Thank you cameron. It is fast approaching seven minutes after 3 00. This is gb news. We are the peoples channel. Im nana akua welcome. Oh my goodness. Akua welcome. Oh my goodness. Its time to mock the week. And what a busy one its been. I mean, the week was dominated by the announcement of a general election, with rishi sunak talking with the labour party anthem in the background. Earlier today, i spoke with his majesty the king to request the dissolution of parliament. The king has granted this request and we will have a general election on the 4th of july. Well, this is on a par with theresa may in her conference speech. Remember the one where she lost her voice . The letters fell off and somebody handed her a p45. Well, later , rishi a p45. Well, later, rishi addressed the tory rally on the 5th of july i the keir starmer i will be Prime Minister and he has shown time and time again that he will take the easy way out and do anything to get power. If he was happy to abandon all the promises that he made to become labour leader once he got the job, how can you know that . He wouldnt do exactly the same thing if he were to become Prime Minister . Well, we conservatives have got a clear plan with bold action to secure our future board. So lets take that message and that vision of a secure future to every corner of our United Kingdom. And lets show labour that the british people will never be taken for granted. Never be taken for granted. Labours sir keir starmer and his lacklustre speech was where he was clearly caught by surprise with the announcement. Surprise with the announcement. Most importantly of all, we do all this with a new spirit of service as country, first party, second, a rejection of the gesture, politics you will see in this campaign. I have no doubt from the tories and the snp. Im well aware of the snp. Im well aware of the cynicism people hold towards politicians at the moment, but i came into politics late, having served our country as leader of the Crown Prosecution Service , the Crown Prosecution Service, and i helped the Police Service in Northern Ireland to gain the consent of all communities. Service of our country is the reason, and the only reason why i am standing here now asking for your vote. Well, he looked at me like he couldnt believe his luck. I got a sense of i cant believe i might actually be in power. Ive seen more and more excited when hes his Football Team are playing arsenal, isnt it . Ed davey and his liberal Democrat Crew of neither here nor there. Everyones grinning like cheshire cats. Favourite word change for far too long, people across the United Kingdom have been let down and taken for granted by this conservative government, and this out of touch conservative party. But with this election, we have the chance to win the change our country so desperately needs. Desperately needs. Yeah, theyre all talking about change. Change change, change, reform. Richard tice claiming no nonsense from the other parties and that they will be standing 630 candidates. Do they even have 630 candidates . Everybody feels worse off after 14 years of tory failure. After 14 years of tory failure. Thats the result of incompetence. And these experts , incompetence. And these experts, along with weak, feeble politicians who have broken britain and sadly , that failure britain and sadly, that failure of the establishment and the experts manifests itself in the great scandals that we hear about. The snp made their voices heard. Heard. Never has a government deserved to lose more than rishi sunak government. You want higher Living Standards and a fairer country where everyone can lead, secure, happy, healthy lives. You want a National Health service you can rely upon . Most of you think that brexit was a terrible mistake. You do not think westminster works for scotland and you want scotland to have a strong voice. All of those things sum up what i am about and the dup. There is a Good Opportunity here, but theres a choice for the people of Northern Ireland. Do they want to elect people who dont bother to turn up for them in our national parliament, or they do want to vote for people who are prepared to go to westminster and put forward the best case for Northern Ireland as part of this United Kingdom. Thats the history that we have, and thats the message that we will bring. That we will bring. So thats pretty much it the best of well, i dont know any of them. Take your fancy. Here we go again. We go again. Youre joking. Not another one. Its been a mucky old week. Its been a mucky old week. Well, coming up, comedian josh howie, well be making light of this weeks top stories in mock the week at 320. Its my hot topic and my roundtable discussion. Well be talking discussion. Well be talking about sepsis as inspiring conservative mp Craig Mckinley returned to parliament this week after his battle. Then, at 335, after his battle. Then, at 335, uri geller will be live to discuss the impact of the uks general election on the war in on israel and in israel. And joining me to shine a light on the political hot seat today is, of course, sir john curtis, polling expert and professor of politics at the university of strathclyde. Hes in my political spotlight. At 345. Thats coming up. Tell me what you think on everything were discussing. Send me your views. You can post your comments by visiting gbnews. Com yoursay. Visiting gbnews. Com yoursay. What are we going to do . Just go for it. Right. So joining me now comedian josh howie. Its mock the week where its been pretty mucky. All right lets kick it off. Rishi sunak speech i mean there he was in the rain with there he was in the rain with the music in the background. Well i dont think it was rain. I think it was sweat. I think it was sweat. Do you think it was on top of his clothes . More drenching . No, not just more drenching . No, not just his sweat. Just the sweat of all the tory mps as well. Realising that theyre most likely out of a job very soon. It was so tragic. And the music as well, that the labour party arade dam, that was pretty funny. Why could they not stop the music . I mean, at least just out of respect . Well, it was, i think was it steve bray who did it . I think i mean, i feel for rishi, i genuinely do because but that ive got to go was that was funny. Well it was very funny. I mean its sort of like that sort of almost like a drowned rat, as if everyones jumping off the ship of the tory party, all of them leaving an exodus of mps. Its a sad state of affairs where i heard that one of the reasons why they went to an election now was that they didnt think this country would get any better, or would only get any better, or would only get worse over the next six months or so. And if this is if were at the pinnacle of where a tory government can take us, thats a sad state of affairs. Thats a sad state of affairs. Well, i mean, sir keir starmer, he responded with his speech. Now i mean, i watched that and thought he he looked surprised. Oh my god, i might surprised. Oh my god, i might actually have to do something. Actually have to do something. I know the moment hes been sort of clinging onto for years, but that i mean for me, him talking about gesture politics and then he is like surrounded by, i dont know how many british flags that they uk flags , they could get into the room at one time. And hes literally dressed as a, as a, as a uk flag. I mean he had the red tie, the white shirt. Hes sort of a blue ish. He said. So it was pretty much the whole thing was just like, im, im a patriot and i am not Jeremy Corbyn. That seemed to be the main message. Not that im a change from the tories, but im a change from the 2019 disastrous election for laboun the 2019 disastrous election for labour, deservedly so. Labour, deservedly so. Well, Jeremy Corbyn is hovering around now. Hes an independent candidate , isnt he . Independent candidate, isnt he . Somewhere in north london . Yes, im not sure who im going to campaign for, but i just know id be out there campaigning against him. Gladly. Interesting. And what about interesting. And what about the liberal democrats . Because for me, there was always a confusion as to what colour their banner was, whether it was yellow or orange, yellow, orange , i know, but but thats doesnt maybe that sums them up. We dont really know what theyre about. He seemed very smiley. He was he was just he was very happy to have a chance of getting a couple more mps. I also quite like they had a sort of handheld camera. That was it was very sort of cinema verite. Was very sort of cinema verite. It just showed that the lib dems are dangerous and crazy kids. Were crazy. We got it going on while surrounded by sort of other mps in the background. Yes, exactly. Yes, exactly. So youve got them. Who else have we got . Weve got the snp. Yes i mean they have wrecked scotland pretty much. I know, i mean that was so sort of calling the kettle pot, calling the kettle black or whatever , but because its like, whatever, but because its like, oh they, we accused the tories of wrecking the uk. Yeah. And the snp have wrecked scotland and this is their comining now, that, the you cant talk about the nhs when they controlled the nhs in scotland and have and its much and its actually worse somehow than the uk. Than than than england and even wales. So yeah this is a coming for the snp and, and again about time. Yeah. Theres a feeling that labour will do. Well. I mean they used to have a stranglehold on scotland and then of course the snp came up and to me when i, you know, i would have thought that looked like a failure of the Labour Government to not or the Labour Government to not or the Labour Government to not or the labour party to lose their stronghold on scotland, which hopefully , in my view probably hopefully, in my view probably means the union is safer if at least one of the mainline parties is. Absolutely. I mean, be careful what you wish for and the scottish people wanted or enough of them wanted, nationalism. And they wanted to go nationalism. And they wanted to 90 by nationalism. And they wanted to go by themselves. And they saw what would happen if an snp government came into power and they had it and it didnt work out. Well it was a bit like the management of brexit, really. If you look at it. I mean, weve been given control and we seem to have royally stuffed elements of it up and havent, in my view, taken advantage of some of the things. What about the dup there . There to my only insight is that hes a big boy. Hes a its a if he told me to vote for him, i would probably just do it out of fear. But just him just go, of fear. But just him just go, just vote for me. Id be like, yeah mate, okay, that is pretty much our our roundup of candidates. And were not mentioning greens greens in any way. Another do you think the greens have some sort of. No, i think they become the sort of bastion of cranks. They got kicked out of labour and i feel like they, the greens have been sucking them in and i dont even know if they its the funniest thing for me seeing greens is theyre sort of desperately trying to connect. Theyre new followers, which are frankly a lot of islamist followers and trying to connect the war in gaza somehow to saving the environment. Yeah, its an odd thing, isnt it . Well, i think part of it is the Greta Thunberg connection, because of course, greta got herself involved in all of that, probably because she was losing relevance. And a lot of people are actually going off net zero. The conservatives i know are considering dropping that in as a main policy. Liz truss talked about that, this week. But interestingly, i think shes conflated it. So its helped them with their sort of cause. I helped them with their sort of cause. I dont see the connection. No, there is no connection. I think the connection is shes young and a bit ignorant and stupid, like so many of the people out on marches. And its virtue signalling, and shes surrounded by other young , surrounded by other young, stupid people. And, and i think its, its a shame. And it does her cause of the environment. I think actual harm does. Do you think young people should get the vote . Sir keir starmer was saying that if you work, you should vote, which would then. No, i think thats a stupid mistake, i think i cant believe this is the first big policy that hes announcing. I think thats absolutely ridiculous. Theres much more out there, much more important stuff to focus on. Housing. For many people, the nhs , many people, the nhs, immigration. Theres just a lot more out there. This is like a fringe issue. The its so obviously self serving because of course younger people are going to vote labour anyway. And im probably going to vote laboun im probably going to vote labour. I havent fully committed, but i just think its just bad optics and a bad thing to focus on where theres so much more out there that needs, needs our attention. Well, i personally i have no idea who i would vote for, but i will urge everyone to exercise their vote. It is important people fought for that to be the case. So josh then so 16 year olds yes or no to the vote. Ridiculous. Self serving policy stupid. Yeah, absolutely. I dont get it at all. And young people are stupid and not just 18 year olds are stupid. Im stupid , but the are stupid. Im stupid, but the 16 year olds are even more stupid. Well, the thing is, because im undecided, im an old oldie, so if i cant work out what to do, then i dont see how theyre going to do it either. No, i think its shocking. Silly. Yeah. So, josh, when are you back on . When are you back on . Im back on this evening. Im hosting headliners, so please tune in. Watch the show all day, watch the channel, and ill put on a suit in the meantime. And and well see you in a few hours. Thank you very much. Josh howie on headliners tonight, 11 00.

He and the inspiring conservative mp craig mackinlay. He returned mp craig mackinlay. He returned to parliament this week after his battle with sepsis. Now he had extreme symmetry that removed both his hands and feet, replacing them with prosthetics. He sat down with gb news christopher hope, but one day his life changed. Suddenly. It was one of those days that will be etched on craigs memory for life. It was craigs memory for life. It was the end of september 2023. He was getting ready to go on houday was getting ready to go on holiday with his family. He started to feel unwell and unexpectedly , vie craig had unexpectedly, vie craig had contracted sepsis, so the grim reaper let me survive. But hes taken his payment in four of my limbs. But thats the way it is. But thats the way it is. Plenty of worse things happening. That is it. Happening. That is it. No way back. Happening. That is it. No way back. And, that is it. No way back. And, yes, he was very matter of fact. He accepted that they black. Theyre not any use anymore. Theyre not any use anymore. And thats it. And thats it. So he had a very long, very long operation. And he did come long operation. And he did come back. Long operation. And he did come back. Without those black arms back. Without those black arms and legs. And legs. And by then i was fine. And by then i was fine. I just knew that is it. Thats the new, new future. New life begins. New life begins. And, of course, i mean, it could have been a lot worse , but could have been a lot worse, but his wife was brilliant. I mean, shes a pharmacist. And she said that they were actually going to cut his arms off at the at the top of his arms and the top of his legs. But then, she managed to talk them out of it and thankfully he, he survived this. Well, joining me now is psychologist and social commentator doctor pam spurr and also nhs gp doctor doctor david lloyd. Thank you so much for joining me, now i want to start with you, doctor david lloyd. What is sepsis . What exactly how doesit what is sepsis . What exactly how does it work . What is it about . Does it work . What is it about . So it starts with an infection. Very often a bacterial infection, and it overwhelms the bodys defence system. And as a result of that, system. And as a result of that, the body goes into organ failure. Everything fails. And failure. Everything fails. And the tragedy is that that process starts blood clotting in the places where it shouldnt. And so the periphery of the body, so the hands and legs, lose their oxygen supply and go black and tragedy occurs when gangrene sets in. And really, you have to sets in. And really, you have to set the surgeons on the patient, to, to cut the limbs off before they, cause any problems for the rest of the body. Sepsis is an incredibly common condition. There are five people dying every hour in the uk. And sepsis. Wow. Now this is. Most people would have heard of it, but have thought that it wouldnt really affect them. Doctor pam spurr , i affect them. Doctor pam spurr, i understand that you you have had a personal experience with, with the disease or the condition. Yes. I didnt in 2016. Yes. I didnt in 2016. Id been skiing in france. Id been skiing in france. Id been skiing in france. I woke up the last morning of a holiday with, spider bites on my hands, which were horrendously itchy , so i didnt horrendously itchy, so i didnt think anything of it. I thought, well, you know, i went to the chemist there. The french chemist gave me some ointment , french chemist gave me some ointment, said, definitely a spider. There were two fangs for each bite to, you know, puncture marks. Got to home london. Was going to go on this Morning Television for an appearance went along and they were getting really bad. And i said to the makeup artist, i better put some makeup on this. My hands are looking horrible and so she snapped on makeup, which was the worst thing to do because makeup is full of bacteria, after the program , i bacteria, after the program, i called my daughter in law, who was a trainee gp, and she said, if your gp cant see you this afternoon , then go to a e went afternoon, then go to a e went to my gp, he put me on oral antibiotics, which is classically the first thing you do for, say, Something Like infected bites. But then he said infected bites. But then he said if it gets worse and he drew a circle with a pen around the bites on each hand and said, if the redness spreads, go to a e by that night i made my first trip to a e. They put me on an iv and they told me to come back the next day for a second iv, and they again were doing circles. And the circles are circles. And the circles are getting bigger. By day three, the Junior Doctor in a e looked with such panic , called with such panic, called a consultant and the consultant admitted me into my own room. I was on drips for eight days. The cellulitis, the cellulitis became sepsis. My body overreacted. I was very ill by the end of that week, but then they kept trying to bring cocktails of antibiotics, which they will do in hospital if youre not responding. They try. They throw everything at it. And the final cocktail had an enormous effect on day six. And by day eight i was released. I had a Community Nurse come tend my hands for a week. After that, she came on five different occasions and then they have recovered with just darker skin from the sepsis and some scarring from that where the tendons got my hands were so bloated, the tendons were pulled. Im lucky because i caught it early. Talking to my daughter in law, as i say, was a trainee gp. Youre 50 more likely to survive if you catch it early. And that is the big message, you know, get into your doctor, get into a e if you if and im sure as doctor lloyd can say, there are many different symptoms of sepsis. Mine started with the skin infection cellulitis. But then i went into sepsis , so david. Yeah, what sepsis, so david. Yeah, what should we look out for, to give us an indication as to whether we have sepsis or not, because its, as i understand, quite difficult to initially work out what it is. It takes a while and then eventually it becomes obvious. Obvious. Yes, i think so. I think that since covid, a lot of us, of course, have got these little gadgets at home which measure our oxygen and our pulse rate. So you can be a little bit more accurate than we used to be. But i think a sudden onset of i think we can im sorry, im going to go on a bit, but, divided up into adults and children. So if youre an adult, if you suddenly develop acute confusion, you get slurred speech or get confused when you start shivering with a very high temperature. Or alternatively , a very low or alternatively, a very low temperature, if you havent passed any urine in a day and you get very out of breath and youre breathing very fast, and a lot of people who get sepsis say it feels as if im going to die. They feel so dreadful that they think something awful is going to happen. And as as has going to happen. And as as has been demonstrated, if youre going to get if your skin start to mottle or if you get a rash that doesnt fade away when you press on it, those are all the signs that you should think sepsis and really dont stop. Youve got an hour to get the antibiotics into you and then youll do all right. Really. So its so i was going to say its more difficult in children. And its particularly more difficult in babies. And so in babies and the very elderly. Those are the key groups that really do suffer the most from sepsis. So if youre a mother of a young baby, youve got a much tougher job trying to identify sepsis in your baby. But, if your baby is not feeding, if your baby is breathing very fast, if your babys got a temperature, and particularly if youve got this awful meningococcus rash where it looks like blood under the skin, and when you try and stretch the skin, it doesnt disappear. Stretch the skin, it doesnt disappear. So those are stretch the skin, it doesnt disappear. So those are the disappear. So those are the signs to call for help straight away. Okay. Well, thank you very okay. Well, thank you very much for that. Thats doctor david lloyd. And also our political commentator, doctor pam spurr. Thank you very much for your thoughts. Thats, so yeah, obviously if you do are worried about anything like that, of course, go straight to a e, you know, because sepsis is quite a serious condition, as you saw in craigs condition. It can it can take over quite quickly as well. If youve just quickly as well. If youve just tuned in. Welcome. Its coming up to 31 minutes after 3 00. This is gb news time. Nana akua.

But shine a light on the latest polling. But coming up shine a light on the latest polling. But coming up next, polling. But coming up next, well be going live to tel aviv to hear from uri geller and his thoughts on how the uk election will impact israel. Dont good afternoon. Its just coming up to 37 minutes after 3 00. Welcome. If youve just tuned in. Where have you been . This is gb news. Were on tv, online and on digital radio. Im nana akua. And its time now to get the latest from israel. Now, as earlier this month , people in earlier this month, people in england and wales voted in local and Mayoral Elections. As and Mayoral Elections. As a first glance, at first glance, labour appeared to dominate , labour appeared to dominate, with the conservatives losing over half their races. However despite winning in many areas, labours support saw a decrease in areas with a high number of students and muslims who cited gaza as the reason for their shift away from the party. So the question im wondering is what impact could the up and coming uk general election have on israel and vice versa . Well, joining me now is performer and mystifier uri geller. So uri, whats on your mind . Okay, look. Wow. Nana. What a week. So much has happened. Britain calls an election. The president of iran is killed. The president of iran is killed. The International Criminal court is thinking of arresting our Prime Minister. Wow. Thats enough to fill an entire program. But first, look at this. This is first, look at this. This is heartbreaking. The idf just found the bodies of these three israelis who were murdered on the 7th of october. Hamas took their bodies to gaza and held them. Such cruelty. Now, did you know labour. Labour supports a ceasefire before we get the rest of our hostages back . Thats unbelievable. So whoever becomes the british Prime Minister in july really matters to israel. On the one hand, keir starmer supports a ceasefire and on the other hand, rishi sunak doesnt nana. As you know, im an israeli, but im also a british citizen, so i do care about the outcome of the elections now. Outcome of the elections now. The main parties policies are actually very different about israel. Keir starmer is more enthusiastic about recognising a palestinian state than rishi sunak and in my opinion , this is sunak and in my opinion, this is my opinion. This is very dangerous. You cant force a palestinian state on israel. It palestinian state on israel. It would be immediately overrun by hamas and they would attack israel again and again. Now you also just had local elections and labour lost and labour lost in areas with large muslim populations. As you said, this populations. As you said, this is also very , very worrying is also very, very worrying because they now have to win back the support of voters who dont even believe israel should exist. Now look at this. Look, exist. Now look at this. Look, all these marches in london, all the student protests, all the unions, most of them are labour supporters. And for them, the palestinians are the number one cause. Look, nana, it makes no sense. What has the palestinians sense. What has the palestinians got to do with nhs waiting lists or education or jobs . But every labour conference and you know that you see palestine flags everywhere. I believe if keir starmer gets in, there will be a surge in anti semitism because the left is obsessed with israel. All the anti semitic ism and hatred of israel, which rose up under Jeremy Corbyn, is still up underJeremy Corbyn, is still there under the surface, and i think it will sweep keir starmer away. Now, finally, there is also something else. Did you know, nana, that labour said said they would respect an order by the International Criminal court to arrest our Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu . I hope you know that because just to be clear, the icc has not issued an arrest warrant, but it issued an arrest warrant, but it is thinking of doing so. So if labour gets in and our Prime Minister visits london, he could get arrested on the tarmac of Heathrow Airport this can never be allowed to happen. So finally, finally , there are six finally, finally, there are six weeks until the vote and a lot is going to happen between now and then. So nana, you know that we will have a lot to talk about. Until then. I love you all. Thank you very much for having me on your show. Thank you very much, uri. Thats a brilliant uri geller and his thoughts on the up and coming elections and what effects it might have on this country. Although i will say that of course, the students at those rallies would say that they are fighting for peace. And they are fighting for peace. And on one on the one hand, though, i do agree that it is interesting that our governments, whichever be them labour or conservative, think that they can sort of impact or tell other countries what to do and as to how they solve their own wars. And i just dont see that working in any way, shape or form. But hey, thats my thoughts. Or what are yours . Gbnews. Com yoursay say next though. Sirjohn gbnews. Com yoursay say next though. Sir john curtice gbnews. Com yoursay say next though. Sirjohn curtice is polling. Hes a polling expert and professor of politics at the university of strathclyde, and hell be in the political hot seat to shine a good afternoon. Welcome. If youve just tuned in, this is gb news on tv, online and on digital radio. Im nana akua, andifs digital radio. Im nana akua, and its now time for this weeks political spotlight. And joining me to shine a light is sir john curtice. Hes a polling sirjohn curtice. Hes a polling expert and professor of politics at the university of strathclyde. So thank you very much, professor. Thank you very much, professor. Thank you very much , john, for joining much, professor. Thank you very much , john, forjoining us. So much, john, forjoining us. So this is a very exciting moment actually in polling. Sorry. My actually in polling. Sorry. My computers full. Crikey. Whats happened here . Sorry my computer started but this is very exciting moment in politics. Now you famously said 99 chance labour of winning. Is that still i oh oh hang on, can i can i correct you straight away . Sorry. I said there was a 99 chance that sir keir starmer would be the next Prime Minister. That is not the same thing as the labour Party Winning, which we might want. The same thing is that not the same thing . No no, no. Okay, so let me let me walk you through it. All right. Go for it. The point is that , i right. Go for it. The point is that, i mean, usually what people mean by winning is the Party Winning an overall majority. Well, the truth is, theres quite a range of possible results that we would end up having a hung parliament, but in a hung parliament, what you need to understand is that the conservative party would be short of friends. Basically we know that neither the liberal democrats nor the snp would be willing to vote for the kings speech of a minority conservative administration. They might perhaps just about get the support of the dup. So unless the conservatives are at around 315 to 320 seats, even if theyve got more seats than laboun theyve got more seats than labour, sir keir starmer will be the next Prime Minister. Wow, that is different, isnt it . Although im reading here, this is what it says in the telegraph. Actually, labour has 99 chance of winning elections, says Professor John curtice. No, says Professor John curtice. No, no, said yeah, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. As the journalist and professor is sometimes, as the chinese whispers of twitter go along there, what you originally said sometimes gets somewhat translated, so look, we did some polling ourselves and, according to our peoples poll, labour are 27 points ahead with labour on 47 and the conservatives on 20, reform on 12 and lib dems on nine and greens are on eight. Does that roughly reflect the polling . Just tell me nana is that done since, wednesdays announcement . Yeah , ill find out for you. Yeah, ill find out for you. Ill ask them there when this was done. But what is the polling saying now . Well, broadly speaking, okay, at least im aware of four polls that have been conducted since wednesdays announcement. So as of wednesdays announcement, if you take the average of the 13 companies, including, people polling, who had, polled at some point during may, what you discovered was that on average, labour were 21 points ahead of the conservatives its quite a range at the at the lower end , range at the at the lower end, one poll put it as low as 16, but the other end, another one put it as high as 26. Now, since then, since wednesdays announcements, im at least am aware of four polls that have so far been published. And basically they do not show any significant change. 1 or 2 have the conservatives down a little bit, and then another one has them up a bit and the others have labour up a bit and other than another one has them down, crucially, and i think this perhaps the thing that were most looking for in the early polls, no immediate sign of reform. Who are the party that at the moment are taking more votes off the conservatives than anybody else . No sign of their vote being squeezed. So basically we have had now half a weeks of campaigning and its not made any difference. Thats interesting , isnt it . Because a interesting, isnt it . Because a lot of people were worried that and i think the conservatives are worried. And one of the reasons i suspect rishi pulled the election early was so that reform couldnt form and be so , reform couldnt form and be so, you know, powerful as they could be in six months time because im sure theyre probably scrabbling around to find 630 candidates for each of the seats. So i think thats a struggle, that of course, is one of the things, one of the things that well discover down the track, although the last time i saw anything about this reform were claiming to have quite a lot of candidates in place. But i mean, more broadly, we are asking ourselves, well, to what extent are reform not just simply able to fight an air war, i. E. With you in the media, but also on the ground getting leaflets through peoples doors, being able to run a canvassing operation, etc. And that were very uncertain. But and in the end, you know, i wouldnt be that surprised if reforms vote gets squeezed somewhat. But the thing here, you have to remember is this is that reform is predecessor. The brexit party did not fight conservative held constituencies in 2019. So even reform at 5 means in most of those constituencies it is reform plus five plus six plus seven, and most of it coming from the conservatives and of course that does therefore mean that reform are most likely to do damage to the conservatives in seats that the conservatives are trying to defend. Wow. Yeah, its going to be a very, very, very interesting election. I have to say. Very, very, very interesting election. I have to say. Im glued to it. Im im finding the whole thing fascinating. What about the apathy and voting apathy, because a lot of people are saying they cant work out who to vote for. So theyre not going to vote for anyone at all, or some people are going to spoil their ballots. What what do you have any polling that shows how how apathetic people are . Well, its not necessarily a question of apathy, although its certainly true that these days you have to give voters a reason to vote, fewer of us have very strong emotional attachments to labour or conservative, liberal democrat or whatever. People do have to or whatever. People do have to be persuaded to cajole to the polls. And there are a couple of polls. And there are a couple of things that we know from our experience of previous elections , particularly the general election of 2001, which is that if, first of all, people think there isnt much difference between the parties. And of between the parties. And of course, the labour party in particular has moved quite strongly towards the centre and arguably the conservative party has certainly not moved any further to the right than it was five years ago. So theres less distance between the parties now and but then secondly , if they and but then secondly, if they also conclude that the election is all over by the shouting and thats the potential impact of a 21 point lead in the opinion polls. If, of course , its polls. If, of course, its sustained through the six weeks, then both those things are known to make it less likely that people are going to go to the polls. And to that, i think we can add an additional factor, which is that neither sir keir starmer , umma nor rishi sunak starmer, umma nor rishi sunak are particularly popular for their. Neither of them are gentlemen admirable, as they are in a whole variety of ways. The word charismatic is not one that immediately associates with them the same thing is true with sir ed davey. Its true of john sweeney. North of the border. And in truth, i think its. You have to go back a very long time to think, to find a previous occasion when we had a general election where in a sense, none of the parties had a leader who was really able to communicate widely with the public. Thats undoubtedly the one of the reasons why theres a lot of interest in how much nigel farage is going to campaign for reform, because mr farage does have the ability to reach out to the electorate, or, of course, on the other side of the spectrum, you know, what impact will george galloway, who will have to try to defend his seat in rochdale, which he won in the by election how much impact he will have . We do have two people who have charisma, but of course theyre associated with relatively small parts of our political system. And people are talking about the, the muslim vote, although i know theyre not one Homogenous Group of people who all feel the same thing, but if we imagine it in that sense that their vote will have an effect, is that likely to have much impact on labour . Well, i mean, if the pattern of the local elections kicks through and of course, it may well be that some people who identify as muslim who are upset about labours stance on gaza, they might have been more willing to protest in the local elections than perhaps they will in a general election. But well in a general election. But well have to wait and see. I think at the moment we probably anticipate that. Indeed, labour advance, such as it is across the country, will perhaps be weakest in constituencies with a large number of people who regard themselves as muslims. But of course, most of the constituencies where thats the case, its already a pretty safe labour seat in most instances. So whether this will end up costing labour, even a single seat. But certainly probably not, very much so. It could be not, very much so. It could be difficult for labour. It could be embarrassing for labour, but whether or not its going to stand in their way of getting the quite substantial majority that at the moment they seem to be heading for, that doesnt seem that likely. Well, thank seem that likely. Well, thank you very much, sir john curtis, hes a polling expert and professor of politics at the university of strathclyde, very interesting. Its going to be a fascinating, few weeks or so coming up though, ill be joined by my amazing panel, broadcaster and columnist lizzie cundy and also former labour Party Adviser matthew laza.

Lib dem leader sir ed davey says his party is ready for a new parliament. The liberal democrats have got a fantastic set of policies on the health service, on the economy and on the environment.

Well hear why and how thats coming up in the next hour. Tell me what you think on everything were discussing. Send me your views. Post your comments gbnews. Com. Forward slash uk. Right. But forward slash uk. Right. But first joining me now is gb news Political Editor. Oh no. Before we do that should we do my election connection and its all gone a bit crazy around here. All right. So this is some polling that gb news our peoples poll did. And this is what we discovered. Okay. So what we discovered. Okay. So this is what we discovered. So this is what we discovered. So this is what we discovered. So this is how far ahead the labour party are apparently 47 ahead. And that is a gb news peoples poll. So were polling a lot of people who probably who watch and are participating within gb news and on gb news. So this is what people are watching this channel think. And of course, the polling is wider than that as well. Okay. Lets have a look at the conservative, the conservatives are about a 20 again. So the conservatives are about 27 points behind the labour party. So its quite serious really. The conservatives looks to me like theyll need to literally have a miracle for Something Different to happen. And lets have a look at reform now. Reform people were a lot worried that reform would take on a lot of the conservative voters. And at the moment, 12, they are at 12. That is according to our peoples poll , the liberal democrats, who poll, the liberal democrats, who have often made a big impact in many elections, appear to be behind at 9. Now, of course, they are doing they are. They have said. Ed davey said he would , join a coalition with the would, join a coalition with the labour party should the labour party need him. And then party need him. And then finally, the greens. Lets have a look at the greens party. Now theyre on 8, which is quite interesting really. And as we talked earlier, a lot of people have been saying there seems to be a conflation with the green party and the pro palestine lobby, as weve seen in some of the marches with Greta Thunberg and people like that, sort of coming on with their so called green credentials. So there we are, 8, lets speak to Political Editor tom harwood and get an update from him. So, tom, talk update from him. So, tom, talk to me. Give me an update on where we are with everything. Where we are with everything. Yeah, this is really day three of full time campaigning. Day four since the election was called on wednesday afternoon and the leaders have been out and the leaders have been out and about, rishi sunak has been to four countries of the United Kingdom. All corners of the United Kingdom. But hes made some errors in his journeys. He ended up speaking from Titanic Quarter in belfast yesterday. Now insert your own metaphor for the campaign. There also, of course, the launch when it was pounng course, the launch when it was pouring with rain. I have to tell you, standing in downing street as i was alongside our Political Editor , christopher Political Editor, christopher hope, for that speech, it was cold. It was sodden, it was not a good image and you could hear things can only get better being blasted through the street by a permanent protester named steve bray. But heres the issue that people are talking about today. 788 conservative mps elected in 2019 deciding they will not contest at this election in six weeks time. They are standing down before their constituents have a chance to boot them out. Thatis have a chance to boot them out. That is the biggest topic of conversation today and many people are asking, are they jumping before they have been pushed . Although clearly some of these individuals represent pretty safe seats for the conservative party so even if they cling on, even if those seats stay blue, theyll be different faces in parliament, in just six weeks time, itll be a pretty profound changing of the guards. For their part, the labour party is talking about the cost of living today, although they seem to have been slightly upended by questions over a commitment that keir starmer has articulated today to lower the voting age to 16. All the while, labour is backing bills to stop under 18 seconds, vaping to reduce smoking for people who are younger as well. And, lots of other inconsistencies, Big Questions over what labour considers to be a child or otherwise. But also, of course, the lib dems have been out and about and the snp launched their campaign earlier in the week as well. Its all go for a general election that is rapidly approaching. Rapidly approaching. Tom harwood is there in our studio in westminster. Thank you so much. Well, so thats whats happening. What do you think though . What are your thoughts . Though . What are your thoughts . Gbnews. Com yoursay joining me now from kent is gb news voice, neil shani louk. Neil. Neil, neil shani louk. Neil. Neil, what do you think about this then . Youve heard all of that. Our own peoples poll suggests that 47 of the people would support labour, and that those are our views. Support labour, and that those are our views. And where do you are our views. And where do you stand on what youve seen with all this electioneering . All this electioneering . When i run a charity down in kent and i try to steer well clear of politics myself, i find that voters are saying to me, andy burnham help me so ill just get on and do the work myself and not worry about whos in power. To be honest, i think the young people letting the young people think its probably a good idea. You know, theyve got a kind of a clean mind on it. Ive seen 53 years of people making mistakes in government, so i think a fresh start, give the youngsters a chance is going to be their future is a good idea. Interesting. Thank you very much neil. Thats neil shani louk. Hes our voice. Thats what he thinks right. Lets welcome again to my panel, broadcaster and columnist josie cundy. And also former labour Party Adviser matthew laza. Good afternoon. Good afternoon matthew laza. We saw your your lovely keir starmer doing his thing. He looked like hed been slightly caught unawares when he discovered that there was an election going on. Well, at least it didnt get wet, i mean, you know, rishi sunak tells us the man, hes the man with a plan. Well come off it. He isnt even the man with an umbrella. I mean, i mean, i think to be fair, even independent observers would say that, the tories havent had a very good few days because, of course, yesterday. Where did rishi sunak turn up . 7 outside the home of the titanic . In the titanic. Why did he do that . Why did he do that . I know, i mean, you want to be shooting your advisers. I think that, you know, im not sure i did everything perfectly when i was a political adviser, but i didnt do that. And then when he got on the plane, either there or back, he was pictured right in front of the exit sign. And i cannot tell you the. I used to work very closely with Neil Kinnocks daughter, who was running the event side, and i was running the broadcast side in the 2015 labour campaign, and we spent our lives trying to avoid exit signs. Every shot. I shouldnt have the exit sign in it, begging venues if they put a blanket over the exit sign. So the photographers, because thats what the photographers are always looking for. So the tories have had a bad few days. I think labours had a kind of solid start. I thought keir looked good on on wednesday when the announcement was. I think were not yet into the meat of the campaign for many of them. Lizzie cundy oh the tories, its like the rats are leaving the sinking ship. Very true, isnt it . Very true, isnt it . And , rishi actually looked and, rishi actually looked like a drowned rat himself, didnt he . And i just cant believe that image of him as he walked away , drenched through walked away, drenched through surprise. His prada suit hadnt shrunk like his own party is shrinking, with 78 leaving, look, you know why he did this is the fear of farage. He was genuinely worried about nigel. And that is why hes rushed it, and i just think, you know, they they there was that music. They they there was that music. I mean, i shouldnt laugh with. Things can only get better. But rishi knew things could only get worse. Do you think its now at number six . Do you think. Do you think that that is the truth . Because actually some people might say hes played a blinder. First of all, hes blindsided everybody. Nobody was expecting hitting his own side. Secondly. Well you know, a lot of them have been in power for a long time. So if youve been in power for 14 years, youve been held in this office for so long, some of them longer, even though they were conservatives, werent in power at that point , they may power at that point, they may still have held their seats. So some of them have been in there for, what was it, 20 years or however long. So theres a lot of them want to leave. And i think you might want to do that. But lets be honest here, he has wrong footed. In my view. Hes wrong. Wrong footed reform because reform needs to form. They havent got have they got there . I think they havent had nigel actually said you know, he was totally shocked. Hadnt got enough time for his campaign or constituency. His campaign or constituency. You know weve got under six weeks. Nigel didnt , couldnt do weeks. Nigel didnt, couldnt do it. He wanted to do it, but he just wasnt possible. Just wasnt possible. Exactly. So but hes going to spread himself all over. Hes going everywhere. Hell be campaigning. Hell be campaigning. You know what nigels like . You know what nigels like . Hes going to fight for this. And hes livid with how the tories have treated him, what theyve done to brexit and everything else. And let me tell you, theyre their own worst enemy. Im afraid the tories. But there we have. Youre saying keir starmer. Youre saying keir starmer. I mean, how Many Union Jacks are we going to see him. Are there a lot . Are there a lot . Should we take a look at some of that. Lets have a look at rishi sunak at the beginning when he did of his speech, where he sort of got drenched at the start. Take a look, take a listen. Earlier today , i spoke with earlier today, i spoke with his majesty the king to request the dissolution of parliament. The king has granted this request, and we will have a general election on the 4th of july. Yeah. So there he was. There now, this is the rally that he spoke at a little while later , spoke at a little while later, on the 5th of july, i the keir starmer i will be Prime Minister, and he has shown time and time again that he will take the easy way out and do anything to get power. If he was happy to abandon all the promises that he made to become labour leader once he got the job, how can you know that he wouldnt do exactly the same thing if he were to become Prime Minister . We conservatives have got a clear plan with bold action to secure our future. So lets take that message and that vision of a secure future to every corner of our United Kingdom. And lets show labour that the british people will never be taken for granted. British people will never be taken for granted. Yep, yep. Taken for granted. Yep, yep. I thought he certainly was a much better speech the second one than the first one. I mean, the truth of the matter is people, a lot of people zone out of politics, but theyre not zoning out of the rain incident. It keeps giving. There are so many memes on social media, people whove never thought about politics in their lives, and thinking about that. It will go down in history as one of the worst moments of political communication. But obviously hes recovered from that. Im not surprised you said hes wrongfooted nigel farage, which he did, but he looks surprised himself about the election. It was so unorganised. It was shambolic. It was a mess. Look, he even went to wales and asked how they can. Yes, that was wales arent in the euro. It was one mistake after the other. Things can only get better. As lizzie says , for the sooner as lizzie says, for the sooner get better. You said it was. You thought it was a bad speech. What about keir starmer, though . He was somewhat lacklustre, dont you think . Have a listen. Most importantly of all, we do all this with a new spirit of service country. First part second, a rejection of the gesture politics you will see in this campaign. I have no doubt from the tories and the snp. Im from the tories and the snp. Im well aware of the cynicism people hold towards politicians at the moment, but i came into politics late having served our country as leader of the Crown Prosecution Service, and i helped the Police Service in Northern Ireland to gain the consent of all communities. Service of our country is the reason, and the only reason why i am standing here now asking for your vote. So there he is asking for ones vote. I mean, look, come on, it was dull as dishwater. He would say himself. He would say himself. Look, he talks about politics. Boring. And there were two union jacks either side of him. Its on our membership card now. Were were a very patriotic party. Hes the master of the gesture. Well, look, he would say himself that hes not a bomber. Hes not, you know, hes not the hes hes not the worlds sort of most exciting speaker. But he does do is he is ready for government. He showed there that government. He showed there that hes a Prime Minister in waiting and hes brilliant on detail, which is, you know, frankly, what we need after the last few years of chaos, i think hes quite vague on detail. I think hes more vague than boris. And i dont know if you know, thats quite. And if youve read boris article, i dont know whether youve read it in the daily mail. What he says of starmer i totally agree. I think hes one of the most frightening leaders weve ever had. And ill tell you why. And ill tell you why. And ill tell you why. And you know what im going to say . Because he doesnt know what a woman is, which hes very clear now what a woman is. He has no meat on the bones. He gives no detail. I was asking people yesterday what they think of labour. You know, no one knows what they stand for, matthew. Well, and hes all oppositions have got all oppositions have got all oppositions have got all oppositions have used Election Campaigns because they get more attention. Attention. Might set their stall out. Might set their stall out. Mainwaring in dads army, you know, because he cant make a decision and were all going to be doomed. Be doomed. Im trying to work out how rishi would be. Lets see. What have you are saying . Because what do you think . Are we doomed . Are we . This is gb news on tv, online and on digital radio. Im nana akua , coming up, his royal akua, coming up, his royal roundup time. Angela levin will be here to give us the latest from behind the palace walls, lots of things on the menu. Then for the Great British debate this hour, im asking, was rishi right to call a general election . Now, ive got a pull up right now on twitter asking you that very question. Tell me what you think. So, was rishi what you think. So, was rishi sunak right to call a general election . Now cast your vote. Good afternoon. 23 minutes after 4 00, this is gb news. We are the peoples channel. Im nana akua, and its time now for the Great British debate. This hour. Great british debate. This hour. And im asking, was rishi right to call a general election . Now now, of course, this week the Prime Minister, rishi sunak, surprised us all when he told us voters will go to the polls on the 4th of july, american independence day. But his party is losing some very big names, which include communities minister michael gove and others like angela Andrea Leadsom. So like angela Andrea Leadsom. So for the Great British debate this hour, im asking, was rishi right to call an election now . Well, im joined by broadcaster emma wolf and also former labour mp Denis Macshane. All right. Mp Denis Macshane. All right. Im going to start with you, Denis Macshane. What was he right to do this so quickly . I mean, 4th of july, i genuinely think not. Just look at the few days already its been pretty much disastrous for him. Im not going to repeat all the stuff , all the gaffes in the stuff, all the gaffes in scotland, wales, everywhere. Scotland, wales, everywhere. Its all the tories now are like rats. Si king the famous , rats. Si king the famous, sinking, leaving the sinking ship for john redwood. Sinking, leaving the sinking ship forjohn redwood. You ship for john redwood. You didnt mention him and michael gove and angela leadsom, theresa may. I mean, all the architects of brexit, theyve just left the. They say so as he went to the. They say so as he went to the titanic exhibition, they left the cabin. Boy on the titanic. And hes really struggling to be fair to those ones, though, they have been with with the conservative party and held office for some time. So, you know, if youve done what, 16 or 20 years or something, after a while, you might want to naturally go, okay, all right, i accept, i accept that i fully i do, i accept that i fully i do, i accept that, but theres the morale in the tory party. We can just see it because when people leave a sinking ship, thats about morale. Now reforms got its tail up. The reform party. Labour just cant reform party. Labourjust cant believe how lucky it is. The believe how lucky it is. The greens are out there. I dont know if the lib dems are still alive anywhere in the country, but i wish them well and so i myself, the scots are going bonkers because hes telling them all to cancel their holidays and stay at home to vote. Because hes having it in the scottish holiday season. I just think myself that its a poor call, but im not sure hes made many good ones in his, year or so as Prime Minister. All right, well, lets go to emma woolf. Was he right to call a general election now . A general election now . Nana. Who can know whether he was right, whether he was in a total blind panic, whether he woke up and thought maybe the good Economic News that he had was better than it was that, you know, you get that false sense of optimism. It was all going to of optimism. It was all going to be okay. It wasnt going to rain on whenever it was monday, i dont know. Did he want his summer back . He just wanted to get it over and done with. Maybe hes just sick of the whole thing. Maybe he wants to get out to the west coast, get that great job, get the kids into school for september. Maybe, you know , september. Maybe, you know, maybe he prefers campaigning in the summer to the november rain. The summer to the november rain. I dont know. But one things for sure, though nana, i dont think labour and reform. In fact, i know for a fact from a labour mp and someone quite high up at reform, they were not expecting this and they were not ready. In expecting this and they were not ready. In fact, expecting this and they were not ready. In fact, someone at ready. In fact, someone at reform said to me, this came as a huge shock. So they were not ready. You saw that in Keir Starmers speech. He looked like a startled rabbit in the in the headlights. Yeah, he really did. But one things for sure rishi could not have planned more disasters , could he . I mean, disasters, could he . I mean, even if they had sat down and planned out how the first three days could have been total calamity jane, its gone even worse than that. But thats. But he might argue that actually the fact that hes wrong footed all of his opponents because that is the art. If you want to minimise the art. If you want to minimise the damage or maybe attempt to win if you wrong foot people in most things in sport or whatever , then you will usually have a better chance of doing better. Better chance of doing better. And its like the element of surprise. Surely that would work for him. Denis macshane i mean, everyone seems to be surprised, including perhaps even rishi. Well look dad, look at the way were all enjoyed this conversation. If it was an idea to wrongfoot anybody, hes wrong footed himself. Im trying to footed himself. Im trying to now try to strip my own feet up, and thats what hes done, look, i feel sorry for the guy. And thats what hes done, look, i feel sorry for the guy. Hes got so little experience, he doesnt understand england. He thinks that wales will be playing in the euros , he just is playing in the euros, he just is out of touch , hes lived in out of touch, hes lived in california most of his adult working life. Im sure hes a working life. Im sure hes a very nice father and a nice husband. A good man. Im not criticising him, but what was he doing . Britain is a hell of a difficult country to run. As Winston Churchill asked Margaret Thatcher asked tony blair asked David Cameron. He just wasnt , David Cameron. He just wasnt, you know, on the park, i love it, you say, you know, im not going to criticise the bloke, but what was he doing . But what was he doing . And then you explain how inexperienced he is. Listen, i, i would agree with inexperienced do you think, emma, that perhaps what has happened here to the conservative party and theres no doubt about it, they have literally collapsed. Theres no im not being partisan. I dont im not being partisan. I dont support any of them. Do you think that perhaps the issue with getting rid of boris was the wrong thing to do . The wrong thing to do . No, i dont think we can go back to the boris days. No, i dont think we can go back to the boris days. I dont think boris is going to be back, and i dont think hed be the solution right now. Solution right now. No no no no no no. But not not whether hes a solution. But do you think that they were wrong to get rid of him . Because had they done that, do you think theyd be in freefall in the way theyd be in freefall in the way they are . They are . I think the party is so divided. There are so many factions. I mean, we had the six families we had. We have more factions than you can shake a stick at. I think the almost at the stage where they need to be, you know, almost a decade out of power. I mean, it grieves me to say that because i dont particularly want labour to be in power, but i think the tories are so divided at the moment. Im not sure whether boris is the answer. A lot of people are the answer. A lot of people are against boris as well. He didnt have a lot of friends within the party. But i mean, look, tory mps are voting with their feet nearly 80, i think at the last reckoning. God knows. Check our reckoning. God knows. Check our phones probably more by now. But at the last reckoning its about 80. Theyre voting with their feet and i think the voters are going to do the same. Sadly, thats no no no no no no yes is ever available for a Labour Party Party political broadcast which shes great. We need her on on the screen rooting against the tories as well, do you think. I dont think, i dont think she was. I dont think she was saying anything against anyone. Im very carefully not wearing red or blue at the moment. But i mean, you know, really or turquoise or purple, but frankly , you know, i think i but frankly, you know, i think i think actually this is a turning point. I think actually this is a turning point. I think british think actually this is a turning point. I think british politics point. I think british politics is in an almighty mess. And thats the truth of it. Would you think so, dennis . You think were in a mess . Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely. I mean, obviously, i want my team to win, but we have to repair the country. We have to repair the country. We have to renew the country. We have to reform the country. Labours been away with so many weird dead ends in the last few years. I think keir starmer was straight, honest. Hes in experience. I think he does one thing at a time. So in that sense i prove him as pm, but my goodness, the country is divided , its demoralised, its upset, its uncertain. Putting its uncertain. Putting ourselves out of thats going to be one heck of a task. Well you know, i dont think you can blame the conservative party for all of that. The labour party backed a lot of the things that they did as well, i think politics overall is a mess, and i agree with them completely. And, and sadly, i have to say i slightly agree with Denis Macshane. Thank you very much. Emma woolf and Denis Macshane really good to talk to you both. Thank so what do you think coming up to 31 minutes after 4 00 . This is gb news. We are the peoples channel. We will continue with the Great British debate this hour.

This is gb news coming up. Royal roundup. A royal biographer, angela levin, will be live in the studio to give us the latest on behind the palace walls. But next we continue with the Great British debate this hour. And im asking was rishi right to call an election . Now ive got to pull up right now on x asking you that very question. Was rishi right to call an election . Now get in touch at gbnews. Com yoursay forward slash your say. Tell me what you think. Welcome back. If youve just tuned in. Where have you been . This is gb news. Im nana akua. Im very sweet. I dont bite, not without a good reason. Were live on tv, online and on digital radio. And its time for the Great British debate this houn the Great British debate this hour. And im asking, was the rishi sunak right to call an election now . Of course, this week he surprised us all when he told us voters that they will be going to the polls on the 4th of july, but his partys losing some big names, including communities minister michael gove, Andrea Leadsom, john redwood. Theyre all leaving, mind you, some of them have been there for a while. So for the there for a while. So for the Great British debate this hour, im asking, was he right to call that election . Well, joining me now is lizzie cundy and also matthew lazor. Lizzie cundy, im coming to you first. No he i cant understand his logic. He had six more months at least in power. And the whole start of this has been a shambolic, just appalling farce, from, from when he did, i mean, when he launched, i just cant get it out of my head and being soaked in the rain, that blaring music, its just gone from bad to w0 ise. Woise. Worse. It was when he turned his back. But when he turned the back, youve got the image of him pounng youve got the image of him pouring down. I dont know what hair gel he uses because hes hell no, he didnt move. To be fair, hes just a lot of product, doesnt he . The hair was rainproof, thats for sure. But what was he thinking . It was all disorganised. Now hes had the pictures of the exit sign asking wales about how theyre doing in the euros. Its gone from bad to worse. Gone from bad to worse. Well then, surely after that logic, he was wise to call it now because it was only going to get worse, wasnt it . I mean, that song in the background, things are. I know you couldnt, you couldnt. You couldnt make it up. You couldnt make it up. I mean, you literally, if you were scripting a comedy, you wouldnt have the kind of panoply of disasters over the last few days. It would just seem too far fetched. I think im glad he has called the election, because i think the british people want their say. They want to put it out of their misery, that the tories, they want to stop fighting amongst themselves politically. If you were kind of looking at it strategically, i think its daft. There are various things. Hes having it in the middle of the euros, in the middle of wimbledon, the University Students are back at home, which means theyre theyre ready to vote against the tories because young people at the moment, all the polls show a pretty anti tory, in the back in their home constituencies, which are more likely to be marginals. More likely to be marginals. They, and in scotland, which has gone down really badly in scotland, its the schools have already broken up and the kind of tradition in politics is you dont have elections in School Holidays because obviously a lot of people have already booked but booked their holidays. So as you said earlier, nana, i think the only possible advantage is he thinks hes blindsided everybody and hes going to run a president ial campaign. He doesnt listen and you know, everyone says rishi doesnt listen to advice. He did this. It was doesnt listen to advice. He did this. It was like a doesnt listen to advice. He did this. It was like a shock this. It was like a shock reaction, not organised. He didnt even tell the cabinet. In a panic, he looked in a panic. Hold on. I mean, first of all, thats the assumption that the labour party are going to do better that way. Youre speaking, they may do worse. I think the polls will tighten. Certainly they may do worse. But secondly, look, hes called it now , okay. By the 5th of it now, okay. By the 5th of july, its going to be sunny. Ideally therell be lots of boats coming. Yes. Keir starmer can put to practice his Border Control or whatever it is, he said. And then keir starmer will be dealing with the small boats crisis. Absolutely i dont think that thats a stupid idea for him to do that. Hes done that now lets see what keir starmer Keir Starmers come out with his Border Control bill. Youre correct. Youre correct. Because thats one of the reasons why she did this. Because he knows when that, you know, warmer weather comes. Theyre going to be even more boats coming over. Now. This is going to be starmers problem and i absolutely you matthew. How is he going to deal with it . Because no , i could do the five because no, i could do the five point plan. I can do the five point stop the boats plan. I mean, i think youve got a six point plan. This is six points overall. Matthew, you ask me this, why is starmer backing out of doing this debate . So hes not. No no no no i know i spoke to them. I spoke to them yesterday. Hes absolutely because i was involved in the debate negotiations in 2015 when David Cameron wouldnt do a single debate with ed miliband as leader. He just refused to do any of them. And theyre only between opposition parties. What labour said it will do several debates. Its not prepared to do six because they meet every week at Prime Ministers questions and it just takes up all of the campaign. But its absolutely hes absolutely prepared to debate him. But to me, this is some sort of performance , performative of performance, performative nonsense and actually allows him to evade giving description or detail for his policies. I would rather he sat down and said, im going to do this, im going to do that, and im going to do that, and this is how im going to do it. I would like them all to do it. I would like them all to do it. I would like them all to do that. Actually. I want i dont want them to play silly boy, boy girl silly, you know, silly banter between them, which is what i feel these debates become. And who can put an absolutely the big interviews of the campaign. I mean already to be fairto i mean already to be fair to them all, theyve all been out. Theyve all been out and about. Some of them spoken to gb news some, and other channels. So i think we need to see a lot more of that of really of all the parties of the good old art of the political interview. I do think, though, the debate is all bands, the debate rishi will win. I think thats his only saving grace. I do think because starmer show his true colours, hes got no personality. I mean watching him in there, you fall millom youve got to have ed davey and john swinney, some of them past, they have been real vote winners. I mean remembering back to nick clegg and true go back to nixon and you know and kennedy kennedy. And that was a real game changer. Kennedy. And that was a real game changer. And i think youre game changer. And i think youre absolute nixon was sweating and he didnt have. But i think nana you want a mixture. So labour is committed to doing debate. Its committed to doing debate. Its committed to doing big interviews. Its committed to going around the country. Its not just about lets see if they commit to do something on gb news. Im sure they will. Our viewers have said in their peoples poll, 47 of them have said that they i you know, im sure well be seeing a lot of. So you might have too much. So you might have too much. So you might have too much. Keir on gb news to see keir starmer also coming on to gb news. And because the gb news views are perfectly decent people. People. Oh, absolutely. Oh, absolutely. And im not having him. Not. And im not having him. Not. Come on. No, no. Come on. No, no. Why is he not doing that. Why is he not doing that. Let me. Let me. Well i was just going to say ispeak well i was just going to say i speak to leigh harris because this shows nothing without you and your views. Lets welcome our Great British voice. Your opportunity to be on the show and tell us what you think about the topics were discussing. Were going to bristol. The map is back. The map is back. Its back. Lets speak to leigh harris. Leigh was, was rishi sunak right to call the general election. Now, i think he was right to call a general election, but i think hes nuts for calling on the 4th of july. The optics of the 4th of july. The optics of the announcement was terrible. As we all know. You know, as we all know. You know, whoever advised him, whoever advised him to call an early election are probably the same idiots who advised him to go and stand outside in the rain without a brolly. I mean, he really was an actual tory wet nana. It looked ridiculous. I got what i personally would have waited. I was all in on a november election because it would give the economy more time to improve and Interest Rates to come down, you know, maybe even send a few flights to rwanda if you believe you will. And im not sure anyone actually does. And i think he did it mainly because he wanted to put reform on the back foot , which it on the back foot, which it clearly has. You know, farage has openly admitted it doesnt give him enough time to prepare to run as an mp, which i think will have a Significant Impact on people who vote for reform or not likely to now, i think. But, you know, now im forced to make a decision. Nana i am really torn. Nana i am really torn. Nana i am really torn. I am livid with the tories, you know, im livid with the tories. They do not deserve my vote after what theyve done. But i, the labour party, utterly terrified me, especially with a stonking majority. The amount of damage they could do in a single term is quite significant. You know, slippery starmer is just just confirmed hes going to lower the voting age. Well yeah. Yeah. Well yeah. Yeah. 16. 16. Yeah. Well he may find that that might not work out for him because a lot of people might complain about that because that to me feels like a way of securing your position because younger people are more likely to vote for that. And to me, that comes across as a slight. I dont think thats right. I dont think thats right. I dont think thats right. I dont think he should be allowed to do that. Thats changing it for the electorate, and he needs to have a referendum. Whether hes allowed to do that or not. I dont think thats something he should make a decision on at all. But leigh harris, thank you so much for your thoughts. Really good to talk to you. Thats leigh harris. Can i say that leigh looks like keir starmer with his flag. Im gonna count how Many Union Jacks starmer is going to be standing next to. Yeah. Yeah. Let me tell you my Difficult Conversations , model sasha conversations, model sasha bailey will be here live to talk about his transition on non transition. Thank goodness. But next, angela levin will be here to give us the latest from behind the just 47 minutes after 4 00. Welcome to gb news. If youre just tuned in. Welcome. Im nana akua. Now. Theres always something going on in the royal household, and this week has been no different to the. Every saturday. I love to give you a rundown. And who better to do so than royal biographer angela levin . Angela, its been a busy old time for the royals, hasnt been a very busy old time. I thought i would start with prince william. He was doing the third of the three garden parties that were going on, and it was pouring with rain for the king charles. It was beautifully sunny. This was pouring with rain, and you think it would be very sad . Its not with his wife. I thought he did a brilliant job because he got all his cousins together. Brilliant job because he got all his cousins together. They all his cousins together. They all dressed up absolutely beautifully and they were very keen to be friendly and chatting. They even were chatting round to everyone. It doesnt mean theyre going to have an important place within the royal family when he takes over, but it was just very nice and zara, i thought, looked stunningly beautiful with a pink hat, white dress with pink buttons on. She looked absolute lovely and she and beatrice looks damn absolutely gorgeous. And i thought that these two are very happily married and theyre blossoming and they look wonderful. So it was very nice. It was very good. And it saved him from looking to be all alone i oh, oh, very good at that, isnt he . Yes. He doesnt, he doesnt. He . Yes. He doesnt, he doesnt. He hides it. He hides it. He hides it. He hides it really well. And he does his his role nicely. Now, what about the awful trolling that catherines been receiving . Yes, that is just some of it is. It is terrible. And i have to say that a few of them are from meghans friends. Im not. She had anything to do with it. You think its part of the sussex squad, the sussex squad and saying, you know , other and saying, you know, other people go to work when theyre having all the tests and looking, you know, having the medication. Medication. But shes not, you know, so thats what theyre saying. So these , these trolls, what so these, these trolls, what kind of thing are they saying that shes not going to work even though shes 9 million women have , cancer a year, women have, cancer a year, nearly all of them carry on going to work, but she doesnt. Going to work, but she doesnt. But, you know, shes taking advantage of her position. Well, advantage of her position. Well, he doesnt know how. She she doesnt know what sort of medication shes having. I thought it was so spiteful , thought it was so spiteful, awful. And actually, what was worth seeing this terrible painting in, in tatler that made her, you know, it looked nothing like her. And it was a bit like a sort of spinster headmistress. Wouldnt that have been a nice. That picture was meant to be a nice picture of her tatler, but it wasnt great, was it . I mean, not great. It was absolutely terrible. Look nothing like her. Weve got the picture up on the screen. Take a look. I think i could have potentially drawn her better than that. Yes, but she looks very tight laced. And which. Which catherine isnt. And she looks very sort of serious and bossy. Well, the face doesnt look like a face. No, no. Well, anyone could do a white dress. You know, it just looks, if she had worn one. But that looked very similar, but not much credit for that. Similar, but not much credit for that. The whole thing similar, but not much credit for that. The whole thing is capturing the face. And King Charless captured with the face, his own face with the red painting. It looked just like painting. It looked just like him. You could work out his characteristics , but with. I characteristics, but with. I thought it was very sorry. And i think especially for women when theyre having this sort of treatment, that they feel very down about themselves, they feel they dont look right. Obviously theyre not made up and all that. And, you know, its not a time when you want to see a picture and think, oh my goodness , is this what . People goodness, is this what . People look nice. That will look nice. Thats not a great picture. Now, what about the elections . Because it seems that the king and everything is moving because of it. And weve got a lot of royal engagements and things that happen at this time. Yes. Well, you know, it means that he has to take more time and be at home. He cant go to all the things he wants to do. Hes been doing five a day, which is probably made camilla a bit cross, but what they still hopeis bit cross, but what they still hope is that they can get the japanese emperor and empress over. Japanese emperor and empress over. Thats japanese emperor and empress over. Thats in july, japanese emperor and empress over. Thats in july, that they over. Thats in july, that they can go to france for the 80th anniversary of the, fighting. Anniversary of the, fighting. And he will be able to do 1 or 2 things at ascot. Hes very keen to do now , those arent things to do now, those arent things that are political in any way. And if people complain about the japan, problem , i think that japan, problem, i think that actually if you have the head of all the, types, you know, the, tories as all of them, then you feel that its all right. Nobodys getting any special treatment. So i think that will be that will be good. I just want to talk about harry and, charless argument where harry said he didnt want to stay. He wanted to go to a hotel, and its come out now that actually , its come out now that actually, he. King charles is believed that he was , put into offered that he was, put into offered saint jamess and princess annes stays there and beatrice stays there. And this was for when harry came over for his came over. Yeah, exactly. And the policemen are wandering around with guns and theres no chance of actually there being any problem there. So the fact that he said that it wasnt safe for him was not actually, a very sensible thing to say, i dont think. Well, he went to nigeria and thatis well, he went to nigeria and that is in the world ranking. Its ranked as quite a dangerous place. Yes , one of the dangerous yes, one of the dangerous places in the world. So that was again, i thought, being cruel and rejecting something because its next door to where the king lives. And he could have popped in at any time. It would have been much more easier, much easier for both of them. But they didnt want that. But now theyve been. Harry and meghan have been invited to go to ghana , and i think, you know, they cant actually go all the way around the commonwealth and pretend that theyre running it.

Now, what happens when a young person changes their mind about undergoing a gender transition . Well, my next gender transition . Well, my next guest is a 29 year old man who believed himself to be a transgender woman. Now, he had made plans to transition after a single meeting at a gender clinic in japan. The former model and son of the famous fashion photographer david bailey, he said that hes happy to be alive after deciding against gender reassignment. So im very pleased to say that im joined now in the studio by sasha bailey. Sasha bailey, welcome. Thank you for having welcome. Thank you for having me. Really good to talk to you. So you are the son of legendary david bailey . Yes. But people would think your life and world must have been amazing growing up with him as a father. What was it . Was that like growing up when you were younger . It was great. Hes a fantastic father, but i do think there were certain parts of manhood that were left out for me. And as we see that kind of in society, that is something thats growing more and more with young men that there is they may have father figures, they may have fathers around them. But it wasnt exactly the father who would have taken me fishing or done kind of traditional masculine things. We played chess together. We talked about kind of forts and things like that. We watched movies together, but, we didnt fill in a lot of the roles of kind of masculinity. And we see that now with kind of a lot of the men coming out who are taking these talking points and are taking kind of salient talking points that young men need to hear, but are using it for their own benefit and are using it to gain things. But people would say that, you know, someone with such a, you know, someone with such a, you know, someone with such a, you know, obviously you would have had advantages your father wouldnt have been short of a few bob. He was, you know, filming famous people, famous models, people like naomi campbell. Hes got them all. People used to say that i looked a bit like her. Okay. Its lies. I appreciate that, but the people who like me. But people would say that you must have had, like, such a great life growing up. Why would you feel lacking or needing of anything at all . I think that thats an illusion. Thats that people look on something and they always think the grass is greener. They dont quite understand what the reality of living like that is. I mean, as someone who grew up in that position and then trying to go into the major work force, you are scorned at, you are there is are scorned at, you are there is a certain level of bigotry. Famous kids are expected to be complete wrecks or famous. Complete wrecks or famous. Theyre not expected to go and do normal things. When you go into kind of white collar work, you you do find often that you have some form of actual discrimination for doing that. So for me, ive always worked towards building my own thing, making sure that i work independently to make sure that im not kind of pigeonholed into that. I spent an extensive amount of time in japan. While i amount of time in japan. While i was there. I built one of the biggest art shows, digital art shows i built, kind of helped build a movement and pioneer in web three. And all of these things are unrelated to my family , but if when every time family, but if when every time i try to work in like a normal space, it became quite difficult because everyone would say, oh, youre david baileys son, or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Exactly. I actually my favourite places to work up until doing things for myself was bar work and doing kp work, because there i was, on the same level as everyone else. Everyone treated me the same way because it didnt matter where i came from, it didnt matter who i was. Everyone was there to achieve the goal and just graft. So you. So you must almost think when somebody says, oh, youre the son of david bailey, and they introduce you the way i did and mentioned it, theres a bit that goes, sake woman, as i said in tokyo , i was introduced said in tokyo, i was introduced on multiple National News networks as sasha bailey, founder and ceo of the ba. 2 and blockchain exchange. Blockchain exchange. So for me, casting off that shadow has already happened. So shadow has already happened. So right now being introduced as such is thats fine. Well, youre probably pretty proud of him anyway, i should imagine. Of course. And so what was it of course. And so what was it you talked initially about . The fact that there werent many sort of masculine things that you did. Some people might say , you did. Some people might say, well, gender dysphoria is not about masculinity. Its about how you feel inside. What do you think it was that led you to then go from feeling that to then go from feeling that to then looking to change your gender . Because thats a big leap, isnt it . Yeah. Well, exactly. I mean, i, i had gender dysphoria and sense dysphoria, i guess, since i was very young, growing up. And it was it came in bounce. So i think im a person who was predisposed to this sort of thing. And then the situation i was in, in japan was kind of highly abusive. And towards the end of it, it seems it was almost it was almost something that kind of helped me get out of the situation i was in, not because of the transgenderism. Because of the transgenderism. She was actually weirdly fine with that, because i was able to change my way of thinking and get out of a box that i was stuck in, and theres so many people stuck in that kind of abusive mindset, that abusive kind of cage. They put themselves in where they believe that they cant get out of something because of extenuating circumstances. Or for instance, like me, because you need to look after that person and you feel like without them youd be lost. Even theyd be sorry. Without you, they would be lost. Without you, they would be lost. And even though theyre abusing you, you want to help them. You want to do everything you can for them. For them. So you found yourself in quite an abusive situation in japan , and you had those japan, and you had those feelings of not being masculine enough. Yeah. I mean, that was something that was challenged on me all the time. All the time. You were feeling that. So, so, so you then thought, well, maybe i should be a woman. Well, yeah. I mean, it was a way of getting out in a way. Maybe subconsciously it was a way of all of those things that were being thrown at me was suddenly, invalid. You know, i didnt have to use the gender knees line. I didnt have to adhere to heteronormative values anymore. So i was able to suddenly fight back in a lot of ways that i wasnt able to. And then, events happened and other circumstances didnt. I fled japan and thankfully came back to england , but it helped me to england, but it helped me again realise how what the situation really was because it was so, so untenable that instead of being able to change my environment, i tried to change myself. I see how far did you go then with this . So i was, wearing makeup, wearing , nails, wearing. I was wearing, nails, wearing. I was wearing, nails, wearing. I was wearing a body shaping corset underneath my clothes all the time for about 2 or 3 months so that i dont know what sort of damage that might have done to me. But youre definitely not supposed to be wearing it as much as i was. But yeah, i was on the edge of kind of telling people what my preferred pronouns would have been. However i even when i was going to transition, i was never super sold on the idea that anyone should have to refer to you as anything they dont want to, but yeah, i came came incredibly close. So. And but then why did you so. And but then why did you not have the surgery . I didnt have a well, so i was prescribed hrt. And then when i came back to england , i when i came back to england, i had the time to think about it. And also the slowness of the nhs, ironically, was quite useful in all of that. Yeah. And just time to think about it. And also i met someone who kind of did what a lot of psychiatrists say to do, especially whether someone will end up transitioning or not, which is to mirror them back to make sure that they understand what they are saying. So for me, it was talking about, okay, well, i want to take this hrt medicine and then what . And its like, okay, well then my fat will redistribute, distribute. Ill be more feminine and ill start to grow, female anatomy and ill be infertile. And someone repeated that back to me, just repeated that back to me, just repeated exactly what i said. And then for me, that was kind of a lightning bolt moment. I actually just started laughing. I started laughing because i realised kind of the absurdity of what i was actually saying out loud. And again, its important to say that this was my decision and it was right for me , for other people. What might me, for other people. What might make them happy or what might be the right decision might be Something Different. But i do think that my story would definitely speak volumes to anyone under the age of 18 or 19 thinking about doing this is not someone who would be able to understand that sort of stuff. So do you think then, that the way people are affirming peoples gender pronouns and all of this is dangerous . Of this is dangerous . I think that theres a mix. Its important that people are kind because these are people who are going through for whatever reason, some of the biggest turmoil of their lives. Some of them may be suicidal as as i was before. Some of them may be having some seriously hard times and kindness always is going to get through to them more. If you run up to people misgender them, thats not going to get through to someone. If were actually talking about saving lives , were talking saving lives, were talking about helping people. Its more useful to talk within the framework which theyre going to listen you to. And if you can be right and still talk within that framework, that will get through to someone in a really powerful way. No, no. You talked about the fact that you said you felt suicidal and did you attempt to take your life . I did, yeah, yeah. And since then, well, everything since then, well, everything since then has been extra, like, its i came incredibly close , i i came incredibly close, i didnt because i was, it was in a the house had very few places to put something from, so i was in a bath. Yeah. No. Sorry. Too much. Yeah we dont really talk about the nature of which, but its more your thinking. Yeah. My thinking, my thinking that led me there was. Because again , the relationship because again, the relationship i was in was so nasty. But i felt obligated to this person because of their personal difficulties. So i felt in that moment that was the only way out for me. And then, you know, the for me. And then, you know, the real, transitioning stuff started kind of after that. So you could say that me wanting to transition was a way of doing that without doing it, what do you think . How do you think we can help young people who feel that theyre in the wrong bodies . That were. I dont like that phrase wrong body because your body is your body. Whatever body you had, it belongs to you. Thats the one thing that is yours. Yeah. So i how do you think we can help young people . I would say , mirroring them i would say, mirroring them if theyre talking about doing it as one is a big part of it. And but also theres a lot of things going on in society which especially for young boys , are especially for young boys, are not great. Theres no incentives, before we came on, we briefly mentioned , 80s we briefly mentioned, 80s movies. And if you look back at the 80s, theres so many male role models, and they werent just doing films, they werent just doing films, they werent just being action heroes. You know, mr t did all of those kind of, after School Specials and these, these kind of older men who could be, role models were going around doing stuff and they were allowed to be men and they were allowed to be men and they were allowed to be men and they were celebrated for it, whereas now we have this problem whereas now we have this problem where were pushing anyone with that sort of pro mens view is being pushed away to the point where we end up with people like andrew tate taking control of conversation. Yeah, yeah. And when youre there, then, you know, he sounds like hes making a lot of sense, but he makes sense in what hes saying. But his solutions dont make any sense at all. The solutions is give me money. Exactly. Yeah. It is. Money. Exactly. Yeah. It is. Yeah. Its i dont think youre going to get much from giving a man. Youre not going to get rich giving a man money. Thats how he makes his money. Yeah, hes gone. Hes gone quite quiet now. I think hes been still still under arrest or whatever has happened to him, so what are you up to now . Because i know youre a ceo and youve been doing lots of things. Im actually working on a book, about the subjects and about kind of my thoughts on on this whole kind of topic. So, now thats kind of the next stage for me is writing a book. When do you hope to have that ready . Sunday people. Well, i would hope. I dont want to say for sure. It takes a long time, but i would hope within the next eight months to a year. But well see what the publisher thinks. That might be too soon. Well, listen, it will be. I know for sure that itll be a fascinating read. Its really good to talk to you. And thank you so much for coming in. A lot of people will be listening to what youve said, and i hope that thats helped quite a few people. I hope so too. Sasha bayley, thank you very much.

Still to come by mini debates after an employment tribunal found calling a woman frumpy was discrimination. Then ill be discrimination. Then ill be asking, has woke culture gone too far . But next its time for the Great British debate. This hour im asking, should 16 year olds be given the right to vote . Good afternoon. Its just coming up to 22 minutes after 5 00. This is a gb news. Where live on tv, online and on digital radio. Im nana akua. Tv, online and on digital radio. Im nana akua. Dont forget as im nana akua. Dont forget as well, you can stream the show live on youtube. But its time now for the Great British debate this hour. And im asking, should 16 year olds be given the right to vote now . Sir keir right to vote now . Sir keir starmer today he confirmed his plans to lower the voting age to include 16 and 17 year olds. Now here is the argument that he set out earlier, speaking to reporters on the campaign trail in the west midlands. I want to see 16 and 17 year olds voting. They can go out and work. They can serve in our armed forces. And of course, if they are out and working, they pay they are out and working, they pay tax and therefore they should have a say over how the money theyre paying in is being used. So yes, i want to see that vote for 16 and 17 year olds. If you can work, you can pay tax, you can work, you can pay tax, you can work, you can pay tax, you can serve in your armed forces. Then you ought to be able to vote. Well, he potentially would say that, wouldnt he . So for the Great British debate this houn the Great British debate this hour, im asking, should 16 year olds be given the right to vote . Well, im joined now by political commentator Stephen Carlton woods , former member of carlton woods, former member of the youth parliament, zara khan, political commentator alex petropolis and political commentator Anna Mcgovern. Well, i can start with you, Anna Mcgovern. Do you think that 16, mcgovern. Do you think that 16, 17 year olds should be given the right to vote . I dont believe so because 16 and 17 year olds, they are children and i dont think that we should be letting children be involved in in actually voting involved in in actually voting in the general election. I think as well, what i do believe is we should absolutely believe is we should absolutely be bringing political education into schools, educate young people in the Voting Systems, in getting engaged into politics. But young people, they still have to be in education up until the age of 18. And i think lets like i think actually involving them in the general election, i think is too soon. Leave it at 18 when they are adults and are politically informed to do that. Why do you think alex, he is doing this then . Because surely as anna says, young people dont really. At 16, 17 i didnt have a clue what was going on, to be honest. Even now im struggling to work out what these parties are doing. But alex, what do you think, why do you think that this is the right thing to be doing . Doing . I do think this is the right thing to be doing. Im not necessarily going to push back on the fact that when people are 16 and 17, they know less. But i think the first way, the best way to get people involved in the political system, to get people engaged, is to actually give them something to do with it, give them a vote. If you give people a vote, they will suddenly say, well, ive got this. Ive got this amazing privilege. Now im going to privilege. Now im going to actually do research and figure out what to do with it. And i think the argument that young voters are uninformed doesnt really go that far because, to be honest, voters across the age groups across the uk dont engage with politics that much at all. And so we dont take away their votes because they arent they dont research enough about the labour party manifesto. They havent watched enough news this year. We still give them. And if youre going give them. And if youre going to engage with our society, you should be able to have a say in it. Well, yeah, but what do you know . Lets be honest, by that age youve probably not had any children. Not that you would have at 18, but youve never really most young people at that age of majority havent been paying age of majority havent been paying bills, so dont really understand the real currency of currency, because when youre doing that, like my daughter, shes 15, i doing that, like my daughter, shes15, i would hate to doing that, like my daughter, shes 15, i would hate to see her having the power to vote at the age of 16. I go off and buy a stuff and she just expects me to just carry on providing more and more. She doesnt get it. So what do you think, stephen . Am i on the wrong track here . No. No. Well, im a little bit older than the rest of the guests here. How old are you . How old are you, stephen . How old are you . How old am i . Im coming up to 60 in october. Oh, youre looking good on it. Youre looking good. All right, carry on. You are the oldest. Yes, i do, i do remember when i was a youngster and i was, i was all for youngsters having a vote. But ive been involved in politics for a long time now, and ive seen young people engaging in politics and also, we take on students at a Radio Station that im involved with as well. So ive seen a lot come through the system over the years. So i agree with some of the comments ive heard , and i the comments ive heard, and i do think we should be engaging young people in politics, but i dont think its right to have them voting at 16, the law was changed, last year for marriage. So you cant get married before 18. Now so theres a reason behind that, and i would even go as far to say that they should put the voting age back to 21. Yeah. You say, do you think, stephen, that perhaps he should if he wants to do Something Like that, which some could argue hes actually almost sort of. Well, in a way, half interfering with the vote, because at the end of the day, we know that a lot of young people are more likely to be left leaning. Do you think Something Like that should be via referendum if he really wants to do Something Like that . Well, i dont think so. I dont think you should change anything now. Weve the people have been given the vote. I dont think you should take it away from them, and i think really its wise to leave it as it is. Weve had a study done actually, in recent months about this , and it came across quite this, and it came across quite strongly, really. The appetite and the, for the country was to leave it as it is. Dont mess with something thats not broken. Zara khan, youre a former member of the youth parliament, so youll probably be very up on this. What do you think, zara , i this. What do you think, zara, i think that politicians just need to be brave, be bold. Take the decision to lower the voting age to 16. The best time is to do it now so that we can move forward as a society. When i debated this topic in the house of commons with other youth mps , i saw that its youth mps, i saw that its really essential to lower the voting age because were we were already deeply involved in society. Vie, if we can work society. Vie, if we can work part time jobs, if we can pay taxes, if we can serve in the army, then why cant we have a say in what happens in our future . We need to have a voice in electing the leaders who can make decisions that impact our future, and when i was a youth mp at the age of 16, i met with my local mp and i saw that he took the time to meet with me to listen to my ideas. So it showed that if politicians can take, the time to engage with young people and the community, then this is a step forward, in, in showing that young people , young showing that young people, young peoples voices should be heard. Yeah, but but but sorry , yeah, but but but sorry, youre the exception rather than the rule. Lets be honest here, because most young people arent as informed as you. But not only that, i worry that theyll use tiktok or other social media to manipulate the vote. And therell be so many of them as well. That to me, Anna Mcgovern sounds more like it because my daughter at a 15, almost 16 year old will be doing just that. Doing this , doing these tiktok doing this, doing these tiktok dance, this, this, this, that and the other. And then, you know, telling all her friends and then theyre all doing it. What do you think, anna . Am i wrong . No youre not. And i was also a member of Uk Youth Parliament and formally when i was 17. So i was probably the exception to other young people my age where i was politically active and getting involved, trying to learn about the political systems around me. But i was very different when i was 16 and 17 to what i am now like for example, i supported the liberal democrats when i was that age , democrats when i was that age, and i definitely say i do not have the same values as i did when i was that age. I think for young people, there are so many ways that you can get involved and get your voice heard and ways that you can influence policies. For example, like the Uk Youth Parliament i thought was a fantastic way to get young peoples voices heard. However, peoples voices heard. However, most young people arent involved in politics. They dont understand the political systems around them that is partly because it is not educated like young people are not educated about this in schools, which i think is important. Get young people involved. But i think people involved. But i think leave it to adults. At 18, you are an adult and you should have the right to vote by then. But i think giving children the right to vote, i think its too soon. All right. Well, listen , i all right. Well, listen, i will leave it there. Anna mcgovern, thank you very much. But what im going to say is im going to ask you all a yes or no. Then going to ask you all a yes or no. Then im going to start with you, Anna Mcgovern. Should young people then be given the right to vote . Yes or no . 16. No. To vote . Yes or no . 16. No. Yeah. At 18 you should be given the right to vote, but not 16 or 17. Stephen carlton woods. No, no. Alex petropolis. No. Alex petropolis. Yes. Theyve done it in greece. Theyve done it in other countries. And those countries are operating fine. Theyre electing centre right governments as well. So its not like its a labour ploy. And sadiq khan yes or no . Yes or no . Absolutely yes. Scotland and wales have lowered the voting age. Just yes or no. Just yes or no. They cheated. I did pull them all up on it. So i have to do it with you as well. Sorry thank you very much. Zara khan. Also Anna Mcgovern, alex petropolis and also Stephen Carlton woods. Thank you for your thoughts. So what do you your thoughts. So what do you think at home as you listen to that . Do you think that young people should be given the vote from 16 to 17 . I think if a politician is making such a change to the voting structure, i would actually say thats something that should be a referendum for the public to decide whether, in fact, he should even be doing that. But what do you think . Gb news gbnews. Com forward slash youll say, youre with me. Im nana akua. We are live on tv, online and on digital radio.

Nana. Thank you. Ray. Coming up in my mini debate after an employment tribunal found calling a woman from peoples discrimination, im asking, has woke culture gone too far . But next well continue with the Great British debate this hour. And im asking, should 16 year olds be given the right to vote . Good afternoon. Its just coming up to 37 minutes after 5 00. This is gb news. We are the peoples channel. Were live on tv, online and on digital radio. Im nana akua. And its time now for the Great British debate this hour. And im asking, should 16 year olds and above be given the right to vote at 16 and 17 year olds . So keir starmer confirmed today that his plan he plans to lower the voting age to include 16 and 17 year olds. Here is his argument. This is what he set out earlier to reporters on the campaign trail in the west midlands. I want to see 16 and 17 year olds voting. They can go out and work. They can serve in our armed forces. And of course, if they are out and working, armed forces. And of course, if they are out and working , they they are out and working, they pay they are out and working, they pay tax and therefore they should have a say over how the money theyre paying in is being used. So yes, i want to see that used. So yes, i want to see that vote for 16 and 17 year olds. If you can work, you can pay tax. If you can serve in your armed forces, then you ought to be able to vote. I wonder if that means that if you dont work and you dont pay if you dont work and you dont pay tax, you shouldnt be allowed to vote. If we follow that logic through. So for the Great British debate this hour, im asking , should 16 year olds im asking, should 16 year olds be given the right to vote . Well, lets see what my panel maker that im joined by, former labour Party Adviser matthew laza and also broadcaster and columnist lizzie cundy the other way around. But its fine, i just, i did what i was going to say. I went first for a check. I went first for a check. No, you thought, oh my god, i have hair. I thought, yes, i do. Later, later matthew laza lets start with you because you are a labour man as i am. And yeah. And yeah. And yeah. And yeah. And this great leader that suggesting that. Yeah. Well, its actually been a labour policy for a while. It was a labour policy all the way back in 2015 as well. And i think its a very, very good idea. And because what is, what the evidence shows from where its been done, and this is absolutely crucial , is it is absolutely crucial, is it gives young people the voting habit. We dont mind who they vote for, but we as they go out. But we all want people to be involved in their democracy. So all the evidence shows that if you if you give people votes at 16, they get the voting habit. In the Scottish Referendum , 75 in the Scottish Referendum, 75 of which when people were given votes at 16 people between 16 and 18, 75 of them voted. But the next group , the 1824 year the next group, the 1824 year olds, 54 voted. And a lot of this is because, because living at home, they go with their parents, because they know that younger people are more likely to be left wing. Well they werent they werent, they werent. I mean, i remember im old enough to remember during the, you know, during the iraq war when young people began to hate the labour party and all flocked to the lib dems, then this is now and but you, but you but its actually the right thing to do. And look at the list of countries that have done it. Austria has done it. Brazil has done it. And then closer to home, the isle of man, jersey and guernsey have done it. Yeah, but but that should be done yeah, but but that should be done i think by referendum. I am shocked and horrified that 16 year olds could be given the vote. I totally am. I totally am. And matthew, this is why people are in the political wilderness, because we have to listen to this clown saying things that i think i will call him that because this is another, you know, look at me. The progressive thinking party, actually, what six year old has life . You know, skills and know how he should vote or she should vote. I just think they they they suddenly get it at 18. They, they havent got the, the, the whole of their life skills experience. They havent got it. But if you life skills experience. They havent got it. But if you and if you, you know, im sorry most 16 year olds i know wouldnt want this vote. Wouldnt want that responsibility. What are they going to . Their mums will have to drive them to the ballot box and, you know, pack them up, pack lunch on the way. It doesnt make sense. It does make sense. It is it does make sense. It is because it gives those the young. Because it gives because the younger will vote. Because it gives people, it gives people the habit. And thats the crucial thing. 97 of those who voted, who were between 16 and 17 in scotland, have said that they would vote again. So its all about giving again. So its all about giving young people the vote. And yes, we ask people to die for our country. We ask people to pay taxes, no taxation without representation. I think thats the american revolution. Said, how about in some . I think its australia where you have to vote. Yes. So im in favour of that. So im in favour of that. Perhaps instead of doing that you should be almost laws that you should be almost laws that you have to vote. Even if you spoil your ballot, you should have to vote. Im half australian, ive got an australian passport and i, i think thats the way forward here. This sounds like somebody manipulating a Voting System because they know theres no. But the tories have no, no, no theyve got form on their finish. Sorry. Let me finish. It does sound as though this is somebody who is, if most people were more likely to be right wing when they were younger, i dont think sir keir starmer will be that impressed. Why doesnt he call a referendum something . Because that is a complete its a good question because you because its because on this level of change in the electoral system, yes, the tories have just the tories introduced photo id, which nobody called for, even tories like Jacob Rees Mogg dont believe they changed the Voting System for every Mayoral Election that weve just had in may. But no, it is changing. It is absolutely. And its happened the same and its happened in scotland and wales for local elections for and the scottish and welsh parliament, and that hasnt happened. Well, i think if youre in scotland and wales, the parliament habit with local elections , you know that this elections, you know that this isnt right. You know hes doing this just because you own your post because you own your post because hell damage the right, the, the Younger Generation are more likely to vote. Labour because theyre mainly woke bngade because theyre mainly woke brigade and they will vote for him. That is the reasoning why hes doing this. Him. That is the reasoning why hes doing this. Do you know it . No. Its about making a better society. Ive got the life skills to vote. I would be horrified if im thinking six year olds are voting because they havent your full, you know, frontal cortex of your brain isnt fully developed. Well, then we shouldnt ask them to pay taxes. Well, then we i mean, do you want to raise the voting age to 25 . Should we go and let them all buy alcohol as well . Shall we . You know. No, i mean, no, we are saying is you can work. The key thing is at 16, we all know why hes doing this. At 16, you can be. And we all know why people are opposing it. Because the people on the right of politics oppose it because theyre worried about the left. Im in favour of it because its the right thing to do to get young people into the voting habit. I trust our young people responsibilities on 60 year old shoulders. They could do local elections , as you said, like you said. But hang on. But i dont think they should be in a general election only simply because they are not equipped with the skills to do that. All right. Listen, i have a 15 year old whos almost 16. They will manipulate the system with tiktok and all the other stuff. And before you know it, theyll be theyll be. Theres not the same for 18 year olds as well. No they havent, theyve but they can work full time. Well lets see mostly theyre mainly they havent they havent got they havent they havent got the life skills. Well listen, this shows nothing without you and your views. Lets welcome our Great British voices, their opportunity to be on the show and tell us what they think about the topics were discussing. There are two of you. Im going to start with david barr. Oh, no, im going to start with brian doogan in solihull. Brian hi, nana. How you doing . Im good. Yeah, i found it interesting there. The discussion where someone can have the Life Experience to vote when theyre 18, but they dont have that Life Experience when theyre 17. Well, its amazing what these 17 year olds must do then to gain that, were a Life Experience by the time theyre 18. Well, lets start with 16. Well, i dont think it is lets. Because theres a whole world away from being 15 to 16 to 16 to 17. Things happen at different ages. What about 16, then . 16 is too young. Have you got children, brian . But sorry , sorry, its 16 and 17. I thought was the debate. I thought was the debate. Yeah. He cant. You cant say that 17 year olds lack the Life Experience. I didnt say i do. I do believe they do. Believe they do. Do. Do. Well, sorry. So you have to draw. You have to put a line somewhere, but you have to put a line somewhere. But i dont think the line should be so low. Exactly. Nana. And if you let me, state what id like to state, i think the line is fine. At 16 years old, for and the reason that youre saying that its not logical, its absolutely logical in terms of if someone is able to work , if if someone is able to work, if someone is able to pay tax, if someone is able to pay tax, if someone is able to pay tax, if someone is able to be in the armed forces, how on earth can you say that theyre unable to vote . Well, listen, you can change. You can change gender at what is it, 13 and 14 . Theres no you know, come on, lets be honest. You change sex when youre youngen you change sex when youre younger, so you cant. Thats the logical. Its the best thing ive ever heard. Ive ever heard in the whole year so far that you can have Life Experience at 18 years old, but you have no Life Experience at 17. Nobody said none. But i would say that as you as you live, you grow in your knowledge and you get to be able to do more things. And by that age you should have done more and you probably have a better, better handle on it. Let me go to david balme. Let me ask david balme and a 16 if you can work relevant. Some people, yes, some people dont work a lot of life. Some people dont work and dont pay some people dont work and dont pay taxes. And they also vote. David balme helena chard a great topic, im 66, so in the 1970s at my school, we had mock elections. I think it was the wilson heath election. So we learned heath election. So we learned about the political thing. So if you want 16 to 17 year olds to vote, make politics part of their school or their education, dont suddenly say to a 16 year old, oh, by the way, youre voting in the next election , voting in the next election, because and all theyre going to look at is your sales and tiktok. But the other thing that keir starmer keeps going about people working, as far as i know , children cant leave school at 16 and go and get a job. They have to stay in full time education to 18. So the argument that hes put forward is rubbish. Yes they can, i think, i think children have to stay in full time education until you can leave after your you cant go on benefits, you cant go on benefits at 16, but you can leave at sarah dyke. Make it political Political Studies as part of your education so you have an understanding of what goes on in parliament. Well, i actually think voter the local elections to get them into the habit of voting, but not to the general election. Yeah, i think local elections maybe, but not general. Thats what my thoughts are. Brian dugan, thank you very much for your spirited discussion. And also, david varne, thank you. Very good to talk to you. Those are my Great British voices. Right. Coming up, my quick five quiz, im going to test the panel on some of the stories that caught their eye this week. Next though, my mini debate after employment tribunals found calling a woman from peoples discrimination has woke culture gone too far. This is dup news. Good afternoon. Only 11 minutes good afternoon. Only 11 minutes to go. Oh. Have you been. What have you been doing . If youve just tuned in, why dont leave it so late . Tomorrow we start at three. But moving on. Another story that caught my eye today as a tribunal found that calling as a tribunal found that calling a woman frumpy at work could count as discrimination. As a result of this decision , the result of this decision, the woman who could now sue co workers under the equalities law with a comment being inherently linked to gender and has a potential to violate the dignity of female colleagues. Do you think that woke culture has gone too far . Joining me to discuss lizzie cundy and matthew laza lizzie cundy. Oh, the woke brigade have gone mad this is just just crazy. Am i allowed to say that word . And actually someone on the way in said theres a frumpy dress for you youre wearing today. Did i take offence . No no, no, theyre coming in. A e. This is actually waiting a e. This is actually waiting for 20 hours. But this is a real slippery slope were on. You know, weve got a really be careful every word we say. Im really worried about this. And just because youre offended doesnt make you right. Exactly. Look, i agree that just because youre offended doesnt doesnt make you right. And it also doesnt mean that somebody is being offensive just because youre offended. But i think that frumpy is you wouldnt hear people saying that about a man in quite the same way. So i think its i think its i think its on the edge, that one. I mean, some people call it woke. I call it, you know, fairness in the workplace, but it needs to be common sense, common sense at all times , maybe is the way if all times, maybe is the way if youve dressed in a frumpy way, its like having potatoes and eating, you know, really solid food. Being frumpy is that sort of thing. Yeah, i think it depends on if somebody used it to bully somebody, thats different. But if it was just, i dont know the details in this case, the bullying thing, i dont think that would work very well. Youd be laughed at. Youd be laughed at. Youd be laughed at. Youd expect a bit harder with that, wouldnt you . Yeah. From people from bully. Yeah. From people from bully. Ive been called a lot worse. Ive been called a lot worse. Yeah. Me too. Yeah. Me too. Youve called me a lot worse, lizzie. Well, its time for the quick fire quiz. The part of the show where i test my panel on some of the other stories that caught their eye.
