12:05 am
that last post, telling us it's too terrified. i'm sure that was being interviewed, she 54. that's manchester for you. so. >> so this is absolutely ridiculous. i love the way they frame it like this, grandmother. and then you see a picture of her and she's very young. so you know, trying to get sympathy. but it is it's a ridiculous waste of police time. it's so difficult to get the police to do anything. and they're going to be commenting on this. it's people are just are way too sensitive. like she can say what she likes really within reason. >> well, it's not the fact that people are sensitive, it's the fact that the police are visiting. there's huge problems of crime in manchester, and the fact that the two police officers are going around to her actual home. >> i think it's lovely. josh, i really i want police to knock on my door and tell me i haven't committed a crime. i'm just saying, you know, you've done nothing wrong. thank you very much. maybe they should give out certificates at the same time. so well done. i can show people how grimy i am. but yeah, this is this is in an area with one
12:06 am
of the highest crime rates in the country. and if they'd, like, solve all the crime. and now they were doing that, then. yeah, okay. fair enough. but i think, you know, i think it's degrading to the police. >> they must. >> they must. >> have to have to go around doing that. >> they must have a certain quota of this kind of crime that they have to deal with. it must be a box ticking exercise. and like i know policemen, i've been with policemen. right. >> been been how. >> been been how. >> don't worry about that at all. right. i'll tell you after. but i mean, to get their attention is very difficult. but one thing they do hate is paperwork. so obviously this is a paperwork i think they can tick off. they've dealt with one of these kind of crimes and that's good enough. it's really seems like box ticking. >> if it's a crime, though, to say that you want any elected person to be out of office, then in an election where we're voting people out of office, most of the country will have committed a crime, right? they're going to be really busy. they're going to be really busy. they're going to knock on almost every house in the country at this point. >> you had jd vance. he made a speech last week. everybody was like, we don't have an issue in this country. this is ridiculous. and then you see a
12:07 am
story like this, police officers out there and she i would say yes, they were intimidating to her. and she and it's just not even like she had said anything that's in any way contentious. >> what do we know exactly what she said i didn't she. >> just said they should resign. i mean, it really i mean, you're reading it and you're kind of thinking, okay, they're going to drop some bomb at the moment where she swore or did something a little bit dodgy. no, she just was like, yeah, they should resign. and that was enough for them to come out and warn her there'd been a complaint. and they won't say who the complaint is from the council. >> they just say, what have i done wrong? and they sort of said, well, nothing really. and what am i supposed to do about it? >> nothing crazy, right? >> nothing crazy, right? >> that was really helpful. >> that was really helpful. >> yeah. thank you so much. our next question is from abdi. hello. hello. >> why does cbeebies think that a transvestite sex workers make the best mothers? >> this is a great question, abdi. yes. so why does cbeebies think that transvestite sex workers make the best mothers? the bbc has been accused of insulting mothers by celebrating
