They come straight to my laptop. Mark at gbnews. Com but let me bnng mark at gbnews. Com but let me bring you up to speed on exactly whats happening in the middle east. So it all started on saturday. The 7th of october. The Palestinian Terror Group hamas launched an unprecedented attack on israel with Hamas Terrorists entering communities near the gaza strip, killing at least 1300 people and taking scores of hostages. Meanwhile more than 1400 people have been killed in gaza since israel launched retaliatory air strikes and a ground offensive of israel has told everyone in the north of the gaza strip. As i mentioned, this is about 1. 1 Million People to relocate to the south of the territory. Within 24 hours. While that deadune within 24 hours. While that deadline ended six minutes ago at 9 pm. Uk time. Deadline ended six minutes ago at 9 pm. Uk time. And so what at 9 pm. Uk time. And so what israel have said they want everyone in the gaza to actually head south of a watercourse known as wadi gaza. The un has said this is not possible and asked israel to withdraw the order warning of devastating human consequences. The World Health Organisation said gazas Health Authorities had told it that it would be impossible to evacuate vulnerable hospital patients. Hamas which controls the gaza strip, told civilians to ignore the Evacuation Order from israel, describing it as fake propaganda. However many people have been leaving , going people have been leaving, going by foot on bicycles on cars. There you can see those images playing out. Northern gaza playing out. Northern gaza contains gaza city and two refugee camps is one of the most densely populated parts of the territory. Theres only one main territory. Theres only one main road going south and fuel for vehicles is now running out. Vehicles is now running out. Hamass military wing, the al qassam brigades, is continuing to fire rockets into israel , continuing to fire rockets into israel, claiming to have targeted ashkelon in the south of the country. With 150 rockets. This is israels stated goal now. Now, as a result of goal now. Now, as a result of what happened last weekend is to destroy hamas as it has massed tens of thousands of soldiers on its borders with gaza, along with tanks and artillery. It has activated some 300,000 reservists alongside its Standing Force of 160,000 troops. The Israeli Military has for prepared an offensive by dropping 6000 bombs on gaza, targeting hamas commanders and their control centres. One of its main targets is hamass vast labyrinth of underground tunnels, which link together its underground command posts. So underground command posts. So gaza also referred to as gaza city, is a palestinian city in the gaza strip. Its got a population of over 600,000 people, making it the largest city in the state. The state of palestine. The gaza strip is a 41 kilometre long and ten kilometre wide territory, located between israel, egypt and the mediterranean sea. So and the mediterranean sea. So who are hamas . Well they are a Palestinian Terror Group who have ruled the gaza strip since two thousand and seven. The group is sworn to israels destruction and want to replace it with an islamic state. Hamas has fought several wars with israel since it took power. It israel since it took power. It has fired or allowed other terror groups to fire thousands of rockets at israel and carried out other deadly attacks. Now, out other deadly attacks. Now, in response , israel has in response, israel has repeatedly attacked hamas with airstrikes and sent troops into gaza during two of the wars. Together with egypt , it has together with egypt, it has blockaded the gaza strip since two thousand and seven for what it describes as security reasons. Hamas or in some cases its military wing, reasons. Hamas or in some cases its military wing , the its military wing, the aforementioned Izzedine Al Qassam brigades, has been designated a terror group by israel, the United States, the European Union and the uk , as European Union and the uk, as well as other powers in ran backs. The Group Provides it with funding weapons and training after hamass attack, israel announced a siege of gaza , cutting its supplies of electricity, fuel goods and water. It says the siege will not end until israeli hostages are released at one of the hostages in question is a holocaust survivor over mains electricity has gone out after gazas single power station ran out of fuel without electricity. Gazas water and Sewage Systems are expected to shut down households, hospitals and businesses in gaza are relying on generators as now, if they have the fuel to run them. The border between israel and gaza remains closed. The rafah crossing, which is controlled by egypt , has crossing, which is controlled by egypt, has been crossing, which is controlled by egypt , has been targeted by egypt, has been targeted by israeli airstrikes and has been largely closed or very heavily restricted. So youll be aware restricted. So youll be aware that this is a developing situation. And of course, aaron situation. And of course, Aaron Armstrong will come in with any breaking news as and when we get it. But that deadline for those in northern gaza to escape has passed. Just 11 minutes ago, passed. Just 11 minutes ago, 9 00 is when the israelis said that that area of gaza needed to be cleared. Thats over a million residents. Theyve been running by foot on cars, all the rest of it. So we are expecting developments and of course, were expecting israel to reply with considerable force. As youve heard there from their Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. So now lets get netanyahu. So now lets get reaction from my top pundits this evening. Reporter and broadcaster Stephanie Takyi author and journalist Laura Dodsworth and criminal barrister and former conservative mp jerry hayes. And former conservative mp jerry hayes. Laura, if i can start hayes. Laura, if i can start with you. There really are just no words to describe whats happening in the middle east. Its deeply worrying. Its deeply tragic. And the most deeply tragic. And the most appalling crimes have been committed in the last seven days. Its hard to know where to even start. Its been a devastating week, which started with shocking acts of barbarism and probably. See one of the most difficult things i think this week actually has been the reaction to the barbarism. You reaction to the barbarism. You know, weve had the bbc refusing to call Hamas Terrorists. As you to call Hamas Terrorists. As you said earlier, the far wont not light up its arches and the colours of blue and white. And it seems that various esteemed professors in the uk and the west are almost proud that decolonisation isnt a metaphor. Theyre there. Theres this kind of casual reaction to the atrocity and what really is a blood soaked pogrom. So thats how the week has started. And how the week has started. And then i think a lot of us feel like were on, you know, were on tenterhooks. Whats going to happen next . How much worse , how happen next . How much worse, how much the violence much worse can the violence escalate and how many more innocent civilians whose lives will be lost indeed. Will be lost indeed. And stephanie, this awful conflict has reflected severe, severe divisions within our own society. And people have been society. And people have been out there in our cities, manchester, london and elsewhere , waving palestinian flags. , waving palestinian flags. Yeah, its been one of these things where i think usually when these cases of war happens, it always tends to be ignorance has been bliss , but this feels has been bliss, but this feels much closer to home and its been the whole week. Its just been the whole week. Its just been so sad to see the division. Its caused within the uk from the time that people cannot even send their children to school. I send their children to school. I have both friends who are both jewish and both people who have close allies with palestine and just to hear both sides of their story , its quite heartbreaking story, its quite heartbreaking and it goes to show that were all involved in this. Its not just something thats happening in the middle east. We all have to wake up and Pay Attention to the atrocities has been the atrocities which has been happening on sides of this happening on both sides of this war. The only thing that i think would make me feel settled is if i knew that peace was around the corner. And clearly this is just the beginning of something horrifying and something which may last very long time indeed. So whilst stephanie was talking, if youre watching on television , youll have television, youll have seen pictures live from new pictures there live from new york of a pro palestinian demonstration in front of the un building in new york city, jerry hayes peace in the middle east feels further away than ever. Well thats exactly what iran wants , because dont forget, wants, because dont forget, israel has done peace deals with jordan. Theyve done peace deals with egypt. They were doing a free trade deal with bahrain. But the most important one of all, they were doing a deal with saudi arabia. There is no way that a hamas who are funded by by iran. And dont forget, hamas is not just they dont want the state of israel to exist. They want to destroy it. And they want to kill every single jew man, woman or child. If i can just go back or child. If i can just go back to something that stephanie said and that and something you said in your monologue, too, in the monologue, you said, our jewish people still safe. The fact of people still safe. The fact of the matter is, they havent been safe in this country for a long time. People dont realise that time. People dont realise that every single Jewish School well before this conflict has had security people outside every synagogue has had security outside. So there are serious, outside. So there are serious, Serious Problems for the safety of jewish people in this country , which i find in 2023 utterly appalling. Appalling. Indeed. So. Well, coming up next in the big story with schools being forced to close and a Strong Police presence on the streets of the uk are jewish people still safe in britain or were they ever as jerry has rightly asked . Well be rightly asked . Well be discussing that radio. Well, a big response on email to whats happening in israel and gaza. David has said good evening, mark. What were witnessing is very sad and any killings of civilians, regardless of which side it may come from, is wrong. However its a reflection of humanity that we have lost our basic Human Dignity of care and empathy for each other. Sadly, religious causes and political causes have been put above human life all over the world, led by divisive politics across the world, looking to cause division in among all of us muslim, christian, catholic, sikh and any other religious viewpoint across the world should not be put before the basic fact that we are all human. We have the worst leaders in living history, says dave. David thank you very much for that. Keep those emails coming and we can go now to live pictures of gaza, where that deadune pictures of gaza, where that deadline for residents to head south has passed. This was south has passed. This was a diktat from the Israeli Government telling all residents of north gaza to head south of the region by 9 00. Uk time, which was 20 minutes ago. So that deadline has passed. Civilians are fleeing northern gaza, which is what we got a shot of at the moment. Theyre fleeing by car on the back of trucks and on foot after that warning that warning from israel that civilians should move south. Thats 1. 1 civilians should move south. Thats1. 1 Million People living in Northern Areas told to head out as quickly as possible. Many thousands have done just that. Thousands have done just that. Okay. We also have a view of new york city live in front of the un building and pro palestinian demonstrators. Now six jewish demonstrators. Now six Jewish Schools in london are closed today amid fears for pupils safety following a surge in anti semitic attacks. As the home secretary Suella Braverman warned media evil anti semitism by hamas was no excuse to target jews in britain. The Community Security trust, a charity that supports british jewish people, said anti semitic hate crimes, had tripled in the four days after Hamas Terrorists attacked israel. So is britain still safe for jewish people . Lets speak to Isaac Tzarfati, who is the executive director of stand with us uk. Isaac, executive director of stand with us uk. Isaac, thank you very much for joining us uk. Isaac, thank you very much forjoining us. Are you much for joining us. Are you able to answer that question . Is britain still safe for jewish people today. People today. Thank you for having me, marc. Look, i think that today was a pivotal day. The fact that six schools were closed. I was in schools were closed. I was in a conference yesterday with jewish students and young professionals, and they asked me for my professional advice if they can go to work tomorrow. I think that this situation is unbearable. So i would like to unbearable. So i would like to remind you and the viewers that we are not in europe of 1923. We are in britain of 2023. And i think that today was, again, as a pivotal, pivotal day. And i think that that reality must change dramatically indeed. Do you think that School Closures will continue into next week and also other Jewish Properties . Properties . I honestly dont know. And i think, you know, mark, this is the technicality. Half a year ago, there was a rally in central london. There were thousands of people there. We have this video and i think that it was all over the media and in speaker after speaker , they call speaker after speaker, they call to the destruction and the annihilation of the jewish state and the crowd was applauding. And by the way, this rally was secured by the london police. So secured by the london police. So it means it got the legitimacy to do that. I think that those kind of actions are red flags to the to the British Society, not only to the Jewish Community and only to the Jewish Community and only from past few days. We only from the past few days. We got like a video from Manchester University in which the head of the Palestinian Society stands behind her. Again, hundreds of students. And she basically students. And she basically telling to the camera, the joy and satisfaction, quote , they and satisfaction, quote, they they feel due to the massacre. Obviously, she didnt define it as a massacre in israel. I hold as a massacre in israel. I hold another print screen of correspondence between students in Kings College laughing that 40 babies were killed. And i 40 babies were killed. And i have those print screens. And i have those print screens. And i think that basically, you know , think that basically, you know, universities, schools , these are universities, schools, these are the production line of the next generation of the uk. This is not only an issue for the jewish people. This not only an issue for the jewish people. This is something that should concern any decent british people for the future. British people for the future. And as i said, i think that this time we cannot settle in ceremonies , in grief and in ceremonies, in grief and in statements. We need to see deeds statements. We need to see deeds and we need to see legislation that basically change this reality from the core basis. Reality from the core basis. Isaac, is there a difference between those supporting palestine and waving the palestinian flag in london, manchester and elsewhere . New york tonight . Is there york tonight . Is there a difference between them and those supporting hamas . So those supporting hamas . So i would judge it according to the content and not according to symbol. I appreciate that there are people who wants to protest for a palestinian state. Its their democratic right. They can do democratic right. They can do it. I think that the red line is where you are inciting to violence. And when you call to violence. And when you call to a destruction of a country or a state, no matter what country , state, no matter what country, whether its israel, ukraine or sweden, if you like, i think that that is something that should not be part of the proper discourse in the public sphere. Discourse in the public sphere. And thats how i judge it. I judge it according to according to content. Now, those people, to content. Now, those people, unfortunately , in universities unfortunately, in universities who cause to the destruction of the state of israel and, you know, they have this famous chant, river to the sea palestine will be free. I think that what happened on saturday is fulfilment of this is the fulfilment of this slogan. Thats what they want to happen. And that is very concerned. And thats the way i judge it. Would you like to see those celebrating what hamas have done in this country being arrested . In this country being arrested . Look , i dont want to give look, i dont want to give a suggestion to the police and to the government. Thats not my area of professionalism. But i area of professionalism. But i think that , again, as i said, think that, again, as i said, its in the interest of the British Society and that the British Society and that the British Government to remove those kind of texts from the pubuc those kind of texts from the public sphere. And they will public sphere. And they will choose what kind of steps they want to take in order to do that legislation, enforcement. I legislation, enforcement. I think that the fact that that the majority of the Jewish Community thought twice today if to leave their home and again it happens in the uk , a glorious happens in the uk, a glorious democracy that is a significant red flag to the society and we cannot treat this day as if its another day of tension. And tomorrow this wave will be go away. Away. Writing in the telegraph today, their columnist madeline grant said that if britain is no longer safe for jewish people , longer safe for jewish people, then britain is finished. Would you agree . You agree . I absolutely agree, because i think that what will happen to the Jewish Community will continue to happen or might happen eventually to other minorities. And that is a huge concern. And thats why i think that, again, its a its an issue for the jewish for the British Society and not only for the Jewish Community. Yes. I mean, can you tell us about what some of your family members or friends are going through at the moment under this heightened tension here in the uk . Have you got family members or friends who are afraid to go out . Yeah. Look, im as you can tell from my british accent, im an israeli and i remember in many israeli groups and also jewish groups and, you know, i see the discourse. People are asking and advising each other, should they send my kid to School Tomorrow . Should i go to work . What should they do . What what kind of Protection Measures do you took . I can show you the Text Messages that i got from israel , from my family, asking israel, from my family, asking me not to leave my house because they heard that it is going to be dangerous here. So i think that the situation that the jewish cannot safe now jewish people cannot be safe now in their homeland and also cannot be safe in britain and maybe in other western countries is again, its a warning sign to every Decent Society today is the jewish people. And tomorrow it will be any other minority. And thats something that we should fight against. Isaac tzarfati, thank you so much for us. The much forjoining us. The executive director of stand with us uk apology is for the change in video quality. Theyre getting the andy warhol treatment, but the message from Isaac Tzarfati was a very grave one, which is that at the moment britain is not safe for jewish people, with many families afraid to leave the house complete outrageous in a modern and Free Democratic society. And Free Democratic society. Coming up with the pundits next, has the behaviour of captain tom moores family. Has the behaviour of captain tom moores family. He has the behaviour of captain tom moores family. He destroyed moores family. He destroyed pubuc moores family. He destroyed public trust in charities and also as a top politician defects from the snp to the tories. Is it a betrayal of voters to change party . Dont forget at 10 00 in mitake, at 10 00 ill be dealing with the bbc, the fa and the premier league, who i believe have completely misread the situation in israel. Lots to come. The pundits are next. When getting a good nights sleep is a struggle, try nytol herbal. Made with natural Plant Extracts that have been used for decades. Owl hoots. Nytol herbal is used to help you drift off gently. For a refreshing, restful nights sleep, say good nytol. Well, we already live in a city with cameras on every street corner. Its called. London well say many emails coming in about whats happening in the middle east. Kathy says, hi, mark. People should remember that not all jews support the Israeli Government and not all supporters of the palestinians supporters of the palestinians support hamas. That anyone should celebrate the death of a fellow human being is just so sad. And kathy, thank you for sad. And kathy, thank you for that. Ian sad. And kathy, thank you for that. Ian says. Mark paris police have been using tear gas and Water Cannons to disperse dangerous crowds. Surely its time that our police did the same . Della says. Hi mark. The fact that Jewish Schools require protection now , now and Security Protection now, now and security all year round tells you all you need to know about these anti semitic animals that we have allowed into our country. Have allowed into our country. The british Jewish Community has every right to go about their daily lives safely, and we must end this hatred against them. End this hatred against them. Lets have a look. Pat says. Hi, lets have a look. Pat says. Hi, mark. My understanding is that government funding has been made available for islamic places of worship since 2016. So its not just jewish institutions that are under threat. There is a big difference between being anti semitic and anti zionist. Difference between being anti semitic and anti zionist. And semitic and anti zionist. And last but not least , for now, last but not least, for now, david says , good evening, mark. David says, good evening, mark. My father and hundreds of thousands of british men and women gave six years of their lives fighting against the scourge the and their death scourge of the and their death cult to free this world from fascism and secure the safety and well being of the jewish nation. Nation. The allies prevailed against the axis. The new world included a homeland for the jews and the safety of the jewish people. Israel was hard fought for by americans , hard fought for by americans, british, french and all nations of the free world. If you do not subscribe to this british value , subscribe to this british value, then you denigrate the sacrifice of my fathers generation. It is absolutely untenable that jews cannot walk the streets of britain in safety. Bbc hang your head for no words , says david. Head for no words, says david. Well, look, ill be dealing with the bbc and the fa and the premier league at 10 00. In my take at ten, i think they have massively let the country down and they have let jewish people down. Ill be with that down. Ill be dealing with that at wont to at ten. You wont want to miss it. Now look at it. Lets now take a look at live pictures from gaza. And at live pictures from gaza. And at the moment, a dark sky. But that deadune the moment, a dark sky. But that deadline of 9 00 has passed by which time the israeli have advised people in gaza to head south. Its a population of 1. 1 Million People in the north. And theyve been leaving on trucks and in cars and by foot. Plenty still there. And at the moment, the night sky very still, but perhaps not for long. Okay. Well, well come back to this story very shortly. But reacting to the other stories of the day, my wonderful pundits this evening. Reporter and broadcaster Stephanie Takyi author and journalist Laura Dodsworth and criminal barrister and former conservative mp. Though he likes to keep that bit quiet. Oh, jerry hayes. Ha though he likes to keep that bit quiet. Oh, jerry hayes. Ha now the daughter of captain sir tom moore has admitted her family kept profits from three books that hed written reported by the sun to be £800,000. Hannah ingram moore told talktvs piers morgan that her father wanted to get the profits from the book sales and give them straight to the family. Sir tom, who died in the family. Sir tom, who died in february 2021, became famous when he raised £38 million for Nhs Charities during the first covid lockdown. When he did that covid lockdown. When he did that by walking 100 laps of his garden before his 100th birthday day while his legacy of raising millions of pounds for Nhs Charities is not in doubt, controversies around the charity have endured. They began as the charities watchdog. The Charity Commission announced its investigation into the captain Tom Foundation after concerns were raised over its accounts and governance. The investigation came after the charity paid more than £50,000 to Companies Run by mrs. Ingram moore and her husband and captain tom moores daughter told morgan last night that she wishes shed never taken the £85,000 annual salary to run her Fathers Foundation and she defended the construction of a luxury spa in his name , which luxury spa in his name, which she built on her own property and which the local authority have told her to demolish. Now, have told her to demolish. Now, theres no evidence of wrongdoing here, but has the negative publicity around captain tom moores family destroyed public trust in charities . Stephanie . Charities . Stephanie . I dont think so. Charities . Stephanie . I dont think so. I think people in general are quite sceptical when they are giving money to charities. They like to do it because they want to feel like theyre donating to a good cause. But i think with most charities, theres always this lack urgency of lack of transfer urgency of where single pound is where every single pound is going to a e sir tom moores work will always be there. His legacy will remain. His children , even though she did say thats where his wish is. Unfortunately, hes died , so he unfortunately, hes died, so he cant back those claims. But i think in general, i think people always have this little element of doubt when they are donating to charities. To charities. Yeah. Laura, what do you think about this . I mean, its not a good look, is it, for the legacy of tom moore . No i mean, i agree with a lot of what youve said, i wouldnt youve just said, but i wouldnt say legacy does survive youve just said, but i wouldnt say intact, legacy does survive youve just said, but i wouldnt say intact, because does survive this intact, because unfortunately , theres a tarnish now. And think that whether the and i think that whether the family have just managed things in a very ham fisted way because theyre not experienced the charity or whether its bit charity or whether its a bit grubby greedy, it does grubby and greedy, it does tarnish his really fantastic legacy. You know, he was a war hero. And so thats a pity in terms of whether this changes our attitudes towards charity. Our attitudes towards charity. See, i do prefer to give to Smaller Charities when im more confident that the money will make an impact. But what really made me feel like that isnt isnt, sir captain moores isnt, sir captain tom moores foundation. Its. Its oxfam. Do foundation. Its. Its oxfam. Do you remember oxfam in haiti . Im you remember oxfam in haiti . Im not even going to say it because its so revolting. And then that its so revolting. And then that lovely sexual abuse. Yeah, especially in Community Sexual assault and not just oxfam using other charities. Oxfam using other charities. Yeah. Yeah. And allegations around save the children, prostitutes and maybe underage Vulnerable Women and girls from refugee camps just revolting. And then, of just revolting. And then, of course, this year, they were or they released that really unpleasant video about transphobia that included an image of jk rowling. They denied it was jk rowling, but everyone knew it was. So i think i think the tarnish has come off charities while. Charities for quite a while. Unfortunate indeed. Do wonder where your and you do wonder where your money going, as you said, money is going, as you said, because charity, because if its a big charity, they large central they often have large central london, which people dont london, hqs, which people dont really want to be paying for, do they . Yeah. Or spa pools in the garden. Well, exactly. Well, exactly. Whats your overview right. Whats your overview of case . Do you of this particular case . Do you think . Is there case to answer here . Yeah , its a load of old yeah, its a load of old rubbish. Its just typical media. One of these media. And im not one of these people the media for people who blame the media for everything ingrams everything wrong. The ingrams laws just by their name are achingly middle class and people just think, oh dear, look at these people. Theyre grubby. These people. Theyre grubby. She was earning £85,000 a year. Yeah, he raised 38 million. She got through about that to run a charity. Exactly. And then he got. A £600,000 for a book. He got. A £600,000 for a book. He wrote. Okay. Big deal. He said wrote. Okay. Big deal. He said that was for them, for the family. They were looking after family. They were looking after him for years. Oh lets grow up about this. I think, however, it about this. I think, however, it was actually i think the figure quoted by the sun is 800,800. Youre quite right. Almost £1 million. Would that money have been accrued if it wasnt perception of wasnt for the perception of captain tom moore as a charitable figure . Charitable figure . Youve just said it perception. This is the perception. This is the perception. This is the perception of the press. Were perception of the press. Were reason we are talking about it now is because its been in the press, because theyve said, look, these in ground laws, oh, we cant prove anything. Of course were not suggesting for one moment that theyre dishonest. Tainted dishonest. But it feels tainted and well, thats a load of old rubbish and they should be very careful indeed. Careful indeed. What do you think about the Charity Sector in this country . Do bloated . Do you think its bloated . Do you wasteful . You think its wasteful . Honest. I dont know. To be honest. Youre right. Were youre quite right. Were talking about oxfam and some of the things that. Do you think there should be more . You know, youve got the Charity Commission. Youve got the yes of the Charity Commission. Yes of course, should be course, there should be transparency, meant transparency, but its meant to be lots and be transparency. But lots and lots and lots of people in this country are giving really giving because they believe i dont like the chuggers in the streets so much, but they generally believe i give to a number of charities and i hope my money is going for those causes that i care about. But dont lets dont lets just say has the Charity Sector been tainted because of this . It hasnt. Because of this . It hasnt. Do you think charities are overplaying their hand now . I mean, you get sort of door to door visits, dont you . Which i think unacceptable be think is unacceptable to be ringing youve got ringing the doorbell. Youve got chuggers street with the chuggers in the street with the clipboard direct clipboard wanting your direct debit, and then youve also got youve other aspects youve got sort of other aspects , like if you go, for example, to supermarket , youre to the supermarket, youre sometimes asked offer sometimes asked to offer a voluntary donation. When you when the cash when you pay on the cash machine, of machine, there are a lot of scammers as in the of scammers as in the name of charity and i think were quite modern these days. Charity and i think were quite modern i1ese days. Charity and i think were quite modern i1ese cmaybe charities and i think maybe charities do update their do need to update their strategies and they do need to develop how they are communicate with their well, are with their donors. Well, are they pushy . With their donors. Well, are the� is pushy . With their donors. Well, are the� is it pushy . With their donors. Well, are the� is it is ushy . With their donors. Well, are the� is it is ithy . With their donors. Well, are the� is it is it pushy when you is it is it pushy when you when you go to tesco and they want an extra £25 . I think it is a bit too pushy then. Its and its then. Well, its and its more than actually. Then. Well, its and its more tha its actually. Then. Well, its and its more tha its zgnfdsmg because when then. Well, its and its more tha itsputtingifig because when then. Well, its and its more tha itsputting change|use when then. Well, its and its more tha itsputting change into when youre putting change into a bucket till , you bucket next to the till, you make deliberate conscious make a very deliberate conscious choice these choice to do it. Yes. These buttons till really buttons on the till are really confusing and i find myself like, which one yes, which like, which one is yes, which one its like the online one is no . Its like the online choice on choice architecture. You go on websites, youre always being tricked like you tricked into. Like you, you think youve declined all the cookies through this long cookies you go through this long form you realise youve form and then you realise youve accepted them all. And thats what forms at the what these charity forms at the till a bit like well. Till are a bit like as well. Well, worse than that. And i think the big story. Think this is the big story. The pushiness of charities. My pushiness of charities. Now, my wife , you know, donates to wife, you know, donates to charities so you say she was pushy. Youd be sleeping on your own tonight. Youd be sleeping on your own tonight. National tv. You just dont just wouldnt be cancel. But you do get people ringing up and saying, oh, youre paying £3 a month for this. Oh, why didnt you put it up to five . Why didnt you do this . And there is this perpetual push and that is wrong that that is the scandal. Thats whats tainting charities. Briefly, laura, your brilliant book, a state of fear, is all about behavioural psychology. During the pandemic , psychology. During the pandemic, theres a bit of nudging going on with these charity donations. Isnt there . Because i was in a cosmetics shop a few weeks ago and i just bought some hand cream they said they said to cream and they said they said to me, like to make me, would you like to make a donation charity . Now that donation to charity . Now at that point shamed into point youre sort of shamed into saying, and saying, yes, arent you . And i think step too far. Think thats a step too far. I think thats a step too far. I think so. Youve got a team of people behind you. Did you see that bloke at the front . He said no to giving to charity, there. And actually next bit and actually my next bit free. Mind more about and actually my next bit free. You mind more about and actually my next bit free. You identify more about and actually my next bit free. You identify andwre about and actually my next bit free. You identify and resistyut how you identify and resist these like its these things. Its like its like the button im talking about. A about. If something is a default, more likely about. If something is a defau it. More likely about. If something is a defau it. So more likely about. If something is a defau it. So when more likely about. If something is a defau it. So when the more likely about. If something is a defau it. So when the defaultzely about. If something is a defau it. So when the default isy to do it. So when the default is you if somebody you round up or if somebody says, in of other says, will you in front of other people, obviously thats going to appeal to your ego you to appeal to your ego and you dont by dont want to be shamed by saying and you the saying no. And you know, the Competition Markets Authority has investigated these Competition Markets Authority has of investigated these Competition Markets Authority has of buttonsestigated these Competition Markets Authority has of buttons because these Competition Markets Authority has of buttons because theye sorts of buttons because they are unfair. I dont think theyre looking so much in terms of the charitable sector. But the way people guided the way that people are guided into that might not be into decisions that might not be optimum for them. Optimum for them. Yeah. Too. Right. Interesting stuff. Well, look at lots more to come in my take at ten, the bbc, the premier league and the Football Association are deafening silence about deafening in their silence about the deaths innocent israeli the deaths of innocent israeli civilians. They bring shame on our country. See . But first, our country. See . But first, well head back to tel aviv in israel and get the latest on whats happening in the middle east. Dont go anywhere well , it take well, it take and take a ten. Well, it take and take a ten. At 10 00, i will be dealing with the bbc and the fa and the premier league who have been definitely silent when it comes to the suffering of israelis. But get more now on but lets get more now on developments the middle east, developments in the middle east, where retaliatory action by israel in gaza against the Terror Group Hamas was expected to begin at 9 00 uk time live from tel aviv. Were now joined by journalist india naphtali and emily schrader. And i spoke to both of you on saturday. Last saturday, of course , when this saturday, of course, when this awful story began. And india awful story began. And india last time we spoke , we were last time we spoke, we were joined by your partner , hananya, joined by your partner, hananya, who i understand has now been called up by the Israeli Military. Military. Thats right. Hes often it was an incredibly difficult moment for us. We are newlyweds. We were just got married this yean we were just got married this year. So you know, as newlyweds, i never expected that our first year apart. Thats my husband of just eight months, would be drafted and sent away from me. Drafted and sent away from me. But, you know, one thing he told me before he left, he hugged me and he said, india, i am not just going to defend my country. Im going to defend my family. And my home, because the first thing the Hamas Terrorists did when they came and infiltrated israel was to slaughter and massacre families. Massacre families. So what was his mood when he left . It sounds like it was defiant. It he felt such a sense defiant. It he felt such a sense of duty. Of duty. I knew that , you know , on one i knew that, you know, on one hand, you would think that when someone is called to duty, that they dont want to go, thats, wow, im scared. Im afraid. But wow, im scared. Im afraid. But he its almost as if he he he he its almost as if he he wanted to go. He went with such honour and just dignity and just wanting to serve the country. And we can see that through. So many israelis. Theres even People Volunteer cheering to come and serve. Right now. Theres people taking emergency flights back. To the theyre not flights back. To the theyre not being called by the home front command. Theyre coming back by command. Theyre coming back by choice. Choice. Do you know in what capacity kwasi hananya will be serving in the military . The military . So hananya serves in a Tank Division , so he will likely i am division, so he will likely i am not certain where he is right now or what hes doing, but he is in a Tank Division and he was back in 2014 when he was active duty. He was actually inside the duty. He was actually inside the tank loading artillery. So that is likely what he is working on right now. Right now. Emily, the last time we spoke, the mood in israel was one of abject terror , misery one of abject terror, misery upset and fear. How are things tonight . Well, i wouldnt say the mood has changed that much. Looking has changed that much. Looking at the recent events as the numbers have been counted for casualties, for injuries , it casualties, for injuries, it does seem to be more grim, even if more secure, than what we initially feared. And there are initially feared. And there are over just over 1400 that have been confirmed dead, over 3200 injured. We havent had any word on the hostages. And i think on the hostages. And i think yesterday was probably one of the most difficult days for israelis as we started to hear the absolute Horror Stories of what happened on saturday from first hand accounts, there were children who were tortured, who were tied together and burned alive. There were babies that were executed. The idf reported that they found approximately 40 babies who had been killed. Some of them burned alive. Some of them even decapitated, as well as other casualties, which were decapitate. And we have decapitate. And we have continued to see rocket fire very heavily throughout the south. And in addition to that, we have seen several times coming from the north, including today , which we saw gaza fire today, which we saw gaza fire rockets that actually reached the north. So it does seem that things are escalating thing. However, at the same time , we do however, at the same time, we do see that the idf is taking a significant action against hamas terror groups. We saw today that the idf dropped leaflets to warn almost 1 million gazans to leave almost1 million gazans to leave northern gaza and enter southern gaza. Northern gaza and enter southern gaza. Now, israels goal with gaza. Now, israels goal with this is in order to protect as many civilian lives as possible. Of course , this is incredibly of course, this is incredibly difficult when youre dealing with a terrorist organisation of course, with the backing of the Islamic Republic of iran that continues to target civilians themselves , including, by the themselves, including, by the way, their own civilians. Hamas is known for using human shields throughout gaza. They often plant their military sites, weapons caches, infrastructure , weapons caches, infrastructure, other activities. They will conduct in the middle of civilian population. As im civilian population. As im talking about, residential neighbourhood , mosques, schools. Neighbourhood, mosques, schools. In fact, multiple times in 2014, we saw that hamas had stored rockets inside unwra schools , rockets inside unwra schools, childrens schools. Three times in one operation. So we know how they work. Theyre committing war crimes left, right and sideways. And that makes it sideways. And that makes it incredibly difficult for israel to take action. At the same time, we cant apologise for taking action. In fact, the opposite. Israel has has to take out hamas. We have to. This has gone on long enough and its only getting worse from here. And when it gets worse for us, its also getting worse for palestinians. Dont forget that. And do the israeli people have confidence in the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. I mean, Benjamin Netanyahu. I mean, i think that there is serious doubt right now in the country is not nearly as politically divided as it was even prior to this operation in which you saw a stark divide between being supportive of this government or opposing it. That is not the conversation happening right now, nor should it be. Its not the time to discuss whether the Prime Minister is fit or unfit. That being said, initial polling did indicate that the vast majority of the public does feel that the Prime Minister after this should step down, remains to be seen how israelis will feel at the end of this operation. Operation. Well, what about the potential humanitarian impact of an israeli retaliation . An israeli retaliation . I mean, its my personal view that that israel has a right to defend itself and that is the position of the uk government. Position of the uk government. But is it weighing on peoples minds in tel aviv . The impact this will have in gaza for. Oh, absolutely. I mean, for me personally, i think its absolutely heartbreaking to see some of the scenes from gaza. And whats even more frustrating is that it doesnt have to be that way. It is that way because were dealing with a terrorist organisation that is determined to kill as many civilians as possible. And by the way, that goes for palestinians , too. Goes for palestinians, too. Theyre not interested in protecting palestinian lives and the reason that israel dropped those leaflets today is precisely to protect and to minimise civilian casualties. And weve seen that same behaviour from the idf in every single operation that they conduct in gaza. Israel does everything that they can in order to preserve civilian lives and not to have more casualties than absolutely necessary. At than absolutely necessary. At the same time, we have seen a push from Civil Society yesterday and today, as well as some calls from the idf on this issue, urging the un to take action. But we have seen public pressure to encourage egypt and the arab league, as well as the arab world general, take arab world in general, to take action in for the palestinians to help provide them support or safe passage through the rafah crossing through egypt. However, crossing through egypt. However, egypt has rejected those calls thus far, and hamas has in fact tried to block palestinians from leaving the northern gaza strip, including by, according to reports from gaza, by blocking some of the roads , india finally some of the roads, india finally coming back to you. Your husband, hanan hanan, has just been called up to the Israeli Military forces. If anyones just joining us, are you hoping to be in touch with him . Do you have a way of communicating with him . Well, thank god i get the occasional text to calm my nerves. I mean, i think anyone who has a deployed spouse right now is just waiting for that next text just to confirm that we can go to bed knowing that theyre okay. Indeed well, my heart goes out to you, india , and i wish you well. You, india, and i wish you well. My thanks to india naphtali and emily schrader. Its obvious a very, very tough situation in tel aviv. Thank you for joining us. More more to come. A very busy 10 00 hour. Weve got the papers hot off the press. And in my take at ten, the bbc, the premier league and the Football Association have completely misread the situation. The fa and the premier league have been deafening in their silence about the deaths of innocent israeli civilians. Theyve talked about conflict on both sides , an conflict on both sides, an escalating situation. Why cant escalating situation. Why cant you say we stand by israel and israels right to defend herself . They bring shame on our country. That is my take at ten. Country. That is my take at ten. And what about the bbc who cannot bring themselves to use the word terrorist . Its not a word. Im afraid of. If you know, even 1 of what happened on the 7th of october, last saturday, you would agree that these were acts of terror. So these were acts of terror. So the bbc, the fa and the premier league will be dealt with in just a few minutes. Ill see you very shortly its exactly 10 00 on television. On radio and online in the United Kingdom. And across the world. This is mark dolan tonight. Now, civilians are fleeing northern gaza by car on the back of trucks and on foot after an israeli warning that civilians should move south. About 1. 1 Million People living in Northern Areas have been told to leave ahead of an expected ground offensive by israeli forces. Plus, possible israeli forces. Plus, possible airstrikes as well. Now, that deadune airstrikes as well. Now, that deadline to flee the north expired an hour ago at 9 00. Uk time, and that is a live picture of gaza city. That is the skyline. And we are expecting that skyline to light up with rockets in the hours to come because the Israeli Government, the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has said that he will respond to the terror attacks which began on saturday, the 7th of october, with full force as israels military objective is to wipe out hamas. Israels military objective is to wipe out hamas. These are to wipe out hamas. These are live pictures from new york city in the United States. And this in the United States. And this is a pro palestine demonstration in the big apple in front of the un building. So emotions running un building. So emotions running high across the world, not just in the middle east, but across the west. As well. Speaking of emotions, in my take at ten, the bbc, the premier league and the Football Association are deafening in their silence about the deaths of innocent israeli civilians. They bring shame on our country, in particular the premier league and the fa have a case to answer. They have complete neatly misread the situation and let down jewish people in this country.

Of course, all of the latest from gaza and israel. That deadline for people in north gaza to head south has passed an hour and six minutes ago, 9 00. Well bring you the latest as we get it. But first, my take. At ten. It takes first, my take. At ten. It takes a crisis for someone to reveal themselves , for better or for themselves, for better or for worse. The silence following the worse. The silence following the terror attacks on innocent israelis. Citizens from the israelis. Citizens from the usual suspect, right on political commentators and celebrity djs has been deafening. These media types with millions of followers and millions in the bank, normally live on platforms like twitter, signalling their virtue by backing the latest campaign. Black lives matter, lgbtq plus rights and just stop oil, but just stop terrorism doesnt seem to feature in their worldview. It seems the annihilation of 260 people at a Music Festival , all people at a Music Festival, all the kidnapping of a holocaust survivor, the beheading of babies, the burning of human bodies , and the abject terror of bodies, and the abject terror of jewish People Living in this country. Does not merit comments just a disgusting and mealy mouthed call for a ceasefire on both sides by equivocating in this manner, household name woke celebrities are picking a side andits celebrities are picking a side and its not the side of the innocent israelis who were dragged out of their homes , dragged out of their homes, raped, spat at, and shot dead by these mediaeval monsters. This may not be their intention, but the unfortunate perception is that theyre literally siding with the terrorists. Thank god with the terrorists. Thank god im on this channel where i can actually use that word terrorist. Unlikely to be nominees for this weeks read the room award, the bbc have dug in their heels, refusing to refer to hamas as terrorists , refer to hamas as terrorists, even though they are designated as such by the British Government here is the defence secretary , grant shapps, who is secretary, grant shapps, who is jewish, calling out the bbc this morning on the radio four today programme. The israelis are trying to get hold of the Hamas Terrorists who you dont seem to be particularly interested in and seems to refuse to and the bbc seems to refuse to call terrorists, even though the British Parliament has legislated that terrorists, which is a question like the bbc answer yet have you not seen any of the coverage on the bbc of the atrocities , the dead, the the atrocities, the dead, the injured, the survivors . Injured, the survivors . Yes, i have. Yes, i have. So how can you say that were not interested in in those atrocities . I read i think it was a very unfortunate article. I think it was by john simpson explaining why, although the British Parliament has legislated hamas as a proscribed organisation and as a proscribed organisation and a terrorist, the bbc thinks its not appropriate to call them terrorists. Are you aware of the ofcom code and the rules for all broadcasters . Broadcasters . Of course. Of course. Of course. The refusal of the bbc to use the word terrorist in relation to those hamas monsters is an ongoing insult to jewish people. Ongoing insult to jewish people. I would expect that crank Jeremy Corbyn to take this position of course i would. Jeremy corbyn is the man who called hamas. His friend and who lost the labour party whip because of his response to the equalities and Human Rights Commission in relation to anti semitism. But relation to anti semitism. But where is saint gary lineker in all this . A man who in the past has invoked memories of the holocaust , has invoked memories of the holocaust, comparing has invoked memories of the holocaust , comparing suella holocaust, comparing Suella Braverman efforts to tackle illegal immigration in as redolent of 1930 germany, but no condemnation of actual behaviour and the worst attack on jewish people since the holocaust. People since the holocaust. Perhaps he was busy washing another bottle of just for men charcoal edition into his hair. His only comment on the tragedy playing out in israel was to retweet and applaud an extraordinarily offensive tweet from the premier League Whilst condemning the violence against innocent civilians. Theres no mention in the statement that israel was invaded and or that war crimes against jewish people have been committed and instead they hide behind the cloak of snake oil language like escalating crisis. Which takes escalating crisis. Which takes us back to the bbcs narrative of conflict on both sides. Let of conflict on both sides. Let me correct the bbc and the premier league and all of these previously woke celebrities who seem to have forgotten their twitter password. Hamas are a Terror Organisation , asian, who Terror Organisation, asian, who invaded israel , israel are invaded israel, israel are defending themselves , which the defending themselves, which the British Government have confirmed they have a right to do. Now, in the past, the do. Now, in the past, the premier league have been absolutely right to call out the evil of racism, particularly the kick racism out of football campaign, which i thought was brilliant. Campaign, which i thought was brilliant. But but their obsession with the highly political and divisive black lives matter movement, which calls for the defunding of the police, the end of the nuclear family, and a communist economic model all demonstrates the selective morality of the woke left. Dont take my word for selective morality of the woke left. Dont take my word for it. Whilst the premier league took the knee to this corrupt and Dangerous Organisation , it has Dangerous Organisation, it has revealed its own true colours celebrating hamas is evil actions. In one particular actions. In one particular tweet, an official blm account in the United States showed a picture, an image , an picture, an image, an illustration of a hamas terrorist put on a parachute fly ing into israeli territory to kill 260 people at a peace Music Festival. This is the same blm to which the premier league has devoted hundreds of hours of publicity and now they cannot stand up for israel. Most stand up for israel. Most egregiously, the Football Association refused to shine the colours of the israeli flag onto the arch of wembley. Even though these colours have adorned ten downing streets and many other pubuc downing streets and many other public buildings in the country. Football has been dripping in woke ideology for years with rainbow laces even though they happily participated in the world cup in qatar, where its illegal to be gay. Its a sport which encourages thousands of people to gamble money they havent got aggressively market junk food and alcohol rinses the fans to pay the players. A small fortune and pretends to be so inclusive and caring , but has inclusive and caring, but has double standards which are eye watering amid tragic scenes of horror in israel, the football authorities have done sweet fa. Tackling racism seems sweet fa. Tackling racism seems to involve leaving jewish people on the bench. The beautiful game just turned ugly. Thats my just turned ugly. Thats my opinion. Whats yours . Mark at opinion. Whats yours . Mark at gbnews. Com. Ill get to your emails shortly. Earlier on this evening. Gb news is own reporter joe kasper was at wembley to get reaction from football fans pnor reaction from football fans prior to the england australia game. Game. It was a terrorist attack at the end of the day. So even regardless of whats going on between them because it was a terrorist attack, thats why israeli its a terrible situation in the middle east and it has been for decades. It has been for decades. But i think theyve done right to just avoid the issue neither because as we want to be neutral , either both or no neutral, either both flags or no flags. Flags. We support israel. And i yes, we support israel. And i think its good to show that i really dont know whats best here. I really dont know what to do for the best this do for the best in this situation. Situation. I think we should show our support , but only right. Support, but its only right. Yes. Yes. Yes. If its good enough for downing street, why is it not good enough for Wembley Stadium . Let me know your thoughts , mark let me know your thoughts, mark at lets get the at cbnnews. Com. Lets get the views now of reporter and broadcaster Stephanie Takyi, author journalist laura author and journalist Laura Dodsworth and criminal barrister and former conservative mp jerry hayes. And former conservative mp jerry hayes. Laura, can i start with hayes. Laura, can i start with you . Your reaction to wembleys you . Your reaction to wembleys decision not to shine the israeli flag colours onto the famous wembley arch . Famous wembley arch . Spineless. And they have no moral compass whatsoever. They lit up their arch and the colours of the ukraine flag, blue and yellow. Good also red, white and blue. For when paris had terror attacks. Theyll light up in rainbow colours for pride, but they cant light up in blue and white for the worst terrorist attack since 9 11. Its disgusting. And actually , its disgusting. And actually, you know, the last week has been such an eye opener for me. Ive been really ashamed at how some british people have responded because while the loss of innocent civilian life on each side is equally tragic, there is no equality in whats happening. No equality in whats happening. You know, this was started by hamas committing awful, you know, this was started by hamas committing awful , awful, hamas committing awful, awful, atrocious , barbaric acts of atrocious, barbaric acts of terrorism. You know, you either terrorism. You know, you either think that mowing down kids in a festival and kidnapping the literal elderly , survivors of literal elderly, survivors of the holocaust and burning and beheading babies and children is terrorism or you dont. Its pretty simple. And if you do think its terrorism, then you stand in solidarity with them. Some of those football fans there, i have to say, i think theyre a bit confused. And you showed that really awful, heinous cartoon of the paraglider that blm shared. I mean, theyve really shown their colours. Terrible organisation. Colours. Terrible organisation. And its not just them. There were student unions in this country that shared the same kind cartoon, sort of kind of cartoon, the sort of people who normally condemn hate speech, whatever that is , wont speech, whatever that is, wont condemn acts of real hate. Condemn acts of real hate. Jerry hayes, the head of the israeli Football Association , israeli Football Association, has condemned the actions of the engush has condemned the actions of the english fa for not supporting the israeli people and jewish people in the uk. Your reaction to this . Im just horrified. Im not im just horrified. Im not surprised. Butjust im just horrified. Im not surprised. But just horrified. Im horrified with the bbc and im horrified with the bbc and im one of these people who supports the bbc. I defend the bbc. I dont want them to be defunded. And. But what is the defunded. And. But what is the matter with these people . These guys, as you rightly said , are guys, as you rightly said, are terrorists. They committed appalling acts of atrocity. We appalling acts of atrocity. We did this for ukraine, didnt we . We actually put up the colours of ukraine. People in their homes put up the flag of ukraine. Why shouldnt we just for once say , okay, well, we may for once say, okay, well, we may not like the state of israel . I dont particularly like the state of israel, but dont confuse it with the jews. Dont confuse it with the jews. Dont confuse it with the jews. Dont confuse it with the jews. Dont confuse it as people are doing and saying , well, because israel and saying, well, because israel has behaved badly in the past, you can do anything because what are they saying . Jews jews dont count. Now doesnt that have a resonance . Does not have a resonance . Does not have a resonance all through history. And it sends a chill down my spine. Spine. Now, the bbc are very clear that theyre not using language like terrorism because they want to follow the broadcasting and journalistic code to which they must adhere. John simpson , one of the most john simpson, one of the most experienced journalists in the country, of course, a legend , a country, of course, a legend, a Foreign Correspondent for the bbc, has stood by what the bbc have done in not using that emotive language, he said. Its terribly important for the credibility of the bbcs journalism not to be seen to take sides. Stephanie what about take sides. Stephanie what about the fa then . And also the premier League Staying out of politics now . Thats fine except in in the past that theyve got very involved in politics. Mark, in this situation youre if you do and youre if youre if you do and youre if you dont. While i think we should call a spade a spade and what happened if hamass attack against israel is terrorism, whats been frustrating going over the past week is people forcing people to pick a side. Its more complex. More people who havent been aware of whats been happening in the middle east, especially between israel and palestine. Palestine and people are making themselves more knowledgeable on it. And its hard to pick a side because people are making it out. If you support means support palestine, it means youre the youre supporting the terrorists. Thats not the case. People make out if youre supporting israel, youre turning a blind eye to all the atrocities which theyve done over the past 75 years. Okay, its common. Lex, its not that complex , to be honest. Mark its complex, to be honest. Mark its not really. Jerry jerry will do. Its not that. Stephanie its not complex as jerry and jerry, we will pick this up at 1030 with the papers. So hold that thought. Mark at gbnews. Com. Whats your view . Gbnews. Com. Whats your view . And next up, why is nigel farage celebrating . Find out these polls in the coming days or whether hes going to hold his nerve. His nerve. Its time now for the newsmaker and gb news star nigel farage is celebrating victory after being offered a bank account by lloyds bank after being sensation dumped for his political views by coots. The scandal saw the resignation of the parent company. Natwests chief executive , and the story chief executive, and the story drew attention to the many thousands of people who have seen their account abruptly closed. So is this a victory for free speech and the beginning of the end of cancel culture . Lets speak to the spectators brilliant columnist and the star of Alexander Marshall live on tv on youtube. Alexandra marshall. Alexandra, good news for nigel. And actually for lots of ordinary people. You know, id ordinary people. You know, id like to be as optimistic as you , like to be as optimistic as you, but im not completely convinced. I think this was a moment of panic for the tories and for all conservative politicians. And they saw de banking of they saw this de banking of nigel farage and thought, oh heck, were going to be out of power soon and the banks will be able to bank all of us and therell be absolutely able to bank all of us and thecan be absolutely able to bank all of us and thecan be aboututely able to bank all of us and thecan be about it. Ly we can do about it. The tory. Hence the tory. Hence the tory. Sprung into action. They were sprung into action. They were sprung into action. They were sprung into action. They tried to lean on the banks and banks this banks and the banks had this Massive Campaign against them Massive Pr Campaign against them and backed down theyve and they backed down and theyve reinstated nigel farage. There is no evidence that but there is no evidence that either the politicians or the people at coots or any other bank, for that matter, actually care about free speech. They sat down and they produced all these documents and they colluded to and find they colluded to try and find a way to debunk not just farage, but hundreds of other people. But hundreds of other people. They do not value free speech. And i dont think theyve actually learned the lesson here about should value free about why we should value free speech. Taught us is speech. All this is taught us is that we have an extremely long way in your country and in way to go in your country and in my country about making these institutions and politicians value free speech rather than running frightened from one social issue to another. Indeed, its not just banks, is it . Most big corporate institutions have now been infected with woke ideology. Infected with woke ideology. Maybe its the scam. Theyre basically getting rewarded for playing politics with people and their businesses , and theyre no longer in business in to order make money or to produce good products. They are competing to get this virtue and these donations from these larger organisations to follow political narratives. And thatis follow political narratives. And that is not a great way to run civilisation. I mean, how long is it going to be before we lose cash and then our ability to buy goods and services is going to depend on whether or not those services are deemed to be good, odd or virtuous. I mean, if you buy a steak, youre probably going to get de banking in the next five years. They next five years. Well they wont let steak, they . Let you have steak, will they . Going to eventually, its going to be a but listen, a plant burger. But listen, alexander, i wish had longer. Alexander, i wish we had longer. Last you tell last but not least, can you tell me how the attack by hamas on israel last weekend is going down in australia . Down in australia . I think its exposed an awful lot of naivety , not just from lot of naivety, not just from the left who we always knew were always championing causes that go toward the destruction of our civilisation. But there are also civilisation. But there are also people on the right who seem to think if they just hug it out enough that islamic terror will let live. But every single let them live. But every Single Person has been defending person who has been defending hamas in the last 48 hours would have been killed. That festival because hamas terror like hezbollah , like isis, have all hezbollah, like isis, have all teamed up together to attack israel. Theyre not just interested in attacking israel. Islamic terror has been spreading terror and murder by the sword for a thousand years. And i think western countries need to look what happened at need to look at what happened at sydney house, where sydney opera house, where a thousand people were shouting, gasp, and our police gasp, the jews and our Police Commissioners didnt stop it. Instead, they arrested a man holding an israeli flag and charged or they warned him about breaching the peace. This is a disgrace and i was so embarrassed about what we saw in australia and how weak our police are considering. You all saw how much strength they had dunng saw how much strength they had during covid, where they were throwing little old ladies to the ground and arresting pregnant women. But when it came to islamic our police to islamic terror, our police ran politicians ran scared and our politicians ran scared and our politicians ran scared. And i think the west, including australia, needs to get more serious about this threat, which will come after every peaceful citizen. Well, indeed, australia and the west have seen their own citizens out on the streets , citizens out on the streets, like those scenes youve just seen there. That footage celebrating what hamas have done, this awful Terror Organisation , can the genie go organisation, can the genie go back in the bottle, do you think . No, i think what this has become is a watershed moment for mass migration. Weve seen that weve imported third world violent terror onto the streets of the west. Its not just australia. They have been protests in European Countries , protests in European Countries, including the United Kingdom and people are shocked to see the hatred and lack of care for the civilisation that weve invited people in to the west and said, you know, you can come and live in this, you know, peaceful, free country and yet what were seeing is a rebellion against every principle that every value and principle that we have fought for and that our great grandparents have fought for. Ashamed if for. They would be ashamed if they scenes coming out they saw those scenes coming out like in the opera house. Like we saw in the opera house. What spend last world what did we spend the last world war for if not make war fighting for if not to make sure never happens again . I sure this never happens again . I think it was oneill who think it was Brendan Oneill who wrote last week wrote in the spectator last week what happened never again . What happened to never again . Well i can you what. And well i can tell you what. And you anti fascists you know, the anti fascists where havent seen where is antifa . I havent seen antifa on the streets complaining about genuine fascism and genuine style ideology in this islamic terror.

Gaza trapped in a hellhole. Gaza hangsin trapped in a hellhole. Gaza hangs in the balance as israel prepares to invade and exact its revenge on Hamas Terrorists for their atrocities as it launched their atrocities as it launched the first Ground Missions to rescue hostages. After warning rescue hostages. After warning ordinary palestinians to evacuate. The archbishop of canterbury tonight pleaded that the sins of hamas are not borne by the citizens of gaza. That sounds like the archbishop asking israel not to retaliate. Asking israel not to retaliate. The guardian. Thousands flee ahead of expected invasion of gaza. Ahead of expected invasion of gaza. Iweekend no escape. Gazans gaza. Iweekend no escape. Gazans try to flee but face israels revenge. Ft weekend residents revenge.

A freaky clown scaring the bejesus out of people in a sleepy village has taunted cops by telling them. Catch me if you can. Well i happen to think Boris Johnson is courageous , and this is really courageous, and this is really not light relief. Not light relief. I mean, this is terrifying. A clown like that on the loose. Yeah ive ever known a clown. Ive ever known a clown. Thats. Thats. Thats. Thats a horror film. I know. Thats a horror film. I know. Thats a horror film. I know. Its cool. Its cool. Ive never known. No, thats. Ive never known. No, thats. Ive never known. No, thats. Thats the clown. And thats from it. Theyre all sinister. Thats no better. Thats. Thats no better. Thats. Yeah, you dont find all yeah, yeah. You dont find all clowns sinister . Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And also, if ever found and also, if you ever found a clown. Funny. No, no, after the clown. No, no, no. After the clown. No, no, no. After the clown. There you go. Terrifying there you go. Terrifying there you go. Terrifying ive been in that position myself from time to time. Listen, weve got all the papers. Theres only one story. Thats right. Whats happening right. And its whats happening in israels tanks strike in israel. Israels tanks strike into gaza. However, laura, a into gaza. However, laura, a message from the archbishop of canterbury. Give innocent people the chance of life. He pleaded the chance of life. He pleaded that the sins of hamas are not borne by the citizens of gaza. Borne by the citizens of gaza. Now, that sounds to me like code to israel that they should not retaliate. Retaliate. I dont think that they are trying to retaliate on the citizens. I mean, look at the measures theyve put place. Measures theyve put in place. Theyve done their leaflet drop. Theyve done their leaflet drop. Theyve civilians to move theyve warned civilians to move out the way. Of course, out of the way. But of course, they and root out they have to try and root out hamas else they do . Hamas. What else would they do . Hamas. What else would they do . Hamas wants to wipe out the state of israel and has said before it wants them all dead. What what are they supposed to do . Doesnt he . Im not saying do . Doesnt he . Im not saying he doesnt make a point, but i dont think the intention of israel is to visit this on on to the civilians. Im afraid that the civilians. Im afraid that gaza theyre doing their best, clearly theyve only clearly is because theyve only given civilians. 24 hours given these civilians. 24 hours to clear their lives. A Million People. Where are they going to . Theyve already dropped bombs in gaza this week. So babies have also died. Also i think vehicles have been running out of fuel to get away like human basics are. Water and electricity. Theyve stopped electricity. Theyve stopped that. They havent stopped that for the terrorists. Theyve stopped that for human beings who in who are not who live in gaza, who are not involved the terrorism. Involved with the terrorism. Mean , is there indeed. But i mean, is there a risk of demonising israel, jerry, with some of these headlines, gazans try to escape but face israel is revenge. That sounds like very partisan language. Not really. Language. Not really. Israel is entitled to revenge and israel is entitled to revenge on its enemies who want to destroy it, not just the state of israel , but every state of israel, but every single jew. Thats the awful single jew. Thats the awful thing. You see these preachers, thing. You see these preachers, they say every single jew man, woman and child must be destroyed. And that is destroyed. And that is a wickedness beyond our belief. Wickedness beyond our belief. Well, not beyond our belief, because we saw it in the last war before. Now, you had a slight disagreement with stephanie earlier because we were talking about whether the fa should be shining the colours of israeli on the of the israeli flag on the wembley. Wembley arch. Stephanie its quite and stephanie said its quite a complicated situation when its layered. And you said it isnt complicated at all. What do you mean . I think its all that i dont think its all that complicated. And in fact, in many stephanie, think many ways, stephanie, i think agree do not equate agree and that is do not equate every jew of whats happening in israel and the Israeli Government has not been a perfect government. We accept perfect government. We accept that. Do not equate every palestinian with hamas that that is the reality. But on the other hand, youve had rockets year after year, after year being thrown into israel, destroying life. There was a real life. There was a real opportunity this is the saudi thing. This is what its all about. Its iran and saudis. Its a real opportunity for peace, a real opportunity to improve the lives of palestinians. And theres no way the iranians wanted that to happen. The iranians wanted that to happen. The iranians are the happen. The iranians are the real enemy, and the west is going to have to decide what to do about it. Indeed. And what about joe biden, who has been sending billions to iran in recent years since he got into the white house . Well, therefore, feeding the monster very naive. The monster very naive. Well, there was one thing that trump got that President Trump got absolutely right. And its amazing. Saying this, but amazing. Im saying this, but actually the nuclear deal, actually was the nuclear deal, which was obamas deal, which was a complete and utter disaster. You cant trust the disaster. You cant trust the iranians. Disaster. You cant trust the iranians. They are disaster. You cant trust the iranians. They are terrorism, iranians. They are terrorism, terrorist s and their tentacles , terrorist s and their tentacles, you know, they go through all the middle east. Its theyre bad people. And were going to bad people. And were going to have to sort out what were going to do with them. United nafions going to do with them. United nations wont United Nations havent actually condemned hamas. Thats scary. The hamas. And thats scary. The United Nations is. Yeah, that is thats right. We still we still awaits guidance on that one. But as you said , there has not been an said, there has not been an overt condemnation. No. And overt condemnation. No. And thats an issue weve had in the last couple of days, is as noticeable silence from so many figures in regards to what has been the worst attack on jewish people since the second world war. And yet silence from so many laura, i think worse than silence as as i said at the at the top of the show, something i found shocking is that people were expressing solidarity with gaza. Gaza before israel had even started retaliating , even while started retaliating, even while they were still counting the dead. They were still counting the dead. And in israel, theres no dead. And in israel, theres no equivalent to how people treat this. There were a number of professors who were pretty much gloating about what decolonisation looks looks like, you know, from the safety of their armchair in secure countries like the uk and the us students, politician , us students, politician, us journalists. I think theres been a real a real bias. But this is the station of free speech. Theyre entitled to say it. We may free speech. Theyre entitled to say it. We may profoundly disagree with them, but theyre entitled to say it. Indeed so. And heres the other question is there enough scrutiny , jerry, of the scrutiny, jerry, of the behaviour of israel towards palestine over the last few decades . I think there always has been, but in many ways its been a little bit biased. I mean, i remember this is a slightly light story, but its true. I met, what was it, shimon peres . He was the president of israel in the 1980s when he was leader of the opposition. And he leader of the opposition. And he says, mr hayes , in israel, we says, mr hayes, in israel, we have more firepower from the arabs and the whole of nato put together. We have an incompetent together. We have an incompetent government that is not as serious as europol attacks, right . Yeah there you go. That puts it all in perspective, doesnt it . Perspective. This is a development there from regarding saudi arabia. Its putting us backed plans to normalise ties with israel on ice. Two sources familiar with riyadhs thinking have said, signalling a rapid rethink wing of its Foreign Policy priorities as war escalates between israel and Palestinian Group hamas. And this is a reminder, isnt it, that the implications do not just exist between israel and hamas and gaza, but actually the whole wider region . Yeah, yeah, absolutely. So what is going to happen to the saudi arabia deal . None of us know because what mbs know , he know because what mbs know, he runs effectively runs saudi arabia wants to do. He wants to transform form this particular part of the world into a non oil economy. And hes building massive , great things and he massive, great things and he wants free trade with israel. Now, whats going to happen there . Because the house of there . Because the house of saud, you know, is in a delicate state. You have to keep the mad extremists on side as well. Whats he going to do . Thats whats he going to do . Thats what the world should be watching at the moment. What is saudi going to do . And it does stephanie , and it does look, stephanie, like this is going to go for on years and that peace is gone years now and that peace is gone for. For a generation. It has. And i think its been so sad how quickly this story has developed and the atrocities that weve all witnessed just this week. And as i said earlier on, it feels like ignorance has been bliss towards what israel has had been doing to gaza over the past 75 years. The open air pnson the past 75 years. The open air prison that theyve had, the civilians in. But then also now its brought into the limelight. What hamas is capable of. And the revenge that they want to seek on israel as well. And what is going to happen to the 1. 1 Million People that is the big who lived in gaza . Are they going to be well, welcomed egypt . Because welcomed in egypt . Because thats only corridor. Are thats the only corridor. Are they be welcomed in they going to be welcomed in jordan . Are going be jordan . Are they going to be welcomed elsewhere . Because dont forget , you know, youve dont forget, you know, youve got a problem with syrian refugees. Youve got a problem with coming into turkey. With people coming into turkey. You know , about 2 Million People you know, about 2 Million People are going to be displaced. What are going to be displaced. What is israel going to actually do with gaza . Is it going to raze it to the ground . Is it going to retake it as part of jewish territory . I mean, there are territory . I mean, there are questions here which , wow, were questions here which, wow, were going to have to iran have Nuclear Weapons and then are backed by russia. So its a complex nexus and axis of evil is how it was described by president reagan, reagan and then bush, of course, latterly can israel wipe out hamas . Hamas . No, i dont think they can, because hamas is an individual. Because hamas is an individual. People. Yeah, you cut off one head of the snake. Another one will appear. Youve the thing is, what is going to happen . Is, what is going to happen . What are they going to do to iran . Is there going to be iran . Is there going to be a strike on iran because there providing the money thats how you wipe them out. Now, is the west going to allow this to happen . Is west going to allow this to happen . Is mossad going to do this . Israeli Defence Forces this . Is israeli Defence Forces is United States going to. Wow. Are we going to support that . Are we going to support that . This is these are big, big, Big Decisions that have to be made. I just dont think anyone ever wins when it comes to the war on terrorism. If we look at 911, come on, 20 years later, were still chasing our tail, trying to fight terrorism and its still popping up in Different Countries around the world. Israel is surrounded by hostile countries that contain hamas and other terrorists who want to wipe out every jew and destroy the state of israel. So what israel to do . What is israel supposed to do . Well, yes. How much of a fight a for fight for israel is a fight for the and for a fight for the west and for a fight for freedom . Thats the only democracy in the region. Laura i think, know, the way were think, you know, the way were talking about this is nothing like way people about like the way people talked about russia they russia and ukraine, where they wanted denounce wanted russians to denounce putin, where everyone saw ukraines fight as a fight for western democracy. And were not applying the same equivalence. And i think we should be. It reminds me of the Martin Niemoller poem. First they came for the socially. Its and i think we should be giving every support to israel. Every support to israel. Yeah of course. But how . Thats the problem. Thats the Million Dollar question. Well, weve got more well, look, weve got more papers coming up, of course, more whats happening in more from whats happening in israel got more israel and gaza. Weve got more live pictures to come from gaza city at the moment. A dark night sky, but that will likely change in the hours ahead. But the sun and the mirror waiting in the wings. Plus, my pundits will be nominating their headline heroes and back page zeroes. And what will no doubt be a tonal gear shift. Laura dodsworth, my excellent pundit, wants to talk about viagra. Find out why n ext next okay, more papers are in courtesy of lottie. Thanks to courtesy of lottie. Thanks to her for bringing them in. And weve got the sun and the mirror. Where should we start .

Maranhao middle east tensions rise cops on high terror alert uk attack fears as protests planned against gaza siege. A million told to flee as siege. A million told to flee as israeli troops move in. Stephanie a quick word on andrew. Freddie flintoff ive worked with him. Hes a real gentleman. He had the most gentleman. He had the most horrific car crash whilst filming top gear. He wasnt actually driving that quickly. I think it was an open top. Morgan car, but it it flipped and he wasnt wearing a helmet. The impact of it. And he only just came out recently marked, has said that been through just came out recently marked, has said � traumaticyeen through just came out recently marked, has said traumatic and through just came out recently marked, has said traumatic and hardest the most traumatic and hardest year of his life, which is totally understandable. You totally understandable. You know, when you do a show like top gear, you do it for the love of speed and the love of those kind dangerous stunts. Kind of dangerous stunts. But this stunt which went badly this is a stunt which went badly and potentially could be calling the end of top gear as a show and as a brand. Indeed. So. And is there a way back for freddie . I guess it depends his health. Depends on his health. I think hes worked now is going change now. Going to have to change now. I cant doing presenting cant see him doing presenting high dangerous shows such as top geanl high dangerous shows such as top gear. I think hes going to have to psychologically get through this. And hopefully there is a room for him to do more presenting, butjust room for him to do more presenting, but just not in this line work, duty care. Line of work, duty of care. No ones mentioned duty of care. You remember richard care. Do you remember Richard Hammond . Yeah, he nearly died. Yes in a rocket in a rocket yes in a rocket car in a rocket car . Yeah well, thats why theyre calling to cancel top gear. Because you cant bring back the show and make it lightweight show and make it a lightweight version of what it was they should have a duty of care. Why . People watch it is because they love these stunts. Yeah. Yeah, they do indeed. Well, yeah, they do indeed. Well, we wish freddie a speedy recovery. He really a lovely recovery. He really is a lovely guy and a devastating guy. And it was a devastating accident. Think well all accident. And i think well all miss which was miss top gear, which was a classic bit of tv from the beeb. Listen, lets lets get on to a rather more adult subject, because writing in the telegraph newspaper journalist petronelle wyatt reveals that last year the over 70 received a record 282,000 prescriptions for viagra , a small blue pill which helps men perform in the bedroom. I men perform in the bedroom. I think jerrys just popped a couple. Well, no, i havent. I didnt realise. I didnt realise you had to take them orally. Whats. Whats. Whats. Thats another story. 7000 of these blue pills went to men over 90. The oldest patient being 99. But Petronella Wyatt suggests its a disaster for society and is turning britain into a nation of dirty old men. She calls for viagra to be banned. Is she right or just an ageist spoilsport . Ageist spoilsport . Laura . Laura . I think shes an ageist, spoilsport. Look its youve got to remember, viagra isnt actually really just for men in their 70s, 80s and 90s, the average age is 5053. I think im not so worried about the ones that are given on prescription. You have to remember that older men a bit of trouble in men have a bit of trouble in that department if they can, that department and if they can, if they can keep it going, it helps them have loving enjoyable sexual relationships. And say sexual relationships. And i say good on them. Yes. I mean, petronella says in article, petronella says in that article, old are ugly to have sex. Oh, think she does. Oh, think she does. Oh, think she does. She knows. She knows. Oh , and i think thats mean. Oh, and i think thats mean. You know, i think that when youre in when youre love, youre in when youre in love, its not what you look like. Youre in when youre in love, its whathat you look like. Youre in when youre in love, its whathat � feel. Ook like. Youre in when youre in love, its whathat � feel like. Ike. Youre in when youre in love, its whathat � feel like. And if its what you feel like. And if people still having when people are still having sex when theyre thats great. I tell you what worry me what would really worry me about viagra is much more viagra and what is a much more serious old men serious problem than old men taking young men. Taking it. And its young men. So before my estate fair days, i produce three photography books about the body and the middle one was called manhood. I photograph it and interviewed 100 manhood and 100 men about their manhood and their manhood. And were their manhood. And there were quite viagra quite a lot of viagra discussions and a trend thats actually started with viagra is that young are taking it that young men are taking it like a lifestyle the like a lifestyle drug. So the problem that rather than it problem is that rather than it being physiological reason, being a physiological reason, its psychological. So if its psychological. So if theyve got an issue about performance use in the bedroom, theyre having it as a prophylactic. Other way prophylactic. But the other way round, in order to feel confident that theyre going to be able to business. But be able to do the business. But also there are a lot of young men whove become to men whove become addicted to and erectile and they get erectile dysfunction and so they dysfunction issues and so they need viagra just have need viagra just to have a normal relationship. And normal sexual relationship. And so its not the prescriptions to older men we should be worried about. I say good on them, especially whove had especially the men whove had prostate who have prostate cancer, who have got low , and its given low testosterone, and its given them of life. Its the them a lease of life. Its the young men , the young men who young men, the young men who shouldnt using it as shouldnt be using it as a recreational drug or a crutch. Yeah, i basically i saw it. I saw a great sign in a in a cafe the other day. And it says viagra doesnt make you james bond, but it makes you roger moore. Oh, i know. Its quite you can find an outstanding tonight. Oh, yes. Weve only got a few seconds. Oh, back to jerry. Can we just power through your headune we just power through your headline heroes and back page zero. So, stephanie, briefly, if you can, a few seconds for your headune you can, a few seconds for your headline heroes, clean. Headline heroes, clean. Really . Because cant wait really .
