Heartfelt tributes have been paid to the t.v. Presenter Caroline Flack who died on Saturday she was found dead in her flat in east London after she'd taken her own life a management company said the 40 year old had been under huge pressure since she was accused of assaulting her boyfriend Louis Burton a charge she denied with a presenter Laura Whitmore who replaced Caroline Flack on Love Island has condemned the way her friend was treated by journalists and on social media she started her show on b.b.c. Radio 5 Live yesterday with an emotional tribute you don't have to tear down someone to feel good about yourself because and only you are responsible for how you treat others and what you put out in the world I've had messages I've been harassed for just doing my job and this is where the problem is and I want to use my platform this platform to call people out because it's gone too far your words affect people to proper Razzi and tabloids looking for a cheap south to trials hiding behind a keyboard and off. And you could hear the that she was just about holding it together with a psychologist honey Lancaster James who worked on Levein and says you can never tell what people are going through people in the public eye are human just like everybody else and I think we do need to take some personal responsibility for the comments that we share are to think about what we're putting out on social media for example and I also think there needs to be better rules and regulations around that but again that's not to say that that was a causal factor here but I think we are talking about those issues as a result of this very very sad and tragic event and I'll be talking with honey Lancaster James later on in the program so are we right to begin apportioning blame here should we point the finger at i.t.v. Bosses Amanda Holden has this morning she said that they're responsible the tabloid press is it their fault. Or is it your fault for buying the newspapers don't forget it's a 2 way thing isn't it they print it you buy it you read it if you didn't they wouldn't print it keyboard warriors those of you who hide behind your keyboard and think your she usually important comments about how fast somebody is around talented somebody is really special is it your fault or is it something far more complex and I want to hear from you this morning I weigh 17312000 if you've got mental health issues today remember just think what it's like to have those mental health health issues and be well enough known to have people attack you every single day with Dr Audrey Tang is a chartered psychologist and she joins me now good morning doctor Good morning Patrick thank you for having me and you're very welcome 1st of all what is your reaction to this news now I know that and I don't want to be one of those people who sort of 2nd guessing this but clearly Caroline felt isolated enough to want to kill herself but what's your reaction it's a terribly sad state of affairs and partly a reflection I believe on on the way things are the moment and what I'm concerned about is this batting of the blame game it's not about who to blame next because if we just use the word blame we are we were refusing the responsibility that all of us have been all of us could take and by responsibility I don't mean to take the blame for anything but take that how it that we have to actually make a difference to make changes to make the world a little bit more positive a bit kinder. And my concern also is that a lot of the Kate there's a saying oh how could she have recovered from that she couldn't have come back from this it's not about that moment talking about somebody in emotional distress you're talking about recovery simple recovery and it shouldn't be to do with making a comeback in RINGBACK your professional career all something like that overall it's only. Part of who we all and that's where we're getting very lost and if I could I coach people every day with that concern that they're losing them selves in their job what must it be like for celebrities who are only seen as their role and then at that role. As people we draw them into our own psychodramas and then a lot of our visceral emotions in our sadness aunts of them when we see them in a situation that we can empathize with in some little way and I think that the problem here goes a lot deeper. When people because everybody's like you said coming out apportioning blame today and the tabloids are getting the blame but like I just said in my talk to you that the people Polly these top lawyers and anyone who's bought one and read one must take equal responsibility with the newspaper printing it surely it is about the responsibility for our own actions a lot of the time when we shame others when we have the shocking Freude that somebody else is getting it badly and we we feel a bit better about ourselves all of that it's often because we're trying to work out all right in issues and we're trying to help the away the doing so the whole problem about shaming others is that in a way it's become easy and it's become easy to write about it become easy to to keyboard warrior about it but that has consequences and I mean there's a beautiful quote from James Gilligan who's a psychologist who says I've yet to see a theory about the violence that was not provoked by someone feeling shamed humiliated already killed and the bad part is here Caroline Flack and so many other people have felt so shamed that that act of violence is committed against themselves that's the world we're in does this does that mean although we do apportioning blame is probably ill advised is stage anyway. Should should we all apportion blame to us selves to some degree maybe for the. Watching her oh I mean with his or other famous people in this position right now we're going to road absolutely absolutely we should take responsibility and realize that celebrity is exactly for what most that are human but we are human the human has capacity to do more than just a retreat we've got the ability where all words and actions have huge power and that also brings huge consequences we can choose to be kind we can choose to be white about what we do and it's about thinking critically about ourselves and thinking critically about what we're trying to gain here and why we're trying to do it to swanning thank you very much indeed Dr Audrey tieing So what do you think. Apportioning blame I 107312000 do you think she chose to be in the public eye and with that comes a certain amount of scrutiny get over it you can always not read it that's what I'm always told you can always not read it. A 173 was a 2715. And we have lots of issues with the train this morning. Because of. The trains we had. 30 minutes for services from King's Cross and. More than. That is suspended. Because of. Course And this just. For and to reading as well because of a signal issue in the West Drayton area so. We have. 2520 clockwise between junction 26. And junction 258 that's because of collision which involves a lorry and a car that must have happened at least half an hour. By the weather not quite. To work after the headlines at $730.00. Every. Day from. And not everyone is going to be as good as you are to them. By day. And. For me that is freedom free of liberty that's where I want to be. And a very good morning to this is b.b.c. Radio London and it's patchy here with Unison we'll be talking about Caroline Flack through the morning and I appreciate that that might rise raise some issues in your own own life or in your own mind so if you or someone you know has been affected by this story you can find help and support on the B.B.C.'s action line website b.b.c. . You case forward slash action line and of course there's always the Samaritans as well well just one London m.p. Is left in the Labor leadership race shadow bricks secretary and hope born and some punk Chris m. Paisa kids Dhamma faced his rivals for the top job at a hustings in yesterday Emily Thornberry the m.p. For something south and things break was pushed out of the race at the weekend off to failing to get enough support when our political reporter Susanna Mendonsa was at yesterday's hustings and joins me now good morning so Emily thaw out 3 left now Yes So yeah Emily formerly she needed to get 33 constituency Labor party nominations to get through to the next round she manage the she won and so yes she's out and to be honest I mean the 1st time around for the 1st round she needed to get 22 mpg he got in the last minute yeah she got 23 in the end since one I was very last minute so to be honest she's always been you know a behind in terms of actually getting that support so she's out but kiss Starmer is still in and of course ever Becky long Bailey is seen as the something to describe as the continuing. I know but that's not something I would describe her as was there you say yelling that you know she is the closest to Jeremy Corbyn and then Alisa Mandy is that the outsider and. So I think what was interesting yesterday is to see had 3 of them up on the stage and there's a London audience and they're all trying to appeal to Londoners and of course a lot of this race has been about you know that Labor needs to get out of London and be known London I suppose but they were. Well kissed on more of a season on that m.p. Say he was pitching as. Somebody who represents London but the other 2 were really trying to pitch themselves as people who Londoners could actually supports a long Bailey talk about London is also our heartlands we had at least an Andy talking about her background and she used to be a councillor in Hammersmith So talking about those connections so it's quite interesting what because obviously they're trying to appeal to the members but in terms of the focus of it a lot of it was about labor divisions all of them talking about how the party wanted to get on together exactly and be respectful and not briefing behind each other's backs that was one of the things that Rebecca long Bailey said that Kyrgyzstan was talking about the need for courteous debate and this is all I suppose reflective of what we've seen in the Labor Party certainly not just recently but over the past couple of years of you know the different factions kind of supposed disagreeing with one another and you know lots of goings on behind the scenes and certainly in terms of these campaigns it's been pretty vitriolic to some extent in terms of what you see on social media say all 3 of them referring to that but also talking about some of the biggest housing came up with the need for affordable housing was very important to a London audience you know the green economy was something that came out social care that's the case started talking about the need for a national care service so like a National Health Service but the care so lots of different issues coming up afterwards I was chatting to people he had been listening getting a sense of Labor members who you know will be voting very senior getting a sense of who they for had done well and this is what they said I was kind of undecided they said beforehand instead of maybe by the way they're going to I was really impressed by Lisa and therefore she were. Is outbreak a vision for what you wanted to reckon little babies vision about the Green New Deal popular policy but I'm still making up my mind although I'm kind of tilting towards key artists think right now our party's unity seems to be a unity candidate and he came across quite well doesn't think it was particularly good. Either to reinforce Rebecca Bailey which I didn't think I'd be impressed with the police around he was very good but overall it probably hasn't helped me make my mind up yet so as it is a few there's a career to go Rebecca along Bailey definitely has the policies. Is paying lip service to some things like national renationalisation of a utilities this feels Susanna land has been going on for hours and it's going to go on for a long. Now the realist it has been going on for of course you know the Labor Party lost by quite a significant amount in the general election back in December at their worst performance since 1935 at that point you had Jeremy Corbin announcing that he would be standing now but he's still not stood down he still you know standing in as leader as it were until they get a replacement and say we've got this kind of longing system of replacing the leader in the Labor party where you have to go freeze various rounds in terms of the leadership contest and so they're going to stop voting next Monday so the 24 February us remember start by saying so that's the real test voting closes on the 2nd of April and we'll get the announcement of who the next labor leader is on the 4th of April by which time is no more knockout and there's no you know that this is this is and this is it so the last These are the last 3 they've made it to the final hurdle hurdle so one of them will become the leader secure Starmer back among Bailey seen as the favorites but Lisa Mandy's is kind of dark horse you know she's somebody who people don't know a lot about and as they you heard in those rocks you know as people actually hear from her you know a lot of people seem to be warming to say quite interesting and of course when we get this announcement will be in the thr
