it is martin, by the way.lip, clearly discrimination against, against white men was, was, was raised. we must not lose the ability to see this. and the court said no, no, no, that that's very wrong. so along comes a new law that the people use parliament as they can, as they can to change they can, as they can to change the laws. and under the equality act 2010, this is permissible. it's something called section 104. and you can have all female shortlists. i mean, as a bisexual, martin, i'm going to advocate strongly for all bisexual shortlists. i'm not sure. i'm not sure how many of us there are. so i think i'd just be a shoo in. but, this is this is discrimination. it's what we call lawful or positive, allegedly positive discrimination because that's to give it an endorsement . discrimination because that's to give it an endorsement. i wonder, martin, if you're if your listeners and viewers know about the lord of the rings , about the lord of the rings, because there's a quite a powerful message in that wher

martin.uple of years because of covid. what happened to exam results? they were the best in our history. so if you want to improve exam results, close the schools. that's one way of looking at it, of course, but at the end of the day, we have most teachers want to do a good job. they're working very hard. and yes, there was a closure of schools and some teachers are lazy. of course there are. on the whole, teachers aren't the hard working. they're mostly pretty good people. look, it's common sense. if the schools were going to, you should attend. if it's not worth going to, then of course you don't want to attend. if it's a good school, you need to turn up and it it harms other children. if you take children out, other parents take children out, other parents take children out, they've got to come back. it harms other children. so not on your side on that martin. but look, i understand, but who suffers most? it's the parents who have no money. they can't go on holiday at any time. not in the

martin: not too much hawkishness.f japan wants to go further, expectations part of the end of the year or next year because we have mr. ueda's comments about the economy and how strong it will continue to be, going down around 1% next year, very little debate. colwell consumption is doing, higher wages are priced in and how much investment is happening, quite optimistic so there will be room to move if there is time. tom: you touched on the -- you touched on the politics. is the bank of japan boxed in or can they look through the elections? martin: almost as hard if not harder in the u.s.. president election on september 27. the next president will be the prime minister. they will call on election to shift this move for the party, reforms for the economy. bank of japan will probably say cooldown. we are hiking interest rates a bit. tom: you touched on the 1% level. what is -- what is your timeframe and your genuine conviction that they can get to that point given the challenges? martin: economy is cooling. inflation i

sir martin and the and greed. be commended for the depth and rigour of their work. and mr speaken and rigour of their work. and mr speaker, whilst such a comprehensive report as has been published today deserves to be considered in full, and i welcome the prime minister's commitments for time in this house to do that. there are some immediate points that i feel will command support across the house, and that i will address to the prime minister first, the work to remediate and where possible, identify new at risk buildings must continue if we are to meet, as i am confident the whole house would agree. the right honourable former member for maidenhead's pledge that no such tragedy could occur again. i know this task is not a simple one, and i thank the prime minister for recognising the importance of this issue. a significant barrier to making progress quicker is financial liability. it was an issue i was too all aware of when i became chancellor and why . one of the chancellor and why. one of the first major spend

martin. i'm speaking broadly and generally electric cars are not popular. the infrastructure or the perception that the infrastructure just isn't there. and it's more than a perception. it's actually it's an actual reality. so what they're doing, martin, in order to get that 22%, they're dramatically reducing the cost of electric vehicles, losing money or scraping without losing money. and then they're managing to make more dough on petrol or diesel, because if you sell a load of electric cars, then you can squeeze in a few petrol or diesel. generally speaking , diesel. generally speaking, martin, i'm a motoring man. i'm a businessman, and it's just financially counterintuitive. the fact that you've got to sell something at cost price or indeed lose money on it because somebody is going to hit you with a £15,000 per car fine . with a £15,000 per car fine. it's punitive. >> 15 grand per car. i water in numbers. and danny, we saw this situation with boilermakers. and the boilermakers started sa

new information about the ability of the martin county sheriff's department to go ahead and actually stop the vehicle from this a detainee, the vehicle moving up from palm beach county, just north to martin county there martin county is just north of palm beach county, moving up along interstate 95, interstate 95 as many of you know, goes all the way from south florida, all the way up towards washington, dc and even further north up to new york. and this vehicle that the detainee was in and was moving up from palm beach county from that golf course up towards 95 north and we heard the sheriff say maybe he was driving back to where he came from. we know he did have a connection with north carolina, so maybe he was thinking about heading back up towards north carolina in the course of those remarks. we also heard the sheriff correctly expressed his gratitude to that one eyewitness who spotted this individual that area at the golf course spot of this individual took a picture of them, took a picture of the vehicle is black nissan and the license plate number, which was so critical in fi

mentioned for mlk martin luther king junior, he called him martin lucifer and then used a slur that i can't say on air. he also called him a quote, commie. and that was back when they were putting his memorial in washington, dc on the national mall andrew. >> thanks for your excellent reporting. thank your team as well. i want to bring in right now the civil rights advocate, martin luther king, the third, the son of the civil rights icon. he's joining us from atlanta, martin. thank you so much for joining us. first of all, what's your reaction to mark robinson's clearly racist comments about your father? >> well, it is certainly very tragic that instead of elevating what civil rights leaders did, and people in north carolina who on the front lines of the modern civil rights movement, particularly in greensboro where the sit in movement occurred. and by the way, weigh on this day, wolf, 66 years ago, my father was stabbed in harlem. wow signing his book by a black woman from a black woman by the name of ai zoila curry. my point for making that is after dad was stabbed the next day, he

martin barton and fish. martin barton. and. martin barton. and fish. and they all break out laughing. and fdr says all we're to have fun with that. and sure enough, at the first time he delivers the speech when uses the line martin barton fish the crowd its approval laughing at it. then a few sentences later when he starts to repeat it as soon as he says the word martin, the 10,000 people scream out barton and fish. so he had really come up with a for branding republicans as these sort of hypocrites and he also loved using references pop culture. and so he well the team that they were going to compare martin and barton and fish to a daring young man flies through the air and he said they seized their trapeze with the greatest ease and reversed themselves in midair. so these sort of visual metaphors it was. but a thing i talk about a lot in my book the power of words, the power of persuasion. was he able to convince america to support great britain? they really didn't want to. and so there's a lot of talk about language and the crafting of these speeche
