2:04 am
leads with prime minister. we fly in july talking about the rwanda flights there. the i news has revealed labour's plan to nationalise railways. and finally, the daily star has greasy fry ups will turn us into zombies. and those were front pages. and let's have a closer look at those front pages, starting with the guardian. lewis. >> yes, labour pledges to nationalise rail network within five years. this is in the guardian . and i guess that's. guardian. and i guess that's. i don't know how this is news, because it hasn't happened yet. i guess it's news because they're saying what they're saying. >> it's going to happen within five years. >> within within five years, like the same way we're going to get, you know, people shipped to rwanda. but do you but do you think it's a good idea to nationalise the rail network? it is a good idea. and one of the major complaints is, is no internet, right? this is this is what they're complaining. this is what this woman seriously, one of the major complaints. it
2:05 am
says it right here. it says it says it right here. it says it says it's tethered to your phone. >> i mean, not that i'm somebody to give out, you know, internet advice, paul. >> no, but i mean, the i, i use the, portsmouth to london waterloo line quite a lot. yeah. >> which is not going to help now is it. people are going to attack me. >> yeah, don't , but, the signal >> yeah, don't, but, the signal is terrible . is terrible. >> so it doesn't matter if you tell it to your phone anyway, i think. look, all that aside, i don't think. >> why don't you just download enough internet to last you for the journey? >> yes, but some of the things i want to download are not, for the train, mate. so >> so what i would say is getting back to the story . yeah. getting back to the story. yeah. is that all things have been tried, haven't they? now, we may as well nationalise. i think this is probably a good pledge from labour. it fits in with their union unionist values. but we're essentially, as the public are propping up the railways anyway, wouldn't you say? >> although, i mean, people people make this argument that, you know, the rail rail networks and, you know, in particular
2:06 am
water companies. i mean, it's not it's not a free market because the only way you can you can choose a new, you know, water provider is to move house, which is an impractical way of, you know, changing your water provider and you know, the same. similarly with the rail networks, i mean, they're on rails, they're literally on rails, they're literally on rails . rails. >> well, that's the interesting point, is that you have one train company per train line going in one direction. why not have two? why not say we'll give one train, you know, at the top of the hour, the other train just a complete free for all. >> what could possibly go? >> what could possibly go? >> it works that way with, with flying across the across the world. yeah. you know, you've got different planes going in different . different. >> i would just be good to a one person to blame rather than 16 different operators to blame. i mean, i don't think it's an easy job to run the railways in this country. there at the same standard they were in 1860, which is when they were at their peak. and, and, and it's a zillion dollar project, isn't it? you'd have to revamp the whole thing to get it up to any standard to be matched anywhere
2:07 am
else in europe and across the world. i mean, imagine you look at japan and places like that, the bullet train and all that sort of stuff where zillion years away from that. so i just, you know, bring it in house. why not? >> well, i don't know. i'm, i'm just a bit weary of, of creating a communist state that's just, you know, i'm just i'm going to read some history books anyway. moving on. what have the telegraph got in the front cover? >> paul starmer refuses to match pm's defence budget. now the angle here is primarily from , angle here is primarily from, johnny mercer, which is the veteran minister, and he's saying labour are again are refusing to back our plan to spend 2.5% of gdp on defence. so the conservatives are now setting out their stall. and this actually from , the this actually from, the conservatives perspective in the run up to the general election , run up to the general election, it's quite a strong point. they haven't got any others. to be fair, this is their strong point, however, to be fair to starmer and, you know, don't like to do that too often, but there's going to be a defence spending review. there always is. every four years or whatever it is. and there's going to be one probably within his first tum. also, he's never seen the books. we know that's an old
2:08 am
adage of his, but he hasn't. so what's he going to commit to? what the what the tories are doing is spinning this quite deliciously is they're saying, well, look, there's so much going on in the world. we're saying we're going to support that. you're not going to commit to anything. yeah, i think you'll have to. i mean, we were discussing earlier how he started wandering around the streets of britain with saint george's cross on his back, pretending to be as british as the rest of us. whereas the keir starmer is the one man who can walk around london with a with a saint george's cross on and not get beaten to the ground by the police. exactly. yeah get lifted above. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> told he can just run around on top of statues and lewis. >> i mean it's an improvement from the days of corbyn when never mind the defence budget. you know corbyn was basically like we'll give the defence budget to russia and they can walk in. we welcome the tanks into, into the uk. >> i think that was one of his policies. >> corbyn was successful while corbyn was the shadow leader. whatever successful, i mean whatever . can i whatever successful, i mean whatever. can i finish my. >> you're gonna have to lewis. >> you're gonna have to lewis. >> you're gonna have to lewis. >> you're gonna have is that is that he was successful because there were no attacks by russia on britain during that is a good
2:09 am
point, leo. >> it's a good point, yeah. i don't know what his defence plan was. i think it was just like knitted socks for all or something, wasn't it? i don't know what it was. i that was my biggest problem with corbyn. now a lot of people have a lot problems with corbyn. my biggest problems with corbyn. my biggest problem with corbyn was his. i'm from portsmouth. i understand the navy and how important it is to us as a country and or to portsmouth as a place. absolutely. to portsmouth as a place. but you know, again, what i said, but he never really understood it. yeah. he never really understood it. and this is where people like penny mordaunt, who's the north portsmouth mp, do understand these things. and it will go in tory's favour. however, we don't know what, we don't know what labour are going to do. they're going to have to pledge something. but what they do know, one of the reasons that they're not going to pledge is that in order to increase, you've got to take away from the civil service. yeah. and they're not going to they're not going to commit to any of that at the moment, because, you know, they're going to come in fresh and they're not going to want to do that. yeah. >> okay. well let's move on and
2:10 am
have a look at the times. what have a look at the times. what have they got on the front cover? >> lewis. the times, the times have the horses the horses, it looks like an ad for that. what is that? lloyd's. what is the one, the one with the woman, the black scottish widows. the scottish widows is that the one with the. >> i think lloyds has got the horse. the black horse. >> yeah. the black horse. >> yeah. the black horse. >> yeah. the black horse. >> yeah. but this is i mean it's quite a striking image. it is a, it's a black horse and there's a white horse covered in blood. i assume it's the i assume it's the horse is blood and not the blood of, of english englishmen in. >> well, they said that there were four horses. five horses were four horses. five horses were spooked, were spooked, and, the riders were, were how did they say it? they didn't say. thrown to the ground of rock hard ground. they were dismounted. >> dismounted. yeah. yeah which can be painful. >> it can't be very, very painful . so >> it can't be very, very painful. so that's a that's a good news there i guess. anyway england worst in the world for underage drinking, a third of 11 year olds have been have had alcohol . as study says, middle alcohol. as study says, middle class is normalised, harmful habits. >> i looked into this and
2:11 am
actually, british youths are the best at drinking. we're drinking. >> this is the point, isn't it? this is a good news story. we're top of the league here. our teen, our good news. our teenagers can out drink. anyone in europe and the world. so look , it's not all bad news, is it? no. come on, the times. what are you talking about? england worst for underage drinking. england. the best for underage drinking. and how on earth are we beating scotland? this is what scotland. you know, they feed their babies buck fast , as you know. so buck fast, as you know. so i can't understand how we've managed to top this league. this is a blooming good story, leo. you see, you're glad, the children's liver is getting toughened up for later. >> i mean, it's only normalising harmful habits, but everything we do, i mean, we've been normalising harmful mental health habits since the beginning of the world. this is how you get over it? >> well, i can explain why, why drinking isn't so popular in scotland. it's because of the minimum unit alcohol pricing, which makes alcohol one of the more expensive ways to get fully twisted off your gerd in glasgow. so, you know, the
2:12 am
scottish young people turned to street barbiturates and yeah, horrible, horrible drugs like that to to, dull the pain of living in scotland. instead the last time i said that a children in scotland , took smack, i got in scotland, took smack, i got about six weeks of abuse from people in scotland. >> just one bloke, really. so i'm not going to say that tonight. yeah because i didn't mean it then either. you're din. >> well, fortunately it was just on twitter. >> i mean, imagine if there wasn't a if you were paraded down sauchiehall street with your saint george cross on your back, i wouldn't be here to tell the tale, mate . the tale, mate. >> you got anything to say? >> you got anything to say? >> i, i don't you know , i, >> i, i don't you know, i, i finally, finally was on the front cover of the daily star. >> paul let's get squeeze that one in. >> just days after warning the full english breakfast is dying out. another cheery food boffin says greasy fry ups will turn us into zombies. well here we go. eating highly processed food like fry ups is creating a nafion like fry ups is creating a nation of insomniac zombies
2:13 am
because it's just full of all the nasty stuff that that lewis always talks about. >> yeah, lewis, you've been saying this for years and the boffins on the daily star agree with you. >> no, i don't i don't say this because they're they're what is it, a fry up. fry up is all meat. it's all animal fats. and it's actually good for your sleep. there's beans. >> that's that's not a meat that's bad. >> that's bad. but you could always buy mushrooms. but when i go to my favourite restaurant, wetherspoons, i just ask. i just ask for extra eggs . so wetherspoons, i just ask. i just ask for extra eggs. so this is. this is wrong. luckily, they never give you . this is the. we never give you. this is the. we never give you. this is the. we never get a chance to read this story completely . story completely. >> they never gave us the paper today. >> they never give us the paper. i'm actually i actually believe that the daily star is an imaginary newspaper. >> do you believe? do you believe the eating fry ups is turning us into zombies ? turning us into zombies? >> no, i don't think so. this country, people were very hard working back in the day, and they they had more fry ups back then. they did? >> yeah. i feel like you used to put more effort into your work back in the day. anyway, that's the front pages done. coming up. we've got weapons for ukraine, a
2:14 am
tiktok ban and a charity defends people smugglers. see you
2:15 am
2:16 am
2:17 am
welcome back to headliners i'm leo kearse joined the worst tag team in wwf history lewis schaffer and paul cox and kicking off things in this section with thursday's times and some bad news for vladimir putin, is america finally sends more weapons to help ukraine. lewis. >> yes, that's good news or good news, it's the end of the world. let's send money and kill people . this is joe biden says 95 says $95 billion. that's that's a little bit less than £95 billion aid bill for allies will make the world safer. yeah. that's right. this bomb the hell out of people. >> yeah, but this is air defence and stuff like that, which actually is going to make it's going to make ukraine safer. and also resisting any sort of strongman like putin sends a message to other people like xi jinping and china that if you
2:18 am
invade taiwan, if you go and bully smaller countries, then you know the world will unite for about six months and then get tired and then you can you can finish the job. >> here is the thing. here's the thing, leo. you're so wrong. you're defending. you're defending the ukrainians. the truth is, is that russia is completely destroyed. if you look at russia, they got no access. they got no waterways anymore . they got they got no anymore. they got they got no water. they got no access to the water. they got no access to the water. their all their ports, wonsan, saint petersburg, the other one down in crimea. whatever they are, they creamier river. yeah. they don't, they don't. they're not these russians. i feel for them. well, so they can't go for fish . so they can't go for fish. >> i mean, what's the what's the problem with that? maybe if they if they wanted access to the sea pearl, they should they shouldn't have start a war with another country. >> i mean, i'm curious to know, in all seriousness, what a victory for the ukraine looks like now. but i think you i think you believe you understand what that is. i assume you believe that it's all ground that's been stolen to be given back. but we're at a point now where this is 95 billion, and i
2:19 am
kind of understand. i've always beenin kind of understand. i've always been in support of the ukraine. however, i kind of understand why people , particularly in the why people, particularly in the states, are getting quite tired now because all they really see is the headlines. leo, you know the stuff, right? you're immersed in it, you understand it, you understand the value of it. if you step back from this slightly, all you really see is endless billions going towards. >> all right. well, they're not actually getting the money. so, you know, of course it doesn't get sent the money, it gets sent basically mothballed kit that's just sitting in the desert doing nothing. so you've got these bradleys, all these, you know, all this kit that you know is good. and a lot of, a lot of, ammunition, artillery shells. that's expiring. so it can't be used anyway. so instead of paying used anyway. so instead of paying to decommission it and bury it somewhere, they're sending it to ukraine to, to be, you know, fired at a russian aggressor. >> so are they inflating the value? >> and the other thing, you know, just to put these, these sums into perspective. so the $95 billion, i mean, it sounds like a huge amount of money that's not just for ukraine, that's not just for ukraine, that's also for taiwan and israel and other other places.
2:20 am
and to put that into perspective, i mean, we're talking about sort of 5% of the us military budget they're spending, you know, every year, 5% of the us, the us military budget to completely humiliate and destroy and wear down their their greatest geopolitical foes. so it's incredible value for money without risking a single american life. and also the amount of money we invest and spend on net zero. europe has pledged ,1 trillion to net zero, which is just an absolute nonsense. it's not going to. we don't have. i mean, climate change might be happening. it's not going to come and shoot us and rape our wives. leo. >> leo, this doesn't don't laugh at him. leo. this doesn't mean it's money well spent. it's like they're saying $91 billion here. $91 billion there. after all, you're talking about real money. yeah, it's. this is real money. maybe maybe it is true. the fact is, what the democrats are doing is, what the democrats are doing is that democrats are the party of war. i hate to say it, but
2:21 am
trump, when trump was in power, trump, when trump was in power, trump funded ukraine. >> trump was the first american president to send munitions in a large you know, after after, crimea fell. yeah. trump is the was a staunch supporter of ukraine and he's only flipped because it suits him politically i >> -- >> no, that's not why he's flipped. yes it is. he has flipped. yes it is. he has flipped . he's flipped. yes it is. he has flipped. he's i flipped. yes it is. he has flipped . he's i don't even know flipped. he's i don't even know why he's flipped. i just had so you're so contrarian. >> you don't you just gotta say no . 110. >> no. >> you know what? i'm having another beer. >> oh, you're not having a bad show. >> come on, mate, here's here's what i'm thinking. the democrats world war one was a democratic president. world war ii was a democratic president. so what is the issue? >> democrats can win wars . >> democrats can win wars. >> democrats can win wars. >> they can, they can great guys. they can win wars. they haven't won war since the 1940s. korea, you just name two wars. they won. korea was democrats. vietnam was democrats. iraq. well, iraq wasn't, but okay. >> and afghanistan anyway, more times now and the clock is ticking for tiktok paul. >> it is us will ban tiktok
2:22 am
unless chinese owners sells up . unless chinese owners sells up. so tiktok has about 170 million american users fuelling data and national security concerns. and this has been something that's rumbled along for a while. and that's 170 million american that's170 million american users. there are plenty of millions in the uk and europe and beyond. and if we take out the danger for a moment, i always find this quite fascinating, a fascinating juxtaposition, because at no time in history has it been so easy to infiltrate popular youth culture in particular. so tiktok is this wonderful, addictive social media app for those who don't use it. very short videos giving you the information you want quickly. bright colours, naked women, whatever you want. and it's kind of unfettered by, by the west, really, in many respects they don't have the same tiktok in china, and that's the issue . the issue. >> so the social media in china, they're equivalent. if you open it, you're a chinese 14 year old or whatever, you open it. it's
2:23 am
all like lessons in algebra and family values. instead of over here, it's people trying to convince you to be a gender queer communist and have a have a sex change. >> but that's always been that way in this in this country, in america. and the truth is, is that we're doing all right. we're doing all right, being genderqueer or whatever. you said the point is, is that what they want to do is they want to basically control us. they don't even realise it . it's all about even realise it. it's all about control. and, yeah, i mean , i control. and, yeah, i mean, i mean, it does sort of it does sort of set a precedent where they could then go and shut down other social media platforms that they decide they don't like. >> you know, in brazil, they're, they've, they've mooted shutting down, twitter. >> yeah. yeah. this is the this is why i talk about the juxtaposition, because on one hand, you've got free speech. and, you know, we're all advocates of free speech here. and the idea that you can take something like this and just close it down goes against most of our principles. however, what a great way to infiltrate us.
2:24 am
what a great way to attack us, to use our own free speech against us, but also a lot of the data or the vast majority of the data or the vast majority of the data or the vast majority of the data that we're being told is being taken from us via tiktok and given to china. >> you can just buy it's accessible, it's commercially available. >> is china making tiktoks? they're not. so it's the american people . like you're american people. like you're right. yeah. >> so the china's just given them the tools for self destruction. it's like digital fentanyl. >> there's no tools. if it wasn't tiktok they'd use something else they would use. they got the same thing on youtube and whatever that other one is okay. >> we've got the express next. and a french charity boss says that people smugglers save lives instead of put lives at risk. do these people live in opposite world? louis. yeah, this is french charity. boss makes outrageous claim. people smugglers save hundreds of lives a day. this is in whatever newspaper this is. if he express the express , of course. it's the express, of course. it's horrible to take advantage of that. that and take the money. this is what they're saying about people struggling. but if
2:25 am
i if it weren't for people, for the smugglers, we would have hundreds of deaths every year. it's like. it's like it's like he's basically saying that people would try and rule the boats or guide the boats themselves across the channel. >> and the smugglers have more experience so they can get the boats across the channel. but as we saw tragically yesterday , we saw tragically yesterday, this is this isn't true. and the people smugglers, i believe the boat got stuck in a sandbank. well, it's yeah, it's incredibly clumsy language. >> and we have to understand that this was translated. he didn't say this in english. he said this in french. so maybe there's some nuance. misses missed. but one thing he is missing is it is the smugglers that set literally the direction of travel. the smugglers are it's in their best interest for those. his point is there's always immigrants. so at least some of these, smugglers understand the dangers and they're going to help overcome them. maybe as some sort of risk mitigation. of course, there's a bit of a nonsense. what they're actually saying is, they're saying, come here, come here, come here, pay us, pay us, pay us, and we'll try and get you. they don't care whether they get across or not. exactly >> he's trying to make them sound like they're some sort of,
2:26 am
you know, guardian advertised consult kc helping people, you know, holding their hand and making sure they cross safely and they're not. the money's paid the money, and they cram as many people onto a dangerous french. >> and the french want these people to leave france. they want to leave france. but at the at the end of the day, they could find out when these boats are leaving, who's manning the boats? there's so much that everybody could do. they don't want to do it. >> okay, well, moving on to the guardian . and a politician has guardian. and a politician has suggested that we stop actively helping people to illegally enter our country. assume people are furious about this poll. >> are they are. and i think it's largely because of the angle he took. don't rescue people who scupper their channel boats, says reform uk deputy, who of course is ben habib , who of course is ben habib, often someone who appears on this channel and he says neither or both. he thought navy or border force should not save people who throw themselves into the sea if they refuse. other vessels . and this is this is vessels. and this is this is happening quite often. and his actual words were if they choose to scupper that dinghy, then yes , they have to suffer the consequences of their actions
2:27 am
because these are these are people crossing the channel who slash the boat and, you know, jettison the boat to get source, to force the navy to save them, to force the navy to save them, to put the navy in the position where they have to save them. now, i understand his position, of course i do. immigration, and particularly this type of immigration is a significant problem for us, but there's no way we're not going to rescue them. okay, so if someone does that, you know, let's not forget both us and the french are not going to allow that to happen. it would be it would be incredibly remiss and inhumane to do so. so the reason they're doing it is they're taking advantage of our good nature once again. and i'm glad we have that good nature. there's probably people watching this show now who think i'm mad and think we should probably just let them drown in the sea. maybe ben habib even thinks that i'm not saying that he does, but i don't. i think we have to rescue this. >> how do we. how do we stop people exploiting the soft bailey of britain? >> you. you don't let them into france. you don't let them come into the. whatever something has to has to be done. this is i mean, i'm not going to say they should die. no one should die. it's a horrible thing. they're
2:28 am
not going to be let to die. but but you could but you could stop these boats and you don't. and you could just say, listen, you're not coming onto this, into this island. you're not coming under. >> take them back to france. would seem to be, you know, an acceptable thing where they get saved. but they also don't progress. so then they stop trying. >> they stop coming. also what they could do is they could they could stop them beforehand. they could stop them beforehand. they could hang out in the where the quy's could hang out in the where the guy's going around saying, i'm look, anybody want to go to france? and they could find out who the guy is and not that i believe it's one guy. this is this, this problem . why are we this, this problem. why are we even discussing this? this has been going on too long. this is as long as my first still going on. >> okay, well, that's the first half of the show. out of the way. in the second half, we've got a school not banning the hijab. and victoria beckham has made fat people so angry. the nearly dropped their
2:29 am
2:30 am
2:31 am
welcome back to headliners and kicking off with thursday's
2:32 am
mirror. and a school in london is in trouble for defying the iranian morality police. paul. >> yeah . okay, so, school head >> yeah. okay, so, school head teacher apologises after ban the huab teacher apologises after ban the hijab sign. put up in playground for art project. now i'll get into this a little bit more detail because you're probably thinking what on earth is going on here? and it's an absolute nonsense, really. richard paul, headteacher of greatfield school in barking, east london, condemned the sign as ill judged decision made by a year ten students. so first of all, he's chucked his own student under the bus. richard paul, you should be ashamed of yourself. he said. the banner was tied up in the playground, on the playground fence as part of an art project, and did not represent the views of the school. it's art. first of all, this is an art installation , this is an art installation, right? so this is this is the sort of thing you may have seen at a protest. so the artist who was in year ten, which is a 14 or 15 year old kid, and this head teacher has thrown him under the bus straight away. what an idiot. and it would, it was just depicted in the background of an image. and this
2:33 am
is art. this is what it does. art is there to shock or or impress whatever. that's what people. and if you are offended in any way by this, you should probably go to prison. but you shouldn't just go to prison. this person, look at this one person. the person didn't take the metropolitan police and the mayor of london, sadiq khan, adding please ensure all children are safe. of course they're safe. you, wally the police, they want the police to go round and arrest a child for doing an art project. >> why is it an art project? it's not. it doesn't look like an art project. what makes it an art project? it's because the guy said it was an art project. >> yeah, that's what art is these days. it can be anything. it's any statement. it's like, you know, he's making some some sort of statement. it's a sign that says ban the ban the hijab. and it's great to see. so many left wing agitators and self—appointed stasi coming out to support an item of clothing that subjugates women. >> but who says that it is an art project? who says that it is? he said it's an art project. >> it was part of an art teacher. >> it can offend somebody. and. and the kid should know. he should have known this. if he's
2:34 am
if he's 15 years old, right? 15. yeah. about that. if he's 15 and he doesn't know this, then then he's in trouble. >> what's wrong with kids offending people? kids are supposed to offend people, especially 15 year olds. like hot headed teenagers . hot headed teenagers. >> yeah, yeah, they they they should they should offend people, but not if it's going to get them killed. >> it'sjust get them killed. >> it's just part of an art project, isn't it? >> i mean, i think the real issue is people shouldn't kill kids, not the, you know, this this kid's been threatened, but, you know, you can't. people shouldn't go around in fear that if they offend people, they'll be killed. louis. >> they they shouldn't , but they >> they they shouldn't, but they should know better. >> and that's a debate . i don't >> and that's a debate. i don't disagree with that. but the idea that the idea that a head teacher, a grown man with two first names as a full name, richard, richard, paul , be richard, richard, paul, be ashamed yourself. come out and just blame it. oh, you ashamed yourself. come out and just blame it . oh, you know, it just blame it. oh, you know, it was a mistake made by year ten student. yeah. this is the thing he is. yeah. look at him. get him! get him. and you know, this is a much more serious issue because it goes back to things
2:35 am
like batley doesn't it. where the where the teacher has had to go into hiding. >> so richard, that's what he's thinking about. >> so richard, that's what he's thinking about . you hit the nail thinking about. you hit the nail on the head. he's thinking about this. he's thinking, am i going to have to be hiding for the next three years? because because of some ten year, ten, 15 year old kid put up a thing. he he put it, you know, listen , he he put it, you know, listen, basically, we're at war. there's a war going on and people don't even know it. okay? >> we've got the times next, and we're staying with the with the art world and it's got the sad news that nobody wants to sponsor the turner prize . sponsor the turner prize. probably because modern art is rubbish. >> louis. yeah, this is the art of the deal. it says. it says turner prize struggles to find , turner prize struggles to find, sponsors. and this is the this is the very famous turner prize, which which needs £55,000 in order to give out the prizes that they said they were going to give out the prizes. they've only collected 50, £30,000 so far. and, and, and you know, the basically it's not much the if theyif basically it's not much the if they if he had put it in this,
2:36 am
it could have been perceived as being art, but it's not. and there were it was part of an art project. >> so i mean, i think if it's part of an art project, yeah. then you can say it's art and, you know, the turner prize doesn't seem to be any more of any more artistic merit than no, it doesn't project . it doesn't project. >> the four nominees are all ethno, ethno diverse people. >> did you ? >> did you? >> did you? >> yeah. i didn't know what to say. how would you like the art? >> lewis? it's 2024. >> lewis? it's 2024. >> yeah, they're all. they're all of them. 442411 is one represents the sikh community. one represents black women. one was born in the philippines, and the other guy's got a funny name. >> so, so . >> so, so. »- >> so, so. >> this genius. the point of this is, though, is that, you know, this is. isn't this isn't go woke, go broke. this is go safe. no one wants to invest. yeah. and the thing is, that's the trouble with art now, right? yeah. we've got to a point where
2:37 am
it's. it's not art. should be political. i have no issue with political. i have no issue with political art. and it can go for whichever way it likes, but it only falls one way, particularly when it comes to the turner prize. there's no there's no right wing art in there. he's a year ten student down the road to get that kid in. they do exactly stick it in the wall. exactly. but it's expected to be safe. and what people don't want from art is safety. >> exactly . >> exactly. >> exactly. >> who wants safety from us? oh, it it agrees with everything. i agree with what you imagine that. imagine if that was your favourite band. my favourite bandis favourite band. my favourite band is everything i like. buy everything i like. >> so what are you saying ? >> so what are you saying? you're saying. you're saying art shouldn't be saved. you say maybe the painting should fall off. >> well, some art could be saved, but this is just safe. but it should be the sort of people who get offended. >> conceptually unsafe. >> conceptually unsafe. >> yeah, yeah, i don't mean it should fall. should fall off the wall and slash someone's throat, but that's a good point. >> anyway, moving on to the mail. and fat activists are furious with victoria beckham for not making clothes for fat people. that's gotta be a tough job being a fat activist, paul.
2:38 am
if you get too active, you might stop being fat. >> i knew it was coming my way. oh right. okay. victoria beckham's debut collection with mango doesn't mean anything to me. has received backlash online for lack of size inclusivity, so it only goes up to size 14. despite the retailer's main collection ranging up to 26. oh, this is me. this is. this is big. yeah. this. yeah. exactly. yeah. three man tent. so i mean, this is high fashion, though, isn't it? this is high fashion. and it's like the models who sell them. of course, the buy is very nation, very nice, they just. thank you very much, mate. it's exclusionary. that's what i'm trying to get to. high fashion modelling beauty. it's exclusionary . victoria, if it exclusionary. victoria, if it wasn't, then asda. george would sell it. that's the point, isn't it? i don't have any issue with this. >> i didn't read this because it's not exclusionary. it's price is from from £50 to £300, which is high for me. but yeah, but it's not that much. so she's not spending and the truth, i don't mean the money, i mean the
2:39 am
size. the size. no, you didn't mean the size. >> yeah i did yeah. yeah that's what the whole story is about. >> yeah. about it's too expensive. >> so now i don't mean the money. i mean, it could be expensive and actually up to £300. you're right. it's quite inclusive. but i think high fashion is designed to fit on model shaped people. sorry, louis. >> exactly. and they've designed this stuff to look good on a certain type of person. probably the sort of person who looks a lot like victoria beckham. so, you know, you can't expect that to suddenly scale out to, you know, some sort of land whale and also also it's size. >> it's size is 4 to 16. 16 is quite a large size for a woman. >> i thought you were going to i thought you're going to be contrarian. i'll tell you what is wrong. size four is wrong. >> why? what size is that? >> why? what size is that? >> that's like. that isn't it? that's like a peperami. >> all right. no it's not. >> all right. no it's not. >> what is it like ? >> what is it like? >> what is it like? >> it isn't. because. because the four is now is now. there's tremendous inflation. >> it's like the top of my arm. >> it's like the top of my arm. >> yeah. no it could be i looked it up i looked it up 16. it's like that's how you got in trouble, mate. >> looking up there to find out in the next break. anyway, more
2:40 am
daily mail now. and while conservative voters are getting older across the atlantic, trump voters are getting younger. louis. yes yes, trump voters are getting younger, dailymail.com poll reveals that 40 is the new 50 for switching from joe biden to former president. >> that's a bit complicated. basically, it says that the people that the people who like trump are much younger than they were they in 2018 when he ran, they were they were about 2016, 2016, they were 55 years old. yeah. >> those those the average age that people tipped over from supporting biden and to supporting biden and to supporting trump . supporting trump. >> yeah, that's a complicated way of saying it. their average age is 55 and now it's 40. so basically donald trump is getting the younger votes. yeah. and they say basically because he's so much younger than biden, he's so much younger than biden, he's three years younger. >> i don't think it's got anything to do with they're both old men aren't they. >> that was making it a little oh sorry. >> i mean, it's got a lot more to do with the fact that biden has spent four years. biden it's
2:41 am
not biden, is it? he's not in charge of anything. the democrats have spent four years appealing to youth culture. yeah. and you know , 40 year olds yeah. and you know, 40 year olds don't care about pronouns. they care about the economy and the cost of living and how they can how they can improve their life. and it doesn't matter if, if people can be whatever gender they want to be, stop ramming it down our throat and just fix the economy. yeah that's what this is. >> although, i mean, some young people have certainly drifted away from the democrat party and drifted away from biden because of his stance on israel. he's been a staunch supporter of israel , and been a staunch supporter of israel, and that's that's certainly sir davey you can see it in the in the protests on university campuses. lewis. >> well , we university campuses. lewis. >> well, we don't university campuses. lewis. >> well , we don't know. i don't >> well, we don't know. i don't know what's going on there. i think i think i'll tell you what's going on with the young people protesting against biden for supporting israel. and i just reveal i haven't been paying just reveal i haven't been paying attention to that. it's just bad. it's just bad news. we're all doomed when i see that happening. i remember when i was young , when i happening. i remember when i was young, when i was young, and we used to protest and we, you know, we were just a bunch of idiots. >> you behind the wheel?
2:42 am
>> you behind the wheel? >> yeah. ban the wheel. bring back fire. >> it's not that they don't. they don't like biden. and biden is even the president. the president is barack obama and michelle obama. those are the president. those are real. not even the real president. they're being told what to do. yeah, biden is so illuminati vie somebody. >> aliens, lizard people. i think i think you'd make an amazing president, lewis. >> and you've played a president , haven't you? >> i didn't play, i played a senator. i played a sleazy senator. i played a sleazy senator in a gal gadot film. yeah. amazing. yeah, amazing . yeah. amazing. yeah, amazing. did you notice me there? >> well, we've got one last section to go. we've got the second sad horse story of the day. and which foods are worst for

2:47 am
of a horse. yeah. and it's gone up about £1,000. yeah. it's gone up about £1,000. yeah. it's gone up 20. >> roughly, roughly. i was surprised to , to learn that it's surprised to, to learn that it's only £6,000 a year to have horse. >> and the question is, are these people less than a car? are these people middle class by american standards, which means they have a certain amount of money? or are they middle class because they're not in the royalty, they're just slightly above poor in the middle class by british standards. >> so they've got shoes and cutlery. yeah >> and they know how to use both. well, we don't need to use shoes or culture. >> sorry. the point the point is, is that that almost half of most of the homeowner , most of most of the homeowner, most of the most of the horse owners have made personal sacrifices to keep their horses. what, like what we don't know. >> well, they've they've cut back on other things . so maybe back on other things. so maybe they, you know, they get a cheaper brand of breakfast cereal or a cheaper brand of faberge egg. >> yeah. all i know is this is i blame the jews. >> okay, well, we don't do that on this show, is it not the jews? i'd just like to clarify
2:48 am
for anybody watching lewis is jewish jewish comedian, so don't take that seriously . anyway, take that seriously. anyway, moving on. we've got the daily star now, apparently robots are getting so smart they can tell which squares contain traffic lights . pop. lights. pop. >> i know i'm not a robot. captcha questions getting harder as a! bots get smarter. so companies have to create increasingly more difficult captcha captures as bots technology advances so it can solve security riddles. and they were saying that, you know, under the old sort of, you know, the traffic lights and all that sort of stuff, mountains and fire hydrants and all that nonsense. yeah. ai robots now are able to do this 100% of the time. it's no trouble to them. so i'm going to come up with a quirkier and quirkier things. have you ever used any of these things, louis, when you get in the old, saga holiday , have the old, saga holiday, have i used the captcha things? >> is that what you're saying? is that the question on the enter? bob, you don't have to make it seem like we're talking to each other. paul, i don't like you know, like, you know
