i totally agree with emma webb. if staff refuse to go into the office, they should be sacked.but willing to do their jobs, but nicky there are many office nicky says there are many office jobs can done completely jobs that can be done completely satisfactorily, remotely . satisfactorily, remotely. >> what it's allowed is largely mothers keep a full time mothers to keep a full time career, which is absolutely necessary in this economic climate. commuters are spent too long travelling into london to work and makes it impossible to collect children from child care at appropriate time . at appropriate time. >> colin's been in touch. good morning to you colin. saying anyone running a company would sack these morons and start again. i say start the sackings now. they're not doing their jobs and they should not be trying to run the country. the first part of getting rid of government waste just sack the lot, says colin. don't mince your words. no, lynn. >> good morning. you believe that things should go back to the way they were before the pandemic? all this working from home absolut

. >> we're joined this morning by amy nicole turner and emma webb in the studio. ory about fiona wilson, a labour mp , which fiona wilson, a labour mp, which lots of people think they've heard of, which would be fine if she actually existed. >> this is an absolutely hilarious story. so some polling by times radio , into people's by times radio, into people's recognition and ratings of ministers has, put in a fake name, fake labour shadow minister who actually had higher recognition than some of the labour party's more media, sort of media savvy. they appear on the media quite often. so the people that you would think would be most known by the public, and actually this fake labour minister came out, came out as having more recognition isn't a real mp . no, and i mean, isn't a real mp. no, and i mean, if it's fascinating because i think it's an amy mentioned this before we were on air, that maybe it's because wilson is a name that is associated in people's minds with politics. i'd be interesting to sort of have a psychologist explain why this might be the case, but

. >> well, joining us now is political commentator emma webb . political commentator emma webb.us. from what we've heard about this incident at manchester airport, what conclusions can we draw? >> well, firstly, i think this is an absolute disgrace. if you remember, it's not that long since james cleverly announced that they were launching a probe because , a six month old babies because, a six month old babies passport had been sent to the home, not passport. sorry. birth certificate had been sent to the home office, and had been returned to the parents. ripped with the father's place of birth scribbled out, which was israel . scribbled out, which was israel. >> so we obviously have a serious, serious problem in this country, from what we can see from that footage and from the witness accounts from those two israeli citizens, is just absolutely disgusting. and firstly , i think there are firstly, i think there are multiple things to say, as we saw in that clip, just there, i think that this, this border force official is behaving unprofessionally , it's just unprofessionally, i
