Now, I had quite the moments with former BBC executive Roger Bolton on air yesterday.

It just slipped out of my mouth that Secere Stama is a wicked liar.

Bolton wasn't happy. Take a listen.

He's a wicked liar.

Who are you talking about?

Secere Stama, the Prime Minister, is an outrageous liar. You called him a wicked liar. Who are you talking about? Secere Starma, the Prime Minister, is an outrageous liar.

You called him a wicked liar? Yes, I think it's wicked. I think it's egregious what he's done. He said that he would raise taxes by around £11 billion. He's raised them by almost 80. Hold on, hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Don't you think. by scrapping Rwanda, the boat's crisis is worse.

He's a wicked liar.

What I would suggest this happens here is that all of us, and you include it, but certainly Donald Trump, are using language in a way we wouldn't have before, which encourages people to think there's a conspiracy against them, as opposed to very difficult issues with all governments have to deal with. I'm not going to defend the Labour government, as I wouldn't defend the Conservative government before for its record.

But what I do think we need to do.

I agree with you on that.

More respectful of politicians and the difficulties they face.

We don't need to be that respectable of the United States President to use his language

in that way. So the BBC should make absolutely sure he reports accurately, should apologise

when it doesn't. But can we tone this down? We are in a dangerous situation for liberal democracy.

There is a real question about whether it's going to survive in the United States.

I would suggest that all of us

try and understand the problems and talk in reasonable language instead of using language like

wicked. Wicked is not mistaken, saying somebody's mistake. It's a moral judgment on a man who's a

proven liar. Well, I make no apologies for describing Sekeir Stama as a wicked liar because he is.

That manifesto before the election was the greatest work of fiction since war and peace.

It was a fraud on the British people and it contained more factual inaccuracies than a Gary Barlow tax return,
