margaret thatcher was elected leader of the conservative party later becoming europe's first woman primeelson mandela. the south african activist, was released from prison after serving 27 years behind bars marking a significant moment in black history. and in 2012, the actress and singer known for her soaring voice whitney houston died at the age of 48. >> a bay area dance or was on stage performing with rapper kendrick lamar during the super bowl. his name is gary morgan. but he's also known as ice cold 3,000. he's part of an oakland dance crew and morgan described experience as surreal. >> this came from the world doing the halftime show, kendrick lamar man. it was really amazing out there, man. and i couldn't actually no other kind of experience like that. i think the thing that really shocked me more was environment atmosphere like crowd light. >> all that. i think that was that's what made it even better for him. >> morgan has been featured in other projects with kendrick but says being able to perform alongside him during black history month makes the experience even more unique.

a legislation, in a legislative parliamentary democracy, you have governments come in like margaret thatcher's government came in and completely change all public policy. you have labor governments come in and they can completely, you know, change all public policy. what's unusual here is to begin with, there was an enormous amount of performance. so, you know, ending birthright citizenship, even the immigration moves are actually not that dramatic. i mean, i would be very surprised if donald trump will get up to barack obama's levels of deportation this year. barack obama deported 3.5 million people. right. so a lot of this is performance, but it's performance aimed at rewarding your allies, undermining the rule of law. the january 6th pardons. so that's the part that's unusual. there is an enormous amount of performative. moves to say, we're in charge and we're going to break this whole federal government apart. >> yeah, that's such a good point. and so much of the performance, i mean, let's just take what we're seeing right now with the mexican tariffs, which we didn't get into. and i'm sor

that is the legendary margaret thatcher with me. that was taken on the 30th anniversary of mrs. er winning the 1979 general election. so that's 2009. very significant. she is. this is four years before she died. and this is when i was working on the daily telegraph. and she came into the daily telegraph for the day, and we showed her the old front pages from, from when she won in 79. she was fantastic. and then i took her to lunch at the goring hotel. >> oh. >> oh. >> get you? yeah. yeah, yeah. she always had the same food. she always had the same food. she always had a beef soup and a fish with no bones. >> in lemon sole or something. >> in lemon sole or something. >> something like that. yeah, yeah. >> well, of course, today is 50 years since margaret thatcher became conservative party leader. and she went on, of course, to win three general elections in the uk. >> she was a remarkable figure because to become tory leader a woman in 1975 was astonishing. there were only three women prime ministers in the world at that point. it was mrs. bandaranaike in sri lanka. what was her n

i've said that we're coming up to margaret thatcher's anniversary of becoming leader.id have a bit of time and she put in place this philosophical basis. so she's got lots of academics to write, interesting papers and books and so on, and that gave her a tremendous, solid intellectual grounding. i think kemi wanted to do the same. the difference, of course, is that margaret thatcher did not face this threat on the right that kemi faces. so what is the timescale? has has kemi potentially either miscalculated or does she need to make a new calculation about how long she's got? >> it's the it's the question that will decide whether i suppose she gets the keys to downing street or not. as you say, that margaret thatcher had all those people around her, she had some time. there was a very clear philosophical ethos 1508 00:08:47,392 --> 00:08

margaret thatcher's journey to the top was anything but easy and happened in spite of widespread scepticismen from her own beloved husband dennis, who muttered heath will murder you. but the then mrs. thatcher was never one to back down from a challenge. she thrived on debate and dissent, stating with characteristic confidence i love argument, i love debate. i don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me. that's not their job. in the eyes of many, it was her refusal to conform that made her refusal to conform that made her such a formidable force. a premiership beginning in 1979 was marked by groundbreaking policies that changed the face of the united kingdom, from the sale of council houses to privatisation to a crackdown on the trade unions. she reshaped the trade unions. she reshaped the economy and society, waging a lifelong battle against the evils of socialism. >> and socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. they always run out of other people's money. it's quite a characteristic of them. >> exactly what's happening now. her belief in rolling back the f

. >> another conservative milestone. 50 years since margaret thatcher won the conservative leadership race, will kemi badenoch ever live up to the legendary iron lady. >> and king charles faces backlash. the monarch forced is forced rather to deny a union with labour after a very chummy outing with the prime minister and deputy pm. >> labour backbenchers defy sir keir starmer and call for tweaks to inheritance tax. are the farmers protests getting through? >> we're debating whether the nhs should stop surgeries for transgender people, as it's revealed 1000 operations a year are funded by the health service. >> and the sport this morning were the draw for the fifth round of the fa cup has been made. and after plymouth's giant killing of liverpool, they're going to have to do it all over again. they've drawn manchester city away in the fifth round talking to manchester city. they play talking to manchester city. they play real madrid tonight in the first leg of the champions league play off. and in golf, the open this year will allow a rebel liv golfer to compete. >> as a scandinavian h
