safe in the knowledge that they're not going to be taxed on things happening things that aren't happening outside it's a outside the uk. i think it's a great system. people don't great system. some people don't like lots of like it because it's lots of rich people coming in here, but actually for a long time it's meant people. meant lots of people. >> read it being described >> i've read it being described as a sort colonial hangover, as a sort of colonial hangover, which always the ultimate which is always the ultimate insult, it, the modern insult, isn't it, in the modern world. but you say, the world. but as you say, the french did away with and french did away with it. and then all those then guess what? all those wealthy moved to london. wealthy people moved to london. so is that that that so there is that fear that that exodus could happen. but jeremy hunt view. hunt has just taken the view. you i'm just going you know what? i'm just going to blow in their in their blow a hole in their in their finances anyway, right? >> right. because this >> exactly right. because this was big labour idea. so the was a big labour idea. so the tories gone along and tories have gone along and stolen rachel the stolen it. so rachel reeves, the shadow has to shadow chancellor, has had to work and work out a few other bits and bobs. one these things is bobs. so one of these things is going closing some of going to be closing some of the loopholes she exists loopholes that she says exists in the conservatives have in what the conservatives have suggested, other taxes, i think, coming help the suggested, other taxes, i think, comirthe help the suggested, other taxes, i think, comirthe problemzlp the suggested, other taxes, i think, comirthe problem is the suggested, other taxes, i think, comirthe problem is that the suggested, other taxes, i think, comirthe problem is that it's; suggested, other taxes, i think, comirthe problem is that it's so nhs. the problem is that it's so impossible to actually be able to how much stuff to work out how much this stuff will actually raise. can will actually raise. you can always it's going to always say, oh, it's going to raise x many pounds you look raise x many pounds if you look at call a static at it in what you call a static way. but you looking at

way. but if you start looking at these what economists these things in what economists are dynamic which are calling a dynamic way, which is to say, well, you have this effect then it will effect here and then it will have effect and this effect have this effect and this effect all down the line, all the way down the line, because behaviour because people's behaviour changes because people's behaviour charone the things and one of the things change. you know much you can't ever know how much this will which in this will raise. which is why in the went down, the 1980s, when taxes went down, actually of tax money actually the amount of tax money that because that came in went up because people trying to hide people stopped trying to hide their money, stopped their money, they stopped paying for these sorts things. their money, they stopped paying for but.e sorts things. their money, they stopped paying for but the»rts things. their money, they stopped paying for but the nationalngs. office >> but the national audit office have figures have recently published figures saying could be saying 6 billion a year could be recovered through an effort on tax so tax avoidance specifically. so they've this they've obviously decided this is raise them what, is going to raise them what, quite money to help quite a lot of money to help them with these big pledges. yeah. think with these >> but again, i think with these things it's about this sort of headune things it's about this sort of headline figure. that headline figure. i think that the been trading, the ifs have been trading, trading different bodies trading these different bodies back well, we back at you have said, well, we just know. and just don't really know. and there ways you can there are two ways you can do this. you throw money this. you can throw more money at so have at the problem. so you have hmrc hiring more people to investigate or you investigate these things or you could massively simplify the tax code. tax code in hong kong code. the tax code in hong kong we're talking about colonial hangovers. about 130 pages hangovers. it's about 130 pages or here, 30 something or something here, 30 something thousand . it's incredibly thousand pages. it's incredibly complicated. so if you're a great big business or a super

wealthy person, you can pay for an accountant will help you an accountant who will help you move of here and move pots of money here and there change things in there and change things in different the rest different years. stuff the rest of of course, of us can't have. and of course, that's then that's all. just then a deadweight which is money that's all. just then a deactherefore which is money that's all. just then a deactherefore you're ch is money that's all. just then a deactherefore you're nots money that therefore you're not putting building your putting on building your business your business or looking after your family. cut these business or looking after your family if cut these business or looking after your family if we cut these business or looking after your family if we simplifythese business or looking after your family if we simplify everything taxes, if we simplify everything , it stops being worth a while for people to hide this money around the irony, suppose, in around the irony, i suppose, in all talking about all of this about talking about tax the pressure tax avoidance is the pressure remains doesn't it? remains full square, doesn't it? >> rayner, who by some >> on angela rayner, who by some is being accused of tax avoidance on capital gains. is being accused of tax avoidance on capital gains . and avoidance on capital gains. and of course she denies this. but keir starmer coming out saying look, doesn't. it look, he doesn't. he thinks it would to would be inappropriate to see her advice . but now the her legal advice. but now the chairman of the conservative party actually this party saying actually this is going tarnish your going to tarnish your reputation, you reputation, keir starmer, you need a stronger position reputation, keir starmer, you ne

everybody in politics has to be absolutely whiter than white. >> i think if you're coming out and announcing a package today, which people which is going after people who are avoiding tax, and then you're saying, well, you know what? going you what? we're going to just, you know, the as know, she's from the north as one of the excuses or, well, nobody's than white. nobody's whiter than white. well, can they put well, how on earth can they put that policy? it's that out as a policy? it's double it's hypocrisy. that out as a policy? it's d0labsolutely. it's hypocrisy. that out as a policy? it's d0labsolutely. it's think risy. that out as a policy? it's d0labsolutely. it's think one >> absolutely. and i think one defence a woman >> absolutely. and i think one de'well, a woman >> absolutely. and i think one de'well, which a woman >> absolutely. and i think one de'well, which is a woman >> absolutely. and i think one de'well, which is a a woman >> absolutely. and i think one de'well, which is a kind a woman >> absolutely. and i think one de'well, which is a kind aavoman as well, which is a kind of a ridiculous kind of soft bigotry of expectations these of low expectations on these sorts you sorts of things. so either you take politician take that every politician is whiter all of whiter than white. well, all of your will that that your viewers will know that that isn't or do we say, well, isn't true. or do we say, well, hang minute, nobody's isn't true. or do we say, well, hang but1inute,nobody's isn't true. or do we say, well, hang but is ute, nobody's isn't true. or do we say, well, hang but is this nobody's isn't true. or do we say, well, hang but is this person's perfect, but is this person worth what they bring? in the worth what they bring? so in the case old boss, nadhim case of my old boss, nadhim zahawi, vaccine zahawi, the guy ran the vaccine rollout, thousands rollout, saved tens of thousands of queens of lives, ran the queens funeral. and therefore, funeral. right. and therefore, whatever complicated whatever other complicated things happening, whatever other complicated things it's happening, whatever other complicated things it's worth happening, whatever other complicated things it's worth havingappening, whatever other complicated things it's worth having that1ing, whatever other complicated thin at it's worth having that1ing, whatever other complicated thin at the worth having that1ing, whatever other complicated thin at the topth having that1ing, whatever other complicated thin at the top of having that1ing, whatever other complicated thin at the top of having life. 1ing, guy at the top of public life. what is angela rayner most famous i can remember famous for? all i can remember is at her is her shouting scum at her opponents house of commons. >> there we james >> well, there we go, james price, thanks indeed. price, thanks very much indeed. >> you . and let's get an >> thank you. and let's get an update other stories coming update on other stories coming into on this into the newsroom on this tuesday post office into the newsroom on this tuesday public post office

into the newsroom on this tuesday public inquiry post office into the newsroom on this tuesday public inquiry resumes:e horizon public inquiry resumes today, almost four years after it began , with campaigner alan it began, with campaigner alan bates set to make his first appearance. the inquiry has been probing the circumstances that led to the post office wrongly prosecute more than 900 suppliers postmasters, caused by errors in software . errors in software. >> foreign secretary lord cameron has met donald trump in florida before holding talks with the us secretary of state, antony blinken. the two men discussed the war in ukraine, nato and the middle east, and it is the first summit between a senior government minister and the former president since he left office in 2020, up to £11 million from water company fines will be reinvested in schemes to improve waterways and wetlands . improve waterways and wetlands. >> the water restoration fund, which is now opened for applications, will offer grants to local groups, charities, farmers and landowners to help them improve rivers, lakes, streams and wetlands , and

quite a character, quite direct, quite a character, quite direct, quite a character, quite direct, quite a character. last time i met him, he said, oh , let's talk met him, he said, oh, let's talk about climate change. everybody complaining? blue and good for the grouse at sandringham. >> i'll tell you much more. grouse. >> oh my goodness. >> oh my goodness. >> but just the fact that it's been three years. and when you think how much has happened since then, of course he's died. and the late queen elizabeth iis passed . passed away. >> enforcer. >> he was the enforcer. >> he was the enforcer. >> obviously harry and >> he was obviously harry and meghan and all of that has been a frankly, three a turbulent, frankly, three years. so we'll be reflecting on that a little bit later in that a little bit later on in the programme. that a little bit later on in the yeah.amme. that a little bit later on in the yeah. solar. that a little bit later on in the yeah. solar eclipse. have you >> yeah. solar eclipse. have you got to it in britain? got up to look at it in britain? you have seen anything. you won't have seen anything. lots covering lots of clouds covering things, but last over but it could have last for over 4.5 where you but it could have last for over 4.5 in where you but it could have last for over 4.5 in world. where you but it could have last for over 4.5 in world. and where you but it could have last for over 4.5 in world. and thatere you but it could have last for over 4.5 in world. and that was)u were in the world. and that was mostly north america, where it happened. mostly north america, where it happened . let's have a look at happened. let's have a look at it. this in the past few hours , it. this in the past few hours, and there's basically what it looked like . so magical, isn't looked like. so magical, isn't it really a ring of fire in the sky? >> they're quite rare, aren't they? these total eclipses won't happen again. apparently for

another 20 years, and americans, in typical sort of american fashion, were all whooping and crying. did you see some of the scenes of the of the gathered crowds there? you can see lots of sort of very american reaction to all of that. and fortunately for us, as amy was saying , not so lucky with seeing saying, not so lucky with seeing the partial eclipse here in the uk because of cloudy weather. you know, the thing that gets me is the president, the president of the most powerful country in the world, the united states, joe biden has to come on with a pubuc joe biden has to come on with a public safety message. >> don't look at the sun without don't look at directly and don't look at it directly and don't look at it directly and don't it without wearing don't look at it without wearing glasses. of morons are glasses. what sort of morons are out there? >> i mean, he never takes his ray—bans off anyway. does biden he doesn't need to worry, so he'll that. he'll be like that. >> but, but i suppose you have to. there are a lot of people in the world, but there are a lot of thick people, i'll tell you who's thick. who's not thick. >> thompson, he's an >> mark thompson, he's an astronomer. they are the cleverest good cleverest of the clever. good morning you, mind morning to you, sort of mind boggle, this, i

boggle, sort of. all of this, i find space talk in general makes me inconsequential me feel really inconsequential and and trying to and small and trying to understand the science behind a total eclipse bring us up to speed on exactly what has been witnessed in the last few hours . witnessed in the last few hours. >> well, the, the earth goes around the sun and the moon goes around the sun and the moon goes around the sun and the moon goes around the earth, and every so often they line up . it's as often they line up. it's as simple as that. and when we get the, the moon passing in between the, the moon passing in between the the sun, when we the earth and the sun, when we get perfect there's get a perfect alignment, there's a wonderful that describes a wonderful word that describes it syzygy, and when it called a syzygy, and when that happens, the moon blocks sunlight from reaching the earth. you have to be in a very specific area on earth to , to specific area on earth to, to witness it, and of course, yesterday , in the few hours ago, yesterday, in the few hours ago, people in north america and mexico were lucky enough to, to witness the event. but they are quite rare , unfortunately, quite rare, unfortunately, i think another, 50, 60 think we've got another, 50, 60 odd years to wait before we get to see another one the uk . to see another one in the uk. >> it's not a tourist attraction. it's not like a disney attraction or whatever. i reckon. gives reckon. it obviously gives scientists the chance to do things that they couldn't

normally done. what sort of attention, from the scientific community would have been on what happened last night ? what happened last night? >> well, one of the things we still don't understand too much about the sun, the outer, thinner atmosphere of the sun called the corona, is actually really, really hot because the sun itself is hot, but the corona seems to get hotter, the further away from the sun it is, so we don't fully understand quite why why the corona seems to be heated up to higher temperatures than the visible surface. so when you get a solar eclipse , total solar eclipse, eclipse, total solar eclipse, you actually block the bright photosphere . the really bright photosphere. the really bright portion of the sun gets blocked out, and you get to see, that wonderful ring of fire, which shows the corona and that gives you an opportunity to study it, so we were certainly looking at that yesterday, trying learn that yesterday, trying to learn and unlock some of the mysteries of it. >> i was talking a little bit earlier in the intro about the reaction the americans, but reaction of the americans, but the reaction of nature very,

very different and always fascinating. just describe a little bit about the impact on birds, insects, wildlife when these events happen, apparently silent. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> well, you know, i was down in cornwall in 1999 for the eclipse that you could see total eclipse in the uk , and you talk about in the uk, and you talk about americans getting carried away and weeping . where i was, it was and weeping. where i was, it was cloudy, you couldn't see anything. the uk, we anything. but even in the uk, we still whooped, was still whooped, which was a bizarre experience, but absolutely right. when, when you've got, middle of the day and goes dark, animals think and it goes dark, animals think it's got turn to night—time, and everything goes quiet. cows often lay down during the, the moment of totality . but then moment of totality. but then when the sun comes out again, you get another dawn chorus . and you get another dawn chorus. and it was most peculiar. i forget what time it was back in 1999, but it was middle of the day , but it was middle of the day, and we suddenly had this dawn chorus sun came chorus when the sun came out again and most bizarre experience. >> mean, i'm presuming >> yeah. i mean, i'm presuming you didn't get a glimpse there was nowhere near you locally that you were able to see

anything. >> no, not at all. i live in norfolk. we never get to see any clear skies here, unfortunately. but you would have had to have travelled the north—west travelled to the north—west of the try get the country to try and get a glimpse of just before the glimpse of it just before the sunset, i've not heard sunset, but i've not heard of anybody saw from anybody who saw anything from the plenty the uk because, plenty of cloud coven the uk because, plenty of cloud cover. unfortunately >> a very good >> but isabel made a very good point about how point there about how inconsequential she feels, seeing magnitude of seeing the magnitude of something like this, it is quite humbling , something like this, it is quite humbling, isn't it? >> yeah, absolutely. i think, you know, when you think about it, these sort of things, they happen even if we're here or not, the solar eclipses, lunar eclipses , they're not human. eclipses, they're not human. they're not here for humans. it's just the chance event, that happens and we get to observe it. but you're right. if you if you think too much about the stuff that goes on in the universe and you think about the sheer scale, of the universe, you know, we've discovered now over 5000 other planets around other systems , and the more other star systems, and the more we learn about it, kind of the more inconsequential you feel, but you've got to keep a, you

know, keep a level head. and it's quite a fascinating universe out there . universe out there. >> will you keep doing the fascinating work that you do? must be incredible being an astronomer. one the astronomer. and one of the exciting for you guys exciting nights for you guys last night. thanks very much indeed, mark, for take on indeed, mark, for your take on things . indeed, mark, for your take on things. thank indeed, mark, for your take on things . thank appreciate things. thank you. appreciate it. thank you. >> with all that, i don't know, it wasn't just cloudy where i was last night. we had those crazy again pouring with crazy winds again pouring with rain i driving this rain as i was driving in this morning. some wild weather out there inconsequential there that's inconsequential compared to that. >> i mean, as he said, love is a burning thing. >> here we go. and it makes a fiery rain bound by wild desire . fiery rain bound by wild desire. i fell into a ring of fire. >> i can't even go that low. >> i can't even go that low. >> that's what it was. it was a ring of fire. >> that's what you should be talking about today. how fiery was your ring last night? did you get to . see the eclipse you get to. see the eclipse anywhere? and then there's that

other song. isn't there? is it a is it a total eclipse of the heart? >> the heart? >> the heart? >> yeah. >> em- em.- >> that one we sang that. >> that one we sang that. >> oh, tonya, someone or other. >> what is it? >> what is it? >> i'll look i'll that one >> i'll look i'll look that one up, shuttleworth, up, annie shuttleworth, with your . your forecast. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on . gb news. >> good morning. welcome to your latest gb news weather update. it's going to be a very windy day for some of us today. there are wind warnings in are rain and wind warnings in force, also to force, and it's also going to be feeling lot than feeling a lot cooler than yesterday, across yesterday, particularly across the an area of low the east as an area of low pressure with wristband of rain wrapped around it. that's bringing the wet windy bringing the wet and windy weather the weather to many areas. the strongest winds will be across western coasts through this afternoon. that's where we've got the wind warning in force. parts north—west parts of wales, north—west england, the south england, but also the south coast, very strong england, but also the south coast, winds very strong england, but also the south coast, winds thatary strong england, but also the south coast, winds that could ong england, but also the south coast, winds that could bring and gusty winds that could bring travel but it's the travel disruption. but it's the rain across parts of scotland that will likely bring some flooding on flooding issues and delays on the well . it the roads. trains as well. it will be feeling much colder as

well than yesterday. highs only of around 13 or 14 degrees after temperatures reached mid temperatures reached the mid teens through yesterday. however, it does however, through tonight it does turn a lot drier across the country. that area of low pressure pushes away the east pressure pushes away to the east and we have a ridge of higher pressure that will bring much dnen pressure that will bring much drier, conditions drier, clearer conditions throughout the evening. however, that's going to let temperatures drop down so we could see a touch frost in rural areas by touch of frost in rural areas by wednesday morning. is wednesday morning. but it is going much drier and going to be a much drier and brighter start to the day on wednesday. stay largely wednesday. should stay largely dry across eastern dry on wednesday across eastern areas, particularly across southeastern england, but further west, the cloud will thicken through the day. rain will across of will arrive across parts of wales through wales and the southwest through the will push the morning, and that will push into of northern ireland, into parts of northern ireland, northern england, scotland where it and turn it will really linger and turn quite persistent and heavy. there's rain warning force there's a rain warning in force for western of for many western areas of scotland, here could see scotland, so here we could see some disruption from some delays and disruption from the rain, but temperatures will be average . be around average. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather

biden's not going to be in power. else he would have visited he? visited biden, wouldn't he? >> what are the >> exactly. i mean, what are the opfics >> exactly. i mean, what are the optics whole if optics of this whole visit, if nothing say it's nothing less than to say it's a foregone conclusion trump foregone conclusion that trump might in. and foregone conclusion that trump mighlord in. and foregone conclusion that trump mighlord cameron, in. and foregone conclusion that trump mighlord cameron, the n. and foregone conclusion that trump mighlord cameron, the worsti then lord cameron, the worst ever i think ever foreign minister, i think in our time. >> really? yeah i agree, i really don't like i do i do you oh i mean, just look his oh i mean, just look at his foreign was foreign policy while he was actually minister actually prime minister >> i mean, you know, cosying up to china, selling swathes of london off. now he's obviously china's the big enemy. that was just ago. is just a few weeks ago. this is a guy that oversaw of those guy that oversaw all of those problems. he's the man problems. and now he's the man supposedly to fix it, i just is easy, though, with the crystal ball. i do castigate . ball. of course i do castigate. >> i think what's perhaps more interesting is the sort of unlikely union. look, they're both right wing, aren't they? trump you've both right wing, aren't they? trurcameron, you've both right wing, aren't they? trurcameron, wrote you've both right wing, aren't they? trurcameron, wrote in)u've both right wing, aren't they? trurcameron, wrote in hise got cameron, who wrote in his memoirs on the record that this man was a misogynist misogynist, that he was xenophobic, that he was divisive. how do you think that they that went down when they were sipping florida? that went down when they were sippsure florida? that went down when they were sippsure if florida? that went down when they were sippsure if trump's florida? that went down when they were sippsure if trump's read da? that went down when they were sippsure if trump's read those i'm sure if trump's read those memoirs, he's famously memoirs, he's quite famously skinned, memoirs, he's quite famously

skirtrump couldn't give two hoots >> trump couldn't give two hoots what david cameron thinks. i'm surprised he's even met him. >> so am i. »- >> so am i. >> do you know what i think he'd say? >> dont say? >> don't cry, david. >> don't cry, david. >> don't cry no good. don't cry . >> don't cry no good. don't cry. >> don't cry no good. don't cry. >> i don't even think trump would understand what misogyny was . i would understand what misogyny was. i don't think you even think you could make it up, you know? but the other thing know? and but the other thing is, why is cameron wanting, trump to fund his part of nato to fund the war in ukraine? i think it's an absolute sham. i really , really do. really, really do. >> meaning? meaning what? >> meaning? meaning what? >> well, i think, well , what >> well, i think, well, what i think is that the war in ukraine against russia is something a bit more political, a bit more nuanced than, you know, an actual all out war. i think there's money being held. i think there's it's a it's a money making machine. and i think it's being laundered. i don't think it's a right and just war, a money making machine i >> -- >> for 5mm >> for whom? for the arms companies. >> well, as well. >> well, as well. >> or for people trading in oil

or wheat. yes, yes. >> there's something funny going on there really, really is. >> you could say that about any war. but, i mean, i think the west certainly war. but, i mean, i think the west of certainly war. but, i mean, i think the west of people certainly war. but, i mean, i think the west of people are certainly war. but, i mean, i think the west of people are agreed, ly most of people are agreed, whether who whether it's trump now who admits that his position previously on nato was a bit controversial, that you have to stand up against the aggression of . and defend ukraine, of russia. and defend ukraine, because if you don't, which country will be next? this is europe. this is on european soil. >> it's trump not saying how does this end? because i don't >> it's trump not saying how does tiis end? because i don't >> it's trump not saying how does ti don't? because i don't >> it's trump not saying how does ti don't thinkause i don't >> it's trump not saying how does ti don't think anyone on't >> it's trump not saying how does ti don't think anyone knows know. i don't think anyone knows where to end where this war is going to end because a war attrition. because it's a war of attrition. now, really. got now, isn't it really. you've got the literally the ukrainians sort of literally in the in trenches. you've got the russians just russians saying, we're just going putting people going to keep on putting people on lines. and this is on the front lines. and this is what putin is banking on. >> on everybody >> he's banking on everybody to get not want to get tired of it, to not want to fund, the war machine anymore. and then he has got point. and then he has got a point. >> has got >> this about that. he has got a point that, especially point about that, especially with financial crisis the with the financial crisis the west facing. and west is facing. by and large, i mean, all us, we look at our mean, all of us, we look at our all our own lives. you could all our own lives. and you could listen labour talking about listen to labour talking about they're going us more and

they're going to tax us more and whatever, people whatever, whatever. but people have harder. have never had it harder. i really think, well, yeah, but really do think, well, yeah, but it'd be a lot worse under putin. >> should speak to hard >> you should speak to how hard it under putin in it is under under putin in russia. it's the russia. yeah. it's the alternative , can we talk, alternative, can we talk, claire, about. well, we've sort of touched on tax dodgers. do we want to dwell on that? i mean, a big labour story in front of the lord of the papers. >> but again, it's down to manifestos. it's just manifestos. i mean, it's just incredible. all this rhetoric coming from both sides now. coming out from both sides now. well, we have to fix what 16 years of conservative government have done and we will fix it by £555 billion. investment in hmrc and what are hmrc saying? whoa, great. wonderful well it's just not on. where are they going to get this money from. and you know she's got the it sounds almost as if it's tony blair again but she, she's banking on hmrc paying for themselves. >> so they're basically saying we'll invest 5 billion in you or whatever it and i get us 500 whatever it is. and i get us 500 billion. yeah. >> well there is a deficit

there, billion there, £32 billion deficit between expect to get between what they expect to get in and they're not getting in. >> well, understand that >> well, i don't understand that because we've just had because we've we've just had another in the another surplus in the government recently. and they're saying they need to find more. i just don't know how much more you can squeeze out of people in this country . we i think we need this country. we i think we need to invest in growth, grow the economy. that's that's the way people money. people spend more money. don't don't reduce don't tax us to reduce tax, reduce tax to come down. >> let money, let people use their and let people run their money and let people run their money and let people run the economy by buying. you can't grow a country through taxes and clawing money. clawing back money. >> owed is famously >> that is owed is famously difficult, isn't it? and it really ends up in expensive litigation. and the tories say they've already implemented 200 measures to tackle this. measures to try and tackle this. they think it's that they don't think it's that simple. reeves might be simple. rachel reeves might be sort . sort of fanciful. >> it's talk, as claire says, it's talk and talk is cheap. talk is the cheapest thing with all of this. i mean, when you look at, who you need to go or the big companies who don't the big companies who they don't touch and the, you touch the amazons and the, you know, companies that

know, all these companies that are paying in are that are not paying tax in this they're this country. so they're creating then creating employment and then they little people they hire the little people and then the little people are taxed. the taxed. so that gives the government money government extra money there. but that but the big guys that are creating employment creating the employment aren't taxed it's taxed on this on and it's laughable problem laughable when the other problem is, look, people who earn cash, right? people who take cash . right? people who take cash. yeah, i can you, it's just yeah, i can tell you, it's just they're . not declaring that. they're. not declaring that. they're not declaring it. and that's why they want to go from a cash society to a paperless society , so they know what society, so they know what everybody's up what everybody's up to and what they're you they're doing. but even if you were from, you were to take money from, you know, earning know, somebody who's earning £50,000 they're £50,000 a year and they're making thousand quid making an extra thousand quid through fiddling cash or whatever is that's paying whatever it is that's not paying the not, it's the bills. no, no it's not, it's still these big companies still after these big companies that we've got to go. >> and the other issue i have with these big companies is the fact using people fact that they're using people almost human slaves. it's almost like human slaves. it's these hour contracts. they these zero hour contracts. they are appalling. you cannot hold a family together on a zero hour contract. you cannot move up the ladder property ladder on a zero hour contract. they are useless,

a mortgage. >> you can't get a loan. you can't think of the future. >> exactly. >> exactly. >> but, claire, you looked at the of express. and the front of the express. and here we are talking about more taxes taxes taxes and clawing back taxes that and you that are unpaid. and then you see services in see the services that are in desperate need funding. and desperate need of funding. and this specifically desperate need of funding. and this patientsspecifically desperate need of funding. and this patients,)ecifically desperate need of funding. and this patients , what'slly desperate need of funding. and this patients , what's their line. >> so this is a this is a report on a campaign from the daily express. now that they want to increase the funding for more radiotherapy centres, radiotherapy treatment centres, you're supposed to have a 45 minute journey to your place that you need to get your oncology treatment. and what this what they express have found is that that's not the case in of britain . that's case in parts of britain. that's absolutely diabolical. when people are being tested and they're being observed and they're being observed and they're finding out that they have got cancer, they need to be treated, i would say that the forward planning of the nhs has been so chronically bad, so chronically mismanaged , and so chronically mismanaged, and so chronically mismanaged, and so chronically mismanaged, and so chronically mis funded as well in terms of the way they manage

it. >> but claire, what you then if you were in charge of the health service, whatever it is, and people can go on, they'll always find ways of spending but find ways of spending money. but the thing is, alex, you've got to say which thing is worth spending money and you can spending money on. and you can argue is worth argue that toothache is worth spending money on. cancer treatment is worth spending whatever. how you actually treatment is worth spending whatorer. how you actually treatment is worth spending whato somebody, you actually treatment is worth spending whato somebody, youwe'reilly treatment is worth spending whato somebody, youwe're not say to somebody, no, we're not in the business of doing ingrown toenails or whatever, because thatis toenails or whatever, because that is what has to happen eventually. you've got to say, alex, ingrown toenail is alex, you're ingrown toenail is your problem. you have to pay for yourself. it's for for that yourself. it's not for the government to for. yeah. the government to pay for. yeah. >> thing is, it's really >> and the thing is, it's really politically unpopular to say that eamonn, you know, no politician going out politician is going to come out and say, not going to and say, we're not going to we're to deal with we're not going to deal with that. really part of that. and that's really part of the problem. we do need as a country to have a conversation about what we out of our about what we want out of our health service, we keep health service, because we keep chucking cash into chucking more and more cash into it and the has it every year. and the nhs has gone budget , but it's gone up in budget, but it's never and why? the never enough. and why? what the question know why question i want to know is why is never enough? what is it?

question i want to know is why is that's enough? what is it? question i want to know is why is that's entrue,? what is it? question i want to know is why is that's entrue,? whati'll it? >> that's so true, alex? i'll tell enough. tell you why it's never enough. because now operate . because the nhs now operate. like a menu when you walk into a restaurant. yeah. what would you like to have done to you today? >> would you like bigger breasts? >> exactly. >> yes, exactly. >> yes, exactly. >> like ageing >> would you like also ageing population? with complex needs. more people with complex needs. yes. about obesity. yes. we've talked about obesity. >> legitimate. yes. we've talked about obesity. >> i legitimate. yes. we've talked about obesity. >> i l> it's very bloated isn't it ? >> it's very bloated isn't it? we also have to be honest and say, you know, we are experiencing the highest immigration on record and that's going to continue. 97% of our population growth will be immigrants over the next ten

asking whether the foreign office is too elitist. this is, as former diplomats call for radical reform to the department. that's our debate. later . later. front page. the mirror today talks about the shadow chancellor, rachel reeves. she's set to announce a new crackdown on what she terms our tax dodgers in a bid to help fund the nhs. so that's all the good bit. who are these tax dodgers and. and where are we going to get this money from? let's go to james murray and james is the shadow financial secretary. and james, how much of this money is floating about ? and who are floating about? and who are these tax dodgers . these tax dodgers. >> yeah. what we know that there's up to £6 billion, which could be got from a greater focus on compliance and efforts on tax avoidance. that's what the head of the national audit

office said earlier this year. and so we're setting out our plans today to crack down on that tax avoidance and to get that tax avoidance and to get that money into the public purse, because, you know, when people across britain are people right across britain are paying people right across britain are paying and more tax, we paying more and more tax, we think it's wrong minority think it's wrong that a minority are getting away without paying what they owe. and so that's why we're setting out our plans. what they owe. and so that's why we'ie setting out our plans. what they owe. and so that's why we'i want ng out our plans. what they owe. and so that's why we'i want to out our plans. what they owe. and so that's why we'i want to know,|r plans. what they owe. and so that's why we'i want to know, do lans. what they owe. and so that's why we'i want to know, do they owe >> i want to know, do they owe £100, £100 million? i'm £100, £1000 or £100 million? i'm just of trying to get who just sort of trying to get who who these villains are . who these villains are. >> yeah. well, one part of our plan is to remove the loopholes which the government has left open for non—doms in their plans to follow our lead and close the non—dom tax loophole this year. so, as you may remember, we've been setting out for a number of years about ending non—dom tax status. the government said they wanted to follow our lead after years they wouldn't , years of saying they wouldn't, but they're leaving open loopholes in which means loopholes in that, which means that paying that people can avoid paying hundreds millions pounds hundreds of millions of pounds of to close of tax. so we want to close those loopholes but part those loopholes. but that's part of broader to of a broader approach to investment hmrc to improve

investment in hmrc to improve compliance. and, you know, one of the areas where it's important to focus, for instance, is on some of the larger businesses where they will have tax affairs, which are more complicated, where the sums of money we're talking about are greater. and so that's a really important place to focus efforts to sure people to make sure people and businesses paying the tax businesses are paying the tax that they owe. >> it was so easy to claw back this money. why didn't you announce it before? isn't it simply that over the last four weeks, you and effectively your boss rachel reeves and the team in treasury have been in the treasury have been desperately to plug desperately trying to plug a black hole that's been blown into your sums by the chancellor when he decided to use your non—dom tax policy . non—dom tax policy. >> well, we've long set out our ambitions to take on the tax gap and to make sure that people pay their fair share of tax, that people pay what they owe. we set out for a number of years about how we wanted to close the non—dom tax loophole. you're right years of right to say that after years of opposing us, the government u—turned and followed lead.

u—turned and followed our lead. but government has still but the government has still left in their plans. left holes in their plans. they've loopholes , they've still left loopholes, which means that non—doms will get hundreds get away without paying hundreds of millions of pounds of tax that they should be paying. so we how we would close we set out how we would close those part of our those loopholes as part of our wider to improve wider efforts to improve compliance and down on tax compliance and crack down on tax avoidance, money avoidance, because that's money that we're owed as the taxpayer and go into and and should go into the nhs and breakfast clubs as we as we set out. >> well, james, we were talking about this earlier the about this earlier in the program think program today and i think everybody's favour of the everybody's in favour of the idea that if you are particularly massive company, particularly a massive company, a big company, whether you're apple, whether you're amazon or , apple, whether you're amazon or, you know, i don't know who to name on this, but the seems name on this, but the idea seems to be that can come here, to be that they can come here, they set up business, they can set up business, they can jobs people can give lots of jobs to people on salaries , but they on small salaries, but they themselves avoid paying the big bills. now the argument against you on this will be if you make life difficult for these big employers, they'll simply go elsewhere and we'll lose out on the jobs . the jobs. >> well, there has been a piece

of work over the last few years about some of those large multi nationals making sure that they pay nationals making sure that they pay their fair share of tax. and we've been pushing the government to take action on that as part of a international deal to make sure that we end that race to the bottom, because otherwise what some large multinationals do is shift their profits around to areas where there are lower effective tax rates and avoid paying their fair share. but this is a this is a broader piece we're talking about here. so this is about making sure that right across the people pay the tax the board, people pay the tax that they owe. and know, we that they owe. and you know, we know majority of people know the vast majority of people in not just paying in britain are not just paying taxes, and more taxes, but paying more and more taxes. you know, tax burden taxes. you know, the tax burden is be its highest in 70 is set to be its highest in 70 years. and so particularly in that , it's not fair that that context, it's not fair that a minority not paying what a minority are not paying what they owe. and that's why we believe this an important believe this is an important time focus efforts on closing time to focus efforts on closing that tax gap and make sure everyone their share . everyone pays their fair share. >> how would angela rayner fare under this tighter scrutiny of tax affairs ?

tax affairs? >> well, angela rayner has been under scrutiny in the media recently. she's answered all the questions . you know, i'm questions. you know, i'm confident she's done nothing wrong. >> why won't you publish her legal advice and. >> well, that's a personal matter for angela. you know, what we're saying is that if you look at what the conservatives are doing in office, they are making sure there are loopholes there for non—doms to continue avoiding paying hundreds of million pounds of tax. and i'm sure, you know, they are happy to talk about someone in the labour party to try distract labour party to try and distract attention away from their record in what want in government. but what i want to talk about, what i'm interested sure we're interested in making sure we're setting our plans to setting out, is our plans to close those loopholes worth hundreds of millions, billions of over the next of pounds over the next parliament fund public services. >> you services. » you services. >> you see that it's >> but you must see that it's ironic that you are talking ironic that here you are talking about clamp down on about trying to clamp down on tax loopholes and tax avoidance, and there are questions in the pubuc and there are questions in the public domain, not least, that have been published by the mail on in on sunday and other papers in recent weeks, her own photographs seeming to contradict her own version of

events. got tory party events. we've got the tory party chair saying out this morning that richard that that richard holden, that this is highly corrosive to the reputation of your leader, sir keir starmer. >> what i think is what is absolutely hypocritical and awful, james, is a lot of these accusations are coming from people who are non—dom, who are outside and who may be in a position where they're dodging hundreds of millions of pounds that could be taxed. and, you know, what is the worst case scenario with angela rayner? she owes £1,000 or something. >> you know, the point is, she could be our future deputy prime minister. >> and if she doesn't have to pay >> and if she doesn't have to pay taxes that she's owed, pay the taxes that she's owed, why should any this is why should any of us? this is a legitimate of somebody legitimate question of somebody who's likely who's very likely to be in a very of very significant position of power we power in this country. we >> there have been plenty of questions put to angela in recent weeks, and she's answered them. i'm confident she's done nothing wrong. but, you know, as eamonn there are hundreds eamonn said, there are hundreds of of pounds, billions of millions of pounds, billions of millions of pounds, billions of over the few of pounds over the next few years, non—doms are going years, which non—doms are going to avoid paying because the

government know, in government are, you know, in broad daylight, leaving open these they these loopholes so they can avoid paying their fair share. you know, talking you know, we've been talking about the unfairness of non—doms not paying their fair share of tax for years and years. the government have been opposing us, tooth nail . us, you know, tooth and nail. finally, u—turn, they finally, they u—turn, but they leave loophole , which leave a gaping loophole, which means that hundreds of millions, billions over the next billions of pounds over the next few years will still be avoided because loopholes the because of the loopholes the government leaving open for government are leaving open for those non—doms. >> james, going to >> okay, james, we're going to leave . we'll from leave it there. we'll hear from the rachel the shadow chancellor, rachel reeves , today on what she's got reeves, today on what she's got planned. but thanks for highlighting things. appreciate it.thank highlighting things. appreciate it. thank you very much. thank you. >> thanks a lot. >> thanks a lot. >> now, court documents have revealed that the murder suspect in the fatal stabbing of a woman in the fatal stabbing of a woman in bradford was out on bail after making threats to assault and kill her. >> this is a terribly disturbing story . what we know at the story. what we know at the moment is habib masoom was 25 years of age. he's from bangladesh . he's a bangladeshi bangladesh. he's a bangladeshi national. he came to britain on

a student visa. let's go to our homeland security editor mark white. and mark will fill you in more with what we know. good morning. mark >> good morning. well, this case certainly has taken a serious and worrying turn . perhaps not a and worrying turn. perhaps not a surprise, though, given that west yorkshire police and greater manchester police said yesterday afternoon that they'd referred themselves to the policing watchdog , the policing watchdog, the independent office for police conduct, because of previous contact they had had with both the victim, kusuma akhtar, and the victim, kusuma akhtar, and the prime suspect, habiba masood , that contact we now know was in the form of allegations and a subsequent charge of habib masoom , who appeared in court at masoom, who appeared in court at manchester magistrates court on the 27th of november last year to face charges that he assaulted kusuma akhtar and also

that he threatened to kill her. now he denied those charges . he now he denied those charges. he was granted conditional bail despite prosecution objections and one of the conditions was that he did not go anywhere near kusuma akhtar. and of course we now know that she was stabbed to death on saturday afternoon in bradford city centre and that masoom is the prime suspect. police have described him as extremely dangerous. they warned the public not to go anywhere near him, but if they have any information on his whereabouts, to dial 999. and yesterday we revealed as well that masoom came to the uk two years ago. he's a bangladeshi national. he arrived here on a student visa . arrived here on a student visa. now what we're told is that he is not an overstayer , that he is is not an overstayer, that he is still legitimately here on that student visa. however, the home office said that they would not go into his immigration status.

they did say, however , that they did say, however, that anyone who is a foreign national and who is ultimately convicted of a serious crime would be deported at the earliest possible opportunity . possible opportunity. >> leave it there. thank you very much indeed. and, it's very interesting that people get an idea of that man from his video blogs that he does, and the accusation that's levelled at him at the moment. how do those both go together ? your views are both go together? your views are always welcome. gb news. com forward slash your say the new way to get in touch with us. >> yeah we're going stateside now. the foreign secretary lord cameron flown overnight and cameron has flown overnight and met with donald trump at his met up with donald trump at his mar florida, residence mar a lago, florida, residence before he'll be holding talks with us with his counterpart, the us secretary of state, antony blinken, doing a joint press conference afternoon . conference this afternoon. >> so what was discussed? it's believed ukraine, nato , the believed ukraine, nato, the middle east all on the agenda. and this is the first summit between a senior government

minister and the former president since he left office in let's get the views in 2021. let's not get the views of former chief of staff to nadhim zahawi. and that's james price . james, we're sitting price. james, we're sitting we're just scratching our heads here a bit and just wondering, cameron, how long would he be foreign secretary for? how long would he be in government for , would he be in government for, assuming that what use is trump unless he becomes president, which looks highly likely that he would , why is he seeing he would, why is he seeing cameron? why is cameron going to see him? >> it's a great question. i mean, i think back in 2016, you still got david cameron as prime minister before the brexit debate. you've trump this debate. you've got trump as this insurgent outsider. no one gave a hope in hell of him becoming president. and he talked about how have. one how he would have. i think one of controversial things of the most controversial things was from muslim was a ban on people from muslim countries united countries entering the united states, the way, would states, that by the way, would have boss, have affected my old boss, nadhim born nadhim zahawi, who was born in baghdad. nadhim zahawi, who was born in baghdad . and cameron said that baghdad. and cameron said that these it was these things were stupid. it was wrong. rest of it safe wrong. all the rest of it safe in the knowledge that trump would president. would never be president. it would never be president. it would worry about would never be president. it wouldthings. worry about would never be president. it wouldthings. forward' about would never be president. it wouldthings. forward allout these things. fast forward all these things. fast forward all these as he these years. lord cameron, as he now secretary , having

now is foreign secretary, having to go and talk to him. and this is nature diplomacy. is just the nature of diplomacy. this these things work. this is how these things work. you you i find you know, you i think we find that america 350 years ago, that in america 350 years ago, they decided they want they decided they didn't want this be controlling this island to be controlling them. it was foolish this island to be controlling thus. it was foolish this island to be controlling thus. be it was foolish this island to be controlling thus. be opining; foolish this island to be controlling thus. be opining on foolish this island to be controlling thus. be opining on onfoolish this island to be controlling thus. be opining on on what's of us to be opining on on what's going on over there. i'm just looking the that looking forward to the idea that if starmer does ever if keir starmer does ever actually make it as prime minister gets back minister and trump gets back into house, two minister and trump gets back intc going house, two minister and trump gets back intc going to house, two minister and trump gets back intcgoing to haveuse, two minister and trump gets back intc going to have to 5, two minister and trump gets back intc going to have to e, uptwo are going to have to cosy up with other as well. with each other as well. >> well, yeah, i heard farage saying between saying he'd be the go between between which saying he'd be the go between be anzen which saying he'd be the go between bean unlikely which saying he'd be the go between bean unlikely set which saying he'd be the go between bean unlikely set of which saying he'd be the go between bean unlikely set of people which saying he'd be the go between bean unlikely set of people to /hich is an unlikely set of people to put in a, in a little sandwich. there but just going back to cameron, if you've read his memoir on the record, not only at the time did he call him xenophobic and racist for those comments about muslims, but, i mean, he's called him a misogynist. he's called him divisive. hold back. divisive. he didn't hold back. those in black and those memoirs are in black and white. now. trump might not be, you sits down you know, a man who sits down and book, but presumably and reads a book, but presumably he'll by advisers he'll be told by his advisers some the views that lord some of the views that lord cameron has. they're not exactly a marriage made heaven. do a marriage made in heaven. do you will matter? and a marriage made in heaven. do yoit will matter? and a marriage made in heaven. do yoit in will matter? and a marriage made in heaven. do

yoit in trump'snill matter? and a marriage made in heaven. do yoit in trump's interestter? and a marriage made in heaven. do yoit in trump's interest to? and a marriage made in heaven. do yoit in trump's interest to sit1d is it in trump's interest to sit down with lord cameron? >> well, i suppose when theresa may had some of these things put to prime to her when she was prime minister, she you know, minister, she said, you know, maybe sometimes opposites attract. minutes attract. and then a few minutes later you see them holding hands going down. that's true. steps together, this is just the nature international nature of international diplomacy. think the diplomacy. and i think the wonderful half is wonderful thing my other half is american. have the special american. we have the special relationship. i think it's something much something that goes much, much deeper politics, deeper than just politics, military deeper than just politics, miterms intelligence . in in terms of intelligence. in terms of economics. i think we should be cosying up with the americans much, much more because are, as lincoln because they are, as lincoln said, last best for said, the last best hope for mankind that's mankind and in the world. that's getting increasingly dangerous. china with russia, with iran all working to be working together, we need to be standing shoulder to shoulder on these big issues. and that's what to talk to what cameron's gone to talk to trump about. >> because wants trump about. >> and because wants trump about. >> and sort because wants trump about. >> and sort out:ause wants trump about. >> and sort out thise wants trump about. >> and sort out this blockants to try and sort out this block by republican in by republican senators in congress of big funding congress of this big funding package, for package, aid package for ukraine. that, i suppose, is why he's gone to an unelected official because of his representative, links republican links rather than it's a snub from biden not to be meeting lord cameron is that how you

would view it? absolutely. would view it? yeah, absolutely. >> this has been >> and i think this has been happening as well. happening in reverse as well. when over here, when americans come over here, they've the they've been seeing the government and they've also been seeing sir keir starmer's team as well. i think that's just an important part of doing this. the american politics important part of doing this. the is american politics important part of doing this. the is you american politics important part of doing this. the is you havearican politics important part of doing this. the is you have to :an politics important part of doing this. the is you have to :an and:ics important part of doing this. the is you have to :an and get work is you have to try and get things through both things passed through both houses throw houses of congress. you throw all bits in all sorts of different bits in so as well as giving money for ukraine, the republicans want money to protect the southern border. got border. we think we've got a problem illegal immigration problem with illegal immigration in the uk. millions of people have swept up through that southern joe biden southern border since joe biden took all this took office. so it's all this kind trading kind of horse trading that's such of politics kind of horse trading that's suchturns of politics kind of horse trading that's suchturns most of politics kind of horse trading that's suchturns most people litics kind of horse trading that's suchturns most people off.s kind of horse trading that's suchturns most people off. but that turns most people off. but if we want to stand strongly with ukraine against the with with ukraine against the aggression need aggression of putin, we need american american american money because american military spending is more than china and russia and the uk and france and the next top ten powers all put together . and powers all put together. and they can and should be a force for good in the world. and if cameron can convince trump of that, all power to him. >> james thanks very much indeed. summarisation.

us. anyway, we'll be debating whether foreign office is whether the foreign office is too. well, they say elitist. it's not elitist. it's talking about, it put its big about, is it? has it put its big foot top of everybody in the foot on top of everybody in the world? and does everybody hate the foreign office because of all debating all of that? we're debating that. another that. you see, it's another thing why should you know thing that why should you know what it is? >> it's another thing. >> it's another thing. >> it's another one of these arguments says why arguments that says why you shouldn't be proud to be british. that's what british. basically, that's what it right , and british. basically, that's what it right, and if that's not it is, right, and if that's not me, that's only me telling you what the theory is about this. they're putting the boot into the office, rightly the foreign office, rightly or wrongly,

i >> right. some of the uk's most senior diplomats have recommended reducing the number of colonial paintings in the foreign office to try and modernise it. >> okay , so a report by senior >> okay, so a report by senior officials said the foreign office is somewhat elitist and rooted in the past. so is it

joining us now to discuss all of this anti—race , activist, a this anti—race, activist, a manhattan and royal historian and broadcaster, rafe heydel—mankoo . rafe. do you see heydel—mankoo. rafe. do you see what they're getting at here? do you see why why , why the you see why why, why the accusation is being levelled? >> look, a bit of interior decorating isn't going to solve the foreign office's woes. let's get that straight. you know, the mandarins who wrote this report into the problems that the foreign office don't seem to realise that they themselves are the problem . because for the the problem. because for the past quarter of a century, our institutions have been run by people who actually loathe britain , who are embarrassed by britain, who are embarrassed by our history and any expression or pride or patriotism. we've had. essentially a long march through the institutions, and it's one that has completely captured all of our institutions and the people who are now in place are a new elites, but they are a progressive, liberal elite, not the sort of elites we think about of old conservative chaps going eton so forth

chaps going to eton and so forth . the new elites that occupy these buildings bear no resemblance to the generations who built them and ran them for years . they're actually cuckoos years. they're actually cuckoos in the nest. and in the case of the foreign office of course, the foreign office of course, the rot sets in much earlier. i mean, always been ashamed the rot sets in much earlier. i m

britain invented the modern world, and the fact that there are so many democracies around the world is precisely because of empire . of the british empire. >> eamonn, what would you see wrong with rafe argument there, well, i actually agree with the first point. so we're doing better. rafe we're starting to find ways that we can agree. not always, but sometimes your first point about changing paintings, solving the problems of the foreign office. i agree it won't solve all the problems with the foreign office, but it will help with, inclusivity. it will help with, inclusivity. it will help with making sure that anyone that comes into that office isn't , feeling kind of isn't, feeling kind of dehumanised because of paintings that remind them of subjugation and murder and rape of the past. right. so it's about that inclusivity. this is why it's really important to change, paintings. will it make a difference overall in terms of the issues that they need to deal with and helping our country? no, but it will help with inclusivity . that's an

with inclusivity. that's an aside. in terms of you saying that, it's run by elitists. well, it is most organisations and most departments are elitism is centred around superiority in terms of equality or sorry qualities and, skills . right. so qualities and, skills. right. so i think it's safe to say eamonns here today because of his skills. right. he would technically, one could argue he is superior in his field. so every department in life, every institution that we have in britain is run by elitism. so i actually don't have a problem with that. the reason why i have an issue is because when we decide to be elitist, for those that aren't white, we connect those things because it's just a fact. elitism is superiority , fact. elitism is superiority, which connects to british superiority, which connects or is associated with the british empire and the british empire with its superiority is connected to the subjugation and exploitation, rape, torture and murder of many people around the

world. so when we talk about elitism, we're kind of talking about two separate issues. we've got a superior set of people with skills and qualities, which is good thing in order to help is a good thing in order to help us thrive. and then you've also got that elitism, which basically lacks diversity in thought and the reason why we need diversity in thought, in regards to the foreign office, is because they deal with so many different types of communities, so many different types people, many types of people, so many different thoughts. types of people, so many diffright thoughts. types of people, so many diffright spent, thoughts. types of people, so many diffright spent, knowrghts. types of people, so many diffright spent, know and.. types of people, so many diffright spent, know and look, >> right spent, know and look, i don't disagree. be don't disagree. nobody should be dehumanise and nobody should be feeling when feeling subjugated when they step the foreign office. step into the foreign office. but wouldn't you prefer the foreign that's not what foreign office? that's not what you're saying. >> no, no, no, i am, i just want >> no, no, no, i am, ijust want i'm so that you've, i'm so glad that you've, validated just validated my point. i just wanted to say, imagine walking into gb news right and you into gb news right now, and you saw, like , pictures on the wall saw, like, pictures on the wall of, women like, of, like, women being, like, either beaten or or kind of, foreign office. >> and to be, to be honest, i mean, there's plenty of minority issues i can gripe about. >> sorry. can i just finish? i'm just giving an example of

just giving you an example of what would be like walk what it would be like to walk into of office where into some type of office where you gender, race, you are, your gender, your race, your demeaned , your age is, demeaned, belittled, used as a as a means to give pride to others whilst you and your people have suffered. you probably feel some type of way at that point. >> and i hear that point. nobody should be subjugated. but wouldn't it better if the wouldn't it be better if the foreign spending that foreign office was spending that money energy, that on money that energy, that focus on perhaps tackling modern slavery, the issues we've got in china where there are uighurs being persecuted by the chinese, that would be surely under the foreign office's jurisdiction. rafe heydel—mankoo, don't you think? better things think? there are better things to spending their time to be spending their time and energy to be spending their time and eneabsolutely . i don't think >> absolutely. i don't think imani has actually ever been to the foreign office because, i mean, images she's mean, the images that she's depicting exist. mean, the images that she's dmean,g exist. mean, the images that she's dmean, the exist. mean, the images that she's dmean, the fact exist. mean, the images that she's dmean, the fact is, exist. mean, the images that she's dmean, the fact is, these (ist. mean, the images that she's dmean, the fact is, these are i mean, the fact is, these are these are wonderful works of art created by a jewish huguenot descendant of two suppressed minorities who escaped to britain for a better life as refugees , these celebrate refugees, these celebrate actually the history of britain

bringing, bringing itself museum state. may i please finish my museum? thank you so much. and just like it celebrates britain, actually , you know, bringing the actually, you know, bringing the bringing the many of the world's countries up to the level where they joined the league of nafions they joined the league of nations after , after the first nations after, after the first world war. and so it's a celebration, actually , of celebration, actually, of britain playing its part in improving the world, creating democracies around the world and creating system where actually creating a system where actually we can have the sort of diplomacy rather than war, okay, that we have at the moment time. and what are we saying? are we saying that ambassadors are too are past are too fragile to walk past their painting ? james cleverly, their painting? james cleverly, you just said that. may i please finish my point? you've had a long time to speak. i'm terribly sorry. come on, some of you. >> you've had more time than me. >> you've had more time than me. >> both have say. >> so you're both have your say. don't make don't worry. we'll make sure. >> so and james >> thank you so much. and james cleverly was asked about this because those because he walked past those paintings with the former president of south africa. and paintings with the former pre said it of south africa. and paintings with the former presaid neitheruth africa. and paintings with the former presaid neither of| africa. and paintings with the former pre said neither of them a. and

paintings with the former pre said neither of them werej he said neither of them were bothered by any of this. you know, when the state know, when the when the state opening of parliament happens every parliament, the every year in parliament, the french has to sit french ambassador has to sit underneath a painting of waterloo, another waterloo, looking at another painting of trafalgar. i mean, come are more come on, there are much more important pressing issues around the world. the chinese and the russians will be laughing at us, strong, confident nations don't constantly navel gaze and beat themselves up about their past that they need to look forward and be champions for what britain is best at. >> were fireworks behind >> there were fireworks behind you there. not sure what you there. i'm not sure what that about. eamonn. was that was all about. eamonn. was this agreed a this because you agreed on a point were thumbs point there? there were thumbs up the was up and then the fire. it was like moved. like the earth moved. >> you realising that. >> thank you for realising that. i to distract anyone i didn't want to distract anyone from your point. rafe. you made a that agreed with a valid point that i agreed with and i my thumbs up and i saw and i put my thumbs up and i saw fireworks and really fireworks and i got really excited. fireworks, excited. i do like fireworks, i do apologise, make a valid do apologise, you make a valid point. i don't disagree with you. there more you. there are far more important things than painting skies, think we can all skies, and i think we can all agree however, i also agree with that. however, i also say that paintings are really important. i just want to make

two really quick points. i know we're running time. it's we're running out of time. it's not about pride, having not about pride, or having a problem with your pride. pride is really important for self—esteem, for every human being, for every community. pride is so important. and that's why i need pride as a black person. so when i walk into an office, i don't want your british pride to diminish mine . and that is what i'm here mine. and that is what i'm here to talk about. rafe you have your pride, sir. but if your pride diminishes my pride. if you want to hold on to statues, paintings and whatever, artefacts you stole during the 50 or. sorry, the 50 countries in africa that you colonised. if you want to steal things. these are the things that give you your self esteem. if these are the things that's giving you your pride, then now we have a problem, guys, because now that's bitterness pride. that's bitterness and pride. >> you're reminding we've >> and you're reminding we've been have on been proud to have you both on this morning. both this morning. thank you both very indeed. we'll say very much indeed. we'll say thank good morning. thank you. and good morning. thank very much indeed. thank you very much indeed. and your this very ,

shortly. one of the things there's a lot of politicians and there's a lot of politicians and there's a lot of politicians and there's a lot of reports that have been caught up in a sixteen scandal at, at westminster, and this , alex has called a honey this, alex has called a honey trap scandal, so the chief political correspondent at the bbc, henry zeifman, and he says he was approached, through all of this as well . of this as well. >> and just to quote nadine dorries, she says, it makes you wonder why tory high command is so protective of politician so protective of a politician whose attributes and achievements in westminster amount little . william amount to very little. william wragg is the man who's been held responsible setting responsible for setting this. he's also deputy chairman. >> well, he stood down last night. oh he did. that's right. he did. yes. >> right. >> right. >> so i mean, look, i think this is a really interesting topic to talk and i do think the talk about. and i do think the press speaking enough talk about. and i do think the press it. speaking enough talk about. and i do think the press it. so speaking enough talk about. and i do think the press it. so i'm speaking enough talk about. and i do think the press it. so i'm reallying enough about it. so i'm really pleased we are because there is there has of scandal, and has been a lot of scandal, and it tory it always seems to be the tory government and government coming out and backing and backing them or backing and backing them or backing quite backing these mps. and quite frankly, whole honey

frankly, this, this whole honey trap scandal as it's being called to have jeremy hunt come out and say, oh, i think he's very brave. i mean , let's not very brave. i mean, let's not remember. let's just remember william was not the william wragg was not the whistleblower. it was actually luke mp, who was the luke evans mp, who was the whistleblower. so they're protecting a that that protecting a man that that really was sitting on his laurels while this was all unfolding . unfolding. >> nadine dorries nadine dorries has been good about this today. she's just texted as she's watching the program. good morning she's saying morning nadine. and she's saying this is to keep this rag story is going to keep unfolding. on her ex account unfolding. and on her ex account today, she's saying wragg was no stranger to setting career ending honey traps. as i detail in her tweet, she says the big spender at westminster always throwing parties, buying large , throwing parties, buying large, expensive runs. what's the real reason? number 10. protecting him. >> yeah. well this is a good a good point. and i think what nadine is saying is that, i mean, this is a guy, by the way, who told boris to stand down due to, know, not with upholding to, you know, not with upholding parliamentarypincher to, you know, not with upholding

parliamentary pincher groping >> and chris pincher groping allegations and all of that. >> exactly. partygate. i think. yeah. nadine is basically saying that that look , this is a this that that look, this is a this is this there's more there's more to come here. you haven't seen you haven't seen the bottom of the barrel. >> it's going >> and i think it's going further food chain. i further up the food chain. i think issue. and think that's the issue. and i think that's the issue. and i think trying blanket think that's the issue. and i thany trying blanket think that's the issue. and i thany further,rying blanket think that's the issue. and i th any further, flames. blanket think that's the issue. and i th any further, flames. they're it any further, flames. they're trying blanket over it, trying to put a blanket over it, you can read all the juicy details nadine's column in details in nadine's column in the mail today, page 17 on that one. >> clara was talking to an mp, this week, and quite adept. >> and he was. we were just talking socially about being an mp and staying while they read bills . and basically the only bills. and basically the only thing that you have to do in the house, you could you could be at home talking about working from home, work at home, home, you could work at home, they read bills, they could read these bills, they could read these bills, they vote with press they could vote with press a button for no, no, no, no. they could, don't . right. could, but they don't. right. and so old and he says, it's so old boy, you know, it's about it's anti—woman. it's very pro man . anti—woman. it's very pro man. and basically all there is to do throughout your day is to drink. so people drink? no, they drink

need to know that when they're when they're a member of parliament, when they're sitting in parliament, when they are drawing up bills, when they're going to vote on bills, they should be voting for the people that elected them in their constituency . constituency. >> your political heroes are. but i mean, if you look at a lot of the big successful politicians in recent years, most of them have struggled to get time. when get seats for a long time. when you blair, you think you think about blair, you think about i'm pretty sure it was the case for, well, i wish blair had struggled a more he struggled a bit more before he got seat. anyway, no connection. >> yeah, with sawbridge, did he? >> yeah, with sawbridge, did he? >> rishi sunak >> i don't know if rishi sunak got richmond got any connection to richmond in they you got any connection to richmond in these they you got any connection to richmond in these people ey you got any connection to richmond in these people often you got any connection to richmond in these people often have to know, these people often have to be moved to seats where they've got. >> that's what i've just said. >> that's what i've just said. >> what i'm just saying we'd lose out on a lot of our previous leaders. lose out on a lot of our previoui leaders. lose out on a lot of our previoui leade|think that's a >> oh, i don't think that's a big honest you, big loss, to be honest with you, isabel. know, they isabel. i think you know, they need through ranks isabel. i think you know, they need work through ranks isabel. i think you know, they need work theirough ranks isabel. i think you know, they need work their way| ranks isabel. i think you know, they need work their way up, ranks work, work their way up, you know, try get grips know, and try and get to grips with country . and do you with the country. and do you know what else that would actually for actually help? voting for general elections? because now people the

people tend to vote for the party instead of locally. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i think we're i totally agree with you, claire. the system stinks and some stage we're going to have to reform the system . yeah. that that deals system. yeah. that that deals with westminster. and whether it's five years or whether it should be more than that and the business that they put ministers in, they suddenly one minute isabel's the for isabel's the minister for defence they well, defence and then they say, well, we of her, we put eamonn we got rid of her, we put eamonn and but what and as minister. yeah, but what do about that? you know, do i know about that? you know, and journalists us and then journalists like us interview can't interview them and they can't answer after this

complicated. but let's hope that these people are held accountable supporting accountable for supporting him in actions in the coming in his actions in the coming days and weeks, oliver, there are questions , though, to be are questions, though, to be asked how was able to asked about how he was able to be out and about, threatening this woman given that he had been released on bail, accused of having threatened her with with assaults, and also with death. the greater manchester police have referred themselves to the watchdog over all of this, but there will also be questions about how he has entered the uk , how he's been entered the uk, how he's been able to stay here. it seems as though, as you say, comparisons being made with abdul ezedi and a lot of people very frustrated that folks like this are in our country . country. >> isabel, these incidents leave us asking more questions than they answer and let's, you they do answer and let's, you know, every three days, statistically, we lose female statistically, we lose a female in country to an act of in this country to an act of violence at the hands of a former male partner or current partner. they are horrifying statistics, of which none of us should be proud of, and we should be proud of, and we

should be proud of, and we should be doing everything we can to bring that to the attention of the government, quite rightly , people are asking quite rightly, people are asking serious questions who this serious questions as to who this individual he get individual is. how did he get into country? what were the into the country? what were the vetting he went vetting levels that he went through? ultimately we sit through? and ultimately we sit here to make sense here today trying to make sense of of sense of this of this sense of sense of this all, let's look at the all, but let's look at the criminal justice system, we have to say has potentially failed this lady left a child this poor lady and left a child without mother, an individual without a mother, an individual who committed an act of an who has committed an act of an assault and threatened to kill this now in this woman is now wanted in connection with that same female's i don't know female's murder. i don't know what has happen in what more has to happen in society our government and society for our government and our criminal justice and our criminal justice system and our criminal justice system and our services, our policing services, to realise how significant an issue this our society. this is in our society. >> incredibly sad . and although >> incredibly sad. and although the unharmed the the child was unharmed in the pram, now without a mother and you know, it's unclear who the father is , but yeah, if it is father is, but yeah, it if it is this individual , you know, this individual, you know, they're likely to be behind bars. yeah. >> terrible, terrible, terrible situation. yeah. but thank you oliver. thanks for your for your take on things. really appreciate it, to politics now,

the shadow chancellor rachel reeves today, she'll speak. she'll announce a new crackdown on tax tax dodgers. on tax dodging tax dodgers. basically, we're talking about non—doms here. and we're also talking about, big companies which set up businesses in the country but don't pay the proportionate amount of tax. and all of this. and the idea is hit these people and then as they will say, help fund the nhs. well, let's get the thoughts of our political correspondent katherine forster, who joins us from westminster. >> good morning to you, catherine, no coincidence that the tories stole her non—dom policy and she's had to come up with another plan to plug these pledges that she's made. will this work? because the tories have said they've tried 200 measures to claw back tax that is owed. it's not as simple as that. >> yes. it's very easy to say , >> yes. it's very easy to say, isn't it, that we'll crack down on tax avoidance and evasion. and in fact , it's the sort of and in fact, it's the sort of thing that incoming governments do tend to promise. but it is,

as you say, much, much easier said than done. that's something that paul johnston of the institute from fiscal of fiscal studies has been saying. it's very easy to throw these numbers out there. but the truth is, they don't know how much it will raise , but at least they're raise, but at least they're trying. so there's a couple of things going on here. first of all, they're spending an additional, think, 550 million additional, i think, 550 million to on, several hundred to hmrc on, several hundred thousand compliance officers, with a view to cracking down on tax dodging. effectively, they're saying that they hope that that will bring in an extra 5 billion a year by the end of the next parliament. and then attached to that, they are also cracking down on non—doms . now, cracking down on non—doms. now, as you mentioned, that was a plan that they've had for a long time to abolish non—dom status. jeremy hunt, the chancellor, came along and nicked that just a few weeks ago. but labour are

still saying that the conservatives plan still has loopholes that can save people huge amounts of money in the next year, or two, and they are going to come down hard on those . they say that will bring in another 2 billion or so. now the money they say that they're going to save, some of that money is earmarked for free breakfast clubs . some of it is breakfast clubs. some of it is earmarked for, more gp appointments, some of it is just to be kept back for, for other things. but i think worth noting that whoever is in power after the next general election , there the next general election, there is not a lot of money around national debt is huge. we've been on massive spending sprees, war in ukraine, covid funding , war in ukraine, covid funding, people's energy bills. so there are going to be very, very difficult decisions for the next government around tax and spending, no matter who is in power . power. >> okay, catherine, thanks very much indeed, other news, let's

bnng much indeed, other news, let's bring you up to date with what's happening in the time 8:10, the post office horizon public inquiry resumes today. campaigner alan bates, he'll make his first appearance. he's calling for bonuses paid to bosses to be clawed back. the inquiry has been probing the circumstances that led to the post office to wrongly prosecute more than 900 subpostmasters, the foreign secretary, lord cameron, has met donald trump at his mar a lago residence in florida before holding talks with the us secretary of state, antony blinken. >> the former president and lord cameron discussed the war in ukraine, nato and the middle east, and it is the first summit between a senior government minister and the former president since he left office in 2021. >> campaigners are calling for the government to ban 25 pesticides which contain forever chemicals found in common british fruits, vegetables and spices. they have prompted alarm

your point is that we're not taking it seriously enough. and |, taking it seriously enough. and i, i tend to agree with you. i think, i think people who have had very reasonable arguments about migration and illegal immigration and say, well, you can't do this or that to people. they're not really looking at the figures. and if you're looking at 4 or 5000 per week and arriving in the country and all the people that have arrived so far, however sad their story is, however awful things are, it's really, really got to the point of no return. >> well, you know, the figures aren't quite that at the aren't quite like that at the weekends, but certainly it is the it's the students legally coming country that coming into this country that make the majority of make up the majority of immigration figures, legal immigration figures, legal immigration we immigration figures. but do we really get to grips with that? and, you know, here we are with habiba masoom on the run, one of these people that has come into these people that has come into the through that legal the country through that legal route. do we need to look at all of that? >> e“- e yours is that >> let us know. yours is that being blase about the whole thing, illegal people thing, whether, illegal people entering whether entering the country or whether illegal people entering the country? what is the answer to

you the program . it's still you on the program. it's still turns me cold remembering that moment that i found out operation bridge was operation forth bridge was coming into play. that was to say that all the plans that the broadcasters and indeed the civil servants and the royal family all the courtiers had family and all the courtiers had in place was being enacted in place was was being enacted because philip had died because prince philip had died and it was the first, you know, major royal death that we had had in an incredibly long time. do you remember where you were when you heard the news three years ago today? >> i was actually in the market in henley on thames buying some, buying some apples . so not not buying some apples. so not not in a very dramatic place. but i do remember the funeral very, very well, i think i think we all do because it was so poignant and it was, i think it was the queen followed her government's covid restrictions. so it was very, very pared down and also just to let eamonn know he was lord high admiral prince philip. there we go.

>> thank you. yeah, very senior title, isn't it, lord high admiral. and he could and he could have gone all the way with his, with his naval career. but but he put that to one side, didn't he. >> well, he had to when, the queen's father became really ill and he was, he was, on service in malta . and he realised then in malta. and he realised then that his naval days were going to be over and that he really had to, you know, had to do what, what he was destined to do, which was support his wife, the queen, as monarch. >> ingrid, tell me about i mean, we talked about his military career there. so he was used to giving and taking orders there. and did he take orders in the royal household or did he make the orders? >> well, what happened was philip started to make the orders because he saw that the household was run in a very inefficient way, and he was extremely efficient man. and he

wanted things to run really smoothly. so, he became a little bit unpopular because he started making quite sweeping changes within the royal household to make it more, more efficient. and it wasn't always popular with with the sort of old established members of, of the staff that were there . staff that were there. >> great love story between the pair, though, and certainly the queen elizabeth ii was was madly in love with him, and i suppose what they had in common, apart from sort of both being aristocratic and royal, was a love of the country, a shared love of the country, a shared love of the country, a shared love of the country . love of the country. >> i think they what they really had in common was this amazing sense of duty. and philip always said, you know, my duty is to support my wife as monarch. and that's the position he never wavered from whatever else he did. he was always supporting his wife, the queen and i. and i think that really big sense of

duty was what held them both together over the years. apart from the other obvious things like his sense of humour, his loyalty, and his ability just to get on with life and get and make things happen. he made things happen. >> yeah, he he was. i've been saying this morning in in my opinion, he was very much the enforcer, you know, he was the sheriff in town . he made the sheriff in town. he made the rules and people would come to him for advice. and i'm sure he would tell them what to do in no small way . how would you see would tell them what to do in no small way. how would you see his role in the general family circle ? circle? >> well, in the family circle, he was, in a way, i suppose he was a bit of a house husband, although he would loathe that expression because the queen was was, you know, her. when her father died suddenly in 1952, she was propelled into a position that she hadn't

expected for at least another ten years. so philip had to take over the running of the household. the running of the family, he made the decisions. she 100% agreed with him. and then he got on with it to make of his relationship or how he viewed meghan markle . well, i viewed meghan markle. well, i think prince philip was very canny about people, and he didn't always see bad in them. he tried to see good in them. but i think he just couldn't get away from the fact of the similarities between, meghan and harry and, edward and mrs. simpson. if you like. there are so many similarities there, which is why he used to call her, the duchess of windsor. i mean, not to have face, obviously. we used to call her door d o w what about the relationship? >> that was sometimes fraught,

especially in the early years with our now king? what do you think, prince philip, given what you of and you've you know of him and you've written books about him, would you know of him and you've writte about,; about him, would you know of him and you've writte about, king jt him, would you know of him and you've writte about, king charles's)uld you know of him and you've writte about, king charles's reign make about, king charles's reign so i suppose the so far. and i suppose the challenges the royal family challenges that the royal family are facing. do think he are now facing. do you think he would with this slimmed would agree with this slimmed down , given, you know, down monarchy, given, you know, the and apparent frailty the health and apparent frailty at the moment? >> think would totally >> i think he would totally agree with the slimmed down monarchy, and i think he would be very, very proud of his son. he wasn't always proud of his son. i mean, he was a very tough father and they didn't get along in the in the early years. obviously they did later, but i think he would be really proud of the way that that charles has sort of immediately implemented what he said he was going to do. he said he wanted a slimmed down monarchy, and that's what he's organised. what he's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it;ed. what he's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it isi. what he's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it is a what he's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it is a little what he's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it is a little bit,at he's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it is a little bit, to 1e's now monarchy, and that's what he's orga it is a little bit, to slim|ow got. it is a little bit, to slim down at the moment, perhaps, but he's coping. he just doesn't want burden of too many want the burden of too many royals upon the british taxpayer. >> well, we'll remember him with

fondness today. on this april the 9th, the third anniversary of his passing. ingrid. thank you very much indeed for sharing your thoughts and your opinions with us today. >> thank you. thank you. stay with us. lots more coming your way. claire muldoon and alex armstrong on fire this armstrong have been on fire this morning. we've really enjoyed going

costa del sol, and all down the lower, eastern part of spain, where people in this country thought for their retirement, they would love to go spend the retirement over there. they've worked really, really hard. they've somewhere. let's they've bought somewhere. let's go it . perfect climate, go and do it. perfect climate, perfect everything else. and now spain has now said, well, we're actually withdrawing these visas . so that's basically making people having to sell up. but that what they the knock on effect for that is i think people in spain will be able to afford houses now . afford houses now. >> yes. i see what you're saying here. it's like living in a houday here. it's like living in a holiday town or something like that. >> but like hastings or cornwall or someone to sell up, they've already got their property. >> can they not stay there? >> can they not stay there? >> well, they can, but today, 94 out of every hundred visas of this nature are linked to property investments. >> concentrated >> that's concentrated in large cities . so what it's saying as cities. so what it's saying as well is the culture minister, the spokesman for radical the spokesman for the radical left party now in left wing party that's now in residency. last year, the year up on november the 8th, the visas enabled the purchase of 635 worth more than half

635 homes worth more than half ,1 million. so the decision would let the government fight speculative investment. >> you know , i can't be >> yes. you know, i can't be a hypocrite on this because i say to people , lots of people coming to people, lots of people coming here to uk that they're here to the uk that they're pushing up house prices this pushing up house prices in this country and making it impossible for buy home. i'm for me to buy a home. i'm a young 30 year old man. i will struggle to purchase a in struggle to purchase a home in london, of have to london, so i kind of have to sympathise the spanish, on sympathise with the spanish, on this one, because at the end of the day, they need to prioritise their if our own the day, they need to prioritise their can't if our own the day, they need to prioritise their can't buy if our own the day, they need to prioritise their can't buy homes>ur own the day, they need to prioritise their can't buy homes because people can't buy homes because wealthy people wealthy british people are coming here do have coming here and we do have bigger salaries and spanish people, the people, i understand the priorities ation, of doing that. well, brits have a well, the brits have given a huge the spanish economy. >> that's very true. and all that investment not just in tourism, people going tourism, but by people going over spend hard over there to spend their hard earned cash. this pushes them away. think it just it's away. and i think it just it's sort little bit left wing sort of a little bit left wing politics envy here. politics of envy here. >> and i don't think it's of envy because the decision would actually spanish people actually enable spanish people to because there

to buy properties because there were initially speculative investments by russians , chinese investments by russians, chinese and brits. >> there's already i mean, it's so complex because , you know, so complex because, you know, there's huge unemployment in spain. they're not suddenly going magically have enough going to magically have enough cash buy properties just cash to buy properties just because have and cash to buy properties just bthinke have and cash to buy properties just bthink it's have and cash to buy properties just bthink it's a have and cash to buy properties just bthink it's a shameive and cash to buy properties just bthink it's a shame to and cash to buy properties just bthink it's a shame to be and i think it's a shame to be pushing well , also, i look at pushing well, also, i look at your situation and because there's so much foreign investment, china now, particularly, people buying apartments in london, impossible. >> i would look at the situation and say, i mean, unless you've got a minimum of 500 or £600,000, what got a minimum of 500 or £600,000, what the hell do you do in london? >> you know, i'm a born and bred londoner. i was raised in harrow in north—west london. my grandma, she bought her house for £11,000 in harrow and kenton. that house is worth about close to a million. that's an incredible . it's crazy to an incredible. it's crazy to think that i'd even be able to buy a house in my hometown is impossible me, and it's impossible for me, and it's impossible for me, and it's impossible the foreseeable impossible for the foreseeable future. think a really future. i think that's a really sad state that we've got to, and i do sympathise with i do. i do sympathise with countries trying to reverse

that. i understand exactly that. and i understand exactly what put what you're saying. we've put a lot that economy, and there lot into that economy, and there will are made up will be towns that are made up of brits that will suffer severely because they'll have a mass exodus of people. el sol. i sympathise with well. sympathise with them as well. >> furious this ? >> furious about this? >> furious about this? >> yeah, i do get that. >> yeah, i do get that. >> it's impossible now for brits to europe, really in, in to be in europe, really in, in whether it's second or whether it's second homes or tirement let me tirement property. yeah, let me ask what did you make of or ask you, what did you make of or what did you see? i mean, you won't have seen it, but you you will have heard about it. and you watch pictures on our program on those of the program on those pictures of the moon there. if you can, moon eclipse there. if you can, so, so, alex, what did you make of the interest in it? >> oh, i think it was a fascinating series of events that led up to the eclipse. actually but first of all, i'll say that it's beautiful. what a thing to witness, very, very rare. and just to give the audience some perspective on this, dinosaurs never would this, the dinosaurs never would have an eclipse . the moon is have had an eclipse. the moon is now at a position between the earth and the sun, where it's just lifetimes, in human just in our lifetimes, in human existence, this will existence, where this will happen won't the moon

as khalil sama akhtar. and as you say, it's emerged from court documents now that the victim in this murder case was known to masoom and that he was in fact out on bail after being accused of making threats to kill and assaulting her. he pleaded not guilty in in a magistrates in manchester on november the 27th. to these charges. he was given bail despite objections from prosecutors . to this, and as prosecutors. to this, and as part of his bail conditions, he was not to contact miss akhtar . was not to contact miss akhtar. now, as a result of greater manchester police and west yorkshire police having contact with both the prime suspect, masoom and miss akhtar, before her tragic death, they've referred themselves to the police watchdog, the iopc , more police watchdog, the iopc, more information that we got yesterday from police here in bradford in their west yorkshire police headquarters . behind me

police headquarters. behind me was that they've arrested a 23 year old man in connection with assisting an offender that they'd conducted several raids across properties in oldham, burnley and chester , where masum burnley and chester, where masum is known to have links and they've said that they've been combing cctv. it has been four days now on the search, but the last confirmed sighting of masoom was at 342 after he got off a bus near the city centre . off a bus near the city centre. he was seen approaching bradford moor park and after that there's been no sighting. so police are asking people that may have dashcam footage. cctv footage in the area to come forward and they're also appealing directly to taxi drivers as well. they believe he may have got into a taxi on saturday afternoon, paid in cash, and they're asking for any taxi drivers that know of his description that's been out in the media now. he's described as a slim man, an asian man, and we know as well to come forward. and if he's seen a pro , do not

and if he's seen a pro, do not approach him because he may be armed. but to call 999. >> okay, anna, thanks very much indeed. >> and the shadow chancellor, rachel reeves today will announce a new crackdown if she's elected on tax dodgers in a bid to help fund the nhs. >> now, reeves hopes to raise over £5 billion per year by the end of the next parliament, which they would use to tackle nhs waiting lists and fund free school breakfast clubs for every primary school pupil. >> okay, let's get the thoughts of our political correspondent katherine forster on this one. catherine. good morning. us catherine. good morning. tell us more . more. >> yes. good morning, eamonn and isabel. >> yes. good morning, eamonn and isabel . well i think this will isabel. well i think this will appeal to most of the people around the country. you, me, gb news viewers have no choice but to pay our taxes and to pay the taxes that we owe. but that sometimes isn't the case because tax evasion , which is illegal,

tax evasion, which is illegal, tax evasion, which is illegal, tax avoidance, which is legal, there's plenty of people and plenty of companies that simply get away with paying a lot more than they should. so the shadow chancellor, rachel reeves, saying today they're going to spend an extra £550 million if they get elected , of course, and they get elected, of course, and given to the hmrc to hire thousands of compliance officers to help crack down on tax dodging. they estimate that will bnngin dodging. they estimate that will bring in another £5 billion a yean bring in another £5 billion a year, by the end of the next parliament. and linked to that, they're also planning to clamp clamp down on the non—dom status, which of course, was originally , labour pledge that originally, labour pledge that the conservatives have come along and pinched. but labour are still saying that there are loopholes in that system and they reckon they can get back another 2 billion or so through

having stricter rules on that, so all of this i think, will sound very appealing, the money that they say they're going to save, going to fund free breakfast clubs for children in schools, more nhs appointments, some they think will be in reserve. but the problem is, of course, that this is all very much easier said than done. it's the sort of thing that governments tend to say they're going to do , and the reality is going to do, and the reality is that it going to do, and the reality is thatitis going to do, and the reality is that it is not that easy. although the national audit office, i think it's worth saying they have said they think there are £6 billion a year that could realistically be recovered. and let's face it, whoever gets into power after the next election, money is in very, very short supply. so if and it is a big if, they can claw back some of that money. i think that will be welcomed by many people. >> thank you catherine. appreciate it. >> andrew pierce from 9:30, this morning. andrew, what's going to be top of your agenda today?

>> well, obviously in bradford for this shocking twist in the murder that this, young man had been on bail for threatened to kill . so that's terrible. but kill. so that's terrible. but also, we're going to be looking at labour's tax pledge. what timing, isn't it? rachel reeves announcing a big thing on tax avoidance. when angela rayner is still struggling to answer questions or rather, isn't answering questions on whether she did or she didn't pay capital gains tax a few years ago. >> but you know, listen, look, i'm just playing devil's advocate for you. i don't know and i don't care. and how much could she have? how much i understand the principle behind it, but how much if she was to gain how much? i would just like to know. has she gained £1,000, £10,000, £100,000, 1500, £1,500? yeah >> who cares the principle. she's going to be in government, prime minister. she's going to be deputy prime minister. and whether it's 5 million or 5000, you've to pay taxes . you've got to pay your taxes. the real point here, eamonn isn't even whether she should or shouldn't she has she

shouldn't is she been has she been lying since this story broke? what my point. if broke? that's what my point. if i was her position, i'd have i was in her position, i'd have said, think i might have said, i think i might have a problem here. pay it all over. i'd put it to you. >> i put it to you that the system is so complicated for anybody. just even buying and selling house. whatever selling a house. whatever she agreed, eamonn agreed, which is why eamonn people understood and people would have understood and said, understand said, oh, she didn't understand it. i thinki said, oh, she didn't understand it. i think i would have. >> i don't think i would have. so she should have coughed up right the beginning. six right at the beginning. six weeks, with weeks, she's had to deal with this. it's going to go away. this. it's not going to go away. and people think, what's the worst to happen? worst that's going to happen? >> worst? so they're >> what's the worst? so they're elected right? elected into government, right? what's to what's the worst going to happen? she going to pay happen? is she going to pay a penalty for this? what's going to happen? >> no, i suppose time >> no, i suppose every time she tries about people tries to go on about people avoiding finances, avoiding budgets and finances, she the legal advice. >> and i think the fact that sir keir starmer yesterday saying that it was inappropriate for him see this is a former him to see it, this is a former director of public prosecutions. yeah. think the chair of yeah. and i think the chair of the party right when the tory party had it right when he this morning this is he said this morning this is going to tarnish your reputation. >> i'm more >> yeah. what i'm more interested and is the

who she is as a person. and it stars marisa abela, who is amazing. if you've seen a program called industry, she's in that as acting, she's in that and she as acting, she's phenomenal. and criticism has come back on her vocals because she does sing in it. they haven't used amy's vocals. and people are like, you could have just used vocals. they're just used amy's vocals. they're so to replicate, and so hard to replicate, and marissa isn't first. have you seen. i've seen bits of it. i've not seen all of it. i was meant to go last night, but why do you think she replicates? >> how do you think so? >> how do you think so? >> what i've seen, i think, >> from what i've seen, i think, as as an individual, the as a as an individual, the mannerisms and who she is a person. great. but even from the trailer, vocals didn't seem trailer, the vocals didn't seem the when you have the strongest. and when you have people the industry like ray people in the industry like ray and like that, they can and things like that, they can do it is such do that. and i think it is such a skill and a talent to be able to and sing, be as good as to act and sing, be as good as amy white, to be that good, because it's a very specific voice as well. you know, be voice as well. you know, it'd be like to do adele like someone trying to do adele like someone trying to do adele like a very sound like it's a very known sound i think of, i'm thinking, was it the elvis movie with austin austin butler, name? the elvis movie with austin ausaustin:ler, name? the elvis movie with austin ausaustin:ler, and1e? the elvis movie with austin ausaustin:ler, and he was >> austin butler, and he was

absolutely and absolutely nailed it. and then you had queen one, and you you had the queen one, and you had the elton john one. you can do you can. and actually, do it. you can. and actually, sometimes think singing sometimes i think the singing voice is almost more important than acting for these big than the acting for these big singers. amy singers. yeah i saw amy winehouse at isle of wight winehouse at the isle of wight festival well, festival when she was. well, actually, was there actually, i think she was there two years in a row, or for somehow i her two years in a somehow i saw her two years in a row year. she was row and one year. she was sensational. yeah. and were sensational. yeah. and we were all her every step of the all with her every step of the way. the second year way. and the second year everyone each everyone was looking at each other. she clearly drunk. other. she was clearly drunk. yeah. it was, it was really, really shocking. >> quite difficult to watch. >> it was difficult to watch. i think will be a difficult think this will be a difficult watch. suppose, you know, watch. but i suppose, you know, talking whether or not talking about whether or not it's to portray her in the it's fair to portray her in the true of true light. i mean, lots of films made like this. i'm films are made like this. i'm thinking of the one about edith piaf, really troubled as well. >> and i think the thing is, with a lot of these musicians, she was one of the famous, artists who died aged you artists who died aged 27, you know, passed away. know, when she passed away. and the about journey the thing is about their journey is their rise to fame and is that their rise to fame and what they go is never what they go through is never usually it's usually you usually easy. it's usually you know, difficult. so is
