health secretary has warned that use of inflammatory language over grooming gangs risks inciting mass violence. in an interview with the guardian newspaper, wes streeting said vilifying entire communities could lead to atrocities such as the mosque massacre in new zealand that killed more than 50 people. it comes as sir keir starmer is under fire after a poll revealed 76% of the public, including 65% of labour voters, support a national inquiry into grooming gangs. the backlash follows labour mps rejecting a tory led call for an inquiry. now it's being reported that nigel farage has said the government should consider allowing shamima begum back home to the uk. but the reform uk leader has hit back. posting on x saying i have never wanted to allow shamima begum back into britain. as i literally say in this interview. meanwhile, reform chairman zia yousef has clarified mr farage's comments
11:03 pm
that miss begum should be sent back into the uk, but only to be placed in a maximum security prison. >> if anyone actually cares about truth, then they should actually look at what nigel actually look at what nigel actually said, which was that what's happened in syria is that there has been regime change. and let's be clear about what's happened as a result of that. you have jihadists in senior government positions. if you are a british citizen and you are concerned that there are people in syrian prisons that are security threats to the united kingdom, where would you rather they were sitting inside a prison in a now potentially jihadist controlled syria, or inside a maximum security prison inside a maximum security prison inside the united kingdom? and that's what the point nigel was making. >> and mark zuckerberg has told that has told the joe rogan podcast that the biden administration pressured his company to remove content on the side effects of covid vaccines. the meta ceo told rogan that
11:04 pm
he's generally pretty pro rolling out vaccines and that they are more positive than negative. but he added, i think they're trying to push the vaccine programme and also censor anyone who is arguing against it. the biden administration has not yet responded to these comments. those are the latest gb news headlines. now it's time for headliners. >> for the very latest gb news direct to your smartphone, sign up to news alerts by scanning the qr code or go to gbnews.com/alerts. >> hello and welcome to headliners, your first look at tomorrow's top stories with three comedians. before we dive in, let's take a look at what josh and nick will have to work with on saturday's front pages. the telegraph one week supply of gas left as cold bites. the

times rachel reeves uk needs china. daily mail now. labour plots delay to defence boost until the 2030s. daily express it's just not cricket to ban women. the sun sextape prem ace arrested on pitch. daily star we're 100% certain you should never give 100%. okay, let's take a look at the first paper. now. i think it's with you, josh, isn't it the guardian? it is. and can i just say that was some excellent, excellent hosting there. thank you very much. >> you didn't even shout. >> you didn't even shout. >> i didn't shout. not yet. it was very. get ready. so yeah we're going to go to the guardian. grooming gang rhetoric risks inciting massacre. this is from wes streeting, arguably the most politically astute of. yes, laboun most politically astute of. yes, labour, possibly future labour leader. and this is him kind of coming out both ways. and he's going no. yeah, it's really bad what's happened. but at the same time, calm down, calm down. but
11:06 pm
we always hear this. we always hear this idea that this rhetoric is what's going to lead to violence. and arguably it's withholding this. it's the build up. that's that's because of people not speaking the truth, that there is a greater propensity or per capita of pakistani, british, pakistani muslim men to commit these kind of crimes that has led to this, this kind of rhetoric. i think you're absolutely right, josh. what's very interesting here is wes streeting is very astute. he's on manoeuvres. he's trying, i think, to place himself in the position of the next labour leader. but i think his language here is inciting in itself. i mean, saying inciting a massacre that's taking it beyond the language that's required. what do you think, nick? >> yeah, well, i don't like what he said. i mean, a couple of things. josh said he's coming out both ways. that's a separate story. but this is a this. he almost did the classic norm macdonald joke. what terrifies me is if isis were to detonate a nuclear device and kill 50 million americans, imagine the backlash against peaceful muslims. he's almost done that famous joke because he's saying, oh, don't talk about it. you'll
11:07 pm
you'll incite violence. but of course, as josh says, and this is a great moment you can all enjoy with me agreeing with josh. it's, it's that kind of thing that's been the problem. not talking about it, not calling it out. fraser nelson saying today in the times there's still not proper data compiled. so we've not been specific enough. there's been talk of asian grooming gangs, which is awful for all the koreans and japanese. it's not us even grooming, even grooming instead of rape and torture. so yeah, we've been ridiculous about it. and also it helps people who are obviously peaceful members of that community to say, no, it's these people. the more specific you can be, the better. it's the cover up. it's this kind of thinking that's led to all the problems, in my opinion. >> yeah. josh, what do you think? i mean, it does feel to me that there may have been some pressure put on wes streeting. he is in a constituency which was run close by independent muslim candidates, and perhaps he's looking at his own constituency and thinking, no, no, absolutely. and you see, the same with jess phillips, someone who has spoken out extensively over violence against women and all these kind of things. but
11:08 pm
then suddenly, when it comes to having this, you know, national inquiry sort of punts it because would it antagonise her own constituents? she was very close. she only got, i think it was 600 votes or 700 votes, something like that. >> just under 700, 693 i believe. yes. sorry to be rain man. that's how much she won by it. >> so to pretend that that's not going to have any impact on her decision. and it's interesting to see how this kind of voting, this arguably along sectarian lines, is going to impact politics in the future in this country. >> yeah. and by the way, the national inquiry, in my opinion, is inevitable. richard burgon seems to have realised this already. starmer doesn't want it. i think the force of it is impossible. and who? andy burnham. sorry, what did i say? no, it's andy burnham and richard burgon. i always think they're the same person, isn't it, richard? for you all, isn't it? >> richard was the manchester mayor, isn't it? >> richard burgon has come out and said he wants it. yes. >> so. and andy and andy. >> so. and andy and andy. >> oh, sorry. i thought you were saying i got it wrong. they're the same person. >> anyway, nick can compute getting wrong. >> literally. no, no, they're
