said the uk would stand with ukraine militarily, but it is all about arms supply. we learned that the eu target of supplying i million artillery shells by march will be missed because governments are not signing contracts with defence companies, which is pretty short—sighted, isn't it? companies, which is pretty short-sighted, isn't it? entirely short-sighted. _ short-sighted, isn't it? entirely

and it is one which the european union, as well as other countries, have to rise to the moment, rise to the occasion. we cannot expect america to always fill in for europe, for the uk. i think probably the support that this tory government has given to ukraine, to zelensky personally, is one of the strongest things the government has done. but i think it is the classic of, you have to say what you're going to do, and then you have to do it. there is a need to focus on making shortly military material gets there, that the contracts are signed with the suppliers. if britain can fill in when that is missing, we shouldn't hesitate to do that. i hope they would that lord cameron gave the date were not empty, they were at about the action that we are going to follow up with. your former boss are always made the point that europe needs to follow up with his own security. 40% of the european arms production is exported to third countries. it is not so much the lack of manufacturing capacity, it is the fact that we do not prioritise ukraine. when you look at the contract signed last year, production capacity is increased by 20—30%, or at least will be by spring. this is the time when european governments have to decide. ijust wonderwhether when european governments have to decide. i just wonder whether the debate within the republican party about the money and lead at the election may go next year, whether that really does have to focus minds in european chancellery is and government departments, because the united states might not be there? i united states might not

let's talk about the labour benches. let's talk about the other political row brewing. the conservative benches, relates to the supreme court's ruling yesterday, that the government's plan to send asylum seekers to rwanda is unlawful. the prime minister has staked his government's reputation, on finding a workable deterrent that would stop the boats crossing the channel. he has already spent £140 million of taxpayer's money on the current deal with rwanda. it seems they will invest more in the hope of solving the problem before the next election. but is a new bill the best use of parliamentary time? to paraphrase the former supreme courtjudge, lord sumption, if something is black you can't write a law to say it's white. it is not unusual for governments to promote legislation to change the law after an unfavourable judgment in the courts, but i have never heard of them trying to change the facts by law after a judgment in the courts. foras facts by law after a judgment in the courts. for as long as black isn't white, a person to sit in parliament to say that it is as profoundly discreditable. it is not that the land that is intending to do that, it is just that the systems are not robust enough to do that in the courts. nonetheless home secretary james cleverly insisted this morning the government will find a way. we believe that we can put forward a set of plans that will bring us completely in accordance with international law. the point i was making on monday when the reshuffles were happening and it's hardly listeners was lost, we successfully got some change on those pyjama injunctions that were being deployed last night to prevent the flights taking off. we can work with institutions, we can make reform. we can and we always will act within the framework of the law. but we are absolutely determined to do the right thing and make sure that this rwanda plan, which is part of our tackling of illegal migration, is up and running. we are absolutely determined to do that. timer;r and running. we are absolutely determined to do that. they are not lookin: to determined to do that. they are not looking to work _ determined to do that.

government, it basically said that it told them lies. that the home office had lied about how safe rwanda was, how robust the procedure was, the protection for any refugees. as you said, this is entirely a stunt to try to try to get one plane at least off to rwanda. the reality is, the government have arranged at some cost to secure 200 places in rwanda for refugees and asylum seekers. that is a drop in the ocean compared to the number they keep coming in small boats. the home office showed their hand to the supreme court when they said, actually, it doesn't really matter if rwanda isn't safe or if these procedures aren't robust, we think the prospect of rwanda will be such a deterrent that no one will come anyway. they actually want rwanda to be a threat. it is either a threat or a fair and a safe place to go. they know they want to use rwanda as a threat to scare people. the former chief justice of the supreme court is absolutely right, you can't be a prime minister says we accept the judgment and rules of law, we are now going to pass and rubber gloves to say that what you said wasn't right. rwanda has to become a safe place. that is a process that takes time. this isjust a recipe for, it was rejected in the house of lords, they will not believe anything will change in the day. and i think there is a recipe for a bogging down the parliament, when actually the country wants at the cost of living brought down, it wants something about crime being tackled, it was the health service fix. the priorities of the country are not the same as the government, but they want to be seen to be acting because they do not want to admit this is a failed plan that should be dumped. it is proving very difficult to tackle these ruthless gangs that smuggle people across the border. governments are looking for a deterrent and the uk is not the only country that has looked at a third country that has looked at a third country to process its asylum claims as a deterrent. the other issue is whether the convention is written in the 19505 work in the current severe, whether they are relevant to the situation we are facing today. all of those arguments are

likes the crown because he knows the story end and so he can read his ipad while its on in the background. and to be honest, judging by what has been written, that is one of the friendlier reviews. the telegraph said the netflix series has hit a dead end, the guardian that is has plummeted into the abyss. spoiler alert — since we are going to talk about it. season six, as it is, deals with the late 19905, including princess diana's death. one particular element divides opinion, and that is a rather odd cameo from princess diana's ghost. let's hear more about it. let's speak to nick hilton,
