1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: There's story we love. A man who tried to set

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: fire to a police station in a bid to impress

3
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: a woman has been jailed and during his sentencing, the

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: judge offered some blood advice. Any woman who's impressed by

5
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: you burning a police station, is it worth impressing? So

6
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: this is a man called Zane Gordon from kaike Coe.

7
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: There was a whole lot of stuff that happened that

8
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,240
Speaker 1: one day in December twenty twenty three, twenty twenty four.

9
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: Should I say he went to the Kaikoe police station

10
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: at three point fifteen in the morning. He placed a

11
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 1: just juice bottle that had tissue paper coming out of

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: the top. Then he set the tissue alight. Then he

13
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: exited the view of the security camera which is watching

14
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: him the whole way. But guess what, the tissue went out.

15
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: So Zay went back and let it again, this time

16
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: right in front of the security camera. Again, this time

17
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: he caught fire and it exploded across the doorway, charring

18
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: everything cosmetic damage to the front of the station. Throughout

19
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: the incident, Zaye was recording on a phone and talking

20
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: to someone off camera. When arrested, he explained, it's not

21
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: a direct to take on police. I'm just trying to

22
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: impress the girl, the same girl he tried to strangle earlier,

23
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: and he's gone to jail. Er Brady joins me. Now

24
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: from the UK, boy, I bit you wish you had

25
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: stories like that, Linda, I'm just lifting my jaw off

26
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: the floor.

27
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 2: Old Zane doesn't sound the sharpest tool in the box

28
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 2: the prison.

29
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: No. No, Speaking of which, Donald Trump says when he

30
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: leaves the White House, I've seen if he leaves the

31
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: White House. But when he leaves the White House, he'd

32
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: like to be Scotland's leader. So tell me how does

33
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: Scotland feel about that?

34
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: As you can imagine, people are laughing, people are shocked.

35
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 2: All I would say is people were laughing at this

36
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 2: guy eight nine years ago when he was running for president,

37
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 2: and look how that panned out. So do not underestimate

38
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: Donald Trump at your peril. He's had a very good

39
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 2: few days. So he had a long weekend, four days

40
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: in Scotland, basically playing golf on his golf courses. He

41
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: came over here like he was the Prime Minister. He

42
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: made Starmer look like a boy in the yard in

43
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: his own backyard. Trump dominated everything, and we now find

44
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: out that before leaving, he recorded an episode of a

45
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 2: podcast and he was asked in the podcast about, you know,

46
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: plans going forward, and he said, Scotland's a great country.

47
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: They are fine people. He then said that there is

48
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 2: no crime in Scotland, and hewhere in Scotland there is

49
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 2: no crime, so clearly there's probably no crime at his

50
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: golf courses because you've got to be mega rich, an

51
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: elite to play there. But he said it's very different

52
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: to the United States, and he said, look, you know,

53
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 2: when I leave the White House, I reckon I could

54
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 2: be first Minister here. I could do a job and

55
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: he would qualify. He could get Scottish citizenship in a

56
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 2: UK passport through his late mother who was born in Scotland.

57
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 2: He has a lot of money invested up there. So

58
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: as outlandish as this is the world we live in,

59
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 2: anything is possible. This is true.

60
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: This is true. Though. I would suggest we should take

61
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: him down to Barrow Lands in Glasgow for a night

62
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: out and see if he thinks he's no crime having

63
00:02:58,960 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: down there.

64
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 2: In the morning, I miss the best of look at that.

65
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and a lot of coverage of him playing golf

66
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: and a lot of people going oh, look at that

67
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: terrible strike. Now I watched it, and frankly, for men

68
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: of seventy nine, he wasn't half bed. However, I believe

69
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: his clubs are too short for him. But because he's stooping, well,

70
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: that might just be his posture. Whatever, he's a good

71
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: golf player for seventy nine. Now is there going to

72
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: be a third runway at Heathrow?

73
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: So? Keir Starmer will today announce plans for a third

74
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 2: runway at London Heathrow Airport, and he will say that

75
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: he wants to see spades in the ground, digging and

76
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: working before the year twenty thirty. They've been talking about

77
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: this Andrew here for half a century. Third runway at Heathrow,

78
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: I would say, there is more chance of me playing

79
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: for the All Blacks by twenty thirty. Quite frankly, this

80
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 2: is not going to happen. There will be objections. You

81
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 2: will see environmentalists, you will see local residents who don't

82
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: want their villages flattened to make way for a third

83
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: runway at Heathrow. But nevertheless Starmer's as the country needs growth.

84
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: I would point him towards yesterday's incident with air traffic Control,

85
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 2: which went down due to a glitch. Hundreds of flights

86
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 2: canceled or delayed, thousands of people stuck in airports for

87
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: a long time. They can't cope with the system as

88
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 2: it is. Never mind more flights now.

89
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 1: I had the idea of developing Luton Airport and also

90
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: developing Stenstid which was back in the nineties, so that's

91
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: the newest airport, and also expanding London City Airport. I

92
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: thought the whole point about that was to take pressure

93
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 1: off Heathrow so we didn't have to have at the runway.

94
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, the smart thing would be to improve regional

95
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 2: airports away from the London area and you know, put

96
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: more money into Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, you know, going forward.

97
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 2: But they seem to be obsessed with Heathrow and that's

98
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 2: because it's a hub airport. Big business likes getting into

99
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,239
Speaker 2: the city quick. They can't do anything with London City Airport.

100
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 2: It's a very strange location. Yeah, but you're right, you

101
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: know they need to think about this. But as I say,

102
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 2: you see me playing rugby for the All Black sat

103
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: this happens.

104
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: And I used to live in Hounslow right underneath the

105
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: flat path. I can tell you it was a nurse,

106
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: isn't absolutely Now population is soaring in the UK because

107
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: of migration, and of course this is a huge national

108
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: talking point because a lot of those migrants refugees from

109
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: goodness notes of where and this escapeece from Eastern Europe

110
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: and people complain that they're changing the national character.

111
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 2: Yes, this is a big, big problem. This is the

112
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 2: number one priority for Starmer to sort out in the

113
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 2: next four years if he wants to stand any chance

114
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: of being re elected. So the figures today we have

115
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: the last twelve months, there's been an increase of seven

116
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 2: hundred and seven thousand people in the UK census in

117
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 2: terms of how many people are coming here and living here.

118
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: And you know, you're taking away all the numbers of

119
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 2: people who've departed the UK, Brits who've emigrated, people who've died,

120
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 2: babies being born. The net figure is the population in

121
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 2: England and Wales has gone up by seven hundred and

122
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: seven thousand people. Now, that is huge pressure on resources, infrastructure, schools, hospitals, doctors, clinics,

123
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 2: and it's starting to tell. I mean, I travel the

124
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: country every day every week and you're hearing from people

125
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 2: who are very, very annoyed about immigration here, and Nigel

126
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,119
Speaker 2: Farage is lapping this up and his poll rating keeps

127
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: going up.

128
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: All right, Inton Brady, I thank you for your timing.

129
