christmas market maniac. the sunday express cuts force hms queen elizabeth out of action. the observer has ministers resist rush to block musk. millions going to farage, the mail on sunday. the grinch reeves steals 45% of your donations, say charities. and finally, the daily star. sunday, ronnie kray killed marilyn monroe. well, we'll find out maybe some details on that, but let's start with the sun. lewis. >> hello there, stephen allen, how are you.7 >> how are you? >> i'm very well, thank you. we did talk to each other as the memory gone already. no, you didn't talk. >> you were over here. i was over there. people don't know that. you didn't say anything you used to say. lewis, what are you used to say. lewis, what are you up to? and then i'd realise that backstage. >> i know, i know what happened today. steve, you want to talk about what's happened today? lewis? >> he doesn't do that. no, we don't want to talk about what's happened today. that's my own. how are you doing, lewis? i'm not doing. i'm not doing that. well, adam, it's the christmas . well, adam, it's the christmas. >> you've done that once you p0p, >> you've done that once you pop, you can't stop. here we go.

>> anyway. but this is. this is in the sun on sunday. five dead, including child. this is horrible news. free to kill. we should have josh here because josh loves horrible news. >> wait a minute. >> wait a minute. >> well, he does three warnings of a christmas market maniac. this is as this is a christmas market maniac. he was really upset. about what? you know, people aren't being nice to trans people. oh, no, that's not it. that's a different story, a madgeburg christmas, i think it's madgeburg christmas market a car attack sorties warned germans over suspect three times a shocking details emerge. i've warned you. everybody's warned. we know this warning. >> so there's no it's a bit more of a specific warning than just oh they're all coming over here, which i think might be the warning that you've said before. >> do you want to know something? even if they did that, there are now 40 or 50 or 60,000 people in this country on terror lists for stuff like this. >> the person we're talking about there is almost more worrying because it wasn't like in the recent, famously, germany had like a i can't remember which year it was 2016, when

suddenly they had like a million people move in. but he wasn't one of them. he wasn't in that time. it's harder then, if your theory is, well, you want to keep an eye on those people, but you're wrong because look who you've missed. >> yeah, yeah, it's a very it's a very interesting story because you look at his social media and he seems to be supporting the afd, but he's clearly a very mentally deranged individual. he's posted in the months following up to, up to the attack was saying things like, they will pay, i will get revenge even if it takes my own life. so this is somebody who should have been alerted or on the watchlist. the german authorities, especially if saudi arabia has given them these warnings. and unfortunately, this is just a huge yeah, something that could have been avoided potentially, which is very tragic. >> it couldn't have been avoided, you know, and i don't even want to discuss it. there are some things you can't discuss, so i'm not discussing it. i want people maybe to nofice it. i want people maybe to notice my tie. it's a beautiful tie. >> comes from the probably a different show. i think we are here to dulles, dulwich college 2019 society designed by

victoria richards. >> i think that would have been a funnier bit with any one of the other stories. yeah, yeah. >> good point. >> good point. >> any other back to the other story though, it's not even just like saudi arabia giving warnings. his tweets gave warnings. his tweets gave warnings. he gave warnings about himself. so really this is this is a drop in the ball of a huge what. >> he's the only one that they've given warnings of. >> the whole thing is a tweeted saying what he was going to do. he effectively forecast it. exactly. >> yeah. and you're saying okay, that's why it won't happen again. because now the germans said that they. no, no, no, this is i don't know what the point is. the point is we can't we can't discuss it. >> there's a lot of signs here. >> there's a lot of signs here. >> i think the idea people know we should discuss it. there's lots of signs. >> we were literally discussing it. yeah, twice. we've discussed it. yeah, twice. we've discussed it and been thrown off. peace by your tie. >> yeah, because it's such a beautiful tie three times. >> now look at that from dulwich college. >> the point here is the point. the point is, is that is that there are bad people who have come into germany and they're in

this country too. and they hate they hate the country, they hate they hate the country, they hate the people living in it. and they want to kill christmas. and any attack on christmas is an attack on jews because jews own the department stores. >> well, we'll move on then. mail on sunday. adam, what have they got on their front page? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> okay. so the mail on sunday revealed shocking cost to good causes of chancellors national insurance raid. so this is the title reads the grinch reeves steals 45% of your donations, says charities. so yeah, basically this is the stories she's been dubbed the rachel reeves has been dubbed the christmas grinch because they've said in a new report, £0.45 in every pound donated to charity will now effectively go to the government, which is so again, whenever you get these numbers, it's not it's always an effective tax, isn't it? so when you're when you're sort of saying this is due to the national insurance raid, that will add an extra 1.4 billion to wage bills in the already struggling voluntary sector. so this is obviously quite sad. i think also, if you're taking

away £0.45, you've also got to think charities don't give 100% even without this to their causes. there's also operational costs. you're lucky depending if some charities are non—profit or not. so it just goes to highlight that you think charities, if they are going to towards the right causes, should be tax free. but that sadly doesn't seem to be the case. >> well why? >> well why? >> sadly, because i think the idea about charities, the ones that are good if they're supposed to be doing good, like for example, let's say cancer research, kind of quite hard to say. that's not an individual charity. >> i would say that's totally that's one of the worst charities you can give money to. >> you said that to a contrarian. yeah. >> no, not a contrarian. you picked the wrong guy. >> contrarian. but that's not my point. >> no, no, that's not the point. the point is, is that the government, the state, the administrative system is taking more and more of our money. the fact is, it's not just taking 45% of donations. it's taking money from here and there. and by the time. >> but on this one though, so they're saying they're taking they're saying they're taking the donation. but it is simply

because charities are employers. they pay employer national insurance. and that's gone up. so your theory would be that if you're a charity, you shouldn't pay you're a charity, you shouldn't pay national insurance, employers, national insurance. but look who gets to be a charity. it's not just the good ones that you can name, is it? there are loads like private schools, the charities. so they they shouldn't be paying national. >> i wouldn't give money to anything to do with cancer. i think they're totally wrong about it. >> yeah, it is a murky one. you raise a valid point there, steve. like it's in in an ideal world, only charities that we i guess the wider public would go. right. that's a bad one. that's that's or this is a good one. but i think you're right. so many people can play the system and create their own charities. >> it's me making good points that keeps me not popular. i do apologise for it. no, sorry. >> also, the point is this the is that the state takes too much of our money, which prevents us from being prosperous. >> you've not paid tax since the 90s. >> but when i say you don't mean you don't meet the minimum threshold. >> louis, i've seen your payslip. >> no, but but i still i would pay >> no, but but i still i would pay if i made. who's. whose

fault is it? >> we'd all pay if we had to. yeah. >> it's louis. well, we've got you the sunday express. what's on their front page? >> i've started off so bad. this is one of the worst shows. no, it's not bad. >> you've just started off not likeable. >> not likeable. that makes it bad. i don't care about what i believe in. i only care about being likeable. >> because someone mentioned the sunday express. >> this is the sunday express, which cost about £2 or something. is the kutz force hms queen elizabeth? that's our aircraft carrier. >> not the person. >> not the person. >> not the person, no, she's she's dead. that's right. out of action. don't laugh at that. aircraft carrier would need six months to be battle ready. and so this is the aircraft carrier that took, like, forever to build in the first place, right? that doesn't have didn't have any planes. i don't even know if they have planes right now. it doesn't have any planes. and we need an aircraft carrier because when the argentine's tire of milieu and whatever his name is malay and milieu. >> milieu. and french for a mixture of something, is it? >> no milieu. age doesn't mean an age. this milieu.

>> i think this story i my opinion on this is has been consistent. can we stop telling other countries how unprepared for war we are? we keep saying it. and if i was a russian guy, if i was putin, i'd be like, oh, great, we should be pretending that we've got the best army, the biggest army. we should be. we should be trumping it up a little bit. let's stop broadcasting on national television how unprepared we are for, you know, the third world. >> that's a very good point. but at the same time, haven't we read recently that aircraft carriers are totally unnecessary nowadays, that there are long distance drones, that aircraft carriers cost billions and then they get blown up immediately, and you need entire forces of aircraft carriers and we don't we basically, except to defend these tiny little places which we're not going to be able to get to anyway. >> we don't need we these little places, meaning countries. >> yeah, right. >> yeah, right. >> we'd better crack on. we'll try and fit another one in. here is the sunday telegraph. adam, their front page. yes. >> so this is from the sunday

telegraph. and the headline one of the, one of the main stories here is net zero. grocery tax is essentially to push up food bills. so to go in this a little bit more detail at £1.4 billion levy to reduce waste. we'll see 85% of costs passed on to consumers. now if you're thinking, well how does this how doesit thinking, well how does this how does it what does this mean in real terms. essentially rules that are going to be put onto supermarkets to be less wasteful, including like improving the types of packaging, maybe making them more recyclable, things like that will inevitably lead these companies to raise increase the pnces companies to raise increase the prices of said food affecting those of us on the bottom line. so yeah, not inevitably though. >> or they could use less packaging and not pay in the same way that, you know, when they bought in that the money you have to pay for a bag for life, you still don't buy, you don't have to drop £0.30 on them every single time. we actually do reuse them. that's very true. i think that's i've done it again. i've, i made this oh no i apologise for making proper but i think i think there's a slight difference there, if i may, because i think that was for people in the supermarket. >> i've seen people they'll

happily like carry stuff without bags to save themselves £0.35. however, i think if there's any changes, if supermarkets themselves are forced to make any changes, no matter whether it actually costs them more money, more money or less, they will use that as an excuse to up prices. so i think maybe that's okay. >> louis, do you want to quickly talk about your tie? >> yeah, i'm going to talk about my tie. i paid like £2 for this tie, and it's i think maybe i think i paid a pound for it at the charity shop near, near lidl on peckham rye. and i'm getting it back because i'm wearing. oh, you didn't like charities? >> why are you supporting charities? >> because it's my own free will. and of course the pound. >> they take so much of our money and they give it to the government. lewis. oh, you've become team wales, don't they? >> give it to. they give it to their own friends who have cancer. >> cancen >> 85, 45% of that pound is going to is wasted. >> but the point is, is this is if you believe in the need for net zero, if you believe in the climate crisis, you go ahead. you let the state take over our entire lives. we're letting keir starmer, who's a total incompetent, decide where we're spending our money. and then you

wonder why we're so poor. this is so bad. it's so bad. and that 3,530% bag is let businesses decide if they want to give out free 30% bad. >> yeah, 30 to the shops you go to, you have to pay 35% just for a bag for life, not 35. no wonder you have to go to a charity shop. that's it for the front pages. all sorted. but up next, who's better with money? reeves or farage? say bye to your second home and starmer goes on a charm offensive but might be unarmed. i presume this is headliners on gb news.

welcome back to headliners. i'm steve allen, still joined by lewis schaffer and adam koumas. and you can get involved. you can have a have a word in the gbnews.com/yoursay section. we've got plenty coming through here , actually, but .uk says, here, actually, but .uk says, has lewis noticed that his tires are a bit loose? i think the last thing we need to do is restrict more oxygen up there, adam says. yes. steve shook his papers. you love to see it. and it's the thing that i do. and andy says, i just bought an abba toilet. waterloo. thank you for those comments. keep them coming. meanwhile, we can go adam, to the sunday telegraph. and some might say this quote means that rachel reeves is offering farage a job. >> oh yeah, he'd like you'd love to see it. so yeah. this is from the sunday telegraph. farage hasn't the faintest idea how to manage the economy, says reeves. so yeah, basically this is rachel reeves saying that she would give she's been obviously

criticised for her new for the latest budget she brought in, and she would give no apologies for the many unpopular decisions she's made since the election, including the £25 billion tax rate on inheritance tax and hike for business owners. now, it's interesting when she's sort of saying that farage doesn't have the foggiest idea, because if i do remember rightly when it came to labour getting in and they were saying, what are you going to do to fix the economy? they said, well, we can't comment until we get in and we actually see the numbers and stuff. so that's a bit unfair. however, saying that the telegraph has sort of listed here the things that reform did set out during the election campaign, saying they were going to raise the minimum income tax threshold, slash taxes for small businesses, abolish heritage tax for certain people under 2 million, and raise stamp duty threshold. and actually, probably more importantly, which was halving the amount of foreign aid being put out. so it's not like they're completely in the dark. i think this is just a bit of back and forth. i mean, nigel's probably quite used to this because he's quite strong with his words. i think she's just giving it back to him. and i think, like nigel

responded saying, unlike rachel from accounts, funny. i've set up and run businesses for over 30 years creating jobs and paying 30 years creating jobs and paying taxes. so it's just politicians badmouthing each other. >> yeah, no, it's not just bad, it isn't. there's meaning, you know, why do you why you're so naive, adam, is that this? is not that what this is? is rachel reeves doesn't have a clue. she's never been in business. okay? the fact is, is the labour government here is, like, just wasting money that they don't, that they don't have. just taxing people. >> and she's wasting money taxing people. >> yeah, they're taxing people. taking our money and then giving it away. they're giving all this money to whatever they're giving the money to. >> what are they giving the money to? >> they're giving money £5 billion to foreign aid. and they're taking away £300 a year to lou schaefer to heat himself. and you in the. >> are you a pensioner? oh, you are, aren't you? >> i am, i know i look amazing. >> i am, i know i look amazing. >> this is why you're so upset. and you come in early and try and sit near the radio. >> lois, you're the only pensioner i'm aware of. and i'm quite happy he's not going to be

warm this christmas. everyone else i have sympathy for, but not the. >> the point is, is that this. whatever her name is reeves, rachel reeves, rachel reeves, it's quite important. she reminds me of a local councillor. >> thank heavens you said councillor. yeah, for the councillor. yeah, for the councillor. wondered why you were going on that one. >> that's what she is. she's an and horrible person. >> but i mean i mean he's right as well that if you are an opposition, you don't actually have to be fully funded. not that they were fully funded. and that's part of the game, isn't it, that if you're not in power, you get to sling some mud, you get to say you get to just question. and that's the job of them to hold the government to account. >> and this this government is the least popular government they've had ever, i think ever, even they've had ever, i think ever, ever. i don't know, whatever, whatever ever means up until i think even. tessa. >> tessa, whatever her name is, i'm gonna let you finish your sentence. >> what's her name is d'urberville. >> what? no. >> what? no. >> the one who was the one who was, like, 44 days or whatever. >> liz truss, liz truss, liz truss, that's tessa. >> she's known as tess. >> she's known as tess. >> of course she is. >> because tessa is short for liz.

>> same kind of name. okay. >> same kind of name. okay. >> right. lewis independent. and keir starmer is cosying up to donald trump. he hasn't been this nice to a billionaire since he wanted free glasses. >> oh my god i'm i'm so bitter tonight. but this is this is the independent which really isn't a newspaper. they don't have a they don't have a hard copy. they're just online. so why not put it in the daily wire or joe rogan or something? >> it's not a newspaper anyway because you can't tell us the price that way because there is no price. >> it's basically free or you got to pay money on subscription, whatever. but keir starmers royal plan to charm donald trump, which is a higher peter mandelson to go to washington to be the british british ambassador to washington. and this guy is the epitome of a super villain from, you know, you expect who's the guy? what's the movie going up to? the to the nakamura tower? whatever. >> die hard, die hard. he's peter mandelson as hans gruber. >> no way. >> no way. >> yes, that's an insult to alan rickman. >> come on. he is basically alan rickman. he's everything that americans hate. and he's. and this guy keir starmer is so

stupid. he thinks he thinks that just going to donald trump and being nice to him is all donald trump needs. >> that is that is a good start. >> that is that is a good start. >> to be fair with it, isn't it is a it's a good start to give donald trump something to say. hey, i'm keir starmer and labour has made a mistake with this government, but that's not going to happen. yeah. he's got he's going to be crushed by donald trump. >> i think we can all agree die hard would be like a 38 minute long film if it was peter mandelson as hans gruber. come on straight. >> i'd turn it off immediately. >> i'd turn it off immediately. >> but that's what that's what america does to nick bearer bonds. >> he knows people who are going to lend him money for a house. >> yeah. do you know what's interesting about this story, though? i think it's interesting because they allegedly. well, they went over there, didn't they, to meet trump and including david lammy. and apparently they hit it off at dinner and it's like david lammy, i think he's trump, apparently. and david lammy hit it off. supposedly this was before they found out that labour had actually sent people over to try and help the harris campaign. but trump's children, most interestingly enough, are not forgiving lammy because of his previous tweets calling

trump a tyrant, a woman hating, neo—nazi sympathising sociopath. which is not great. what do we what's the lesson from this children? don't, you know, potentially call potential leaders of the free world names? >> no, it doesn't matter. it doesn't matter what name you call donald trump. the fact is very naive. the fact is that the starmer labour government is completely at odds with everything that donald trump stands for right now. >> adam to the sunday telegraph and angela rayner has plans for your second home. and she's someone who knows what to do with the second home. >> i mean, they've all got to remember. yeah. so yeah, this is from the telegraph. how labour could soon force you to rent out your empty home. but there'll be no heating if you're a pensioner. labour is considering considering plans to give councils the power to take over and let houses that are left empty for six months in a blow to property owners. so the current rules are if a property is left out or empty for two years, you have. that's when you're sort of you'll start having people saying you need to start renting this out. they've

got to think about reducing that to six months. it's interesting because it's not what the story isn't, what how you initially might think it is. it's not just like perfectly good houses. some of these houses are not fit for renters, which is why there's, there's apparently 25, up to £25,000 in government grants available to those who want to fix up the houses. so i sympathise. i sympathise with them in that sense. my i'm actually kind of pro this in a sense i my main focus would be like, i hope these local councils and the government are going to force these overseas buyers who buy entire blocks and leave them empty to rent them out. i so i live in croydon. there's a huge thank you, thank you. i quite like croydon go croydon. but there's a huge nestle building, their famous building which has been supposed to be developed into flats, up to be developed into flats, up to 200 flats. it's currently being owned by a chinese development firm called raf properties. it's a chinese firm, despite the name, and it's currently just being left there empty. now, i would love to see this force, these overseas buyers to fill these with local

residents. that would be great. >> raf, are you saying despite the name, it's owned by chinese? are you trying to say that the chinese people have struggled with the letter r? >> i think they have a different, different language. different language? yeah. i would expect chinese symbols. >> lewis. >> lewis. >> i mean, adam is he's like so wishy washy and mealy and so left wing. then we say we don't have any left wing people on this show. it's like adam is unbelievably, i'm speaking as someone who would quite like home. >> yes. >> yes. >> you want the you want the state to give you a home because you're incapable of getting it yourself, because you voted for laboun yourself, because you voted for labour. and labour is taxing. >> i didn't vote for you. i voted for you. >> rent or do you own lewis? >> rent or do you own lewis? >> i was one of those foreigners who came to this country and bought a property. >> which was one of the people. >> which was one of the people. >> yeah, one of the people which. >> but you're living in the property. that's very different. it's a false equivalency to say that. >> no, let the people in this country, there's a british saying, god bless the british is it is a man's home is his castle. but not when you have the government telling you what

you need to do with it. if the government wants to buy a property, they have eminent domain in this country, do they not? rydon eminent domain where they're allowed? >> it's just called compulsory purchase over compulsory. compulsory domain is one of those where they say, hey, there's a huge building that's owned by the chinese people. >> they haven't done anything with it. we're buying it. and then they and if they want it so badly, they should actually force to pay the money that the building is owed. >> so you do agree with me then? >> so you do agree with me then? >> i think i do, yeah, but he hates doing it. >> still to come. why? i was born too late to go to oxford. should teachers work from home? and what is panromantic visibility? it's not a setting on your camera. this is headliners on gb

welcome back to headliners. you can of course get involved by going to gbnews.com/yoursay. quick comments here. john says steve, no wonder you're going bald going. bless you sir. and there's one that comes from from ann who says i've missed it. here we go. mandelson is more like the cartoon guy from despicable me. nice. another fellow person who's going bald. let's take a quick look at the front pages just to get us up to speed. the sunday telegraph has net zero grocery tax to push up food bills. the sun on sunday free to kill three warnings over christmas market maniac sunday express cuts force hms queen

elizabeth out of action. the observer ministers resist rush to block musk. millions going to farage and the mail on sunday. the grinch reeves steals 45% of your donations, say charities. and finally, the daily star. sunday, ronnie kray killed marilyn monroe adam to the mail on sunday. is diversity lowering the standard at oxford university? well, it stopped the graduates getting jobs. no, because the diversity thing. but anyway yeah. >> so this is from the mail on sunday. the headline reads oxford accused of lowering their own standards to hit diversity targets, with 1 in 10 places now reserved for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. so this is one of the reports, one of the dons told the times, who said i have known students admitted under this scheme who could not write essays in grammatical english, something previously unknown. in my experience among oxford undergrads. so yeah, this is obviously interesting, isn't it? i think whenever it comes to there's like quotas or diversity quotas, there is always the risk of people being even if they're genuinely good people, kind of going, are you supposed to be

here? you might just be a diversity hire and things like that. so that's always the problem with these schemes. if we're not focusing on diversity from the point of race, and we're looking at it from people who might be disadvantaged from an economic background, so maybe it could just be people who aren't, you know, don't come from money potentially. i think this is these schemes are probably better than not having them. i think they're quite a good thing. however, with any of these schemes, there's always these schemes, there's always the risk of it becoming a box ticking exercise. if only have we got x number of people from the from working class or poor people or whatever you might want to call them in. so is it less about this scheme and is it more about people, the people tasked with finding these excellent or rare people just being lazy? that's probably where i'm sitting on this. yeah. >> louis, you are diversity hire for the evening. yes, yes. >> well, let oxford admit whoever they want to admit whomever, whomever, whomever. right. >> i mean, you got failed. yeah, exactly. >> and if they want to, if they want to drag their their university down into the dumps, let them. but why should the

british state, why should working class people like you two? why? >> no, you're right, i think. yeah. >> why should you? technically, why should you or your parents have to pay taxes to go to the university? oxford university? screw these people. oxford has been noted to be on the on team world side. they shouldn't get our money. they there are lots of other universities that could get our money or not mine those as well. >> but yeah, you hate all the universities, aren't you? >> well, they've proven themselves no longer fit for purpose. >> yes. >> yes. >> yeah, well, the ones that didn't accept me. yeah, again. >> all of them. yeah, that's what i meant. you hate education, louis. the sunday telegraph. the nhs is to mark gender fluid visibility week. if you can see the fluid, i think it means you've got a leak. but i'm not a doctor. tell us more. >> ooh. that's yuck. anyway, not for me, but i know, i know there are some women who will find that yuck. anyway. gender from gender fluid appreciation to trans parents day, this is the nhs calendar of awareness 2025.

and this is just a thing that the. this is like a calendar that the nhs people put out for 351 dates of awareness. that's any date which could mean something to somebody, whether it's whether it's a religious day, whether it's a political day, whether it's a political day, whether it's a political day, whether it's a day for trans people, for muslim people, for jews, whatever it is, there are 351, 240 of them are not holidays. so there's a lot of these dates that are just like, and i think the nhs should do whatever they want to do, but they should not take money from they should not take money from the local people, from people. they shouldn't be a state, they should be a private health care. >> and adam, no one's this whole story doesn't mention how how well pancakes are doing in all this. yeah. giving a day for while. >> that's the that's the question on all of our minds, steve. like, how is pancake day doing? i mean, yeah, i mean my thoughts on this is whenever it comes to like, you know, lgbt month or trans history month or black history month, i think

morgan freeman put it best. if you haven't watched it, go and have a look at what morgan freeman thinks about black history month. he basically says in no uncertain terms, black history is american history. stop relegating my history to one month. and i think the same could be said for the lgbt community and the trans community. it should just be. there are lgbt people and trans people in british history. let's just have them in amongst that. let's not segregate people and then that would cause a lot. >> the bigger question, that's not the that's not the question. this is the question. >> i'm disappointed that it wasn't a sexy calendar, like a car wash calendar where they all get naked. >> that's what i thought. >> that's what i thought. >> i mean, i wouldn't buy it, but, you know, i think that there will be a market for that. >> download it free online. >> download it free online. >> what did people expect from the nhs? nhs are made up of nurses and doctors. they're the most left wing, nicest people and supposedly the nicest people in the world. >> i mean, you're going to be there soon. what are your thoughts? >> what is the nhs? will there be will there be a day for louis shaffer? failure day? >> you wouldn't even be happy

with that. you'd be like, oh, you know, why is it a week? yeah, everyone gets a month. what category would i be? louis shaffer history month, could you imagine, adam, the observer and should teachers be able to work from home? if it's to get the kids round their houses, someone's going to end up on a register. yeah. >> dicey. dicey. yeah. this is from the observer. uk teachers should be allowed to work from home. the education secretary says. now, phillipson said children's life chances suffer without world class teachers in our classrooms. and so this is part of a retention program that basically we're seeing a mass exodus that we historically have of teachers wanting to leave the country and they're trying to say, oh, quitting their jobs because they don't like the conditions. and they're saying in an order in an attempt to keep them, we should maybe give them access to work from home. now, i don't know about you guys. i've worked in a school previously. teachers already worked from home. they're always marking at home after hours dunng marking at home after hours during the school holidays and stuff. teachers are already working from home, giving them extra abilities to work from home and potentially give the students a worse outcome. i don't think it's the way to go. i think it's quite. i think the

way we fix this is harder and more expensive. if you think about it, there's so many news articles historically about teachers leaving to go to dubai, getting triple their salary, sometimes with better working conditions. if you want to retain teachers, it's not about letting them work from home. you need to pay teachers better, reduce the amounts of admin they have to do in box ticking. stand by them. if a parent has a complaint and don't throw the teacher under the bus under the every first opportunity, which we've seen historically and give them the respect. and i think maybe we'd start seeing the no, no, this is what he's going to say. >> yeah, yeah, it's communism. >> yeah, yeah, it's communism. >> that's what it is. it's centralisation. it's like you don't realise how deep it runs into this country. steve is like, it's like, yeah, let's let the government figure this stuff out. the government isn't. they've got a million things to worry about, but they're in control of our nhs awareness calendars. they're in charge of this craziness. the fact is, being a teacher is a very hard job. it's very hard because they let women teach and they hate kids. you didn't mention the most important thing about teaching is they shouldn't

change the kids near the kids. they don't change. >> they won't be at home, change the they won't be. >> but you're saying that that they're already doing this stuff at home, and you're saying it's hard because women teach? >> i'm saying there's a nice double back round on that one. >> yeah, yeah yeah, yeah. >> yeah, yeah yeah, yeah. >> landed so well the first time because men. >> because men. and i don't want to seem too misogynist. >> too late, too late. >> yeah. is that we have to work because no one's going to like us if we don't work. i'm sorry. no one's going to like us. so we i know people. i got to stop. i'm not. >> no, everyone's telling me to move on, but i'm still. i'm letting this sentence finish. sit on it. >> is that. is that i can't i let's go back to talking about terrorism. oh, louis. >> the feet. and there's a theme in the prevent cases and not the one you'd guess. >> yes. joe biden scraps proposal. no, this is not. this is not me. sorry. how this happened. sorry. >> have we not moved on to the. oh, yeah. >> i made a mistake. i made a mistake. financial times, basically. home office to review

autism cases and anti—extremism unit. basically, they're finding out a lot of the people who who said and have done horrible things might be a little bit too lord alli. right. >> so that's the phrase they use. >> use. >> that's the technical term. >> that's the technical term. >> yeah. so the home secretary says the home office is going to get more involved in this. i mean, let the home let them. i love how they call it the home office in this country. it's like they work like yvette cooperis like they work like yvette cooper is working out of her home with, you know, the fax machine on top of the on top of the file cabinet in the kitchen. >> the truth is, that's a hot take. >> the truth is, it's an old take. the truth is fax machine. the truth is this is like the soviet union. when anybody complained to the soviet, you know, in the soviet union, they didn't say, oh, this is an act of terrorism or an act of rebellion or an act of disagreement. we don't have disagreement. we don't have disagreement. we don't have disagreement. we just have some crazy person. it's an it's saying that the people who do these kind of things have autism instead of maybe a legitimate political grievance.

>> so, adam, if you look at the numbers, people with autism in society versus within the prevent cases, they're overrepresented in prevent cases. yeah. that's the nub of this issue. >> yes. >> yes. so >> yes. so within >> yes. so within the >> yes. so within the article >> yes. so within the article it sort of lists that despite people being diagnosed with autism are like, i think it's1% or less than 1% of the population. it's up to 13% of people on these watch lists and everything else. obviously, that's a huge overrepresentation. i love the idea that we're giving them an out and just sort of saying, yeah, it's because you're autistic, you're more likely to be a terrorist. it seems bizarre. i think it doesn't matter whether they are or not. it should just be, you know, if you do, the terrorist act doesn't matter if you're autistic or adhd or ocd or anything else, you should be charged like everyone else. >> it's a it's a don't give them an out. is that an out for me. could i use that i don't know you get the diagnosis we'll give you get the diagnosis we'll give you an out for sure okay. >> there's plenty of diagnoses coming his way. adam. the mail on sunday. and will biden fix the trans issue? forget about it. he probably will. >> yeah. so this is interesting, isn't it? this is from the mail on sunday. joe biden scraps proposed rule on trans athletes in girls sports. the reason why

this is interesting is because i thought the pre the election you know, the democrats were the party of love. love is love. everyone's accepting and they were the seen as the woke party. and now as they're going under they're just going, you know what? we're putting in a common sense rule. and i hope everyone who voted for the democrats are just realising that this is something that not trump's trump hasn't put in, the biden administration has done, because this is a huge common sense thing, and it's amazing that they've actually done it, i think. >> why did they wait until after the election to do it? >> yeah, i don't know. it just it does sort of say to me, like they don't have any values, they're just going where the time sitting, i feel like they're realising that the whole woke movement is kind of crumbling. so they're going where the wind goes, which is actually more despicable than if they just had these values and they just had these values and they were sticking by them. >> but wow. so you think that biden has had values beforehand? i mean, is joe biden the guy doesn't believe anything. he didn't he didn't believe anything when he came into power. and probably right now they're thinking trump is going to go in and he's going to he's going to outlaw these rules, because that's one of the few

things that the president can do with the department of education, whatever. and so he says he says he's you know, he may be i'm not he hasn't gotten common sense. joe biden, he doesn't have any. >> so he's trying to yeah, get in there and shoot the fox before the hunt. effectively. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> yeah i always have to slow down with that phrase because i feel like i'm going to say it wrong. i've never heard i mean, all of those years when jeremy hunt was in charge of anything, i was like, well, i could end my career. >> yeah, yeah. >> yeah, yeah. >> very true. >> very true. >> i think. i think that's probably what it what it is. or maybe joe biden is just so angry at the woke people who got him into this mess. >> can you can you bring it back just so i understand it as a louis schaefer, can you bring it back to like, you know, communism and the global elites or your tie? >> is that in any way? >> is that in any way? >> we get your tie. >> we get your tie. >> we'll discuss it during the break. still to come. who is rebecca and why does she sound hot? why is your unwanted perfume needed to give an animal a great night out? we'll find out soon. this is headliners only on gb news.

>> you're looking happy. >> you're looking happy. >> well, the forecast looks good. >> so you've sorted the travel insurance, then? >> allclear travel insurance sponsors. gb news travel destinations forecast. >> storm dennis so clears, but it remains often cloudy and sometimes windy around coastal areas, particularly for the canary islands and madeira. a fairly strong northwesterly flow dragging in some cloud and some outbreaks of rain, at times fairly settled across portugal and spain, but as we move further east. cloudy with some showers at times, particularly for rome and at times parts of greece, but it generally looks like it's improving by the time we reach the middle of the week, with the best of the temperatures across madeira. >> allclear travel insurance sponsors gb news

>> welcome back to the final section of headliners. you can get involved, although i won't have time to read them out as a final section, but gbnews.com/yoursay catherine says do lord alli a great word louis. i haven't heard it for a while. louis reads that word quite a lot in his tweets. but anyway, we'll move on now. louis the independent some women's jealousy is men's fault, apparently. and we're handing this one to louis. this has got to go. >> well, it's not going to go well. how? rebecca syndrome has been co—opted. rebecca syndrome has been co—opted by the manosphere to shame women. and this rebecca syndrome comes from the movie rebecca, which is a

fantastic movie about a girl. about a woman. >> what was her name? >> what was her name? >> her name was not rebecca. rebecca is the wife's name is the wife. the wife. wife name the wife. the wife. wife name the late wife. yeah. and how this beautiful woman marries a widower. the guy is dead. and the new woman thinks. thinks that rebecca, the first wife of the guy, is his love, his true love. and she's, like, obsessed with the first wife. >> who's this is women being jealous of previous partners. >> jealous of being previous partners. >> that was quick, isn't it? yeah. >> it is. i know this is what you do. this is what you do for a living. i'm just. this is just a living. i'm just. this is just a clown. this is a really bad show anyway. but the truth is, women are incredibly jealous. they're jealous if you. even if you don't. number one, they're incredibly jealous of everybody and everything. somebody looks at you. if they're not that way, then they don't really love you. the second thing is, is that women like to know that a man has a wife who was good. in

order for them to be interested in you, they need to be self. i think a self confirmed or something confirmed doesn't sound like self confirmed, does it? >> no, it's someone else to do it right. >> they want to know that you're a player. men don't want to know that their girlfriends are players, but with lou schaefer they want to know, was any other woman? did you have any other girlfriends? was there any? this is what they want to know because and they and this third point is they're always asking their friends, should i be going out with him? is he good enough to go out with adam? >> any take on this one? >> any take on this one? >> no. i agree with louis. >> no. i agree with louis. >> weirdly. yeah. >> weirdly. yeah. >> weirdly. yeah. >> we can move on to this one. adam. the daily star sunday and your perfume is wanted by a zoo. why? it's already been tested. >> yeah, yeah. from the daily star on sunday. chessington zoo wants your unwanted christmas perfume for its animals. so the reason why chessington zoos put out this plea? they want to create a sensory experience for some of the animals, which includes getting these sprays to help the, you know, help the animals basically develop their

cognitive functions, things like that. >> it's a boot shop. >> it's a boot shop. >> yeah, it's a weird it's a weird story. i don't know who's got, like, lying around expensive perfumes to donate to charity. >> women do, zoo women do. >> women do, zoo women do. >> but they're not going to donate it, are they? they're going to keep it all on one shelf and never have any of them. >> this is what's called clickbait, number one. it's in the daily star. you don't know if it's true, but it's in the daily star, which i happen to like, but it's in the daily star. the truth is, they need the. they need the daily star. they need the perfume . because they need the perfume. because animals stink. they stink. and this is. this is chessington. it's a zoo, but it's more like an amusement park ride. >> a lot of animals eat their food uncooked, don't they? >> they don't put the animals on the rides, though. i don't think it's. it's like that. i love the idea of, like, at some point there'll be two dogs that meet each other, nip round the back to have a smell and go, wow, thatis to have a smell and go, wow, that is pretty good. what is that is pretty good. what is that like? >> it's hugo boss and you hope that the same the same species. is that what you're saying? >> well, either way, i feel sorry for dogs. their way of greeting is to smell the bottom.

yeah, and their sense of smell is 200 times better than ours. oh, i wouldn't like doing it. and i can't smell as good as dog. >> so this is. so you're saying adam and steve, this is just a way for the zoo to keep their to keep the animals entertained, not entertained just from smelling another animal's bottom? >> i think it's entertained. >> i think it's entertained. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i mean, is this would you donate some? >> i absolutely would not. no i don't i mean, cologne is expensive. you know, i don't wear perfume. >> i don't shampoo my hair, i don't you do have probably the strongest scent out of the three of us, louis. but for other people or for myself, you have the strongest. >> i mean, it's the mouth and it's the pits, and that's not. >> that's not from brushing my teeth. my teeth. >> no, i know what you're saying is you should go to chessington because the animals would have a great time sniffing. yeah, it's a sensory excursion. >> you'd be the ultimate sensory experience. >> well, thank you very much for that. the show is nearly over. so let's take another quick look at sunday's front pages. we start with the sunday telegraph net zero grocery tax to push up food bills. the sun on sunday free to kill three warnings over christmas market maniac. the

express has cut force hms queen elizabeth out of action. the observer goes with ministers resist rush to block musk. millions going to farage, the daily mail. sorry, the mail on sunday. the grinch reeves steals 45% of your donations, say charities. and finally, the daily star sunday goes with ronnie kray killed marilyn monroe. it's in the daily star, so lewis likes it. that's it for tonight. thank you to my guest. leo kearse will be here tomorrow. if you're watching at breakfast stay exactly where you are. breakfast on the way next till the next one. have a good one. one. >> one. >> there will be a light breeze in the morning leading to a warm front. boxt heat pumps sponsors of weather on gb news. >> hello there! welcome to your latest gb news weather forecast from the met office. we're looking ahead to christmas after a cold and very windy day on sunday. the weather does look like it's settling down towards christmas itself and for all of us feeling a good deal milder. but before we get there, we still have this area of low

pressure close by. note the tightly packed isobars indicating some very windy weather, especially across more northern and western parts. we do have warnings in force throughout sunday, so if you do have any travel plans, do allow some extra time for your journeys away from the wind. we'll see plenty of showers moving in, especially across more northern parts where we'll see some of the showers turn into sleet and snow, especially across the high ground, so we could just see a little bit of ice around first thing on sunday. but for most really, sunday. but for most really, sunday is going to be a day of sunshine and scattered showers the far north of scotland. however, we could just see a longer spell of rain arriving here and again, that could potentially be a bit of a mix of rain, sleet and snow. but back to showers really for northern ireland and northern england again across the high ground. easily going to be falling as sleet and snow. similar story for wales, but i think for many southern parts of england any showers will be falling mainly as rain and then moving towards the afternoon. very little changes. i think the best of the brightest weather will be across parts of east anglia and the

south east of england, and for all of us, with the winds coming in from the north—west, it's going to be feeling a bitterly cold day. could still see gales or severe gales in the north and factor in the strength of the wind. temperatures on the from amateur could get up as high as seven degrees, but probably closer to freezing for some of us as you add on that wind. so monday starts off pretty cold. could see a widespread frost, but some sunshine to greet us as we start the week. but as we go through the course of the day, cloud and outbreaks of rain arriving from the west, and that's going to herald the milder theme as we head towards christmas day itself. but unfortunately it's going to come with a lot of cloud. so for most of us, it's going to be a grey christmas this year rather than a white one. >> we can expect clear skies leading to a light and warm day boxt solar

killed, with more than 200 other people injured, and the 50 year old man accused of their murder has now been remanded into custody. rachel reeves, the chancellor, has been called a christmas grinch because it's been revealed that her budget means that £0.45 in every pound that you donate to charity is effectively going to the taxman, and the cost of the green dream. >> a new grocery tax designed to achieve the government's net zero targets will push up household shopping bills by a whopping £1.4 billion a year in britain's rural capital of food. >> guess where that is? bakers are working tirelessly, tirelessly to ensure that every dinner table has a traditional pork pie for christmas day. our
