earlier, a sheep and cattle farmer told gb news this new tax will devastate many family businesses. >> he agrees that in a, you know, a sound democracy, we need to pay taxes because we understand that public sector needs supporting. but i think the critical thing the government has completely missed on this is that there is no margin left in farming and british farming. we are constantly told as farmers that we need high welfare livestock systems, we need high regard for the environment and we're achieving all those things. if you look at the global level, but there is still no margin to pay but there is still no margin to pay surplus towards taxes, particularly this sort of draconian inheritance tax, which will frankly finish off many, many family businesses. >> writer and journalist alison pearson has said that she's facing a police investigation for allegedly stirring up racial hatred in a social media post

actually exists, so we're going to kick this one off. josh, how are you? >> i'm very well, thank you. how are you? you just come from a gig- >> i've just been doing a gig. yeah. >> being funny. >> being funny. >> i was hilarious. >> i was hilarious. >> people don't know that about you. they just think you're this, like, intellectual who writes books and all of that. but actually, you're also comedian. >> there we go. there it is. >> there we go. there it is. >> they should have come to see a man of many secrets out. i know people know now. >> they'll expect more from you. >> they'll expect more from you. >> i was a comedian first before i got dragged into this stuff. >> yeah, but you've always been, like, clever. you've been one of those clever blokes. >> come on. »- >> come on. >> now, look, let's have a look at the front cover of the telegraph. >> yes. so it's all the papers are focusing on welby. but this is a huge story. ramifications for actually our lives. so alison pearson, friend of the channel , very alison pearson, friend of the channel, very fine writer. and i agree with most things that she says and her opinions basically woke up remembrance sunday and the police were there and they said, oh, we've come here because you wrote a tweet . and because you wrote a tweet. and then she was like, well, what tweet? and they were like, oh no, we can't tell you. and then so she woke up in east berlin.

yes , essentially. yes, essentially. >> i mean, this is the headline talks about how it's a kafkaesque hate crime inquiry, and it absolutely is. if people have read the trial, they will know it's about a character who is on trial for something he hasn't. they don't tell him. well, she said, who's who accused me? >> he said, no, they're not accused, they're the victim. >> but we can't tell you what you're accused of. yeah. and even that phrase, the victim. yeah. it's completely bypassing due process. yeah. this is terrifying stuff. >> it's scary because she's. look, she's got a big profile, right? yeah. if this can happen to her. what is it? what's it like for normal people? like, i mean, not you, but me. >> well, we always thought that we might be protected to a degree. >> right? to a degree. and it's like when they go after people who write jokes online that cause offence . cause offence. >> they never go for professional comedians who do the same sort of jokes , the same sort of jokes, sometimes the exact same jokes. yeah. and you feel like there's a sheen of protection, but actually, i'm still getting away with it. you are very much getting away with it. >> absolutely. i think they've either got to stop doing this or be consistent. you know, if you're going to go after every nasty tweet. and i mean, jones should have been arrested over

and over again. well, how about we just don't do it? approve of it a little bit? >> yeah, but that's a personal gripe, don't you think? don't you think there's plenty to agree with me? >> i think allison pearson would gladly go to jail if owen jones went to jail. i think, yeah, i think that would be a sacrifice that she'd be willing to be paid. >> these are all about the non hate or the non—crime hate incidents, which no one's really sure what any of that means anyway. and often it's just being gender critical, etc. well, they've said racist in this case. well, in this case they're actually saying it's not a non—crime non—crime hate incident, but they're not telling her what it is. no, but what we know is it's not a it's not one of those incidents. i don't think this is a lot to guess about. >> we're not allowed to do this. i mean, my understanding is the police cannot. >> i thought they had. >> i thought they had. >> they have to tell you, surely. but this this kind of thing is happening more often. as i say, not a non—crime. i mean, the fact that we even have non—crime hate incidents is incredible to begin with. >> it started happening a lot in america, you know, with the i think it was title nine or something. was it in universities where you could be accused of something you didn't have any right to find out who accused you, what you're accused of or anything, and then lots of

lawsuits, loads of lawsuits happening now. yeah. to overturn them. >> so what do we do about this, josh? i mean, the thing is, no government has ever dealt with this. okay? so we've had the conservative governments. it all happened. >> it came under there. and suella braverman came in and 1541 00:08:12,392 --> 00:08:
