>> hello and welcome to headliners, your first look at tomorrow's top stories with three tip top comedians. let's kick off with a look at some of the front pages. the telegraph leads with chicken nuggets obstruct criminals. deportation. he must be very large nuggets. the daily mail has sickened labour mp unmasked in vile whatsapp group. and the guardian has britain complicit with war crimes on arms exports, says ex—diplomat. simon, let's start with the daily telegraph and that chicken nugget story. >> yes. >> yes. >> it's your. >> it's your. >> surreal idea of him lying on the beach like some sort of anti—tank defence or anti—landing craft would be more realistic, more believable, to be honest. this is. every every week it seems we're given a fresh demand on our credulity. chicken nuggets obstruct criminals. deportation. as you as you said in the trail, an albanian criminal was allowed to stay in britain, partly because his son will. not eat foreign
11:05 pm
chicken nuggets. and it doesn't say whether these are. there's obviously one particular brand of chicken nuggets, which we're all thinking about. they have branches all over the world. so whether whether he can just detect a slight change in it, i mean, it beggars belief. he came here, i think, in 2001 as a 15 year old unaccompanied child. this man, 39 years of age now, and he used a false name, falsely claimed to have been born in the. former yugoslavia at the time, and he's been dodging the bullets ever since. clearly. >> and he's a criminal as well. >> and he's a criminal as well. >> he's a criminal. i mean, it's just absurd. last week we had one, didn't we, where there was a jamaican i think couldn't be deported because he was the only person in his trans daughter could talk to about her, her gender issues. >> it feels as if we're. >> just being provoked. i mean, i would rather somebody came up and actually physically poked me in the face with a with a dirty loo brush on a regular basis than being forced to accept this. >> well, yeah. i mean, i sort of get the impression that our judges are just walking around with, you know, those spinny
11:06 pm
things on the top of their hats, just believing any story that's spun at them. i mean, chicken nuggets. this is ridiculous. >> the judge is going, yeah, i really like our. >> nuggets as well. >> nuggets as well. >> i understand. >> i understand. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> so i mean, i'm wondering whether we. >> can we. >> can we. >> can we. >> can compromise and maybe deport them, but send them. >> nuggets. >> nuggets. >> you know. or maybe or maybe give the father some, some lessons on how to cook his own. >> nuggets for. >> nuggets for. >> his child that he might get. >> his child that he might get. >> to like. >> to like. >> it does say in the story it. >> it does say in the story it. >> was that was. >> was that was. >> partly the reason we've not told the rest of the reason, but it might be they didn't like their foreign. >> fries either. >> fries either. >> you know, there. >> you know, there. >> might be more to it, i don't know. >> i like that idea. some food drops have like a hercules flies over albania every so often. we're, like, happy now? okay, see you next month. >> yeah. it's not quite that we can't send someone back because it's a war zone, is it? it's just. >> yeah, yeah. albania's a flavour thing. >> albania is a peaceful country andifs >> albania is a peaceful country and it's got amazing food. my brother went there on holiday and he said the food was amazing. it's mediterranean. it's didn't specifically. >> mention the chicken nuggets, though. he did not. >> the chicken nuggets. >> the chicken nuggets. >> i think i've had chicken nuggets probably twice in my
11:07 pm
life. i've managed without them. >> yeah. and i mean this is under the under the european convention of human rights, the echr that says that deporting him because his son likes the chicken nuggets would, would be a breach of his right to a family life. i mean, do we need to tighten up or possibly scrap this legislation, or possibly just take this legislation outside and shoot it in the head? >> echr is the c stands for chicken. obviously i'm trying to retrofit the rest of the acronym there. yeah it's absurd. you're right though of course, this is the sort of thing. when people voted for brexit, they did not anticipate that it would. it would actually give rise to things like this, which were previously, i don't know, it felt like there was a more, just a general easy flow of people coming and going. freedom of movement and people went well. i think we should tighten up the immigration a little bit, and instead it's just spun so far off the track. >> yeah, yeah. >> yeah, yeah. >> things are happening now that are vastly worse, more horrifying and provocative than anything that used to happen under the general freedom of movement. >> i think it's undermining people's faith in democracy. totally. they voted for one thing, and they got they got the
11:08 pm
complete opposite of what they wanted. there's also oh, we're going to move on to the daily mail now, carrie, with the whatsapp whatsapp gate, this labour mp who's who's been reported and apparently he was reported and apparently he was reported by the by leftists in the labour party who are trying to take down centrists in the labour party. and he's been reported to the police as well over some pretty tame jokes. >> i thought we over some pretty tame jokes.
