gb news. >> very good evening. you're watching and listening to gb news. i'm sam francis . the news. i'm sam francis. the headunes news. i'm sam francis. the headlines at exactly 11:00. another of rishi sunaks mps has detected to labour today. the defected to labour today. the second in under two weeks. natalie elphicke announced her decision in just two minutes before prime minister's questions this afternoon. the dover mp said rishi sunaks government is chaotic and claimed that labour has changed. dan poulter made the same switch less than a fortnight ago over the government's handling of the nhs. however, downing street has brushed off questions about whether the prime minister is concerned , reaffirming that concerned, reaffirming that rishi sunak is focused on the priorities of the british people. two men have been arrested and hundreds have been evacuated after a bomb squad was deployed to a village in south yorkshire . police say their yorkshire. police say their focus of the operation is a disused church building and adjoining house in grimethorpe. after the discovery of a number of suspicious items there, emergency services and explosives truck and an army

robot remain at the scene tonight. roads within a 60 metre cordon are also still closed, with members of the public being asked to avoid the area for at least the next 72 hours. we've also heard tonight that the three men have been arrested on suspicion of terror offences following raids at four addresses in bolton and wigan . addresses in bolton and wigan. the suspects, aged 35, 36 and 51, were arrested at separate locations accused of commissioning, preparing and instigating acts of terrorism. greater manchester police say though they don't believe there is any wider threat to the pubuc is any wider threat to the public linked to tonight's arrests. in other news, a couple who committed serial dine and dash offences racking up large bills for food and drink before leaving without paying, have today admitted five joint charges of fraud. 41 year old bernard mcdonnell and his wife anne, who's 39, avoided bills worth nearly £1,200 during their eating sprees over a period of eight months. the first venue

they fled from in swansea , says they fled from in swansea, says it's delighted the justice has finally caught up with the couple after that restaurant lost £300. the pair , from port lost £300. the pair, from port talbot, will be sentenced later this month . lord david cameron this month. lord david cameron says the uk has sent an unequivocal message by expelling a russian defence attache over claims he's a spy. the home office says it's part of a series of sanctions against moscow aimed at dismantling the kremlin's intelligence gathering operations . the russian embassy operations. the russian embassy in the uk, though, says the new measures are groundless and the reasons given for them are ridiculous . well, last month was ridiculous. well, last month was the hottest april ever recorded in britain, continuing a streak of record breaking temperatures for the 11th month. scientists say that europe is warming at a faster rate than anywhere else due to climate change caused, they say, by humans. and experts suggest with greenhouse gases still increasing, temperatures will continue going up and breaking new records . and breaking new records. and finally, prince harry has been

celebrating the 10th anniversary of the invictus games today with family , friends and veterans at family, friends and veterans at saint paul's cathedral. the duke of sussex gave a reading in front of representatives from participating nations, and some sick and injured service personnel and veterans. meanwhile, the king was holding his first garden party of the season at buckingham palace . but season at buckingham palace. but despite being less than two miles apart, we've been told the monarch's full programme means the pair won't be seeing each other during prince harry's short visit to the uk this week . short visit to the uk this week. that's the latest from the newsroom. for more, you can sign up to gb news alerts. just scan the qr code on your screen or go to gb news. common alerts. now, though, it's time for headliners i >> -- >> hello and welcome to headliners. i'm nik dixon and spnngis headliners. i'm nik dixon and spring is in the air. but you know what else is in the air.7 news. know what else is in the air? news. so let's crack on and

introduce our panel. tonight we have the people's gammon. paul cox.look have the people's gammon. paul cox. look at him. there he is. and the people's gaiman scott capurro that's i'm so sorry. >> yeah, it doesn't work. did you plan that? no, no. that was on the plan . someone else told on the plan. someone else told me to say it in my ear, i guess. yeah, but i knew it would upset you slightly. but just because it's so bad. yeah, because it's so bad. but scott. but you were accused of homophobia recently, weren't you? i was, yeah, there's a hate crime posted about me in islington. yeah about me in islington. yeah about during my act, apparently, someone thought that i was being homophobic. >> i know i find that research that's like accusing paul of not talking about his garden enough. >> i mean, it just wouldn't. i know. and the police called the club and said, oh, there's a hate crime, homophobic. and they told the club owner who? and the guy said, well, he's not here, but his husband is. well, can you tell his husband he's homophobic? that's true conversation. they're like, okay, we'll let him know. and then they said, well, what happens now? and the police are like, well, we don't know nothing. >> i guess not every day you get to say that. are you still homophobic, paul i am, yeah. i'm

getting worse, if anything. yeah, yeah. okay. good well, we'll look forward to that. let's have a quick look, though, at thursday's front pages. so the daily mail has labour willing to pander to sectarianism. that is a claim of the tory chairman will be getting into that in a minute. the times starmer splits party by accepting tory defector the guardian. scientists despair amid forecast of at least 2.5 centigrade temperature rise. the telegraph cameron eu must be tougher on russia. the i has interest rate can't save sunak amid defection row . and finally amid defection row. and finally the daily star. the end of the plonkers, which is about zuma's retiring, certain beloved insults and those of your front pages. insults and those of your front pages . so, paul, what are the pages. so, paul, what are the times going with today ? times going with today? >> starmer splits labour by accepting defector, which is natalie elphicke. >> for those who aren't aware, sir keir starmer is facing a backlash from senior labour figures and female mps for allowing right wing conservative natalie elphicke to join the party, right wing , just because party, right wing, just because she's a tory, i think, and also

because she's defended her husband when he was accused of sexual assault against two women. what's weird about this story? for me is that from what i can understand, she doesn't seem to be running at the next election, so she seems to be doing it for, shizzle and giggles for all i can understand here. and defecting now to tories just all mentally wondering whether it's in the ofcom list of a jewish law firm they got there. yeah. >> you know you're right. she's not running. and i think that she's been told she can have a post in some way consulting the labour party on housing, like trying to explain how they're going to build 1.3 million homes in the next five years, get a hammer and some nails, natalie, and start hammering. >> that's like, yeah, well, a cynic would say the parties are the same anyway, so it's quite easy to just transition from one branch of the uni party to the other one far left party to another is how i would put it. >> the green party is different though. >> they're even further left and completely insane. they're based in gaza now, for a start. yes. and they and they they like to shout allahu akbar. and i remember when they talked about

the whales, not so much anymore, but yeah, i mean, she called sir keir starmer sir softy in the past. not the greatest trumpian insulting in the pants, sir. >> softy. >> softy. >> no, just like just like a soft guy. >> oh, right. >> oh, right. >> yeah, not the pants. that would be much better. this goes out at 5 am. and she wanted. she claimed he wanted an open borders immigration policy. that's. that's the same as the tories. so probably just walk across the aisle to labourers like when comedians now become straight comedians, become bi cunous straight comedians, become bi curious so they can keep working, you know? >> so i'm definitely by that. i see a lot of that. you do. >> you know, i accidentally brushed against a friend in, you know, 96. >> now i need to get on this queer gig work. >> yeah, that's true, because you're going to be out of a job if you're a tory. so it's like, do you know what? i've always liked labour. i do. i also like money jobs. >> again, she's not running for post. i think she's really just doing it to anger her co—workers. right. although the other guy in the aisle, the other guy in the aisle, the other guy, dan poulter, wasn't it the doctor? >> he he is. he is he actually going to have a seat? i don't understand how it all works. i'm. i just do this for

living. >> no one ever considers the constituents in any of this, though, did they? >> i mean, all these constituents who will think of the constituents. but they all voted for a conservative mp. >> and then they go, no, no, no, no, we should have got a completely different political philosophy now. >> it's like, whoa, whoa, awkward. and does she call people or tell them in her constituency or emailing everybody like, look what i've done. i've changed. i've changed my mind. change your mind. she should just quit altogether. yeah, that's what she should do. >> yeah, that's a good point. rachel reeves apparently told her to f off in the past, so that's going to be an awkward first day, isn't it? yeah, yeah. oh, well, what about the, daily mail going with scott? >> well, they're talking about laboun >> well, they're talking about labour. are willing to pander to sectarian sectarianism. nailed it, i sound drunk, britain is at risk of being taken over by dangerous sectarian politics. the tory chairman warned last night. richard holden accused labour of exploiting the middle east conflict to win votes. although i don't think labour did that. i think what they did actually was they lost some votes because they aren't protesting against israel and gaza enough. i think that's what's actually happening. well, i think the opposite of what he's claiming is happening. but what is kind of going on is i

think labour lost some of their party members to the green party and other parties. >> yeah, yeah, it's more like they're about to pander. i mean, starmer changed his language slightly. the muslim vote is leaving. he's visiting like harlow five times to try and keep them on board. but he changed his tone slightly about the ceasefire. i don't know. he hasn't pandered yet. i feel like he's about to pan. >> i think he's more do students vote? i think he's more worried about the young vote because i don't think the muslim population can be brushed with any, any, any, any wide swathe of anything . i think i think of anything. i think i think that a lot of people live in this country are as opposed to what's going on in being driven by the palestinian government as as other people are. but i think young people seem to be drawn to this issue because it seems to sort of give them a voice that they neglected. yeah, i think they neglected. yeah, i think they felt ignored before at university level. i think everyone's picking this up as sort of a something that they can promote themselves with. >> yeah, they're projecting onto it. what do you think, paul? well he's playing a he's running

walking on a fine line here because he sees himself as the next prime minister, like the rest of us do. so he knows when he enters into geopolitics that that he needs to have certain opinions. and this isn't there are there are plenty of people not backing the ceasefire out there. so he's having to step back and act prime ministerial. >> but at the same time , he's >> but at the same time, he's losing some of his grass roots. >> like scott rightly says, the student vote because they don't know what. they don't know what they're talking about. they're just going with the current thing. nick. yeah, well, yes , i thing. nick. yeah, well, yes, i mean, he he is going to be made easier for him if this rafa thing carries on because it's going to be more unpopular to back israel. so maybe we'll get out of it. but knowing the sort of far left, they'll probably say, well, he didn't back it early enough. you know, he was too pro—israel early on, so they'll probably never forgive him. and so now he's got this constant wing of his party to worry about. i don't believe that the far left are much of an issue to keir starmer anymore, though he has been successful by eradicating the far left from laboun >>i laboun >> i mean, all corbynites of momentum are now gone, to some degree, and in doing so, he's made them a more central party,

which has given him, i mean, obviously the tories are capitulated and become more labour than labour, etc, etc. the locals local elections. >> i know they can't map perfectly onto their general, but they, they indicate some people are going to lib dems and green and so on. let's see anyway, either way, he's not my prime minister. i just want to say that let's do the cover of the telegraph then. paul. yeah. cameron eu must be tougher on russia. sorry, i just thought just just switch on zanzibar. oh, no. >> someone i just checked, it could have been hungry. i don't know, lord cameron, of course, most famous for pigs , much like most famous for pigs, much like myself, we'll call on europe to be tougher and more assertive in the face of russian and chinese aggression in major foreign policy. >> and we have to tread carefully here, really, don't we? because really and truly, the only way to become tougher is to fight for eu and great britain to be any tougher. they would have to fight what he's what he's actually saying is they need to maintain the spend to help ukraine out because , in to help ukraine out because, in the bigger picture, that's the way to solve these problems, because if we end up with russia and china taking the lead on

these things, then we will end up taking it back for and we won't be able to lead geopolitic in the way we'd like to. i mean, this is where you need leo kearse because for me, i still can't get my head around why we would continue so vehemently to just spend, spend, spend. when doesit just spend, spend, spend. when does it when does it end? now leo would step in and say, well, we don't actually hand over any money. we give them decrepit old weapons, but it's the optics of it, isn't it? if you look in the states, they are they are giving billions. we're giving hundreds of millions in total , apparently of millions in total, apparently it's not real money. it's just, you know, we just take stuff out of storage and we lend it to the ukraine. but i'm not sure where this ends. and i, we have a different mentality in a different mentality in a different culture to russia and china as well. well, i think a lot of people are saying, though, that we need to step up nato spending and get more realistic and tough, and that's one thing cameron is saying we need to go from 2% to 2.5% across, you know, european members of nato, trump's already ahead of them. he's already said 3% is going to be 3. so there's still still behind. what do you

think, scott? >> well, i just it upsets me when rishi sunak is quoted in this article as saying an authority in an axis of authoritarian states made up of russia, china, iran and north korea, you know, i just russia and china are both on the un security council. so i'm never quite sure what team he's playing here. is he agreeing with them on the security council, and has he talked to them about what's going on in them about what's going on in the middle east? i mean, do these people talk at all? do they have any conversation whatsoever before they start hurling abuse at one another? you know, i just i expect them to be a bit more diplomatic. >> most people have blocked, cameron's number because of the whole referendum. yeah. well, okay. scott in minus 30s. what about the daily star? oh, right, the daily star, —30, yeah. and the daily star, —30, yeah. and the end of the plonkers plus the gits, the which the numpties and even the burkes. apparently some of the best words in the english language , like plonker and git language, like plonker and git are dying out because young plonkers and gits don't know what they mean. so i think some young people, the language changes all the time, doesn't it 7 changes all the time, doesn't it ? and they're afraid of using

words their grandparents used in daily conversations , so they daily conversations, so they just don't use them. >> they're not afraid of saying gammon, are they? no i get accused of that. that's why i've adopted them. >> but it's just kind of an idiot that would get me. >> yeah, a plonker could be quite rude. i mean, they just bafic quite rude. i mean, they just basic ways of saying swear words on the bbc. and do you know what hasn't died out in my house? i'll get a good 15 plonkers in a week and we'll find out tonight what ofcom thinks of all of those words. but that is the front page is dealt with and coming

welcome back to headliners. i'm nick dixon, still here with paul cox and scott capurro, who's been doing his instagram stories in the break. here we go. let's cut to them. why not? and let's do the times then. and astrazeneca have withdrawn their questionable covid vaccine. all i can say is damn, it feels good to be a pureblood. paul. well, i'm not, unfortunately, astrazeneca is. no i'm not. i'll

explain that in a minute. yeah. that's, i had straight hair before, astrazeneca is withdrawing its covid 19 vaccine worldwide, citing surplus available surplus of available updated vaccines since the pandemic , the european pandemic, the european commission withdrew this. i wasn't aware of this. he withdrew the marketing or, authorised in march and it went into action on tuesday this week. and according to the independent, estimates , over 6.5 independent, estimates, over 6.5 million lives were saved. i think that would be brought into question in the first year of the use alone. and over 3 billion doses were supplied globally. globally. what's not mentioned in this story and what's not mentioned enough? i think, is the covid vaccine injuries as a result of particularly vaccines like astrazeneca. and you know what, if you make that stuff taboo, then all you're going to do is fuel the fires, because there are quite clearly, even if there was 1 or 2 cases of severe injury as a result of the covid

vaccine, particularly astrazeneca, we should be talking about why understanding why we shouldn't be hiding it now. it's four years, three years since the vaccine, but four years since covid. and you know, i've got this stuff flowing through my body. i do have it. i do have a dose of atrazine aka in there, you know. so sorry to hear that. sorry, mate. yeah. i mean, yeah, they admitted they were rare side effects as they called them. finally and i just think, you know, as a friend of mine put it on ex today, no one regrets not having the vaccine. never met anyone who regrets not having it. that's just my personal opinion. it's not the view of gb news or anyone. scott, what do you think? >> well, i guess a thrombosis, a blood clots are one of the side effects of astrazeneca, but they're saying it has nothing to. that's not why we're withdrawing. it has nothing to do. look away. i'm you know, i, i got the double dose in california and i'm still angry at myself . at myself. >> it doesn't seem like you, scott. you seem iconoclastic . scott. you seem iconoclastic. >> i wanted to travel. i wanted to go back to yoga class, and my husband was getting it and everyone was getting it. and then a friend of mine made my appointment for me, so i just

showed up and it was so exciting. and everybody lined up and look at us all joining in together. and i just, oh, i'm such a fool, you know? i've met several people on the road in europe and in the us. many, many people have side effects, mostly blood diseases. and i'm i think that it left me with a couple of lingering, although i was a bit of a git already, i think were you amplify my fitness . you amplify my fitness. >> were you gay before i. >> were you gay before i. >> yes , i was, but now i hate >> yes, i was, but now i hate myself for being no, now i know now i just feel like i can't believe i gave in. what a fool. >> as i said, it's turning the flipping comedians gate. yeah, i mean, look, i'm not trying to boast about it, but it is. it was. it's a great time to be a misanthropic contrarian loner who was just like, no, i'm not getting it. scott made a really good point. that doesn't get blood is so pure. and i'm so pleased that you are a pure blood, but scott made a good point. there are. scott said that he wanted to go back at yoga and travel, but most what we do forget is we were told that you would be essentially a social pariah if you didn't have the covid vaccine, whatever one

it was. and if you needed to travel for work or if you wanted to be a comedian and go out in places, there were actually promoters out there who wanted to see vaccine passports. they wanted to test you when you walked in the club. >> that happened. >> that happened. >> yeah, it took an iron will guys, to not take the vaccine. i know a very special type of person. >> your career was already over. but the thing is, i wanted i could have gotten a certificate or that thing is that letter. you could have gotten that said that you are exempt. yeah. i don't know why i didn't work hard. >> got one of leo's dodgy certificates, but let's see the guardian. guardian with a climate change story. now, i skimmed it, but i'm guessing we're all doomed. scott. >> the world's top climate scientists expect global heating to blast past 1.5 c. target. there's another global apocalypse. we haven't had one in a while, so i've been missing it, apparently, we're meant to worry because things are getting warmer. i'd like to worry , but warmer. i'd like to worry, but i'm busy, and, i've got pilates in the morning. i guess the world is getting warmer. april was freezing, and we had the heat on the whole time and raining, but apparently it's the warmest april in history. >> warmest ever, if you like. if you took the temperature like

the planes at heathrow airport, you know, right next to the exhaust, which they always take it when they mentioned. >> they show one picture of people on the beach in april in brighton, but that's because they're homeless there. and west, great point, great point. >> yeah. i mean, they're saying here many of the scientists envisage a semi dystopian future. well that would be an upgrade on the pure dystopian future we have at the moment. the present dystopian present. yeah. and they're talking about famines, conflicts, mass migration. we've already got at least two of those things. yeah. >> what do you think? it's already happening. climate scientists, in other words, people that are paid to produce this data, you know, if you if they would not be paid, if they didn't find this data and it's really important to remember that and that it's in their best interest to perpetuate this dystopian future. >> because if they don't, then they're not going to get their funding. and i know that sounds cynical, but that's exactly true. that's very lewis schaefer. but yeah, it is. and maybe i spend too much time with him, but they're all on the same board. they're all the same people. it's like it's like you and i saying, you know, gb news

headliners is good. well, you say that, paul, but one of them is your brother here, peter cox. yeah. we don't speak. it's like we're like jeremy and his brother . you fell we're like jeremy and his brother. you fell out over climate. >> although, you know, in south of brazil, they're having this huge rain problems now. and puerto olaguer, this gorgeous city, we've been to a major metropolitan area. there's alligators because the water is four feet high and it won't go down. alligators floating past domestic buildings. and it's a complete disaster. the amazon's a mess. so when you see things like that, you see what's going on in rivers in china and vietnam and the delta, i don't know. >> okay. well, thank you for providing balance because it was getting all a bit duniry there. >> so we're gonna lose our license. >> exactly. we'll lose our license. so i don't believe anything i just said. no. but anything ijust said. no. but the problem is, you know, every time i see expert now, i just don't inherently don't trust it. they're kind of like the boy who cried covid. i don't trust experts anymore. but let's do the times. and former england cricket player monty panesar has stepped down from george galloway's political party after realising that it was george galloway's political party. paul monty panesar withdraws as workers party candidate after just one week, so panesar announced this week that he

wanted to stand as a candidate and represent working class people of this country . however, people of this country. however, after a series of shocking media appearances, he now said he no longer wants to contest the seat and god bless him. i mean, you don't just need to have good intentions. in fact, very rarely do politicians need to have good intentions to get into politics. and often they don't. and i don't want to question his intentions because they seemed good, but he sort of lacked that ability to speak or understand anything or have any common knowledge of like things like good at cricket, though it was great at cricket , great at great at cricket, great at cricket. that's what i personally want from my politicians. yes how how's your googly? that's what i asked. to be honest . how's your flipper? be honest. how's your flipper? it's warm in here, so my googly is okay. but. but hang on, paul, i want to know though, i mean, or scott, in fact, he's a sikh. i hate to be, i don't think be controversial, but it's kind of a muslim sympathetic party is a sikh in the right place? if he's in george galloway's party, i think he's trying to build a bridge. >> galloway and make people feel more comfortable with that idea. okay, yeah. but i think, this

guy was just meant to be galloway's sort of, like, how do you say. but, boy, but get away with it. yeah. okay. sorry. and well, no, i only say that because it's totally not normal water. but it's water. terrible. abnormal position to take. >> let's just, either pretend scott didn't say that or apologise to the nation , apologise to the nation, whichever is better. i'm sorry. well, you know. well, now i'm upset. you said jesus. so it's digging a hole. >> but i think he found out late in life that galloway supports putin. i think that's what upset this guy. i think he actually listens. galloway for a minute i thought, oh, god, this galloway is a nightmare. what am i doing here? >> my favourite thing is that he's solely relied on cricket puns. he's like, i'm going to next. look, i'm going to think it through better next time i run up to the political wicket and it says here he a string of cricket. he seemed to believe that a string of cricket based wordplay about his candidacy would satisfy doubts like all i've got is cricket puns. guys, i'm just doubling down, he wanted britain to pull out a nato and stuff. >> it wasn't. he just didn't know what he was talking about. right. >> all right, well, let's move on to do the times and this

rather bleak story about a cyclist has a new twist to it. scott. >> well, a woman was jailed for causing the death of a cyclist, but she she was found guilty for manslaughter in march. and then the decision has been overturned. this woman, she's 50 years old. her name is ariel grey, and she's walking down a street in cambridgeshire and whiten and or. sorry, it was in cambridgeshire. is that where. yeah i think yeah. and, and she, i watched the video she's walking through and there's traffic going by her and a cyclist is coming her way. she says, oh there it is. get off the pavement. she yells at her, you'll see. she'll do it in a second. she she gestures three times with her left hand and says, there she goes, one, two, three. and the cyclist falls and right after that happens, a car hit that 77 year old woman and killed her immediately. she. so the 50 year woman was found guilty initially, and then the decision has been overturned by a higher court. the thing is, i watched that video and i thought i know she doesn't. she doesn't hit her, she doesn't knock her. but that that sidewalk is very narrow. yeah. and that woman was 77. and i kind of think that her action led to that woman dying, so why not?

>> again, i didn't even know we were going to show it once. i'm not totally sure we should even be. no one told me we were showing this like, no. should we be showing? >> it's really shocking. >> it's really shocking. >> they do stop it in time. but you know what? >> well, look, you can see her her indicator and her pressure makes that woman kind of, wobble. but anyway, the higher court said nothing in her action was a crime. if you put her away for whatever, it's people said they put her away. was her gesturing her dramatic gesturing. then you have to put 50,000 footballer fans away each yeah >> yeah. and she also had cerebral palsy and was partially blind. so tricky one. i'm just going to move on and do this next one. paul, let's do the telegraph and cambridge university will not move palestine protesters off their lawn. i guess that would be too much like something an old white man would do. paul yeah, that's a good point. the university of cambridge will not move pro—palestine protesters off from the lawn outside king's college, its vice chancellor has confirmed. this is professor deborah deborah prentice, who is, as i said, the vice chancellor at cambridge. she said, the, the university is fully committed to freedom of

speech within the law and the right to protest. i don't you're not going to get any disagreement with me. i mean, they are more as far as i'm concerned. they have every right to protest , i protest, concerned. they have every right to protest, i protest, i'm an advocate for free speech. as long as they're doing it in within the law and they're doing it peaceably as they are in this case, from what i understand, they're not stopping people getting to their lectures as they are elsewhere. so for me, |, they are elsewhere. so for me, i, i can't disagree with her. here's the problem with it. this guy, vernal scott, who has led oxford's equality and diversity unit since october 2023, he signed a letter declaring solidarity with students protesting against israel's war in gaza. so he's politically partial. and recently he also sort of gloated about almost natcon getting shut down in brussels by the local mayor, which was a completely obscene. so the point is, this guy is not is not impartial. and that creates a conflict when students might want to come to him who are not politically aligned. >> the students are also yelling about destroying israel, which makes some of the jewish students on the campus feel anxious. yes, but what i was shocked by when i saw the photos

of the placement of the tents, is how regimented the camp is. the tents are almost all the same. someone's buying them, someone's funding this and someone's funding this and someone's setting it up. it's very well organised. these things don't just happen out of nowhere, not with students . no, nowhere, not with students. no, exactly. so i it really that part makes me anxious. >> normally george soros in fact, we can officially say yes, definitely. >> we assume if you see some of the protests in the us and some people being held off campus or pushed, we assume that all these kids are students and they're clearly not all students. no. where are they mature? what are they doing there? i think they're just there to stir trouble up. and someone has sent them there. >> so i can't disagree with any of that either. but i think the point i still would make is that even though i disagree with them and we all quite clearly disagree with them, you know, they're entitled to do it as long as they do it within the law. i agree with the point that there should be some sort of neutrality within the senior management at the university, but okay. all right. well, that is it for part two. but coming up, the scottish greens cling on to their mad gender views.

welcome back to headliners. let's get into it with the telegraph. and the scottish greens refused to recognise the findings of the cass review. are they going to be the culture war equivalent of those japanese soldiers that carried on fighting way after world war ii? and finished scott? >> patrick harvie just won't stop. he will. the little glasses and you know, he looks like he's just really angry about this. he refuses to accept the validity of the cass report, even though every other political party, including the snp, has accepted he's no longer in really , he's no longer in really, he's no longer a government official anymore. so he really doesn't have much to say. but anyway, he is saying this. i think this is getting him the, remnants of attention he so obviously requires .

he so obviously requires. >> yeah. it's bizarre. i mean, they say they could not support they say they could not support the castle review as a valid scientific document. somehow they know more than the castle review, and then they they say, oh, they oppose the toxic culture around this issue. this is why we don't deal with the fact we've lost this. and we've put children's, you know, lives in jeopardy. and we we've just ruining their lives by supporting. >> we hate gay men and gay women, by the way. right. >> so now they just go, oh, it's toxic. it's all toxic. >> culture wars. >> culture wars. >> weird. is it? it's really weird. patrick harvie does look like if you watch enough sort of nazi documentaries, he does look like an aspiring nazi officer. he's got that look about him and circle glasses. it just sort of week but wants power and he himmler. yeah himmler. yeah. yeah. himmler of the green party which and i think the green content i think the green party would take himmler on now. i mean, what has happened to the green party? they used to be, you know, sort of slightly odd environmentalist, but, you know, there was always good intention. you never really had a problem with the green party difficult to vote for because they were never going to get into power. and now they seem to have

adopted any, anything and anybody ideology of any kind. it's all about genitals and islam. yeah well, at least i think god is great, well, he's a recycling genitals. >> they're doing that. >> they're doing that. >> well, not just recycling. >> well, not just recycling. >> i think we can say recycling genitals. >> that's good. yeah. the name of my next one person show. all right. >> hard to top that. so let's see. >> the telegraph. and an executive director of waitrose says the era of cheap food is ove r. ove t. >> oveh >> clearly someone doesn't know how to look for the yellow sticker deals. well, a good point. the era of cheap food is oveh point. the era of cheap food is over, says waitrose chief. and i'll bet he does. of course he does. so globally, agriculture is responsible for around 20% of greenhouse gas emissions, which i was aware of and in the biggest driver of biodiversity loss. so what he's saying is we need to look at different ways. and he sort of points toward tesco and asda and people like that who actually help their suppliers, power, you know, power their industry in green ways by giving them subsidies, etc, etc. but the more i read of this story, the more it does sound like a sort of pro depopulation action story. because the problem we've got, the problem we've got, and he is

pointing it out, is that the earth is overpopulated, which is why we have these these huge manufacturing farms that across the world are enable us to produce food, bigger and better and more ready for us to, for us to all eat, especially me. but go on. sorry. no. go on. it's bothered me that you think he's a sort of a malthusian, he's worried about overpopulation. of course, we actually have low birth rates, so underpopulation will be a problem in future. but. but i just worry a little bit about poor people. he keeps saying, you know, cheap food's gone. we're all gonna have to, like, farm for ourselves. it's all very hippy. it's all a bit george monbiot. it's all a bit. so poor people don't go to waitrose. nick. so he hasn't really got any concern about. >> he's talking about the farmers going to him and saying, look, i'd like to start farming the way my father and grandfather did, the way my family did before the second world war, local farming, where the where the soil is treated properly, where the soil is left dormant for a certain part of the year when we start craving things like cheap wine, you know, wine destroys the soil because they grow the grapes all

year long, things like that. they want to start reversing that and encouraging people to sort of buy more expensive food that's grown locally . okay. and, that's grown locally. okay. and, you know, the organic market has sort of topped out at 2% with waitress. and i think they're trying to reach people in a different way and try trying to encourage people. i think, to not just support their own better diet, but local farm industry as well. >> okay. >> okay. >> so that's admirable. i think in a way it is. >> there is a great point, actually, and there are there are much better ways of doing this. you know, we could have food sovereignty, which is what a lot of these farmers are asking for. they're saying, you know, can we go back to the old way of doing it? can we sustain ourselves and if we're not exporting and importing so much? >> obviously, i think they should be promoting more things like this app i follow too. good to go where? yeah, it shows you where all the food is that's left that you can get from us. and i mean, the stuff in my bakery, so expensive is like an eighth the price the next day. okay. and all this food is chucked. it really shouldn't be. >> all right, well, let's go to

move on. but i don't drink wine. but if i did, it would be cheap wine. i like food sovereignty because it has sovereignty in it. and it sounds like brexit. let's do the express and french air traffic controllers have won the right to show up to work three hours late. that's the most french thing since black and white films about nothing. scott. >> unbelievable. with no with no conversation. i know the controllers are said to earn up to £93,000 a year and often only work about 75% of their 32 hour weeks in france, and their, they're threatening to go on strike during the olympics week if this this is in any way altered, and the staff insist at air traffic control centres that there's always too much staff anyway. and they don't. they call ahead. how busy is it? and their friends will say, not so busy. and friends, of course, i can't do french because i have a future, but the french will say so. they won't show up, but all their show or they'll, you know, their show or they'll, you know, the for me, i'll take a little bit longer and then show up eventually. >> i know and they're said to earn up to £93,000 a year and often only work 75% of the 32 hours a week short week already. this is why they lose the wars.

pauli this is why they lose the wars. paul, i know see it might be why they lose the war. apparently they're more productive than us in the uk though. really yeah. i mean, because even at 75% capacity, is that why they're phoning in? i don't know what we're doing. just waiting for us. it's a bit like it's a bit like april was the hottest one on record. it wasn't, of course. >> it was a quarter of flights in france were delayed last yeah in france were delayed last year. 24% were delayed, still slightly fewer than the uk, where the proportion of late flights is more like 25 or 26. >> so we're just very badly organised. they're just in bed. yeah, but when they're when they get up, they do it properly maybe. yeah. when they get there eventually you've got to admire them though haven't you. i mean, them though haven't you. i mean, the one guy says he's got a 9 am. shift and they're ringing a.m. shift and they're ringing to see if it's busy. if it's not, he'll go back to bed till 11. is it. there is something about that. yeah. about the sort of slacker vibe. it's a very 90s. all right, let's do the telegraph. and sean will have to use id to get on to social media. could the fake tea stained birth certificate make a return? paul, do you have those kind of drink? yeah, i once actually, and i shouldn't say, children and mushowe id to you, to you. social media under 13 will be kicked off platforms as

ofcom unveils bolstered age checks. i mean, i'm all for this actually to some degree, but ofcom are involved, so i don't think it's going to work. right. and, our secretary of state for science has said an innovation and technology. sorry, secretary of state. i said there should no longer tolerate this wild west where children are force fed violence, pornography, abuse and harmful content on social media, which is the only reason i go onune which is the only reason i go online anyway. it's a shame the kids get to see it. but, i looked at how they're going to enforce this and they're going to enforce this by using photo id such as passports, using facial age estimation. so if you've got a young looking face, you've got a young looking face, you know you're in trouble here straight away or reusable digital id services, which is something i'm completely uneducated about and can't discuss. so i mean, surely this this , this can only be enforced this, this can only be enforced to some degree . and, you know, to some degree. and, you know, people on the cusp that are imagine if you want some special alone times, nick, the last time you want to do the last thing you want to do the last thing you really want to do is go searching for your passport. well, yeah. i mean, i'm like

you, i'm torn because i want to protect children. but also i question whether ofcom should be doing this, even though i love ofcom and think they should definitely regulate ofcom are great. sorry, i'm just not. >> oh come, oh come oh come you. i think they're trying to protect kids from killing themselves because these teenagers. yeah. there's one girl they mentioned the article molly russell, 13 year old, who took her own life after receiving 16,000, quote, destructive posts on social media encouraging self—harm. the problem is these are kids telling other kids to kill themselves, right? so i mean, themselves, right? so i mean, the online safety act is will be respected by these online companies, but can we protect children from children ? that's children from children? that's the thing, right? >> good point. let's do the independent then. and apparently i can predict how all of life's molecules will interact with each other, which is weird because they can't even work out that white people exist. scott. yeah that's the problem, isn't it? >> the findings can supercharge the hunt for new drugs and treatments. apparently, i can now use to predict how all of life's molecules interact with each other, and they can predict disease and all sorts of things, and they can, increase the speed of the drug discovery process massively. it says. so. people

are terrified of ai. i think they're trying to paint a pretty face on it and say, actually, it's not going to ruin film and destroy literature and, and dismantle culture, but it's going to do they're going to save your life and help you live longer. and here's how that would be nice. >> yeah. if it fixed cancer and parkinson's and malaria and tuberculosis by predicting how proteins interact with all other molecules. and so on. what do you think, paul? well, it's a good news story for al. i mean, like scott was saying, we often do ai stories on on here and they're all terrifying about how we're going to be attacked by whatever. the idea of living forever is not for me. yeah i mean, really well, okay. if we're going to live to 200, i still want to retire at 60. that would have to be the ideal for me. yeah. are you imagine you imagine, though , if you had to imagine, though, if you had to work for 150 years before you could get a pension, the thing is, that's a lot of podcasts. >> it is. yeah. i've just read about this 93 year old guy in the guardian who still runs marathons. he said, i'm fine as long as i'm not in any pain. i don't mind living a long time. as long as i'm not my father, it can barely move, right? no years

old, right? yeah. >> and if anyone's watching who controls this stuff, i do want to live forever with all the good youth things. and i'll give them to paul or give them to me. >> i give some, you know, i want to be able to, you know, go dancing and go to lunch with my friends and wear birkenstocks. i don't want to be crippled, lying in bed like my dad. you know, he's right. right? i mean, a little tuberculosis. anyway might be a good thing, actually, on that. just a little. just a little tumour dropped in his head. i'm not even darker. >> note. we've got to go. that's it for part three. but coming up in the final

welcome back to the final section of headliners. let's crack on with the telegraph. and 1 in 3 uk. women are sad. the other two are presumably just angry. paul. well i'll read the headline. 1 angry. paul. well i'll read the headune.1in angry. paul. well i'll read the headline. 1 in 3 uk women are sad. worse than saudi arabia and kosovo. and i love these arbitrary comparisons. why

kosovo? why saudi arabia? anyway research on 80,000 women from 143 countries shows levels of despair among british women, with worry, stress and anger is all rising. so the researchers found that 39% of british women reported stress against an eu average of 34. so again, we're losing here. i mean, 90% of those women had met louis schaefer, i understand, but yes , schaefer, i understand, but yes, we never do well in these polls. we never the uk, we never do well in any eurovision. it's against does this happen in the states? i mean, do you see these states? no. >> americans are more aspirational. they would never admit to being sad. it would just be like it make them seem as though they'd failed. they'd say that they were having a low day or something, but they never say they were set because isn't. it's sad. a medical condition is that a lady is a winter condition. >> but yeah, she's not active disorder. but look, i mean, one thing they're blaming is the nhs, which no one can blame them for that. i mean, the massive waiting list. i'm also blaming feminism. it's not in the article, but you know, these

days, women, they've been told they have to compete with men in they have to compete with men in the workplace. so on a lot of women just want to have a family. that's very hard. now, financially. >> it's weird because boobies are so fun. i think just being able to flick your boobies around, that's a good time right there. i even i like boobies, you know, the whole tokyo come in tokyo thing. >> we all like boobies. and that's the news. >> they're fun. >> they're fun. >> yeah, but why get your hair done, ladies? i'm blaming the general social upheaval. they said they've got a lot of anxiety. i'm blaming feminism. what are you blaming? i mean, it must be. no, no, you're absolutely right. i think the feminism thing is not being facetious or cynical. it's a good point because women's role in society has changed. the, you know, a woman, if you read certain newspapers, a woman can only be successful if she's made it onto the board of a ftse 100 company, or if she's working so hard she's making men look like . hard she's making men look like. >> ask eddie izzard because he's discovering his woman. yes, that's what he says. yeah, he's he's finding his. >> he would no. ideally we would have brought a woman in, but they were all too sad to come in. >> the thing is, i think, you know, this whole change women and men thing on the nhs, 5,000% of women want to be men. now, all that change. i think they want to run the world. thing is, running the world is a big deal.

they don't know. it's a lot of heavy lifting. they don't get it. i mean, we make it look easy because we're good. >> yeah, yeah, yeah. right. and it's miserable being a man. no, i mean, there was a woman i was talking about with norah vincent who pretended to be a man for a while. she found it so depressing. later, she killed herself somewhat unrelated reason, but she found it the most crushing experience. hard being a man. >> i think we should. you know, we should be women. maybe try it for a while because they so much time on their hands. right. let's see if they can do it. >> let women be women. let men be men. and as you were saying in the break, bring back the patriarchy. the thing is, with all the gays died in the 80s, we let the lesbians run the gay pride march, and they messed it up. >> yeah. now it's all about kids and budweiser beer and stuff. >> those lesbians. okay, that was all acceptable television. let's do the independent and the latest media attempt to make rfk junior sound insane. >> scott, the thing i like about rfk is him with his shirt off. everything else i can do without. >> have you noticed there was a documentary about is ripped? oh, yeah. he looks incredible. yeah, there was a documentary. the reason i said my intro is it was a documentary narrated by woody harrelson, which is pointed out that people used to love him. the american media loved him. then suddenly went against then suddenly he went up against big they didn't love big pharma. and they didn't love him anymore. yeah, yeah. anyway, sorry. because what were sorry. because what we were talking earlier, isn't it talking about earlier, isn't it

about covid thing about about that covid thing about people disagreeing and just seemed surprised. >> he's also said couple >> but he's also said a couple of apparently he, of crazy things, apparently he, he was having, some cognitive problems, both short and long term memory loss in 2010. and this is after his uncle had just died of brain cancer. so he was sure he had brain cancer. he went to the doctor. doctor said, no, you don't have brain cancer. we found that shadow on the x ray is a worm in your brain that has died and before it died at eight, some of your brain . eight, some of your brain. >> yeah, i know it sounds mad talking about it. people are going to say what a gb news on about, and they're going to clip it. but that is the headline in independent articles. crazy says a worm ate part of his brain and then died inside his head. >> now he's saying this. he didn't. >> he said it. he's quoting doctor. >> the doctor. we didn't speak to the worm either. right. but i mean, a doctor didn't say this . mean, a doctor didn't say this. he said a doctor said this. and i mean, he has said a lot of things in the past that are a bit like. but, you know, i mean, whatever he has short term memory loss. >> they do have bad luck. i mean, you know, jfk, kennedy's shot, bobby kennedy shot his father, rfk junior werm in brain. yeah, yeah , i just cut brain. yeah, yeah, i just cut the worm in brain. just made me laugh. it's a lovely punchline. >> they've had brain. brain?

unlucky brain things, haven't they? right. they have. >> i know , i didn't, i know >> i know, i didn't, i know i didn't want to say that, but we've seen it on twitter. we saw it one of their brains, but they suck. but, you know, this is a smear piece. it is a smear piece because he's not well liked. and this is the independent. what they never really say in this story. they do talk about mercury poisoning and how he eats too much tuna. and we've spoken a bit about that, nick, because we do like our tuna. oh it's terrifying. yeah. however you never say quite how the worm gets in the brain. i want to know how the worm gets in the brain. >> i saw the movie. it goes through your ear. i saw that twilight zone episode. you're asleep. it gets in your ear. it eats its way into your brain. and then most people die. how he survived that. he's a miracle. let's see it that way. maybe it's a good thing. >> that's a good point. let's move on. i want to get to tom. we might not, but let's do the telegraph. and this article sounds like it was written by a boomer. paul. yeah. rising middle aged parents bankrolling three generations. much has been said about britain's sandwich generation. the middle aged parents who are financially squeezed by having to support both elderly parents and young children . now i am

both elderly parents and young children. now i am in both elderly parents and young children . now i am in exactly children. now i am in exactly this position, both my parents are in a home now and unfortunately it's mine. that i am. my parents have moved into an annexe off of my house and my daughter is there still. she's only 14 so why wouldn't she be so i've got this problem. i mean, they would probably all argue that it's not my problem to look after them, but this is happening more and more in other cultures. this is just the norm though, okay? we've only got 50s.can though, okay? we've only got 50s. can we get to trump or do you want to do this one? oh that's it. we can 47 a joke. let's just do the telegraph. >> really enjoying his story about how miserable his life is. i feel good about myself, but donald trump plans to send kill teams to mexico to take out drug lords. >> he's talked about this before. tremendous kill teams. and many people are saying they're the best kill teams ever seen. >> the best of the best with tiny hands . >> the best of the best with tiny hands. no, he's. yes. he said this before. he's 77 years old. and to him, the only way to deal with drug lords in mexico is to kill them. so he he wants to the us military down there. but the mexican government is furious about this because they're saying we can take care of our own problems, and you're just going to make matters diplomatically between our two countries worse by doing that. >> okay, paul, in 13 seconds trump kill teams. well it's

brilliant. it's very trumpian i love it. i mean, you can imagine him talking about them like they're they're good people, many of them like me. but they've got to go great. kill teams. totally amazing. killed some of the best kill teams we've ever seen. we've got to go to the papers. thank you very much, gentlemen. the show is nearly over, so let's take another quick look at thursday's front pages. so the daily mail has labour willing to pander to sectarianism. the times go with starmer splits party by accepting tory defector. the guardian has scientists despair amid forecasts of at least 2.5 centigrade temperature rise. the telegraph have cameron eu must be tougher on russia . the i goes be tougher on russia. the i goes with interest rate can't save sunak amid defection row. and finally the daily stah sunak amid defection row. and finally the daily star. the end of the plonkers, which was about insults disappearing from our lexicon. and those were the front pages. that is it for tonight's show. thanks to paul and scott. headlines is back tomorrow at 11 pm. and if you're watching at 5 am, then stay tuned for breakfast. but for now, it's good night or good morning. and god bless .

morning. and god bless. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on gb views . news. views. news. >> hello. good evening. it's been another dry and fine day for many of us, and there'll be more in the way of sunshine to come tomorrow. and it should be a warmer day for most of us. however, cloudier skies are starting to approach the northwest as this weather front moves in. won't make too much progress overnight. further elsewhere across the country as high pressure is building in, so it should be a fairly clear and dry night for the bulk of england and wales. cloudier skies will affect parts of northern england, northern ireland and in particular much of scotland, where the rain will turn quite persistent across the northwest overnight. so quite a damp night to come. probably a damp night to come. probably a damp start to the day , but damp start to the day, but elsewhere it should be a bright and mild start to the day quite widely. temperatures will be in double digits by thursday morning. any mist, a mist and fog that has formed overnight should clear quite readily. it's most likely across coastal areas across england and wales, and

that will give way to another day of long lived sunny spells. and it's going to feel warmer in that sunshine than today, and the sunshine should spread up and further north into northwestern areas of scotland, as that weather front pushes north. highs of 2223, possibly 24 degrees across central areas of england on thursday. again, there's a risk of mist and fog to start the day on friday. the sunshine could be a bit hazy first thing, but it should brighten up quite quickly through the day and i think most areas will see a day of long lived sunny spells. and once again , it's going to be feeling again, it's going to be feeling fairly warm, long lived sunshine to come on saturday. a risk of showers on sunday, but temperatures are climbing towards 25 or 26 degrees. >> looks like things are heating up boxt boilers sponsors of weather on

gb news. >> it's 9 pm. i'm patrick

christys tonight , right? christys tonight, right? >> everybody is scared about rwanda. everybody is not right about this. everybody say that it's not right . it's not right. >> i visit an illegal migrant camp. they are scared of rwanda. and. and you didn't like france? france is no good. >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i don't know, like france . >> i don't know, like france. france are good. >> find out what happened when this man's claim was rejected. plus this myth to be debunked was that mass migration was an unalloyed good for the economy. >> and in the report, we've set out that that really isn't the case. >> robert jenrick bust the last myth on mass migration . myth on mass migration. >> also mp for dover natalie elphicke . elphicke. >> labour's shadow chancellor told the newest mp to f off and is a real thing. >> it's our birthday and invictus games foundation and we're all very excited and thrilled and given the state of the .world,there is so much more
