shared at an earlier stage. scotland's first ever visitor levy for overnight stays has been approved by councillors in edinburgh. visitors staying in the city will have to pay a 5% fee per night, capped at seven nights, which is expected to raise up to £50 million a year for the local authority. the charge will be applied on bookings made after the 1st of may this year for accommodation stays starting in july 2026. and p0p stays starting in july 2026. and pop star robbie williams has equalled the beatles record for the most uk number one albums. >> i got you got, we got everybody, i got the gift, gonna stick it in the goal. it's time to move your body. >> it's released. better man has become his 15th record to top the official album charts to celebrate, matching one of the most influential bands of all time, the singer posted on social media. wearing a t—shirt featuring the names of the beatles members alongside his own, and thanked his fans for supporting the album and the
9:05 pm
movie. those are the latest gb news headlines for now. now it's back to patrick. >> 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. >> welcome along. good evening. so yesterday we had this. >> i'm now going to sentence axel rudakubana. having explained my reasons on counts 1 to 3 murder, i sentence him to custody for life with a minimum term which he must serve in custody of 52 years. >> rudakubana being sentenced there for the southport massacre. then this happened. tory leader kemi badenoch called for a change in the law to allow under 18 to face a whole life tariff. and then today we had this. the technicality of the
9:06 pm
whole life sentences. i think it's important to know that the last government did reduce it to 18, in line with international law. after the manchester arena bombings, and that still stands. there are a range of other aspects of law of agencies who have failed in this case to step in. >> okay, so it's the united nations, is it is that what it is? it's their fault, the united nations. okay, well, that is strange because then also today, the prime minister, keir starmer, appeared to suggest that any current plans to change the law wouldn't exist. so no current plans to change the law on whole life orders for under 18, right. so that to me looks a little bit like a domestic decision, doesn't it? because the prime minister appears unwilling to ever deviate from international law. the defence secretary did, however, decline to rule out changing the law, said the prime minister has made it clear that nothing is off the table. it's also worth noting that both the judge's and government's position is that rudakubana is very unlikely to
9:07 pm
ever be released from prison. but one father of one of the victims reportedly said axel rudakubana should rot in jail, so i think it would be interesting to see if they would have preferred the monster, who was just a few days away from his 18th birthday, was given a whole life tariff. maybe starmer could take that into consideration. hey look, after all, he released this statement yesterday. he said that what happenedin yesterday. he said that what happened in southport was an atrocity. it was one of the most harrowing moments in our country's history. he said. he stands with the families. well, it's a good statement. some may say it's slightly undermined by the fact that he attended a dnnks the fact that he attended a drinks party with celebrities at downing street shortly after laying a wreath for the southport victims, but i'm sure it was simply a pre—arranged dnnks it was simply a pre—arranged drinks event, prime minister, surely it was. and hey, he's got to merkel various commitments, but i think we should have a conversation as a country now about whether people under the age of 18 should be given whole life orders. the bulger killers are prime candidates. jon venables was sent back to prison
9:08 pm
for child porn, for example. and why was he ever let out? britain's youngest female double murderer, lorraine thorp, was 15 when she killed her father and another woman. can she ever be rehabilitated? she didn't just kill rosalyn hunt. she tortured her and found violence funny. there's loads of these people. are we too soft? i mean, starmer wanted 16 year olds to vote. didn't he. >> want to see 16 and i7 didn't he. >> want to see 16 and 17 year olds voting? they can go out and work. they can serve in our armed forces. and of course, if they are out and working, they pay they are out and working, they pay tax and therefore they should have a say over how the money they are paying in is being used. so yes, i want to see that vote for 16 and i7 being used. so yes, i want to see that vote for 16 and 17 year olds. >> so why shouldn't 15 or 16 or 17 year olds face a full life order for the very worst crimes? let's go to my panel this evening. we are, of course, joined by the director for the centre for migration and economic prosperity, stephen wolf. we've got political consultant suzanne evans and broadcaster and columnist jj rspb. good evening, everyone.
9:09 pm
thank you for joining rspb. good evening, everyone. thank you forjoining us. thank you for joining us. stephen. i'll start with you then. should under 18 seconds, especially if there are a few days away from their 18th birthday, be given a whole life order if they commit the most awful crimes. >> i'm not actually going to do what most people think i would normally say, which is the answer is yes. i am a barrister. i've been involved in criminal law. when i was training before i got into the city. i understand it, and my personal view on this is that it should be based on the evidence and the circumstances of the case. i think there should be an opportunity for the judge to have discretion. so i don't think it should be an automatically element that's placed in
