basically joining me now is journalist benedict spence, and my panel , former labour advisor my paneler labour advisor scarlett mccgwire and journalist claire morden . benedict, i am claire morden. benedict, i am going to come to you first as the man on the panel, look, we've seen horrific examples of violence against women and girls recently with the three little girls killed in southport, the young dutch tourist knifed in leicester square . we know that leicester square. we know that a woman is killed by a man on average every three days in the uk, normally by a man she knows. yeah, so there's no denying something needs to be done. but is this the way to go about it? >> i suspect probably first and foremost, i'd say that this is a headune foremost, i'd say that this is a headline grabbing opportunity for the government to say we're going to get tough on this issue because there's no doubt, as you say, actually, there is an epidemic of violence against women and girls in this country , women and girls in this country, whether or not you can classify it as terrorism is another thing,

oh, and what's benedict spence. oh, and what's going on . going on. here?oments . an update on the few moments. an update on the german stabbing attack. right now we're

and they're not getting to the bottom of that. >> well, benedict spence, that's a very good point, isn'te this isn't just about, in my view, the terrible, shocking events which took place in southport when those three little girls pictures of innocence were brutally murdered. this, in my view, is years and years of simmering unease and tension over the huge increase in immigration into this country and the fact it's not been properly planned, it's causing problems with social cohesion. >> isn't that what's causing this? >> i think the knock on effect of that also being , safety when of that also being, safety when it comes to children, i mean, we heard this about on this protest, but also i thought what was more interesting about what happenedin was more interesting about what happened in southport wasn't the riot itself. >> it was when keir starmer himself turned up and ordinary members of the community were shouting at him about actually safety of their children because, you know, nobody was shouting about immigration or about islamist terrorists or anything like that. >> they were sim

anyway, shall we speak to political commentator benedict spence about this speech? tone of that speech? a little bit miserable. i mean , people might miserable. i mean, people might say i didn't vote for things to get worse before they eventually got better. >> well, to be fair, i don't think anybody could ever accuse the keir starmer of being a particularly upbeat character. >> so i think this is sort of par for the course. >> but absolutely, this is the sort of thing that i think people were fearing. they might not have voted for it, but they probably did suspect that something like this was going to come down the line. that the labour party would offer sort of, you know, steady managerialism and that they'd come out after a couple of weeks wringing their hands, looking very glum, going, it's much worse than we thought, even though we told you we were the best prepared government in a generation. and we understand everything that needs to be done are in fact, we were not quite across our brief, and there's lots and lots of money that needs to be found for all sorts

can we talk about racist buildings, benedict spence? how can a building be racist?h, i mean, i haven't asked it yet, but i'm sure that many of them are. >> but i did have an incident in the library the other day where i was sort of browsing the economics section, and a disenchanted voice said, don't come back here anymore. so maybe that's what it is. honestly, this is one of those things where, you know, it's a knock on effect of basically giving power to very stupid people. wales has got this plan where it seeks to sort of get rid of racism by 2030. and as part of this, it's telling librarians to not host meetings in buildings that could be construed as having some sort of colonial record. but i don't know, is that going to make somebody feel particularly out of place, a little bit awkward? who knows? but the fact of the matter is, in a country where we don't build anything, we're now being told that architecture is problematic. so quite what it is we're going to do to get around that. given that presumably we're not going to be building new houses or libraries or
