1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondent with us.

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 2: Now, hey Inda, hey head, They're great to speak to

3
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 2: you again.

4
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: What do we know about this blog? Who's been arrested?

5
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: Read the fire bombing.

6
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 2: So he's twenty one years old and in the past

7
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 2: half hour he has been arrested. Counter terror police involved

8
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: in this because the properties that were attacked are linked

9
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 2: to the Prime Minister. Now clearly everyone knows kir Starmer

10
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 2: lives at number ten Downing Street, London. That was not

11
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 2: the address that was initially attacked. It was an arsonal

12
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 2: attempt to basically the porch the front door of what

13
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: was the Starmer family residence in North London place called

14
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: Kentish Town. It's about a four million dollar property. The

15
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: Starmers lived there clearly before they moved into Downing Street,

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: and he won the election last July. So we now

17
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 2: learned that there were three fire incidents in four days

18
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: last week, one at that property which the Starmers have

19
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 2: let out. There is another property apartment in the same

20
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 2: area of North London the Kerr Starmer owns. There was

21
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: a suspicious fire there too, nobody hurt and not a

22
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: huge amount of damage, and a vehicle park in the street,

23
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 2: which is linked to the Starmar family, was also the

24
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: subject of an arson attempt, so counter terror police were

25
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: called in and a twenty one year old man right

26
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: now is in police custody in London.

27
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: Right And I suppose we're all going to be watching

28
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: to see what the motivation here was. What is going

29
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: on with this clamp down on immigration, because it feels

30
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: to me in it if this was coming from the Tories,

31
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 1: it would feel like they breden batter, but it feels

32
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,639
Speaker 1: weird coming from a labor prime minister.

33
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: It does feel very strange because a lot of people

34
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: would say that labor in the certainly under Blair years,

35
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 2: drove immigration into the UK and they felt that this

36
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: was benefiting the economy. Clearly now it is not. It

37
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: is a big talking point on the doorsteps and I

38
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: think a lot of labor politicians are feeling the heat

39
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,639
Speaker 2: because of really poor council results in those elections across

40
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: England last week. And who's benefiting from all of this.

41
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 2: Nigel Farage and Reform UK. Now he has been anti

42
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: immigration from day one. He come up with the slogan

43
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: take back control of our borders, which it's no coincidence

44
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: in Starmar's speech yesterday, he used that exact phrase. So

45
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 2: they're tightening everything up. If you come to the UK

46
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: it will be ten years before you can apply for citizenship.

47
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: Currently it's five. They're going to make a ten and

48
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 2: they're clamping down on everything. Student visas in particular, there

49
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: is a feeling that that system has been absolutely abused

50
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 2: by people coming to the UK coming, not even attending courses,

51
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 2: disappearing others who do stay. Then bringing family members in

52
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: immigration is going to be a big talking point for

53
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: a long time in the UK. Starmer has set his

54
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 2: stall out and he said, I promise you I will

55
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: bring it down. If he doesn't, he won't be back

56
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: in Downing Street in four years time.

57
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: Interesting, Hell, listen, have you been in Warsaw?

58
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: Have you? I'm still here, Yeah, I'm here. We're filming

59
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 2: my TV show this week because there is a huge

60
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 2: presidential election first round voting this weekend across Poland and

61
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 2: it's absolutely fascinating what's going on. So the Prime Minister

62
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: is Donald Tusk, and you'll be seeing a lot more

63
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: of him around Europe, you know, stepping up. He's with

64
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: Starmer and Macron and trying to sort out peace in Ukraine.

65
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 2: There's so much going on Poland. The economy is booming,

66
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: three point two percent growth predicted this year. They're spending

67
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: a lot of money on defense. They're spending nearly five

68
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 2: percent of GDP on defense because they're very worried about

69
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 2: Russia and this presidential election this weekend. The government are

70
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: warning of unprecedented attempts by Russia at election interference. So

71
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 2: it's all going on in Poland.

72
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: Interesting stuff. Hey, Inda, thanks very much, really appreciate it.
