1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,040 Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondence with us. 2 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 2: Hello Winda, Hey Heather, great to speak to you again. 3 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Mate. It's like groundhog Day here we are discussing yet 4 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: again Starma is Anderpresia yet again? 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 2: Yes, so this is again to do with the Epstein 6 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 2: files and his former Ambassador to America, Peter Mandelsson, who 7 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 2: at one stage had described Jeffrey Epstein as his best 8 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 2: pal in the world, no matter where I am, and 9 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 2: even had emailed him to say I think the world 10 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 2: of view. Well, he got the boot in September. Mandelsshon. 11 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 2: What's happened now? Why this is from Page News again 12 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 2: is Starmer has chosen to release all of the files 13 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: relating to his appointment of Mandelssohn as British Ambassador to 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: America last year. They wanted to build a relationship with Trump. 15 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 2: They needed someone who could be in the room with 16 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 2: big political beasts, schmoozs them and do what was best 17 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: for Britain and I think they were completely blinded by 18 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: Mandelsson's ability to do that, and they completely overlooked this 19 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 2: friendship that was a very deep and long running friendship 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 2: with Jeffrey Epstein. Now Mandelson has denied any wrongdoing with 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 2: regard to that friendship. He's under investigation by the police 22 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 2: for alleged misconduct in a public office. But what is 23 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 2: damning here really is that Starmer, despite multiple warnings in 24 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: the files that have been released overnight, multiple warnings about 25 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 2: Mandelssohn his reputation, he's very close friendship with Epstein, Starmer 26 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: went ahead and give him that gig. 27 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,559 Speaker 1: Right, So what's your prognosis on his career here, given 28 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: that the by election was lost to the Greens and 29 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: now there's more of this crap coming out about him. 30 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: Well, he will limp on until May. There are council 31 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: elections across much of England. There are national elections for 32 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: the Parliament in Scotland and the Senate in Wales, and 33 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: I think if they're as bad as the polling predicts, 34 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: the Labor Party, unless they are Turkey's heading head first 35 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: for Christmas, will sit down privately and think we need 36 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: someone to turn this ship round before it's too late. 37 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: They would still have two and a half years to 38 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 2: the next election. And I think if Starmer loves the 39 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: Labor Party and these these elections are as bad as 40 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 2: they are predicted to be, in May, he would have 41 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 2: to step aside. I mean, he's just a deeply unpopular prime. 42 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: Minister right now. What is the discount on these white 43 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: loss j jebs. 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: Twenty five percent if you jog, so you've got to 45 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: be able to prove. Now, I did wonder how they're 46 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 2: going to do this. This is Boots the pharmacy. They're 47 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: in the papers today and they sort they're linking up 48 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 2: with a fitness app. So you will have to have 49 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: the app on your watch. You will have to do 50 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 2: five k at weekends and you will get twenty five 51 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: percent off Mount Jarro and wegg Ave and all these 52 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: weight loss jobs jobs that absolutely everyone seems to be on. 53 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 2: I'm really split on this. I don't like the idea 54 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 2: of I even read an article last week in Runner's 55 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 2: World about like super fit people are now taking white 56 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: loss jobs just to get rid of the last two 57 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: or three kgs before a race, which is my mind. 58 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: The stupidity of this, I don't know. I've made TV 59 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: shows on my show Roundtable about these weight loss jobs, 60 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 2: and all of the medical experts, every single woman I've 61 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 2: had on talking about this to a t they have said, 62 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 2: you know, you need to be exercising more, these are 63 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 2: not just like a miracle, click the button and it's done. 64 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: Yeah too, right, But so how do you prove that 65 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: you've been jogging? Because surely you could just record yourself 66 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: going out for quite a brisk walk and then say 67 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: I jog really slowly. 68 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: Well, well there we go. I think. Look, it's a 69 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: great publicity stunt for Boots if I'm honest and we're 70 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: talking about it. I think ultimately, if anyone can cover 71 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: five K and they've got it on the app, no 72 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 2: matter how long it's taken, they'll get twenty five percent off. 73 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,839 Speaker 2: But it's it's a strange one. 74 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: There's a strange one, and thank you very much, really 75 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: appreciate it.
