love and i think we've got six months of love in us. i think we have more pressing concerns in this country, and they're worried about, like us fighting russia or something. i mean, they could fight us. how are they? what is russia going to do? they'll bomb us, but they're not going to invade us. maybe not. we're being invaded as it is. am i allowed to say that? >> you just did, i just did. >> you just did, i just did. >> they're allowed to invade us. what is what do you think about that, cressida? >> i think it sounds like we don't have much kit. and we don't have much kit. and we don't have much kit. and we don't have many men or people, i should say, who want to fight. i think the whole thing is it's not as popular as it once was, is it? >> well, that's a really good point. we don't have enough men because people are not having enough any children out there. so . so that's why i'm against so. so that's why i'm against i'm against all this stuff. >> what are you against, paul? are you for or against? >> and do you know what all the stuff like lewis says, is, you know, very vague term, obviously, but look, we've sold our soul, haven't we? >> we've sold everything . our >> we've sold everything. our ability to manufacture for war,

any steel has gone to china. absolutely gone now we're in a situation where if we were to go to war, we'd probably have to ask one of our enemies if they could build us a couple of new ships. >> yeah, the enemy, which is absolutely ridiculous. >> and that's not just labour and conservative, that's the uni party combined for about the last 50 years have sold our defence soul down the river. team world. team world. absolutely. and it doesn't matter anyway because paying for net zero will kill us all before we get to any war. >> yeah, but that's the whole point. the whole point is, is the party of death. it's they're crushing us. you know, i've got new cups on the market. i want to just get in. >> where water couldn't. young man? >> the death of love. that's what it's all about . they don't what it's all about. they don't want us to have any children. and they don't. they don't want. because we need kids to die for us. so we can we can live stocking filler this year. >> lewis schaffer. disgusting. okay, let's move on to the telegraph, please. >> paul. yeah. china is a major nuclear threat to the west. i

to spend more money. >> well, if they didn't tell us, we'd be saying they're not telling us the truth. >> so what's happening here is, is what you know, we have all beenin is what you know, we have all been in the news cycle relentlessly for three years now. and what we know is the news cycle is either telling you what's going to happen or telling you what what's going to hap
