[00:02:03] in of Trump has announced a historic deal with of Greenland and [00:02:03] of Denmark. European [00:02:04] of leaders clearly didn't [00:02:05] of read the art [00:02:06] of the [00:02:06] of deal, [00:02:08] of and of you a get so tired of reading and seeing fake news. You are fake [00:02:11] news. The only one that likes to keep it going is the [00:02:14] of fake news. If the [00:02:15] of of a fake a news of would like to go back and take a look, you can. I got a lot of heat from the fake news. [00:02:19] of Look at all [00:02:19] of them back there, [00:02:23] of still on [00:02:23] of president Trump, he [00:02:24] of has banned what he dubs, the fake news journalists from the White House. Is this [00:02:28] attack on free speech or? just taking out the [00:02:31] of trash, [00:02:32] of also [00:02:40] in of [00:02:43] wow, in scenes that could be from [00:02:47] of a literal war zone, shots in of fired in the migrant camps of Sutar in Spain, I'll [00:02:51] of bring you the [00:02:52] a latest, then he [00:02:53] of said, a we'll of forget her soon [00:02:57] in of of enough, after stun silence, [00:02:58] of I said, I cannot believe you just said [00:03:01] that. We are expecting [00:03:06] of of in further bombshell of of revelations from Earl Spencer's shocking new book, tonight, can it get any worse [00:03:10] for the palace? Joining me tonight, former [00:03:13] of Conservative [00:03:13] of of in MP Louise Mench, journalist and broadcaster Benjamin [00:03:18] in of a of of Butterworth and Reform UK counselor Jamie [00:03:20] of Mkhiver. a But, before we get started, ladies and gentlemen, it is my [00:03:23] unfortunate [00:03:24] a duty to check in with the Libdem conference. We [00:03:29] of of of care, we [00:03:31] of a fight. of We care, we fight, we [00:03:34] of care, in we of fight, that's [00:03:36] of [00:03:39] of right. [00:03:47] of of of President Trump has agreed to [00:03:51] deal with Denmark and Greenland, giving the US permanent military rights [00:03:55] a on of the strategically [00:03:56] of vital Arctic Island. Under the agreement. [00:04:00] will have permanent [00:04:01] of [00:04:01] of access to [00:04:02] of greenland [00:04:02] of as well as the ability to establish [00:04:05] of of of additional military [00:04:06] of installations when needed, without requiring [00:04:09] of [00:04:09] of approval from [00:04:10] of [00:04:10] of of Denmark or [00:04:10] of Greenland. The deal also shuts China and Russia out of [00:04:14] of establishing military bases [00:04:19] of of me in or stationing troops in in Greenland. It further restricts adversaries from [00:04:20] in investing in sensitive sectors that [00:04:22] of could threaten US national [00:04:24] of security. of [00:04:24] of Perhaps most significantly, it [00:04:26] of allows the US to invest in those [00:04:29] of of same sensitive sectors. including [00:04:30] of Greenland's extensive but largely untapped and extremely difficult to [00:04:34] extract deposits of rare earth minerals. [00:04:37] of Trump said, [00:04:37] of on truth social: for over 100 years, presidents have known [00:04:41] the strategic importance of Greenland, but none [00:04:44] a of them were able to do anything about it. [00:04:46] a I'm [00:04:46] of proud to be the president that [00:04:48] of permanently a and a conclusively addressed this very important [00:04:52] of of situation. This is [00:04:53] of infinite life agreement. There is no [00:04:56] end. So, what have we learned? [00:05:00] from Donald Trump's latest [00:05:01] of lesson in the art [00:05:02] of the deal. Well, for starters, European leaders aren't so much paper [00:05:06] tigers as [00:05:08] of papers. of The bark wasn't particularly frightening in the first [00:05:11] a place, of and there was never. bite behind it. Here was Emmanuel Macron, [00:05:15] completely misunderstanding the strategic objectives behind Trump's [00:05:18] rhetoric. In few words, [00:05:22] everybody think in France, in the [00:05:25] European Union that Greenland is not to be [00:05:29] sold, not to be taken. And [00:05:33] here was Kies Starmer in the commons, remember him, this was shortly before [00:05:36] deploying a single military officer to Greenland in January [00:05:40] 2026 as part of a joint. European reconnaissance mission, [00:05:44] assuming the bloke had two functioning legs, I guess it was technically [00:05:48] boots on the ground, future of Greenland is for the [00:05:51] people of Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark [00:05:54] alone. I will not yield. [00:05:58] Britain will not yield on our principles [00:06:01] and values about the future of [00:06:04] Greenland. Second, the US [00:06:08] is the only western country taking the twin threats of Russia and [00:06:12] China. seriously and actually willing to do something about them, [00:06:16] rather than simply winging about international law. Andy Burnham [00:06:19] doesn't seem to think that national security should come at the expense of social [00:06:23] security, meaning that money is better off going to third world migrants [00:06:27] and mental health grifters than manufacturing missiles. [00:06:31] Even though he still stressed, national security is the most important [00:06:35] duty of this government. Well, talks cheap. Even the [00:06:38] Canadian Prime Minister said he was aligned with China, yes China. on [00:06:42] the issue of Greenland discussions uh with uh with President [00:06:46] G about the situation uh in Greenland, about our [00:06:50] sovereignty uh in the Arctic, about the sovereignty [00:06:53] of uh the people of Greenland and the people of Denmark uh and [00:06:57] I found much alignment. Most [00:07:01] significantly, say what you want about Trump, but he [00:07:04] continuously and ruthlessly acts in his nation's [00:07:07] interests, even when those interests clash with the liberal, [00:07:10] progressive, rules-based or... [00:07:17] It feels like every day report on another british policy that is [00:07:21] so obviously intended to benefit someone other than the British [00:07:25] people, illegal migrate handouts, net zero madness, [00:07:28] welfare for foreigners, foreign aid to third world countries, just [00:07:32] to name few. this deal is in America's [00:07:35] interests, complain all you want if you don't like it, but trump is [00:07:39] doing his job. I just wish leaders had the same [00:07:43] mindset. Let's get the thoughts of my panel. Jamie, I'll go [00:07:47] to you first on this, what did you make the deal announced today? Well, I [00:07:51] think first of all, it just shows that whatever people think or say about [00:07:55] Donald Trump, he is a man that does put his country first, he is very much [00:07:59] America first, he is also a man that is prepared to uh [00:08:02] negotiate something that I think a lot of world leaders [00:08:06] struggle to do, including sadly our own leaders here in [00:08:09] Britain. What I think Trump has achieved. is basically what he [00:08:13] wanted to achieve for America, um, I actually think it's a good deal probably for [00:08:17] Greenland, for their own personal security. I'm sure they're not sitting there worried [00:08:21] about the additional security that they're going to have as nation, um, but I [00:08:24] think what has been quite exposing is how some other [00:08:28] western leaders responded, you mentioned the Canadian Prime Minister, I I [00:08:32] think it has been quite embarrassing for certain western leaders to not actually be [00:08:36] prepared to have sit down and talk about the wider security of that [00:08:40] part the Atlantic, there is reason... the Americans and Trump [00:08:44] wanted to get some sort of security in Greenland, they obviously have some [00:08:48] intelligence, they also have, I think probably better understanding [00:08:51] the uh threat that China and Russia poses to the west than any [00:08:55] other uh country in the world, so I think that it's a bit [00:08:58] embarrassing that other leaders didn't take the whole concept a bit more [00:09:02] serious, but ultimately Trump as always has got his own way, but here's the thing, [00:09:06] they did take parts of what Trump said seriously, they took the bombastic rhetoric [00:09:10] seriously, they took the attack on what... they see as the rules-based [00:09:14] international order seriously, but so many them care more [00:09:17] about those particular principles and the hurty words and the nazi [00:09:21] rhetoric from trump, someone like an ed who [00:09:24] we just checked on before as another classic example, then the actual [00:09:27] strategic goals and particularly the fact that a dangerous world now, this [00:09:31] stuff matters, this geopolitical stuff matters and it doesn't seem like they are actually doing much about it, and [00:09:35] Trump is absolutely, and I think what's key about this is that the [00:09:39] Danes are thrilled with this deal, it isn't a deal, it's... actually [00:09:42] fantastic deal, I really applaud Marco Rubio for working it out, and in complete [00:09:46] secrecy may I say, everybody thought that Denmark and America were a complete log [00:09:50] aheads and now they're throwing roses at each other, they're all [00:09:53] ecstatic. What has Trump got out of it, he's got the right to control these [00:09:57] minerals, which he wanted, he's plugging security gap, what's Denmark got out of it, the [00:10:01] sovereignty of Greenland is sacrasant, there's no problem for NATO, and what [00:10:05] he's really giving them is enormous security guarantees, he knows [00:10:08] now that there's other country other than the United States in practical terms that... can get [00:10:12] those rare earth minerals out the ground, and anybody wants to do it, they have to go [00:10:16] through Trump, he gets sign off powers. I also think it's important that he's [00:10:20] got for America the right to use these bases permanently without [00:10:24] anybody say... so that does include Denmark and he's done that [00:10:27] because so many European leaders, not Britain, I'm glad to say, have totally [00:10:31] shut him down using American basis over Iran, that's not going to [00:10:35] happen to him in Greenland, so I think overall it's a fabulous deal for everybody. And [00:10:39] Benjamin, on the Sunday five earlier, the expert there was saying he couldn't see a [00:10:42] big difference with the status quo, but to Luise's point, that ability to be [00:10:46] able to unilaterally extend their military bases and [00:10:50] military capabilities in the region without sign off, surely is very big [00:10:54] development if you are. us, well, I think it's less Greenland and more Donald Trump's [00:10:57] colon you're getting a good view of based on the sicker fancy of that [00:11:01] monologue. look, the starting point before he had this tamtrum [00:11:05] was not that Greenland or Denmark had a resistance to the US, they had a right to [00:11:08] have NATO strikes from there, they had a right to have bases, they had lots of [00:11:12] flexibility, and I suspect you would have got to the exact same result if [00:11:16] mature US president had gone to Denmark and said we need to do [00:11:20] this, because they never said they were against it. what you had in the meantime [00:11:24] was serious. breach of trust between NATO countries which [00:11:27] only helps our foes, but the US has strategically desired greater [00:11:31] influence in Greenland uh for 100 years. this has [00:11:35] always been a strategic priority and yet it hasn't happened. like you can say that well the strategic [00:11:39] rhetoric was the rhetoric was unnecessary, but he got the outcome he [00:11:43] wanted in the end. but that's [00:11:44] a ridiculous argument because the rhetoric undermined NATO, [00:11:47] undermined the alliances, it stressed and divided the countries that [00:11:51] should be together, when Denmark said at no point that it was a... [00:11:55] to the improving the relations and having more defense based in Greenland. It has [00:11:59] never disputed that, and indeed it has fluctuated and increased over many [00:12:03] presidents. I suspect that all of this could have been achieved without the division [00:12:07] that happened in the meantime. And who does that help? It helps Iran, it helps China, [00:12:11] it helps the people that want NATO to be weaker. I'm not so sure, Jamie, because if there [00:12:14] is any any cage that needs a good rattle, it is NATO's cage, [00:12:18] because we can all say, well, let's just sit down for responsible, sensible [00:12:22] conversations, that's all very well and good, but they didn't do. anything really on [00:12:25] defense spending until he started throwing out more forceful rhetoric? i would suggest the [00:12:29] only way to break Europe out their complacency is the type of donald trump [00:12:33] all guns blazing approach, which he does very well. well, the problem with all these global [00:12:37] institutions, they love to have the photo shoots the flags and the world leaders and the [00:12:41] conferences and the summits, but actually when you look at what's happening with global security right [00:12:44] now, not much action, not much [00:12:47] deterrance. i don't think for second that Putin looks at [00:12:51] NATO and thinks, i'm not sure i can rattle that cage, i actually think he looks. looks [00:12:55] at NATO and thinks, well, I wonder what would happen if, we see the [00:12:59] aggression coming from number of other um hostile states across the [00:13:03] world, and there hasn't been proactive defense from these nations, they all got very [00:13:07] custy, probably from about 2010 onwards, they started reducing what their [00:13:10] contributions, Trump came in and said, no, you got to pay your way, [00:13:14] why should American soldiers even get anywhere near your problems [00:13:18] if you're not prepared to pay your own way, many of those economies can afford to pay their own [00:13:22] way too, also lots of those EU states get lot that [00:13:26] other um members of NATO don't get, so there's a ridiculous scenario where [00:13:30] you've got this um institution that will set up to actually preserve [00:13:34] peace and be this amazing no attack on one is attack on all, but what we've seen in [00:13:37] reality is when America's called for help, few people got actually all not sure into [00:13:41] that. Donald Trump is the president that attacked British soldiers who'd [00:13:45] been killed, and JD Vance did the same by saying that they hadn't come [00:13:49] to to NATO's aid, where the only time it's ever been triggered was in [00:13:52] defense, stop talking. not [00:13:56] a [00:13:57] This is man who seriously cares about that institution. Only few weeks ago he said that Kim [00:14:01] Jong Run, the ruler of North Korea was a great man and a friend and [00:14:05] dropped sanctions on North Korea as they send thousands of soldiers to [00:14:09] kill Europeans in UK previous US administration [00:14:13] that is attacking a that is attacking a country that NATO is defending. [00:14:17] May I just say that look there is a big difference as you said at the beginning of your monologue between [00:14:21] Donald Trump's words which are off and offensive including about British troops. [00:14:25] and Donald Trump's actions. What he's actually done in Greenland is [00:14:29] massively strengthening NATO. Under Donald Trump we've added uh [00:14:33] Sweden and Finland to NATO and now we're putting many, many [00:14:36] thousands more American troops in Greenland. We used to call those security guarantees. They [00:14:40] are fantastic thing for NATO, so if you're giving a choice between [00:14:44] herty words and good deeds, I'll take good deeds every day the week and [00:14:47] twice on Sunday. On that on that I agree, and in the interest of [00:14:51] divorcing myself from Donald Trump's colon as then. [00:14:55] suggests, there is one thing which I would say is a bit fishy about [00:14:59] the timing, and that is that the midterms are not looking good for the Republicans, the Iran [00:15:03] conflict is not going in the way that Trump would have liked, some [00:15:06] people may argue that this is one big convenient destruction, that some people [00:15:10] might argue that um I'm sure there there's going to be some Republican [00:15:14] candidates might think, this could be really helpful, how can we possibly share this [00:15:18] news quickly, but I also think uh, just want to touch on Benjamin's [00:15:22] point there that you know to to criticize... Trump for trying to [00:15:26] not have a [00:15:26] war with North Korea is is actually a bit blind [00:15:30] that the a [00:15:31] the fact U.S. president went and crossed that border, isn't [00:15:35] that better for global security than [00:15:37] having administration? that want to keep provoking b, i'm not saying for a minute, i'm [00:15:40] not saying for a minute that i think that that's the best thing that's happened in the last [00:15:44] decade, but the point is, and do believe this, do believe president Trump is an [00:15:48] anti-war peace president, i think he believes in peace, do, i think that's his [00:15:52] conviction, now some actions might differ from that, do believe, do [00:15:56] believe, do believe he is a man that believes in defending his [00:15:59] country at all costs, putting America first, but do think and he won an [00:16:03] election on being a peace president did remind me [00:16:07] of... elections may vary from ask the [00:16:10] Iranians and and ask ask or petrol prices at the pump, i'm sorry but he [00:16:14] hasn't entirely been anti-w has he, he also didn't get everything he wanted from this deal, what [00:16:18] he really wanted was to an next Greenland and make it under American sovereignty, [00:16:22] let's not forget that that's now gone, did he though, or did he put out [00:16:26] a comment which he know would never actually come to fruition, so they would pull back to [00:16:30] a position that he was happy with, which is [00:16:31] the whole art the deal stick, i honestly think he genuinely wanted it, he was [00:16:35] exploring this in his first term, but he is deal maker and he knows that to make deal [00:16:39] sometimes you have to give up part of what you want in order to get the most of it, that's what he's [00:16:42] done. i want to pull this back here just to the UK, because again, [00:16:46] regardless of what you think about Trump, regardless of what you think about the [00:16:50] rhetoric, he has done something he obviously thinks is in the national [00:16:53] interest. i said in that monologue and i stand by that i don't think there [00:16:57] is the same mentality amongst European leaders and amongst this labor [00:17:01] government. well, i think the funding that many European countries have been putting [00:17:04] up has has gone up markedly and i really hope that in [00:17:07] to october do we in commit business. to go the that 3% and that John Healey finds the money, but [00:17:11] look, Donald Trump is a man that he wasn't talking about war with North [00:17:15] Korea, he was praising Kim Yongun as a friend as they send thousands of [00:17:18] soldiers to murder Europeans, which is what they've been doing in recent months, one or [00:17:22] two friends of mine have been in Pyongyang in the last year and they say it's getting richer than [00:17:26] they've ever seen it because it's getting rich off Russian money, how do you have friend in [00:17:30] Pyongyang? [00:17:33] I have I have, I have friends [00:17:35] that everywhere, they they've allowed few deals [00:17:37] people and they tell me that it's completely transformed because the Russian money flooding into North [00:17:41] Korea, those are not our friends. The fact that he seems to [00:17:44] find kind words to say to the Russian president, to say to the North [00:17:48] Korean leader while he attacks European friends is dangerous. I'll be getting the [00:17:52] team to investigate Benjamin Butterworth links to the North [00:17:55] Korean region, they're all in my phone, all [00:17:59] all all of all the favorites uh of uh the United Kingdom.

[00:23:29] Welcome back to Alex Armstrong tonight, with me, Will [00:23:32] Kingston. President Trump says he has banned CNN, [00:23:36] MSN now, and politico from the White House, citing [00:23:40] the very Trumpian allegation of fake news. You get [00:23:44] so tired of reading and seeing fake news. You are fake news. The [00:23:48] only one that likes to keep it going is... fake news, if the fake news would like to go back and take [00:23:52] a look, you can, I got a lot of heat from the fake news, look at all them back [00:23:55] there, so he's certainly [00:23:59] been consistent. journalists from these organizations were reported [00:24:03] to be blindsided by the ban as the president made the announcement on [00:24:07] truth social, justifying the ban in the oval office, the US [00:24:11] president told NBC's Kelly, Donald that he made his decision [00:24:15] based because all the outlets were misrepresenting his time in office, adding [00:24:19] they'd been dogged. by low ratings, these latest [00:24:22] decrees all come after President Trump moved in February of last year [00:24:26] to keep reporters from the associated press away from White House coverage [00:24:30] after the organisation decided against enacting his name changes for the [00:24:34] Gulf of America. So is this a proportionate act [00:24:38] by president long covered negatively by the liberal media [00:24:42] or is this simply assault on free speech. We are now [00:24:45] joined by journalist and Republican commentator Toria Brook and [00:24:49] Democratic. friends the show both, thank you very much [00:24:53] for joining me team, richard, [00:24:55] i will start with you, w this is perhaps a extreme example, [00:24:59] previous administrations have always preferenced in ways big and [00:25:02] small media organisations which they perceive to provide them with favorable [00:25:06] coverage, how is this any different? well trump gave the [00:25:10] game away will yesterday when he said [00:25:13] a quoting there's something wrong with a country that can allow [00:25:16] people excuse me to write negative. of [00:25:20] stories, this is classic textbook [00:25:24] violation of a first amendment, which does not allow viewpoint [00:25:27] discrimination, you can't say, I don't like what you're saying, and [00:25:31] therefore I'm going to discriminate against you, and the courts have [00:25:34] consistently said that, the white house could ban all the press, but once you [00:25:38] allow the media in, you can't say, I don't like you because of what you're [00:25:42] reporting, he's not even saying, he doesn't like [00:25:44] them because they're reporting things that are erroneous, he's saying he [00:25:48] doesn't like them because they're... and guess what, there's a lot of negative news [00:25:52] out there, the public doesn't like the iran war, they don't like inflation, [00:25:56] they don't like these tariffs, and the list goes on, but he doesn't like hearing it, [00:26:00] so therefore to him it's okay. is textbook first amendment [00:26:04] violation, if this goes to court, which I think it will, Trump will lose pretty [00:26:07] quickly. Victoria, is the first amendment violation? You [00:26:11] know, President Trump and members the administration, including the current FBI director Cash [00:26:15] Patel, have previously stated that the mainstream media is an enemy to the [00:26:19] American people. The White House can impose security requirements. The first [00:26:23] amendment does not guarantee that CNN or even Fox or AP or anyone else [00:26:27] has a permanent seat at every event. Trump has considerable authority over the logistics [00:26:31] the White House press access and First amendment doesn't guarantee [00:26:34] that every outlet is going to have a space. There are two cases I want to discuss that [00:26:37] set precedent regarding the press and the White House. Hochins versus [00:26:41] Kqed in 1978 set precedent as the first [00:26:44] amendment does not require that the government to give the press access to [00:26:48] information or places under government control. It is neither a freedom [00:26:52] of information act nor an official secrets act. [00:26:54] The press's court protection is the right to communicate information once [00:26:58] obtained, not a right to collect it from the government. Additionally, Sherill versus [00:27:02] Knight and 1977, [00:27:03] the year prior, set president because the case specifically dealt with white [00:27:07] house press credentials. now the court recognized the protection the president as an [00:27:11] extremely strong argument, giving secret service and considerable latter [00:27:14] latitude to deny credentials where journalists were present. um, [00:27:18] however, uh, this morning, the senior director of counter terrorism [00:27:22] Sebastian Gorka shared clip of politica literally defending [00:27:26] MS13 gang members, okay, in 20, no, I'm still going, in [00:27:30] 2017, Jake Tapper... CNN used manipulated [00:27:34] botched footage to push that Trump said that the white nationalists [00:27:38] and [00:27:39] the neonazis were fine fine people, which was a botched, [00:27:43] it was botched, I get the idea mast, I did study American constitutional [00:27:47] law at university, I was never particularly good at it, and so I want to move necessarily from [00:27:51] whether or not this is a constitutional violation, whether this is the right thing to do by [00:27:55] Trump, Richard, why do you think he is doing this if you peel back the [00:27:58] strategy? again, [00:28:01] I don't, is it bollock? the right word for nonsense, mean what we just [00:28:05] heard is utter nonsense, mean there's [00:28:08] no suggestion, even in Trumps deranged uh [00:28:12] tweets that these people pose a security risk, seriously, i [00:28:16] can't believe i just heard what i just heard, look, here's why it's a mistake, here's why he do, [00:28:20] he's doing it, because again he doesn't like [00:28:23] bad news and he's responsible, iran [00:28:27] war, tariffs and the list goes on, you look at the polls, you look at all the [00:28:31] indications about how the republicans going to do [00:28:33] in the midterms, he doesn't like anybody's reporting it, [00:28:36] and therefore he doesn't like these groups, but here's the problem with it, [00:28:40] putting the first amendment aside, not just that it's bad, [00:28:44] it's less journalism, and for less journalism, there's more [00:28:47] opportunities for corruption, and there's been plenty of those, it's [00:28:51] it, it chills the speech of reporters who haven't [00:28:55] been banned, because they know what could happen to them, and ultimately at end [00:28:59] the the day, checks and balances, having the press an act of... [00:29:02] press helps frankly keep the president from doing things that are [00:29:06] unwise, why he didn't talk about going into Iran before he [00:29:09] did, for example, or even discussing it with the American people, and you end [00:29:13] up with mistake after mistake after miss a Russian paying for his son's [00:29:17] wedding. That's the problem. Despite it being one of my favorite words, [00:29:21] I do have to apologize if anyone took offense to the language earlier in Richards answer, [00:29:25] sorry, [00:29:27] no, as I said, one of my favorite words, Toria, how do you respond to the accusation that this is really [00:29:31] just deflection from? some the problems that Donald Trump is facing at the [00:29:34] moment, well to address the gift that Donald [00:29:38] Trump Junior received for his wedding, he actually repaid him back, and [00:29:42] I want to continue because I didn't get to finish what I wanted to [00:29:44] say, [00:29:48] 2017, I'm going to [00:29:52] break, I'm the host, I [00:29:54] want you to answer the question, do you think this is deflection from the problems that Donald Trump is [00:29:57] facing? I don't think it's a deflection, I believe that he [00:30:01] has combatted. the actual fake news. In [00:30:05] 2017, 2021 and 2024, Rachel Matto [00:30:09] of MS Now admitted that there were half these statement shoes [00:30:13] making that weren't even true about Russia Gate, the Alpha Bankhoax with uh [00:30:17] Trump servers, and even stating that the [00:30:20] COVID virus stopped every vaccinated person from getting [00:30:24] sick. In 2024, she admitted the MS Now [00:30:27] and other outlets stopped giving a live unedited [00:30:31] platform to. president trump so she is still be examples of free [00:30:35] speech, even if it is misinformation, it would still be examples of free speech which you support the [00:30:39] difference is an opinion, an opinion versus outwardly false [00:30:42] information, the bbc [00:30:44] and other networks, the BBC and other networks used botched [00:30:48] footage in 2021 of President Trump trying to make it sound like he was [00:30:52] calling for violence on January 6th, which ended up being false because he actually [00:30:56] called for a peaceful assembly, so let me let me just he doesn't ban [00:31:00] the baby though, we just add to the fact that during [00:31:04] Biden's presidency, it dropped from around 1,400 [00:31:07] credential press to around 900 plus, okay? so [00:31:11] this is not an isolated situation. well, that's a fair point. rich. you might give [00:31:15] that? no, it's not, no, no, he, there's no [00:31:18] suggestion. look, people who are [00:31:22] in Trump quarter treat him like deity. god works his [00:31:26] wonders a mysterious ways, so he does something that's clearly unconstitutional, and then [00:31:30] people like where hearing go, try to interpret it in some adold [00:31:34] way to make sense out of it. i'm sorry, not [00:31:37] only, every court, this supreme court, which is very much in his hit [00:31:41] pocket, will given a choice will come down on him because this has. nothing to [00:31:45] do with how many credentials there were, the Biden people weren't banning [00:31:49] people because of viewpoint discrimination, probably there were less [00:31:52] interests, there's more interest in Trump because he talks more, he says crazy things [00:31:56] and that's newsworthy, so I'm sorry, will this is [00:32:00] really an open and shut case, but it's fascinating to me honestly to [00:32:04] hear somebody in Trump's corner make this case that [00:32:08] honestly bears very little relationship to the facts of this particular case. [00:32:12] well guys, good to appreciate both of you, tom. [00:32:16] coming up on the [00:32:16] show, [00:32:27] that was a tik tok video from an illegal migrant, they are laughing at us, now ladies [00:32:31] and gentlemen, i will reveal the true scale the illegal migrant [00:32:34] crisis, it goes way beyond the small boats, before that [00:32:38] shots were fired a stampede in suita, i will bring you all the latest [00:32:42] there, this is alex armstrong tonight with me real [00:32:45] kingston.

[00:36:42] Welcome back to Alex Armstrong. Tonight with me Will Kingston. Don't forget to get [00:36:46] in touch at Gbnews.com/yorsay. [00:36:50] Victor talking about the Greenland deal has said the Americans have [00:36:54] protected and looked after the whole of Europe since 1940. they are [00:36:57] sick and tired of paying for endless troops and arms to protect the euro dead [00:37:01] beats, go for a Donald, we are sick of our so-called leaders [00:37:05] too. well, that's to the point, victor, thank you for [00:37:08] that. the following pictures could be from a literal war [00:37:12] zone: it is the latest out the migrant camps of [00:37:16] suita. [00:37:34] Spanish police fired warning shots into the air and used tear gas [00:37:38] in attempts to control crowds of illegal migrants who had been sleeping [00:37:41] rough on beaches for weeks waiting to be relocated to an official camp in [00:37:45] the port area. Crowds repeatedly became impatient when only few officials [00:37:49] arrived to facilitate the move and began running towards [00:37:53] the new camp just before 7 a.m. on Friday. They there were not enough. [00:37:58] in the camp for all the migrants seeking a place prompt a [00:38:01] stamped. Spain's prime minister said that accommodation for up to [00:38:05] 1000 migrants is being prepared in Puta, adding that he hopes [00:38:09] the situation will be stabilised by the end the year. Oh [00:38:13] well, no rush then mate. We are now joined by Spanish political [00:38:16] strategist Rodrigo Bel. Rodrigo, good to see [00:38:20] you. Get me up to speed here, because if you only watched [00:38:23] the BBC or read the Guardian, I think you would have thought that most them went home. "most [00:38:27] these migrants went home after a day or two, the problem was largely [00:38:31] resolved, nothing to see here, there's a lot to see [00:38:33] there, yeah, it's exactly the the [00:38:37] contrary as you know what, what you what you have been told by by the the [00:38:41] mainstream media is exactly the opposite, the Spanish government [00:38:45] already 50 days ago said that the situation is back to normal, and [00:38:49] actually we can see from the footage, this is exactly the opposite, [00:38:52] what is going on here is that you know we knew that the Spanish government showed lot of [00:38:56] inaptitude and..." lot of ideological uh like [00:38:59] management, but now the question that the millions of [00:39:03] spiniers are asking themselves is whether the [00:39:07] spanish government is interested in solving the situation at all. you said it [00:39:11] in your introduction, mean the situation is supposed to remain like that until the [00:39:15] end the year, now they are going to find the settlement for [00:39:18] 10,00 people, is that a way to solve the situation? no, it's not. [00:39:22] yeah, as i have a want to do when i see footage of illegal [00:39:26] migrants, i'm trying. going [00:39:27] to see if I can see any women in this stamped, I think I may have seen one, possibly [00:39:31] out the hundreds, which goes to show the demographics here, this must be very [00:39:35] scary for the residents of [00:39:38] sutor, it has been [00:39:41] scary for 50 days, it has been scary since they [00:39:45] started the school two two weeks ago, and it remains [00:39:48] scary, sexual violence is soaring, criminality [00:39:52] is soaring, some spanish soldiers have been repatriated to [00:39:56] mainline Spain. because they have been wounded and since they have [00:39:59] instructions not to defend [00:40:02] themselves, so the prime minister [00:40:05] is, sorry, you just cut out there for second, but I was going to say [00:40:09] that the Spanish prime minister, is open borders socialist, has said that [00:40:13] accommodation for up to 10,000 migrants is being prepared in [00:40:17] Suta, he hopes the situation will be stabilised, that doesn't sound to [00:40:21] me like he's particularly intent on deporting these [00:40:23] men. [00:40:28] "exactly, this is exactly what is happening is that again he has no will, the [00:40:32] Spanish prime minister has no will to solve the situation, it's easy to solve [00:40:36] it, you just need to declare the state of emergency and then you have the legal power to [00:40:39] send them all back to Morocco, and by the way, Morocco, I don't know if in [00:40:43] good faith or not, but they are even claiming that they are ready to take them back one by [00:40:47] one, and so why is the Spanish government not doing that? again as I said at the [00:40:51] beginning, Alex is that does the Spanish [00:40:54] government want to solve the situation, this is..." question that now we can ask our [00:40:58] results 50 days later. yeah, so it [00:41:02] is terrifying chain of events, which again is largely being covered [00:41:06] up by the mainstream media. rodrigo, a pleasure to speak to you. thanks for your [00:41:09] time. thanks to you. let's go [00:41:13] to the panel. benjamin, i will start with you. as i [00:41:17] said uh, they would have you believe that this was largely [00:41:20] assault problem that was solved within 48 hours. there [00:41:24] is still a huge amount of unrest and huge amount. [00:41:29] violence [00:41:30] and and potential criminality [00:41:32] going right now yeah i was surprised to hear that there might be 1000 people still there [00:41:36] buse i got the impression from the news reports that [00:41:40] the what was it 60 or 70,000 that might have crossed had had been sent back? [00:41:44] mean, one thing it certainly shows is that it's possible to to send people back because that's [00:41:48] what Spain was able to do in the days after it, but mean well most the [00:41:51] well again, i now don't really know what to believe if we look at that footage, [00:41:55] but what was suggested was lot them went back their own volition? yeah, [00:41:59] mean the prospects probably aren't great if they stay there, i can understand why the [00:42:03] people in sueta feel so concerned, it's a very small place, is that true? it sounds like [00:42:07] they're just going to be relocated into accommodation which the... prime minister is sitting up for [00:42:11] them. I mean, I would suggest if they can relocate them into accommodation, then they [00:42:15] can take them home from that accommodation. I would agree, listening to Annie Burnham. [00:42:18] Louis, what do you make of it? Uh, look, Pedro Sanchez, the prime minister of [00:42:22] Spain, is ardent, unrepentant socialist, and this [00:42:26] is the fruits of socialism. He, I think, lied to everybody in [00:42:30] Europe when he said that he sent them back to Morocco, of course he didn't. If they were voluntarily [00:42:34] willing to go back to Morocco, they wouldn't have come over in the first place. Like you [00:42:38] say, these are all fighting age. um, there aren't women and children amongst [00:42:42] them, these are in my opinion, the scum the earth who leave the women and [00:42:46] children behind them in order to advantage themselves and what does Sanchez want [00:42:50] to do, instead of sending them back, goodness knows the Spanish army isn't doing anything at [00:42:54] the moment, instead of sending them back, he's got no political, well he's going to house [00:42:57] them, and that's why even the rest of Europe in like, maybe we should shut down the [00:43:01] Shengen treaty, when I look at that, I'm worried, I think once they've got [00:43:05] out of Spain, are they going to go through to France and be on the borders of Dover and come over [00:43:09] to us? "Spain's problem is our problem and Europe has to get a [00:43:13] grip its migrant crisis. Jamie, if you said national television even three [00:43:17] years ago that illegal migrants were the scum the earth, I think you would have [00:43:20] gotten uh, it would have been considered to be a bit spicy now, whether it's [00:43:24] in Puuta or whether it's in Great Britain, I think most people go, yeah, you know [00:43:28] what, I agree, well they come here, they sexually assault, rape [00:43:32] and murder British women, not all them we should have, of course, [00:43:36] many have, and I would suggest statistically disproportionate amount." [00:43:40] and we do not know which ones will which ones won't and therefore national security and the safety [00:43:44] of british citizens should come first, we shouldn't accept any them, they are not legitimate [00:43:47] silseekers, [00:43:48] they are economic migrants, but more to the point, the scenes you [00:43:52] see on that television that your viewers are seeing this evening, that will [00:43:56] be scenes in British villages like Piddington, like [00:44:00] Weathersfield, like Eping where I'm from, if we continue to house [00:44:03] hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of unvetted fighting age [00:44:07] males, if imagine if the 800... in Weaversfield in [00:44:10] Essex, near where I'm from, decide, [00:44:12] you know what, we don't want to be in here anymore, and they try to breach the confides of that place, which [00:44:16] they're free to walk out of anyway, you're going to see those scenes in [00:44:20] Britain, and the politicians, the political class in this country need to wake [00:44:24] up to the fact that hey, we need to stop the invasion, we need to rapidly [00:44:27] increase deportations, just like the Spanish prime minister, we are [00:44:31] accommodating these people, no, no, no, it's not about [00:44:35] accommodation, it's about deportation, Benjamin a portant of what is to come for [00:44:39] Britain. 'well, it's why I'm pleased we have labor government, [00:44:41] because the number of we've got to laugh at these [00:44:45] moments, that was a good one, the number of people coming across in [00:44:49] small boats has almost halved in the first half of this [00:44:53] year, the number of deportations is significantly up, the number of people being [00:44:57] given a right to remain has more than halved in the latest [00:45:00] years figures, so that's significant progress and I think that will also [00:45:04] continue to put people off making a decision like the Moroccans made to [00:45:08] sueta for the people that are consid'. the UK yeah, but I don't think that that [00:45:11] disincentive is there when we still know that the deportations [00:45:15] are going incredibly slowly, that you still have very good chance [00:45:19] of staying in this country if you arrive in this country, and most importantly you will [00:45:23] not be detained if you end up in this country, [00:45:25] the first place you're free to roam the streets, why won't this government detain illegal migrants? [00:45:29] well, I, for one, would introduce ID cards, which would make it much harder for these [00:45:33] people, I don't care what you would do, why wouldn't you [00:45:35] detail, the question, the question is, as [00:45:39] opposed to... big bureaucratic scheme to give everyone a piece of plastic, why wouldn't you detain [00:45:43] illegal migrants? well, it's 2026, so it be on your phone for most people rather than a [00:45:47] piece of plastic, but the fact is that one the pull factors to this [00:45:50] country is how easy [00:45:52] it is to go under the radar and make money, and so something like an [00:45:56] ID card scheme, which many, many former home secretaries agree would be [00:45:59] effective, would stop that happening, would stop that pull factor, [00:46:03] and would limit illegal immigration, [00:46:05] do you want to answer my question now? that was the answer, i thought you said you didn't [00:46:08] care, is an id card still doesn't stop the risk to [00:46:12] women and girls of sexual assault by some illegal migrants, why wouldn't you [00:46:16] detain them, which automatically would stop that risk. well, I'm quite happy for them to be [00:46:20] detained while they're processed, right? [00:46:22] and then you you're able to vet and assess the people that you allow to remain in the [00:46:25] country, this is what [00:46:27] the figures, more than half, it's been more than half the number of people that get a right to stay here [00:46:31] under labor, you must acknowledge that success, oh good lord, if that if [00:46:35] you think what we're seeing on the beaches of dover is success mate, [00:46:39] honestly i don't think anybody watching is going to agree with you, the fact is we've [00:46:43] given billion pounds to France, and I don't know that people even bother about [00:46:47] needing to work, and it's so easy to work, when they get ridiculous [00:46:50] benefits, free housing [00:46:52] pounds a week. free leasure and so forth and all this stuff is laid on for them, that's the pool [00:46:56] factor. this is what i don't understand, i think Benjamin very reasonably says, yes, think it [00:46:59] is probably appropriate to detain illegal migrants whilst they are being processed, and [00:47:03] i think most people think that that is reasonable, that was the Australian approach that was very effective, and [00:47:07] yet for some reason this government will not do it, i can't get my head around it. coming up, ladies [00:47:11] and gentlemen, erl Spencer, the brother the late Diana princess of Wales, has [00:47:15] doubled down on his shocking claims on the royal family [00:47:19] prior to the release of his upcoming book, further revelations. are to come in the [00:47:23] mail on Sunday, I'll have that next, [00:47:25] this is Alex Armstrong tonight with me, Will [00:47:27] Kingston.

I think there's a element of truth to that. It's joined me from 3:00 p.m. [00:50:19] every weekend, only on GB News. [00:50:26] I'm Tom Howard, this is GB News, Britain's news [00:50:30] channel. [00:50:40] Welcome back to Alex Armstrong, tonight. Rob has said on [00:50:44] GBnews.com/yorso, Benjamin needs [00:50:47] telling that those who aren't granted asylum aren't deported, they just [00:50:51] disappear into. economy and Benjamin, lot the time, lot the time [00:50:55] that is the case. my understanding is that you just get a firmly worded letter from the [00:50:59] home office and they say okay, we'll jump a flight, most the time you are not [00:51:03] picked up by home office officials, put into detention and then [00:51:07] forcibly removed from the country. well, the number of people being deported has [00:51:11] risen in the last two years, so clearly more people are having that. well, let's move [00:51:15] on. earl spencer, the brother the late Diana princess of Wales has doubled down on [00:51:19] his shocking claims on the royal family prior to the release of his upcoming... [00:51:22] book, arguably the most eye catching claim is that king charles said [00:51:26] assured we'll forget her soon enough in the days after [00:51:30] princess Diana's death. Speaking to the BBC's Lord Kunsberg, Earl [00:51:33] Spencer stood by all of his claims. Last night, [00:51:37] the express carried claim from an expert that the earl was undoubtedly [00:51:41] working with Harry an allegiance to alliance, I should say, to damage the [00:51:45] king, and just in tomorrow's mail on Sunday, [00:51:49] it's not every day you get gaslet by the king. So how [00:51:53] damaging is this for the palace? I do want to get the [00:51:57] thoughts the panel. Louise, I will start with you. I guess the [00:52:00] first question i've got to ask is do you believe the allegations in this book? [00:52:05] believe that Earl Spencer, as far as far as I'm concerned, Earl Spencer is gentleman [00:52:09] and a man of honor, and he is not lying, he would not lie about [00:52:12] this, he wouldn't lie about his sister, um, I believe that he believes [00:52:16] everything that he wrote down is the absolute truth, and he's a great historian, [00:52:20] I'm looking forward to reading this book, that said, I also believe that the king [00:52:24] is an excellent king, an excellent father, and that [00:52:27] recollections genuinely may vary, uh, for example, [00:52:31] Lord Spencer said he thought it was - not generous the... prince of [00:52:35] Wales, as he would then was, to pluck one rose from Spencer's bouquet and [00:52:39] throw it onto the coffin of his sister. He's obviously a hell of lot of pain [00:52:43] when he's writing this. I saw that as romantic and kind [00:52:46] gesture. The fact is it was very, very febril time. We all [00:52:50] say, all of us say stupid things in the middle of a massive and heated [00:52:54] row. So I'm team King, but I also believe every word [00:52:58] that Lord Spencer says he absolutely wouldn't lie about this. Well, Jamie, [00:53:02] to to Louise's point, recollections may vary in part because... this is what 30 [00:53:06] years ago now, surely that diminishes the credibility of a [00:53:09] book like this for to come out so so long after the [00:53:12] fact, i can't imagine the pain of a [00:53:16] brother losing sister in the circumstances of Diana's death, so [00:53:20] i can imagine that is something that stays with you forever, and it doesn't matter that it's 30 [00:53:24] years on, it must feel like yesterday, the pain and the heartake as anyone that's [00:53:28] loft anyone they love, now that said you're right, it was 30 years [00:53:32] ago, people will say why now, why now? why now when [00:53:36] Charles is king, why now when you've got enough happening with William and Harry, do you know who I [00:53:40] feel sorry for the most in all of this? it's Diana's sons, [00:53:43] that's who I feel for, and and I think actually, so why is he [00:53:47] putting him through it? well, well, this could be complicated by the [00:53:51] reports from the express last night that carried claim from an [00:53:55] expert, and so I think we can take it with a pinch of salt when we just come up with [00:53:59] unnamed experts, but nonetheless, the theory is that the earl was undoubtedly working [00:54:03] with Harry an alliance to... to the king Benjamin? well, I know [00:54:06] that reports have said Prince Harry has distanced himself from the book [00:54:10] and said that he wasn't aware the contents uh through spokes people, [00:54:14] so seems that he denies that, we don't know. [00:54:18] Richard K, who is one the closest people to [00:54:22] the Royal Family, was very close to Princess Diana in the [00:54:24] 1990s, uh, and he writes the Daily Mail, he [00:54:28] said that this fits with what he understood at the [00:54:31] time from what Earl Spencer had said, but he writes the day, email he [00:54:35] serialized this, so [00:54:36] you know, maybe that fits, but on the flip side, [00:54:39] you know, when you ask why now, whether it's true or not, why now, well, he just got [00:54:43] divorced for the third time and it cost millions of pounds, I'm afraid you would [00:54:47] have to be naive to not think that the millions of pounds he'll get for this book [00:54:51] wouldn't come into the decision making, no, he just, let's just get this straight, Lord [00:54:55] Spencer just sold a little parce of land on the very edge of his estate for the [00:54:59] not small sum of 60 million quid, so whatever his motivations [00:55:03] are, money is not that, and why now... he's bottled this up for 30 years and [00:55:07] maybe he feels for his own mental health he has to tell the truth as he sees [00:55:10] it. i don't know what's fact [00:55:12] and i don't know what's fiction, but the one thing i know is the guy's not lying about his own sister, [00:55:15] he's not. none of us know that, none of us know that which is the problem. as i say [00:55:19] Richard K says that he said things like this at the time, but if you watch many interviews [00:55:23] with El Spencer in the months around the death, he didn't say any of [00:55:27] this, he said the opposite, and I'm afraid that he just children were children, [00:55:31] he didn't feel he could do what he was all 12, [00:55:34] the [00:55:34] but time. he's unfortunately, but it will be interesting reading in the mail on Sunday tomorrow. [00:55:38] Next, ladies and gentlemen, I will reveal the true scale the migrant crisis, [00:55:42] which goes way beyond the small boats. This is Alex Armstrong, [00:55:46] tonight with me, Will Kingston, only on the people's channel, GB News, let's get your [00:55:50] weather. [00:55:55] Expect warm spells with the odd rude [00:55:59] interruption. Box Boilers sponsors the weather on [00:56:03] GB News. Hello there, good evening, welcome to your GB [00:56:07] News weather update from the Met Office. Overnight we can still expect a [00:56:10] little bit more rain and also some showers, still fairly windy, but [00:56:14] overall as we head into tomorrow it should be turning much drier. [00:56:18] Now well, we'll see the bulk the rain, we'll still be where this cold front slowly sinks its [00:56:22] way southwards, also fair few showers across parts of Scotland, these [00:56:26] merging into longer spells of rain at times and also turning rather heavy [00:56:30] overnight. Most the rain across the south will eventually clear and [00:56:34] we'll see... of cloud and also some clearer skies, but still going to be [00:56:38] fairly blustery overnight, still certainly across the far north and [00:56:42] northwest, with the added cloud and also the winds, that does mean temperatures won't be [00:56:46] dropping too low, mostly between 9 to 12 degrees celsius, [00:56:49] though across the south it is still going to feel rather warm and [00:56:52] muggy. now across Scotland to start on Sunday, it's still going to be [00:56:56] rather wet and windy, still a few of those heavy showers skirting their way [00:57:00] eastwards, the old shower may also filter in around coasts of northern [00:57:03] Ireland, northwest and England, but elsewhere across England and Wales, it [00:57:07] should be mostly dry start to Sunday, but still fairly warm, still [00:57:11] fairly muggy. Through the course the day, it will start to turn a little bit [00:57:15] fresher, we'll start to see winds lightning off. off and any showers across [00:57:18] Scotland will also eventually ease away, so for most for the second half [00:57:22] the weekend it should be dry, settled and with plenty of sunshine, [00:57:26] and although temperatures are coming down a notch into tomorrow, there'll be lighter [00:57:30] winds, more sunshine, so it'll feel quite pleasant for many areas, temperatures [00:57:34] widely into the mid, high teens if not into the low 20s across the east [00:57:38] and southeast of England. Now Monday, it's going to be turning [00:57:41] warm and muggy again, mostly dry across England and Wales, [00:57:45] but towards Scotland, Northern Ireland, Northwest England quite cloudy here with [00:57:49] spells of rain and drizzle which may turn a little bit heavy over the hills and also starting [00:57:53] to turn quite windy across the northwest once again, lots of dry, settled weather [00:57:57] across much of England and Wales into next week and continuing to feel [00:58:00] warm. expect [00:58:04] warm spells with the odd rude [00:58:07] interruption. box boilers sponsors the weather on [00:58:11] GB [00:58:12] news.

[01:01:23] It's 10 p.m. I'm Will Kingston in for Alex Armstrong. [01:01:26] Tonight. [01:01:36] I'm so these [01:01:37] sick videos. A knife-wielding illegal migrant appears to taunt the [01:01:41] British people on TikTok while breaking into the country. Tonight I will [01:01:45] reveal the true scale the migrant. which goes way [01:01:48] beyond just the small boats, also it'll happen, we [01:01:52] need that for international security, not just security [01:01:55] international. President Trump has announced a historic deal [01:01:59] with Greenland and Denmark, the European leaders clearly [01:02:03] didn't read the art the [01:02:04] deal, [01:02:11] and [01:02:16] yes, been watching the BBC or reading the Guardian, you would have thought all those [01:02:20] illegal migrants and Sutar just went home, well that looked like a [01:02:24] literal war zone, shots are fired in the migrant camps of Sutar, [01:02:28] we'll be covering the latest. 'then he said, [01:02:32] we'll forget her soon enough. after stun [01:02:35] silence, I said, I cannot believe you just said [01:02:39] that. The mail on Sunday leads with, it's [01:02:43] not every day you get gaslet by the king. El [01:02:46] Spencer has reacted to the king's response to his serialized [01:02:50] memoirs. I'll bring you all of Sunday's papers including the Sunday [01:02:54] telegraph that is reporting that the UK is facing a Caribbean [01:02:57] lawsuit over slavery.' operations, I can [01:03:01] tell them where they can stick it later on, joining me tonight, [01:03:05] ladies [01:03:05] and gentlemen, former conservative MP [01:03:07] Louise Mench, journalist and broadcaster Benjamin Butterworth, [01:03:11] and Reform UK counselor Jamie Miver, and I [01:03:15] guess we have to check in with day one the lib dem [01:03:18] conference. We care, we [01:03:22] fight, we care, we fight, [01:03:25] we care, we fight, that's right. [01:03:41] Potentially dangerous, knife-wielding, illegal migrants are [01:03:45] braazenly celebrating on tik tok after breaking into britain [01:03:48] viary. [01:04:00] the man wearing ballaclava and holding what appears to be a small [01:04:04] knife or scalpal made beheading gestures towards the camera: is [01:04:08] this the kind of person you want wondering the streets of your town or city? [01:04:12] well he might be soon as it appears he's at he documented his [01:04:16] entire journey to Britain on social media. he [01:04:20] says he started in [01:04:20] Gabia. [01:04:31] and it seems hidden a semi truck, he finally reached [01:04:35] Britain. [01:04:50] Security sources have previously told GB News of an uptick in the [01:04:54] number [01:04:54] of illegal migrants moving away from small boats and trying to reach the [01:04:58] UK and lorries and other. vehicles: at the peak the crisis back in [01:05:02] 2015, border force detected more than 81,000 [01:05:06] migrants at French ports as they attempted to reach the UK. now it's [01:05:09] only 500 year. while you may ask, well, authorities are [01:05:13] checking fewer lawries than they once did, so the true number of [01:05:17] stoilways is not really known. lorry drivers have also [01:05:20] reported increasing levels of violence and threats from desperate illegal [01:05:24] migrants. [01:05:32] uh security source told you be news, if they're not found in the French [01:05:36] ports or arrival in the UK, the odds are they'll manage to exit the [01:05:40] vehicle at some point and disappear off undetected by [01:05:43] authorities, and we can only know what we know. [01:05:47] if they slip through, we've no idea how many might have managed [01:05:50] that. i think the illegal migrant [01:05:54] crisis is likely far greater in scale than what we realize, [01:05:58] dingies are only part the problem. like the illegals [01:06:01] arriving by small boats, we just do not know who these men [01:06:05] are or what they are capable of, but from this video [01:06:09] alone, there are few things [01:06:10] i think we can infer: it seems this man despises the [01:06:14] country [01:06:14] he is breaking into, and from his gestures he looks intent [01:06:18] on harming it, and like so many illegal migrants, he believes [01:06:22] he will get away with breaking into Britain so confident that he mocks [01:06:26] us on camera, he wouldn't be an... ladies [01:06:30] and gentlemen, i think he is picture the traits that make so many [01:06:34] illegal migrants are danger to the men, women and children [01:06:38] of this country. let's get the thoughts of my panel. [01:06:42] louise, i'll start with you first, what do you feel when [01:06:46] you see those types of tik tok videos, it's almost become a genre now, that one's [01:06:49] particularly bracing because the knife or the scalple in the man's mouth [01:06:53] and the throat slitding gesture, but again these are all too common, how do you [01:06:57] feel when you see them? enraged and? think that's the point the video, it [01:07:01] is literally designed to be rage bait, but I don't care [01:07:05] why that video was produced, I care about the fact the matter, [01:07:08] and one great way not to find illegal migrants is not to look for them, [01:07:12] which is what labor is doing, and that's why the numbers of 5,00, we're literally [01:07:16] not checking these lorries. I will also say, sorry, Jamie, but this is [01:07:20] why Reforms plan for migrants will not work. Nigel Farage is [01:07:24] plan is to row them all back to the French beaches with the Royal Navy, [01:07:27] that's terrific, but as we've just seen what... does [01:07:30] it mean they're going to come straight back over on the next lorry? we don't want to deport these [01:07:34] people to our next door neighbors so they can just get back on another lorry and come back again, [01:07:38] that's migrant ping-pong. what we want to do is to deport them to a third country, in [01:07:42] this case. Rwanda, it worked brilliantly for Donald Trump, I think [01:07:45] everybody acknowledges that, taking them to El Salvador, and that's what Keny [01:07:49] Bay not is going to do, why didn't it work before because of judges and she's taking them out the [01:07:53] equation, but furrying them back to France is a sure way to get lovely [01:07:57] chaps like that guy straight back in Britain on the next drug, well it certainly [01:08:00] worked with Naru, the Naru solution for Australia uh, your [01:08:04] response to Louise's comments on the reform, first of all I think it [01:08:08] just goes to show that the boats are a great visual the invasion to our country with [01:08:12] this. is happening in all different ways and the lorries have been a known problem for [01:08:15] years and years and years and we've taken we've taken our eyes off the ball there which is very frustrating, but on [01:08:19] Louise's comments, I'm going to have to disagree uh, our policy is in [01:08:23] two [01:08:24] part fold, firstly we are deporting people back to the countries that they come from, we made [01:08:28] it very clear, we've been calling to leave the ECHR long before the tories did, and [01:08:32] I'm afraid no one will take the conservative party seriously on this topic, because they had [01:08:35] Rwanda, it was over and ready to go, Richy decides to call early general election [01:08:39] because deep down they know it wasn't work because "you can't do it unless you [01:08:43] leave the ECHR, but our other policy, which no one [01:08:47] believes for a minute that the tories will do that in gover they do, [01:08:49] it's a new management under you think that she is the same as [01:08:53] rishike, you haven't been paying attention, it might be undernew management, but it is [01:08:57] full of lib dems and the parliamentary party will never agree to it, but [01:09:01] more to the point, and this is important, we have just done a deal with what who we [01:09:04] believe is going to be the next government of France where we will take them back to france [01:09:08] too, and why is that important? it's the deterrance, France don't want them going to France ever." [01:09:12] under under Lepen's government, so it's very clear that we have a plan [01:09:16] for this to get rid the people that are here already that shouldn't be and to stop new arrivals, it's [01:09:20] all about deterrant and taking away the ball factor too, I'll p, I'll pause the right-wing [01:09:24] in fighting and something's going to need to be done on this more broadly, ladies and gentlemen, [01:09:28] I i'm i'm getting increasingly scared that some sort of Frankenstein [01:09:31] coalition the lib dems and labour and the greens could take [01:09:35] advantage of this infighting on the right with devastating consequences for the country, but [01:09:39] that's to by the by uh Benjamin, what I think? this does [01:09:43] demonstrate is that this is ultimately a demand problem, you've got [01:09:46] to stop people from wanting to come to this country, or else they just find new [01:09:50] and novel ways to get in, and it doesn't matter how many deals you do with France or how [01:09:54] many times that you come up with you know addressing so-called you know supply chain [01:09:58] issues for illegal boats, for for small boats, this ultimately [01:10:02] comes back to stopping people from wanting to come in the first place. well, I think that's true, because one the [01:10:06] reasons why Lorry's is now getting more focus is because it has been made [01:10:10] harder to get across a small boat, [01:10:12] and so... they're looking for other means, I mean, I think it was under the a previous [01:10:16] labor government in the mid-90s when they managed to slash the number of people coming [01:10:20] over at legally in trucks, but clearly the problem has returned, you think with [01:10:23] x-ray technology that could be rolled out far more, maybe that's something to [01:10:27] invest in, because that you would think with you know thermal technology for example would make it far [01:10:31] easier to spot. can I add to that, because Patrick [01:10:35] Chris did some wonderful work on this earlier in the week and he was looking at the [01:10:39] Lorries specifically, and one the ways that they try and... [01:10:42] demonstrate that there aren't illegal migrants a lorry is not to your point some [01:10:46] form of advanced technology, which I would have thought we would have in 2026, they put [01:10:50] a plastic zip tie around the door the lorry, and then [01:10:54] they assume if the zip tie hasn't been broken, well then that means that no one [01:10:58] has or nothing has got out the lorry, literally the safety of this country [01:11:02] is being determined by whether or not a plastic zip tie can be opened up and [01:11:06] then closed on the back of a lorry, it's unbelievable, I [01:11:09] mean one the realities is that there are mas finds if [01:11:13] illegal migrants are found a truck, but a consequence of that is that you get [01:11:17] a situation where lorry drivers, whistleblowers have said they are encouraged to [01:11:21] open the doors when they get across and you know stay in their cabin not [01:11:25] look, because they don't want [01:11:26] to get the enormous fine for someone sneaking in which they didn't know about. now as [01:11:30] an individual you can see the rational, why do they want their life ruined, their career ruined for [01:11:34] somebody got in without them knowing, but on the flip side that causes the problem you talk [01:11:38] about, which is that then we have no trace and no numbers for the number of people that [01:11:42] have... [01:11:42] it in, why is it impossible for us to deploy a regiment the British [01:11:46] army to go in and check every lorry? i understand we don't [01:11:50] have enough broader personnel, but why is it impossible for [01:11:53] our well-trained armed forces not to just quickly check every [01:11:57] vehicle as it comes through? that seems like it shouldn't be impossible a crisis situation. [01:12:01] well that's an interesting way of phrasing a quite crisis situation. the argument would [01:12:05] be with something like 4,500 lorries going across every single [01:12:08] day it wouldn't be feasible in from a from a from logistic. [01:12:12] standpoint, [01:12:13] I don't see why not, just put more manpower on it, it's really a question of will, [01:12:17] it's a question of will, I agree with you, it's a question of will, so why did the previous tory government not even do [01:12:21] anything like that? this is the th, this is this is where this is where we find ourselves [01:12:25] that we have just had successive governments that just haven't had that [01:12:28] determination to solve this problem [01:12:31] and that's why the british people have had enough and i agree with you a question, i'm not interested in really to getting the [01:12:34] failures the tories, everyone who watches this channel [01:12:37] is well aware, but everyone [01:12:39] is well aware of it right and you will make your own judgments as to whether or not they can now be [01:12:43] trusted under new management or not, people have to make their own decisions there, what [01:12:46] i more interested in and it's a very morbid fascination is [01:12:50] looking at these videos and looking at the attitude these young men and [01:12:54] it is this nonsilence that they have, jamie, [01:12:57] it is this the cavalier attitude that says a, i'm not going to get [01:13:01] caught for this, but b, it's very obvious that this man [01:13:05] there is something there which he is is is trying to fight [01:13:08] against, is like it's almost like he's on some sort of mission, yeah [01:13:12] um, i'll repeat the question asked to louise, how does that make [01:13:16] you feel? well, first of all, the leader of my party [01:13:19] was, there's a man in prison at the moment who came to this country [01:13:23] threatening to kill him, yeah, this is a... very serious security [01:13:26] issue, these people hate Britain, they hate our way of [01:13:30] life, they hate the Christian faith, they don't like women, these are [01:13:34] not good people, and and again we say, they're not all them, I'm afraid, [01:13:38] unless you know they're not, I will assume they all areas, Benjamin, this is a really [01:13:42] important question, do you think that someone like that who's [01:13:46] come from a culture which is most likely going to be alien to the [01:13:49] United Kingdom, and do you think you know certain number of [01:13:53] pamplets and civic training? [01:14:25] people say if you need to give out that pample, that in in itself is [01:14:28] demonstration that the people coming are risk that we should not be taking, it's no different [01:14:32] to, i don't - you've ever flown to singapore, but when you land in Singapore they give you [01:14:36] information saying that chewing gum is illegal, that you get the death sentence [01:14:40] if you have vape, right? it's about setting out the laws the land and that's better to [01:14:44] do it than to not do it, but should a person that demonstrates in the way he does [01:14:48] that video be here, well clearly not, no, because he's not, he's not illustrating that he wants [01:14:52] to integrate, in the earlier segment I said these people are the... the earth and you said previously that [01:14:56] would be considered to be a little bit spicy, but these are people that we have to give them leaflets that [01:15:00] literally say don't rape children, yeah, don't rape women, don't sexually [01:15:04] assault children, the fact is they are all men who have [01:15:08] left their women folk, left their children behind, left the old [01:15:11] people behind, these are young men, they are not good people and they [01:15:15] should be detained when they're caught, not processed into camps, [01:15:19] benjamin, do do Canadians get given those brochures when they land at [01:15:22] Hebro, do Italians get given them when they go... stance did it is a [01:15:26] specific problem for a specific group of people, a group of [01:15:30] young fighting age men that see the women as some sort [01:15:34] of asset any age that they can dispose and do whatever they want [01:15:38] with, and the fact [01:15:39] that family of Canadian migrants, so I don't, I'll [01:15:41] have to go back and Jamie's point here is fair one and I think it's fair because you it's [01:15:45] not even moral judgment as such, it's just recognition the obvious, which is if [01:15:49] you come from a culture which doesn't treat women in the same way, [01:15:53] if you've had - lack of education and lot of sub-saharan [01:15:57] african countries you will have had no formal education or very rudimentary [01:16:00] education, you're more likely to hold what would be views which [01:16:04] would be considered primitive by the standards of a western liberal [01:16:07] democracy. um, this isn't a conspiracy theory, if you've [01:16:11] come from a culture which treats women a particular way, you are more likely to hold those [01:16:15] views yourself. well, absolutely, um, and that's why [01:16:19] even the home office under labor agrees, that's why they produce the [01:16:22] leaflet, and the fact is people aren't coming to... with the scale of this crisis, [01:16:26] 81,000 and now we can't see any them, what are we [01:16:30] doing to our country? this is invasion, but it's completely unreasonable to say [01:16:34] that everybody who comes from those countries will act maliciously and have those [01:16:38] culturals, how do you? i've been, i've spent time in many these countries you're [01:16:41] referring to, and i have met brilliantly intelligent people that would easily fit [01:16:45] in in British culture with their values, so the idea that everybody from [01:16:49] there is a threat is completely, no one is saying that, we're saying the [01:16:53] threat is disproportionate and that... threat is not worth the [01:16:56] risk, yeah, that's why you vet them, and that's why you provide the clear [01:16:59] advice of how [01:17:00] we behave, I'm afraid you're wrong, buse firstly, how do [01:17:03] you know? secondly, some the people you've described wouldn't come here a [01:17:06] boat, that's the difference, these people are breaking the law [01:17:09] immediately, they are law breakers, they are illegal migrants, no legal [01:17:13] way to come from, for example, how many brain surgeons have come from Afghanistan [01:17:17] a boat, and also they're not, they're not coming from, we know that [01:17:20] there was a doctor that came from Afghanistan that took his own life while he was waiting to get a [01:17:23] right to stay in the UK. so there are those among them, I'm not suggesting it's going to be [01:17:27] most, but there also isn't a legal route, for example someone from Sudan, [01:17:31] which really is at war, there is no legal way for them to come and claim [01:17:34] as they are not, they are not coming from Afghanistan, they're not [01:17:38] coming from Sudan, they're coming from France, which is [01:17:41] totally safe G7 nation, not a single [01:17:45] one of those is legitimate asylum seeker because they are coming from safe european [01:17:49] country, and and again it was a really good piece of [01:17:53] reporting if you want to go back on youtube. Ladies and gentlemen, I suggest you find it, I think it [01:17:57] was his his episodes on Monday and Tuesday this week, he asked that question of an illegal [01:18:00] migrant where he said, you've come from France, this is safe, why, why do you then [01:18:04] have to go further on, and he didn't get a compelling answer. but the bottom [01:18:08] line which we all know is because a, the benefits are better in the United [01:18:11] Kingdom, and b, there's less likely, it is less likely you're going to be [01:18:15] deported. this all comes back to incentives, it is that you know, this [01:18:19] is a complicated issue in some respects, but in the most basic way it's very simple and it all comes back [01:18:23] to incentent, well [01:18:24] Zea Yusuf did get answer from one when he visited his suita and uh they [01:18:27] said money, they are in their minds coming for one thing [01:18:31] bause there economic migrants, they want the money, they want the benefits, we are soft touch, we give [01:18:35] it all to them, yeah, i completely agree with that. the other thing which I think was really interesting when you [01:18:39] look at someone like this in this clip uh and also again the people that Patrick [01:18:43] spoke to uh is I think we have now [01:18:47] because the weak actions of this government and the previous government I would argue [01:18:51] normalised this for many young men in places like Afghanistan or [01:18:55] Eritrea or Sudan. I think a lot them now would have had brothers who have [01:18:58] made this crossing. I think a lot them would have had family members and when they were asked some [01:19:02] them just said oh I don't know really why I'm doing this like literally said oh I [01:19:06] don't know. and I think it's because it's just normalized for them, it's just an expectation now what many [01:19:10] these people don't will do, you know go [01:19:12] you a gap here if you go to Eritrea, you go to you know you [01:19:16] do you illegal migrant crossing across the channel to to England, that is the problem [01:19:20] these policies is normalized this behavior, people are incredibly desperate, I was in [01:19:24] Jibuiti, the country below Eritrea uh earlier this year, [01:19:28] it's the hottest place on Earth, the Danakill desert, and there are people, I [01:19:31] mean it's unbearable, I couldn't bear more than five minutes outside, there are people that walk [01:19:35] across dji in order to get stretch across to Saudi Arabia a [01:19:39] desperate ple to make route into the UK. Some these people go [01:19:43] through absolute hell and to compare that to some kind of gapier opportunity [01:19:47] is not reasonable. Why should they come to the UK? Why should they come to the [01:19:51] UK if they if they successfully and safely get to let's say Italy [01:19:55] as the the southern most country or Greece? Why don't they make asylum [01:19:58] asylum application there? They then transfer themselves entirely through [01:20:02] the entirely safe continent of Europe in order to come here and will [01:20:06] is 100. percent right, they wouldn't choose Britain over [01:20:10] France, over Germany, over Italy, over Spain if we didn't give them more [01:20:14] than every other country on God's green earth, and that's what's bringing them here.

[01:25:59] Local residents fighting plans for camp to house illegal [01:26:03] migrants have reported home office contractors to the police [01:26:07] for allegedly disturbing rare protected species of [01:26:10] bats on sight. The now famous residents the village of [01:26:14] Pittington in Oxfordshire who voted a referendum last week [01:26:18] to quit the UK and test at the government's asylum [01:26:21] plans have claimed that the home office may have committed a [01:26:25] wildlife crime by turning a powerful floodlight at the [01:26:29] site. they say the home office would require a license from natural [01:26:33] England in order to do so and in order to do so and any work [01:26:37] at the site that may disturb the bats, which include one the rarest [01:26:40] mammals in the UK means that the license would be necessary. [01:26:44] without it, the home office could potentially breach the [01:26:47] 2007 habitat conservation. which [01:26:50] legislated to make [01:26:52] it a crime to intentionally [01:26:54] or recklessly disturb a bat joining me to discuss this is [01:26:58] possibly the best guest title of [01:27:02] anyone i've ever read on resident and [01:27:05] batman michael nixon michael great [01:27:08] to to have you on the show [01:27:11] this is a tragic situation that the residents [01:27:14] of smile when i read this [01:27:18] story because throwing the insane regulations that have [01:27:22] built up in this country over decades now back in the face the government and [01:27:26] using it against them, how did this uh concept or this this strategy I should say come [01:27:30] about? well the uh the [01:27:34] strategy really came about from the government's own application, [01:27:37] so in the uh planning application the government did [01:27:41] a preliminary ecological appraisal and during [01:27:45] that process uh they did a tabletop [01:27:49] exercise. of uh species that would be present [01:27:53] and they used the wrong data set, they use Buckingham [01:27:56] Sher and Milton Keane's data for an Oxfordshire [01:28:00] village uh, and if they use the right data set, they [01:28:04] would have realized that there's rare and protected species on [01:28:07] site, so that was their first mistake, we picked up on [01:28:11] that during our review the application, so we went [01:28:15] out and did our own bat survey and [01:28:18] uh so we took a a local ornythologist [01:28:21] and ecologist who lives in the [01:28:25] village and we did that surveys over three nights [01:28:28] and what we discovered was seven species. [01:28:32] of bats on and around the site, including as you [01:28:36] say, the rare and endangered on the red [01:28:39] list uh barbestel and it's described [01:28:43] as one the rarest mammals in the [01:28:45] UK um so it's really [01:28:49] important that that bat isn't disturbed [01:28:52] and putting bright lights and activity on [01:28:56] the site is probably in breach of [01:29:00] numerous environmental regulation. and as you said earlier, [01:29:03] Alex, they need a license from Natural England to be able to [01:29:07] operate uh in and around the bats, and [01:29:11] we don't believe they [01:29:13] have that, and I'm reminded of several major infrastructure projects in the [01:29:16] past which have been either scotched or delayed precisely [01:29:20] for types of regulatory breaches like this [01:29:23] one, do you hold out any hope that there may be similar [01:29:27] er delay or hopefully er prevention of [01:29:31] this asyl? camp as result of this? [01:29:35] well, absolutely. um, as part of this, we've also launched [01:29:39] a pre-action protocol, legal letter to the [01:29:43] government uh stating that we think the their [01:29:46] a assessment is flawed because the data that they've used is [01:29:50] incorrect, um, and because of that, we've [01:29:54] asked them to pause the whole [01:29:57] process, while that application [01:30:01] go through, "and we also feel [01:30:04] that they should be conducting a full [01:30:07] survey of the bats and the ecology [01:30:11] on site and to do that they need to do it during the bat [01:30:14] active season which is may through to [01:30:18] september so they're going to [01:30:20] need to conduct surveys over the next six [01:30:24] months before they can actually establish [01:30:28] baseline and move forward well michael both for [01:30:32] the..." but probably more importantly for the residents of Pittington, I very much hope that [01:30:36] you are successful, good on you for novel approach to stopping what is just [01:30:39] unimable uh imposition on the lives of of this [01:30:43] town uh, good luck with it, this is this is crazy crazy [01:30:47] application, it's flawed in so many ways, this is [01:30:50] just one the major flaws that in the whole application, [01:30:54] yeah it sounds like it, Michael, thanks for your time, let's go to the [01:30:58] panel, Jamie, I've had a mental block, who was the American? [01:31:03] who the government eventually got on tax fraud [01:31:06] charges there is a bit of getting on [01:31:10] tax fraud in this but look if it can somehow scotch [01:31:14] again [01:31:14] this this proposal from the government brilliant well first of all i [01:31:18] just i just love this because this is [01:31:22] um the blob getting taste their own medicine i absolutely love it [01:31:26] i've sat a planning committe as a counselor for seven years and i've watched a [01:31:30] blob have a go people just wanting to have a extension on their house that they've spent their [01:31:34] entire life paying for and they retire and get a bit of money and they want [01:31:37] to put an extension on and it's two centimeters overall there's [01:31:40] a rare nute in the pond next door and i just love that the people are pissing [01:31:43] to and who are a place demographically that you know lends [01:31:47] itself to people that maybe we'll take different uh view of how to [01:31:51] campaign on this one and what they are doing is they're giving the blob a run for their [01:31:55] money they're making people that are meant to be uh intelligent look very stupid and [01:31:59] above all what i love is they are so resolute they're not making this [01:32:02] political, they are just getting on with doing the right thing because they [01:32:06] recognize that what is coming down the line for this community is [01:32:09] horrific and this is happening as I mentioned earlier all over the [01:32:13] country this is happening and people are waking up but I just love it [01:32:16] and and you what I really hope they're successful and everyone should maybe go and [01:32:20] buy some bats. Louis, this is the thing right, I think this probably [01:32:24] speaks to the desperation that these residents are feeling right now. [01:32:28] Yeah, look, I'm not going to be a massive hypocrite, as far as I'm concerned, bats of... [01:32:32] rats, I don't give a monkeys, what happens to them? I'm going to be completely [01:32:36] honest with you, and I'm with Jamie. Ordinarily I would be saying, [01:32:40] why the hell are we putting the needs of stupid animals above the needs of stupid people? [01:32:44] I honestly don't care if this back goes extinct or not, but there used to be an old [01:32:48] in comedy called passport to plimlico and now we've got passport to pittington because [01:32:51] they are trying to get out of it any which way they can, and I absolutely [01:32:55] agree with Jamie, I applaud them using whatever tactic they can [01:32:59] to put a stop to this. If it's bats, fantastic. 'the most batty idea about [01:33:03] this is putting a migrant camp in Pittington in the first place, yeah, and Benjamin, [01:33:07] look, I, I, I can't recall specific instances, but there have been several stories [01:33:11] in the recent past of major infrastructure projects which have been [01:33:14] delayed or even scotched as result of, to Jamie's [01:33:18] point, some rare nute or you know, some insect that may [01:33:22] potentially be interfered with in some way, I've got a feeling though that maybe they [01:33:26] will be less uh, less uh caring about the bat [01:33:30] population in pittington, well there's the 100 million pound'. [01:33:45] or wish of the people, as as a millennial at the wrong end the housing [01:33:48] ladder, I really have no sympathy for the bats or the nuts or or any other rare [01:33:52] species, uh, rid [01:33:53] you know, I don't wish to get them for the sake of it, but honestly building houses and [01:33:57] resolving problems that the country has is just far more important. [01:34:00] again, this this is story, you know, for the avoidance of doubt ladies and gentlemen, this [01:34:04] isn't really about buts, this is about a far greater problem, and that is [01:34:08] 1,250 military age, third world [01:34:12] migrants coming to a small village of 300. 350 people and [01:34:16] fundamentally changing the social fabric of that village and putting women and children [01:34:20] at increased risk. Interestingly, what Michael said was that [01:34:24] this proposal to put this this migrant camp here [01:34:28] is just like incredibly flawed administratively like it goes to show [01:34:32] that even though the government I think is ethically absolutely [01:34:36] acting obherently in this situation they can't even do it an [01:34:39] administratively capable way they can't they this government can't deliver bad [01:34:43] policy properly. 'that's the that's that's just sums probably [01:34:47] labor up from day one, but i think it's possibly they're only saving grace actually, [01:34:51] maybe, maybe, but what i think is is very telling whether it was Eping, whether it's [01:34:55] Weaversfield, is there seems to be lack of understanding the [01:34:59] scale, now if there was a hundred men there, it would still be outrageous, [01:35:02] but I think there would be half the people in Pittington would be as irate as they [01:35:06] feel about the fact that they are going to have literally more [01:35:10] people in that camp, more fighting age young males than almost if [01:35:14] you doub'. the village, it is just extraordinary, and [01:35:17] what i also think the government don't understand is if they went about [01:35:21] this slightly different and perhaps communities got a brand new sports center [01:35:25] at the end of it, guys put up with this for just for year, it'l only be for year, then [01:35:29] maybe you might be able to buy your way into this, but the government have zero [01:35:32] strategy, i would never buy into it, most british people wouldn't, but there are some [01:35:36] left-wing places, you look at places like brighton and other places, they might [01:35:40] just get away with it, but they have no clue always the alternative approach from the [01:35:44] government basically been to say, well look, everyone needs to do their bit, as [01:35:48] if this is some great national undertaking, how have you thought about the way the government [01:35:52] has framed it in those terms? no, the doing our bit means voting against this [01:35:56] bloody government that gives billion pounds of our tax money to France [01:36:00] to do as we saw on Patrick's reports, absolutely [01:36:03] nothing, and then spending more of our taxpayer money uh [01:36:06] dwarfing the little village of Piddington with ridiculous migrants of [01:36:10] whom 99.99% are young males, of course it's [01:36:14] a... stupid idea, this isn't the war and it's not your country [01:36:18] needs you, your country needs you to get up and object to [01:36:22] this and say, no more, no more, we want them out, we don't want them parked [01:36:26] in our villages, we want them gone, well I'm uh, I'm heading for lunch in in [01:36:29] Oxfordshire tomorrow, so I'll be sure to check out the back population [01:36:33] and uh and get some onsight reporting, a home office [01:36:37] spokesman said preliminary ecological surveys have identified no [01:36:41] recorded protected species present on the side and to licensed his own required if [01:36:45] officially identified uh, if it has been officially [01:36:49] identified and concluded that the use the site is unlikely to have a significant [01:36:52] impact on the environment. on the side of pittington they added the concerns of [01:36:56] communities are central to our immigration reforms, which is why that we are working [01:37:00] with local authorities and others to fairly disperse asylum seekers across [01:37:04] basic accommodation, including ex-military sites. [01:37:08] right? next, all your front pages including some huge stories, including [01:37:12] royal bombshill and a lawsuit against...

I'm Stephen Dixon and [01:41:02] thanks for joining us on GB News, Britain's news [01:41:05] channel. [01:41:14] Welcome back to Alex Armstrong, tonight with me, Will Kingston, only on the people's [01:41:18] channel, JB news. It's time to bring you the tomorrow's front pages and [01:41:22] they're starting to come through. The mail on Sunday is leading with, [01:41:25] it's not every day you get. gaslet by the king, that's the new [01:41:29] revelations coming out of Earl Spencer's book and you're going to see them tomorrow [01:41:33] morning, Sunday times, hypocrite Spencer is pedling [01:41:37] Diana's privacy, says king's allies, so slightly [01:41:41] different take on that story there, the Sunday telegraph and we're going to start here [01:41:44] a moment, the PM fiddles as Putin threatens to [01:41:48] burn Europe, let's get this over to my of [01:41:52] my panel on that story uh, and this is a comment [01:41:56] louise from your leader. [01:41:57] who has criticized the PM for failing to fund armed [01:42:01] forces properly in the face of increasing Russian [01:42:04] aggression. I was only listening to a podcast a couple of days ago where the [01:42:08] first sealord said that the Russians pose the greatest threat to [01:42:12] this country and that threat is increasing. On Patrick Shawn Tuesday night [01:42:16] we reported on how the Russians are using radicalized youths in [01:42:20] Britain to try and progress their evil agenda. This [01:42:24] threat is very, very real. I think Kemy Badnock is right in point. it [01:42:27] out, and yet you still have a prime minister who is saying words to the effect, [01:42:31] well, national security is important, but it can't come at the expense of social [01:42:35] security. yeah, well, I think he thought that that was very clever little soundbite [01:42:39] there, but actually I would say to him, there is no social [01:42:42] security without national security, none [01:42:45] whatsoever, defending the realm is the first duty of any [01:42:49] government, and labor are failing terribly at it, which John [01:42:53] Healey, now the chancellor, admitted when he resigned as defense secretary, so [01:42:57] now... up to him to put our money where his mouth was, and I [01:43:01] don't think any of us think he's going to do that. The reason by [01:43:03] the way that you got those comments from the first sealord rather than any [01:43:07] the other chiefs the defense staff, was that the real major threat from [01:43:11] Russia right now is to come in and cut the underseas [01:43:15] cables that deliver our internet? I mean those of your viewers who seen the American [01:43:19] show zero day when there was a massive cyber attack, the bank shut down, [01:43:22] there's no point of of payment things, you can't buy groceries, you can't get your money out the [01:43:26] bank, your bank account. goes to zero, that is a live possibility [01:43:30] if you look at what Russian submarines are doing, and yet Andy Burnham thinks [01:43:34] it's more important to spend money giving benefits to migrants [01:43:38] and allowing anybody with ADHD to sign off as soon as they [01:43:42] turn 18. Yeah, Benjamin, er, badnock went to say [01:43:46] that on the subject of that messaging that she would not cut welfare spending to [01:43:49] fund defense, she said this was heard loud and clear in Moscow as well [01:43:53] as Manchester, do you think that sort of commentary from the prime minister has [01:43:57] anti-deterrent effect on our enemies, well what he was saying, and I [01:44:01] think it was intentional comment, I don't think it was [01:44:04] a misspeak, [01:44:05] is that he will protect the safety net for Britains when they fall on hard [01:44:09] times. 'and he will protect Britain from hard times, he didn't [01:44:12] say that we weren't going to fund defense, and if you look at all the [01:44:16] evidence, [01:44:17] you know, the very man who quit his role as defense secretary in order to get [01:44:20] 3%, has been put in charge the books, you streeting, who is [01:44:24] the new defense secretary, one the first things he said is that he won't remain in the job [01:44:28] if we don't get to that funding, and so all the indicators are that they're taking it [01:44:32] extremely seriously, we'll have to wait a couple of weeks for the budget, this is my question, there [01:44:36] is still no clear pathway to how do they get to that 3% of spending'. [01:44:40] defense as a percentage, well I have a good pathway, I would stop giving the triple lock to [01:44:44] pensioners, which gives tens of billions extra in recent years when [01:44:47] we need that money to defend the country. Oh, you'll be popular with GB news viewers and [01:44:51] listeners, but I'm going to ask you, Jamie, should we scrap the triple lock as a way of getting [01:44:55] defense spending up? No, no, I don't believe in that, and the reason I don't believe in that is [01:44:59] because many of those pensioners that are in receipt of that, many them have [01:45:03] served this country in defense the nation, plus many [01:45:07] their parents die [01:45:09] to defending this nation. we need to do is have serious look at welfare, but [01:45:12] also at government spending generally. I do genuinely believe [01:45:16] we waste so much money that we don't need to, and it's across [01:45:20] all departments, but I think the clear thing here [01:45:23] is it's there are too many people now saying [01:45:27] Britain's defense is not adequate, whether that's former military personnel, [01:45:31] that's people in the defense right now, there is too much [01:45:34] whistleblowing, and the reality is we have seen it [01:45:38] happen, [01:45:38] our own sovereign territory was a... act in Cyprus and we couldn't [01:45:42] defend it, the reality is we owe it to [01:45:45] those that put on uniform and prepared to die for this country, we owe it to [01:45:49] them to make sure [01:45:50] that they are funded properly. yeah, i wasn't aware actually that admiral lord west, the [01:45:54] former first sealord actually was quoted in this article uh, and he has come out and [01:45:58] said our military has been underfunded for many years and is in quite a power [01:46:01] state. in many ways one could argue we are already at war, we're certainly [01:46:05] in the gray zone whether it's cyber attacks, drones, well drones getting near the edge [01:46:09] of... somewhere or threats to underwater cables, and this goes to the point that you mentioned, and I [01:46:13] think this is something which is really terrifying, is that warfare has changed from the days [01:46:17] of a massing a large land army or naval fleet and then [01:46:20] invading foreign territory which requires huge amount of people, [01:46:24] huge amount of loss of life, huge amount of resources, now you can do [01:46:28] extraordinary damage by cutting underwater cables or by dropping few drones [01:46:32] into a particular area, but this is a far more dangerous world than what it [01:46:35] once was and yet it doesn't feel like that danger is felt enough [01:46:39] in... Absolutely not, and I'm afraid that we're going to repeat history, [01:46:43] will, as we did when Churchill was desperately saying, let's rearm, [01:46:47] let's rearm before World War II and everybody called him a warmonger. [01:46:51] The fact is, asked the boys on the frontline in Ukraine, it is a drone war [01:46:55] right now, it is a technological war, and we are not doing enough, we [01:46:58] are not doing enough to protect our homeland in the way that President Trump protects his [01:47:02] homeland, we're literally not doing enough, and we've got to find [01:47:06] savings in order to fund defense, what we can't do is... labor seems to [01:47:10] want to do, which is ignore finding savings, ignore cutting the world, but [01:47:14] just jack up taxes. if anybody's seen bond prices lately, [01:47:18] that's economic warfer against us as well. yeah, well doesn't a side, rewatched [01:47:22] the darkest hour last night, what cracking film that is, strongly recommend [01:47:26] ladies and gentlemen. er, that's all we have for on this, but i'm sure we will cover those [01:47:30] bracing comments from kemmy back in the papers [01:47:33] review in the next hour. coming up though, the independent is leading [01:47:37] with voters across Britain. rejoining the [01:47:41] rejoining the EU, it's the debate that won't go away, we'll cover that on Alex [01:47:45] Armstrong, tonight, only with me, [01:47:46] Wilkingston.

[01:50:22] not to be anywhere else on Saturday night, this is the [01:50:26] Saturday 5, you [01:50:27] got i mean, you got me good there, Britton's biggest Saturday Night [01:50:31] TV show, it's not a bad brand, uncensored, very, very [01:50:34] racist tonight on the unpredictable, what she say, can you [01:50:38] translate it for us and always entertaining, how can a country go from [01:50:42] being led by William Wallace, Saturday nights [01:50:46] from 6 p.m. only on GB News, the people's channel, [01:50:50] Britain's news channel, you're going to want to stay... trust [01:50:52] me, [01:50:58] welcome back to Alex Armstrong tonight with me, Will Kingston, more front [01:51:02] pages have come in, the independent is leading [01:51:06] with voters across Britain, back rejoining the EU, this [01:51:10] is after a survey, they put out 12,000 people, so not [01:51:13] insubstantial, Sunday mirror, fury at Mady [01:51:16] Suspects Book plot, Newman heartach, the [01:51:20] observer leading with careless. uh the state stopped the [01:51:24] learning of something or another which I'm sure we may or may not get to the sun [01:51:28] on Sunday kangaroo wains off to jungle in I'm a [01:51:32] seleb must watch viewing no doubt the Sunday Express lives at risk as [01:51:36] illegal knives flood into the UK let's go to the panel and let's go [01:51:40] to the independent I know sometimes people just don't want to talk about Brexit [01:51:43] anymore but I think this is worth mentioning because it is a substantial [01:51:47] survey uh 12,000 people and it says that reversing [01:51:51] Brexit is the most popular option in 646 the [01:51:54] 650 UK constituencies, my theory on this is now [01:51:58] Brexit has just become almost a byproduct for [01:52:02] decline, whether or not it has anything to do with that decline or not, people look at [01:52:06] the problems the country are facing and they go oh well [01:52:09] you know what, [01:52:10] you know Brexit hasn't worked and so therefore that's the problem, I don't necessarily think it's [01:52:14] reflection of Brexit as a concept or as a [01:52:17] principle, look um the political parties have got their own [01:52:21] internal pulls that are very... uh much better than public polls, yes this is [01:52:25] a substantial number, but there's going to be a bit of tory reform [01:52:28] alliance here, because if you take the support across the country for the touris for [01:52:32] reform and for restore and you add it together, that's a large plurality the [01:52:36] country, if those buffins that work for these political parties were seeing that [01:52:40] almost this service says nearly every constituency in the country is [01:52:43] suddenly turned into remain, if that was true both Nigel Farage and Kemy [01:52:47] B and Rupert Low, we would all they would all know about it and they would all have changed [01:52:51] their policy. It's a good that's a good point actually when you look at it that way [01:52:55] it doesn't really pass the sniff test no I agree well speaking with some [01:52:59] authorities essix boy I can tell you there are 18 parliamentary seats in S6 that would tell [01:53:03] this survey to do one there is no way there is no way that [01:53:07] 646 of 650 constituencies back this idea in [01:53:11] fact I don't even think every single um Libdem [01:53:14] voter would see this is sensible thing to do simply because it would be [01:53:17] disaster for the country just for the division all the crap that would come with it [01:53:21] the reality. is that we left the European Union, but what has failed in my [01:53:25] opinion, is to obtain all of those great benefits that could be [01:53:29] obtained, and it will take a government that believes in Brexit to actually [01:53:33] deliver that, this one doesn't. Who knows what goes through the minds of Lib Dem voters, that clip [01:53:37] that we've been showing you of Ed Davy this evening, Christopher Snowden who I interviewed [01:53:41] on my fire at Whill podcast for GB News only this week, has described it as the deputy [01:53:45] head of Geography department after three pints of landlord, I think that's [01:53:49] probably the best way to describe and ed Davy Fireop speech. [01:53:52] Benjamin: uh, look, whilst again, you can quible with potentially [01:53:56] how emphatic the survey is, there is no doubt potentially [01:53:59] sentiment that amongst some people, brexit was the wrong decision, [01:54:03] do you think there is any chance that labor cracks class in case of emergency and [01:54:06] suggests some form of uh of new vote on rejoining? uh, I don't think there'll [01:54:10] be referendum on rejoining the EU and I wouldn't support it either, [01:54:14] because we lost so many years to that discussion rather than actually implementing [01:54:18] anything that would improve the country on either side, but [01:54:22] evident for a long time that most British people think Brexit was a [01:54:26] failure, which is probably where this is nearer to the truth, and [01:54:30] also if you add up labor, libdem, green, SNP, and reasonable chunk [01:54:34] of conservative. voters, I suspect many them do not think that Brexit [01:54:37] worked, and so [01:54:39] you know, I i think that there is a real possibility that Andy Burnum [01:54:43] will go much further than Kier Starma would have in working with the [01:54:47] EU and taking some their rules in order to have better access to their [01:54:51] markets and he'd be right to do so, because this election is [01:54:55] going to be very different sort of politics, it's going to be about two different blocks and the [01:54:59] left wing want to be in the EU, well there's going to be lot more for us to discuss [01:55:03] in the next hour, ladies and gentlemen. in to get you the fact that [01:55:07] britain's pit benefits bill is to double by uh 2030, [01:55:11] all that and a whole lot more on late edition, but first it's [01:55:14] your [01:55:15] weather, [01:55:20] today clouds overhead, totals [01:55:24] and within box solar sponsors the weather [01:55:28] on GB News, hello there, good evening, welcome to your GB [01:55:32] news weather update from the Met office over. night we still expect a [01:55:36] little bit more rain and also some showers, still fairly windy, but [01:55:40] overall as we head into tomorrow it should be turning much drier. now [01:55:44] where we'll see the bulk the rain we'll still be where this cold front slowly sinks its way [01:55:48] southwards, also fair few showers across parts of Scotland, these [01:55:51] merging into longer spells of rain at times and also turning rather heavy [01:55:55] overnight. most the rain across the south will eventually clear [01:55:59] and we'll see mix of cloud and also some clearer skies, but still going to be [01:56:03] fairly blustery over... still certainly across the far north and [01:56:07] northwest and with the added cloud and also the winds that does mean temperatures won't be [01:56:11] dropping too low mostly between 9 to 12 degrees celsius. [01:56:15] though across the south it is still going to feel rather warm and [01:56:18] muggy. now across Scotland to start on Sunday, it's still going to be [01:56:22] rather wet and windy, still a few of those heavy showers skirting their way [01:56:25] eastwards. the old shower may also filter in around coasts of northern [01:56:29] island, northwest England, but elsewhere across England and Wales it [01:56:32] should be mostly dry start to Sunday. but still fairly warm, [01:56:36] still fairly muggy through the course the day will start to turn a little [01:56:40] bit fresher, we'll start to see winds lightening off and any showers across [01:56:44] Scotland will also eventually ease away, so for most for the second half [01:56:48] the weekend it should be dry, settled and with plenty of sunshine, and [01:56:52] although temperatures are coming down a not into tomorrow there'll be lighter winds, [01:56:56] more sunshine so it'll feel quite pleasant for many areas, temperatures widely [01:57:00] into the mid high teens if not into the low 20s across the east and [01:57:03] southeast of England. Now Monday, it's going to be turning warm [01:57:07] and muggy again, mostly dry across England and Wales, but towards [01:57:11] Scotland, Northern Ireland, Northwest England, quite cloudy here with spells [01:57:15] of rain and drizzle which may turn a little bit heavy over the hills and also starting to turn [01:57:19] quite windy across the northwest once again, lots of dry, settled weather across much [01:57:23] of England and Wales into next week and continuing to feel [01:57:26] warm. [01:57:29] Today clouds overhead, totals [01:57:33] and within.
