1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: Riding high to the UK. We go, Roderick, very good

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: morning to you, my frame, Come on in, Mike errold Mike, Tommy,

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: what have they got him?

4
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 2: Full this time GBH or alleged GBH assault. What happened

5
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:17,159
Speaker 2: was that this I dare say if your audience is

6
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,959
Speaker 2: familiar with the name Tommy Robinson by now, given that

7
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:25,159
Speaker 2: he's the kind of right wing icon of protest and

8
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 2: activism and very very much disdained by everybody else. He

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: was actually seen on a coast circuit television walking away

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 2: from a man who'd clearly been hit. The question is

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 2: whether Tommy Robinson hit him. He flew straight off to

12
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: Portugal and the police arrested him on his way back

13
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: from Pharaoh. It'll be interesting to see if he gets

14
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 2: a fair trial, because hitherto he hasn't been given a

15
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 2: fair trial. Now you might argue enough is an awful man,

16
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: but the way he's been treated by the law courts

17
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: in the past has inflamed the views of the far right,

18
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: and they feel they've got a point. You know that

19
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 2: there is a conspiracy against them. Always treat these people

20
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: the way you treat anyone else.

21
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: All right, now, farage so he wants the immigration status

22
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: of people who are arrested. I'm watching yet again, Rod,

23
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: another summer of I if honestly, if I was in government,

24
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: would I promise to stop the boats? Knowing surely in

25
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: my heart of hearts, I didn't stand a hopenhill.

26
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 2: Well, yeah you might if you actually did it. I

27
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: think Germany has cut its it's refugee asylum seekers numbers

28
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,919
Speaker 2: by fifty percent. America has cut its asylum seeker numbers,

29
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 2: you know, people coming over from Mexico, primarily by some

30
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: way the region of eighty percent. It can be done,

31
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: but it needs it needs to take of action and

32
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: severity which the Labor government, and in fairness before it

33
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: the Conservative government simply wasn't prepared to adopt. You can

34
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: do it. I think you know. One answer was the ruanderance,

35
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 2: which is to send all the asylum seekers to Ruanda.

36
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 2: What should certainly be done, and has never been done,

37
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 2: is to say to all of them, if you attempt

38
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: to enter this country, illege to me ut facto will

39
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 2: not be given asylum. And that seems to me to

40
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 2: be the most sensible route out of all of this.

41
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 2: It would be a deterrent, but anyway for ours wants

42
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 2: Faras wants police to release the immigration status of the

43
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 2: criminals who are arrested for serious crimes. And this is

44
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: based around one in Warwickshire in which it's suspected that

45
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: the people who sexually assaulted a twelve year old girl

46
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 2: were Afghans Flores.

47
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,079
Speaker 1: Has it been through going through as we speak? He

48
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: gets it?

49
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: Am all right.

50
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: It seems to be the north of Scotland.

51
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: It's where I am. That's why I mention it. You see,

52
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 2: if you were talking to some bloke in London, he

53
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: wouldn't even know the florists existed. But up here, I'm

54
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 2: telling you the trees are down. You can't get out

55
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 2: your drive because of all the debris. But no one

56
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: south of what will notice for a second.

57
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: And what's it like in the middle of summer with

58
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: a storm? What have you got? Warm temperatures but big wind.

59
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly it. Warm temperatures, big with occasional very

60
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 2: dusty showers. But it has been seasonably warm. It's been

61
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: nice weather here. We're having a good summer. But these

62
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: storms come and you know August in Fairness is known

63
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: for storms that I dare say the BBC will be

64
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: telling us it's all climate change. But I remember being

65
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: August storms back when I was a.

66
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: Kid exactly, Hey, listen, just while I've got you and

67
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: quickly this I find hard to believe. So the government

68
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: will restrict civil service internships to students from poorer families

69
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: and they want to make Whitehall more working class. This

70
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: is driven by somebody called mcfed and pet Chancellor of

71
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: the Duchy of Lancaster. And you are judged by what

72
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: your parents were earning and doing when you were fourteen.

73
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: How mental is this?

74
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 2: Well, well, okay, let me be devil's advocate for a second.

75
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 2: It is unquestionably the takes that the civil service is

76
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 2: of a simle view politically into monoculture, and they are

77
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 2: largely they are almost entirely middle class people who've been

78
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: to Oxford got a PPE and a very pro remain

79
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: in the EU, very pro assylum secrets, etcetera, etcetera. So

80
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: they're out of step with the majority of opinion. And

81
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: I don't know that this is Labour's way of doing

82
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 2: Some think about it. It wants to enfranchise the working

83
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 2: class a bit poor, but I don't know how you

84
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: can accurately tell who's working classes who isn't And I

85
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: suspect that this will simply be a brief spurt of

86
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: de Yeah, I suspect it's just a quick burst of

87
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 2: that and then we'll hear no more about it. It

88
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 2: seems to me an absurdity.

89
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: Right, Rod go, Well, we'll see you Thursday, roder Little

90
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 1: and Britain. By the way, other matters, they plan to

91
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: evacuate more seriously ill children injured in Gaza. It's unclear

92
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: how many. They'll allow up to three hundred to enter

93
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: the UK to receive free medical care. Some have been

94
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: brought in privately so far, but the government's going to

95
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: get involved via metrics next time. In your europe entry

96
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: exit system, the ees will replace the current paper chicks,

97
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: which means they're going to go biometrics in the European Union.

98
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: And the population just for funzis England and Wales population's

99
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: gone up up one point two percent. They've gained seven

100
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: hundre six thousand, eight hundred and eighty one people. The

101
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 1: population now officially sits at sixty one million, eight hundred thousand.
