Sir james eadie, kc, representing the home office, told the court the home office, told the court the policy was safe and lawful , the policy was safe and lawful, all despite the east african country being less attractive to migrants than the uk. Its after the court of appeal ruled the policy was unsafe as there was a risk that rwanda could send migrants back to their country of origin. Us gb news. Across of origin. Us gb news.

Your first look at tomorrows papers. Im simon evans and im joined tonight by the posh and becks of the British Comedy circuit, nicholas de santo and bruce devlin. De santo and bruce devlin. Good evening. Obviously, youve been youve been designated posh. I guess, because youre wearing the tie, but also your slighter of build, you know, and id take it as a compliment. And then bruce is like yeah. And then bruce is like a hero and, you know, treasure. But not our nation, sadly, bruce , thats referring to. Bruce, thats im referring to. Yeah. Your own home. Yeah. Your own home. Yeah. Your own home. Do you much do you get do you get much do you get much home grown because much home grown support because we twitter feed. We monitor the twitter feed. I never really noticed but i never really noticed whether whether it shifts across the border youre on. The border when youre on. People like the i think some people like the fact that i really dont know what talking about. Yes what im talking about. Yes and that might be your constituency rather than a nationalistic yeah. Nationalistic one. Yeah. Yeah, i would say so. Yeah. But no, ive had some nice, nice had some nice, very nice comments social media. Find comments on social media. I find it comforting. Dont they . It very comforting. Dont they . They dont feel alone. They dont want to feel alone. Thats good. So lets a thats good. So lets take a look those front pages. The look at those front pages. The daily with hamas. Daily mail kick off with hamas. Well kill hostage for each israeli attack. And surprisingly , lets say those scenes are in kensington, the daily mail, hamas, sorry , the guardian. Hamas, sorry, the guardian. Next, israel declare hours siege of gaza as hamas threatens captives and an explosion there in gaza. The Financial Times next. Israel enforces complete siege of gaza further horrifying photographic evidence the telegraph israel no choice but to seize gaza. The and the i has to seize gaza. The and the i has hamas threat to execute eight hostages as israel prepares ground invasion. The star has ground invasion. The star has thin edge of the veg once again an outlier. Those were your front pages as. So lets begin front pages as. So lets begin with the daily mail. Nicholas well, of course, the news is still very much dominated by the dramatic conflict in israel , and dramatic conflict in israel, and we have an image of demonstrators in kensington in front of the Israeli Embassy, the title says, how can the british left make excuses for a terrorist group that murders women and children . Obviously, as usual , the palestinians and as usual, the palestinians and in particular hamas enjoy some sort of solidarity or sympathy among the west. It kind of beggars belief. We were just heanng beggars belief. We were just hearing in our own gb news bulletin demonstrators, pro palestinians chanting israel is a terrorist state, just as weve seen images of people being dragged out of their homes, their cars gunned down and in some more disconcerting cases, million agents or terrorists actually celebrating over their naked dead bodies, or they say and the occupation. Well, ive got news for these people. Israel did end the occupation of gaza and they elected hamas. So the pro israeli argument or counter argument would be, okay, i did end the occupation of that bit. Im still occupying west bank, but who gives me who guarantees my security . If guarantees my security . If i were to leave that part as well as often happens when these things escalate , it makes things escalate, it makes everyones position that much more intractable, doesnt it . Anyone who was 5050, about whether israel was right to put up a security fence and 500 checkpoint will feel a good deal less inclined to remove that fence in the near future. Turns out border walls do work. Yeah. Well , sometimes if they are well, sometimes if they are done properly, there are any number of questions , one of number of questions, one of which has to be did they how which has to be how did they how did intelligence fail . Did their intelligence fail . Dramatic . They so dramatic . How did they find themselves with various posts, so on . Posts, unmanned. And so on . I mean, they had they become lax. Its very hard to say. But but certainly i think there is a lot of justified anger at allowing this kind of demonstration outside the Israeli Embassy. Bruce, doesnt to a bruce, that doesnt seem to be a controversial point. I im really i just i just i find it all so appalling. I really do. I really do. I really do. I find it really scary and, yeah, i just one thing i know that people have said, nicholas, i dont know whether you have a view on this is that, you know, obviously the Israeli Palestinian conflict that has been going for , on you that has been going for, on you could say, since the establishment of israel, but the last ten, 15 years, the escalation there with hamas installed inside gaza and so on and the intensity of it, were seeing much more evidence that it has support in london and in the uk generally. Then i can remember, i mean, i dont obviously your memory will be different anyway. Growing up in the last century, there was there was never this sort of sense that, somebody sort of sense that, as somebody said, israel does something bad , then israelis and jews in london become threatened. You know, extra security has to be provided. And if something is done bad to israel, extra security is necessary in london to protect jews. Do you see what to protect jews. Do you see what i mean . It goes either way. And it just feels to me like this is quite a worrying trend in in london that there is a there is a significant contingent on who are pro palestine and not ready to apologise for anything that they do. Well, that is quite, quite alarming, isnt it, because we our overlords keep telling us that diversity is a strength and its cultural enrichment. At of this and and look at some of this and ironically, they define britain by tolerance. And these by its tolerance. And these people, them have people, most of them do have british passports because its enough for british passports because its encyears for british passports because its encyears in for british passports because its encyears in this for british passports because its encyears in this country. For british passports because its encyears in this country. Andir six years in this country. And you get british passport. You get a british passport. Right. They say britain is right. And they say britain is because no longer define because we can no longer define ourself a nation by the ourself as a nation by the engush ourself as a nation by the english language by the english language or by the empire or by the industrial revolution, it was not revolution, because it was not carbon colonialism Carbon Neutral or colonialism because all of them were bad and were white supremacy. So we are tolerant. So where is the tolerant. So where is the tolerant. So where is the tolerant here . Because this is this terrorism attacking this is terrorism attacking civilians and taking hostages and celebrating over their dead bodies. And its quite its quite disappointing to see that even some some parties or some some some even celebrity is fail to recognise this and fail to condemn it. Moving on to the guardian , moving on to the guardian, bruce, what do they have similar lead well this is to do with the tory party conference, the Labour Party Conference where keir starmer is to promise new powers for all of englands towns and cities. He wants to kind of mix up devolution and give much more kind of regional representation and powers to councils , etcetera. And the biggest expansion of devolution since labour was last in power. He will pledge that councils and combined authorities would get more control over such stuff as housing and planning skills, energy, transport and the kind that are currently held by london, the West Midlands and greater manchester. So were looking at more mayors essentially i but then all the kind of i thought all the councils were kind of going an administrator. So im not sure where theyre going get them. Going to get them. Not riding the crest of its not riding the crest of a in terms of localised a wave in terms of localised municipal authority, dont municipal authority, i dont think. Municipal authority, i dont thirlt seems a bit more. It seems a bit more. It seems a bit more. It seems a bit more. I mean, some of these mayors, i dont know, people quite i dont know, some people quite they greater they think the greater manchester, name . Manchester, whats his name . Andy andy burnham. Burnham as hes created nice hes sort of created a nice little fiefdom for himself out there, you know, there, isnt he . But, you know, he big, major labour. He he was a big, major labour. He was was a labour hopeful was he was a labour hopeful before got in. I dont before corbyn got in. I dont know too much about it on the day to day running of the place, but that has always felt to me like a kind of its a natural environment. Greater manchester, its quite a sizeable community. It history its it has its own history and its own and i dont know how own culture and i dont know how many more places you can start scaling that down to. I mean, what nonnich , ipswich, what nonnich, ipswich, cambridge, know , there comes cambridge, you know, there comes a where think youve a point where you think youve got certain amount of got to have a certain amount of critical mass, havent you, to achieve and achieve any independence and have decent budget. Well yeah, have a decent budget. Well yeah, because well what theyre saying is that the tories levelling up is that the tories levelling up is just not working and it hasnt represented anyone and of course the big thing is the hs2 thing and that that seems to have gone off. So yeah , as i say, im really so yeah, as i say, im really not sure how theyre going to make it work because as i say, as they stand at the moment, they dont seem to be well, like birmingham did they not go into administration recently . Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, theyre terrible, terrible telegraph next i think thats right. Obviously we leave the israeli conflict out for now yeah and right at the bottom we have guy fox ditched by hard up council so we know 5th of november theyre going to make their money is round the corner and a lot of these hard up councils are basically skimping on bonfires which apparently on bonfires which are apparently its such a shame because guy fawkes obviously is a big story suggesting story of the history of the british nation, glorious pageants and so on. Exactly. Its fun for the kids. And as i was saying, we have so many of our cultural or historical identity this mantled or, you know , mothballed because of know, mothballed because of racism and also, of course, they now have halloween five days beforehand, which is arguably a bigger celebration for a lot of kids nowadays, makes more sense to them. They get to dress up in a costume. Costume. It was always a bigger celebration in scotland. I think it was because we had a thing called guising and whereas its this trick whereas now its all this trick or treat stuff, which is basically people just mugging you your door. Basically people just mugging you my your door. Basically people just mugging you my kids door. Basically people just mugging you my kids have always said my kids have always said halloween which halloween after christmas, which is obviously a purely capitalist, christmas, capitalist, but after christmas, halloween favourite halloween is their favourite houday halloween is their favourite holiday festival. Its holiday stroke festival. Its the get most excited the one they get most excited about. I would say it about. I think i would say it kind of works for young kids in a but fawkes was a way, but guy fawkes was always, course , slightly always, of course, slightly problematic, its more problematic, but its more inspiring, burning inspiring, literally burning a catholic. I mean, you know, he was wrongun, no question was a wrongun, no question about it. You know, hed asked for had it probably for it, but it had it probably was installed in to order maintain the kind of religious bigotry, whereas halloween is its spookiness, suppose its just spookiness, i suppose maybe what im allowed to maybe thats what im allowed to be a bit cynical. Maybe thats what im allowed to be idit cynical. Maybe thats what im allowed to be id say nical. Maybe thats what im allowed to be id say some of these id say some of these councils that spend thousands on colouring crossings colouring pedestrian crossings into they into rainbow flags, maybe they could some money could have saved some money there it on guy. There and used it on guy. I do think even though its only half an hour, there only over in half an hour, there is something lovely about a large, large crowd people large, large crowd of people gathered on a hillside, isnt there watching, magic there watching, watching magic unfold you know, unfold in the sky. You know, its sad to think that might go forever because once they stop doing couple years doing it for a couple of years in row, it will just bump back in a row, it will just bump back and bounce finish off with the daily star. Very quickly. Bruce. Of the wedge. This is Heston Blumenthals a dish of vegetables stew, a celery stew in his restaurant is retailing at £40 per head. Wow. Wow. Wow. The cost of living crisis and that used to be a diet because apparently it has less calories than it takes to digest or something, isnt it . Yeah, i think thats a load of rubbish. Like the one about the its like the one about the grapefruit the eggs. Grapefruit and the eggs. Like a very niche that sounds like a very niche activity. That the front activity. That is the front pages covered. Join us in a couple dip couple of minutes for a dip inside we have hunt versus reeves. Judge dredd versus shoplifters. Ramen versus braverman. Well see radio. Welcome back to headliners. Your first look at tomorrows papers. Im simon evans and im joined by nicholas de santo and bruce devlin. So the daily mail to kick us off with this section. Nicholas and this is one way to avoid school detention, but its not ideal, obviously not. Jewish school cancels London Jewish School cancels detention and tells students they have to wear blazers they do not have to wear blazers as metropolitan police as the metropolitan police confirmed. They will be increasing patrols outside schools provide reassurance schools to provide reassurance after a spate of anti semitic attacks. So, yes, sadly, as we attacks. So, yes, sadly, as we were discussing , the police are were discussing, the police are ramping up security and this school has told the people or the pupils or their pupils, the pupils, parents rather. Okay. Blazers optional because they dont want to be too identifiable or easy targets. Identifiable or easy targets. I suppose the obvious thing to say is are the blazers obviously jewish . I dont know what i mean. Obviously jewish . I dont know whati mean. Perhaps obviously jewish . I dont know what i mean. Perhaps the school is known in the area , but i is known in the area, but i wondered what the iconography might have been on the badge. Right. Okay sort of thing. But obviously we didnt get any images or i mean there there are all mean there are there are all kinds of ways in which, you know, people who are intent on causing damage might be able to isolate and identify people. Think the run i would think the school run is to be is probably going to be monitored closely. But monitored quite closely. But i dont know why their detention thing maybe thing is. Perhaps because maybe that increases the number of hours people pupils are. Hours people pupils are. Theyre kept together. Theyre kept together. Its one interesting thing. A lot of people shared a picture of a kosher restaurant that had had its windows smashed, but apparently theyre treating that had its windows smashed, but apja rently theyre treating that had its windows smashed, but apja burglaryeyre treating that had its windows smashed, but apja burglary rathereating that had its windows smashed, but apja burglary rather thang that had its windows smashed, but apja burglary rather than athat had its windows smashed, but apja burglary rather than a hate crime. Yeah, there have been different different incidents. Again, unfortunate that again, its unfortunate that at some echelons of the establishment or the media, like novara media, for example, here, notoriously a left wing outlet. Notoriously a left wing outlet. But one of their editors has said the first day of this war has to be celebrated for all supporters of democracy and human rights. I dont know if they know if they have checked how hamas treats their beloved Lgbt Community gaza strip. Its so strange, isnt it . The kind of cognitive dissonance youre intersectionality hierarchy. So all the members of hierarchy. So all the members of novara media, one way or another, essentially tweeted support of palestine and i think she was the you know, the most extraordinary to actually say it was a day of celebration rather than it was in some respects justified by years of oppression and occupation. I think theyre honest, some of them, but is extraordinary. Of them, but is extraordinary. And these people continue to be invited on to bbc, newsnight and so to give views and so on to give their views about gb should be about whether gb news should be ca
