stronger than regular bad. yeah i think so. a little bit terrible but very strong person and or you can go in the or only other place you'll be able to dnnk other place you'll be able to drink festival in drink is the fan festival in doha, where you'll be able to get a bud at £12 for less than a pint . and so and what people are pint. and so and what people are really annoyed about is the u—turn and not just they're u—turn and it's not just they're not they said not drinking it. so they said you'd able to drink in the stadiums 48 before stadiums now 48 hours before kick suddenly can. and kick off you suddenly can. and so people going kick off you suddenly can. and so because )eople going kick off you suddenly can. and so because especially going kick off you suddenly can. and so because especially english mad because especially english people drink, people because we like to drink, that's and again, that's our culture. and again, it's tension the it's another tension of the qatar it's like, qatar world cup. it's like, should be allowed to, you should you be allowed to, you know, culture or know, bring your own culture or do have to follow the qatari rules. in this case, we didn't have rules it have to follow the rules it looks was very similar looks like it was very similar in a way to that thing with the danish film crew. did you see that they trying to that where they were trying to film? to him and film? people came up to him and said, can't, going to said, you can't, we're going to smash it's so smash your camera. so it's so it's and they said, well, it's like and they said, well, look, you've invited world here. which it? so it's which which is it? so it's another one of these tensions, although do have a sex although they do have a sex ban, which get to later, which we'll get on to later, which we'll get on to later, which i'm i'm more in approval of you're not of because. it's you're not allowed unless allowed to have sex unless you're during you're married in qatar during

the but we can get the world cup. but we can get on to attacking to that later. yes. attacking western journalists banning to that later. yes. attacking wester banning ists banning to that later. yes. attacking wester banning sex banning to that later. yes. attacking wester banning sex asnning to that later. yes. attacking wester banning sex as well. booze, banning sex as well. apparently the qatari regime are having rebrand, having trouble with the rebrand, aren't do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's a do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's a bit do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's a bit of do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's a bit of a do, but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's a bit of a storm but having trouble with the rebrand, athink it's a bit of a storm in|t i think it's a bit of a storm in the teacup really, because you're football you're talking about football match. you've come there to watch . that's you watch football. that's what you should these should be focusing on. these yourself. want yourself. anthony, i want a season ticket ticket my well for the for the today i'm going to speak for the whole nation you know you guys that's the football it's 90 minutes you're telling me that you can't find your way around enjoying the football and then drink somewhere else , know if you have somewhere else, know if you have to when you back to hotel to when you back to the hotel or in england fans think they in some england fans think they can that so think when he can do that so think when he said storm in a teacup was a pun on teetotal. absolutely it's just swimming in the storm about zero. yeah, that do it they did also point like further down in that article because they were complaining just generally the concessions so i think you know like a greek salad was going to £9. yeah i was saying it was a terrible looking salad. so they

were just going through all of the provisions i couldn't help thinking, you know, with everything that's in everything that's going on in the world, you know, people dying in order to build stadia. the world, you know, people dyinwhat»rder to build stadia. the world, you know, people dyinwhat we've) build stadia. the world, you know, people dyinwhat we've gotild stadia. the world, you know, people dyinwhat we've got here adia. the world, you know, people dyinwhat we've got here isia. and what we've got here is a tripadvisor sort of preview of the of the terrible provisions in the you could argue, since we've been through so much to get the work up, they could at least do it right the flip side of the argument, yes, i'm also very much against the stadium test. the nachos test. that's not the nachos value at £4, $60 a star to complain after couple of complain after a couple of zeros. that's great. that spot. let's now at the let's have a look now at the eyes front page . what are eyes of front page. what are they leading with? okay, so this is leading with something which i think everybody would have known about really if they'd had an interest in the news and said maybe consider facts. but the treasury is now saying that if the government by its plan to immigration to the country that that will necessitate a rise in taxation and a loss of public

service amenity resulting from that. service amenity resulting from that . and it's kind of i mean, that. and it's kind of i mean, we're returning to an old argument we had a long time ago. you know it's like people pay taxes , young people pay more taxes, young people pay more taxes, young people pay more taxes than old people. we're an ageing country. taxes than old people. we're an ageing country . we need young ageing country. we need young people in, this country to work and pay tax in order to maintain triple locks and all that sort of thing . so essentially what of thing. so essentially what you're looking at is at some point there's going be some kind of civil war slash reckoning. i think within the conservative party where you're going to have one group of people going to make this work, we're going to need to have people in. and another group . no, no, no. we another group. no, no, no. we can't have brown people coming in. issue is, i, i in. well, the issue is, i, i think it's a worthy debate to have, you national have, as you said, a national conversation. we've in the past and right , there's a and you are right, there's a direct correlation between economic growth rates of economic growth and rates of migration . and of it's migration. and of course, it's quite self—correcting. if an economy in decline, people economy is in decline, people leave the economic migrants , a

leave the economic migrants, a few come and more leave , which few come and more leave, which could the next of years could happen the next of years if we if we're to believe projections about the economy. but i take your point about economic growth and paying pensions and the population. there is a flipside , which is there is a flipside, which is that more numbers impacts school . the nhs housing, it's infrastructure. we're talking people that are working in the nhs that the problem that we've got with nurse retention at the moment you know we've lost a lot of people have brexit and lots of people have brexit and lots of people have left and we didn't replace those people . we didn't replace those people. we are short of people to actually do those jobs. i it's not really an either all we're talking about people that are part of the public service that we're trying to build. so yeah , yeah. trying to build. so yeah, yeah. i mean, i think that's that's a fair point. this is a dilemma for the government isn't it now? well, is anthony talks well, here is anthony talks about preference services but you just as easily argue you could just as easily argue that access has caused pressure on services . you said housing is on services. you said housing is . another big example. you know, lots of people would argue that

i a supply and i say this is a supply and demand crisis housing where demand crisis in housing where we've too many people have we've got too many people have come in too quickly. 6 million people ten yeah, yeah people in ten years. yeah, yeah i mean, something like a million visas in 2021, i can visas granted in 2021, i can come housing come back about the housing problem. really and problem. it's not really and demand it's about, you demand issue. it's about, you know, how much money costs know when central banks all over the world are going know you know governments can borrow for 0.1. what happens is you get all those people going out they're hey i'll buy ten houses so you know the rapid expansion in house price is because money was made freely available. not really so much to do with the shortage of housing. you know, these are policy decisions. if want more houses, we build them . if we never do build them. everyone talks building them. everyone talks, building them. and never happens. we never and it never happens. we never anywhere near enough. well, okay, compared okay, so too many compared to the houses we. so you the number of houses we. so you take post—war you know you take the post—war you know you know we, built a huge number of houses. know we, built a huge number of houses . this was just that houses. this was just that housing used to be built by then by the government. you know, the

government local authorities used the house used to be the largest house builder in the country building not one in two houses. but what happened? so, as you said , like happened? so, as you said, like history that really crazy but actually we've never had the facts before and had we like empty rhetoric . well, what empty rhetoric. well, what happened was obviously , you happened was obviously, you know, late eighties when they sold off the council housing that was never replaced and that used to be then it was all thatcher's fault. well she began that process and the reason why she did it because she she did it was because she didn't like having working class people places like people in places like westminster you know voting so that that's not the reason because she came from a pretty lower class background herself she grocers door she she was a grocers door she didn't have some vendetta against it wasn't a against working it wasn't a vendetta against working class people. working people. it was because working people. it was because working people social housing voted , people in social housing voted, labour and actually there was a massive court case, dame porter left the country. so she was the chance to own their own choice. people had the chance to own their own it's an their own house. it's an aspirational yeah, but,

aspirational thing. yeah, but, but the aside, you but the okay and the aside, you know consequence know the secondary consequence it was was that she was actually this kind of gerrymandering you went to court, you know, there was a surge. so people in social would buy their property, sell it , move somewhere else, and it, move somewhere else, and then class people would then middle class people would come basically by come in. well, basically by breaking that social housing breaking up that social housing thing, she felt that she was breaking labour heartlands essentially . and, you know, essentially. and, you know, i can't of any i can't think of any reason why she would have said, i why don't we replace this social housing. it's a really point. but it came back to her motivation. i mean i'll take on board what you said many will agree then didn't she liberate the working class in liberate. the working class in this country didn't the this country and didn't the middle massively expand as middle class massively expand as a result . yeah, look, i don't a result. yeah, look, i don't want to i don't want to everything margaret everything here. margaret thatcher you know what thatcher it was no you know what happened from from the to the modern a trend you know modern day was a trend you know in certainly seen some in she's certainly seen some growth year when we talk about economic and she certainly achieved that had see what achieved that we had no see what you about economic that

you want about economic that point i mean there's a benefit for the money came from and i think you raise a really good point with income social point with the income social housing stock north sea oil not much was invested i mean the norwegians have got their oleo fund haven't they. which is this oil massive pension the oil fund, a massive pension the country from oil profits. we didn't do that and we didn't invest income from selling council tax and importantly as well local local authorities were funded by the properties that they built. so they built a house. people lived in it. that was their income that's where their money came from. when forced to sell their you know, they don't have that income and you know, that's why we you know, the only reason overall it was good there wasn't that for working class people to be able to i don't know. you know, i've don't have a problem that it was very much about leading was about lifting people up the issue is each you issue the issue is each time you sell building, know, sell one building, you know, bingo think you're so bingo. and i think you're so right. i think that's right. and i think that's a fascinating let's move fascinating debate. let's move on to today's telegraph. on now to today's telegraph. nick have you got for us try and

make it that good the way can you. well it won't be that long but they've got to assume that my fears for of women and of course this follows the horrible murder of zahra this horrific murder of zahra this horrific murder as she was 35 murdered by this guy mcsweeney jordan mcsweeney horrific . so of mcsweeney horrific. so of course, sue and i was talking about being tough on crime so and he has this quite strange well to me quite strange face he says most emotional says my most emotional motivation is his wife and daughters . i motivation is his wife and daughters. i don't motivation is his wife and daughters . i don't know if you daughters. i don't know if you need motivation to be tough on need a motivation to be tough on crime, you know , most people crime, but you know, most people just in just walk down the street in london. but i if you if you're sunak you always going round sunak and you always going round and you and tinted cars and stuff you might crime but but might not see crime but but yeah, fair enough. yeah, that's fair enough. he always about family. always talks about his family. i understand does that's understand he does that. that's perfectly it is perfectly fine. and it is unsafe. hopefully will unsafe. so hopefully he will be tough crime they'll tough on crime and they'll actually do something about it. i'm will actually i'm not sure what will actually be buti i'm not sure what will actually be but i look forward. be done, but i look forward. i think one of the key issues in this that guy suffering this is that this guy suffering from a mental health condition and there's a difference between sort of crime with somebody who

goes , this is the way that i'm goes, this is the way that i'm going to live. i'm going go going to live. i'm going to go and this. and somebody that and do this. and somebody that has a mental health condition, having episode. yeah, i mean having an episode. yeah, i mean , it's just much more difficult to date and to contain the shocking about it though was he was free on licence from a sentence for criminal damage , sentence for criminal damage, racially aggravated harassment and of a knife in and unauthorised of a knife in prison. so he was already there's only six days where, you know criminal, know, there were criminal, but then are out then they just somehow are out and they managed they re—offend in is murder . yeah i mean in case is murder. yeah i mean it's , you know, it's what can it's, you know, it's what can you say awful for you know for anyone involved or you know that that you know knew this woman it's one of those things where you know at the end of the day with the offending that he had on his record you know could anybody predict that this guy would go out and actually murder somebody you know criminal is existing staying on crime . i existing staying on crime. i need a couple of seconds to this

before the break for anthony the times i think it's the met chief police wants to it easier to sack ineffective police officers it's a good move and yeah you know i knew nothing about this until i read a couple of one ago and essentially so if you take the metropolitan police force example there's 3000 metropolitan police officers who were unable to go on shifts and do their jobs. were unable to go on shifts and do their jobs . you know, we're do their jobs. you know, we're talking about sort of between ten and 20% of the available workforce and for reasons of ill health or just simple non—performance , we're not non—performance, we're not talking about people are suspended , you know , you know, suspended, you know, you know, for other for other kinds of reasons. and it's a tricky one, really because in every other area of employment kind of say, well, you know, we wish, you know, we should look after people, we should make that , you people, we should make that, you know, that there is a duty of

care and their employment rights. so are respected, but i don't know. it feels like in such a large that it's really easy for this to be exploited. and i he's probably right i do question how so many people could be out of action. and if you're in the police. it's you know you know, expected to be fit. i think he i think you're right. anthony it also begs the question, would that happen ? the question, would that happen? the private sector, very private sector, a very interesting conversation in which got no doubt we'll which i've got no doubt we'll continue. our continue. that's it for our analysis of saturday's headlines . many more stories coming up . . many more stories coming up. the break . we'll be delving the break. we'll be delving behind the front pages, getting our teeth into among other things, rinaldo , steve, shortly .

i'm mark dolan. this is headline is your first look at tomorrow's

papers tonight in the company of the brilliantly anthony ayton he's joined us tonight for the first time and of course headliners legend headline is icon the one and only nick dixon , a man whose reputation precedes , as does his half sats, precedes, as does his half sats, mirror. now manchester united's glory days had gone and now its star player could be to nick. yep. cristiano ronaldo has done a bombshell interview on an inferior channel that we usually beat , but inferior channel that we usually beat, but this has done very well and it was a fascinating interview. basically, he came across to me pretty well as a lifelong united fan, some of the fans will not have liked it, but i thought came across well. i thought he came across well. but things you but he said some things you never to keep your job never going to keep your job when said he has when he say he said he has respect the manager respect for the manager everything doesn't everything how he doesn't respect respect him respect me i don't respect him and this was all with this and this was all to do with this thing when all to do with. thing of when all to do with. but part of it was ten. but a large part of it was ten. how said, won't bring you on how i said, i won't bring you on it 3 minutes in the it with 3 minutes left in the game man because it's game versus man because it's disrespectful. then he asked him to 3 minutes left in

to on with 3 minutes left in a game versus tottenham and i was like, well what about? like, well, well what about? so we also said that we walked off. he also said that the facilities haven't been upgraded since his time there on the ferguson which is true the rocks ferguson which is true he the the he also said the glazer the owners glazers care owners the glazers don't care about about about football care about marketing he said some quite marketing and he said some quite movie family. it movie stuff about his family. it was interview the cynical pov was a interview the cynical pov as was it because the as he was doing it because the world wants to world cup's up, he wants to shine world and get shine in the world cup and get transfer obviously you transfer and obviously after you said respect said you don't respect the manager, go manager, you can't possibly go back. what's going to back. so that's what's going to happen. united and now going to terminate there's terminate contract and there's going legal battle for going to be a legal battle for who money basically who pays what money basically because 60 million because it might be 60 million that yeah that you might lose. yeah mean are team are you in team united team ronaldo anthony i i'm i'm in team united i think for any normal balanced they could find a way end that relationship and sort of leave with the you know the legacy intact and he failed to do that and i think i watched the interview and there were points in the interview where he spoke about himself in the third person i couldn't help see the single crucifix dangling from

his right and the whole tone . his right and the whole tone. the interview was obsequious . i the interview was obsequious. i think he's got so used to living within that bubble of i am the greatest i will be the greatest and you know he's a fantastic player even now but he's not the greatest. and the reason he's on the bench is for footballing reasons. and you know, i'm a liverpool but i can see what hawk is doing and i think he's got right to bench him and. you know, i just think he's dealt with the fact he doesn't fit into ten hearts fans. but to the other side, roy keane was dealt with badly he as with very badly when he left, as was ferdinand. there does was rio ferdinand. there does seem a problem when you seem to be a problem when you have these legend. of course they and big they have high status and big egos, also given egos, but they've also given a lot why can't the lot to the club. why can't the club with them club communicate with them better better terms? better and end on better terms? it seem hard. i it doesn't seem that hard. can i ask a fan and i, a couple ask you as a fan and i, a couple of united games and i seeing from both fernando from both him and fernando there's so you know there'd there's just so you know there'd be a passage and be a passage of play and then throw disgust throw his arms up in disgust and. i felt that he made the other players around smaller other players around him smaller and.he

other players around him smaller and. he them less confident and. he made them less confident with constant. it's with his constant. it's annoying. i didn't like that. annoying. so i didn't like that. stephanie said he stephanie and he's even said he regretted pitch regretted leaving the pitch versus he did. versus tottenham, but he did. the that the the flip side it is that the younger players haven't to an elbow they're listening elbow and they're not listening to of don't to him and they sort of don't like was like sure you've the like it was like sure you've the best player arguably of all time you want to copy what he's doing. do something else doing. let's do something else to say. and players have to say. and some players have like single out as like darlow who he single out as one professional one of the great professional players. to players. surely you want to listen if. he's in listen to an elder if. he's in your and watch him. yeah, your club and watch him. yeah, but then if you spoke to ten or you spoke to the coaching they might know sancho's been might say you know sancho's been a fantastic professional you know i mean he had a difficult transition over to united but dortmund he was incredible you know can't believe that he's know i can't believe that he's sitting there wads of chocolate cake. it doesn't it doesn't really sound or ring to me. i just realised with the general view he's not a football it's just all noise to them . i like just all noise to them. i like to, it's like a football podcast . where's alan brazil ? today's . where's alan brazil? today's daily star and let's talk about legwork . casey anthony , did you

legwork. casey anthony, did you ask me this just because i'm bald and you just come ? i don't bald and you just come? i don't think you're bald. i think i volunteered to have like , smooth volunteered to have like, smooth pate. that's right. i've done knighted my hair. you're lucky because you cut all your hair off . it suits you. the issue for off. it suits you. the issue for some men is you don't know the shape of your head what it's going to look until until after you've done that you've got good shape. oh, thank you. you're you're more bruce willis you're you're more bruce willis than we than william hague. i think we should and to should stick to that. and to forget star headline. i forget this star headline. i mean, it's actually i mean, it's hilarious. i look at it and it's is here we go, we go , we go. and is here we go, we go, we go. and essentially the saying that the england world cup stars will be waxing their legs during this world in order to cope with world cup in order to cope with the heat . i'm world cup in order to cope with the heat. i'm not world cup in order to cope with the heat . i'm not sure it world cup in order to cope with the heat. i'm not sure it makes i'm not sure it makes that much difference for the edge that one position. yeah but that doesn't marginal games that has cooling down or something but most them have got shaved legs anyway you know when you see them they tell you they shave that. but i know

as a northern man i'm completely against it. then on the against it. then again on the flip of paul scholes flip side of that, paul scholes used to get so hot. he couldn't play. maybe what we need play. so maybe is what we need to to in qatar. to do to survive in qatar. i don't that's it. don't know. yeah, that's it. well, stay that theme well, let's stay that theme because star because in saturday's daily star if putting certain if you like putting in certain goals there's . more bad at goals there's. more bad news at the cup. nick yeah, the world cup. nick yeah, england fans face seven years in prison. defy cup prison. if defy world cup bonking banning qatar this is the daily star inevitable from that language but yes they're saying if you're in a husband and wife team. it's perfectly allowed, not if it's sex outside marriage. and you know, this is the part i respect. like i say, i don't approve of the whole the way it's been the stadium, the people building stadiums, the deaths horrific when deaths obviously horrific when it comes to this, this is actually i mean, i'm not sure if we did this, but our society would wouldn't would be better, wouldn't it? i mean, this me you've mean, look, this is me you've propagandised my christian propagandised for my christian theocracy something propagandised for my christian th

don't mind this. well, anthony, are to go to another country are we to go to another country and dictate to them about the rules that we're rules of that land? we're england been doing it for centuries. people know know when the doesn't understand the waiter doesn't understand what we're saying. we just get louder . what we're saying. we just get louder. seems be what we're saying. we just get louder . seems be the way. louder. it seems to be the way. sadly i think with this . i mean, sadly i think with this. i mean, who's enforcing it at the end of the day? how is this actually being enforced? are people just looking bits of the statute book and saying , looking bits of the statute book and saying, if this looking bits of the statute book and saying , if this is looking bits of the statute book and saying, if this is known that you'll doing this know , that you'll doing this know, then we're going to do something about it because presumably there's only two witnesses to there's only two witnesses to the event unless . you know, it's the event unless. you know, it's happening in public and both sides be equally guilty and just much. they have people in the hotel rooms checking. they stand there and going in and that's job 24 hours a day. they just the one guy does a night shift and they just kind they presume they can't be responsible for. yeah, yeah. they're in their 20 plus 40 that episode of plus and 40 in that episode of 50,000. ben's the shagging 50,000. and ben's the shagging and at one point he goes up the

ladder on the outside of the room. it's like that with perhaps i bet you're not even joking. there people that will be monitoring the behaviour of i was joking but i've got no idea i just said it but i like the of a guy just monitoring 24 seven another there in night another guy there in the night it do think it's it would do you think it's beyond realm of possibility beyond the realm of possibility either know think either i just you know think it's of those things that either i just you know think it's know: those things that either i just you know think it's know when; things that either i just you know think it's know whene thinglike at you know when don't like somebody and looking for a reason to arrest somebody as being a troublemaker you know there's a whole bunch of rules that can pull out. but as that they can pull out. but as in as with most places, i think that i don't that in qatar nobody's having sex of marriage and on that bombshell let's do two into if we can saturday's telegraph with a story on how to commit crimes get away with them. the trick is to be the leader of an oil rich middle eastern nation. antony oh so this is the story of joe biden having a apparently grown

immunity from prosecution to mohammed bin salman for the murder of . jamal khashoggi and murder of. jamal khashoggi and i the way this has been presented doesn't really fit with my understanding of how international law and, diplomatic relations occur . so diplomatic relations occur. so i'm bin salman was the head of state at the time a murder took place and what are saying is that because he was the head state he should be fixed with liability for you know he should be found of this murder but you know way international relations work you if putin was to give to abroad to meet with other international nobody is going to try and arrest him and nobody's going to try and arrest barrack for various drone attacks that have killed people in other countries by violating their laws in ways which would be murder and. there's a kind of an

understood ending that if people go around arresting head of states, then you as a head of states, then you as a head of state are liable to be arrested . and then there's also this general understanding of sovereign immunity. so you while you're acting as a head of state, you're not going to be found guilty of crimes. so i'm i'm about the way this story has been presented. i don't it's something that joe biden's done. it's the justice department in america making it illegal finding interesting interesting analysis last but least for this part saturday's times. analysis last but least for this part saturday's times . the youth part saturday's times. the youth in france have gone to laissez faire. it's now laissez faire it nick well yeah you ask me to the story quickly but it's a think piece about french so it's i'll try and do it quickly but yes it's basically that there's an epidemic of idleness in france. many english people would say that was even so. that already was even more so. and of saying it's a and they're of saying it's a kind of it's almost kind of a commune. ask michel, but as kind of ennui as i've said, they're

saying that young people not bothering anything they'd bothering doing anything they'd , rather home. they'd , rather be at home. they'd rather be on sofa than rather be on the sofa than working and. they cite the things like the terror attacks and yellow vest protests and the yellow vest protests because. it's come from a socialist think tank, which is partly against the partly why they're against the yellow of yellow vests, but it's a kind of who it is . culture, who knows what it is. culture, low testosterone problems, buying a house. there could be any things. small any of things. and the small matter shutting young people matter of shutting young people indoors for two a half years indoors for two and a half years didn't that didn't help. and that is mentioned well. yeah , yes. mentioned as well. so yeah, yes. basically, have basically, french people have given young people, given up on young people, especially pandemic is normalised. doing nothing has in fact not just that it's rewarded rewarded, legitimised it . rewarded, it legitimised it. you're a good person if you stay home not quite home and nothing it's not quite messaging is no no also messaging is no no but it also lowers boredom thresholds think probably most fridays to the pandemic was looking for something to do i needed a plan and then slowly it was like that only had to be a box set. and then slowly it was like that only had to be a box set . viable only had to be a box set. viable books that got me through the weekends. yeah, even great woody allen film . think you're quite allen film. think you're quite a fan, nick? well yeah well

previously not the not the recent woody allen but the oeuvre but but he's one of the, you know love him or hate him, one of the most prolific film makers of all time , much a movie makers of all time, much a movie a year. and in the pandemic was stopped from making films that i quite like just staying at home doing actually so even doing nothing actually so even like really prolific like really really prolific people have got the kind of lockdown bug it seems have lockdown bug it seems to have reached france know you reached france i know once you allow they realise allow people that they realise they it but it's actually they like it but it's actually we like all dread doing we all like it all dread doing things but but when do the things but but when you do the movie just think myself movie i just think of myself but when them it's when you actually do them it's better yeah. to better you ultimately. yeah. to write well look that's it for part up after the part two coming up after the break, dames causing drama drama in the nhs and drama at twitter hq . you see you shortly .

i'm all dolan and this is headuneis i'm all dolan and this is headline is your first look at tomorrow's papers in the company of the excellent comedians anthony ayton and nick dixon saturdays. got you now with the us giving its best effort , us giving its best effort, convince us what comes out of its labs and how safe . good luck its labs and how safe. good luck with that today. thank thanks very much. nothing to see here. no so. so this story is sensitive round us declaration that lab meat is to eat. yeah, it's called cultivar eight. it meets and does a company called upside foods if done a chicken sandwich. yeah and know all of basically all of the meat is grown from cells that have been taken from chicken but obviously they're not part of an animal. so just thinking about the environmental impact, so just thinking about the environmental impact , there's environmental impact, there's obviously don't have all of the land and water usage and know the c02

land and water usage and know the co2 aspect of it. and it does raises an interesting question for me because i kind of think, well, if it's been grown from cells and no animals suffered environmental impact can , you eat that chicken and can, you eat that chicken and still call yourself a vegan potential chilli. that's what i'm thinking. yeah. if it's not lived. it's not done . well, lived. it's not done. well, yeah.i lived. it's not done. well, yeah. i think, you know, vegans are known for their lazy attitude, so i think they'll be fine with. that's one of my fine with. it that's one of my deadpan my concern deadpan jokes, my concern because will all forced to because it will all forced to swallow gates synthetic swallow bill gates is synthetic meat. this is this is meat. this is where this is going. gates to make meat synthetic. average person's synthetic. the average person's going banned from eating going to be banned from eating meat. they'll meat meat. as we know they'll be meat taxes. want us to eat the taxes. they want us to eat the bugs, happy then it'll be bugs, be happy and then it'll be not synthetic meat not even but we synthetic meat and where this is all going we don't it's safe. don't even know if it's safe. well, still farmers. i got well, i'm still farmers. i got so many questions by well unless but what know eating but what we know for eating it will like horse what will it be like horse meat. what be accident. yeah, be eating it by accident. yeah, but already synthetic. but it means already synthetic. i mean, you remember scandal a few ago the few years ago about, the meatballs. did dna meatballs. and when they did dna analysis it, they found analysis on it, they found that there of miqbel there was parts of this miqbel had europe. this had been all over europe. this is we still free

is when we still had free movement so you could movement of goods. so you could get this plane from over here, a bit air from over there and bit of air from over there and make a delicious make it into a delicious confection. you welcome gates as synthetic meat. what's got to do with bill gates? well, he's he's he's proposed this. he's one of the biggest in the global scientific movement. i mean, he's he's become well known promoting this new synthetic i just saw. i can't accept bill gates as the bogeyman thing . is gates as the bogeyman thing. is he is he is moving to administer an alternative me it's fake me. yeah but there's just any solution. it's a multi bizarre match. it's a sea billion pound industry that is being kind invested in all over the globe , invested in all over the globe, lots of different companies. and it's like there's only one company, there's , you know, company, there's, you know, involved in mobile phone . bill involved in mobile phone. bill gates is he's a player and he's got a lot of money but, you know, there's lots of companies are doing this this kind stuff. so, i mean, would you eat lab grown steak and do you know what i mean? the reality is if i was

given a that was not grown organically. you know you know. yeah well grass—fed or if i if i was shown video of how the chicken had lived before being given a chicken sandwich . my given a chicken sandwich. my view that differently so side by side lab or you know a chicken that's lived in a darkened box you know with the you you know clawed of its cousin on its head because there's no room to move you know there's not much in it. that's a really interesting and fair saturday's now and fair point saturday's now and drama at hq continues. fair point saturday's now and drama at hq continues . what's drama at hq continues. what's happened this time nick well twitter bar stuff from offices and all entry passes amid fears and all entry passes amid fears and what this is we've seen these activists at twitter has come in he's shaken up the company . come in he's shaken up the company. he's come in he's shaken up the company . he's got come in he's shaken up the company. he's got rid of a lot of the robot. them have gone and no one's noticed . well, yeah, no one's noticed. well, yeah, exactly. i mean, he even said he even going to have even said you're going to have to hours and to work longer hours and immediately. of people to work longer hours and immewhich y. of people to work longer hours and immewhich is of people to work longer hours and immewhich is great)eople quit, which is a great self—selecting of self—selecting way of the laziest getting rid of

laziest people getting rid of themselves just on the threat of doing longer hours. but because half are activists, half of them are activists, they're now having to actually shut can saying how shut down. you can saying how many don't have your many you don't have to roll your eyes minute now all having eyes in a minute now all having to worried they're going to sabotage actual company because if you've got a lot of activist staff that you know they've been posting things on twitter they're the they're actively against the boss publicly. so imagine what they'll in they've become they'll do in so they've become so concerned now can't them so concerned now can't let them back although . there was a back in although. there was a funny finally musk funny thing where finally musk had can you had to recontact to say can you let us in? because we don't know how get inside. i've. how to get inside. yeah, i've. what do about ? this. what do you think about? this. oh, not this nonsense oh, let's just not this nonsense before musk basically overpaid twitter and twitter's losing £1,000,000,000 a year. twitter and twitter's losing £1,000,000,000 a year . £3 £1,000,000,000 a year. £3 million a day, and that is the last purchase tech where anybody's going to pay stupid money. and it's when you look across the whole tech industry, seeing deliveroo pulling out of australia, they weren't pulling out of any countries, you know, a few weeks ago . the change in a few weeks ago. the change in the cost of money has brought about a change in how all of

these companies are going to operate. so actually you know he's you're not wrong to the extent a lot of tech companies are going be people left are going to be people left right because half of right and centre because half of them money. them losing money. twitter really made including really never made open including facebook big layoffs facebook have seen big layoffs as well. yeah, google done as well. yeah, google have done it you know it's you know that that's that's going par that's that's going to be par for thing that is for the course the thing that is interesting the problem for the course the thing that is interestinhe's the problem for the course the thing that is interestinhe's going 1e problem for the course the thing that is interestinhe's going to problem for the course the thing that is interestinhe's going to haveem for the course the thing that is interestinhe's going to have is| that that he's going to have is that that he's going to have is that he's caught two stools so twitter makes its money by you know these big advertisers but at the same time those advertisers want to that they're putting their money into something that is seen to be decent and not you know a hate mongering kind of because free speech hate mongering now. well no not this problem is pressure groups that campaigning for companies to leave twitter not come back to that point. well yeah go for okay so when you have a situation like say take brexit for example when had the and this is this on both sides i

to for somebody to send tweet threatening to rape a politician is hatemonger. i think it's actually more than that i think terrorism i think most could agree with . yeah, i know but but agree with. yeah, i know but but that's what i'm saying. if you don't have any protections what twitter he's he's been twitter which he's he's been clear he he just he just clear he does he just he just wants free with the extremes and actual incitement. so this time already covered in the first amendment anyway. well, he will stick that. how's he going amendment anyway. well, he will sti do that. how's he going amendment anyway. well, he will sti do thatthat. how's he going amendment anyway. well, he will sti do thatthat. isackede going amendment anyway. well, he will sti do thatthat. isacked half ng amendment anyway. well, he will sti do thatthat. isacked half the to do that when sacked half the people actually he's people that actually that he's made doing up at made he's doing a shake up at the start that's i think that's separate from the issue censorship and free speech. this would an would would be like an example would be accounts of the be restoring the accounts of the journalist berenson was journalist alex berenson it was permanently by twitter permanently suspended by twitter simply publishing official simply for publishing official government data about covid vaccines . yeah oh could you vaccines. yeah oh you could you could say took twitter to court and had to be reinstated. you one. musk wants one. yeah. yeah. musk wants people to be able to stay people that to be able to stay on without to go to on the platform without to go to court stay reinstate court to stay or reinstate former president of united former president of the united states. that, states. when you've got that, you've you've you've putin on there. you've got you know, got kinds of people, you know, despotic it's despotic leaders of trump. it's completely absurd well, think

completely absurd well, i think specifically it's not because actually they had, you know, trump should be banned from. do you think trump should be banned from twitter? i think i think the band that he undertook was absolutely correct because he used incite violence so used that to incite violence so it's sort of so you know do you accept say do you not accept that a bunch of people went with guns actually and actually try you for that despotic leaders on facebook to talk about jan six so obviously he's going to say or more recently well recently they went round to the to nancy pelosi's house with a hammer and that trump's fault for being that was trump's fault for being on twitter. i kept coming he's sorry that's what he foments that's just laughable. i'm addicted to mining happen. that never did happen. you hang yourself in the argument cause it's so absurd. no . the only it's so absurd. oh, no. the only hanging was the people hanging was. was the people going the going with the police on the hangman. kinds of hangman. can i have all kinds of terrorists of terrorists and all kinds of despotic leaders? trump can't be on there because like on there because you don't like his that. his politics. no, it's not that. i don't like his policies. i really on twitter. i don't

really go on twitter. i don't think not thing, my think know it's not my thing, my is have a set is that they have a set rules they've got as best they they've got to try as best they he had god knows how many well the people behind that are luckily may be to luckily now so he may be able to come i did actually come back on but i did actually read entire transcript. so read the entire transcript. so i'm not i've i'm not just talking not i've read the entire of the first meeting elon musk and meeting between elon musk and his actually very his staff. it's actually very exciting. new exciting. he's trying to do new things it to be things that he wants it to be a payment platform. bring payment platform. he to bring youtube people monetise youtube people on to monetise videos on. so has a lot videos and so on. so has a lot of interesting going to of very interesting going to just if it fails just go broke it's if it fails it'll broke did very it'll go broke but he did very well tesla done with his well tesla he's done with his companies so if anyone do it companies so if anyone can do it i think can be, let's say, i think musk can be, let's say, an interesting debate. headliners church headliners is a broad church of opinion, we've opinion, as we've just demonstrated more demonstrated great debate. more of gents . saturday's of that phase, gents. saturday's telegraph a food so posh telegraph now on a food so posh it you sound like member it makes you sound like a member . the aristocracy has been bannedin . the aristocracy has been banned in royal residences. anthony okay. well, i mean, pretty much you pretty much nailed the story. pretty much you pretty much nailed the story . now, pretty much you pretty much nailed the story. now, i don't know whether i should repeat what said, but i could what you just said, but i could do it in a different voice. no, i don't want to do that. i think i. well, no, all i'm going to say , know, obviously

say is, you know, obviously they've foie gras. yeah they've banned foie gras. yeah and for some people, if you think wellington enthusiast who wants to do it absolutely correctly that's going to be problematic because you are supposed to have a layer of foie , you know, with the ham and then the pastry . i , you know, with the ham and then the pastry. i mean it's one, you know how foie gras is made . it's one, you know how foie gras is made. it's one of one, you know how foie gras is made . it's one of those things made. it's one of those things that you think, oh , oh, that's that you think, oh, oh, that's awful . and it just i don't know. awful. and it just i don't know. for me, it's almost like it's it becomes one of those things where it's just one of one of many awful things in the world, you know, at the end of the day, yes you know, you can get rid of it, but does that mean he's still going to go for something ? what about how well ? what about it? how well treated and you treated all pigs. yeah. and you mentioned earlier, mentioned chickens earlier, briefly do you know i'm not how is how is foie gras made then? well, basically what they do is they force feed i'm not going to do the i'm not going to the hand. i'm not going to do the gesture that i'm told is willing to do that. so you nick's going

to do that. so you nick's going to actit to do that. so you nick's going to act it out, actually , it's to act it out, actually, it's about force feeding the funnel. yeah. so the liver. i did read that they massaged neck as well. yeah, i read a very long about why it can actually be ethical , why it can actually be ethical, but remember what the but i can't remember what the conclusion long. conclusion was going to so long. but mean suppose the but yeah, i mean i suppose the king what he wants. the king can do what he wants. the book and palace. but do worry that is going to get that charles is going to get involved. to say involved. various. i want to say whatever minor whatever you call them minor causes where he could causes like this where he could like king and doing important king. view would be king. i mean my view would be the that does sound like an awful practise and since found awful practise and since i found out it was made. out that's how it was made. i mean, never cut down but mean, i've never cut down but think, oh, he's like this massively . you know, he ran the massively. you know, he ran the was was obviously heavily involved in the estate, involved in the in the estate, you farming animal you know, farming animal husbandry is a big thing of his . so why wouldn't he have an interest why would you say no? that's the that's right and he's on the right the organic right side of the organic argument he's been argument is nate he's been talking many talking about that for many years. now they years. they laugh but now they take him seriously. sats, metro and i don't know what level we're supposed to be operating on men dressing as women is

on but men dressing as women is apparently transphobic. nick, i need help this . yeah, need some help with this. yeah, this guest claims this is a gmb guest claims pantomime dames could be transphobic , should be transphobic, should be cancelled. this is gifty . cancelled. this is gifty. enright. not gifty. surprisingly but this is a she made an interesting claim, said i'm all for tradition . but the danger interesting claim, said i'm all for t|tradition but the danger interesting claim, said i'm all for t|tradition is|t the danger interesting claim, said i'm all for t|tradition is ifthe danger interesting claim, said i'm all for t|tradition is if it's danger interesting claim, said i'm all for t|tradition is if it's notger with tradition is if it's not and modernised. read that's and modernised. i read that's kind of the point. the tradition is it's not really i mean that's like those people who say i'm in favour speech but and favour of free speech but and then huge list of they're then a huge list of why they're absolutely just it absolutely nuts. so it's just it was she went on was quite and then she went on to about it's to say the thing about it's potentially transphobic be potentially transphobic to be a pants obviously absurd pants on dame obviously absurd is level you kind is a kind of low level you kind of us into talking about of trap us into talking about and then we'll say oh tv you just the whole time. and then we'll say oh tv you juzit the whole time. and then we'll say oh tv you juzit kind the whole time. and then we'll say oh tv you juzit kind of the whole time. and then we'll say oh tv you juzit kind of lowthe whole time. and then we'll say oh tv you juzit kind of low levelhole time. is it kind of low level depressing dirge wokeness and depressing dirge of wokeness and it's not that, it's just obviously is not that, but it's just vaguely annoying and it also and stupid. and it also demonstrates the sort of demonstrates that the sort of woke has truck with woke culture has no truck with fun which what paris is fun which is what paris is without the cry pandemic. without the cry of a pandemic. sorry only they know the crime of panto is rubbish. i mean, what kind of idiot child look behind it is hugely entertained

by that? i think me does it really . no. i mean i think it's really. no. i mean i think it's strange one because the reason, you know , is anybody really you know, is anybody really interested in this story? i mean, i don't think there's that many people that feel offended by pantomime dames. many people that feel offended by pantomime dames . and from by pantomime dames. and from what you're saying you don't feel like this is a story that you would want to talk about you feel trapped into talking about the stories the exact phrase use so really what we're talking is some people making a big deal out of something is only really relevant to it . to a tiny relevant to it. to a tiny minority of people . yeah, but minority of people. yeah, but it's still annoying that she said it was so then you sort of having to address it, but you don't to address it. so my job yeah. i don't know since yeah. i mean, i don't know since you don't complain about it, know, to be here. know, you choose to be here. well, going to well, listen what we're going to do nick dickson into do is bully nick dickson into discussing more stories. discussing a lot more stories. he straight he doesn't like. straight after the . yes. we've got to the break. yes. we've got to lots in part four including bad behaviour banksy sneering assault bay and victory for the

gamers surely.

welcome back to headliners your first look at tomorrow's papers tonight the company of the brilliant comedians anthony ayton and nick dixon , saturday's ayton and nick dixon, saturday's times and this one is about niche subculture . here's niche subculture. here's something, nick, that i guess you're quite keen on. how dare you? this is about i was you? yeah, this is about i was playing video games. it's harmless most teens. harmless fun for most teens. it's claiming in this article . it's claiming in this article. although one problem video although one problem is video games. listening games. i was listening a feminist andrew feminist thinker called andrew tate and he made a good point. he said that you get nothing from video again the only problem video games you problem is video games you invest that time and course invest that time and of course it's fun interesting it's fun and interesting but what out of it what you actually get out of it in world if you're not in the real world if you're not a streamer making money a twitch streamer making money it build up your it you sort of build up your avatar fake versus avatar in the fake world versus you get behind it to be you know you get behind it to be what i thought was an

interesting point but this is about not necessarily about how it's not necessarily going problems going to cause health problems to spend time to just spend a lot of time playing but the playing video games. but the only study is only problem this study is it was so kids was self—reporting. so kids are spending playing spending less time playing video games. but games. yeah, i'm fine, but teenagers never lie. would they? especially grown up. and especially to a grown up. and they different they might have a different definition of mental, but they're saying in a small percentage cases, does percentage of cases, it does seem indicate is some seem to indicate there is some link, it's more that those link, but it's more that those people sort of people are perhaps some sort of self—medicating games and they would mental would have had mental health problems anyway. and it's claiming that the rest don't though don't know. though would say i don't know. i think in whatever but presumably all self—reporting even if you are not playing a video game and you're well, is the you're saying, well, this is the state my mental health, it state of my mental health, so it kind of controls out the it makes the whole thing pointless . well it doesn't really because you're doing is you're assuming that there's just as many people that there's just as many people that would lie who don't video games that live they games as people that live they lie. i'm just saying that most of assessment you know if you of assessment so you know if you say do you have mental problems and go i suppose if you and they go no i suppose if you have body. and then you have every body. and then you were trying make an assessment of whether that plants of whether people that plants

and you know, then and the like, you know, then then you'll get you know, if people in group lie just as much as people in another, then it is going to get rid of that, that problem. but the thing that i thought was interesting about it, i, i've never liked video games. play. to me, games. i don't play. to me, they're waste time . but they're a waste of time. but what i've noticed, having gone to people that to university with people that do a of people do is that a lot of the people end being really, really good end up being really, really good at software and end up going, you know, the people that when they've a problem they will they've got a problem they will boringly go round and round in circle have solved do circle until they have solved do play circle until they have solved do play games and it's of the play video games and it's of the language it makes people language and it makes people digital natives and more able to do what social. i mean my 17 year old son is online with mates when he's gaming. yeah plus some of these games are complex problem solving. yeah. so, so i guess it's not all bad. it's always worth looking at things in 360 chaps back to little catch phrase to into before we go and saturdays anthony can you guess what banksy has been up to this week.

yeah this story is in relation to banksy out a tweet urging shoplift to go and steal clothes from a company called guess and it was all part of a copyright round they bought brought out a range of clothing which is featured some of his and they put out some of his in the window and got a picture here well and of course banksy is famous for those secretive paintings done on on buildings in the dead of night. and i mean i don't the legal ins and outs of it i mean, i read elsewhere that the company lost a case to taguchi where there had been a copyright infringement and in other systems banksy had lost . i other systems banksy had lost. i mean, just generally i think if you produce a bit of art, it ought to belong to you people should respect that it sounds a bit cheeky to me that you think well part i don't like is kind

of bourgeois bohemian ism a bit of bourgeois bohemian ism a bit of banksy saying, oh, go and steal. and yet you know, won't get trouble those people get in trouble if those people get in trouble if those people get he's not part get arrested and. he's not part of shop so like the of the shop, so i don't like the idea saying, just go out idea of him saying, just go out and shoplift, because it's kind of weird also i don't like of weird but i also i don't like his lately because sort of his art lately because sort of gone cringe low gone into sort of cringe low satire of level of satire of the level of sort of led kind of vibe, but led by donkeys kind of vibe, but on the flip side, i do hate the idea stealing your he's idea of stealing your art. he's right that. should right about that. why should they his art without they just use his art without consulting is mad. consulting him? that is mad. people me. it to people do it with me. is it to with take the out of with they take the out of artists thinking artists all the time thinking you that so i am you can just that stuff so i am against that but he should sue them rather than encourage his anonymity so you know anonymity you know. so you know the activist. you the guy's an activist. he's you know, got to raise know, he's got to raise attention. what done attention. that's what he's done and not least, the and last but not least, the daily . no surprise, england daily star. no surprise, england fans are passionate about football so much they'll miss their mother in law's funeral neck. oh yeah, this is almost half of england and wales will skip work world cup and his skip work for world cup and his funeral he 50% said that with their employment and the respect of family and friends. i of their family and friends. i mean that's funny. i if it's

italia 90 i get it it was a magical tournament those kind of tournament what i do it for the qatar world cup i feel i probably wouldn't i sort of get it because in 2006 i remember being work in retail being stuck at work in my retail job an versus job when it was an versus portugal. i also remember in portugal. and i also remember in the recently forced the euros recently being forced to evans do a to listen to simon evans do a speech than watch the speech rather than watch the football. i tell you which a huge problem so sort huge problem so i sort sympathise. sympathise but sympathise. i do sympathise but from in the final you know i'm not sure about the group stages . yeah i'm with you on i think you know there's some world cups where you know england are performing and there's an excitement about game and excitement about every game and there's dead and if there's all this dead and if it's great i'm i i'm not sure i've missed a funeral but work it would be a bit much want do don't they anthony is they rush off to the pub and they say normally to their other half his sorry got to go to the sorry love i've got to go to the big game and it be like finland versus you know new zealand is like is that really a crunch match . i like is that really a crunch match. i think like is that really a crunch match . i think the bottom line match. i think the bottom line is most of the world is excuse

to go to the pub and just have a few beers with your mates. is that a sort of income for england even in it was england even in in that it was one of best world ever. one of the best world cups ever. yeah it's it's a yeah yeah it's true. it's a really good point because we could enjoy and have could enjoy it and not have all that thank that stress. yeah. boys, thank you brilliant plenty of you for a brilliant plenty of locals of debates as locals and lots of debates as well. come back and us well. please come back and us soon. course , are seven soon. of course, are seven nights a week here on headliners . we're back tomorrow at 11 and sunday as well. and don't forget i'm back for mark dolan tonight night in from 8:00 tomorrow and the people's hour. see you then .
