Joining me today is lord Daniel Moylan, conservative member of the house of lords, and also norman baker, former liberal democrat minister, who will be going head to head in the clash. Right. Lets see whats coming up as the Labour Government finally outlined their future policies, they appear to be leaving a bitter taste with many voters as the welsh Labour Government is using satellites to spy on homeowners with big gardens as it seeks to overhaul council tax. And on friday, sir keir starmer announced his plans if elected to government. He would see Counter Terror powers to smash people smuggling gangs, as well as scrapping rwanda. New labour mp Natalie Elphicke has been accused of lobbying ministers in attempts to interfere in her former husbands Sexual Assault case, while sir keir starmer regret opening a can of worms and then Civil Service diversity jobs will be banned in a new crackdown on whitehall. Woke in crackdown on whitehall. Woke in a radical overhaul aimed at ending backdoor politicisation of the Civil Service. But should the government be focusing more on important matters, or is this an important matter . After all, wasting money, government money . Our money is serious stuff. And according to the times, prince harry, the duke of sussex, did not see charles during a trip to london this week. But apparently there are different versions of who asked or did not ask to see who, as ever , get in touch in who, as ever, get in touch in the usual way. Gbnews. Com yoursay or tweet me gbnews. But first, is this gbnews. But first, is this really a government in waiting . Yesterday, lord kinnock, a member him. Hes the 1 in 1983 when he fell into the sea on a beach, he was trying to impress the press. It backfired magnificently. And then in 1992, magnificently. And then in 1992, hes led he led his party to defeat in an election which was seen as a guaranteed win for his party. But yesterday, even he pointed out that people are simply not in love with sir Keir Starmers party, and that it was more of a sick of the tories vibe. The public wants change and as the Labour Party Policies unfold, they appear to be leaving a bitter taste with many voters. Kia is unpopular plan on education is starting to unravel , and the proposed 20 vat, which will be added to independent schools fees should they get into power as predicted, they will. It has already been seen 2. 7 fewer admissions to these schools , admissions to these schools, with a number that number set to increase and already strapped parents are scared that they wont be able to afford them choosing not to enrol, further burdening the state sector. A burdening the state sector. A rumoured 40,000 children are expected to end up back in the state education system, and lots of those independent schools may well be forced to close. A law of diminishing returns, it seems his proposal to tackle the small boats under terror laws, many say, are a repackaged version of what already exists. Britain can do better , labour britain can do better, labour will do better. We will end this farce. We will end this farce. We will end this farce. We will restore serious government to our borders, tackle this problem at source and replace the rwanda policy permanently. Today we launch our plan to do that , a new approach to small do that, a new approach to small boat crossings that will secure britains borders, prevent the exploitation by tackling it upstream and smash the criminal smuggling gangs. And as the first step in this plan , a new manifesto plan, a new manifesto commitment, we will set up a new command with new powers, new resources and a new way of doing things. Border security command the security command sounds great, doesnt it . It sounds like a bit of marketing, to be honest, and scrapping. The only thing that appears to be having any impact. Rwanda madness. And to top it rwanda madness. And to top it off, we discover that plans to increase trade union rights with new fair play agreements championed by Angela Rayner , championed by Angela Rayner, whose tax affairs around her old house have all gone quiet , would house have all gone quiet, would cost an average household an extra further. £225 in council tax. And as for using satellites to spy on people with big gardens to rewrite the property bands, which is currently happening in wales, keir starmer called this the blueprint of what a Labour Government can do. God help us. I dont know about you, but if you think tax is high now, i cant see them going down any time soon under those plans. But what do you think . Gbnews. Com win your say . Welcome again to my head to head as lord Daniel Moylan, conservative member of the house of lords and also norman baker, former liberal democrat minister. Im going to start with you. Daniel going to start with you. Daniel plans to. Well, where do you want to start with this . Theres a lot to unravel. Your choice. Well, youve got a couple of questions there, havent you . The first, when you say, are they a government in waiting . The first question is, do i think theyre going to win the general election . I think the chances are obviously that they are going to win the general election. The second question is, are they are they behaving like a government in waiting . Are they showing themselves fit to be a government . I are they showing themselves fit to be a government . I think were a long way from seeing labour party in that position, first of all, theyve revealed very, very few policies. So we actually really dont know what labourin actually really dont know what labour in power would do now, presumably at some point they will tell us, i suppose theyll tell us some of the things theyre going to do, but they havent told us yet. So its hard to make a judgement. But when you do see what they have said and what they are going to do, its all very worrying because it does seem to be determined as much by, buying off little bits of his party. You know, ill buy off the left with this and ill buy off the right with that, rather than any coherent plan or vision. Thats one of the things vision. Thats one of the things about keir starmer. Hes never had a vision. Hes never really been a politician. Hes never had a vision for where he wants to take the country. If you want to take the country. If you want to tell me what his vision is, id be happy to be told. But ive no real idea where he wants to take the country. Weve got to take the country. Weve got the vat on school fees, private school fees, which is purely vindictive and done to please a certain section of the left of his party. The rwanda thing. I just dont believe if rwanda is having an effect in deterring people from coming here. And thats not just measured by the number of people who are actually being flown to rwanda. Actually being flown to rwanda. If its having an effect in deterring people who are coming here or encouraging them to go to other eu countries and away from Great Britain , then i dont from Great Britain, then i dont think he will scrap it. I think he will find excuses not to do so, because people will find it astonishing that he is scrapping something that works. As for having a new Border Command, thats a great idea. In fact, the conservatives have done it already. Exactly. And it exists. But he could bolster it up and give it a new name and maybe a bit more money. But the essential thing about disrupting the criminal gangs is that most of them are operating outside the uk. So unless these guys can do Mission Impossible style raids into the dens, into the basements, into the hidey holes where these criminal travel agents are operating, thats essentially what they are. Theyre running a business. Well, its an industry, isnt it . Unless they can do that, i dont see that theyll be able to do very much more than the governments already achieving on that front. Norman baker well, where do you want to start . But essentially the im going to agree actually with daniel on one point, which is that were not quite clear what the labour party will do if they get into power. And at the moment theyre operating in whats called a ming vase policy, where theyre holding this ming vase terribly carefully and walking across a polished floor, desperate not to drop it, and really, nothing very much about what they want to do because you dont want to lose any votes. And that may be a sensible political strategy, but its not a very honest one. In terms of telling people what they want to do. So we do need some more clarity and we want some more clarity and we want some proper debate. I think, between the three parties, the lib dems, as well as to what will happen after the next election, because it may well be that there will be a Labour Government , there may be a hung government, there may be a Hung Parliament. Heres where i agree with rishi sunak. There is with rishi sunak. There is a possibility of a Hung Parliament looking at the local Election Results , because a local results, because a local election is determined that people are following an a , b, people are following an a, b, c strategy anne diamond but conservatives and voting for whoever can beat the tories in that particular part of the world. Thats what the local elections showed. So we do need to know whats going to happen. We dont want a big surprise Agatha Christie style on the day after the election as to whats going to be the policy of the government of the day. So but in terms of some of the issues which have been raised, i dont think they were under policy is working. Weve had one person go so far who went voluntarily with a nice £3,000 cheque and guaranteed accommodation when he gets there, but the Border Control command arrangement that the labour party is putting forward is, isnt , in fact the forward is, isnt, in fact the same as the tory one repackaged. Theres no difference about that at all. The best thing the government has at the moment is done about , government has at the moment is done about, about this situation has been to do to reach a deal with albania on a on a bilateral arrangement, which is actually cut the numbers from albania quite significantly and more of those sorts of arrangements, i think, and more engagement with the European Union is probably the European Union is probably the way forward, but it isnt going to be very easy. And it wont solve the problem overnight, if at all. So you know, thats thats the issue with that. Now, in terms of the Natalie Elphicke thing, which we want to talk about, perhaps. Want to talk about, perhaps. Look, i mean, this is a grubby political story of big time isnt it . First of all, shes not a labour party , shes not not a labour party, shes not the labour party philosophically , shes a right wing conservative. So why does she join the labour party . It could only be to get back at rishi sunak on a personal basis. There cant be any other reason for doing so. Why is keir starmer adopted there in the teeth of opposition from his own party . Because he once got one over the tories. Why are we now finding out about this, allegation about her lobbying the justice secretary now and not 3 or 4 months ago, because its very con
