All of them as lesser than. But you must give credit to. But the police saw them like that. The social services saw them like that. They saw them as them like that. They saw them as lesser than.

When he was home secretary, he called out these british pakistani grooming gangs, which obviously would have was very dangerous for him to do. He had an awful lot of Death Threats that came in.

Ill show you the chilling aftermath of that Singapore Airlines turbulence that tragically cost a british man his life. Absolutely shocking stuff. Everyones Worst Nightmare that, isnt it. But up next, is labour wrong to back the International Criminal courts arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu, former spokesperson for the Israeli Government ellen levy goes head to head with ex labour speechwriter james matthewson. That will be box office. Dont miss it welcome back to Patrick Christys tonight. Coming up, our super size families with 13 kids fleecing the child. Benefit system reform uk mp lee anderson is live in the studio next. But now , is labour wrong to back the now, is labour wrong to back the International Criminal courts arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu . Its time for the head to head. Yeah. Astonishing development this. So the International Criminal court sparked outrage yesterday after requesting an arrest warrant for israels Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with both rishi sunak and the us president , joe biden, slamming that decision. The iccs chief prosecutor, karim khan, announced yesterday that hed applied for arrest warrants for netanyahu, the Israeli Defence minister, yoav galant, as well as the leaders of hamas on suspicion of war crimes. A decision on whether to issue an arrest warrant will now be made by kc arrest warrant will now be made by icc judges, so we have to wait and see what happens there. But labours shadow foreign secretary david lammy, was quick out the traps to give the International Court his unequivocal backing. Labours position is that the decision by the International Criminal court chief prosecutor to apply for arrest warrants is an independent matter for the court and the prosecutor and labour believes that the uk and all parties to the rome statute have a legal obligation to comply with orders and warrants issued by the court. Issued by the court. So if labour supports the arrest of the israeli leader , arrest of the israeli leader, then surely a Labour Government would also stop arming and start divesting from israel entirely , divesting from israel entirely, thus upending decades and decades of British Foreign policy. And that comes just one policy. And that comes just one day after Starmers Party committed to making it easier to change gender by requiring just a single medical professional to sign off on a gender recognition certificate. So it does look a lot like a vote for labour, might be a vote for more blokes in womens changing rooms, and a vote as well to divest from israel. So is labour wrong to back the International Criminal courts arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu going head to head on this are the former Israeli Government spokesperson, ellen levy, and former labour speechwriter james matthewson. Thank you very, very much , thank you very, very much, ellen. This seems like a remarkable decision. A Labour Government appears to want to make an enemy of israel. Make an enemy of israel. Yeah, its a frankly appalling way to treat an ally and outrageous lack of backbone in the face of a brutal Terror Organisation. I think that Prime Minister rishi sunak was completely right when he said, you simply cannot compare a Democratic State fighting a barbaric Terror Organisation. And that Terror Organisation israel is fighting to prevent another october 7th massacre. Hamas is fighting to perpetrate another october seventh massacre. Its as simple as that. Israel is fighting to bnng that. Israel is fighting to bring back the hostages who are being tortured in those terror dungeons , and its doing it in dungeons, and its doing it in fiendishly difficult circumstances with hamas embedded inside and underneath civilian facilities , taking civilian facilities, taking steps that no army in the history of the world, including britain, by the way, has ever taken to try to keep civilians safe. And so to try to tie safe. And so to try to tie israels hands, stop it going after the hostages, stop it going after hamas is frankly appalling and sends a message that only emboldens terrorists and tell them their tactics work well. Well, james, i put it to you that labour will make it ran very happy by this just to appease the pro palestine mob who used to be their voters. Who used to be their voters. Its all about appeasing anyone. Its not about appeasing anyone. Its not about appeasing anyone. And actually were going to talk about appeasing people. They wont be seen as the British Government right now going to do everything in its way, including the American Government under joe biden. And government underjoe biden. And its very concerned, as we approach elections, crucial elections in both britain and america, that both governments are in this position where they are in this position where they are kow tow to anything that israel does. How far do we follow them down this rabbit hole, this murderous rabbit hole that Benjamin Netanyahu has taken, the israeli people down, the families of those hostages standing bravely in the streets, saying he does not represent us, he does not stand for us. And hes taking the israeli people on this crusade to save his own political career. And in doing political career. And in doing so, is murdering children and civilians every single day. So, james, just just sticking with you on this, then so is labour under a Labour Government, which we may well have in a few months time. Seriously going to make an enemy of israel and with it lose a key ally in a vital part of the world, undo decades and decades of foreign policy. Thats what a vote for the Labour Government would be. Is it . I dont understand how youve come to that conclusion, patrick. He wants to arrest the leader, so its pretty strong. They havent said that they want to arrest the leader. They said they respect the iccs independence. When is it that we started saying as a country that International Bodies , an International Bodies, an important establishment and organisations like the icc are all of a sudden the bad guys, and that all of a sudden some fringe, crazy left wing groups, its absolute nonsense. We respect and should respect the independence of the icc and the fact that the very fact that theyre saying that they want Benjamin Netanyahu arrested and that theyre going to recommend that, and obviously, well see what the result is in the end, you know, when the vote comes to it. But thats the important thing, is that the independence is respected. The meantime, labour isnt passing judgement on that. What david lammy said i yeah, and i think i wonder if thats the point that labour isnt, isnt passing enough judgement on it shouldnt pass judgement. The independence of the icc is a court okay . It should be independent. All right ellen, ellen, come back to that and then the icc is an independent institution. We are duty bound to respect it. Are duty bound to respect it. Do you know the Israeli Defence minister found out that the prosecutor was seeking an arrest warrant from cnn that just tells you the level that this is political theatre or political farce. And this is not serious. Just look at the allegations that we are talking about, accusations that israeli leaders are responsible for extermination. For gods sake , extermination. For gods sake, we are fighting a campaign to get hostages back , to destroy get hostages back, to destroy hamas. And along the way, we, james, urging civilians time and again surrendering the element of surprise to get out of hamas strongholds before this major operation in rafah. Now, hundreds of thousands of people fleeing because israel is telling them, please get out of the way, terrorists are trying to hold you as human, shields the allegation of deliberate starvation, as if over 500 Million Tonnes of aid have not entered gaza since the start of the war, most of it food. As if israel has not added three new land crossings, facilitated airdrops and opened a brand new port. Israel is allowing unrestricted amounts of humanitarian aid to enter gaza. Thats why the markets there are full. Thats why the prices there have collapsed. There is a problem that hamas is hijacking aid. And when you take that and spin it against your own ally, frankly, i think it should leave britains other allies around the world feeling james. Jacob. All right. Okay. All right. Look, james, can i just ask this to you because i mean, by extension, i think of what . Of what david lammy has said today. I mean, it it would only seem natural to me that a Labour Government would then also seek to stop selling arms to israel, would seek to cut a load of diplomatic ties with israel. You would have to do that if the icc Court Decides that Benjamin Netanyahu needs to be arrested, and the labour party backed that, we would have to sever diplomatic and military ties with israel. Is that really what a vote for a Labour Government would mean . Would you back that . I think back in whatever the icc says, its not a question of whether we go that. I mean , its whether we go that. I mean, its not convenient. Morals arent convenient. A lot of the time, patrick, and theyre not comfortable. But when friends and allies commit atrocities, you have to be able to hold them to account. And what i would say to account. And what i would say to ellen is, you know, to say that britain somehow is duty bound to protect israel when israel has just killed british civilians. What kind of friend and ally does that . What kind of friend and ally you know, reacts in the way that theyve done to our civilians who are on the ground providing aid to Palestinian People . This is murder. Its i think a friend and ally stands by israel as it fights to bring back the hostages who represent 24 nations, including british nationals. All right, but i do i do put it to you, james, that there is a bit of a blind spot here from david lammy, which is lets play the tape forward, which is. Okay. So lets say the icc decide that netanyahu needs to be arrested and the labour party backed that. And they wash their hands of it and say, well just have to a duty bound to do this. And then labour gets elected. And then labour gets elected. And then labour gets elected. And then how on earth do they have diplomatic relations with our key ally in that region . And can i also put it to you . Can i also put it to you . James, we reported this yesterday that the polls are in from the west bank, and it shows that support for hamas is actually on the rise. So a free palestine is a terror state on the rise. It is. Its on the rise. Yeah, exactly. So they would vote for hamas, right. So you would, you would, you would stop arming israel to allow hamas to do what would you do if your children were being killed . They are being pushed into the arms of terrorists who are taking advantage of them. That is the doing of israel. And israel is furthering that, and it benefits Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu would do so. And as i would say, finally, on the Benjamin Netanyahu issue, is if you break alliance with Benjamin Netanyahu, you are not giving up on israel as a country. Britain should be an ally with israel. It should stand side by side with the israeli people. Benjamin netanyahu is not israel. He does not represent israel. You know, a okay, james. All right. Look, ellen, can i just ask you, look, what would it mean for britain . Okay, lets localise this. What would this mean for britain if we had a Labour Government and they were they were, you know, squirt full squirt behind an arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu. What would that look like for us here . I think it would be appalling for britain on the world stage. It would be throwing its most powerful ally in the middle east under a bus, while israel is fighting against hamas, which is an iranian proxy army, which is on the same side as the houthis that have been attacking british ships and british personnel in the middle east. The fact is, israel and the United States are strong allies, based not only on shared Democratic Values but shared Democratic Values but shared interests of stability in the middle east. While hamas fights on the same side as the iranian regime, an enemy of britain, of the houthis, an enemy of britain, the sides are very clear and its a very simple moral choice for the world. Are you going to back the terrorist organisation that is vowing to do october seventh again and again, while it holds over 100 hostages . Or are you going to back the democratic ally that is trying to prevent those barbaric atrocities in which whole families were burned alive in their beds . That is the choice. And the israeli people are united in their determination that we must bring the hostages home and make sure that hamas can never do that again. Let me mention the hostages families. Saturday night i was hosting the rally for the hostages family. Were going to have to leave it there. Okay . All right. It there. Okay . All right. Everyone is united, both of you. That there must be pressure on. All right, look, were gonna have to leave it there. Im afraid. Hostages go. Okay, okay, okay. Well have to leave it there. James, im going to give you, like, literally 10s, mate. Im sorry, but go on, finish it off. All i would say is on one point that he just made there because theyre all wrong. Unfortunately, all the points hes made. But one point i would challenge is that when he talks about the houthis being enemies of britain, thats apart from the fact that theyve attacked british personnel. So of israel, does that make them an enemy . All right, look, both of you, thank you very much. We asked for a head to head. We got one. So thank you. That is the former Israeli Government spokesperson, aerilon levy and former labour speechwriter james matthewson. Thank you. Right. Look, coming up, the austrian chancellor, this is big has branded the uk a pioneer for its rwanda plan. And hes not alone. Indeed, what weve just seen in the last few weeks is 15 eu countries actually all making the same point that thats what this, this requires. Thats why our rwanda scheme is so important. Well, will the European Union now follow suit and help quash lefty opposition to the rwanda scheme . I take on the founder of the sanctuary foundation, doctor Krish Kandiah, who still thinks its a terrible idea. Plus, i show you why this belly flop has sparked outrage. But first, as sparked outrage. But first, as its revealed that 24,000 super sized families, which means theyve got more than get this 13 kids are costing the taxpayer a whopping £150 million in child benefit claims. Is it a whopping £150 million in child benefit claims. Is it time to slash child benefit payments . Reform mp lee anderson is fired up and next. Welcome back to Patrick Christys tonight. Now, coming up, are 15 eu countries about to adopt a rwanda style scheme . But first, shocking new figures have been revealed that super sized families of more than 13 children are each claiming £229 a week in child benefit. So they a week in child benefit. So they are among the 24,000 households that claim child benefits for six or more kids. And in total, this racks up a whopping £150 million of taxpayers cash each yeah million of taxpayers cash each year. Currently, there is no limit on the number of kids you can claim for, but the figures have raised serious questions about the need for a cap, much like the two child benefit cap, which restricts universal credit payments to the first two kids in most households. Im joined now by reform uk mp lee anderson. Lee. Do we need to stop all this child benefit for people whove got 13 kids . I think we need to stop something, patrick. I mean , some something, patrick. I mean, some of these parents are very active. 13 kids seems a lot in this day and age. You know, back in the day, you know, 50, 60, 70 years ago, it was commonplace that families would have 89 children, but they had to work hard. Patrick they had to, you know, they had to work hard to, to keep their own children. Nowadays, it seems that if you have as many children as you want to, that the state will pick the tab up. Its not fair on the hardworking taxpayer, and i strongly suggest that if people can have 13 kids, a lot of these are on state benefits. They dont go to work. I know this from the people that i see in my surgery. They probably need to get out more , get a job need to get out more, get a job and contribute towards society. I worry about the message he actually sends to the kids as well. If theyve got parents there that are essentially pumping more out to spend a life on benefits, well, youre absolutely right. I mean, it does send the wrong message out because these these children are being brought up in a culture of nobody going to work in household. You know, its more profitable. Patrick, we know this. If theres if theres a lot more children in theres a lot more children in the house, the parents probably dont go to work. Theyre probably, you know, theyre dependent on the on on state benefits completely sends a wrong message out to children. Theyre theyre living in a culture where nobody actually goes to work in the household, living on benefits. Its not fair on the state and its not fair on the state and its not fair on the children. So look, what do we actually do about this then . Do we put a cap on it . Do we just say, look, if you have more than, what, 4 or 5 kids . I mean, you cant stop people reproducing. So there is that. Well, we havent got a benefit, cap patrick, but there are certain, you know, there are certain ways around the benefit cap. I think its about 22, 23 grand a year and probably a little bit more in london. But theres certain theres certain ways that the claimants can get around this. You can work a few hours a week and then you exempt somebody in the household could be disabled. It could be the old man with a bad back, the old bad back syndrome. Thats a sort of circumnavigates the benefit system. And some of these people are raking in 40, 50, 60 grand a yearin are raking in 40, 50, 60 grand a year in benefits. Thats not fair, patrick. Okay, well, were kind of keeping it work related or lack of here, because unemployed brits will be dispatched to skills boot camps under a new government plan to cut down on immigration and plug worker shortages. Now particularly in the hospitality and social care sectors. So this is looking to try to make it an army of british workers. Speaking to gb news earlier today, the work and pensions secretary, mel stride , pensions secretary, mel stride, hailed the plans as a big opportunity for british workers. Opportunity for british workers. Its an opportunity to really address this issue now that migration is coming down and will be coming down quite dramatically to get the domestic, the british people into those domestic jobs across the domestic labour market. Right. Okay. So this is a way of getting brits to do the jobs that we rely on, low skilled, low pay migration for. Its a good idea, isnt it . Look, patrick, lets be clear. Bone idle dole scroungers should be made to go to work. And if they do not go to work, they should have their benefits. Stop this boot camp. Skills camp is for me , a load of nonsense. Is for me, a load of nonsense. Its simple. Its carrot and stick. If you do not go to work, stick. If you do not go to work, you dont get benefits. And then you dont get benefits. And then you have to go and fend for yourself. Its absolutely. Yeah. But in the meantime , yeah. But in the meantime, time. In the meantime, we have a ready supply of people from all over the world who are willing, who are willing to come in and do the job. So, you know, a boot camp might be a good idea. Patrick, lets stop being ridiculous. I mean, we need fruit picking in the fields. We need vegetables picking. We need you know, stuff picking in factories. You dont need a skills boot camp to teach people how to pick potatoes out of a field. Absolute rubbish. Okay, now, absolute rubbish. Okay, now, lee, talking of food a little bit, you mentioned that your breakfast has gone viral this morning, possibly in more ways than one, with this tweet viewed by more than get this 1 Million People, 1 Million People had a look at your , your full english look at your, your full english there. So, lee, is your breakfast racist . Breakfast racist . Well, its actually 2. 2 million, at the at the last glance out of this, i was having breakfast this morning in parliament in portcullis house. I thought id take a quick photo. Just to see if. Can we bnng photo. Just to see if. Can we bring it up . Can we keep it up . Go on. Lee, carry on. So im looking at the plate and im thinking to myself, weve had a lot of racist things over the past few years in this country. Weve had racist cheese, racist countryside. Im looking at the breakfast plate. That black pudding looks particularly black. Even the white bits are black in that patrick, the sausage looks burnt. The mushrooms look awful. Its looking pretty. Right . Where are the beans, though . Well, theres no beans. I mean, i did actually look for the beans. I couldnt find this morning. I looked for my vitamin c, i couldnt find the tomatoes. It doesnt look a good breakfast. It looks particularly racist. And i cant be having that tomorrow. I mean, is this. Presumably you are making a joke about how the woke brigade decide that now everything is racist, even when it obviously isnt . It is. Its tongue in cheek, patrick. But this is this is our. You know, if we get in this country, you know, the left, the wokerati are always looking for something to accuse us of being racist or bigoted or whatever. It is just a bit of fun. Its funny though, isnt it . 2. 2 million views for a plateful of snap. Yeah, well, its true, its true. I mean, to be fair, lee, whatever you tweet does tend to go viral. So for one reason or another, look, hey, that was your former uk mp , lee anderson. Your former uk mp, lee anderson. Thank you very, very much. Coming up as the pro palestinian mob demand a meeting with the metropolitan police chief over intimidation. Anti arab are they intimidation. Anti arab are they taking the mickey by trying to play taking the mickey by trying to play the victim . I pick the mob play the victim . I pick the mob apart at ten plus. Big interview this Robert Jenrick. Apart at ten plus. Big interview this Robert Jenrick. The former this Robert Jenrick. The former immigration minister has demanded the Prime Minister stand firm on a graduate visa crackdown to help kerb sky high illegal migration. Just urge the Prime Minister to act and to begin to rebuild some of the lost trust and confidence of the public. Well, he wont be happy with the development that happened in the development that happened in the last couple of hours. Ill tell you why. But next, as it comes in for praise from the austrian chancellor, will the uks pioneering rwanda plan inspire other nations to copy britain . I take on the founder of the sanctuary foundation, doctor Krish Kandiah. Thats next. Welcome back to Patrick Christys. Tonight. Coming up as Palestine Action demands a meeting with the metropolitan police over supposed intimidation that they faced, i highlight their shameless hypocrisy at 10 pm. But first, rishi sunak has been in vienna today, meeting with the austrian chancellor to discuss issues including the migrant crisis in europe. And it seems our governments bold plan to ship Illegal Migrants off to rwanda has actually appealed to the alpine nation. We agree and we are Strategic Partners when it comes to making sure that asylum proceedings should happen in safe third countries. The uk is therefore also a pioneer for this model, a model and the path that will be important for the european as well. The. That was a hard lesson, wasnt it . Anyway this comes just weeks after ursula von der leyen said the European Commission wanted to implement the concept of safe third countries, which has since been echoed by governments across the eu. Eu. Indeed, what weve just seen in the last few weeks is 15 non eu countries. Actually all making the same point that thats what this this requires. Thats what this this requires. Thats why our rwanda scheme is so important. We are pioneering something new. I said when i first got this job that where britain leads, others would follow when it comes to tackling illegal migration and you can see that that is now clearly the case. And just this year, in fact, we have returned 10,000 people back to other countries. Thats 2000 people more than we did last year. Well, earlier on today, i spoke to Austrian Social scientist, chairman of the european stability initiative, gerald knowles, who thinks that the rwanda plan could inspire for a change throughout the continent. Theyre looking at, well, what youve seen in in europe in the last year is an intense discussion, which has now led 15 interior ministers to propose to develop the european asylum system in the direction of safe third country solutions, which means asylum status decided in third countries that are safe. And they are embracing this because they realise that the Current System in the mediterranean, with thousands of deaths and hundreds of thousands of people crossing , is a very of people crossing, is a very bad system. And so they are watching what the uk is doing and they are discussing among themselves to how move towards a system with safe third countries, also for the European Union. But what a lot of people are now saying is it will not work. And i think there is a real risk that it will not work if the United Kingdom is not smart, because what ive seen so far, the plans by the uk government and i tell you, yeah , government and i tell you, yeah, there we go. Look, im delighted now to welcome the founder of the sanctuary foundation, doctor Krish Kandiah. Thank you very much for joining Krish Kandiah. Thank you very much forjoining me. Can i ask, did you vote to remain in the eu 7 did you vote to remain in the eu . I did, how does it feel . 15 countries, 15 european nations. Now apparently. In fact, brexit now apparently. In fact, Brexit Britain under a Labour Government might be one of the only ones who doesnt implement a rwanda style scheme. How does that make you feel . Well, its interesting that we are interested in what the eu think about our plans. I thought we didnt care about them. Well, i mean , theyre looking well, i mean, theyre looking to implement it and thats the thats the lovely, fluffy bastion of democracy on the continent. Does that not give an air of legitimacy to what britain wants to do . I dont think so. I believe in taking responsibility. Vie in taking responsibility. Vie patrick, i think your viewers do too. You know, when you go out too. You know, when you go out for dinner and you agree to split the cost of the meal together, and one of you decides together, and one of you decides to skive off and not pay . And thats what were doing when it comes to the rwanda policy. We signed up to the Refugee Convention and now were reneging on that promise. Were saying we dont want to do it because its too expensive. Were a wealthy country. We should be able to look after our own borders. We should be able own borders. We should be able to deal with people that are claiming asylum in our country, and not palm them off to another country that were paying to do our dirty work for us. Okay, can i can i just ask . I mean, you know, i was having a little look online earlier , little look online earlier, doctor christian, i believe, and im willing to uncorrect on this is just what ive seen online. I believe that youre quite active in the Baptist Church community, and that was the group that was responsible for baptising abdul ezedi , for example, and helping ezedi, for example, and helping to allow him to stay in britain and i just wonder if theres some ulterior motivation for you here, whether or not you necessarily have your finger on the pulse when it comes to who should and should not stay in britain. So churches are right across the country , not just baptists, the country, not just baptists, anglicans, catholics, you name it. We believe in showing kindness and compassion to anyone who needs it. You might be familiar with the parable of the good samaritan, its something thats kind of been in the backbone of our nations ethical mindset for thousands of years. Were not in control of who stays here and who doesnt. Who stays here and who doesnt. Thats up to the homeowner. Do you help, though, dont you . And that guy was a sex attacker who went on to be an acid attacker. Acid attacker. The home offices own guidance says that a Church Leader and recommendations shouldnt be a determining factor. Its like when you give factor. Its like when you give a reference for someone that goes for a job. If that is given in good faith and the best of your knowledge, and that person ends up being a criminal, youre not responsible. He was already a criminal, though, wasnt he . Because he did have to have a chaperone at the church. Well, we believe in something called a second chance. Mercy, compassion. And all we can do is compassion. And all we can do is respond to the evidence that weve got in front of us. I dont know the details of what happenedin dont know the details of what happened in that Baptist Church, but i know that ive messed up a lot of stuff in my life, and becoming a christian gave me a second chance. Fair enough. I think that was quite a big boo boo, though, wasnt it . But look, saving lives from people making decisions across coming across the, the channel dangerous journeys across the channel. Thats what the European Union and Member States are saying they want to do, saving the day to day lives of ordinary brits who dont want their countries to be ruined by mass illegal immigration. Do you actually care about saving lives . Oh, definitely. And i think oh, definitely. And i think the rwanda scheme targets the wrong people. We punish the wrong people. We punish the people that are being trafficked and smuggled rather than going after the criminals themselves. And most of the people that do end up coming to our shores actually end up getting asylum. So theyre not illegal asylum seekers. Thats an oxymoron. They end up actually having a valid claim. And i they end up actually having a valid claim. And i do hope, valid claim. And i do hope, actually, that rishi sunak, when he was in austria , is listening he was in austria, is listening to the austrian scheme because as opposed to the rwanda scheme that weve got, if someone does get resettled through a third country under the austrian scheme, they can claim asylum in austria if theyve got a valid claim. Well, our rwanda scheme doesnt allow that. All right , chris, look, can all right, chris, look, can i just say a massive thank you for coming on . Its always great to have your side of things on this particular show. Doctor Krish Kandiah there, who is the founder of the sanctuary foundation. Coming up, the Prime Minister has watered down his graduate visa clampdown , a move graduate visa clampdown, a move likely to anger. Robert jenrick and i spoke to Robert Jenrick a little bit earlier on, so ill show you the full no holds barred interview. But next, well, i get stuck in to the pro palestine mob. Frankly, you will absolutely not believe what theyve decided to do now. I mean, some of these clips im about to show you are completely, utterly shocking. They are playing the victim as Patrick Christys tonight. Ill see you in a sec. That warm feeling inside from boxt boilers , sponsors of boxt boilers, sponsors of weather on. Gb news. Hello. Good weather on. Gb news. Hello. Good evening. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another cooler day on wednesday with some very heavy and persistent rain. For some of us. We do have weather warnings in force for a large swathe of the uk throughout wednesday. Thats as this weather front approaches from the south and east. Wrapped around an area of low pressure through this evening, so some very heavy rain to come through this evening across southeastern areas of england in particular, we could also see some thunderstorms for the first few hours of this evening across the west as well. But that rain will west as well. But that rain will become more confined to the east coast just throughout tonight, and it will turn a little bit dner and it will turn a little bit drier elsewhere. But there will be a lot of cloud around by tomorrow morning, so it will be another fairly mild start to the day. But some drizzly rain will start to affect parts of the east coast, just as that weather front starts to approach to the east coast of scotland could see quite a lot of low cloud around , quite a lot of low cloud around, but the north west of scotland could see some brightness. First thing, but that rain will arrive later on in the day. Across northern ireland. Some showery rain, but its not expected to be as heavy as it has been through today, but its across parts of north wales, the midlands, North Eastern england in particular, where the rain will be the heaviest first thing and that will continue to persist throughout the day. So as the day goes on, i think any impacts from the rain will become more likely as more weather warnings come into force. As that rain pushes up into scotland, weve got another weather warning in force for scotland. We could see up to 100mm, perhaps more, fall over the 24 hours between wednesday and thursday, particularly across parts of north wales into Northern Areas of england. So that could bring some major travel disruption. And temperatures are going to be disappointing for the time of yean disappointing for the time of year, with plenty of cloud around. Rain continues into thursday, particularly across the north and west. Its this north area of wales where theres the most potential for some disruptive heavy rain, but it will turn more showery as the day goes on, and across the south it will start to turn a little bit brighter by the afternoon. A mix of showers as we head towards friday, and by saturday a chance of some sunshine and temperatures climbing towards 20 degrees. Looks like things are heating up.

And just this year, in fact, we have returned 10,000 people back to other countries. People back to other countries. Thats 2000 people more than we did last year. So that shows the progress were making. And including within that are 1700 Foreign National offenders. Again 400 more than last year. So yes , we are making progress. So yes, we are making progress.

The pro Palestine Movement is taking the absolute mickey. Palestine Solidarity Campaign has issued a statement demanding a meeting with the metropolitan police commissioner, mark rowley, because they say they were subjected to frightening abuse, insults and provocation from a pro israel counter protest. Well, thats interesting because there is some evidence to suggest that the opposite might be true. So much. Of europe rests on. Much. Of europe rests on. Its hate are spreading. Hate its hate are spreading. Hate just a woman there telling jews to f off back to europe. Lovely. That statement continues , though head stewards representing the six organisations involved in the palestine marches were horrified to discover pro israeli protesters who police had assured them would be behind barriers well away from the march had been allowed to assemble directly on the agreed route, with only a space of three metres between them and hundreds of thousands of people trying to pass through. Many of the counter protesters were Holding Placards accusing marchers of being rape supporters. Well, firstly, it supporters. Well, firstly, it wouldnt be like the pro palestine lot to enter a space theyre not supposed to now, would it . Well, no backbone and you guys are child killers and genocidal guys. All of you. I bet you. Yes, i knew this doctrine you very well. You guys have no backbone. You are child murderers and you are obsessive compulsive freaks. Controlling body. Compulsive freaks. Controlling body. You all are part of a body. You all are part of a genocide. Genocide. And it wouldnt be like them to hold up offensive posters, would it . Theres some posters with hitlers face on there found at a pro palestine march. Theres also some others of swastikas there we go. And a hamas bandana. Yep. Thats just some of the stuff that jews have to put up with. The palestine Solidarity Campaigns letter continues. As reported by continues. As reported by numerous stewards, march attendees and legal observers , attendees and legal observers, they were screamed at, had phones shoved in their faces and a number of young women stewards, many of them muslims, were threatened directly. Meanwhile, the pro palestine bngade meanwhile, the pro palestine brigade conducted themselves with absolute respect, didnt they . You. You shame on you, they . You. You shame on you, shame on you. Shame on you. And you are part of it. And you are part of it. And you are part of it. And theres definitely no evidence at all to suggest that jewish people in britain need to fear that adults on the pro palestine marches are indoctrinating their children to grow up to be massive anti semites. Were training. Theyre training their children. Were not training our children. Were training our children. Were training our children to train their children i thats worse. Thats worse. Thats worse. The palestine Solidarity Campaign continues. In a letter to the met police, they say the treatment of the pro israel counter protest by the Police Showed a completely different approach to the pro palestine demonstration. Gosh, two tier policing, you say . Well, i never quite openly jewish. This is a pro palestinian march, just a man. Theyre being blocked from going about his business by police for being visibly jewish. And of course, its not as if the police would be more heavy handed with the pro israel protesters. Is it . Hey hey hey protesters. Is it . Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey. Today, hey hey hey hey hey hey. Today, michael gove , the secretary of michael gove, the secretary of state for levelling up, housing and communities, said this know now that it is genuinely dangerous for people to be openly, clearly, proudly jewish near these marches at a time when were all encouraged to be our whole authentic selves, to celebrate our identity , to be celebrate our identity, to be out and proud. There is only one group told that they and they alone can only be tolerated on terms set by others. Jews, the pro palestine brigade can cry all they want to the level of hypocrisy and entitlement here is laughable, given what they get up to the way they behave and the damage theyve caused. What they really want is for no pro israel people to be on their marches. They dont really want to see the israeli flag, do they . They want them gone. Lets get the them gone. Lets get the thoughts of my panel. Im joined this evening by columnist and broadcaster esther krakue. Ive also got the deputy chairman of the conservative party, jonathan gullace, and author amy nicole turner. Jonathan, ill start with you on this. I mean , they with you on this. I mean, they actually are now calling for a meeting with mark rowley because they feel threatened and abused. I find that quite hypocritical. The only meeting some of these clowns who are on these hate marches should be having is one where theyre under caution by the police, because ultimately, when theyre spewing the anti semitic hatred on the streets of this country, calling for the end of the Israeli Jewish state, and the only democracy in the middle east. And quite frankly, ive got no sympathy. In fact, a lot of these people, particularly those who are on visas, should be immediately regained and revoked and getting them out of our country as well, because they pose a serious threat to National Security and to our citizens, particularly those who are jewish, up and down our great country and so i find these these protesters, these hate marchers, these clowns , to hate marchers, these clowns, to be quite frank, you know, an absolute abomination to our society. And im bored senseless society. And im bored senseless of seeing their hatred on our streets day in, day out. You showed the video footage in stoke on trent of them invading a private function at a private Fundraising Campaign event for the conservatives in our city. Some of these people involved in the setting up were part of in the setting up were part of in the past. Hizb ut tahrir, now a proscribed terrorist organisation, who knows what could have happened. So the women and children who are present london march. Well, no, ive seen enough of it which sees the signs calling for the end of the israeli state with the discussing charm. From the river to the sea. I see the banners being held up that obviously have anti semitic tropes against jewish people. Can i ask . I take it you have, i have. I went this weekend. Yeah. But i think its interesting that you can have such massively strong opinions about something you havent been to. You can you can see all over the tv, all over social media. Its an abomination. Its boring. Its costing tens of millions of pounds of british taxpayers money. Its taking Police Officers off the streets in places like stoke on trent, nonh in places like stoke on trent, north kidsgrove and talk. Thats thats the most important point. Look, we do have freedom of speech and freedom of expression in this country and that is fundamental and that shouldnt be compromised. However, there compromised. However, there should be limits on how you exercise that freedom of speech and how you choose to express yourself. You can express yourself. You can express yourself by writing a letter, by having placards, by posting on facebook. You dont necessarily need to express yourself by by marching on the streets of london every weekend for weeks, for months, and costing the metropolitan police £32 million. Because at that point youre youre threatening National Security people that actually need policing services are not able to access them because the police are tied up with these, with these protests, you can argue that there have been, salacious comments and abuse on both sides, but clearly the majority is from one side. You said that its because there are more pro palestinian protesters. Fine, i recognise that, but youve had people like Jewish Business owners, for instance, that are not allowed to open. That are not allowed to open. They cant open their businesses on days when these marches are happening on prime time days of the week, because theyre in the kind of line of fire when these protests are happening. Thats not acceptable. I just want to i just want to. I know you said you go on these marches. Well, no, i went to one this weekend with my son to find out once and for all what its actually like. Okay, can i im just going to play okay, can i im just going to play a clip of someone at one of these marches, which is, is, i think, quite revealing. So here i am at piccadilly circus. I am at piccadilly circus. Maybe jesus was right. Synagogue of satan. Much i condemn any killing of children or rape, but thats what they do. Do i condemn hamas . No. Love and respect for fighting against the enemies of humanity. Men with balls. Can i can i just just just can i can ijust just just for a bit of context, there are hundreds of thousands of people at these protests. At these protests. 250,000. 250,000. Exactly. I think its a complete travesty and an abomination that for some reason, the pro Palestinian Movement has become a haven for the mentally unwell and genuinely malicious. I cant i cant imagine why that is to be the case, but i do think that a bunch of busy bodies with Nothing Better to do that. But what i what i want to know though, is when you see repeat a lie, but when you see repeated stuff like that, right . Are you going to keep marching . Would you march alongside people like that marched from like around Oxford Street to whitehall . I didnt see a single thing like that. One thing i did see was when we went back around to piccadilly, we saw the israel counter protest , and there i saw counter protest, and there i saw a woman screaming into a megaphone to the pro Palestine Protesters who were just walking past peacefully. She was shouting, youre a rape apologist and that was the thing that i was the most concerned about. My son hearing from my whole experience of seriously, thats the truth. Seriously. But there are seriously. But there are people. There are people there, and they had signs saying, but there are people that are justifying terrorist sympathisers. How much evidence and what i found, what i found was, is going on the israel counter protest were very much their signs were very much about their signs were very much about the protesters , the individuals, the protesters, the individuals, the protesters, the individuals, the palestine solidarity, whereas the palestine good signs were more about the Israeli Government, the actions of the government, the actions of the government , the ones that have government, the ones that have got hitlers face on or swastikas on, or all of that stuff, or the power in the minority. And they also not to do with the organisers, like the palestinian Solidarity Campaign, would not associate with that whatsoever. So of course, come down hard on me, honestly. Look, jonathan, i dont know if this was the other way round. Did you see that . Did you see that . Seriously, if you if this was the other way around, jonathan, how do you feel about people who are willing to march alongside these people . I think ultimately, if you end up on a march and you look around and youre surrounded by people pushing anti semitism, but theyre not, i would seriously question whether or not to be on those marches. If i went to a march in solidarity for our veterans , and i was for our veterans, and i was surrounded by the far right who were pushing very racist material, whether that be on placards or through chanting, i wouldnt , i would physically wouldnt, i would physically remove myself in order to make it very clear , these people do it very clear, these people do not stand up for the values and beliefs i hold, and yet tens, hundreds of thousands of people continue to march side by side by anti semites who ultimately need a conversation with the police. Yes, under caution, hopefully in cuffs. Soon to be hopefully in cuffs. Soon to be hopefully in cuffs. Soon to be hopefully in prison. And if they hopefully in prison. And if they do not need to be here, hopefully deported out of our country, get the damn stamp out to port, to port to port. These extremists from our society who are perpetuating this dangerous ideology. Were back in 1930s ideology. Were back in 1930s germany, something that gary lineker is a big fan of when he wants to talk about it. Yeah. When it comes to this on the streets of london, he seems to be utterly silent. This is what the virtue signalling class on social media, the metropolitan elites in london, do not seem to understand. The people in places like stoke are sick and tired of this openly vile anti semitic extremism being perpetuated on the streets, whilst also decimating our own police force in our own local area because theyre having to come down to london to protect people down here. The amount of police time, i think the main point is that you havent actually been and you i want to go because i actually think it would be dangerous. Im talking from a point of ignorance to go. Ive been to loads of them. Ive been to loads of them. To be fair though, also rishi sunak has committed, i think, £30 million to boost the security for mps. I dont think he should really be there anyway, well actually. Yeah. But anyway. But i just think, i think, i think, i think listen, i at some point it becomes, it becomes futile to say which side is more toxic than the other. And i do think but neither side is toxic, really. Because. No, because i do think thats a semantics game. I think thats a semantics game. I think the fundamental issue here is what is actually costing the British Public for the metropolitan police to be spending tens of millions of pounds policing these protests for months on end, at the expense of the average british person having access to police services. I dont think thats good. Im sorry. You have freedom of speech. You have freedom of speech. You have freedom of speech. You have freedom of expression. But there comes a point where the publics interest has to curtail certain forms of freedom of expression. I think if the Political Class were in sync with Public Opinion, then they wouldnt have. Its not about Public Opinion. You can have your Public Opinion on facebook. You dont have to be on the streets of london. Yeah not much is going to change. Well sorry. Well sorry. Were going to were going to draw under it there. Look coming up, did the bbc show their true colours with this bizarre response to the. But yeah, mentalist the butcher of tehrans death. All right. We debate it as i bring you the very first of tomorrows from all right now. Plus sheer terror, sheer terror at 37,000ft. I will show you the chilling aftermath of this Singapore Airlines turbulence that tragically cost a british man his life. But next, Senior Tories like former immigration minister Robert Jenrick wont be happy to hear that rishi sunak is now planning to weaken his clampdown on legal migration. Clampdown on legal migration. I just urge the Prime Minister to act and to begin to rebuild some of the lost trust and confidence of the public. I bring you that full interview next and he does not hold back. Stay tuned to Patrick Christys tonight. Welcome back to Patrick Christys tonight. Still to come, i bring you the very first of tomorrows newspaper front pages with my top panel of pundits. But first. Well, the Prime Minister has faced a significant cabinet revolt against plans to crack down on the number of people arriving in britain on graduate visas. Widely regarded, by the way, as a backdoor into britain, the chancellor, the home secretary, the education secretary, the education secretary and the foreign secretary and the foreign secretary all urged rishi sunak not to tighten existing restrictions on graduate immigration. A government source warned the times this is the difference between growth and recession. I mean, come on, all this despite net migration in britain hitting a record high of nearly three quarters of a million in the latest available figures. Well, earlier on i spoke to former immigration minister Robert Jenrick, who said that the Prime Minister Must Stand Firm against this ridiculous onslaught from people , believe it or not, including the current home secretary, and actually crack on and reduce immigration. Extraordinary scenes today, mr jeremy, with the foreign secretary, the education secretary, the chancellor and the home secretary appearing to lobby against scrapping the graduate visa scheme. I mean, dealing visa scheme. I mean, dealing with lord cameron first, hes not elected. He is beyond his not elected. He is beyond his brief. Is he overreaching here . Well, look , i preferred the well, look, i preferred the former version of David Cameron when he was Prime Minister, and he set our manifesto at reducing illegal migration to the tens of thousands. And along with nick clegg, he scrapped the graduate route. So im disappointed if hes now campaigning to stop us from controlling migration and reducing the number of students coming into the country in this way. Ive been campaigning both way. Ive been campaigning both within government and now since resigning from the cabinet to control our borders, to ensure that we reduce the number of people coming into the country legally. And one of the ways we can do that is by scrapping the graduate route. A lot of people scratching their heads today about the home secretarys role in all of this. Hes privately been accused of rubbishing the rwanda plan, now appears not to want to bring down graduate visas either. What is the point of him . Is the point of him . Well, look, i think its incredibly important as ive said time and again, both in government and after i resigned, that we as politicians meet our promises, we made a very clear pledge at the general election in 2019 to bring down the level of net migration. And that was just one of many manifestos throughout my entire adult lifetime where we have said were going to control and reduce migration. I think it is immensely corrosive to trust in politics and democracy. If we keep on breaking these pledges. Keep on breaking these pledges. And i, for one, am not willing to be just another politician who makes promises on migration and doesnt meet them. Could you just explain to our viewers and our listeners why in your view, it is so important to scrap this graduate visa scheme . Some people say its a back door into britain. Other people say, look, universities need this to exist. Exist. Well, back in the coalition government, we made a decision to scrap the predecessor to the graduate route. And then two years ago, we changed tack and or the ministers at the time did and brought this back. Its not and brought this back. Its not worked as they envisaged. Its to led a very large increase in the number of students coming into the country from overseas. And some of the universities that have taken advantage of it are essentially selling immigration rather than education. Only a quarter of those students whove come in are from the Russell Group universities. So many, most are coming to the uk to do Short Courses at lower tier universities. And that is putting further pressure on housing, on infrastructure , on housing, on infrastructure, on our country for little benefit. What we want to see neil obrien and i, who wrote a report recently on this issue, is that those students who come here and then wish to remain in the uk at then wish to remain in the uk at the end of their studies, have to quickly get a graduate level job, just like anyone else whos looking to come into the country from overseas. We dont think thats too much to ask. Thats thats too much to ask. Thats what we mean when we say that we want the best and the brightest to come to this country. We dont want people to be studying here and then going to work. As deliveroo drivers. We want them deliveroo drivers. We want them to be doing things that make a real contribution to the uk. And the most recent stats that we have available show that 40 of those coming to the uk as International Students and then staying on under the graduate route are earning as little as £15,000 a year in their first year after stopping, after ending their completing their studies. And i think to most reasonable people, thats not sensible. That is not the best and the brightest going on to do graduate level jobs. So i suppose your message to rishi sunak on this will to be stand firm and not necessarily listen to the foreign secretary , listen to the foreign secretary, the education secretary, the chancellor or the home secretary on this. And also, i believe on this. And also, i believe that visa figures are out either tomorrow or the day after. What are you expecting from that . Are you expecting from that . Well, i dont know, is the honest answer. And so well have honest answer. And so well have to wait and see. But whatever the outcome is theyre going to be very high. Theyre going to be very high. Theyre going to be far in excess of our manifesto commitment and what i want to see, which is that we bnng want to see, which is that we bring down the numbers to at least the tens of thousands. And ive proposed that we meet that commitment not with further fine words, but with a legally binding cap set by parliament, so the public can finally have confidence that were going to get a grip on this issue and taking action on the graduate route is just one of a number of things that we need to do, but which we could do immediately to make this issue finally under control. And so i would just control. And so i would just urge the Prime Minister to act and to begin to rebuild some of the lost trust and confidence of the lost trust and confidence of the public with our party on this issue. As i say, i was not to prepared just be a bystander. I was not prepared to allow this to go unchecked when i was minister. Thats why i resigned from the cabinet. Well, you mentioned there about illegal immigration. Other countries. Thats the news today countries. Thats the news today anyway. Other countries are now looking at copying rwanda plan. I think austria seem very keen on it. Theyve gone over the top and said, this is, this is a good thing. Rishi sunak is also good thing. Rishi sunak is also banging the drum, he told gb news exclusively earlier today that hes managed to deport 10,000 people, return 10,000 people, i should say, back to their home country. Thats 2000 their home country. Thats 2000 up, i believe, on this time last year. Up, i believe, on this time last year. So he says, whats your year. So he says, whats your view on on other countries coming around to the idea of a rwanda plan and those returns . Well, i think the rwanda plan is incredibly important. And ive been one of its greatest proponents. If we can make it work and ensure that it is a genuine deterrent , then i am genuine deterrent, then i am confident that other countries will copy it. Unfortunately, the Prime Minister has chosen to pursue the rwanda policy in a half hearted manner. I dont believe that the symbolic flights that hes proposing will be a deterrent, and i would be very worried that as a result of that, it will fail and will be scrapped by a Labour Government. Thats why it is so critical that he pursues a much more robust version of this policy, like the one that i proposed, which would scrap tony blairs human rights act, would ensure that there are not a myriad of legal challenges from individuals making claims and protect us from the activist judges. In strasbourg, the Prime Minister has not chosen to do any of those things. So far. I think thats a serious mistake. But of course i always hope that he changes tack and pursues rwanda in a robust manner. Well , since rwanda in a robust manner. Well, since speaking to mr jenrick, it has been revealed that tomorrow rishi sunak is going to announce a heavily weakened crackdown on the graduate visa route. So yeah, ive been called a migration spin fest. The government is spin fest. The government is expected to put figures out that show that visa applications have gone down good, but simultaneously announce a massive watering down of the previously promised reforms of the graduate visa route. So just to emphasise cameron , the to emphasise cameron, the education secretary, the chancellor and the home secretary , that is the most secretary, that is the most bonkers one of all of this. The home secretary have said, please dont do this. And hes caved in after successful lobbying by all of those people. This package , of those people. This package, apparently is going to put forward will fall short of the tougher restrictions that tory mps like Robert Jenrick demanded. Like drastically reducing the two year working window post graduation and restricting the scheme to top Russell Group institutions. So Russell Group institutions. So essentially that back door into britain appears like its going to be left wide open seriously and can i just say, look what what is the point of a home secretary that thinks privately, apparently, that theyre under scheme is bonkers and also as well does not appear particularly interested in actually reducing a migration loophole . No doubt james loophole . No doubt James Cleverly would deny that. But actions do speak louder than words. Coming up, we hit out at the bbc for claiming the butcher of tehran had a, quote, mixed legacy. Plus i will show you inside that Singapore Airlines plane, that flight from hell that plunged 7000ft in three minutes during terrifying turbulence that cost a british pensioner his life. But next, ill be bringing you a very first look at all right. Welcome back. Its time to give you the very first look at tomorrows newspaper front pages. Lets do it. So front pages. Lets do it. So i lead in with the metro. Extreme turbulence on boeing 777. Brit dies in jet plunge at 38,000ft. Harrowing story that the daily telegraph. Now i lost my hands and feet to sepsis snp. Now look, this is Craig Mckinley. He look, this is Craig Mckinley. He did an unbelievable documentary with christopher hope, our political editor, earlier on. I would urge everybody to go back and watch that. Itll be on youtube. Itll be all over social media. If youve got us on catch up. What a heroic, heroic man who sadly lost his hands and feet to sepsis. But hes battling on, battling on. Hell be in the house of commons tomorrow, i believe. Yeah. So we go to the daily mail at nightmare at 37,000ft. I mean , nightmare at 37,000ft. I mean, theres 1000ft worth of difference between their front page and the metros, but i think well let them off. Unfortunately, british grandfather has died in the turbulence. Terror the guardian the same. Theyve got the picture story there, which is the inside of that aircraft. Alarm though they lead with alarm over big increase in under 40s with diabetes, obesity , junk 40s with diabetes, obesity, junk food and gross inequality blamed for 39 rise in six years. Well, ill tell you why. Its a good job, isnt it . Were not allowed to advertise fast food on the London Underground because if these people saw a picture of a hot dog, that figure would be Something Like 45 at least. Lets go to the i brit charged with spying for china, found deadin with spying for china, found dead in maidenhead park. Wow. So, six days after appearing in court charged with spying on hong kong activists in the uk , hong kong activists in the uk, former royal marine is discovered dead in berkshire , it discovered dead in berkshire, it apparently it is an unexplained death. A post mortem will death. A post mortem will follow. So. Wow thats. Yeah, it is. It is indeed. Lets go to the merritt. Terror in the sky. Yep. Similar. Similar story. That plane incident, isnt it . Daily express british granddad killed in flight. Horror plunge. Yep. There we go, theres also the similar stuff on the times. Theres also a big story on the front of the times, actually, i will say, which is make fewer arrests to keep jails. Sorry to help jails. Police told so the police are being told to make fewer arrests to stop putting people in prison. So thats great, isnt it . Really . Thats where we are now, which is lovely. So yeah, there we go. But there is, ive got my panel here with me, so ill reintroduce those in case you arent just joining us, of course i have got the wonderful columnist and broadcaster esther krakue. Ive got deputy chairman of the conservative party, jonathan gullace, and author amy nicole turner, so were going to go now to, angela rayner, i believe, because she was out and about discussing homes and property today and i know what youre thinking, but no, it wasnt about that. Okay. So as we know, the labour deputy leader has been investigated by police over claims that she failed to pay tax on her former council house. And without a shred of irony, she took the stage in leeds at the uk Real Estate Investment and infrastructure forum. There she infrastructure forum. There she pledged her party would build 1. 5 million new homes within months of getting into government. Right now, britain is in the middle of a housing crisis in hostels across the country. There are kids in temporary accommodation doing their homework on bathroom floors and couples are stuck living with parents, unable to move in and start a family. And peoples lives have been put on hold because there just arent enough homes. Homes. So an astonishing lack of self awareness there from angela raynen jonathan well, obviously angela is currently being questioned under caution by Greater Manchester police , so Greater Manchester police, so i cant possibly comment further. Im sure shell have lots to say as long as they find, i suppose, which house in order to go and question her at would have been the interesting thing there. But look, angela is also quite ironic with this whole speech because actually there was no plan whatsoever. Ironically something labours favourite thing to do. The fact of the matter is that theres been around a million homes built by the end of this parliament, 250,000 through the affordability of homes scheme. Affordability of homes scheme. And if you look at like places like stoke on trent, youre actually building on average 200 homes more per year since we took power in 2010, compared to the disastrous labour legacy that they left our city under the blair and brown, which as we know, when theyre busy selling the gold or, going into Peoples Pension pots and raiding it, you know, they are quite the disgrace. Can i just can i just say you might be a slightly less rosy picture for the tory party on the front of the times, which im going to im going to bring up now. So, so number 10 are neglecting rishi sunaks more popular colleagues lament ministers. So this is number 10. Need to stop trying to placate rishi sunak and instead give air time to more popular colleagues such as Kemi Badenoch and Penny Mordaunt. Thats what Johnny Mercer has been said. And he accused number 10 of behaving as though rishi sunak was still as popular as when he took office. And the way that we know this is because apparently Johnny Mercer got caught writing a memo about this on his laptop on a train. And there he there he is. If we could remove the strap for a second on the bottom of the screen, i dont know if we can, but i think, yeah, its just to make it abundantly clear that Johnny Mercer has also got his trotters out when hes, when hes doing this. So, slightly poor train etiquette there. And the memo mercer accused downing street operation of focusing on, placate king sunak and managing him, basically said that theyve got more popular mps, astor, ill start with you. Is rishi sunak too toxic for the tories . Well, hes the Prime Minister, so i dont know if the plan is to hide him away. Like im just forgetting that this man is the Prime Minister. Look, there are there are more , there are there are more, obviously more popular mps, but thats not very difficult to find. I dont when was the last time we found a universally popular Prime Minister . I do think Penny Mordaunt and Kemi Badenoch. Thats a good shout. But, you know, it depends on whether theyre covering things that are relevant to their to their office. Right. Hes the Prime Minister. So hes the most suitable to talk about anything to do with the country. To do with the country. Youve got a veterans minister here amy, whos whos saying basically paraphrasing. But you know we need to see the pubuc but you know we need to see the public need to see less of rishi sunakin public need to see less of rishi sunak in order for the tories to do better. But apparently we need to see more of his bare feet. I want, i want to smell, but do you remember when you had that video of somebody clipping their toenails . Oh yeah. And you couldnt see their face . Was it johnny . Was it johnny . Was it johnny . No, was it johnny . No, it was it johnny . No, it wasnt johnny. To be fair, i think hes making that line because kemi and penny are more attractive than rishi. Do you think this is a looks thing . Of course. But good looks always works in politics. Good luck. Look at boris. Good luck. Look at boris. Good luck. Look at boris. Oh, thats thats thats an outlier. Well, i dont know. Well, i dont know. I mean, i think hes a fine hunk of a man. Boris. I think rishi is very pretty too. May i say, i think theres a few people who found Boris Johnson attractive in that time, for one reason or another, not a universal era. Gordon brown does it for me. Gordon brown does it for me. Oh, come off it. Oh, come off it. Oh, of course it does. Of course it does. Fair enough. And jonathan, jonathan, i have to put this to you that, you know, you now have the rather unprofessional scene of a minister with his shoes off on a train, writing a memo on a laptop in public that slams your leader. Well, johnny has an opinion. Well, johnny has an opinion. Obviously, hes made that. Hes written the memo, which is somehow being photographed. But let me be perfectly clear. I know the voters in stoke on trent, north, kidsgrove and talk are very aware that theyre going to either have sir flip flop sir softy, in the words of his own mp, sir barefoot and sir keir starmer. Or they can have rishi sunak, who actually has a plan, understands what the people of my area want, has delivered hundreds of Million Pounds of levelling up funding and therefore you will see conservatives returned in stoke on trent, across the red wall and a conservative government after the next election as well. Lets be perfectly clear. All right. They are hiding away. David lammy, they hide away, they try and hide away the socialists, they hide away. Youre nothing. Youre nothing. Just hide away for one second all the time. Because of their radical extremism. All right . Radical extremism. All right . I was only keen enough to stand side by side with. All right, steamroller. Now, look, one of the big. One of the biggest problems with this, esther, is that is that both Kemi Badenoch and Penny Mordaunt are seen as the two most likely successors to rishi sunak, which appears that Johnny Mercer is bangin appears that Johnny Mercer is bang in favour of. Well, yes, thats thats probably another thing. Well, priti patel as well is kind of in that mix. Yes. That does that does, put a negative spin on things, see why theyd be reluctant to do that. But look, hes the Prime Minister. You cant hide him away like theyve tried to do with joe biden. Well, well, this is sleepy joe, those sleepy joe. Those debates are going to be fascinating, arent they . Theyre biden, trump. Actually, im not going to sleep that night. I will stay up all night to watch it. Well, neither is joe because of the amount. No, no, by the way, by the way, the joke, whether joe biden has a public whetherjoe biden has a public audience, thatll be interesting, whether the public are even allowed to attend it. At the moment, his team dont want a live public audience to be spontaneous questions. I think hell be prepping those questions from now. Yes. All right, all right. Now look, we all know that getting a plane comes with a high risk. Well, not that high risk, but anyway, a risk. But dying from extreme turbulence. Now, that is extremely rare. But this was the aftermath of the boeing 777 plane, which fell a whopping 7000ft after hitting an air pocket. It actually killed pocket. It actually killed a man. So 73 year old british granddad geoff kitchen sadly died on the plane, apparently from a heart attack. Geoff, from thornbury in gloucestershire, had just begun a six week trip to singapore. Indonesia japan and australia with his wife linda when the tragedy struck. Linda when the tragedy struck. 30 others were injured after smashing their heads on the overhead baggage cabin so hard that they dented them. So boeing that they dented them. So boeing has said Singapore Airlines offers deepest condolences to the family of the deceased. We deeply apologise for the traumatic experience that our passengers and crew members suffered on this flight. I mean, thatis suffered on this flight.

Good luck coming up on crown tonights greatest britain and Union Jackass , and i show and Union Jackass, and i show you why this belly flop has sparked international outrage. Sparked international outrage. Yes, but next i bring you the rest of tomorrows newspapers. Stay tuned all right. This is Patrick Christys. Tonight, im joined again by my press pack. Weve got columnist and broadcaster esther krakue, deputy chairman of the tory party, jonathan gullace. And author amy nicole turner. Now, if you miss this, well, im going to show it to you, because the bbc recent blunder shows them referring to president raisi as having a mixed legacy in a tribute to the former iranian leaders sudden death. Right. This is a man who death. Right. This is a man who was responsible for the execution of thousands of political prisoners. Is this really balanced reporting from the self titled, unbiased broadcaster . And we showed you the un yesterday. They stood in remembrance of the murderous iranian president , ebrahim raisi, a man dubbed, may i remind you, the butcher of tehran and now the European Union have tweeted as well, the eu expresses its sincere condolences for the death of president raisi and former minister abdullah hind, as well as the members of their delegation and their crew. Can i just add this line at the end . Our thoughts go to the families right . Okay, esther, a mixed right . Okay, esther, a mixed legacy for the butcher of tehran. Yes, i understand that. That sounds ridiculous because it is. But the bbc does have to be impartial and they ofcom will be happy then. Well, yeah, but the thing is, they cant say he is a horrible man, which he is, because there are some people that actually liked him. He did have some supporters, so they have some supporters, so they have to say mixed legacy to seem as neutral as possible. Were not supposed to know the bbcs opinion about this human piece of rubbish, which he was okay, and my condolences to the helicopter that lost its life. Yeah all right, yeah. Jonathan, i mean, what do you what do you make of this, a mixed legacy . Well, patrick, it wont shock you, will it, that i think yet again, the bbc struggled to call hamas terrorists. Apparently thats unfair. They seem to think that that was a blunder. The butcher prescription. They seem to think the butcher of tehran is, has a mixed legacy. I tehran is, has a mixed legacy. I mean, like i say, ofcom will be pleased because impartiality to be ticked off there. So thank god for that, i suppose. Im sure gary lineker will be weeping as well into his cornflakes over the death of this, tyrant. So lets be perfectly clear yet again, its the bbc, completely out of touch with the reality of the world that we live in. Bbc is completely out of touch with the reality of the british people and more importantly, the women and more importantly, the women and girls in particular, who were oppressed under his rule. And ultimately, yet again, lets just get it once and for all. Lets scrap the licence fee from the bbc and now the British Public, to finally decide whether or not want to tune in and pay for this nonsense. All right, look, amy, its got to be fair. Its not just the bbc. The eu have piped up as well. The un of pipes, apparently. I saw this just before we came on air. By the way, apparently the united nafions way, apparently the United Nations have lowered their flag to half mast. Yes. Oh, god. But you can kind of understand the un one because they have to treat all Member States equally. No, whenever it is more of a formality. Iran are a nuclear power. So i think its probably better to keep them sort of onside, to be polite, in that they nuke the un headquarters. What theyre going to do is just, you know, the un, hundreds of drone one. I could almost make sense of, but the bbc one. No, but when you click through, it is a little bit more like esther said there. They dont have pockets of support in hamas. One, they obviously failed because hamas is a proscribed terrorist group in the uk. Like it wouldnt have been breaking impartiality rules to state a fact. Impartiality rules to state a fact. But in this impartiality rules to state a fact. But in this case, obviously i understand they have. Im going to im going to introduce Something Different now. Now time for something completely different. As they say. In february this year, a video was shared on instagram showing a man in new zealand jumping from a pleasure boat into the sea right next to an orca in its calf. The 50 year old has been fined now 600, with investigators left genuinely stunned by the mans extremely irresponsible behaviour. We have got a clip. Apparently some viewers might find this obsessing. Go watch that. Oh my god, its behind you. Oh my god, its behind you. Oh my god, its behind you. Im not just. Lets just play that again forever. So basically , this guy, theyre on a boat. Theyre on a pleasure boat. Theres an orca killer whale with its calf next to it. And this idiot, presumably after a few beers, decides that he wants to go and join it for a cuddle and a swim. Where did it go . And a swim. Where did it go . Oh my god, its behind you. Oh my god, its behind you. Oh my god, its behind you. And what is this . I mean, that hes lucky to be alive. Hes very lucky. Lucky to be alive anyway. Right. So its time now to bring you todays greatest fryston Union Jackass esther, who is your greatest britain . It has to be Craig Mckinley. It has to be Craig Mckinley. Yeah, it has to be, i when i actually saw that interview, earlier on his spirit is so uplifting, you know, going through what he went through. I mean , basically being, i think mean, basically being, i think all his limbs amputated and still wanting to be an mp and even rebranding himself as the bionic mp. I think thats really weve got a clip, weve got a clip. Everything was still on the shutdown. It was quite serious. And wife was told that theyd very rarely see people who have this amount of illness in the hospital and perhaps prepare for the worst, maybe they could have saved a bit of a foot. But my surgeon said , you are better off surgeon said, you are better off having them off because you can have prosthetics and youll walk far better than having a party. Yeah. Brave man, brave man. Jonathan, whos your greatest briton . Well, obviously, d day remembrance is coming up. So all our amazing d day veterans, including my great great uncle allen dulles, who is still alive today and will be 100 this year and was in fact a veteran of d day himself and recently got his legija on there, when they all were out. There, when they all were out. So yes, fantastic. Our heroes, amy, ive picked i think is a real reminder of how horrendous the infected blood scandal really is, is a seven year old boy who lost his life when he was a haemophiliac. Haemophiliac and he had the blood transfusion, which he contracted, the aids virus. And he died when he was just seven years old. Oh, poor lad, i think it just reminds you of. Yeah it does. Thats a horrific look. Well, look, to be honest, lets be, you know, every single one of them could win. Its gone to Craig Mckinley mp again. Ill just say, you can watch that documentary with christopher hope, our political edhon christopher hope, our political editor, watch it online, etc. But an incredibly worthy winner as all of them would have been. Right . Lets rattle through the union jack asses. So go on, the guy who jumped the new zealand man who jumped on that whale. Thats quite horrifying, actually. Yeah , ridiculous. But fined yeah, ridiculous. But fined £600. Hes lucky to be alive, and hell go on to another, the bbc. Do you know why . Do you know why . All right. All right. The union jack every week. The union jack every week. Yeah. Yeah. Its a theme. Theres a theme going. Amy, heres your Union Jackass, jeremy hunt for using up Civil Service time and money, points out facts. Points out facts. Attack the government. Attack the government. Im not sure thats in their remit. Remit. Okay. Okay. Okay, fine, and todays, we need jack carson the bbc. So for the old. Thats shocking , but for the old, you shocking, but for the old, you know, mixed legacy of the butcher of tehran. All of that stuff. Right. Well, look, i will be back again tomorrow at 9 pm. Make sure you keep it gb news, though, because headliners are up next. I say a massive thank you, thank you, thank you. Its been a rip roaring show. I will join you tomorrow at 9 pm. So we do it all again. Keep fighting the good fight people. Good fight people. A brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on. Gb news. Hello. Good evening. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another cooler day on wednesday with some very heavy and persistent rain. For some of us. We do have weather warnings in force for a large swathe of the uk throughout wednesday. Thats as this weather front approaches from the south and east. Wrapped around an area of low pressure through this evening, so some very heavy rain to come through this evening across south eastern areas of england in particular. We could also see some thunderstorms for the first few hours of this evening across the west as well. But that rain the west as well. But that rain will become more confined to the east coast just throughout tonight, and it will turn a little bit drier elsewhere. But there will be a lot of cloud around by tomorrow morning, so it will be another fairly mild start to the day. But some drizzly rain will start to affect parts of the east coast, just as that weather front starts to approach to the east coast of scotland could see quite a lot of low cloud around, but the north west of scotland could see some brightness. First thing, but that rain will arrive later on in the day. Across northern ireland. Some showery rain, but its not expected to be as heavy as it has been through today. But its across parts of north wales, the midlands, North Eastern england in particular, where the rain will be the heaviest first thing and that will continue to persist throughout the day. So as the day goes on, i think any impacts from the rain will become more likely as more weather warnings come into force. As that rain pushes up into scotland, weve got another weather warning in force for scotland. We could see up to 100mm, perhaps more, fall over the 24 hours between wednesday and thursday, particularly across parts of north wales into Northern Areas of england. So that could bring some major travel disruption. And temperatures are going to be disappointing for the time of yean disappointing for the time of year, with plenty of cloud around. Rain continues into thursday, particularly across the north and west. Its this north area of wales where theres the most potential for some disruptive heavy rain, but it will turn more showery as the day goes on, and across the south it will start to turn a little bit brighter by the afternoon. A mix of showers as we head towards friday, and by saturday a chance of some sunshine and temperatures climbing towards 20 degrees.
