evening's state of the nafion >> this evening's state of the nation flabellum holder and former tory mp neil parishhave farm buildings? are your farm buildings? are your farm buildings racist or are they animalist , or do they exude animalist, or do they exude a spirit that offends you or the cows from time to time? >> i think what would offend the cows if i didn't feed them? and i think as long as i feed them and the building is sound and watertight and bedded down, they are happy. but i think, you know, the issue isn't it, with this is that is that these are community buildings and the money was put forward by various people over the years . and it's people over the years. and it's like the colston hall, all of these things, you know , i mean, these things, you know, i mean, it's crazy because you see, who are we impressing with all this? we're only impressing ourselves the white population, if you like. and we're looking at it because, you see, as far as i'm concerned, if we want to help. what were previous colonies and the commonwealth, then let's actually do much more on water aid. let's do a

let's get the thoughts now of former conservative mp neil parish. neil, are you impressed?our vote? >> i was very impressed with what robert had to say. he was sort of confident. he was competent. he did it. he delivered it with no notes. and he very much kept to the script, you know, that he had in his head, i think he gives you that clear. i mean, i am actually, i wasn't necessarily going to vote for robert jenrick, but i must admit, i quite tempted now because i felt i liked his line. you know, we are a broad church, but we need to have the read from the same screed, our creed . from the same screed, our creed. and i think that is really, really important. and i just felt that he answered the questions to the journalists. well, he didn't shilly shally around, i noticed that he's got around, i noticed that he's got a 3500 majority, which really in knew it was very good, especially in this last election. so generally speaking, i think, you know, sometimes coming first out down the track, in a race is not always the best place to be, but i think he's, set the bar pretty hig

nelson, journalist and communications advisor linda dooley, and former conservative mp and farmer neil parishbe with us shortly due to being held up in a cattle jam . but first, the a cattle jam. but first, the news with sam harris, francis francis . francis. >> very good evening to you. i am indeed sam francis. and the top stories from the newsroom tonight at just after 9:00. well, congratulations are pounng well, congratulations are pouring in for team gb as the paris olympics come to a close. the king has called the team an inspiration. while the princess and prince of wales led a star studded video message thanking the athletes. take a listen. >> greetings loved ones from all of us watching at home. congratulations to team gb. >> well done on all you've achieved. you've been an inspiration to us all. >> well, great britain have secured 65 medals in the games, their second best haul ever at an overseas olympics , but fell an overseas olympics, but fell to seventh in the medal table, their lowest since athens 2004. and while traditional sports like athletics and cycling delivered new discip

well, we're joined by former conservative mp neil parish, neil, what does this tell us about the man? is feeling a bit insecure because, i don't know why he finds a picture of margaret thatcher looking down at him unsettling . looking down at him unsettling. i mean, i don't think margaret thatcher would have worried about any other prime ministers from history looking down on her, so i do find it quite strange. and of course, especially because it was sort of commissioned after maggie came to tea with gordon brown when he hadn't long been prime minister. back in two thousand and seven. so for me, it's a very odd thing to do, especially i think i think it probably came out of the thatcher room as well, did it? i don't know, it did, yes. i think i mean, i think it's all, you know, i mean, it's strange that, you know, when you have a, when you have a room named after a prime minister do you do actually expect pictures of that prime minister to be on the wall? and i just wonder why he finds it so unsettling. and also, you know, i mean, maggie was , you know, i mean, maggie was, you know,

neil parish, what should she do?hink so, because i think this is a sort of crass political decision, because it's not really going to save a fortune, and it's going to affect individual pensioners very badly, because some don't claim pension credit when they should . they're very proud of, should. they're very proud of, you know, supporting themselves in life. and so i think and we were always told when, you know, when i was in parliament that you give it to all the pensioners and then you tax it away from the wealthier pensioners, and by the time you means test it and mess about with it, all the costs of doing all of that. and then you have to have special schemes. it's all in my view, a very bad way to go. you know, you've got, you've got £150 a month now increase with the, with the fuel cap rising. all of this is coupled. and i think just going back to the politics of it, i mean i've got a lot of time, even though i'm a conservative, i've got a lot of time for rachel reeves. but i think this one was was a was a si

joining us now is former conservative mp neil parish. neil. lovely to see you.ce of what it's like to be an mp caught up in a similar situation where fingers are pointed, people are talking about you on all the front pages and yours was the incident with the tractor incident. shall we call it. what's it like going through this? >> yeah, i mean, it is it is pretty horrendous, because naturally we also had a lot of people sort of outside a lot of press, naturally, all outside , press, naturally, all outside, around the farm, around the house, around everything. so yeah, i mean, your career sort of with me went up in smoke in five minutes, basically. and so therefore, you know, you really have to pull yourself together and, you have to, you know, however stupid i was at the time , however stupid i was at the time, you've got to try and get over it and get on with life, and i think william probably had some of those same feelings , and i of those same feelings, and i also think he like i said, i think he was very unwise to get involved with it in the first place. i

neil parish is a former conservative mp. 's a lot of calls about parliament being recalled this chaos existing. and there is a feeling that mps should be there running the country. >> well, i think you know what we must remember is that the government carries on whether parliament's sitting or not. in some ways, it gives the prime minister and the home secretary, the ability actually to be able to, you know, call cobra together and actually very much concentrate on what's happening with, you know, the, the demonstrations and the extreme sort of thuggery and violence with it. i think none of us mind demonstrations, do we? but we cannot have this amount of destruction that's going on, but i also think, you know, that the government will also have to come up with, you know, good policies to actually stem the flow of asylum seekers, because i think this is sort of, you know , the it's encouraging know, the it's encouraging people to demonstrate, but nobody minds demonstrations . people to demonstrate, but nobody minds demonstrati
