And lets be honest, 75 years young, as you can see from this photo. Well, hes shrugged off his cancer diagnosis to get back to his day job, a job he does so well. This is the morale boost that the country needs. It sends a clear message that, god willing , our message that, god willing, our monarchs health is going in the right direction, that hes got the energy to once again represent the nation and the queen. Camilla probably wants him out of the house. Men are a nightmare when theyre ill. Charles would be within his rights to take the next couple of years off, but this famous workaholic makes ellen i sleek in my factory. Musk look lazy by comparison, and his commitment to Public Service representing the nation in a neutral, apolitical way is a timely reminder that the alternative would be a joyless republic. With an elected president , would be a joyless republic. With an elected president , some tired ex politician or tv star president tony blair, president theresa may or president piers morgan. So we celebrate the morgan. So we celebrate the kings return to royal duties , kings return to royal duties, his improved health and the Robust Health of the institution that he leads. The big man is back. King charles has been doing a brilliant job since day one. Long doing a brilliant job since day one. Long may it continue. Great one. Long may it continue. Great news to start the weekend. Lets get reaction from my friday a team sally morgan, alpesh patel and Mike Hollingsworth. Listen alpesh king charles has had cancer. Its devastating. Had cancer. Its devastating. Hes making what we hope is a recovery. But in a sense, its been the making of him. Ive met that wonderful man many, many times. He is warm. He many, many times. He is warm. He is incredibly hardworking, as you rightly say, and im so pleased hes back to work for one simple reason looking at me , one simple reason looking at me, you will know one thing about me. I want to bring back the british empire. Me. I want to bring back the british empire. No, me. I want to bring back the british empire. No, i me. I want to bring back the british empire. No, i want to british empire. No, i want to bnng british empire. No, i want to bring back the british empire. And you cant do that without a king. So thats why we need the king forget all this president stuff. No, you need him because you cant have an empire without i like you. I know the king. That is the ultimate namedrop, isnt it. 7 i know king charles. Can you do better than that. 7 better than that . Hes got a firm grip. Hes got a firm grip. Is that right . Well, i knew his first wife. That maybe. Is that better than that . No, but im so pleased that . No, but im so pleased that hes back to work. And of course, he wants to get back to work. Because if hes darling wife, who he calls his darling, she has been holding it all up there for him and shes very tired at the moment. So i think that it gives him great pleasure to feel that he can go out there and he can be shaking the hands. Give her a bit of a rest. Yeah, most definitely, of course. You were dianas sidekick. Were you not an adviser . Well, confidant. Adviser . Well, confidant. I was her confidant. Thats. I like that because four and a half years, every single day on the phone, you certainly do get to know someone. And if she were here, she would be rooting for his recovery. She would. She would, because even though they were divorced , even though they were divorced, she loved him very much there. And of course the boys. So she would be there for rooting for the king. Indeed. So. And i think importantly, Mike Hollingsworth , importantly, Mike Hollingsworth, what king charles has achieved is to remove the stigma around cancer. Cancen yes, he has indeed. And thats a good thing. Im not a monarchist, but i, i wish him well, obviously. And as a joint cancer sufferer, i empathise with him and i met him. I havent met him as many times as you have, but youre not his bosom buddy. No, i invite you. No, i invite you. Im not his bosom buddy. But i did go to the palace, not many weeks ago with my ex wife. Anne diamond. And i was amazed. Diamond. And i was amazed. Somebody whod never really been a monarchist herself was absolutely struck by him. And, like a lot of people, almost went weak at the knees when she was talking to him. You can see her there. And if you look very closely, shes she looks like shes gone weak in the knees. Most definitely. Yeah. And , you are in the and, you are in the background there. Did your trip to the palace turn you into a monarchist, no. I like all the. Monarchist, no. I like all the. All the palace stuff , but then all the palace stuff, but then im. When i, for instance , i go im. When i, for instance, i go to france, which hasnt had a monarch for a very long time, but i still like going around the palaces and having a look at all the things that theyve done. Im very fond of that. And actually, i think thats one of the reasons that in this country, if we did away with the monarchy, we would still get the number of visitors we do. You know, we wouldnt have the stability, though. What do the stability, though. What do you think, sally . You think stability . You think stability . Well, im a great monarchist and im a royalist, and i love them. And i think that they bnng them. And i think that they bring so much money into our country , they. And look how country, they. And look how everyone is thrilled that hes back to work. You know, we need a monarchy. We need a monarchy. A monarchy. We need a monarchy. We need it because we need stability at the moment. And they bring that to us. Well, yeah, because you have to worry. Alpesh. If it wasnt king charles, it could be president blair or president lineker. Wed be revolting on the streets at the thought of any of it. Oh, come back, come off it, come off it given his recovery, i think the channel should be called uk news, not gb news. I mean, thats not a bad. Thats not a bad. Come on mike, you dont like youre not happy with the suggestion. Thats what everybody comes up with. President blair or president. You know the wrong names. But when you look at ireland , which has had a very ireland, which has had a very good succession of president s and also if the all you get is the family of the president , you dont get all the hangers on that our royal family does. And you know , as for bringing in you know, as for bringing in a lot of money, i still maintain that money would come into the into the country regardless of whether we had a monarchy. But what about the what about hes really trimmed it down, hasnt he . Hes trimmed it down. Hes trimmed it down too much, i think i think i think they need enough people on the balcony. I am happy to volunteer my services as part of the royal family. There you go. Family. There you go. You got to. Why do we need them all . Why do we need them all . Bring back prince andrew. What . What else . Oh, theres so many duties and there arent enough people to go around. Now, michael, i agree with you. I think people would still come to the uk because its a great destination globally. Anyway london one of the best cities in the world. The palace will still be there all the pomp and ceremony. But what about the soft International Diplomatic power . The fact is that when king charles where is the palace . He stays in the elysee palace, where, when he goes to washington, he stays in the white house. Where has king charles gone . Where has king charles gone . Since hes been. Since he since his coronation. Well, hes not been. Well, hes not been. Well, hes not been. Well, give him a chance. He wasnt well. He wasnt well when he wasnt, he was very shortly. Its almost the year long anniversary of the coronation. And he was empowered before then. And he hasnt gone anywhere australia, new zealand, they havent seen him. And those countries were expecting to keep the monarch as their head of state. Answer my question. The soft diplomatic power of the royal family is second to none. If it was an ex politician that was our president , they wouldnt get the red card. Doesnt have to be an ex politician. Like i say, in the case of ireland it was lawyers, it was barristers. It was people who were internationally. Well known. Well known. Do you really want a dusty lawyer representing the nation . Michael i mean, mike, youre the king of showbiz. Youve launched so many careers. How can king of showbiz. Youve launched so many careers. How can you possibly get behind the idea of some boring old president . Well, if youre a box office, if youre challenging me like that, i could find you quite a number of people. Well , you number of people. Well, you raise a absolutely tantalising question. Alpesh patel and sally, if we had a president , who should it be that . Come on. I dont even want to know. Im going to be at the tower of london before the end of the evening. I answer that question and im going to be marched off by the guards. Charles knows where you live because hes your mate. Yeah, yeah, hes round quite often. So they are. So they are. Oh, my goodness me. Well have to have a little conversation. What do you think . Who would make a good president if we didnt have monarchy. Well, not not farage first of all. No, no, no, he would love to be. No no no not king. No no no no it hasnt no, it hasnt come on nigel. Hes a hes a very i cant think of anyone except him and of course william eventually you know, theyre just theyre perfect. Mike, might you like to see at the end of the monarchy . But will it happen . Id be happy to see a transition which included someone like prince william, a trans monarch. Thats quite interesting. Thats quite interesting. Yeah, thats an idea, mike. Yeah, thats an idea, mike. No, im not suggesting that queen slash king. No, they. No, they. No, they. You know, i think youd like to see. Are you thinking that the charles stays king and then the repubuc charles stays king and then the republic comes in after that , republic comes in after that, whats your whats the. And then. And then maybe william could be william and kate could be the first president. Thats an interesting thought. What about that . What about that . No. Weve had a republic and it didnt turn out that well, did it . Lots of heads on spikes and it would just divide the country even more than it already is divided. Sally, is it too soon for the king to go back to work . Hes king to go back to work . Hes a famous workaholic. Shouldnt he stay home and get well . Well, i think he should, because i dont think he is well at the moment. Yeah, but youre not going to stop him. As i said, i think hes looking at camilla. Hes looking at the queen and hes seeing how tired she is. Hes also seeing how he is needed. Hes needed at the moment. The country need him and moment. The country need him and hes decided that he will go back. But i do think it is too soon. But they wont let him. Soon. But they wont let him. You know, the system will not let him become too tired. Hes still going to be having lots of treatment. And possibly i feel treatment. And possibly i feel sally morgan prediction coming up everybody. And this will happen a little procedure that he might have to go in and have. And i then i think maybe another couple of months and you could say hes almost on the mend, but hes not on the mend just yet. Right. So you mean you are a renowned psychic . Your belief, your instinct and your expertise tells you you think in the end, in the long run, following possibly one more procedure. Yeah, hes going to have another procedure go into potential operation. Yep. And then. But operation. Yep. And then. But you think the prognosis is good that hell be all right in the long run . Well, i do, i think that hes having the best treatment, but i think that i thought your question was, you know, is he going back to work too soon . At the moment i feel he is. But hes a workaholic. I mean, he is. Im a workaholic. Youre workaholic. Do you know what it is . Also, alpesh, hes watched baby reindeer on netflix. Okay. Hes hes done. How i met your mother and the sopranos. Hes seen enough box sets and hed rather shake hands with people, receive flowers and open hospital wings. I think he is the number one patriot by definition. And we need more of those in the country. And hes a role model for people. Definitely who are thinking, well, should i put my feet up or shall i actually go out and do Something Better for the country . And i think thats what we have in the king. Well, even Mike Hollingsworth, an absolutely devoted republican, is smiling at the news that the king is making a recovery back at work on monday. Congratulations king charles, as a poll suggests, they now back labour have gb news viewers gone woke . Well debate that next. A shock poll commissioned exclusively for gb news has revealed that sir keir starmer is now more popular than rishi sunak among gb news viewers. And labour are more popular than the tories, so have gb news viewers gone . Woke alpesh patel . Gone . Woke alpesh patel . Look, the audience cant see the bookshelf. But youve got the bookshelf. But youve got das kapital, the complete works of karl marx. Youve got what youve got, youve got the little red book, jeremy corbyn, my little red book, jeremy corbyn, my life. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And times. They cant see all of that. Last time i was in here, you had mein kampf. You guys have gone completely left wing. Most definitely. Listen, does most definitely. Listen, does it surprise you . Is that the final nail in the coffin for rishi sunak that the gb news viewers would rather have a Labour Government . Well, yeah. Well, yeah. I mean, you just count the numbers. Youve got, what, 50 numbers. Youve got, what, 50 Million People watching tonight. And obviously if theyve all gone labour then labour win. But l, gone labour then labour win. But i, i think people would agree its more rishi is lost now ive got to say being brown being of indian origin, i mean hes buggered it up for me ever becoming pm for probably a couple of generations now. So, couple of generations now. So, you know, im feeling this pain personally on twitter crying out i had ambition. Cant be cant be in the royal family. Cant be Prime Minister. Its working my way down right now. Yeah, but hes the king. Hes going to be knighted next. Gerrys going to be, sir. Well all be bowing to you the next time. Next time. But he doesnt take any boxes. Dont wait. Dont wait. Weve had a British Asian Prime Minister. So your concern is you dont tick boxes anymore. Look at the Scottish First minister, i really think. I think that survey says more about gb news than it says about sunak or starmer. And i think what it shows is that youve got a really good Cross Section of the population viewing, very attracted, and its growing as well. Yes. I mean ive met them, but youre right. And i think, mike, what youre saying is that both that mike, contrary to what our critics might say, gb news is no echo chamber. No, it isnt true. And thats exactly the point. Im making, that gb news actually doesnt just serve one particular wing of the of the political. It stands on its own. And its, i think, gb news is saying what the person at home is saying. Its saying what the saying. Its saying what the pubucis saying. Its saying what the public is saying. Yeah, i think you represent the majority of what people are thinking. But dont you think its sad that its only a choice between st
