On Nick Ferrari at Breakfast, Rishi Sunak defends his Eat Out to Help Out scheme at the Covid inquiry. Nick speaks exclusively to Former Deputy Prime Minister Therese Coffey. The Minister for Illegal Migration joins live ahead of the Rwanda plan vote. All of this and more on the Nick Ferrari Whole Show Podcast.
Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast:(1) Right-wing members of Rishi Sunak's UK Conservative Party caucus said his attempt to implement a plan to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda "doesn't go far enough," underscoring the risk to the prime minister of a Parliamentary rebellion. (2) Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said he kept government scientists in the dark about his controversial Eat Out to Help Out, an acknowledgment likely to fuel questions over his judgment in pushing a policy that encouraged Britons to mingle in pubs and restaurants during the pandemic. (3) Talks are ongoing to secure an oil and gas cut agreement on the final day of the COP28 climate summit in Dubai. (4) Google's mobile app store maintains a monopoly in the market for distribution of programs and payments on its Android software, a federal jury in California decided, dealing a blow to the technology giant in a high-stakes antitrust battle with Epic Games Inc. (5) The pace of spiraling rental costs in Britain's housing market is finally beginning to slow according to Zoopla See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Newscast brings you daily analysis of the latest political news stories from the BBC. Today, we look at what's happening with the plan to send asylum seekers to Rwanda. Conservative MPs met throughout the day to discuss the plan ahead of crunch vote for Rishi Sunak.Adam is joined by Chris Mason and former No10 communications director Craig Oliver.Meanwhile, the Prime Minister spent the day giving evidence to the Covid inquiry and defended the Eat Out to Help Out scheme.

It was Rishi Sunak's turn at the Covid Inquiry today. The Prime Minister faced questions on Eat Out to Help Out, his relationship with No.10, tiers and PPE procurement. How did the former Chancellor come across? And how has his tone changed because he is now Prime Minister? Natasha Feroze speaks to Fraser Nelson and Kate Andrews.
The prime minister has given his evidence to the COVID inquiry today, defending his Eat Out to Help Out scheme and telling of fears within the Treasury that the UK would not be able to fund the pandemic response. While at the inquiry, some of Rishi Sunak's Tory colleagues have called on the PM to scrap his Rwanda bill, as it goes to the Commons tomorrow. On the Sky News Daily, Jonathan Samuels hosts our political editor Beth Rigby, who discusses the difficulties Sunak faces within his party over Rwanda. Plus, our political correspondent Tamara Cohen reports on the PM's accounts at the COVID inquiry. Producer: Alex Edden Editor: Philly Beaumont
Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast:(1) Arm's CEO Rene Haas told Bloomberg that whoever wins the next election, further restrictions on skilled migration will hurt growth. (2) The Prime Minister is due to answer questions at the Covid inquiry today. Last month, the government's former chief scientific officer told the hearing it was "obvious" Rishi Sunak's Eat Out to Help Out scheme would fuel the spread of the virus. (3) The S&P 500 Index will hit a record high in 2024 as the US avoids sinking into a recession, although a weaker consumer will mean the index gains less than this year's 20% surge, according to Bloomberg's latest Markets Live Pulse survey. (4) University of Pennsylvania president Liz Magill and Board chair Scott Bok resigned this weekend. It comes days after Congressional testimony in which Magill declined to say that calling for the genocide of Jews always violates the university's code of conduct. (5) For decades, many of the world's richest people chose to safeguard their assets in overseas locales ranging from the Cayman Islands to Switzerland and the British Virgin Islands. But a new wealth hub is becoming wildly popular with billionaires — the skyscraper-studded emirate of Abu Dhabi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Heigh ho, heigh ho, it's off to the Covid Enquiry we go to hear what Vallance and Whitty had to endure during the pandemic. Spoiler alert - incompetence, idiocy and disrespect mainly. We also find out they were burdened with a PM who didn't understand the science and thought if people died it was 'OK' if they'd had a 'good innings.' Lovely. But first, Jemma and Marina are thrilled that The Exploding Heads' catchphrase 'Love to the family Colin' is catching on. Hear an extraordinary caller who was so aerated about immigrants he was positively yelling at Tom Swarbrick on LBC. Then Jemma also encountered yet another 'Colin' on Jeremy Vine. 'Love to the family....love to the family' was the only worthy response. Funny how it's always 'foreigners' these 'types' get so worked up about. Which brings us to Rwanda- ie the most unworkable, costly, morally dubious idea ever to have been deemed unlawful multiple times. The latest ruling by the Supreme Court is in and when Sunak binned Braverman he had the perfect opportunity to bin the policy off with her. But no, Dr Death (as he's being referred to on X due to his ill advised Eat Out to Help Out policy) is standing by it, doubling down and trying to change the law in order to change fact. On a lighter note, Cliff Richard, went on This Morning and told the world that he didn't get photographed with Elvis because he'd put on weight. At times like this Twitter can be fun.

UK correspondent Harriet Lines joins Kathryn to talk about Jeremy Hunt delivering the autumn statement. Among the big announcements - cuts to National Insurance, an increase to benefits in line with inflation and a multi-billion dollar boost to manufacturing. She'll also look at how the Government's 'Eat out to help out' scheme during the pandemic was never discussed with scientists, the Covid inquiry heard today. Sir Jonathan Van-Tam, said he first heard about Eat Out to Help Out on television and said the scheme "didn't feel sensible to me". Harriet Line is Deputy Political Editor of the Daily Mail
In the past couple of days, the Covid Inquiry has seen the two most powerful scientists in the country during the height of the pandemic - Professor Chris Whitty and Sir Patrick Vallance - give evidence. What they've said has intensified the spotlight on Rishi Sunak - the architect of Eat Out to Help Out - of which testimony has revealed scientists weren't aware before the scheme was rolled out. Is this intensifying the pressure on the PM?And, ahead of the budget - tax cuts. But what kind? Are they politically motivated? And will they actually leave you better off?Senior Producer: Gabriel RadusProducer: Laura FitzPatrickSocial Media Editor: Georgia FoxwellVideo Production: Rory Symon & Arvind BadewalYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The News Agents".And, The News Agents now have merch!

Do you remember being told to stay at home? Or becoming very familiar with the word “furlough”? How about all those assurances that the Government was following the science? And were you persuaded when ministers urged you to Eat Out to Help Out? The Treasury was at the heart of the Government's response to the pandemic, rapidly designing and rolling our policies designed to protect jobs, support people and help businesses through an extraordinary – and unprecedented – time. But it was also wary of sharing its analysis, wary of external advice, and reluctant to work openly with other Government departments. To mark the publication of a major new IfG report into the Treasury's Covid response, Financial Times economics editor Chris Giles joins this special episode of Inside Briefing for a deep dive into how the UK's finance ministry performed during the pandemic – and asks what lessons needs to be learned. Presented by the IfG's Emma Norris with Gemma Tetlow and Olly Bartrum.
David Vance is back with us to discuss our way through the big stories this week in the news and have a look at what he has been posting on his awesome social media accounts. It's not for snow-flakes, expect free thinking, free speech, freedom of expression and plenty of opinion as David let's us know what he really thinks about the topics this episode including..... - BBC Launch education show for children in Afghanistan. - French protests and the brutality of the police. - Russia assumes UN Security Council presidency despite Ukrainian anger - Donald J Trump indicted. - Biden will not attend King Charles III coronation. - J6 prisoner 'Shaman' Jacob Chansley has been released 14 months early. - Town councillor jailed for Eat Out to Help Out fraud. - Poll suggests Scottish FM Humza Yousaf 'could lose seat' at next Holyrood election. - No Shit Sherlock: World Health Organization says healthy children and teens probably don't need a COVID clot shot. - NOT AN APRIL FOOL JOKE: Study finds flu shots may help prevent heart attacks.

David, thank you for joining us. My pleasure, or Peter, my absolute pleasure to be with you. The four weeks goes by very, very quickly between one of these and the next. That's life. [0:38] It does. This is the fastest live stream I ever do. You blink and it's over, so, and chatting. But actually, David, I was, what a weird, whenever we put out a video, well, actually did a live stream on Monday about the 425,000 that Elizabeth had got, been awarded by the courts. The grooming gangs. But we also put out a video clip of her father speaking, because we recorded him like two years ago, we were up in Rotherham two years ago, and we did a two minute clip of him talking about South Yorkshire police. And I sent it to a couple of friends, US friends, and they came back and said, I'm sorry, but is that English? Is there any way you can get subtitles? So I'm just hoping our US friends don't need subtitles tonight for us. We will see, we're not providing them. So just one thing before we jump in, I had a absolutely great time in for two days, three days, two days in Gibraltar. It was an event done by actually, who was it done by? It was done by Freedom Gibraltar and Workers of England Union. And it was a great event, basically the first time they had had such an event. [1:54] Opposing the Jabs. And they were worried it would get stopped, so it had to be done quietly. But really good to meet Dr. Clare Craig, really great to meet Dr. Aseem Malhotra, good to meet Dr. David Cartland, because I hadn't actually met Dave before. And to catch up with Gareth Icke and the Freds, Matt Hoy, John Bowe, who I hadn't actually met before. It was good to spend time with him. But a really great event. And Jenny Roberts had put it together and it shows what can be done in such a short space of time. We live streamed it. And I learned a lot from live streaming it because I have a load of things I will do better next time. It was good to have Oracle Films, Phil Wiseman correcting me and also Gabriel from Ickonic correcting me. So I learned a lot as we always should do. So the next time we live stream for an event like that, it will be even better. But let's jump in. Our first story, actually is not one that Dave and I talked about, but one I came across. This is of course Trans Visibility Day. So let me play this little clip from, I think Cartoon Network. Give me a moment. And, oh, which, I can't remember which squid I showed. Oh, here he is. [3:17] Music. [3:31] Yeah. Was that? Oh no, no! Oh, that was good. I was going to play longer. Obviously, this is the push on the whole trans agenda for children. And David, I think that's really one of the easiest wins for us on this issue, how children are being targeted. Yeah. Although, mind you, I wanted to know how Trans Visibility Day went in the Muslim world. I was wanting for an update on that. I can't seem to find any footage of it, Peter, in downtown Saudi. But there you go. Maybe someone can send me that footage. But yeah, the whole targeting of kids is, of course, absolutely an abomination, deplorable, and obvious. It's really, really obvious. [4:22] I'll tell you that one of the worst things I saw this week, I don't know what you thought was, and maybe you've got a thing to bring it up, But following the shooting in the Nashville Covenant School where the three kids were shot dead by a trans shooter, like let's call it for what it was, a trans shooter, and obviously the three adults as well were shot dead. I find it remarkable that we saw in the likes of the Kentucky Capitol building and the Tennessee Capitol building, these occupations, these insurrections by trans activists talking about how trans people were under attack. And in actual fact, it was a trans person who'd done the attack. And I mean, I'll be honest, I put out a podcast on this today, Peter. [5:07] Called, you know, Satanic Inversion, because that's what I, I think that's what it is. That there, and we saw the White House, also Jean-Pierre Lecarde, you know, or is that her name? Some, whatever she's called, Joe Biden's, Joe Biden, I think it's Karen Pierre something or another, but I prefer Jean-Pierre Lecoq, coming out and again saying, I'm sure you saw it, Peter, that the White House was very concerned about trans people being under attack, as this individual one did the attack. And so, you know, about trans kids, we've got to look out for trans kids. Yeah, we got to look out to make sure kids don't become corrupted in this way by this kind of, you know, very... Deranged psychological mindset. You know, I mean, I try to be kind to everyone and I don't want to generalize across any groups because generalization is never great. [6:02] But there's no doubt about it. There are some extraordinarily deranged individuals and they're all over social media, by the way, and they think that, yeah, super duper, trans kids, it's all normal. And, you know, thank you for identifying me by my pronouns as you put in that little cartoon. It's all nonsense. I think, David, I think in Rihad it was trans invisibility day. I think we need to get that right. Yeah, maybe that's what we need next year. Trans invisibility bloody year is what we need, because I've seen enough of these people, you know, these individuals, because I am sure there are some trans people who keep themselves to themselves. [6:41] And do what they want to do, hopefully behind the doors. And that's OK by me. I don't have a problem with that. But it's all this. I mean, let's call it again, grooming. It seems to me it's a form of grooming, one could argue. And yeah, I think it possibly is. So we need to protect children from this. One that Joe Biden is participating directly in himself, but what would surprise us more? Not much. choccy ice cream. Let's move on. See you soon. [7:10] Several other stories. And this is David, actually we're just going to go through David's Twitter feed generally tonight. So obviously that is the place to go for David's stream of consciousness, which never ends. But this is BBC education show in Afghanistan helps children banned from school. I'm not sure what the BBC are doing trying to educate anyone in Afghanistan, but but maybe that's where TV license money goes. What do you think, David? Well, yeah, I mean, it's great to see this is what are the draconian license tax funds, but I wanted to know, well, I wonder what kind of education they're providing the Afghanistani kids, or they're providing them insights into the whole LGBTQ plus agenda, perhaps into trans rights, perhaps into the 97 different genders. I mean, Afghanistani kids, boys and girls, are better off without the BBC going near them. In fact, for that matter, our kids, our British kids, would be much better if the BBC weren't propagandizing them through their programs. And actually, I'll tell you, it's interesting. I've got, as you know, I've got a couple of young grandkids. [8:24] And so when they're here, we watch, I think it's, is it BBC, CBeebies, their kids. What CBeebies do. Yeah, so we watch that. And believe it or not, this is what I do, Peter, when I'm not stream of conscience. [8:41] And it's really quite absorbing because in this, and bearing in mind that my grandkids are like, you know, not even three and just over one. So they're very young and they're watching programs, BBC's pushing out. And in those programs is the propaganda. It's right there. You can see those of us who have eyes can see it, you know. So I mean, frankly, if the choice is the BBC or the Taliban. [9:08] Well, That is a hard choice. That is a really hard choice, but absolutely. Can I just just let me pull in one or two people on the live chat on GETTR on the side. Chris Davis, 33. Good evening, Peter and Dave. You're first on Chris. Villan 82. Claude 1. Doubly deplorable 007. Hello, gentlemen. And Chad from PA, Pennsylvania, PA, US. Nikki Eaddy, Evening Old, Gareth1965, Evening Peter and David, Biotech Babe, Good Evening, and there are Julie, Northern Monkey, as always it goes on. Do drop, if you're watching on GETTR do make sure and drop your comments, always good to know where you're watching in the world and how you're joining in. So thank you for those comments. Let's bring up this story, which is our next story and Projam can you actually play that? [10:13] Can you play the video of that? [10:38] I don't know if it's better in slow motion or not, but I thought it was quite good. Yeah, yeah, Raffy Irvine and Anthony Pena, yeah. It's the cinematic version, David. Yeah, yeah, Hollywood production version, yeah. But this, this is the, I guess, the brutality of the French police on the French protesters not wanting to, well, I was going to say France, not wanting to work. No, I mean, not wanting to work until they die, just having been through a French air traffic control strike. But it's interesting comparing the French response to government oppression in one way and the British response and I kind of like what I see in France. Well, it's really quite nuanced this because first of all, those people that you saw, those police men, they weren't regular gendarmerie, right? So they weren't. [11:27] So that there are because I'm not sure the regular gendarmerie are on board with all this oppression. But these are kind of specially trained, you know, like the old days in the UK, the SPG or whatever, they're specially trained units of, you know, thugs, lawful thugs. And we've seen all the footage, Paris, Toulouse, wherever you want to name it in France, where these individuals, these legal thugs, absolutely batter the protesters. And we saw this during, Peter, I'm sure you'll remember during the Gillet Jaunes protests, which I also supported. It's the same modus operandi. So it's absolute brutality. It's absolutely police state on the one hand. Now, some people will say to me, and I've had this criticism, yeah, David, but what you don't understand is some of those protesting are professional left wing agitating protesters. Yeah, it's France. What do you expect? Of course they are. You know, ooh la la, that's France. [12:31] But some of them aren't. Some of them are just people who, as you said, Peter, they're not happy about the pension age being increased from 60 to 64. So they're out on the streets. Good for them. What's the Brits doing? They're going down the pub, they're watching EastEnders, they're sitting back complacent, taking it all. I read today, Peter, I didn't put it on my timeline, but I think the plan is, maybe not for even for your age, but the generation below you, I think this government's talking about retirement would be in the 70s. [13:04] You know, the 2070s, I don't know, no, they're in their 70s. And this is, you know, basically, they want to work people to basically the end of their useful lives, and then just let them die, and no pension commitment is required. I used to feel that, you know, I used to, my mindset's changed so much, Peter, as you know, over the last couple of years, I'm way down lots of rabbit holes. And one of the things is, I do believe in fiscal responsibility, because I am I'm naturally conservative, but this is a government that can afford to spend billions and billions on the farcical COVID scam to Ukraine and all this kind of stuff, and net zero money, endless money can be spent on that. Well how about you don't spend the money on that and help fund decent pensions, British, pensions at a reasonable age, rather than keeping, you know, dangling the carrot in front of the worker so that they work to the end of their days. I actually think that maybe something like 65 is a decent age for retirement, but on a decent pension. The French get £1,400 per month, roughly, on the French state pension. The British one is about £800. So that's how lousy our successive governments are. And believe you me, Labour won't do much to improve that at all when they get in. So yeah, I'm with the French in spirit. [14:30] And if the pension age was increased by a year, and that money somehow was ring fenced, then I can understand an argument for that. But of course, we know the problem is that none of these things are ring fenced. That's exactly right. Yeah, yeah. You know, just 1% more, but don't worry, we'll ring fence it for the NHS. I mean, we heard Blair at that back in the in the noughties. Just want to increase the tax burden so they can, this is the politicians, can spend it on their particular projects. But the projects are never about making, for example, I believe that a mark of a civilized society is how it looks after its elderly as well as its young. And if you make your people work to the end of their 70s and then give them a lousy pension, I mean, that's not a civilized society. And that's kind of where we are. So we could well do to learn, dare I say it, from even the French, because even with this Macron tyranny, they're they're still getting out of it at age 64. We're 67 at the moment, moving to 68. But as I say, what do we do? We watch the footy. That's OK then, isn't it? [15:51] Well, of course, one of the reasons why anything, state pension needs to be raised is, of course, to support the the war over in Ukraine. But this is a great story. Russia, once again, another David story on his Twitter timeline. Russia assumes UN Security Council presidency despite Ukraine anger. This is the 15 members take it up for a month at a time. They were called on the US to block it. They said they're not. But it is a ceremonial position, but it is quite beautiful to see the arguments and the confusion. What do we do with this? Russia is president of the UN Security Council for the next month. It's beautiful. [16:37] Yeah, it is beautiful. And as you said, Peter, like it is purely ceremonial. There's not a lot can happen to it. But the BBC, you know, they're having an emotional meltdown. Zelensky and the gang, you know, all those corrupt crooks in Kiev, they're having an emotional breakdown about it. And I think it's glorious. It's just a superb irony. I mean, they're saying, oh, the last time they held this position, they invaded Ukraine. What will they do this time? They'll do what they want to do. And it's as simple as that. I mean, the whole Ukraine thing continues to drag on. You know, we're now beginning, I think, in the West to get the signals that, oh, well, maybe Ukraine mightn't win everything. Maybe, just maybe, there might need to be some kind of of agreement between them and Putin. So basically, I mean, Ukraine are absolutely losing this one, anyone who's following what's going out there. But from day one, I argued against this. [17:38] I think that we should never have had war or conflict. We needed peace. We didn't want to see lives being lost. But having said that, when you've got people like Ben Wallace, or what is it, what's he, the Armed Forces Minister, I mean, he's as hot for war as can be, along with most of the Conservative Party. they, the Conservative government, they want war. And so, yeah, Russia occupying this position, lots of lols in that one. Did enjoy the rich irony of that one. You would need a heart of stone not to laugh. You would. [18:10] Did you, I don't know if you posted or someone else where of the FPO, the party that actually is leading the polls in Austria, the Freedom Party, and Zelensky came in for a video call to Austria and they all got up and walked out. Wow, I mean, don't you wish you could see that in the British Parliament? And there we go, looking across to Austria for some leadership on this. Yeah, that's right. They see Zelensky, for what he is, an absolute grifter at the very best, and maybe worse than that again. And yeah, they all walked out. And yet, if it was in Westminster, Peter, they would all stand up like seals, and they would all applaud, you know, Slave Ukraine and all that there, they would do that. And that tells you more about the decayed state of our political system here in the UK. And even Austria shows more backbone than Britain. You know, so what is it? You know, that's disturbing for me to see the difference. We don't have any opposition to what's going on. We just have a uni party. [19:15] Well, let's move over across the pond over to the States. And this was a beautiful meme you put up, David. Wait a sec, you cannot doubt a former president for paid off women you had sex with to keep it quiet. And poor Bill Clinton must be really, really worried. He's worried. He's worried. I mean, if Hillary doesn't get him, then the legal system might. That's a great Bill Clinton as well. How about that? It's a brilliant meme, actually, you know, and obviously this is relating to the, yeah, the ludicrous Trump indictment. And again, Peter, I turn this on, actually, I look a lot of these things from a UK perspective. [19:58] Probably not surprisingly. And I listened, like, for example, yesterday morning, Thursday morning, when this story broke, to the glee, the glee and the likes of, I listened to the awful talk vaccine radio with my bestie Julia Hartley Brewer. And like they were honestly, they were salivating. Oh, this time he's going down. He's going to go behind bars. He's the worst president ever. And they couldn't, you know, it's so pathetic. This is such a farcical Trump, trumped up nonsense by the Dems and their operatives in New York, obviously. It's a fully Democrat run system against Trump. I don't know about you, Peter, because I know you're closer even to the American scene than me. But I just think this will strengthen Trump. I, you know, it makes me now, I'm 100% in the Trump camp. I used to equivocate a bit between him and DeSantis. But I don't see them wanting to take down DeSantis. I don't see them wanting to stop DeSantis. I see them wanting to stop Donald Trump. And that's because for all his faults, and he, has some faults. You know, he is, I think he's the one that they fear. So he's the one that I'm 100% behind. And this stupid, you know, Stormy, I mean, Stormy Daniels owes Donald Trump 300,000, by the way. Why is she not behind bars? [21:21] Not completely. And here's another poll you put up and I thought Tim Young has hit the big time. He's got Donald Trump reposting. This is a poll now that Trump has been indicted by the New York grand jury. Who will you vote for in the Republican primary? Donald Trump 83%, DeSantos 13%, other candidates 4%. I can't see anyone else running against Trump now this has happened. It is Trump, it is the Americans, the groundswell opinion against the system. [21:59] There's no way I can see DeSantis actually being able to run now. I totally agree with you, Peter. At one point, I thought there might be a Trump-DeSantis ticket with Trump. I'm not even sure about that anymore. I'm certain it's going to be Donald Trump. You know, health, as long as everything stays well, it will be Donald Trump versus, you know, whoever the Democrats put up. And so this is another classic own goal by the Democrats, to my mind, and it's going to strengthen Trump's position. Certainly, I mean, it unites the whole MAGA base around Trump. I know the GOP, I know the RINOs and all of that, they'll be delighted about this. You know, the Mitch McConnell's, the Lindsey Graham's, all of those sort of token Republicans. Well I reckon it solidifies things for Donald Trump. And I hope he, I mean I would love him, I think it's Tuesday of next week when the, I think he has to go to, or he's being asked to go to New York to do the perp walk of shame. Good, because that will strengthen him even more. And I see so much support for him, I'm sure you see it as well, swelling around in social media. Some people who have not been 100% in his camp this time around, you know, maybe has he lost it and all of that. People see this and they just go, yeah, they want to take Trump down, we're going to stand with Trump and I am amongst them 100%. [23:27] Dave, I'm just thinking on when people go on your site, there's a buy me a coffee, they can support you and I would encourage the viewers to do that. I'm thinking of buy me a plane ticket and I could go over to see Trump. Do you think that's too much? I don't know. [23:41] Well, you see, I mean, you know, plane tickets, all that, all those carbon emissions, we're trying to save the planet. I'm not sure. But if people do want to buy me a coffee, like this one, go to davidvance.net. Here you go. And you can try and buy me a coffee there. I mean, it's going to get really interesting, as you know, Peter, in the next, you know, in the rest of 2023. This indictment is going to blow up in the faces, I think, of the Democrats. And I think it's going to bring the Republican Party mostly around Trump. [24:11] It makes DeSantis irrelevant. It raises questions about DeSantis a wee bit. But I see he did say that he would not allow Trump to be arrested in Florida, which is good. The indictments in New York City. So yeah, next week is going to be fascinating. You're going to see all the images, you know, but I wish Trump would be, I'd like to see them handcuff him. That would be good because they don't get it. You see, the lefties get this one completely wrong. That doesn't make us feel bad our side Peter. It makes us go, well, if they put the handcuffs around Trump, they're putting it around everybody who stands with Trump and that just energises the support. So the only one thing I do wish Trump would do. I wish he would get back on Twitter. He's missing a huge PR opportunity. GETTR's great and, you know, Truth Social and all that, but honestly, there's like millions of people he could be reaching. He'd be well advised to do that. I don't know if you agree or not, but I wish he would. And not being on Twitter means he does miss your stream of consciousness. [25:15] Yeah, well, I mean, you know, yeah, maybe that's the reason for him to stay off it, I'd say to prefer. Maybe we shouldn't blame him. Let me jump, oh I see there's Charlotte Baroness of Burnley on GETTR. Great to see you Charlotte. Hi Charlotte. Who else is, there are a load of other names. I just saw your name out there Charlotte. So obviously a previous guest with David and myself and who pulled together the wonderful Comcast. But that's a whole other story. Charlotte and I now do Twitter spaces together. So we in fact, actually, I think we're working on one on drag queen story hour between us. So that'll be an interesting Twitter conversation to tune in. And I'm sure Charlotte will put out more details of that, hopefully in the next couple of weeks. But anyway, something to keep your eyes on. David and Charlotte talking about drag queens. If you want to hear what they have to say make sure you tune in to Twitter spaces on both their Twitter profiles. This is the shocking news,i'll have to change my plans, President Joe Biden or former Vice President Joe Biden will not attend the coronation of King Charles the Third. I mean, that's that weekend, and now the Prime Minister has to attend the coronation of King Charles the Third. And I thought, you know, how can you just stop taking care of yourself when you can take care of the country, and I didn't. And I tell you what, the people of the country, they all have to go to the coronation. The people of the country, I mean, that's that weekend. I had it all planned. And now I've had to change my plans. It's not worth going to. [26:44] I know. I mean, I can understand lots of people will be devastated at this news. I mean, it's actually interesting on several levels. First of all, it sort of underlines my view that I think Biden is instinctively hostile to the United Kingdom generally. I think that what it's worth. There's that aspect to it. So it's a bit of an insult. The second instance, though, I mean, I want to avoid that weekend as well. I have no interest in Charles the woke. I have no interest in what the nonsense they're going to be getting up to. I won't be watching the coronation. I won't be watching the concerts. I won't be. I want nothing to do with it because I feel totally disconnected from this. Different with his mother, Queen Elizabeth. For this guy and what he represents. I mean, this is a World Economic Forum stooge king. And so, you know, and he continues, by the way, to the politicking. [27:45] Did you mean you mentioned just to go back to Ukraine for a second, Charles, after his planned visit to France, had to be put on ice under the fact that issues over there, you know, and kings can lose their heads in France. He went to, well, he went to Germany instead and lots of close connections there, of course. The old Saxe-Gothbergs and all of that stuff. And he gave a speech and he was talking in this speech about the great connections between Germany and the UK with regard to Ukraine. So Peter, this is the point. I don't believe Her Majesty the Queen would have been stupid enough to have said something like that. That's a political statement. You know, we can respect people's countries and say, but once you go into politics, if [28:32] you're a monarch, I think you're playing with fire. So this guy, to my mind, I just, I can't, I have no confidence in him. I don't respect him. Him and Camilla, I don't, to be honest. And that probably get me into trouble with all my unionist brethren who with all their support for the monarchy, but you can respect the institution and not respect some of the people within that institution. I don't respect him and for once Biden's got it right, albeit by accident. No completely. Staying on the US side, and you'd put this post up from Sebastian Gorka. [29:09] This is quite, there supposedly is a fact check underneath, which must mean Sebastian is absolutely correct. And this is Jacob Chansley. I actually hadn't seen him without his beautiful gear on, at least 14 months early after Speaker McCarthy released January 6 footage that proved he committed no crime. And we, I think, in the UK, forget that there are still hundreds of people who are locked up with no trial. And I thought that would be an anathema, I guess, with everything that the US stands for, which is your freedoms and rights. And you can be locked away without any chance, really, although years away, of any trial. Yeah, political pr- let's be honest, These guys are all political prisoners. The January 6th people are all political prisoners locked away. But I was so pleased that the shaman Jacob Chansley has been released. But if or, you know, or fact check or whatever. The fact is, this guy is 100 percent innocent. And they got the footage that shows that he was 100 percent innocent. [30:21] But get this, they have that footage from day one. And yet, Peter, they've put him away for 18 months in the meantime. And that shows you how vile this Biden regime is, that they will punish people just for the act of actually, in this case, he was escorted. I mean, the laugh on it was, he was escorted through the Capitol by a police officer or or two. [30:43] So it's not crime. There's no crime is committed. And it wasn't an insurrection, as I've said to you previously before. That's just the Democrat myth that they've sought to put in place. But yeah, I mean, it begs big questions into the direction the US has gone. Because as you rightly observe, a country based on freedom and liberty is happily locking up people without any due justice. Any justice has not been done. And now in this case, they're releasing one. What I hope he does, I hope he sues the hell out of the US system that put him there, because he's been denied his liberty for all that time. And with a bit of luck, we get a big payday. And he deserves that, not least for the costume, which, as you observe, I mean, you and I should probably get costumes like that and do a stream in our equivalent shaman gear. Because I think I'd look good in that there. So I'm not sure if you're more hair than me, but it would sort of suit my look, I think. But yeah, good news. I'm glad he's been released. And yeah, listen, all the others need released as well. Some of them, you know, there's some elderly people as well. This is appalling what's going on. And it wasn't for people like us and others in the alternative media, you know, going on about this. Like the mainstream media doesn't give a damn about these people. They're just put away, that's it. [32:08] But I thought the only thing he's guilty of is wearing a stupid costume. To me, that's really... It's not a stupid costume, it's a good costume. It's OK, I'll give you it's a strange costume. But I mean, if you want to see strange costumes, go back to... I put a clip of, again, the insurrectionists in the Kentucky Capitol building. And some of them, these were the trans insurrectionists, seem to be wearing headgear, which to my mind looked kind of a wee bit satanic, but I mean, but oddly enough, the media didn't want to talk about that. I saw that. If I can just add, I didn't realise I was looking, because I had the story up about Joe Biden not coming, and actually in the Daily Mail article, I thought it was good news he wasn't coming. The bad news is that. Kamala Harris may come. You have to come to London, seriously, you have to come with Kamala, laughing Kamala, crazy Kamala's coming, come on. Oh yeah, cackling, cackling Kamala. That'll be, I mean, it'll be great during the ceremony. Hopefully she'll start cackling during the more sombre bits, but I'll never know because I'll never be watching it. But yeah, Kamala's coming, yeah. I'm not going to go there, yeah, right, okay. I just thought I would try and tempt but okay, I failed. No, I'm not going there with Kamal. I know it's too dangerous. [33:30] Okay, we'll move on. This is an interesting story you'd put up. And we could go all different directions with this. This is former Keighley town councillor. Keighley is that town you know well from the grooming gangs. Probably not related to this story at all, but former town councillor jailed for eat out to help fraud. [33:51] And there he is. He tried to steal more than £430,000 through the government's Feed Out to Help scheme, and he has been jailed. This was over a four-week period. Over four weeks, he was claiming help of nearly half a million pounds. And of course, this half a million was from David, you and me, and all our UK listeners who pay taxes. So well done on paying your taxes. So So Mohammed Ikram could make 19 fraudulent claims of 430,000. But I guess it shows the ludicrously of the system that the government paid us to eat. [34:31] Well, it shows several things. It shows that. It also shows, as you say, I mean, he's been convicted and put away in relatively short order, Peter, relatively short order. But then if we were to change the conversation and talk about the grooming gangs and the horrible crimes that have been committed against young girls in so many of our cities. Well, that didn't happen in short order, did it? Convictions so few as they were. So there's a certain hypocrisy there. I guess the government gets a bit agitated when it sees its own, the money that it thieves from us, it being thieved in due course by people like this. But yeah, I mean, imagine my surprise when I, as I think that's what I said, imagine my shock. Couldn't believe it. I mean, a fine upstanding citizen like Mohammed there, trying to put his hand into the tune of almost half a million. And of course, I reckon this is the other thing, going back to that day, that was the help out, eat out scheme, wasn't it? [35:31] So I reckon what that is, Peter, is that's the tip of a massive iceberg, because the amount of fraud that I believe happened, and I don't have any specific knowledge of this, but just a general sense over that period during the government's coronavirus tyranny time, it's got to run into billions and billions. And again, that's what bothers me. Pensioners don't get a decent pension. But the government found all those billions for this stupid scheme of Rishi Sunak's, which didn't actually even work. It only brought us a short-term economic [36:11] spike and then it dropped down again. But some people were enriching themselves for sure. So, yeah, I'm glad he was convicted. I'd like to see, of course, others convicted, not least those within in the Conservative Party government who ensured that some of their pals were benefiting from all these contracts. We've seen about the PPE and all of that there. I mean, it's not just our dear friend Mohammed and Keighley that we need to be worrying about. There's, a whole raft of people who were absolutely milking it for all that they were worth. And at the time, it was kind of obvious, but after a year or two, at least, it's good to see at least one conviction. I hope there'll be many, many more. I hope so. And reading the story that he claimed for eight businesses, of which six of them were, entirely fictitious, so basically he just put random places down and the government said, okay, well, if you say Mohammed from Bradford will pay you the money. [37:16] Literally no one in government actually processing this scheme. They just trusted people to hand in in blank receipts. Yeah, I know. I know. Honestly, you couldn't make some. Some of the stuff I put it out, and it's almost like you couldn't make it up. You know what I mean? If you were trying to make a satire account, some of this stuff was right off that. As you said, six totally fictitious accounts, checks being sent off to them. And the government will say, OK, there's another point to be made in this. The government will say, Peter, well, look, it was a time of crisis. No, it was a time of self-inflicted chaos. That's what it was, number one. And I reckon if we expanded this conversation just more generally to how the government lavishes our taxes, I think it's just symptomatic of what just generally happens. I am sure the levels of corruption, the levels of inefficiency are staggering around how the government itself operates and how it spends money. Money. But hey, that's just the nature of statism, I suppose. We can trust our government to do what's best for us, David. I wouldn't hear anything different. So please put that cynicism away for a moment. [38:31] On to Scotland, and Scotland making, I do really despair. If any of you are up in Scotland, I do despair of what you're doing to your country. So Humza Yousaf could lose seat at next Holyrood election with labour making gains, new poll suggests. Talking about SNP dropped 8 points, labour up 7. And of course, there's a picture of a representation of the Scottish people. There it is, beautiful representation. [39:02] When I was talking to others, my point was that actual Humza Yousaf was not a great member of the Scottish Barm is only 37 being there a short time, incapable and out of his depth. And then, I assume because of the colour of his skin, because of his background, they think we need to tick that box and how dare we have Katie Forbes who's a Christian and they stick this guy in who's, out of his depth and I hope he does lose a seat. I'm assuming you think the same David. Oh yeah, it would be so sweet if he would, I mean I was looking Peter actually, also just as a I'll come back to Humza in a second, but I was looking at a website which mathematically calculates, sort of numbers what the 2024 election result will be by constituency. And I was amused to see that Boris Johnson in Uxbridge will also lose his seat. So I can't wait for the 2024 elections to see all these individuals fall. But back to Humza, Humza useless. And Richard Tice might be Prime Minister. [40:13] Because he's a solid guy that we can totally trust. Back to Humza, so I'm delighted that he won. I was in his corner all the way through because if there's one way to destroy the SNP, it's Humza Yousaf. Because this guy, as you rightly observed, Peter, every job he's held, he's been absolutely rubbish at it. I mean, catastrophically bad in everything. However, he basically is continuity Nicola Sturgeon. That's what you have to understand. So the party machine got behind him and that's how he got the position. Although isn't it interesting, he won by the golden percentage, 52% for him, 48% against him. Now when that was Brexit, people like him said, oh no, no, no, we need to have a, we, can't possibly go with that, it's too tight to call. When he wins, it's indisputable, nothing to say, move along. So I think he is going to be catastrophically bad. I can't wait. I mean, he's already saying things which are, you know, he's doubling down on the gender realignment act. It's fantastic stuff. But it's fantastic and it's not, on a serious note now. So again, okay, conspiracy theory alert coming up. [41:25] But what's going to happen is that clearly the SNP will lose some seats because this guy is going to be a catastrophe. And that's good. [41:34] Labour's going to pick them up. And that's not so good, because it just further underlines that Labour will come into power in 2024 with an absolute vengeance. And I'm saying to you now, and everyone can come back to me when we have the general election, you're going to see it's going to be 1997 all over again, or as in the Tories are going to be wiped. It might be their biggest defeat actually ever, I believe. And so, so, so this, but In the past, like with Blair, Peter, and you'll know this, student of politics, Labour always relied on the Scottish MPs to get the majority. They always historically did. And then the SNP took that away from them. And that's what essentially removed them as an electoral force. The demise of the, the shrinkage of the SNP will help Labour and, you know, I'm not happy about that, obviously. So, although it is uni-party stuff, like. So we will see. But Humzas, in the meantime, should give us loads and loads of lols. And, you know, I can't wait to get more of his policy. I laughed at his cabinet that he's appointed. Talk about, you know, they talk about we're going to have a cabinet of, [42:46] you know, of all the talents. He's producing one of none of the talents. And that's great. So, you know, and also a final thing in this one, you know, the SNP does not represent Scotland or all the Scottish people. It represents just a very vociferous, you know, kind of hate-driven minority I think. And so. [43:08] You know, I just try to sort of think, well, the SNP bubble is probably going to burst. And maybe you take small pleasures where you can find them. I find a small pleasure in the fact that Humza Yousaf, he's going to give us what, an independence in five years, he said. Five years to be independent. But unfortunately, that's meat for the faithful. The people who vote for the SNP, look, they think that's going to happen. And I well remember Peter during the first Scottish Indy, the way the SNP people, they hate on English people. It's unbelievable. It's a hate-driven party. And in a way, even Labour winning is kind of almost slightly better than the SNP. Because I don't think they can be just as hate-driven. But there we go. Scotland, Scotland, Scotland, the naive, I think we need to look upon it as these days. Anyway, moving on. And actually, you said about hating English. You do, you do. And Stu on Getter has put up white, white, white, white. He also does hate white people. So he does. Well, that's right. I mean, yeah, I'm sure you've seen it, Peter. We've all seen the clip of Humza Yousaf standing up in the Scottish Parliament And spitting out the word, you know, this was when he was justice minister. [44:33] That 96% of judges were white. But Scotland's a 96% white society. Why the hell? I mean, just basically, broadly speaking, you would expect public representation to be broadly aligned with the demographic. So if that had been a white person saying that speech and using a different ethnicity, they would have been absolutely pilloried on it. He got away with it. And it tells you more about him. I don't think, and I know everyone watching this, I'm sure we're all the same, we shouldn't judge anyone on the colour of their skin. We should believe that people should be given or get the jobs based on their merits and their ability and not on their skin colour. That seems to agitate Humza Yousaf. And maybe it's a good insight into his character as a man. Completely. I just see on the chat, I see my good friend, balconymuppet23, who says, let's pray they don't Epstein Trump. That's a whole other story. Well, not, sorry, just. [45:39] It's great. People contact me and want to get on, get her, because they want to join in, in the chat. So, that is one way you can jump in that. What else? Yeah, two last, last two stories. Dave and I could do this all night, but we won't because David will get thirsty and everyone else will get bored. So onto this COVID, goodness, we haven't done COVID, and don't worry, here it is. World Health Organization says healthy children and teens probably don't need a COVID vaccination. So healthy children and adolescents were deemed low priority in new guidance. The WHO said traditional routine shots were more important for the age group. Wow, what a change. What have they been doing jabbing all these children if they didn't need to? Yeah, that's the point. I mean, the World Health Organization, it's almost like a, it's a grotesque organization. As you said, Peter, and we talked about it when we've done this over the last couple of years, you know, they were pushing jabs into kids down to the age of five years old, little tiny kids. And you've got to get the jab even though they were statistically at no risk from a virus which may or may not exist, but still get them the jab anyway. And then of course we see the adverse reactions. And they were even working on could they get a jab into kids as young as six months. So that's what they were saying. And of course. [47:08] A lot of parents went with that, a lot of parents did. So a lot of very young kids. [47:15] And I'm talking like 11 and under, took the jabs, and as well as the ones in their teens and stuff, and this was to give them protection. Now 'the end of the' World Health Organization is sort of saying, well, look, you didn't really, maybe you didn't need to do that, don't worry about it. But everything to worry about, those kids have now got their bodies brimming with mRNA and all the stuff around that and to do with the implications for their health. So yeah, it's kind of shocking that having, you know, I mean, I wonder how people who took their advice, Peter, I wonder, how they feel now when they, if they even see that, you know, if they even see that where the WHO is basically saying, yeah, well, maybe not. And of course, but at the same time, though, to put it in perspective, our great British government is turning around and saying, is it from next week? Heads up, everyone, new jabs for the over 75-year-olds. All those 75-year-olds, because maybe they want to thin, they might want to thin the herd a wee bit, cull the numbers so that the pension, they don't have to be paying pensions to the people 75 plus. So yeah, it's all over. There's no consistency. We've talked about this often enough over the past few years. The bubble has burst on COVID. The dam has burst and it's coming out, and you know this after Richard Walter and all of that, Peter. The information is, we've been pushing it, pushing it, pushing it. [48:40] The facts, the problem is, well, not the problem, it's not a problem. Reality is the facts back up what we've been saying. These things aren't safe, they're not effective, they're potentially lethal, they're very ill-advised, and people should think very, very carefully before they allow that stuff into their body. We have said that from day one, from December of 2020, vilified for it by the likes of Richard Tice, by the likes of Piers Morgan, all the rest of them. And now here we have the World Health organization saying, well, oh, actually, yeah, maybe you don't need them. [49:13] And to me, this should change everything with anyone who has gone with this, that they were doing what they were told to do, jabbing themselves with an experimental substance, and then they're told, actually, you didn't need to get that done in the first place. It's too late. You've already had it. And to me, that should make anyone who's participated in this madness sit up and think, why did I get it? And it's too late. If the WHO, if the government changed their guidance after you've had it, it is too late. And I don't know why people didn't just wait to see what was going to happen. [49:50] Because they were... Now, it's an interesting one. This is, I believe, the kinder part of my mind says people were subject to military grade psyops on a likes Peter we've never seen in our lives, you know, during sort of 2020. As were we. You and I, David. Yes, yes, and we resist now, we resisted, why is that? Because I believe and I'm sure a lot of people following you, Peter, are the same. We're the critical thinkers, we're the people that go, whoa, hang on a second, I'm not just going to take somebody's word on this. I want to go and see if I can work it out for myself and find out and get other bits, other views. And so yes, we completely, you're right, we didn't, it didn't work on us. But the military psyops did work on about, you pick your percentage, but 80%, you know, whatever. And, but that's so many of our fellow citizens. And I find on some of my streams I've done [50:49] that even some of them have woken up now, and they've said to me, David, you know, I've taken a couple of these jabs, really wish I hadn't. And I'm going, yeah, you know, look, I understand, You know, we mustn't be hyper, what's the word, you know, we don't want to be sort of condescending and saying, oh, you silly people, if only you were as smart as us. No, no, people like to trust and to believe. I don't. So, and I suspect a lot of the critical thinkers aren't. But the masses do, the government tells them to do it, they think on balance the government's looking after us. But the World Health Organization begs to differ when it comes to this age group as well. But I wonder how much longer before the World Health Organization says, oh actually you see everybody, yeah you don't need to take these jabs. And that means everyone is now going to essentially be fooled. And I suspect that day is coming. [51:43] Yeah, yeah. Well, let's finish off again with a wonderfully good story. Not only have we found that actually all the people who gave a ticket, you didn't need to do it. And this is another wonderful story from the US CBS. Flu shot may help prevent heart attacks. Now, if this is the first that I've heard of such a substance that will stop heart attacks, I don't know if you're more aware of this than I am, but this was news to me. It's a medical marvel. It's an absolute medical marvel. The flu shot might indeed, as you say, prevent. And now flu shot being for a respiratory disease, right? Alleged respiratory disease. [52:28] If you believe in the flu, I don't. But respiratory disease. So why would that stop a cardiac incident. See, they're not the same folks. Respiratory system, cardiac system, cardiovascular, very, very different. Why would that be? Unless, of course, it's just complete and utter spin and nonsense. I mean, these are the people that are also saying, oh, by the way, you know, climate change, it can actually cause heart attacks. Well, actually, if I listened to the likes of Greta Von Doomberg long enough, I probably would have a heart attack. But other Other than that, climate change isn't causing heart attacks. Laughing too much isn't causing heart attacks. Yeah, I'm afraid. But there might be one thing that's causing heart attacks. But as we discovered when it came to the late Paul O'Grady, we're not allowed to talk about it. [53:23] We're not. But as we're not on YouTube, just to let you know, David may be talking about the mRNA jabs that many people took. Sorry, just a little asterisk in the bottom of that in case some of us didn't get that. I was being way too subtle. I know. Okay, let's rephrase that. The death jab might be responsible for that. The clot shot as well. Which is another version of it. So I don't want David to hold back. I don't want them telling me, why did you not let me say what the truth was in any way? David, thank you as always for coming on. Let me actually, let me just show four pictures which you've shared just to finish off with. We'll not really discuss them because we have no time, but just good to leave people with some. There's David leaving us with pictures of, I don't know the people he knows or friends. I don't really want to delve into that, but these are people obviously with issues in their lives and they need more help than an mRNA jab. [54:28] This was a lovely meme. They're going to keep creating mass shootings until you give up your guns. Once you give up your guns, they're going to kill you. You know what that's right. Just for our American friends who understand this, we Brits don't have the guns, but you may in America do. Maybe we need you to come and rescue us once again. There was this, was this a video? I think it was a picture, was it? I enjoyed it. It was a picture, yeah. Hate crime. If you're white, drown the violence. If you're one of the rainbow colours, that was really funny. The final one was, let me bring up the final one. This one, I wasn't quick enough on the buzzer. This was on the light newspaper. And, oh, thank you ProJam. You were there ahead of me. Oh, there. And it is this, the problem with natural immunity is that it's free and that is big pharma speaking. I think that explains everything that has happened over the last three years in terms of power, in terms of money and in terms of control. And on that, David, what do you have coming up soon? What can people look forward to apart from you and Charlotte on Twitter space? [55:51] So yeah, so we've got a Monday live stream coming up. I've got a really good guy, Francis O'Neill, coming on with me next Monday. Then following Wednesday, Wednesday week, I've got, just by way of diversion, I've got a guy called Jeff from Jeff Buys Cars. It's a YouTube channel, Jeff Buys Cars. Really, really good guy. He's ended up buying his cars. But he's become more and more, let's say, awakened. And he's very interesting on electric vehicles, the insanity of electric vehicles, 15 minute cities, the insanity and the worst of 15 minute cities. So we got Jeff coming on the stream. So we're trying to mix it up a bit. And I tell you what, it is really important. I mean, I'm very grateful for this opportunity with you Peter on a regular basis. But I think it's also really great to expose our audiences to different voices. As you do as well, so that they get different perspectives, because it is really quite fascinating. You know, there's so many people out there, you know, and have really interesting views and are very knowledgeable on different topics. And sometimes I think the job that we do is still enable them to speak. [57:01] And so that's what's happening. So Monday night, 8 p.m., join me and, or Monday night, say 8 p.m., join me, and, or on replay or whatever. And yeah, we'll see how, and as I said, there'll be more stuff. Don't forget the Daily Podcast as well. Above anything else, the Daily Podcast, the hardest working podcast channel in the UK, Peter, six a day. Who can better that? None. So, no. It's- The name you gave on next Wednesday, is that a pseudonym for Phillip Schofield, We Buy Any Car? Because that would be a weird program. Well, look, and Phillips taking a break, a much needed break. [57:42] Yeah, and we're not going there as well, yeah. Well, no, I just feel sorry for Gordon the Gopher. He's never been the same since. No, no, I think he's undergoing deep psychological therapy. [57:54] To help him through the difficulties. We will finish on that without going into anything. No, we're not going to, exactly. We're finishing on Gordon the Gopher. I mean, who says that Hearts of Oak doesn't go into all the areas that nobody else wants to go to. All the important issues, but I'll thank our viewers for tuning in. If you're listening later on Podbean or the podcasting apps, thank you very much for being with us. And for us on, what day of the week this is, on Monday, we've got Michele Bachmann. So I did a pre-recorded Michele a few days ago, obviously was candidate for the Republican presidential candidate in 2011, and is now Dean at Regent University down in Virginia Beach. So tune in on Monday for that, as you can watch that and then David later, or vice versa, I'll leave it up to you. The great thing is technology brings it to you post the event, so you don't have to just do live, but we'll leave that with you. And on that, I wish all of you a wonderful rest of your evening, enjoy your Saturday, have an absolutely wonderful weekend, and look forward to seeing you on Monday. So thank you and good evening.
The Simple Sophisticate - Intelligent Living Paired with Signature Style
A tidy sanctuary creates mental space to find calm more readily. Upon walking into my home, Le Papillon, knowing and then witnessing that it has been cleaned, tidied and unnecessary items have been removed, whether that be emptying the recycling basket in the boot & basket room (aka mudroom), countertops are cleared of extraneous items, and the flowers are fresh, I breathe some of the deepest breaths I ever take during my days. Distractions to the mind come into our lives in a variety of ways (I share and discuss 11 forms of distraction here), and one such way is clutter of items in our homes, items without a home, too many items, dusty, dirty, disorganized spaces, counters, windows, fabrics, floors, etc. No doubt, I am not sharing anything you don't already know. But how do we tend to our homes and still have time and energy to live the lives we want to live? I will admit to being nearly totally in alignment with Simone Beauvoir's train of thinking shared in her book The Second Sex when it comes to house cleaning, “Few tasks are more like the torture of Sisyphus than housework, with its endless repetition: the clean becomes soiled, the soiled is made clean, over and over, day after day.” And if there was a magic wand to wave whenever the house needed its regular clean and tidy, I would wave it without hesitation regularly and often. I recognize that some may find calm in the practice of cleaning, and that is fine; however, what would you do if your house was perpetually clean? Think of all the time and energy you would have remaining to do something constructive, explore a curiosity, read a book, rest your eyes after a long, grueling, yet productive week, spend more time with those you love, spend more time in your own company getting to know yourself better, take a longer walk with the pups, snuggle with your cat who is seeking your company after having been at the office all day. I share the possibilities of what we might choose to do with more time, regular time consistently available, to point out that while cleaning and caring for our homes is a necessity, there are many different approaches to doing so well to gain the benefits of such a space that is our sanctuary. Apart from hiring a regular cleaning service which I have done in the past and may do again in the future, even if they come every other week, or weekly, we still can care for our homes thoughtfully as well as simply in order to enjoy all of the time we find ourselves in our abode. And regarding the choice to focus on a small household, this can be viewed in two ways: whether small in square footage or living with only a couple of inhabitants (our furry companions count as family here on TSLL). So whether you live on your own as I do, with dogs or cats or entirely in your own company, with your partner, or are an empty-nester, living in a small household liberates us in multiple ways, and thankfully, requires less to clean and care for, giving us more time and energy to do so well. One of the chapters in my second book, Living The Simply Luxurious Life: Making Your Everydays Extraordinary and Discovering Your Best Self, goes in to great detail about “Living Small”, chapter 13, and one such reason is the reality that the smaller the space we call home, the less we have to clean. However, just because we may live, choosing to or not, in a small home doesn't mean the home can't be luxurious. In decoration, in organization, in consideration for everything, we can live luxuriously in a small home, and the beauty is, we have an advantage, we have less to clean, less to furnish, less to organize, now we just have to figure out how to do so wisely and with great savvy. Back in 2011 I shared a brief post detailing what to clean and how often throughout the year in our homes, pairing with the post a free printable PDF of this cleaning schedule, but it was brief and that was more than 10 years ago, so with the prompting from a TSLL reader recently who shares her home with her husband and pets, sans children (similar to myself, sans the husband), I wanted to update and share with you how to clean and maintain your home throughout the year so that when Spring does roll around you don't feel overwhelmed by the 'spring cleaning' fever that often arises. And I completely get it. It feels good to freshen up the entire house, but I don't have the time and energy to do so all in one swoop once a year. Rather, what makes sense to me is a steady, smart approach both in how and what I clean and maintain to avoid large repair bills due to lack of attention. Let's take a look at the list, and I will provide again, but this time the updated version, the free printable PDF schedule at the end of today's post/episode. 1.Begin with a home and its contents that you actually use and need In other words, this is a one off, not a regular practice, but something to keep in the back of your mind after you tend to it when considering bringing in new items to the home. Ask yourself the following question: “The stuff you own has to help you create the life you want. And if it doesn't, why is it in your home?” –Peter Walsh As I look around my own home, small in square footage but large to the eye with its high ceilings and multiple south-facing windows letting in oodles of light, I will tend to this question room by room throughout the year. Honestly, nothing is on a schedule now when it comes to this permanent editing as I have edited quite a bit over the past four years with my move to my home and with the construction over the past three years. For example, my kitchen cupboards and drawers received a thorough edit during the kitchen remodel when everything was removed and stored in my guest bedroom. Nothing says, reduce and eliminate the unnecessary when you have no more floor space in your guest bedroom to put anything. Do I really need that [insert item that I have never used, not once, ever]? Below is a list of space, collections and items to seriously look at and judiciously edit: Your bookshelves/library — Keep only the books that yep, brought you joy, but also that are sound reference books, collector items, and books you want to have on hand for any reason - to share, to recall a particular detail, but don't keep books just to have more books. They bring more weight, take up more space, collect dust and reflect you inaccurately should anyone scan your book collection. Your linen closet(s) — bedding, dining, bathroom, cleaning rags, entertaining, blankets, etc. Kitchen cupboards and drawers — as you go through this process, especially in the kitchen, keep a notepad with you, listing any items you know you need more of because one or two is not enough as they tend to be in the dishwasher or utilized when you need to use them again, or any item you simply need. Be stringent with yourself about letting go of items that just take up space, don't do an effective job and need to be let go. It will make finding what you need when you need it far easier and make cooking in the kitchen more enjoyable. Any drawer or cupboard where you store anything — in other words, know what is in your cupboards and don't use them to store things you never use. It is okay to have an empty cupboard. Say that again, and don't be tempted by the need to fill it. Clothing and coat closets —The seasonal wardrobe assessment is a great idea and goes more quickly each time as you get to know and love what you have in your closet. The coat (and I should probably add the outerwear accoutrement drawers/bins/shelves) closet will need to be cleaned and edited less frequently, but make sure you know what you have, have what you need and donate the rest. Épicerie/Pantry —Listen to/Read episode #109 — the 34 Must-Have Items for Your Home Épicerie, then read this post - 9 Ways to Organize Your Kitchen, Improve Your Health and Help Out the Planet Tea/Coffee Cupboard —In episode #7 of Season 3 of The Simply Luxurious Kitchen cooking show I share in the video a peek into my tea cupboard and how I organize it. Candle Cupboard/Closet — The suggested idea of designating an entire closet/cupboard to candles was the Petit Plaisir of episode #280. Assess what candles you have, what candles have never been used and why, donating those you will never use, and making a plan to shop and welcome in the ones you love when/if they go on sale, otherwise purchasing when it best fits your budget and often purchasing more than one to stock up. Bathroom drawers/cupboards/medicine cabinets — In your primary bathroom and any guest or powder rooms, be diligent and toss whatever is not used, has expired, etc.. As well, make a note of what you always need, what you are out of, would like to add to your toiletries to enhance your daily skincare and body care rituals and routines. Your furniture (chairs, rugs, tables, beds, dressers, desks, mirrors, shelves, lamps, etc. - large and small) — let yourself dream and be very honest with yourself. Where do you feel most at peace, comfortable, cozy, relaxed, productive, etc.. Based on what the function of the room is, do you feel what you desire to have created with your furnishings? Admittedly, once you have your list of what you need but don't have yet, it may take time. Have the patience because once you know how you want to live and feel in your home, the waiting is easier until you find and/or save up for what you know will fit perfectly in that particular space. Be a bit ruthless in letting go of items that don't serve a helpful or comfortable purpose and vow yourself to not just purchase filler items - an ill-made side table. Get creative with what you have to hold space until you have the ability to welcome into your home what you have on your list. Explore more specific décor posts here for customizing your home. Now that you have clarity that you either have what you need, or know what you need and have let go of the rest, you have let go of some stress, alleviated some unwanted burdens on your ability to relax when you arrive home and are ready to more swiftly and intentionally clean your home regularly without it becoming overwhelming, and maybe even a bit enjoyable. ☺️ 2. Daily simple habits that reduce the amount of weekly and monthly cleaning When we are at the point of burn-out even the simplest task of picking up after ourselves can be taxing. I can remember more nights than I want to admit while I was both teaching and blogging that I was too tired to entirely pick up the kitchen after cooking dinner before I went to bed. I literally needed more energy and going to bed was a necessity over cleaning the kitchen. Don't worry, I would without fail, clean the kitchen in the morning, but that was a task that didn't help to begin the day well. Stepping into a clean kitchen, a clean home each morning is a wonderful way to start the day and I knew that, but I did not have the energy to make it my regular practice on certain days of the work week. All of this built up to show me that I needed to make a change, so I share all of that with you to acknowledge, you may have an extremely busy schedule, so much so you cannot tend to these tasks listed below each day, but when you do make the necessary breathing room in your life to tend to these habits daily, it has a beautiful ripple effect of reducing stress, increasing clarity and giving you the ability to make better, more constructive decisions so that you never find yourself in such a schedule again. Okay, so what are the daily habits? In order of the day's events: Clear the bedside table(s) of anything such as water glasses, opened books (close and restack neatly), etc., so it is neatly organized when you return to bed in the evening. Make the bed Empty the dishwasher (if you ran it at night) Clear the table after breakfast (and after any meal), placing dishes in the dishwasher, not just in the sink. Run the dishwasher when full, or nearly full but on an eco-saver wash. Wipe the kitchen countertops after each use of the kitchen. Empty the trash when it is full. Empty any recycling bins when they are full to their exterior destination for pick-up on their scheduled day. Upon receiving/picking up the mail, immediately recycle any flyers/mailers/magazines you don't intend to read/use; open all letters and recycle the envelope and any contents you don't need. Place all mail you need to address in a designated basket or holder in the main room where you look at your mail. I do this in my Boot & Basket room and have a basket on the wall that is used for just this case (tour the room here). When it is time to pay bills or tend to business, I take the basket into the office. Place your keys in the same spot every time you walk over the threshold of your home from outside. Have hooks on the wall as necessary and/or enough hangers or bins in the coat closet/mudroom for your outerwear, dog leashes, scarves, umbrellas. Immediately deposit the items in their designated spot when you return home. Have a designated basket/bin for your reusable grocery totes, preferably near the kitchen and/or near the door you exit when you head to the market/grocery so that you don't forget them or lose them. Fold up blankets in the living room, snug, reading nook upon leaving the space. Resituate/Plump the pillows on any chair or sofa you sat in upon leaving the room. Clean as you cook: in between steps, not just after the meal is completely done. Return tea trays or food trays back to the kitchen once you have finished relaxing. Don't leave it to be picked up later. Vacuum as necessary throughout the week. I have a Dyson wireless stick vacuum which makes it super simple to grab, swoop across the floor and pick up any dirt or dust the pups may have brought in from a walk, pick up crumbs from the dinner I just made and with ease place the vacuum back in the closet. Once I purchased this vacuum (2019) I have come to enjoy cleaning a bit more because there is no tedious cord, no bending over, light-weight and dare I say, it almost feels magical how easy it is to tidy up. This keeps the house clean throughout the week and lets us live our lives as well. Here is a link to the one I have. A note about what you receive with the investment of purchasing Dyson vacuum cleaners as it was a step up for me price-wise and I pondered it for a while: The customer service is spectacular, swift, knowledgeable and helpful for any question I have had to learn the basics. Also, with a two year warranty on the product, it wasn't until four years later that my battery needed to be replaced, and it was easy to do with their customer service. Free shipping and a warranty on the battery. Simple video tutorials for how to replace and install once it arrived. The customer service has sold me as a lifelong client as their products are high quality, high functioning and help available when I need it at any time. If you work from home, tidy up your desk top/office at the end of each workday, prepared for a clean slate the next day. Make sure to have a presentable garbage bin (small) in your office. I use one from The Citizenry, and while my style isn't no longer available, they still make many small baskets that are perfect for a waste basket. 10 Ways to Make Your Office Desk Space Efficient and Inspiring 3. Choose one day during the week, an afternoon or morning (early or late), that you can designate 1-2 hours to clean Now, again, I am not someone who enjoys cleaning, and when I used to write this task in my planner, I sighed a bit because I would have rather been doing something else, prior to retiring from teaching, it would have been just having more time to relax at my home, now it is time to create, to explore, to be with my pups without a vacuum or a cleaning rag/mop in my hand. However, #3 on this list is a be a misnomer because you don't have to do all of the same cleaning tasks each day of the week, rather you are going to alternate a few. Let me explain. It was an aha moment for me the first time I hired a cleaning service to regularly clean my house: they came every other week. And I thought to myself, how can I possibly wait two weeks to have my house cleaned? After all, for years I had attentively cleaned my house each Friday after work, no matter what I was up to later the evening or how long my week had been. Well, what I discovered was that if you clean it well every other week AND tend to the daily habits shared above, your house will be just fine, and you will be less stressed and have more free time. What to do each week (every other week tasks designated as such): Vacuum everything - the floors, hardwoods, carpets, rugs, upholstered furniture, pillows, window trims, etc. Clean the stovetop (aka the hob). Get some good dish soap and water, some stainless steel cleaner if necessary (I use EZBrite as it is environmentally friendly) Wipe down the fronts of the dishwasher, refrigerator (use EZBrite for these as well if they are stainless steel), cupboard fronts, and around the handles as they tend to get the most dirty from being touched frequently. Every other week: Wipe down doors, near the handles to remove prints, etc. Every other week: Dust (I used to do this each week. It is unnecessary.) Every other week: Mop all floors. I used to do this each week, but no longer do. If it was a particularly dirty week, I will mop, but so long as I vacuum regularly, remove my shoes and wash the paws of my pups when we return from a dust-filled/mud-filled walk, the floors stay presentable until the following week. Welcome fresh flowers into the house - between 1-3 small bouquets placed in the living room, bedroom, dining room, foyer or office, I either pick them up at Trader Joe's or source them from my own garden during the warmer months, sometimes picking one up at the farmer's market. Clean/wash bed linens. Air dry the sheets to ensure they last longer, especially linen sheets - NEVER put them in the machine dryer as it is too harsh of heat. Wash any regularly used towels - bathroom and kitchen. Clean bathrooms that receive regular use, this can be done every other week depending upon how heavily the bathroom is used. For bathrooms used occasionally, monthly is fine. Clean mirrors and windows/glass doors, removing fingerprints as necessary. Go through the refrigerator, assessing prior to heading out for your weekly grocery outing. Wash your dog/cat food dishes. If you have a microwave (I do not), clean inside and the front window/door. Clean switch plates for regularly touched light switches. 4. Quarterly/every 3 months/Seasonally Many of the items on this list will come from tasks shared in #3 that don't need to be done as often depending upon how you live, or need to be done more frequently that are listed below in #5. Thoroughly clean all trash canisters/recycling bins Dust lamps, shelves, any place that can collect dust that you can't reach easily, or isn't seen or used regularly. Dust computer screens - this may be done more frequently, but at least every three months. Launder all blankets used in the living room or in snugs/reading nooks. Clean/dust/wipe down items in trays and vignettes on top of console tables, dressers, coffee tables, etc.. Store seasonal décor in a clearly labeled box or bin and place where it doesn't distract and is out of the way (garage, attic, storage space). 5. Twice a Year, during a day or couple of days that you have energy, so ideally after a day you have been able to rest One time of year I tend to many annual or semi-annual tasks is during the week between the years, that final week of the year when I am able to have time to myself and just rest, then be energized to tidy up which always feels good upon going into a new year. Here's the list: Clean all windows – inside & out. Flip the mattress *Clean and reorganize the pantry, this happens at least once a year, sometimes twice. As I become more clear about what I need and organized to refill when I run out as it happens, I have found tending to this once a year is enough. Thoroughly clean the refrigerator - remove the drawers, the lining on any side shelves, and clean, clean, clean. If you have been assessing your fridge's contents each week, this won't be a difficult task and should only take about 30 minutes. Clean oven thoroughly Launder pillows - I cover my pillows with liners (aka pillow protectors) and then place the pillowcase over the top of those. This helps to protect the pillow itself. *Wipe baseboards and moldings - this can also be done once a year depending upon the work you have had done in your home, how often you leave your windows open, etc.. Clean the kitchen range hood. Clean the filter in your dishwasher. Clean any bird feeders (this can be done more often if you have an active bird café). Clean under and around any furniture that isn't regularly vacuumed or moved. Clean the garage thoroughly, editing as you go. Have the sprinkler system (if you use one), turned on in the spring and winterized in the fall. Cover/Remove vent covers - for winterizing and then come spring remove and store. Exterior hoses, watering cans, non-frost proof pots in the garden - drain all water and store. Replace the water filter in your refrigerator or other water dispensing device (filter dependent). Clean gutters - this may need to be done only yearly depending upon the amount of debris that potentially can fall into your gutters. I tend to do this in the spring and the fall. ~Nelle was my helper cleaning the interior of my stove recently. Learn more about why I chose Le Cornue for my stove here.~ 6. Yearly as the time is right on the calendar/season for each task and your schedule The yearly tasks will be dependent upon your home, climate, and other variables, but whenever you tend to what you need to, choose a time that works with your schedule, budget and the best time of year to tend to this task, if it requires, for example, you to be outside. Service HVAC - this will prevent any surprises during the winter or the summer when you want to be able to trust your heat source or cooling source is able to work properly. Clean your fireplace if you have a traditional wood-burning fireplace. Deep clean any carpet and rugs, either done by a professional or on your own. Have any curtains or hanging fabric cleaned. Clean upholstered furniture (I sometimes do this twice a year depending on how heavily used each particular piece, and I do it myself with an all-natural cleaning product the cleaning company that used to clean my house recommended - Nurturals.) Clean around dryer vents and any vents in your home (above your stove, for example), where they leave the house on the exterior as well. Clean porches/balconies deeply, typically I do this in March just before I place my furniture back outside after being stored in the garage. Test and/replace smoke alarm batteries - write the date on the battery when you insert a new battery so you know how long it has been in use. This will help you decide if you should replace it as no one wants to be woken up in the middle of the night by a dead battery. Optional and dependent upon the city ordinances: Have your water back flow tested by an approved business (this is something we have to do in Bend if we live in the city limits). Phew! Okay, just looking back at this list may seem like a tremendous amount; however, when what you are taking care of are items and spaces in your home that bring you comfort, calm and repose, it becomes motivating to keep them at their best which is why I began with #1. When we remove what feels like a burden because we never use it, it simply takes up space or holds memories we don't want to revisit, then tidying up does become more of a chore. Once #1 has been taken care of, and you spread out all of these tasks over a year, it actually isn't that bad at all. In fact, while compared to the list I wrote in 2011, this list is quite extensive, due to the fact that I have a far smaller house (nearly half the size) than I did when I wrote the previously list, all that I do is far less and done far better which ensures that I can space out the time between tasks or when I do them more frequently, not have that much work to do. Compiling this list occurred on a wonderfully rainy day here in Bend which gave me much time to reflect on a year's worth of responsibilities, but also, as I wrote each one, I was also expressing gratitude, thankful to have a home to care for well. Which leads me to my final idea for creating more enjoyment of the task of caring for our homes, why not name your home? I know it may sound silly at first, but when we humanize the space that gives us life, safety, security, comfort, nurtures love and care, it reminds us that is more than four walls and in a way, a part of our 'family' so to speak, and that too helps in providing an internal motivation to care for it well. And with that to ponder, wishing you a wonderful start to a brand new season with Spring's arrival next Monday, the 20th.

Roy Jenkins looks at what some regard as one of the most significant developments for religious faith in Britain for generations: a practising Hindu in the highest office in the land. It's only 8 years since Rishi Sunak became an MP, so the speed of his ascent has been astonishing. But this is a Prime Minister from a very different mould to many of his predecessors: he really does ‘do faith'. Only it's not the Christian one. Roy talks to three Hindus in Wales to discover what they make of this the youngest Prime Minister in modern times, and the first ever Hindu in that role. How – if at all - might his faith and cultural background shape his personal and political values? And where – if at all - might these values cause him difficulty? Until his promotion to the role of Chancellor, few outside Westminster had heard of Rishi Sunak. Yet he rapidly created a favourable impression, introducing policies such as the furlough scheme and the popular ‘Eat Out to Help Out' to woo nervous diners back to the hospitality sector. It has to be said, Sunak has not been elected by the public at large – only by a majority of MPs of his own party. Nevertheless, his rise has confounded many expectations. And according to some Hindu believers, the portents are highly auspicious: Sunak was appointed on Diwali. Taking part in the programme are Vishnav Hindu theologian and teacher Akhandadhi Das, retired RE teacher Neera Vyas, and Dr Poonam Singal of the Hindu Cultural Association of Wales.
So Rishi Sunak, that bloke who couldn't use a contactless card, is set to bring total normality to No.10. How will this megabrained and approachable (he owns a hoodie) maestro, you may remember from such successes as ‘Eat Out to Help Out', lead us through this crisis? Plus, even if you've forgotten Liz Truss, the world hasn't forgotten us having her as PM – we look at the international reaction to her downfall. “Johnson's fervent wish to destroy Sunak will not have gone away.” – Tom Peck "People imagine Rishi Sunak provides some economic ballast because he worked in the City. But he's provided no credible economic case for Brexit." – Tom Peck "Individuals making economic decisions looked at the slate of policies, and were horrified." – Alex Andreou "The occupants of No. 10 Downing Street will be richer than those of Buckingham Palace." – Yasmeen Serhan www.patreon.com/ohgodwhatnow Presented by Andrew Harrison with Alex Andreou, Tom Peck and Yasmeen Serhan.
