Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-14

[00:00:00]our brilliant reporter, talk reporter Samara Gil. Hi, Samara.

[00:00:03]>> Hello. Hello.

[00:00:04]>> Now, we've been talking a lot about the king being heckled today. Uh, and you were actually there, right?

[00:00:11]>> Oh, I was there.

[00:00:11]>> Well, let's I We're playing this. I make no apologies for playing this again and again because I think it's one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen.

[00:00:19]And how this country has come to this, I do not know. This is just wrong. you know, by all means, you know, you're perfectly entitled uh to be pro Palestine, anti-Israel, all that. You know, you know, you the right to protest. I don't agree with you, but you got the right. But this is taking things too far, isn't it? Watch this.

[00:00:42]>> THY RIVER.

[00:00:52]What's your message to the king Charles?

[00:01:09]>> I always want to like set up a rival group of protesters shouting expensive expensive Palestine. Uh >> why is it free? You know, put a price on it. You know, seriously. Now, you were there though. Yeah. How about free Palestine from Hamas? I mean, let's start with that. But anyway, there's a thought. There's a thought. You were there, though.

[00:01:27]>> I was there. I actually got heckled by those very protesters. They were the most putrid of the bunch because obviously they're there on a weekday when they probably should be at their jobs that they don't have. They haven't got and you know, it's really interesting. One of them went up to me and he said, "Why do you always edit us to make us look bad?" And I'm like, "I don't edit.

[00:01:45]>> I need to edit you."

[00:01:47]>> And then they started heckling me. They started live streaming. I could see one of the very pleasant police officers actually trying to reason with them and just saying, "Hey, uh, please can you just be respectful of this?" And they have, they absolutely don't want to do it. And it just shows you how Gaza that's got really really nothing to do with the United Kingdom has flooded onto our streets like a cess sort of like a cesspit and it's just I don't know. It just left me with a very horrible feeling. I basically got marched away by them. They started with their phones going like this, live streaming into my face, which is fine, but it's just to go and do that to someone who's part of the press is just a little bit torric. I just I don't appreciate how they were >> trying to intimidate you.

[00:02:30]>> Well, they screamed that while there was a beautiful orchestra um playing beside us. There was a really nice procession going on and they totally drowned it out with their horrible, horrible chance.

[00:02:41]It's like they just get away with too much, you know? They really do. They were moving around. It was meant to be a static protest. That's what they were allowed to do. They weren't respecting the police's orders. It's just it just >> Why don't the police arrest some of them? I mean, they're breaking they're breaking the law when they You could hear them there. Free from the river to the sea. When will Palestine be free? Uh that's against the law. I could be arrested now, actually.

[00:03:06]No, seriously, that is against the law.

[00:03:08]That is a call for the annihilation of Israel and the murder of Jews. It is a prescribed chant. They're doing it there. Now, I can see the cops, to be fair, had their hands full. But unless we get to a point where the police start to arrest these people for these hate crime chants that they spew all the time and then lock the bastards up, uh, we are in trouble.

[00:03:32]>> Yeah, I think we are. I can think you could see the sort of pain in the police people's eyes because they want to do something about it. I know we're not on the police's side a lot of the time, but I've got I've spoke to a couple of the officers and they were they were honestly just absolutely appalled by the behavior of the protesters. But weirdly, their hands are tied in this situation.

[00:03:52]There's not much they can do because this very small conglomerate of people has totally overtaken London streets.

[00:03:59]And it's like they're there at every single event, Kev. It's like it's like they're the unwashed and the unemployed.

[00:04:07]There's there's a big pro Palestine demo on Saturday, a sort of opposing demo to the Tommy Robinson demo, the Unite UK protest. So when that pro Palestine protest unfolds, you know, let's call on the police, make some arrests. Don't let them chant jihad and from the rivers of the sea. Get that message across. You do that, you end up in jail. That'll stop all of this. uh because they're letting them get away with it.

[00:04:37]>> I'm really interested to see the potential two-tier policing that will happen on Saturday. I mean, who knows?

[00:04:44]Because what's categorized as something really scary on the right side of politics to what the left is, I do feel like, and we've been banging on about it for a long time, Ke, but there is a two-tier policing that does go on. So, I am hoping that those arrests are made uh to whoever hooligans kind of come out.

[00:05:01]But I think it's just when you go to those protests and you see that, you know, I've been mobbed by people. I've been whacked on the head. No one's been arrested. No one takes any account. No one gets any accountability. Whereas I think on that that protest, if anyone from the other side, the United Kingdom side, gets out of line, they're going to get arrested straight away, as they should be if they're acting completely deborturous. But we we might see a bit of two-tier policing. That's all I'm warning you about there. Yeah, it's uh yeah, the Saturday I think is the big day. Two opposing massive demos in London. The Unite the Kingdom uh demo which is associated with Tommy Robinson, but he's not the only one. A lot of very legitimate people go to that protest, but also there's going to be a big pro Palestine march. I guess the police will have to keep both factions apart. But, uh, at the ProP Palestine march, cops, if you any cops out there, you hear anyone chanting jihad or holding up those posters, uh, death, death to the IDF, arrest them. How about that?

[00:06:05]They're going to carry on. Unless you do, they got to be pleased properly, those demos, don't you think, >> Al? Terror threat currently in the United Kingdom is, I'm pretty sure, the highest it can get or one of the highest levels that it can be. You know, we've had a terrorist attack against the Jewish people, alleged terrorist attack just less than two weeks ago. Uh we've had a litany of different issues there in terms of anti-semitism. We are at boiling point here. And I agree with you. Now it's time I mean we we're both libertarians. We do agree that you know people should have the right to protest.

[00:06:37]People should be able to speak freely.

[00:06:40]But unfortunately there is an incitement element now to what they've been doing.

[00:06:44]>> Yeah. I mean, as you say, the libertarian in me does not want to ban pro Palestine protests. Uh, but if they're going to be like this, if they're going to be full of law breaking and the cops aren't going to do anything about it, you know, I wouldn't die on a hill if they did get banned. Put it that way. Uh, now, uh, what do you make of the psycho drama of the star psycho drama? Uh, fascinating PMQs today. West Streeting only laterally joining the front benches in the House of Commons and we are hearing uh that uh West Reading will resign and launch his challenge tomorrow. Uh before we uh get your take on that uh it was an entertaining PMQs. Chem B not having the time of her life. She she'll hate it when Kama goes. Uh but let's have a look at the Tory leader uh on fine form.

[00:07:39]ing NHS England. Something the prime minister announced 14 months ago. But then I suppose the health secretary has been a bit distracted lately, hasn't he?

[00:07:48]Yeah. Hasn't he? You know, he's chanting now. Why don't you just do your job? Do your job. Even worse, Mr. Speaker, even worse, Mr. Speaker, is what isn't in the gracious speech. There's no point him giving me dirty looks. We all know what he's been up to. We all know. Well, no.

[00:08:08]Even worse, Mr. Speaker, >> I tell you, she is getting good, isn't she? And by the way, when you know that someone like Kem Benedok has defeated the opposition in the comments, you know, with her rhetoric, you know when she's won because there's this moment where they all start talking to each other animatedly and then they go like this and things like that. But when they are reduced, as they were then, to this They're just all sitting there with these sort of fixed chesherat grins.

[00:08:40]That means she just won.

[00:08:41]>> Yeah. I mean, >> that was brilliant actually. It was brilliant.

[00:08:44]>> Yeah. I mean, but she also does have the easiest job in politics. I mean, >> she'll hate it when Starman goes.

[00:08:49]>> Yeah. Exactly. I mean, it's literally like they've served her a perfect volley and she's just been able to get it across the net easily easily. I mean, come on, Kem. I I think it was a really good performance by her, but also she's got a lot to chew on there. I mean, >> yeah, I love I love to say to to West he's chanting away there. Do your job.

[00:09:12]>> Well, it looks as if uh to get back to streeting, uh it looks as if uh he won't be doing his job for much longer. Word is he'll resign tomorrow and launch his official challenge to Star's stupifying leadership. And at that point, others may join the frey, potentially Ed Milliband, horror of horrors.

[00:09:32]>> Uh, and others, uh, what do you reckon?

[00:09:35]>> I think it's been really interesting for streeting because, you know, obviously he's now at the center of the sort of succession line chatter along Westminster. All I could hear when I was just sort of around there today was talk of him, Millerand, and Starmmer. Uh, Raina's name didn't come up much, and neither did Burnham's. Uh that that's just the whispering of what's going on.

[00:09:55]But look, there was a brutal 16minute showdown this morning. Uh it lasted all of Yeah. about 15 16 minutes.

[00:10:03]>> 16 minutes.

[00:10:04]>> He came out smirk. He gave a smile to the press pack, which was interesting.

[00:10:08]Uh and then walked off, which was different from his sort of thundery glare that he gave yesterday as he walked out because he wasn't granted a meeting with Star, which is what he wanted.

[00:10:19]Why he hasn't jumped so quickly is really because I mean there is well no I think well there's that Westminster saying of he who wields the knife um he doesn't wear the crown and that is the problem there with leadership challenges usually the one that initiates it actually doesn't end up being the leader but in this position and it did happen to that I was looking through my notes it happened to thatcher in 1975 where she did challenge and destroy uh one of her opponents, Ted Heath. It's quite interesting that there has been precedent for the challenger to actually win.

[00:10:56]>> Exactly. I I think the only reason that Wes has uh not come forward so far is he's got a yellow streak up his back, the the 10 miles wide, but he's finally been brought to the They're always cowards. Politicians, they're always cowards. Uh but he's been brought to the point where he is going to move. And I reckon then uh in all there's two things that could happen. This could happen tomorrow. Uh if Streeting launches his move and he's got 81 supporters because he can't lodge an official challenge unless he's got 81 MPs behind him. The word is he has. So if he does that, the potential is that the prime minister will resign and set out a timetable uh for his departure, which would allow Andy Burnham to get into parliament in time for an election. Uh but if Wes succeeds in trying to get the ball rolling right away, in other words, Burnham uh cannot get involved because he won't have time to get this seat that he needs. Uh then I I suspect I fear uh terrifyingly Ed Milliband will throw his hat in the ring and Ed Milliban will win.

[00:12:12]>> I think it's a very good theory. I mean, I think that unfortunately this Burnham fantasy politics is not the way the party should go considering they're hemorrhaging Labour votes every single day. They're like bleeding out like they've got some sort of skin issue.

[00:12:29]It's uh to use Kemmy Benox's own turn of phrase that she used at the dispatch box today. She said, you know, K Dharma is in office but not in power. And that's true. he is a a walking dead man at this point or and and he doesn't have any power that he can really cling on to here. So, it's really just about who's actually going to have the gumption and the gusto as you said to pull the plug and say, "No, I'm challenging you." I mean, this man loves a process. That's all he was banging on about yesterday.

[00:12:57]It's the process. It's the process. It's like, yes, you human rights lawyer, that's all you want is a process to get you out. So that's why uh he refused to discuss his own predicament at the cabinet meeting two days ago uh because he said we can't discuss the challenge to my leadership because there hasn't officially been one. The process has not been started. Yes, >> he's actually got a point. He's actually >> he's he's got a point.

[00:13:22]>> But he's obsessed with process. Well, he's been able to spin this and I think his obsession with process will be the thing that actually ends up uh removing him because politicians really do or good politicians work on feeling. People with actual political prowess do do that and I think and I think at least Wes is working towards the actual feeling of the public. The issue with Wes is that I think he's he would be popular with the Labour voter but not not with the >> not with the MPs.

[00:13:50]>> Not with the MPs and not with Labour party members. So yeah, I think >> I've just also got this idea. I mean Andy Bernham to be honest with you strutting around. I'm the king of the north. You know, he's turning into a comedy figure. There's this great drama unfolding. Oh, Street resign. Maybe Ed Milliban will come in. Bridget Phillips and maybe Meanwhile, you know that Andy Burnham's getting off trains, getting on buses. Hello. I'm I'm I'm here. I'm here. Yeah, mate. Yeah, you But you're not at the races, are you? Well, he's doing everything but actually doing an interview to the media. Every single headline I read, Andy Burnham's just dropped out of a conference he was meant to go to in London. Andy Bernham was meant to go and open this tomorrow and he's not going anymore. It's like he's actually shying away from the public and waiting far too much in the shadows. Uh, and he's getting forgotten about. And again, I mean, to to state the blaring obvious, if there was a bi-election, there is no such thing as a safe labor seat in this country anymore. Well, what could happen with old comedy figure Burnham uh is this uh he could quit the uh mayor in he could quit as Manchester mayor and find himself an alleged safe seat. As you say, there's no such thing as a safe labor seat here these days.

[00:15:07]uh he could then Manchester lose the subsequent election the resultant mayoral election in so that goes to reform UK then he doesn't get voted in in the safe seat uh and we'll see you on the dole queue Andy >> that's actually the most likely option because we >> I really hope that happens because he's so entitled about this he's strutting around as if he's some sort of political colossus you go up to the north, you know, king of the north. Well, they don't like their king very much. He's not that popular up north. And when he was in government, he was in Gordon Brown's cabinet. He was the health secretary. He's absolutely crap. He was useless. He's useless. And a lot of people say he hasn't been much cop in Manchester either. So, I don't know why we're crowning this guy as if he's the colossus we need, cuz he isn't. Before you go, I got to ask you about this Nigel Farage situation. He is now being officially investigated by the parliamentary standards office uh for this 5 million pound gift >> he was given by the Thailand based Bitcoin billionaire Christopher Harbornne. Yeah.

[00:16:24]>> Uh before he came back into parliament.

[00:16:26]Now at the time uh when he received this 5 million quid uh Nigel Farage's case is I don't have to talk to parliament about this. I was not an MP then. I wasn't in parliament.

[00:16:38]Uh there is a case saying that if you received any substantial gift or donation within a year of entering parliament then it is relevant. But he will say it isn't. Uh, and also he says, "Well, look, this five, the reason Mr. Harbaugh gave me £5 million is so that I can pay for the security and protection that I need because the state won't provide me with that even though he is probably uh the most vulnerable uh target politically out there."

[00:17:13]>> He's a huge target and I do really feel for him because the government actually isn't funding a lot of his security. I believe they cut back 75% of his security at one point and that was actually shortly after the death of Charlie Kirk. So I think I think he needs this money for his security. I don't think he's actually just saying that. Uh the investigation I mean they're looking for anything to pin this guy. I think >> I >> it's not a good look. It's not a good look. It's like who is paying for you?

[00:17:45]Like what's going on here? I I can understand the questions around it. Mhm.

[00:17:49]Yeah. But but uh you know obviously Reform UK and its supporters are saying this is an establishment stitch up to undermine uh Nigel Farage just as he's on the up after last week's local elections the triumph of reform UK there. But I had Jack Elson on the Sun's political editor earlier and he said yeah it's almost certainly that it is almost certainly an establishment bid to undermine Ferrari. Totally. But Jack went on to say but I got bad news. is it ain't going to work. Uh it it won't affect Faraj.

[00:18:22]>> It didn't puncture his results in the slightest in the general election. The anti-semitism claims against Zack Palansky really did hurt the Greens and now you can see where people kind of care about things. I think there's also an air of in this country people get keep getting penalized for money related issues and I think Trump Farage Freudian slip there does represent a more aspirational version of Britain but look I mean we had law Ferrari his partner in studio over the weekend she was on with Alex Phillips they discussed the firebombing that happened to his house that then led to the donation afterwards or at least that's what's being said you know I've had one time when I was reporting Farage took me aside for private conversation and his security like had to be I mean he really does have insane security.

[00:19:12]They have to be around. No, that's what I'm saying. Like he needs to be that protected. They were they were basically waiting there within within a meter of us cuz I'm such a dangerous individual to talk.

[00:19:22]>> Yeah. Yeah. That that security was especially for you.

[00:19:26]>> It's all right lad. She's gone now. You can go for a pike.

[00:19:29]>> Exactly. But I mean, when you do see um the way that he's unprotected by the government and that he needs private protection, you can understand why this is a thing. And he says that this 5 million will cover him for the rest of his life.

[00:19:41]>> Yeah. Uh so I don't think it'll touch him, but let me know what you think.

[00:19:46]Should Nigel Farage be investigated for this 5 million? What do you think about him receiving that 03444991000?
