hi, paddy. you've got two titles in the bbc. which one are we going to use?itical and investigations correspondent. today, i think we're more politics than investigations. but, you know where where will the programme lead? who knows? and what would you normally be doing on a sunday morning? obviously watching both bbc one and listening to radio four at the same time obviously. is the correct answer! maybe one headphone in and the tv on, i think. yes, it's a very busy sunday. there's the big news of the government's milestones different from the missions. and also greg wallace has spoken for the first time about the allegations against him. he's put out an instagram story this morning, early morning, and we're going to hear what he had to say. let's get underway with sunday's newscast. newscast. newscast from the bbc. paddy's here in the studio. with victoria in the studio. and joe pike also in the studio. so, um, is the government having a reset, joe? i think yes and no. they're not having a reset in the sense that what is being announced this week isn't hurr

you worked for paddy ashdown.distinguished himself in the royal marines in the sbs. he was a real personality, absolutely. very charming. yeah. the women certainly thought that, you know, i'm not going to comment on that one. but he was very charming. he was a big personality. take the politics out of it. does starmer have leadership qualities? >> i think, well, you and i were talking in the green room earlier about clement attlee, who had absolutely no charisma, you know, was as dull as ditchwater. and you can tell your quote to the audience if they don't know it. but i just think, no. keir starmer is not a natural communicator. no. there doesn't feel any empathy. and there also doesn't seem to be amongst quite a lot of his cabinet, what i would call a natural political instinct. and i think that is something that paddy certainly had. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> by the bucket load i think, look, attlee was post—war. >> there was no television, there was no social media. and yes, he used to get on the northern line, goin

what is it that keir starmer has to avoid, paddy?ets of the united kingdom, which were full of rioters just a few months ago, who were throwing petrol bombs at hotels where people known in the press as migrants... but we can call them people. families were firebombed, because that's what the state of this argument had been. and when he became the prime minister. he cannot be blamed politically for what happened at the moment he took office. what he then did, of course, was send them all to prison very quickly. and that, you know, to answer this point, what does he have to do? what does he have to avoid? he has to avoid looking like he's not the prime minister when something like that happens. so i would answer that this issue posed him a question straight away when he was in power. "what are you going to do?" so he addressed the riots. well, now he's got to address what's happening with the actual state of the problem itself. and it's worth saying there that keir starmer has said very, very little about the aspect which those riots h

paddy said, "well, do you want to talk to her?"aughter on normal people. she'd basically sexed up the whole family, you know. she did the lot of us. we're almost out of time, butjust on a semi—serious note about the same thing. do you think values have changed, both in terms of the way the industry now portrays sex and violence? i just wonder whether you see changing values. yeah. yeah, ido. but whose values are they? i mean, i'm not going to be here to say the values of people should be, or whatever they are. the telling of stories can be done in many ways. it can be blunt, it can be brutal, it can be subtle, it can be — you can hint at it, it can be imaginative. itjust depends on the tellers of those stories, and the idea of breaking down barriers and pushing more sex, more violence doesn't particularly appeal to me, because either — well, how does it progress the story or how does it shine light on? of course it's part of life, and, yes, it should be shown, but it's the kind of pushing it towards the element, which is again abou

one day, i was cutting the crops in the paddy fields. my abdomen in the morning but i came to work anyway. i tied up the bags of paddy and tried lifting them onto my head and i suddenly felt an intense pain in my stomach. i started bleeding heavily. i went to see the doctor in the evening and they told me my baby had died. most of us women who have miscarriages never find out why their babies died but do you think that working out in the heat could've had anything to do with it? i think so. i think standing in the heat for hours could've had an impact. sandhiya had to take several months off work after her loss. she tells me the family built up huge debts during that time, which they're still paying off. i still think about that baby a lot and wonder why the child isn't with me. was it because i worked so hard in the sun? i don't know. i think about it and just feel so bad. india is one of the countries most exposed and vulnerable to heat globally. the number of hot days and hot nights are projected to double — or even quadruple — by 205

put them in the paddy wagon. you have to feel sorry for people trapped in a bad governance.at breaks the camel's back in california, it was shoplifting. they finally voted to peel back that proposition. in chicago and new york as well, it's the migrants it's a huge problem. >> jesse: he's doing weddings in bar mitzvahs now. >> charlie: i love that the moment, it's a perfect encapsulation of the entire trump political career. it's interesting that anybody is coming back around the idea that this is a problem and we need to do something about it, especially in places where democrats claim to care the most about people. let's not forget that for eight years, we had to listen to constant accusations of donald trump being racist for wanting to do it. >> jessica: we're not done. >> jeanine: we went through so much, we complained about joe biden we were called ageist or haters. that's what they do, the democrats. >> jesse: we have gone through so much as cable news hosts. the hardest hit some would say. oh, no, really big monkeys are on the loose in florida! ♪ ♪ their families with
