We should do a taster. We should do a taster. Lovely. Paul. Well see you later on. Thank you, shall we go to scotland now . Where tensions are simmering after the greens revealed they plan to vote against the first minister, humza yousaf, in a vote of no confidence. Yes. The decision follows the collapse of the snps power sharing deals with the greens yesterday, leaving mr yousaf in charge of a minority government. Well, the no confidence motion proposed by scottish conservative leader douglas ross, who branded the snp leader weak and a failed first minister. Well, joining us now is gb news Political Correspondent. Olivia utley. Good to see you this morning, olivia. And will humza yousaf survive this . Do you think . You think . Well he is just clinging on by the tips of his fingers and incredibly vie the decision. The kingmaker in all of this is a woman called ash regan. Now ash regan, for those of you who dont know, was an snp mp. She went up against humza yousaf in the leadership election. They the leadership election. They had a big, big falling out over trans rights. Ash regan is of the jk rowling mindset and was worried about the erosion of womens rights in the end, she defected from the snp and joined alba , which is Alex Salmonds alba, which is Alex Salmonds nationalist breakaway party. When she went, humza yousaf said that she was at no great loss to the snp, but she now has a very, very important position and i expect hes wishing he didnt say that. She is the only alba mp. Shes the only other nationalist msp in holyrood and because the snp is one seat short of a majority in holyrood, weve got to assume that the whole of the snp will vote for confidence in humza yousaf. Everything now rests on what ash regan decides to do if she votes to keep humza yousaf in, then he can cling on to his job. But if she decides to vote, no confidence in him , then his confidence in him, then his position becomes completely untenable and he has to go. There are those who are saying that even if he manages to win this vote of no confidence, his position is still untenable. Position is still untenable. Next time there is a vote in holyrood, which will presumably be quite soon, the conservatives, labour and now the greens , the snps former the greens, the snps former coalition partners, will all vote against the snp. The snp will lose vote after vote and it will lose vote after vote and it will become impossible for humza yousaf to keep his job. So either way, it seems as though he made a pretty major miscarriage. Elation in ending that coalition relationship with the greens. I dont think he quite understood the strength of feeling from the greens, but for now, his future rests in the hands of a woman who he said it was no loss losing her from the snp. Lets see how that plays out. Out. Did he have much of a choice though . I mean, the greens were talking about leaving anyway, werent they . Didnt he just beat them to it . Beat them to it . I mean he did. It was it was a sort of a bit of a question of the tail was wagging the dog in this snp green coalition, the snp obviously had far, far more seats in holyrood than the green party did. And actually, as i say, the snp was only one seat short of a majority. And yet somehow the green party seemed to be sort of setting the agenda for the snp. And again and again tensions were coming out. There tensions were coming out. There were all sorts of bills, for example, humza yousaf dropping that net zero commitment, obviously really , really angered obviously really, really angered the greens. And so it was a marriage made in hell really, between the two parties and humza yousaf , you could argue, humza yousaf, you could argue, had no choice. The greens may have jumped anyway , but the way have jumped anyway, but the way he handled the situation seems to have informed claimed things perhaps more than was necessary. Perhaps more than was necessary. And there are lots and lots of people in scotland at the moment saying that humza yousaf just hasnt really been a very good politician, that said, he has been dealt a very, very poor hand. He came in to be the Nicola Sturgeon continuity candidate and obviously, as weve seen in the last six months or so, being the Nicola Sturgeon continuity candidate might not be the best position in the world right now. Now her in the world right now. Now her husband has been a rearrested. Husband has been a rearrested. She very much is under a cloud of suspicion now. So humza yousaf was dealt a bad hand but he seems to have played it quite badly. Badly. Okay, olivia, whilst weve got you wanted to ask you about the new gb news poll, which suggests that labour are i suggests that labour are 11 points ahead of the conservatives when it comes to gb news viewers voting intentions. Yeah, and i mean, obviously that thats pretty worrying for the Prime Minister. We have seen worse polls often. The labour is more like 20 points ahead in the polls. But the fact that audiences like ours, who sometimes tend to be a bit more sympathetic to the sort of conservative cause, are now much keener on on the idea of a labour government. The same is true , by the way, of telegraph true, by the way, of telegraph readers. Daily telegraph readers would now like to see a labour government, perhaps will show the Prime Minister that, you know, things are things are really coming to an end unless he can do something pretty drastic pretty soon. Of course, what he is hoping is that he can pull a rabbit out of the hat with some deportations to rwanda. That bill has now received royal assent. The flight should be taking off soon and rishi sunak is hoping that that will give him the boost that will give him the boost that he really, really needs before those local elections next week. If the local elections go a bit better than expected, then he has a bit more breathing room and perhaps he can hope to see a bit of an upfickin can hope to see a bit of an uptick in the polls. At the same time, rishi sunak will be hoping inflation will continue to go down. Interest rates will hopefully go down, peoples mortgages will start to look a bit more rosy and maybe, just maybe in six months time, hell be in a better position than he is now. That seems to be what hes banking on when he decides to go for an election in the second half of this year, rather than a summer election. Than a summer election. This is great news for keir starmer, though, because when you look at some of the questions here, i mean, it almost seems Like Labour Party policy, 72 of gb news viewers think the government isnt tough enough on crime, 66 of gb news viewers think the government should spend more on the nhs, and three quarters think immigration is too high, but 49 think the uk should stay in the echr yeah, its a fascinating mix of questions there and as weve seen time and time again, what seems to be happening is labour is stealing the tories clothes on issues like immigration, on issues like crime, on issues like defence. These are things which the conservatives naturally are stronger on. Normally we see labour kind of winning on issues about health care. Labour is often , thought care. Labour is often, thought to be more trusted with the nhs, but on issues like defence, immigration, crime, those should be the, those should be real tory winners. But at the moment they are not. And keir starmer is very deliberately trying to , is very deliberately trying to, trying to take that Centre Ground in the last 3 or 4 years since he first became labour leader , that his shadow cabinet leader, that his shadow cabinet has become pretty much unrecognisable when he started, it was the sort of left wingers in the model of jeremy corbyn. Now he has a shadow cabinet full of blairites and that is because he wants to get that Centre Ground. He wants to steal the tories clothes on these issues like crime, like immigration, like crime, like immigration, like defence. Will it work out well , i think like defence. Will it work out well, i think it probably will. But rishi sunak is just hoping for that little bit of breathing space over the next six months after the local elections. Okay. Olivia utley, good to okay. Olivia utley, good to see you this morning. Thank you very much indeed, im just thinking i was going to say lets have a poll on twitter, but actually, we dont need to do that now. No we dont, do we . No we dont, do we . No. With gb news. Com name. Your. Say, what if youre on there . Get on there. Log in. On there . Get on there. Log in. Im doing it right now. Im doing it right now. All you have to do is just send a message saying, sunak or starmer, one of the one of the two. So who youd like to be Prime Minister after the next. Youre full of creative ideas. I am, i am, yes. So there you go. Sunak i am, i am, yes. So there you go. Sunak or starmer . Just put one word in and just give us an idea of. And then this is completely unfiltered, well kirsty cat says guessing reformer. No good. Im voting them screw the big two. Yeah, but im just thinking in terms of who would be Prime Minister, because its not likely that richard tice will become Prime Minister or nigel farage if he were to stand, either theyre not going to win, theyre going to have an impact, but not enough to become Prime Minister. So im just thinking of those two who are one of one of those two who are one of one of them is going to be Prime Minister which one do you want to see . Yeah. Keep them coming in and well keep a keep a close eye on that wont we . Throughout the programme. Yeah. Now in a Landmark Legal ruling, disgraced hollywood Film Producer Harvey Weinstein has had his 2020 new york rape conviction overturned due to a crucial mistake made by the trial judge. Yeah the court found he didnt get a fair trial after the judge called witnesses whose accusations were not part of the case against him. Mr weinstein found guilty of raping and sexually assaulting two women, but is now entitled to a retrial. To a retrial. Well, weinstein will remain in prison, though, after being convicted of a separate rape in los angeles. But the expected retrial of his new york case could mean victims are reliving the saga all over again. Lets talk to Showbiz Reporter stephanie takyi. Yeah, i mean, its this is frankly extraordinary. It is. And its very much a big blow to victims of Sexual Assault and also the victims who bravely stood and took part in the court cases. You know, for many of these women coming forward and telling their stories of, you know, allegedly being assaulted by Harvey Weinstein was not an easy task for them. So even women, including ashley judge, judge and actress, shes come out now and actress, shes come out now and she said this is an act of Institutional Betrayal because what it was when Harvey Weinstein was sentenced in 2020, many people saw that as actually a victory for the Metoo Movement. You know, finally , movement. You know, finally, hes been locked away. Hes not going to be a free man. So hes still already in prison, serving another sentence for 16 years. But the fact that now this has been overturned , actually, its been overturned, actually, its said to a lot of women, actually, your stories dont matter even if youre going to court to talk about it. With court to talk about it. With Harvey Weinstein and his defence, his team are quite happy with this verdict because it means actually he can actually now go on trial and have his say, because during the trial, he didnt really get a chance to say his side of the story. So now if there is going to be a retrial, he will get to say how what happened in these kind of situations that hes been accused of. I mean, but for a retrial, if we see one in new york. Yeah. For the victims , thats going to for the victims, thats going to be very difficult, isnt it . Having to rehash everything that they say theyve been through. It is and i think a lot of them have lost faith in the system because, you know, youve convicted this for man 23 years. Many people were celebrating because they thought this is the situation over. Hes been locked away, but now youve got the highest court in new york coming out saying, actually, weve made an error in such a very delicate case like that. I think a lot of victims have now lost support and hope in the system. But, you know, from whats come out, the statements that have come out from the courts, they say, do you still want to honour victims . But the law is the law. Even someone like Harvey Weinstein, the public, already have made their opinion about him, but he is entitled to a fair trial. But this is the problem. If you said this isnt a fair trial and as you say, the public have got their view on it all, how does he then get its going to be its going to be a retrial. How is that going to be fair . Well, this is why theyve kind of kind of shot themselves in the foot here because it was very a tight verdict. It was 4 to 3. In order to have this court ruling to be brought back to trial. But the problem is now people know Harvey Weinsteins story. And i think a lot of juries, even if you got them from all over the world, theyve already made up their mind. So for someone like Harvey Weinstein, its going to be very hard to give him a fair trial. The only victory, i think, for Harvey Weinstein here is that hes going to manage to say his side of the story, but it means as well, less victims. If there is a retrial, there will be less victims who will be able to come forward because none of their stories have been stood up in a court of evidence, in evidence. So its going to be quite hard , so its going to be quite hard, that it is. Stephanie takyi. Good. Thank you so much. Thank you very much indeed. Right. Its 6 16. Lets have a look at some of the other stories coming into the newsroom this morning. And the worlds first personalised mrna jab for melanoma is being trialled with british patients , where its british patients, where its hoped the jab will stop lung, bladder and kidney cancer.

But, you know, from whats come out, the statements that have come out from the courts, they say, do you still want to honour victims . But the law is the law. Even someone like Harvey Weinstein<\/a>, the public, already have made their opinion about him, but he is entitled to a fair trial. But this is the problem. If you said this isnt a fair trial and as you say, the public have got their view on it all, how does he then get its going to be its going to be a retrial. How is that going to be fair . Well, this is why theyve kind of kind of shot themselves in the foot here because it was very a tight verdict. It was 4 to 3. In order to have this court ruling to be brought back to trial. But the problem is now people know Harvey Weinstein<\/a>s story. And i think a lot of juries, even if you got them from all over the world, theyve already made up their mind. So for someone like Harvey Weinstein<\/a>, its going to be very hard to give him a fair trial. The only victory, i think, for Harvey Weinstein<\/a> here is that hes going to manage to say his side of the story, but it means as well, less victims. If there is a retrial, there will be less victims who will be able to come forward because none of their stories have been stood up in a court of evidence, in evidence. So its going to be quite hard , so its going to be quite hard, that it is. Stephanie takyi. Good. Thank you so much. Thank you very much indeed. Right. Its 6 16. Lets have a look at some of the other stories coming into the newsroom this morning. And the worlds first personalised mrna jab for melanoma is being trialled with british patients , where its british patients, where its hoped the jab will stop lung, bladder and kidney cancer. The cancer jab has been described as cancerjab has been described as a game changer and is custom built for each person. In just a few weeks. Few weeks. I had any fear because, i just by doing the trial, i feel like im actively doing something to give it a kicking. Basically a 13 Year Old Girl<\/a> has been charged with three counts of attempted murder after two teachers and a pupil were stabbed at Amman Valley School<\/a> in wales on wednesday. The teachers and pupil have been released from hospital after being treated for stab wounds. Wounds. Vice chancellors from 24 leading universities have been warned by m15 that foreign states are targeting british institutions to undermine National Security<\/a>. The government and Security Services<\/a> are worried that Cutting Edge Research<\/a> could be targeted by foreign states to boost their own militaries and economies, and in the United States<\/a>, the Supreme Court<\/a> has been hearing arguments on whether former president s are immune from criminal trial. Federal trial. It follows Donald Trumps<\/a> dozens of charges across four cases, including the hush money trial. Thats underway now. Supreme Court Justices<\/a> set to hand down their judgements in several weeks, which, of course, will also set a precedent for future president s. President s. Now, mps have warned that any failure in the process of moving people to universal credit from older , so called Legacy Benefits<\/a> older, so called Legacy Benefits<\/a> could lead to real world misery for thousands. The department for work and pensions must ensure it helps claimants, some of whom are vulnerable, to switch and not lose their benefits as well. The dwp has insisted that benefits are only ever stopped as a last resort after multiple unsuccessful attempts to engage with someone. Lets talk to former adviser to the bank of england, doctor roger gewolb, whos here. Good to see you, roger. Good morning. How concerning is this, morning. How concerning is this, or is this just picking up on a potential sort of problem that hasnt really happened yet . I think its a real problem, it affects, fortunately, not a huge number of people. Theres huge number of people. Theres about 2. 2 Million People<\/a> on the six different Legacy Benefits<\/a>, and they want to move about, well, less than half , about well, less than half, about 900,000 of them to universal credit. And it really isnt credit. And it really isnt working. As i read the reports and the intel i kind of wonder if these are the folks whove designed the rwanda plan. I mean, its just a litany of unbelievable, government, mean, its just a litany of unbelievable, government , civil unbelievable, government, civil service, absolute mess up failures. So, for example, 21 failures. So, for example, 21 of people have not transferred from the Legacy Benefits<\/a> to the universal credit , and theyve universal credit, and theyve had their benefits stopped , so had their benefits stopped, so that 21 is just a tad higher than the 3 that the dwp estimated would be the case, secondly, they also dont fully understand they say, why the people are not claiming after receiving a notice to migrate. They say, quote, lack the data to ensure people are claiming the benefits theyre entitled to. I mean, its unbelievable. To. I mean, its unbelievable. My to. I mean, its unbelievable. My first question is why dont they just pay them . Why do they actually actually have to apply . A lot of these are elderly , a lot of these are elderly, Vulnerable People<\/a> down on their luck, you know . I mean, why make them suffer through that . And they are cutting people off who havent applied. Thirdly, it will cost surprise and surprise \u00a3900 million more and take 606 years longer than they estimated to do this. Why . Back in, largely due to the governments decision, quote, to delay moving income related employment and support allowance claimants to universal credit. Why they delayed it i dont know. I cant answer that. Ive read several different reasons, but none of them really make sense, the dwps evidence on the long term impact is limited as its evaluation is have only considered the short term effects. I mean, roger, youre listing all of that out there. It makes you question, is this a system thats even fit for purpose . I thats even fit for purpose . I mean, surely claimants shouldnt be facing real world misery over universal credit claimants. I mean, even if it was only 3 of 900,000 people, thats a lot of tens of thousands of families suffering. And if its 21, its frightening. And no, its obviously not fit for purpose. They dont have the data. They cant explain why its not working, why it costs more, why it takes longer to, and as i say, id like an answer to the question , why . Why cant to the question, why . Why cant you . You know, we all during the pandemic, we all receive card checks and things. We got we got our fuel \u00a367 payments. Why do they make people apply . And if they make people apply . And if they dont apply, cut them off. Theres just something thats very wrong here. It seems like its as much as anything else, a data issue, which is what we have with, with, migration and illegal legal and illegal migration. Excuse me. So many other things. Yeah. So. So what is wrong with the systems in government that they, you know, they cannot provide the data in 2024 . You think it would all be on some server somewhere, i interviewed nigel farage a long time ago. Well, eight months ago, about why we have such poor leadership. And he. If you if you google my surname and farage, you can see the video andifs farage, you can see the video and its quite interesting his answers. But there is a new a Artificial Intelligence<\/a> app called perplexity, which has just become very popular and which was recommended by arianna huffington, the founder of the huffpost and its really quite good. And i asked it yesterday , good. And i asked it yesterday, why are politicians so poor . Why why are politicians so poor . Why does all this happen . And it said basically in four different ways that they may be very intelligent and capable in their own right, but they have to dumb things down to get and stay elected because thats what the populace doesnt want. Nuanced explanation. I found that really explanation. I found that really quite interesting. Yeah yeah. Lumenick, roger. Good to see you this morning. Thank you very much indeed , loads of you much indeed, loads of you getting in touch on the, the question about who you would want to be Prime Minister<\/a>. Sashas already stevens asking the wrong question because the majority of conservative voters dont want sunak. The choice should have been broader. Its a reality choice. The choice. The reality choice. The choice. The reality is it is either going to be rishi sunak or keir starmer, who is Prime Minister<\/a> after the next election. There wont be next election. There wont be anybody else. You know, thats a thats a reality of the situation. So thanks to all of you who said farage or tom moore or whatever, but its not going to be most are saying sunak. Isnt that fair to say sunak, ive only seen one saying keir starmer. Yeah, ive seen that one. Yeah, ive seen that one. A lot of you saying, neither, just neither. Which obviously is not the reality, but it doesnt actually, bode well , does it, if actually, bode well, does it, if nobody wants either. But if youre if youre saying neither, does that mean you wont be going out to vote on election day . Because i think that could be the case for many people who just decide to stay at home, not vote for anybody. At home, not vote for anybody. Do let us know if thats going to be the case. I mean, karen says sunak is appalling, but starmer is worse. So shes voting reform. I mean, so shes voting reform. I mean, its not a happy, a happy state of affairs, is it . Its not. No, its not going to be 1997, in the sense that theres not the excitement, is there. No. That we saw for tony blair, let us know what you think. Keep those views coming in. Gbnews. Com yoursay.

Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day, and theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds are going to bubble up though, as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. Thoughi of showers starts to develop. Though i think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry. Now towards the south we start to see cloud thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight and temperatures will be well below average for the time of year, so another fairly cool day today. Cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening, so it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air, so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best of the sunshine is likely to be in the morning. I think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry across the midlands, though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed and in the south any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers.

The prince of wales. Shocked. 1200 pupils yesterday when he made a surprise visit to a high school in the West Midlands<\/a>. Yes. This was after 12 year old Freddie Hadley<\/a>, from sandwell , Freddie Hadley<\/a>, from sandwell, wrote a letter to Prince William<\/a> inviting him to see his Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. Our royal correspondent, Cameron Walker<\/a> was there. Walker was there. Its not every day youre pulled out of class to meet a prince, but for Saint Michaels<\/a> High School Students<\/a> yesterday, thats exactly what happened. Thats exactly what happened. When did you find out he was coming to your school . Like ten minutes ago. Yeah like ten minutes ago. Yeah bit of a shock. Bit of a shock. Yes. We just cant believe that someone so important has turned up to the West Midlands<\/a> to see, you know, 1200 children. They would never get this opportunity again. And were just a little bit shell shocked that somebody so famous has turned up today. Prince williams visits to the West Midlands<\/a> were sparked last october, when 12 year old freddie hadele invited him to come and learn about the Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. Freddies letter was posted on x and to his surprise, william personally tweeted back on world Mental Health<\/a> day. He apologised Mental Health<\/a> day. He apologised for not being able to visit, but asked pupils to keep up their important work. Fast forward to yesterday and freddie got his wish. Wish. Seen him walking down. I was like i can, i can not wrap my head around this. It was like a good thing i didnt get told because obviously it wouldnt be such as a big surprise. But when iseen such as a big surprise. But when i seen him, i was like, gosh, this is like, like once in a lifetime chance for sure. Two pairs of the pair sat down for the all male matrix project, which runs the am i manly enough campaign, tackling the stigma around male Mental Health<\/a>, williams said he realised his passions to solve homelessness and addiction were both connected to Mental Health<\/a> problems, which is why hes committed to solving that too. He said boys and men need to talk more about their feelings. The suicide rate in young men is just terrifying and i wanted to do something about it. The group broadcasts a local radio show with fun segments, which william was all too happy to take part in. Ive been asked to produce a dad joke. So im kind of trying to channel Jack Whitehall<\/a> because most of his jokes are pretty dad like knock knock , pretty dad like knock knock, sir. Interrupting cow. Moo 1 mean, i hear a lot of homophobic i ina in a bizarre turn of events, comedian Jack Whitehall<\/a> was happy with his royal badge of honour tweeting, rinsed by the future king, the prince of wales spent time shaking hands with as many pupils as possible. Before he left. He was impressed by Saint Michaels<\/a> whole School Approach<\/a> to Mental Health<\/a>. Its understood these pupils are more inclined to open up about their feelings successfully, breaking down stigmas and paving the way for happier and healthier futures. Cameron walker, gb news really nice that. Isnt that lovely . A fan of freddie . Freddies so cute , so cute. Freddies so cute, so cute. And i think i think Prince William<\/a> is so funny as well. Yeah, this is really nice. Yeah, this is really nice. Theyve got sense humour running through that family. King charles is the same. Yeah, and the queen apparently had a really good sense of humour. Queen elizabeth that is. Yeah. I like it. Tickles me. Yeah. I like it. Tickles me. There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go. Paul coyte. Sinner. Good morning. I stood opposite the queen once, and it was the most embarrassing moment of my entire life. Oh, no. Why . It was queen of the previous. Queen is the previous queen. Yeah. And it was. I was doing it. It was when . I mean, you worked in local radio as well, and you used to do road shows, do you remember . And it was the east of england show. And im standing on this stage and the queen came past on a standing on the top of a jeep, you know, doing the waving. And i realised that the height i was at was at the same height as her. So we were almost face to face, and i didnt really know whether to smile or to do it. And i went like this are a bit like freddie. And that was it. So that was it. And even now i think, oh my goodness, are you supposed to do that . I dont know, a distance salute. Were you starstruck . Were you starstruck . Oh, i was just like, yeah, i was completely yeah, i couldnt oh great story though. Yeah. I wanted to tell the kids. I wanted to tell the kids. Apparently she used to tell the same story in royal circles. She tell you what . She tell you what . Your roadshows were better than ours. We had. Well we had take that one year. Yeah. Yeah. We dont not take that. No, no. Well they were very good. Its when they were at the height of their fame that was probably the same time as we did. It was probably down the road. Yeah, yeah. So i take that, we had dale winton one year. Oh hello. Oh hello. And we had, peter andre. And we had, peter andre. Did you. Yeah. Did you. Yeah. Peter andre. Whatever happened to peter andre . I dont know, i dont know any idea . Oh. Hes great. Hes on paternity leave. Ive never heard of him. Studies. How many kids have you got now . Five. Well, five children. And he was a kid himself. In those days. He was . Yeah. He was . Yeah. Man city. Yes. You better add very good. Four nil beat brighton last night, so Manchester City<\/a> are doing what they do and thats towards the end of the season winning football matches. Simple as that. So so, they were very good. They were. They looked a little tired. I thought they little tired. I thought they looked a little leggy. In fact, at the weekend when they played, chelsea in the semi final, but they refreshed. They were composed. They were clinical. They scored four goals, and theyre now within one point of arsenal with a game in hand. So arsenal with a game in hand. So arsenal are still top with 77, Manchester City<\/a> played one game less with 76 points. And then weve got liverpool on 74 and then over the weekend. So tomorrow , west ham are playing tomorrow, west ham are playing liverpool and jurgen klopp always unhappy about the lunchtime kick off. You cant bnng lunchtime kick off. You cant bring up lunchtime kick offs or even make a joke about it because he will snap. Oh he gets so testy about the whole thing, for crying out loud. He misses lunch. He misses lunch. Well, i think it might be. And its like, oh, its not fair that we play early. And wayne rooney was on tv just the other day and he was talking about it and said, just get on with it. Thats the job, get on with it. And i thought, well done, wayne. So someday man city away at forest, arsenal, spurs sunday afternoon. Yes im looking forward to that. Feeling a little nervous. Feeling a little nervous. Weve heard from arnie slot. Weve heard from arnie slot. Oh, we have our friend on, i still dont have a ruling on iron arnie. Id say arnie. Id say arnie. Arnie. Slot. Theres arnie, arnie. Slot. Theres arnie, he is now, said because he is the final manager and liverpool seem to be interested in him. He has now said. And you dont get managers that say this when theyre another job, because usually they go, well, you know, im very happy where i am. But he said, it seems clear to me that what a strange thing to say. It seems clear to me that i would like to work there. Yeah, thats very odd, isnt it . It is odd. It is odd. Would you say that theres something more concrete in the mix . Here . Here . Is what . In the concrete mix . Is what . In the concrete mix . In the concrete. In the concrete. In the concrete. I think there is. I think there is. Could it be solidifying . Could it be solidifying . Well, all he says, all i can say is that the clubs are in negotiations and im in the waiting room in negotiations. So and so it looks like its going to happen, but theyre going to have to pay. Liverpool will have have to pay. Liverpool will have to play pay feyenoord some sort of compensation. But really managers are as important if not more important than some players. So maybe well get to the point where therell be transfer fees for managers. It makes sense. You never know. You never know. You never know. Something you never know. Something to think about in the future. Maybe, oh, i mean, honestly, what a time red bull is having at the minute. I know, i mean, they do it all right on the track, obviously, but yeah, but its just sort of in the head offices is more trouble. Its away from the track. Well, the Christian Horner<\/a> thing wont go away. That happened in february when he was accused of Sexual Harassment<\/a> and coercive behaviour. Now it seemed it was it all gone away. But within red bull it certainly hasnt. Now design chief, adrian newey, he is the genius that is probably behind that. Tim on the left there with Christian Horner<\/a> behind, i think its safe to say that success because hes the man that designs the cars and the cars are winning and beating everybody. So hes not happy and hes decided that he wants to step away. Hes been called the greatest designer in history when it comes to cars. So thats someone they dont want to lose. So again, it looks like its part of this power struggle. Youve got horner whos in dispute with helmut marko who was the motorsport advisor, got chalerm vedra who is runs the whole thing. He seems to be also at odds with horner. Whole thing. He seems to be also at odds with horner. But who is at odds with horner. But who is it . Thats. And horner seems to be staying there. But it seems other people who may be more important or are they are stepping away. So its a whole heap of trouble. And also if youre another if youre basically youre, youre another, team, youre going to be wanting to take him in because hes the best designer. And then youd think that maybe theres another big transfer fee. So hes going to be able to name his price. If anybody wants him. Yeah. Yeah. Youll just have to quickly tell us whats going on with wada, usada and shinada. Oh my goodness me. Oh my goodness me. How long. What are they . How long have i got about 20s . Im gonna have to do this really, really quickly. Yeah. Wada the world doping agency. This is to do with the chinese swimmers. Theres 23 of them. And they tested positive back in 2021 for trimetazidine varne, which turns out is heart medicine that was taken by valiyeva who was the ice skater. So anyway, theyve tested positive for that, wada said after they were tested by shinada, who were the Chinese Agency<\/a> against drugs, who then said, oh, you know, thats okay. It was it was in contaminated food. Wada said, thats okay. Usada who are the americans . Have said, well, that cant be on you cant you cant be continuing to swim when youve tested positive. So now youve got swimmers who want to sue. Wada and wada are in conflict with usada. How about that . Thats not a very good job. Thats not a very good job. Any sense whatsoever. Any sense whatsoever. So all the chinese contaminated food. Yeah. Have they all been eating strawberry cheesecake or whatever it is . Thats what happened with aliyeva. Oh, it was in the food. But how can you have this drug in, in a kitchen . It just happens to be there. So anyway, this theres, this is going to run and run because seven of the swimmers got olympic medals are. Swimmers got olympic medals are. And we dont like the smell of whats going on there, all right paul well see you later on. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Ill lay down now. Ill lay down now. Now, do you stay with us still to come . Were going to be going through all of the newspapers with nigel nelson and Claire Pearsall<\/a>. Thats next. 643. Lets have a look at some of the newspapers for you this morning. Yes, and the telegraph reports that the threat of rwanda deportations is causing an influx of migrants from the uk into the republic of ireland. Uk into the republic of ireland. The guardian leads on scotlands first minister facing a no confidence motion backed by the scottish greens. The scottish greens. The times leads with m15 vetting academics to kerb threats from China Express<\/a> reports a new cancer vaccine being tested on british patients, offering hope for a cure, and the daily mail says that thieves attack shops over a thousand times a day. All right, lets go through some of those stories then, with our senior political commentator, nigel nelson and former government adviser claire pierce. All good to see you both this morning. Good morning, right, lets kick off with the telegraph. Nigel, ive so many people say rwanda doesnt work as a deterrent. Its not started yet. And apparently everyones fleeing to ireland. Well, thats according to the deputy Prime Minister<\/a> over there. Michael martin. Question. Really is if hes trying to actually shift the blame somewhere else for the problems that his own country is facing, that his own country is facing, that ireland has got a Record Number<\/a> of migrants coming in 140,000. Thats a 16 year high, it just seems a bit weird that with rwanda not actually happening , we dont know if happening, we dont know if itll be a deterrent or not. And already boat crossing so far this year , a third more than this year, a third more than this year, a third more than this time last year , which would this time last year, which would suggest that the migrants who are who are crossing the channel havent yet been put off by rwanda. Maybe they will. They beat rwanda. They beat rwanda. Well, well, they cant beat rwanda because the moment they get here, they they disappear into the system. Well, you could but but there declared, although its not a legal to cross the channel theyre declared inadmissible when they get here. And theres this backlog at the moment, about 40,000 people who were caught by the illegal migration act, who cant leave the country and cant stay ehhen the country and cant stay either. So these people all would be eligible for rwanda if they turn up, as you say, they can always disappear into the black economy or Something Like<\/a> that, but much more difficult because the authorities actually have have got hold of them. But it is a kind of inevitability that this would happen given that if they cannot remain in the United Kingdom<\/a> , remain in the United Kingdom<\/a>, they are going to enter ireland and across a non existent border from north to south. I mean, it is that open border that the eu wanted, that the Windsor Framework<\/a> is set up to provide died. So there was a slight sense of inevitability that this was always going to happen. And i believe it was one of the things that that came up when illegal migration was spoken about. A few years ago, that you have the common travel area, you have the common travel area, you have this problem of no border between north and south, and what was going to happen about that. And nobody seems to have the answer. And i and i think this is one of those issues that we are going to have to face as a nation. And also as an international community, that there will always be these kind of routes that people will use to get around something. So the minute you change a Business Model<\/a> for the people smugglers by saying, no ones going to be admissible to the United Kingdom<\/a>, theyre going to go to rwanda, then theyre going to find other ways. So we need to actually come up with a much better way of looking at international migration, rather than just these stopgap things that may or may not work. And in the case of rwanda, there really isnt a deterrent factor at the moment because no flight currently is gone there. No. What do we know . Theyll only be a few hundred people. I hate to sound very well, incredibly selfish, but do we care if people are travelling , care if people are travelling, you know, leaving britain to go to ireland . To ireland . Well, i think if youre irish, you probably. Oh, yeah. Were not irish, are we . Thats the point. Thats the point. I think we, i think we all need to care because is where what happens when theres a problem . What happens if civil problem . What happens if civil unrest occurs . All of these knock on effects have a massive impact on the rest of us. And you dont know what the unintended consequences of a lot of people passing through and going into ireland. And you may say, fine, thats their problem, not ours. And a clamp down in ireland would mean that they might well come back here again. It might just be a sort of a circular route. So i think that weve got to actually co opt it with all other countries. I mean, france is having a huge problem. There are far more Illegal Migrants<\/a> than we do , italy is in the than we do, italy is in the front line of this would but maybe this would put pressure on ireland to put pressure on france to do more. Absolutely. It could work in our favour. We could get the Irish Government<\/a> to actually deal with the eu because they can, because they are part of it , might make macron actually step up and do something for the money that were giving him, because tensions are really high in ireland with this. I mean, theyve got a housing crisis. Crisis. Thats the other problem than ours. Ouis. Ours. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, thats made it more difficult because i mean, theyve had riots over this. Yeah, because their housing crisis is worse than than we have here. On the basis of that, people are saying, well, if all the migrants come in, theyre going to take the houses. And so it goes on, thats very difficult, claire, lets have a look at the guardian front page, shall we . And humza yousaf in peril. Peril. Yes. Yes. Now, this this has been very smile off your face. Im not smiling. Its very serious. But also really quite funny, cant blame the english for this one. This is entirely up to the scottish parliament. Humza yousaf, the first minister of scotland , has stopped his of scotland, has stopped his power sharing deal with the scottish greens. You seem very pleased about it. At the time when he did it, didnt he . He did he, he said they were very progressive and he was the continuity candidate after Nicola Sturgeon<\/a> stepped down and he wanted the greens to be on board. Now the greens naturally were not very happy with all of the Oil Exploration<\/a> in. They wanted to stop all those licences. Scottish people getting very fed up because a lot of the economy , based around lot of the economy, based around the oil industry in scotland. The oil industry in scotland. And theres also the slight problem there was the gender clinics decision, which the greens didnt like. So it now greens didnt like. So it now looks as if humza yousaf will face a vote of no confidence, which could happen tuesday or wednesday next week. And it all hangs on ash regan i yeah, and this is the sort of the ultimate irony. Ash regan , the ultimate irony. Ash regan, who used to be an snp member, did in fact run for the leadership and then went over to join Alex Salmonds<\/a> alba party to be their first msp and now could hold the final casting vote. As to whether humza yousaf remains as first minister. Now he waved her off with a its no loss to us. Yeah, goodbye. Loss to us. Yeah, goodbye. Youll regret that. Youll regret that. He will regret it. And she is sat there very nicely. Now if i was ash regan, i would also be putting together my list of demands. Well, she has done, but demands. Well, she has done, but i dont think it goes far enough. I think that she needs to sort of say humza yousaf needs to bring back take the high road. You could have some real fun with this chucking the serious issues, but just chuck in a couple of little things, you know . Statues for the stars of balamory , tunnocks cake for of balamory, tunnocks cake for every family, those kind of things. Because. She really now things. Because. She really now does hold the balance of power. And that patience and the sort of the way she presented herself is going to come out in her favour. Yeah, but what you really want is, is to get humza yousaf to actually relax the his gender recognition laws that hes been trying to bring in at the moment, that theyre stymied. But she objected to the idea that you could change gender without any medical diagnosis. All you had to do was swear an oath to live in your acquired genden oath to live in your acquired gender, she has a letter outstanding to him saying, what are you doing about this now . I think that probably he ought to reply before this vote of confidence goes through, but do you think it would make any difference whatsoever . It does seem as though people are coalescing around the point that he has to go. He is not proved to be a particularly good first minister. Hes going to be there probably for what, just a year . That would be the entirety of his reign. Well, thats the thing. Im not sure. Yeah. Because even even if he won this vote, where does that leave it leaves him teetering on the brink. In a sense, its the same thing that weve got down here with rishi sunak that the rishi sunak would would win a no confidence vote. But the mere fact youre holding it means that your authority does drain away. No, but i just i still dont see that theres much room. Even if he does reply to her letter, even if he does make some nice kind words , around the gender kind words, around the gender issues, i dont think its going to make much difference. He doesnt have that majority. The scottish conservatives are already said that they would fully, they want to put down the vote of no confidence. Theyre quite happy to see him gone. So i think that the odds are not in his favour. Im not sure theres anything that he can particularly offer up at the moment thats going to make the world of difference. Well, alex salmond has warned humza yousaf that he could go down in history as humza. The brief, yes. Pretty scathing , brief, yes. Pretty scathing, this morning. Oh, dear, nigel, lets have a look at the times front page, shall we . M15 checks , for academics to kerb threats from china. Tell us a bit more from china. Tell us a bit more about this. Yeah, im a bit surprised its not been done already, but 24 University Vice<\/a> chancellors were called in by ken mccallum, the boss of m15 and what hes saying to them is, if youre working on sensitive projects like a or Something Like<\/a> that , like a or Something Like<\/a> that, that the that m15 want to actually check you out because china, iran and russia are desperate to steal our secrets. Desperate to steal our secrets. And the argument goes that we beaver away actually getting a technological advantage. And then someone comes along and just whips it from under our noses. So if you actually check the academics out, you can make sure youve got people there who are basically not not spies. It are basically not not spies. It seems to me fairly straightforward thing to do. And straightforward thing to do. And as i say, what i am surprised aboutis as i say, what i am surprised about is security checks like this werent done in the first place. Yeah, its a big glaring question , isnt it . It is. Question, isnt it . It is. And you sort of think, was there a level of arrogance as to say, well, these people are professionals. Theyre coming into universities to, to work on these high level projects. But thats the first rule of spying is that you would go to the places where youre going to gain the most information and youll youll fit in. So if youre a professor and youre going to go to oxford or cambridge to go and look at the Research Programs<\/a> that would be the first place i would look if i were the Security Services<\/a>. So it does seem a little strange, but it was quite interesting that the universities, the vice chancellors, have been sort of hauled into a meeting for the very first time with the Security Services<\/a>. So hopefully this is now focused their attentions on perhaps who they let have access to their material. All right. Were to, down weve got a minute left or two minutes left. So lets talk about the james webb telescope. There you go, nigel. There you go, nigel. Yes, we definitely go in there. I love this one. This is great. Now, question space nerd as well. Yeah. Afraid so. Yeah. Absolutely what this is, is a is a star 124 light years away, which has got oceans of water. But the key thing on this star is its got a gas called, dimethyl sulphide , which can dimethyl sulphide, which can only be produced by life. So only be produced by life. So the. So this is why its actually quite exciting. Now, actually quite exciting. Now, unfortunately, theyre not sort of cuddly pets or anything like that. Itll probably be plankton or , or sort of tiny organisms, or, or sort of tiny organisms, but its the first time weve really found a, likely evidence that there is life in a different planet. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Star. In fact. Sorry, star. Star. In fact. Sorry, star. Not planet. Well, no. Not planet. Well, no. Not planet. Well, no. No planet. No planet. Well, its a planet. Yes, its a red dwarf. Its a red dwarf. Well, yeah, but. Well, its a planet. Its a big. Its a big. Its a big. Its a big planet. Its a big planet. Its a big planet going around the red dwarf. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Stephen, do you want to tell us a bit more about this . Us a bit more about this . Yeah. Yeah. Well, its a its a its a red dwarf. And its so its quite a lot smaller than the sun, but the planet is about two and a half times the size of earth. Isnt it, in an ocean world. And i still like to think that there would be some cuddly aliens. I dont want to think of it as plankton. I think that there needs to be intelligent life out there. Im with you, claire. Im with you, claire. Well, there will be, because if. I mean, if theres any life, you know, if we can find any signs of life, it means there is. There will be intelligent life elsewhere. But it is a long way away. But it is a long way away. So a voyager spacecraft would take 2 million years to actually reach it. And should they be intelligent . And they send us a message. 100 years ago, will still have to wait 24 more years to get it because of the light speed. There you go. There you go. Could happen in our lifetime, though. Thats fun. Could happen. Thats fun. Could happen. Thank you both. Thank you. Lets get a message from Annie Shuttleworth<\/a> right now. A brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on gb news. News. Hello. Good morning. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day, and theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds are going to bubble up though, as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. 1 think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry. Now towards the south we start to see clouds thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight and temperatures will be well below average for the time of yeah below average for the time of year. So another fairly cool day today. Cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening, so it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though, cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air, so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best the sunshine is likely to be in the morning, i think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry across the midlands though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed. And in the south, any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers. That warm feeling inside and from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news. Good morning to you. Its 7 00 on friday.

We were asking you earlier on, who would you like to be the next Prime Minister<\/a> and i did say out of the choice of keir starmer or rishi sunak, most of you saying rishi sunak, most of you saying rishi sunak. But not with any sense of, enthusiasm or enthusiasm. Yes. Thats safe to say. Yeah, a lot of people also saying neither. Saying neither. Yes, which doesnt bode well. Yes, which doesnt bode well. It doesnt bode well considering that is pretty much the choice when it comes to whos going to be the next Prime Minister<\/a>. Yeah, no excitement there, andifs yeah, no excitement there, and its a good point actually to rose because joining us now is the shadow secretary of state for business and trade, Jonathan Reynolds<\/a>. Good to see you this morning. Good morning. Before we morning. Good morning. Before we get on to the meat of matters this morning, youll have seen that we have this poll saying, labour has has an 11 point lead amongst gb news viewers and listeners , which is interesting listeners, which is interesting people this morning have no enthusiasm either way, really. And in terms of the General Health<\/a> of politics in the nation, thats not very good, is it . It . Well, good morning. Let me say first of all, that the people youve pulled there, obviously people of excellent, judgement and, sound, character there. But i mean, look, where is politics right now . Well when i go around the country, you know, weve got these elections on, on the 2nd of may, there is, first of all, a genuine desire for change, even amongst people who would describe themselves as very strong, historically conservative voters. And second of all, there is yes, i think a sense that weve been through a penod sense that weve been through a period where theres been a lot of drama. You know, youve had a lot of Prime Minister<\/a>s in a short space of time. Youve had a lot of elections in a short space of time, a lot of referendums in a short space of time. And actually, when i hear people talk about the choices that they that they believe are before them, yes, they want change, but they also want an end to this drama, and they want a government thats going to just knuckle down. Might not be as exciting as some of the Political Developments<\/a> have been in the last few years, but they want to get on with the things that government should do, sort out the nhs, get the transport system working better, build some homes for your children and yourself to live in. That is what labour is offering. So look, theres always going to be a degree of cynicism, about the political system. But i do think when you go back to how are people feeling right now, the kind of change they want is what labouris kind of change they want is what labour is offering. Well, i mean, and i mean, honestly, no, no disrespect because, i mean, i know mps actually do work very hard and i know its tough being in opposition. However there is this general sense that people are going, yeah, all right. Labour best of a bad bunch. Which doesnt say much for labour does it. In all your sort of. Well, people are sort of saying, well youre not the tories, therefore we might vote for you, but wheres the enthusiasm , why havent you been enthusiasm, why havent you been able to generate this enthusiasm . Well, 7 well, first, 7 well, first, i 7 well, first, i wouldnt accept the premise of that, to be fair. But lets be honest, the last general election saw labour get pretty much its worst result in history. And if youd asked me history. And if youd asked me honestly the day after that, i would have said its going to take more than one general election for labour to even be in the game. You know, were so far behind. Weve got things so wrong to be in a position. I mean. The hartlepool by election. Labour lost in hartlepool three years ago, just three years ago and here we are now looking at polls where clearly a lot of people are putting their faith in labour. They are looking at the options and saying yes, we want to make that change to a change of government. When the election is called, we not complacent about that, but weve got to keep making the case. I think honestly, the transformation in labour has been remarkable and i think a lot of the credit for that should go to keir starmer. A lot of people didnt think this was possible, so i cant underestimate the job that we have had to do. I cant stress enough the change that weve had to make to do that. It is, i think, different to what you saw in 1997 where youd obviously had an election before that, where labour came very close and there was a lot of kind of kind of labour actually just go that bit further and win it. Were trying to go from one of our worst results in history to what would be one of the best, and thats a big change. And i think alongside that, you saw some people vote conservative for the First Time Ever<\/a> in the last election and to be frankly, havent had what they thought they were being offered. And of course, when people have made that big jump and been let down, theyre going to be youre going to feel strongly about that. Theyre going to be cross and feel let down and weve got to do more to win those people oven do more to win those people over. But lets not underestimate the progress thats been made so far. Mr arnold, youve been talking about what the labour party is going to offer the british public, whats going to be offered in terms of defence. Do we know any more about whether the labour party is going to match the governments pledge to increase defence spending to 2. 5 of gdp by 2030 . We hear that you would consider a review if and when you come into power. But johnny mercer, the veterans minister, has said this just shows that labour party cant be trusted on defence, that they will allow that. A long winded review to take place whilst the world becomes more dangerous around us. Us. Im sorry ive got to laugh and comments like that now. Weve been clear we would like to have that commitment to 2. 5. Thatis to have that commitment to 2. 5. That is our commitment. We actually made that before the government did. But when conservative politicians are saying, will labour match the conservatives plans, ill say, well, show me the plans and ill tell you, we match the detail of those plans. I mean, the scale of how significant, particularly the army, has been hollowed out since 2010. I mean, when i was elected as an mp , the regular elected as an mp, the regular army would have been well over 110,000 soldiers. I mean, today its 75,000. Like every bit of the Public Services<\/a> we depend upon, its been heavily reduced in the last few years. And the idea, by the way, to sack some Civil Servants<\/a> and then produce the kind of turnaround that theyre talking about. So weve always been clear, yes, we match that commitment. Yes, we want to see that ambition going into 2030 of 2. 5 being spent of gdp being spent on defence. But dont ask us to match plans. The government themselves havent actually got. And of course, given weve had relatively recently, we were talking about a budget, the chance for the government to lay out those detailed plans. Since then, detailed plans. Since then, weve had a commitment to aboush weve had a commitment to abolish national insurance. So theres 46 billion added to conservative plans. Now weve got this commitment. I dont know how theyve got to the figure of \u00a375 billion for that, by the way. But you know, lets be frank, this is not serious stuff from the government. This is an Election Campaign<\/a> without the election being called. So i would probably say to the government, call the Election Campaign<\/a>, lets have the two manifestos, but dont possibly even dare suggest youve got a stronger record on defence when youve hollowed out the army as much as youve done over the last 14 years. Who are we meant to believe when it comes to . I mean, the figures about how much money weve got in our pockets now. I weve got in our pockets now. I mean, the labour party, the shadow chancellor, Rachel Reeves<\/a>, is saying, you know, despite the changes to the tax system, which is meant to put more money in our pocket, inflation means that weve got less. Inflation is coming under control. Now, i dont know what control. Now, i dont know what the exact figure is. You all know three point something or other percent. So its coming down towards target, is Rachel Reeves<\/a> right to say actually were still out of pocket despite the fact that inflation is coming down . Oh yes. Oh yes. I mean, its a straightforward yes to that one because obviously, first of all, when inflation comes down, its not a reduction in prices. P\ufb01ces not a reduction in prices. Prices are still going up. Theyre just going up. Not as fast as they were. And inflation has been so high that any gains people have got in their pay packet, if theyre getting it round about this time in the month, they will still be worse off. I mean, one of the most shocking things is that this has been the First Parliament<\/a> really in modern history , where people in modern history, where people will be less well off at the end of the parliament than they were at the beginning of it. And the kind of change the big change thats required. Of course, we all want to see inflation come back 3. 2. Its come down to what we need is that big step change in how the uk economy is performing. Thats going to mean performing. Thats going to mean building some homes. Thats a big part of labours plan. Its going to mean having a better relationship with some of our key trading markets, including the european union, moving past brexit, just getting sure thats the right trading deal, sorting out the apprenticeship levy. Its going to mean having some real ambition on net zero, on industrial policy, not seeing what weve got, this week again in port talbot, thousands of job losses with significant government money going in for not much coming out of it. You need this big step change. And for the government to say, well, weve turned a corner weve got there. Look, i judge how there. Look, ijudge how inflation is doing. Im at home today. Im talking to you from my home in stalybridge. I go to stalybridge tesco and i see the price of ketchup of cereal. I mean this this is what really matters to people. And it is gone up to a degree that no ones going to be feeling. You know, the good times are back when they get their pay packet this week with a few pence of national insurance. Mr reynolds, last week got you. You mentioned shops there and it does lead me on nicely to this story. Its on the front page of the daily mail this morning. Actually, its about shoplifting in this country. It appears to be an epidemic. New figures out this morning show that shoplifting is occurring once a minute in this country at the moment. 430,000 incidents a day. How would the labour party fix this . Fix this . Well, its an outrage. Well, its an outrage. I mean, let me say very clearly as well, this is organised crime. You know, this is not people in hard times shoplifting. In the main, this is organised crime. Weve done a lot of work with the usdaw trade union and with big retailers like the co operative group, around the kind of technology and support for shop workers. But fundamentally, our plan is to implement the Police Efficiency<\/a> plan thats on the table, put more police into the police force and use those to tackle. You know, sometimes people think this isnt the most serious type of crime, but it is because its serious organised crime. It blights urban areas crime. It blights urban areas means you cant have the kind of regeneration in the kind of retail and town centre and high street spaces that are vibrant, and we all want to see. So fundamentally for us, its about more police, but theres work that can be done working with retailers and unions as well. To do that. Something called the freedom from Fear Campaign<\/a> covers violence against shop workers as well. But this is a really, really serious issue. Okay. Jonathan reynolds, shadow secretary of state for business and trade. Very good to see you this morning. Thank you very much indeed. Well, interesting points made. Yeah. Interesting points made. Yeah. Interesting points made. Hes a good performer , made. Hes a good performer, actually. I was just listening to them thinking hes a good doesnt necessarily mean you have to agree with him what hes saying, but hes a good performer in a way that keir starmer isnt. Hes personable. Hes personable. Isnt he very personable . Keir starmer is just a bit flat. I dont know, its but its that enthusiasm that that a lot of you not all of you, but a lot of you not all of you, but a lot of you getting in touch this morning, you know, just you dont care who it is. Youre fed up with all of them. Yeah. Now, which is not a good place to be in. Youve got to have some enthusiasm for , for politics, enthusiasm for, for politics, for a party, for your beliefs. Whichever party you believe in and trust. And it just doesnt seem to be there. Sean coopers been in touch on gbnews. Com slash usa saying im a proper right wing conservative. I despise the labour party. However, Jonathan Reynolds<\/a> comes across as a really decent bloke. He talks a lot of sense. I think he might be in the wrong party. So there you go. I think i disagree with you there. I dont think you should despise a party. I think you should be in a position where youve got to listen to what they say because they shift positions. So much. I mean, some people say theres not that much between the tories and the labour party in a, which is why some of them, of course, are going, you know, some of you are going, you know, some of you are going over to reform because you say theres not enough difference between the two main parties , anyway, if you if you parties, anyway, if you if you fed up with politics hard lock because theres going to be an awful lot of it strap in. Its going to be a very busy yeanisnt its going to be a very busy year, isnt it. It is. And although theres no parliamentary elections in scotland till 2026 as it currently stands , well, its all currently stands, well, its all happening there as well because tensions are simmering after the greens have revealed theyre going to vote against the first minister, humza yousaf, in a vote of no confidence. Yes, the decision follows the collapse of the snps power sharing deal with the greens yesterday, leaving mr yousaf in charge of a minority government. Well, the no confidence motion proposed by the scottish conservative leader, douglas ross, who said the snp leader was weak and a failed first minister. Well , joining us now is gb well, joining us now is gb news Political Correspondent<\/a> olivia utley. A lot to unpack here, olivia, do you think that humza yousaf can survive this . Can survive this . Well, my instinct is that ultimately yusef probably cant survive this. There will be this vote of no confidence probably early next week. And the result of that all depends, amazingly, on a woman called ash regan. On a woman called ash regan. Now, ash regan was an snp mp, but she fell out massively with humza yousaf. She ran against him in the leadership contest, but they disagreed on trans rights as regan, as if the jk rowling school of thought. Shes worried that womens rights are being eroded, and eventually this disagreement with yousaf became so huge that she defected from the snp and joined the alba party, which is Alex Salmonds<\/a> breakaway nationalist party. Now, because the snp is one seat short of a majority in holyrood with out ash regans vote in the vote of no confidence , humza vote of no confidence, humza yousaf looks destined to lose that vote now. If he loses that vote, obviously he will have to stand down. But even if ash regan puts aside her differences with yusef and ends up voting for him in this vote of no confidence, i think its quite likely that yousaf will have to leave anyway. In the very short term. Yes, he can cling on to term. Yes, he can cling on to his position, but in the long term his position becomes untenable. If you think back to the days of theresa may with her, with without a majority, with her confidence and supply agreement with the dup , what agreement with the dup, what happened was every time there was an important vote in the house of commons, she would lose those brexit votes that went on over and over and over again. And eventually she just had to stand down because her government wasnt able to govern. And it seems quite likely that something quite similar will happen with humza yousaf if ash regan votes for him this week. Thats no guarantee that in the future, on subsequent votes, she will vote with him. And what could probably happen is that yousaf will end up losing vote after vote after vote and eventually his own party would turn against him. Him. Okay, olivier, for now, thanks very much indeed. Now, at 7 16, lets take a look at some other stories coming to the newsroom this morning. Well, the worlds first personalised mrna jab for melanoma is being tested in the uk. A british teacher was the first person to get the jab on what is being described as a groundbreaking clinical trial. I had any fear because, i just, by doing the trial , i feel just, by doing the trial, i feel like im actively doing something to give it a kicking. Basically a 13 Year Old Girl<\/a> has been charged with three counts of attempted murder after two teachers and a pupil were stabbed at a mad Valley School<\/a> in wales on wednesday. The teachers and the pupil have now been released from hospital after being treated for those stab wounds. Vice chancellors from 24 leading universities have been warned by m15 that foreign states are targeting british institutions to undermine National Security<\/a>. The government and Security Services<\/a> are worried that Cutting Edge Research<\/a> could be targeted by foreign states. Now, across the foreign states. Now, across the country, Nuclear Test Veterans<\/a> and campaigners are suing the government over missing medical records belonging to those involved in atomic bomb programs more than 70 years ago. Yes, tens of thousands of british and commonwealth servicemen took part in various operations , and now veterans operations, and now veterans want their medical records to prove they were exposed to levels of radiation, which have impacted generations of their family. Our reporter jack carson has the story. Between 1955 and 1989, an average of 55 Nuclear Tests<\/a> were conducted across the globe. Each yean conducted across the globe. Each year, more than 30,000 young british and commonwealth servicemen served at british test locations in australia and the pacific ocean. But in the years since, those who were involved say theyve been ignored and lied to about their exposure to radiation. For decades, lab rats international has represented the millions across the world, exposed to fallout from the Testing Programs<\/a> and the families who still suffer today from illness and deformities. Still suffer today from illness and deformities. In gloucestershire, founder of lab rats, alan owen meets with veterans Dennis Hayden<\/a> and terry hughes, who were deployed to atomic test sites. Dennis was posted to australia in the 1960s and has suffered Countless Health<\/a> problems he believes are because of his exposure to radiation. We were part of an Experimental Program<\/a> that was set in motion right at 1952. At the start, they wanted to know the effects of radiation would have not only on the equipment that was being used, but on the men themselves. And but on the men themselves. And thats why none of us had any protective clothing when we went to the forward areas. Terry hughes was part of the royal fleet auxiliary, the support branch of the royal navy. He was deployed to Christmas Island<\/a> in 1958, and witnessed to the detonation of a Hydrogen Bomb<\/a> , and the resident Hydrogen Bomb<\/a>, and the resident naval officer had to come out and explain to everybody there was nothing to worry about. It was only a bomb that would be exploded and we wouldnt feel any effects at all. And then we had a countdown for the bomb. Five, four, three, two, one. And once again we watched the fireball as it forms, proclaiming that britain joins the United States<\/a> and russia as a Hydrogen Bomb<\/a> power. My wife had one miscarriage and, my son cant have any children. Ive got a granddaughter has an epileptic fit. Last year, the government unveiled the nuclear test medal, recognising the military, civilian and overseas staff and personnel who participated in britains Nuclear Testing<\/a> program in the 1950s and 1960s. But for lab rats founder alan owen, whose own father was a Nuclear Test Veteran<\/a>, the work is only just beginning. In september, they launched a legal challenge to the ministry of defence to provide the test veterans full medical records, which they say theyve been denied access to. We sit in this bubble as the Nuclear Test Veteran<\/a> Community Fighting<\/a> against the establishment, and they will say, you know, ministers will go in parliament and say, all youve got to do is apply for your medical records and theyll give them to you. Yeah, it just doesnt happen. Its not a reality. Theyre not there to is easy as accessible as just applying. They will fight you all the way. They will delay it. In response, a Government Spokesperson<\/a> said we are grateful to all Service Personnel<\/a> who participate in the british Nuclear Testing<\/a> programme, which is why we have formally recognised them with an official medal. Nuclear test veterans who believe they have suffered ill health due to service have the existing and long standing right to apply for no fault compensation under the war pensions scheme. The fight for these veterans and their families lives on because thousands who came before never got the recognition and justice for their service, jack dawson, gb news. Its remarkable what those people went through actually , people went through actually, and i know, i know, people didnt fully understand the dangers and things back then. Yeah, they deserve the truth now, dont they . Of course they do. Of course they do. They do. All of these things that come to light, isnt it . So many years on . Its get to the bottom of it. Yeah. All right. Shall we see what the weathers going to do for us today . Lets. With annie. With annie. A brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on gb news. News. News. News. Hello. Good morning. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day, and theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds going to bubble up though, as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. 1 think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry. North should stay fairly dry. Now towards the south we start to see cloud thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales, into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight, and temperatures will be well below average for the time of yeah below average for the time of year. So another fairly cool day to day cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening. So it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though, cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air, so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best of the sunshine is likely to be in the morning, i think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry. Across the midlands, though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed and in the south any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers.

Theres a new migraine drug, but why cant the 11 Million People<\/a> who struggle with the condition in this country get access to it . Well find out more after the break. Now a new migraine drug called a tojapan will only be prescribed tojapan will only be prescribed to a maximum of 170,000 brits. Yeah well, thats why it means that about 11 million uk sufferers who get debilitating migraines several times a week just wont be able to access the treatment. Well, experts and doctors are urging people to explore alternative approaches to managing their condition. Yeah, but begs the question whats the point in launching a new drug if most people cant get hold of it . Well, joining us now is chief scientific officer at microsoft, doctor peter charter. Good to see you this morning. Doctor well thats the key question isnt it. Whats the point in launching this new drug if people cant access it . Well, the reason i mean, this drug is designed as kind of the third or the fourth line treatment. So youll go to your doctor , theyll give you one doctor, theyll give you one thing. Youll go to your neurologist, theyll give you another thing because its a new drug and its very expensive. Its about \u00a3500 a month. Oh, and you can imagine this is really for people whove got chronic migraine , and they have to have migraine, and they have to have at least 15 days a month before the nhs will be prescribing it. Right. So its designed as sort of a third line of defence. Right. But there are many alternatives. You dont actually alternatives. You dont actually have to do that. You can actually look at supplementation to try and stop the migraines happening in the first place. And also a tojapan isnt really a remedy. I mean, its not going to stop migraines. Its just going to reduce your migraines. Going to reduce your migraines. Just like all of the all of the therapies, even even vitamins , therapies, even even vitamins, do the same thing. They dont stop it. Theyre not a cure. But you can radically reduce the number of migraines you get. Number of migraines you get. Are we seeing more people suffering with migraines . Lots more. Because what do we know why that is . Because do we even know what is what causes them in the first place . With some people, well, we think that there are , basically if you look there are, basically if you look at the vitamin, which is vitamin b2, it gives energy. So there are probably constraints in your energy production. Youre not converting your food or carbohydrates into enough energy in certain parts of the brain cell. And you get a certain point where theres a restriction. Then thats not just a headache, its debilitating. Its stopping your eyes from working. Youre eyes from working. Youre heanng eyes from working. Youre hearing you might get all sorts of weird and wonderful effects. Of weird and wonderful effects. So thats when it becomes a critical thing. Now, why are we getting more . I think were getting more . I think were getting loads of chronic diseases , and i think were diseases, and i think were getting chronic diseases because of ultra processed foods, because the lack of nutrients in our food. And i think because we use antibiotic picks, were cleaner than ever. Weve been weve got antivirals going on. So all these things, you know, are not what a human being are 500 years or 200 years ago, even in victorian times , would be in victorian times, would be full of filth. Yeah. Which were too clean. Which were too clean. Which were too clean. Are we. We are too clean and also, you know, at the same time we dont get enough vitamin d because were not out there because were not out there because were not out there because were all were totally covered and even if youve got glass and youve got sunlight, you dont really get vitamin d, you dont really get vitamin d, you actually have to be outside to get that vitamin d and vitamin d is activating your immune system. So we have a few Different Things<\/a> all building up. But the idea of ultra processed foods is, you know, when we start interfering and we have everything that we microwave, weve got pre processed. You know, just pre processed. You know, just imagine most apples we in this country are probably a year old, you know , because theyve been you know, because theyve been theyve gone to storage, theyve been put in an atmosphere where theyre stored. So you do think there must be some effect on that fruit. And then if you look at whats happened to fruit and vegetables since the 1980s, theyve all been designed so theyve all been designed so they dont go off. So if you that means theyre never ripe. They never smell. And that also means that theyve got less vitamin b, less vitamin c, all of the vitamins you could want are much less than theyve ever been. So these are the reason why were getting loads of chronic problems. Like they dont kill you, migraines dont kill you, but they stop you from functioning. Theyre debilitating, though, arent they . If anyone that does suffers, i mean, especially if you suffer badly with them, you cant get out of bed. Well, thats the difference between a normal headache and a migraine. A migraine will just really stop you from doing anything. Your main function. What i dont understand then, because obviously theres been i mean, theres been various medications over the counter and prescription that have been around for years. And now this new one. But if, if, if one of the Key Solutions<\/a> can be supplements in the fact that you can just buy or order or buy over the counter. Yeah. Then why hasnt that been explored in the past . You would have thought that had been a first option. Has. Itsjust people dont has. Its just people dont know about it. So the National Institute<\/a> of clinical excellence or nice , theyre the people who or nice, theyre the people who authorise the drugs that the nhs can use. Theyve said that vitamin b2 in high dose since 2012, theyve had it on a paper. But most gps are not aware of it because theres no one funding that you know, gps get awareness because a Big Drug Company<\/a> will say to them, come and have a look at our new treatment. And in fact they forget about the old treatments because the new treatments look better. Better. So what have you got in front of you now . So this is this is a product that ive been responsible for creating called micro soothe. And this has 400 times the normal dose of vitamin b2 and riboflavin , which is b2. You riboflavin, which is b2. You know, when you buy your rice krispies, theyll fortify it with riboflavin. This is whats in there. But you cant actually get that amount in normal food. Its actually very, very difficult. So if even if, for example, you had a bowl of nuts or you had some asparagus, youd literally have to have kilos of it because there isnt enough , it because there isnt enough, because this contains is it dangerous to eat that . But just were out or we out every day. So the only the real i mean, thats the colour of it. So the real side effect that people will, will find is that their wig goes luminescent yellow. But that were going luminescent yellow is because vitamin b2 gets flushed out of the system. But what it does, why . How does but what it does, why . How does it stop . The migraine is the question. So in all of our cells, weve got these little back, if you like, batteries called mitochondria, theyre the things that make energy. If you remember your high school science, its all coming back to me now. Yeah. Thousands of these little duracell things, which are converting. So by flooding your body with vitamin b2, the mitochondria are being activated. That stops the migraine from happening in the first place. So you remember when i told you migraines . There are all sorts of reasons, potentially because theyre actually 100 different migraines as well. So when that energy is produced and youve got to take it for a few months, by the way, its not something thats going to work straight away. Some people get effect in a week, but most people the nhs document says youve got to use it for three months. Oh but if its only \u00a30. 30 a day, its not. Its a lot more affordable isnt it . Its a lot more. But then the other thing is people say, well, i just came in to the building here and the guy said, well, i take a multi vitamin every day. Yes you can take a multi vitamin every day, but that contains 0. 7mg of riboflavin. This is 400mg. So a lot of the therapies do not happen when youve got tiny amounts of them. Oh right. That kind of gives you the background. Yeah. Background. Yeah. Its fascinating. It is actually. And if you can do if actually. And if you can do if you can do stuff which is more natural than your medication, if youve got chapped lips, thats a sign that your vitamin b2 is low. Oh, really . Oh, really . Thats it. If you take this, your chapped lips will go. Youre its actually very good for cataracts. Its very good for cataracts. Its very good for cataracts. Its very good for skin because dont forget, were just energised our body. And also by the way, women are more badly affected with migraines and thats thats why migraines and thats thats why migraines were always underdiagnosed and especially around menopause thats another trigger. So hormonal things affect women as well. For the migraines. Migraines. Well i might pop one of those. And yes, i will get migraines and ill have very kissable lips. Oh well, your husband will be very popular when i get home. Yes, doctor. Yes, doctor. Chard, a really good to see you. Thank chard, a really good to see you. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Now, do you stay with us still to come . Weve got all the latest sports with next. Welcome back. Its sports time. It is. It is. Pauls here. Pauls here. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Its football shirt friday today. And i was going to wear a football. Ive never been a big football. Ive never been a big football shirt wearer, to be honest with you. No but i do have this. And i thought maybe you could wear this now look at that. Now thats a sort of g. Now thats a sort of g. What do you think about that then . Its actually a vest and theres a story behind it. Its got Champions League<\/a> on there because i stole it from oh well i borrowed it permanently. Champions league final 2019. When spurs were playing liverpool 1 was there and at the end of the game, because liverpool won the Champions League<\/a> final, i thought id have a little Wander Around<\/a> the dugouts and see what i could get my hands on. Yeah, because i was very miserable and that was divock origi. I believe the man that scored the winning goal for liverpool, hes substitute shirt, which was on it was just on the side and i thought ill just pick up that. Yeah, yeah i thought so. I was walking along with it and i thought nobody stopped me and i just put it in my pocket. So there it is. Have you given it a wash, no, its still smells of divock origi. There you go. It smells of. There you go. Champions League Winner<\/a> there. What do you think, well excellent. But i dont think for football shirt friday because football shirt friday because football shirt friday is all about bobby moore. Fund raises money to help those with testicular cancer and research and awareness. And its because bobby moore died at the age of 51. You know, the greatest players of all time. Yeah, have testicular cancer. So thats what bobby, bobby moore and the Bobby Moore Fund<\/a> is all about. And its about wearing a. So you donate and you wear your football shirt today. Its a great cause. Its a great cause. Its a great cause. It is a great. It is a great. So wheres your shirt. So wheres your shirt. Well thats it. Thats the one ive got. I just brought that along. Oh. So you need to be popping that off because i was, you know, i have to dress smartly for this. So i can wear football shirt. You could, you could have got you could have got away with wearing your arsenal top today. Can you imagine . Can you imagine. Oh my goodness me. Oh makes me nervous about today. All right lets talk man city yeah man city won four nil against brighton yesterday. So theyre doing what they do i mentioned that earlier. Theyre winning games at the end of the season. They are now one point behind arsenal who are top of the premier league with a game in hand. So probably most people would think Manchester City<\/a>. But all depends whether they slip up. So liverpool playing west ham, who did have a slip up the other day at 1230. Then weve got man city away at nottingham forest. We expect them to win and then the north london derby. Arsenal away sunday at spurs. Arsenal away sunday at spurs. Yes. Sunday afternoon, should we talk about red bull. Yes. Sunday afternoon, should we talk about red bull. Theres yes. Sunday afternoon, should we talk about red bull. Theres a lot of drama going on there isnt there . Is there adrian newey. Now hes the chief designer there. So hes the man that designs the cars. And its the cars that are making red bull win. Wed say more than anything else, and theyre so far ahead of everybody else. Theyve won everybody else. Theyve won every grand prix. Again, this, this season. So its all around the Christian Horner<\/a> controversy. And it seems that adrian newey does not look very favourably on whats going on at red bull. And hes decided to step away. So i imagine theres going to be a lot of teams that are going to be very interested in him coming to them. Can you imagine itd be an open cheque, wouldnt it . The amount of money thats in f1, surely hes got to be on gardening leave for a few seasons. Well yeah i gardening leave for a few seasons. Well yeah 1 how all that will work. I have absolutely no idea. But we know theres going to be big money involved. But there seems so everything thats going well on the track off the track, not so red. Oh, can we mention i know were a bit tight for time. Can were a bit tight for time. Can we mention sweden and var and theyve said no , nay, nay, nay theyve said no, nay, nay, nay to var every more or less every country around europe has var video assistant referee sweden havent and theyve now said no , havent and theyve now said no, that they dont want var because theyve seen everywhere else. Theyve seen everywhere else. Now var for me its kind of like you know its like a dodgy policeman there thats saying no, i dont want to see any evidence. Well just go with what we decide because var whenever you see it, whatever you think about it, its just showing pictures of whats happening. It is evidence of whats happening. Its the way its being used. But the swedes are saying we dont want it. Its causing all this problem around europe. So therefore around europe. So therefore were going to keep things as we are, and theyre going to be the only country that says nay, nay. It reminds me of the knights that say nay. There you go. You all get that one. You know, theres another film for you to watch. Oh, its my very long. Another old film to watch. Youll know what were talking about. You will. Paul, thank you very much indeed. Ive got the papers heading away very shortly with nigel and clare. Nigel nelson and clare pearce are here to take us through the papers this morning. Lets kick off with this, should we . Chris philp on question time, this is what happened. What happened. Had my family members come from goma on a on a crossing right now, would they then be sent back to the country that theyre supposedly war in rwanda . Does that make any sense to you . To you . No. I think theres an exclusion on people from rwanda being sent, not from rwanda. Theyre from congo, from congo, and theyre supposedly from congo. Theyre supposedly war in these people, from rwanda. Are they then going to be sent to rwanda if they came here on a crossing from from congo . Yeah would people be sent from. Well, i mean, randa is a different country, congo, isnt it . Its a different country. It is. Yes, definitely. It is. Yes, definitely. Youre saying if they come from a war zone in. Oops. Oh dear nigel. Oops. Oh dear nigel. Oh dear. Oh dear. I think wes streeting , face i think wes streeting, face was an absolute picture on that one, yeah. I mean, obviously chris felt hadnt worked out what was going on in rwanda and neighbouring congo, where in fact theres a civil war going on, supported by the rwandan president , paul kagame , 500,000 president , paul kagame, 500,000 people have been displaced there. Theres rebels, the m23 rebels, who are raping and murdering through the country. And in fact, that there are an awful lot of congolese refugees in rwanda. Theyre there through the united nations. Also, some evacuees from libya. And these are people they volunteer to go. Unlike our scheme, which is compulsory, they volunteer to go. And the idea is theyre in transit. Theyre looking for a the un is looking for a new home for them. But i mean, really chris philp should have been up to speed on the fact that these are two distinct countries with quite a bit going on in both of them. Yes i feel a bit sorry for him in that politicians have to be across everything dont they. But i mean you really should have known that. But yes, because hes also just voted to say that rwanda is a safe country. Now if youre voting on something as spectacularly large as that, you would understand the geography of the region that youre going to look at. Just pull up a map, look at the countries surrounding it. That would be the really basic thing. And being former adviser to a minister sometime , you just have minister sometime, you just have to do it as basically as that. Just say these are the countries, this is how you say them in case theres any difficult words and you spell it out very, very basically. So why he wasnt quite prepared, 1 dont know. But wes streeting , dont know. But wes streeting, side i, i think has got to be the meme of the week going forward. It was quite stunning and just, it just shows that you need to you need to be prepared. If youre going to go on and answer these questions, you need to have a good grasp of the subject. And he is a former immigration minister, so he doesnt really have much excuse. No, no he doesnt. No, no he doesnt. Claire, should we take a look at the guardian front page . And the Prime Minister<\/a> is being urged to write off fines for unpaid carers. Yeah. Now, this, this story on the surface of it, you sort of think, well, here we go again, writing off more money, but really quite serious that carers allowance is the grand total of \u00a381. 90 a week, which for somebody to take care of a loved one and save all of us an awful lot of money and hard work , if they have any extra earnings which take them over \u00a3151, even just by a penny , the \u00a3151, even just by a penny, the dwp can then claw back the entire carers allowance amount. And what has happened . Some and what has happened . Some people have inadvertently gone over by a few pounds or a few pence, and the dwp has not alerted them quickly. So youve got people now owing tens of thousands of pounds in back fines to the government, because the dwp has then deemed them to have been paid incorrectly. It cannot be right, it really cant. And i think when youre talking about people who are caring for loved ones, they are doing an incredibly difficult job. They are having to support a family in a house at the same time, they are saving us all an awful lot of money and theyre doing this because its the right thing to do, and they love that person. And here we are going to persecute them by saying, youve earned too much money. I mean, if they have to pay back the difference. So the, you know, if theyve earned \u00a35 over, if they have to pay that \u00a35 back, then thats different. Back, then thats different. Ive got some sympathy with that. But at the moment you can be a penny over and have to pay your full, your full \u00a381, 90 back. Yeah, and thats got to be unjust. Unjust. Yeah. Yeah. But thats this is someone sticking to the letter of the law, not the spirit of the law, isnt it . But i think also the problem is the dwp arent quick enough to tell people. So it could be one of those sort of inadvertent things. Your, your payment penod things. Your, your payment period was two days too long or you earned a little bit extra for a little bit of overtime or Something Like<\/a> that, which you dont realise is taking you oven dont realise is taking you over. And the dwp taking years to tell you and thats thats not. And then you face a \u00a35,000 fine at the end of it, which because youre taking all of your care, youre taking it all, taking all of it back. Yeah, yeah, it just cant be. It cant be. Right. Its a very small amount of money for the job that they do. And we should be really thankful that theyre doing it. Its a tough job as well, isnt it, clarisse . Another one of your. Sorry, nigel, but you can get involved. Get involved . Thank you. Thank you. Its a problem that i have. Theres too much choice out there. You spend too long channel hopping. Yes. On something to watch . Yes. You do 100 gb news. Of course. Of course, 183 hours a year in channel hopping. But in just trying to choose a pro, in just trying to settle on something to watch, because we all now have so much choice in different channels and different platforms, you can spend an awful lot of time getting. No, i dont like that, dont like that and flicking and flicking and apparently this causes a spiral of anxiety in individuals. Well, now i know what im suffering from. I mean, i think we spend double the double this time sort of working out what programmes to watch, but i cant use the, use the remote. Very well. So ive so far negotiated it as far as gb news. I can get that on, but claire has to do all the rest with the, with the, the thing to get me on to the these channels thing. The thing. Right. So the doofer becomes my control because, well, im not surprised. I assumed. Right. Anyway obviously, but nigel cant manage the menu system. Oh. Or remember channel numbers just to go there quickly. So if youre trying to find a different platform, then you need to get apps and you need to press the button. But the benefit of that is that you cant defend yourself. Nigel. Right but well see you both a little bit later on. Heres the weather. A brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on. Gb news. Hello. Good morning. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day, and theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds going to bubble up though as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. 1 think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry. Now towards the south we start to see cloud thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales , into parts of the of wales, into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight. Northwards throughout tonight. And temperatures will be well below average for the time of yean below average for the time of year. So another fairly cool day to day cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening. So it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air, so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best of the sunshine is likely to be in the morning, i think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry. Across the midlands, though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed and in the south any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers as that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on after ripping up his Coalition Agreement<\/a> with the greens. After an explosive day in scottish politics, one might wonder if this is finally the moment that the writing is on the wall for humza yousaf. Join us as we analyse and make credible day of politics here in scotland. Yesterday a poll of gb news viewers has revealed that the labour party are 11 points ahead of the conservatives. Another worrying sign for the Prime Minister<\/a> its bad news for rishi sunak, but there is a glimmer of hope. The conservatives are more trusted on immigration. Could the rwanda plan save the Prime Minister<\/a>s skin . Skin . The disgraced mogul, caught by the Metoo Movement<\/a> , harvey by the Metoo Movement<\/a>, Harvey Weinstein<\/a>, has his 2020 conviction overturned. Conviction overturned. A revolutionary new jab is bringing hope of a possible cure to skin cancer as it begins trials in the uk and the prince of wales surprised his students in the West Midlands<\/a> during a school trip to support Mental Health<\/a>, and he revealed his favourite dad joke along the way i knock knock em knock knock sir. Interrupting cow moo. Cow moo. My dogs got no nose. My dogs got no nose. How does he smell . How does he smell . Horrible. Horrible. Oh very good. Oh very good. Okay. In the sport this morning, Manchester City<\/a> are on arsenals tail and could smell blood as they beat brighton four nil. Still with the game in hand , luke little upsets liverpool fans and the chinese swimming story. Olympic swimmers are now likely to sue wada, who said theyd sue usada due to the announcement by chinas. Announcement by chinas. Good morning. Its a cloudy start today , but will there be start today, but will there be any more sunshine over the weekend . Well, you can find out all the details with me a little later on. Morning to you. Morning to you. Im Stephen Dixon<\/a> and im ellie costello, and this is breakfast on. Gb news. Breakfast on. Gb news. Perhaps we should get some dad jokes. Oh, thats a good idea. Oh, thats a good idea. As Prince William<\/a>s making them trendy again. I quite liked the one from Prince William<\/a>. Ive not heard that one before, though. It was quite nice. I thought it was very good. I thought his delivery was good. Its all in the comic timing and hes all in the timing. Comedic timing, 1 just like the fact he comes across as human, sort of human. Yes. Theres even the apparently charlottes favourite joke. Oh is it princess charlottes favourite joke . Which is lovely, isnt it . Really i think theyve all got the funny bone. Yeah, weve all the funny bone. Yeah, weve all got a sense of humour, bernadette says. Bernadette says. Can you repeat the vitamins, please . That was on vitamins that can help you with migraines and things more preventative. I guess you have to take them every day. Yeah but the key one was riboflavin. Was riboflavin. Youve got a very good memory. Yeah. Yeah. Riboflavin b2. Riboflavin b2. Riboflavin b2. Yes. Well, b2 is, b2 is riboflavin. So. Between us. Between us. Yes. So between us were yes. So between us were across it. But you need to take about 400mg a day. Yes. So there you go. So i think the brand that was here was. Well, no, i would not say that because thats advertising then. Okay. Cant say that. Okay. Cant say that. No, i wouldnt say that, but yeah. Riboflavin 400mg. Thats b2. Yeah now, should we go to scotland . Yes because tensions are simmering after the greens revealed their plans to vote against first minister humza yousaf in a vote of no confidence. Well, that follows a collapse of the snps power sharing deal with the greens yesterday, leaving mr yousaf in charge of now a minority government. While the no confidence motion was proposed by scottish conservative leader douglas ross, who branded the snp leader weak and a failed first minister. Lets head to glasgow and ask scotland reporter tony mcguire. Scotland reporter tony mcguire. Morning, tony. What a day in scottish politics. Yesterday indeed, certainly one of the most animated days that i can remember in quite some time. And lets face it, over the last 15 months or so, there have been no shortage of them. But indeed, this quite incredible moment yesterday morning, only three of these meetings of the cabinet unscheduled have been have been ever happened in the past. And obviously including an alex salmond budget back in 2009 that his minority government couldnt pass. And then, i believe just after brexit, where plans started imminently on the next independence referendum, that is obviously still not materialised. But yesterday certainly seems to be one of those meetings that has had the biggest effect, because not only did it leave humza yousaf and snp with a minority government, but its also turned their yesterday allies into tomorrows opponents. Now certainly douglas ross was there and form the first question at fmqs to launch this motion of no confidence. But then as the day progressed, we heard from the political leaders of all of scotlands parties, with the exception maybe of alba. How about we look maybe of alba. How about we look at this . We can confirm today that on behalf of the scottish conservatives, 1 am lodging a vote of no confidence in humza yousaf. He is a failed first minister. He is unfit for office. Shouldnt this be the end of the road for this week . First minister, the snp have lost their way. Theyre weak, divided, incompetent and putting party before country isnt it time to end the circus and call an election . There are no circumstances under which the scottish liberal democrats would express confidence in either. The first minister, humza yousaf , or his failing yousaf, or his failing government. We no longer have confidence in a progressive government in scotland doing the right thing for climate and nature, so the scottish green msps will not be supporting humza yousaf in a vote of no confidence. Vote of no confidence. So there we have it. Now if we do the maths here, it looks like theres essentially 64 would vote with the snp and 64 without. Thats not including any abstentions and it could be that the casting vote will fall in the hands of ash regan. Now in the hands of ash regan. Now its expected that ash regan, who is the holyrood leader of the alba party, which of course was founded by alex salmond, well, she is expected to give her conditions to humza yousaf later today , but lots of people later today, but lots of people will be asking what happens next . What happens if humza yousaf fails this vote of no confidence . Well, unlike a vote of no confidence in the government, humza yousaf is under no obligation to step down. However, his credibility will take such a hit that it is very likely that his tenure will soon become untenable. Soon become untenable. Okay, tony, thanks very much indeed. Now, a new gb news poll has revealed good news for the labour party. According to our viewers, they are 11 points ahead of the conservatives now. Gb news viewers and listeners also trust labour more with the cost of living, the nhs and housing. Well, joining us now is gb news Political Correspondent<\/a>, olivia utley. What do you make of this olivia . Of this olivia . Well, its pretty damning for news the Prime Minister<\/a>. Weve of course, seen worse polls for the conservative. Was labour only being 11 points ahead is actually quite unusual, but the fact that gb news viewers feel like this, an audience who rishi sunak would perhaps expect to have on side, is pretty revealing. The only sort of revealing. The only sort of shred of hope for the Prime Minister<\/a> that i can see in this is that the conservatives are still more trusted on illegal migration than the labour party, and obviously thats an issue which is really, really important to the general public. Again and again, it comes either first or second in the british publics biggest concerns with whats happening in the uk now. Rishi sunak finally managed to get his rwanda policy over the political line as it were, this week. The bill has received royal assent and we are expecting flights to take off to rwanda in the next 6 to 10 weeks. What sunak is really, really hoping is that once those planes get going and hopefully prove to be a deterrent to migrants coming over here, who will see that, that their fellows are getting deported and hopefully the Prime Minister<\/a> is thinking well decide not to come. Well that could give rishi sunak the boost in the polls that he so desperately needs. But being so behind on so many other issues could be very problematic, particularly as one ace that the Prime Minister<\/a> thinks he has up his sleeve is pushing, leaving the echr on the conservatives manifesto will actually. This poll of gb news viewers suggests that the majority would like to stay in the echr. So perhaps that trump card isnt quite as valuable as the Prime Minister<\/a> had thought. The Prime Minister<\/a> had thought. Okay, olivia, are you there for us in westminster . Thank you very much indeed. Now, in a Landmark Legal<\/a> ruling, the disgraced hollywood Film Producer<\/a> Harvey Weinstein<\/a> has had his 2020 new york rape conviction overturned because of a mistake made by the trial judge. Yes, the court found he did not receive a fair trial after the judge called witnesses whose accusations were not part of the case against him. Weinstein was found guilty of raping and sexually assaulting two women, but is now entitled to a retrial. Earlier, we spoke to Showbiz Reporter<\/a> stephanie takyi. Its a big blow to victims of Sexual Assault<\/a> and also the victims who bravely stood and took part in the court cases. You know, for many of these women coming forward and telling their stories of, you know, allegedly being assaulted by Harvey Weinstein<\/a> was not an easy task for them. So even women, including ashley judd judd, an actress , shes come out now and actress, shes come out now and she said this is an act of Institutional Betrayal<\/a>, because what it was when Harvey Weinstein<\/a> was sentenced in 2020, many people saw that as actually a victory for the Metoo Movement<\/a>. You know, finally , movement. You know, finally, hes been locked away. Hes not going to be a free man. So hes still already in prison, serving another sentence for 16 years. But the fact that now this has been overturned, actually, its said to a lot of women actually , said to a lot of women actually, your stories dont matter even if youre going to court to talk about it with Harvey Weinstein<\/a> and his defence, his team are quite happy with this verdict because it means actually, he can actually now go on trial and have his say because during the trial, he didnt really get a chance to say his side of the story. So now if there is going to be a retrial, he will get to say how what happened in these kind of situations that hes been accused of. I mean, but for a retrial, if we see one in new york. Yeah. For the victims , thats going to for the victims, thats going to be very difficult, isnt it . Having to rehash everything that they say theyve been through. It is. And i think a lot of them have lost faith in the system because, you know, youve convicted this for man 23 years. Many people were celebrating because they thought this is the situation over. Hes been locked away, but now youve got the highest court in new york coming out saying, actually, weve made an error in such a very delicate case like that. I think a lot of victims have now lost support and hope in the system. But, you know, from whats come out, the statements that have come out from the courts, they say, do you still want to honour victims . But the law is the law. Even someone like Harvey Weinstein<\/a>. The public already have made their opinion about him, but he is entitled to a fair trial. But this is the problem. If you said this isnt a fair trial and as you say, the public have got their view on it all, how does he then get its going to be going to be a retrial. How is that going to be fair . Well, this is why theyve kind of kind of shot themselves in the foot here because it was very a tight verdict. It was 4 to 3. In order to have this court ruling to be brought back to trial. But the problem is now people know Harvey Weinstein<\/a>s story. And i think a lot of juries, even if you got them from all over the world, theyve already made up their mind. So for someone like Harvey Weinstein<\/a>, its going to be very hard to give him a fair trial. The only victory, i think, for Harvey Weinstein<\/a> here is that hes going to manage to say his side of the story, but it means as well, less victims. If there is a retrial, there will be less victims who will be able to come forward because none of their stories have been stood up in a court of evidence, in evidence. So its going to be quite hard. So its going to be quite hard. Okay. Well, at 8 12, lets take a look at some other stories coming into the newsroom. Well, the worlds first personalised mrna jab for melanoma is being used in the uk. A british teacher was the first person to get the jab. Its being described as a groundbreaking clinical trial. I had any fear because, i just by doing the trial , i feel just by doing the trial, i feel like im actively doing something to give it a kicking. Basically a 13 Year Old Girl<\/a> has been charged with three counts of attempted murder after two teachers and a pupil were stabbed at a man Valley School<\/a> in wales on wednesday. The teachers and pupil have now been released from hospital after being treated for stab wounds. Wounds. Vice chancellors from 24 leading universities have been warned by m15 that foreign states are targeting british institutions to undermine National Security<\/a> , while the National Security<\/a>, while the government and Security Services<\/a> are worried that Cutting Edge Research<\/a> could be targeted by foreign states. Should we take a look at the weather . Yeah, mentioned that with annie. Annie. A brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on. Gb news. Hello. Good morning. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day, and theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds are going to bubble up though, as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. 1 think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry now towards the south we start to see cloud thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales, into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight, and temperatures will be well below average for the time of yean below average for the time of year. So another fairly cool day today. Cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening, so it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though, cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air, so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best of the sunshine is likely to be in the morning, i think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry. Across the midlands, though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed and in the south any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers.

In 2024. Gb news is britains election. Channel. 821 good morning to you. Just want to address this poll because now people are really commenting on gbnews. Com yoursay saying they dont believe the poll. And wheres the poll from and whos done the poll. And was it so its been asked. Let me just explain. It was conducted by jl partners. So an independent company and it was 518, recent and current gb news viewers. So thats who was viewers. So thats who was asked. Now how they select these people , whos whos contacted people, whos whos contacted that i dont know how the minutia of all that works, but whenever theres polls, whatever poll you read , people are poll you read, people are contacted. And so, you know, were doing this poll. Would you were doing this poll. Would you like to contribute . Now, whats interesting about this one, and why its quite damning, is that , why its quite damning, is that, you would imagine and it would be presumed that a majority of gb news viewers and listeners may , may prefer. Lets bring the may, may prefer. Lets bring the graphic up, may prefer the conservative party, so although its a smaller gap than youre seeing in other polls, like the yougov poll yesterday has got a 25 gap between the two. Its still in the 11 gap amongst current or or recent gb news viewers. So thats whos viewers. So thats whos conducting the poll, so there you go. For all of those who are messaging about it, and well just run you through some of these findings. Gb news viewers trust labour more with apparently with the cost of living, nhs and housing seven and ten think that the government is not tough enough when it comes to dealing with crime. Two thirds of gb news viewers think the government should spend more on the nhs, and three quarters of gb news viewers think that immigration is too high. 18 say its about right. All right, there you go. Right. All right, there you go. Lets move on to the prince of wales. Should we . Because we of wales. Should we . Because we need something to smile about. And actually, what a lovely thing it must have been if youre at this particular school. That was shocked yesterday when he made a surprise visit. Turned up out of surprise visit. Turned up out of the blue in the West Midlands<\/a>. Yeah. What a lovely surprise this was after 12 year old Freddie Hadley<\/a> from sandwell wrote a letter to Prince William<\/a> inviting him to see his Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. Our royal correspondent Cameron Walker<\/a> was there. Walker was there. Its not every day youre pulled out of class to meet a prince, but for Saint Michaels<\/a> High School Students<\/a> yesterday, thats exactly what happened. Thats exactly what happened. When did you find out he was coming to your school . Like ten minutes ago. Yeah like ten minutes ago. Yeah a bit of a shock. A bit of a shock. Yes. We just cant believe that someone so important has turned up to the West Midlands<\/a> to see, you know, 1200 children. They would never get this opportunity again. And were just a little bit shell shocked that somebody so famous has turned up today. Prince williams visits to the West Midlands<\/a> were sparked last october, when 12 year old freddie hadele invited him to come and learn about the Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. Mental health campaign. Freddies letter was posted on x and to his surprise , william and to his surprise, william personally tweeted back on world Mental Health<\/a> day. He apologised for not being able to visit but asked pupils to keep up their important work. Asked pupils to keep up their important work. Fast forward to important work. Fast forward to yesterday and freddie got his wish. Wish. I sent him walking down. I was like i couldnt, i could not wrap my head around this. It was like a good thing i didnt get told because obviously it wouldnt be such as a big surprise. But when i seen him, i was like, gosh, this is like, like a once in a lifetime chance for sure. For sure. Two pairs of the pair sat down for the all male matrix project, which runs the am i manly enough campaign, tackling the stigma around male Mental Health<\/a>. William said he realised his passions to solve homelessness and addiction were both connected to Mental Health<\/a> problems, which is why hes committed to solving that too. He said boys and men need to talk more about their feelings. The suicide rate in young men is just terrifying and i wanted to do something about it. The group broadcasts a local radio show with fun segments, which william was too all happy to take part in. Ive been asked to produce a dad joke , so im kind of trying dad joke, so im kind of trying to channel Jack Whitehall<\/a> because most of his jokes are pretty dad like, knock knock , pretty dad like, knock knock, interrupting cow moo. I mean, interrupting cow moo. I mean, i hear a lot of homers in a bizarre turn of events, comedian Jack Whitehall<\/a> was happy with his royal badge of honour tweeting rinsed by the future king, the prince of wales spent time shaking hands with as many pupils as possible. Before he left. He was impressed by Saint Michaels<\/a> whole School Approach<\/a> to Mental Health<\/a>. Its understood these pupils are more inclined to open up about their feelings , up about their feelings, successfully breaking down stigmas and paving the way for happier and healthier futures. Happier and healthier futures. Cameron walker gb news. All right, so lovely seeing all their faces. Isnt it so pleased to see. Isnt it so pleased to see. Im so excited. Well you would be be. Oh there you go. Oh there you go. Is it funny. And i sort of dont know why. Well hes royalty isnt he. Well hes royalty isnt he. Well hes royalty isnt he. Well yeah. Well yeah. But i dont know what it is about him. But id be thrilled to meet him or catherine. Well, hes just so lovely, isnt he . He comes across so lovely, as does catherine. So wed be delighted. And they certainly were as well. And what star freddie is . Hes very good. Hes very good. Hes very good. Hes also very good. Hes also very good. Stand out. Stand out. Held his own. Id be a id be a good be a id be a wreck as well. But no, he was very, very sweet and good on him. He got a result there didnt he. Got the prince to the school. Ill tell you what. Ill tell you what. Thats something for life, isnt it . I mean, look at the vie and all the rest of it. You know, in all the papers theres a picture of him with the future king, you know, which hell have for life now, when hes when hes a right old fella, hell be there with that picture. Its great. Fantastic. Lovely. Fantastic. Lovely. So thank you to Cameron Walker<\/a> for bringing us that story. But do stay with us because paul coyte will be back news. Welcome back to breakfast. Its sports time and paul coyte is here with us. What do you want to talk about . First bright nil. First bright nil. Manchester city 18. Manchester city 18. No, close. No, close. Close. Yeah, yeah. See, the close. Yeah, yeah. See, the thing is, once you do the inflexion up, it could be any score. But all you know is that theyve won. Yeah, but it was four nil and they were very good yesterday. And Manchester City<\/a> i mean ive been saying it all along. Theyre doing what they do towards the end of the season. They win and it looks as well does that. Its very tight at the top. It is how many points between them and arsenal. Its one. But theyve got a game in hand to arsenal. The top. Theyve got 77 points. Ive played 34. Manchester city have played 34. Manchester city have played 33 and are on 76. So man city are away at forest at the weekend, arsenal away at tottenham hotspur. So obviously tottenham hotspur. So obviously they wont get any points there will they ask. No, they might not. But Manchester City<\/a> against forest, you would think so. Forest, you would think so. You would think so liverpool though i mean theyre not out out of it. I mean everybodys saying oh liverpool theyre done for but theyre on 74 points. So and theyve played 34. So they could put a little run together. Its very tight. Its very exciting. So thats how things are looking at the moment. But man city back certainly on form and doing what they do at the moment. Arnie. Arnie, what have we decided on . Ellie . Arnie arnie is what the consensus answer slot slot seems to be. Most definitely the next manager of liverpool. Once jurgen klopp goes, klopp for slot, this is what he said. Hes the current manager of feyenoord. It seems clear to me that i would like to work there. I dont know whether thats lost in translation there from dutch to english, but it doesnt sound like it sounds like gobbledegook or double dutch, some would say. But, all i can say is that the clubs are in negotiations and im in the waiting room. That makes a little more sense. So it seems that somethings going on and theyre probably working out what this package is going to be as far as pay towards feyenoord , as far as pay towards feyenoord, should he move over. So thats where we are at the moment. Okay, so it looks like thats going to i was just as you say that. I just thought id googled some slots jokes. Right. Yeah, yeah. Just so weve got machine when i said hes a machine. Yeah yeah yeah. Yeah yeah yeah. But unfortunately theres not a list of slot jokes. Yeah. Theyre not really appropriate slotting in. Im not. Okay. All right. Fine. Probably better. So should things go bad for him then maybe you can start throwing those in there. Yeah. Yeah. If it starts going bad. Right. Man united should tell you about whats going on there. Yeah. Whats going on with us . Arent they . Well, this is interesting. I mean, its a lot of companies, arent they . Cut cost cutting left, right and centre, this is what theyve done for Manchester United<\/a>, which i think is a lovely thing that theyve always donein lovely thing that theyve always done in the past for their staff. Its about 1100 staff. So when they go to the cup final, which they did last year, they get two tickets. So this lovely thing, two, two tickets for the cup final travel to and from wembley. So return travel there. It sounds like im doing a quiz show. Pre match lunch after party hotel in london. Ineos have come in and gone. Cant be doing any of that. Oh, so they will offer them one ticket but itll cost you \u00a320 on the coach to go and thats it. So cost cutting. So staff, whether theyre very happy about that i doubt. But its a nice thing that they do. Yeah i think so. Yeah. But you know what. Its always the first thing to go the parties. If you think of what a player this is the thing that would always come up. What player would earn compared to what that would earn compared to what that would cost. Theres a lot though wouldnt it . 1100. So its probably about half an hours wages for many players. Well, ill be it could well be now loot littler. Oh yes. Now whats all this about him getting booed . Was it was it good natured or not . Yeah, i think so. You know what its like with anybody in this country. If they. If they do, well, Everybody Loves<\/a> them. And then theres a point where it all turns. Where he was in liverpool, he was playing in the premier league of darts yesterday. Did very well. But playing in liverpool hes a Manchester United<\/a> fan. So he got booed and as he was walking through i mean hes only 17 but i mean they still booing him. He was giving it all that i think weve learnt. There we are. Hes reacting. Hes doing all this to nil because everton beat liverpool two nil. But i dont know whether hes thinking that. Well actually half of half of this everton is in liverpool as well. So maybe the everton fans softened to him. But the reds fans did not. So thats what he was doing. So he was giving it the big one. But he was very good yesterday. I dont blame him for having for a fighting back. Exactly. If theyre giving him stick then give it back a little bit. So two nil. Its not really endeared himself to liverpool fans, but probably has to the everton fans. Finally, a little golf, from louisiana, from new orleans, the louisiana course, the tpc louisiana. Now course, the tpc louisiana. Now theres louisiana, theres animals. Well, i say animals on the course. Oh, theyve got to the course. Oh, theyve got to be very careful. Any idea what they could be . Alligators. Alligators. Alligators. Alligators. Have a look at this. Look at this. So going up to play get about to play your tee shot. Oh, look at this fella. Oh, look at this fella. Look at this fella. How would you feel . Id run a mile yes i would hes only one of the smaller ones. There was a legendary gator with three legs. Do you know, do you know what his nickname was . Youre gonna be quicker. Its gonna be tricky. No good. I dont know, tripod. I dont know, tripod. They used to call him. They used to call him. Thats right. Thats right. Tripod is still around, but thats a little. Well thats a oh, hes taking his time. Hes quite relaxed. Hes quite relaxed. So theyre thinking dont. So hes just going to practice. Everybody seems very calm. Do especially the gator i mean what would you do if you were playing golf and an alligator start coming. Because one of those things the walking very slowly like that. But if they want to move, they can move, cant they . Isnt that where you have to do the diagonal run . Oh, i dont know. Oh, i dont know. Or is that im not really sure the gun id find myself in a situation like that thinking im being chased by a lion or alligator is which one is it . I do the diagonal run for which one is it . I keep still with . I really dont know. But anyway, this golf buggy. Yeah. Thats it. Thats the answer. Golf buggy with doors and just in completely. Anyway, speeding the life out of me. Thats what happens. Thats the Zurich Classic<\/a> which is going on in louisiana at the moment. Right. And interestingly, in switzerland, they have the louisiana classic. Work that one out. Oh darn. Oh darn. Is that in switzerland, though . Is it the Zurich Classic<\/a> . But its in louisiana. Yeah, yeah, i think its a sponsor. I dont think its a sponsor. I dont think its a sponsor. I dont think its actually, you know, its zurich. Im very confused. Im very confused. You know what . You were confused the moment i mentioned tripod. So lets leave it i know, i know, thank you. Paul coyte. Paul coyte. Thank you. Thank you. Have a lovely weekend. Have a lovely weekend. Took me straight back to that. Do you remember that bbc series for kids called the tripods, based on books . It was back in the 1980s. I dont remember the tripods. I dont remember the tripods. The tripods . Yeah, it was a great three legged. It was a sci fi thing. Right. And it was. It was great. Why were they called the tripods then . Because. Well, because there were big machines, big tripod, auen were big machines, big tripod, alien things. Wow. Wow. I never got a second series. No i think they had three series. Oh. Did they . Oh. Did they . Yeah. There you go. Yeah. There you go. Glimpse into my childhood. Glimpse into my childhood. Its sci fi, so of course you were i loved it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Loved it. I was only about 12, 13 i think. Not a lot has changed. Not a lot has changed. Really. No really. No dont expect it on netflix soon. That one. No, no i dont think now the production values would hold up. Put it that way. Well no, no, do stay with us though because our production values are excellent and theyre excellent. Yes. Nigel nelson and Claire Pearsall<\/a> are going to be back too, to go through all the papers. Thats next. Time to go through the papers, then. 841 with our senior political commentator, mr nigel nelson. And former government adviser , mr claire government adviser, mr Claire Pearsall<\/a>. Good morning to you both. Good morning. You too. Good morning. You too. Nigel. Lets have a look at donald trump. Should we on the telegraph this morning if we must. Yes, certainly, the big wrangling going going on in america over whether or not, trump can, can claim president ial immunity from prosecution. And so this is prosecution. And so this is like, this is over , his like, this is over, his objections to the way the election was lost to him back in 2020. And what it could do, the most important thing is if they keep arguing about it, that it could put this case back beyond the november election. So he doesnt have that hanging over him , but the end. Him, but the end. And should he then be elected , he could be prosecuted but then give himself immunity, pardon . Then he can he can pardon himself as president. Yeah. So youve got several cases going on. Youve got the Stormy Daniels<\/a> case going on in, in tandem to this. But the kind of things theyre arguing is, is the points of law are , could a, the points of law are, could a, a, a president if they got immunity, assassinate a political rival or could they stage a coup to take over the country . I mean, its that kind of stuff. But i mean, i suppose the serious bit is that if you establish that a head of state, the american head of state has immunity , it puts them on a par immunity, it puts them on a par with the king, because, of course, our king king cant break his own laws , so its the break his own laws, so its the same kind of idea, but its an interesting , interesting legal interesting, interesting legal wrangle. Although the serious side of it is what, what will happen to trump at the end of it . Do you think its going to be a fairly tight call by the Supreme Court<\/a> or not . I, i think it will be. I think that there are always going to be those detractors. But i suppose if you have to just look at the rule of law, its going to be very, very tncky its going to be very, very tricky to have the president of a country effectively being able to pardon himself or herself from, from offences. And i to pardon himself or herself from, from offences. And 1 they just brings into question the judiciary system in america , the judiciary system in america, the president ial system. But the one thing it is doing is not denting the support donald trump, the more hes in the papers, the more hes in the papers, the more hes in the papers, the more he is out there speaking, the more people seem to love him. And it doesnt matter if even if he ended up in jail, i think that people would still be supportive of their president from behind bars looking after their country. It is just the most bizarre thing. I dont think any of us had this on a bingo card that you would have donald trump, being called into court over hush to money an aduu court over hush to money an adult star, to, you know, the insurrection on january 6th. Its so strange you couldnt write it. And to look at the Decision Making<\/a> process , i dont Decision Making<\/a> process, i dont think theres going to be anybody thats going to call this correctly. I think that it is really going to be down to those those people making the decision. Its going to be a bizarre one. See . What is it . Is it six three in the Supreme Court<\/a> at the moment in favour of 6 to 3 . Yeah. Yeah. In favour of the republican three. Sorry. 4 to 3. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. 4 to 3. Yeah. Yeah. But that even that doesnt guarantee him success. No it doesnt. And also theyve broken down by political lines. And because they are political appointees, that makes the whole court system a bit weird. I mean, you know, we think british politics is odd at the moment. But i think if you look across the, across the atlantic, he is even stranger. Yeah, i think in the history books are going to look at this time as a very odd time, i think, right, lets have a look at, the guardian and Harvey Weinstein<\/a>. Claire. Yeah. Weinstein. Claire. Yeah. I mean, you you can understand why you would want to get, the process correctly looked at, but it does now call into question the whole sort of Metoo Movement<\/a>. This is now being his conviction overturned on a, on a real technicality, that one of the, peoples testimony that were put in were not the original complainants. So and it was also sort of statute bars. So you were outside the statute of limitations on that individual. Limitations on that individual. So youve got this decision, which was a 4 to 3 against in new york, to get this , this new york, to get this, this overturned. And its going to bnng overturned. And its going to bring into question all of the other trials that hes been through. Now hes currently serving 16 years for in california for the offence that he was convicted of there. So he isnt going to come out of prison. But it does bring into question some of the testimony that was also given in that trial, because this same individual has also given the same testimony over there. So there are some real issues. What ihope there are some real issues. What i hope does not happen is it doesnt discourage women from coming forward , because that was coming forward, because that was one of the big things out of the Metoo Movement<\/a> is that women suddenly found that they had a voice and that they would be believed, and i think it would believed, and i think it would be terrible if that was all reversed and women werent being believed. They were put in the background and not listened to. Background and not listened to. And i think we would move backwards in a really bad way. I just think this is really important and were we lose sight of the fact that these victims were abused by man in power. It just seems, extraordinary in a way. This i mean, when you look at it in black and white, it looks like a glaring error. Yeah. So how on earth could that not have been spotted at the time . Well, i mean, it seems its not so much it wasnt spotted. Its the its the appeal process which says he didnt get a fair trial and i mean, i think everything that claire said is absolutely right about about the effect on the Metoo Movement<\/a> and, and, and the women, the women survivors of what happened. And but justice has got to be seen to be done and to be fair. And if that conviction was unsafe, it is right to hold a retrial. It doesnt mean hell get off. I mean, the retrial might find him guilty again. But the but i think that , if there the but i think that, if there are flaws in the way the case was handled , it is quite right was handled, it is quite right that they they run it. Run it again is it possible for Harvey Weinstein<\/a> to have a fair trial, though in terms. Well, thats the thing now isnt it. The retrial. Thats the argument over anybody whos actually in the public eye. Yeah. Can he get a fair trial . And of course hes actually imprisoned in california, over, over a completely different rape. So theres hes got previous in that sense, but i think you always encounter that difficulty with, with famous people, especially if you know about their background. I mean, about their background. I mean, ideally, jurors shouldnt know anything about the background of the people that theyre judging, but it is going to be very, very difficult because this was all over the media for such a long time. It was four years ago that the court case came up. So everybody has looked into this. So i dont think you can have a fair trial. But thats not to be said that he shouldnt still go in front of a jury of his peers. Thats thats the way the judicial system works. And we have to stick with it. Yeah should we talk about a cunning plan to save the world. Yeah. We, we do love a bit of baldrick dont we. And this is, about turnips and its the of course it is baldrick. Actor, course it is baldrick. Actor, Tony Robinson<\/a> says that to combat climate change, the one thing that we would be able to eat are turnips. Eat are turnips. Because i like a turnip as well. Okay. Okay. Okay. You would want meat on every day, would you . Probably not. Probably not. Its a food that you have occasionally its fine. I dont think we could sustain ourselves, but apparently it is the it is a very adaptable, Climate Friendly<\/a> food source. And in fact, therese coffey, when she was defra secretary, told everybody when there was a food shortage, turnips must eat turnips. But bear in mind, if the if the end of the world comes, the only thing that will actually survive is cockroaches. So weve got to hope that cockroaches like the turnips, i mean, not selling this very well. Are we not a mashed turnips . Obviously. Neeps are a very tasty. Its not something that id have every week. Id have every week. You can roast them. You can roast them. Very nice roasted slice and roast. Okay, well, maybe. Maybe thats it. I need to investigate some turnip recipes. So this is what push comes to shove. No, no, please dont. No, no, please dont. No, no, please dont. Yeah. Yeah. No, i wouldnt mind about that. Nigel whats this, going through a rough patch in the sun. Well, theres a million potholes in this country, so understandable. People would understandable. People would have protest about them. And whats happened in one street in chelmsford in essex is that the street was called patching hall lane. And i know patching hall lane. Do you, do you do you know what its now called . Pothole lane. Youre almost there. Patch the holes now. Oh very good. Yeah. Oh very good. Yeah. So theyve got loads and loads of potholes there. And someone said right can you, can we do something about them and is the thing thats the absolute scourge of, communities everywhere that would in local government always says there are the three ps which are, planning, parking and potholes. Those are the things they must fix. So the problem with patching hall lane is its got two really big schools on it and a big hospital at the bottom. So theyll be very concerned about people being hurt, i imagine. Yeah, going across one of those on an ambulance would be much fun would it. Oh wouldnt would it. Oh wouldnt would it. Or a bike on the way to school. You can see the cycle lane there. Yeah. Its got to be done. Ill tell you what. Youve youve been a local councillor. I have, havent you. Is this what the problem seems to be . Well, its funding, but that means councils are patching rather than properly filling. Yes. Yeah. It never works. It never works because the surface just breaks up again the minute you have traffic going back over it, or its a bit wet or a bit cold, then it breaks up. But the problem is when you need to fix potholes properly by ripping up the road surface and starting again, which of course you need temporary traffic lights, road closures. That also irritates people. Youre never going to win, but people have patience with that, though, wouldnt they . To an extent, potholes to an extent. If they fixed it and they fixed it properly. There was a local road near us which had to be shut, was beautiful early retirement and it was stunning to drive on. It was brilliant. It really was it was brilliant. It really was lovely. It had been bone crunching for years and years and years and it was beautiful. And then of course, the inevitable happened. There was a utility problem and it had to be dug up again. And now the surface is broken and you can just see the potholes going to reform. And we are particularly bad at looking after our roads. But its that in terms of responsibility, would that not fall under the utility company. Yes it does, but they will have put it back to a certain standard and which is not maybe as great. You can councils can then force the Utilities Companies<\/a> back to resurface it properly. But if they have done it to the specifications given at the time under the licence of digging it up. So we need to then you can do it. We need to up the specs on it all. Thats always so annoying the minute you get a nicely laid road. Then suddenly we have to dig up a pipe and then youve got a permanent track down it and it never matches up properly i so youve got this little rut on one side, but it is one of the biggest issues. But as soon as you stick some temporary traffic lights up, you watch your local social media, just go into meltdown. Really . Yeah, absolutely. Really . Yeah, absolutely. And weve had it recently and its just every other post on the local Facebook Page<\/a> is about the local Facebook Page<\/a> is about the traffic lights. You cant win. You cant win. You cant win. You cant win. You cant, you cant. But we need to we need to fix potholes. We just need to do it quickly. And thats the one thing we dont do. Yeah, no. Dont do. Yeah, no. Its true. Can we talk about sambas, please . Sambas, please . Yes. Now its always trainers sorry. Trainers, adidas trainers, adidas trainers. And this is always bad when youve got a politician wearing something fashionable. And in that case it was rishi sunak sporting a pair of sambas. That case it was rishi sunak sporting a pair of sambas. And sporting a pair of sambas. And now weve got nigel farage of this parish wearing a pair of gazelles. So adidas gazelle trainers in a photograph and oh, the brands dont like this. And everybody then go and point it out that a politician is wearing a particular brand of shoe or a jacket or indeed music. Oh yeah. And you always get it. I mean, it. I mean, its it. I mean, its like your dad liking something the minute your dad likes something, the answer to it is no. But you famous music ones are, you know, sort of David Cameron<\/a> professing to like the smiths in 2006, gordon brown liking the arctic monkeys. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. But that was made up, wasnt it . It . They do make it up. And thats the trouble. They make up football teams and things like that because. And then if someone questions them, they never get it right. And certainly on the fashion front, i mean, i think that William Hague<\/a> ruined the baseball cap by turning it back to front. And i suppose michael foot at the cenotaph ruined the donkey jacket. Yeah, because no one would go out and go out in pubuc would go out and go out in public with one of those again, this is politicians just need to just dress normally. Just pair normal shoes, shoes. Just work shoes. He doesnt really need. I mean, rishi sunak, youre running the country, you dont need to sit there in a pair of adidas. I dont know, its like, you see, i wear im wearing trainers as we speak. Well, maybe. Maybe you should be running the country. You ought to show us. You ought to show us. Itsjust you ought to show us. Its just much more comfortable. Unless your shoes are in shot. But if youre the Prime Minister<\/a> and the shoes were in shot. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe you shouldnt be wearing a trainers. No, its got to be sort of, you know, cool dad vibe about it, which is just everybody laughs at, unfortunately. And of course the brand takes a hit. True, you to have taken a hit because were losing you very much indeed. Thank you. Thank you. You too. Well take a look at the weather now with annie. A brighter outlook with boxt solar, the sponsors of weather on gb news. Hello. Good morning. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day, and theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds going to bubble up though, as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. 1 think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry. North should stay fairly dry. Now towards the south we start to see cloud thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales, into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight and temperatures will be well below average for the time of yean below average for the time of year. So another fairly cool day today. Cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening, so it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air, so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best of the sunshine is likely to be in the morning, i think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry. Across the midlands, though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed and in the south any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers. That warm feeling inside from boxt away. Away. Good morning to you. Its 9 00 on friday. The 26th of april. Today, tensions are high in scotland as humza yousaf faces a vote of no confidence after ripping up his Coalition Agreement<\/a> with the greens. Agreement with the greens. Indeed. Well, this is an extraordinary period of scottish politics. Humza yousaf due to speak in glasgow later today. Will he come out fighting on well, as his detractors say, it will only be a matter of when not if, he goes. Not if, he goes. A poll of gb news viewers has revealed that labour are 11 points ahead of the conservatives. Is this another worrying sign for the Prime Minister<\/a> a depressing poll result yet again for rishi sunak, but with again for rishi sunak, but with a glimmer of hope, the conservatives are more trusted on immigration. Can rishi sunak make that work to his advantage . Make that work to his advantage . Also today, the disgraced mogul caught by the Metoo Movement<\/a>, Harvey Weinstein<\/a>, has his 2020 conviction overturned. His 2020 conviction overturned. A revolutionary new jab is bringing hope of a possible cure to skin cancer as it begins trials in the uk. And Prince William<\/a> surprises students in the West Midlands<\/a> dunng students in the West Midlands<\/a> during a school trip to support Mental Health<\/a>. And he did a bit of a stand up routine when he was there, knock knock sir. Interrupting cow moo. Interrupting cow moo. Morning. Its a cloudy start today , but will there be any today, but will there be any more sunshine over the weekend . Well, you can find out all the details with me a little later on. Morning to you. Morning to you. Morning to you. Im Stephen Dixon<\/a>, and im ellie costello, and this is breakfast on gb news. Mike sheldon says, stephen, tell ellie i remember the tripods kids tv show based on hg wells war of the worlds. Never watched it properly, but did see it. But as i was older, i turned over the channels. The channels. Yeah, well, it was based. It was based on a on a on a the tripod trilogy, which is a separate book. So i dont say it separate book. So i dont say it wasnt the war of the worlds saying they had tripod machines as well in war of the worlds, but it was, Claire Pearsall<\/a> remembered it. Well, youve got them all going here. Oh, steve, have the tripods was ace for the time. Well worth digging up a copy. Yeah, might be worth doing that, actually , peter says that, actually, peter says stephen trainers with a suit you need to sack your style advisers. Nothing looks worse. Nothing looks worse. Nothing looks worse. Oh, i dont know, because then nigel says, which is what i always think of. Didnt David Tennant<\/a> make them cool in doctor who . He did. He always wore. He wore, converse. Converse. Yeah, wore, converse. Converse. Yeah, okay, now i understand. Yes. Okay, now i understand. Yes. Because if David Tennant<\/a> does it, then you do it. Thats the thing, jennifer says trainers are extremely comfortable, especially if you suffer with foot problems. When thornbury came on, i wont read that. Oh. But no , i wouldnt be wearing but no, i wouldnt be wearing trainers if i were Prime Minister<\/a>. I dont think. I dont think. No. Well, probably not if youre a Prime Minister<\/a>. To be fair. But then rishi sunak wasnt. But then rishi sunak wasnt. But then rishi sunak wasnt. But theres a lot to be said for wearing trainers with a suit if youve got. I mean, its like ive got a walker. Yeah, but no one sees you. One sees you. One sees you. And i think that ones comfort, but its all different if youre out and about and you are on double trainers. I just wear comfortable trainers. Yes, you do, thanks. Well, they they do look very comfortable. They do. Ill tell comfortable. They do. Ill tell you that. Im wearing a brand that i really like, and i now buy all my trainers from and, but if anyones remotely trendy, they laugh at me. But there you go, laugh at me. But there you go, so. Yes. Thank you so much for your views, gbnews. Com yoursay do keep them coming in. Lets head to scotland now. Should we . Where tensions are simmering. Boiling, i should say, after the greens revealed that they plan to vote against the first minister, humza yousaf, in a vote of no confidence. Yes. The decision follows the collapse of the snps power sharing deal with the greens yesterday , leaving mr yousaf in yesterday, leaving mr yousaf in charge of a minority government. Charge of a minority government. Well, the no confidence motion proposed by the scottish conservative leader, douglas ross, who branded the snp leader weak and a failed first minister. Well, joining us now from glasgow is gb news scotland reporter tony maguire. To good see you this morning tony. This is an extraordinary time in scottish politics isnt it. And we are expecting to hear from the first minister a little bit later on today. Later on today. Yes thats correct. Early certainly. This is you know, i guess , the latest in a long line guess, the latest in a long line of challenges facing humza yousaf. He of challenges facing humza yousaf. He hasnt of challenges facing humza yousaf. He hasnt exactly had yousaf. He hasnt exactly had the easiest 13 months since taking over from his predecessor, Nicola Sturgeon<\/a>. Predecessor, Nicola Sturgeon<\/a>. But certainly this is undoubtedly the biggest challenge that hes had to face. Now yesterday morning we obviously ended that power sharing agreement, that confidence and supply agreement with the green party here in scotland. And then just shortly scotland. And then just shortly after first ministers question as regular every thursday at holyrood , douglas ross came out holyrood, douglas ross came out with his vote of no confidence intentions. And then as the afternoon progressed , we slowly afternoon progressed, we slowly heard from the other leaders and weve got a bit from them to share with you. Now we can confirm today that on behalf of the scottish conservatives, 1 am lodging a vote of no confidence in humza yousaf. In humza yousaf. He is a failed first minister. He is unfit for office. Shouldnt this be the end of the road for this week . End of the road for this week . First minister, the snp have lost their way. Their weak, divided, incompetent and putting party before country. Isnt it time to end the circus and call an election . There are no circumstances under which the scottish liberal democrats would express confidence in either the first minister, humza yousaf, or his failing government. We no longer have confidence in a progressive government in scotland doing the right thing for climate and nature, so the scottish green msps will not be supporting humza yousaf in a vote of no confidence. So the question on everyones lips is what happens next . Well humza yousaf, hes here in glasgow at Strathclyde University<\/a> today. Hes glasgow at Strathclyde University<\/a> today. Hes going to be giving a speech on the Labour Market<\/a> and an independent scotland. Yet another one of the independence papers and indeed the snps westminster leader, stephen flynn. He believes that stephen flynn. He believes that humza yousaf will come out fighting in fact, only in the last hour hes come out and said that he doesnt know if he would even stand again if humza yousaf is not going to be the leader of the party. And of course, that all important vote of no confidence likely to happen next week does all the power end up in the hands of ash regan, the msp , who is essentially msp, who is essentially ostracised for taking her stance against the gender recognition reform bill. Indeed, i think were only maybe part of the way through this saga, but certainly keep it to gb news for the rest of the day and we will keep you up with all the latest developments. Yeah, tony, thanks very much indeed. It will be fascinating to see what the first minister has to say when he holds that News Conference<\/a> a little bit later on. I mean, theres speculation about saying, well, hes going to resign. Hes going to step down. I would doubt it. I could, i could be wrong, but its not like a politician to do that. Just like that is it. No i think hell, i think hell fight it. But quite how long will he cling on. Well stay across gb news all day, as tony says. And well keep you across. Any developments with that story . Now, a new gb news poll has revealed good news for the labour party. According to labour party. According to viewers, they are 11 points ahead of the conservative gives, while gb news viewers and listeners also trust labour more with the cost of living, the nhs and housing. Well, joining us now is gb news Political Correspondent<\/a> olivia utley. And correspondent olivia utley. And based on the results of this poll, its a bit of a headache for the Prime Minister<\/a> it is another massive headache for the Prime Minister<\/a>. Labour leading by 11 points among gb news viewers who the Prime Minister<\/a> at least might expect to be more sympathetic to the conservative cause on issues like defence, where the conservatives normally are far ahead, crime as well tackling crime. The labour party is now storming ahead. Another example of keir starmer stealing the conservatives clothes, taking that Centre Ground<\/a>, the only sort of shred of for hope the Prime Minister<\/a> is that the conservative party is still more trusted in this poll on tackling illegal migration, and that is an issue which is almost more important than anything to brit. It normally comes either first or second on the list of concerns facing the uk. Now. The Prime Minister<\/a> managed finally to get his rwanda bill over the line this week. Its now line this week. Its now received royal assent and we can expect to see flights taking off to rwanda in the next 6 to 10 weeks, barring any last minute legal challenges. What rishi legal challenges. What rishi sunakis legal challenges. What rishi sunak is really, really hoping is that when that happens, he will start to see a boost in the polls. All of those people who care more about immigration than anything else will think. Hang on a minute. Maybe the conservatives are the only ones i can trust. That is what rishi sunakis i can trust. That is what rishi sunak is banking on right now. All his eggs are pretty much in the rwanda basket. Will it pay off . Well, well have a much clearer idea after the general election, after the local elections next week. Yes indeed. Olivia, thanks very much indeed. Its going to be fascinating to see the local elections. Well have the first results coming through this time next week. Yeah. Though there its not like theres a general election, is it . Therell be a bit more of a of a drip effect. So well be getting them all through the weekend. So well keep you up to date wont we. Yes we will ask next weekend. This time next week. This time next week. Now the prince of wales shocked 1200 pupils yesterday , shocked 1200 pupils yesterday, making a surprise visit to a high school in the West Midlands<\/a>. Well, this was after 12 year old Freddie Hadley<\/a>, from sandwell, wrote a letter to Prince William<\/a> inviting him to see his Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. Our royal correspondent Cameron Walker<\/a> was there. Cameron walker was there. Its not every day youre pulled out of class to meet a prince, but for Saint Michaels<\/a> High School Students<\/a> yesterday, thats exactly what happened. Thats exactly what happened. When did you find out he was coming to your school . Like ten minutes ago. Yeah like ten minutes ago. Yeah bit of a shock. Bit of a shock. Yes. We just cant believe that someone so important has turned up to the West Midlands<\/a> to see, you know, 1200 children. They would never get this opportunity again. And we just a opportunity again. And we just a little bit shell shocked that somebody so famous has turned up today. Prince williams visits to the West Midlands<\/a> were sparked last october when 12 year old Freddie Hadley<\/a> invited him to come and learn about the Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. Schools Mental Health<\/a> campaign. In freddies letter was posted on x and to his surprise , on x and to his surprise, william personally tweeted back on world Mental Health<\/a> day. He apologised for not being able to visit , but asked pupils to keep visit, but asked pupils to keep up their important work. Visit, but asked pupils to keep up their important work. Fast up their important work. Fast forward to yesterday and freddie got his wish, sent him walking down. I was like, i can, i can not wrap my head around this. It was like a good thing i didnt get told because obviously it wouldnt be such as a big surprise. But when i seen him, i was like, gosh, this is like, like a once in a lifetime chance for sure. Two pairs of the pair sat down for the all male matrix project, which runs the am i manly enough campaign, tackling the stigma around male Mental Health<\/a>, williams said he realised his passions to solve homelessness and addiction were both connected to Mental Health<\/a> problems , which is why hes problems, which is why hes committed to solving that too. Committed to solving that too. He said boys and men need to talk more about their feelings. The suicide rate in young men is just terrifying and i wanted to do something about it. The group broadcasts a local radio show with fun segments , radio show with fun segments, which william was all too happy to take part in. Ive been asked to take part in. Ive been asked to produce a dad joke, so im kind of trying to channel Jack Whitehall<\/a> because most of his jokes are pretty dad like knock knock, interrupting cow moo. I knock, interrupting cow moo. I mean, i hear a lot of homophobic i ina in a bizarre turn of events, comedian Jack Whitehall<\/a> was happy with his royal badge of honoun happy with his royal badge of honour, tweeting, rinsed by the future king, the prince of wales spent time shaking hands with as many pupils as possible before he left. He was impressed by he left. He was impressed by Saint Michaels<\/a> whole School Approach<\/a> to Mental Health<\/a>. Its understood these pupils are more inclined to open up about their feelings successfully, breaking down stigmas and paving the way for happier and healthier futures. Cameron walker, gb news i wonder how many people said, oh, do give our best to catherine. I bet everyone did. Everybody. But isnt it good to see him in such good spirits . Yeah, it is actually good to see him out and about. Hes got the weight of the world on his shoulders at the minute, so good on him. Good job. Yeah, its good to see him now. Its also good to see him now. Its also good to see these two. Britains newsroom is coming up at 930. Ben leo and pip tomson are here to tell us all about it. Good morning. Morning, you two. Hi. Whats coming up on todays show. So of course were going to be keeping an eye on humza yousaf. The snp, everything thats going on north of the border, the gb news poll as well showing quite staggering, actually showing a boost of support for labour. But some interesting stories elsewhere. Captain tom, his house. Remember the covid legend who did multiple laps of his house to raise 40 million for charity . His daughter is selling the property \u00a32. 25 million, minus the spa pool block that she was forced to rip down because she didnt get consent for it. So yeah , should should she be yeah, should should she be selling the property . I guess its not about that. Its about the suggestion that its, using his name to sell the property because the brochure explicitly states, you know, one of our greatest memories here is when my father was doing laps of the of the garden. Theres photographs of a bust of captain tom in rooms of the house. And i get it. I get how people think it could be a little bit distasteful, but if youre trying to sell a property and thats a selling point, you just would, wouldnt you . I just feel a bit sorry for captain tom because he did this really good, authentic, genuine thing. He raised a lot of money, but then they shipped him off to barbados for a holiday, which he enjoyed. But then he. But then thats where he apparently got covid. Or around that time and then he passed away. Then all then he passed away. Then all the controversy with the knoblach. Nothing thats happened since with his family changes. The fact that what he did, that wonderful, wonderful challenge and raised all that money. No, i agree, but its kind of been muddied a little bit. Yeah it has been. It has been, yeah, elsewhere, pip, the john lewis stories. Yeah. This is interesting about people, being ng being told questions before they go for their job questions before they go for theirjob interviews. So they theirjob interviews. So they get that time to prepare because some of us arent that great at doing face to face interviews and we get a bit overwhelmed. So you might not show yourself at your best. So is it right that that Companies Start<\/a> doing this and they give people full warning of what theyre going to ask them . Is it fair . Ask them . Is it fair . Its funny because my instinctive reaction is that thats not right. But actually thats not right. But actually thinking about it, giving pc, youll have a think about how youll have a think about how you want to respond. You can still get it. You can still get the right information out of people. You can still see what sort of person they are. Even if youve had time to think about it, maybe even more so. Its an interesting one. I mean, its the same old argument about exams and coursework, isnt it . Yeah, i think its cheating if you cant handle the pressure and the surprise, get out of the kitchen. Dont apply for the job. Get out. Depends what sort of job it is. Doesnt it really . Yeah, is. Doesnt it really . Yeah, that sort of thing. Retail, 1 that sort of thing. Retail, i guess. Retail, i guess. Well, the thing is that some jobs, i think retail is more skills based, funnily enough, isnt it. But there are some situations where you have to think on your feet and youre not going to be tested on that, are you . Yeah. Youve had loads of prep time with retail. Its intuition isnt it. And being helpful. Yeah, i think being able to talk to people goes a long way. People, someone in the eye picking up a phone, knocking on a door. Ive said loads of times the amount of people weve had on Work Experience<\/a> at my Old Newspaper<\/a> who have qualifications come out of their ears, degrees everywhere, but they just cant have a conversation. So hello, how are you doing . You know whats going on . Yeah. You do get a lot of that. Yeah. Youre not. Youre not wrong. Ben and pip. Good to see you. Well see you at 930.

Thats. Next. Now, this is a less considerably less than 100 days to go until the paris olympics. And its going to be an exciting time. I was in paris not long ago, and talked about the work theyre doing. The prep theyre doing there is found nominal. I mean, it is going to be absolutely spectacular. The olympics always spectacular. The olympics always is. Oh, it always is. Theres lots to look forward to, isnt there . Yeah. A lot of prep is underway for not only the city of paris but for those. Yeah. I was just going to say, if youre watching you saw the mascot. Now, the mascot is the worst thing ive ever seen. It looks like a gummy sweet. It looks like a gummy sweet. It looks like a gummy sweet. It is awful. I dont i dont know what theyre thinking of with the mascot. I mean, look at it. It does look like a little squidgy sweet. Its like a, oh, a cheese triangle or a cheese triangle. What is it meant to be . Do we know . I have no idea. Okay, not a lot of thought went into that one. But anyway, that is not what team gb and their superstars are going to be thinking about. Not the mascot. They couldnt give two hoots about the mascot, could they . Theyve got other things on their minds. They certainly do. We talked to one of them. Now this is keely hodgkinson. Shes 22 years old and she hails from near manchester. Even went to the same school as england football star ella toone. There you go. Oh fantastic. Great to see you this morning, you wont care about the mascot, weird as it is , all that prep. 1 mean, youre only 22. How do you how do you deal with the pressure of being , deal with the pressure of being, you know, really one to watch for team gb, well, i, i was just laughing about the mascot. I havent actually seen it myself, so that was quite funny, but, i think the pressure is something of the mind. I think the pressure is something of the mind. I think think the pressure is something of the mind. I think the of the mind. I think the olympics for our sport is such a big opportunity. So im really excited. Like you said, its just over a hundred days to go. Its going to come so quickly, and i think its just a really big opportunity to take. So im really looking forward to it. Keely, how do you compartmentalise in your mind . Because youve got really busy summer coming up, havent you . Youve got rome in about 50 days time in june, right . So youre trying to defend your title there and then youve also got there and then youve also got the olympics at the end of july to look ahead to. How do you how do you train for both of those things and keep your your head in it all, well, luckily i have a really great coach that plans everything for me so i can just turn up to training and do my absolute best. But yeah, like i said, i think theres plenty of opportunities there to give us, defending my title, i think is going to be really fun. And my career, id like to get as many medals as possible. I said that before, so i just see it as another opportunity to try and do that. Yeah. I mean, look, it was i mean, the last olympics, 1 think it was a silver you got, wasnt it. You i mean, youve got, youve got to be aiming for gold this time round. I mean to, to have a silver and a gold would be absolutely phenomenal. So yeah, it definitely would be. Especially i didnt expect my career to go like this so early on. So you have spent the last three years trying my absolute best to make these marginal gains, to hopefully walk away with what will be an olympic dream of minor gold. Yeah. And whats the Training Like<\/a> at the moment, keely . Is it really ramping up or do you actually start to rest a little bit more before you enter this . These big competitions runs, the best way i could explain it is the sessions get a little bit more intense, a little bit faster , but we do knock down how faster, but we do knock down how much weve earned just because of how intense we are running. So just come back from a Training Camp<\/a> in south africa for the last month. And thats been really, really hard. So im looking forward to getting some racing going now, especially i miss the indoor season. So its, im raring to go for this outdoor season. Yeah, yeah. Outdoor season. Yeah, yeah. So it sounds like youve got your head in the right, the right place then, which i guess is a really important part of this. This. Yeah. I think calm and composure is my best friend at some point. So, yeah, i think thats the best way to go with this, this olympic year. And, hopefully, hopefully we can do a good job. Well, calm and composed you are. And youre going to do a fantastic job. We are sure we are all behind you, keely hodgkinson, really good to see you this morning. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you for having me. Thank you for having me. Oh shes a superstar. Shes superstar. Athertons a lovely place as well. Anyway right. Thats it from us. Well see you tomorrow morning, 6 00. A brighter outlook with boxt solar , sponsors of weather on. Solar, sponsors of weather on. Gb news. Hello. Good morning. Welcome to your latest gb news weather update. Its going to be another fairly cloudy and rather cool day. And theres a few showers around for some, but for the time being should stay fairly dry and bright through the rest of the morning, particularly across north and Western Areas<\/a> of the country. Clouds are going to bubble up though, as we head towards lunchtime and the risk of showers starts to develop. 1 think many areas across the north should stay fairly dry. Now towards the south we start to see cloud thicken through this afternoon across many areas of wales, into parts of the midlands and across the south coast. Ahead of this showery band of rain that will push up northwards throughout tonight, and temperatures will be well below average for the time of yean below average for the time of year. So another fairly cool day today. Year. So another fairly cool day today. Cloud will tend to fade today. Cloud will tend to fade away through northern across Northern Areas<\/a> through this evening, so it will be a clear and dry night once again across many areas of northern england, northern ireland, much of scotland and there is a risk of a further frost for saturday morning across the south, though, cloud will continue to thicken as this band of showery rain continues to move northwards. But that will introduce some milder air so its not going to be quite as cold across southern areas of england and wales through this evening. Now it will be a bright but cold start across the north on saturday. The best of sunshine is likely to be in the morning and i think as you head towards the afternoon, cloud will bubble up once again and theres a risk of a few showers. But again, most areas should stay dry. Across the midlands, though, cloud will really thicken. Its going to be quite a dull afternoon and temperatures will be suppressed and in the south any brighter spells that develop could pep off a few showers that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sperm answers of weather on gb news.
