one person who stuck in my mind was this person. i was walking through central london. i just caught his eye. he wasn't a farmer, but he felt like he had to do something. here's what he said. just people going to work. they're not they're not part of the protest, but they just want to have their show, their appreciation for these people who work so hard. good morning. are you here with the protest? >> i am i don't even i don't i'm not even a farmer. >> amazing. so why are you here? >> amazing. so why are you here? >> just to support labour. killing it. i've never needed to protest in my whole life. >> yeah, you look genuinely emotional. oh. come here. >> stay with me. don't. >> stay with me. don't. >> i can't make you cry. and then you walk away. you've never protested in your life. and yet you feel so desperate about this country. tell me why. >> just. they're mucking everything up. it's ruined. yeah. >> it feels like broken britain. >> it feels like broken britain. >> absolutely, absolutely. and i watch your show all the time. >> oh. thank you. well, hopefully it won't make you cry every morning. bless him.

>> yeah. and while you're out in the cold, bev, you may. i don't know if you. you may have missed. i talked to the former labour minister, ivor caplin, who is a regular on gb news who slavishly defended the government's position. just take a listen to what he had to say. >> i can't support what they're doing because this is trying to say we shouldn't pay inheritance tax, but everyone else in the country does pay inheritance tax. if that situation occurs in terms of their financial position. so i really think that the farmers, i understand why they might be angry, but they're just angry now because it's a labour government. the 20% is a fair way of going forward. if and when inheritance tax is neededin and when inheritance tax is needed in a farm position, you know, after a death, they're not angry because it's a labour government. >> i can tell you from talking to them. a lot of them have voted labour their whole lives. yeah, yeah. that's not why

they're angry. this isn't political. there were people there from the lib dems, from there from the lib dems, from the greens, from the tories, from reform, all political persuasions, all united over the fact that they want to save our countryside. let me just tell you what a few people at home have been saying. would that guy that i spoke to there who had the tears in his eyes. gerald has said on twitter it's just another person who feels demoralised and helpless. there are a lot of us out here. we don't seem to have a say in the future that they have in store for us. al says real emotion from that guy. great coverage by gb news and you beth. thank you. every day british people have had enough, says debs. we work hard, we look after our families. our whole existence is on the line now. enough is enough. and there were so many people supporting gb news out there yesterday. i was genuinely blown away by the love for this channel and for this show. actually, a lot of people saying, where's your co—presenter? i said, well, he wouldn't be out in the cold. he's in the warmth of the studio. >> interestingly, we could see the feeds of other stations. we don't channels. we don't need to go into detail who they are. they virtually ignored it. >> it's not just that they
