Hello and welcome to headliners im leo kearse taking you through sundays top stories for the next hour. And im joined tonight by the peoples chairman paul cox. Hello. And the peoples karen created a wind that seems unfair. You havent seen me complaining at starbucks paul i could carrying it with the best of them. Good. Good. Okay, well, lets have a quick look at sundays front pages. The mail on sunday leads with turncoat mp asked minister to pull strings for husbands sex abuse trial. Weve got that later. The sunday telegraph has later. The sunday telegraph has Civil Service diversity roles to be scrapped. The observer leads with terrified families flee rafah as israel set to open all out assault. The sunday express has labours £225 council tax bombshell. The sunday mirror has helen my psychosis. Hell, im not sure who helen is. And not sure who helen is. And finally, the daily star. And sunday has strictly come dark. Sunday has strictly come dark. And those were your front pages. And those were your front pages. And lets have a closer look at those front pages. Starting with the cover of the sunday telegraph, which has that story about diversity hires being scrapped. Paul. Yeah. Civil Service Diversity roles to be scrapped. Huzzahi unbelievable stuff. In an unbelievable stuff. In an overhaul aimed at ending the back door politicisation of the Civil Service, mandarins will be ordered not to hire staff dedicated to boosting diversity , dedicated to boosting diversity, equality and inclusion. And i dont know about you, leo, or you, krista, but im a big fan of the Old Fashioned meritocracy. Absolutely. Paul. I went to see a guy called alex edmonds presenting, doing a sort of book toun presenting, doing a sort of book tour. This is a guy whos written a book called may contain lies, and hes a guy, an academic whos looked into whether or not dei really benefits companies. And he had a lot to say about cognitive diversity, meaning not people in different colours. And like, what do people think, you know . Yeah diversity of thought. Can you imagine . I mean, theres none here. But but we are a minority. Were doing well to have some thought. Thought. Yeah. Yeah. But i mean, you know, i was a diversity hire of course, because im half man, half pig mixed bacon. If you will. But, you know, ill be i wont be sad to see the end of it just because it seems so forced. Yeah but it doesnt, by the way, it doesnt credit anyone but paul. Doesnt credit anyone but paul. This is just an end to explicit diversity roles , which, explicit diversity roles, which, you know, theyve done an investigation. Theyve found they cost those roles. Just they cost those roles. Just paying they cost those roles. Just paying the salaries of those roles cost £27 million. People might say, well, thats not a lot. But what those roles tend to do is then get in the way of the efficient, smooth operation of the rest of the organisation because, you know, as youve both pointed out, you cant hire on ability or meritocracy anymore. Youve got to hire according to diversity to ensure theres equal representation and, you know, straight white men are often bottom of the pile, not them aggrieved about that. But but the bloomberg the Business News place did a did a survey and they found that of all the jobs created in america since, since the blm, activist stuff kicked off, only 6 went to went to straight white men. Which is quite bad news for all of us, though, isnt it . Because the company level, they scream and shout about their prejudices and say, were trying to hire diverse people, and then at the individual level they say, no, this person definitely earned their place and they cant both be true. And so whats really happening is we might be missing out on some cracking hires. Yeah and we might be seeing, you know, the, the sort of competent crisis starting to happen we see with boeing, which has made a big song and dance about, you know, its diversity and inclusion. The its diversity and inclusion. The planes are now falling out of the sky because theyre not hiring based on ability. Please. Boeing gives the best engineers and pilots. Thats all we asked for. I couldnt care what colour they are. Yes, its the purple ones are good. Employ them. Yeah. It doesnt matter whether disney show because a disney show cant fall out of the sky and kill 300 people. So yeah, okay. Moving on. Christina, what have the observer got in the front cover . The observer has terrified families. Free russia as israel set to open all out assault. So another, this is ongoing. This another, this is ongoing. This is people fleeing from the north. Sorry. From from the rafah crossing. So 150,000, have now fled , but, you know, so some now fled, but, you know, so some people are saying, is this going to are israel going to start backing off because this is no longer look. Well, it never was. Its not looking good, to the rest of the world, but absolutely not. Netanyahu is saying well stand alone. Well fight with our fingernails. Fight with our fingernails. Yeah, hes hes not backing. They do have better weapons than that. Yeah. Yeah. From america. From america. So, i mean, its a harrowing image, thats for sure, specifically chosen there by the observer. Oh, the observer. What observer. Oh, the observer. What a grown up newspaper. However, there was a lot of notice given. So there is a, you know, to add some balance to this. There is a reason why hundreds of thousands of people have been able to flee. Now, im not suggesting for a minute that this is good. But, you know, we didnt we didnt let the people of dresden know that, we might be blowing them to smithereens. Yeah. I mean, the ira used to give a phone call. Yeah, yeah. Which, yeah, this this seems to be. Seems to be like. But, i mean, the military operation has unarguably, you know, not gone to plan and not been perfectly executed. I mean, hamas still arent destroyed. I mean, i assume theyve got this notice to move out of rafah. So its to move out of rafah. So its going to be difficult to kill hamas if they attack rafah now, the hostages havent been recovered. Not all the hostages, hostages and also World Opinion has turned against israel and even staunch allies such as america are now, i think i think theyre delayed an arms shipment. Yeah. Theyve just held back 3500 bombs. That because hes not backing down. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah. So yeah. Well there is a war of optics isnt there. And netanyahu is definitely losing that war. And in geopolitical politics, optics are, you know, 90 of everything. Yeah. And also hamas know this. So they use palestinians as human shields. They put their their weaponry, their rockets under hospitals, under schools , under hospitals, under schools, which is a really, you know, callous and cynical way of ensuring that palestinians get killed. Civilians get killed. So then theyve got the horrific images to parade in front of the world and say, look what israel is doing, when in fact, hamas are absolutely responsible. So yeah, horrible stuff. Moving on. What the sunday express got on the front cover poll. Socialism is on its way. Labours £225 council tax bombshell. So this is angela rayners, french style plan to boost union rights will hurt families, according to the sunday. But it wont hierarchies. But it wont hierarchies. She says her brother lives there so she doesnt have to pay it or something. Yeah, she doesnt actually live there. Leo just asks one of the neighbours who said she was a flipping wally , labours a flipping wally, labours pledge to boost trade union rights would cost the average householder an extra £225 per year , this report warns. Year, this report warns. On the plus side, we might get some train strikes, you know. Yes. I mean, essentially this is about levelling up and introduction of legally binding pay introduction of legally binding pay levels. So you know, back to the good old days in the late 70s before they turned off all the power. Right. So this is this is going to ensure that Public Sector people get paid more. I dont want that. I dont want why cant the market set the rates if you wouldnt pay £225 to campaign against this, wouldnt you . Oh, id pay £225 wouldnt you . Oh, id pay £225 to do to do the opposite to lower Public Sector pay. This is i mean, this is this is ridiculous. And we just saw there was a story on the front cover of the sunday telegraph. Labour also have plans to put drones in the sky, to measure the size of your garden and make you pay the size of your garden and make you pay tax on it. Theres no escape, you cant drive anywhere. You cant even go and sit in the garden, drink a gin and tonic. Labour are going to hammer you over the head with tax. Im going to get a job in the Civil Service, get a guaranteed pay Civil Service, get a guaranteed pay rise and a big old garden. Ive got some horrible news for you, paul. I very much doubt youre going to get a job in this. Ill have to wear a wig. Ill have to wear a wig. Im going to install an israeli air defence system in my back garden to shoot down drones. Thats what im going to do. Finally, cresta, whats in the front cover of the daily star . Strictly come dancing . So apparently craig revel horwood, whos on that dancing show, knows a lot about ballroom. He wants to get a dance person on. And so the assumption is that that will be teen hero luke the luke littler, who we heard quite a lot about a while ago. Its a very glitzy jacket on in this photo. Yeah. So thats photoshopped. Yeah. Its got to be well i dont i dont i mean darts players are known for having a specific physique arent they. Which isnt typically that of a ballroom dancer. How dare you. Well you may not like it, cresta, but that is peak physical condition. Hes going to be a brave and stunning contestant, possibly on strictly come dancing by the way, the knows a lot about ballroom joke deserved a lot better. I hope youre laughing at home about that for craig revel horwood, but , home about that for craig revel horwood, but, i mean, what do you say . Itd be great to see darts in the dancing, wouldnt it . I mean, i wont watch the dancing. I do like the darts though. Hes a great player, phenomenal player. Leo. Yeah, well he won. Yeah, yeah, hes good at throwing darts. And you know what . Thats what we value now. Yeah. Thats you know, if it wasnt a dihya was he. No it wasnt wasnt pure meritocracy. Wasnt wasnt pure meritocracy. Thats the thing. And you see this in sports. The you know you dont have a completely equal representation of, you know, women and men as the top darts players and all the top darts players and all the rest of it. And, you know, because its a meritocracy. No, women do compete in the mens, darts. Yeah. Thats right. Yeah. So youre in charge. Dont forget that. And youve got a brain so sorry carry on. Are you saying that i just got the ball joke i didnt even make . Oh, really . Oh, really . I thought you did. Sorry chris. Well, hopefully one of you can explain it to me. Anyway, can explain it to me. Anyway, thats the front pages looked at. Join us in part two, where well be discussing the migrant exodus to ireland , labours exodus to ireland, labours dangerous tweets and biden is up to his old tricks. See welcome back to headliners. Your first look at sundays newspapers with me, leo kearse and gbs. Very own answer to and gbs. Very own answer to donny and martha. Paul cox and christine whitten. Who are donny and martha . Thats a nice. No, i and martha . Thats a nice. No, i do it. Should we should we let covid. I know its the reindeer. Baby reindeer. Oh yes. Ive not seen it yet. People keep telling me i should watch that. Yeah, apparently. Ill start telling you bits of it through your bedroom window when im standing outside it. Apparently. Yeah. Carry on. Apparently. Yeah. Carry on. Apparently. What . No. Thats spicy. Men in comedy do get, spicy. Men in comedy do get, followed by crazy women. Right . Okay just not us. Anyway, kicking things off with the sunday telegraph and streamings tweeting has left hull herself. Paul right. Brilliant. Lovely so wes streeting put me in danger with tweet says susan hall in her first interview since the election, the tory mayoral candidate says shes been left feeling unsafe on public transport. Im not quite sure shes described what wes streeting said as despicable , streeting said as despicable, and what he did say was a win for susan hall and the conservatives is a win for racists. Bingo white supremacist and islamophobes the world over. I mean, lets have this right. Those are dangerous comments because what is he essentially saying there is to say that everyone who voted against ulez or for less knife crime. Yeah, a safer london is a racist, a white supremacist or an islamophobe. Whereas you are a walley mate. I think whats happened is wes streeting has made it very dangerous for him to go on pubuc dangerous for him to go on public transport because he might run into you and you. Might run into you and you. Well, luckily hes a champagne socialist, so its limos everywhere , uber exotic, limos everywhere, uber exotic, you know what i mean . Yeah. I mean, like, i think its ridiculous to say, you know, a vote for her is a win for racist White Supremacists and islamophobes. I mean, lucky guess, but its a terrible its a terrible thing to see. And it should be. You know, the idea behind hate crime is that if you Say Something to somebody that huns Say Something to somebody that hurts their feelings and also can target them, lead to them being discriminated against or attacked in some way, thats exactly what wes streeting has done. So calling someone a racist when theyre not should be a hate crime. Its almost qualifies for the Old Fashioned kind of hate crime. You know, the ones before all the hysteria of late. I mean, its not an incitement to violence, but you could see its on the way towards that, isnt it . Yeah. And by the way, anyone who has got their ear to the ground in london knows that a lot of muslims vote against sadiq khan. Theyre not big fans of sadiq khan. Yeah. So that makes that makes a lot of muslims. Islamophobes. Yeah. And White Supremacists. Good on him. Well, yeah. Good on him. Well, yeah. Theres a comedian, nabeel , theres a comedian, nabeel, abdul rashid, great comedian, but he does a joke thats basically , hinges on, sadiq not basically, hinges on, sadiq not being a, not being enough, not being a, not being enough, not being a, not being enough, not being a real muslim. Its very, very funny joke, anyway, weve got the observer now with worrying signs that the clampdown on migrants is hurting honest workers and not the people that you might wanted to target. Chris revealed thousands of innocent and abandoned migrant care workers told to leave uk. So this is about people whove been threatened with deportation despite doing nothing wrong. After the home office took enforcement action against their employers. Or in other words, people have been scammed by agencies whove extracted a lot of money out of them, got them to uk, told them theyre going to sort out all their visas and everything, and theyre not done it because theyre not done it because theyre criminals. And at the point where this gets discovered, the people, the workers are given 60 days to find a new sponsor, which sounds i mean , i dont know, a couple i mean, i dont know, a couple of months. Its not theyre not immediately if theyve got a job, then, you know, couldnt the job that theyre doing be their sponsor. No. Because thats a very good. No i think i think the agency is employing them. You know, like if youre a temp then you. Yeah. So i think thats the problem, and the people creating these situations to be fair to the observer, they dont face any, they dont face anything other than losing their license for overseas sponsorship. So that doesnt seem right, does it . Meanwhile, seem right, does it . Meanwhile, these people whove whove put in all thei
