Brighton hove albion are officially the most Successful Club in the country financially. That is. And adam peaty is back. Country financially. That is. And adam peaty is back. Im ready for the olympics morning. Whilst theres quite a bit of rain across northern parts today, its better news further south if its drier and brighter weather youre after. Ill have the details shortly. So, leading the news this morning, the Prime Minister demanding answers from israel after seven aid workers, there were three british nationals amongst them were killed by an israeli missile strike. Yes. James henderson, whos 33, and john chapman, 57, both of whom are believed to have served in the royal marines, were named alongside james kirby , a former Army Rifleman and sniper marksman , as the three sniper marksman, as the three britons who had died. Britons who had died. Now, israels now facing questions about how all of this happened as the World Charity kitchen had alerted the Israeli Defence force to the route they were travelling on. It marked its cars with logos on the roof as well. As well. While Political Correspondent at the spectator, james heale joins us now. Good to see you this morning, james. I mean, this morning, james. I mean, this is absolutely horrific, isnt it . And of course, the Prime Minister now demanding answers. Absolutely. And i think its a testament to how serious this is, that weve seen such a striking response from the uk government and not just the government, opposition too, government, the opposition too, with releasing with keir starmer releasing a statement this statement condemning this in very words. Think the very strong words. I think the nature of this, as you were saying there, the fact that the world central, central kitchen was on convoy, was marked out on the convoy, the that there are some the fact that there are some reports suggesting that there were strikes were three different strikes involved the involved in this, that the people moved one people involved moved from one vehicle to the third. There was three strikes. The cars were a mile and a half apart. I mean, they didnt just have one explosion that that affected all three vehicles. So i thats makes this i mean, thats what makes this really sinister. And the fact that have been were that there have been were talking this , but theres that there have been were taliodd this , but theres that there have been were taliodd other this , but theres that there have been were taliodd other strikes ut theres that there have been were taliodd other strikes that1eres that there have been were taliodd other strikes that have 20 odd other strikes that have happened this year that happened so far this year that we talk about that. Its we dont talk about that. Its just how does an accident, so called like that, so called accident like that, like happen that is the question. Absolutely. And they would have discussed their route with the idf beforehand. So theyd the idf beforehand. So theyd had advance knowledge of of had advance knowledge of all of this. Think for these this. And i think for these reasons, i think one of the its the reason why were going to see of debate about this see a lot of debate about this in westminster today, because see a lot of debate about this in werwhyister today, because see a lot of debate about this in werwhy the today, because see a lot of debate about this in werwhy the israeli because thats why the israeli ambassador was hauled last ambassador was hauled in last night, people really night, because people are really concerned about this. And obviously that theyll obviously the fact that theyll be incidents be going other incidents unreported well. No unreported as well. And its no surprise theres also suggestions going to suggestions that its going to really affect supply of aid really affect the supply of aid going because this convoy really affect the supply of aid goinheadingzause this convoy really affect the supply of aid goinheadingzause tijust nvoy really affect the supply of aid goinheadingzause tijust docked was heading it only just docked on and it was on monday night and it was heading rafah provide sort heading to rafah to provide sort of starve off the starvation there. Food have there. The food could have provided meals. I provided a million meals. So i think thats to be one think thats going to be one real impact of this. And real world impact of this. And in westminster, debate is in westminster, the debate is going about is israel going to be about is israel breaching International Law in any areas. I think any different areas. So i think thats going thats what were going to see in terms the next 48 hours. In terms of the next 48 hours. As you say, i mean, and as you say, i mean, again, to add to the whole tragedy, fact a full tragedy, the fact that a full shipload of food turns back to cyprus nobody of it, cyprus and nobody avails of it, it doesnt happen. And are concerns, and there are concerns, though, there . Not that the though, are there . Not that the hamas benefits from lot of hamas benefits from a lot of this food, that they hijack it, they steal it, intercept it. Yes, there it. Yes, there is. It. Yes, there is. And theres also the way in which they have been have a track record of using certain aid agencies to try and advance an agenda, also trying to incidents like trying to exploit incidents like this as a way of sort of sowing up dissent and encouraging support in these areas. And whats so striking about this attack just the fact attack as well is just the fact that this charity had very that this charity had a very Good Relationship the Good Relationship with the israeli to other Israeli Forces compared to other ones, instance, whove ones, for instance, whove been quite so think quite critical, etc. So i think that for reason, its all that for that reason, its all the more damaging to have such an aid agency, which has enjoyed an aid agency, which has enjoyed a Good Relationship with the israeli authorities, now having to so i think to be turned back. So i think that going to really that thats going to really complicate going complicate the on going relationship the relationship between the netanyahu and these netanyahu government and these kind charities. Kind of charities. Netanyahu described kind of charities. As netanyahu described kind of charities. As a netanyahu described kind of charities. As a tragic yahu described kind of charities. As a tragic error. Described kind of charities. As a tragic error. Butdescribed this as a tragic error. But there are also questions this morning that this is deliberate targeting of aid workers. And thats certainly the thoughts of the ceo of the world central kitchen , who said that food is kitchen, who said that food is being used by the idf as a weapon of war. Absolutely. And the israelis will obviously come back and say that, you know, often this is used as a sort of an agenda for hamas as you were saying there. Eamonn, i think it really just shows which how many shows in which how many civilians really the civilians are really on the front is that front line here, which is that theres minority of different theres a minority of different combatants this, combatants involved in all this, but theyre ones really but theyre the ones really paying but theyre the ones really paying price. And thats why paying the price. And thats why youve about mass starvation in warning about mass starvation in places like rafah. Look at of the faces you look at some of the faces involved there and these fatalities, and we about fatalities, and we talk about civilian involvement in all of this. Know, people this. And, you know, people who are people doing are really good people doing this. I was if i was this. I mean, if i was if i was somebody who was asking me, do you want to be volunteer in you want to be a volunteer in helping out on all of this . No way. Absolutely no way. What does to put your your does it take to put your your life the for this sort life on the line for this sort of thing . Well, three very brave men, three veterans who are no one of them actually went over last month. Wed only been there a few weeks himself. James, what do you think happens next in terms of british israeli relations . Do this is relations . Do you think this is a turning point in this conflict . I its a very worrying i think its a very worrying flashpoint from of flashpoint from the view of british israeli relations. The ambassador was hauled in yesterday for a half an hour phone call, sorry for in person conversation. And i think that shows previously has shows that previously israel has been sort of close to the been very sort of close to the uk government terms of its uk government in terms of its few allies can count on few allies that can count on around world. And i think around the world. And i think the big debate now is going to be about the discussion around International Law. And the foreign received Foreign Office has that received advice israel has breached advice that israel has breached that it has, for that law . If it has, for instance, that would have obvious ramifications, the obvious ramifications, as the telegraph today telegraph reports today on things intelligence sharing things like intelligence sharing and sort of cooperation at different so i think different levels. So i think thats to be big thats going to be the big political debate, because the uk has moved to the has obviously moved to the position of calling for a ceasefire. But still remains ceasefire. But it still remains an israel. And if the if an ally of israel. And if the if the kind of incidents that were seeing on a more frequent level, politicians going politicians are obviously going to public backlash, to respond to a public backlash, and talking to mps, and i think that talking to mps, thats something thats really coming that see coming across is that people see this a lot self regarding, this a lot of self regarding, decent minded and get decent minded people and get pretty by it. So pretty horrified by it. So i think it going to be a big think it is going to be a big issue. Office issue. And the Foreign Office has conflicting advice on has given conflicting advice on whether received whether it has received that legal and i suspect legal guidance. And i suspect that were under a lot of pressure the few to pressure in the next few days to release publish that release it and publish that guidance full. Guidance in full. Mean, how come, absolutely. I mean, how come, what an action aid , that what is an action of aid, that that the idf are informed about it openly and that they go into great detail and say, these are our cars, this is our route. This is where well be. And yet these vehicles are individually targeted. Now, that is some mistake. If that is a mistake or it is a deliberate action or it is the sort of action that is going on without this man knowing about it. Netanyahu, it knowing about it. Netanyahu, it is embarrassing. Absolutely no doubt more than embarrassing. I mean, its again again, its murder. And it just will be interesting to see what the repercussions will be. Absolutely. I can only see it reducing support for israel. And they have to really make sure that its either malicious or careless or wilful. And so i think this is going to be a really big issue and test for uk israeli relations. Okay, james, thanks much okay, james, thanks very much indeed. To get indeed. Were going to get reaction viewers and reaction from viewers and listeners, well get you listeners, and well get you back well well talk about back and well well talk about what are saying about this what folk are saying about this for moment. Thank you very for the moment. Thank you very much thank you. Gb news much indeed. Thank you. Gb news gb it . What is it . What is it . At gb news. Com. Gb views at gb news. Com. Gb views at gb news. Com. No, its not gbviews gbnews. Uk views gbviews gbnews. Uk you said views gb views gb news. Com have your views on the news and well be here to reflect those throughout the program this morning. I just believe this is sinister. I dont believe this is an accident. And this is to calculated these cars were spread out over 1. 6 miles each was individually hit. No one has said weather from the skies or missiles on the ground, or from a tank, or from , handheld a tank, or from, handheld devices or whatever. No one has said exactly how these vehicles were struck, what they were struck with. So weve got to get details on that as well. A new landmark study from the United States has revealed vaping can increase the risk of Heart Failure by almost a fifth. Yes, researchers have tracked 175,000 participants and found that those who use e cigarettes are 19 more likely to develop Heart Failure. Heart failure. Well, thats a big study. So is it time to finally crack down on vaping . Joining us now, the director general of the uk vaping industry association, thats john dunne , whos a thats john dunne, whos a regular on the program and someone who nearly died from vaping, ewan fisher. But john, first of all, you know , im first of all, you know, im getting a bit fed up talking to you, john, to be quite truthful, youre always being called to defend whats going on here. This seems to be a pretty comprehensive, bought comprehensive, report bought into this. You must be concerned at some level about this. Well, first of all, you need to take a look at what the report actually says. And the researchers point out themselves that this does not show a causal link to heart disease. This is link to heart disease. This is purely an observational study of data. It is not a clinical trial, the data that we have seen from Clinical Trials actually says reverse the british heart foundations veritas study, for instance, shows that, significant improvements to vascular function within a month of switching from cigarettes to vapes. But nobody is saying that vapes. But nobody is saying that vapes are 100 safe. If you dont smoke, you shouldnt be vaping. But what we do know is that if you smoke, youre more than likely going to die from from doing that. So moving to from doing that. So moving to vaping is far less harmful for your health. But its not 100 risk free. Nothing in this world that we do is 100 risk free. Well , you that we do is 100 risk free. Well, you and you heard that, john, saying that its a lot safer than smoking, but you say you almost died from vaping. Yeah. So i had a very bad obviously reaction to vaping, that nearly ended my life. And so lucky to be here. So now im trying to spread the awareness and try and stop people, especially young people, vaping because theres not really much need to do it. Obviously, unless you smoke , smoking beforehand you smoke, smoking beforehand and switching as , john just and switching over as, john just said, people are getting obviously Many Health Problems from smoking, which we all know about because its been around for many years now, and a lot of tests have came forward and shown whos say shown that. But whos to say that the line, vaping isnt that down the line, vaping isnt going to have the exact same effects smoking does nowadays. If you started vaping at underage , didnt you . Did you underage, didnt you . Did you find that it was quite easy to get hold of a vape . Yeah, it was so simple. Yeah, 100. It was so simple. And i think its like that all around the country, like, i in my School Uniform when i could even my School Uniform when i could ever. I went into the shop one time by myself in my School Uniform, and ive also been in my uniform, and i could ask people go into the shop for people to go into the shop for me, and no one batted an eyelid. Point of john, from your point of view, are sales going . I view, how are sales going . I mean, how would look at the mean, how would you look at the overall business of vaping and tell us how popular it is . Is it growing in popularity . Has it levelled out . Is it declining . No, absolutely. Vaping continues to be, extremely popular in this country. In fact , its now the most successful way that adults quit smoking , way that adults quit smoking, its twice as effective as all of the other methods of Smoking Cessation products that are out there, but , you know, as you cessation products that are out there, but, you know, as you and said, there is a problem with young people getting these products, but they are illegal for young people to buy. Anybody under the age of 18 should not be getting access to these products. And this is one of the reasons why weve highlighted many things to the government, looking at things like licensed , looking at things like licensed, for instance, vape retailers for instance, of vape retailers to that only responsible to ensure that only responsible people are selling these products, but also looking at at increasing the fines to up to £10,000 per instance to anybody selling these products to young people. These are an age gated aduu people. These are an age gated adult products, and thats what theyre designed for, and thats who they should be sold to you. And do you think that we risk becoming a nanny state if we were to ban vaping entirely . It were to ban vaping entirely . It does increase the risk of Heart Failure. According to this study. But so does junk food. So does, you know, things like alcohol. And we wouldnt think to ban those. To ban those. Yeah. No, 100. I do understand where youre coming from , like if you were to ban from, like if you were to ban vaping and then obviously Everything Else that also can cause sort of problems , cause these sort of problems, then people would be looking at that also. So we cant get rid of everything that causes significant Health Problems of everything that causes significa wed alth problems of everything that causes significa wed be| problems of everything that causes significa wed be foreverms of everything that causes significa wed be forever banning because wed be forever banning everything. Thered be nothing left us do, but left for any of us do, but obviously with what ive been through and like the people around me that i care for, i would want, like , i am happy would want, like, i am happy that the age limits obviously are 18 for vaping and not 16. And also that like shopkeepers and whoever selling vape liquids would get a significant fine, and like the problems caused obviously from the shopkeepers selling to underage people is causing a significant effect on young ones. So i hope that the stuff that is being done to obviously stop this keeps getting stricter and stricter. Getting stricter and stricter. What is your your feeling . You and, you know, theres not theres not a high street in the land which isnt opening up vaping shops and outlets and whatever. And they they were all bright lights and look very happy places and whatever it is. So when you walk past or drive past one of these, what is your your overall feeling , especially your overall feeling, especially where i live, theres, our high street is bombarded with, vape shops , like, really, really bad, shops, like, really, really bad, you cant walk between ten, 15 shops without there being another one, and obviously its not nice for me as obviously ive been through a bad, bad time from all of this, but just me speaking about it is me trying to help and spread awareness to help people , and awareness to help people, and thats the most i can do. I cant take on the world, you know what i mean . Because, theres that many. Theres that many vape shops nowadays, theyd be very, very difficult to try and have a even bigger effect other than what i can do from just speaking. Yeah, they really are everywhere. Do you think everywhere. John, do you think there is enough awareness . I mean, you and is mean, obviously you and is talking about us now, but talking about it to us now, but do think there is enough do you think there is enough awareness there the awareness out there about the harms of vaping . Because with cigarettes get the pictures, cigarettes you get the pictures, dont on on the dont you. On the, on the outside of cigarettes, its quite the harms may quite clear what the harms may be. But you dont hear too much about harms of vaping. About the harms of vaping. First of all, youve well, first of all, youve got understand, know, you got to understand, you know, you and situation and i think ive lost count of the amount of interviews you and i have done together. Very rare, together. Ulez is a very rare, severe reaction to one severe allergic reaction to one of food flavourings within of the food flavourings within the liquid. Its not a very common situation, but what weve got to be really aware of is that theres so much misinformation out there on vaping, very similar to what were seeing in the media around this report today, you know, the report does not state what is being, bandied around in the headlines, but there is a huge opportunity , i think, for opportunity, i think, for sensible, Education Programs out there. But one of the issues is there. But one of the issues is the industry itself is being , the industry itself is being, basically muzzled by the regulations that are even getting worse. So its very hard for us, to challenge the misinformation thats out there. We rely very much on the government to do it. But as government to do it. But as weve seen in recent months, the government is taking actions that, frankly, are baffling to us, as far as, Public Health is concerned. So, john, i mean, there you are. You are running the industry, youre telling us how its going and whatever at the minute. Do you do you actually vape . Do you, do you do it . I, i vape on occasion. Im actually an ex smoker. I used to smoke three packs of cigarettes a day, and i lost both my parents to lung cancer from smoking. So im very aware of the issues that are going on, but what do know is that my but what i do know is that my occasional vaping will do me absolutely no harm whatsoever, its probably just as harmful for me as the coffee im drinking this morning. So im not worried about it at all. Okay, gentlemen. Thank you both for highlighting the argument. And people will have their say this morning. Really appreciate it. John dunne. And you fisher. Appreciate it. John dunne. And you fisher. Thank you. Keep. You and fisher. Thank you. Keep. Well, very much well, john. Thank you very much indeed. You. Thank you. Indeed. Thank you. Thank you.

Its villains in all of this.

Our friend jim dale weather expert jim dale said to me hes and said, look, me and hes and he said, look, theres lot of when it comes theres a lot of when it comes to sport, weather huge to sport, weather has a huge say in so if it rains in what goes on. So if it rains and the weather is very wet, the ground is slippery and the it affects the game and youre more likely to get lots of goals. So likely to get lots of goals. So im thinking spurs, west ham, it was miserable out there, but it was miserable out there, but it was one. Jim you know what . Was one one. Jim you know what . I expecting more. But did i was expecting more. But did Kalvin Phillips play last night. No didnt come on. No he no he didnt come on. No he didnt didnt come on didnt he didnt come on yesterday. It was lot of yesterday. But it was a lot of it just wasnt the spectacle. West ham set sat back and west ham set back sat back and spurs had a go. It was just a lot of little sideways. There wasnt enough shots. Thats 65 possession. Spurs only four shots were target. So shots that were on target. So west ham seven. Spurs needed more than a point really in that it needed a winner. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, absolutely. I mean go through a few i mean ill go through a few of the others. Ive got a few other bits and pieces. Ill keep it quick as well. Newcastle drew one one with everton, everton 13th Straight Premier League game the game without a win and its the worst. Ever was 1937 worst. Their worst ever was 1937 when they went 14, so. But a when they went 14, so. But a good result though to go away to newcastle. I think it was a good result. One one Dominic Calvert lewin scored. Forest beat fulham three one. Huge win for so puts them three for them so that puts them three points the drop zone. Then points above the drop zone. Then weve got bournemouth against crystal palace, their fourth win in five games. This is now theyre all they need. This is theyre all they need. This is the highest ever points total. If they get another six points bournemouth. So theyve done really well now burnley. Wolves. What happened. There was a major what happened. There was a major problem because there was a collapsing roof. This is probably the highlight of the game. It was one one against against wolves. So there was against wolves. So there was this huge piece of metal i think we might actually have. Look i dont theres dont know. Thats theres a huge of metal. Well huge piece of metal. Well probably just probably see that in just a second in burnley. And then this huge piece of metal, this is this is see theres all the empty seats now. You can just about see it. Someone spotted it that was coming down from the roof. There are. You see that roof. There we are. You see that little of there by the little bit of metal there by the lights . Can you imagine that lights . Can you imagine if that had fallen off the roof . Down onto the crowd . So what they had to evacuate part of the to do was evacuate part of the jemmy mcilroy because jemmy mcilroy stand, because that fallen that could have just fallen straight way down. Thats straight the way down. So thats why theres nobody sitting there just of this dangling just because of this dangling piece of metal. I dont know whether its a metaphor for their season before the game started or during the game. It was during during game. Was during the during the game. Hold is that up there . Hold on. What is that up there . So that was was the so that was that was the highlight. The highlight. That was the highlight. That was the highlight game. So one highlight of that game. So one one up there okay. One that ended up there okay. So we were talking about brighton. They manage the brighton. Yeah. They manage the club and club well financially and physically. Physically. Oh absolutely. The blooms and paul barber just so well oh absolutely. The blooms and paul barberjust so well run. Paul barber just so well run. You know its almost it almost gets boring when people say how well run brighton is. Gets boring when people say how well run brighton is. But it truly is brighton and hove albion. They have where you get clubs that are so much in trouble with profit and sustainability rules. Oh, you know what . Spending too much money, the clubs in trouble, other clubs going out of business. Theyve set a record for the biggest profit ever made by a british football club. Now, when it comes to finance stuff, its not really what i get real my interest in. But this is incredible. Worldwide, only barcelona have made more money than brighton and last year £122. 8 Million Pounds in profit. And if you think how much they spend on, you know, they have to spend on, you know, they have to spend on, you know, they have to spend on players wages , etc, spend on players wages, etc, backroom staff, oh its incredible. So includes 22 million they made for Graham Potter included chelsea selling players but they also have success. Its their best ever season on the pitch well. Success. Its their best ever seaand n the pitch well. Success. Its their best ever seaand n th they h well. Success. Its their best ever seaand n th they have well. Success. Its their best ever seaand n th they have aall. Success. Its their best ever seaand n th they have a roof and also they have a roof thats falling. Thats not falling. Do have roof that they do have a roof that doesnt fall down. Its a very solid roof. So theyve spent theyve spent money i spent money on i have absolutely, yeah. Turn to swimming and lets turn to swimming and weve adam yes. Weve got adam peaty. Yes. Right. Tell about adam. Right. Tell us about adam. Well its the gb swimming championships at the moment which you think. There used which you think. Yeah there used to the day when we get to be the day when we get swimming on grandstand. Everybody sees him. I always feel swimmers because feel sorry for swimmers because the only time its like adam peaty. Hes the greatest swimmer we had. Yeah. And the we have ever had. Yeah. And the only anybody talks only time anybody really talks about him is probably when hes in olympics. He was unbeaten in the olympics. He was unbeaten for years from 2014. Then for eight years from 2014. Then three years ago after the olympics after he won another gold, just hit a slippery slope. Gold, just hit a slippery slope. Mentally. He was struggling, struggled with alcohol and it just wasnt the adam peaty of the past. And ive got to say that of all the sports people ive met over the years, ive never met anybody quite so dnven never met anybody quite so driven as adam peaty. I mean, the main the man is incredible, but hes obviously something has triggered this. How old is he . How old is he . How old is he . Oh, god, i dont even know. Hes probably. Hes probably around 30. Hes hes but he is so successful. But now coming into the olympics hes now coming back into form. So im really, really pleased for him because it was a real wobble that went through , and now that he went through, and now hes out other hes coming out of the other side of it. But he is an incredible human being and it always makes you wonder what it is. Thats and always makes you wonder what it is. Thats and it always makes you wonder what it is. Thats and it often is. Thats true. And it often makes wonder when i think of makes me wonder when i think of how how sports people are how how great sports people are put theres something put together. Theres something that drives them, isnt it . Theres something that drives them. Other people dont have. Other people dont have. Something went wrong and and something went wrong and im what it was. But im not sure what it was. But anyway, hes back anyway, it looks like hes back on track again. On the right track again. This world is. No, this world is. No, this world is. Its a boring world. Too many people to give opinions people afraid to give opinions or yeah. Roy keane or say things. Yeah. Roy keane as a football pundit is not one of them, right . Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly. So there was a couple of things i want to say yesterday. I pointed out, guardiolas, attitude towards Jack Grealish, the rent on the pitch. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. After the arsenal city game on sunday. Yeah. And he did stuff with the lad chastising him on the pitch after the game, which i think should have been kept for the dressing room, grealish responded quite well to it, haaland. As well, he it, but haaland. As well, he basically said Erling Haaland , basically said Erling Haaland, roy keane basically said this. He played almost like a league two player. After the striker failed to spark in sundays drab nil nil title showdown in arsenal. I mean, haaland is a superb player. Yep, he did not have a good game. Hes not used very well by city. He sort of left on his own to do what he has to do. But keane , if it has to do. But keane, if it wasnt for roy keane and very few like him, i mean Gary Nevilles very, very good. Souness was good until they gave him an elbow soon as very, very good, as well. What do you have . Theres but what do you have . Theres a of i could, i could name a load of i could, i could name and say what. So thats it. We get thats the best opinion you get thats the best opinion you get or whatever. I mean, these bonng get or whatever. I mean, these boring tunnel interviews that reporters do, you know. Great game today. Yeah what are you going say. It wasnt a going to say. No, it wasnt a great game today. You know it s a waste of time. All that tunnel interviewing stuff. But, you know, theyre nervous of managers. Nervous of managers. Nervous of managers. Is the problem. Theres this is the problem. Theres a spoken to. Ive a lot ive spoken to. Ive spoken a well known spoken to a very well known commentator. Just other day, commentator. Just the other day, and saying that there a and hes saying that there was a lot of the talking. Lot of them, the talking. And theres that are theres a few of them that are very frosty. Obviously jurgen klopp, guardiola and even Ange Postecoglou days. And postecoglou these days. And theyre, theyre just theyre very upsetting very nervous about upsetting them. So the thing is its either you go for it, but then you get some clubs. If you upset them theyll say were youre banned, youre not coming back to so thats the to the club. So thats the reason. So its great have it. Its the way Alex Ferguson used to at man united. Used to operate at man united. You youre banned from you know youre banned from interviews. Good interviews. Thats no good is it. And the and the tv companies, all just about companies, its all just about getting games, the getting the games, getting the sponsorship that. So sponsorship for all of that. So theyre going to back as theyre not going to back you as a reporter. For asking a reporter. No for asking a difficult question. But but roy keane for him. Thats keane thank god for him. Thats my yeah. And i think my view. Yeah. And i think guardiola is a superb manager. Absolutely. Guardiola is a superb manager. Butolutely. Guardiola is a superb manager. But i utely. Guardiola is a superb manager. But i reckon be a right but i reckon hed be a right bore to live with. Or do reckon. Absolutely. Or do you reckon. Absolutely. Or do you reckon. Absolutely. Giving you all this all the time. Well hes, he lives and breathes the game so much. Yeah. You know it means, it means so much to him. And hes had success, success, success. But that has to come at a price. You know its the sort of person you are. Everything. Everything. Does it feel like if you and i are out socialising and i was just preaching and talking about this program. Yeah is finally what and which is finally what happened we up. Happened last time we were up. Yeah. Mr paul coyte, but i enjoyed that. I enjoyed because you were so nice about it. Thats what nice to me about it. Thats what it zigi at 7 20. Thanks paul zigi at 7 20. Thanks very much. Do you stay with us still to come, well be looking through the stories the day the biggest stories of the day with mccgwire and with Scarlett Mccgwire and claire thats next. Gb news is the home of free speech. We were created to champion it, and we deliver it day in, day out. Free speech allows us all to explore and debate openly the issues most important to us, our families, and of course, the british people having challenging conversations to enlighten each other. Is why we hear all other. Which is why we hear all sides of the argument. We are the peoples channel. We are the peoples channel. We are the peoples channel. We will always stand by the freedom to express yourself on tv, radio and online. This is gb news, britains news channel. News channel. Welcome back to breakfast. Time is 641. Lets take a look at some of the newspapers. Now, whether aid worker deaths in gaza dominate the front pages. The telegraph leads with the Prime Minister demanding answers after britons were killed in an israeli airstrike. The daily mail continues with the three british aid workers killed in gaza. British aid workers killed in gaza. The guardian leads with gaza. The guardian leads with charities halting gaza aid after a drone attack, and the times comments on sir keir starmer targeting voters who want more housing. Well, joining us now to go through those stories and lots more Scarlett Mccgwire and claire muldoon. Very good to see you both. And morning, morning. You both. And morning, morning. Were leading with the missile strike. Whatever it was on the food convoy in gaza , scarlett, i food convoy in gaza, scarlett, i this reeks this really this is targeted. This was three separate vehicles over 1. 6 miles, and each were hit separately. I know, i mean, what an and so it was targeted. Yeah. I mean , this wasnt just a missile liv golf. No, no. And they were these were three. But whats worse is that the people who were hit first went to the second vehicle where they were hit again. So by the third, the time the third one, all the aid workers were killed. And you just think. And then and then netanyahu goes, well, thats war. And you think, yeah , thats war. And you think, yeah, thats your war. I mean, this is this is really , really serious is really, really serious information was given. The route was given. The route was given. Absolutely. These people as to where they were going and what vehicles they were in. So either the biggest moron on the planet was behind this or, they deliberately did it. I know, and you just have to ask questions about about the effect. I mean, i mean, because effect. I mean, i mean, because whats so terrible is so much of the theyre not going to aid workers are now being pulled out of gaza. Yeah. Right. So that that the ship was turned back, the ship was turned back even less food. But 200 aid workers have been killed in gaza by israeli strikes. I mean, this is absolutely terrible. And the absolutely terrible. And the israelis say, oh, you know, there isnt really a food problem in gaza. Its hamas whos taking it all. But actually, i mean, theres complete and utter chaos in gaza because you needed i mean, it was interesting that the three brits who died were security people. I mean, they werent people. I mean, they werent there to they were there to make sure the food got distributed properly. Properly, i mean , the properly. Properly, i mean, the other people who died were were aid workers and, and you need security people because , security people because, because, i mean, its not just dangerous from the israelis, but actually you need security people to make sure this food is being distributed properly without them. Without them, without them. Without them, theres chaos without them. Its sort of the strongest gets there. I think its a terrible story. Story. And claire, what they used to mean, we dont know if this came from a tank, from the air. If it was ground missiles, handheld missiles, we dont , we dont missiles, we dont, we dont know yet and i dont see why that hasnt been announced yet. Well exactly. I agree. And its as scarlett said, it will be anarchy in gaza and the gaza strip if they cannot get that humanitarian aid in. And, you know, do we know the nationalities of the aid workers 7 nationalities of the aid workers . Are they all palestinian . You know, it surely every life matters. It doesnt matter what nationality you are, what religion you are. This war on the gaza strip between hamas, palestinian and Israeli Forces are just is just horrendous and it has to be stopped at all costs. Whereas david cameron, now when he was calling for a ceasefire, why isnt other people saying now we need to deal with this, we need to get netanyahu, we need to sit him down and we need to find out whats happening. Do you remember that they sent all the refugees rafah and then the refugees to rafah and then the size of what, 4 or 5 football pitches . And then netanyahu targeted at rafah and said he was going to target rafah, where we are still selling arms to the israelis . Well, thats the next question, isnt it . Alicia kearns, the chairman of the Foreign Affairs committee, has said if israel is not committing itself international itself to International Humanitarian , it would have humanitarian law, it would have implications intelligence implications for intelligence sharing and arms sales. And thats going to be the question whether we should be scaling back on intelligence sharing. What are we doing . What are we doing . Were killing thats were killing people. Thats exactly were killing people. Thats exa precisely. Claire i mean, you precisely. Claire i mean, you know, the these these arms sales are being used to kill palestinians. And as it happens, aid workers and journalists. I mean, it is incredible the way these people are being killed. I mean, what are we up to, 33, 34,000 . I mean, how many people have to die before we say no . Enoughis have to die before we say no . Enough is enough. And they go on about the hostages. Well, so about the hostages. Well, so far, an israeli strike has managed to free three hostages, a ceasefire managed to free over 100, 100. And thats what we want. And thats what actually you know, and there are now, demonstrations in israel against netanyahu because they realise that this is not working. That this is not working. I was listening to an israeli woman this morning, actually, who said she was so proud of her country, and she loves her country, and she loves her country so much. But she is appalled at what is being carried netanyahus carried out by netanyahus government. Theres a lot of people that. People like that. Claire, yesterday and claire, yesterday i wanted to speak to you. Yesterday, i wanted your views on, this, hate crime bill in scotland. Yeah. And mr humza in scotland. Yeah. And mr humza yousaf, who always seems angry , yousaf, who always seems angry, he seems for such a young man. I always think he speaks in a very intimidating and threatening way. I find his tone always very angry. Hes represented well. Ill say what i think hes representing, but its just, you know, i just say, lighten up, mate, but he doesnt lighten up now with this hate crime bill, j. K. Rowling comes out and criticises it yesterday. What is your take . Because i think lots of english people and irish people and welsh people can talk about this, but we want to hear what scottish people think about this. What do you think scottish people . Know that the scots i know that from the scots that that my family and that still that my family and friends are still there, are absolutely appalled at the money wasting. This wasting. Not only that, this bill contributed to the bill has contributed to the fiscal purse, but also we need to remember this was a bill that was brought in in 2021, and its the difficulty of it, the legislation of it thats taken three years for it to come to any form of fruition. Who knew any form of fruition. Who knew the date would be april the first for this to be brought in . The biggest april fool of the snp has made, in my view, at this point it cannot go on. Its unsustainable and people have to vote with their feet at the next general election. Get the snp cabal out because it is just an absolute anathema. This law , or absolute anathema. This law, or scarlet scotland, is a complete sin bin of people who hate each other in in various ways , and other in in various ways, and this is needed. I mean, i dont know, im only putting it out there, claire, you know, i mean , i claire, you know, i mean, i mean, i, i dont know whether i agree with claire or not. What i certainly am finding really difficult is jk rowlings tweets because her her absolute sort of phobia about trans people. And you think shes not phobic. Scarlett. Well, claire, shes scarlett. Well, claire, shes stating biological fact. Well, i, i happen to believe that it sort of live and let live and if a few people feel very, very unhappy in the sex in which they were born and they want to change, and this has been going on this theres nothing new about this. Nothing new about this. You finish. You didnt finish there, scarlett. You said they wanted change then you wanted to change and then you moved change what . Moved on. Change what . Their gender. Change . Their gender. Change . Their gender. Gender . You can change your genden gender . You can change your gender, but cant change gender, but you cant change your sex. P pn your sex. Want change their so they want to change their genden so they want to change their gender. Actually, i mean, gender. And actually, i mean, i remember, years ago remember, i mean, years ago before being appalled , when some before being appalled, when some poor woman at a, at an all all woman at newnham college, cambridge, which is all female, was outed because she was trans. I mean , you just think by and by i mean, you just think by and by and large, why cant we just let people be and why do we have to have this this the thing is its affecting other people. Letting them be is fine, but then it affects how other people have to behave and what other people have to accept it. But this law, but this law bringing in not one, 0. 1 of the population, thats not even equivalent to what the number of trans in scotland actually is. But this law , humza yousaf but this law, humza yousaf himself has said there is such a high benchmark for it actually to get to court that the Police Scotland now have said, well, look, we dont actually have the guidelines , we dont have the guidelines, we dont have the tools to be effective to and enable us to protect those that need to be protected. But ill tell you Something Else thats eamonn will will know to himself if in glasgow and the 4th of july they have the orange walks , july they have the orange walks, thats completely anti catholic and thats completely anti catholic and protected thats completely anti catholic and protected. And that religion is protected. This law is going to be an absolute farce. Scarlet, because scotland has got very sectarian issues knee deep in it. In fact, especially when you have the old firm games, which is particularly this weekend , which particularly this weekend, which is rangers versus celtic, its horrendous. Surely that is covered by this as well. It is, but how is it going to be policed . But its clear that its clear this law isnt going to work isnt it. I mean the police have i mean, you know, j. K. Rowling has said said, you rowling has said has said, you know, do me if you can. And the police have said, no, were not going mean , clearly what going to. I mean, clearly what i am, what i saying is, is, is am, what i am saying is, is, is actually theres nothing great about speech. I think the i about hate speech. I think the i dont think anyone does think there is falling. Right. I dont think anyone is saying theres anything great about hate speech, but i would far rather out in the open far rather it be out in the open. I would far rather i knew what i was dealing with. I far, far, rather i could hear what was being said. Its my right to being said. And its my right to being said. And its my right to be offended not. Its be offended or not. And its their right to say whatever they want me. Their right to say whatever they warand me. Their right to say whatever they warand he. Their right to say whatever they warand i would come away with, and i would come away with, you if i was scottish and you know, if i was scottish and voting, id be saying, what sort of we have as of eejits do we have as politicians that time and politicians that waste time and time and money all of this time and money on . All of this is something that can only be implemented we just put implemented again, we just put it there. Mean, i think it out there. I mean, i think a lot of politicians are egypts. I think the system absolutely eamonn worse the people. Eamonn worse than the people. But this is a this mr but i think this is a this mr angry humza himself there, theres hes always got something to theres always something. And do you know what. Theres always Something Else. He takes his mind off the ferries, the calmac deals, the education on the drink, the drugs, the minimum unit spent for alcohol units. Its awful. If i was running scotland or Northern Ireland or anywhere, youd do a betterjob than him. Well, i would be saying we are proud of our country. We are. Lets build up everything that we are really good at and whatever. With him. Its like, i think scotland, i dont know if i want to go there like scotland had John Logie Baird invented tv and baird invented the tv and Alexander Fleming penicillin there was. Weve got such great, heritage in scotland. We should be building on that. We had fantastic tertiary education, fantastic tertiary education, fantastic education services. Fantastic education services. Now weve got nothing. Okay. Because of the snp, not in spite of. Lets talk about another place that may have something. Its a place called homs chapel, not named after me, but, but it could be. But it could be. I nearly bought a house in Holmes Chapel once. Did you . Yeah, for that reason. Just. Yeah. For that reason . Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Was it not because it was close to Manchester United . Mr holmes . That was the real reason. And, you know, so. But anyway , nearly, nearly came to fruition, but the whole thing about Holmes Chapel is claire, who lives there. Well , the one and only harry well, the one and only harry mighty st giles from one direction, or as theyre now known, no direction. This is a known, no direction. This is a beautiful story because theres a 5000 people travel to see where harry styles had his first kiss in the via near the viaduct. His first kiss. Hes done a few since then. Harry the visit, the Chinese Restaurant that he took taylor swift to. I think we might have our own dolly land here. Actually, in Holmes Chapel. He worked in the bakery, didnt he . He did. He had a saturday job. Yeah so thats all you gen zers out there . Go and get saturday jobs and then you might end up a superstar. So whats so lovely about this story is that theyre looking volunteers to take looking for volunteers to take tour groups around, and you have tour groups around, and you have to harry styles look alike, to be a harry styles look alike, obviously. So this is great. Finally all these all these sort of teenage girls and older , can of teenage girls and older, can actually do something with their obsession with harry styles. This is this is. Well have to let my sister know shes a massive super fan. Is she . Is she . Oh, yeah. I took her to see harry styles last year. She was a wreck, an absolute wreck. Standing there crying her eyes out. Oh, get grip. I see. But out. Oh, get a grip. I see. But we can send her in this direction. Yeah. No, i have a family. Kosovo come and stay with and they come and stay with me. And they came they came over last came over. They came over last year to see harry styles. Theyre coming this theyre coming again this weekend a weekend so i can. Oh, hes a talented lad. Weekend so i can. Oh, hes a taleheed lad. Weekend so i can. Oh, hes a talehe islad. Weekend so i can. Oh, hes a talehe is very good looking. He is very good looking. He is very good looking. Talented lad actually. Talented lad actually. Pretty sure harrys well, im pretty sure harrys family lived there. I family still lived there. I think his mum still does. Yeah, yeah , thats thats yeah, yeah, thats thats what it said. What part of that did you not understand . I think his his family. I think his family, we were getting on so well i think his mum mums there. Getting on so well i think his mum mums there. Oh getting on so well i think his mum mums there. On we were mum mums there. On we were getting on so well. Getting on so well. He is very, he is very close to his mum and hes very humble as well. When we did go to that and i dont have much to do with harry styles, but when we did go to that concert last year, he said he was really grateful to his he seemed very his family. He seemed very humble. That nice . Yeah i isnt that nice . Yeah i a nice boy who loves his mum. My son. Please note. Yeah, we like people who love their mum. We do. Yeah. We do. Yeah. We do. Property i ever bought first, property i ever bought was in a place was an apartment in a place called stranmillis road in belfast. That was all very belfast. And that was all very good. Just three good. It was, what, just three floors apartments . Whatever floors of apartments . Whatever and that was it. Until the belfast tour bus would stop outside everybody. And an open top bus. That old point. And then the tannoy would go and i hear to the right, thats where our tv presenter Eamonn Holmes lives , and youd be there in lives, and youd be there in your dressing gown. I think thats brilliant. Oh i think thats brilliant. Oh dear me guys. Thank you. Thank you. Price of fame eamonn isnt it terrible. No ones ever done it since so thats fine.

Avoided abroad. And it is full this morning. Three one ones out of five games in the premier league last night, with wins for forest and bournemouth as football clubs break rules for overspending. Brighton and hove albion are making a fortune and talking about making a fortune. A punter about making a fortune. A punter has put £17 each way, bet on the horses this week and is now an extremely rich man. Morning. Whilst theres quite a bit of rain across northern parts today, its better news further south if its dry and brighter weather youre after. Ill have the details shortly. And thanks very much for having your say this morning on the gaza situation. And these aid workers who have been killed, archie says its terrible that they have died. There must be an investigation into that. Were going to be talking about that next. And, stephen says theres a veteran of the british army. It was clear to us if we were mobilised to a theatre of war, we were in harms way. And whether youre an aid worker or not, your life is in jeopardy. An aid worker or not, your life is in jeopardy. And lets now is in jeopardy. And lets now talk to james heale about this. And whats your whole view on what has happened . What has happened . Well, i think that whats so striking about this is the kind of unanimity of opinion on it in westminster, on it clearly. Westminster, on it clearly. Obviously, lots of aid workers have died, but not three british aid workers in this kind of incident. And thats the reason why i think a lot of british politicians today feel very emboldened criticise very emboldened to criticise israel and whats happened here. Even themselves even the israelis themselves have said, you know, there was a mistake here. The israeli president apologised president has now apologised overnight. Whats overnight. And i think whats interesting overnight us interesting is that overnight us president has come out President Biden has come out in this year a tough this year facing a tough re election and said, you know, he is heartbroken and appalled by well. So this isnt by this as well. So this isnt just british thing. Just a british thing. What about netanyahu this is what about netanyahu in he can say, in in all of this, he can say, well, this is terrible. This is awful. Question. Why did he awful. Big question. Why did he not about it . Is the not know about it . Is the military operating independently not know about it . Is the mipoliticians, ting independently not know about it . Is the mipoliticians, org independently not know about it . Is the mipoliticians, or dordependently of politicians, or do politicians know about this . And netanyahus pretending they didnt. Didnt. So i think about three different israeli officials sort of have to sign this off. Theres a legal adviser, theres a military adviser, and all of this, when they go through this process for launching strikes, im it have come im not sure it would have come up personally as a kind up to him personally as a kind of political level. I think of political level. But i think clearly netanyahu has adopted a policy quite a hard line on policy of quite a hard line on all this and really a kind of all of this and really a kind of safety approach in terms all of this and really a kind of sadealing approach in terms all of this and really a kind of sadealing withroach in terms all of this and really a kind of sadealing with hamas, terms all of this and really a kind of sadealing with hamas, which is of dealing with hamas, which is obviously, think theres obviously, if they think theres a operative here, a hamas operative in here, they were going it out were going to take it out regardless what happened with regardless of what happened with the workers well. The other aid workers as well. In his own political in terms of his own political situation, there was protests. Thousands of israelis protested against sunday so against him on sunday night. So i that really there is a i think that really there is a point the issue point where, you know, the issue of competence is coming of kind of competence is coming up say, hang on a up where people say, hang on a sec, youre killing the wrong people, alienating us internationally. Actually, people, alienating us intythinkonally. Actually, people, alienating us intythink hesy. Actually, people, alienating us intythink hes coming ctually, people, alienating us intythink hes coming under, do think hes coming under pressure right israel. So pressure right now in israel. So its really keep its something to really keep an eye over coming weeks, eye on over the coming weeks, particularly hes isolated particularly if hes isolated from america, which, of course, is most important is israels most important ally. You think well, what do you think happens next, james, diplomatically, think diplomatically, do you think this turning point . This could be a turning point . Because saw, didnt the because we saw, didnt we, the israeli being called israeli ambassador being called in first time in yesterday for the first time in yesterday for the first time in years . Yeah. In 12 years . Yeah. I mean, i think it was more a flash point than turning point flash point than a turning point in i think, you know, right in that i think, you know, right now about how warning. Now its more about how warning. But i think if similar incidents like this do then like this do happen, then i think is to think clearly israel is going to find itself increasingly denied allies because allies within the uk because politicians willing to politicians are willing to support to a point, support it up to a point, obviously remembers what happened october, happened on the 7th of october, etc. But of the and etc. But some of the conduct and way which been way in which theyve been operating is clearly very concerning. Thats what concerning. And thats what people are saying and people are saying publicly and what theyre saying even more vociferously, privately as well. Was deliberate. Look, this was deliberate. This this this was targeted, this was three over this was targeted, this was thr from ground or if it was a helicopter aeroplane involved or a tank whatever. When helicopter aeroplane involved or a ta of whatever. When helicopter aeroplane involved or a ta of the, hatever. When helicopter aeroplane involved or a ta of the, the ever. When helicopter aeroplane involved or a ta of the, the people when helicopter aeroplane involved or a ta of the, the people in when helicopter aeroplane involved or a ta of the, the people in the] two of the, the people in the first car tried to get into the second car, after the attack happened, the second car was then hit, as you said, these cars were branded. They had the cars were branded. They had the sign of the kitchen on the roofs as well. And then the third car, these were deliberately, systematically targeted. So this isnt an accident. This isnt something that just happens from, you know , a wild explosion from, you know, a wild explosion going off somewhere. And this was just unfortunate. This was was just unfortunate. This was deliberate. Yeah. And i think so far the israelis have been pretty honest about the fact that they were the ones responsible. And there hasnt been much defence. But the only kind of defence thats been mustard the kind been selling mustard is the kind of, is war. War. Of, well, this is war. War. These happen war. And these things happen in war. And yes, understand that. Yes, one can understand that. But you say, eamonn but equally, as you say, eamonn there, know the there there, you know the fact there were attacks were three different attacks involved fact that involved in this, the fact that they across, according they occurred across, according to two to reports, a range of two kilometres. Wasnt of kilometres. So it wasnt kind of just going off just one bomb going off randomly. Itsjust just one bomb going off randomly. Its just a more kind of approach it, of sustained approach to it, which reasons why which is one of the reasons why it egregious, because, as it is so egregious, because, as you the report suggests you say, the report suggests they vehicle they went from vehicle to vehicle vehicle. They went from vehicle to vehyeah. Vehicle. They went from vehicle to vehyeah. Well, le. They went from vehicle to vehyeah. Well, lets get more yeah. Well, lets get more insight into the just how detailed this was. Yeah security analyst will geddes we get wills take on this now, well, you know, youve been to these areas youve served there, what do you make about what went on . Well, i mean, its very, very difficult to say at this early stage. I mean, i think we all agree. And you know, the fog of war can present all sorts of potential challenges in terms of information and intelligence about whos doing what and where theyre doing it. And i can only speculate right now, but obviously, condolences to the families , obviously, of the aid families, obviously, of the aid workers that were killed in this incident. But one of the things that certainly is happening right in gaza is its a real right now in gaza is its a real mesh of problems between a non clear or unclear combatant on the side of hamas in terms of their integration with the civilian population. And obviously the Israeli Forces and the idf in terms of how theyre carrying out their strategic strikes in certain key areas. Strikes in certain key areas. And there are many, many different factors here. Theres been 196 aid workers that have been 196 aid workers that have been killed in gaza to date, since this conflict started. And since this conflict started. And certainly having operated, as you say, in war zones and conflict zones, one of the things that obviously aid workers are always going to be prone and vulnerable to is that they are moving into various key areas to supply and support humanitarian aid, but inevitably , if you have a combatant like hamas that are using civilians as human shields, theres going to be a risk. As human shields, theres going to be a risk. Now, as human shields, theres going to be a risk. Now, whether that to be a risk. Now, whether that inevitably has any bearing on this instance, that time will only tell when the investigation is carried out and details are revealed as to why this particular strike was undertaken. Well, youve worked in conflict zones yourself. What we understand about these three british men is they were working with aid workers, but they were actually security. They were actually security. They were there to help with the safe distribution of food. Weve just had an email in from a viewer. You might have heard it from steven, whos also a veteran of the british army. Now, he says that were to be mobilised that if he were to be mobilised into a zone, he knows hes into a war zone, he knows hes into a war zone, he knows hes in that in harms way and he knows that his jeopardy. Now, his life is in jeopardy. Now, would men be aware of would these men be aware of that . Or would you think that on this that they say they this route that they say they shared the idf that they shared with the idf that they were that they say were in vehicles that they say were in vehicles that they say were clearly with were clearly branded with logos, that they would believe that they were actually safe . Well, ali, you make a very good point. I mean, the first point is, yes, you go and operate in a conflict zone in whatever you are whatever capacity you are putting yourself directly in harms the second side, harms way. The second side, which is identification of which is the identification of vehicles purely by decals and by by signage , is insufficient. By signage, is insufficient. There are certain aid workers and many of the well organised aid workers. Im not saying world central kitchen wasnt within this category, but many of them will provide transponders. Theyll provide trackers that can be then notified to opposing forces , or, notified to opposing forces, or, if you like, the majority forces to say this is where were operating, this is what were doing, and you will inform them if you are supplying aid to certain specific areas. Now if world central kitchen had done that, theyd provided those tags, those electronic tags, so the idf could see where their vehicles were operating. The second question and the environments within their operating the question has to then be presented to the idf as to why they targeted them. Now, the one thing that we do know about hamas is that they have used civilian vehicles. Theyve used civilian vehicles. Theyve used aid vehicles. Theyve also used aid vehicles. Theyve also used ambulances to move weapons , used ambulances to move weapons, to use move resources around the place. So again, its not as clear cut as one might initially think, but im i think the jury has to remain out right now until we know more information. But these three individuals, as you say, ali, were part of the security contingent obviously for world central kitchen. And theres got to be a question raised about them that they would have the traditional skill sets and the knowledge to know how they should be operating, where they should be operating , where they should be operating, because not only do they need to keep themselves safe, but also those that are also working within central kitchen. Within world central kitchen. Just just to get this well, just just to get this clear , i dont see this as an clear, i dont see this as an accident. I mean, this this looks to me as if this was, thought out. Definitely. There thought out. Definitely. There was a there was a plan to this. They didnt just by chance. This wasnt Collateral Damage or whatever it was. This was specific targeting. As yet. We specific targeting. As yet. We havent been told. By what . By whom , where, from the sky or the whom, where, from the sky or the ground or whatever. And what is your take on it . I mean, deliberate i to be honest, damon, i agree with you. It is definitely a targeted attack because we see the vehicles, as you say , they vehicles, as you say, they cross decked from one vehicle to another to another and there were three separate strikes which were undertaken here. The biggest question that needs to be answered here is motive. Why be answered here is motive. Why did they target these particular vehicles and those are the questions that i need answers to. And i think we all need answers to determine in this answers to determine why in this particular were particular instance, they were focused on. Because i would agree with you. This is targeted. This is not Collateral Damage by any stretch. Okay. Will geddes, thank you okay. Will geddes, thank you very much indeed the very much indeed for the security take on on all of that. Thank you. James heale right. Okay. So hes agreeing with me. This looks very targeted, very deliberate. What about the political fallout of all of this . Well, i understand this morning theres a nato summit going on in brussels, and before that, expecting david that, were expecting david cameron, secretary, cameron, the foreign secretary, to statement the to make a statement to the cameras. Expect see cameras. And i expect well see similar kind language that similar kind of language that weve i weve seen beforehand. And i think quite think whats really quite striking that were striking now is that were already calls by already seeing some calls by certain like alistair certain people, like alistair burt, former office burt, the former Foreign Office minister, for a kind of suspension israel arms sales, suspension of israel arms sales, as. So i think thats going as well. So i think thats going to next key Battle Ground to be the next key Battle Ground is the legal advice about is should the legal advice about israel committing war israel committing potential war crimes from the crimes be released from the foreign second of Foreign Office and second of all, advice points a all, if that advice points to a breach of international are breach of International Law, are we a debate we going to be in a debate around suspending arms sales to israel, happened and israel, as happened in 1982 and 2002 israel, as happened in 1982 and 20 and james appreciate it. And james appreciate it. James the editor at the james is the diary editor at the spectator. Thank you very much spectator. Thank you very much indeed. Spectator. Thank you very much indynow muslim teacher in now a muslim teacher in birmingham, aqib khan has been sacked for undermining fundamental British Values by teaching regulation. Agency professional Misconduct Panel are our West Midlands reporter jack carson. Jack carson. Im going to go to him live and find out the fallout of all of this, my only question about all of this, jack, is how did it take them so long to sack him . Take them so long to sack him . Yeah. So the actions in particular, which the Teaching Regulation Agency were investigating, they were assessing a. Q. Khan or a. Q. Khan over comments made between may 2021 and march last year. So hes the 30 year old man teacher of english here at the Harborne Academy in in birmingham. And academy in in birmingham. And actually it was a teacher themselves had actually reported themselves had actually reported the comments that mr khan had made through the own schools safeguarding portal. The school then conducted an internal investigation which interviewed several pupils, noted including and when they noted and sent their report, of course, to the to the tra, they noted the suggestion of inappropriate religious views as well as harmful comments about dating and relationships. I think its important just to provide some of, of course, the comments which the investigator nation itself heard, some of them include if you believe in feminism, if you believe in aborting babies, in man and man and woman and a man and woman being married, if you believe in working until you are 35 years old, not having children, if old, not having any children, if you all your stuff that you believe all your stuff that he that believe but he said that believe in it. But he said that believe in it. But he says, telling you one he says, im telling you one fact, going to get fact, youre going to get replaced muslims even faster. Replaced by muslims even faster. They replace they will replace you even faster. Some of the faster. Thats some of the comments made, comments of course, he made, including a one point including calling a one point muslim western women lunatics and the tra found that it was determined that hed failed to maintain professional, professional standards. The panel also considered him to have undermined fundamental British Values , they say, British Values, they say, including individual liberty and Mutual Respect and tolerance of those different faiths and beliefs. Its also hurt the investigation. The panel itself also heard that he had sent a series of what theyre calling professionally unacceptable messages on Microsoft Teams. In a group chat , messages on Microsoft Teams. In a group chat, and that that a group chat itself, which involved pupils. One of those involved pupils. One of those was a topless picture, of himself flexing, and then , as himself flexing, and then, as i said, he began teaching at the school in 2020. These actions are believed to have took place between 2021 and 2023. We have approached the academy for a comment and have yet to receive one. And if mr khan would like to appeal this decision , this to appeal this decision, this ban, this indefinite ban, he can do so from the 18th of march, 2026. Okay. Jack carson, thank you very much indeed. So theres going to be questions about why this man was even in the teaching profession in the first place, or how he managed to get that job the first place. That job in the first place. Yeah. Yeah. So have a view, w have a view, you so if you have a view, you have an opinion, please do get in touch. Gb views gb news. Com. Wed love to hear from you.

But no no, no, the little ones have to be looked after or even this is the worst idea ive ever heard. Are you bnng idea ive ever heard. Are you bring them into work with you . Are you okay, frederick . Yes. You okay . Sybil. Yes. Not okay. Sybil. Yes. Not okay. Sybil. Yes. Not okay. Sybil. Yeah sybil. Yeah oh, for goodness sake. Because it all then turns to them. Its all about them. Entrepreneur and commentator amy ansell, who agrees with this. She says no , forget that. And she says no, forget that. And the host of podcast how not to screw up your kids. Doctor marion mundt and who says yes . So use some sort of sadist , so use some sort of sadist, marion. Or what . What what should your your thinking behind all this . Im no sadist. Im a pragmatist. Im no sadist. Im a pragmatist. And the reality is, pragmatist. And the reality is, i dont think we can really hark back to those good old days when we used to leave children unsupervised at home. We have more women in the workforce than we have ever had before , and two we have ever had before, and two thirds cant hear. Somebody please man, could somebody please raise the sound . The same raise the sound . Its the same with interview. With every interview. Can you hear me, man . Two can you hear me, man . Two thirds of parents are are struggling with childcare in school holidays, so we dont have an alternative. Really they dont have an alternative. Well, what if they alternative. Well, what if they dont have an alternative . Amy well, they have to find a way where theres a will. Theres a way. I think bringing a child to work is unprofessional. Its inappropriate. Its disruptive, andifs inappropriate. Its disruptive, and its really a liability. Theres no place for a child at work. As a matter of fact, i was supposed to be in the studio today, and my husband got a last minute call that he had to be in the office super early this morning. So i changed my plans. Obviously, im working from home, been home, it would have been terribly disruptive and i would have been totally distracted if i had to bring my son with me to gb news. Itsjust wrong i had to bring my son with me to gb news. Its just wrong and inappropriate and shouldnt happen. Amy, not only would you have been distracted, everybody else would and its would be distracted, and its not much. Absolutely. Its not so much. Absolutely. Its not so much. Absolutely. Its not much. Absolutely. Not so much. Absolutely. Whether the children behave or not, you see, im quite in favour of being allowed to bring your pet, into work. What are you laughing at . Thats a good idea. Thats a good idea. Pet doesnt talk back or say, can i have crayons or watch something on tv or whatever it is . The pet is much more relaxing and to have around. But relaxing and to have around. But the is, everybody then the thing is, everybody then feels their obligation to feels its their obligation to be nice to two little brats or so that have been brought into into work, when actually theyre all here to work and get on and produce something at the end of the day. So my point is, amy, its not just about, you, the parent wholl be distracted. Everybody around you will everybody else around you will be extracted, distracted as well, like you. Well, like you. Youd be going, oh, i would, id be coming over them. I mean, marion, its a its a good point, isnt it . I mean, its going to slow down productivity. Going to slow down productivity. Besides anything else, i think that were, were sort of very much focusing on a worst Case Scenario here. We have all sorts of campaigns around bringing children we have children to work. We have entrepreneurs actively entrepreneurs that actively bnng entrepreneurs that actively bring to work bring their children to work because it has a really positive effect. These little brats, eamonn are going to end up being our next presenters , our next our next presenters, our next Prime Ministers, and they can learn so much by being in a workspace, not suggesting that it becomes the norm, but where we have no alternative live. I definitely think that there are benefits in them , in them coming benefits in them, in them coming in, in more measure than than detriment. Do you have children . Marion i do, and how old are they now . Well mine are older now. Ive got a 24 and a 20 year old. Yeah, and would they have come to work with you in the past . Yeah. When i did my doctorate and i did my phd, both my children used to come into the research lab whilst i was researching at the time. And did your colleagues and how did your colleagues find not find that . Not no, no complaints at all. I think its part of to your think its part of that to your face. I think its about children can learn to problem solve. Children learn from what they see and when they observe. In a workplace how people communicate, negotiate, problem, solve. I think its empowering. Solve. I think its empowering. It really brings up that next generation ready for employment. Amy, i suppose it depends on the parent, right . And how responsible theyre being over that child. If everything falls that child. If everything falls through, choice. Through, theres no choice. They bnng through, theres no choice. They bring child the bring their child into the office. Its thing if they office. Its one thing if they sit at their desk and that sit them at their desk and that child behaved, child is really well behaved, but to into but if they have to pop into a meeting leave their meeting and they leave their colleague set of crayons, colleague with a set of crayons, i thats not fair, it . I mean, thats not fair, is it . Absolutely not. Its definitely not fair. Also, not all children are well behaved. So, you know, maybe your children are well behaved. But, you know, i cant say the same about children. So i think about all children. So i think that, you know, your point, that, you know, to your point, yes, theres bring your child to work day to teach them to, you know, learn to be various ways, whether its, you know, they want to be a presenter or they want to be a presenter or they want to be whatever you do, thats great for them to be exposed time a year. Exposed to that one time a year. But not think its but i do not think its appropriate. And, you know, it appropriate. And, you know, it could be dangerous. A child doesnt about a workplace. Doesnt know about a workplace. You know, theres wires, some peoples workplaces are quite dangerous. I just think its dangerous. So i just think its totally wrong. It doesnt suit totally wrong. It doesnt suit the child. It doesnt suit the parent. It doesnt suit the parents, fellow employees. So it just no i dont see any just theres no i dont see any reason why you need to bring your child to work. And also nowadays many people do work from home. So if you have child care issues, thats always an opfion care issues, thats always an option just to work from home. If you have very important meetings that cant be missed. Nowadays we have zoom. Theres so many other ways to work, you dont to be in the office, dont have to be in the office, and i dont think thats the right place for children for child to tag along with you. But marion sees, you see pluses in this. But marion sees, you see pluses in this. And would there pluses in this. And would there be an age stipulation for you, marion , in this . I mean, is a 13 marion, in this . I mean, is a 13 year old child different than a seven year old child, or is there an ideal age for all of this and generally will it become law at some stage . I dont. I think were really the reality is were talking aboutin the reality is were talking about in extreme cases where parents are really struggling with child care. We know its a huge problem. 66 of parents are struggling with child care in school holidays, and a quarter of a million women leave the workforce each year because they struggle to balance work and child care. So this is about a pragmatic approach to a problem that most parents are presented with on a daily basis. That most parents are presented with on a daily basis. And so with on a daily basis. And so its i think its got to be looked at from a the type of employment. Clearly, if youre working in Dangerous Health and safety issues and factories, that probably isnt appropriate. And there are other workarounds, but its really just other ways that we can support parents and keep talent in the workforce by being flexible around children coming in to work. Doctor marion month, thank you very much indeed. And amy ansell, always nice to see you. Thank you. Well leave it there. Thank you. Well leave it there. Thank you. Well leave it there. Thank you very much indeed. Yeah. Yeah. Let us know you yeah. Let us know what you think is it dangerous . Is it inappropriate, could be inappropriate, or could there be benefits kids into benefits to bringing kids into the office . Do let us know. The law and two itll be the law and two years time. Do you think . There what do you think . There should creches work. Do should be creches at work. Do you there should be you think there should be creches law . So that creches at work by law . So that people kids in people just put their kids in the creche . Think a different i think thats a different thing. I think thats thats workable thats doable. Workable or thats doable. Probably you know, the probably but its, you know, the trouble is, when we begin to treat seven year olds like adults and thats thats part of the problem. Theres a lot of parents love doing this, talking to kids and treating them as if their opinions are more important than adults around them. And that leads to trouble. And then theres this whole question of, you know, do people not think of the consequences of having children . Thats how its going to change their lives. And these are things youve got to factor in. And if youve got four children, you know whats going to happen if youre ill or theyre ill or whatever, whatever, whatever. But, i suppose you have to live it and, experience it. But have you ever brought your kids into work . No. On no. You just think its not. Not appropriate. Of course its not appropriate. Appropriate. They probably really want to come to work with you. No, no. Come to work with you. No, no. Not loud. Well, do you let us know your views on that one . 732 is the time weve got the sport with paul next. Hello, paul. Paul coyte here. Hello, eamonn. Hello, eamonn. The latest sport. And one of the things yesterday we were talking about usain bolt and we did this lovely thing. This amazing thing . Yeah that we showed in a race between 100 metre race between usain bolt and a greyhound. And a greyhound. Yes. Yes. We asked people who would win and we were able to recreate it and we were able to recreate it and do it. Yes, absolutely. Exactly. Yes, absolutely. Exactly. And the answer was the answer was by a long way was the greyhound by a long way because the world because usain bolt, the world record has 9. 58 record that he has is 9. 58 seconds. The greyhound round. I think it was just a it wasnt like your everyday greyhound. I think this was like a fast greyhound. Not that any greyhounds slow, so that was greyhounds are slow, so that was around five seconds the greyhound. Yeah, it was amazing to see just faster the just how much faster the greyhound was. Just how much faster the gre now 1d was. Just how much faster the gre now today;. Just how much faster the gre now today you want to go now today you want to go again . You go again . Yeah. Yeah. We should we go again usain bolt maybe be a bit tired. But youre track again. Think we again, this i think we go again, this time against jesse owens. Jesse owens, legendary sprint owens, the legendary sprint sprinter , won four medals sprinter, won four gold medals at the 1936 olympics. The hitler olympics, of course, and they hated him. And he of course he did. And he turned away, you know, it it was a great know, and it was it was a Great Success for jesse owens. Know, and it was it was a Great Success forjesse owens. So know, and it was it was a Great Success for jesse owens. So we do have this is the do have this. This is the fastest but i do have fastest time. But i do have a few caveats that i may go through afterwards. Okay. But this would go. This is how things would go. There are we to predict there we are we to predict whos going win. Who do whos going to win. Yeah. Who do you think . Well, think know, dont you. Well, well, i would say well youve got to be quick. Thats a good look thats a good start. Look they usain they started off but then usain is pulling now. So if it is pulling away now. So if it was 30m jesse owens was was probably 30m jesse owens was in this. But there we are. So that was but training would be more advanced. Would be more advanced. Technologies advanced. Yeah. 9 shoes. Good shoes. Shoes. Good shoes. Shoes. Good more advanced. And they must be allowed to take supplements or something that are allowed. You know what you make every point on the money. And the other one, the probably the most important thing is the track because run on because they used to run on ashes. Cinder tracks. Yeah. Do you know when the well, do you know early when the first tracks came in that werent cinder . So came in that werent cinder . So they used to be sort of like, like eamonn says it was ashes. Id say the 1970s. Yeah. Yeah. Youre not off. 68 was youre not far off. 68 was the 68 olympics. So what jesse owens used to do, he owens used to have to do, he would go to the track a would go to the track with a little trowel and dig little gardening trowel and dig a little hole. Because also, the other thing, if youre getting blocks, they never had blocks to fire right . So if you take fire off, right . So if you take seconds off of all those things and fact that jesse owens and the fact that jesse owens neven and the fact that jesse owens never, had blocks, the never, never had blocks, had the cinder track , you know, you talk cinder track, you know, you talk about the shoes and you talk about the shoes and you talk about everything that they used to eat. I think it would have worked that jesse owens would have beaten the greyhound, would have beaten the greyhound, would have 44 seconds. Have run it in about 44 seconds. But cant really but difference, you cant really compare. Times compare. But if it was times thats they would have come. So, it was the Irish Grand National two days ago, and paul and were on the phone with and i were on the phone with Irish Grand National. Good underway at 5 and i phoned underway at 5 pm. And i phoned him i said, irish him and i said, the irish nationals on and we went through some of the horses or whatever it and talked about it, and it is and talked about it, and paul good, good. Im paul said, okay, good, good. Im off im going a off because im going to put a bet and tell bet down. And you did tell people what happened. People what happened. Id bet on the 450 at chepstow because because i picked out the name of the horse i like. I like. The racecourse is fairy house. Its fairy house in ireland and then ive gone for ill go. Right. Okay, well, ill quickly put the bet on now because the horse is the race is about to start, and being the tipster that i am, i went with something around with name that that i am, i went with something aroun and with name that that i am, i went with something aroun and i with name that that i am, i went with something aroun and i thought, name that that i am, i went with something aroun and i thought, great, that i like and i thought, great, ill have and im watching ill have that. And im watching the thinking, wheres the race. Im thinking, wheres the race. Im thinking, wheres the horse isnt the horse . The horse isnt there. Wrong, wrong there. Its the wrong, wrong bet on damn race. And by on the wrong damn race. And by the didnt get anywhere the way, he didnt get anywhere in bet on. In the race that id bet on. However, a punter on one but however, a punter on one of the biggest payouts ever from how much . How his bet . How much . Right. His bet . Right. Right. Ill go through so its ill go through it. So its the at the easter the opening day at the easter festival fairyhouse . Yeah, festival at fairyhouse . Yeah, he had a £17. 50 each bet on had a £17. 50 each way bet on three races. Oh, thats a big factor, isnt it . So yeah, three races. Three races and it would. And each one would then run to three winners had to have three winners had had to have three winners. The actual stake winners. So the actual stake because it was each way was £35. So you know, it a it was a so you know, it was a it was a hefty pay. You know a lot of hefty pay. You know a lot of people only have £1. 35. So the first had don charlotte, first race he had don charlotte, which was 9 to 1 horse comes in. Well done. So hes on the way. Well done. So hes on the way. Second race ardara ru 33 to 1 rank outsider. Second race ardara ru 33 to 1 rank outsider. Boom comes in. So its down to the last one. Sweating on all the 430. Sweating on all the 430. Now hes probably thinking theres no chance that this is going to come in for 30. Hes got mousy brown 50 to 1. So after the final finish youve got Willie Mullins whos the greatest trainer in the world at the moment. Hes horse olympic man. Its over the first its over the last hurdle. And you think its going to walk it. And then mousy brown starts coming. Its like guy must be going its like the guy must be going crazy. And then mousy brown wins at 50 to 1. Do you know how much this guy won . No. £285,000 from this guy won . No. £285,000 from from a £37 stake. Wow. You know, on him hes wow. You know, on him hes very lucky because the 415 youre talking about the 430, the 415. Yeah. Was delayed by eight minutes because one of the horses got. Loose and decided to horses got. Loose and decided to run around the course. Yes. Nobody could get it off. Yeah. Goodness me. Yeah. Goodness me. Yeah. Goodness me. Yeah. I think you had £5 that the horse would be the horse the race would be delayed well. A 50 to so delayed as well. A 50 to 1. So hes i mean hes done amazingly well but the thing is well man. But the thing is though, we have say that though, we have to say that whenever you bets like that, whenever you see bets like that, people this money, whenever you see bets like that, peoquch this money, whenever you see bets like that, peoquch money this money, whenever you see bets like that, peoquch money d0|is money, whenever you see bets like that, peoquch money d0|is m my father always said me, my father always said to me, you never a poor bookmaker. So. Absolutely right. Absolutely right. Right. You absolutely right. See you again. Absolutely right. See you agaivery much indeed. You very much indeed. Still to come. Claire im still to come. Claire muldoon and Scarlett Mccgwire. Well whats well be back to see whats making news today. Thats next. Youve been so good getting in touch. We items have been discussing. About ten minutes ago, had a debate about, ago, we had a debate about, bringing your children to school, and i was of the opinion id rather bring my pet not to school, to work, to work . Yeah, school, to work, to work . Yeah, which feels like school, caroline says, why is that . People these days have to make excuses to make their life eafien excuses to make their life easier. How did we manage in the past without this woke society . Past without this woke society . See, david says utter rubbish. Children learn at home children should learn at home from at from parents, informally at school and she says you only have to see how children behave in restaurants, shops etc. To know this would not work. I could think of nothing worse. Sandra. No way. I wouldnt want my own children, never mind anyone elses sprogs yeah, this woman is deluded. Yeah, michael makes a good point saying i was a miner for 23 years. How would i have worked with me taking my children to work . Yeah, i think it children to work . Yeah, i think h depend children to work . Yeah, i think it depend on what . What it does depend on what . What jobs you do. Lee is a taxi driver. He has seven children and he says he manages it. It doesnt depend on what job you theres quite clearly no you do. Theres quite clearly no way be way that any child should be brought workplace. Brought into the workplace. End off. I agree with end off end off. I agree with you. Totally agree. End off end off. I agree with you buttally agree. End off end off. I agree with youbut you agree. End off end off. I agree with you but you know. End off end off. I agree with you but you know what . But you know what . But you know what . Itll be law within two years. Be a protected right . Be a protected right . Yeah, itll a protected right. Yeah, but people yeah, but most people work from anyway, so theres from home now anyway, so theres a moot point. Yeah. Its got people to treat children like adults. That really annoys me. That really annoys me. Yes i know, yeah i agree. Yes i know, yeah i agree. Well i when my child care fell fell down i mean i, i, i would take my son i mean i was a single know i had go single mum you know i had to go to so very , very rarely i to work so very, very rarely i took my son into the office and was he well behaved . He was he was he well behaved . He was he was wonderfully behaved. And your colleagues didnt mind . But also it was it was. No. But also it was it was. No. But also it was it was. Well, theyre not going to tell you the mind, do they. They were behind your they were all behind your back didnt i mean i, i back but i didnt i mean i, i think you only do it in a complete crisis. Yeah. And in complete crisis. Yeah. And in those days you couldnt just work from home. Oh, i agree with you, scarlett. I agree with you, scarlett, lets talk about this teacher whos 30 years of age muslim. He told pupils islam was going to take over and branded western girls lunatics , the western girls lunatics, the result is hes been banned from teaching, what . What do you think about this . Think about this . Yeah. Yeah. I mean, obviously it was absolutely right that he should be banned from teaching. I mean, for a start, what he was saying to young women, was, was absolutely appalling. I mean, the and that he shouldnt he shouldnt be allowed back. I mean i but i, i think that that i mean im not quite sure why its such a big deal. I mean, its such a big deal. I mean, its right. Its absolutely right. What happened. But actually there are worse things going on. I mean, you know, there are there are teachers abusing pupils, quite, quite, quite often. Who also should be banned. I mean, i think just somebody who goes into school and says dreadful things, but i mean, i remember, you know, my headmaster, i remember obviously many, many years ago said, you know, the only thing the Labour Government has done is to legalise sodomy , which is, you legalise sodomy, which is, you know, appalling for any of the, the young gay people who were at that school, i mean, and some of them turned out to be gay. I mean, i think theres a theres a lot of stuff. I mean, i just, i dont quite understand why this is a top story, when quite rightly, you cant say those things. I think the reason this is a story is because of whats happenedin story is because of whats happened in batley grammar and the fact that the head teacher, the fact that the head teacher, the teacher, the religious the teacher, yes, the religious studies is still, studies teacher, there is still, you know, had no support at all for the past two years, since march 2021, when he dared to show the cartoon of the Charlie Hebdo cartoon. Thats why i think this story is, is in the news. Well, look what happened to that teacher was was appalling, is appalling appalling. He had he had no support from the school. He had no support from the unions. And hes still in the unions. And hes still in hiding. Yes. As is his family. As is his family. And also the complaints came from outside the school. The whole thing was, was it was got up and it was terrible. Right. But but actually, i mean, you this, this whole thing about, you know, muslims are dangerous is wrong. I mean , i mean is wrong. I mean, i mean a friend. I dont think thats why he was sacked. No, no, he wasnt. He purchased nichi hodgson. He why are you saying that he said, why are you saying that muslims all dangerous and muslims are all dangerous and people that cant people are saying that i cant understand why is such a understand why this is such a big when actually, you big deal when actually, you know, a friend, a muslim friend of mine whose children are at a muslim school, and he was really proud that his his girls came back and said, were doing an assembly about pride. So actually , you know, so actually, you know, theres lots and lots of ways besides, you know, why youre saying that, scarlett . Because this guy came back and he said , these girls, he and he said, these girls, he said, western girls are lunatics. Yeah. No, its not what you want them to be bringing back, right . Right. Its absolute right that hes banned. Of course, you cant things like that, right . Right. Right . Well,. Right . Well, were making it a well, were not making it a general on muslims. General attack on muslims. Exactly. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly. It a general youre making it a general attack muslims. Attack on muslims. What im saying is, is im. What im saying is, is i just dont understand hand why this is such an important story. Well i think its an important story. There is a nutcase running, you know, i think classroom. What im trying to say is there are lots of nut cases who are teachers in schools , not i are teachers in schools, not i mean, you know, there are a tiny, tiny minority. Me, but tiny, tiny minority. Me, but actually that , that that its actually that, that that its not i mean, of course he should be banned. Of course she be banned. Of course she shouldnt be saying things like that. But then there needs to be and there has been an investigation here, investigation done here, but there needs questions there needs to be questions asked about man was asked about why this man was such views was even in such extreme views was even in the profession in the the teaching profession in the first why able to first place. Why was he able to mould with these mould young minds with these sorts mould young minds with these sonwith views . Yeah. When it with views . Yeah. When it wasnt put for critical wasnt put up for critical analysis, was his view. Analysis, this was his view. Unlike the batley grammar teacher who produced a picture of charlie of the Charlie Hebdo and that was a view he had that in his class for two years. He already taught it before and then all of a sudden it was a racial crime, hate crime. Can i tell you what should be a crime . Selling protein, a crime . Selling protein, yoghurt in any, anywhere . Why . Why . Why . Im telling you, love, right . Youre old enough to remember what ordinary yoghurt used to be like, right . Thin, slim , like, right . Thin, slim, strawberry flavoured mandarin flavour. You can still get that. You can still get that. You can still get that. Well, well, every time i send anybody out here and say , get me anybody out here and say, get me a, get me a yoghurt, i come back with this rubbish with it. Wheres my spoon gone to your spoons. Here. Right, but basically so scarlet, this sort of yoghurt, which is thick, thick , thick. Which is thick, thick, thick. Its like butter eating butter or whatever it is. Its hideous. And i specifically say to the youngsters , get me ordinary youngsters, get me ordinary yoghurt, get me Old Fashioned yoghurt, get me Old Fashioned yoghurt, get me thin yoghurt. What . Theyve got you eamonn. Theyre trying to build you up. Is 25g worth of protein in that, that you didnt need to get that. Okay . These young people are frightened of you. They probably think, oh my goodness me, get me a yoghurt Eamonn Holmes Ronnie Ronnie yoghurt. But they come back with that. But they come back with that. Okay. You want ill go now and get you one. Okay. But im surprised its not me sick, its usually your greggs. Its under that table. Thats just fantasy. Oh no, thats just fantasy. Oh no, thats just fantasy. It really from you, ali . Is it really from you, ali . Is it really from you, ali . Want to back me up on me . Fruit always. No. Isnt it . And he shares it. You know, that according you know, that was according to you that or to psychologists. You do that or you blinked. Youre telling a lie you just did that. Lie and you just did that. No, no. No, no. Im sure, eamonn, that nobody will dare give you anything but a runny yoghurt in future. Its impossible to get. Its not honestly. You call into not honestly. You call into petrol stations and you say, you know, theres all these shops. You think ill get a yoghurt they dont have. Its very fashionable now. Its very fashionable now. The yoghurt. The greek yoghurt. The greek yoghurt. Thats woke. Yoghurt. Thats gone. Woke. Oh , they have. Oh my god, they have. Theres no choice if theres a choice available at run a yoghurt. Thick horrible butter like yoghurt. You dont get a choice. You dont get a choice. You dont get a choice. Why does anybody even like them . I actually do love yoghurt. I actually do love yoghurt. Do you love that honey stuff . Do you love that honey stuff . I do, sorry. I do, sorry. You love scarlet. Well over the weekend i had runny yoghurt. I dont know where your problem is. Well, im telling you, well have to find you some in my life. Its a problem. I sit here every day. Nobody can get greggs i yeah. Yeah. Oh, were all supposed to feel sorry for him running like thick. Youre. Youre probably best off yoghurt. Off sticking greek yoghurt. With granola and honey yeah, with granola and honey and fruit during it. And fresh fruit during it. Im with you. Im with you. Lets talk about. Lets talk lets talk about. Lets talk about houses. Scarlett, right. So what . Why is labour getting involved in this . In a minute, please. Well but we have a housing crisis. You do not have enough houses to live in. Absolutely agree. Absolutely agree. Weve been promised for the last 14 years of this government that houses built and we that houses will be built and we dont get. And the great reason why theyre not being built is planning regulations. Labour change how will labour change things . Going to make it much theyre going to make it much easier to build, right. More difficult to object and more difficult to object and more difficult object. And more difficult to object. Know how theyre and you know how theyre doing that. Theyre going into seats want. More seats that people want. The more housing in. Its completely political. Well, well good. But yeah but shouldnt you. Its quite disingenuous i think. Yeah. Think. Yeah. Well you cant get a bloomin high size. What youre saying is because of way the model of the buy of the way the model of the buy to is wrong, they need to to lets is wrong, they need to attack model. Attack that model. But but what youre no, but but but what youre saying buy lets, saying not only the buy to lets, but buy is that but the right to buy is that labour actually going the labour is actually going to the places there houses, places where there are houses, where housing crisis where theres a housing crisis and saying were going to build more and what cant more housing and what they cant use coming from it. Use this money coming from it. The planning coming wheres the planning coming from . Not. The from . They will not. The levelling worked. Levelling up is not worked. I my scarlett, is i know my worry, scarlett, is that all talk and no that itll be all talk and no action. Yeah, will action. Yeah, but it will be. Yeah, but it will be. Shall see. We shall see. We shall see. I hope they get somewhere. I hope they get somewhere. Think really, and i think its really, really important. I think really and i think its really important social important to build social housing well. Important to build social h0lsog well. Important to build social h0lso do well. Important to build social h0lso do i,nell. Important to build social h0lso do i, iall. Important to build social h0lso do i, i actually think so do i, i actually think thats what we should be building. Thats what should doing. W absolutely. We should. Problem is the problem of right to buy is the money back into social money didnt go back into social housing. Correct. Thanks very much indeed. Scarlett theyre thanks very much indeed.

Club in the country, although that is financially. And adam that is financially. And adam peaty is back and hes olympics ready. Ready. Good morning. Whilst theres quite a bit of rain across northern parts today, its better news further south if its drier and brighter weather youre after, ill have the details shortly. Our top story this morning. Prime minister is demanding answers from israel after seven aid workers, including three british nationals, were killed by an israeli missile strike. Well, james henderson, who was 33, and john chapman, who were 57, both of whom are believed to have served in the royal marines, have been named alongside james kirby, a former Army Rifleman and sniper marksman. Those are the three britons who have died. Israel, now facing questions about how this happened as the World Charity kitchen had altered the alerted even the idf to the route they were travelling , and marked its cars travelling, and marked its cars with their logo on the roof , all with their logo on the roof, all to no avail. Well, the idf chief of staff, hirsi ali, has issued an apology for the strike, adding that it was a result of misidentified action which was being investigated and learned from. Well, joining us now is our home and security editor, mark white. Good to see you this morning, mark. And now very serious questions about this tragedy where seven people were killed. Where seven people were killed. Yes. And its extremely difficult for israel because key allies of israel , america, the allies of israel, america, the us, australia and others have come out and are clearly very critical of the way in which this operation unfolded in which three of these vehicles in that aid convoy were struck. With this devastating loss of lives , this devastating loss of lives, including those three british nationals. And the thing we can say about the three british nationals is they were all experienced ex servicemen. You will get , of course, with will get, of course, with charities working in a very complicated war zone like gaza, ex Service Personnel who brought in to help advise those charities on the safest routes to a destination , just to try to to a destination, just to try to keep people safe and world central kitchen said that they were absolutely doing that. They had a Good Relationship with israel every journey that they made, they liaised with the Israeli Military to clear an area. They would go into what was called de conflicted zones that would be carefully worked out to ensure that they werent targeted, but something very tragically went wrong. The tragically went wrong. The Israeli Government and the military are pretty much put their hands up to this. They come out and acknowledged it was a terrible mistake. But thats not going to stop the very awkward questions now for israel and the pressure that will mount on israel. There has been a lot of concern about the aid situation in gaza for months now, with lots of arguments and fallouts between israel and the Un Aid Agency in gaza. Israel had been encouraging these other charities and ngos to come in and to provide humanitarian support to the people of gaza. Well, uk was one of those charities who answered that call. And of course, now its ended in tragedy. And thats mean for week and a number of other charities. They have suspended operations until they can get a more robust system in place. And what do you think will happen diplomatically next . Mark well, diplomatically, the fallout is ongoing. We had, for instance , the israeli ambassador instance, the israeli ambassador to the uk being called in to the Foreign Office yesterday. That Foreign Office yesterday. That hasnt happened for some 12 years. The us president , joe biden, has made some very robust and angry comments about what went on, what happened and unfolded on monday night. So clearly, this is very difficult for israel at a time when israel was really starting to get mounting pressure from its closest allies. Anyway, about the need to implement a more sustainable ceasefire. Thus far, its always been, of course , you its always been, of course, you need a ceasefire thats going to work, and thats still very publicly what britain and the us are saying. But they are are saying. But they are pressure behind the scenes, pressuring israel to try to come up with a solution that is more longer lasting, that can bring some kind of an end to this bloody conflict and hopefully result in the release of the 150 or so hostages who are still being held. Mark, thank you very much indeed. Well leave it there. Indeed. Well leave it there. Time 8 06 oclock on bringing your children to work, which weve been talking about this morning , stephen says, of course morning, stephen says, of course its not appropriate to do so. Its just not fair for your work colleagues. Why should they have to be looking after your kids while you are working . They have their own work to do and to say, as most parents do, my children will be happy sit a desk will be happy to sit at a desk and their colouring. A reader and do their colouring. A reader book just true and richard book just isnt true and richard says, remember when we had pounds, and pence . Says, remember when we had pound not and pence . Says, remember when we had pound not rememberi pence . Says, remember when we had pound not remember this, ce . Says, remember when we had pound not remember this, but youll not remember this, but its of up until 1970. Its sort of up until 1970. And so heres happened. You got so heres what happened. You got 240 sweets for a pound from the penny counter. Wow. And mum penny counter. Wow. And mum could afford to stay at home. Then decimalisation came and only 100 sweets for a pound , and only 100 sweets for a pound, and mum could no longer afford to stay at home. That about sums it up, richard. Thats inflation for you, so keep those comments coming in. I dont think any of you are huge fans of bringing children into the workplace. A children into the workplace. A muslim teacher in birmingham has been sacked for undermining fundamental British Values by teaching regulation, agency , it teaching regulation, agency, it was their professional Misconduct Panel. Well, gb news West Midlands reporter jack carson joins us now. And lots of questions, now. And lots of questions, jack, about why this teacher was even teaching in the first place. If he had such extreme views. Views. Yeah, definitely. I mean , yeah, definitely. I mean, this has been a decision made by the panel of the Teaching Regulation Agency. Theyve considered evidence that was put forward by an internal investigation, initially by the Harborne Academy here. The teacher, aqib khan, whos a 30 year old man teacher of english at the academy here, he was put through an internal investigation after a after a fellow member of staff actually put concerns about his conduct and particularly around the students on their safeguarding portal that internal investigation then led, of course to these recommendations to the teaching regulations agency, whose panel have decided that he will receive an indefinite ban from teaching. I indefinite ban from teaching. I mean, some of the things, of course, that this panel heard mr raqib to have said in particularly the are striking words to the effect of having a baby over 30 was worse than cousin marriage, and that the child will most likely have disabilities and also including words to the effect of calling westernised girls lunatics. Now, westernised girls lunatics. Now, westernised girls lunatics. Now, we have approached the academy for comment, but have not received anything thus far. But we know he was a teacher here from december 20th march last yean from december 20th march last year, when he was of course sacked after those internal investigations and the effect of an impact of that conduct, of course was found. And so the comments really, you have to ask wonder how within those two year penod wonder how within those two year period that of course, these comments were being assessed over from 2021 to 2023, why maybe nothing was done sooner. Certainly, questions to answer. There other examples of what mr ukip the panel heard him to have done, including sending a series of professionally unacceptable messages on Microsoft Teams , messages on Microsoft Teams, that is, that teams chat included pupils , including one included pupils, including one of a topless picture of himself flexing as he tried to talk to them about how to get girls. Them about how to get girls. Jack, thank you very much and let us know your views on that story. Vaiews gbnews. Uk. Com now vaiews gbnews. Uk. Com now royal mail is investigating problems with new barcoded stamps. Its after a gb news investigation found that britons are being charged £5 for their post. Well, the senders insist they bought the stamps from a reputable source , but they are reputable source, but they are still facing the penalty. Royal mail has committed to investigating the issue after a meeting with the post Office Minister this week. Well, joining us now is our Digital Finance reporter, jess sheldon. Really good to see you this morning, jess. So whats going on here . Well its all a little bit of a mystery. So its good that royal mail will be investigating this, a investigation by gb news earlier this year found that people were buying stamps from reputable places. So post office shops and post offices and small supermarkets. Royal mail was then sending them a note, charging them £5 to get their letter out. So it looks as though people were buying counterfeit stamps. At least thats whats whats being investigated , and that is being investigated, and that is whats being investigated. And weve heard examples from people across the uk who have been affected, theres particular concern for Vulnerable People who are having to go to the delivery office. You can you can pay the charge online, but thats not for everyone, Small Business everyone, and Small Business owners have sent owners as well, who have sent out post thinking theyve sent it with genuine stamp and then it with a genuine stamp and then being told its counterfeit. Well, of course you wouldnt think anything else, would you . I jess, this is on the i mean, jess, this is on the front page of the telegraph. This morning, but this actually front page of the telegraph. Thi started ng, but this actually front page of the telegraph. Thi started with ut this actually front page of the telegraph. Thi started with a this actually front page of the telegraph. Thi started with a gbs actually front page of the telegraph. Thi started with a gb newsally front page of the telegraph. Thi started with a gb news iny all started with a gb news in vestigation, didnt it . How did this begin . This all begin . It all began when gb well, it all began when gb news readers and viewers wrote in team, weve got in to our money team, weve got an email money at an email address money at gb news , so we investigated. We news. Uk, so we investigated. We found some look fake, you found some which look fake, you know, theyre entirely flat when you look at the barcodes rather than slightly bumpy. But weve also heard examples from people who say that one stamp in the book has been found counterfeit, but others have got through totally fine without a hitch. Is it quite difficult to tell by the eye that you could have a counterfeit stamp . Is it almost impossible, or is there, is there usually a sign that something could be awry . I think some some when , you i think some some when, you know, look slightly different to what counterfeit stamps, but what our counterfeit stamps, but then some in the book are being deemed counterfeit when others arent. So its all a little bit of a mystery, really. So whats going to happen next, do you think . Well, royal mail will investigate. I think its investigate. And i think its really important they really important that they explain has happened, explain what has happened, obviously theres concern explain what has happened, obviotsendingzs concern explain what has happened, obviotsending post concern explain what has happened, obviot sending post if ncern explain what has happened, obviot sending post if you n explain what has happened, obviot sending post if you think about sending post if you think that the stamps youre buying at a reputable place counterfeit a reputable place is counterfeit. The advice at the moment,. But, the advice at the moment, i say , you know, go to the i would say, you know, go to the post counter and make post Office Counter and make sure you get a receipt if youre buying stamps and keep the paperwork , i think always paperwork, i think is always a good you can complain to good idea. You can complain to royal mail if youre affected. And also theres trading standards and citizens advice. Yeah. And you say i suppose and as you say i suppose check your stamps well if it check your stamps as well if it looks as though it could be counterfeit, keep receipt counterfeit, keep your receipt and hopefully can get and hopefully you can get a refund. Thanks so jess. Refund. Thanks so much, jess. Really to you this really good to see you this morning. Now we have had a response they response from royal mail. They say a customer reports to say when a customer reports to us that they have bought a stamp from a retailer that subsequently found to be counterfeit, we will always look into the circumstances of that case. Also work closely with case. We also work closely with retailers and Law Enforcement agencies actively seek the agencies and actively seek the prosecution of those who produce counterfeit stamps. We reaffirmed that policy to the minister, kevin hollinrake, today , the post office, saying today, the post office, saying that the implication of such an allegation is that one of our postmasters or a member of their staff, has obtained fake stamps and has chosen to sell them to customers. This is why we insist any customer who thinks they may have purchased a fake stamp from a post office must produced an itemised receipt, so that this can be looked into further. Can be looked into further. Check your stamps now at 8 40, lets take a look at some other stories coming into the newsroom this morning.

Look, were talking about holidays now and were talking about , you know, unruly people about, you know, unruly people when youre on holiday and specifically the attentions turning to brits because in tenerife, theyve hit out at british tourists demanding that they would like Higher Quality people than brits following, following their island. And thats all to do with drunken behaviour riding outside stag parties, hand parties, all the sort of things. Yeah, not behaving themselves well in response , holidaymakers well in response, holidaymakers from the uk are now threatening to boycott tenerife over the response from angry locals. So were asking this morning are british tourists behaving badly on holiday . And if they are, what should be done . Well here with her view, weve got the broadcaster, paula london, and we have the etiquette expert liz brewer. Liz brits have a bad name, well deserved or not. Eamonn. Well, theres always an element of bad behaviour from certain brits and in tenerife those are the ones that are being targeted at the moment, you cant complain really against the people in tenerife. The fact that theyre doing airbnb or theyre hiring out caravans , etc. So a lot of what caravans, etc. So a lot of what theyre complaining about is people who object to the fact that they go there. Apparently some brits and they behave badly, they drink booze, they get drunk , they dont appreciate get drunk, they dont appreciate the culture of the whole place. And in actual fact, it gives us a bit of a bad reputation. However, i do agree that you know, it is a huge source of income for the country. Yeah, andifs income for the country. Yeah, and its a local government issue. If the local government could put in some restrictions and control that , then maybe, and control that, then maybe, paula, is it our fault or is it local governments fault on this . I think that they should be more grateful. Basically, the brits put tenerife on the map. Brits put tenerife on the map. People have been visiting there since the 1890s, particularly british people. And then from the 1980s, a hell of a lot of people travelled there, mainly british people, because flying was for everyone then and then the Package Holidays were introduced and a lot of 18 30 introduced and a lot of 18 to 30 holidays. To remember holidays. Youve got to remember a these people going to a lot of these people going to tenerife. Its their first time travelling without their travelling abroad without their parents. Theyre not going to be twiddling their thumbs, theyre going shots, going to be drinking shots, theyre having theyre going to be having a laugh. If they didnt want laugh. And if they didnt want these types people there, these types of people there, they have so many they shouldnt have so many package to Package Holidays going to tenerife. I im just tenerife. And as i say, im just very unhappy so many people very unhappy with so many people vilifying brits, but they vilifying the brits, but they really happy the british really happy to take the british might vilify the brits herself. Im not saying you do, but you know, if we all ended up, you know, if we all ended up, you in some sort of villa you know, in some sort of villa or hotel and there or apartment or hotel and there was large drunken was a large drunken gang dominated in the area, none of us would be happy. If they, you know, if well, if they, you know, if they wanted to attract more french people, because at the moment people are brits, moment most people are brits, then spanish, then its then its the spanish, then its then its the spanish, then its the its the german, then its the french, then the nordic french, and then its the nordic people. Theyre also people. But theyre also complaining germans. Complaining about the germans. So its just us. No its so its not just us. No its not, its no. Ive heard the canary quite snobby not, its no. Ive heard the carwell. Quite snobby not, its no. Ive heard the carwell. They quite snobby not, its no. Ive heard the carwell. They dont|uite snobby not, its no. Ive heard the carwell. They dont evensnobby not, its no. Ive heard the carwell. They dont even like by as well. They dont even like the spanish. As well. They dont even like the itsinish. As well. They dont even like the its not]. As well. They dont even like the its not just the brits. Its not just the brits. Its not just the brits. Its, its. And its not just tenerife. Its a problem. Look at benidorm and older peoples. They behave better parties and the stag parties that go to prague or whatever. Its just the fact that. And its not just young people in tenerife , its young people in tenerife, its a lot of them are the older people and they go there because its cheap. Cheap beer, cheap food, and they dont appreciate the culture of the place. Well, i always say that youre going to always say that youre going to a country for a holiday. You really need to appreciate their customs and how they behave. And indeed learn a little bit of the language so you can have a conversation. Conversation. Liz, you were talking about restrictions earlier. Sorry to interrupt you. You were talking about restrictions. Do you think that might make things better . That might make things better . Well, its a local government problem and they need to do it in exactly the same way as theyve done it in benidorm. Exactly the same way as theyve doneitin exactly the same way as theyve done it in other countries. In europe. You put in restrictions, you tourists from every you welcome tourists from every level and you provide the facilities so that maybe the upper end of the market can go and appreciate it. Youve got places now, even as far as where as jamaica and, let me think where else where youve got youve got gated communities. So youve got gated communities. So youve got gated communities. So youve got but the locals are in shantytowns towns and, and the problem is with place like tenerife, they have there have been a huge amount of people buying up flats and properties in order to do airbnb, and therefore the locals are complaining because they cant get onto the property ladder. But what youve got to do is if you want to change that culture, then the local government have got to do something about it, and got to actually make and theyve got to actually make certain they limit the certain that they they limit the amount of, of airbnb that they. Amount of, of airbnb that they. Lets hear from paula. Lets hear from paula. Yeah. Well i think its i just think little bit of brass just think a little bit of brass neck there saying want to neck there saying they want to have people. I mean have cultured people. I mean its not ancient greece. Theres not to see. I dont not too much to see. I dont think theres very cheap, think theres just very cheap, dnnks think theres just very cheap, drinks food. And because drinks and food. And because its near africa, the weathers better. Much likely better. Youre much more likely to a suntan there. Thats to get a suntan there. Thats what a lot people care about. What a lot of people care about. I going to mainland spain, i think going to mainland spain, people being people would object to being being they dont have being told that they dont have a culture. They dont really. Well, they dont really. Well, they dont really. Mean, i went once , there i mean, i went once, there isnt a lot to do there. I call it ten hag greece. I didnt like it. I didnt like it 2 or days. I dont really want to do a lot on my holidays anyway. I mean, ijust like lot on my holidays anyway. I mean, i just like to drink i mean, ijust like to drink and read, but i like to lie by the pool. But i dont want too many rowdy people around. But if i dont want to be in a rowdy place, i dont go to place, i just dont go to tenerife. And if they want to get classy people, theyll get tight theyll go there tight people. Theyll go there because can fly there with because you can fly there with a partner pay £325 for partner and pay £325 for a flight in star hotel. Flight in a four star hotel. These people will be mean. They wont out spending wont be going out spending money anywhere in europe. Can no. You can no. Not anywhere. Not anywhere. You can. They cater for yes you can. They cater for everyone. What theyre trying to say the moment in say is at the moment in tenerife, the of very tenerife, the culture of very cheap ms3 is overrunning the cheap and ms3 is overrunning the sort call sort of the what you call classy, what call a sort of classy, what i call a sort of a better quality hotel. And i think youll find that the only way to change that is for them to allow for the upper end of the market to actually be be catered for. And as i said, restrict the Airbnb Properties and not allow people to buy five. Well, they are charging finding people £2,000 now or ,2,000 that dont let out their properties, which ,2,000 that dont let out their propertie agree ch ,2,000 that dont let out their propertie agree with. Actually agree with. Theyre also fining and theyre also fining people ,25,000. Unbelievable if youre involved in a party thats causing a lot of noise , i thats causing a lot of noise, i mean, very few people, if any, will have that money to pay a fine there, and that i can understand. But it is those sort of stag parties and hen parties that encourage that type of behaviour. Well, we put them on the map, we put them on the map. Weve made tenerife a lot of money well over the years. Well over the years. Tenerife, it has been a stopping point for people flying to wherever. And to south africa or wherever. And there some lovely parts of there are some lovely parts of tenerife. Paula, i wouldnt criticise that. Paula, how do you think lizs suggesting there that tenerife needs to attract a Higher Quality . Have no chance. Quality . Have no chance. How would you do that . Pr the best pr the world will never. Youll never be able to say guess what . Tenerife is classy now. Never. As i say from the 18905, now. Never. As i say from the 1890s, brits have been going there. I mean what how classy. People not going to go to people are not going to go to tenerife if i say they may do just to save money, but you know, you want someone know, you dont want someone going a bar and nursing going to a bar and nursing a glass of red wine all night, demanding entertainment, at demanding live entertainment, at least brits spend money. Least the brits spend money. They abroad. They they are generous abroad. They love a drink. Love a love a drink. Thank you. They love a drink. Okay, liz, thank you much okay, liz, thank you very much indeed. So will take it. Indeed. So we will take it. Neither of you two are going there summer then. Neither of you two are going the though ummer then. Neither of you two are going the though ui am er then. Neither of you two are going the though ui am definitely neither of you two are going the though ulam definitely not. Though i am definitely not. Though i am definitely not. Im going there. Ive got friends i enjoy going friends there and i enjoy going to ive only been to tenerife. Ive only been there three times and as i said, it to change. Okay well, it was to change. Okay well, actually plane, not change. Good guys. Good guys. Good guys. Thank you both very much indeed. Happy holidays. Thank you. Weve got the sport you. And weve got the sport next paul. With that right after this short break, please a load of premier league games last night, and theyre going to be completed tonight. Tell us more, paul. We have arsenal versus luton town. Cant see anything more than an arsenal win, can you . Well, the thing about luton is again they just lost narrowly at the weekend. And theres so many. They lose so many games by just one goal and otherwise they would be theyd be sailing up top four or something a feeling itll be more than one tonight. But well see. Arsenal, brentford play brighton, Manchester City against aston villa. Obviously Manchester City need win. Keep the pressure need to win. Keep the pressure up on the top there. Liverpool at the top aston villa also going for top four. Yeah i mean i think villas very interesting because you know a win cements their place in the top four. And truly. In the top four. Well and truly. Thing is it looks but the thing is it looks like the top five should get Champions League football. So that brings spurs into whether its aston villa. But its spurs and aston villa. But that all depends on what goes on in europe because its you know, you get an extra an extra place that goes to a country that does better in europe. So its either germany england. At germany or england. At the moment it like england. So moment it looks like england. So thats we are at the thats where we are at the moment. Should be moment. Okay. So it should be top brighton ill tell you top five brighton ill tell you about brighton. Theyre doing well. Theyre doing well. Well tell you yeah. Well tell you financially doing financially ellie, theyre doing extremely well. Clubs in trouble at see. On all at the moment you see. On all the time weve seen all the thing about financial fair play, profit sustainability clubs profit and sustainability clubs that too much that are spending too much money. Just huge money. Brighton are just a huge success. If anybody can look success. And if anybody can look at and run club the at brighton and run the club the way they do, itll take a way that they do, itll take a lot of beating. If they lot of beating. So only if they had best on the had their best season on the pitch year, but also pitch last year, but also financially as well. And they have made a huge profit. Its the record for the biggest profit ever made by an english team. £122. 8 million. Theyve made in profit. So if you think of players and people are just spending so much money, look at chelsea spent a billion and then youve got a club like brighton and not only succeeding on the pitch, but doing extremely well off it as well. It is incredible. Im doing really, really got really well. I mean, they got £22 compensation for £22 million compensation for graham now this talk Graham Potter and now this talk about de zerbi, their about roberto de zerbi, their manager, talk about manager, they always talk about whether to be the whether hes going to be the next at liverpool. Looks next guy at liverpool. Looks unlikely. Are unlikely. Now Bayern Munich are interested. Its the same interested. So and its the same as managers and players. They leave. But what brighton do very well is that they bring. Its all about great recruitment , so all about great recruitment, so they bring him great players and managers that then in after managers that then come in after that. It never seems to dip. That. So it never seems to dip. So very run. So very well run. Talking about dipping haha. They much greater. They dont get much greater. They dont get much greater. They dont get any greater than adam peaty in swimming. Peaty is the best and adam peaty is the best and hes had a bit of a tough two, 2 or 3 years. You know what it was about the same time he was in strictly come dancing. I dont know whether its actually anything to do with that, but adam peaty, hes won olympic anything to do with that, but adam hes y, hes won olympic anything to do with that, but adam hes oures won olympic anything to do with that, but adam hes our heson olympic anything to do with that, but adam hes our hes the lympic anything to do with that, but adam hes our hes the world c gold.

So in paris, pete so the olympics in paris, pete is going for gold again and fingers crossed for him because he has had a difficult time and ive often said this before with him. Hes the most driven and him. Hes the most driven and without doubt the most driven person. To you. Eamonn the person. Next to you. Eamonn the most driven person ive ever met. Goodness me. Goodness me. And that takes some drive, doesnt it, i noticed on the on the back theres a bit of the back pages theres a bit of a has broken out between pep a row has broken out between Pep Guardiola and roy keane. Roy keane be worried about keane wont be worried about this, keane at the this, but roy keane at the weekend that , erling weekend said that, Erling Haaland, was playing like a division two player, which obviously implied that he hadnt got much, skill or whatever it is. And he was a bit anonymous. It has to be said in the arsenal game on sunday. Yeah. I mean, hes i think his argument was in front of goal. Hes lethal. But build up play and especially on saturday at the weekend he was he looked like a division two player. Its roy keane being roy keane isnt it. He says exactly what he thinks. Whether people are agree the way, its the way guardiola plays him and strategy that plays him and the strategy that he has. As to how haaland is brought into game. I mean theres no into the game. I mean theres no club would turn down club that would turn down haaland of course not haaland and they of course not have that he scored. Have goals that that he scored.

Theyre taking us theyre going to be taking us through papers. Thats next. Scarlet and clare. Going through the. The papers today. And the scarlet. Theres great and the scarlet. Theres great news if youre a billionaire. Because theyre now more of them than ever. So these arent just millionaires. These are billionaires. I know. And taylor swift has joined them. The wonderful taylor swift is now a billionaire. Shes shes sort of at the bottom , of the at the bottom, of the billionaire. Theres, between the billionaires, they have more money than any than the gdp of any country apart from, the us and china. I mean , they are it and china. I mean, they are it is just incredible. And the billionaires go on getting nchen billionaires go on getting richer, which means that the rest of us go on getting poorer. Yeah, they get i did a program on this a few years ago, and the truly rich people like that earn money while theyre sleeping. So if theyve written sleeping. So if theyve written the record or they get musical rights or its usually oil, gas, petrol , you know, Something Like petrol, you know, Something Like that, something gold, minerals coming out of the ground. If somethings coming out of the ground, they can go to sleep. Then go on holidays. Its still coming out of the ground. They dont have to be involved in it. So the guy who owns well, so the guy who owns Louis Vuitton is the richest man person because of person in the world because of that other things. That company or other things. Yeah. And second elon yeah. Because and second is elon musk and third is jeff bezos. Those are the three top earners. And i mean, youre right. I mean they they go on making money and you sort of think the thing about taylor swift is at least shes making money out because shes making money out because shes brilliant and shes a nice person with it. I think about her. She gave all of the lorry drivers on her toun all of the lorry drivers on her tour. I think it was Something Like £10,000 each as a bonus, just for coming along with her. And look, going to see her and look, im going to see her at wembley in the summer. Oh, but shes charging a pretty but also shes charging a pretty penny, is. Penny, so thats all she is. Become billionaire. Become a billionaire. Actually you thats so its actually you thats paid lorry drivers, not paid their lorry drivers, not her. Yeah. So maybe im a nice person. Think its quite. Well, i think its quite. I think its quite disgusting actually money these actually how much money these people making. Absolutely. People are making. Absolutely. I really, do. Theres really, really do. Theres a difference between what need difference between what you need and difference between and theres a difference between what theres what you want and theres a difference what difference between what you actually why or actually have. Why on earth or what would do with that what would you do with that amount money youre right, amount of money youre right, claire, i think could spend claire, i think you could spend it quickly and then youd it quite quickly and then youd run things to spend it on. On. Theres only so many helicopters or houses or swimming can have jets. But, i mean, whats awful but, i mean, whats so awful is bezos, know, is that jeff bezos, you know, who amazon . I mean, hes who owns amazon . I mean, hes the people who work for him. Work for a pittance, zero hour contracts as well, which are shoved in the bin. They, you know, they have problems going to the loo for, for any length of time. I mean, i mean , and of time. I mean, i mean, and they dont recognise unions. I mean, what is what is amazing is, is that hes you call it i mean tight, tight, tight is all he wants is more zillions and zillions and you youd think youd think his workers would , youd think his workers would, would benefit from decent conditions. But they dont. They are appalling. Yeah. You think some of the satisfaction would be having people saying we really enjoy working for you. Yes. But then you get someone like bill gates, i dont know if hes still on the list but he is still on the list. Hes number seven away. Hes number seven away. So much of his wealth, as does his wife claire. Lets talk about free nursery places. The Prime Ministers admitted for admitted that these places for two olds will only work two year olds will only work with 40,000 more staff. So the reason just have smile reason you just have to smile about these is just usual lies of politicians. You know, were of politicians. You know, were going to do this. The very fact we dont have to pay for it because theres no staff. That doesnt matter. Wee bit of a side thats a wee bit of a side issue, isnt it . Yeah. Nurseries are stretched because are already stretched because of the of staff that they the amount of staff that they need per capita to need per ratio per capita to child. The nurseries are already stretched the, stretched because of the, the, the, the rigorous stretches of red tape that they have to go through. I mean, and the videoing of the children and the reporting of the children or anything , reporting of the children or anything, its ridiculous what they have to go through. I would rather they actually looked after instead after the children instead of worrying out worrying about filling out a report for a heart finger or something. Now this is absolutely, unapologetically going absolutely nowhere because, as youve quite rightly said, eamonn the plan that sunak and the conservatives have said to give 30 hours for two year olds free or 15 hours, they need 40,000 extra staff. They dont have that. They dont even have the nursery for infrastructure for to support the 40,000 needed. Now, i know a couple that are going to save £400 a month because of this, and their childs already in a nursery. Thats fine. But you know what thats fine. But you know what else is happening . Their Mortgage Rate is ending. So they need to put the they change their mortgage. That £400 is going to have to be paid into the mortgage. Yeah. Its taking money somewhere and move money from somewhere and move it to else. And its under to someone else. And its under the optic. Its under the optic that the conservatives and this government are there to help families. Well im sorry. Wake up. Smell the coffee, lads. It aint happening. And its not going work. Going to work. The problem is, is because the problem is, is this government i mean it, you used to say, you know, you campaign in poetry, govern campaign in poetry, you govern in they govern in in prose, they govern in headunes. I in prose, they govern in headlines. I mean, thats all headlines. I mean, thats all they do is they make announcements and nothing happens. And yet some people are going gain, but many, many going to gain, but many, many more people cannot get their children into nurseries, desperate to go back to work. The and then nursery workers. I mean, who who should be you know, theyre bringing up the next generation and theyre, theyre paid the minimum wage. I mean, its terrible, actually. Its really, really difficult. Its really, really difficult. It is difficult. Its very difficult doing our job as well when we sit here and they say, and of course, what were doing, we are carving National Insurance wherever. And then you realise , wait a minute. You realise, wait a minute. You announced that two years ago when you got big headlines. Yeah. There and then it doesnt happen for another two years. Then then you then you do it again, then you take bubble it. Take double bubble for it. Another credit for it and another bit of credit for it and it just goes on. And that is the way country is governed. Way this country is governed. And im really concerned and im not really concerned singling out, singling out the conservative party, though. Conservative party, though. Theyre, theyre theyre in charge. Theyre sitting in the hot seat. But the next lot will do it as well. Yeah, ill do it. Whoever comes in next, weve already seen theyve starting to do it with sunaks announcement that hes going to be building houses. And if you look a bit further in, be able to do that in, hell be able to do that from the constituents that hes putting mps order putting in. Strong mps in order to win labour for the seat. But claire, you see, i still come to that and i think thats a necessary thing to do. I mean, come to that and i think thats a nhave ary thing to do. I mean, come to that and i think thats a nhave gotthing to do. I mean, come to that and i think thats a nhave got aing to do. I mean, come to that and i think thats a nhave got a housing,. I mean, come to that and i think thats a nhave got a housing, complete we have got a housing, complete housing somebody housing crisis and somebody somewhere to take their somewhere has got to take their finger out and go the big finger out and go to the big building and say, oh, Building Companies and say, oh, stop all all stop land banking, all the, all this ground whatever it is, this ground and whatever it is, start houses. Thats Start Building houses. Thats what or well what youre there for. Or well take licenses away or take your licenses away or whatever, it happens to whatever, whatever it happens to be. The venture be. But its the venture capitalists into capitalists that have got into with the funders , the big with the big funders, the big all the hedge funders have got into with all the Construction Companies that are building homes, theyve theyve built in an order for it to an equation in order for it to be quiet. They say affordable they say its affordable housing. Nothing but housing. Its nothing but unaffordable. You what unaffordable. Ill tell you what affordable means. Affordable means very small, very dank, very stuck away, very badly made. Sorry. What . Badly made as well. Yeah. Yeah, it could well be, but its i mean, and then you look at the rental market, i mean, so my, son has a tiny, tiny my, my son has a tiny, tiny little flat and, he cant pay for it. He luckily hes got savings because he lived with his mum for six months, and he, he has to he has to get out part of his savings to pay for it. So its, i mean, to try renting is, is just impossible. And then you is just impossible. And then you look, you know, you you go through london and you look at these beautiful places and theyre all dark. Dark because theyre not inhabited. Because. Yeah, because theyre bought by people from hong kong. From people hong kong. People from people from, abu dhabi. I mean, from, from abu dhabi. I mean, thats where the sales are going. And actually we should be tougher. I mean, you know, we have a housing crisis. Weve got have a housing crisis. Weve got to move it. Weve got to be able to move it. Weve got to be able to live in the people. I would so tough. On if i i would be so tough. On if i see another news report of, mould damp in some persons mould and damp in some persons home kills children. Yes. Home that kills children. Yes. How does hold on to how does anybody hold on to a license to rent after that . You know, these private landlords. Absolutely despicable. Absolutely despicable. Absolutely terrible. Absolutely terrible. Okay, scarlet , should we take okay, scarlet, should we take a look at this one in the daily stars . I mean, totally different. Well talk about i a lot, dont we. At the moment. And now we have i fridges. Yes. So, so this this is a fridge that tells you when your foods going to go off. Who been going to go off. Who whos been who when the fridge door is open.

Warning whilst theres quite a bit of rain across northern parts today, its better news further south if its drier and brighter weather youre after, ill have the details shortly. Were getting a lot of reaction on this story that were leading with this half houn yeah, we certainly are. Its about a muslim teacher in birmingham, aqib khan. He has been sacked for undermining fundamental British Values by a Teaching Regulation Agency. They Teaching Regulation Agency. They were a professional Misconduct Panel and lets find out what it was all about. West midlands reporterjack West Midlands reporter jack carson with this one. So this man is now hes now history. Hes been thrown out of the school. Tell us why jack. School. Tell us why jack. Well, this was an investigation and a decision by a panel from the Teaching Regulation Agency, aqib khan, who is the 30 year old man, a former teacher here at Harborne Academy teaching english. He was found after an internal investigation was handed to the agency for investigation. There agency for investigation. There were complaints against the from a fellow member of staff about concerns around mr khans conduct with students that was put forward onto the schools safeguarding portal. Then, after an internal investigation found and including, you know, the interviews of several pupils , as interviews of several pupils, as it was noted that there was a suggestion of inappropriate religious views and harmful comments about dating and relationships. It was passed relationships. It was passed forward to the Teaching Regulation Agency, who, after that investigation, hearing both sides, representations sides, including representations from mr khan about working in a particularly stressful environment and being of course , environment and being of course, noting that there were no previous disciplinary against him , they did find that he had him, they did find that he had clear motive for some of the comments that he had made.

So he has been banned indefinitely after this review by the panel, and the earliest that he can, appeal that review is in march 2026. Jack carson. Thank you so much for bringing us up to date on that story. Loads of you getting in touch on the debate that we had a little bit earlier on about tenerife and britons behaving badly , gordon says we behaving badly, gordon says we need to learn the culture. Lets be honest and tell it like it is. The spanish simply do not like us. There isnt a Spanish Speaking country that likes us brits. Brits. Ooh, but a lot of you are saying, you know, theres a cost to ed davey, there is nice los gigantes, that you go to. You say youre all treated very well. And carl says the problems drink. The location is irrelevant. Age is irrelevant when they get drunk, they cause trouble. Its as simple as that. Well, do keep your views coming in on that story. Or indeed any of the stories that were talking about today. Gb views at gb news. Com. Well, lets go now to the shadow chief secretary to the treasury, darren jones. Good to see you this morning. Darren. Look, i know that youre here to talk to us about rishis recession and talking Small Businesses, talking about Small Businesses, but we do want to talk to you about our top story this morning, which is, of course, those three aid workers those three british aid workers who killed by an israeli who were killed by an israeli drone strike, seven killed in total, seven people. Whats the labour partys response to this attack . Attack . Well, firstly, the tragic news is, going to be hard for all of the families to hear. As ive said already this morning in tv interviews, one of the families are based here in bristol, and so weve been in touch, with them to help as best we can. This should not have happened. We can. This should not have happened. Aid workers are happened. Aid workers are supposed to be protected. They supposed to be protected. They should not be targeted by military forces in a war zone, their vehicles, their convoy were clearly marked. The route they were taking had been pre notified died. And israel now has to answer questions as to how this unimaginable circumstance could have happened in the first place, and they should do so quickly. The difficult thing, then, is that the consequence of this is that it makes it harder for aid to be made available to people who so desperately need it in gaza, because the aid because this puts the aid workers more risk than they workers at more risk than they should be under. And it closes off routes that people thought might have been available to them to help, and reminds us why its a consequence of that. We have to get to a position of a sustainable ceasefire as quickly as possible, and for a political dialogue to resume. There are discussions in the Foreign Office at the moment in response to this about limiting intelligence sharing with israel and also limiting arms sales. If it is found that israel isnt abiding by International Humanitarian laws, should we limit our intelligence sharing with them . And should we limit arms sales . Arms sales . So theres a couple of separate issues there. Firstly, the foreign secretary, lord cameron, has said that in the first instance, israel must answer the questions that weve just discussed and that the government will consider whether further action should therefore be and we will wait to be taken. And we will wait to see what the government says about in about that in due course. In terms arms licences, there is terms of arms licences, there is a process for licence control for the export of arms. And if for the export of arms. And if the evidence shows that those export licences, the terms of those export licences have been breached, consequences breached, then the consequences that flow from that should flow from and we would expect from that. And we would expect the to set out more the government to set out more detail on in due course. Detail on that in due course. And should be transparent and they should be transparent about that with relevant parliamentary. But parliamentary committees. But the thing to of the last thing to say, of course, is talked about the course, is you talked about the international, course and that is for the is decisions for the International Court to make, not for politicians to make in the same way as it has been, through this conflict, even though very readily the images that we see are horrifying and we want them to stop, we need to leave legal judgements to judges, not to politicians. Darren, just moving you on now to the economic agenda and you ali was was using this term rishis recession and what what proof do you have of this and what are the figures to back up a term like that . Yeah. Hear you. Fine. Sorry about the delay. At the helm of the government and we are in a recession. Its been confirmed by the independent statistics. So thats why we call rishis thats why we call it rishis recession. Its recession. Even though its quite to say , the data that quite hard to say, the data that weve published today, though, from the labour party, the from the labour party, shows the real that. 40,000 real impact of that. 40,000 businesses across the country, small are either Small Businesses are either making less money than they did last year or have gone bust entirely. And people will know that, they look at that, because if they look at their high streets, they will have seen independent shops and businesses go bust. And this is an that cant be related an issue that cant be related to the pandemic. This is a post pandemic issue too, and it really affects the vibrancy and quality of local communities. And thats why we say that there are measures that the government should if they wont, should take, and if they wont, that will take. If we win the that we will take. If we win the election this year to election later this year to support and independent support small and independent shops businesses high shops and businesses in our high streets across the country, i was this morning that was reading this morning that the labour party are pinpointing housing a leading issue in housing as a leading issue in the next general election , that the next general election, that sir keir starmer is going to be taking on the nimbys in order to get lots of new houses built. I mean, that will be welcome news to many people watching to many, many people watching and today. But youve and listening today. But youve got to ask the question, havent you . Is got to ask the question, havent you . Is this talk and no you . Is this all talk and no action to get . Planning is very, very difficult. Theres very difficult. And theres a lot regulation place. Lot of regulation in place. Yeah. We have the plans that yeah. We have the plans that underpin our target of delivering 1. 5 million homes over the course of the next parliament, but we probably dont have time to go through all of them. But there are measures that we have in place about making sure that more planning are available, planning officers are available, at be able to at the councils to be able to make decisions about freeing up, what we call grey belt, where some of are missed, some areas of land are missed, misclassified as green belt when actually really actually theyre really brownfield should and brownfield sites that should and could about could be developed about coordinating our infrastructure investment, whether thats on transport or water and utilities to make sure that new towns are being built with sufficient capacity to meet the needs of local people, and taking the view that where local councils are not getting on with setting targets and setting out the plans for how housing will be delivered, we will use the measures available us in measures available to us in westminster win the westminster if we win the election later this year, to mandate so we can mandate that. So that we can make progress on this important issue for people. Got darren jones got to leave it there. Thank you very much indeed. Darren jones is the chief secretary to the treasury. Joining us now, defence and Foreign Affairs editor this is at the telegraph , colin at the telegraph, colin coughlan. For this one, coughlan. And for this one, colin, were talking colin, obviously were talking about this convoy yesterday we said convoy three vehicles, three vehicles over 1. 6 miles each individually targeted. What on earths going on in your mind, colin . What do you think is behind this . How could Something Like this happen . It has to have been deliberate. Its not an accident. Its not an accident. Well, its. I mean, clearly theres an investigation going on, i dont want to prejudge anybody, but, i mean, clearly, this is a very dreadful event. These people were undertaking humanitarian work , you know, the humanitarian work, you know, the company theyve been working for , the charity theyve been working for, says that they told the Israeli Defence forces what they were doing, and now weve had this absolutely dreadful attack. And, you know, you must you must think from israels perspective. I mean, this is a pr disaster. Theyre all the israelis are already under a lot of pressure over their handling of pressure over their handling of the conflict in gaza, and this really brings it back home to a domestic audience. I mean, i think there will be a lot of palestinians thinking, well, you know, weve had 30,000 odd palestinians killed so far, and a few aid workers get killed and everybodys jumping up and down. What about everybody else . So, i what about everybody else . So, i mean, this this could actually prove to be a turning point in the war, for israel. The war, for israel. And i totally get what youre saying. There my friend, about, a few aid workers and whatever, but theyre not the only aid workers. This year, there has been strike after strike after strike. Most most of which have gone unreported or unnoticed by this. So is there a conspiracy . Is this a deliberate policy or is this accidental . Well, well , is this accidental . Well, well, again, you know, we have to see the outcome of the israeli investigation. I mean, they say theyre going to be transparent. And i think the pressure theyre under from the american, british and australian governments, to australian governments, just to name few, is to put israel name but a few, is to put israel under the most intense scrutiny of conduct of its military of the conduct of its military operations as its face for many, many years. So lets not many years. So lets not underestimate just how bad this is for israel. And im not in any way seeking to , you know, any way seeking to, you know, underplay, the loss of these seven people. I was just trying to put it in some kind of context. And as you say, hugh, sorry , as you say the, the whole sorry, as you say the, the whole problem with so many aid workers, i think the un says theyve lost about 190 odd, the fact that so many have been lost, during the six month conflict suggests that there is there are some real problems with the way the israelis are conducting this, their operations. I dont think i can say any more than that until we see the outcome of the investigation. Investigation. And con, what does this mean diplomatically for israel, especially with israel and its allies . I mean, we saw, didnt we, the israeli ambassador being called in to the Foreign Office yesterday , the first time in 12 yesterday, the first time in 12 years thats happened. And also the us being very critical towards israel. Towards israel. Yeah. Well, i think this is a diplomatic disaster. I mean , diplomatic disaster. I mean, whether whether its intentional or not, the implications for israel are quite horrendous. And the fact that youve got, as you said, these these very senior , said, these these very senior, the prominent World Leaders personally berating netanyahu over whats gone on is a diplomatic disaster. And to have the israeli ambassador summoned to the Foreign Office. I dont think thats happened for many years, and that just shows you the strength of international revulsion at the what has happened. And as i say, i think this is going to have implications for the future of the gaza conflict is going to make israel even under even more scrutiny in the way it conducts its military operations. And what its ultimate objectives are. Well follow with great interest. Colin, thanks for your take on things. Really appreciate it. Got to leave it there. Thank you very much.

W course, gm and of course, malta is a case in point about starvation as a means of military strategy in a war, because germans in a war, because the germans tried starve the people of tried to starve the people of malta submission. Malta into submission. Thats why the island got the george cross. What george cross. Is this what israel trying to do by israel is trying to do by attacking these the these attacking this, these the these humanitarian workers . Because tons aid that was tons and tons of aid that was due go into gaza was diverted due to go into gaza was diverted because the charity said they couldnt protect their staff. And im afraid if they find it was deliberate, its a war crime. It really is. Yeah they died and as you say in the meantime, that that tanker full of, aid has to turn around. Its gone back to cyprus. Shocking. And more people starve. Yeah its awful. Were going to be talking to lord dannatt about that, at the top of the show, were also talking about the fact that four out of five teachers think that ofsted needs overhauling, presumably youve been talking about that a little bit as well. I think probably you cant overhaul a system like that. I mean, you can overhaul it, but some teachers are asking for it to start again, put a line through it and have a completely different system. Are you talk that you going to talk about that muslim teacher . Yeah, were talking of teaching. Yeah, were talking of teaexactly.

Is one in every 32 people in croydon are employed in beauty jobs. So what do you think thats all about . Do you think youre just a very creative bunch are just very beautiful . Well, i mean both obviously, but know, croydon is big but you know, croydon is a big borough and, i know where we are. Were very much part of the community, and theres a real Great Community spirit, in croydon. And i think people, they like to come out, they like to support local, and, you know, its such a diverse area as well , which is wonderful, so i think the great thing is youve got the great thing is youve got the affluent areas, the not so affluent areas, and theres a salon out there to suit all needs and all budgets. And i think thats why, you know, croydon does so well, but nicks, you dont mind if i call you nicks, do you . Sorry. What was that . Sorry. What was that . You dont mind if i call you nicks, do you . You can call me now. You can call me nicks. Thats absolutely fine. There is a cost well, nicks there is a cost of living crisis as well. How do people, you know when things get tough a lot tough for people . A lot of people up themselves. People give up on themselves. They hair can go another they say, my hair can go another three weeks wont get my three weeks or i wont get my nails done, or i dont need a false tan or plant myself or whatever it happens to be. What is it about people in your area . I mean, i know very fashionable areas. I essex is very areas. I think essex is very fashionable. Think cheshire fashionable. I think cheshire is very well. But very fashionable as well. But for to in and steal for croydon to nip in and steal this accolade is brilliant. Why do you think . How do you think people find the extra money . Said a minute ago, like i said a minute ago, i think since the pandemic, self care has become a lot more of a priority on peoples list , of a priority on peoples list, and i think because there are different salons within croydon that can suit different budgets , that can suit different budgets, i think people just do find the money. They might stretch that out a little bit more now. Definitely. Since you know, theres more that sort of crisis over money, but i think generally people do find that money just to come and pamper themselves and just feel good about themselves, you know . A beautiful accolade. So its a beautiful accolade. I mean, you know, it was in croydon last week. I was i was down in croydon last week. I passed through as well.
