go lots of stuff coming up. got ben habib coming up. i've got ben habib coming up. coming up i know he's my view is favourites of them also favourites one of them also kevin craig as well we'll be getting into among other things northern fine northern ireland is that fine effects pair effects the last out this pair on the pat took out to tell him off so i'll be interested and see how they get on tonight. i'm looking forward to seeing ben habib again. yes, got habib sexy again. yes, he got say that. can you once you've seen that with a lovely music over top of it, you cannot over the top of it, you cannot unsee absolutely every time unsee it. absolutely every time i close my eyes. michelle, thank very much. michelle dewberry with dewbs& co lows, and me with dewbs& co lows, you and me getting out course of getting in touch out course of this show and the big one for you that popped was you today that popped off was indeed asylum seeker indeed this failed asylum seeker who did tragically go to kill an 88 woman in her own 88 year old woman in her own home. i asking, why

and ben habib , he says, should and ben habib, he says, should be our prime minister right. labour have been busy. have you seen their new website today? this they've done like a big expose about government procurement cards. what they is essentially that the tories are mocking us off and we are funding all kinds of luxuries and we shouldn't be. ludmila, what's on? what do you make of it all? i think it's worth sorry. i think it's worth saying, michelle, that it costs the government about half a million pounds to answer all the questions that labour put in under freedom of information in order to gather some of this really trivial and uninteresting stuff . second thing to say is stuff. second thing to say is that most of this money was actually spent by and on civil servants. so, for example, the ministry of justice paying 4000 quid for 850 branded usb cables for staff, taking part in a virtual conference. i that's all for staff and a lot of this was for staff and a lot of this was for staff and a lot of this was for staff pictures for offices things like that. so i wouldn't

brexit party mep ben habib to get his thoughts on this one.t with this protocol? i think the protocol is highly unlikely to be resolved. this side of a general election . just so you're talking election. just so you're talking about this side, two years, two years? yeah, i think so. i'm labour has made it very clear just before we before us. just for viewers sake, you know that most offensive thing in the protocol as we discussed earlier in the programme is foreign laws being by foreign being made by foreign legislative and being enforced by foreign court in northern ireland. all obviously eu laws and that core aspect of the protocol cannot be removed by maros sefcovic, the eu negotiator, because he has an express mandate, not to actually with the structure of the protocol only to try and mask the worst effects of the impact on trade between great britain and northern ireland. so there's no chance of a of a deal emanating in these negotiations, which would actually address the issues that offend unionists . issues that offend unionists. but th

former mep businessman ben habib and former labour for europe and writer dennis mcshane, tennis starh you because i know you've written a lot about. talk to me about this do you think that perhaps because she's now kind of gone that her is diminished somewhat? yes. is has diminished somewhat? yes. but has got a very good legacy. anyway, terms of running scotland, the health service disaster, the education system, the finest in europe has been absolutely disintegrate to under the snp. why because they are nationalists identity party. when you choose identity over the interests of the country, you often founder. so in it's the idea of secession england. in england it's nationalist identity politics the secession from europe . that's not going from europe. that's not going very well at the moment but it's been laid. i mean it's been but you don't go in for it. still going very well. have you all before in the times, the telegraph, all papers. the tories are saying brexit isn't working best as it isn't working. the deal isn't working. dennis there's a big difference between the lousy dea

hall salles and go on the hall of salles and say, i'm going to pen ben say, i'm going to enter pen ben habibhe's a former brexit mep, but he also brexit party mep, but he is also utterly, utterly wired in when it comes to the northern ireland issue and crucially as well has the ear of jeffrey donaldson . the ear of jeffrey donaldson. ben, what are you hearing about all of this so far. ben, what are you hearing about all of this so far . well so all of this so far. well so harwood's got the jump on me because i haven't seen the text yet and i think tom is absolutely right to say that we've got to review the text in detail . and i did have an detail. and i did have an exchange , sir jeffrey, detail. and i did have an exchange , sirjeffrey, literally exchange, sir jeffrey, literally few minutes ago where he said same thing. you know, we've got to look at the text of what comes forward. but there are a couple of things in the speech that made and that i can pick up on and do jump in if you disagree what i'm saying. but he described something called the stormont break, which is basically a nod to

dougie , the more sceptical dougie, the more sceptical voices among the brexit movement suggest ben habibatiate the dup and northern ireland will be surrendered a piece of the united kingdom surrendered during peace time . surrendered during peace time. is that what you think is going to happen or is there any optimism amongst ranks ? well, i optimism amongst ranks? well, i have spoke to the dup quite a bit and they are saying that they not going to sign any deal until they're not even going to sit back here until they actually see everything passed, everything ratified , been there everything ratified, been there too many times before. they've been promised lots before. and course, nothing happened. article 16 going to be fired article 16 was going to be fired time and time again, which would have donaldson breathing have give donaldson breathing space to try and get sorted out and his own party. but of course, that didn't happen. they didn't want to inflame the situation with europe any more than they already had. but they've got to as well they've got to realise as well that northern i
