it's going to matthew back to matthew in washington dc. one of the managers that we have heard here and, and it's been part of this administration's dna is the, um, uh, a talk receive versus democracy world, world based order. all of these sites, laws based order. but we have this kind of inconvenience coming up is lensky and his term comes to an end on may 20th. there were no elections. so what about the political legitimacy of the entire regime in care of soon? none of them will have been legally elected to power. go ahead, matthew, to be honest, i think that's the one area right now. as long as there's an active war going on, it's hard to try and profess that ukraine should be holding free and fair like. well, i mean, the united states ukraine would not be in the state. that is, is without the support of the united states, the united states going to said have elections. they had elections in afghanistan. the united states had elections in 1864. so i'm sorry, i'm not, i'm not into excuses. there's this, but i agree on the sense that, tha

it was really germanic, matthew, - events, nick.k. it was really| germanic, matthew, and it events, nick. it was really - germanic, matthew, and it was the end of this legal proceeding that started nearly a year ago, it started nearly a year ago, it started when the survivors from this disaster were brought to this port, kalamata, and at that point the coastguard took evidence from survivors. as a result of that, these nine egyptian and found himself charged with smuggling and other offences, but what happened todayis other offences, but what happened today is the prosecution case imploded in spectacular fashion with thejudges saying imploded in spectacular fashion with the judges saying that because this happened so far out to sea, they were not able to decide on what happened, they could not rule on this, and so by default they said these men simply were not smugglers, and so what happens now is a lot of human rights groups are saying this is a positive development that these men are going to be free, but still there lots of quest

thank you, matthew. i really want to thank you as an author on subject myself or contextualize and not only the events that they became famous for, but betty and barney themselves. you reveal facts about them that really nobody had written about before. it's fascinating that barney came from a part of philadelphia where african-americans had established respectable lives. and this theme of respectability is something that you touch on time and again. the same also for betty. she was part of a union family and felt that the promises of the new deal were be realized in her times and in her generation. so i'll get back to that in a minute. but i'd like to just start with the most basic question. what was it that inspired you to do this book? that is a great question because as i mentioned a bit ago, betty and barney hill are widely known and widely covered. they're quite famous in the uofl community and i think their fame generally is declining somewhat. but we're very, very well known of their time. i woul

matthew, i mean , what >> yeah. matthew, i mean, what do we do about this? to live in tents and, you know, have glastonbury without the fun. yeah. there is there is a serious undercurrent to this, which is that they really don't care about how uncomfortable they make a lot of people. and the university and i would also say the police aren't really doing anything about that i >> -- >> yeah, i mean, i think they're trying to the university would say it was trying to navigate a fine line between making them martyrs. we've seen, obviously, the footage of some of the removal of the american encampments which have taken i mean, they're bigger encampments, but they've taken quite a lot of kind of, you know, bailiffs and hard hats, etc. and that becomes the focal point. but i think i agree with sean that the most depressing thing is their absolute unwillingness to engage in debate. i mean, if oxford is famous for anything , it's famous famous for anything, it's famous for debating ideas from different perspectives . and, you different perspectives. and, you know, to

that's right, matthew. more disruption _ election? that's right, matthew. and all in the run—up to polling day at a time when the nhs is a big campaigning issue. this adds a new dimension to it. and in terms of what it means for patients, if you look at the total going right back to the end of 2022, cancellations of treatment because of all health workers strikes including nurses and ambulance staff as well as doctors, it is more than 1.4 million. so i think that impact is of real concern to patients and hospitals who will have to start cancelling those procedures. victoria atkins, the health secretary covering england, has given her reaction. he said it is a reaction of anger and dismay, and she is questioning why the bma have decided to do it, she contests the idea that the government pulled the plug on the talks, and we have now got a war of words going on, the bma seem to be implying that once the government had called the election, there was no point carrying on with these mediation talks because no meaningful offer could be made, no money could be ple

but actually, if you're double matthew's age , as i am, double matthew's age, as i am, you had to dol a compulsory community service. you had to go and visit old people. you had to work in a nursery. you had to do things that brought people together of different generations and unfortunately, i would say the woke propaganda has stopped that happening now. >> they'd want to be fighting from home, wouldn't they? >> now they need to have dbs checks on both sides , and it's checks on both sides, and it's made it impossible because schools can't. >> can i just say one very serious thing? when we had national service, national service men and women that were men, they were obviously had a choice between 18 months and two years, two years, 18 months was active service. our national service men died in korea, in malaya. they were actually fighting. it wasn't just about picking up litter, it was going and being killed. yeah. so is the national service actually about a volunteer army, which actually filled the gaps in our armed forces, which are calamitous, like a chasm at the present time? is

matthew, any ideas? labour is in favour of using stop and search selectively where necessary, but i mean , what necessary, but i mean, what i think is great is that this is a real focus on the anti—social behaviour agenda, which is what will happen under the last labour government, and we've seen an absolute neglect of the basic, fundamental, fundamental issue of community policing, of seeing a police officer or a pcso on your street and they might not have the power of arrest, but they do. they they do make a difference in communities up and down the country. and who says that? the communities who got really angry when the tories have cut thousands of them across britain, i wonder i wonder if that cuts through. >> i mean, we do have, i think now, an epidemic of people who quite clearly don't don't fear getting caught or don't feel the consequences of it. would a pcso cut it ? i get that it's better cut it? i get that it's better than nothing. and i can remember a few years ago and this is no joke now. s

adviser matthew lasercorn.t's the immigration election, if the tories lost it, immigration election, if the tories lost it , there's a few tories lost it, there's a few things to say about immigration. >> first and foremost, keir starmer talked about a border force. he made no mention of reducing numbers and how we go about it. i think there's a worry that he's response will be, well, we'll just give everybody an amnesty and that's how we'll clear the backlog. and i think he needs to answer those questions as well. >> that's what the government's doing. >> but if you if you look at if you look at immigration, i think one point where rishi is right, 14, maybe 15 other european nafions 14, maybe 15 other european nations are now looking to do something along the lines of rwanda. if we are the only people not doing that in the future, then this is legal today. >> i get that. but this, this is legal today. and actually the net migration numbers for last, sorry, the year before last were were rounded up 764,000. it w

charlie rowley, matthew , i'll start with you. matthew, i'll start with you.know you're keen to talk about this. where do you think? as i said, there. one of them is in actually being honest here. clearly that's the certainly the inference. where do you think actually we can uncover the truth. how can we possibly . truth. how can we possibly. >> well, that's always a difficult question, isn't it? when you get to contradictory accounts. but politically, what i think is interesting is significant about this is i hadnt significant about this is i hadn't realised that starmer was only aware of this possible defection, something like 24 hours beforehand. and this idea that you don't look a gift horse in the mouth, that's one thing. but actually this might come back and perhaps already is coming back to haunt the labour leader, who now finds himself in his party in the slightly absurd position of having to defend a pretty hard right mp, as i understand it, against allegations of improper behaviour. i mean, it's a slightly farcical . slightly farcical. >> so do you t

and also former labour party adviser matthew laza. good afternoon. good afternoon matthew laza.r starmer doing his thing. he looked like he'd been slightly caught unawares when he discovered that there was an election going on. well, at least it didn't get wet, i mean, you know, rishi sunak tells us the man, he's the man with a plan. we'll come off it. he isn't even the man with an umbrella. >> i mean, i mean, i think to be fair, even independent observers would say that, the tories haven't had a very good few days because, of course, yesterday. >> where did rishi sunak turn up ? >> 7 >> outside the home of the titanic? in the titanic. >> why did he do that? >> why did he do that? >> i know, i mean, you want to be shooting your advisers. i think that, you know, i'm not sure i did everything perfectly when i was a political adviser, but i didn't do that. >> and then when he got on the plane, either there or back, he was pictured right in front of the exit sign. >> and i cannot tell you the. i used to work very closely with neil kinnock's daughter, who was running the event side,

that's talk to matthew owens, profess off space physics at the university of reading and how to matthew, thanks for your time. it's very rare to see the northern lights in many regions, a slide share in but in all in south and england where you are, why is this happening now? yeah, i agree. that's a rare opportunity. um, we've just had this huge, comfortable, so all of this chain of russian after option for me. so, and they all kind of piled up in space and then a right to us and the collective sort of energy of those directions as managed to, to pump energy into the system gives us this amazing reaction. right, right. i mean, as i've mazing as a live show, as we know that the northern lights uh, influenced by so last storms, which can also be dangerous. tell us about that. yeah, i mean there is a serious side to this. and the reason the dude space where the forecasting is because these, these storms can have influence on space hardware such as communication satellites, but also down on the ground as it is on the power grease. and so by giving satellite operates as i'm probably don't br

matthew laza still to come. about his inspirational journey. it's all about overcoming gambling and becoming a mental health advocate. stay tuned . you will not want to miss tuned. you will not want to miss his story then for the great british debate. this hour, i'm asking should israel be included in eurovision ? as protesters in eurovision? as protesters storm malmo in sweden, the site of tonight's grand final, has the contest become too politicised and aslef? who can get in touch? email gbviews@gbnews.com. or why not go to gbnews.com/yoursay or tweet me @gbnews . right. so tweet me @gbnews. right. so it's time for this week's difficult conversations . now imagine time for this week's difficult conversations. now imagine being secretly addicted , knowing that secretly addicted, knowing that it was costing you thousands and thousands of pounds, damaging your mental health and the relationships, and also feeling like you couldn't actually escape very harrowing stuff. now, my next guest not only overcame these mo

i don't think biden ought to be prosecuted on a weak gun case. >> bret: matthew?awn here from what happened, bret, this will happen again. it will probably happen last year like it did in 2020. some time in 2020 some type of narrative being pursued that trump is a russian asset. i think it's very important for people in the media to be incredulous and to report fairly and accurately about whatever comes out of intelligence community in the final months of the campaign. >> bret: stef, we're going to get winners and losers right now. save time for everybody's winner and everybody's loser. starts with you. winner first? >> my winner is a little bit counter intuitive. i did choose benjamin netanyahu because we have seen such defense of him after a while of democratic leaders kind of antagonizing him over the icc attack. and request for an arrest warrant so he seen a lot of support for him this week from both sides of the aisle. and then my loser for this week is senator chris murphy who brought his bipartisan border deal to the floor. yesterday it failed and did not e

give them chance. >> and the claiming matthew , >> and the claiming matthew, that they can use in thisher than banging them up, rather than banging them up, rather than banging them up, rather than sort of throwing away the key , they're away the key, they're intervening. is it a bit too soft and fluffy, though? some people might not quite like this? >> no. well, i knew some people were kind of moan that it sounds soft and fluffy, but i don't think by the look of it, it doesn't look soft and fluffy at all. it looks pretty. it looks pretty rigorous, and it's hugely expensive. of course, to put somebody into the youth offending system, which is also young offenders institutions are pretty grim, over the years, the reports on all of them and the issues, there are even more and even greater than in our adult prisons. so i think it sounds a great idea. it's being run by oasis, which is this, charity started by steve chalke, used to be the gmtv vicar for many years, and he runs the schools next to my house. and i can tell you they're pretty rigorous with the kids outside those schools who ar

that is absolutely right, matthew. _ in this case. that is absolutely right, matthew.solutely - right, matthew. the defence called just two witnesses, of course, the burden of proof is on the prosecution to prove their case but nevertheless, the question that hung over this entire historic trial was whether the former president donald trump, who is running for a return to the white house, would take the risk and take the stand to testify in his own defence, to testify and give the jury in his own defence, to testify and give thejury insight in his own defence, to testify and give the jury insight about his intent during this entire alleged scheme and cover—up that prosecutors have spent weeks outlining to the jury. nevertheless, there were signals that despite public comments that donald trump would testify, that donald trump would testify, that he was not going to. his legal team often told the judge that they were still debating that. so now we know for sure that donald trump will not be taking the stand in his defence. and so this case rattles right to its end. the

matthew trickett family said they were mourning the loss of a much loved son, brotherand mourning thether and family member, and the police have reported them self to the independent office for please contact because they had regular contract with matthew trickett as part of the bail conditions. the government has outlined what it's describing as a comprehensive plan to compensate victims of the nhs blood scandal. at least 30,000 people were given blood products infected with hiv and hepatitis c, from the 1970s to the early �*90s. 3,000 people died. as hugh pym reports, interim payments of £210,000 will now be paid within 90 days for the most urgent cases. that's what we've always wanted, that's what said we wanted, financial security for life. hopeful anticipation, watching the government's statement, four boys and their loved ones who were at the special school treloar�*s in hampshire. i would like to make a statement following the final report... they're haemophiliacs who were subjected to trials without consent and were infected with hiv and hepatitis c. the devil's in the detail.

yes, matthew. just to _ man who will sentence him? yes, matthew.ile _ the sentencing piece. nada, i will sing only a short while ago - the sentencing piece. nada, i will sing only a short while ago that l sing only a short while ago that perhaps individual state could intervene, they probably won't. the party could intervene, it's highly likely they won't. but it will be interesting to watch in the coming hours and days, if anyone in the republican party actually breaks rank, given what we have seen? hagar rank, given what we have seen? how donald trump _ rank, given what we have seen? how donald trump will _ rank, given what we have seen? how donald trump will respond to that, matthew. i believe we have governor larry hogan making a comment shortly after the verdict, and immediately that maga crowd of politicians, not just online commentators, swarmed on him. make romney as well, as it tried senator in utah, who once ran for president, about a threat that donald trump poses. none of that has broken his hold on the party. neither tawfik there live

. >> so matthew, hours before those results were called in indiana, trump claimed he wasn't concernedng over haley voters. i want to play that. >> all of those people are going to come to me because what's -- first of all, what's their choice? biden, he's the worst president in the history of our country. >> they're all going to come to me. is there anything, matthew, to suggest trump should be confident that haley voters are going to come to him? >> i think there's a lot of evidence that he's actually right in this circumstance. i mean, i think there's haley voters that came to independents in some states and democrats in some states that came in to vote against donald trump. he can't get those, but haley republicans, i mean, keep in mind donald trump got 94% of the republican vote in 2020. after all the republicans who came out after hillary clinton, donald trump actually did better among republicans against biden in 2020 than he did in 2016, and every single poll seems to suggest today that he's going to get 92 or 93% of republicans along what he did in 2016 or 2020. i equate it to

matthew, would you like to respond to that?ot the key thing is it's not saying the 50,000 people can stay in britain. it's saying that they're going to be properly processed first. and if they shouldn't be here, that they are going to be removed . one of the going to be removed. one of the problems is that alison has absolutely said is at the moment the tories are doing two things. either they can't find the asylum seekers every week we see another cohort of several thousand have literally been lost, or they're just sitting in hotels at the expense of the british taxpayer while they're not processed the claims. so labour will get 1000 more people in to get the backlog down. it doesn't mean an amnesty. it doesn't mean an amnesty. it doesn't mean an amnesty. it doesn't mean doing what the tories are doing, which is just they would be allowed to submit asylum claims. >> this is the thing they would be at the moment. they wouldn't be. >> they would be. they would be a change. but no, it is a change. but it doesn't mean necessarily

. >> so what does he actually believe and there's a new twist of the death of matthew perry, why a criminal investigation is malbon launched, all tonight i'm laura coates live you know what occurs to me that something nights it might be really easy to forget that none of what we've been saying is actually anywhere near normal. >> that might be in the rear-view mirror frankly, if former president running for reelection surrounded by legal carnage, one might also become numb to the headlines but tonight is one of those nights where the flood of news very quickly remind you just how unusual this really all is. just bear with me for just a moment. remember the classified documents case? well, today, we learn something new that trump had some classified docs and his mar-a-lago bedroom? yes, his bedroom months after the fbi searched the resort. that's according to new court documents. and today we got some new photo showing his body man and co-defendant, walt nauta moving boxes around mar-a-lago before trump's attorney was even to review them? not an trump. they've both pleaded not guilty to mish

so as has already been said, matthew, _ trying to do here?up by 52% by 28 — 29, four years. they want to change a lot of things about this, they want to change the thresholds for pip, who gets it and who does not, they feel that there's quite a lot of people with anxiety and depression, they want to look at whether that is the best way supporting them. they want to change how the assessments are done. there are some talks of going more towards assessments by condition rather than what's been the case, which is the effect that an impairment has on your life and the costs associated with that, and then they want to change potentially how the independenc payments or how they cover the extra costs of being disabled. they are looking into vouchers, a voucher option, so not cash for some at the moment, it's cash for some at the moment, it's cash into your account every month. there are five different sums you could have, different levels of care needs, different levels of mobility need, they are looking at different ways of delivering that so you m
