liberal bias talking about the liberal bias that was inherent within the bbc and channel 4 particular and and channel 4s well . sky and itv at times as well. but i think it's complicated because there's all sorts of journalism that is very, very bold and is far better than you would ever get on. >> do you think do you think tv do you think the people that they don't mind defending mike, are you? what are people like you? what i think they're very happy think is that they're very happy to phrases like right wing to use phrases like right wing activists or right wing extremists when it's usually an issue which is not inherently liberal or centre left. >> let's take they don't pick up on stories like a normal indian pendant news body should. let's take, for instance, nigel farage. it was three days before they even picked up on the farage story bad journalism . farage story bad journalism. that's slow to well, they're slow to pick up on stories. but are you right they didn't pick up an oil tanker? >> the bbc. it takes a long time to the papers around. it to turn the papers around. it was a massive agreein

channel 4 news. remember doing channel 4 news. i remember doing a story key to gasps of the a story key to the gasps of the newsroom in japan, newsroom that in japan, people were pay 40 year were having to pay 40 year mortgages when the standard rate was 25 years but you know, was 25 years here. but you know, again, talk to youngsters getting on the housing ladder now. they're often even now taking out 30 years, 35 year mortgages. why would you pay a mortgages. why would you pay a mortgage for longer? because that's the only way you can make the monthly payment affordable. but of course , there's a wheeze but of course, there's a wheeze here for the big mortgage lenders because if you pay a mortgage for 40 years is over. the lifetime of that mortgage, you're going to pay a lot, end up paying lot more for the up paying a lot more for the house would if you paid house than you would if you paid it over 25 years. >> it's quite a cute move from the bank. they're going to make more say, oh, we're more in interest, say, oh, we're being flexible, we're listening more in interest, say, oh, we're being potentialve're listening more in interest, say, oh, we're being potential customers.ng to our potential customers. >> trying get >> we're trying to get youngsters the housing >> we're trying to get youngstwe're the housing >> we're trying to get youngstwe're alle housing >> we're trying to get youngstwe're all nicering >> we're trying to get youngstwe're all nice andi ladder. we're all nice and cuddly, but actually this is this a money making move by this is a money making move by the banks to extend mortgage terms to, you whole, whole terms to, you know, whole, whole aduu terms to, you know, whole, whole adult lifetimes. >> what else is happening >> yeah. what else is happening in the market? because i mean, certainly one of the criticism is that the products aren't keeping up with the changes in the market. you know, should there more for there be more market for mortgages housing? you mortgages and housing? yeah. you know, where the suggestions would be. well, can you have a deal where you're getting like a rental deal to make up part of the money you can actually the money so you can actually sort spread the hit that the sort of spread the hit that the mortgage is taking? for instance ? >> well, you 7 >> well, you remember when you know, about six months ago you and were on this show, we were and i were on this show, we were talking the emergency talking about the emergency mortgage standing mortgage summit. i was standing outside street day outside downing street all day trying what was what trying to find out what was what was on. and of the was going on. and part of the emergency mortgage summit, was going on. and part of the emergenystreet's|age summit, was going on. and part of the emergenystreet's attempt mit, was going on. and part of the emergenystreet's attempt to, , downing street's attempt to, you know, not compel or require , know, not compel or require, encourage, encourage , ask, beg encourage, encourage, ask, beg the big mortgage lenders choose your verb. yeah. to make life easier for home owners as interest rates rise, as hard pressed families have trouble meeting their mortgages. one aspect of it was you can move to an interest only mortgage to lower your monthly payments. you can extend term of can maybe extend the term of your mortgage in to order lower your mortgage in to order lower your monthly payments , in order your monthly payments, in order to stop, repossess the ghastly event when families are forced out of the homes that they've bought because they can't maintain those mortgage payments . but we haven't seen that many repossession loans yet. but we do know that as affordability gets harder, as interest rates keep rising , then more and more keep rising, then more and more families are facing difficulties. look, this is a really complex area , but i think really complex area, but i think it's really interesting that house prices now are properly falling, that the market is properly slowing down. we've got evidence from many, many market participants nationwide, zoopla we've reported today and there will be some gb news viewers and listeners who'll be thinking, good, maybe my kids now got a chance to get on the housing ladden chance to get on the housing ladder, but we'll wait for the 21st of september and have another assessment that another assessment at that stage. for the moment, >> yeah, liam for the moment, thank you for that. now let's update you on the breaking news in hour the in the past hour that the ministry is to give ministry of justice is to give new for judges ministry of justice is to give new forjudges yes, new powers for judges to yes, order offenders attend the order offenders to attend the sentencing hearings in court that the back of that comes on the back of a number of, well, high profile cases , of course, including lucy cases, of course, including lucy letby thomas cashman, letby and thomas cashman, refusing their victims refusing to face their victims in and hearing things in court. and hearing things like impact statements as well. offenders who refuse could be forced into the dock by prison staff using reasonable force or receive an extra two years in prison. that speak now to simon harding, former senior investigating officer for the met police . simon, thanks very met police. simon, thanks very much indeed . we were reflecting, much indeed. we were reflecting, of course, that the letby situation , for instance, where situation, for instance, where judges did have the power of contempt of court to put another two years on a sentence that, for instance, for a whole life tariff that wouldn't really be much of a penalty . much of a penalty. >> no, it wouldn't . >> no, it wouldn't. >> no, it wouldn't. >> and it's a it's a difficult thing. it's not really been used a contempt of court to force somebody from their somebody to come up from their cell to, you know, to face sentencing. >> but i think this news will be really welcomed to the families that have been, you know , not that have been, you know, not had that ability to have justice in front of those that have, you know, killed their loved ones. you know, you spoke of cashman, letby there's many more, you know, zahid younis, who killed two women, a few years ago now and kept them in a freezer. you know, he never came up to face all those families . so there's all those families. so there's so many people, you know, that will be welcome, will welcome this and you know, this news. and you know, hopefully it won't take too long to bring that into legislation. >> yeah. rishi sunak speaking to reporters this lunchtime saying that the changes to the law will happen when parliament returns in this new session in the autumn, although obviously we'll have to go through all the legislative structure here. but there is a difficulty , of there is a difficulty, of course, that some have touched on, and that is if someone is literally dragged kicking and screaming into the dock , uh, screaming into the dock, uh, that in itself can disrupt court proceedings . proceedings. >> yeah. and i think that's, that's going to be part of the process that you'll see the judge, you know, will take into account information from custody down in the cells to understand what that person is like at that time. >> um, they'll probably hear from their defence team as well to understand what their viewpoints are and everybody else. so you know, at that point the judge will make an order and then of course the custody team downstairs in the cells in courts will will also have to make a decision then about the use of reasonable force. and of course all that will culminate in whether or not bringing that person upstairs to face everybody would be more disruptive than it would be. but, you know, it's a very difficult thing. is it because the family, you know, would just want them to be there? and i think, you know, they would have to be very disruptive of to not be brought up or they might have to be a danger to prison officers or something like that. >> was going to say, >> well, i was going to say, we'd that would prison we'd assume that would be prison officers than officers rather than than police. of course, who attend officers rather than than policein)f course, who attend officers rather than than policein an ourse, who attend officers rather than than policein an officialvho attend officers rather than than policein an official capacity:tend officers rather than than policein an official capacity as1d court in an official capacity as well . well. >> so the prison officers would in terms of i'm sorry, the custody staff who work in courts would bring the person up to the cells . cells. >> police officers will be with the families . you know, police the families. you know, police officers don't get involved in bringing people up upstairs to face to face families or face a jury face to face families or face a jury or anybody else. so it's purely decision to made by those that run the court systems within the custody area. so iman, thanks very much for bringing us your reaction. >> of course, we'll hear more from the prime minister on that shortly. thank you very much indeed. let's take you back to what's called the big bend area of florida on the north gulf coast, because as the hurricane has hit, these pictures from slightly further south in tampa bay, but even there , you can see bay, but even there, you can see that this roadway is now closed. we saw the highway patrol on there earlier this is a fixed traffic camera , but you can see traffic camera, but you can see it's shaking in the wind, even though the hurricane has now been downgraded to category three, the winds are 125 miles an hour. the storm surge, the seawater 15ft high, we're told, and higher up along the gulf coast as yet. no reports of any injuries or other problems. but clearly, ron desantis warning that this is a life threatening event. we'll update you with more as we get it

of warming sea temperatures. well to tell us more and there are our boobies is the founder of rare birds alert dick filby. dick, thanks very much indeed for joining us. and just how forjoining us. and just how rare is this? this exceedingly rare is this? this exceedingly rare mark, you know, brown boobies and red footed boobies are birds that live in tropical, warm waters, as you just said. >> and brown boobies never been seen in britain until 2016. they still haven't been ten seen red footed booby only once ever before in britain . and this is before in britain. and this is the second one. and it's taken up residence on the isles of scilly. >> right. which is obviously has got its own sort of microclimate it to a degree, but where do you think they've actually come from ? >> well, red footed boobies breed in the caribbean and various other tropical islands. >> and so if it came from the closest possible place, it would have come from the caribbean. it's 4000 miles from home. brown boobies breed a little bit closer to britain in the cape verde islands. but that's 2500 miles from home. that's the brown booby there now. >> and we've got a brown booby on screen as we speak. they look pretty happy there. but how how are they going to get on in the isles of scilly , even though, as isles of scilly, even though, as we say, it's a fairly temperate microclimate down there ? microclimate down there? >> it's great feeding there. mark there's a lot of food offshore . the city pelagics offshore. the city pelagics trips, which is where these birds were found from those trips are going out there , uh, trips are going out there, uh, pretty much most days at the moment. and they're finding a lot of good feeding for the sea birds and the brown booby and the red footed booby. they both feed on fish and consequently they're going to find a lot of food there, which is why they're lingering that brown booby. they're on the they're just sitting on the bottom the lighthouse. bottom of the lighthouse. yeah. and been sitting and the red boobies been sitting on top . on the top. >> and guess everyone beating >> and i guess everyone beating a path. ornithologists on their way

of the islands, you know, this bishop rock lighthouse is 34 miles off land's end. right. and so although it's easy to get to the scilly isles , you've then got to scilly isles, you've then got to get on out and fortunately, the people at scilly pelagic and the boatman, joe pender have been there it goes. it's just taking off their look from the lighthouse . yeah. they've been lighthouse. yeah.

attend their sentencing hearing under new legislation planned by the government, the ministry of justice saying the law will enable force to be used if necessary. it comes after serial child killer lucy letby refused to attend her sentencing and hear the testimony of her victims families. prime minister rishi sunak says offenders need to face up to their actions as people who have committed awful crimes games somehow are able to take the coward's way out and not appear in court for their sentencing to and hear the impact that their crimes have had on the victims families. >> i don't think that's right. they shouldn't be an easy way out. that's why we're going out. and that's why we're going to law so that courts to change the law so that courts can compel these offenders to be

important they are. that's passed a new law that's why we passed a new law to make sure that shops, though, have a right pay for things have a right to pay for things in not just banks, but in in shops, not just banks, but in shops. i it's right shops. i think it's right that people access to people should have access to cash. different thing for cash. it's a different thing for the to start imposing the government to start imposing on individual businesses how they business. i they should do their business. i don't that's appropriate. don't think that's appropriate. but can do is regulate but what we can do is regulate the financial services industry so have access to so that people do have access to cash themselves. >> we're a police station cash themselves. >> vin re a police station cash themselves. >> vin north| police station cash themselves. >> vin north london.;tation cash themselves. >> vin north london. doion cash themselves. >> vin north london. do you here in north london. do you think officers should take the knee? >>i knee? >> i think what officers and police every should be police every wear should be focussed tackling police every wear should be focuss> not gestures like taking >> so not gestures like taking the now i think police officers >> now i think police officers are spoken to are the ones i've spoken to today focusing on catching today are focusing on catching criminals, whether that's tackling are tackling people who are committing burglary committing thefts and burglary is that's who is whether that's people who are doing antisocial or doing antisocial behaviour or indeed whether it's serious violence crime . and violence like knife crime. and that's why we've passed new laws today. we've announced laws today. we've announced new laws today. we've announced new laws today police today that will give the police more tackle knife more powers to tackle knife crime, we are reducing. crime, which we are reducing. but need to do more but we of course need to do more because an crime . because it's an awful crime. >> the deadline to move afghans who aslef two who came here in the aslef two years out of bridging years ago out of bridging combination tomorrow combination hotels is tomorrow will you that deadline? will you hit that deadline? >> we've made very good >> yeah, we've made very good progress that and it progress on doing that and it speaks broader a broader speaks to a broader a broader challenge we have that at the moment. we've got the countries spending millions of pounds a day to house illegal migrants in hotels. now, that's not right . hotels. now, that's not right. it's simply unfair and not sustainable. so will you all move out by tomorrow? we're making very good progress towards that deadline. more towards that deadline. but more broadly, broadly, i think broadly, more broadly, i think this not tomorrow , this is not about tomorrow, yesterday, the day after. we've got the situation got to end the situation where we spend millions of pounds a day housing illegal migrants in hotels. i don't think that's right. is why we're right. which is why we're looking alternative sites looking at alternative sites like barges. but it's why fundamentally stop fundamentally we've got to stop people here in the first people coming here in the first place. that's what i'll stop. the law enable us to the boats law will enable us to do. i'm glad that we've do. and i'm glad that we've already made progress. and it's really important for people to know because they are know this because they are frustrated. am frustrated frustrated. i am frustrated about situation. hope about this situation. i hope people this people understand that this yean people understand that this year, the first time since year, for the first time since the small boats crisis emerged, numbers are down. i just want to say that again , numbers are down say that again, numbers are down for the first time since the small boats. it's 20,000 this yeah >> when will they go back on the barge in the south coast? >> we're working through to make sure that it's safe people sure that it's safe for people to back on. as soon as that to go back on. as soon as that as soon as all those checks and tests have been completed. we want to put people back on the barge because want our barge because i don't want our taxpayers spending taxpayers to be spending millions housing millions of pounds housing people hotels, their people in in hotels, in their communities where we can find alternative that's the alternative sites. that's the right thing to do, like the barge. but more fundamentally, while the while we've got to reduce the number coming here and number of people coming here and again, say for the again, i would say this for the first time, the numbers this year meaningfully year are meaningfully down on the i know the year before. so i know people frustrated, but people are frustrated, but i want them to know that progress is being made. we've returned 3000 migrants to 3000 illegal migrants to albania. that has since i signed the them. these the new deal with them. these are things that we are doing are new things that we are doing that are making a difference. and i will keep at it. >> we'll do anything to help families the cost of families through the cost of living autumn. living crisis this autumn. anything with anything planned, any with soaring inflation and difficulties interest difficulties with interest rates, are rates, i know things are challenging for families and that's government that's why the government has taken action, taken significant action, particularly help energy particularly to help with energy bills where provided support bills where we provided support worth around £1,500 to a typical family to help pay with about half their energy bill. >> we help. we funded that through the windfall tax that we levied on energy companies. i think that's right thing to think that's the right thing to do, for pensioners, do, particularly for pensioners, for this winter they for example, this winter they will extra £300 up to will receive an extra £300 up to alongside their winter fuel payment because we want to make sure get sure pensioners get extra support. on universal support. those on universal credit are receiving around £900 in cost of living in direct cost of living support. national living support. the national living wage all those wage has gone up. so all those things will help the most vulnerable in society. the most important do for the important thing i can do for the country and for every family is to bring down inflation. it's inflation putting up inflation that is putting up the pnces inflation that is putting up the prices shops. it's prices of things in shops. it's eating people's savings, eating into people's savings, making poorer. i need making them feel poorer. i need to bring down down to bring down inflation down to help fundamentally help people fundamentally with the cost of living. and our plan is the last couple of is working. the last couple of months that months of data show that inflation coming we inflation is coming down. if we stick the we will be stick to the plan, we will be able to deliver that for families up and down the country. >> just finally, you watched. you cheered on the lionesses from what you make of you cheered on the lionesses fronspanish what you make of you cheered on the lionesses fronspanish faiat you make of you cheered on the lionesses fronspanish fa president make of the spanish fa president rubiales kissing jenni hermoso the spanish fa president rutthe s kissing jenni hermoso the spanish fa president rutthe lips?ing jenni hermoso on the lips? >> well, my understanding is that authorities that the spanish authorities have formal have initiated a formal preliminary and preliminary investigation and they will take the appropriate action as investigation concludes. >> minister . concludes. >> minister. thank you. >> prime minister. thank you. >> prime minister. thank you. >> thank you very much . >> thank you very much. >> thank you very much. >> more with >> let's get more with christopher, has just been christopher, who has just been speaking to the prime minister i should perhaps first say, christopher. nice try at the end there. but he didn't quite bite or or kiss you on the lips anyway, let's just address what he saying , because i noted he was saying, because i noted that he said progress. i think about three times. ltns and then in terms of inflation, saying our plan is working, i guess, you know, they've got their eye on the ballot box. well that's right. >> i mean, yet again, the pm's stressing the need to bring down inflation. a lot of lots of families gb news viewers are looking into this autumn thinking crumbs. how do i support my day to day living but no more support central no more support from central government? i asked him there about was cudham about ulez. i was in cudham yesterday the boundary of the yesterday on the boundary of the ulez having interviewed ulez zone, having interviewed sadiq khan city the sadiq khan in city hall. the angerin sadiq khan in city hall. the anger in cudham was, was was definitely striking . i thought definitely striking. i thought that the pm there had nothing to offer them at all. sadiq khan told me he wanted more support from central government for those in home counties. affect by ulez expansion or even by the ulez expansion or even families the outer zone who families in the outer zone who feel not require feel they don't not require there. there's no more there. but there's no more support in terms of the pm, he feels it's been a political choice by sadiq khan to choice made by sadiq khan to extend zone. choice made by sadiq khan to ext> now he was actually there. this station sir this police station with sir mark rowley , the met police mark rowley, the met police commissioner , looking at some of commissioner, looking at some of these weapons that we saw in these weapons that we saw in these shots in the newspapers from the notting hill carnival, these so—called zombie knives and machetes . mark already and machetes. sir mark already reacting , saying that the reacting, saying that the government pleased government or he was pleased with the government's proposals today. what's to do today. it's what's needed to do a better job of today. it's what's needed to do a betterjob of protecting a better job of protecting communities, the communities, said the commissioner. right . commissioner. that's right. >> that's right. i think we saw the pm handling a zombie knife. they are huge weapons . they've they are huge weapons. they've been attempt by the government to deal with this 2016, but to deal with this in 2016, but they've had to change the law because they allowed to because they were allowed to remove words. the manufacturers remove words. the manufacturers remove the handles of remove words off the handles of these big knives. but these of these big knives. but that still allowed people to sell they seen to sell them if they were seen to be. weren't seen to be be. they weren't seen to be threatening so they've threatening anymore. so they've been since been consulting this year since april. new plan is april. and now the new plan is to increase any term in prison from six months to two years. for those seen handling these for those seen to handling these knives, there seem to be knives, if there seem to be dangerous, that's enough to get a rather than a prosecution rather than threatening. it's a legal change, but i think mark change, mark, but i think mark rowley, the met police chief, they're sounding quite happy with of policy. with this change of policy. >> yeah they're making it, >> yeah, so they're making it, i think, aggravated offence is think, an aggravated offence is the change in the law. and this is anything above eight inches long with a serrated or cutting edge or multiple sharp points. and clearly what we saw on the streets of notting hill, you know, this caused some public alarm, it? well yes, the alarm, didn't it? well yes, the image is there from the notting hill carnival were extraordinary and worrying. >> those are those are big blades. and the way these manufacturers have around manufacturers have got around the ban since 2016 is removing language the blade and the language from the blade and the handle. so meant that in language from the blade and the hanytheyso meant that in language from the blade and the hanythey weren'tneant that in language from the blade and the hanythey weren't theyt that in language from the blade and the hanythey weren't they weren't law they weren't they weren't threatening anymore the threatening anymore because the threatening anymore because the threat gone in terms of threat had gone in terms of words. so the change in policy is it dangerous to is to make it dangerous to brandish them, which of course they and they clearly are dangerous and it increase terms from six it will increase terms from six months to two years. i think months to two years. so i think that like an attempt that looks like an attempt to shut loophole here. and shut down a loophole here. and the is to remove these the idea is to remove these blades from the streets. >> now, was your your >> now, what was your your overall of course, overall impression? of course, you've long time you've been a long time westminster watcher. there have been suggestions this been suggestions that this has been suggestions that this has been minister bit on been a prime minister a bit on the foot in the bunker the back foot in the bunker even, and. nadine dorries certainly was was firing on all fronts against him . he seems fronts against him. he seems pretty chipper though . yeah pretty chipper though. yeah i thought, i mean on the, on the balls of his feet , you know, balls of his feet, you know, they seemed engage and up the up for for the, the upcoming return of parliament on monday. >> there's rumours of course about a mini reshuffle on friday. we might some friday. we might see some political noise there the political noise there from the pm. think people, the tory pm. but i think people, the tory supporters tell they are yet supporters tell me they are yet to see a kind of vision from the pm, a tax cutting vision. what's he for? it's all he really stand for? it's all very having targets. very well having these targets. he in january , he set himself back in january, but those are kind of operational targets. i think what people want see going operational targets. i think wha'thisyple want see going operational targets. i think wha'thisyple \period see going operational targets. i think wha'thisyple \period me going operational targets. i think wha'thisyple \period in the)ing into this next period in the early particularly into early autumn, particularly into this mid—bedfordshire this crucial mid—bedfordshire by—election the by—election on or around the time tory party time of the tory party conference, some reason to get the vote out, turn these don't nose into actual positive votes for tory party to shrink for the tory party and to shrink that that labour's got. yet that lead that labour's got. yet so far there hasn't been seen but he's he's on it. i mean he's he seemed quite engaged by our interview certainly i think people should think he's definitely and definitely come back and he wants fight for those wants to fight fight for those votes he hasn't got yet. wants to fight fight for those votychristopher got yet. wants to fight fight for those votychristopher at it

killed him was never found. but it was described as a zombie rambo knife . and i didn't actually knife. and i didn't actually know what one looked like until i started googling them. oh, there is no place in our country for those items to on our for those items to be on our streets. know, and the streets. you know, and the manufacturers deserve the manufacturers really deserve the prison they're prison sentences that they're going to face if they carry on. because why they on because why should they be on our is no place our streets? there is no place in the uk for something like that. >> yeah , and i think the >> yeah, and i think the possession now is yeah , it's possession now is yeah, it's just part of it. it's actually the intent to actually buy, to actually produce , manufacture or actually produce, manufacture or even to ship the things. so it's across the board and yes, yes , across the board and yes, yes, they've, they've, they've got it right . right. >> you know they've
