Across the UK, online, on DAB and on your smart speaker, the Independent Republic of Mike Graham.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have reached the end of yet another tumultuous week in these British Isles.

We have seen police officers attacked on the streets in daylight in Hackley.

Three men and a 13-year-old boy have now been arrested for that.

We have seen the government finally getting a backbone against the protesters

that have wreaked havoc all across the capital city of this country for the last two weeks,

and they have basically announced that there will be people jailed within 24 hours

if they riot on the streets of London.

That, for me, is a big step forward.

And as a result, Black Lives Matters will not be

demonstrating this weekend. And so hopefully London will be returned to its citizens. Those of us who

are lawful, those of us who understand what Black Lives Matters is all about. But for those of us who

do not want to see police officers falling off horses, police officers being admitted to hospital,

police officers with blood draining down their faces because they've been attacked by anarchists

and mobsters who think nothing of democracy and who want to break down and tear down everything

about Britain's history that we all hold and claim to be very, very dear indeed.

Some statues have been removed, Some statues are now being protected.

I'm happy about that.

I'm going to talk about that throughout the course of the day today.

We are here for three hours.

We are the home of common sense.

And our first guest this morning is going to continue to join us in that quest for common sense

...
