so richard tice has done a good job.e when you see 15 points in the polls, that's really the hope factor that's really the hope factor that nigel's coming back. right. but actually if he does come back and gets traction and you start to see, i think there's some polls out already saying that they're ahead in with men in the midlands. and if you break it down, break it down. they're already leading in certain places. and i think the tory party have given up on they know going to so know they're going to lose. so they're trying focus on, you they're trying to focus on, you know, re—emergence or one nation soft tory, the mp for reigate, you know, was that kind of tory mp should be quite clear if nigel farage came to lead reform uk . i think ten, nigel farage came to lead reform uk. i think ten, i nigel farage came to lead reform uk . i think ten, i think ten uk. i think ten, i think ten tory mps will walk across the, the thing straight away and i think as well that that's part of his calculus. you know , mps of his calculus

well, there's richard tice there. we're going to have a summer election, actually.s just get on with it. >> you said it would have to be declared in two weeks. >> time to hit the 27th of june. it would have to be declared by. yes, by sort of mid—may. >> or it could be 5th of july. >> or it could be 5th of july. >> or it could be it could be the thursday, the 4th of july. >> and you really claim you're ready for. absolutely. >> we're ready. bring it on. >> we're ready. bring it on. >> we've done that. he's saying he's a robust richard tice who claims he's got the money. >> the members who won't tell me how many members he's got or who the money is from. but there we are. that's his commitment. this is britain's newsroom. alex has got your weather a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on . gb news. of weather on. gb news. >> hello. very good morning to you. here's your latest gb news weather update brought to you by the met office . many of us will the met office. many of us will see some decent sunshine today, although in the southeast here there is

and a lot of the richard tice.the conservatives, particularly after they picked up the reform. so a of particularly so a lot of reform, particularly after anderson defected. after lee anderson defected. and i the conservatives, i think also the conservatives, are going to be very wary of losing votes and they're losing those votes and they're going to reform. going to want to kick reform. you political are you know, political parties are tribal . and so when you tribal things. and so when you have a new rival emerging, you're not thinking , how do we you're not thinking, how do we do a pact and how do we buy them out? you're thinking how do we kick them? and do do we kick them? and how do do we defeat and i think really, kick them? and how do do we defea'going and i think really, kick them? and how do do we defea'going to lnd i think really, kick them? and how do do we defea'going to be i think really, kick them? and how do do we defea'going to be seeing really, we're going to be seeing that on both the divide both

now richard tice party is uk.s focusing on unresolved concerns over legal and illegal migration. they have gone to war today, officially, now reforming the tories. so who will win that war? okay could the tories be displaced? pollster and academic matthew goodwin wades in on that. and next. welcome back to patrick christys tonight. now coming up, could the snp's chilling hate crime bill spread south of the border? but first, richard tice tice has sensationally declared full scale war on the tories after an alarming war of words broke out over the weekend. so the conservative party chairman, richard holden, branded the reform uk leader a threatening bully. but when it comes to the polls , reform are winning the polls, reform are winning the battle, it seems, with the latest survey showing that tice's party could cost the tories a whopping 50 seats at the general and the next general election and a new report out today had shed some light on reform uk's success. they're tapping into the concerns. shock, the public c

uk leader richard tice. now tice is resurgent. stand a candidate against a tory in every constituency possible, but they're having a little bit of trouble with some candidate selections now. this weekend, reform was forced to drop two more of their election hopefuls and a over and suspend a third over a series offensive remarks made series of offensive remarks made online, including one slur, apparently about brown babies. now the party has dropped nine candidates for the upcoming election complaints election following complaints about comments on social about their comments on social media. look, welcome to media. richard look, welcome to the show. you know, i have to ask when it comes to fielding some candidates, like in south shropshire, a slew of shropshire, apparently a slew of comments posted online, some people that attenborough people saying that attenborough should be killed off brown babies was one of the jokes. there yeah, making derogatory comments there yeah, making derogatory commevery simple. we've >> it's very simp

take your] pick. >> richard tice . he's clearly >> richard tice.gullace. he saying, jonathan gullace. he was saying, we information we know embarrassing information about you. yeah, that one was kicking new deputy chairman kicking the new deputy chairman of yeah , exactly. >> yeah, exactly. >> yeah, exactly. >> but i think there's >> but look, i think there's been the past days and been over the past few days and really unfair focus on reform candidates because we're candidates because if we're going casting stones, going to start casting stones, what i don't sex, what about, i don't know, sex, you corruption , sex you know, sex, corruption, sex crimes amongst the tories. what about amongst about anti—semitism amongst labour mps? we don't need to start candidates in start looking at candidates in this . this way. >> i think we saw this with ukip, didn't we? back in the day 2015, amount of there 2015, 2016, the amount of there are wrong'uns amongst 2015, 2016, the amount of there are politiciansng'uns amongst 2015, 2016, the amount of there are poli

from ireland until france takes back channel migrants i'm joined now by the leader of reform, richard tice much. look very critical of the rwanda plan, which i understand. however, we started seeing clips of illegal immigrants saying they wish they had never come here because of rwanda. oh dream on.the here because of rwanda. oh dream on. the irish. well, they've seen it. and the irish saying that they were they're seeing floods of people who don't want to be sent to rwanda. it's working. no, it's not absolute nonsense, patrick. >> over 7000 illegal migrants have crossed the channel. this yeah have crossed the channel. this year. sadly, 15 or so have lost their lives doing so in the knowledge that in theory, they're going to be arrested, detained and deported to rwanda. so no, it's not a deterrent. and this nonsense with the republic, there's no evidence actually, of there's no evidence actually, of the numbers that the republic are claiming. but there is a huge irony. i mean , chris huge irony. i mean, chris heaton—harris jumping around as the northern ireland secretary saying that the de

richard tice thinks we can do it under. i thinks we can do it under.s the un convention of law of the seas, article 25 about innocent passage. you think we still would have a problem with the echr doing that? >> yeah. i mean, look, you know, i had alexander downer on the show this evening, the former foreign minister of australia, the former ambassador indeed to this country, and somebody who helped the british government. but but the point is this australia were genuinely sovereign. they weren't encumbered by this completely outdated three quarters of a century old european convention on human rights. and that complicates things in the most extraordinary way. and the one thing the government of this country will never do is go against what the courts, especially the supreme court, decide. so australia were they were freer to do what they did. now they still met with international condemnation. now the eu condemned them. we condemn them . the united nations condemn them. the united nations condemned them. they just bloomin did it. and after a fortnight

so richard tice has done a good job.think the when you see 15 points in the polls, that's really the hope factor that nigel's coming back right . hope factor that nigel's coming back right. but hope factor that nigel's coming back right . but actually if he back right. but actually if he does come back and gets traction and you start to see, i think there's some polls out already saying that they're ahead in with men in the midlands. that's right. >> if you break it down, break it down. >> they're already leading in certain places. and i think the tory party have given up on that. they know they're going to lose. they're to focus that. they know they're going to lose. know, �*e to focus that. they know they're going to lose. know, re—emergencers on, you know, re—emergence or one . on, you know, re—emergence or one . sorry. the mp one nation softer. sorry. the mp for reigate, you know, was that kind of tory mp. >> so he'd be quite clear if nigel farage came to lead reform uk. >> i think ten, i think ten tory mps will walk

. >> all out war the tory party chairman labels reform uk leader richard tice a threatening bully, as tice claims he has, and could release embarrassing personal information . on the personal information. on the tory deputy chairman, jonathan gullis. this comes as a shock poll shows reform could cost the tories up to 50 seats and as germany legalises the recreational use of cannabis . recreational use of cannabis. >> today we're asking should the uk follow suit? well, so this protest in edinburgh, outside holyrood is due to kick off at 1:00. we've got our scotland reporter outside holyrood waiting because there's a lot of anger about this new legislation. some people say this is progress. this is going to, you know, stop people from being vicious towards stop towards each other, stop stirring against stirring up hate against different on race, different groups based on race, genden different groups based on race, gender, whatever you say . gender, whatever else you say. >> gender, emily. but, you know, there's one characteristic that isn't explicitly protected in this legislation men,

the leader of the party, richard tice, is only mp.nderson can also present programmes in the run up to the campaign alongside jacob rees—mogg. is this your idea of impartiality? well, i wonder, nick robinson , well, i wonder, nick robinson, how impartial are you? i mean, you were a member, weren't you, of the conservative party in years gone by? i mean you very recently , very recently said in recently, very recently said in an interview with lord cameron, almost a programme you said, but when israel attacks and murders tens of thousands of innocent palestinians, and i could go back over the years and i could accuse you time and again of allowing your opinion to be expressed on the bbc. i don't think you're impartial either. i don't think any human being that works in news or current affairs is impartial. we all have our own personal opinion, but that's not the point. but have a look at what adam boulton said a few months ago. he of sky news, for over three decades. >> i think there is a delicate and important broadcast ecology in thi

. >> the other thing in mr galloway's favour, as the leader of reform uk, richard tice pointed out, is usual groups like hope not hate for example, aren't going to delve into his candidates are they? what their history is? they have a blind spot when it comes to that side of politics, so i suspect they'll probably get a free pass there. even if galloway's workers party of britain don't win seats, they could dent the labour vote significantly. okay, now you don't have to like george galloway. i know a lot of people don't . now, if you still don't don't. now, if you still don't think, though, that george galloway is a threat to keir starmer, what you have to ask yourselves is this who would win? in a debate between mr galloway and sir keir? let's get the thoughts of my panel this evening. i am joined by columnist and broadcaster esther krakue. i've also got jonathan gullace as well. the deputy chair of the tory party. and i've got author and broadcaster amy nicholson. look, jonathan, i'll start with you as the political head on the panel here. i think keir starmer is bangin here. i think

richard tice there's a couple things you couple of other things you mentioned. people on in the number of people on on high high high salaries and high remuneration packages, despite the seen the fact that we've seen inflation busting, tax inflation busting, council tax hikes and also the importance of transparency. actually transparency. and actually this year we've actually year we've we've actually reached milestone reached a sad milestone for where the first time, over 50 councils failed to publish councils have failed to publish their accounts, councils in their accounts, 59 councils in total. that's really, really total. and that's really, really troubling means, you know, troubling that means, you know, almost about of councils almost about a sixth of councils have failed to publish the key document that shows taxpayers and how they're and residents how they're spending their money and what they're spending it. >> so does that there may >> so does that mean there may be more than the 3000? because with find with these documents, you'd find other paid? oth

are you not tempted to maybe have a conversation with richard tice? has that happened yet?d. nigel, you know, all of them for years. i mean, i was there, fighting for brexit and back in sunderland on the leave means leave . i went to their means leave. i went to their conferences, spoke at their conferences. leave means leave . conferences. leave means leave. i was walking in sunderland with them try and, you know, them to try and, you know, theresa may's awful deal, stand up for brexit. so, so these are people i know and who are friends , but i feel very friends, but i feel very saddened about this wanting to destroy. i don't like the language. wanting to destroy. look we're all conservatives. let's get our act together. and actually stop this socialist starmer government who will will destroy our, our country and beyond recognition. you know, people think that there's not much difference between, conservative and labour at the moment , but conservative and labour at the moment, but just wait to see if they get in power. then people will remember. >> all right, well, look,

as my good friend and reform uk leader richard tice apologised after sacking an inactive candidate whourned out to be dead. i'll be honest, the political establishment are so useless these days on the left and the right. i'm wondering whether a dead candidate might do a betterjob. now reform uk have run urgent medical checks on all of their other candidates. blood pressure, pulse breathing and they are all found to be alive and well. for example, the prospective parliamentary candidate for eastbourne is the very talented abraham lincoln, who famously ended slavery and won the us civil war. and now the big man wants to bring down taxes and end wokery in our institutions . running taxes and end wokery in our institutions. running in shipley, elvis presley, the king of rock and roll, stopped people in their tracks with his incredible music . and now elvis incredible music. and now elvis is going to stop the boats wrong . the candidate for south devon is one. john lennon is going to axe net zero. he wants to give gas a chance and last but not least, jesus christ running in bradford west. f

actually, of belgium, he, has written x and said written on twitter x and said what happened at the richard ticehat was hosting that. it's unacceptable. basically, on about, basically, he goes on about, municipal autonomy as a cornerstone of our democracy, but can never, ever rule the, the belgium, constitution, guaranteeing the freedom of speech and peaceful assembly since 1830, banning political meetings is unconstitutional, . meetings is unconstitutional,. >> good for the prime minister of belgium, which is, of course, something i say all the time. >> what about this weird notion , >> what about this weird notion, this weird over use of the phrase right .7 because i feel phrase far right? because i feel that this just gets wheeled out all the time and basically what it means is people are just disagree with. i don't think it it does mean that, of course, any time can be used sloppily far left or hard left or far right or so on. >> they can be used sloppily . i >> they can be used sloppily. i do think that i haven't looked at the full guest list and everything that they have to say, but there

as my good friend and reform uk leader richard tice apologised after sacking an inactive candidate whourned out to be dead. i'll be honest, the political establishment are so useless these days on the left and the right. i'm wondering whether a dead candidate might do a betterjob. now reform uk have run urgent medical checks on all of their other candidates. blood pressure, pulse breathing and they are all found to be alive and well. for example, the prospective parliamentary candidate for eastbourne is the very talented abraham lincoln, who famously ended slavery and won the us civil war. and now the big man wants to bring down taxes and end wokery in our institutions . running taxes and end wokery in our institutions. running in shipley, elvis presley, the king of rock and roll, stopped people in their tracks with his incredible music . and now elvis incredible music. and now elvis is going to stop the boats wrong . the candidate for south devon is one. john lennon is going to axe net zero. he wants to give gas a chance and last but not least, jesus christ running in bradford west. f

richard tice posted this on to a conservative party deputy chairman, jonathan gullace , in response tothe mail article. given the multiple bits of embarrassing personal information we have on you, i suggest you pipe down on your attacks against me, richard holden, the conservative party chair, then responded saying this what a threatening bully richard tice is exposing himself to be silly man. it's all kicking off, isn't it? so what's going on? joining me now is former conservative minister and now reform supporter ann widdecombe. so why is it all kicking off ann? >> oh, because the tories are getting rattled. if you actually look at what has been happening over the last, say, six months, our position in the polls has been very steadily, now regularly at 14, one poll, even at 16, and each one putting us just a few points behind the tories. now they began off by dismissing us as they've realised that we're getting stronger and stronger. so they are getting more and more afraid. and so . what we're now afraid. and so. what we're now seeing, and i think we're going to see a lot more of it

. lot and vote for richard tice.and mark says, this just goes to show what a low calibre mps show what a low calibre of mps we at moment. can we have at the moment. how can they the they be trusted to run the country can't keep it country when they can't keep it in trousers? in their trousers? >> yeah, i mean, it's basic stuff. it'sjust, >> yeah, i mean, it's basic stuff. it's just, you it's stuff. it's just, you know, it's not well, not basic, it's not well, it's not basic, it's national security, you've national security, which you've been trained on. >> it does raise >> so but it does raise a question about the calibre of mps and the judgement of mps and how a better calibre of how we get a better calibre of mp. >> right. well, talking of mps, as new tax year gets as the new tax year gets underway, is it today or tomorrow, workers tomorrow, millions of workers are sorry, are receiving an int sorry, a national insurance from the national insurance cut from the sixth saturday. >> that's right. you your >> that's rig

, in part we don't, richard tice, the reasons of national security, all our layers of defence, some available and ready to scramble, but we also have other forms of defence as well. it's islands and other things which i can't go into. of course, we're always wanting, always reviewing this. ikeep wanting, always reviewing this. i keep a very close eye on what else we could be doing. the big difference between, say, the united kingdom and israel that was recently attacked is the uk is in nato. and article five of nato says that if one country is attacked, then the 31 others all immediately come to its assistance. and it's one of the reasons the nato countries don't tend to be attacked. in fact, never attacked , because of this. never attacked, because of this. so, it does mean that there we have an additional layer of protection, even over and above the immediate, physically obvious protection. but always keep that under review. always looking to do more, but britain is a force for good when it comes to not only our national defence, the jobs that brings, but also international defenc

it comes down to the, faulty selection process, which i think richard tice funny enough, has been really earlier today i saw him say, you know, they're going after mediocre people who are not going to challenge them, and they're not really, properly testing these people . they're testing these people. they're not really going for the best people at all. and it's, you know, but but there's a problem as well with parliament itself, i think. and when these individuals go off the rails, there's no support network. there's no way really to kind of keep them on, on track. and it goes very badly wrong. and it's not a conservative problem alone. it's it affects all the main parties. >> there are wrong'uns of all political colours in the house of commons. and as you said, many good mps too, from all parties. in fact, the vast majority , i think, work very majority, i think, work very hard and do a good job. i'm sure you'd bear that out, david, listen, clock's against us. i want to power through a couple of other quick questions whilst i've got you, first all, can i've got you, first of all, can w

because we need a clean sweep of political incompetence and we need a strong and clear leader which richard ticeng. not alone either in that one. meanwhile, lawrence says i cannot believe you in the studio cannot see how left wing this government is and it will be there to their detriment . be there to their detriment. well, i mean, you know what? i'm a bit confused about even what left wing and right wing is anymore. i you know, anymore. i mean, you know, people you know, people are people are you know, people are sort of like, you know, just normal conservatives are described these normal conservatives are descri i ed these normal conservatives are descri i ed like, these normal conservatives are descriied like, it's these normal conservatives are descriied like, it's an 1ese days. i mean, like, it's an insult. it's like it's, you know, it's confusing, isn't it? any case, it's time for tale any case, it's time for a tale as old time. star crossed as old as time. star crossed lovers , romeo juliet, he was lovers, romeo and juliet, he was a labour liberal. she was a conservative tory. can i make

the reform uk sort of denial, build a wall thing that's a big wall type thing that's that's what richard ticeasion and talk to him about that one. well, no one denies climate's changing, denies the climate's changing, but pounds or but how many more tax pounds or civil liberties do you want us to to, you know, to how many? >> how many do you want lose? >> how many do you want to lose? because. because the loss is going to be bigger than anything that that's the that we spend. and that's the point. and that's not just my words. the big words. that's deloitte. the big financial firm. they they know that this is going on. they're putting the cost into billions. and we're already seeing it around the world. eyes wide open, not eyes wide closed. we've got to be seeing what's going on, not just in our own country, which is kind of you know, sometimes it gets us, sometimes it doesn't. but that message in a bottle in, in message in in a bottle in, in dubai was, in effect, a massive, massive warning, by the way, because. go on, pip. sorry >> no, i was just going to say that when you go out and you tal

yeah, so, you know, an equal chunk of it's been going to reform under richard tice.oyen of political commentators, when he says it's a 99% certainty keir starmer is going to be the next prime minister, he's probably right. >> he probably is. thank you very much. >> are you with us tonight? >> are you with us tonight? >> i certainly am 7:00. i'll be there and watching this parliamentary ping pong. yeah. >> of rwanda, i mean, pitiful and pathetic . and pathetic. >> it's utterly futile, isn't it? >> but it's they know it's going to happen . to happen. >> like many things in circus, it doesn't stand for a lot, but it's quite amusing. okay. >> always entertaining. >> always entertaining. >> still to come, people will be able to sign themselves off for work. was it for minor illnesses using an nhs algorithm under plans to free up time for doctors? you won't be able to do that. we'll be discussing that and more next. >> 1122 with britain's newsroom on gb news. with andrew pierce and karen maloney. >> hello. i'm just reading all the views here. we've got we've got coming in.

i'm quite bizarrely , i was actually bizarrely, i was actually discussing this with richard tice thiser, you know, he didn't earn his nickname, flip flop for no reason. so, yeah, i can't think he can be fully trusted. and his political puppet masters brown, blair and mandelson have history in this area because after their landslide victory in 97, brown said that he would not touch pensions. but he removed the tax credit on dividends, which basically unstabilized the whole of the pension sector. so yeah, i don't think he can be trusted at all. and richard nye the, what we came to the conclusion quite the obvious one is it doesn't really matter what the politicians say . unless you the politicians say. unless you grow the economy, you're not going to be able to keep the triple lock there. so the key to this is growing the economy. and can they be trusted not to bankrupt it? well i'd like to hear some of the plans they have for growing the economy, which we don't seem to be hearing much of at all. >> dan. brian, you're there in hull. dan >> well, it's out of their hands, it's not really

. >> this is britain's newsroom gb news richard tice. >> 1117 the britain's newsroom.rd covid and gb news senior political commentator, nigel nelson. we're going to carry on talking katharine talking about katharine birbalsingh nigel, birbalsingh things when. nigel, with her. >> yes, i think it's absolutely right that a head teacher should decide how his or her school operates. yeah, so provided that you that you're banning prayer or any religious religious, penodsin or any religious religious, periods in school, for everybody . yeah. >> which she's done. >> which she's done. >> which she's done. >> which which she did. that is fine. if you don't want to send your child to that particular school, then you find a different school where you can go and pray . go and pray. >> and the judge in his ruling said that the student who took the case to court was fully aware of the school's rules when she and so , that's what she joined, and so, that's what i mean. >> you go you go to a different school. i mean, if you if you choose to go to a church of england school, you will ha

yeah, but i'm just thinking in terms of who would be prime minister, because it's not likely that richard ticeill become prime minister or nigel farage if he were to stand, either they're not going to win, they're going to have an impact, but not enough to become prime minister. so i'm just thinking of those two who are one of one of those two who are one of one of them is going to be prime minister which one do you want to see? yeah. >> keep them coming in and we'll keep a keep a close eye on that won't we? throughout the programme. yeah. now in a landmark legal ruling, disgraced hollywood film producer harvey weinstein has had his 2020 new york rape conviction overturned due to a crucial mistake made by the trial judge. yeah the court found he didn't get a fair trial after the judge called witnesses whose accusations were not part of the case against him. >> mr weinstein found guilty of raping and sexually assaulting two women, but is now entitled to a retrial . to a retrial. >> well, weinstein will remain in prison, though, after being convicted of a separate rape in los angeles. but the ex

we will speak to reform uk leader richard tice for his reaction and channel migrant deaths. >> at leastreat to the uk? >> as police charge a parliamentary researcher with espionage? we'll talk to former tory leader iain duncan smith about his encounter with the chinese wolf warrior and happy saint george's day. >> red crosses will fly high as crowds gather across england to celebrate their patron saint. we'll be live with a knees up in dartford . dartford. >> we'd love to hear what you think

we're joined now by richard tice, leader of reform uk.ch. why did you think it will not work?— think it will not work? all of -- ha - st think it will not work? all of -- happy st george's _ think it will not work? all of -- happy st george's day. - think it will not work? all of -- happy st george's day. all - think it will not work? all of -- happy st george's day. all of l think it will not work? all of -- l happy st george's day. all of the money spent, it will not be a deterrent. the numbers are up this year by a quarter, 6500 people have already made the perilous journey, tragically ten people have already died. the numbers will keep coming because the people making the journey will make the calculation that either lawyers will be able to prevent them going, or even if a few flights take off it might be a one in 21 in ten chance, they will take the chance because they know the uk is the most generous place for asylum seekers so they will keep taking the chance. this entire deterrent, all of this noise, this waist, 75,000 people cros

and you think , what on earth richard think, what on earth richard tice? yes.own that he had 72 teddies on his bed. he is obsessed with having teddy bears ever since he was a little boy. collected them in the navy and he does that. he does have them put round his room in a special order and on the bed in a special order, and he was shouting at the maid, and i thought, that's not really what this is all about. this is really about a producer and indeed a presenter coming up with a very good story, and also how hard we work . with a very good story, and also how hard we work. i mean, but you do know that you don't just ring someone up and say, will you come along? they say yes, even if they're well known. it's hard to have hard work. you have to have patience and patience and all that. and i thought that was very thought that bit was very interesting, there seems to interesting, but there seems to be of a between emily be a bit of a row between emily and sam because as, emily had a vast amount of money, 345,000 a yeah vast amount of money, 345,000 a year, and sam
