It follows delays caused by health and safety concerns , including the safety concerns, including the Firefighters Union, warning that the barge is a potential death trap. The use of the bibby stockholm , which is moored in stockholm, which is moored in portland , has also seen portland, has also seen significant local opposition. Significant local opposition. Well, meanwhile, multiple reports suggest that the government is considering plans to house people who arrive in the uk by unauthorised means on Ascension Island. The british Ascension Island. The british overseas territory is located overseas territory is located over 4000 miles from the uk in the atlantic ocean. It has a population of around 800 nonpersons residents. The nonpersons residents. The proposals are a possible plan b if the governments rwanda scheme fails , fines will triple scheme fails, fines will triple for businesses and landlord who knowingly support Illegal Migrants coming into the country. Under new government plans. Bosses who employ Asylum Seekers could face penalties of up to £60,000 per breach.

And home owners saw the average value of their property fall by nearly £1,000 between june and july , according between june and july, according to halifax. Values fell by 0. 3 to halifax. Values fell by 0. 3 to around £285,000. Now this marks the fourth monthly decline in a row you can get more on all of those stories by visiting our website, gbnews. Com now lets get back to bev and. Get back to bev and. Martin very good morning. Its 934. Thank you for joining me on Martin Daubney this morning on britains newsroom. So the first group of migrants are expected to be housed the bibby stockholm housed on the bibby stockholm today despite opposition today. They despite opposition from local groups. Yeah, the bar set to yeah, the bar is set to accommodate 500 male Asylum Seekers arrived at Portland Harbour last month after being tugged there from falmouth. Been widely reported its been widely reported this the government are this morning the government are drawing a plan b in case the drawing up a plan b in case the rwanda policy falls through and that mean illegal that would mean that Illegal Migrants could be sent the migrants could be sent to the Ascension Islands in the atlantic ocean. So to discuss this us is piers this with us now is piers pottinger. First of all, before pottinger. First of all, before we about the ascension we talk about the Ascension Islands, is really islands, it is a really interesting solution the interesting solution to the problem. Were going to see problem. Were going to see people get on the bibby stockholm theyre going stockholm today. Theyre going to goodie bags, a phone to be given goodie bags, a phone line phone. If they line for to phone. If they want to speak somebody. Your to speak to somebody. Your thoughts piers, and thoughts on that, piers, and particularly the people in particularly for the people in portland who are protesting are saying want this. Saying they do not want this. I can sympathise with well, i can sympathise with the portland because the people in portland because theyll scared and worried theyll be scared and worried about the kind of people who will be on the boat because not all of these immigrants who are going to be on the boat are by any means legal and i think its you know, its obviously something thats a last resort , something thats a last resort, although the boat has been used for similar purposes in germany. And i think italy as well, netherlands and the netherlands. Yeah but that doesnt mean i mean it shows the terrible position the governments in, the predicament theyve got it as to what to do with all the these Illegal Immigrants. These Illegal Immigrants. Pierce. Its barely a days worth of channel crossers who will be housed on there. But its a very public symbol, isnt it . And is that what is motivating rishi sunak . It shows that hes doing something well, it shows hes doing something, but it also shows the scale of the problem. I mean, you know, these hotels that are full of i think its around 57,000 immigrants are in these hotels that people are in these hotels that people are complaining about because they cant use the hotels for weddings and normal. Business so weddings and normal. Business so whatever the government does , whatever the government does, people complain. And i think thats why the Ascension Islands is quite an interesting plan b, its interesting because nobody wants this in the area. I spoke to susan phoenix earlier, whos organising the say no to the barge campaign in the local tory mp doesnt want it. The say no to racism. People dont want it. The refugees welcome dont want it because its going to place a huge strain. Guess what on the local Health Service. Oh who didnt see that coming . Well obviously the government i put it to you. This is the cataclysmic failure of state that we even have this in our country. Its a symptom of the fact that that rishi sunakis of the fact that that rishi sunak is singularly failing or one of his five pledges, and thatis one of his five pledges, and that is stop the boat. Yes. I mean , youre right. As yes. I mean, youre right. As i said , its a move of last i said, its a move of last resort. The bibby stockholm. But it again shows that dont forget that at every stage that everything the governments been trying to do, the labour party have opposed it and voted against it. And everyone complains about everything theyre trying to do. The fact is we cant keep taking in. I mean, last year the, the legal immigrants were 660,000. Thats effectively the size of manchester. And if we and you know this country is a small island and yet were taking in these huge numbers and we simply first of all, dont have room. Yes it puts a huge burden on already stretched Health Service and other Public Services and again, you know, rwanda is being blocked by the european courts, which in my view , is ridiculous. Which in my view, is ridiculous. But if we can go to another british territory , we like the british territory, we like the Ascension Islands, then it does make sense. But what do you think the 850 population, one of Ascension Islands, are going to say about this idea . I dont see say about this idea . I dont see them welcoming it with open arms either. Ehhen this was proposed, wasnt it . Piers, i think a couple of about to 2020 by by priti patel to use the Ascension Islands. Do we have any idea why it didnt get off the ground in that instance . I have no idea either, because, i mean, first of all, the Ascension Islands is incredibly small place its incredibly small place and its incredibly small place and its in middle of nowhere in the in the middle of nowhere in the south atlantic. I mean, we might south atlantic. I mean, we might be moving to the falkland be moving on to the Falkland Islands next. No hospital on the there is no hospital on the Ascension Islands. Are very few facilities there are very few facilities and georgetown , the capital, has and georgetown, the capital, has 450 People Living there at the moment. And if you think of moment. And if you think of suddenly landing even 100 people, thats going to have an enormous effect on on a very small community. But what is in its favour . Of course, its a British Sovereign territory and therefore its circumvents this this barrier of rwanda. A third Party Country. And one that has a poor human rights record, according to some. Yes it gets around that. And look, if we can build nightingale hospitals during covid, if we if we can tow a barge to portland, then we could get around the logistics of doing this. How ever its unlikely ever to get off the ground because weve got a general election coming around the corner. And by the way, stephen yesterday said the corner. And by the way, stewould yesterday said the corner. And by the way, stewould keep yesterday said the corner. And by the way, stewould keep thezsterday said the corner. And by the way, stewould keep the bibis|y said he would keep the bibis stockholm. Theyre all as bad stockholm. So theyre all as bad as other. As each other. Well, there are. I mean, well, there you are. I mean, on the one hand, party on the one hand, labour party say will keep the bibby say they will keep the bibby stockholm and they also say theyre relax theyre going to relax employment , which will employment laws, which will encourage more immigrants to come here, which is absolute insanity in my view, when weve got a major problem. And dont forget, a lot of these immigrants are coming from france, which as far as i know, is a safe country. And a democracy. What i would like to have a little more light shone upon, i think pearce is the fees that the government are paying some of these hotels because that is one of the reasons, the predominant reason why bibby predominant reason why the bibby stockholm taken into stockholm is being taken into port its cheaper and port is because its cheaper and i heanng port is because its cheaper and i hearing reports today of i was hearing reports today of some of hotels which some of these hotels which sometimes are very rundown that wed normally youd charge £50 a night for somebody to stay there. And when the government approaches these hotels, guess what . The price of a room goes up to £250 a night. Why is the government agreeing these sorts of crazy . Because theyre desperate. We are paying for i mean, theyre desperate. Thats the situation. As martin said. I thats the situation. As martin said. I mean, thats the situation. As martin said. I mean, the martin said. I mean, the immigration problem is a massive problem affecting all our other services. Its not just about Illegal Immigrants coming in because it goes beyond that. And were paying i think its £6 million a day of government money in these to these hotels as already. And thats a huge amount of money. The government isnt in a position to negotiate because theyve got to put these people somewhere. And as so many people somewhere. And as so many groups and individual communities dont want them, its very hard. I mean, youve its very hard. I mean, youve got an absurd situation where were obliged to look after these people in a country where these people in a country where the entire population really doesnt want them. Doesnt want them. But when you think about hotel owners who will be on their yachts, this summer because the government is paying £250 a night, precisely when you put it against that backdrop, actually, a barge that is cheaper and that nobody is privately profiteering for. Well somebody will be. Its more of an appealing option, isnt it . And also serco, 30,000 Asylum Seekers in private accommodation paid for above market rates by the government . No, by the taxpayers . Absolutely. By the taxpayer. Exactly right. Thank you , pearce, for now. Thank you, pearce, for now. Sticking with the theme of illegal migration, fines are set to triple for employers and landlords who knowingly support illegal under new Illegal Immigrants under new rules announced by the home office. Yeah, were the biggest shake up of Civil Penalties since 2014. Government hopes the government hopes to target significant pull factors and britains and overhaul britains reputation for being soft. Reputation for being soft. So Trevor Kavanagh is a Political Columnist at the sun and joins us now. Good morning, trevor. Great to see you. Just explain to us a little bit about these fines and who they would be focussed upon and what kind of figures are we talking about . Well were talking about 6000, several thousand pounds a time for those who repeatedly flout the rules about employing known Illegal Immigrants or failing to carry out proper checks that they could easily do make sure that theyre not Illegal Immigrants and repeat offenders will be fined more as they continue to be caught and charged. But the biggest problem here, i think, as in many things to do with immigration , ian, is the with immigration, ian, is the policing of it. I mean, these are ideas which could easily have been introduced a long time ago. Why wait now until the elections on the on the horizon and everyones frantically trying to prove that they will do something about immigration in begin to really take these sort of tough measures like the bibby stockholm, like these fines on migrants and like suddenly Ascension Island. It does seem like trying to shut the stable door after the horses are well and truly bolted. Yeah. Are well and truly bolted. Yeah. Trevor so the sort of numbers involved £45,000 for an illegal worker on their first breach, up from 15 grand for landlord. So from 15 grand for landlord. So there would be £1,000 for the first breach up from up to £5,000 or even ten grand over time. But heres a bitter irony. Time. But heres a bitter irony. The biggest landlord of Asylum Seekers in britain is the government. Its serco. And if government. Its serco. And if those people are found to be working illegally , as we saw on working illegally, as we saw on gb news, we did a sting at one car wash in aldershot. What happens . Does the government find themselves well . This is one of the great anomalies of the whole debate. This has been raging now for more than 20 years with people coming in illegally and indeed legally in very, very large numbers into a country which cannot accommodate them either with housing or health. And social care and suddenly with an election on the horizon, were panicking. And the all the dots panicking. And the all the dots dont join up. And as you say, suddenly the government finds itself having to pay a fortune in for accommodation or put them on barges which are perhaps psychologically unpopped. Yeah, psychologically unpopped. Yeah, but this this range of the right across the whole area of Government Operations and logistics. For instance, just as logistics. For instance, just as an aside, heat pumps dont need to cost the thousands of pounds that the government is being charged by them simply because they subsidise the installation. The same applies to such things as illegal immigration. We know who they are. They come into the country and they are allowed to disappear into society and form a sort of a black market, a sort of shadow economy. And many of them are criminals. They have to be criminals even to arrive on our shores. The moment they set foot on our shores, theyve broken the law. Broken the law. Your piece in the sun today, trevor has a very punchy opening. It says under under starmer britain risks becoming the rest of the worlds rwanda, a safe haven for immigrant gangsters and criminals. So if you wouldnt mind just elaborating upon that image a little bit. Little bit. Well, the only solution to illegal immigration that the labour party and indeed the liberal party are prepared to offer is to facilitate more of these Illegal Migrants making these Illegal Migrants making the journey across the channel legally by giving them the sort of visas they need, either at the point of departure or somewhere en route through either africa or into europe. So either africa or into europe. So in other words, its an open door policy and so as well, in the meantime , um, the rest of the meantime, um, the rest of europe is waking up to the Serious Problems socially and in some cases criminally of illegal immigration. And theyre beginning to shut the door and send them home while we under labour, send them home while we under labour , as far as the policies labour, as far as the policies that labour is prepared to confess to so far are going to offer an open door policy. Offer an open door policy. Trevor there was a story in the papers at the weekend, an absurd story almost of albanians charging three grand to get criminals out of britain. Back to france to evade justice. Theres also a story of a criminal human trafficker whod fled britain on bail. 10,000 illegals. He got over. He simply disappeared in germany, thanks to open border policy. Are we ever going to get a grip on this or do you think were so deep in the reeds on this . Were simply going to have to live with open borders as well. You have to admire the criminals, entrepreneurial inventiveness , dont inventiveness, dont you . I mean, they quite quick on mean, they are quite quick on their feet. They can spot a gap in and how to fill it in the market and how to fill it not they bring the not only do they bring the criminal albanian criminal gangs here, help them to here, but they help them to escape actually commit escape once they actually commit a crime and are on the wanted list. I dont think, frankly, that we are going to solve this. We are in a position to solve it simply because were an island. But the whole of europe is now waking up to two late to the wholesale numbers just pouring into the countries and not necessarily becoming good migrant citizens. Um, i mean, i migrant citizens. Um, i mean, i lived in australia for some years and ive frequently visit family there. So ive seen the changes that have happened in australia where you cannot, if you want to live in in australia, you have to apply from the country you are in. And if you arrive in australia and decide you want to stay illegally, they will send you home and you can reapply from home. These sorts of things are soluble. Its the its the soluble. Its the its the political will that has been lacking for the last two decades as thank you so much forjoining us. Us. Trevor kavanagh there very famous renowned columnist from the sun newspaper. Hes been around forever. Hes a hes a legend. Hes a hes a legend. No offence, trevor. Youve been around forever. No offence, trevor. Youve been around forever. No. You mean hes been around for decades fantastic service. Decades of fantastic service. But speaks truth to power and but he speaks truth to power and hes dead right on this. Bev, i just think that the political will isnt there. Theyre spineless. Yeah thats what i think its. And this. This topic is not going away like three of our main stories. This morning are about know its about this and we know its important you at home. Important to you at home. Vaiews gbnews. Com is the email address. You address. Let us know what you think now. Sutton council think right now. Sutton council in south london has come under fire for introducing a higher Parking Charges for people who use cash rather than their mobile app. Sometimes you cant believe the stories youre reading out anyway. The council say its due to the rising cost of providing the machines. Yeah, of course it is. Machines. Yeah, of course it is. Well, paul hawkins in well, paul hawkins is in sutton this morning. Sutton for us this morning. Paul sutton for us this morning. Paul, this just blatant paul, this is just blatant discrimination against people who dont want to always go out with a smartphone in their pocket, isnt it . How are the locals greeting it . Yeah, well , local a locals greeting it . Yeah, well, local a mixed opinion , i would say. And indeed opinion, i would say. And indeed the rac are echoing your view, bev, which is that theyre calling it discrimina free. The government say that it is digitally excluding certain people who want to use cash or who dont want to use a smartphone. Just to give you an smartphone. Just to give you an idea of the Parking Charges, this is in south london where we are in carshalton, which is part of the london borough of sutton. So to an hour , £3 if you so its up to an hour, £3 if you use the app, if you want to use cash, which is, by the way, the machine an which does take cash if you want to use the app, though, it is 80 less. So its more if you use cash less if you use the app. But london borough use the app. But london borough of sutton do say that it costs to maintain these machines and it costs as well to move the cash around. So they have to pass those costs on. They also say that they have some of the lowest Parking Charges in london and that there is a phone number that you can call if you dont want to use the app and you want to use your card. And that still gives you the discounted rate. Should be said, though we were looking phone number looking for that phone number and is where it is. Theres and this is where it is. Theres the phone numberjust there. You can phone app which is can phone the app which is called ringo, and instead you can get the discounted rate without the app. Without having to use the app. But it is quite small, it has to be said. So thats kind of the state of affairs here in the london borough of sutton. As state of affairs here in the lonwere orough of sutton. As state of affairs here in the lonwere saying, of sutton. As state of affairs here in the lonwere saying, we sutton. As state of affairs here in the lonwere saying, we think. As state of affairs here in the lonwere saying, we think that as we were saying, we think that this is of the first this is one of the first councils, if not first councils, if not the first council, certainly england, council, certainly in england, thats of thats giving these kind of different charging rates depending on how you pay. Thank you much, okay. Thank you very much, paul okay. Thank you very much, paul. You will know at home. Paul. As you will know at home. Thanks, paul. We have got a campaign. Dont kill cash, of which we are very proud. And at which we are very proud. And at the moment we have 245,000 signatures. Thats right. So just 5000 more signatures for quarter of a million. You know what to do. I think theres a qr code. Get on the screen there. If not, go to gb news dot com. Please get involved. This is a campaign thats really driving political change, making the banks stand up and take nofice the banks stand up and take notice and highlighting these stories. I just cannot believe they to tiny phone they expect to find a tiny phone number the back of a machine number on the back of a machine and, you on your hands and and, you know, on your hands and knees, in the wind. Knees, in the rain, in the wind. Pensioners its outrageous. I was talking to an elderly gentleman the other day who said he now cant cant go in his car to his local town because he doesnt have he doesnt have a smartphone. Smartphone. And he said so therefore, hes housebound by, you know, to all intents and purposes, the bus route in that area is not good. There isnt any other way. He has to catch a lift. So thats just heartbreaking. Thats just heartbreaking. It is. And if you think that society used to stand good and stand firm by the elderly, the infirm , the disabled, this sort infirm, the disabled, this sort of stuff, you know, slams those people simply because they dont want a smartphone. It should be a choice. Thats its always about thats it. Its always about choice, isnt it . So if youre on social media to tweet, dont exit. Tweet it. All right. Tweet exit. Tweet it. All right.

Barge in dorset later on today. Those watching on tv can see live footage of the gangway that theyll be using to enter the vessel. It follows delays caused by health and safety concerns, including the Firefighters Union, warning that its a potential death trap. The use of the bibby stockholm, which is more made in portland, has also seen significant local opposition safeguarding minister sarah dines told us its justified despite the concerns. Justified despite the concerns. Is anything like this where a large groups of migrants are congregated is never popular , congregated is never popular, which is why we have to stop the crisis in the channel. But we cant do that by having the pull factors of having Wonderful Hotels, being used for Illegal Migrants who have travelled through several safe countries to get here. Lets not forget that Shadow International trade secretary Nick Thomas Symonds does not agree. He told us how labour would stop the small boat arrivals. What we will be doing is driving down that asylum backlog. Well do that. Firstly by using the £140 million the governments currently spent on rwanda plan, which has sent more home secretaries to rwanda than people to actually have a cross border policing unit to try and bust the model of the people smuggling gangs so that fewer people end up in the English Channel on that dangerous crossing in the first place. Well, meanwhile , multiple well, meanwhile, multiple reports suggest that the government is considering plans to house people who arrive in the uk by unauthorised means on Ascension Island and the british overseas territory is located overseas territory is located over 4000 miles from the uk in the atlantic ocean. It currently houses two military bases and has a population of around 800 non permanent residents. The non permanent residents. The proposals are a possible plan b if the governments rwanda scheme fails. Fines will triple scheme fails.

This is gb news across the uk on tv in your car, on Digital Radio, and on your Smart Speaker by saying play gb news now lets go back to martin and. Bev to martin and. Bev good morning. Now the first group of migrants are expected to be housed on the bibby stockholm barge in the coming days, despite opposition from local groups. Boats set accommodate the boats set to accommodate 500 seekers arrived 500 male Asylum Seekers arrived at Portland Harbour last month after being tugged there from falmouth. Falmouth. It has been widely reported this the government this morning the government are drawing plan b if the drawing up a plan b if the rwanda policy falls through and the Illegal Migrants would be sent Ascension Island in sent to the Ascension Island in the ocean. Sent to the Ascension Island in the okay, ocean. Sent to the Ascension Island in the okay, lets ean. Sent to the Ascension Island in the okay, lets cross live now to okay, lets cross live now to dorset, and security dorset, our home, and security editor white is there. So, editor mark white is there. So, mark, whats the latest . Rumours that the first guests, inmates call them what you like may be there today. Any evidence of that . And how is that landing with the locals . With the locals . Well, weve had quite a few false starts with the bibby barge. I feel like this false starts with the bibby barge. I feel like this is a bit of a second home for me, but i think today we are going to get the first 50 or so migrant arriving here on the bibby stockholm. Sources telling me stockholm. Sources telling me now that that first group of channel migrants are on the move. They were given notification on from the hotels that theyre in at the moment, that they were going to be moved to new accommodation. And from what i understand and the transport is now underway is now moving towards portland where theyve actually come from and how long it will take that transport to get to portland. I dont know. But some point today certainly we believe the first migrants will be in to this barge. And of course , its still called course, its still called causing a great deal of upset here in portland. Local people who believe that this is just not the right place to have this barge also concerned about the conditions, as are human Rights Groups and lawyers representing some of the migrants, claiming that its cruel and inhumane. That its cruel and inhumane. Well, ive been on board this barge. I wouldnt describe it as barge. I wouldnt describe it as cruel and inhumane. There are plenty of facilities on board. The cabins are fairly spacious , the cabins are fairly spacious, even though these are bunk beds. And within each of the cabins they all have en suite bathrooms and storage areas for their belongings and lots of amenities on board from gyms to games, rooms to tv rooms to outside sporting areas for those that are on board the bibby stockholm to occupy themselves with. We to occupy themselves with. We also spoke a little earlier to the Home Office Minister sarah dines , who defended the move to dines, who defended the move to putting those migrants on the bibby stockholm. Bibby stockholm. We need to send a message across the world that coming to the United Kingdom illegally doesnt mean youre going to get into a very comfortable hotel. The stockholm is just one the bibby stockholm is just one of a wide range of measures that were bringing in to move people out of hotels. Were spending over £6 million a night. Its just not acceptable. We need to use this sort of basic but perfectly appropriate accommodation. And we have live accommodation. And we have live cameras, shots now down looking at the area at the entrance to Portland Harbour as we await a busload, the first bus load of these migrants is to say the breaking news that gb news can confirm is that those first group of migrants, we believe, are now en route to this location. Quite how long it will take them, we dont know as yet. Theres another camera looking at the bibby stockholm farage itself. Of course, the gangways up into that barge. So we should up into that barge. So we should be able to get a look at those that are coming here. The first arrivals, 50 or so to begin with. But in the months ahead , that. But in the months ahead, that number, the home office says will grow to around 500. Mark, we know that the government tried to cure late, where possible images of Asylum Seekers landing on our shores is today the sort of day where theyre opening their arms to theyre opening their arms to the press and saying, come and see what measures we are taking or are they being careful about the images in case it depicts us as a soft touch . As a soft touch . You know, i think thats a really good point. Ive noticed over recent months, the way in which the home office have been trying to manage the access to the arrivals across the English Channel. So in the sense that we used to be able to get right down to dover harbour, you could see those arriving coming up the gangway and going into the process Nursing Centre there. Well now theyve closed that off. Theyve moved conveniently to another Processing Centre that just happens to be at a quay thats not accessible in the harbour. So were stuck on a clifftop overlooking dover harbour, making it much more difficult, especially on days when the air the visibility isnt as clear to get the shots of them coming across. However this is different today. Clearly they want or are not opposed to our cameras being both here and then down towards the front of then down towards the front of the harbour because it gives them that that sort of image , if them that that sort of image, if you like, of taking control of this situation, of moving away from these murderously expensive hotels, costing. £6 million a hotels, costing. £6 million a day into more basic, but they say safe accommodation. So yes , say safe accommodation. So yes, its a good story for them. Its a good story for them. Youre absolutely right there, bev. I think this is one that theyre not too unhappy about us filming today. Okay. Thank you, mark. Fascinating. Mark white there down at portland. Charlie rowley down at portland. Charlie rowley is with us this morning. Down at portland. Charlie rowley is with us this morning. A man is with us this morning. A man who knows about these things. I who knows about these things. I wanted to ask mark that question because i cant work out whether today would be. No, let me rephrase that. I think rishi sunak sees this as a Success Story, but i think hes not reading the room because people see as just see this as us just accommodating greater and greater numbers as opposed to actually fixing the problem. Well , i actually fixing the problem. Well, i think hopefully people will as a success people will see it as a Success Story where for the first time weve able to weve actually been able to intercept people that are trying to this country to come into this country illegally. Not coming illegally. Theyre not coming into the shores of the uk. Theyre not being put up in hotels at cost of several hotels at the cost of several was saying there. The immigration minister that from the at £6 million a the home office at £6 million a day to uk. Day to the uk. Do you feel youve seen figures of how much this is going to knock off our bill . The bibby because i dont bibby stockholm, because i dont think seen clear think ive ever seen any clear auditing of the that, you auditing of the fact that, you know, 50 of them may be being bused from b bs this bused from their b bs this morning, knock on the bused from their b bs this morn pack knock on the bused from their b bs this morn pack your knock on the bused from their b bs this morn pack your bag. Nock on the bused from their b bs this morn pack your bag. Youre1 the door. Pack your bag. Youre going were going going to portland. Were going to a goodie bag. Im to give you a goodie bag. Im going to you some pens and going to give you some pens and papen going to give you some pens and paper. Youre going to have a lovely time. Youre going to teach. Cricket and all teach. You play cricket and all sorts things. What sorts of things. Thats what were hearing. Im not were hearing. But im not seeing of how much seeing the figures of how much cheaper to make cheaper this is going to make that bill. Well, there will be a cost and it will be, i imagine, significant one. But its the cost stopping coming significant one. But its the cost the ;topping coming significant one. But its the cost the country. Coming significant one. But its the cost the country. Its coming significant one. But its the cost the country. Its the oming into the country. Its the stopping continued of stopping the continued cost of putting in hotels. Putting people up in hotels. Its continued cost that you its the continued cost that you lose society of the lose to society because of the illegal immigration that comes into the breakdown illegal immigration that comes intwithin the breakdown illegal immigration that comes intwithin communities. � eakdown illegal immigration that comes intwithin communities. � eakd so n in within communities. And so its vital its absolutely vital that i think it is sending a message that anybody that tries to attempt come the uk, you attempt to come into the uk, you will be detained, you will be put places like bibby put up in places like bibby stockholm get stockholm and you wont get a free into the uk. Free pass into the uk. I love you, but come charlie, i love you, but come on mate, this isnt a this is not deterrent. Better not a deterrent. Thats better than any ferry i ever went on as a kid to france when i used to take holidays, we never got take my holidays, we never got a room. We never a gym. We room. We never got a gym. We slept the floor rolled slept on the floor and rolled around with a. Ends on the floor. So this isnt, i think, a deterrent. And also i think the bibby represents bibby stockholm represents a carbuncle, a stain on britain. I really, do that. Really, really do that. Its come this. These come to this. And also these people get vip Health People will get vip health treatment. Had a local on treatment. We had a local on from no to the barge from the say no to the barge campaign. You see in campaign. You could see them in those shots protesting those shots earlier protesting at point, saying at the arrival point, saying they get a dental they cant get a dental appointment six weeks, they appointment for six weeks, they cant appointment for cant get a gp appointment for eight weeks on board. That thing there. Vip health there. They will have vip health care. People are cheating care. These people are cheating the. Theyre gaming the the system. Theyre gaming the system getting to the system. Theyre gaming the systfront getting to the system. Theyre gaming the systfront of getting to the system. Theyre gaming the systfront of the getting to the system. Theyre gaming the systfront of the queue. Ting to the system. Theyre gaming the systfront of the queue. The to the front of the queue. The bibby stockholm. Ill put it to you. Know youre trying to put you. I know youre trying to put a gloss on this. A positive gloss on this. I think it represents a visual representation of our utter failure control our borders. Failure to control our borders. Well, i dont disagree. I mean, i think youre absolutely right. There are people that for too long have gone into the country that have cheated the system, that are effectively, as you say, getting the you rightly say, getting to the front services. Front of our Public Services. But because of failure but its because of the failure over so years and for over so many years and for whatever and successive whatever reasons and successive home to home secretaries have tried to sort grapple issue, sort of grapple with this issue, successive have successive governments have tried the issue tried to grapple with the issue and they havent succeeded. It is exactly why government, is exactly why the government, i think, approach think, is taking the approach that by having bibby that it is by having bibby stockholm, by obviously continuing the fight in the courts rwanda off the courts to get rwanda off the ground. I put like ground. If i can put it like that, because for too long the country hasnt been able to deal with issue. So will be with this issue. So it will be a cost. It will take time. There will be fights in the courts, but its getting on top of the issue matters of issue that matters to a lot of people. Its the prime ministers fifth priority, stopping because it stopping the boats because it matters right across matters to people right across the country. Matters to people right across the cou1papers full today of the papers are full today of this this rumour about the ascension this be Ascension Islands. This could be used as a base if rwanda falls through and we never manage to get planes off the ground get those planes off the ground that seekers are that once Asylum Seekers are land shore, we would land on this shore, we would put them boat and take them them in a boat and take them back 4000 miles or perhaps on an aeroplane , i guess, great aeroplane, i guess, at great expense to taxpayer. Take expense to the taxpayer. Take them to this them back 4000 miles to this tiny Little Island to process them there. This isnt a new idea, though, is it . This was under priti patel originally, i think, 2020. Thats absolutely right. Its thats absolutely right. Its not first time weve heard not the first time weve heard this. It comes up sort of periodically and look, its the government, its government, whether its something government is something the government is actually whether actually considering, whether its an alternative its something as an alternative to something will to rwanda or something that will accompany scheme. Accompany the rwanda scheme. Its i think, you its something that i think, you know there to make sure know, is out there to make sure that the government trying that the government are trying to ways of dealing with to find ways of dealing with this problem. Theyre coming up with they work, with ideas, whether they work, whether they dont. But because just point, again , just to your point, again, martin, it is the martin, you know, it is the number one issue for people in this and the government this country and the government has governments have has successive governments have failed to get a grip on it. So all welcome at this all ideas are welcome at this stage, just making sure stage, but its just making sure that you can have the tools at your it, your disposal to deal with it, i would say in its merit. Its a British Sovereign territory. So therefore were allowed there allowed to take people there without worry about without having to worry about the rights issues of the human rights issues of a third Party Country all of third Party Country and all of that. There are scant few resources but we showed resources there, but we showed where theres a will like during covid, nightingale covid, we built nightingale hospitals out of thin air overnight so we could build facilities there. But it wont happen, it . It wont happen happen, will it . It wont happen for reasons. First for a number of reasons. First of all, the lawyers and the same old refuseniks , the cronies, old refuseniks, the cronies, keir lawyers , everybody keir starmer lawyers, everybody will full gung against it, will go full gung against it, irrespective of its merits. And secondly , were coming towards secondly, were coming towards a general election , which seems at general election, which seems at the moment to be blowing towards a labour government. That may or may not happen, but the Labour Party Said they agree with bibby stockholm they dont have any ideas either. So with that being too downbeat, can any of them stop this or are we just now having to deal with the fact we are an open borders nation . Well, it seems to me that the labour are just late to labour party are just late to the party as you the party because, as you rightly for too rightly said, martin, for too long been getting the long when weve been getting the immigration bill through the house was labour house of commons, it was labour that trying to block that that were trying to block that bill to any kind of answer bill to stop any kind of answer to problem that that we to this problem that we that we face now. Now the labour party face now. Now the labour party is saying actually, yes, is saying that actually, yes, theyll, theyll get on board with it, theyll deal the with it, theyll deal with the infrastructure in infrastructure thats put in place party has been place because no party has been able come the ideas able to come up with the ideas that we need to get a grip on this. And i just think, look, you know, if you are i mean, twitter went very quiet over the weekend left because, as weekend on the left because, as you have decided you say, labour have now decided that this is a real that actually this is a real issue it does people, issue and it does affect people, whether whether whether its actually whether youre their your youre in portland, their your Close Community next to bibby stockholm youre stockholm or whether youre in a red seat that is affected. Red wall seat that is affected. Immigration people. Immigration matters to people. This this other immigration this this this other immigration story is the story this morning, this is the robert announcement that Robert Jenrick announcement that the who is the immigration minister, who is now putting the focus on people who house or illegally employ Illegal Migrants, pay them cash. Whether thats working in a nail bar, working in a cafe , nail bar, working in a cafe, cleaning or whatever it is , cleaning or whatever it is, these fines will triple to up to £60,000 per employee. Obe that feels like a huge deterrent. But feels like a huge deterrent. But whos going to do those jobs , whos going to do those jobs, charlie who is going to do because the problem at the moment is we have a lot of british people who wont clean toilets. Yes, youre absolutely right. And i think look, i think first of all, i think on these proposals, i think its absolutely the right thing to do because you dont want to have a pull factor and you dont want to give a signal that if you manage to get slip through the net and you come to this country, that youll be presented job. And so i presented with a job. And so i think is the responsibility think it is the responsibility of everybody to tackle this problem of the length of problem because of the length of time its to get time that its taken to get a grip on it. So whether youre an employer, whether youre a landlord, youre renting landlord, whether youre renting out spare or out your your spare room or whether owner whether youre an owner occupier, know, fines occupier, you know, those fines will rightly so. But will treble and rightly so. But i will be way in i think there will be a way in which obviously people that do come country legally come into this country legally that work visa can that want a work visa that can apply work, they can apply for work, they can absolutely do those jobs. But its having the balance its about having the balance between that between deterring people that come country illegally, come into the country illegally, stopping people getting jobs that country that come to the country illegally that can illegally versus those that can apply come into the apply that do come into the country legally and therefore have clear, i didnt want to be clear, i didnt want that question sound like its that question to sound like its okay for people are employed okay for people who are employed illegally the jobs illegally to want to do the jobs that british born that british, british born people to people dont want to do. Well, im sure if they well, im not sure if they dont want to do it. It goes back to the heart of the brexit referendum, and that was weve become to cheap foreign become addicted to cheap foreign laboun become addicted to cheap foreign labour, be it in labour, you know, be it in factories, cleaners, factories, be it cleaners, nannies, it, the nannies, you name it, the service industry. That, service industry. And that, i think, why labor party is think, is why the labor party is so vehemently kind of sitting on the usual, you know, the fence as usual, you know, scampton bum starmer scampton fence up bum starmer because on the one hand they they want cheap labour and we always said on the brexit side of things, pay british workers more money to do those jobs and they will do them, get them off benefits, in the benefits, get them in the workplace, relying workplace, stop relying on immigrants. Workplace, stop relying on immigrayes. I mean, its just a yes, yes. I mean, its just a you know , a thing in the labour you know, a thing in the Labour Market that you cant obviously force dodi go to work. I mean, you can do things if you looked at freezing their benefits, but, you benefits, but. Exactly. But, you know , immigration itself is not know, immigration itself is not a thing. You know, are a bad thing. You know, we are a successful country because of migration of legal migration and because of legal migration and because of legal migration and because of legal migration and our community. And as a uk, we are strengthened because of it. But when its legal and people welcome others from other Different Countries to come into the uk, everybody will give them the support they need. When cheat need. But its when people cheat the know, we are the system. You know, we are a fair country. You know, the uk is the fairest countries in the world weve our world and weve exported our parliament, our parliament, weve exported our but the speed of but its volume and the speed of immigration that was always the issue, particularly 2016 immigration that was always the issu� before cularly 2016 immigration that was always the issu� before when 2016 immigration that was always the issu� before when those 2016 and before when those communities were never listened to places boston, skegness, communities were never listened to |around boston, skegness, communities were never listened to |around iuk.

And i think those are the protesters, mark. So spoke earlier to a yeah, so i spoke earlier to a lady called dr. Phoenix. Lady called dr. Susan phoenix. She runs the say no to the barge campaign, a group of passion , campaign, a group of passion, locals, mothers , daughters, just locals, mothers, daughters, just passionate locals whove been saying from the very beginning this was simply overwhelm Public Services 500 military aged men. Weve got something in front of the camera. Theyre coming to a community of just 12,000. And the irony being , bev, of course, the irony being, bev, of course, is that even the anti racist portland anti racist didnt want it there because theyre saying the same thing as the locals and that it will overwhelm the local community. They did everything they could to stop this on both sides and thats clearly about to fail. To fail. Youve been getting in touch at home. Susan said the at home. Susan has said the boats stop in the channel boats must stop in the channel money be sent extra money should be sent on extra border and taking border force patrols and taking the migrants back to france. Ive never life heard of ive never in my life heard of this scenario. Susan says. This whole scenario. Susan says. I lived in south africa for years and thought i was years and i thought i was returning a first world returning to a first world country law order country where law and order prevails pensioners prevails and pensioners are taking care of. Prevails and pensioners are tak yeah. Re of. Prevails and pensioners are tak yeah. And. Prevails and pensioners are tak yeah. And theresa echoes the yeah. And theresa echoes the point please stop calling these people seekers. They are people Asylum Seekers. They are illegal turn them Illegal Immigrants. Turn them around send them back around and send them back to france. If stop giving them france. If we stop giving them money accommodation , they money and accommodation, they will here. The british will not come here. The british citizens first. Agree more except i couldnt agree more except that last year i think about 10,000 who applied were 10,000 of those who applied were afghanistan. Afghanistan so they had been partly at times helping the British Government in afghanistan. There were people who have a genuine claim to claim to asylum, and i cant help but think why, if there are certain countries like afghanistan that we allow people to stay, why arent we processing them incredibly quickly , getting them in the quickly, getting them in the system . Let them make their own money and pay for their own way . Well theres an afghan resettlement scheme which they could these people could apply to, but these people are a dinghy are arriving on a dinghy illegally. Difference. Illegally. Big difference. Yeah, good musk good point. Now, elon musk moving on. Waiting for moving on. We are waiting for those live from those pictures live from portland. Will you portland. And we will bring you them they happen. Them as soon as they happen. Elon has said that until elon musk has said that until five minutes ago was known as twitter. Pay the legal twitter. Will pay the legal bills anyone whos been bills of anyone whos been unfairly an employer unfairly treated by an employer for something they posted for something that they posted on media site. On the social media site. Well, musk financial musk said that the Financial Assistance be limitless. Well, he has got deep pockets, well lehane pockets, bev. Well mark lehane is from centre for policy is from the centre for policy studies and joins us now. Mark, just explain to us because therell be some viewers who maybe arent on any social media what what is the purpose of twitter and what kind of things could people say on there that might get them in trouble with employer . Of all . Well, good morning. Thanks for having me on. And im to going refer to it as twitter still and not x if thats okay, because i still cant get my head around change. Listen, head around the change. Listen, it would appear that a small but significant number of people have of different have for a variety of Different Reasons trouble reasons got in trouble with their employers because theyve either written stuff on social media, facebook and so media, twitter, facebook and so on employers have on that their employers have decided hateful or decided was hateful or untasteful, that werent untasteful, or that they werent happy have been. Happy with it could have been. Weve cases teaching weve seen cases where teaching assistants or teachers have written saying theyre assistants or teachers have written about aying theyre assistants or teachers have written about gender1eyre assistants or teachers have written about gender ideology or worried about gender ideology or trans children in schools and what are about what schools are doing about that. People that. Weve had people expressing about the expressing concern about the black Matters Movement and black lives Matters Movement and stuff that. All sorts of stuff around that. All sorts of things have going on and things have been going on and weve seen cases where people have called their have been called in by their bosses and thats not on. Bosses and said, thats not on. And theyve either done an informal been informal warning, theyve been warned in worst warned off it, or in worst cases, people have even cases, some people have even lost jobs about it. So lost theirjobs about it. So i think elon musk wading in on this potentially really big this is potentially a really big move. Hes the richest man on the planet. Put a lot the planet. He could put a lot of behind this. Of of money behind this. And of course, Good Business for course, its Good Business for him this as because him to do this as well because he wants people to use his social platform. And if social media platform. And if people in trouble people are getting in trouble for thats not a good for using it, thats not a good thing for either. Thing for him either.

Still to come this morning, have you ever heard of technological Domestic Abuse . Well tell you what it is and why mps are warning us all about it. Stay with britains newsroom here gb news. Welcome back. Its 1039. Youre watching britains newsroom on gb news with myself, Martin Daubney identifying today as Andrew Pierce and bev turner. Now mps have called on the government to tackle tech abuse, warning that Smart Devices from video cameras to Baby Monitors are being used to control victims of Domestic Abuse. Citing data from the charity refuge, the parliament report said that 60 of the women and children it supported in 2021 experienced abuse using technology. I mean, its not really a surprise. This is it. But lets get a bit more insight about this from our Political Correspondent , our Political Correspondent, olivia utley. Good morning, olivia. If we have you there , olivia. If we have you there, its not really surprising , is its not really surprising, is it, because, of course, using technology for surveillance purposes has been allowed to grow exponentially outside of any sort of legislation to keep it in check. So what is this report saying . Report saying . Well, absolutely. Essentially whats been happening over the last ten, 20 years is technology has been developing at a really rapid rate. And the government has been desperately trying to catch up and retro proactively create legislation to monitor this this technology. So what this this technology. So what this report has said, it was commissioned in may 2020, the committee for culture, media and sport has been looking at evidence all this time. It said that now up to 60 of Domestic Abuse cases involve some sort of technology. So that can be Baby Monitors. It can be people logging into their netflix accounts. As one example, when theyre living with their abusen theyre living with their abuser, managing to escape to a Domestic Abuse Refuge Centre and still being logged into their netflix. And that enables their Domestic Abuser to track them down. Theres also, of course, the use of spy where so blackmail and manipulation from Domestic Abusers who have whove managed to covertly film their victims. And of course what the victims. And of course what the report outlines, which is pretty obvious , is that this is obvious, is that this is a problem which is only going to get worse at the moment, problem which is only going to get worse at the moment , the get worse at the moment, the average uk household has nine connected pieces of tech nology in their houses and by 2050 its expected that there will. Be 24 expected that there will. Be 24 billion connected devices in the world at any one time. So this is a problem which is only going to get worse. And it looks as though the criminal Justice System just cant keep up the problem, which the committee identified, is that officers just arent trained to deal with this. So instead of working to catch the perpetrators when a Domestic Abuse victim comes forward with a with a story like this, they simply tell their victims to get offline, which obviously in lots of cases isnt practical at all. So the committee has urged the government to put more resources into to helping Police Officers training Police Officers to deal with situations like this. But they acknowledge that it isnt a Silver Bullet and that this problem really is just going to get worse. Get worse. Yeah, fascinating. Thank you. Political correspondent olivia utley. There we are joined in the studio by peter whittle, director of the new Culture Forum. Hi. Morning, peter. Forum. Hi. Good morning, peter. And political and bushra shaikh, political commentator we commentator and a regular can we just reflect upon that story a little bit before we move on, bushra, because it feels like we all have tech in our house that we really about, and we dont really think about, and yet its clearly used for yet its being clearly used for coercive purposes , spying on coercive purposes, spying on people. I dont think this is just women that will be victims of there will also be of this. There will also be women, who spying on women, women who are spying on their as well. Their other halves as well. Weve walked into this weve slept walked into this problem, we . Problem, havent we . Yeah, totally. The thing is, whats difficult whats really difficult to understand that we understand about this is that we still that technology. If still need that technology. If youve children the youve got children in the house, going have house, youre going to have those gadgets the house to those gadgets in the house to protect well. And protect your child as well. And unfortunately, to going unfortunately, you are to going have going unfortunately, you are to going ha use going unfortunately, you are to going ha use this going unfortunately, you are to going ha use this to going unfortunately, you are to going ha use this to their going unfortunately, you are to going ha use this to their advantage. ] to use this to their advantage. The question isnt about should we it, about we stop using it, its about what processes facilities what processes and facilities have safeguard people have we got to safeguard people who are going to be, you know, you know, you know, spied upon, spied on by their partners. And this is happening. So maybe the police force need to tackle this now. Well i mean, the problem is tech moves. Yes. And whenever so quickly. Yes. And whenever we a new tech, a new we get a new tech, theres a new way being used. And way of being used. And a nefarious manner. The that nefarious manner. The thing that really the apple really got me over the apple airtag the apple airtag is airtag so the apple airtag is a device that was meant to be. Ive lost my suitcase. Oh there it is. What was happening is that a of men were putting it is. What was happening is thin a of men were putting it is. What was happening is thin their of men were putting it is. What was happening is thin their exs|en were putting it is. What was happening is thin their exs carwere putting it is. What was happening is thin their exs car behinditting it is. What was happening is thin their exs car behind the; it in their exs car behind the number plates, things like that. Theyre in theyre able to watch them in real time. Know, as like real time. You know, as like a James Bond Style gadget. So my point is, wherever new thing comes out, theres a wrongun whos going whos going to abuse it . Yes. This is like sort of humanity plus technology equals problem. I mean , i dont problem. Yes. I mean, i dont quite know how on earth you would around this. I mean, would get around this. I mean, when on their when you say spying on their partners , i mean, presumably not partners, i mean, presumably not happily partnered people would do. Do this. Well, i guess what this report saying that women who report is saying that women who are relationships, are in abusive relationships, ships escape the prying ships cannot escape the prying eyes of their partners and that that that can be deeply uncomfortable when you see im really uncomfortable with the police being in in my house with the states being in my house with the law being inside my house, as little of that house, i want as little of that as possible. So in a way, i as possible. And so in a way, i listen to this story and i think all we can do is take personal responsibility. Well gadgets yeah, well get the gadgets out your house. Thats what mean. Turn off your devices. But its a mess. Let us know what you think. Gb views gbnews. Com. I know what the solution i dont know what the solution is. Right. Talk, peter, is. Right. Let us talk, peter, about main story were about this main story were talking today. Bibby talking about today. The bibby stockholm will be stockholm people will be arriving on the boat this morning. Bring you those morning. We will bring you those pictures are pictures live if you are listening watching home, listening and watching at home, is good news day for the is this a good news day for the government once people start walking gangway . Walking up that gangway . Really, no. I mean, no, not really, no. I mean, i think look, i mean, i find this all very depressing. I all very, very depressing. I mean, weve had mean, obviously today weve had the well ascension the news as well about Ascension Island considered. Now as island being considered. Now as a back up plan , which a kind of back up plan, which actually the Ascension Island point actually a very good point is actually a very good one. In fact, the new Culture Forum for this. Forum has been calling for this. My forum has been calling for this. My colleague , a senior my senior colleague, a senior fellow Rafe Heydel Mankoo fellow there, Rafe Heydel Mankoo , who might know was talking , who you might know was talking about this very thing on saturday that is a far more plausible plan. But the problem with this is that people, you know now feel that this is entirely window dressing with what, an election in maybe a years time, just over a years time. If this was such a good time. If this was such a good idea, why did they not come up with it . Well, actually, 13 years ago, i mean, we now having i think its about 15,000 illegals already this year. Were sort of on on course to have another record. And i think have another record. And i think that really what it comes down to, bev, is that people just dont want these people here. Its as simple as that. But this is seen as a triumph is how are we dealing with them . I mean , we dealing with them . I mean, how not are we stopping them, but how are we dealing with them . And its a completely different argument. And people want to how youre to going want to know how youre to going stop know . Isnt stop it, you know . Yeah, isnt that the point . What we have is a government singularly , provably and openly singularly, provably and openly failing to take back control of our borders, which was an electoral pledge in every election since 2010. For the last 13 ruddy years. And now last 13 ruddy years. And now they cant stop it. Theyre just they cant stop it. Theyre just throwing out these what feel throwing out these what i feel are like gimmicks, gimmicks to try and make it seem like theyre something theyre doing something about it. Cause of the it. But the root cause of the problem. Youve nailed problem. Peter, youve nailed it. Theyre not the it. Theyre not stopping the arrivals just case of arrivals. Its just a case of where them and how much where we put them and how much it yeah, peters right with this yeah, peters right with this as well. Theyve had 13 years to figure plan. What thats figure out a plan. What thats going look like. Dont going to look like. We dont even whether is going even know whether this is going to work. You know, it might be you know, some people will be happy weve individuals happy that weve got individuals going but the going on to the barge. But the truth there is going to be a truth is, there is going to be a lot issues that are going to lot of issues that are going to happen once they are on that barge. The end of it barge. This is not the end of it because we know that they have freefall walk out. Freefall to walk in and out. They can leave and, you know, come, come and go as they please. Are the other please. So what are the other repercussions having repercussions of having these individuals barge . Individuals on a barge . We are going that play out going to see that play out because we havent seen any action. Havent results. Action. We havent seen results. And this is the big question mark that i have this mark that i have is, is this actually to work . This is actually going to work . This is im so utterly sick of this now. Actually going to work . This is im i;o utterly sick of this now. Actually going to work . This is imi mean, ly sick of this now. Actually going to work . This is imi mean, and k of this now. Actually going to work . This is imi mean, and i; of this now. Actually going to work . This is imi mean, and i thinkis now. Actually going to work . This is imi mean, and i think that w. Actually going to work . This is imi mean, and i think that the i mean, and i think that the government just simply, first of all, understand how all, doesnt understand how angry people are but angry people are getting. But also i also actually doesnt care. I mean, at a local level, whether its whatever, its this barge or or whatever, you know, in military you know, even in military bases, whatever , i would bases, hotels, whatever, i would like to see that barge. If like to see that barge. If youve got to have a barge full of our Homeless Veterans for example, 9000 of them sleeping rough , you know, on the streets, rough, you know, on the streets, instead which, you we instead of which, you know, we are of kvetching about, is are sort of kvetching about, is this going to be comfortable enough . This humane . And all enough . Is this humane . And all of these things . And in fact, it of these things . And in fact, it is as you say, its not about, oh, well well have more time to process all the claims. I mean, the fact is this country accepts most of the claims anyway. In europe. They actually anyway. In europe. They actually disallow most of the claims. These are the Big Questions which this is just like , you which this is just like, you know, around the edges, tampering around the edges. Okay. Right. Moving on to okay. Right. Moving on to what do we want to talk about next . Martin i think it was the. Yeah. Why dont we do move on to bushra and peters done a story. This is the thing, of course, were doing dont kill cash the campaign at gb news. If you havent signed up yet, get involved. On the almost on involved. Were on the almost on the of million mark. The quarter of a million mark. Where you been . Quarter of where have you been . Quarter of a million. We can start putting it to the government, to the banks start proper banks and start take proper action. Plug for your action. And if the plug for your story taking story here, natwest is taking this theyre limiting this further, theyre limiting the cash. We can the amount of cash. We can even withdraw. Withdraw. Gm em yeah, they are. They are. Whats happening is they are forcing something thats going whats happening is they are forcomeomething thats going whats happening is they are forcomeomeplay. Thats going whats happening is they are forcomeomeplay. On ts going whats happening is they are forcomeomeplay. On september to come into play. On september the and bearing in the 11th. And this is bearing in mind consulting the mind without consulting the consumer. So policies that a consumer. So any policies that a bank , it has bank introduce, it has to consult the consumer before they decide on something. And this is exactly been talking exactly what weve been talking about. Know farage about. And i know nigel farage has been an amazing job about. And i know nigel farage has ithe| an amazing job about. And i know nigel farage has ithe whole an amazing job about. And i know nigel farage has ithe whole de banking job about. And i know nigel farage has ithe whole de banking , b about. And i know nigel farage has ithe whole de banking , you with the whole de banking, you know, issues is we are heading to a cashless society. And my to a cashless society. And my fear with this is this is still about controlling people. Its controlling where you go , how controlling where you go, how you spend your money, how much you spend your money, how much you have it, how how you get your money. Because as far as i know, i think it was a tory mp, anne marie said that theyve got a slogan that says tomorrow begins today. So what do they mean by tomorrow . Begins today. Is this we want to know what youre doing with your money and we will tell you how to use it. Its also its such an overused word, isnt it . But its all all of its so orwellian. You know, tomorrow begins today. Worries me begins today. What worries me about this and this consciousness thing, first of all, about of old all, what about millions of old people who rely on cash, for example, but also its got sort of, you know, very strong sense of, you know, very strong sense of this chinese social credit system, which i think most people still dont quite know what that is. But in a nutshell , what it means is, for example , what it means is, for example , you know, and this is what happens when its cash. Cash free is that suppose you havent paid your mortgage or youve fallen behind you, then go to the Railway Station to get a ticket somewhere and they say, im sorry, we cant sell this to you because fallen behind you because youve fallen behind on mortgage repayments. You because youve fallen behind on rthat|age repayments. You because youve fallen behind on rthat is|e repayments. You because youve fallen behind on rthat is utterayments. You because youve fallen behind on rthat is utter socialts. Yeah. So that is utter social and economic, and that is tomorrow. Beginning today. Yes. Tomorrow begins today is such a chilling slogan and interesting that brings next that brings on to the next story, peter and this is the preparedness for disease x, its almost like a horror film. Yeah. So talk about that social credit and the vaccines being a part of that. Yes. In china, uk scientists preparing in this new laboratory with a vaccine plan. Whats going on here . Yes, its basically a possibility of bird flu, which has really affected the said the bird community, but its affected birds. Affected birds. Everyones a community now. We are indeed about that. But also they say disease x, which is sort of like some unknown thing that might happen. I i tend to look askance at these stories now. I have to be honest, because i sort of feel, wait a minute, you know , i took wait a minute, you know, i took the vaccine last time for covid or whatever. I dont think im going to be taking any more now. And im not anti vaxxer or anything. Apparently theyve been doing tests on people who work with chickens and other avian creatures. And so far , avian creatures. And so far, only about four people have shown symptoms of this in all the tests theyve done. But it the tests theyve done. But it seems to me to be maybe something that is well, good to be prepared for in usual times. But now we know what often happensin but now we know what often happens in this situation. You happens in this situation. You know, there becomes a compulsion i its so worrying for me because mrna , the messenger because mrna, the messenger ribonucleic acid, which they used in the covid vaccines, was a technology that the Drug Companies wanted to get onto the market. And for decades, it wasnt allowed on the market because it was too dangerous. They pushed it through under covid guess covid this laboratory. Guess what working out . How to what is working out . How to deliver mechanism into all deliver that mechanism into all of our vaccines . And i dont think weve had enough conversation about whether that is to do. But sure, is a safe thing to do. But sure, yeah, its true. And you know, im not per se an anti vax , but i didnt take an anti vax, but i didnt take any of covid jabs simply any of the covid jabs simply because enough because there just wasnt enough results me that this results to prove to me that this was enough to on human was safe enough to use on human beings. And i think with the mrna, this what were finding mrna, this is what were finding as well. There going be as well. There are going to be so side effects. So many serious side effects. You obviously, people in you know, obviously, people in the to the industry are trying to figure how bad or how figure out how how bad or how good is. I just dont good this is. I just dont understand why why are we going to up with to pump our bodies up with something to safeguard us from something to safeguard us from something that hasnt happened yet . I think something that hasnt happened yet . I think the something that hasnt happened yet . I think the human something that hasnt happened yet . I think the human body something that hasnt happened yet . I think the human body is yet . I think the human body is remarkable and we should be pushing other things within science and medicine before we start telling people that they need judged. Need to be judged. Be fair, drug to be fair, the Drug Companies arent here would companies who arent here would say they and say that they are safe and effective. I want to point. Well, they would because because loads of money. Its a huge business. The big farmers are massive business. Lets the dots lets start joining the dots here, blairs hovering here, tony blairs hovering around again. Hes advising starmer, hes advising keir starmer, the foundation. Know the blair foundation. We know who all to have who wants us all to have passports, digital ids , and we passports, digital ids, and we know biometrics. But he wants part of that to be your vaccine status. That chinese social credit. So drawing all these things together, tech being used in the wrong way, vaccines being a routine part of the medical rollout. Is this something that no cash and thats all in your smartphone . Beep, beep, beep. Is this actually just a giant push, peter, to make us walking barcodes . Who can be traced and monitored controlled . Yes monitored and controlled . Yes i think also it just increases fear in people. I mean, basically, you know, what would the other kind of measures be if Something Like this happened . I mean, we now have to sort of consider prospect sort of consider the prospect that, know, sort of that, you know, sort of lockdowns used again. I lockdowns will be used again. I mean, you know, on the planet. Yes and the drop of yes exactly. And at the drop of a l yes exactly. And at the drop of a , maybe, mean, they seem a hat, maybe, i mean, they seem to learned no lessons to have learned no lessons from this. You and i think to this. You know, and i think to live under a cloud of fear and sort of hyper theoretical possibility is just not any way. Sure isnt isnt this more about just having human beings becoming robots and controlling every aspect of our lives, whether thats cash and whether what goes in your body, you need to be you need to do what we tell you what to do. And this is this is what its okay. Thank you, guys. That kind of conversation frankly conversation is frankly therapeutic for me. Bushra and peter will be back in a peter will be back in just a moment in next few minutes moment in the next few minutes as going be as well. Were going to be crossing over to dorset. We are expecting the first bus full of migrants minute migrants to arrive any minute now that warm feeling inside now.

The new working week after a bit of a cool night. Plenty of clear skies around morning allowing for around this morning allowing for early cloud early brightness, but cloud will soon bubble up, allowing showers to develop. And these could be to develop. And these could be heavy, especially across northern eastern parts of northern and eastern parts of scotland might also scotland, where we might also see thunder storm, see the odd thunder storm, though dry for many across the south with plenty of sunshine. So feeling pretty pleasant here with highs of 22 or even locally, 23 in the south east but now into this evening and those showers will slowly start to ease away to allow for some clear spells to develop ahead of this area of cloud and rain pushing in from the southwest, bringing outbreaks of rain and drizzle into the early hours of tuesday day. It will be a clearer night, though, across scotland, Northern England and Northern Ireland, where well see temperatures dropping quite widely in rural areas into the single figures now throughout the rest of tuesday , this rain the rest of tuesday, this rain and cloud will erratically make its way eastwards. This will mostly be quite light rain and drizzle, though there could be the odd, heavier bursts in there, but bringing quite a dull and day for much of and gloomy day for much of england and wales. Northern ireland, scotland and the far north of england remaining dry and sunny. Feeling pleasant and sunny. So feeling pleasant here. Along english here. Breezy along English Channel coast, but still seeing highs of 20 to that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers proud sponsors of weather on gb news top of the morning. Its 11 am. On monday, the 7th of august. This is britains newsroom on gb news with bev turner Martin Daubney.

Immigrants if theyre rwanda. Plans through and it plans fall through and it involves a british overseas territory for thousand miles away in the middle of the south atlantic. Atlantic. Plus, the home secretary has announced plans to clamp down on landlords and businesses who take on Illegal Migrants. But can we ever enforce them . And the ludicrous rule that deducted so called living costs from pay cuts for those wrongly imprisoned have finally been scrapped. Scrapped. But can any amount of money ever compensate for years of your life lost . Well speak to a former prisoner later in the show. Show. That story about the prisoner is amazing. Who knew .

Gb views of views gbnews. Com. But first of all, ray addison with the latest. News good morning. 11 01. Our top story. Up to 50 Asylum Seekers story. Up to 50 Asylum Seekers could move into the controversial bibby stockholm barge in dorset later on today. Barge in dorset later on today. Now those watching on tv can now see live footage of the entrance to Portland Port where the migrant transport is expected to arrive. You can also see arrive. You can also see demonstrator boaters who are assembled by that entrance protesting against the location of the barge. Now, once they arrive , the men will walk up the arrive, the men will walk up the gangway of the bibby stockholm and enter the vessel where they will be housed. Of course, it will be housed. Of course, it follows delays caused by health and safety concerns, including the Firefighters Union warning that the barge is a potential death trap. Safeguarding minister sarah dines told us it is justified despite those concerns being like this, where a large groups of migrants have congregated is never popular , congregated is never popular, which is why we have to stop the crisis in the channel. But we cant do that by having the pull factors of having the pull factors of having Wonderful Hotels being used for Illegal Migrants whove travelled through several safe countries to get here. Lets not forget well, Shadow International trade secretary Nick Thomas Symonds told us how labour would stop the small boat arrivals. Arrivals. What we will be doing is driving down that asylum backlog. Well do that firstly by using using the £140 million the government is currently spent on rwanda plan, which has sent more home secretaries to rwanda than people to actually have a cross border policing unit to try and bust the model of the people smuggling gangs so that fewer people end up in the engush that fewer people end up in the English Channel on that dangerous crossing in the first place. Meanwhile , multiple reports meanwhile, multiple reports suggest that the government is considering plans to house people who arrive in the uk by unauthorised means.

Bev well, gb news understands the first group of migrants are en route to the bibby stockholm barge now , despite opposition barge now, despite opposition from local groups , the barge is from local groups, the barge is set to accommodate 500 male Asylum Seekers. Asylum seekers. Its arrived at Portland Harbour last month after being tugged, if you remember, from falmouth. Tugged, if you remember, from fal|and h. Been widely reported and its been widely reported this morning government this morning that the government are a plan b if the are drawing up a plan b if the rwanda policy falls through and that Illegal Migrants will be sent to Ascension Island in the middle atlantic ocean. Middle of the atlantic ocean. Out more from our lets find out more from our south west reporter jeff moody. Good jeff. It looked good morning, jeff. It looked from our earlier pictures as though protesters on both sides were amassing down there at the harbour. Whats the very latest. At. Well, the atmosphere here is starting to get really tense. Were expecting the first busload to arrive. Any second now. Weve had a few false starts. There are people starts. There are people watching from on the top of the cliff. There are people watching from all around. And theres lots of swirling around of, lots of news swirling around of, oh, is this one . Is this the oh, is this the one . Is this the one . A news helicopter one . Theres a news helicopter over overhead which is giving us regular , so were not regular updates, so were not sure its going to arrive, sure when its going to arrive, but it is due to arrive immediately. Maybe there arent any here. What there any protests here. What there is, is the a group of people over here who are mainly from the stand up to racism group. Theyve big welcome banners. Theyve got big welcome banners. Theyre not pointing our way because they want to show the welcome banners to the bus as it comes other side, comes past. On the other side, you can see if our camera woman turns around, you can see the police there at the entrance to the port waiting for the bus to arrive. And then on the top of the cliff , thats where the the cliff, thats where the protesters from the other group, the no to the barge group, is based. The no to the barge group, is based. They felt that it wasnt based. They felt that it wasnt appropriate for them to be here right now because this isnt really a message about not welcoming these individual people. But their message is people. But their message is much more about the suitability of the location than whether it should be here in the first place. And theyre very conscious that it isnt these peoples fault. So they say that theyre happy to step back this morning and to allow the Welcome Party to take prominence, if you like , and they will keep their like, and they will keep their fight going. Theyll keep their battle going with dorset council. Were hearing now that it is arriving. Were not sure whether this is the one, but were im going to step out of the shot quickly and try not to get run over. So you can see this as it happens. Its a blacked out bus. The welcome blacked out bus. The welcome banner. Blacked out bus. The welcome banner. Theyre stepping onto banner. Theyre stepping onto the road again, were not sure if these are the refugees, but we think they are. Its certainly looking that way. Certainly looking that way. Couldnt actually see anybody on the bus there. It looks to me as though its an empty bus on the right hand side that went past me just now. I couldnt see a single person, but. Were not single person, but. Were not sure whether that is the bus or not, but certainly everyones taking photos and all. I mean, no doubt therell be all sorts of vehicles welcoming them. Therell be all sorts of vehicles wont there, this morning jeff, having to go to the as you said, the barge because as you said, the barge because as you said, the people who arrived there, theyre going to need food. Of course, need course, theyre going to need resources. Need resources. Theyre going to need were told that theyre were being told that theyre being of toiletries being given bags of toiletries as a map local area for as a map to the local area for mobile phones, mobile phones, ins. To be a huge ins. Its going to be a huge logistical undertaking , which logistical undertaking, which has been many months in the build up to this. And then at some point, as we say, the migrants themselves will arrive and so just to clarify , because and so just to clarify, because i think i understood your point, but so those people who who are protesting against the arrival of the migrants have chosen to stand somewhere else this morning because dont morning because they dont want the migrants to see their objections, did i understand that correctly . That correctly . Yes, you did. Yes. I mean , yes, you did. Yes. I mean, their view is that theyre beef is not with the people themselves. Theyre not with the themselves. Theyre not with the migrants themselves. Their beef migrants themselves. Their beef is with dorset council. Their is with dorset council. Their beefis is with dorset council. Their beef is with the home office and particular with Portland Port that owns the port and allowed these this situation to arise without any form of consultation whatsoever with the local residents. Thats who theyre cross with. Thats who theyre angry with. And they didnt feel it was appropriate to stage a massive protest down here at the port as the very first thing that these migrants see when they arrive. But that doesnt mean not protesting mean that theyre not protesting and continue their and they will continue their campaign. They felt that it campaign. They just felt that it was to stay and aside was best to stay and aside slightly this morning. Slightly this morning. Jeff moody, live from okay, jeff moody, live from portland, expecting the arrival of those first Asylum Seekers later on today. Throughout the morning, across that morning, youll be across that story. Jeff. Lets go story. Thank you, jeff. Lets go now to david kirton, the leader of party, to talk of the heritage party, to talk about that. Initially before we move on to Ascension Island. David how does it make you feel to see luxury coaches rocking up to see luxury coaches rocking up to these Floating Hotels isles where theyre about to get mobile phones as food items , mobile phones as food items, goody bags . How does that make you feel . Yeah well, its just part of the ongoing situation. Itsjust part of the ongoing situation. Its just an indictment of the government that hasnt got control of the migrant situation in the channel. And this wouldnt be happening if they had. Soit wouldnt be happening if they had. So it makes me feel like, what on earth is happening to our country where, you know, theres hotels all over the place where youre a military aged men are being put in, theyre affecting the local communities. And this is just another local community that doesnt want it. This problem on their doorstep. And i totally understand that. And i dont blame the migrants for taking advantage of the rewards that theyre getting by coming to this country. But thats a result of the government that weve got, you know , i mean, in weve got, you know, i mean, in essence, really, they shouldnt be allowed to come here because they passed through many, many safe countries on their way. And especially france. France is a safe country. So to for the safe country. So to for the government to keep on giving rewards to people who have come to the country illegally, is just something that should stop i and lots of our viewers have been getting in touch this morning. David and roger has said that the government needs to seek out the backlog of immigration cases. And quickly, why do they take so long for each case . Its a question we hear a lot. Do you have any answer for that . Yeah i mean, as far i the backlog is far as i know, the backlog is now 174,000. Its just inept attitude on the part of the home office. And the part of the home office. And i think the staff that are working for the home office and you wonder if this being done you wonder if this is being done on mean, as far i on purpose. I mean, as far as i know as well, the government is actually actively deporting only about 2 or 3000 might warrants or Illegal Migrants every year. So you know, thats simply not enough to get, you know, even get control of the backlog. Its getting bigger and bigger and bigger all the time. Theyve got to get grip on this. And if to get a grip on this. And if they had got a grip on this and theyve had 13 years to do it, we wouldnt have this problem that have now. That we have now. David, id also like to put a couple points to you from couple more points to you from gb news viewers. Theyre really getting heads about this getting heads up about this today. I live today. Joanne has said, i live an hour from weymouth. An hour away from weymouth. I visit a regular basis , but visit on a regular basis, but not anymore. These people will be wandering around with nothing to do. Its not good for weymouth and businesses will suffer of this. And suffer because of this. And also, says, the people in also, linda says, the people in portland should refuse to serve the migrants in pubs and shops. The migrants in pubs and shops. Theyre getting fed up in the barge, so theres no need to go shopping definitely no shopping and definitely no alcohol. See there. Alcohol. We can see there. David straight people the straight away, people on the ground really not happy ground are really not happy about today. Ground are really not happy aboyeah, today. Ground are really not happy aboyeah, absolutely. And im not yeah, absolutely. And im not surprised and a lot of people are very afraid and a lot of people are very nervous. And people are very nervous. And because. We lost david, hes because. We lost david, hes coming back. So were just coming back. So were just saying that make sure that people stay safe. People stay safe. Okay. Good. Shall we move on now to the next point . The plans, the Ascension Island being teed up as a kind of fallback plan for rwanda, which, lets face it, has been a disaster, literally never got off the ground. And whats your off the ground. And whats your take on the Ascension Islands as a potential locale . On the one a potential locale . On the one hand, it is a British Sovereign territory, but is it also a salient, a sign of our total failures control our borders . Failures control our borders . I think that the government is flailing around trying to come up with anything that is going to seem to be a solution. And perhaps you know, in propaganda terms , will make them propaganda terms, will make them appear that theyre doing something. But i mean, this is, something. But i mean, this is, you know, its a better idea than rwanda is in theory. And the australia did this. They picked up people all with their navy, illegal people coming to australia from indonesia and sent them straight to nauru. Sent them straight to nauru. They had an agreement with another country to do that. So this would be a similar thing. But you know, even at the height of the australians were of what the australians were doing, there were only 12,000 people in the camp that they put the migrants on there. Now its simply not enough with simply not enough to cope with the coming across. The numbers coming across. I mean, Ascension Island is small. Theres only 900 People Living there. So in practise, im not sure how well its going to work because you would need to build accommodation facilities. Youd also need to put in extra electro city water, sewage and all these kind of things. What all these kind of things. What about the food that they need . So you mean putting them on a small island like this . It sounds good, but in practise i think it isnt going to work for many more than, you know, a thousand or so migrants, which means you still have the problem of the other tens of thousands coming across still be in this country. Okay , we have to leave it okay, we have to leave it there. Thank you, david curtin, for that excellent input. Lets cross dorset, our cross live now to dorset, our Home Affairs Security editor home and Affairs Security editor mark is there. Weve just mark white. Is there. Weve just seen a bus arrive. Mark was that the the migrants on or not . Well, i think theres a good chance that, yes, there would have been migrants on board that bus, even though perhaps they couldnt quite see it from their angle was going in. It angle as it was going in. It would be straight for a bus to arrive , given what everybody is arrive, given what everybody is waiting for today. And theyre not to be migrants on boarded at this time. And now if there are migrants on board this bus, i can talk you through roughly what is going to be happening now. As i was given just a couple of weeks ago, a tour of the barge itself and all the sort of security protocols that they have to go through. So the bus arrives at that main gate , bus arrives at that main gate, goes through the main gate, and then there is a Security Check at what is the main entrance to the port. And this is a working , busy working port. Its no longer a naval port, but its still hosts naval vessels regularly. In fact, there are four more British Naval vessels in port today. So clearly in port today. So clearly security is very significant , security is very significant, urgent at this particular port. Once theyve gone through that Security Check, then they board a smaller bus for only about 100 yards or so from that front gate to just a central courtyard and an area just beside the bp barge , which at that point then theyll december park and then head towards the bp barge. And then the they enter. Certainly from when i saw it, the first gangway that you see at, if youre looking at the shop from the cliff top, looking down at the cliff top, looking down at the bp barge, its the first of those gangways. And the reason those gangways. And the reason for that is because thats where the main reception is up at that point. And there is also now another set of security obe. So knife archers and that kind of thing that the migrants will have to go through before theyre then given their induction on showing where they will be sleeping , showing all of will be sleeping, showing all of the recreation and other facilities that will be on board this barge. So as i say, no this barge. So as i say, no confirmation that this bus that has come in does have migrants on board. But but hopefully it does look as though it may well be because i cant imagine why another bus would be coming into port at this time. No, i mean, it seems highly likely, isnt it . And also, we were just discussing will those will those individuals, will those men on that boat have been told to sit up against the glass and wave at the welcoming committee or will they have been told you might want to bend over so they dont a paparazzi so they dont get a paparazzi picture you that is the picture of you that is on the front page the tomorrow . Are front page of the tomorrow . Are the papers tomorrow and just sort of forward in your seat . Yeah, i mean, theyve probably been told by their home office minders that there will be many cameras from the worlds press there to get that shot , as press there to get that shot, as well as, of course, this welcoming committee that probably werent even told about the welcoming committee, to be honest. But they will have been warned about the likelihood of the press being there. But the press being there. But having said that, ive been at dover at manston here. Obviously various other locations where you get migrants that are going into accommodation. And quite into accommodation. And quite often what you find is actually theyre more than happy just to wave. They dont care and they just wave as they come. But may just wave as they come. But may be quite a few of them have decided they, you know, they want to just duck down as as they pass by. We dont know. And only in the fullness of the next minutes ahead will we get an indication on whether there is a group of 50 odd boarding on that barge with their minders. Then barge with their minders. Then well know for sure that this is indeed the bus with the first of those arrivals. Those arrivals. Okay. Mark white down in portland , thank you for that. Portland, thank you for that. I dont know about you, bev, but if i was one of those one of those lads, because theyre lads on a coach about to get a goodie bag, a mobile phone, a nice little plush apartment a little plush apartment on a floating id smiling, floating hotel, id be smiling, id be waving and that would be a front page of a national newspaper, likely the daily a front page of a national news|these likely the daily a front page of a national news|these guys likely the daily a front page of a national news|these guys are ly the daily a front page of a national news|these guys are about.

Ive been on many, many ferries and as a kid and i never had one as luxurious as that. You know, the fact they make out its floating prison is its a floating prison is incorrect. Locals are incorrect. The locals are telling theyll be to free telling us theyll be to free come to shore and come and go as they i think this is they please.

But was almost as if it but it was almost as if it wasnt a stamp. Its almost as if stepped on to make if she stepped on it to make a point. But still, shes walking away. Madness. Like away. Madness madness. Just like when obviously David Beckham reacted to provocation by simian against the argentinians. What against the argentinians. What he said, beckham went on, you know, he was he was a pariah figure for a number of weeks. Martin, im sure you remember it. I do. Yeah. But then he redeemed himself.

And they are, lionesses. And here they are, lionesses. And here they are, lionesses. And the european and they won only the european championship. Theyve won on championship. Now theyve won on penalties. Good omen. Penalties. And its a good omen. All over, though. The its all over, though. The americans its all over, though. The am comes its all over, though. The am come on, boys. You know, come on, boys. But, you know, girls are doing it for british sport as well. But unfortunately, if you were watching the last night, watching the netball last night, i play netball every week. Im sure you gripped that sure you were gripped to that match, werent you . Martin daubney i was glued to it stop oil it like a Just Stop Oil processor to a picasso. The world cup for the we made the world cup for the first time ever. You did watch it, didnt you . Sadly, we it, didnt you . But sadly, we lost. Done, girls, for lost. But well done, girls, for making final right you. Making that final right at you. Here about houses and here to talk about houses and this what appears to an this what appears to be an exodus out of london thats affecting prices. Is this affecting house prices. Is this affecting house prices. Is this a lockdown a post lockdown trend . Partly post lockdown. Its partly a post lockdown. Its a cost of its partly just a cost of housing look, on average housing thing. Look, on average house in the uk, the average home the uk costs around 8 to home in the uk costs around 8 to 9 times the average annual income. Right . Well in when i bought my First Property in the mid 90s, it was more like 4 or 5 times. Yeah. But that 8 or 9 times. Yeah. But that 8 or 9 times average multiple , its times average multiple, its Something Like 12 to 15 times in london. And for First Time Buyers look like over half of all First Time Buyers in this country. Now they can only buy their property because of the so called bank of mum and dad, and thats two thirds in london. And the south east, which is deeply unfair for because you get people families that get people from families that dont own property, that are working hard. Theyre working just as hard. Theyre paying working just as hard. Theyre paying someone elses paying rent on someone elses mortgage, people earning mortgage, whereas people earning exactly the same, doing exactly the same job work, they can the same job at work, they can buy own house. So theyre buy their own house. So theyre paying buy their own house. So theyre paying mortgage. Paying off their own mortgage. So happening the so whats happening at the moment because this price moment is because this price differential between london and the the is made the rest of the country is made so worse by rising interest so much worse by Rising Interest Rates then youre a lot rates, then youre getting a lot of people leaving london of young people leaving london just any where on the just to get any where on the housing ladder. Lets have ive got a few numbers here for you, just as i think theyre worth stressing every now and then. So i in here. Average i just put it in here. Average two year fixed Rate Mortgage has risen from. 2. 52 to 6. 85 since risen from. 2. 52 to 6. 85 since 2021. Look at those numbers. Thats absolutely huge. And the increase in mortgage payments has been worse in london. So 30 of london. These are these are figures from the estate agent, hamptons, 30 of london based london based First Time Buyers are now leaving the capital, and thats up from just 12 of london based First Time Buyers back in 2013. And of course , as back in 2013. And of course, as you know, we just saw a rate rise from 5 to 5. 25. Ive been calling for rate rises to stop for months as you guys know. But i dont think they will stop. I think therell be at least one, maybe two. So this hollowing out of the capital is likely to continue. But whats interesting about this is that the First Time Buyers cant afford to buyers who cant afford to upgrade london are, of upgrade in london are, of course, town, but course, moving out of town, but theyre pushing prices theyre pushing up prices elsewhere. Seeing elsewhere. So were seeing like in , its now all london in bristol, its now all london money there. So these money going there. So these blooming theyre blooming londoners, theyre going everywhere. So live in a market and so i live in a market town, know, an town, which is, you know, an hours town, which is, you know, an hours from london. Its hours commute from london. Its half an hour on a fast train, 35 minutes. So its you know, it is very subject to london money and local kids who dont plan to live and work in london, whose families been in this town families have been in this town in locality for years. They in this locality for years. They are out by are getting squeezed out by london and its london money as well. And its mental health, you know, i mean, how much time spending how much time youre spending commuting back to commuting and this goes back to the you know, the the greenbelt. You know, the greenbelt the greenbelt in parts of the south east, the greenbelt is like 20, 30 miles wide. So what like 20, 30 miles wide. So what people are having to do is theyre having to commute over theyre having to commute over the greenbelt, right. Which is more environmental, mental cost, the greenbelt, right. Which is more time onmental , mental cost, the greenbelt, right. Which is more time ,nmental , mental cost, the greenbelt, right. Which is more time , more al , mental cost, the greenbelt, right. Which is more time , more stress,ental cost, the greenbelt, right. Which is more time , more stress, more ost, more time, more stress, more family breakdown in crazy. And i wonder if a certain mr sadiq khan has got anything to do with this. We got soaring knife crime. The streets feel less safe. £12. 5 knife crime. The streets feel less safe. £125 to drive your car. Motorists getting nailed to the floor. A lot of people are just looking at the cost benefit analysis. Going, not analysis. Theyre going, im not bothered anymore. Bothered about this anymore. Im out and also think out of town and also i think there is that rising crime, but crime always goes up or nearly always goes when the cost of always goes up when the cost of living well. Living goes up as well. When times get tougher, crime tends particularly tends to go up, particularly violent unfortunately. Tends to go up, particularly violyalso, unfortunately. Tends to go up, particularly violyalso, i unfortunately. Tends to go up, particularly violyalso, i thinkifortunately. Tends to go up, particularly violyalso, i think youreitely. Tends to go up, particularly violyalso, i think youre getting but also, i think youre getting a people, particularly a a lot of people, particularly a lot londoners, maybe lot of londoners, maybe if theyre professional theyre in flashy professional jobs, thinking, well, we jobs, theyre thinking, well, we can only have to come in two days a week because i can work from home because im one of the laptop classes. Yeah. So londons to end up being londons going to end up being a place where really, really place where its really, really expensive to live, but also, you know, need in living know, we need people in living in london that do the practical hands jobs that you cant do hands on jobs that you cant do working home, you know, working from home, you know, working from home, you know, working in warehouses, you know, trades , building all rest of trades, building all the rest of it. And, you know, anyone who lives in london will tell you its hard to get anyone to do its so hard to get anyone to do any work, any building work, any maintenance moment Maintenance Work at the moment because people who would do because the people who would do those and theyre those jobs and theyre completely jobs that are completely decent jobs that are needed, they cant afford to live london. Live in london. What a mess. What a yeah. What a mess. What a mess. Liam halligan. Thank you so right. Still to so much. All right. Still to come going come this morning, were going be telling you about the number of dont that of brits who dont know that transgender women are biologically female.

Up to 50 Asylum Seekers could move into the controversial bibby stockholm barge in dorset later on today. Now, those watching on television can now see live footage of the entrance to Portland Port where the migrant transport is expected to arrive. You can also see demonstrators who assembled by the entrance there protesting against the location of the barge. Now, once location of the barge. Now, once they arrive, the men will walk up the gangway of the bibby stockholm home and enter the vessel where they will be housed. Of course, this follows delays caused by health and safety concerns, including the Firefighters Union, who warned that the barge is a potential death trap. Well meanwhile, death trap. Well meanwhile, multiple reports suggest that the government is considering plans to house people who arrive in the uk by unauthorised means on Ascension Island , the british on Ascension Island, the british overseas territory is located overseas territory is located over 4000 miles away in the atlantic ocean, and it has a population of around 800 non permanent residents. The non permanent residents. The proposals are a possible plan b if the governments rwanda scheme fails. Fines will triple scheme fails. Fines will triple for businesses and landlords who knowingly support Illegal Migrants coming into the country under new government plans. Bosses who employ Asylum Seekers could face penalties of up to £60,000 per breach. The home office says illegal working and renting are significant pull factors for Channel Crossings so increasing the fines will act as a deterrent. And as weve been a deterrent. And as weve been hearing, home owners saw the average value of their property fall by nearly £1,000 between june and july of this year, according to halifax , values according to halifax, values fell by 0. 3 to an average of around £285,000.

Youre with britains newsroom on gb news with Martin Daubney and bev turner. So a controversial rule which deducted living costs from the compensation given to people wrongly imprisoned finally wrongly imprisoned has finally been scrapped. The rethink comes after the case andrew malkinson, who case of andrew malkinson, who spent almost two decades behind bars for a rape he did not commit and still has to wait two whole to get his whole years to get his compensation payment through. Joined by well, were joined now by winston who is a former winston davis, who is a former prisoner himself. Morning, prisoner himself. Good morning, winston. Thanks so for winston. Thanks so much for joining us just just give us an idea i mean , we can all imagine idea i mean, we can all imagine how malcolm must feel. How Andrew Malcolm must feel. But youve youve spent some time inside. What would it be like to be there for nearly 20 years committing a crime that you didnt do . I literally cant you didnt do . I literally cant imagine it. I mean , its i mean, being in i mean, its i mean, being in prison is bad enough as it is. Um especially when, like myself , you were youre rightly in prison, but to be in prison for something you havent done, especially Something Like rape, you know, hes got in there as a rapist , you know, you know, hes got in there as a rapist, you know, a. You you know, hes got in there as a rapist , you know, a. You know, rapist, you know, a. You know, he would have been in like a protective wing. You know, he protective wing. You know, he would have had other prisoners that you know, wanted to that would, you know, wanted to attack. You know, attack him. You know, the officers wanted to do him harm, probably like , you know, hes probably like, you know, hes gone worst possible way. Gone in the worst possible way. You to prison. Then you could go to prison. And then for doing it for nearly 20 years when you innocent, its when you were innocent, its like literally almost unthinkable. To then out , have and to then come out, have your name cleared , expect your name cleared, expect compensation to then be told, well , its compensation to then be told, well, its going to take us two years to sort out your claim. And also were going to add off were going to take off from the bill what it costs to keep you in prison. I mean, its remarkable that this was ever a law. Law. Yeah, its an absolute joke. Yeah, its an absolute joke. I mean, the reality of it is hes you know, he said it himself. He wants to shout out on the rooftops about how bad things are, but theres no amount of money that could ever give you back those 20 years, give you back those 20 years, give back missing give you back missing the funerals of loved funerals and the deaths of loved ones, missing the births of family, of, you know, marriages like , massive things like massive, massive things in your things that make your like key things that make life, what makes life life, life. What makes life worth living . You know, i remember once we sat there, um , remember once we sat there, um, me and one of the guys in there and we debated how long we would do to have all of Oprah Winfreys net worth. And we thought it was about 6 billion. She had so we worked it out for about five, six hours back and forth, forth. What forth, back and forth. What about this . What about about missing this . What about missing and we got it down missing that . And we got it down to six months, like we want to like six months, like we want to like six months, like we want to let alone years. To do so, let alone 20 years. And going get £1 million and then going to get £1 million and a kick the teeth to and then a kick in the teeth to say were going to take off all of your costs. Like, come on. Winston it just beggars yeah, winston it just beggars belief that youd charged for belief that youd be charged for prison food and lodgings. Prison food and prison lodgings. Presumably guilty prison food and prison lodgings. Presu havey guilty prison food and prison lodgings. Presu have to guilty prison food and prison lodgings. Presu have to pay guilty prison food and prison lodgings. Presu have to pay for guilty prison food and prison lodgings. Presu have to pay for that. Guilty prison food and prison lodgings. Presu have to pay for that. So jilty dont have to pay for that. So its a double whammy. Hes not only sentenced a crime only being sentenced for a crime he didnt commit, hes got to pay he didnt commit, hes got to pay chokey shouldnt even pay for chokey he shouldnt even have its absolutely outrageous. Yeah. One 100. And he and as he rightly says, there needs to be massive changes to this Justice System, to the police system, and, you know, this this just highlights another inadequacy in the whole system itself. You the reality of it is, you know, at the moment theres a massive thing of private prisons. You know, were running a system of prisoners for profit and having guy locked up for 17 years for something you didnt do thats going you didnt do well, thats going into of some of into the pockets of some of these prisons. You know, these private prisons. You know, last week theyll talk about locking more shoplifters. It locking up more shoplifters. It seems like as many as seems to me like get as many as you in jail, get get get you can in jail, get the get get the that we can make out the money that we can make out of and be happy for the of them. And be happy for the people, the investors, the shareholders in these in these prisons. Okay. Fascinating. Thank you, okay. Fascinating. Thank you, winston. Id love to talk to you again. Winston davis there, a former prisoner himself, again. Winston davis there, a former prisoner himself , just former prisoner himself, just beggars belief. Just makes your absolutely. Just makes your eyes back your head. Eyes roll back into your head. This even a thing. Well this was even a thing. Well i suppose common sense. Suppose its common sense. A good news story. And its a good news story. And we dont get many those we dont get many of those that common has prevailed and common sense has prevailed and theyve the rules on theyve now changed the rules on that now lets hope we get that. Now lets hope we get a little bit more good while little bit more good news while we commentator we talk to political commentator Bushra Sheikh and peter whittle, director of new culture Bushra Sheikh and peter whittle, directorim new culture Bushra Sheikh and peter whittle, directorim not new culture Bushra Sheikh and peter whittle, directorim not sure culturegot forum. Im not sure weve got that much good news to get through, we, folks . But through, have we, folks . But lets an lets try. This is an extraordinary story. Peter, lets woman who lets start with this woman who was for a surgery. Was in hospital for a surgery. We dont know what. And a Womens Health department. And there was a trans nurse. So there was a trans nurse. So a woman who was formerly a man and she said she didnt want to be treated by that person and therefore her treatment was delayed. Thats well delayed. Thats right. Well cancelled. Completely i this is a 5mm this is a very disturbing, alarming story. Bev Teresa Steele is the name of the woman in the telegraph. Yes, indeed. In the telegraph. Yes, indeed. As a result of the delay original, the original delay, she developed an abscess. Right. And so she actually is sort of claiming that in fact, you know, this delay could have killed her. I mean, basically what it amounts to is that she , this amounts to is that she, this trans nurse , went into her room trans nurse, went into her room. And basically even being ianed. And basically even being invited without being invited. She wasnt apparently even part of her particular care. But she of her particular care. But she then requested that i want single sex treatment for very intimate out arrangements. Of course. And i think shed also course. And i think shed also made it clear as well that she wanted to have single sex blues and also that she didnt want to talk about pronouns and things like this. But it really amounts to is that obviously the hospital said that in fact your beliefs just simply do not coincide with ours. Its absolutely. And so her her operation was cancelled. I mean, operation was cancelled. I mean, i think it is quite incredible. I think it is quite incredible. It also has strong in a way. I hope you can see what i mean here. It has strong links with for example, nigel story with the banks. And its like this the banks. And its like this political views coming into in this case, health care, for goodness sake. And i think it is it is absolutely outrageous. Theyre saying that this was the hospital is saying that its actually nothing to do with that. In actually nothing to do with that. In fact, you know that rather like with nigel as well, its nothing do with her its nothing to do with her views. But in here we have views. But in fact, here we have someone whose health has seriously suffered because of what she believed in. Bushra, we hear all the time the mantra trans rights are human rights. Clearly trans rights supersede womens rights, supersede womens right to privacy and health care in an intimate setting. Surely intimate setting. Surely a patient has every right to ask for the treatment they they want . 7 yeah. I . Yeah. I think the first thing is we have to understand that this is a protected group at the moment in Great Britain and probably globally. Me and a woman is entitled as a man is to have a preference, especially when it comes to hospital care, especially a woman, especially woman. Women should be protected. Women should be protected. And, you know, weve got this thing having the thing about having the protection, and protection, feeling safe and being someone that being with someone that understands to understands when it comes to intimate of body , we intimate parts of our body, we want be with someone. Want to be with someone. Because, look, im a woman. Because, look, im also a woman. Im also muslim. And had im also muslim. And when i had my children, a preference my children, i had a preference to have a or midwife who to have a doula or a midwife who was a woman because i felt comfortable like that. What comfortable like that. So what are talking about here . Are we talking about here . Because headlines because i saw some headlines over the to its over the weekend to say its controversial to ask for these things. Now. Its controversial andifs things. Now. Its controversial and its not. Its normal and natural. Natural. It isnt. And its about having the self esteem also in those settings, particularly in hospitals get hospitals where people get a case white coat syndrome and case of white coat syndrome and being up for being able to stand up for yourself, there are there are quite few midwives. Now, quite a few male midwives. Now, actually, its interesting that quite a few male midwives. Now, actu raise its interesting that quite a few male midwives. Now, actu raise its i|bushra, g that quite a few male midwives. Now, acturaiseits i|bushra, and at you raise that bushra, and when you raise that bushra, and when you into your place of birth, you go into your place of birth, whether its a hospital or birth centre, and you say, i would centre, and you can say, i would rather have a female midwife or male are often male midwives actually are often very, very because they very, very good because they often seek your permission where a female midwife might just do something body without something to your body without kind teeing it up. Just kind of teeing it up. Lets just say. And male midwife will say. And a male midwife will often ask the permission the often ask the permission of the woman, of their partner woman, but also of their partner. Mind if i give you an. Do you mind if i give you an examination . Thats examination . And thats what makes experience women makes the experience for women in often much more in hospitals often much more either a negative or a positive one is the fact that you feel that youre listened to that youre being listened to and also becomes an and it also becomes an imposition. Imposition. Its almost like the Trans Movement is being imposed on women, especially. You know, we women, especially. You know, we are feeling that. And then we had a story a few weeks ago when we said that there was an incredibly high rise of Sexual Assault happening in hospital wards. So tying it all together, you know, you can ask for the things that you want in hospital. I find this story bizarre. Power shift, isnt it . Its a funny power shift. Its actually not an isolated incident because there was she managed to raise a petition. She made a bit of a hue and cry about it. This this lady and as about it. This this lady and as a result learned of Different Cases where in fact care was going to withdrawn from going to be withdrawn from somebody again, had somebody who again, had what they gender critical views they call gender critical views. People who and im assuming. I people who and im assuming this is the case with this lady who believed that, you know, sex is immutable, that there is biological sex. In other words, normal people. Yeah. Okay. Normal people. Yeah. Okay. We do. Now we do. Now we do. Yeah, we do have a spokeswoman for princess spokeswoman for the princess grace said the Grace Hospital who said the following. Privacy and following. The privacy and dignity our patients is dignity of our patients is incredibly and we are incredibly important and we are incredibly important and we are in stages of reviewing in the final stages of reviewing our policy on this. Weve ianed our policy on this. Weve invited ms steele alongside others to provide their views and to help inform and insights to help inform these updates. So it looks like there might be good news coming out of this. Right. Were going to just interrupt for a moment. Interrupt you both for a moment. We to cross live to dorset. We want to cross live to dorset. Breaking news now. Our home and security editor mark white. We believe dorset for believe hes down in dorset for us. What is the latest down there, mark . Yeah we can confirm that the first group of migrants have now arrived on the bibby stockholm barge, the first of a number who will arrive today up to 50, were told. So the first group, a small group, arrived within the last houn group, arrived within the last hour. Of course, we saw that bus that came in to the main port at port island harbour. Those on board the bus had to go through initial security, but they are now being placed on the bibby stockholm barge and as i say, other buses en route to this location today with people that they picked up who are staying current in hotels around this area. We believe around the bournemouth area is where those migrant who will come to the bibby stockholm home today have been staying for a period of time. What the Home Office Said time. What the Home Office Said with regard to the people that the bibby stockholm barge will accommodate, it wont be peoples straight off the boat from the channel it will be people already housed in hotel accommodate who have been there for a while and then they will move those people, or at least a number of those people to the barge 50 today, by the end of today. And then within a few weeks to a few months , we are weeks to a few months, we are expecting that there will be a total of 500, although there is still the issue of fire safety and compliance with fire safety guidelines. And some suggest that actually this is not coming from the home office, though. But some people suggesting that we might not get to 500 on the barge, that it might be capped at half that number in order to remain comply with the fire safety regulations. But lets just see, as the weeks progress , whether they actually do to follow through with what they are saying, which is that 500 Asylum Seekers will go on to the bibby stockholm barge here in portland. Portland. Do we have any idea whether any media will be allowed onto the boat at any point . No the the boat at any point . No the media will not be allowed on to the boat. There was a facility a couple of weeks ago so that the media were invited to go. On were invited to go. On so we lost mark there. So we lost mark there. So we lost mark there. I think weve lost mark. I think weve lost mark. Weve lost mark. Lets cut back to our panel who are still here for a bit of reaction as far as im concerned, the locals didnt want it on either side of this debate. The anti racist didnt because they said this debate. The anti racist diwould because they said this debate. The anti racist diwould place ecause they said this debate. The anti racist diwould place too use they said this debate. The anti racist diwould place too much ey said this debate. The anti racist diwould place too much of said it would place too much of a strain on the nhs. The locals didnt want it for the same reason and for very real reasons of public safety. Bushra, how doesit of public safety. Bushra, how does it make feel see does it make you feel to see once again the British Public does it make you feel to see once totally he British Public does it make you feel to see once totally ignored . | public were totally ignored . I literally have to stop myself from laughing because again, results. Weve again, im about results. Weve just he just said 500 has gone down 250. Thats not even a down to 250. Thats not even a significant number. I genuinely feel that this is not going to work. Its not going to work. And putting 50 is a premier inn in hounslow. I mean, thats thats the point. How day and how much cheaperis point. How day and how much cheaper is that going be . The cheaper is that going to be . The whole of it being cheaper whole point of it being cheaper was theres going to be whole point of it being cheaper was people. Theres going to be whole point of it being cheaper was people. Thees going to be whole point of it being cheaper was people. The problem to be whole point of it being cheaper was people. The problem is be whole point of it being cheaper was people. The problem is the 500 people. The problem is the last word. 500 people. The problem is the lasttherd. 500 people. The problem is the lastthe problem with this bev, the problem with this bev, is, you know, your reporter was referring to them asylum referring to them as Asylum Seekers. Illegal seekers. These are Illegal Migrants. They are economic migrants. They are economic migrants part. They migrants for the most part. They are true Asylum Seekers. If are not true Asylum Seekers. If they then they would stay they were, then they would stay in france. Quite simple. In france. Its quite simple. I mean, think we get by mean, i think we get waylaid by all these kind of considerations if anything, they should be 4000 miles away on the Ascension Island. If theyve really got to be anywhere that might act as a kind of deterrent. I think kind of deterrent. I think people getting so angry people are getting so angry about indeed, including me. About it, indeed, including me. So thank you both. Peter whittle, buster shea, thank you so much.
