1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: To Britain. We go into Brady, very good money to you. 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 2: Good morning, Mike, got to speak to him and you too. 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: And the suite that Sakia is running, it's going to 4 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: get worse before it gets bita we get a little 5 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,560 Speaker 1: what chance. We've got some text talking. 6 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: Here one percent. Yes, so we've had a public holiday today, 7 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 2: but all of the papers here are full of what 8 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 2: he will say in the morning when he makes this speech. 9 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 2: I think what the Prime Minister is doing is laying 10 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 2: the ground for inevitable tax rises. We're told that he 11 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 2: has inherited a forty four billion dollar black hole in 12 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,639 Speaker 2: the UK public finances, and he's going to use the 13 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: phrase rubble and ruin that he inherited from the Conservatives 14 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: after fourteen years. Rubble and ruin is what he has 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 2: been given to deal with. So I think inevitably the 16 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: budget that's coming in October, Rachel Reeves is now Britain's chancellor, 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: first female Chancellor of the Exchequer. Here, I think taxes 18 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,959 Speaker 2: will be going up. And this speech later today it's 19 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: a big deal because he's effectively laying the ground out 20 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: as to how we going to deal with all the problems. 21 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: How much political capital, will he boon avet's the case. 22 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 2: I think it's early days, but you're right there is 23 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: a risk. But he is also going to say that 24 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: it's going to take ten years to fix Britain. So 25 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: anyone who thinks he is a one term prime minister, 26 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: I think he's also setting out his stall that he 27 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: wants to be re elected. It's going to take ten 28 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: years to fix all the problems. And I mean everywhere 29 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: you look like there are issues across Britain. The country 30 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: is broken, from the potholes in the roads to the 31 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 2: rivers you can't swim in because of the sewage discharges. 32 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: Absolutely every aspect of British life needs fixing and that's 33 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: going to take money. And forty four billion dollars of 34 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: a black hole. I mean that's before we even get 35 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: our heads back above water. So I think there will 36 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: be tough tax rises and big decisions coming. But you're right, 37 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: he runs the risk that people will immediately turn around 38 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: and say, oh, here's the guy who pledged during the 39 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: election campaign that he wouldn't put up taxes and within 40 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: two months of getting in it's exactly what he's doing. 41 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: Who comes beckheham As in regards the Tory leader given 42 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: this sort of an a process at the moment, Well. 43 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: They're fighting amongst themselves really to see who will be 44 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: the leader, and everything i'm hearing in Westminster pretty battel 45 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: seems to be a front runner. Kenny Badanok absolutely wants 46 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: to be leader at some stage. James Cleverly is riding 47 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: quite high former Homeman Foreign Secretary. But I think the 48 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: difficulty the Conservatives have is there's not that many of 49 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 2: them and if you get the leadership now, in all honesty, 50 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: the party is a basket case at the moment. Are 51 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: you likely to see out another five years as opposition 52 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: leader leader of the opposition and then take on Starmer 53 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty nine. So I think whoever gets that 54 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: at the moment will be an interim leader of the Conservatives, 55 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 2: teeing it up for someone else to come in. But look, 56 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 2: they will take lots of potshots at Starmer in the 57 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 2: next twenty four hours for this speech, But I think 58 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 2: he's just telling everyone what we already know, that rubble 59 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 2: and ruin is what he's got to deal with. 60 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: If you held a poll, what's the result for Kirsty 61 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: Alsop They with her or Againna, I'm. 62 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 2: Absolutely with her, and I think anyone who's followed this story, 63 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: so if anyone hasn't seen this. A week ago, she 64 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: announced on social media that she'd allowed her fifteen year 65 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 2: old son to go interrailing with his sixteen year old 66 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: mate across Europe for three weeks on a company, just 67 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: the two boys, and they successfully did it. They got 68 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: back home and they went to London, to Paris, to Amsterdam, 69 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: to Berlin. They went all over. They ended up in 70 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: the south of France, Barcelona, into Spain and then back 71 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 2: to the UK. Now, she proudly put that out on 72 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: social media, got a lot of backlash. What's happened today? 73 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: It turns out that Social Services have had a complaint, 74 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: so this has been she believes maliciously done. Someone who 75 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 2: doesn't like her has rung the local council and complained 76 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 2: to Social Services under a child welfare complaint and it's 77 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: being investigated. So she's absolutely split public opinion. You're right, 78 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 2: but I think good luck to her. My young lad sixteen, 79 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 2: he's just come back from a week in Ireland with 80 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: my parents and he had the time of his life 81 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 2: and he brought a sixteen year old mate with him, 82 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 2: and I know it's different that we escorted him to 83 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: the airport as he throw in London and my parents 84 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: went and picked them up in Dublin bus. It gives 85 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 2: young people confidence and at some stage we need to 86 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 2: cut those baby strings. 87 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Couldn't agree more that our kids were flying 88 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: from a very young age by themselves. In this country. 89 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: We stick little tags on their arms and they get 90 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: looked out above the earline, but they always made it 91 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: and they always came back. Now, spinn Goren Erickson unwell 92 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: for about a year, a year and a half or thereabouts. 93 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: Where does he sit in the penels around the annals 94 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: of history there? 95 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: And well, I think he will go down as well 96 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: as historic football manager for England because he was the 97 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: first foreigner, the first non English person to get the job, 98 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 2: and there was a big hullabaloo when he got it. 99 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 2: Was there no one good enough in England, no one 100 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: English who was good enough to manage England. And then 101 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 2: he quickly started winning matches and of course, as we've 102 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 2: seen in any sport, you know, as soon as a 103 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 2: win starts happening and more wins come, everyone gets on board. 104 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: I think he was desperately unlucky not to win something 105 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: with the England squad he had at the time played 106 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: sixty seven matches one forty. He had peak David Beckham 107 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: in his prime, Frank Lampard, Stephen Gerrard, Rio Ferdinand, very 108 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 2: very good players and it's an absolute tragedy what has happened. 109 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 2: Spent seventy six diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but he gave 110 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 2: some really intelligent interviews in the last few weeks. So 111 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: he's passed away in Sweden with his family by his side. 112 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 2: But then one little quote that he said last week 113 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: was that one aspect of life that nobody ever talks 114 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: about is death. 115 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's true. Good on you might we'll catch up this. 116 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: I appreciate it very much. Into Brady out of Britain 117 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: for us this morning. 118 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 2: For more from the Mic Asking Breakfast, listen live to 119 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: news talks.
