Crick and Neil Hamilton. Tonight, ill be asking the punst tonight, ill be asking the pundits with a Million People expected to have turned to private health care by the end of the year, have brits given up on the nhs . Our woke museums rewriting history and as eco boffins say, we should only buy three items of clothing a year. What three would you pick . Plus, what three would you pick . Plus, the most important part of the show your emails, they come straight to my laptop market. Vaiews gbnews. Com. And this show has a golden rule. We dont do boring. Not on my watch. Do boring. Not on my watch. I just wont have it. A big two hours to come. We start with my big opinion. Every thing is a big opinion. Every thing is a point of division. These days, isnt it . Brexit veganism, trans rights , race. The interpretation rights, race. The interpretation of history. Harry and meghan versus the royal family. It goes on. Even the allegations surrounding Phillip Schofield and the bbcs huw edwards became yet another tribal war. Why would that be . Why is this happening . Well, glued to our happening . Well, glued to our smartphones and laptops for an unhealthy number of hours in the day, the ingenious algorithms dreamt up in Silicon Valley funnel us into one Identity Group or another where they hack our psychology and manipulate us into taking sides. Now, in the into taking sides. Now, in the good old days, we all thought different things. We agreed or we disagreed, and that was the end of it. Now, if we disagree, your opponent isnt just wrong. Theyre a bad person. Its unhealthy , its unhealthy, its counterproductive, and it threatens to wreck society. Its got to stop. Weve got to do something about what the internet and social media in particular is doing to us as a species. As a case in point, is species. As a case in point, is the devastating and horrific set of allegations against the actor and comedian Russell Brand , and comedian Russell Brand, allegations that could barely be more egregious rape, Sexual Assault and mental abuse. In assault and mental abuse. In a previous era. These allegations would be investigated by the authorities and you would hope that justice would prevail. That justice would prevail. Either way. However, in the last either way. However, in the last few years , things have been few years, things have been changing. Weve had trial by changing. Weve had trial by media with the likes of Paul Gambaccini and Cliff Richard accuse and judged and effectively hung , drawn and effectively hung, drawn and quartered by the media before being proved innocent. But with being proved innocent. But with the damage done particularly in the damage done particularly in the case of Cliff Richard, who was compensated , budgeted to the was compensated, budgeted to the tune of £2 million by the for bbc literally flying helicopters over his house following unfounded and since disproven allegations us. But now its not even tv channels, newspapers or Radio Networks that are rushing to judgement. Were doing it instantly via our own smartphones. Now i dont have smartphones. Now i dont have a clue whats going on with this Russell Brand story and neither do most of us. But it hasnt stopped scores of people on social media weighing in on either side with brand supporters calling him the victim of an establishment media deep state stitch up and others celebrating what they perceive to be this famously womanising narcissist not receiving his just deserts. It strikes me narcissist not receiving his just deserts. It strikes me as deeply wrong to take either view. These are human beings were talking about Russell Brand himself, who denies the allegations. Jones and his allegations. Jones and his alleged victims , whose harrowing alleged victims, whose harrowing stories were told in a compelling, well researched and fastidiously executed channel a documentary not to mention the bold journalism of the times and the sunday times. I agree with my friend and excellent colleague, emily carver , who colleague, emily carver, who struck the middle ground just right in what is emerging as yet another ridiculous culture war here is what emily carver had to say on twitter. Allegations of say on twitter. Allegations of sexual abuse should be taken very seriously. End of it is often the media who bring these things to light. And im grateful that they do so heres what ive got to say. Calm down, what ive got to say. Calm down, everyone , and stop taking sides everyone, and stop taking sides. Lets have a Proper Police investigation and due process. Let the alleged victims be heard in relation to those devastating allegations and let brand himself be innocent until Proven Guilty as enshrined in habeas corpus of 1166. Yes, that law module at uni wasnt a complete waste of time. The only goal here is not point scoring on twitter or instagram, but the truth and justice for. All are people wrong to rush to judgement on social media . Mark at gbnews. Com. How can these alleged crimes be yet another chapter in the ridiculous culture wars . Let me know your thoughts. Lets get the views of thoughts. Lets get the views of my top pundits , the uk director my top pundits, the uk director of the common sense society, emma webb , journalist and emma webb, journalist and broadcaster Michael Crick, and the leader of ukip, former conservative mp Neil Hamilton. Conservative mp Neil Hamilton. Emma, let me start with you. Your reaction to how the country and the world of social media have reacted to this story . I agree with what you said. I think Mary Harrington also wrote a great reaction to this in unherd today, trying to basically call for people to strike that balance because this is of justice. If as is an issue of justice. If as these serious allegations have been made, you know, this should been made, you know, this should be done through the law , i find be done through the law, i find it troubling that people are describing him as a sex offender when there have been no convictions. So i think its important that justice is done when serious allegations are made. But i think, as weve seen in many other cases, theres this sort of rush to mob justice. And just because allegations have been made, that doesnt that the truth doesnt mean that the truth of those yet been established. Yes, michael, youll know about trial by media now. Its trial by smartphone, isnt it . Well, the extraordinary thing is , mark, come here every is, mark, i come on here every few weeks and there am few weeks and there i am adopting the centrist position against your extreme views. And i now find youve joined me and emma has as well. Ive gone woke. Ive gone woke. Yes, its official. Yes, its official. Yes, its official. Well, well on to that well, well come on to that later. But youre absolutely later. But but youre absolutely right. And indeed, gb right. I mean, and indeed, gb news contributes to this well news contributes to this as well , afraid im sure we , im afraid to say. Im sure we do. And the, you know, do. Im sure. And the, you know, Russell Brand , we dont know the Russell Brand, we dont know the witnesses against him are largely anonymous. I they largely anonymous. I they havent gone to the police. And havent gone to the police. And i suspect that if this goes to court, well, i dont think it will go to court because these people havent gone to the police up to now. Its possible, police up to now. Its possible, i suppose, other women will i suppose, that other women will come. But i think come forward. But i think probably the evidence wont be enough to convict him in terms of beyond reasonable doubt. And yet the evidence will be too balanced for him to win a libel action and so it probably wont go to court and yet his reputation will probably never recover in just the same way that Philip Schofield and huw edwards and indeed 1 or 2 colleagues around here, there reputations may not recover from allegations like this. Now, as for this allegation of trial by media, the media does a good job at investigating stories that the authorities have often failed to investigate. And now its a pejorative term trial by media. A lot of the journalists on our television is very Good Journalism , and its a lot journalism, and its a lot better journalism than it was when i started 45 years ago. When i started out 45 years ago. As per carvers tweet in as per emily carvers tweet in which she has said that its lucky that Media Outlets are exposing potential crimes, especially by individuals who may be powerful , may be especially by individuals who may be powerful, may be abusing that power. Neil hamilton, your reaction to from these allegations . Well, i think im probably the only person here this evening who actually faced evening who has actually faced allegations of rape which were made to the police in my case, but were after a month of battle with them from one part of the media to another. They they dropped the entire case. So i have some sympathy with not just Russell Brand, but anybody who is faced with allegations of this kind. If those allegations are denied. But the rush to judgement is very corrosive and coruscating isnt it . Of course, ive spent a lifetime with people rushing to judgement about me , and to judgement about me, and thats just something you have to put up with. But this kind of case is not the same as political judgements. Of course political judgements. Of course these are criminal allegations. These are criminal allegations. If theyre followed through and he could face a long period in prison if he were to be convicted. So and given the convicted. So and given the lottery, which is our Justice System laughably called Justice System, then , you know, you system, then, you know, you never know what the outcome might be. But you might find it improbable that anybody would welcome being poured by a scrofulous scarecrow like Russell Brand. But theres no accounting for taste , is there . Accounting for taste, is there . Well, you win tonights dictionary corner for scrofulous and stop the press folks. And stop the press folks. Mark dolan agrees with Michael Crick and vice versa. Dont get used to it. Michael crick and vice versa. Dont get used to it. Coming up next in the big story, will Russell Brands alleged victims ever justice . And will brand ever get justice . And will brand have a chance to clear his name . Both questions raised now by michael ill be asking michael there. Ill be asking barrister and former star barrister and former tv star jerry hayes. Plus, well jerry hayes. Plus, well be joined top tv producer and joined by a top tv producer and director worked with director who has worked with some of the biggest names in the world and world of comedy and entertainment thats radio. Well, a big reaction to my big opinion. Opinion. Im not happy with the fallout from the allegations around Russell Brand on either side. People are trying to score points, whether theyre supporting brand or rather the opposite. The bottom line is we dont take sides. We need the law to have due process. How about this from jim who says, mark, we find social media totally disturbing and have stopped using all of it. On balance, we feel that the world will be a better place without social media, particularly children. I would ban all social children. I would ban all social media, particularly tiktok and instagram. Of course, when i was talking the big opinion, talking about the big opinion, i did point out that so much of this tribalism even around a story Russell Brand, is story like Russell Brand, is swept up and talked up by social media. This from richard taking a view on anything based on social media content is depressingly numb , says richard. Depressingly numb, says richard. Just watch gb news. Its all you need. Just watch gb news. Its all you need. Well said, richard. Annie need. Well said, richard. Annie says , i deplore trial by media says, i deplore trial by media and if somebody goes to the media before the police, any legal action should be null and void. And last but not least, void. And last but not least, kim says , great to see you at kim says, great to see you at 9 pm, kim says, great to see you at 9 pm, very interesting tonight with your take on the news in your fabulous fashion. Jim, thank you for that. Better go to thank you for that. Better go to specsavers. Keep those emails coming, marc, at gbnews. Com. Its time now for the big story. And lets get more on the fallout from the shocking allegations surrounding comedian and brand , the bbc and actor Russell Brand, the bbc channel 4 and a Production Firm have said theyre investigating accusations of rape and Sexual Assaults between 2006 and 2013, which he denies. To reflect further , im delighted to further, im delighted to welcome barrister and former tv star jerry hayes and tv producer and director craig duncan , whos and director craig duncan, whos worked with some of the biggest names in the world of comedy and entertainment and is the star of his own popular tv channel on youtube, flooded and flooded for anyone that wants to check him out now. Craig, welcome to mark dolan tonight. You know, the Entertainment Industry inside out. Whats your reaction to this bombshell story. This bombshell story. I didnt want to watch the documentary. I was trying to avoid it because i dont have a television licence. I had to go to my mothers house to watch it when you asked me to do it. And i got to say , obviously , i got to say, obviously, anything about and Sexual Assault is appalling and shocking and but this is a documentary. I was watching it documentary. I was watching it as a documentary and i found it was using and employing some very interesting techniques to certainly manipulate how we felt about what we were hearing essentially, and seeing. So it essentially, and seeing. So it was very interesting to watch , actually. Well, im glad that you mentioned that because this is what you do for a living. You produce and direct tv. Some of the some of the most watched tv out there, Top Entertainment shows, all the rest of it, a league um, the league of their own. Um, the film contains some very compelling and distressing testimonies, but there are extra production techniques, arent there, such as music, for example. Why would music be example. Why would music be deployed in a documentary of this type . Well, it is interesting, isnt it . Because if you would think that just being told about a Sexual Assault , just being a Sexual Assault, just being told about it would be enough. But it has to have music added to it in order to make it more more than that, like , you know, more than that, like, you know, like a testimony isnt strong enough. I dont know if, if any future court cases on this subject matter, whether lawyers would be allowed to play music as they hear in the testimony from people in the, you know, up up in the dark. But they did use music on this. Up in the dark. But they did use music on this. And i thought it music on this. And i thought it was kind of manipulative in a way. But thats kind of what we way. But thats kind of what we do. They we try and make the impact of the story were trying to tell as impactful as possible. And i think its shocking that we do it. I dont think we should do it. And thats why i probably will never work in television again , work in television again, because im speaking out about it, because i think that there needs to be a lot of work done by sort of third party Production Company as in terms of how they are going about keeping the audiences engaged and telling their stories. Well, yes, because i think all three of us, jerry, can agree that its important that these testimonies are heard. But these testimonies are heard. But did you find the way that the documentary was made a little manipulative . Manipulative . Well, i didnt see the documentary. Documentary. Ive only read the papers and dont forget, this is really a sunday times story. The sunday times would be working on this for about two years. And i knew this was coming up, um, a little while back. Sunday times. They while back. Sunday times. They are a decent newspaper. Theyve got sensible journalists. Everything was properly sourced. Its been lawyered. And i think its been lawyered. And i think what i agree totally with you, mark, you said at the beginning of the programme, let justice be done. Thats right. Of the programme, let justice be done. Thats right. I of the programme, let justice be done. Thats right. I hope done. Thats right. I hope channel 4 and the sunday times have given all the documents and some of the stuff that they couldnt play to the police. This is a Police Investigation. It has to be a Police Investigation now. And as you rightly said, there must be due process. And theres one test and prosecute a lot of these cases, defend them as well. And thatis cases, defend them as well. And that is there a realistic prospect of conviction that is the test. Then theres the fallout from the media, the pros and against. We cant disinvent social media in the same way. And against. We cant disinvent social media in the same way. We social media in the same way. We cant disinvent the atomic bomb. Both are rather unpleasant and can have some catastrophic consequences. However people should realise if they are writing things in the media which could be actionable or could derail a trial, then theyll be in contempt of court. But they cant be in contempt of court now because theres no legal proceedings. But theyve got to be really, really careful. The last thing is its really weird. Well, everything is weird when it comes to social media, but a lot of people think theres a Conspiracy Theory that theyre all out to get Russell Grant really, really. I just grant really, really. I just dont get that at all. And i should just say Russell Grant yes. Lets not implicate Russell Grant, who is a famous astrologer , author and an astrologer, author and an absolute and a good friend and a good friend. So im sorry , russell. So im sorry, russell. So im sorry, russell. Its an absolute, absolute angel its an absolute, absolute angel. There you go. You got us in legal water russell in legal hot water with Russell Grant and his people. Craig . Craig setting Russell Brand aside, is there an issue in the world of comedy entertainment in relation to the behaviour of male stars . Well, ive definitely i made a video some time ago about the time i worked with james corden , and it kind of went viral a little bit. I was getting approached by journalists a lot. I had a bad experience directing people who directing him and the people who employed me to direct him asked me, how are you at working with really difficult presenters . And really difficult presenters . And i said, im fine , you know, i said, im fine, you know, because theyre all difficult. There is a problem in the industry and its not just its not so much that presenters are difficult, its that theyre given permission to be difficult. The there was a time when the producer was boss and the producer was boss and the producer could call the shots. But now it seems to be everyones afraid of upsetting the presenter because its the commissioners who are in charge and they have no experience of what its like to be in the Office Experience or in the studio or or on location when these presenters are misbehaving. And if you raise any grievances about them, theyll it will probably just get brushed aside. And my experience is that thats what happens. You is that thats what happens. You know, if you start being a problem for that presenter as a as a freelance director , im as a freelance director, im mainly freelance and you just got rid of pretty much. Well, id like to direct my viewers and listeners to your excellent youtube channel. Flooded and check out that james corden video. Its most illuminating. Revenge is a dish illuminating. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Craig listen, on more serious matters, i know you wont name names, but do you think that there could be other figures in the world of comedy and entertainment who could be next . Um , yes. Um, yes. Um, yes. Well , well, yes, i um, yes. Well, well, yes, i think i think obviously , yes. Think obviously, yes. Jerrys absolutely correct. Definitely there must be i dont know if youre indirectly asking me whether ive had any experience of it. I cant actually tell you that i was assaulted. Um on the very first show i ever worked for at the bbc. Um, at the wrap party for a show. Um and my boss was in that documentary, um , so i have documentary, um, so i have actually spoken about this in one of my videos, but im maybe jerry could advise me from a lawyers point of view whether i should speak about it now. Should speak about it now. My advice dont say a word. My advice dont say a word. My advice dont say a word. Id listen. Hire jerry. Hes worth every penny. Jerry well, what. What do you think are the chances that the alleged victims will get justice . And what are the chances that Russell Brand will be able to clear his name or will we have stalemate on this one . Do you think the most depressing thing we all see in these sort of cases , even if these sort of cases, even if Russell Grant russell, why do i say this . Russell brand . Russell brand . Russell brand . Are you a pisces or a virgo . Are you a pisces or a virgo . Rachel ayers im an aries. All their troublemakers. All their troublemakers. I dont i dont like aries. I dont i dont like aries. I dont i dont like aries. I dont i dont like aries. I havent seen them document neven i havent seen them document never, never. But the fact is never, never. But the fact is what ever never, never. But the fact is whatever happens and this is the sad thing um, he will be cancelled now these allegations are serious because theyre criminal. But huw edwards who made who did really nothing wrong, rather stupid. He did really nothing wrong, rather stupid. He did did really nothing wrong, rather stupid. He did nothing actually stupid. He did nothing actually legally wrong. He looks like hes cancelled his Phillip Schofield. What do you think of him . He did nothing illegal and hes being cancelled. And any actor whos had an accusation made against them, even if its an absolutely groundless , they an absolutely groundless, they are cancelled. And thats what we should really be worried about. We should really be worried about. It is scary. And ive about. It is scary. And ive always had a thing. Okay im sorry. Can i just do it . Yeah, of course i do. Very, very quickly. Its slightly different. Ive always been campaigning for anonymity. Been campaigning for anonymity. Anonymity for those accused of Sexual Offences in the same way as the people who complain about it until theyve either been convicted or until theyve pleaded guilty. Because its not fair and its wrong. Fair and its wrong. Craig i think its fundamentally important that the alleged victims have justice, that we have due process, that the police look into this the most devastating accusation and allegations just jumping forward, lets say three years, if this goes away for Russell Brand, lets say in one way or another, is there a way back for Russell Brand at this point, even with a positive outcome . Even with a positive outcome . Im im tempted to say id like to think so. But if it all depends on the outcome of what happens, you know, everyones opinion is going to were going to know whats going to happen. To know whats going to happen. You know, were going to find out this all about. We out what this is. All about. We dont the people are dont know who the people are who the accusations. Who have made the accusations. We havent heard only we havent heard weve only heard the story. So far, heard half of the story. So far, which is one of my criticisms of the documentary. And i think we the documentary. And i think we just have to wait and see. But its very difficult, i think, for presenters to recover from Something Like this. My thanks to barrister and former tv star jerry hayes and Television Producer and director craig duncan, whose videos on all the big media stories of the day can be found on youtube. Just search for his channel flooded or flooded. Okay, lots flooded or flooded. Okay, lots more to come , folks. But first, more to come, folks. But first, the weather. The weather.

So you just take care if travelling if you are travelling there overnight. Rain overnight. Elsewhere, the rain will persistent will be turning more persistent and heavy as for western and heavy as well for western scotland. North west scotland. Parts of north west england , underneath england, underneath all the cloud of us, it cloud around for many of us, it will warm. Will be rather warm. Temperatures up around temperatures holding up around 12 to 17 c. So very mild start to monday morning and this band of rain in the west will gradually push its way over towards the east, scooping up some of the thunderstorms as well, clearing them off out into the be most the north sea. Rain will be most persistent of persistent for parts of north east but behind north east scotland. But behind that will be some that, there will be some brighter intervals developing still scattering of still with a scattering of rather sharp showers watch rather sharp showers to watch out temperatures out for, though temperatures ranging between 14 and 21 c as we head into the middle parts of the week. Another area of low pressure is hot on its heels and wanting to move its way in. So blustery winds developing a blustery winds developing for a good wales , england and good chunk of wales, england and northern coastal gales Northern Ireland. Coastal gales in places. It will be in places. And it will be bringing band of rain bringing this band of rain initially northern initially across Northern Ireland on tuesday, but ireland at dawn on tuesday, but increasingly its way increasingly spreading its way eastwards. Northwest eastwards. Generally northwest england, wales seeing the brunt of the rainfall far south and far perhaps seeing some far north, perhaps seeing some dner far north, perhaps seeing some drier intervals in places. But still catching some of that rainfall. Further showers as we rainfall. Further showers as we head throughout wednesday , head throughout wednesday, thursday. By thursday and friday as well. By that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers, proud sponsors of weather on. Gb news. Weather on. Gb news. Coming up with tonights top pundits. With a Million People expected to have turned to private health care by the end of the year, have brits given up on nhs . Also, our woke on the nhs . Also, our woke museums rewriting history. And as i as eco boffins say that we should only buy three items of clothing a year, what three items would you pick . See you. Of london. You have got to have your own views and reflect what londoners want. Londoners want. Ill get to your emails shortly, but reacting to the big stories of the day, tonights top pundits, the uk director of the common sense society, and we need some of that. Emma webb, need some of that. Emma webb, journalist and broadcaster. Journalist and broadcaster. Lets be honest. Lets have it right. Tv news legend Michael Crick and an icon of politics, the leader of ukip and former conservative mp. No ones perfect. Neil hamilton. Almost perfect. Neil hamilton. Almost a million patients are expected to turn to private health care by the end of the year, as waiting lists hit record highs. This according to new research nhs waiting lists rose to a record 7. 6 8,000,000in july 2023, an increase of 105,000 compared to the previous month. So it begs the previous month. So it begs the previous month. So it begs the question with brits using private healthcare , have they private healthcare, have they given up on the nhs . Michael a given up on the nhs . Michael a worrying story and an issue for the moral authority of the nhs. Yeah, i think so. The moral authority of the nhs. Yeah, i think so. I the moral authority of the nhs. Yeah, i think so. I mean, yeah, i think so. I mean, i think the nhs is appreciably worse than it was pre covid. I mean if i just take our own surgery, its so, so hard to get an appointment to see a doctor or even to see them online these days. And i think the same picture is reflected across the country, the waiting list and so on. And country, the waiting list and so on. And inevitably those people who are many of those people who are better off going are better off are going to go to medicine, end up to private medicine, end up seeing, in some cases, the same consultants they have seen consultants they might have seen in the nhs and i think once more and more people start using private medicine, then that contributes to the further to the decline because people in powerful positions , people with powerful positions, people with powerful positions, people with power and wealth, they dont use the nhs, so they dont care about it. So less gets done in sort of in the same way the Education System has declined over the years. I think because so use private so many people use private education and state in education and state schools in middle are quite middle class areas are quite often standard because often of a High Standard because often of a High Standard because of parents. Of the pushy parents. Indeed. Indeed. So emma webb, a so emma webb, it is a concern. You wonder whether the nhs becoming like the bbc, nhs risks becoming like the bbc, a service weve all got to pay for, but which not everyone for, but one which not everyone uses uses. E one of the people well, im one of the people who turned to private who has turned to private because ive seen the that because ive seen the way that things and think things are going and i think that many people that there will be many people who a personal who are making a personal decision look this who are making a personal deci they look this who are making a personal deci they think, look this who are making a personal deci they think, well, k this who are making a personal deci they think, well, if this who are making a personal deci they think, well, if i this who are making a personal deci they think, well, if i or1is who are making a personal deci they think, well, if i or my and they think, well, if i or my family have medical issue, an family have a medical issue, an and they need some kind of health care, the nhs is not going to be able to provide you with that. And then obviously with that. And then obviously the issue is that if so many people do flock to private health care , you then end up health care, you then end up with this two tier system where those who cant afford to flee the nhs are left in these long waiting lists of millions of people unable to get health care with their health either declining and potential in the long run. Lets be honest, this is going to kill people. So i think the situation is obviously unsustainable , winnable, but unsustainable, winnable, but there isnt really any political will to take the kind of action thatis will to take the kind of action that is necessary to solve it. And of course, this is not neil the exclusive Neil Hamilton, the exclusive domain of the wealthy who are going private. Ive got viewers domain of the wealthy who are goinlisteners. Ive got viewers domain of the wealthy who are goinlisteners who; got viewers domain of the wealthy who are goinlisteners who aret viewers domain of the wealthy who are goinlisteners who are borrowing and listeners who are borrowing money, it on a credit money, putting it on a credit card or using savings to get that new knee or to get their back looked at. Yeah, for millions of people, we havent got a National Health service. Weve national service. Weve got a National Health service simply because its there. But you cant use it for one reason or another. Ive for one reason or another. Ive had private Health Insurance for 20 years, i suppose its surprisingly cheap. You dont need to. Your body is a temple. Well youve been worshipping that. Worshipping that. Ive had very, very bad value. I havent been ill enough. But on the other hand, christine has had far more than her share. Well, yes , thats all her share. Well, yes, thats all the talk with christine. The difference is she has to live with me, whereas i have to live with me, whereas i have to live with me, whereas i have to live with her. No, think i think but but no, i think i think youre in trouble here. Husbands place is in the wrong, michael. You know that. Wrong, michael. You know that. Thats for tonight. But maybe thats for tonight. But maybe this one. Weve been fooling ourselves for years that this tax payer funded universal Health Care Model is the best one. But it isnt because you simply cannot provide for the needs, particularly the growing complexity of medical needs and the ageing population out of a taxpayer funded system. And taxpayer funded system. And were almost unique in the world. In this model, the nhs is said to be the envy of the world, but nobody else has copied it. But isnt it isnt it smart to have one buyer of services , buyer services, one buyer of medication, one central employer that doesnt have the profit motive . Surely the nhs makes sense as a Business Model because monopoly , generally speaking, is monopoly, generally speaking, is held to be a bad thing because removing the incentives provided by competition makes for inefficiency , not efficiency. Inefficiency, not efficiency. So you know, most of europe, including the irish republic, are fund services, are funded by some kind of Co Partnership system, a mix of taxpayer funding, charities as personal finance and so on. And this is the way forward. There are lots the way forward. There are lots of conditions which can easily be insured against orthopaedic things which so many knees and hips will be done in any one yeah hips will be done in any one year. Thats something you can insure against quite cheaply and if you over a lifetime if you do it over a lifetime when youre young, of course your few. When your needs are very few. When your needs are very few. When you get older, theyre greater. You get older, theyre greater. So if you get used to saving for this, youll find at the end of the day you get a better service, but youll be in control of the great thing about the Health Service the National Health service is a massive bureaucracy, a huge monolith number people monolith. The number of people who are nhs bureaucrats is vastly increased in the last five years and Health Care Outcomes are worse. Outcomes are worse. Well, ive got to say, for me, free at the point of need is a red line. But how do we get a red line. But how do we get there certainly up for there is certainly up for debate. On, museums debate. Now, moving on, museums are buildings in which objects of historical scientific , of historical scientific, artistic or cultural interest are stored and exhibited. We know that. But what we started to see in recent years are multiple institutions displaying modern artists reinterpretations of history. So it begs the question are woke museums rewriting history . What do we think about this, folks . It also happens , doesnt it . Not just in happens, doesnt it . Not just in terms of history. Happens, doesnt it . Not just in terms of history. And for terms of history. And for example, the British Museum or National Trust venues , emma. But National Trust venues, emma. But you can go to the Science Museum and get a lecture about slavery whilst looking at the first steam engine. This is, this is across well, this is, this is across the board, even in universities as its not that long as well. And its not that long ago, not to give away my age, but in the grand scheme of things not that long ago that i was an undergraduate and even then was sort of point of then it was sort of point of like sort of methodological point that you dont impose the present on the past, you present on the past, that you have to understand things on their least to their own terms, at least to some degree. Whereas i think some degree. Whereas now i think its not just our museums, but like said, National Like you said, the National Trust , other institutions like trust, other institutions like universities , everything that is universities, everything that is cultural is being weaponized by activists. And so you see this activists. And so you see this this this quote that was included in a in a this telegraph article here talking about how how museums should be used to create a fairer future and take on an activist role. I mean, that is not the purpose of a museum. And its something that weve been seeing across the board since 2020. Indeed. I mean, michael, its indeed. I mean, michael, its a problem, isnt it . You go to a museum and youre told that this museum and youre told that this museum was only built as a result of the general pity of a benefactor who was involved in the trade. Well, there are the slave trade. Well, there are countless figures in history who were slave were involved in the slave trade, any of the great european cities will history of cities will have a history of bloodshed and human cruelty. So bloodshed and human cruelty. So why the lectures . Well, i mean , thats well, i mean, thats a problem. But i on the other hand, i think for too long our history has been the great men version of history, forgetting that actually there were lots of little people. Theres also little people. Theres also making history. The peasants , making history. The peasants, the workers, the people slaving, slaving away in the factories, not strict slavery, but akin to it. And if these museums and if these versions of history are reflecting that , that what reflecting that, that what actually happened to those people, to the little people, then great. Its when they start manufacturing a version of history that doesnt is not related to the truth that i have problems. Problems. Or when visit to a museum or when a visit to a museum feels apology. Feels like one long apology. Neil yeah, all or a lecture which you dont want or which you disagree with because cause the so called woke narrative thatis the so called woke narrative that is peddled by these museums is called history in many ways , is called history in many ways, slavery is many faceted event in the course of human history. I mean, who sold the slaves into slavery in the first place . How did the slave traders who turned in ships on the shores turned up in ships on the shores of whats now nigeria get the slaves . Didnt they didnt slaves . They didnt they didnt go out and capture them themselves. They didnt have the numbers of people to do numbers of people on board to do that. These slaves were rounded up that. These slaves were rounded p by that. These slaves were rounded up by black people in what was nigeria then. And sold in a merciless way. So this isnt a black and white issue where the whites are always in the wrong and the blacks are always in the right. It was an almost a universal found in the ancient world and for a very long time afterwards. Okay. Well, whats your view, mark gb news. Com this show is the home of diverse opinions, so let me know what you think coming up in my take at ten, ill be dealing with theresa may who said shes woke and proud. She wont want to miss my response. First, mark response. But first, my mark meets is the author meets guest is the author of an explosive and all explosive warts and all biography of the man could biography of the man who could well Prime Minister, well be our next Prime Minister, who the keir starmer . Who is the real keir starmer . Find out next ill be dealing with theresa may at 10 00. Our worst Prime Minister in 100 years. But first, this is. Yes its time for mark meets. He is the ex top lawyer and director of Public Prosecutions who hopes to be our next Prime Minister, sir keir starmer. But given his fondness for sitting on the fence, what do we really know about this man who may be britain who may well be leading britain in a years time . What are his values or how left wing is he . Is he someone that you can have a pint with and does he have what it takes to run this country a critical and country at a critical and challenging time in our history . Well im delighted that well im delighted to say that his biographer joins me the well im delighted to say that his biographerjoins me the most published living author in the country with over 200 books to his name, nigel cawthorne. John, his name, nigel cawthorne. John, nigel has written keir starmer a life of contrasts. Its the life of contrasts. Its the unauthorised biography. Its out unauthorised biography. Its out now. And nigel, welcome to the show. He was a very successful lawyer, wasnt he . So why did he enter politics . I think from from his rather humble and very left wing background. His parents were background. His parents were very on that side of politics and hes a man of commitment dunng and hes a man of commitment during his time as a lawyer, he spent an awful lot of time with colleagues , essentially colleagues, essentially outlawing outlawing Capital Punishment in many countries around the world. And they did this completely off their own back. This completely off their own back. You know, hes a man of back. You know, hes a man of commitment , back. You know, hes a man of commitment, indeed. So, i mean, hes often cast as tony to blair point zero, isnt he . But he campaigned for Jeremy Corbyn to be Prime Minister. Is he more left wing than he makes out . Well he certainly has a very background that way. That way. He was an anti monarchist when he was was younger. But like most of us, as we get older, we moved to more towards the centre and then thats where hes going heading now. Hes going heading now. Indeed. I mean he seems nigel doesnt he, to flip flop on policy , he tried to reverse policy, he tried to reverse brexit, now he loves it. He wanted a nationalised the utilities, now he doesnt. He was going to raise taxes on top earners. Now he isnt the child earners. Now he isnt the child benefit cap and of course £28 billion a year to save the planet , which billion a year to save the planet, which has billion a year to save the planet , which has been axed billion a year to save the planet, which has been axed as a policy. He why is he so policy. He why is he so indecisive of well , ive indecisive of well, ive a feeling that at the moment, if you were a sensitive will, leader of the opposition , you leader of the opposition, you just keep your mouth shut because is plainly the conservative government is falling apart and theyre out to lose. He doesnt really need policies to win. He should just keep quiet and let. The natural keep quiet and let. The natural course of things because in a liberal democracy , as we have, liberal democracy, as we have, you need to have a change of government, a change of party every so often when the conservatives have been there a long time, we know theyve kind of run out of steam. So let the other lot have a go. Well i think youre right. The less he says the better. We saw that this week with his outline solution for the migrant crisis, which involves a partnership with the eu , which i partnership with the eu, which i think will go down like a lead balloon in those red wall constituencies. Nigel keir constituencies. Nigel keir starmer has got himself in a pickle over how to define a woman. Will this damage him politically, do you think . Politically, do you think . Well, we are all having a bit of difficulty with that, arent we . Um, im not the these is this is so kind of arcane nonsense thats going on at the moment. Uh, on the very fringes of politics who , hell, who the hell politics who, hell, who the hell cares . As you say, you dont cares . As you say, you dont have a problem defining what a woman is. I dont have a problem defining that either. When when . Go home to my girlfriend and i know shes a woman. And the know shes a woman. And the problem with that. But why . Why problem with that. But why . Why are people making up these artificial difficulties for poor politicians who then have to stumble over this these landmines and only a tiny minority of people are concerned about these matters . Well, i dont know, nigel. A landmine of his own making. I landmine of his own making. I mean, i can just say a woman is an adult female human woman, but thats something that starmer still hasnt really said. What still hasnt really said. What about his qualities . Is he about his qualities . Is he clever . Clever . Oh, hes certainly highly intelligent man. Absolutely you intelligent man. Absolutely you cant fault him on that. And hes obviously, as i say, a very committed moral man. Um, and the committed moral man. Um, and the one thing that everyone says about him that hes rather dull, but weve had rather too many exciting politician turns. Its time to have a dull one. We need a new Clement Attlee to put things together again. Things together again. What do we know about his private life . Nigel private life . Nigel well , private life . Nigel well, again, i think that that hes a pretty faithful husband and im sure theres been weve all had in our youth , um, minor flirtations that we dont really need to go into at this point in his life. Im sure hes , hes a good husband and hes, hes a good husband and good father. Good father. When you say minor flirtation , do you mean are you alleging that hes hes been adulterous in his marriage . Oh, no, no , im absolutely oh, no, no, im absolutely not. Im saying when he was a younger man before he was. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I wouldnt no, no, no, no, no. I wouldnt sell his reputation in that way at all. No, he so sowed his wild seeds. Listen, its a privilege to have the most published author in the country , nigel, by the in the country, nigel, by the way, 200 books youve written one about keir starmer. Whats the most surprising thing fact about keir starmer from your book . Whats the most surprising . Well i always love the fact that hes kind of a mate of flat fatboy slim. That makes him rather more exciting than than youd think. Thatll do me. That works for me. Nigel are thrilled to have you on the show and look forward to talking to you about your many books. Let me you that many books. Let me tell you that nigels of keir nigels biography of keir starmer now. Lots more to starmer is out now. Lots more to come. First, heres a quick come.

Thanks, mark. Good evening. Our top stories tonight, the met police is set to speak to channel 4 and the sunday times after claims of rape and Sexual Assault were made against the comedian Russell Brand. A warning for those watching on television. The following footage contains flashing images. The force says its aware of media reports of a series of allegations and urged anyone who believes that theyve been a victim of Sexual Assault to get in touch. It comes as the bbc in touch. It comes as the bbc channel 4 and a Production Company behind shows hosted by brand launched their own urgent reviews. A warning some people reviews. A warning some people may find the following content distressing. Distressing. Hes like, so how many people have you had sex with . And i said, no one. Ive never had sex with anyone. And he got an with anyone. And he got an erection straight away and he was like, oh my god. Hes like, my baby, my baby. And pick me up and cradled me in his arms like and cradled me in his arms like a child and was stroking my hair. Hes like, youre like hair. And hes like, youre like my dolly. Russell engaged my little dolly. Russell engaged in the behaviours of a groomer. Looking back on it, i didnt even know what that was then or what that looked like. He would try to drive a wedge between me and my parents. Taught me to lie to them. To them. Well, Russell Brand denies any criminality and insists that all of his relationships have been consensual. While media been consensual. While media lawyer jonathan code told us its crucial that the allegations are examined. Allegations are examined. Good reporting outfits like you must be allowed to make allegations as, say, some hard things. We only have to think things. We only have to think very far back. Huw edwards, very far back. Huw edwards, kevin spacey , both were the kevin spacey, both were the subject of huge media assaults and both , it turns out, are and both, it turns out, are innocent. So these are very, innocent. So these are very, very difficult questions as to the protection of peoples reputation on one hand. And the right of free speech on another in other news, sir keir starmer says hell seek a much better brexit deal if labour wins the next election. Next election. The party leader told the Financial Times that hed tried to negotiate a closer trading relationship with the eu. Labour has ruled out rejoining the Customs Union or single market. However, the trade and Cooperation Agreement negotiated under Boris Johnson will be up for review in 2025. Liz truss will claim rishi sunaks government has spent £35 billion more than she would have done speaking at the institute for government, the former Prime Minister will defend her time in charge nearly a year after the mini budget that led to her resignation. According to the telegraph, ms truss will claim that under her plans, £18. 4 billion would have been saved this year and next.

If politicians dont start listening to voters in regards to illegal immigration in net zero, crime and wokery will there be an uprising even bigger than brexit . Ill be asking tonights newsmaker, Ann Widdecombe, on whether british democracy is in crisis. Do you feel heard . Mark gb news. Com. Plus, tomorrows newspaper. Front pages and live reaction in the studio from my top pundits as we have the brilliant emma webb, Michael Crick and Neil Hamilton, plus , theyll be hamilton, plus, theyll be nominating their headline heroes and back page zeroes of the day. So a packed hour and those papers are coming. Were looking for more potential allegations around Russell Brand. Lots to get through. But first, my take. At ten. Theresa may remember her well. Shes told times radio that shes woke and proud as she called for a sensitive approach to issues surrounding gender. The former Prime Minister compared being asked whether she was a woke woman to having been asked in the past whether she was a feminist, adding, well, i wore a t shirt which said , this wore a t shirt which said, this is what a feminist looks like. Is what a feminist looks like. Really. Mrs. May does a feminist support the woke idea of gender ideology with fully intact biological males who call themselves women participating in female sport and breaking all records , as does a feminist records, as does a feminist support the idea of men who call themselves women entering female toilets, changing rooms, rape crisis centres , or even womens crisis centres, or even womens prisons. Crisis centres, or even womens prisons. Does a feminist support the idea that lesbians are bigots or transphobic if theyre not attract to a biological, male sporting an erect penis . Theresa may is a feminist. Is she . Well with friends like that, who needs enemies . As mrs. That, who needs enemies . As mrs. May says, shes woke well, woke transgender ideology, which says that you can change your sex and that you can change your sex and that men are women and that women are men is not just an affront to any self respecting feminist , affront to any self respecting feminist, but its an affront to women across the board. As Prime Minister , she put forward plans. Minister, she put forward plans. Now scrapped, thankfully, to allow self id where people could simply define their own gender without out a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria. Woke indeed, its my view that theresa may was probably the worst Prime Minister in 100 years, someone who could be relied upon to make the wrong decision at every turn , rolling decision at every turn, rolling over to the eu with her disastrous Withdrawal Agreement that Boris Johnson and lord frost had so much trouble unpicking the harder brexit that was eventually achieved is delivering the goods for this country. Trade deals all over country. Trade deals all over the place. Economic growth since the place. Economic growth since the pandemic higher than france, germany and italy. I could go on germany and italy. I could go on none of that thanks to may, inheriting a small but workable majority in 2016 from david cameron. In a moment of madness and hubris , theresa may and hubris, theresa may demonstrated her political ineptitude by calling a snap election going to the country early in order to boost her majority, but instead eviscerating it. She listened to her foolish advisers fiona hill and nick timothy , unveiling the and nick timothy, unveiling the hated dementia tax, which would see families beset with that illness, potentially having to sell their home. Her performance in that 2017 Election Campaign was so abysmal, her public speaking skills were up there with Shane Macgowan after a trip to the dentist. Her campaign was so bad it saw us flirt with the possibility of a Jeremy Corbyn led government, which would have been an economic and National Security disaster for the country. The result in the end was no overall majority and a reliance on the dup to form a government. It was a mess. And her premiership an almighty shambles. Her premiership an almighty shambles. But theres no humility , no self reflection humility, no self reflection from this ex pm , who has a book from this ex pm, who has a book on the way about her glorious time in power which will be perfect for my winter firewood. Theresa may is not without her talents. The longest serving home secretary since the war. Some achievement giving the given the tumultuous nature of life in that department. Shes clearly a person thats hard working. Shes a decent human being. Shes committed and obviously bright and shes always spoken up for the plight of Vulnerable Women both at home and abroad. And she said shes proud to be woke based upon the original definition, which is alert to injustice. And of alert to injustice. And of course, in that sense, i would hope almost all of us are indeed woke. But these flippant woke. But these flippant comments are an admission of the current state of the conservative party , which is no conservative party, which is no longer conservative at all. The likes of theresa may and many other so called conservative cvs would prefer to virtue signal and follow the ultra progressive scripture than call out the anti scientific, toxic madness of wokery, which is befalling us and which is so at odds with western values and enlightenment. Unfortunately although she was only in power for a short time, mrs. May made her presence felt no. Her presence felt no. Significantly, she signed the net zero target into law in 2019. The economic damage for which is yet to come, not to mention the energy instability. Some legacy. Theresa may might be woke, but there are a lot of other words that could describe her too, none of which are appropriate for a family show. Thank god shes gone. What do thank god shes gone. What do you think, mark . At gbnews. Com or get to your email shortly. Or get to your email shortly. But lets hear from my top punst. But lets hear from my top pundits. The but lets hear from my top pundits. The uk director of but lets hear from my top pundits. The uk director of the pundits. The uk director of the common sense society, emma webb , the very embodiment of common sense , broadcaster and sense, broadcaster and journalist and tv news legend Michael Crick and an icon of british politics, former conservative mp and now the leader of ukip, Neil Hamilton. Leader of ukip, Neil Hamilton. Let me ask you, neil, what you think about theresa mays admission that shes woke and what it says about the modern tory party . Well, i think youve done her a tremendous disservice. Shes not the worst Prime Minister in a tremendous disservice. Shes not lastworst Prime Minister in a tremendous disservice. Shes not last 100t Prime Minister in a tremendous disservice. Shes not last 100 years; minister in a tremendous disservice. Shes not last 100 years. Iminister in a tremendous disservice. Shes not last 100 years. I think er in the last 100 years. I think shes Prime Minister shes the worst Prime Minister in that she in the last 250 years that she compares very well with lord north, who lost american north, who lost the american colonies. Was an colonies. I think she was an utterly catastrophic Prime Minister and her confession of wokery just just is all all of a piece with the other disasters which you enumerated in your take a minute ago. The poison pill of the net zero commitment which has left us with the complete squandering of the opportunity cases of brexit, which have actually done a lot to discredit what otherwise should have been a feather in the cap of a conservative government. So the reverberation government. So the reverberation portions of her premiership will be with us in a very unpleasant way for many, many years to come. Well, Michael Crick, i wonder whether i perhaps are being harsh on theresa may. Weve just heard liz truss defending her legacy there. She was only in office for 44 days and i suppose compared to Boris Johnson and liz truss, she cuts quite a regal figure. Yeah. Shes contrary to what yeah. Shes contrary to what neil says. She wasnt even the worst Prime Minister of the last five years. That was liz truss , five years. That was liz truss, followed by Boris Johnson. She followed by Boris Johnson. She was a pretty bad Prime Minister, ill accept. But then she faced appalling circumstances the whole dealing with brexit thing that nobody really knew how to deal with brexit, nobody really thought it through. Well you werent available and then and then of course she made it worse by that disaster. Oestrus decision to call an election. Decision to call an election. But as for this woke thing, she clearly means woke in its original sense as youve suggested. In other words, alert or awake, if you like , to or awake, if you like, to injustice and Racial Injustice injustice and Racial Injustice in particular. And of course, there was that famous speech on there was that famous speech on the steps of downing street when she talked about burning injustice and the fact that if youre face youre born black, you face discrimination in the criminal Justice System. And so on. On the other hand, this is the same woman that presided over the home during the hostile home office during the hostile Environment Campaign in and also presided over the whole windrush scandal , although of course that scandal, although of course that had been going back decades. So its a mixed picture there, but im glad that to see that she calls herself woke in the traditional sense. I dont think she means woke in the way in which that word has been evolved and corrupted. I dont think she and corrupted. I dont think she means woke in terms of all the trans stuff and so on. Emma im sure shes a decent human being, not without her talents. Am i too harsh on talents. Am i too harsh on theresa may i dont i, i dont think youre wrong that she was a bad Prime Minister i think that these particular statements about being woke show how little she knows. I think its an extremely uninformed thing for her to say. In fact, its extremely uninformed thing for her to say. In fact, its just simply illiterate of how the word is currently being used. And you can talk about, you know, the dictionary definition of woke or how it might have once but in the once been used, but in the current context, that is absolutely not what what it means. And i think either she is being will fully ignorant in the way that shes putting forward her opinion or i think more likely is that she just doesnt really know what shes talking about. Doesnt know about. She doesnt really know the background and the intellectual background. And in support of the term woke. And i support of the term woke. And i think mark going back to your question, no , i dont think you question, no, i dont think you are being over the top. Maybe to are being over the top. Maybe to say that shes the worst in 100 years. I dont know. But i think that theres something about her ill informed way of going about that particular interview that i think is represented of her entire premiership. Entire premiership. Would you like to defend theresa may and her legacy market . Gb news. Com coming up next, if politicians dont start listening to voters in regards to illegal immigration, net zero crime and the aforementioned wokery will there be an uprising even bigger than brexit .

The results are in and 68 of you say yes and 32 say no. A Strong Majority that feel let down by our Health Service now writing in todays sunday telegraph. Its excellent. Editor Alastair Heath says that britain is now an elite dictatorship where majority opinions are crushed. He goes on to write britains deranged war on cars. Our looming ban on gas boilers, the de banking ing scandal, the failure to prosecute crime, the attempted cancellation of women, the sabotage of the brexit agenda, the scale of migrant action. Welcome to anti democratic britain , where anti democratic britain, where the anti democratic britain, where the beleaguered majority is increasingly subject to the whims of an entitled activist elite that often seems to despise the people over which it exercises so much power. Well, exercises so much power. Well, if this is true and continues, will there be an uprising even bigger than brexit as suggested by heath in his article . Lets put that to you. Tonights newsmaker, former government minister, bestselling author and Television PersonalityAnn Widdecombe. And is britain now widdecombe. And is britain now run by a woke or autocratic elite out of touch with the public . Oh, yes. I think there can be any doubt about that at all. I mean, when they pass the laws that theyve passed for net zero one, does wonder, you know, if they can even find their boiler, if they even know where it is. If they even know where it is. You know, theyre apparently so big that from the economies and concerns of ordinary people. So, yes, i think theyre very detached. Now, the question is , detached. Now, the question is, you know, will there be a revolt against that at the next general election, which is when , you election, which is when, you know, the next democratic test is going to take place on any scale . Now, there should be and scale . Now, there should be and its really down to individual courage. Im saying to people at the moment, look, if youve had enough, really had enough, if you really had enough, if you really had enough, change. Enough, then vote for change. Because if you dont, youre going get more of same. Going to get more of the same. Now, think that in 2019, that now, i think that in 2019, that was quite a difficult message to get across because you had Jeremy Corbyn who people Jeremy Corbyn who scared people witless , so they didnt dare to witless, so they didnt dare to vote for a third party because if they did , they might let if they did, they might let corbyn in. That doesnt apply this time. Youve got an this time. Youve got an extremely weak and feeble , you extremely weak and feeble, you know , undefined almost. Keir know, undefined almost. Keir starmer its very difficult to know what he thinks and what his principles are because he tells us Something Different every five minutes. So but people arent scared by him in the way that they were scared by corbyn. So this might be the right time to say, look, you know, if youve really enough youve really had enough of this, see this, if you want to see immigration if immigration under control, if you want to see brexit implemented , and if you to implemented, and if you want to see shoplifters prosecute then see shoplifters prosecute, then youve do away with youve just got to do away with those who are failing to do that. And in their place. But a party that would and thats why ive joined reform. I didnt ive joined reform. I didnt join reform immediately after it ceased to be the brexit party because i wasnt sure. Im now because i wasnt sure. Im now very sure that i cannot trust the major parties to do anything that the nation wants. But how does and sorry to interrupt you. Apologies, ann. How does somebody like the leader of reform uk or or the leader of ukip, Neil Hamilton, whos with us tonight, how do they create and produce that brexit moment . And produce that brexit moment . Because our electoral system is stacked against them when will this Political Revolution come . It will come when people have had more than they can take. And thats what happened with brexit and the european elections. Okay, it was run to elections. Okay, it was run to a different system, but the fact is that the brexit party swept the board and demolished the other parties. Now, partly other parties. Now, partly people dared to do that because after all, this was the european parliament. It wasnt westminster. So probably safe to westminster. So probably safe to do that. But also people just wanted to scream one word. Enough. You know, weve had enough. Enough. You know, weve had enough. And i think that that enough. And i think that that thatis enough. And i think that that that is there at the moment. Im finding it everywhere i go, people are saying to me they may well not vote for the party. They voted for all their lives. Usually thats a tory party but ive heard it from labour people as change. As well. People want change. Youll only get change if you vote for it. You cant sit there and i want change and then and say, i want change and then vote to keep the same and vote to keep the same thing and expect change to happen because it wont. It wont. And in it wont. It wont. And in exactly the same way that when people moan about the demise of christianity in this country , i christianity in this country, i say, well, thats down to christians. You its down say, well, thats down to chthem|s. You its down say, well, thats down to chthem|s. You so its down say, well, thats down to chthem|s. You so i its down say, well, thats down to chthem|s. You so i say down say, well, thats down to chthem|s. You so i say to nn to them moving. So i say to people who complain about the demise of democracy, fine , its demise of democracy, fine, its down to you. Which way are you going to vote in the next election . You are you election . You know, are you actually to against actually going to vote against this you going to go on this or are you going to go on voting if youre voting for it . And if youre going on voting for it, going to go on voting for it, dont to me. Dont complain to me. A call arms ann a call to arms from Ann Widdecombe, one i very widdecombe, one that i find very inspiring and briefly, you inspiring and briefly, if you can, medical council can, the General Medical Council has mention of the has removed all mention of the word mother from a maternity document for its staff , document for its staff, replacing female specific language with gender neutral terms like surrogate parents instead of surrogate mother and its internal menopause policy document has also been updated and is stripped out of all references to women. As someone that definitely doesnt struggle to define her gender, your reaction . Reaction . Well, my reaction is that they need some basic biology lessons. I they need some basic biology lessons. I mean, the only they need some basic biology lessons. I mean, the only way lessons. I mean, the only way you give birth is if youre a woman. You know, a man does not give birth and you know what is a woman whos given birth . Shes a woman whos given birth . Shes a mother. And most women will be deeply insulted not to be referred to as mothers because its one of the most important things, probably the most important thing in their lives is that theyre a mother. They want to be called mum and they want to be called mum and they want the outside to world recognise mother, know recognise them as mother, know what is the matter with these people . Well, well indeed, look, people . Know. L, well indeed, look, people . Know thatell indeed, look, people . Know that you |deed, look, people . Know that you were, look, people . Know that you were very look, i know that you were very and you close to your i very l very quickly very quickly comes back to our our previous discussion when we were talking about the disempowered of the individual. You know, it doesnt matter how much they protest , theyre not much they protest, theyre not going to be called mother anymore, know, because the anymore, you know, because the powers be dont to. Powers that be dont want to. Perfect case in point its a perfect case in point and a thrill. And i look and always a thrill. And i look forward to seeing a forward to seeing you in a weeks thanks to former weeks time. My thanks to former government minister, bestselling author and Television PersonalityAnn Widdecombe.

Now listen , Financial Times. Now listen, its normally a complete snooze fest. That paper. But ive got to what explosive to say, what an explosive headune to say, what an explosive headline government headline a Labour Government would to rewrite the brexit would seek to rewrite the brexit deal would seek to rewrite the brexit deal. Keir starmer pledges. Sir deal. Keir starmer pledges. Sir keir starmer has promised to seek a major rewrite of Britains Brexit deal in 2025 if labour win the next election , labour win the next election, saying he owes it to his children to rebuild relations with the eu. Starmer told the ft that he would put a closer trading relationship with brussels and a new partnership with business at the heart of his bolster britains his efforts to bolster britains economic growth. As britains economic growth. As britains trade Cooperation Agreement trade and Cooperation Agreement with the negotiated by boris with the eu negotiated by Boris Johnson, is due for review in 2025. Starmer said he saw this as an important moment to reset relations , as almost everyone relations, as almost everyone recognises that the deal johnson struck is not a good deal, says starmer. Its far too thin, so there you go. What do we think about that . Ill get reaction from Neil Hamilton, Michael Crick webb just crick and emma webb in just a moment. Boiling point climate moment. Boiling point climate tops the un agenda is another story in the ft. The guardian. Next, unite launches red wall push for more radical labour policies. Labours Biggest Union backer, unite, is launching a Grass Roots Campaign in industrial constituencies across the uk, demanding more radical policies on energy, steel and green jobs. Union leader sorry unhes green jobs. Union leader sorry unites leader sharon graham, whos been publicly critical of keir starmer, said funding earmarked for labour would instead be funnelled into stoking public pressure for the party to shift its position on key issues, including nationalisation of energy companies. Also in the guardian , the story that wont go away tv chiefs investigate brand allegations, though of course thats Russell Brand, pictured leaving a london theatre after performing a comedy set last night. Of course, my methods in extreme , highly troubling and extreme, highly troubling and devastating allegations of rape and Sexual Assault allegations, which brand denies an open secret, says the eye newspaper Russell Brand. And broadcasters Russell Brand. And broadcasters face questions over failures. Face questions over failures. The mirror brand and predator claims. What did tv chiefs know . Metro brand what did tv bosses know following a similar line there to the mirror, it looks like the tv industry now will have questions to answer in relation to what at this stage we must be very Crystal Clear about our allegations. Also, the about our allegations. Also, the daily star running with Russell Brand, but also im afraid the weather is on the turn. Weather is on the turn. Hurricane lee storms in with a fortnights rain in a day. Britain on the lash, but not in a good way. Not in a Michael Crick way. Why does it . I dont even know. Does he go on the lash . Im sure he does. Thats how he gets all those exclusives. Why does it always rain hurricane lee is to rain on us . Hurricane lee is to batter britain with 60 mile an rain on us . Hurricane lee is to battegustsain with 60 mile an rain on us . Hurricane lee is to battegusts. N with 60 mile an rain on us . Hurricane lee is to battegusts. And h 60 mile an rain on us . Hurricane lee is to battegusts. And then mile an rain on us . Hurricane lee is to battegusts. And then theres1 rain on us . Hurricane lee is to battegusts. And then theres the hour gusts. And then theres the 11 day stretch rain and 11 day stretch of rain and floods. It breezy easy out floods. Take it breezy easy out there, say the daily star. Okay there, say the daily star. Okay lets get reaction from my aforementioned fantastic pundits. Tonight, we have emma webb, Michael Crick and Neil Hamilton and i think, emma, we should start with the feet, which is a sentence ive never said before. By the way. I didnt mind the feet. Its Good Journalism, but can be a touch dry. But i think that this will definitely spike the interest of my listeners my viewers and listeners because Labour Government would seek to rewrite brexit deal. Starmer rewrite the brexit deal. Starmer pledges. He the man to do it . Pledges. Is he the man to do it . Its very interesting. Sting its very interesting. Sting seeing Financial Times seeing the Financial Times headune seeing the Financial Times headline alongside the guardian that they want to focus on the red wall, but also theyre just about to really annoy all of those brexit voters in the red wall whose votes theyre trying to seek so slightly confused by their strategies on this. I their strategies on this. I think a lot of people will be very concerned about the possibility a starmer possibility of a starmer government as this article suggests, seems owing to the way this puts it, is reduce trade friction. But what we know that means is pulling us into a closer union or a closer relationship with the eu. And as we know , that has a kind of we know, that has a kind of gravitational pull that likes to suck the sovereignty out of any nafion suck the sovereignty out of any nation that its involved with. So i think a lot of people, myself included, as a brexiteer, would be concerned by that. But i think looking at the guardian headline, it looks like their strategy is a little bit confused, doesnt it . It does a bit. It does a bit. But this will certainly concern brexit supporters. Neil, concern brexit supporters. Neil, theidea concern brexit supporters. Neil, the idea that labour would renegotiate the brexit deal, given the fact that although its not perfect , our economic its not perfect, our Economic Performance is favourable compared to our eu counterparts as well. Weve hardly started the Brexit Process is the truth of the matter. So it wont be that the matter. So it wont be that difficult for keir starmer to reunite us if not in the formal legal sense at least in the informal one, whereby we accept everything that is written in brussels, even though we dont have a vote there or a voice at. And this was always inevitable because i mean, the key to keir starmer is that hes a globalist , a technocrat bureaucrat , and , a technocrat bureaucrat, and he isnt really interested in democracy. Going back to what ian whitcomb was saying, wheres the evidence . Hes not interested in democracy. Well, because hes part of this miasma which covers the Political Landscape where there isnt really much difference between the tories , labour, between the tories, labour, liberals, scottish nationalists, welsh nationalists, you know, theyre all a mush in the middle. But i mean the key to keir starmer i saw last week or the week before on some podcast or radio interview that he did , or radio interview that he did, watched it where he was asked to say to choose between westminster and davos and unhesitant. He said, davos, you unhesitant. He said, davos, you know , davos man, hes davos man know, davos man, hes davos man like tony blair before him personified. Well, as indeed his personified. Well, as indeed his sunak, of course. I mean, they sunak, of course. I mean, they are all of the same mould and the idea of free markets and entrepreneurship doesnt even enter their thinking. They dont understand it because they think governments actually do good things. But governments actually have done disastrous things, as we know, in the look at whats happenedin we know, in the look at whats happened in the last five years, the experiences that weve the worst experiences that weve had because of the governments response to covid they got response to covid were they got it spectacularly wrong. And this is happens if you is what happens if you concentrate the hands concentrate power in the hands of a small number of people. Of a small number of people. Yes, thats capitalism. It was really w. H. O. That respond to the pandemic, not our sovereign government, of course. And the who. Wants to control governments all around the world. The new compact on on health, which the un has been pushing , health, which the un has been pushing, like the tax compact, which this government idiotically has signed up to, could be a minimum rate of Corporation Tax of 15 all around the world. Competition between governments is as important as competition in any economy. I wonder , michael, whether i wonder, michael, whether labour and keir starmer is more expose posed to the issues around brexit than rishi sunak because hes trying to ride two horses, isnt he . To placate to placate metropolitan labour voters who loathe brexit and to placate red wall voters who love it . Yeah. Although sunaks got to do the same thing. I mean, sunak is in danger of losing votes in the south east metropolitan england and losing the red wall. So theyve both got the same problem. But this headline really, i mean, the normally sober feet, well, it looks like their headline writers have been on the lash , if you dont mind on the lash, if you dont mind me saying so. I mean , i cant me saying so. I mean, i cant read the text because the prints too small. But as described by you and in the subheads, a new trading deal. Well, you believe in free trade. You will. We all believe in free trade. The more trading deals, the better. Trading deals, the better. Resetting whats resetting relations. Whats wrong with that . Hes not. Starmer not talking about starmer is not talking about overturning brexit, rejoining the its much ado about the eu. Its much ado about nothing. As for this story in the guardian about unite launching a red wall push for more radical labour policies, well, all i can say is they wont get anywhere because the days a powerful days when unite were a powerful force in the labour party are oven force in the labour party are over. However, reassure over. However, let me reassure you, anti net zero is in the studio tonight that one of one of unites policies , one of of unites policies, one of unhes of unites policies, one of unites policies is to overturn labours commitment to not not having any more north sea oil licences as indeed that is a policy pursued by another Major Labour Party union, the gmb. But labour party union, the gmb. But again, much ado about nothing. Again, much ado about nothing. The that labour. I agree with the that labour. I agree with neil on this actually starmers government will be incredibly centrist and in most things it wont be much different from the sunak government. However, is there trouble brewing for keir starmer . I will give him credit that hes demonstrated some degree of political ruthlessness evicting Jeremy Corbyn, a totemic figure from the party tackling anti semitism and fair play. He has made labour well. I dont know if he has tackled anti semitism. Theres a group of left wing, a left wing jewish group whove actually accused labour party of accused the labour party of anti semitism in itself in the in the way theyve expelled many of the people whove been expelled, supposedly for anti semitism lo and behold, anti semitism are lo and behold, themselves jewish. Well, there you go. This is, of course , a complex area, but i of course, a complex area, but i think it can be widely agreed hes made progress on that issue , to , rehabilitated the party to a certain extent terms of the certain extent in terms of the scourge, smear of. Scourge, the smear of. Hes almost entirely but hes almost entirely wiped out anything to do with palestinian rights in terms of labour policy, which was always an important strand of labour policy , no matter where you policy, no matter where you stood in the party. Its now become verboten. I mean, the labour party has become more cautious on middle cautious on the whole middle east issue than the left in east issue than the left is in israel. Israel. However, i think that youre wrong to gloss over this story in ft about a better in the ft about a better collaboration with the eu and smooth the trade. And ill tell you why. Because lets look at the substance. Youre about the substance. He announced more substance. He announced more details week of the details this week of the solution for the illegal migrant crisis in the channel, and that was to do a deal with the eu that would involve accepting a quota of upwards of 100,000 migrants into the governments figure. Not his. Not his. Well, right, but put together, if youre going to do that labour is the eu failed to get rid of sorry of course. Of course. But if youre going to do a deal eu, if youre do a deal with the eu, if youre going collaborate going to collaborate with brussels over migrants, youre once handing sovereignty once again handing sovereignty back european nations. Back to our european nations. When a deal with well, when you do a deal with anybody and anybody about anything and brexit governments are going to be doing deals with people all over the world. That was part of the of brexit. You the idea of brexit. You inevitably, you hand of inevitably, you hand a bit of sovereignty side sovereignty to the other side and you get bit of sovereignty and you get a bit of sovereignty over. In of the over them. But in terms of the migrant crisis, look, this government has failed to do anything about it. Do you really anything about it. Do you really believe rwanda or barges believe that rwanda or barges off portland . Bill are the answer to the whole migrant issue . What starmer is trying to do is hes trying. Hes hoping that hell get on better with the europeans and this to the europeans and this going to see macron is perhaps part of that. Hell get on better with the europeans and they will be more do a deal that more inclined to do a deal that means that more prevention of migrants crossing the channel illegally in boats and at the same time, we will agree to take migrants that cross the mediterranean. Neil a deal with the eu to fix the crisis. The only solution there is absolutely no question that the eu is not going to do us any favours whatsoever and macron is delighted to export all his Illegal Migrants from italy to britain, and he has no intention whatsoever of doing any kind of deal , he whatsoever of doing any kind of deal, he said. Anyway, this is brussels responsibility, not his, because youve got nothing to worry about. Well, no. What we do , we about. Well, no. What we do, we do have a lot to worry about, but because the current but thats because the current government is too supine to want to do anything about the European Convention human European Convention on human rights on rights or the Un Convention on refugees is the legal refugees, which is the legal underpinning of all these challenges to a policy which i agree with you, rwanda to do. If you come out of the convention on human rights, are you round up all you going to round up all the refugee or and put them in boats and land them on the shores of normandy . Normandy . What what i would do is yes. What what i would do is that would be against International Law at gunpoint. Are you this is the are you this is what the australians the australians did with the refugees from indonesia and it stopped. Bang, just like stopped. It bang, just like that. And that is exactly what we should do. The belgians have had difficulty whatsoever in had no difficulty whatsoever in stopping illegal migration across the channel from their ports, the french have no ports, but the french have no interest helping us because, interest in helping us because, of battle of of course, the battle of waterloo and memories go back a long way of the differences between us. And worst of all, of course, we saved them in 1940 and theyve certainly never forgiven us for that. But but macron anyway , is another macron anyway, is another globalist technocrat , and hes globalist technocrat, and hes he wants to punish us for having the temerity to leave the European Union and the whole of the European Union bureaucracy wants to punish us for. Brexit les autres, of course it might want to follow us. When you when you back back brexit. No, no. On the contrary. No, no. On the contrary. And you should have thought that its super hard. Its going to harder. Look, youve that its super hard. Its going to to harder. Look, youve that its super hard. Its going to to resolve rder. Look, youve that its super hard. Its going to to resolve rder. Whole ouve that its super hard. Its going to to recrisis, der. Whole ouve that its super hard. Its going to to recrisis, which fole youve that its super hard. Its going to to recrisis, which is e ouve that its super hard. Its going to to recrisis, which is onlyve that its super hard. Its going to toto crisis, which is onlyve that its super hard. Its going to toto gets, which is onlyve that its super hard. Its going to toto get worse h is onlyve that its super hard. Its going to toto get worse and onlyve that its super hard. Its going to toto get worse and worsee that its super hard. Its going to toto get worse and worse as going to get worse and worse as the decades to come, as the middle planet becomes middle of the planet becomes unbearable. Live on, live in. Unbearable. To live on, live in. And everybodys going to want to live with the eu on this issue. Involve us accepting. It will involve us accepting. It will accepting a will make a deal. Us accepting a certain migrants via. Certain number of migrants via. Think it will in the long i think it will in the long term, yes. I think it will in the long terr if yes. I think it will in the long terr if im. I think it will in the long terr if im being honest it, if im being honest about it, i how will brexit supporters how will brexit supporters think a policy like think about a policy like that . Well, think i think emma well, i think i think brexit be brexit supporters will be looking thinking looking at this and thinking exactly the thing me, exactly the same thing as me, which this bad under which is if this is bad under the conservatives, its going to be starmer. Be so much worse under starmer. As this comment that as neil said, this comment that he asked at he made when he was asked at westminster or davos and without a beat, he didnt miss a beat. He said davos because he believes more in his international all elite chums than he does in our nation and parliamentary democracy. He doesnt believe in our national institutions. He believes in international institutions. And i think he thinks that this this suggests that, you know, hes going on a tour and cosying up to internationalist mates , to his internationalist mates, but hes also got a strategy of trying to target red wall voters. So hes , to use david voters. So hes, to use David Goodharts terminology , erg a goodharts terminology, erg a nowhere trying to reach somewheres. And its just not going to work.

Well, my headline hero is john former head of john riley, the former head of sky who this week having sky news, who this week having left sky news expose , posed the left sky news expose, posed the pathetic , supine, compliant, pathetic, supine, compliant, weak way in which he , he and weak way in which he, he and other television bosses gave in to censorship by Buckingham Palace during the coronation and the palace has the right to veto certain images from that occasion. A public occasion, a state occasion forevermore. And theyve given in to that pathetic theyre not fit to hold office. None of them. I agree with with you on that one. One. One. What do you think about that . What do you think about that . Madness, isnt it . Thats madness, isnt it . That all broadcast media that i mean, all broadcast media should able to hold the should be able to hold the monarchy . Of course, monarchy to account . Of course, warts and all. Absolutely and we of course. Absolutely and we have in the past had absolute monarchies. We dont have an monarchies. We dont have an absolute monarchy anymore, thats for sure. But uh, certainly, as as a public institution, the monarchy should not be regarded as beyond reproach. And for broadcasters , reproach. And for broadcasters, i think to impose a self censorship is the worst form of censorship. I mean, what they should have doneis i mean, what they should have done is said, were not going along with this. And if you dont like it, wont cover dont like it, we wont cover the but of course the coronation but of course somebody and somebody would have caved in and covered i think and so netflix also, i think if yourself, if you if you expose yourself, if you expose as an institution, if you expose as an institution, if you expose yourself to scrutiny and accountability, expose yourself to scrutiny and acccmoreyility, expose yourself to scrutiny and acccmore popular you you more popular and give you more authority.

Is and listeners are my view is and listeners are not stupid, they know when the truth airbrushed truth is being airbrushed and mind say the mind you, it has to say the broadcasters were pretty pathetic during the period pathetic for during the period of the queens death as well.
