hesitancy and how much money do you need to be happy? plus the most important part of the show, your emails. they come straight to my laptop. mark at gb news dot com and this show has a strict golden rule. we don't do boring. not on my watch . i just boring. not on my watch. i just won't have it. i just won't have it . so a big two hours to come. it. so a big two hours to come. great to have your company. we start with my big opinion . on start with my big opinion. on this show. we do like a bit of good news where we can find it, especially on a friday night. i mean, hopefully you've put the kids to bed and you may well be making substantial progress with a cold bottle of pinot grigio or a cold bottle of pinot grigio or a chilled san miguel, or perhaps you've got a nice brew on and have torn open a packet of custard creams. i tried to keep the sugar and carbs down, but i do love the occasional custard cream either way, this one ought to put a smile on your face. two very famous celebrities .

very famous celebrities. jonathan ross chat show king and the massively talented comedian richard ayoade have both put their necks on the line and written glowing reviews which adorn the front cover of this controversial book. it's called tough crowd. it's a brand new book by cancelled and disgraced comedy writer graham linehan. the man behind father ted . so the man behind father ted. so what was graham linehan's great crime? well, his adherence to the crazy idea taught in gcse biology and found in every medical textbook that there are , that there are just two sexes is but in the clown world that we now inhabit pointing out scientific facts is enough to destroy your career , which of destroy your career, which of course happened to graham. he lost all his tv work, even though he's one of the most gifted and successful writers in the country. he also wrote the it crowd big train and black books , but it all came crumbling books, but it all came crumbling down in plans for a father. ted a musical work and he lost his

marriage, his income , his marriage, his income, his livelihood. and he's had abuse and death threats rained upon him for the last three years. but apparently he's the one responsible for hates . make it responsible for hates. make it make sense. he even saw his gig at the edinburgh festival , at the edinburgh festival, allegedly a forum for artistic free expression cancelled by activist courts. so what did this guy do that was so wrong? well, his problems all started with the following tweets . men with the following tweets. men aren't women tho . that's the aren't women tho. that's the tweet men aren't women, tho four words that saw him lose his pubuc words that saw him lose his public voice and have his life destroyed. men aren't women though, but here's the thing. men aren't women though. and there's the problem at the heart of this crazy woke ideology which is infiltrating the public sector for our corporations. education the media and politics, all of it is a fiction. it's all a lie. and the truth will, in the end prevail in the same way that water finds

its way through a cracked roof . its way through a cracked roof. couple of things to note here. the book is already storming up the best seller list, reflecting the best seller list, reflecting the silent majority of people in this country who don't want women rebadged as birthing humans or chest feeders and who don't want children chemically castrated or butchered at the hands of a surgeon . the silent hands of a surgeon. the silent majority don't want men who identify as female rocking the full meat and two veg entering women's sports and winning records for swimming, weightlifting, rowing and rugby. they do want women to hang on to their hard won sex based rights . female only sport. female only changing rooms. female only toilets. female only. rape crisis centres. female only prisons. when you read a headune prisons. when you read a headline like this, one x soldier exposed her penis and used a wheelie bin as a sex toy in public. that's right. x soldier exposed her penis and

used a wheelie bin as a sex toy in public. and not only is it comical and absurd, but it's actually a slander, a libel on womankind. look out for more stories about women who go around raping people as this mad ideology continues to prevail. they are , of course not women . they are, of course not women. if you think i'm exaggerating, this madness reached its nadir in scotland when a double rapist calling himself isla bryson, a still fully intact biological male , was accommodated in a male, was accommodated in a female prison. a male rapist in a female prison. you couldn't make it up . graham linehan story make it up. graham linehan story is not made up either. it's terrifyingly true and shows how far down the rabbit hole we've come for this man's life to be destroyed for calling out this nonsense is really shocking . and nonsense is really shocking. and that's why i'm deeply impressed by jonathan ross and richard ayoade , who will get pelters for ayoade, who will get pelters for their support of the book and who will doubtless lose work given how shallow, selfish and

spineless so many celebrities are in the face of this woke madness, which most on the right and the left detest . it's truly and the left detest. it's truly impressive that these two have put their name to this . heroes put their name to this. heroes is not too strong a word . is not too strong a word. meanwhile, more good news. the brilliant singer roisin murphy was also threatened with career armageddon just a couple of weeks ago when she highlighted her concerns about puberty blockers for children. the ultra woke bbc removed her playlist from their music shows and everyone an and anyone wanted this poor woman cancelled. well it's going the other way . as it's going the other way. as with graham linehan's book sales , her latest album is rocketing up the charts and may be number one by the end of the week. and she performed a sold out gig this week to five star reviews . this week to five star reviews. so the bud light debacle, the politically correct disney movies, flopping at the box office, j.k. rowling's massive new tv deal. mainstream british

stars speaking up for basic biology. the woke tide is turning, folks . this is a moment turning, folks. this is a moment to rejoice . in fact, it's such to rejoice. in fact, it's such good news. i'm going to have a custard cream . nice one. there you go . i've got nice one. there you go. i've got to say, this story does take the biscuit . it's a great to be biscuit. it's a great to be celebrating some good for news once, the woke tide is turning. what do you think, mark, at cbnnews.com . critics of graham cbnnews.com. critics of graham linehan would argue that what he has said is very upsetting for people who are trans and all they want to do is have a more inclusive society. so let me know your thoughts. mark, at gbnews.com. i'll get to your email shortly. but first,

tonight's top pundits jasmine birtles , lord kulveer, ranger birtles, lord kulveer, ranger and lewis oakley . lewis, great and lewis oakley. lewis, great to have you back on. not back on show. back on show for the very first time. welcome to mark dolan tonight. >> never been invited on the sofa well. sofa as well. >> whenever i've been here before, at the desk before, i'm just at the desk always, relaxing sofa. >> e nice e— sofa. >> nice people on mark >> very nice people on mark dolan tonight. >> comfortable >> listen, were you comfortable with to say about with what i had to say about about graham linehan's treatment ? >> not 7 >> not really. ? >> not really. so look , as 7 >> not really. so look , as the >> not really. so look, as the bisexual one and the lgbt one on the panel, of course i think that we need to have a lot more compassion with trans people. >> minority and >> they're a small minority and i when you these i understand when you see these stories that make the headlines. the with the and the thing with the beard and the rapist in the jail, i understand that people see that and are wound up by it. but, you know , wound up by it. but, you know, thatis wound up by it. but, you know, that is such a small minority of the minority anyway . and when the minority anyway. and when i'm out with like trans people and trans friends , like we're and trans friends, like we're just having a good time and i think that people miss the human elements of it. i know that trans is a big issue. we're not

going to solve it all now. it is an issue of our times and the whole thing about and whole thing about sports and stuff. to the stuff. that's going to be the debate is going on. i don't debate that is going on. i don't think it. don't think that think be it. i don't think that graham's takes were helpful, graham's hot takes were helpful, you mean ? it just you know what i mean? it just wasn't didn't really wasn't nice. it didn't really need to be said. it didn't evolve. the conversation in any helpful that said, i think helpful way that said, i think your point is about woke ness. and will say i think you have and i will say i think you have to be woke to have an issue with with what said about trans. with what he said about trans. but i will say i do think the tide is turning a little bit on the with not the wokeness with people not wanting preached with wanting to be preached to, with people to be told people not wanting to be told something's good just because it's a load of diverse it's got a load of diverse people in it and you know , to people in it and you know, to the people endorsing the point on people endorsing the endorsing the the book, they're endorsing the book, not book, right? they're not endorsing, hot takes endorsing, saying his hot takes on endorsing the on trans. they're endorsing the book. and i think that people are now being able more are now being able to more separate. i don't agree separate. look, i don't agree with but i'm not with you on this, but i'm not going you going to completely write you off. book was, okay. off. and your book was, okay. >> well, what do you think about this because certainly this cover? because i certainly have issue trans have got no issue with trans people. close people. i've got close friends who that important who have been on that important

journey. dave, and journey. if you are dave, and now want to become caroline now you want to become caroline , no problem. call you , no problem. i'll call you caroline say she caroline and i'll say she because think that's a because i think that's a courtesy. have courtesy. but what i won't have is biological women's is biological men in women's prisons or seeing children having their bodies changed as a result of a crazy ideology. well you and i will agree on that entirely. >> you know, none of us have an issue about people. well, i don't with trans people and what they're in fact, they're going through. in fact, ihave they're going through. in fact, i have more sympathy because we're where are we're in an era where we are more people and more sympathetic to people and the face. the challenges that they face. but what we're actually but i think what we're actually talking freedom of talking about here is freedom of speech cancel culture. speech and cancel culture. and this a prime example of it this was a prime example of it where graham and i've just placed an order for his book pre—order. so keep that going, because he should be allowed to say what he wants to say without threat of being cancelled. and his career being ruined, especially as we are witnessing that this probably be a silent majority of people who are not understanding why he is being cancelled . and therefore we have cancelled. and therefore we have to this cancel to question this cancel reasoning and justification for it. i think the debate of our

time, one of the debates of our time, one of the debates of our time is trans. but as you've said, lewis and you've said, mark, it's the proportion of this debate, okay, it's disproportionate . and people disproportionate. and people feel the changes that we're now having be having to accommodate could be or the size of this debate is disproportionate to the wider population. >> jasmine yes , absolutely. i >> jasmine yes, absolutely. i mean, i agree that it is the size of the debate. we're talking about a tiny, as lewis said, a tiny number of people, and yet the rest of us have to move around and particularly women have to set aside everything it seems about ourselves for this tiny minority. and you know, like everybody here, i've got i've got friends who are trans. you think most people i would say the vast majority of people in this country and in many countries would like fine. that's what you want to do. do what like, but do not what you like, but it's do not force it on us. and in particular, do not try to cancel women because this is what it feels. as you say, chess feeders, birthing people. no we are women and we have the right to safety. and i think that that

is very much gremlins point. and that's how i certainly support him. and i'm buying the book as well, just for the book, but well, not just for the book, but to support him and his what he's been doing very courageously, i think. yes. >> and i can't find anything truly controversial that he has said. but what do you think market cbnnews.com coming up next the story, have next in the big story, have labour's plans proved next in the big story, have labothey plans proved next in the big story, have labothey want plans proved next in the big story, have labothey want to plans proved next in the big story, have labothey want to take; proved next in the big story, have labothey want to take us oved next in the big story, have labothey want to take us back that they want to take us back into the eu? i'll be asking the co—founder of vote leave douglas carswell, live from united carswell, live from the united states that's .

radio. is the woke tide turning? >> that's the topic of my big opinion. willa strong reaction opinion. will a strong reaction on email at gbnews.com archaeologists , says peter have archaeologists, says peter have never found a trans skeleton. only male or female over thousands of years of discovery . lisa says if your panel member

is right that this is about a tiny minority , then why is it tiny minority, then why is it causing massive cancellation of people? matthew hello gb news on inclusivity. they can kiss my white, intolerant blimey, strong language for a friday night's matthew . well said, mark, says matthew. well said, mark, says jill . claire says wokeness. i'm jill. claire says wokeness. i'm pleased to hear that people are starting to wake up and smell the coffee. these woke idiots need to be stopped in their tracks . as robert says, mark, tracks. as robert says, mark, nigel nelson and scarlett mccgwire are both people regularly on gb news. they've said that women can have a penis. crazy. why do you have them on? well, robert , thank you them on? well, robert, thank you for that. i appreciate your point of view, but show is point of view, but this show is all about opinions. and mark dolan tonight is the home of diverse opinions. so keep yours coming. mark at cbnnews.com. it's time now for the big story and labour has defended its proposals to tackle the small boats crisis after the government accused it of pursuing an effective, open

border policy. sir keir starmer has said that he would aim to negotiate at a returns agreement with eu countries to send back some failed asylum seekers if labour wins power. government ministers claim the policy would lead to 100,000 illegal immigrants being shipped to the uk annually. labour have denied this figure, calling it garbage . however, yesterday sir keir starmer suggested he may be willing to accept a quota of migrants in the uk in exchange for a returns deal, as he set out plans to crack down on international people smuggling gangs. international people smuggling gangs . in international people smuggling gangs. in this international people smuggling gangs . in this particular gangs. in this particular debate, you have to ask yourself whether collaboration with brussels is a sensible policy or is it proof that ultimately labour wants to take us back into the eu? who better to ask than the co founder of vote leave, douglas carswell, who joins us live from the united states? douglas, this is a deal that gives the eu some control of our migrant policy. should

that be a red flag for brexit supporters ? supporters? >> we should be very concerned . >> we should be very concerned. look, mark, who would have thought seven years ago when we voted to leave the european union that seven years on, not only would we have have no control over our borders with almost 50,000 people coming across on the small boats , but across on the small boats, but that we would have the prospective next prime minister of the united kingdom , keir of the united kingdom, keir starmer, advocating that we should hand over control to europe a decision on whether or not to allow in 100,000 migrants from europe . this is all about from europe. this is all about politicians fundamentally not doing what they were mandated to do. seven years ago. they've not taken back control. they've not established effective, meaningful control over our borders. and now they are actively looking to align us with the european union in sharing the failure of western europe to control its own borders . it's not what people borders. it's not what people voted for . voted for. >> however, doesn't starmer have

a point that the only way we tackle this crisis, douglas, is by engaging with countries in europe. >> after all, it's a europe wide problem. we won't fix this in isolation, will we? >> it's not true that we solve this problem by collaborating with europe to share the number of illegal migrants coming into europe . europe. >> but there are other countries around the world who deal with the of illegal migrants the problem of illegal migrants coming by removing them. coming in by removing them. i wonder what would happen if you were to go to japan or china or india and to outstay your your visa, you would be simply removed by that country. what we're seeing in western europe is not merely a or in britain. it's not merely a collapse of administrative competence by the government . it's not so much an government. it's not so much an economic collapse. we suffer from. it's a moral collapse . the from. it's a moral collapse. the people who are supposed to run the country lack the moral confidence to remove people who come in unlawfully , and that is come in unlawfully, and that is a profound problem when you're governed by a ruling elite that

doesn't ultimately believe in using the force of the to state secure its borders, you cease to be an effective country. look, western europe is about to experience a huge demographic surge as the consequences of below replacement level birth rates, coupled with the very high birth rates in the middle east and north africa . it means east and north africa. it means that western europe is about to have a surge of people wanting to come in. if we cannot cope with 50,000 people in 2023 trying to cross the english channel or goodness knows what's going to happen in the next 10 or 20 years, this is this is a really serious problem , not just really serious problem, not just for the uk but for western europe. simply collaborating with europol to agree to take a portion of the illegal migrants coming into europe is no solution at all. >> is brexit safe in labour's hands ? hands? >> absolutely not. i think what we see with the labour party is an attempt to basically realign the uk to europe. they're trying

to do this explicitly when it comes to coping with illegal migration. i think you'll start to see labour try to do this in other areas to try to align britain with europe wide failure. it's not what people voted for 6 or 7 years ago. tragically though, the reason why the labour party is allowed to do this is because the absolute dog's breakfast that the current conservative party has made of britain post—brexit they they have essentially failed in basic competent administration. and this allows labour to then come in and in effect argue that realigning ourselves with europe is some sort of solution to our problems. douglas always great to have you on the show. >> have a great weekend. we'll catch up soon. my thanks to the co founder of vote leave, douglas carswell. up , douglas carswell. coming up, lucy letby, is she the victim of a miscarriage of justice? first, the weather .

unlikely victim of a miscarriage of justice as children are turning up with measles at school, have pandemic policies created a climate of vaccine hesitant ? ac and how much money hesitant? ac and how much money do you need to be happy .

listening to gb news radio. >> right. i'll get to your emails shortly, but reacting to the big stories of the day, tonight's top pundits , financial tonight's top pundits, financial and business journalist jasmine birtles, money magpie .com is her brilliant website look lord kulveer ranger, the broadcaster and former adviser to boris johnson and a brand new star on mark dolan tonight, podcaster and commentator lewis oakley. lewis what's the podcast called? >> bisexual brunch . >> bisexual brunch. >> bisexual brunch. >> well, there you go. there you go. on >> of course, we'll have you do i qualify? no, we'll find out . i qualify? no, we'll find out. >> i'm very flexible. i'm very open minded. >> there. >> there. >> do brunch, mark? >> you do brunch, mark? >> you do brunch, mark? >> i do, actually. the bisexual

is probably easier than the brunch what? with my brunch with what? with my digestive system. okay, well, look, to rather look, let's get to a rather serious lucy is serious story. lucy letby is appealing against all of her convictions murdering seven convictions for murdering seven babies attempting kill babies and attempting to kill another six. the 33 year old was sentenced to a whole life term in august. yet her legal team has lodged an application for permission to appeal. so with letby, apparently heading back to court, should convicted murderers allowed appeal murderers be allowed to appeal their sentence? jasmine certainly in this case, absolutely . absolutely. >> i do think that lucy letby had a very poor trial and i have heard from legal specialists that her case actually mirrors the case of two other nurses who were also accused of mass murder and then later on were found actually not to be guilty. there was one in britain and there was one in holland. and it's particularly also because she's she's a nurse and i don't know if you've noticed, but it tends to be nurses who get done rather

than doctors. and that was the first thing that got to me. also i don't trust quite a lot of the way the statistics were done. i think there are quite a lot of statistics about deaths when she wasn't there . that seemed to wasn't there. that seemed to have been pretty much disregarded. i'm not happy about the behaviour of the police. there are basically there are a lot of things about this case that i'm not happy about, including, frankly, the screaming headlines, the screaming headlines, the screaming commentary about somebody that i think people didn't really know very much about. so i would like a retrial i >> -- >> yeah, it's a trial by media is something that you're concerned about. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> is it conceivable, bill, that she appeal this and walk she could appeal this and walk free? conceivable? free? is that conceivable? >> look at >> very well. if you look at these two cases before the one in holland, the one in britain at. absolutely. that's what happened with both of those kulveer could lucy letby be be the victim of a miscarriage of justice? >> if so, it would be the story of the century. >> it would be i. i also am

concerned about what this does to the families. you know , to be to the families. you know, to be honest, as a father of two relatively young children and anyone who is watching this, and it does have a further emotive sense when you witness this, what it does to those families who through that process is who go through that process is horrendous. and i found it difficult just to see the news while the trial was being covered. so i think we have an issue about, as jasmine was saying, how the trial was portrayed in the media. obviously, everyone is due a fair trial. if there are questions to be asked. let's go through that. but i think we have to really understand if there some very significant there is some very significant legal issues with the case, what are they? because that should be the real focus here. i think the evidence as it was presented seemed to be clear cut. but we're seeming to sort of unravel it. why did this not happen dunng it. why did this not happen during the case itself? those are questions i'd asking. are the questions i'd be asking. >> let me put this one to >> louis. let me put this one to you. school aged children are facing three week self—isolation if they've not had the measles

vaccine uptake for both mmr jabs is at 85% in england, equating to roughly 1 in 6 children of school aged that are not fully protected . vaccination rates are protected. vaccination rates are particularly low in london at 74, meaning 1 in 4 children could be at risk . so 74, meaning 1 in 4 children could be at risk. so as children are turning up with measles to school , have pandemic policies school, have pandemic policies created a climate of vaccine health wittensee louis have the authorities brought this on themselves ? themselves? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i mean , it's a bit of a given i >>i -- >> i think that people don't like how they were pushed in the in the pandemic. people don't like that there were mandates for certain things. and think for certain things. and i think it created more scepticism, it has created more scepticism, which isn't healthy because measles is not something to mess around correct. so you around with. correct. so you know, i think maybe it's a bit of a perfect storm because it's not just the authorities have done obviously done this, but obviously we've locked downs. people maybe didn't children, didn't take their children, maybe to scared, to maybe they were to scared, to take children go and take their children to go and get vaccines . you know, as

get these vaccines. you know, as someone who had two in someone who had two kids in pretty much lockdowns , you know, pretty much lockdowns, you know, trying those vaccines in, trying to get those vaccines in, it was tricky at certain points with go and you've got with who can go and you've got to stand outside. and i remember when had her first when my daughter had her first ones, couldn't in with her. ones, i couldn't go in with her. only her mom did. and i was like outside. >> and you don't mean the covid vaccine? just. vaccine? you mean just. >> no, no, no. >>— >> no, no, no. >> the regular >> just the regular immunisation. >> just the regular ieregular, n. ones? yeah >> regular, normal ones? yeah so, it's a tough one. so, look, it's a tough one. i think that we need to get the message there because message out there because you might have been sceptical about the but these the covid vaccine, but these ones, these is not ones, i mean these this is not something around something to mess around with. >> angry about this, >> well, i'm angry about this, jasmine. the chickens jasmine. i think the chickens have roost because have come home to roost because vast swathes of the population were pressured to have were heavily pressured to have a vaccine that perhaps statistically they didn't need. and now here we are. >> exactly. yes. mean, >> well, exactly. yes. i mean, they can't surprised. they can't be surprised. but what this this story looks to me like a business, actually. i think that this has been pushed big time by the pharmaceutical companies who've gone , as you companies who've gone, as you say, scary, scary . people aren't say, scary, scary. people aren't taking our vaccines , you know, taking our vaccines, you know,

because of the way we've behaved . and we must now push the fear because actually the apparently this year there's only been 125 cases of measles. this year there's only been 125 cases of measles . before that cases of measles. before that last year . this is what i'm told last year. this is what i'm told it was 55. so they can say, oh, it's doubled, but it's still actually very small . i'm not actually very small. i'm not aware of i haven't heard figures for any children who've died of it , and yet for any children who've died of it, and yet it's being pushed as something horrendous that so many parents are not getting their children vaccinated . and i their children vaccinated. and i really , genuinely, i feel that really, genuinely, i feel that this is a business story. they're saying we're not selling enough vaccines. we're not making enough money. i don't think this is coming from the doctors. i think it's coming from the pharmaceutical companies. >> interesting . well, you reap >> interesting. well, you reap what sow, don't you? had what you sow, don't you? we had the covid policies in relation to vaccination. covid and the vaccine was very welcome to vulnerable groups. was vulnerable groups. and it was miraculous. but many people who feel they were healthy would like chances with feel they were healthy would like virus chances with feel they were healthy would like virus were chances with feel they were healthy would likevirus were not chances with feel they were healthy would likevirus were not given as with feel they were healthy would likevirus were not given that th the virus were not given that opportunity. we have

opportunity. and now we have vaccine hesitancy. do . vaccine hesitancy. we do. >> but i think it's a different segment of society. we're talking parents and very talking about parents and very young children, you know, children under five. and our emotional response versus our rational response can be very different with that group as parents, as louis and i have young children, young young children, very young children category at the children in that category at the moment, we'll probably err on the of saying precaution , the side of saying precaution, be cautious, take the vaccine as we have done in our family and really, you know, do what we can to avoid this terrible well, measles is very terrible if it gets a grip and if the cases are going distinctly, as jasmine said, the numbers have gone up, even if that has the potential of increasing rapidly , parents of increasing rapidly, parents like myself would probably say , like myself would probably say, you know, do what we need to do to put that back. >> yes. well, there you go. both of kids had all their regular of my kids had all their regular vaccinations. vaccine vaccinations. but is vaccine hesitancy something the authorities have brought upon themselves? let me know, mark, at gbnews.com. coming up, my mark is the former mark meets guest is the former head intelligence agency mi6

head of intelligence agency mi6 , sir richard dearlove. plus in an exclusive mark dolan tonight people's poll we've been asking as lucy letby goes back to court, should convicted murderers be allowed to appeal their sentence? the results are in and will reveal all in and i will reveal all

next welcome back to mark dolan tonight in the course of today, we've been conducting an exclusive mark dolan tonight people's poll. i've been asking as lucy letby goes back to court, should convicted murderers be allowed to appeal their sentence? well, the results are in and it's narrow. 60% say yes, whilst 40% say no. no, she should not appeal . no, she should not appeal. looking forward to this in just 15 minutes time. set your watches . don't miss a second. watches. don't miss a second. it's my take at ten super luvvie stephen fry thinks brexit's been a disaster . stephen fry thinks brexit's been a disaster. oh, well, i'll be deaung a disaster. oh, well, i'll be dealing with him in just a short while. you won't want to miss it. but first, mark meets. on

this evening. sir richard dearlove , the former head of the dearlove, the former head of the british secret intelligence service, mi6 , a government service, mi6, a government agency responsible for the collection analysis and dissemination of foreign intelligence . the mi6 is also intelligence. the mi6 is also charged with the conduct of espionage activities outside of british territory. sir richard is currently chairman of the board of trustees of the university of london and he was previously master of pembroke college, cambridge from 2004 to 2015. sir richard, welcome to mark dolan tonight at what is the greatest immediate threat to british national security, do you think ? you think? >> i think it's probably twofold and we have a major war on the european continent , which and we have a major war on the european continent, which is a destabilizer in all sorts of different ways . and i think in different ways. and i think in addition to that, we should look at organised criminality. and by that i mean everything that covers cyber crime, illegal

immigration, the drugs trade . immigration, the drugs trade. but i mean i'm putting the emphasis on immediate. i mean there are there are longer term serious threats as well . serious threats as well. >> we know a few years ago that the nhs is entire it system was shut for down about a day. how bad could cyber crime be? because it feels perhaps to some of my viewers and listeners a bit abstract as a threat? well pretty serious. >> i mean, it depends on whether it's casual criminality or whether it's a sort of anarchist hacker or whether it's a nation state really trying to undermine our critical infrastructure, which there's some evidence that russia have been responsible for in i mean, i had my emails , i in i mean, i had my emails, i have my proton emails hacked by the russians right . the russians right. >> how was that unearthed ? >> how was that unearthed? >> how was that unearthed? >> it was unearthed thanks to the vigilance of our own security people . security people. >> why does mi6 matter to the

people of this country? why do we pay our taxes to pay for mi6 ? >> well, the first thing i would point out is it's very good value for money for the taxpayer . it's an essential part of the nation's defences . it's an nation's defences. it's an essential part of our national security. it's a central part of our overall defence in infrastructure , and it collects infrastructure, and it collects intelligence on the major threats to the country and looks at what our enemies and opponents are doing to undermine our national interests. so it fulfils an important role on a given week. >> how many terror attacks it's upon this country on the mainland might be thwarted . mainland might be thwarted. >> i don't think i can answer that question accurately . i that question accurately. i mean, i retired quite a long time ago, but let's face it, there are probably a number of conspiracies or ongoing concerns , issues which are being unearthed at any one time. and remember that isn't just mi6. it

would be the security service. it will be gchq working all together to look at these problems . problems. >> what about china ? there are >> what about china? there are clearly no friend of this country , but we have to work country, but we have to work with them, don't we? >> well, we have intertwined into dependent economies. look at the number of chinese students in our university at the moment. it's unimak reasonable that we're not going to have some sort of partnership relationship with china, but we need to conduct that relationship with our eyes wide open. relationship with our eyes wide open . a person i know very well, open. a person i know very well, who's very experienced and spent a lot of time in china, said, look , the chinese are good at look, the chinese are good at making you think it's win win, but ultimately it's win win. you lose and i think we just need to make very sure that the chinese understand that if we're going to have a relationship with them, it's win win. it's reciprocal, and we need to keep our eyes wide open continuously , which is why you backed the

decision by the then prime minister, theresa may to cancel the huawei rollout of five g. >> well, i was vociferous personally on huawei, and i think i was one of the first people to speak out, despite the factit people to speak out, despite the fact it was government policy to allow the huawei company to do fact it was government policy to allofiveie huawei company to do fact it was government policy to allofive g,-iuawei company to do fact it was government policy to allofive g, butvei company to do fact it was government policy to allofive g, but over)mpany to do fact it was government policy to allofive g, but over time,|y to do our five g, but over time, i think the threat has been understood and realised. >> huawei as a chinese company has very close links with the chinese military. >> so richard, you've spoken about mass unchecked immigration into western countries like the uk net migration into britain last year was over 600,000, and that's before you get to illegal immigration. what are your concerns about this level of migration into the country from a point of view, it's a security point of view, it's destabilising ing socially. >> it's destabilising politically , it allows people politically, it allows people who have , let's say, criminal who have, let's say, criminal backgrounds, it allows potential terrorists into the country. i mean , there are so many knock mean, there are so many knock ons and concerns from having

large waves of immigration. >> but would that include the legal the legal migration to this country or would you focus exclusively on the small boats crisis or is it? >> well, i think i would focus i mean, look, there's an element of migration which is healthy for the economy. we all know that and we all understand that. i think the people i think it's the people trafficking . it's the illegal. trafficking. it's the illegal. and i mean, a lot of the people claiming to be refugees, they're economic migrants. claiming to be refugees, they're economic migrants . and, you economic migrants. and, you know, very hard to absorb know, it's very hard to absorb them in the numbers that they're coming in. they're coming in too fast, too many. and it has a heavy political downside. look at effect it has on our at the effect it has on our politics basis . politics on a daily basis. >> i know that you're concerned , as most people are. most of my viewers and listeners, about preserving and protecting the environment. but you've been slightly in some slightly sceptical in some aspects of the debate around climate change. so climate hysteria, ideology , hysteria, gender ideology, critical race theory, all features of what's called woke ideology are these radical ideas

a threat to this country ? a threat to this country? >> i think there are to someone of my age , age there of deep of my age, age there of deep concern . i mean, zero carbon is concern. i mean, zero carbon is a certainly an objective that we all embrace. but a practical policy to zero carbon is something that deeply concerns me. and it seems that some of the, as it were , deadlines being the, as it were, deadlines being put in place by the government are completely impractical. well, if we are not going, they're not going to work. if we bankrupt ourselves for net zero whilst china burn fossil fuels for fun, that is a national security issue, isn't it? yeah sure. because i mean, you know , sure. because i mean, you know, at the moment we export a lot of our carbon to china or, you know , manufacturing and they are encouraging us to invest in renewables when renewables quite frankly, are still a relatively small part of our energy system. and are not growing at the speed that some people think they are

largely uneconomic. look what happenedin largely uneconomic. look what happened in the last auction for, you know, building wind , for, you know, building wind, new wind farms. >> no, no investment. >> no, no investment. >> no, no investment. >> no investment, no takers because they're too expensive . because they're too expensive. we need a practical , pragmatic we need a practical, pragmatic policy that works. and i think at the moment, we're in a zone where we're looking at we're looking we're looking at policies which are based on ideology and not good sense . ideology and not good sense. >> quick one on the iraq war was alastair campbell's sexed up dossier and the failure to unearth those famed weapons of mass destruction damaging to the reputation of british intelligence . intelligence. >> now, of course, it was , but i >> now, of course, it was, but i wouldn't put all the blame on alastair shoulders. it's look, it's a really complicated issue . and, you know, the chilcot inquiry has written a report that's longer than the bible trying to get to the bottom of it. in in my view, it still doesn't answer satisfaction a lot of the questions. so if you wanted me to debate it, we need to hour's program to

to debate an hour's program to it. i think speaking of an hours it. i think speaking of an hour's program is worth of material. >> how do you solve a problem like vladimir putin at the moment ? moment? >> by supporting the ukrainians militarily with armaments to the hilt and not, as it were, weakening in our resolve to see ukraine regain its lost territory? yes i think i think you're hopeful of a resolution in moscow. >> that would probably be the swift solution. well, i think i think putin's position is probably fragile. >> we've just seen that with what happened to prigozhin to rights. >> what are your thoughts about the uk and brexit, global britain and the implications for our security ? our security? >> i'm an optimist. i think that our, as it were , re—established our, as it were, re—established independence in the making of foreign and defence policy. the development of an alliance like aukus with australia and the united states. these are big, practical steps which put us and

i mean, let's face it, brussels is not really very competent at doing geopolitics. so i think to be liberated from brussels , be liberated from brussels, inability to take unified decisions on big international policy issues is a big plus for brexit. >> well, speaking of geopolitics , let me tell you that sir richard dearlove is the presenter , the co—presenter of presenter, the co—presenter of one decision. it's a podcast with 150,000 listeners as we speak. one decision do check it out. and sir richard, thank you so much for your valuable time . so much for your valuable time. lots more to come. i'll be deaung lots more to come. i'll be dealing with stephen fry. but first, the weather. first, here's the weather. >> like things are heating >> looks like things are heating up . boxed boilers, proud up. boxed boilers, proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. sponsors of weather on. gb news. >> hi there. it's aidan mcgivern here from the met office. with the gb news forecast, it's going to stay warm in the south over the next 24 hours. it's going to stay cool in the north, but through the weekend, there's an increased chance of thundery showers in places as the

have hoped that fry, a famously clever man, educated it to within an inch of his life at cambridge university, would understand the concept of democracy , too. i'm sure that he democracy, too. i'm sure that he read some latin. you'd hope so. but it seems that this darling of the media elite isn't happy with the decision made by a majority of the public the proletariat, the great unwashed to leave a political bloc demonstrating how religious rather than political or economic . this irrational hatred economic. this irrational hatred of brexit has become. fry offers no argument against brexit, merely saying that everyone, whoever they are, can feel it in their bones, that it's been a catastrophe . hating brexit has catastrophe. hating brexit has become a cult . honestly, these become a cult. honestly, these die hard remainers are utter cults after all. everything apparently is brexit's fault. supply chain problems are brexit's fault . even though the brexit's fault. even though the world was in lockdown for two and a half years. inflation is brexit fault. even though the government printed empty billions to fund the covid response, the national debt ,

response, the national debt, energy bills, the cost of living crisis. all of this is brexit's fault , not the fact that we fault, not the fact that we borrowed money we didn't have in a failed attempt to stop a virus . what else might brexit be responsible for? the stubborn recession in germany and across the eurozone? is that brexit? england's dismal performance against ukraine in the football? is that brexit's fault ? what is that brexit's fault? what about the wildly unfair knee all female reboot of ghostbusters is another consequence of our departure from the bloc. do me a favour in the eyes of these millionaire luvvies with more air miles than the wright brothers in britain is apparently a xenophobe , hick apparently a xenophobe, hick backward looking hell hole . backward looking hell hole. fry's old mate emma thompson described this country as and i quote, a rainy corner of sort of europe, a cake filled, misery laden grey old island . none of laden grey old island. none of this, of course, is true . this, of course, is true. britain is an economic and creative powerhouse , a joyful, creative powerhouse, a joyful,

open and tolerant society and a global beacon of diversity . and global beacon of diversity. and we have a complex but proud history. of course , among the history. of course, among the showbiz elite. this is an unfashionable view and talking down the country and raging about brexit is their favourite pastime as they guzzle negroni cheese at the groucho club in soho. cheese at the groucho club in soho . stephen fry is a truly soho. stephen fry is a truly wonderful talent and i've always been and remain a massive fan. but with his arrogant, dismissive comments about brexit, which of course he's entitled to make, what is he actually saying about the 17.6 million people that voted for it? i mean, 17.6 million. that's a lot of xenophobic bigots, isn't it ? that's a lot of thick, isn't it? that's a lot of thick, uneducated people, wouldn't you say? in fact, brexit was the biggest democratic event in the history of this country and stephen fry is famously very well read. so perhaps he could have a read of some of these actual facts. bnp paribas, one

of the biggest banks in the world, a french bank, no less, has advised its clients to move money out of the eurozone on into britain . how about this, mr into britain. how about this, mr fry ? britain has been readmitted fry? britain has been readmitted into the eu's horizon project. such is the value of our scientific expertise since we left the eu , britain has grown left the eu, britain has grown 8.7. germany 8.1, and italy 6.1. did. italy have brexit? we've seen a million new jobs in that time and by 2020 2nd july 2022, our exports to the eu were not just the highest since brexit, but the highest ever investment into the uk . but the highest ever investment into the uk. up but the highest ever investment into the uk . up exports to the into the uk. up exports to the uk , up exports to the rest of uk, up exports to the rest of the world. up, up, up. have i made my point? we avoid recession. germany gets one. inflation is heading south. it goes on even that well reported figure that britain was the

slowest g7 country to recover from the pandemic proved to be a big fat lie with the ons correcting what they thought was a downturn of nought point 2% to the truth, which is that we had expanded by 1.5, outpacing wait for it germany, france and italy and even japan . then there's the and even japan. then there's the aukus nuclear defence deal with america and australia. not possible with eu membership. they see trade deal with the cptpp they see trade deal with the cptpp ipp, which i thought was a cough mixture but is the largest trading bloc in the world bigger than the eu. the canadian meat industry are currently complaining about that deal because wait for it, it's too good for britain . that's right. good for britain. that's right. brexit win is furious. good for britain. that's right. brexit win is furious . canadians brexit win is furious. canadians claim new trade deal is too positive for the uk . we positive for the uk. we currently have 38 active trade deals which we don't have to pay the eu for . with deals which we don't have to pay the eu for. with more on the way, including india and a market of a billion people. oh, and we can dispense with the

idea that britain doesn't produce anything anymore. that old chestnut this week it was announced the uk manufacturing has jumped to number eight in the world. leap frogging france. no pun intended, and closing in on italy. mamma mia. no pun intended, and closing in on italy. mamma mia . rising to on italy. mamma mia. rising to number eight in the world for manufacture motoring since brexit and how about this, mr fry? a new poll by us news and world report reveals that americans rate the uk as the best country in the world, all since brexit. stephen fry can feel that it's in his bones that brexit has been a disaster. well, i feel in my bones that he's talking out of his backside and this famous comedian got everyone laughing this week , but everyone laughing this week, but not for the right reasons . what not for the right reasons. what do you think, mark at gbnews.com now i am a big fan of stephen fry. i think he's a really

hilarious man. i loved fry and laurie. i love his books, jeeves and wooster. he's got unlimited talents. he's a great, great, great artist. okay. and perhaps you could argue that he's worried about some of the brexit impacts, right? i've never painted over or glossed over the fact that small businesses are suffering as a result of brexit. there are now small and medium sized enterprises that don't export to the eu at all because of red tape. so it ain't perfect. but i would argue the data speaks for itself. it's largely positive. but let's get the view of my top pundits. jasmine birtles , who is jasmine birtles, who is a financial and business journalist, the founder of money magpie .com lord kulveer ranger broadcaster and former advisor to boris johnson , and a brand to boris johnson, and a brand new star on mark dolan tonight podcaster and commentator lewis oakley kulveer ranger. i'm sorry, but i'm not having stephen fry tonight . stephen fry tonight. >> well, i'm disappointed he's not here as well because i'd love to have seen his response to you, mark, but i think you'd have him on not just a have had him on not just a technicality, probably technicality, but probably a knockout think

knockout there. i think the issue also is, you know, we see lots of i dare i say , luvvies lots of i dare i say, luvvies from the left, usually on a sunday morning, usually on our national prime time channel, giving some kind of political analysis. normally anti—government. and this is a concern there because there is a narrative that is continually played out. but the facts are not played out. and the ones that you read out are factual are trade deals. our freedom to make the decisions that we want to around not what to make around not just what we're terms of the we're doing in terms of the economy, but also in terms of how we have dealt with other issues such as national defence, the aukus deal being a prime example. so the freedoms that we were looking for have been grasped. we still have a lot more to do . you've said it's not more to do. you've said it's not perfect. there is much more to achieve, but we can't have the naysayers any evidence naysayers without any evidence really saying that it hasn't worked . worked. >> lewis oakley i voted remain because i was worried about short to medium term brexit impacts. i do think it's been a problem some businesses, but problem for some businesses, but look numbers . the look at those numbers. the figures don't lie. you i mean,

there's definitely there's stats to argue anything . to argue anything. >> if you're a small business, you probably had a lot to say about about the stats you had. look i think stephen fry is free to say what he wants. we always talk he said, talk about free speech. he said, what he what he said, i will say that, you know, seven years on the left the port. the ship has left the port. we're brexiteers now. it we're all brexiteers now. it doesn't what said in doesn't matter what you said in 2016, doesn't matter. 2016, it really doesn't matter. we all have to make this work. now, as that is young in now, as someone that is young in this with children and this country with children and i kind need country to kind of need this country to work, to make a work, we've got to make a success do still success of it. and you do still run into people that will be like, oh, well, it's all brexit's fault, so not even brexit's fault, so i'm not even going bother. we have to. going to bother. we have to. this is the direction this this is the direction now. this is i know is how democracy works. i know it close. i that there it was close. i know that there are lot arguments either are a lot of arguments either way, come on, it's way, but come on, it's been seven now. can't still seven years now. you can't still be to this. we've be coming back to this. we've got to make it a success. >> jasmine, you are the financial expert , but what's financial expert, but what's your view of what stephen fry had to say? he said that most people i think he said everyone can feel it their bones that

can feel it in their bones that brexit has been a catastrophe. well, like you, i voted to remain and i was furious when i saw the result. >> now i'm thinking , phew, thank >> now i'm thinking, phew, thank goodness we're out. there are so many problems with the eu . i do many problems with the eu. i do genuinely think we are better off out. i do think that the problem that we've had over the last few years , apart from all last few years, apart from all the lockdowns, etcetera, is that there have been signal vacant number of people in power here and not just in government but in the media all over who have been working against brexit. and when you have a country that is divided against itself, essentially you've got a bunch of people saying we've got to go in this direction. others are saying we've got to go in that direction. well, you're not going at all. so going to get anywhere at all. so yes, hasn't worked as well as yes, it hasn't worked as well as it have done. but it should have done. but i think, as lewis says, we have think, as lewis says, if we have more all right, more people saying, all right, all not happy all right, we're not happy about it, will together, it, but we will work together, this where are . we're this is where we are. we're going together. there going to work together. there are opportunities, so are so many opportunities, so very many. and as i say , i'm

very many. and as i say, i'm actually personally glad that we're out. and i do know a lot of people in europe who'd like to be out to italians particularly. they really want out now to lend a word of defence to my friend stephen fry. >> he does probably speak for millions of people in this country who are still furious about brexit and who feel that the campaign was misleading and therefore not not really a very justified result. stephen fry perhaps would argue that many lies were told in the run up to the referendum . um, so you know, the referendum. um, so you know, we talked about the impact on small businesses of brexit. it's very sad that young brits can't just suddenly decide to go and set up shop in italy or move to france. of course that is a cultural price that we've paid and of course you've got other, other tensions around the brexit project . so do you love it? do project. so do you love it? do you not love it? is stephen fry right? let me know your thoughts . mark at gbnews.com. but you're absolutely right. i've criticised his view, but he's entitled to make it. coming up

after their botched stop the boats plan and the blocking of 100,000 new homes have labour left the door open for rishi sunak at the next election? has he been handed a political lifeline by bumbling keir starmer? we'll discuss that with a top fleet street insider

radio. >> it's time now for the newsmaker and rishi sunaks hopes of building 100,000 more homes were crushed on tuesday after labour blocked the proposal in the house of lords . labour the house of lords. labour leader sir keir starmer was accused of turning from a builder to a blocker after ordering peers to vote against plans to axe water pollution rules to encourage housebuilding. meanwhile deputy leader angela rayner has pledged this week to restore more powers to trade unions and give them an ability to strike within 100 days of a labour government . days of a labour government. this on top of a new strategy to stop the boats should they win power . with starmer seeking

power. with starmer seeking a deal to accept a quota of migrants from the eu every year , which some fear is free movement by the back door. so with the announcement of these policies, which will be unpopular in some quarters, have labour left the door open for rishi sunak at the next election? let's speak to tonight's newsmaker, one of the best connected journalists in the country. the political editor of the express online. david maddox. david, have labour handed rishi sunak a political lifeline ? lifeline? >> hi, mark. yeah, well, i think this was always inevitable . at this was always inevitable. at some point labour was going to have to come out of hiding and actually explain what they were going to do. >> and now we're beginning to see the full horror of it, you know, i mean, you've just identified a few of them, but i mean, the i think the small boats policy yesterday was a particularly dreadful one. i mean, it's going to start the

reversal of brexit. it's going to hand over power to how many migrant illegal migrants we take to brussels . it's migrant illegal migrants we take to brussels. it's going to mean that , you know, not that we that, you know, not that we haven't had enough already, but we're going to get 100,000, at least extra illegal migrants. it's going to create a kind of open doors policy . so, you know, open doors policy. so, you know, we're actually finally beginning to see some of the truth behind what labour really is, really enjoyed reading your piece in today's express online about how starmer is off to a woke conference with canadian premier justin trudeau. >> tell me more . >> tell me more. >> tell me more. >> well , he's >> tell me more. >> well, he's he's he's he's off to the kind of it was called the centrist dad conference. but actually, jacinda ardern remember her from new zealand she's she's going to be there as well. so the centrist dad and mum thing. but it's , you know, mum thing. but it's, you know, it's a creation. it's a

collection really of the world's worst politicians as far as i can see. of course. ardern and trudeau were both trained up by the world economic forum. they were both on that , uh, youth were both on that, uh, youth programme, but it runs the davos people . well, as, as was the people. well, as, as was the irish taoiseach as well. and uh, you know, and we had a couple of, a couple of weeks ago or was it last week? keir starmer was asked davos or westminster who should be making the decisions, and he said, davos . davos, of and he said, davos. davos, of course, is the, you know, the woke billionaires , is the woke billionaires, is the unaccountable the people who hate things like brexit, who complain about populism and all the rest of it , who don't want the rest of it, who don't want any scrutiny , you know, and this any scrutiny, you know, and this is this is the sort of vision that starmer has for this country . country. >> speaking of vision, let's talk about his deputy, angela raynen talk about his deputy, angela rayner, who addressed the tuc conference this week . david

conference this week. david saying that she'd scrap zero hours contracts, boost the minimum wage and give the unions more power to go on strike. perhaps laudable aims in some cases, but politically contentious . contentious. >> well, i think most of us think that the unions seem to be able to go on strike whenever they want. and you know, they've they've already caused chaos in they've already caused chaos in the nhs and probably cost some people their lives , certainly by people their lives, certainly by wrecking the attempts to bring down the waiting lists . i mean down the waiting lists. i mean let's let's not beat about the bush on that. i mean, they literally played with people's lives. the unions have on that but bringing the transport network to a halt for that is my son is about to start university and the university lecturers are still on strike. it turns out, you know, and have been for well over a year . you know, and have been for well over a year. teachers keep on going on strike, so i don't really see how much easier it

needs to be for them actually. and speaking actually, as somebody who used to work on a zero hours contract, a few years back, it's not such a bad thing. and actually i rather enjoyed the flexible city it gave me when i was starting out in work. and you know , angela rayner just and you know, angela rayner just is fairly typical of actually unusually in labour these days but that old labour kind of myopic look on what work should be and you know it's the truth again it's a truth again of what's happening with labour. >> yes. i don't think you should make it harder for businesses to employ people. i've got to say. listen, i wish your lad very, very great success at university. if he's 1% as very great success at university. if he's1% as smart as his dad, he'll get a first. my as his dad, he'll get a first. my thanks to david maddox, who is the political editor of the express online express. .co.uk is their website front pages on the way. first, the weather. a

a of years in her family a number of years in her family and a lovely labrador . we love and a lovely labrador. we love dogs. the issue we have is dogs. and the issue we have is the irresponsible ownership and the irresponsible ownership and the irresponsible ownership and the irresponsible breeding that is being going on here that have absolutely brought this issue forward. we've seen the numbers rise in dog attacks as well. i think we're at 22,000 this year. it's steadily growing, it's been steadily growing, going . i'm with the spca, going up. i'm with the spca, battersea dogs home, all of them who are saying, look , yes, who are saying, look, yes, something to do about the dogs, but we must look at the ownership. we must look at who who's being allowed to have these dogs and how they're treating those and these treating those dogs. and these dogs then become an issue for the community we're seeing. the community as we're seeing. so takes for a well minded so if it takes for a well minded community, citizens to say there's dog here that's not there's a dog here that's not being that is being treated well, that is becoming a danger, then we need to call out . to call it out. >> you got kids? i mean, >> louis, you got kids? i mean, we're worried. don't we're all worried. you don't have parent to worry have to be a parent to worry about this, but i a small about this, but i mean, a small child no chance with of child has no chance with one of these this is these animals. this is. this is necessary, it? necessary, isn't it? >> so . and i am someone >> i think so. and i am someone that worries a little bit about

the government coming in to nanny ban things. but nanny state and ban things. but i think you can take i just don't think you can take a chance with these dogs. i think they have go. and it's think they have to go. and it's not and i totally not just about and i totally take owners but take your point about owners but with them it could just take your point about owners but witthat them it could just take your point about owners but witthat they them it could just take your point about owners but witthat they overheatcould just take your point about owners but witthat they overheat andd just take your point about owners but witthat they overheat and justt be that they overheat and just go berserk. so even with good owners, i just think of owners, i just think the size of them, 110, owners, i just think the size of them, do, their them, what they can do, their jaws lock. and just think jaws can lock. and i just think of of my little kids. of the size of my little kids. we just don't need to be taking that chance. know that some that chance. i know that some people not people might say, well, it's not been but we don't been that many, but we don't need be any higher than it need it to be any higher than it already has been. >> jasmine absolutely. >> louis jasmine do you think a cull a little beyond the pale cull is a little beyond the pale there? >> i think a cull is in all honesty. i mean, i'm very much i'm angry that they're called devil dogs. they're not devil dogs. is the owners. dogs. it is the owners. absolutely. remember absolutely. and you remember we had few years ago with had this a few years ago with rottweilers . we had pitbulls . rottweilers. we had pitbulls. absolutely. i love pitbulls . absolutely. i love pitbulls. i've got i've got friends who've got rottweilers. they're fabulous, fabulous dogs. it's the way they're looked after or looked after , the way they're looked after, the way they're treated, how they're trained to

behave. we also very much still have dog fights going on. you know , behind the scenes that know, behind the scenes that these sort of things exist. and i agree that we do need to have us as just people in the society noticing what's happening and telling the authorities if we see bad things happening with dogs, what's happening on the streets, though, of our great cities . cities. >> calvia is the weaponization of these animals. they are being bred and groomed by gangsters. and it's the equivalent now of a knife or a gun. >> yes, they are being used as weapons. and i think again and status in these gangs, cultures to have these kinds of beastly dogs and then again comes from how they're treated. they're encouraged to be more aggressive. and then become violent. so but we should be able to witness this in many of these cases, when something terrible happens , neighbours and terrible happens, neighbours and local oh , we local people are saying, oh, we did this with this dog. did notice this with this dog. we did see something happening or was attacked or somebody else was attacked and away. so i think and got got away. so i think call it out, you know, let's

let's not be afraid to call the owners out when we see these dogs being handled in that way. >> the war on motorists continues apace. louis the daily mail , continues apace. louis the daily mail, labour's 20 mile an hour limit, is beyond insane. this will be 20 now in all residential areas across wales. 20 is too slow, isn't it? it is. >>— 20 is too slow, isn't it? it is. >> it's the one that's learning to drive at the moment. >> i'm kind of wondering what's the point? because you know , get the point? because you know, get there quicker cycling at this rate. >> well, maybe, maybe that's the plan. >> i mean, that probably is the plan. it seems ridiculous . s i plan. it seems ridiculous. s i don't know who this is helping . don't know who this is helping. and you kind of see all these other studies like, but this actually the actually is worse for the environment so know. environment. so i don't know. but i mean , we'll just see if he but i mean, we'll just see if he gets primary schools. >> no problem. hospitals perhaps ? yeah, 20 miles an hour. but every residential road, it's ridiculous . ridiculous. >> xi jinping, drakeford, i don't know what, you know what his his aim in life is, but it does seem to me that he will do

everything to lock people down. stop them going anywhere. he doesn't want them to drive further than 15 minutes for 20 miles an hour. i mean, really , miles an hour. i mean, really, you know, as you say, i think we're being pushed towards cycling and walking, although are we guilty of double standards here? >> worried about dangerous >> we're worried about dangerous dogs, we're worried dogs, and yet we're not worried about well. about fast cars as well. >> i think, know , >> no. here i think, you know, this is welsh labour knows best, right? it's blanket right? because it's blanket policies . this is problem policies. this is the problem when blanket policies. when you have blanket policies. yes. outside schools, you know, there's there may be a need for slower , lower speed limits, but slower, lower speed limits, but when you apply across and i've done transport policy me i've looked at that you have to look at the nuances. you have to look at the nuances. you have to look at where actually will be at where actually there will be dual carriages or other parts of the road network where for a higher a speed limit is perfectly safe, perfectly acceptable. so it's this blanket approach, this control people, this not have the nuance that people the application of common sense leaves the building. when you get blanket policies like

this, why is it always like just average working people? >> i think if they really want to save the planet, let's ban private jets. do that first. yes. and then do this. but coming back to mark's point, this is also being justified as protecting nhs by a comrade i >> stratford. >> stratford. >> well, indeed. so speaking of the nhs, corvia insomnie the drug gets the nhs green light and there's no next day grogginess. hallelujah >> well, you know , there are in >> well, you know, there are in some ways a huge problem for a lot of people. i know that. but i think if this works , they'll i think if this works, they'll solve, you know, a good night's sleep is great for everyone . i sleep is great for everyone. i just am always concerned when there's more drugs here that are there's more drugs here that are the answer here, because normally shall i say, and i don't suffer from insomnia because i've got two young children and a very busy life, i'm conked out. at the end of the day. but there are some other issues, plus the demands of late day as well. of late day rangers as well. >> and we won't dwell that >> and we won't dwell on that family come on. we've all family show. come on. we've all had drink , a nice of tea. had a drink, a nice cup of tea. >> but. there are other

>> but. but there are other things, other mental health issues, other challenges that sometimes drugs sometimes it's not the drugs only are going to solve only that are going to solve those problems. >> , that's exactly >> yeah, that's exactly what i was say. you know, they was going to say. you know, they say, there's no grogginess, say, oh, there's no grogginess, but what other side effects are there? you know, we won't know for quite a while. and as sylvia says, with with with something like insomnia , there are many like insomnia, there are many other factors. so those things need to be dealt with. it's not just, oh, here's a pill. >> indeed, the pm rejects a reprieve for petrol cars sticking to that 2030 deadline. that's not going to be popular , that's not going to be popular, is it? particularly when the germans , for example, have germans, for example, have pushed it back to 2035? >> yeah, the german ones who have pretty much run by the green seems like green party, it just seems like it's almost sort of a religious thing now with climate. thing now with the climate. they're not thinking. they're not looking at the figures, they're not listening to the people. need to listen to people. they need to listen to the . they to the the people. they listen to the people uk, they'd be people in the uk, they'd be saying, back to 2050. saying, move it back to 2050. actually so are they really ? actually so are they really? this is a very stupid idea, i

survive on the state pension. that's about ten grand a year. so >> so, yeah, good luck with that . i actually i don't think money necessarily makes you happy, but the absence of debt is something that i think is the ultimate goal that i think is the ultimate goal. yes and when you look at those credit card statements coming in and those mortgage statements , it puts years on statements, it puts years on you. let me tell you, it does. >> it's a pretty unhappy thing, as my viewers and as many of my viewers and listeners will will, of course, attest . attest to. >> let's get to your headline, heroes and page zeros. heroes and back page zeros. so who's the day ? who's your hero of the day? >> jasmine djokovic . absolutely. >> jasmine djokovic. absolutely. mr djokovic . i am so impressed mr djokovic. i am so impressed by him , not just because he's a by him, not just because he's a fantastic tennis player, but because he stood he stood for what he believed in, his principles . and he has stuck it principles. and he has stuck it to the man by winning and winning and winning all those countries, all those governments that said, we're not having you in you're not in because you're not vaccinated. and he just just continued to do it and has kept winning. and i'm very impressed by him. >> and he's won the argument.
