All that that is one thing good friends trip and the french trip is perfect lets bring in our White House Correspondent kelly halakhah joining us from just outside the white house so now that Mick Mulvaney has skipped that hearing hasnt testified really what happens next. Well this is assisting in the democrats case that this is obstruction of justice and drafting a sort of lengthy articles of impeachment isnt helping the president because what we have now is a string of witnesses that have refused to testify at the direction of the president or the trumpet ministration white house so this is certainly maybe in the short term helpful to the president but in the long term not so much because it does build this case now why was there such an interest in mcclellan veiny well if you recall just last month he held a press conference where he sexually confirmed what the president has long denied that there was a direction by president trying to withhold aid to ukraine in till there was a securing of a promise to investigate his political rival joe biden the former Vice President and you heard there the president talking as he left the white house denying this saying that his telephone call was perfect in fact he calls this investigation by democrats and these public hearings a hoax well well have the opportunity to see whether or not this is a hoax for ourselves because up until now well this is been a closed door process this opens up to public hearings beginning on wednesday and can really how much anticipation is there over.

Political parties are increasingly targeting voters online ahead of the upcoming British Election while the traditional media is tightly regulated some commentators say rules on social media content are not fit for purpose that looks at the digital dangerous to democracy and i think a straightforward question to labours brix it spokesperson and a prompt reply why would the e. U. Give you a good deal if they know that youre going to actively campaign against it well most of youre going to be doing what piers i have been talking to the e. U. But now look at what the conservative party of Prime Minister Boris Johnson made of it in a twitter post. That misleading it it provokes anger and ridicule from some but the conservatives stood by that video this is actually right now what we are concerned about its not the deep its what we would call it cheap fake so something that has been edited with a little bit of a Video Editing software doesnt have to be complicated but its still changing the entire message after video and it is something that is performing very well on the line and has a tendency to go viral.
