[00:01:40] of now a he's after the ocean, so we need river, we need an

[00:01:55] or or Ocean
[00:01:58] of the American, something like that.

[00:02:16] independent,
[00:02:17] of independent a now, independent then or independent then, independent
[00:02:21] now. Uh, the

[00:03:02] guardian heat pump subsidy to be cut to fund fence plan.
[00:03:06] all right, let's get the thoughts of my panel, let's see what we got
[00:03:10] here, all right, what should we lead
[00:03:12] of with? of fances
[00:03:12] of do the
[00:03:13] of independent place? yes, let's do the independent, it's
[00:03:17] a reveling in self-glory because it's 40 years
[00:03:20] old, and so they've chosen their front page today, they
[00:03:24] a put 15 incredibly
[00:03:25] of famous people on the front page, none of whom have ever read the independent.
[00:03:30] which is quite some achievement, yeah, yeah, 40th anniversary, we we
[00:03:34] celebrate the thinkers who have inspired and changed the world in that
[00:03:38] time and give you the chance to be one of our new
[00:03:41] voices, well
[00:03:42] hey hey, that's an idea from my show, i have my great british voices, you know
[00:03:46] a what, happy to see maggie thatcher on
[00:03:48] of there, mean i'm struggling to
[00:03:50] in recognize who half
[00:03:50] of these people lives, like when the strictly people come out, you have to work out who the celebrities are, it's a bit
[00:03:54] like that, i could
[00:03:56] in barack obama, maggie i
[00:03:58] in see, elon musk, I'm running out at that but
[00:04:02] else David
[00:04:03] Bowy David Bowy Shalom Rusty Malala
[00:04:06] operated
[00:04:10] who's the lady use messy
[00:04:12] of Tracy Emmen Musk where she oh
[00:04:16] yeah I'm winning the bingo here tonight aren't I but what I mean this is what about the
[00:04:20] old lady this is rather self-congratulatory I think is a what
[00:04:23] of in it's certainly
[00:04:24] of is up itself might be another way I'm not quite sure what they're trying to achieve with this headline but there
[00:04:28] we are well now Steven. is there they're trying to say that we have been
[00:04:32] bringing you independent news for the last 40 years and
[00:04:36] we're celebrating now with the people
[00:04:38] of who were recognizable at the time
[00:04:40] of interesting all right let's have
[00:04:41] of look at the front page
[00:04:42] of the telegraph um let's have look should we look at the Putin cease fire
[00:04:45] Putin breaks Trump's cease fire say Russia strikes Ukrainian
[00:04:49] energy sites hours after US president claims
[00:04:52] a a truce was agreed this is sort
[00:04:54] of the same sort of Iran sort of situation we having with Donald Trump where he
[00:04:58] says there's a cease far and of course. isn't of course there isn't at least he's
[00:05:01] trying very badly and like
[00:05:04] poorly poor
[00:05:06] of poorly, i think he is one
[00:05:08] of the worst statesman i've actually ever seen in my lifetime, my...
[00:05:12] 24 years, but I'm you know compared to I think the actual
[00:05:16] greats like Reagan, it's just rid ridiculous that be pretty bad
[00:05:20] though. Who's worse, K star or or Trump? Well, you
[00:05:23] know what, I'm a brit, so I'm always going to say Trump is
[00:05:27] worse, because ultimately I'm British, like
[00:05:31] I think the issue with this surely is that you know
[00:05:34] Putin is waging an imperialist war of
[00:05:37] conquest, but he's not, he doesn't want to cease fire, he wants to
[00:05:41] destroy. and subjugate Ukraine and you can't
[00:05:44] negotiate with that, you have to take it on and defeat
[00:05:48] it, so the idea
[00:05:49] you can do deal, this the art the deal, this is not a real estate in New York
[00:05:53] deal that Trump seems to think it is,
[00:05:55] it is geopolitics and he's so Trump is so plainly out of his
[00:05:59] depth when dealing with these big issues, this is the the
[00:06:03] consequence - sorry, yeah no, sorry
[00:06:07] if I interrupted there Paul, um, I think it's rather ironic
[00:06:11] that because of course the front page the telegraph and the mail are linked in terms
[00:06:14] these Ukraine stories -
[00:06:18] and I find it utterly appowing that
[00:06:21] Boris Johnson wants to pop up with some hair brain
[00:06:25] scheme, essentially he was prime minister, was he not
[00:06:28] when Ukraine got invaded, and if he had been any
[00:06:32] form of leader then what he would have done is
[00:06:36] rallied a coalition, not the willing, a coalition the
[00:06:40] able, and if we'd come together... with a large percentage
[00:06:44] of NATO countries for example, and we'd smashed
[00:06:48] Putin's army back to Moscow and kicked its rear end
[00:06:51] in the process once it had got back from the territory of
[00:06:55] Ukraine that it had unlawfully invaded, then none of this
[00:06:59] would be happening today, none of it would have occurred, but we didn't
[00:07:03] have any politicians with a spine to take
[00:07:06] computing the day he invaded and send his troops back,
[00:07:10] well got the spine now on the daily mail. 'where is no longer in
[00:07:13] politics, making suggestions on what should happenly
[00:07:17] reckless, but can I just say as much as I'd love to believe that we could kick
[00:07:20] Putin's ass, the point we just we don't, we're not what
[00:07:24] we used to be, we're not this great empire,
[00:07:27] you know, we're not a great power, we have very weakened defense, the reality is we don't have
[00:07:31] enough money, I mean, did you not hear me say rally a
[00:07:35] coalition the able,
[00:07:38] so who in in the EU, for example, our closest neighbors would be able, the
[00:07:42] whole Europe after decades of EU mismanagement is in complete
[00:07:45] austerity and crisis, NATO, yeah, NATO
[00:07:49] frequently has operations and exercises and
[00:07:53] we NATO could have put forward a force that would have
[00:07:56] sent Putin's murderous troops back from
[00:08:00] whence they came, but we don't have politicians with a
[00:08:04] spine, but NATO is defensive alliance, they will tell you that, so they're peacekeeping
[00:08:07] force, they're not really meant to be uh going on the offense, which
[00:08:11] is what the... uses every day, I said, use NATO
[00:08:14] countries, and of course we could have had perhaps our friends from
[00:08:18] America, which were under very different leadership at the time,
[00:08:22] but of course no one, no politician at the spine or even
[00:08:25] suggest it, let alone put it into action, and if we done that,
[00:08:29] Putin would have been taught a lesson, we wouldn't have the energy crisis we've got
[00:08:33] today, and the world would be better, more peaceful place as result of it, I think
[00:08:37] people thought that Putin might sort of quit, they thought that perhaps they could not
[00:08:41] appease him, but kind of... uh work with him and
[00:08:44] communicate with conversation and negotiation, but of course that's not
[00:08:48] what evidently not, mean i remember,
[00:08:50] i think they tried that first, trust said some comments i think on like
[00:08:54] um some radio show and putin came out with like oh i'm just going to nuke the
[00:08:58] UK, like this man is completely unhinged in in the way he
[00:09:02] deals with his foreign policy, not to be
[00:09:05] trusted, i don't think
[00:09:07] you can you can't obviously negotiate with some kind of you
[00:09:10] know beat his army back from whence they came. i
[00:09:14] just don't,
[00:09:15] that doesn't sound practical to me, that doesn't sound sensible to me. well, you can
[00:09:19] be done, because if you look at the fact that it's just a small country, Ukraine that
[00:09:22] has held off this Russian invasion for what, three, four years,
[00:09:26] it has developed a war economy, it's developed technology beyond anything we can
[00:09:30] imagine, and the drone technology, the robots that are now, all that Putin is doing
[00:09:34] is shoving young men into the grinder, increasing numbers
[00:09:38] including young men from Korea and and and and
[00:09:42] mer... and their average life expectancy is 19 minutes
[00:09:45] and ukraine has managed to stop them in their
[00:09:49] tracks which is astonishing military feet given the you
[00:09:53] know comparable sizes the countries and and like Peter says if we had
[00:09:56] just properly armed them and allowed them to done it properly
[00:10:00] then the Russians would have been sent back and that's the way you deal with
[00:10:04] aggressors you have to stand up to them you can't appease them you can't negotiate with
[00:10:08] them you have to defeat them there's been millions millions of our taxpayers
[00:10:11] money also put into Ukraine into defend,
[00:10:14] and whilst I'm not,
[00:10:16] I just don't know if it's if it's our business to be getting involved in that, and this is not
[00:10:20] because you say it has to be, but I, I don't see why our tax pays
[00:10:24] money should be. to foreign wars that have no effect on us, it does
[00:10:28] have an effect on us, because they are trying to undermine our economy, and there are examples of
[00:10:32] sabotage in the UK, they try to fire bomb the prime minister's house, you
[00:10:36] know, and they are disrupting our businesses, the national health
[00:10:40] service, but I think
[00:10:41] you know when you actually really go into the history of Ukraine and
[00:10:44] Russia, it's such a long, long conflict, it's an
[00:10:48] independent country that was minding it democracy, an independent
[00:10:52] democracy. autocratic
[00:10:55] leader and and of course Ukraine is known as the bread
[00:10:59] basket of Europe, so much of what we are paying more money for
[00:11:03] today in our supermarkets, is a direct result of
[00:11:07] this conflict which is needlessly going on and
[00:11:10] on and on. well of course uh Russia were signatory to
[00:11:14] Budapest memorandum which uh asked Ukraine to
[00:11:17] disarm, get rid of all the nuclear weapons and if
[00:11:20] there was a problem then Russia, I think it was also the UK, Northern
[00:11:23] Ireland and - other countries would get together, France and America
[00:11:27] would get together to protect, but unfortunately um it seems and Russia
[00:11:31] were part part of that saying they would protect, but of course they breach that, I mean one
[00:11:35] outcome has to be Ukraine joining NATO, once the Russians have been defeated
[00:11:39] Ukraine needs to join NATO, well I mean a lot of people argue that that
[00:11:42] would that would upset Putin or whatever, but I don't really care, I think
[00:11:46] Ukraine sovereign nation, they should do what they wanted if they wanted cowardly
[00:11:49] attitude towards upset Putin, I mean what cuz he's got
[00:11:53] nukes? and up to the man, it's the only way you deal
[00:11:57] with bullies is by standing up to them, not cow
[00:12:00] towing to them, and definitely not cowtowing, I just think I take a very sensible and practical
[00:12:04] approach, which is based on what I've plainly seen in conflict throughout
[00:12:08] history, doesn't end well for anybody, and I don't want British lives being
[00:12:12] lost at the front line of
[00:12:14] a conflict, which doesn't affect us, well the alternative could be worse, and we don't know what what to
[00:12:17] do about that, but the metro also leads Russia rolling Brexit, again
[00:12:21] more on Russia, and Andy Burnham said that there is a... clear evidence that
[00:12:25] Russia interfered in the Brexit vote, he said that he had
[00:12:29] asked if the Kremlin had medaled in the 2016 referendum
[00:12:33] when he entered number 10 in July and was given the clear
[00:12:37] answer that yes there was, it's believed to be the
[00:12:41] first time PM has confirmed Vladimir Putin tried to
[00:12:43] influence the vote. Okay, I mean look, I hear all this
[00:12:47] election interference and
[00:12:48] all of that, and I think yeah, but it's probably happening the other way around as well. I remember during the
[00:12:52] Brexit b we were we were given uh flyers. 'I think the government
[00:12:56] spent £8 million pounds to tell us why we should stay in the EU, so there's
[00:13:00] interference from all sides and it was down to the individuals to make up their minds what they wanted
[00:13:04] and what they thought, I think it's a bit, I think it's a bit much thinking that
[00:13:07] we were all persuaded by Russia, it's
[00:13:11] officially it's it's a joke, but when the result is so finally
[00:13:15] balanced as being a few percentage points either
[00:13:18] way, the briefing that he's describing is the one you get when you
[00:13:22] become the prime minister and the security service'. you down and
[00:13:25] talks you through the threats that are being faced by this
[00:13:29] nation, so that's what he's referring to, he is telling us, he
[00:13:33] is telling us that the Russians, according to our security services
[00:13:37] interfered in that Brexit vote, now I agree with Peter, I want to see the evidence for
[00:13:41] that, because that is a big big claim, it certainly fits in with the bigger picture of
[00:13:44] Russia's interference in all the other things we're doing, including our businesses and NHS and
[00:13:48] everything else, these massive hacking factories they have and all the stuff being
[00:13:52] pumped into our social media, but I want to see the... but
[00:13:55] it is serious threat, but he said he asked them and they said yes, like
[00:13:59] if you ask them they will say yes, of course they're going to say yes even,
[00:14:02] mean i'm sure they did try and interfere, but they're always interfering in all sorts of things and
[00:14:06] guess we probably do the same on other fronts, i just i don't know
[00:14:09] whether i don't think that would have made difference to the outcome, at the
[00:14:13] end the day um burnham is now a position whereby
[00:14:17] his judgment will be called into question and of course senior
[00:14:20] politicians particularly prime ministers judgment is very
[00:14:24] very... important thing. Paul is right that of course the security
[00:14:28] services brief our prime ministers, but it's not like they've got an
[00:14:32] unblemished record, is it? let's all think about Iraq for
[00:14:36] example, and a war that we shouldn't have got into.
[00:14:39] um, so we will have to see what uh
[00:14:43] Burnham's judgment capabilities are like.
[00:14:47] will be interesting, won't it? but yeah, so even if they did interfere, I'm not
[00:14:51] sure it would have affected the outcome, and there's interference in all sorts. things, mean
[00:14:55] someone may have had a coffee that interfered with the way they're thinking and they went
[00:14:59] crazy, mean in the end there so many things that
[00:15:02] interfere, actually thinking what you've had for breakfast whether
[00:15:06] you've eaten or not in the end i just think what what they said something on
[00:15:10] social media, oh i'm going to go along with that cuz i've eaten aquason and i
[00:15:14] feel my stomach's bloated and i don't know i just
[00:15:17] i don't think it made difference to the yeah well i see is that i'm really like this
[00:15:21] sort of headlines is quite strikes me is quite sinister because we all know that the political
[00:15:25] establishment are desperate to try to kind of get us back
[00:15:29] into the EU whichever way they can, and quite frankly this is
[00:15:33] propaganda to my mind, having a massive head and Russia role in Brexit, I mean
[00:15:37] we had... vote, yes, as you said, Paul,
[00:15:39] it was finally balanced, but the people made it very clear as to
[00:15:43] what that mandate was, and in 2019, Boris
[00:15:46] basically stood a Brexit election um,
[00:15:50] manifesto, and it was get Brexit done, and he
[00:15:52] got stunking majority, so I think that really shows you that the appetite for
[00:15:56] Brexit never left. All right, let's have look at this one on the sun,
[00:16:00] front cover the sun, bosses census slogan in
[00:16:04] vid, yeah, the BBC instructed transban. now
[00:16:08] okay, so this is this is about the BBC that embrawled a censorship row
[00:16:12] after they edited out t-shirt slogan worn by
[00:16:15] strictly star Bethany and Tonia. now the actress
[00:16:19] 28 was seen a rehearsals video wearing a
[00:16:22] protected the dolls top in support of trans
[00:16:25] women, but then uh it turned after the BBC
[00:16:29] blanked it out the Saturday's uh show, so of course they blanked
[00:16:33] out something that was in promotion promoting trans - protect.
[00:16:37] dolls i mean in support of trans women the BBC just
[00:16:41] took that out buse they weren't having that what what but they always do this don't they if you go
[00:16:45] on tv with a political slogan they'll they'll not allow it
[00:16:49] i remember people appearing top the pops with political slogans and they had to put
[00:16:53] gaffer tape over them the acts did before going on the tele cuuse the
[00:16:56] BBC doesn't like that sort of thing so i think that's the context for this is not
[00:17:00] specifically to do with trans just to do with political slogans well yeah but it's but
[00:17:04] it's in support of trans women so that is b' of a political slogan
[00:17:08] given given what's going on, protect the dolls is a political slogan, that's why they're saying
[00:17:12] it shouldn't have the bbc is saying yeah, well
[00:17:15] mean protect the dolls, didn't even realize that was is that
[00:17:19] pro trans women, so men
[00:17:22] men, i don't want to see
[00:17:26] that on tv and no one else, no one wants to be lectured, think everyone's
[00:17:30] sick of being having political messages to thrown in their faces when some people just
[00:17:34] want to relax and watch strictly so they're right to do that of course. for the rehearsal
[00:17:38] that I mean you know still what do you think Peter
[00:17:40] that the star uh the sun rather the sun please forgive me does
[00:17:44] some wonderful journalism
[00:17:46] this is not a part of that but
[00:17:49] you see I am old enough to remember an expression which don't worry I've cleaned it
[00:17:53] up for you when you if somebody was hypothesizing about
[00:17:57] something you would sort of take the mickey or by what
[00:18:01] they were saying you say yeah right and if me aunt had testicles she'd be my
[00:18:04] uncle yeah okay you all get the gist of what it meant. right, but now of
[00:18:08] course you can't really use that phrase can you, because your ant could have testicles and be your
[00:18:12] uncle or the other way around. it's a confusing landscape for an old
[00:18:16] b like me these days. very confusing, it's actually the reality is it's
[00:18:20] straightforward. look, i i don't care that they blank this out, if the political
[00:18:23] messages then i think they should do that, i think finally they did something that was the right
[00:18:27] thing to do, i'm just surprised about the bbc honestly, but i'm surprised leave
[00:18:31] it in there, mean just because because the way they are, i'm more
[00:18:35] worried about i don't know any the people in. are am I alone in this who are these
[00:18:39] celebrities? they seem to be the sons and the daughters of
[00:18:43] famous people, and load of other people I've never heard of. Don't worry,
[00:18:47] you'll recognize me next year, we we're longing for
[00:18:51] that day, probably the wrong kind of black,
[00:18:54] sadly can you dance though, lots of
[00:18:57] moves,
[00:18:59] swims, and I want to
[00:19:02] see what can peter do, american smooth, dancing,
[00:19:06] oh, there are no. there are no limits, i'd love to see peter, there's
[00:19:10] literally no start to your, but my dancing ability is
[00:19:14] inherently linked to the amount of
[00:19:17] alcohol, peter and nana for strictly,
[00:19:22] coming all up, right, the stay benefit
[00:19:23] with system us, failing, the times reveals nearly two million on
[00:19:27] sickness benefits are left unchecked, and in the ipaper warning of tax rises
[00:19:31] to come as John Healey scrambles to find funds to plug,

[00:20:01] the truth the matter? So that's a very live question. Would you support him if he waters
[00:20:05] down these plants? Before the... spin sets in, I'll be getting to the
[00:20:09] truth. This is this is personal. No soft questions, no
[00:20:13] easy answers. It's one thing if the state has rules in this country. It's
[00:20:17] another thing whether the police and others actually police them. Setting the
[00:20:21] agenda and holding those in power to account. You can't really
[00:20:25] blame her if the system is set up this way. You will not want to miss

[00:22:43] Only on GB News. Britain's news
[00:22:45] channel.
[00:22:51] "welcome back to Alex Armstrong tonight, late edition with me Nanna Queer. Right,
[00:22:55] let's have look at tomorrow's front pages. Let's have look at the times, it
[00:22:59] leads with almost two million on sickness benefit may not
[00:23:03] qualify. Wow, and the I paper leads with the
[00:23:07] tax rises needed to plug, the 35 billion pound gap, UK
[00:23:11] economists warn. Uh, okay, and there's a bit more
[00:23:15] as well, but let's get the thoughts of uh, my panel tonight.
[00:23:19] Um, should we start? with what i say the times, almost 2
[00:23:22] million on sickness benefit may not
[00:23:25] qualify. well, well, well, so ministers
[00:23:29] are paying out sickness benefits to almost two million people without
[00:23:33] knowing whether they still qualify. now that is no surprise to me at
[00:23:37] all, i don't suppose lot of you are surprised by that as well. um, that's a times
[00:23:41] investigation which is revealing that more than two-thirds of claiments who
[00:23:44] said who should be reassessed have not yet been
[00:23:48] seen. the... average weight is more than two years
[00:23:51] and one person has been waiting for 16 years, according to
[00:23:55] the department for work and pensions,
[00:23:57] the DWP according to their records. well, well, well,
[00:24:01] I'll come to you, Paul, Richards, well, absolute shocker,
[00:24:05] really, it is an absolute shocker, I mean the welfare state was divised after the
[00:24:09] war uh, to prevent people falling into poverty like they had done
[00:24:13] in the 20s and 30s because of
[00:24:14] you know the trade cycle, right, it's not supposed to be
[00:24:18] lifestyle choice for... millions of people to not work,
[00:24:22] it's supposed to be there to pick you up if you fall into hard times on your way
[00:24:26] back into a job, and we have to get back to the idea that this is something that you
[00:24:29] can dip into if you've paid into it uh, but the presumption is if
[00:24:33] you can work you do, and we seem to have lost that, but I think the current
[00:24:37] crop of ministers do seem to be recognizing for both moral
[00:24:41] reasons but also financial reasons that we can't afford this kind
[00:24:45] of thing where there are millions and millions of people who are not being productive any way shape or
[00:24:49] form.
[00:24:50] and we were discussing earlier about the need for growth in the economy, you've got to get
[00:24:53] people working in whatever they can do uh and paying
[00:24:57] their taxes and being productive and getting them off these kinds of this
[00:25:00] long years and years and gravy train, it's a gravy train, well
[00:25:04] i don't think it's masses of money, but it just means that
[00:25:07] people, it means that people can just sort of subs you know be
[00:25:11] subsistence for for decades two million people shouldn't
[00:25:14] apply, shouldn't qualify for welfare being paid it, and somebody here has
[00:25:18] been waiting for 16. which is disgraceful, which means that if you can work you
[00:25:22] should, but you need people need help, so they do need the skills, because there's also new
[00:25:26] jobs now that people can't do, and they need um, they need you, maybe some
[00:25:30] sanctions as well, a bit of a carrot and stick approach, but they need to
[00:25:34] be jobs there too for people, but you can't just, this is not sustainable. I
[00:25:38] note with interest Paul, that you said ministers are waking up to this, what
[00:25:42] about those lefty lunatic back benches that will thwart any
[00:25:46] kind of welfare reform, a prime minister or any other minister tries?
[00:25:50] to push through, well they they did thought the ones that Liz Kendle attempted to do under
[00:25:54] Starmer, but I think there's a different mood now because the numbers, the figure, the
[00:25:57] financial figures being so different and the recognition this just has to be, there
[00:26:01] has to be a grip. on this, we shall see, I mean the government will founder, without
[00:26:05] growth the government will founder,
[00:26:07] you know, that is the that's the load stuff, I wish those in public service,
[00:26:10] scandal, I mean, our welfare state is already on the brink of like
[00:26:14] complete destruction because of abuse, and to read these kind of
[00:26:18] headlines and understand that these people are still being paid
[00:26:22] out with with literally no idea whether they're in fact eligible is really making
[00:26:26] mockery of all the taxpayers and all the hard-working people who are
[00:26:29] frankly what are we being taken advantage of effectively by the state, mean this is an
[00:26:33] absolute, this is a scandal, and
[00:26:36] you know the sooner this is, mean to be to be paying to be having ideas of net
[00:26:40] zero and all these ridiculous policies coming from from
[00:26:44] labor when there are real things that they could actually be solving,
[00:26:48] well of course it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy of
[00:26:52] disaster, because the more people on benefits you've only got a
[00:26:55] finite number of those who will check them, and the more they the
[00:26:59] more playments there are, the less
[00:27:02] the those... do our task with checking them can reach out and do. I just wish
[00:27:06] everybody in public service in this country, from the prime minister, the
[00:27:09] civil service to everybody across all public services. I
[00:27:13] wish they would look after the country's finances
[00:27:17] and their budgets as carefully as me and my wife look
[00:27:21] after our domestic budgets. Well, just to your point,
[00:27:24] um, Alice, where you were talking about everybody, so many people being on benefits and the government coming
[00:27:28] up with hair brain schemes, was streating came up with an idea for sp'.
[00:27:34] and then when he was asked on LBC by Nick Ferrari, so how much is it going to cost?
[00:27:38] he went, oh, and he didn't know, he hadn't even, so he said, well, just give us an
[00:27:42] idea, if you want the tax payer to fund this, how much
[00:27:44] is it going, oh, you've got me, I usually get the answer for
[00:27:48] this time, you got, it's like, this isn't a cat, we're streating out, this
[00:27:52] is point of order that we're making to you, that if you want to come up with these hair brain
[00:27:56] schemes, you need to know how much they cost, if you're going to dish out money like this, you need
[00:28:00] to know who you're dishing it out to, and once again 'we're spending money for
[00:28:04] old rope, because most these people probably don't qualify, shouldn't be on the list, and we've
[00:28:07] been paying for years, no, and you know what, this winter, there are going to be lot of old people, lot of
[00:28:11] elderly vulnerable people who are going to be in crisis because of gas
[00:28:15] prices and lack of heating and cost of living,
[00:28:19] and you know, and if that, mean i would almost be funny about the
[00:28:23] space thing if it wasn't like that people's lives are on the line
[00:28:26] here, and you know, to stimulate the economy we need
[00:28:29] people in work, you don't do that by putting them a cycle where they can
[00:28:33] basically effectively earn more from welfare benefits than they can a
[00:28:37] job, but that's the state of things. yeah,
[00:28:39] it is the state of things. i think we have to go, should we go quickly to
[00:28:43] the
[00:28:44] eye and then, but i want to go to the guardian, the met police, a met chief
[00:28:47] back drive for more black officers. so this is
[00:28:51] story where um metropolitan police chief
[00:28:54] Marky has said that his force must recruit more
[00:28:58] black and Asian officers to gain the trust of
[00:29:01] minority. communities in London and vowed not to be blown off
[00:29:05] course by culture wars. The right has criticized police drives
[00:29:09] for diversity claiming that they lead to lower standards really said
[00:29:12] that as a leader of major organization he was prepared to take
[00:29:16] a stand against toxicity surrounding diversity
[00:29:20] debate and criticized other leaders for running away from the
[00:29:23] subject and just to give you a little ball park here he said that in London
[00:29:27] 46% the people um uh in London
[00:29:31] 46% of people. but only 18% of met officers are
[00:29:34] from minority ethnic backgrounds, so it's sort of
[00:29:38] trying equalize each county, mean it's i don't, find it a
[00:29:42] bit absurd really, i thought i'd enter a time capsule, this is
[00:29:46] headline that has been trailed just about every decade, i can
[00:29:50] remember going back to the 70s, 70s, 80s, 90s and so on
[00:29:54] and so forth, and it's never been achieved by
[00:29:58] policing, now it's all well and good for him to say it, and it might be
[00:30:01] laughdable, but as long as there are certain communities
[00:30:05] that really inherently don't like the police, you are not going to
[00:30:09] welcome those people into it, well and also if your uh
[00:30:13] force is kind of overwhelmed with things like misogyny and
[00:30:17] homophobia and other bits and pieces, especially the sexism
[00:30:20] racis and everything else like that, if if
[00:30:22] it were me I'd say well deal with that first mate, deal with that and then maybe
[00:30:26] people from those groups will want to join, but if you can't deal with that
[00:30:30] then I mean why would anyone want to join? something that is is gripped in all
[00:30:34] sorts of nonsense and the met have made strides on that. was
[00:30:38] in the police in dark days when racism was compulsory
[00:30:42] let alone a part the organization um and of course it's moved
[00:30:45] on an enormous amount since then and certain people
[00:30:49] deserve credit along the way, but um I'm
[00:30:52] afraid as long as Mark Roley, let's remember this is the
[00:30:56] commissioner that refused to accept that the Metropolitan police was
[00:31:00] institutionally racist. 'he refused to accept that
[00:31:04] definition, largely I think because he doesn't understand
[00:31:08] it, um, now for him to come out with this, well do,
[00:31:11] I, I, I, I, I will push back on that because I don't believe.' things are
[00:31:15] institutionally or or structurally racist, I think it's the individuals within the
[00:31:18] organization that should actually be held to account, because I think as soon as you blame a
[00:31:22] structure or institution or then then you are absolving
[00:31:26] those and giving them excuse for their racism, so I i don't agree with that, I
[00:31:30] think individuals are racist, if an organization enables or allows that,
[00:31:33] then all those within that organization should be held up and made accountable, and
[00:31:37] then you won't have an organization full of racists, buse that's what it is really
[00:31:41] uh, no the met's not full of racis, explaining.
[00:31:52] racis
[00:31:52] is and full that's of why he would say that it's not that uh, but the truth is
[00:31:56] that I don't believe in institutional structural racist, they're just individuals within an organization being
[00:32:00] racist and being allowed to be what is special I think about our
[00:32:04] policing in this country is that is citizens in uniform and we
[00:32:08] police by consent, those are the peelight principles on which is it's not a
[00:32:12] state-run thing, they're not routinely armed. not a sort of uniform
[00:32:16] paramilitary uh, they are there because allow it to happen,
[00:32:20] right? that's how policing works. um, and i think therefore the argument is
[00:32:24] that the police force should look like the citizenry that it is policing
[00:32:27] itself.
[00:32:30] i am glad
[00:32:30] we have moved beyond where
[00:32:31] we were and like it remember the 70s where the police force
[00:32:35] 98% of it white policing communities that were
[00:32:39] not, and i think you do need to have reflection of society in the
[00:32:42] policing, but of course it shouldn't be a... expense of getting the best people in the
[00:32:46] job and it should be a supportive for everyone to come in
[00:32:49] but then be equal within the service so that people have trust in the
[00:32:52] service bause it's all about consent but part of getting the best people in the job is to get people who
[00:32:56] aren't racist so it wouldn't matter what color they are they just shouldn't be racist
[00:33:00] misojenists homophobes do what i mean if you can do that then
[00:33:03] you'll naturally those within those categories where that thrives within a
[00:33:07] monoculture doesn't it which is why you need to have the police force looking
[00:33:11] like society but that would happen if you had the best people for the job because you get
[00:33:15] the people who aren't racist and all those things so you'd end up with a force of of great people
[00:33:19] rather than a force of people who just
[00:33:22] i don't making up the numbers yeah mean i don't remember the 70s
[00:33:25] but the line from mark rowly that
[00:33:29] effective policing depends on inclusivity i think just strikes me as
[00:33:33] completely odd and just rubbish exactly i don't think we should sacrifice as you
[00:33:37] said meritocratic qualities will make someone good for a job isn't
[00:33:41] the color their skin it's it's whether they are actually competent.
[00:33:45] "and as you said, if they are competent, they're very likely not going to be
[00:33:49] discriminatory types of people, and that is who I i want
[00:33:53] policing, that is how I want to
[00:33:54] the street, I really don't care about your skin color, I want you to be good at your job and
[00:33:58] I want to feel safe in your hands, and unfortunately, you know, whatever
[00:34:01] initiatives are being thrown about that, I, I'm sure many Londoners
[00:34:05] would agree that that's not quite the case, just get the best people for the job who aren't the sort
[00:34:09] of people you're recruiting now, some them
[00:34:11] uh have all those negative qualities and eventually it'll
[00:34:14] all even itself." but that's what I see uh, but it's down to, I guess,
[00:34:18] I, I don't, I don't agree with the positive discrimination, I think it's unfortunately, it
[00:34:22] ends up with low quality people, just for the sake the fact that they're a certain color, and we
[00:34:26] don't want that. All right, coming up, the front page the express, tourists in
[00:34:30] London are being scammed by organized migrant groups. This is

[00:38:26] thanks for joining us on. news Britain's news
[00:38:29] channel,
[00:38:38] good evening, welcome back to Alex Armstrong Tonight Late edition, I'm nana
[00:38:41] aquier right, joining me now um
[00:38:44] oh yes ahead the day show live at midnight is GB News's
[00:38:47] Ben Leo uh Ben, what's coming up
[00:38:50] tonight? Hey, I hope you're well, hello to
[00:38:54] viewers and listeners, coming up at midnight is... is Andy
[00:38:58] Burnham, he's been doing the rounds recently the last 24 hours, hasn't he? I wonder what he's
[00:39:02] trying to distract everybody from, maybe something to do with the UAE and
[00:39:05] Manchester, but that's just my opinion. um, Burnham has come out
[00:39:09] and spoken about the public executions taking place here in the United
[00:39:13] States, one being the former army major who was responsible for the
[00:39:16] Forthood murders, he gun down 13 US military personnel
[00:39:20] at Forthood in Texas in 2009, he's now being put to death by Firing
[00:39:24] Squad um on December the 3rd, which P the secretary of
[00:39:28] war said would be live streamed for the world to see um,
[00:39:32] mean the death penalty debate is one thing, but whether it should be live streamed or not, is
[00:39:36] another conversational together, but Andy Burnham has come out and given his
[00:39:39] opinion both on the death penalty and separately the facts that this
[00:39:43] execution will be live streamed for the world's um
[00:39:46] interest, so uh, I won't reveal what his answer is on both
[00:39:50] those topics of conversation, but uh, at 12 o'clock I will reveal
[00:39:54] his quite in-depth comments actually, and his reasoning. behind
[00:39:58] his stance elsewhere tonight, um, Russian interference,
[00:40:02] Bernham again, again, I wonder what he's distracting from, I don't know, but he's talking about a Russian
[00:40:05] interference in Brexit, we heard it here in the United States with President
[00:40:09] Trump's first term in 2016 onwards, the Russia collusion hoax, all the
[00:40:13] nonsense about um Trump being uh, how do I describe
[00:40:17] this at this hour, um, up to no good with Russian prostitutes in Moscow,
[00:40:21] complete lies, complete bs, it's the Russia, Russia, Russia, hoax again, I'd like
[00:40:25] to see Andy Burnham's proof that Russia. interfered in the
[00:40:28] 2016 election uh, it's taken 10 years for somebody even
[00:40:31] mention this for the first time, and even if they did potentially with
[00:40:35] bots or something like that, which could be feasible, no more, I'd argue than the
[00:40:39] likes the European Union or the Obama administration interfering in the
[00:40:43] Brexit vote all those years ago, so all that and more uh coming up after midnight,
[00:40:47] nana, yeah, looking forward to it, thank you very much, ben leo, make so live stay with
[00:40:51] us for that, thank you, all right, let's take a look at tomorrow's front pages, well the
[00:40:55] telegraph leads with Megan Mark public appearance, she's
[00:40:58] back, she's managed to get get on the front cover of that one and the
[00:41:02] mail uh, and the mirror hero tried to save him, of course that's about the
[00:41:06] the tiger situation, that poor gentleman who's more by the tiger, all right, let's
[00:41:10] do it, let's take a look at megan markle, she wants us to anyway, i don't know why
[00:41:14] um, they're telling us that she went
[00:41:16] out, she she went out
[00:41:20] people uh, apparently her first public appearance um in
[00:41:24] collaboration with April Winfrey's charity mom's
[00:41:27] offering on the move or offering move, offering more, think it is, cuz
[00:41:31] my, i can't read through these glasses, but anyway, so she's there again on the front
[00:41:35] page, i mean they went off, they didn't really like this
[00:41:39] country, the... come out with load of documentaries that slayed the royal family
[00:41:42] and indeed - our wonderful queen
[00:41:46] Elizabeth um died with that whole sort of racism
[00:41:50] thing above her and then Harry goes out and speaks to Tom Bradbury and says racism what
[00:41:54] racism the people i no one racist it was unconscious bias oh
[00:41:58] god I don't know really Nanna you are so
[00:42:01] disparaging
[00:42:04] Mega Markal dared to face the autumn
[00:42:07] chill a hoodie and pulled a funny face
[00:42:11] and stuck her sort of mouth a rather strange position when the
[00:42:15] photographer took her picture. will this woman get
[00:42:19] off our front pages out of our news and out of
[00:42:22] our lives? the answer to my own question is no, cuz they
[00:42:26] need to make living somehow don't they? and by pedling their
[00:42:30] own tarnished brand, this is what we have
[00:42:34] to suffer. yeah, well surely alice is a fan of
[00:42:38] of you're young person. truly you you're drinking the
[00:42:41] coolaid much prefer maggie thatcher is my hero to megan
[00:42:45] mark mean it's just ridiculous and i think there's point to be made about why they're still trying to make
[00:42:49] her relevant because frankly i don't think my generation and i'm jenzi
[00:42:53] find her particularly interesting or insightful
[00:42:57] and so really like i wonder
[00:42:58] to as to who exactly the they're appealing to here because think everyone sort of
[00:43:02] moved on with their lives you got anything to say
[00:43:06] about this well when when she joined the royal family did you from moment
[00:43:10] think she might be a bit of a breath of fresh air and i thought you know might be quite good then the
[00:43:14] institution needed a bit of freshening up perhaps but mean oh my gosh
[00:43:18] no longer
[00:43:19] is she's gone down the pair them are gone down this rabbit hole now where they just have to keep
[00:43:23] pumping publicity out to remain relevant to keep their
[00:43:27] income up and to keep in the public eye but mean why have two newspapers
[00:43:31] decided to put this on the front page you on the brink of world war ii
[00:43:35] there's also sort of things going on with man city and tigers and god why
[00:43:39] on earth two paper record this woman on the front because there
[00:43:43] is a massive revelation contained within no it's
[00:43:47] a massive revelation if you look at the picture the other way up you can see that the
[00:43:50] slogan on her sleeve says it's the
[00:43:54] little things which may be reference to her husband's
[00:43:58] nether regions no come on that's not fair on harry come on he what
[00:44:02] did was it the 8 hour cream he used and put it in the oh god
[00:44:04] i don't want to think about that megan mark is not here to defend herself to be fair to us
[00:44:08] so let's move on Let's move to the Tiger attack, a horror
[00:44:12] at Tiger Park, hero tried to save him, this is very,
[00:44:16] very
[00:44:16] uh tragic story, woman desperately tried to pull back the uh tragic
[00:44:19] man who climbed into a tiger pen, a witness has revealed,
[00:44:23] zo goer said that the hero was not strong enough to stop the man
[00:44:27] jumping into the eclosure in doncaster where he was killed by the
[00:44:31] siberian tiger altai, they said that the man pulled
[00:44:34] away and dropped um 12
[00:44:38] feet adding that he started yelling at the tiger and waving his finger at
[00:44:42] him, yelling no, and the tiger grabbed him by the neck. York
[00:44:45] Wildlife Park, which was closed yesterday, after Saturday's attack said as
[00:44:49] sympathies remain with the loved ones the man who lost his
[00:44:52] life. It's very sad. I mean, it used to be that the cages were there
[00:44:56] to stop the animals getting out, but now they have to be there to stop people getting in, and
[00:45:00] that is the danger. People are, I mean, I don't want to speculate about this
[00:45:04] man's motives, but I, I suspect he was not necessarily right in the
[00:45:08] head, and we need to... way to stop people doing this as copy
[00:45:12] cat because I mean it's just horrific and his poor family must be just
[00:45:16] thinking how on earth was this allowed to happen yeah I think if you
[00:45:19] know if this was someone I was related to obviously
[00:45:23] you know he's probably not most most mentally stable person but
[00:45:27] why wasn't there someone on guard there with some kind of weapon that could that could
[00:45:31] prevent this attack from from taking his life I don't know whether I
[00:45:35] think it was quite quick really you know like by the sounds of it he waved
[00:45:39] his finger and then the tiger. grab them by
[00:45:41] the neck even then all your essential veins are there, yeah there should always be someone I think
[00:45:45] or some kind of may you know someone there to to prevent this kind of thing from
[00:45:48] happening emergency situations because it's a man here but what if it was a small child who made a
[00:45:52] mistake who accidentally got tipped over this thing but this is the
[00:45:56] thing that has to there should be someone there all right well listen loads more still to come uh last
[00:46:00] look at tomorrow's front pages this is Alex Armstrong tonight late
[00:46:03] edition.

[00:47:22] This was. is personal, no soft questions, no easy
[00:47:25] answers. It's one thing if the state has rules in this country, it's another thing

[00:49:01] Howard. This is GB News, Britain's news
[00:49:04] channel.
[00:49:13] Welcome back to Alex Armstrong tonight Late Edition with me Nanna Aquare. We were talking
[00:49:17] about the story on the mirror hero tried to save him. This is the story the horror
[00:49:21] attack at the tiger.
[00:49:22] that part mental Petersley um, I'm not going to prejudge this because of course the
[00:49:26] investigation is still ongoing, however
[00:49:29] what I will say from very personal perspective is once upon a time I had a
[00:49:33] catastrophic mental health led breakdown to
[00:49:36] which me being hospitalized as result of it. health
[00:49:39] During breakdown
[00:49:42] I did things that I would never have dreamed of doing before or since they just
[00:49:45] happened in the midst of that catastrophic bout of
[00:49:49] ill health that I went through um whatever. my thoughts are
[00:49:53] with the uh those who loved the man who's lost his life?
[00:49:56] yeah, very, very sad indeed. all right, watch we look at final
[00:50:00] story. uh, there's a man city story that's on
[00:50:03] the the uh top the express, victory in the face of
[00:50:07] cheat taunts. now, you can tell me more about this, can't you Paul? well, there was a
[00:50:11] moment, I think today when every football fan in the land was Liverpool, just
[00:50:14] temporarily, wanting to see city lose, no,
[00:50:18] because they cheated their way to their position where they are, they're
[00:50:22] heated and they have to suffer the consequences, you cannot have a situation
[00:50:26] where you can do this and then prosper from it. you
[00:50:30] see, do you got football regularly? not regularly, few times a season,
[00:50:34] right? and who do you support? manchester united, right? okay, well let me
[00:50:38] just point out to you fundamentally that not everybody a day was a
[00:50:41] Liverpool fan, i spec there's a huge number of everton fans would never be a
[00:50:45] Liverpool fan, i would never support Liverpool anyway shape
[00:50:49] or form and my dislike of that club. goes back to
[00:50:53] 1976 and clearly I still haven't got over it cuz the leak
[00:50:56] anyway um moving on yeah let's just
[00:51:00] unfortunately the premiership is in the grip of
[00:51:03] kind of inertia because the sanctions need to be applied
[00:51:07] to man city before the whole game of high-end football can
[00:51:11] move yeah just quickly bontain's dc
[00:51:15] the best band their generation
[00:51:18] silence from the panel fontaines dc.
[00:51:22] are they everyone there
[00:51:25] is, i think the blossoms are
[00:51:28] better, i've never heard
[00:51:30] them, must be really old, mean
[00:51:34] they've got some good tunes, but the best band of all time new song, mariann
[00:51:38] just dropped, yeah i should look forward to seeing
[00:51:42] or listening to that, fontain
[00:51:45] dc spotify on your way home,
[00:51:48] now probably quite a good good song
[00:51:52] download platforms are available, i've never heard of any
[00:51:55] absolutely, absolutely. what should we, what should we finish this off
[00:51:59] with? should we go for hely must find
[00:52:03] 35 billion on? you know where should he get the money from Paul
[00:52:06] Richard? well, we were saying this earlier, but most government departments are
[00:52:10] wasting money on stuff that they don't need to spend on. i said there are savings
[00:52:14] within the system you can generate, and i think he's somebody's made his
[00:52:18] reputation on saying i want to increase defense expenditure, he's going to have to
[00:52:22] deliver that over the next few years. um, maybe it not be in this budget because
[00:52:26] the tight money that's described there, um, maybe not even the spending
[00:52:30] review, but we are going to have to get our defense expenditure up to the NATO
[00:52:33] target - you've got about 10 seconds, well this is the thing, where is the
[00:52:37] money going to come from? mean, the can we start with maybe
[00:52:41] axing these ridiculous policies like that? zero, say that would be
[00:52:45] good. how much money i wonder the government spend on special
[00:52:49] advisers? it's our money, it's our
[00:52:52] money, not that much, not that much, i'm both every penny.
[00:52:56] if you're a politician and you get to very high office then why do you need
[00:53:00] special advisors exactly? well listen, i've got on that bombshell, thank you very much
[00:53:04] my brilliant. panel, former labor advisor, Paul
[00:53:06] Richards, former and Alice, oh,
[00:53:10] I've forgot to surname becuse they've taken, they've done something. All right, well listen, up next it
[00:53:14] is, live with ben
[00:53:16] leo, thank you very much. Uh, Andy
[00:53:20] Burnham is distracting us from something, I don't know what it could be,
[00:53:23] maybe is it the Everton score, is it his haircut, I don't know, he wants us
[00:53:27] to look away at something, and that's why he's been doing the media rounds, most
[00:53:31] notably he's spoken out about the death penalty, and indeed the case here. in the
[00:53:35] United States the former army major who's been put to firing squad uh which is going to be live
[00:53:39] streamed by the Pentagon, all his comments burn and where does he stand on the death penalty?
[00:53:43] does he agree with the live stream? all that coming up in just
[00:53:45] tick.
[00:53:52] expect warm spells with the odd rude
[00:53:56] interruption. box boiler sponsors the weather
[00:54:00] on GB News. hello there, good evening and
[00:54:04] welcome to your latest GB news weather forecast increasing
[00:54:08] cloud over the next 24 hours, some outbreaks of rain
[00:54:11] and drizzle pushing north and eastwards, but turning increasingly mild,
[00:54:15] Atlantic weather system slowly pushing in from the
[00:54:19] west as we move through tonight and into tomorrow, moving away that ridge of
[00:54:23] high pressure. clearing skies for a time though this evening across northern and
[00:54:27] eastern parts the UK turning chilly before the cloud and rain
[00:54:31] arrives from the west here, temperatures rising through the night and
[00:54:35] double figures for many here, still single figures towards Monday
[00:54:39] morning in the far east, but for all of us, a frost-free start to
[00:54:43] Monday morning, gray skies in the west, outbreaks of rain and drizzle,
[00:54:46] hillfog in places, limited brightness across the east though,
[00:54:50] best of this will be across northern and eastern Scotland, first thing,
[00:54:53] temperatures here on the Chile side, across western Scotland,
[00:54:57] cloudy start, outbreaks of rainages all similar across Northern
[00:55:01] Ireland, western parts of England and Wales, few glims are...
[00:55:05] us down the east coast of England before the cloud thickens as we move
[00:55:09] through the morning. i breaks of rain and drizzle slowly pushing north and
[00:55:12] eastwards through the day. we could see one or two heavier bursts but it will generally be light
[00:55:16] and patchy. the wind's coming in from the south fairly breezy
[00:55:20] around the coasts and with that breeze it may just help break the cloud
[00:55:24] up at times in one or two spots to allow few brighter breaks
[00:55:28] or some sunny spells trying to move through but most of us it will be cloudy
[00:55:31] but much milder temperatures in the high teens for most. locally
[00:55:35] getting to 20-21 celsius where we do see any
[00:55:39] sunshine, heavy rain in
[00:55:40] the northwest, monday night will push slowly southeastwards through
[00:55:44] Tuesday, turning much brighter behind it with sunshine and
[00:55:47] blustery showers, showers most frequent in the north-west
[00:55:51] here and temperatures again reaching the high teens, dry day on

[01:00:18] Good morning, the prime minister backs president Trump's energy ceasefire
[01:00:22] between Russia and Ukraine, calling it the best route to getting

[01:00:48] it. And GB News is in the Falkland
