should be respecting their wishes. It continues, our politics should bring people together, even in the most terrible of circumstances. That is who we are as a country. Well, still to come, we'll be back live in Normandy with Charlie Peters commemorating

the 82 years since D-Day. But next, there's a new claim that the Bank of England removed Winston Churchill from banknotes because they were told he symbolised elitism. Guess which other historical British figures were labelled as divisive?

Well, Jonathan, Liz and Candice Holtzworth will have that and more with the papers next. This is Saturday Morning Live on GB News.

Welcome back to a Saturday Morning Live. Now, to look through the top stories of today, we're delighted to be joined by political commentator Jonathan Liz and journalist Candice Holdsworth. I'm going to start with you, Candice. Fascinating story we were just trailing there.

Bank axed Churchill for being too elitist. The Bank of England taking Churchill off banknotes. Is that really what's been going on? This story is so bizarre. So there was a furore about it early in the year, that they were going to be taking Churchill off the notes,

Jane Austen, and everyone was saying, why? Is it because there's a sort of backlash against historical figures that they represent colonialism or they're elitist? And people in the Bank of England denied it and they said, no, no, no, it's not the case. But actually, it's been revealed that they did do some research

and in some of these focus groups, people said exactly that. So they've now gone with like the blandest idea possible, like putting on animals or something. And people are rightly angry because I think if you... I know it's only banknotes, but if you're going to do something that's representative of Britain,

it seems like these are the people that you would choose, like Churchill, Alan Turing, Jane Austen. I mean, these are the people who've contributed so much to the world.
