Louis will be here in about 10 minutes from now.

He's going to be talking words for Valentine's weekend. You didn't forget. Are you in the doghouse. I didn't forget but I'm not sure I was sufficient. It's no easy you know. We're going to get live music from Genevieve Dawson who's a dry land Award winner. She's kind of jazzy foci coming in to sing for us between 111130. Or give us a lowdown on all today's sports.

A family favorite from calling them west college oh and we're going to play you again extraordinary. Events that occurred with a series of conch shells in our studio yes that I I'm still shaking my head as the was sore and I would and you can see it in here as well and I'll tell you how a bit later. So we got Byron Wallen on common cheese. Calling in West Allis Chinese families favorite would. You go live music. What more could you possibly. Told you was good. You don't need to leave the house not in a day like this. Unfortunately I've got to go to w 12. Well I have very very bizarre evening out yesterday. Because it was Valentine's Day. You know my wife and I are a bit long in the tooth for romantic candlelit dinners exorbitant prices in restaurants where everyone squeezed in and whatever but nor did I nor did I even have a frenzy cooking We'd been a bit busy during the day so we said let's just go and what some do something we often do which is to go and in our favorite Vietnamese restaurant overinsured it we hadn't booked but we figured it was not a sort of it's not an especially romantic restaurant it's not the place I would have thought that would be to have loads of couples in it and it didn't have loads of couples in it so we drove over shortage and I decided traffic trying to get across town yesterday 6 that you need new mists Robel but we got there and we did drive our continent. And we got we we got to the rest of the 7th day and it was one of the most bizarre events I've ever been to this was I want to say the name of it but it was one of those that you know there's a whole line of Vietnamese restaurants in shortage isn't there and I always go to the same one as a dish couple dishes in it we both absolutely love when we regulars and it's not expensive and it's not fancy but is really good and where the restaurant was absolutely packed Thankfully they had one table for 2 left for us in the corner but it wasn't packed with couples it was an entire the entire I could only ascertain was the entire congregation of an evangelical church but all dressed to the 9 all the men in dinner suits all the women in really wonderful gowns everybody looked fantastic and they all had hearts because it was Valentine's Day and flowers and they were celebrating Valentine's Day. But they were celebrating Valentine's Day And you know each to their own Mrs I thought it was wonderful not a criticism but it was all speeches about Jesus and God and how much they love Jesus and everyone was I learned your ring and we see it Mary. Essentially in the middle of a of an evangelical coke going about their business I mean it was sort of wonderful it was mad it was only in London and and it was I always think it is this normal on Valentine's Day The people are a lot better primarily love Jesus is their 1st love go and celebrate by the dinner with I didn't know what was going to go and the people in the restaurant were very known plus the Vietnamese people for me the Valentine's Day nor evangelical Christianity where their 1st thoughts were completely. You know I mean there was a lot of value in going to tell you that Albert was great I always say forgiveness is fantastic entertaining and these amazing lovely people I mean really nice people but Joy I mean all the men in tuxedoes and bugs always and all the women he ballgowns kill did not get praise for those sort and so but I just bring Rose I'll tell you. That's the last hours in shiver and shake. Her should go to the cinema perhaps we should go to the cinema or in Bedford because you can but you couldn't because it didn't have one which is why I'm now talking to Louis Holder who's won a. London Eye because he's one of the volunteers at the Deptford cinema and he's here to tell us more Louis tell us more hello how did you kids how did this whole project come about so it came about in May 2014 after a successful successful Kickstarter campaign that happened after people kind of got together and thought let's make a community arts value let's make something really exciting that involves a lot of different people let's make something affordable accessible inclusive that because that's what happened I said I'm Irish one of the only reason at Lewisham I was right and I have a cinema Yeah that is right and so it came about and then 2014 happened 2015 happened and all these years later we're still here still showing great films live music events gallery showcases all sorts where are you took us or where are you based in one place so we're based in one place one venue just on the right from Deptford bridge d.l.r. Station and also. Nearby to New Cross as well so we're kind of in the epicenter and up at High Street and what your home what was the building before it was a cinema so it was fun and I'm aware of the disused shop fronts for about 1520 years I think that was literally just a shell and it was I think it was an off license at some point yeah and so it's just a normal shot from the edge of the conventional kind of commercial space and then it got transformed into the cinema that it is today and when we talk about cinema I mean I mean I mean visiting a grand. Staircase is a nice means and all of them presume it isn't there it's definitely not that but it has so much more charm and I have to say it's beautiful it's this kind of sort of some of the venue that is what very beautiful and the past is 40 right so 40 downstairs at times of seating we've got loads more upstairs in the bar area in terms of like you know you can just chill much of film and be at the bar as well upstairs so and how does it work is it just think well I want to go to see the film and showing their moods or not or do you have to be a member or you don't remember now anyone can come and so really happy actually we're trying out this pay what you can scheme at the moment so it's completely accessible affordable to everyone and so we're trying to make it is extremely inclusive as possible so people can just walk in off the street and yet it's really really cool and what's the role of the volunteers in all of this because you're one of those aren't there yet so the volunteers we meet every Sunday 11 o'clock so meeting tomorrow for instance and then we talk about things affecting some are the moments we can invite you volunteers and really anyone to get involved in programming and all of that yet so I help program got a lot of stuff so yeah so help with the short film nights and do lots of lots of things like that but our programming is quite diverse Do you have a background in cinema is that your kind of is that what you do for work life so I actually just recently graduated from university in film just at university Westminster just around the world around the corner so it's kind of perfect for you in that sense yeah yeah I love it I think it's a home away from home. I love it and I just yeah it's pretty my favorite place to be actually and is it so financing or do or do you guys have to help pay for I mean how does that work I don't talk about. That so yes yeah it is financing so we're really lucky that we have quite a few donations coming in from people that come through but it's ticket sales and really we don't have any outside funding and so we're completely people run from the ground up and do you on the property or your you have a lease on it or what's the situation there. Just what I'm just nervous Yeah no that's the right. Yeah so I'm not quite sure actually about that I think it's kind of it's a community interest company so it's kind of owned collectively but I'm not sure about the admin side of things I'm just interested in the creative programming aspect and is there always room for more volunteers there's always room for more volunteers is it yes there is yet so people can just get involved they can go online to deficit org and find out more about us they're in something they can just turn up if they want to an event and this is also a model that could be done elsewhere so if there's people sitting in bits of London that aren't well cinematically served do you think they could do this there yes absolutely yeah I think helped to kind of spring up quite a few senilis so in also around in the neighborhood as well communities in a Mars also yet of this new developments as well happening in the area but things like as of are the result of d.c. Kind of coming along we've had current Goldsmiths down the road that's not coming cinema so to speak but but it's still great that it's kind of inspired this or cinematic influx in the neighborhood but also we have a membership with cinema for all as well so we regularly go each year this is a kind of body that represents commutes and miles across the country and so we regularly talk to people from different communities and we have different audiences who actually help other places as well so it's a really it's a lovely collective of people who just really have a grassroots interest in film and the idea was on this weekend oh well I know that I know that yes there have been times they we had to question his 1st love which happened which was a new release as well so are. We were lucky to have gotten that film and yeah I give you some more info because I've just been told you are going to be showing Machinima a life in 4 chapters from 1905 to Japanese film isn't it yeah and then you've got a labyrinth eighty's party on Friday February 25th the day that's what are you coming back oh yea I'm always big. Yeah you got a labyrinth id's part you voted for Green 21st and that's a fundraiser I believe is a fundraiser that's for all traveling cinema projects was to tell me about that the trappings of my project is something that we were very lucky to have one funding from about a year and a half ago from film by media and that was a funds to basically help deliver travelling said m r 2 different people in the camera's homes activity centers kind of across southeast London and that's been really helpful and really great receives that's pretty much one or 2 screens a month for the moment and that's basically a portal project and it's a portable kind of system where we can show films to everyone really about south side of our venue so it's great fantastic give us the website addressing. A dot that said I'm Our dot org And we've been hearing about that from Louis holder Louis thank you very very much yes. In woman new. At Electric Light Orchestra l. You're listening to the wrong show here on b.b.c. Radio one the thought that man's enthusiasm for cinema was fantastic and by catching. On really got back and got the pictures I mean I saw stopped going because I went to a it was a lot of films I went to I didn't enjoy I've come talking about 2 or 3 years ago and I kind of stopped my wife never stopped she's always gone to the pictures use always love them always going to to gigs that's always been my thing but in the last year or so of my real effort to try and see the films it but if his films people are talking about and it's big and so I probably want to go once every 2 weeks I reckon but it's been really really enjoyed maybe it might be on once every 3 weeks Bob really enjoyed it and I'll see some good films unfortunately do see some rubbish but you know that's the nature of life and he right it's 1030 here on the show it's time for the news headlines.

Is London if there's anywhere Albert where there's a full English I'm sure there's one image. And this is London why it's called 9 Elms because there are 9 ounce other words and there are 9 Elms again now I have no idea of actually why it was called. London they can put bring Cross mental lake in regions then I'm totally happy to have to leave northwest to not be modest maybe it's a big station it's a big. Bus in London. Perhaps it's because my mum was a clippie but I've always got friends to drive in a bus but only if I got the full proper kit on the cap you know like the old school uniform used to have I'd want to be that but I do think didn't exist anymore but it must the been quite a nice job to be a conductor. But you reckon with that ticket my memories of the ticket machine I'm a part of this as a kid it was the best to wear that really heavy metal ticket machine when it won them and I had won as a kid because I've been moms well. Now what one of their. Goals Stevie Wonder and yes that I which was Valentine's Day of course and it's a tie for well lots of corny stuff like chocolates and flowers and balloons and poetry so. Corny code I did though as we all know we have a poet amongst us we have our resident white in the Holloway Smith way more come back to the show thank you hello it must be Sade the bad kind of dog ruled raw and that you get in Valentine's called Soul love thing that must be the bite of your life is upon It's called funny to read them like my mom always gets me that it's like enough of Valentine's Day last year I'll be there with. Christmases and stuff yeah I joined signs to my son but she puts sun in like. Speech marks so I don't know maybe you want to tell me something yeah. Now before we go any further talking about your heritage can we talk about your glasses I think the radio but that is a spectacular new pair of being Sankey so much I'm trying to cover as much of my face as possible and these ones are doing the job of very large Yeah I think. I want glasses to be a performative element of my appearance. That they're in there doing that you know they all definitely doing the job I Can't Take My Eyes Off. Well that's good to know yeah I'm just sorry for all of the listeners that Considine well put a picture up if you were close it's a real life. In fact just since like 2015 all right yeah and then my sites like rapidly decreasing it does yeah Ok that one of the 3 blind mice and I didn't wear glasses as a kid although looking back I probably should have done well it was only when I put glasses on as a light like that I realize that when I see before that yes. You know that when they leave that thing that they put the lenses in that testing you and then they put another patch they change it again and I was like God These ones are terrible and I was like No that's just your eyes Ok yeah anything I should maybe actually get some glasses oh you've got some very spectacular glass testing so let's do so given the sort of the raw Dogra love poetry of called sickly thing yeah it's not what you would do but how do you feel about love poetry in general because there was some great love poetry isn't there yeah there is like some of my mates are really good as well but I can't really write I don't know every time I try and write well and. I have to do something or a book. Where you have to undermind Yeah it's like I guess it's like a roundabout way of saying loads of stuff is kind of. Also I love it in apologetic way I don't know yeah Fay Weldon once said to us like I know what you ought to be and I was like you know if they were out in just like a normal year there were you know well my Auntie she said you do something nice then you do something horrible and then you do something nice again and so are brilliant kids. Is that what your wife said. Yes probably actually but if people are trying to write even it's not poetry necessarily Yeah but if you're trying to write it's my job if we're going to someone's birthday awaiting as my voice hands me the card as you write it on my cars I'm words that I'm words and so false only to try and watch something I have a witty or touching or charming or you know I mean it's not worth a lot of pressure on the people who you write in the card to have an expectation on you as well or. Because me so I'm supposed to be good. At City Life write anything for someone's wedding like to read it in a ceremony Well no I mean but I am available for any weddings party I love making speeches. Seriously I mean I if I go to weddings are not invited to speak or I'm sitting at the please ask me to. Just absolute I really really like making speeches I don't write them I kind of work. But it's my favorite thing to do which is weird because everyone else is their least favorite It was my least I had to write like I'm not too original wedding poem to read my friend's wedding and I for the 2 weeks it was just like a week it was just like a fortnight long on a flat shock with them and I just thinking I could because he's buying in the middle of the ceremony I could ruin this for them if because maybe I'm I make a joke the half of you people but like the mother of the bride doesn't and then everyone has a lovely wedding and shame about like I said. Did you get through go for it or. You have written something 1st and this is yeah I ever year Id try to write a Valentine's Day thing for my girlfriend. And this is this is one this is one of them yeah go read it. Love Minus love can still be love if you hold it up to the light at the exact right angle diamonds winking off its underside same yellow as the fox dead and mine in the warm breath by the night myself staring down its dragged open chest its stomach a smug done in a green recycling bin clapping roadside I go too far often since 1st I saw you whip your friends on the dance floor I'm finding he moves in each place I put my finger on picking them out my minestrone see my lentil and tomato Whew before I put spoonfuls of it in my body I'm crying at the speed of cars now a days into every hopeless piece of myself Sara what it takes to stay alive I can't die well if you're dancing oh oh I see what you did there you did something wrong with. Your fight well did there rely on outright but it is difficult we'd love this is the most written about thing another there was some fantastic stuff in there and you managed to introduce a diamond for example without my get it sound corny. It's funny the better for me is the weapon a friend because the 1st time we properly met was someone else's wedding and we had a dance of I'm incredible dancer and you know that brilliant. And I was saying to her war movie was weapon a fringe if they cut her hair off she devoured nothing now it's all kind of that was how I go I think nagging I think. It's but I do think that particularly if you're writing to your partner you know there are going to be those I mean that's a very intimate moment about free Jay I mean something to you and yet it might not to others and that's always a really good thing to pick one thing like that the color. Chimes in inevitable court and you can get why we're if you like. Yeah you can even soak up all of that folks being dumped in the bin Exactly which is no it's not one of the most romantic . Gabrielle resent c.e.o. Ever none of those people were really in those chords but I feel like that's where we have to take it nowadays you know do you read I mean do you read was that you do you read John Donne do you read classic I sometimes the like but not very often now I feel like you kind of after I read them at school and I and then I try and let people that are coming out I find excitement kind of that you know you can listen to a Kinks song every now and again I'm like and it feels nostalgic and lovely Oh I be don't I don't like I only listen to the king not something I listen to all the new bands because I'm like see. I don't ask me to name a new band so I was always going to get all she did I became so yeah. But it's interesting though is that with when you write a poem like that yeah how long is that going to take you do you reckon most of the options in my head. In the run up to like say somewhere like Valentine's Day So the actual writing of it down takes like 10 minutes or so but how long would you've been thinking about yeah like 2 or 3 weeks sometimes up to like a couple of months than a year. I mean if I'm funny one of my mates said as a member of the r.p.c. Which is the Regent's Park cycling club which is why a group of guys are I can verify that Bob loves giving a speech and then you know when every year I give a speech of the early years. And with those kind of always fun to get if I'm giving us what you're waiting on given as we. Might be I my own 60th birthday party this year and I get to speak about me it was fantastic. I mean the subject matter in some ways but what I did it's exactly the same as you. For 2 or 3 weeks before in all the moments where I'm not doing something else I'm thinking about that well I'm sort of giving a shape and all I really know you really I really have is for your 4 little points like your dead folks on like the domino like the fringe Yeah and you pick on those and then you can construct stuff around that yeah idea see that is quite a bad film actually I heard you talk about films earlier how about Ginsburg's how I Jane Frank. Got forgive me for watching a film with him in which was Ginsberg but then they reconstructed this interview where he said something like that like I knew I was going to start here and I knew I had to get to the next pair and I heard the in my head I just had to fill in the got yes that's exactly how it goes to me Have you written prose and healing. A few bits and pieces but not very good narrative especially Linnean that if I think both sometimes a matter Yeah I mean it when your yeah maybe it doesn't. I'm not as good at it to be honest but I enjoy enjoy reading kind of fragments repros quite a bit it is because on. You know I watch books every now and then I write nonfiction books really but I'm currently trying to write a novel and I have I mean I was a I was a published novelist at 20 I was a penguin novelist at 27 well so I have done it before or not very well I don't think but I'm on another gun now and it's such a different and difficult process yeah because an uneven with poetry is the same because if you're writing a nonfiction book you've got even if there are malleable you've got a degree of fact you know I mean that you're on yeah yeah that will you know you're writing about that there is in fiction you can go where ever you like your God You can kill him off if you don't like him anymore you can suddenly change gender you can just see what I write you know and therefore the possible is already in place and that's a real problem if you ask why so many people basically just write about their own lives yeah sings the name yes and sometimes they don't even change the name. Of ticket to do just that because it would be easy but I do think it is and that's why they say write about what you know because you're there for grounded in something to the point the problem with old Anything you might get is that the possibility is a horrendous Yeah I imagine that must be a really difficult practice and enviable in some ways but it must feel great when you've stuck out like must take so much stamina to like that's the problem you know it's just the energy really often involve people who could not call fiction books which there are I've got might want to hear and I've done for 2 or sometimes even one and a half a year and have done for 20 years yeah I just do it is a discipline involved in that there is beyond Now the aid to Egypt every day or or the. It's interesting that when I was right in the not like the the London I got up every morning at 5 o'clock and I worked until light didn't have a set amount of words but a set amount of time you know so I thought well I'm working for 3 hours of which at least some of that I will write some work. And I would get there and the other the other why I write and the and this is true of on my fiction or nonfiction. A chat for example takes as long as it takes Yeah once it's done it's done right no going back yeah you know that for me is really important I can't be working to direct I can't be going backwards and forward so it's got to be a constant forward movement even if that chapter is taken you a month and that one it took you a week yeah you then move on to the next either like people some people like super plan now everything and it's almost just filling in the blanks on the other people like my friend Joe so dumb former submarine It was yeah and he said he didn't know what the character was going to do from one page to the now either but I do know I have an ending Well you know I mean by and I know a kind of a couple of the major things that will happen eventually and I think it from a writer and particularly nonfiction which there's no evidence of any good is a journey so you go on about and it's in my mind it's a journey by sea and I get seasick so you get on a boat and you know you're going to go to an island somewhere I've read that you can't see yet how you get there and what happens on the way that's a mystery that's revealed by the journey Yeah that's an interesting way of looking at it problems I do you have endings and beginnings I I used the. N and in and then I read this thing but it's American poet said if you know how a poem is going to end it doesn't count as a poem. Yet so now I don't I don't I have like maybe a line that I'm going to use at some point or maybe begin with and then everything else just goes on from there I have no idea how I didn't know what that was what the plane was going to do until until I'd written it really do you. I have a story of lines and words and phrases in your head I have some in my phone. Yes sometimes and sometimes i just because my notes I've got this phone called a fair phone which is like quite a rubbish phone but like it's kind of ethical So yes I think I'm in China but i'm so you know it's kind of rubbish so I kind of what's up to move my girlfriend with these lines I think she gets a bit irritated about it and it ruins the surprise especially if I'm trying to write her. If you seen a lot of it I don't know. Maybe I just thought was off and into someone else but you know they want anyone to steal my ideas with them but that thing of like for example this book this fiction book I'm trying to write I've had the title for it for about 10 years literally 12 years and I've just carried that top all around not really knowing what it was a Bell Yeah but just thinking that's a great thought for a book yeah and now I'm trying to write like Michel one of the books about but other we're totally so interested did he do you read Who are your favorite novelists and what do you have would you read a novelist for inspiration or do you just sort of place anything like that in the opposite right. I mean I do have favorite novelists and they tend to be kind of my American Zo you find that we don't really get Richard Ford. Of. That sort of quite muscular men now I'm not saying that's what I want to do that night but there isn't really a British equivalent of that I mean more and I missed some it was maybe a bit close but yeah. My name is but that's not my thing he got progressively worse yes I think you're absolutely correct I think the other thing is I have a real and it's true in everything I've written I have a real desire to try and write. Teligent maybe even intellectual that's when for other people the does saw a. Kind of working class fiction Yeah if you see what I mean yeah there's so much of our fiction is dominated by kind of the Hamps need a miss nothing wrong with a lot camps it is beautiful but a kind of a very middle class world view where I sound so much of African immediately you know the fire ignite within me and I could speak about this forever now I'd love you to write but like maybe not a lesson when you do as well in your poetry Yeah you many many ways that's 3 Yeah we could we could start some kind of what they'd like literary movements like the Bloomsbury group but like a working class one that we've done it would be real fun and I think is what we're lacking a bit at the moment I mean there are many lots of great diverse voices Yeah there is one of the voice is kind of a bit lacking Yeah really like like Alan Sillett but without just having to play into the working class tropes of like violence in Yemen i.z. Yeah absolutely but you know each to their own I'm not most of the time or farmers overreading Sherlock Holmes or Agatha Christie or saying just because I don't know I'm not going to write like that really. Sharp enough to read and I already do you know what do you have to get people asking for advice on how to write poetry advice and yet Yeah what I say. I just try and tell them to write into the particular so they say what did I say right specifically and in detail as opposed to an abstract Yeah so lots of people you know they write about love or something but no one really knows what that means the that So what is your particular type of love look like that's what I want to know like how can you use detail and specifics and ruin your experience of what you've seen in the world to kind of articulate. A particular type of love that I wouldn't know about otherwise I think that's probably the thing that's really interesting approach as well because sometimes part you can the very concept apart she sounds airy fairy it doesn't it sounds ephemeral in a theory Illinois all of that whereas you want it to you want to you want to feel you want to know what it means in your bond you'll know what it looks like at the end of your street Why that's exactly why I think there's so many people there in the mine as well. Hopefully this kind of new generation of. A goner. Reestablish the kind of ways that people think about what poetry can and can't be that way can't be but what it what it can be it's possibilities and stuff that's all I'm excited about and there is some extraordinary poetry out there yeah loads of it all over the shelf did you add to your partner like the poem she did like I mean like I think she just yes she does icon of condition that like the poems that I write I think Well she I deny her favorite poem is not me I don't. Know it's not me the. Right reason but why should I write was definitely the funny and I was on the radio with this thing in my live recording for radio for my my daughter came from the audience and then afterwards she kind of k. Walking home she said she was 8 and she said Can I give you some feedback and she's like yeah my favorite you were my favorite poet my favorite poet if I could say if this is Ok Was Mary Jane Chan he was another I think and I was like Ok why is she so I just thought she spoke more eloquently than needed. Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Yeah yeah. Yeah very funny yeah so I'm on her 2nd favorite How would you do that She's 9 now yeah and precocious is she writing she does she likes fiction and she's writing a story about a pirate that this guy says herself as a teacher at the moment is very funny she's very funny I think so often there's a surprising amount of humor in what she writes is quite sophisticated for a 9 year old I am often so shocked about it I mean I think that. So many people say they can't write our I can't account that it's because he gets knocked out of the school was so badly. You know I mean in the same way as poetry is taught badly in languages that so badly Yeah writing is to very very bad my Stevens I find university Harper like Khan with the expectation that you read poetry for answers as opposed to like as an experience and assuming he teach them not and you show them some new stuff that can be read like that they start to really enjoy it and if only they come a lot of I'm thinkin. I wish this wasn't I wish this was an option or more to about I could choose not to take and then by the end there are don't realise you could write a list or you could like like one go Chrissy Williams made a spot of my playlist there's a poem which is a type. That lots of different forms that you you know it doesn't after be a sonnet you can make up your own constraints currently and that's what lots of clever people clever the meeting at the moment there is I think one of the things for me about writing and we talked about this before where we've got a minute and whether it's poetry or prose or fiction the musicality of the words is always central Yeah I mean at least it's the means it has its own internal music doesn't it really does its work on you before you even understand the poems about a lot of the time but a lot of people when they're writing down stuff if they're writing essays for school or college or they're writing letters or they don't read out aloud to them so you've got to do that because then you'll hear our sound stream. Yeah I often. Worried I don't do that enough. But you know what as a real musicality Yeah it does eventually you read our media out and then you know which where you find the meter Yeah right and yeah as ever I do I've enjoyed talking poetry and words and even Valentines with Wayne Holloway Smith and I think they're fantastic as ever so thank you very very much you're listening to the show here on b.b.c. Radio. Coming up for the rest of my show we're going to be getting some live music from Genevieve Dorsey we'll hear about the pull of the sport from Pitts the reports we're going to be climbing aboard the time machine and getting a family 5 from Colin in West Village all of that still to come here on b.b.c.

Dying the head of the Royal Navy on Iran and Russia we are seeing more Russian activity in the North Atlantic than we've seen for more than 3 decades and we're having to respond to that we have to ensure that we're on the top of our game and the new Little Women film we've been talking to the director Gretta go against all Florence pew and social Ronan who tells us about mansplaining in the film industry I'm going to keep talking until he shot all if girls can feel supported and often they're on film sets to go I'm going to keep talking until you stop talkin which is what we did then that's going to break through the b.b.c. News is read by Neil Slate The government has to pass a law to stop any extension of the breaks that process Boris Johnson's withdrawal agreement is doing clude a new clause when it comes back to the Commons saying trade talks cannot be taken beyond the end of December 2020 critics say this puts no deal back on the table and labor called the move reckless Here's our political correspondent in Washington cutting through the post breaks it's transition period which is due to conclude at the end of December 2020 can be extended by mutual agreement for up to 2 years but on Friday the prime minister intends to expunge this clause from his withdrawal agreement bill and instead explicitly rule out any extension. This is designed to underline to those leave voters put back as part of the 1st time it is determined to deliver brags that government sources say that having a hard deadline will also focus the minds of both sets of negotiators on achieving a deal but critics say that's a relatively short transition period opens up the possibility of leaving with North trade deal at all the shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry warned privately in September that Labor's chances of winning the election would be hampered by taking a neutral position on breaks it speaking to the b.b.c.

The London Fire Brigade has been criticised for its management and staff training just months after similar issues were raised by the Grenfell tower inquiry a report by the watchdog a Chairman Specter of Fire and Rescue Services said the brigade was wasteful and some commanders had not received proper training the new commissioner said he was committed to making improvements. A major review of a decline in the number of rape prosecutions and convictions across England and Wales says the criminal justice system is so under-resourced it's close to breaking point but the report from the Crown Prosecution Service inspectorate found no evidence that c.p.s. Lawyers were taking cases to court only where convictions were easy to achieve Here's our home affairs correspondent Danny sure the report says the decline is partly because fewer rape cases are being referred to the Crown Prosecution Service 1st charging decision and because police are taking longer to gather evidence Kevin McGinty the chief inspector who led the review appeared to blame a shortage of resources saying the number of rape allegations lost in the investigative process was damning but the report dismisses claims made by campaigners that the c.p.s. Is being more selective about the rate cases it prosecutes in order to bolster success rates in court the American aircraft manufacturer Boeing is suspending production of its 737 Macs from next month the plane has been grounded by authorities around the world since it was involved in fatal crashes in Ethiopia and Indonesia which left more than $300.00 people dead from New York similar Hussein reports Boeing is one of the biggest industrial companies in America and one of the country's largest exporter pulling its most profitable plane from the skies has already cost them $8000000000.00 And that figure continues to rise in a statement Boeing said it will halt production beginning in January of 2020 that the company has $400.00 planes in storage and will focus their efforts on delivering those aircraft to customers holding production is an unprecedented move and will have ripple effects across the u.s. Economy it will also have an impact on suppliers and airlines around the world. Psychologists working with refugees and migrants on the Greek island of Les boss have told the b.b.c.

The European Space Agency will today launch its 1st mission dedicated to the study of thousands of distant planets the co-op space telescope will spend more than 3 years taking precise measurements to try to find out more about the composition and structure and about how they evolved it's 6 minutes past 6 time for our 1st look at the weather Helen Willis is over at the b.b.c. Weather Center good morning Helen and nothing good morning to you quite as you spell of weather ahead for many of us today but with quieter weather and high pressure comes or come other or Tom the winter problems that of ice and fog so let me start the data where we do have the exception to the quiet story that's across southeast England east of England in Lincolnshire where it's cloudy and it's pretty wet this morning actually there's lots of spray and standing water on the road so you'll need the windscreen wipers and that rain will pulse on and off throughout the rest of the day it's quite murky over the hills here temperatures 10 or 11 it's relatively mild now away from southern and eastern parts of England so the rest of England along with Wales it's a very different picture it's cold it's Frosty this morning and we've got folks in very thick fog through the veil of York the North West Midlands East Wales for example and here it might linger for much of the day temperatures will struggle there for to get above freezing freezing fog but elsewhere by the odd isolated shower for the Irish Sea coast much drier with good spells the sunshine but we're still only looking at about 6 or 7 degrees Celsius today hit Best Northern Ireland also having a frosty start the focused out into form as well so that's around for the rush hour but again once that case it'll be drier than yesterday with more sunshine and temperatures of 5 or 6 degrees Celsius we're concerned about amounts of snowfall and ice in particular cross Highland Morea and Aberdeen should Scotland this morning but the showers become confined to the north and south today and so they'll be increasing amounts of dry and sunny weather but don't expect it to be warm today temperatures only rising to $56.00 degrees after that frosty start. Hello and thank you very much the time is 8 minutes past 6 let's have a look at today's papers and several of them lead on the government's plans to put the idea that the BRICs a transition period will not be extended into law notably the Telegraph Johnson to enshrine 2020 bricks it in all this is along side a big picture of and the prime minister with some of his new M.P.'s when they arrived at Westminster yesterday the Telegraph says this will prove to voters that Mr Johnson has no intention of using his new power to pursue a softer breaks or to some leave campaign has had feared the Financial Times headline Johnson found bricks a transition raises fears of cliff edge and next year it says that although he's determined to course suggestions he will use his 80 strong House of Commons majority to sideline Tory euro skeptics there is speculation that has helped fuel an enthusiasm enthusiastic market reaction to his election victory and the labor supporting papers looking at the leadership contest there the Daily Mirror leaders ready for a showdown they've got to grasp on page 2 of lease and then they kissed Starmer Bekele and Bailey just Phillips and Angela Raine old say they're contenders but the am Guardian front page says that their long daily gets clear run as candid as the Labor left they explained that's because the shadow each occasion secretary and Geraint has cleared the way for her friend a man of the flatmate actually Rebecca long Bailey to run as the left wing successes Jeremy Corbyn The paper says that our Geraint has built up a public profile was regarded as a strong contender However in a move one colleague described the system she is now expected to run for deputy leaders meeting the path along Bailey elsewhere Magnus Carlsen the World Chess Champion is on the front page of The Times and on page 3 as well because he is now at the very top of the fantasy football league the Premier League fantasy football league it's not really surprising when you look at what the how the times looks back on what he's done since his childhood in Norway he he submitted extraordinary mental skills from the age of 2 he could solve a 50. Piece jigsaw puzzle by 5 he could recall areas population numbers flags and capitals of all the countries in the world he began playing chess then at 5 it should come as no surprise at the time that he should turn his extraordinary analytical mind to his other passion Premier League football fancies what was a tiny very big in Norway in particular in 2078 players from there were in the top 50 fantasy players in the world could you do this a day. It's 10 past 6 the London Fire Brigade is one of 3 services found to require improvement in the latest report from the fire service watchdog Tom Simons our home affairs correspondent is on the line what do they say about London Tom Well they say that it needs improvement that it's slow to learn doesn't properly train its far fighters and is not particularly well run now this is one of 15 reports on fire services today but the real relevance is that this is the sort of thing that the Granville tower inquiry was saying when it produced its report the gravel terror inquiry was looking at the events on the night of the fire the gravel tower far in 2017 but this report is looking at the Forest Service as it is 2 years old and it is finding there is still in its own words a long way to go which is what is so striking off the deaths of so many people and all the criticism does does it say why that is the case. Well there are a number of concerns but the particular one mentioned in the report is the training of incident commanders now again that is highly relevant to what happened on the night of the gravel tower fire what they're saying is that when they inspected the brigade earlier this year they found that brigade commanders were not getting ongoing training so they might be trained when they go into the job but it wasn't carrying on as they continued in the job and crucially that the training wasn't pass fail so if a commander didn't do pretty well of course they could still go back out and be commanding incidents for real and again that's the sort of thing that was being talked about in the gravel to our inquiry the inquiry for example said that there there will be a concern among some people whether the quote training was adequate and whether the London Fire Brigade is capable of learning from its mistakes and this report makes that conclusion that there are still concerns about whether the Left be can learn from its mistakes hasn't had any theory to say about this it has it's pretty it's responded saying that there is a new London far commissioner this report today's report led directly to the resignation of Danny cotton the commander who is in charge the commissioner who is in charge of the brigade when the fire happens and the line of fire brigade now says that training is a priority they've introduced new courses additional exercises annual assessment and refresher training for the kinds of members of staff that this report is concerned about Thompson's Thank you it's 30 minutes past 6 Boeing is suspending production of the airliner which has been grounded following 2 crashes I've been told to be based on North America Correspondent Well ever since the 737 Max was grounded back in March Boeing has been looking after the problem believed to be a problem with the automated control system essentially doing a software fix and they'd been hoping to get the aircraft back in the sky by the end of this year and I would say clearly not going to have. Because the u.s. Federal Aviation Administration says at that time federal is now just too tight for it to certify the plane safe for commercial use in fact there is no timetable for when that will happen so with some $400.00 of these aircraft built and in storage Boeing says it's going to stop making them and simply focus on distributing those completed aircraft to their customers what kind of concerns have there been about these aircraft. Well the concern of course followed 2 fatal accidents that's why it was grounded the 1st accident fatal accident in Indonesia a 2nd in Ethiopia and that's why it was grounded very quickly by aviation authorities around the world and it has posed a major major problem for Boeing It was a hugely fast selling aircraft very successful for the company up until that point but since then it is cost Boeing a tremendous amount of money about 6000000000 pounds and $9000000000.00 And clearly there's no end in sight to this certainly on Monday it's stocks took quite a significant hit because a the anticipation of this announcement no sign of an end to it so likely to lose more money for the company and what kind of impact is this likely to have on the American stock market indeed the American economy. Quite a significant impact because of course Boeing is a huge force in the American economy and the direct effect of this is going to be largely on those smaller companies suppliers to Boeing the smaller companies supplying parts for this particular aircraft those orders of course will be put on hold and and being smaller companies they might not be as well able as a huge company like Boeing to simply go on standby for a few months so that there will be a knock on effect in the economy and of course looming at some point in the future when the aviation authorities around the world finally give the go ahead for this plane to fly again the next challenge of course of Boeing will be a one of persuading the public after all the bad publicity persuading the public that it is Saif Peter Bay's Many thanks more on Boeing in a moment with Don He's here with the business news at 60 minutes past 6 have been looking particularly at the lessons from a high profile company collapses recently yes there is a plan afoot to copy what happened in America way back in 2002 after a string of corporate scandals like Enron remember them and World Com George w. Bush brought in the Sarbanes Oxley Act which means that the top management of a company have to personally testify that the accounts are true a British version of their could be proposed in general well would it work also this one we're going to have another quick chat about that Boeing decision to suspend production of the 737 Max and how much would you pay for a pair of Freddie Mercury's trousers We'll find out about that in a minute but 1st the business of orders Michelle Hinchcliffe is a partner and u.k. Chair of water k p m g one of the big 4 can see firms Michel this idea for a u.k. Submarines actually this let's go back a bit how did we get where we are now there's been a number of reviews into order to the end the question of order to the 1st one was by Sejong Kingman and they've got small arms going on at the moment that's right so the 1st one by so junking been looked at the role. The regulator and the next review is by Sedona Bryden which is due to release in the week of the beginning of January 13th of January and that's very much looking at the product and I think every What an order should be when looking at the. Year the scope of the audit is it useful should it be changed should it be broadened so an audit very much at the moment focuses on the financial statements. Which is quite backward looking and the question is should it be more should be focused more on the front end of what we call the front end of financial statement because of just this basic mismatch isn't there the public understand order to counts to be a fair or accurate black and white account of what's going on in the company but the truth is that the modern old it is not really like that is it absolutely the there are many quite complex judgments made in order and at the moment an audit report is fairly black and white and that's one of the reasons we introduced what we call graduated findings which is to give the investors some more information better information around those judgments which have been made this is what about this idea for making the company's management personally responsible making them sign on the dotted line to say these are fair and accurate accounts what was the experience in the States after Sarbanes Oxley was introduced Well I think in India one the cell phones Oxley was fairly painful for people to implement it required a lot of work but a number of years later I think most people would believe that the that the controls around financial reporting as a result of some Botox and it's worth remembering also having reported on at the time that corporate America hated the idea they did not want it absolutely and as I said you one was painful but now it's been implemented and on an ongoing basis I believe there are a benefits and we certainly see that those controls a stronger as a result of Sarbanes Oxley if it would work over here I believe there is absolute value in a British version of sux. I don't think it should be an exact replica of what's in the u.s. Because we have very different frameworks in place the u.s. Is quite rules based the u.k. Is very much principles based so I think we need to modify to see what works best in the u.k. Environment and certainly concentrate minds in the boardroom wouldn't wouldn't if you thought Gosh if these accounts are like it I'm going to be sued now absolutely and I think the positive thing from Certainly conversations that we as a firm of had with or that committee chairs is there is a lot of support for a u.k. Version of socks to reflect on the work of your own firm and and the other big 4 accountants we wouldn't be in this position if you guys had done your job properly . Well I think that's a it's quite complex when you look at I'm sure as she referring to company failures and accounts restatement of accounts but there were a number of participants in the preparation of those accounts management directors standard says his regulators auditor's And I think we all have a role to play there and as a result of the failures we've all got learnings to take away and improve on what about the break up which is the other thing that's happening the better the background the idea that the big 4 accountants might be broken up so they're advisory workers separate from the audit work. They don't like that I dated a caveat she does not like that idea Well we've certainly been looking at operational separation as opposed to legal entity else and separation because we feel there really are benefits of a multi-disciplinary 3rd and we believe we can achieve the separation that's needed through operational rates thank you very much Michel Hinchcliffe from k p m g James Bevan the chief investment officer at c c l a Investment Management is my markets just want to change before we talk about Boeing the 4100 had a remarkable day if they have to in a quarter percent pretty strong day in any decade really to 7519 points why is this little talk about international investors so you had turned their back on the u.k. Coming back into the market to me this is really much more part of a global picture of celebration that Mr Trump appears to have settled his act money with China on trade but also the Federal Reserve has been providing enormous amounts of cash and that's been keeping markets going so not Mr Johnson but Mr Trump I think Mr Trump Mr Powell who is of course in charge of the u.s. 5 reserve he is probably going to get the gold star for the current running let's talk about the big American company Boeing we heard a report there earlier about the suspension of production of the Boeing 737 Max just some numbers are not in the States if Boeing does stop it has stopped production simply will do in January it will knock one 3rd of one percentage point off American g.d.p. Next year just shows how big this company's Yes it's the u.s. Is long. Just industrial company it had sales in 2018 of just over $100000000000.00 So it is huge and lots of companies here in the u.k. May get senior g.k. And you contribute to the aircraft who presume you will feel some of the aftermath of that in this particular aircraft has something like 40000 complainants sourced from 600 companies so the ripple is going to be enormous just closer to home Sports Direct fashion retailer it shares were up a 3rd yesterday on the back a bit of a trading statement. Mean interim figures they were half figures one 3rd to $470.00 . 1 why. Prior to the release the figures there was widespread expectation that Mr Ashley's empire could not possibly buck the trend of pain in the High Street that has been so widely felt and reported and actually the numbers that came to the table were much better than expected debt was lower returns on Captain Cloyd were beginning to improve there was talk about green shoots of recovery it has reason this is a great sigh of relief and I have to tell you I find it really difficult to get my head round exactly what the numbers are because the year on year comparisons are really difficult for companies make quite so many acquisitions so time will tell thank you very much James Bevan from c.c.l. a Investment management now when you've all been waiting for the price of Freddie Mercury Strauss's not just any old trousers or the ones he wore on his final tour as a frontman of Queen and 986 we'll find out how much they fit later today when bottoms holds its entertainment memorabilia auction John Bradley is a managing director of bombs and Knightsbridge with the auction will take place John thanks for coming in the reserve price on those transfers of Freddie Mercury 815220000 pounds why that number in particular how do you value things like this what would be in the memorabilia market for over 30 years and it's all comparable with you know similar things sold in the past so we've sold quite a lot of Freddie Mercury's question in the past and is this better or worse than some We've sold before so almost inexplicably that Barry Manilow red leather jacket which he also wore on to has a reserve of just 2 to 3000 pounds I'm sure the must have in a time in the late seventy's really eighty's when many low outsold Mercury sure you know in fashions change you know the latest thing is punk memorabilia you know there's a resurgent heavy metal so you've got to keep your finger on the pulse and fashions change and prices go up and they go down but I suppose this is a point it's almost impossible to predict what you know with a metal they will outperform their career or the other way around that is yes it's you know it's not an exact science so you know we just can't keep your finger on the pulse would be bidding bidding into who would take part in this auction. Truly international I mean it's a lot of American interest Continental quite a few Russian as well but Russian was Chinese by the 2 Yeah they're coming in slowly but they're not strong at the moment but we're getting initial inquirers e.u. Make that point about a resurgence in interest in punk rock Simpson you have lots of memorabilia from the Sex Pistols in this particular auction but also from Oasis and going back to that. Metal mc Kriegsmarine wonder which one would be a bit a collector's item. Whose whose today what it did just entirely depends upon your taste as to how you'll bid Yeah I these are big people I mean I was a teenager in the sixty's so my passion is for the Beatles and Rolling Stones and they're very strong and obviously Hendrix as well it's one thing you also have all from the film memorabilia in this in this auction including what looks to me an absolute steal a handwritten letter from Charlie Chaplin reserve anywhere 2000 pounds on that it seems it has Chapman coming on well here laser every no strap and I mean it's you know manuscript material is not so popular as some questions or guitars and things like that but the you know the world record price of a piece of film memorabilia is over $3000000.00 pounds that was the robot from. The m.g.m. Robbie the Robot. That was sold a couple years ago to 3000000 pounds it's very it's also what attracts big prices Richard Burton is jacket from where it was this which a lot of people will be watching this Christmas I suspect is on for almost exactly the same price about $5000.00 pounds as one of a number of prop hold waltz acceptance that is into Harry Potter so just shows you if you have Harry Potter outsells Richard Burton at the moment yeah I mean Harry Potter is huge and will be growing do you know what you expect this auction to rise to raise in total because you have a lot of different lots on display today probably between 25300000 pounds Arsal range but you just don't know Di we don't and that's exactly ocean air and you get up there on the rostrum and you know. So you could say prices could get very high What about provenance because I know in the catalog there is always a section around where this particular item came from. Very careful about you know making sure that this wasn't taken from a film set you know when it shouldn't have been that kind of thing I mean problem also is paramount importance because obviously if you buy something spend a huge amount of money you want to be sure that actually did belong to Richard Burton So we do a lot of research into finding out that the story that comes with the costume whatever happens to be is absolutely right a lot of stuff does seem to come from people who are working on films it's good we have to make sure that they got a legitimate a very good one thank you regular with action today John Bradley from problems in Knightsbridge tough choice what would you give for the Manilow jacket with a mixer transistor mentally. Wearing neither of those you love bondage with the sporty but yes I will start with these have an overnight wait for it as women in the 1st of their 3 t 20 cricket internationals against Pakistan after making 1544 in their 20 overs ng and dismiss their opponents 125 when their 4 by 29 runs live now to our cricket reporter Henry Moran in Kuala Lumpur and right. Well this game was very much the 1st step on England's path towards the t 20 World Cup in Australia in February it's one month that a new coach Lisa Carney will expect England to challenge for the vote Pakistan their opponents here in Malaysia no means by no means among the world's elite they did offer England a real contest in this game that 154 for 4 for a number about in part by Amy Jones's 53 look to be a match winning title in Pakistan last early wickets but they really fought back and put pressure on England's bowlers for a while threatening to cause an upset in the end it wasn't to be and Pakistan fell about 29 run short but this wasn't a walk over and given the limited time and the matches left before that t 20 torment having a challenging series like this is not a bad thing everything here will be speed ahead of the night the captain in an hour from now being as men meanwhile play the 1st match of their winter tour of South Africa today they'll get underway at 8 o'clock on time against a Cricket South Africa Invitational team the match played over 2 days in but only James Anderson plays recovering from injury there's the prospect this morning of the Italian Carlo Ancelotti returning in the next few days to English football specifically at Everton to take over from the interim manager there Duncan Ferguson until he won the Champions League 3 times twice with Milan and once for the Real Madrid and he also won the domestic trouble double with Chelsea in 2010 he was sacked last week by Napoli but our chief sportswriter filmic melty believes there's every chance of him moving into the manager's office at Goodison he's always been I think people are suggesting keen to come back he was linked with Arsenal of course whether he was the right profile of what Arsenal wanted was never quite convincing enough so it's Everton that seemed to be at the front of the queue now and said they think it's a no hoping to try an intense fight all now and try and get some sort of deal done which they would certainly feel they could parade as a really big one mob statement mentioned there by Phil of Arsenal who appear to be closing in on matches the City assistant coach Mick teta has believed that he will not stand in his way should he wish to take the job but the issue of compensation remains a possibility with the likely demand for a 7 figure Meanwhile Crystal Palace to one all with Brighton that sell has part last night move up to 19 the Premier League Brighton 30.

Merry Christmas Joey. B.b.c. Radio 4. The time now is half past 6 You're listening to today on b.b.c. Radio 4 with Michelle Hussain and Martha Carney and here is a summary of the news from Neil sleet the government is due out a new close to the brink said Bill to make it illegal for parliament to extend the process of leaving the European Union beyond the end of 2020 Downing Street said that by giving the Conservatives a big majority in parliament voters had shown they wanted to get breaks it delivered e.u. Negotiators have warned that a comprehensive trade deal can't be agreed that quickly Labor's said it would revive the possibility of the u.k. Leaving the e.u. Without a deal. The shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry warned privately and in September that Labor's chances of winning the election would be hampered by remaining neutral on Bracks it speaking in a b.b.c. Documentary which we broadcast tonight she questioned whether her party could avoid taking a position. A review of the decline in the number of rape prosecutions and convictions across England and Wales says the criminal justice system is so under resourced it's close to breaking point out of a record $58000.00 allegations of rape in the year to March fewer than 2000 led to successful prosecutions the Crown Prosecution Service inspectorate found that police were taking longer to gather evidence and that fewer cases were being referred to the c.p.s. For a decision on whether to bring charges inspectors have criticised the London Fire Brigade saying it's not particularly well run and that commanders have not had proper training and Majesties Inspectorate of Fire and Rescue Services said the brigade had been slow to implement the changes needed after the ground fell tower blaze the new commissioner says he's committed to making the necessary improvements the aircraft manufacturer Boeing is suspending production of 737 Max Jets next month the planes have been grounded since March of this year following 2 fatal crashes Boeing had been hoping to get the aircraft back in operation by the end of this year but u.s. Regulators say it won't be certified safe to fly in time. Psychologists working with refugees and migrants on the Greek island of Lesbos have told the b.b.c. They're seeking is seeing an increasing number of children self harming and attempting suicide the un refugee agency says more than 3005 p. $500.00 people have arrived at the Morea camp on Lesbos so far this month the time is 27 minutes to 7 after a year when there were nearly $60000.00 rape allegations in England and Wales Why were there just 2000 successful prosecutions that is the question at the heart of a report released today Danny sure our home affairs correspondent is on the line this is the inspector's report Danny what conclusion do they come to well this is one strand of a government review into this and this looked really at the role of the Crown Prosecution Service and what it essentially says is that this gap between the number of allegations record number of allegations and these falling number of prosecutions and convictions is not really the fault of the Crown Prosecution Service because what the report says is that most of the decisions the vast majority of the decisions that the c.p.s. Makes about whether a suspect should be prosecuted or not for rape are correct they looked at $250.00 cases and found that only 5 was the decision wholly unreasonable and where mistakes were made they tend to go in both directions are the charge or release and the conclusion really that the report comes to is that this gap is due to issues further up the system if you like probably at the door of the police because the criminal justice system is under resourced so that it is close to breaking point and Kevin McGinty the chief inspector who led the review said the number of rape allegations last in the investigative process is damning but why would there be a big gap between allegations and convictions in these offenses than in other types of offenses well in a sense that is something. The inspectorate didn't really look at it looked at the c.p.s. His role and so far that there has to be a review of the police investigation part of it what it did find was that fewer cases were being referred to the c.p.s. For decision and that where cases were referred to the c.p.s. The c.p.s. Was sending more cases back to the police to conduct further inquiries and gather more evidence and sometimes that evidence gathering process wasn't conducted in a timely way so there were more delays and it's possible that some victims are pulling out of the process because of the delays and certainly that some of the cases are more complex because there's more digital evidence together and that increases delays as well but the reasons why all these cases being lost in the investigative process is not something that the c.p.s. Inspector looked at in its report Danny thank you it's 25 to 7 Boris Johnson is planning to make it illegal for the government to extend the brakes a transition period beyond the end of next year the plan is for the Katie leave the e.u. By the end of January we don't abate their rules while a new trade agreement is negotiated Let's talk to Norman Smith our system to political editor and what lies behind this move do you think Norman Well in part is designed to underscore what was in the manifesto when the commitment not to extend beyond December or next year was already in the manifesto but it's now sort of underscored in great big red declines because when the bill is brought back on Friday we're told the clause which would allow for a further 2 year extension will be removed and in its place will be a clause which in effect says Come what may know it's no box by the end of next year we are out whether we've got a trade deal or not and those around Mr Johnson say it's about trust frankly seeking to reassure voters that they will meet their. Plage to leave by December next year but it's also clearly about cranking up the pressure on the e.u. To agree a new trade deal in that time table given we know there have been voices like Michel Barnier saying that they think that sort of timetable is just unrealistic so it is designed to heap pressure on the e.u. But it does massively massively raise the stakes because of agreement is not reached in that time table then we will be leaving on World Trade Organization terms in other words it puts the prospect of no deal very firmly back on the table Meanwhile over on the Labor side and lots of positioning ahead of their leadership contest we seem to have a cast of many now limbering up to possibly stand as leader of a later speculation centers on whether a rain a could actually duck out of the race for the top job and instead go for the deputy job paving the way I suppose for the clear candidate of the left to be Rebecca long Bailey and she already of course has won the endorsement of a number of senior figures such as John McDonald but it is still extraordinarily early days in the contest which kind of underlines just the sort of degree of confusion I think in Labor ranks in trying to come to terms with the nature of their defeat with some as we know blaming it on Jeremy Corbyn other blaming it on breaks at some blaming it on the hard left manifesto Some blame it on the media some blaming it on a London centric party and you really sense the party really is at sixes and sevens and trying to reach some sort of consensus about what went wrong and what do we know about the timetable for us and when Jimmy called will be stepping down well Jeremy Corbyn we know it will go before the end of March so the any See we understand will meet on January the 7th to agree the final timetable there has been some pressure for Mr Corbyn to go before then in the belief the. That if he remains as leader joining that period he will inhibit a genuine debate and discussion about what has happened to the body just by being there and the party is not going to have a genuine reflection I generally don't think there is going to be or there is the appetite to force an interim leader for those 3 months it's not clear to me who that would be because they don't have a deputy now because Tom Monson obviously stood down and John said he has no appetite to be interim leader Norman Many thanks it's 22 minutes to 7 a power station just outside Sydney could be threatened by spreading bushfires just as Australia braces for a heat wave that will make it all the more difficult to tackle the crisis Phil Mercer is our correspondent in Sydney give us the latest 1st fill on the fires in the vicinity of the city well the Mount Piper power station generates about 10 percent of the electricity here in New South Wales this is Australia's most populous states and this out of control mega fire burning to the northwest of Sydney has come dangerously close to this Power Station Fire crews have managed to stop the ignition of stockpiles of coal a coal mine nearby also came under what's known here as a sustained ember attack these are embers from the main fire that have blown on the wind in New South Wales there are 110 fires burning 59 of those are uncontained and also on the other side of the continent in Western Australia there are dozens of bushfires there too so adding to the bushfire risk is that much of mainland Australia sometime this week later this week will be subject to very very very severe heat wave conditions and what does that mean in terms of the impact on people's lives. We have to remember that if you think of natural hazards in Australia floods storms and bushfires and heat waves heat waves are the most deadly natural hazards in the country they kill more people than all of those other natural hazards put together and in parts of southern Australia there is a full cause that temperatures could reach 50 degrees Celsius in South Australia for example they are 4 costing back to back days of 49 and 50 degrees Celsius for Wednesday and Thursday on the earth or it is in South Australia have issued something called a code red for vulnerable people to try to stay out of the heat as best they can but of course scaping the heat isn't necessarily easy so the oath or it is a trying to warn people to do all of they all they can to stay out of these roasting conditions but of course it makes the spread of the of the fossil all the more possible. It does if you think about the that horrible conspiracy of conditions that makes bushfires so serious and needs to be dry underfoot we've got a very serious drought here in eastern Australia and needs to be hot so we're expecting conditions here in Sydney to reach about $44.00 degrees Celsius and it also needs to be windy so all of those things we do expect at some point towards the end of the week here in eastern Australia and elsewhere in New South Wales the military is being deployed ahead of those worsening bushfire conditions as done to so many bushfires rage so does the political debate about what to do with the worsening bushfire condition there are a group of former senior emergency officials accusing the Australian government of ignoring the impact of climate change on the fire crisis the debate rages as to many of the fires still mess in Sydney thank you it's 80 minutes to 7 and time for a look at the papers and news websites and the government's decision to make it unlawful to extend the brakes a transition period beyond the end of next year is the main story for many of them the Telegraph says Boris Johnson argues that unless the e.u. Is working to a hard deadline it will inevitably try to keep Britain tied to its current trading arrangements for as long as possible. Excuse me for the times the move dispels speculation with his 80 strong majority Mr Johnson would tack to a softer Bragg's it and extend the transition period because he wouldn't be so beholden to us skeptic Tory M.P.'s But the independent website says it will force businesses to consider once more whether they should make expensive contingency plans for a possible no deal on New Year's Day 2021 having already wasted money on a boat of preparations for departure twice this year the Guardian focuses on the Labor leadership campaign saying the shadow education secretary Angela Raina has cleared the way for her friend Rebecca long baby to run as the left wing successor to Jeremy Coleman to. Harding instead focus on becoming Deputy Leader The Times reports that the 2 have shared a flat in London since becoming M.P.'s and 2015 and their friendship is thought to be behind their reluctance to compete for the same position for its main story the Mail reports that the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has said it's wrong to expect the royals to behave like super human saints The paper says that Mr Welby spoke out after the Prince Andrew scandal and appeared to defend him by insisting that everyone is human the Duke of York has categorically denied claims by an American woman in Virginia Jeffrey that she was forced to have sex with him on 3 occasions the protests in India about a new citizenship law that gives false track citizenship to people from neighboring countries except Muslims are widely covered the Guardian thinks the landslide reelection of the prime minister Narendra Modi has provided the green light to push through what it calls the most wanted items in the Hindu nationalist wish list the Financial Times says critics see the law as breaking with Mahatma Gandhi's vision of India's being home for people of all faiths and signaling to India's Muslims that they don't fully belong Finally there are warnings that motorists getting away for Christmas faced a frantic Friday with record numbers expected to take to the roads according to The Telegraph chaos on the railways caused by the new into timetable engineering works and strikes mean that more people be forced onto the roads and cars will be bumper to bumper the time says The r a c is expecting pre-Christian is panic and drivers have been told to expect delays of up to an hour and a half it's a quarter to 7 it's just over a month since Brazil's former President Lula da Silva was released from prison pending appeal in connection to his 12 year sentence for corruption until that process is completed he's free to talk and he has certainly been doing that all South America correspondent Katie Watson reports from Sao Paolo. Was in downtown Sao Paolo last week hundreds of law students at Brazil's biggest university waited patiently for the guest of honor to appear. As a lunatic his seat in the room erupted he still evokes strong emotions. I really want to defeat fascism in this country. I want you all to have the same desire if there's one thing I want to do is to fight for the truth and fight hard for a government that lie so blatantly through fake news who salutes the u.s. Government someone who tries to destroy everything that was good that thinks poor people have no value that the community has to die how can you live in a country like that. Was that. Was. Left and Right this country is deeply divided as released from prison means his voice is now louder that of course pleases his supporters but has spurred his critics onto the protesters calling for the Supreme Court to reverse the decision for him and many other prisoners who are now eligible for release pending appeal and an aide to the elevator is a spokesperson for the vampire who are one of the social movements most critical of the former president you can imagine that I prefer my c.c. As I think he's definitely more free to speak but I'm not sure if that means he is more important he would have more influence if millions of people took to the streets or they'd welcome him out of prison people are fighting much more against corruption know what they use than for politicians. You know what we are and he has been hit and the influence of the left has taken a battering here in Brazil which is why both Now one elected on an anti lunatic it just over a year ago Specter is a professor of August foundation in Sao Paolo Yes of course Lula's message is incredibly popular still because it's a message of social equality in a country that is marked by vast amounts of inequality. But at the same time. The reason a problem in the way the party communicate to many people and many moderates the party remains to tell her just from popular sentiment and will remain detached until they actually come up with an argument as to why the b. Ball should trust the left now so could we see a return of Lula and more of his political influence in the run up to the next elections what we have seen is not that comes out of prison ready to engage a wide majority of Brazilians what we see talking to his base and this is understandable because the country's polarized polarized systems as we've seen around the world leaders hesitate to talk to majorities leaders to talk to their base is that of course leaves the center ground hollowed and that as we know is a problem for democracy. Thank. You . Lou supporters a Glad to have him back on the speaker's circuit offering up a very different political narrative to that of Jibril scenario but it's a narrative that people have heard before and many no longer want to listen to. You. It's 11 minutes to 7 and. Of the day has been set by Carl Hill's a year 9 student at little Ilford school it was the winning puzzle of Bobby Siegel's competition them so here goes at Littleford school is a 40 percent Christmas sales the school uniforms Farakka pays 50 pounds in total for 3 school jumpers and receives 10 pounds 14 change if Arab or one school jumper at the original previous comment price how much would it cost. Now a b.b.c. Investigation has revealed that thousands of students across the u.k. Are a strange to from their families which means no financial support and possibly nowhere to go in the holidays Alice Porter is a reporter on the Victoria Dobbs Show program who worked on these figures how do you stop wish the madness. There good morning guest These figures come from the Freedom of Information request that I put in to the Student Loans Company and the student awards agency for Scotland they provide the loans and grants for students for their living costs and I asked the number of students who'd proven that they were strange from their parents and therefore entitled to the maximum amount of funding available and this issue of proof for many of the students can be quite difficult they have to show evidence they've not had contact with their parents for about a year they've got to have statements from upstanding members of the community have to write on their behalf and prove their strange meant and many find this process quite difficult many don't fit this criteria of about a year and of course during that time if you don't have relationships your parents you've got no home to go to and no financial support so many fall in this very very difficult but if you can prove it then you can get extra financial support it's not there's a extra financial support but it's the maximum financial support that is available I normally do or the amount of money that you are entitled to is based on a printed income but obviously if you don't feel it in contact your parents for then how can they assess that So this is being setup to help prove people who have an independent status Alice thank you very much listening to that here in the studio is Blair Anderson who was studying law at Glasgow University but dropped out of his degree earlier this year you have subsequently gone back to university to get to in a moment but what were the circumstances under which you became extra estranged from your family moment show so. The cover long story short I'm gay and I came at the age of 14 and I grew up in a where you can only call homophobic so when I came out it wasn't an option to be 0 which meant that for the 4 or 5 years between then and then moving to university I was in the very difficult position well I had given to my family but I wasn't allowed to tell anyone else I wasn't allowed to tell anyone about the mental health issues I was going through and it was a Phillip difficult time but when I got to university I always saw university as my way out of that situation and when I got to university I was in a position to cut off ties because I had. Funding and I wasn't dependent on them for you know house and food and all the rest of it you know but what was your experience of the system only as point about having to prove that you were strange from your parents so the system as it stood does not work that was why I had to drop out so for the 3 years I was in university before dropping out I was getting my shouldn't funding based on the income of my parents despite the fact that they weren't supporting me financially because there was no way or the only not question form to say I am strange you would phone up call center and they would say them 12 months yes because that's sort of the nature of. So of toxic family relationships so even if you have an argument on the phone they would hear that and think what he is in contact with his friends he's not a strange yet the definition was Hellman and break down for 12 months which is as unfeasible and it's not Western It looks like for anyone so what then happened so after dropping. And I was very very lucky to meet someone at the university who knew someone called Dan Keenan he works in the university's waving desperation team he has changed my life there's no other way but and so after talking to him he said are you. I know that you're a whole category of person a stranger and no I've never heard of I thought I was just in a funny personal situation and they said yes so because you're a stranger entitled to all of this extra funding which I had no idea about but there was no way to prove it but we've said and thanks to Dan who knew someone with an sas the world's agents if there was a form of just one bad people and then all of a sudden I was getting 3 grand extra you know which meant I could come back to you know what's the right and that is why you are in rolled back on your on your law degree I would not be able to graduate of our Blair Anderson thank you very much for there's going to be much more about this story on the Victoria your program which is a 10 am on b.b.c. 2 Thank you it's 7 minutes to 7 a waterfall kid and a miracle berry are among the 100 new species discovered this year by the Royal Botanic Garden secure in London Dr Martin cheek is abortionists there and seen senior scientists within the queue science identification and naming Department he's here in the studio Good morning good morning off and let's go through some of the top 10 because there are some amazing plants that you found there and it's not just scientists who found them because there were snowdrops found by somebody on holiday yes this was a Turkish pediatrician who while on holiday one weekend. Spotted an unusual Snowdrop took photos of it put up on Facebook and. A Ukrainian. Snowdrop fanatic going through Facebook found pictures of this realize they were something extremely unusual and then contacted her went out. With her to find these plants collect samples and then brought this to the attention of one of my colleagues Evan Davis who you know drop specialists you're going to be bombarded with holiday pictures now but tell us about your own discovery the so-called waterfall orchid this is a plant that I. I did last year in Guinea a country in West Africa where there's a whole family of plants that just grow in waterfalls they need pure water every rock to grow on. Many of them are highly localized So having found out about this waterfall and being in Guinea is part of our topical important plant areas program . Sought out to to get there and find out what species of this family were there and in the course of that I found this plant which is only known from this waterfall and the trouble it faces is that there's a hydroelectric dam. Planned for this site and if that goes ahead if no measures is taken the risk that this species will become extinct and that is a problem with many of the new species the eve discovered that they are at risk of extinction but many of them have really interesting medicinal properties such Some of them to most plant species on the planet have not been even looked at for their potential applications for man kind medicinal or or otherwise but there's a fungus that you found which could be useful for arthritis that's right turn more than that apparently it's got I'm not a mycologist I'm a I'm a plant taxonomist. And centered in Africa but this fungus from China which uniquely grows on one species of bamboo in southwest China in you know on the the fruit bodies. Have compounds of a class called hyper Kremlin's which have very high biological activity including those you've mentioned but also has a bar ticks. And for treating other with met many other medical applications there's a lot lot of excitement in this class of compounds that are produced by this fungus that fears too because of extinction. Risks of climate change of biodiversity apparently Yes I don't have a crystal particular one Dr Martin cheek thank you very much indeed for talking to us 3 minutes to 7 Christmas getaway this week for some more of the weather have in store for us Helen Willetts. Thank you very much for the wet and windy weather's coming back in Unfortunately as we head towards the end of this working week could actually today it's quite quiet out there for many parts not all let's start with the exception southeast England eastern England in Lincolnshire waking up to another really pretty wet morning cloudy outbreaks of rain will continue on and off throughout the rest of the days of big gray and murky spray and standing water on the right it is relatively mild there however elsewhere across England Wales too it's cold this morning with some frost and some fairly thick folk to watch for the Vale of York northwestern parts the mid and set some of the major motorway networks works in to the east of Wales as well and it's freezing folks the temperatures may struggle to get much above freezing for much of the day but elsewhere to be dry air with some sunshine and temperatures again not that much higher than 5 or 6 degrees Celsius but I think with that sunshine to feel pleasant enough in the light winds Northern Ireland similar along with Scotland with this cold start this morning some frost around some ice and snow across parts of Scotland some fault for Scott down Northern Ireland but again once he clears away which might struggle it should be a dry a day than yesterday with more sunshine not warmer they are $4.00 to $6.00 degrees Celsius but at least the showers become confined to coastal and northern areas. Thank you very much indeed now let's look ahead to later this morning on Radio 4. Tim Haywood has a question if we would stall count it will make you go a little fixing Sure us how the craft movement is challenging capitalism and struggling with the idea of consumerism can't quite get my head around that I think the whole joy of having an object is making yourself. What would a home made world look like. On the broad very much with very less fancy building or a plane what if people stopped buying stuff and started making this morning at home lost 11 b.b.c.

Than an e-mail is Duncan a b.b.c. Dot co dot u.k. On my Tom I later get into the whole debate about spag bol just because I'm feeling a bit peckers Michaels in Kings Cross he's on the radio Good evening sir good evening how are you to know I mean good health would you like to talk about. That Cody talking about. His having 0 emission calls. And all I do recovery fole. Little joy to the cause that we pick up the bright Yes 0 emission all but real price $8.00 idea the reason nice they cannot charge a cost quick enough. To cause out let's say a 12 hour shift they can take up to $25.00 to charge Of course when you when you say the majority of calls that you pick of just so everyone listening is clear you're in the recovery business on yes yes you know the company pays me so well you have one of those trucks now I drive past at 3 in the morning with like a car on the back Yep that's me good good luck I know exactly know exactly what you're driving Michael good or right so so just explain a bit further then so I'll be concluding that the idea to expect the emergency services to have electric vehicles all vehicles on petrol and diesel is just a bit of a fantasy based very big side of the regime in the fire engine. Has got. Tricks on our calls Yeah when I carry not your basic essentials on fast like a fire extinguisher but to get a fire engine to be fully electric. The whole they would just lose half the capacity of the walls Tighe right. Because about free and because the white about change yeah yeah yeah I mean my knowledge on this is scratch reason a new rules I suspect to be better than mine do we know if there are any electric far engines about in London. As far as I. Have seen all have got a few friends off far off says yes i told me that there are trials what I call the slimline electric fire engine. By day. Trial Yes says I mean I think there's no idle was a colo that you possibly can and we had a little bit of a an exchange only because he said it's hypocritical this policy for the City of London Corporation because they're going to exclude emergency vehicles when they ban petrol and diesel cars and also what you all may do you want and I'm going to get through all no but you'll making the point that actually it is probably not remotely feasible to have electric ambulances or far engines it's a phase one because the charging time it's I and 2 because the White Yeah yeah I mean you job there Michael how often are you picking up electric cars that have broken down or run out of juice I started several quotes well I'll pick up 5 electric cars at. 5 and 7 o'clock this evening so that's one hour. She one of our That's amazing you see I find these staggering because I mean I've been in on the laws any kind of environmental activist obviously put for the opposing view but I read some odd stuff about the saw there that we should all buy Aleck trick cars and stuff like that and sometimes I think in my job for the b.b.c. I have to go to different places right so sometimes I have to get a soulful in Greater Manchester and I couldn't get to so for the Greater Manchester from from from here in London w one I and an electric car without charging it so I mean it is kind of look at in thing until the technology gets better or until there's a lot more power points why would anyone take the risk. They want to pay people to take a race because I want to help the environment but what he wants to. Talk some go have a little by when is the year I. Yeah which is the moment the style has to be you know 6 to go for you said yes the lake was I drive I love my colleagues do I But you know I yeah so weird sort of like so free is I hate yeah yeah there's certainly and you might have heard it again with with knowledge your mother in law being appalled nodule of you still listening but your calls on the generator this one you know there is there is all position to the side there and some question marks over various Barros and councils trying to make their streets saw areas less toxic in terms of air pollution where do you stand on this Michael do you think we need to do something in London to reduce the pollution. Well I decided biggest pollution pollution in London at the moment because we have to do pollution test as well as the buses Yeah yeah. Like. You probably remember when the boss he's Goldstraw I quite a bit of pollution level user drop Yeah yeah yeah I'm on my knowledge of electric buses isn't to Hawick so well whether we stand all now the moment is it feasible to have all of the red buses in London running off batteries they can they can say bets are yeah but by cost a lot of money I only went that night in about $4.00 different places around the world so when they get shipped to the u. Khai the cargo flow pregnant as she calls it is doing more damage in the days of the truck it's really interesting and just just as a side note you said it in clocked on a 7 o'clock the saving and your work so far you had to pick up 5 electric cars run out of juice What do they when you turn up to these people well what do they say to all the other kind of did they think that I could get home. Recharging points in time and I got stuck in the jam a while what's what's normally the reasoning behind having to call you out when they run out of juice.

Don't code don't you tell me email will give us a call at 807312000 will mean would you cook to impress someone Grace is annealing and is on the radio Good evening Hi I think that some of my. Fellow millennial females my all queue in response to a question or 2 female cousin of an authority that there is a societal Impala swept by men are often prayed for managing to school whereas women might be called in a negative while a 2nd on every idea that you did someone flying not too long I think that's probably what I don't see won't like the saying that we have to so capillary men who would also women that use more. Celebrate 3 where is the equivalent of an orgy for women the sex it off men is more derogatory all of them find the word that would celebrate managing to seduce of late because there's nothing wrong with what I want to celebrate and not because I think they should do what's right the ready because I want to get necessarily always on by saying I mean you know seductress. If you must but I do not know my air expertise today and anything far enough. About South about the judgement that and. I think 1st and foremost in a free so I see we really do need to have the right to left that could be a very negative consequence to all speech have the right to freedom of speech. I think that if people don't like what you're saying that they would like to ignore you but you should usually have the right to say most things. Within. And so if the bishop wants to say particular things about the government he didn't talk you can do so he didn't like the he does own the freedom of speech does he know in his capacity as the new Archbishop of York I think yes and foremost because of freedom of speech or to say anything or to suddenly Web people can say what they want to the Pope and it's not just freedom of speech is it because if you all the Archbishop of York all currently the Bishop a challenge for one could make the argument that you are somehow representing the Church of England when you make those comments whole criticism so it's not just about freedom of speech is about a voice of an organization is not well yeah if you have that position you know that I would very much hope that you are someone who genuinely loves called the best soul wants to try to it had said Jesus teachings and the Bible and Jesus Himself it's not just Jesus and others throughout the Bible including the Old Testament it's made very clear that God really hates injustice especially against Paul and the Bible says over and over again the court wants a people to help the poor to think about orphans and widows one particular well known is Micah 68 says that the Lord has told you what is good and what the Lord requires of you is to act justly to love musée and to walk company with God and then and pulled it says amongst many other things speak up for those who can all speak for themselves for the rights of those who destitute speak and Judge fatty defend the rights of the poor native So the Church of England should indeed have representatives who are all talking about political issues but is it right for the Church of England to get involved in politics but how do you find right and wrong at all secular society that I think is a job would you say it's the same rights of any other religion to get involved in politics. Well I would just go just to that religion have teachings. About politics and justice but if I say that you would hope that the religious leaders know that it's a good if I switch to the stand up for the rights of people but then when Church of England sorry to interrupt I'm just off to seriously digesting what you said before I asked you the question that you just started on for his my fault for interrupting forgive me but but then the Church of England cc's to just be about religion the moment it starts criticizing politicians then surely they become politicians themselves in opposition itself because they don't have any actual power they do then today they've got bishops in the House of Lords for example. But I don't know directly how much influence they get stabbed by the I think the Ultimately they probably have more on the stabbing old societal trends I see. Now I'm lonely by those 26 bishops in the House of Lords apparently Yeah that's because the Bible tells us to get Against be concerned about those in need I would hope that the House of Lords have good intentions. Whether or not it's right for them to be that was how to know the choice is a complex question I don't have enough but the stick to judgement on that I don't think that you can be a Christian and not chat about the poor and about justice but if the Bible makes it really that what God really really cares about other than just people following him around that most important thing about the next most important they need Jesus tells us to love one another yeah but it isn't a danger his just want to get back on track to the it's perfectly acceptable for the Church of England to hold politicians to account if you think that these Ryan crop on a welcome your own throne this everything that is acceptable then children the a short step away from saying it's alright for the Church of England to tell congregations across the country how to vote. Won't. They. No because I don't think. Any of you want any particular topic is the same as say you should take your party in any given pol to such a wide array of policy I mean this is an issue as the Church of England you have criticized let's say the government of the day and then there is a political policy The agrees with you all criticism of the government of the day then all I'm putting to you is your short step away from saying Well we don't love the government of the day during But we're not as political policy of him a vote for them I mean if you say it's all right for the Church of England to hold politicians to account surely you'll saying it's alright for the Church of England to get involved in any form of politics. Well I think ultimately I trust the intentions all. The spaceship more that much of the attention the course. And I think that. We've seen in the recent election the Chief Rabbi did get involved may have had some impact. And I think that. If we have people within the church she will win again speak up for justice. And also a bad thing but also many people who attend the church will follow a particular. Necessarily guide to. The rods are made up are not necessarily I'm just saying setting a short step away from from saying Well why not vote this way whether or not I would have happened as a in Saudi different conversation graces always sank a field sign that's grace in the ending of the text Syria of a like to turn regarding the food you would cook to try and suggest someone Sarah says my Italian mates used to cook amazing Spike bowl for 1st home day to be Bowl bad wine and offer a knife and fork rather than just a fork he was out doles I cook are the beef Wellington all stroganoff done properly you know that beef Wellington is quite impressive is not on this one if a man using you Brie Paul collide this Duncan.

Radio London Roy you know we're talking about pretty much we got the conversation about the Church of England and the weather and all this the Church of England's job to hold. The politicians to account and that's what the incoming Archbishop of York has said that he believes is the case we're also talking about this one street in London Beach Street on the Barbican the state and the City of London Corporation going to make it Britain's 1st 0 emissions street by banning petrol and diesel cars the chair of the Environment Committee says this is a radical action but in the needs to happen to eliminate toxic air on the streets do you support this radical move tell you one still mulling over what Michael in Kings Cross said earlier you worked in the recovery business recovering vehicles or broken down clocked on a 7 o'clock this evening he's only 5 jobs tonight of all involved 5 electric cars running out of electricity What does that say.

All that going on tonight one triple 3 is a text on the Start your message with the word London email Duncan the b.b.c. Dot co dot u.k. . On the right long as it's no abuse or you can call us 807312000 Maria's done and healing Hello. I followed the council you very well thank you would you like to talk about electric cause. In logical cause can be a concern if you will if you don't have the most horrible old Borroughs was to charge a car yet or do you have many charging points in the link do you know. We now realize that it's a challenge is that when I when I drive through the mean dog streets of central London the only ones I can I see are on the turn I think is eaten Terris there's still 3 only 2 Terry search is really really posh just thinking round here Broadcasting House whether or not you driving cars but I don't think I haven't seen any electric points around here and I think you're going to try and get people to drive electric cars as well as improving the distance that you can drive in them which is getting slightly better you need to have the charging points and loads of places don't he. If you do it. The point is you need to have also be allowed to call your into everywhere and the Boral. Can be like the sea take. One Burrill. And. Have none of it if your car drive out you take the risk all the borrows because you can't follow everywhere around. The saw like you mentioned something about poor leaves and Blair and Feyerick I need the. Electrical electrical poles Yeah every day there was a me it was a previous cold as a couple of them who talked about it but the last one said emergency vehicles. If they were to be lectured like a fire engine you'd have to take out some of the water tanks to put the size of the batteries in let me also. Let me just ask you about what's happening in. In this particular bar at the Barbican estates Beach Street and you got the City of London who want to ban petrol and diesel cars do you think that's the way forward to reduce pollution in our city the parents think in the cities very briefly Yeah if the city is ready raises very proudly yes then you need. To go post but you see why area yeah. Right now I don't know that area of the postcode can you know tell me no nor the top of my head and I don't know the Barbican postcode is. So you don't mind if you solve the only . North east Wellington and I want to find out for you because you put me on a small and I'm not gonna make a fool of myself by getting it wrong on the 2nd Vatican estate Yeah c.e.c. To the sea to so quite some East Side lie a kind of yeah yeah the so it's relevant test to where. The bar is you think and how busy it is. Yeah I don't think. Your Burrill and the. Whole many people is like that basically to work with the things on many residents or have a car in that Floral Hall many cars have these coral Khomeini in Najaf have to work in the sickly by numbers the spirits might appoint outraise No it's not just about trying to reduce pollution or any talk system but it's about how many people are actually using cars in a certain area Good call Marie a pleasure to talk to us Maria annealing on b.b.c. Radio London color messages here then we'll play that Christmas song from the jukebox policy band made up of 2 London cab drivers journalists and John Cox will do them a 2nd this is Michael in Guilford he said really a call to Sarah I believe is mistaken by stating religions times advocate killing those of other faiths all none even the god described in the christian bible was him self described as having jealous angry and aggressive sides who want to Cajuns killed innocent people. I'll take your word Michael goes on to write leaders of the Church of in the not entitled to preach within their church to the Christian followers they certainly wouldn't be entitled to preach in so-called holy buildings of other faiths in my opinion we are living in a model. In a modern world far removed from when the arrangement such as these Christian representatives were inducted into Parliament religion does not have a place in Parliament it just doesn't make any sense in my opinion on a less controversial subject you played a song by Coldplay earlier that I've heard quite a lot on b.b.c. Radio London years called Orphans maybe you can answer my query why is the song so familiar of Coldplay covered an old song or is it the whole March to an old track a Michael r. Live thing I know a little bit about music but Coldplay is not my strong point on this review and I don't know why it sounds familiar to anyone else it's got some background to the Coldplay track orphans do let me know tonight and Darren's emailed in from Ilford there's our continue to try to warm the sob you know I've got loads of calls about the Church of England and electric cars and making a street 0 emission base by having no petrol diesel vehicles vocative a few more about the meal you would cook someone to impress them or indeed seduce them. And spaghetti bolognese of course. Daryn says Yup car Rigotti is definitely the way forward had some about an hour ago and it was a thing of beauty and a joy to behold now that's off the back of the new reports text message she says I would cook it goads men fall at my feet for these th So looks like at the moment the curry go is the thing to cook someone if you want to impress them or indeed seduce them or have them for your feet in the case of an unusually park so going to broaden this out a little bit I never cooked curried go. So how did you do 80872000 is the number still told you. I got a little bit Packers right time for a festive cheer in the jukebox party bad made up of a couple of London cabbies Joe Louis and John Cox and this is good old fashioned Christmas on b.b.c. Radio. A couple of London cabbie the band name is jukebox party band made up of Joe Louis and John Cox and at Sarah festive choosing for this year good old fashioned Christmas here on b.b.c. Radio London a late night music console Galaga puts a little spring in the step just a reminder after midnight we do something called London's late night song choice let me just check something Mel did a song choice last night. No song choice last night collab wasn't here for the 1st one of the week here after midnight if you're not familiar London's late night song choice we have a couple of choose there's always a connection or player type of each then you get involved on the phone or the text or email by telling us your preference out of the 2 and the woman the most support from here is the one that I play at the end of the show just ahead of 1 o'clock in the morning I'm looking forward to tonight's a con call it tonight because there are 2 really really strong songs all about father's. The connection farther will become clear just after midnight here on b.b.c. Radio London we're back to calls in Campbell it's Tim Good evening Tim welcome I don't cannot have you well. I'll just turn up our expression of York and then nothing Archbishop of York yeah yeah yeah sorry I'm not religious and so I think it's an amazing opportunity for the Church of England Scott involved in politics and I think they should. Because like us has such a massive defeat they're not really a credible opposition and I think the government needs to have a very strong opposition to its policies and I think having one comes from basically a moral standpoint rather than purely political but the really interesting that is a really interesting comment forgive me for interrupting but when you when you say coming from a moral perspective as opposed to just a political one surely the moment an institution in the Church of England is an institution in this country starts to criticize the political policies of well not only the government of the day but indeed any other political party it stops just being moral doesn't it. Well I just think in terms of. I mean I'm I'm not sure if I might I want to kind of Chris so awesome. Too harshly I think if you could point the finger at anyone past say supposing more kind of morally bankrupt Another would be that one or possibly. Has very little regard for the less regard for things our environment the massive gap between rich and poor all of those sorts of things now I think that's exactly the kind of place . The Church of England can sail some to criticize and Orion you know convinced by Boris Johnson of the last couple of days who's made it very clear he wants to lessen that gap between rich and poor. No not really not so much don't believe a word of it. Just I think it's true it's all let me make him a main met him I may know the moment I just don't think I'd like to change spots much in a room with. Majority of a selected. Yeah but this is the argument if he doesn't deliver on any of these promises the next election these these people who are traditionally voted Labor but only in the north of England and all the exclusively but voted Conservative last week then they would they would return to the Labor Party's about the argument that if he doesn't deliver he's going to lose the next election I just I think Labor's basically out for a generation now I mean if you think back to can just remember Michael. And he seems to be like a commission dealing walking disaster at the time this is so I can another scale altogether. Because there's nobody really alive but very few people alive today that can remember Labor doing all this linking 83 was in it it was at the election where they call that the labor manifest on shore was 83 also 79 on the 2nd I'm sure it was 83 Tim where were they called the Labor Party manifesto the longest suicide note in history was only acting or Yeah exactly but I think we've had a brief managed to talk about an even longer world. I just think it will take them style law I mean if you think about labor we're just sailing sailing sailing it took the kind of no I can from one bed the kind of as a child you Blair and the rest of the space brand past say something completely different to get into power and that was the worst I have help because the conservatives were led by William Hague if you remember let's not disastrous election campaign which is based on immigration that went nowhere you know. So now I think labor kind of finished for a long long time so that's why they they that's the case I mean I'm going to challenge you on that a little bit because it's interesting what you'll saying that the need to then be if you work on the basis the labor is finished 101520 years or whatever which is what seems to be your suggesting yelled at them why did the Church of England's job to become the political opposition to the Conservative government it's not that well I think there's nothing this kind of a low or. You know written down or that I don't think it's any kind of particular convention that says I can't pay and I know the Archbishop of Canterbury is incredibly very clear about the climate crisis but I think that's something that the church can definitely tell you a lot more on you know the rise of things food banks I think the church going to be completely were missed and it's Gigi's if it doesn't take the government task on all of these things it also will have a massively positive effect I think for the church itself more bums on peace which I think is probably what they want in order to survive I just think it's a win win but not that we need to be reasonable is that fair and just to start becoming political because you will more people in church on a Sunday morning is that the way to go no I think the thing no no I think that would just be a nice positive side effect of the church. I just think you know. I mean I'm not Christian so. I'm not sure. Scare or anything but I have a hell of a lot more respect to the church because you always had a kind of wishy washy image she came out swinging a little bit maybe that's all they're supposed to have is a wishy washy image let me put something to you because I'm really enjoying this chat with you tonight and thank you for picking up the phones the same a grazer the rather lengthy old tram I'm glad you and I can do is well no I'm just wondering I'm not going to put something to you if because you talked about you know food banks you talk about climate change and saying that the church you know should should have been representatives of the Church of England to make comments about that if it's a big if but just come with me on this if you can if for example someone from the Church of England not that I have done just for the record but someone were to say you know what we're not convinced about this climate trying stuff we're not entirely sure that the sun stacks up would you still then have the belief that it's all right for the Church of England to get involved in politics. Yes definitely I think yes because. I think as an institution it needs to have a voice I mean I know that it's you know place of refuge in you know lays down the kind of scripture to the Church of England to follow it all the rest of it but I think I mean I'd find it very strange if I did that because what I think the strength to say is trying to speak out for things like equality defending the make you know I mean no one's saying sounds incredibly clear but that's where I think the strength shift and I think we need it now more than that and we need it now more than ever because people have so many more people are living in more desperate mate we're facing multiple kind of crises coming out and also we don't have an we don't have an effective opposition politically it's who I am so we meet I think adding another time mention to it would be great and. Well from slightly selfish standpoint if. It's the kind of world are elements of the story past taken. Riding roughshod and you know basically opening it up to even more market forces Samina know that the whole telling of the n.h.s. Has been surprisingly deep but I think the vicar strong moral positions things like that happening it makes it far less likely just think it I really really do hope that the church steps up to this or interesting told him thank you thank them making us time in Campbell Well on b.b.c. Radio London now if you just switch on the radio halfway through one of the things we're asking here is about the Church of England and is it the job of the Church of England to hold the politicians to account at all skin using the specific words because the man is going to become the next Archbishop of York in June 2020 was announced earlier today named Stephen cultural He's the current bishop of Chelmsford he's worn the prime minister. That is the Church of England's job to hold the politicians to account on their promises said the following The prime minister has spoken this week about being one nation I both want to support our wholeheartedly and I also want to hold the Government to account that is the job of the church and one of the questions I'm asking you tonight is this is it is it the job of the church to hold the prime minister to account to hold politicians to account and that's why Tim picks up the phone more calls up please after midnight 080-731-2000 will get you through to us couple attacks in a one triple 3 text number start your message with the word London God this story about a beach street in the Barbican a state that's going to become Britain's 1st 0 emission streets as they banned petrol and diesel cars call it in hollows says the ban polluting vehicles on 1500 yard Street is just a publicist he stunned sounds like Stephen cultural is trying to get the Church of England on the map with his comments don't think the ordinary people in the church will welcome such an argumentative comment Well that's one of the reasons why we're talking about it tonight a nickel or rather the cola Nick on the tax talking about the meal you would cook to impress also juice someone. Nick Cole says my meal to impress would be saltimbocca sowed him Buka which is very all topped with all year for Seto and fried in a masala source served his soul tape potatoes and spin each As for spag bol try rice instead of spec getit delicious Nick I'm coming over.

Well it's coming up now to 10 past 5 hours we've been reporting in the news a woman dies hard to dealing after a blaze of a block of flats in Devizes firefighters from all over will forge to free residents trapped in the building in Devizes last night b.b.c. World Charlotte truce has been following the story and is with me in the studio now trying to tell us more about what we know of what happened. Before and Rescue Service. Give me a block of flats in Waveland way in devices just after 1 o'clock this morning it's believed to have started in a communal area of the building it's a crown 35 firefighters to tackle the blaze which was put out around an hour and a half later about half past 2 in the morning and they had to pull people out the windows and the control room had to give survival guidance to those stuck inside they say at least at least knowing people have been injured as a result of the fire the youngest being just 5 years old and of course we've just been hearing the sad news that one woman in her fifty's was taken to the Great Western Hospital in Swindon in a critical condition because of smoke inhalation we've just heard that sadly she died this afternoon her family have been informed we've spoken to some of the other people that were there for you know who's cooking this so a time. And we are there smashing noise and as I'm going to go another look I'm going to see what's going on so got to the front door going to look for the people is that I can see any fan and there was smoke come black smoke coming for so as he realised it was not just someone's toast burnin So I called 911-0999 then we had to climb up our window and like shot my caps and. Yeah it was quite so. Gary Well always saw was that never was trying to get out of all of the scandal is going to spread who outside or you can see the facts and I can someone in screaming Get me out get me out. No no the sights no one through a fog games here until I ran back am running in the Me gang and where are you we need them out and in just scream and scream in stone when they turn they're trying to get our out then after that that was a license I walked away. Before. The Court. Forms out within the what was going well for upgrades for example. Stay in the room for. The little head I would stay and they were like smashing windows round the back open windows you could see it from another block but they were opening the windows trying to get everyone out what about the rest of the residents affected I mean Charlotte we've been able to find out if they're able to return to their homes well there's not a lot of word on that at the moment although a spokesperson from the housing association after has sat there on the ground offering help and support to the residents and they're going to try and make sure temporary accommodation is available for everyone that needs it people are taking to Facebook by offering clothes offering food offering support even planning fundraisers to get the money together for those have been affected I know it's still early days but do we know how this fire started well at the moment police say they think it was started deliberately a special unit the major crime investigation team is now leading the investigation they're still in the early stages of investigating but at the moment they are treating as arson They are however calling for witnesses so if you were in the area this morning and saw or heard anything you can get in touch with them but calling one on one p.c. Watches Drew's with that story it's it's coming up to a quarter past 5 You're listening to every p.c. World playing Shamar 20 but don't impress me much. They were pretty small but. Then. As you. Know. That don't. Get. Don't impress me much. Christmas Paula maybe it's that time a year isn't it there's always the tricky K'naan dream of what to wear whether you're dressing to impress on not particular I suppose if you're a woman or a man you may want to go in for a bit of Christmas sparkle you could have worn one of the estimated 33. Outfits with sequins which are bought over the festive season the problem is 1700000 of those normal biodegradable garments straight in the bin after Christmas really ending up in landfill the average party out for is warmer at least 5 times before being thrown away so the charity Oxfam has teamed up with a crack team of female celebrities Alicia Dixon Alison Steadman Louise Redknapp Celia Imrie among others to trying Kara just to buy sequins secondhand The big question is would you would you go to a 2nd hand shop or charity shop to buy your outfit for a Christmas party well Jael Hawking is the Oxfam sustainable fashion expert she's going to persuade us will try anyway Jill to persuade us actually it's Ok to get your Christmas outfit to impress at the Christmas party from a 2nd hand shop. I'm very happy to do the persuading yet go this way did I lay a pair which Yeah well I mean barring 2nd hand I'm buying 3 can 2nd hand there is so much brilliant fashionable unique interesting things you can find in a 2nd hand shop and that means you'll look amazing but you'll also feel brilliant because when you're buying something 2nd hand then your shopping more sustainably you're giving something a 2nd chance and you're also supporting the charity So if you shop with found then you're supporting people who are living in poverty around the world so you get to feel brilliant look brilliant support those people around the world but then you also on the flip side saving us off the money because it's usually cheaper than high street style is just going to either yes you'll be saving yourself a bubble and that's what we all need to do this time of year that's a serious question here when it comes to sequins and I have to say I don't actually own anything with sequins myself but I know lots of people that don't know how long does sequins take to break down if they do end up in landfill you need to get yourself down to a 2nd hand shop class so make sure you got some of the sequins in the wardrobe I don't know and I'd say it's a good idea anyway I think they're for everyone but no they are. All theory of myth sequins are made of plastic and they don't biodegrade so when things go into landfills if you're throwing something away at the end of the season then that will not biodegrade that will still continue to be in until for years and years and years so when you're disposing of something do you make sure that you're donating it to a charity as well so that they can make the most of the item I am stunned that you know on average across a Christmas party outfit gets warm 5 times before it's discarded to the I find that stunning because they don't come cheap Do they. No and it's what's so symbolic of this time of year because we're all out Christmas parties and we've all got festive reasons to wear these quite unique things in the season including the Quins Christmas jumpers and so it makes sense that feeds into the then we might end up changing what we like or what pictures or anything like that so there's lots of reasons why you wouldn't necessarily wear something all that often so it's just making sure that when you're buying it you're buying it with that sustainable hat on and your thinking about 2nd hand as an option and when your finished with your item donating it to a charity shop so if you donate it to Oxfam no textiles and up in landfills so you'll see queen dress if it doesn't resell could end up in mattress filler and all sorts of interesting things or your local festival so there's loads of stuff that happens that's better than it going into landfill everything you've said to me makes absolute sense but still not many people go and buy their clothes from charity shops Why do you think that is. I think it's understandable because buying 2nd hand has it had a stigma you know many years ago charity shops are not what they are now now they're really legitimate offerings on the High Street I mean you you go into a charity shop nouns and times you don't even know you're in a charity shop for a little bit because they often sell fair trade new goods like to get them coffees and things but also the offering is so strong the things that you can buy off so lovely and so beautiful and so well taken care of and the volunteer teams work so hard to make sure that such lovely stuff goes out into the shop floor but also now you can buy online and you can search online so it's on going online shop and it means that you don't need to spend the hours going to the rail if you don't want to so the actual nature of charity shopping has changed and I definitely recommend that people just go and have a look on the high street or look online and just see what you can find Joe good to talk to the softer then thanks for being with us Joel Hawking is Oxfam sustainable fashion expert.

Yes it's pink it's Lacy So it's still feminine which is really nice it's a soft which is really important to use to wear. And you don't really want to surgery it's wide straps. And there just a ball which I found was really important because as you get a bit of swelling after the operation it's quite nice to be able to adjust up and down however you need it and the other thing that's really useful about it is that it doesn't sit up the front so you're not having to move your hands around the back to do it up which again post-surgery makes life much easier they've been really thought through carefully these have definitely all in the most important thing probably I forgot to mention is that they have little pockets so that you can slip in a pretty serious to balance out the size Yeah are you tempted you tempted to say to people you know when you're around are you tempted to psych Stella McCartney don't you know.

With it's coming up to a quarter to 6 get breakfast done so change the newly elected conservatives today in parliament as M.P.'s return for the 1st time since the general election but before the last well it wouldn't be great brush and without a good dollop of 400 year tradition to get things going again but a.b.c. World has political reporter down O'Brien can explain what you need to know of what has happened today so the 1st bit is basically like taking the register on the 1st day of the new school term yeah No one's quite sure where to say it they're still working out whether or not they like the sound of this newly emboldened head teacher and no one's quite sure whose turn it is to speak parliament has had to boot itself up again it can't just crack on straight where it left off and that means a whole load of tradition there with a synchronized duffing of cuts by the Royal Commission there's the bit where the new speaker Lindsay Hoyle has to pretend to be reluctantly drawn to his chair overlooking the room because Gone are the days of John Bercow then all the M.P.'s the prime minister the leader of the opposition all have to swear allegiance on whichever religious book they choose it was a nearly elect. Today M.P.'s 1st proper day back in the House of Commons today for most of our local ones they're getting rather used to this having won so many elections in the last decade but for one it was all brand new the conservative for divisors Danny Krueger is our one new m.p. Having taken over from Claire Perry who quit before the election you know it's a weird place you know we knew that already I think it's going to get better now you know just interesting to see walking across you know you remember a month ago 2 months ago this place was full of print protests and we couldn't be doing this interview without people shouting in the background and now pieces broken out in British politics and we're going to move forward once they got through all those formalities of course the small matter of actually running the country presumably has to start at some point where does this leave all the plans for Bret's it well that'll get up and running again later this week the Queen still has to do her speech about the government's agenda on Thursday then you can expect a vote on the break that planned on Friday this week remember that is the brig's it plan the government utterly failed repeatedly to get through the old parliament assuming it happens the u.k. Will leave the e.u. At the end of January but while that seals the divorce it doesn't sort out the visiting rights that's the future relationship member count starts on that with the current deadline of December next year to sign off on any new trade deal but we also now know the government has to add a new clause to the Briggs it law to rule out extending that deadline beyond the end of next year critics say this raises the chance of the u.k. Leaving the e.u. Without a trade deal at the end of all this trade deals typically take many many years to conclude but senior members of the cabinet have insisted the u.k. And e.u. Were committed to reaching an agreement by the end of 2020 to avoid any disruption to both their businesses Boris Johnson meanwhile has told the Commons that the newly elected parliament is a vast improvement on his predecessor and he repeated his key promise to voters which you might have heard him mention a few. Times before these people's parliament is going to do something Mr Speaker I might this be I want to get here and guess what it is this problem is going to do for you I want to go do this because we can operate it with me I'm going to get through this problem he's going to do once he put withdraw and remember that we're going to get great. Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn also spike warning Mr Johnson that he made many many promises to voters and now has to deliver on them and do we know any more yet about who might replace Jeremy Corbyn as leader of the Labor Party Well no at the moment we don't we know he is expected to go by March next year after what was the worst election for Labor since the 1930 s. But he won't go straight away so people expected to start vying to replace him of started setting out their stalls although none of them officially have done so yet Carol shadow chancellor John McDonnell has ruled himself out of the contest and says he wants the party to pick a female later so far there are more women than men included in the possible runners and riders in the race among them Rebecca long Bailey Angela Raina Jess Phillips Emily Thornberry and a star that we expect a date for Labor members to elect corporate successor to be set early in the New Year baby she watches political reporter Dan O'Brien there I feel in need of a Christmas song.

Christmas jumpers. So it seems that Christmas jumpers are a blight to the needs cracking down on it's in the news that many pubs are now banning the wearing of festive jumpers and they say it's because it tracks the wrong type of customers yes no one ever talks about this but I think we all fear seeing a gang on a street corner wearing the Christmas jumpers open the phone lines now and find someone who'll say the police should be deploying stuff inside to see that Christmas jumper is being hidden under a coat and then someone else will call in to say no this would leave the old white men would be it's being unfairly targeted and we're back to society running I'm joined now by someone who has a experience of dealing with a gang of Christmas jumper waris. Clearly Tell me about what happened everyone I work with in the grotto has been wearing Christmas jumpers and did they attack you Rob You perform a heist there myopes but the new story says that the yobs just because some louts were Christmas jumpers doesn't mean everyone in a Christmas jumper these birds so you don't want to see a band it's a useful Guard will be one of the caring where they jump up with the flashing Froogle knows what else overall it like a car call up jump was.

Who will replace Mr Cole been as leader the political strategist John McTernan who was Tony Blair's political secretary said the party needed to put ideals aside and vote tactically the membership have to ask themselves do they see the world in left right and therefore we've got to choose a left leader even though we've gone for a left the last 3 elections and we've lost every time or do we see the world in which we need a Labor government and therefore the test is not of the leader are you left or your right to are like you the test is could you win a general election on Saturday the prime minister visited the North East of England to thank focas voters in traditional Labor Harlan's for backing the conservatives their support helped Boris Johnson to secure his party's biggest general election win for 8 years speaking in Tony Blair's old constituency of Sedgefield in County Durham Mr Johnson acknowledged the breaking the voting habits of generations would not have been easy I understand how big a step that is for some people for some families and we are going to repay that trust we are going to deliver on the things that matter to them and yes of course it's about getting resident but it's also about the n.h.s. It's about public services and it's about a basic view of the country that is going to be better off if you have one nation conservatism So what Misty do now to keep the trust of people like these voters in Sedgefield will be does a good job going to get better don't and I will be gets the n.h.s.

But you have a back for a while other group was fiction factory from the 1980 s. Now the song is called feels like heaven it is b.b.c. Radio Kent where he also feels like heaven we will be speaking to one or 2 of you regarding 1st response in a few minutes from now 1st let us rewind to yesterday and research for the Conservative Party Robbie Lamas Medway councillor and Labor group leader Vince maple and politics lecturer a Dr Sam Powell all joined Lembit yesterday to react to what was an eventful week in u.k. Politics Strictly Come Dancing and the general election don't exactly go hand in hand old do they won't both came to a dramatic finale last week but it might surprise you that Strictly was on the minds of Lembit and his panel yesterday I want to dance on to win because I think he's very you know a real kind of Trooper for that show and you know anyone who got to Dr Di have and will become as a power no one you know I think I mean nice I don't I waited to deserve that frankly but I thought him and am of a very good about our I missed out last night I was out regrettably so I haven't seen I was a council consulate but. Obviously well done to Kelvin victorious just as I was a spoiler for the low so I never really went and I think you are in a ton of if he is very very well respected and if this story in The Daily Star is true well he's to leave so Frank said that yeah quite right. This will be the before Christmas I mean not the election result but the apparently call into the Daily Star on Sunday to back it had a check of executive producer saying that he wants to leave strictly on a high I mean it's not confirmed whether or not he wants to actually leave on not in the story but nonetheless people who love Strictly will be horrified at the King of ballroom mind you know how he's been really annoying about this is people should be allowed to decide let the people decide this they should have another vote on this there should be a referendum it was interesting because. Now people are calling for a 2nd poll to take place on the winner of Strictly you know they're saying it wasn't done fairly people were misled they didn't know what they were voting for I think they probably did they don't know that can come from that chart up well I think there was a lot of high quality steps I thought might put you out of the whole series might put you in for me was a man who I thought did amazing stuff he's probably got about the same level of rhythm as myself so I think he did exceptionally well but we've spoken about it on the show before I think bizarrely I was on here one of the previous Sundays after the final when is it is that great ability for you know we've got box sets now on Netflix and other online providers but actually there's still millions of people gathering around the telly on a Saturday night for good old fashioned family entertainment so I think actually that shouldn't be underestimated really but Vence do you think that Kelvin can after all of that voting do you think he can unite the country and the contestants or do you think that there's just no irretrievable I think he was dancing for the many not the few. What the what does the vote in. Please tell us about the nation well if you're a lecturer in politics it's funny you should say that actually I think they're probably as bad as people that study these these kinds of things we can actually learn a lot from things like Strictly I think one of the best focus groups that you can have is on a program like Gogglebox you know if you if you get these people talking about politics in the way that they do sometimes actually these things are really really interesting so I think you could probably learn quite a lot and there's multiple Ph D.'s to be done I imagine about what the winners of strictly tell us about what was what's happening in politics at that particular time so maybe Kelvin was the candidate that we needed at the time and I think we see. No more political creatures I promise you but I think I think this is a good amount I think it was the 1st. Other x. Factor or Paul I think in Pop Idol Angele the one where it was well versus guy with more people voted in that final than the previous general election so there is there is an appetite for kind of engagement and involvement in some of these talent programs where people get to have their have their say there's Medway councillor and labor group leader Vince maple finishing that piece from yesterday's call Lembit and of course the legend that is Lembit Oh pick we'll return to your radio this Friday from 9 o'clock here on b.b.c.

What would you write in that I end up writing an essay in each and every Christmas card like pouring my heart Alex and I just wouldn't get it done by December the 25th I just wouldn't it's too much I'm going to send a festive email around to like friends or relations Yeah maybe I'll send a flying car let me stop you there one minute what about these e-mailed Christmas cards these festive I like them no I don't loathe them why absolutely loathe them why I don't dine out so I'm sorry I hope no one who sent me one is listening and they don't ever thank you I don't even open them I don't like them Scrooge but some of the really good that you get were nice animation and you get a little song as well you get like animals dancing and things it's really fun honestly jump to it the problem is that if you have a sense of Carson about the environment and we kind of also trace I know they would say this is a novel maybe plan and stuff you know is that is that reason not to send them no it's not a reason not to send them because I spent some time in the paper trying to actually it is exactly what they do were trees are a crop the sort of trees used for paper and so they made it an issue and it's completely recyclable of course that's true how do we get around the fact that it would probably take me about 3 days solid to like actually without doing anything else not stopping to eat or sleep to do all the Christmas cards and it depends how much you care about me I care enough to get a Christmas card they accepted. So I would also do what Sports Personality of the year yes of course well because canteen Ashley Smith came through Ben Stokes was the winner is a nice redemption story we discussed who came 2nd Lewis Hamilton good Ok.

And thanks very much Kristen she'll be back on the half hour on the earth throughout the program this is news drive here till half past 6 newly elected M.P.'s are gathering in Westminster the start of a week in which the government wants them to vote through Boris Johnson's breaks that deal as the dust begins to settle after last week's election the prime minister will address his M.P.'s the ceiling and within the last hour the s.n.p. Has held the media regarding to introduce its 12 new piece So what's going on then to discuss with our Westminster goddess bonnet David Porter who joins me now David day one for many of these new M.P.'s are some of the Tory M.P.'s coming there with their blue scarves Yes Bill it is a bit like the 1st day at school for many of them today a lot of them looking slightly perplexed some of them don't even think thought they were going to be here until Thursday night in the event early on Friday morning so there are a great deal of new faces around Westminster trying to get to grips with the way Westminster operates they most of them have not even tried to find their way around the building yet that is probably too much of an ask on day one but you know that what they are doing they are basically getting their security passes they are not getting their offices yet that takes a few days but getting crucial things like email account so their constituents can get in touch with them and what tends to happen is that when an m.p. Is elected very very quickly they start receiving lots of letters and things like that so they are sort of trying to find their their whereabouts around this place today because they know that now their life is going to change probably more than many of them had ever thought. They will be expected to hit the grown running politically on yes they will do what is happening today a lot of them are arriving at Westminster tomorrow the House of Commons will meet and will reaffirm that it wants a Lindsay oil who was elected towards the end of the last parliament speaker of the House of Commons then M.P.'s will start basically taking the oath in which they they basically agree to the rules of the House of Commons that process because there are so many of them often takes about 2 days Thursday this week we will get the government's legislative program the Queen's speech on Friday we are expecting that the withdrawal agreement bill the bill that will basically give legal entity to breaks it will be voted on in principle by the House of Commons because Boris Johnson and Conservative M.P.'s have been very keen and keen to be seen to getting on with the whole issue of breaks and Cabinet appointments expected today yet we are expecting a couple today because this is not going to be a 4 reshuffle as often you get when a government comes into being but we know that we need a couple of cabinet vacancies to be filled one will be the job of Culture and Media secretary making Morgan the previous holder of that post decided that she would stand down at the election and that could be a key post going forward the 2nd one is the position of Welsh record 3 at the beginning of the campaign then we are secretary Alan cans was forced to resign so we know there are at least 2 jobs that there are various ministerial posts one of which at the Scotland Office because the Minister of State Colin Clark did not win last Thursday night so at some point they will have to put in someone to take his place but we are expecting there will be a major cabinet re. Shuffle but that probably won't take place to tell the truth about fabrics year and the s.n.p. Showing off their new M.P.'s yet within the last half an hour s.n.p. M.P.'s have been gathering outside of the Palace of Westminster they have 12 new M.P.'s taking their total to $47.00 M.P.'s in Bradford the leader of the Westminster group down here at Westminster for the s.n.p. Say their job was to be the conscience of Scotland's again repeating something we will hear a lot of this week from s. And p. Politicians that there should be a 2nd independence referendum and it should be up to the people of Scotland to decide when that will be no so say the conservatives Senior Conservative Scottish m.p. Andrew Berry says they will not be a 2nd independence referendum sanctioned by this conservative government the s.n.p. Had a very good night in Scotland it was not a vote for another independence referendum we've got to move this country forward put it put it put a lead on the constitutional rights of the next 5 years and start focusing on the priority of the British people that's what we're determined to down here in Westminster and my sort of conservative colleagues and I who were lucky enough to be return to be fighting very hard to make sure that Scotland's place is firmly within that United Kingdom and we get the benefit of this conservative majority government up north as well so what is the answer when the request comes formally from is go to the government for the power to have that India left to affirm and unequivocal no and was liberal up to David the short answer is falling out with each other they are getting to grips with their election defeat the worst performance by the Labor Party since 1935 there are an increasing number of Labor M.P.'s who is saying that Jeremy Corbyn should go and go quickly he says that he wants a period of reflection and he wants the leadership process to begin in January there are others quite frankly. He was saying that because of the result last week he will probably have to go sooner rather than later so that is one to watch but also it does appear that senior Labor politicians are now openly Fawley out with each other we had an extraordinary situation between the shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry and previously Labor m.p. Caroline Flint she'd lost her seat on Thursday and she is alleged to have said that she believed that Emily thought thought that voters in the north were not intelligent enough to understand breaks it. Is always been on the remains side of the Labor Party Caroline Flint because the constituency in Yorkshire which represented has been on the brakes its side now everything will be says she did not say this and she's asked our infant to withdraw those comments so far that hasn't happened and now Emily Thornberry is threatening that she would take legal action against Caroline fled it perhaps some up at the moment the divisions within the Labor Party It may not come to legal action but it does show quite graphically how sections of the Labor Party are open warfare with each other at the moment David Porter at Westminster Thank you. Plans to increase health and social care staffing to cope with growing demands have been set up by the Scottish Government the workforce plan includes a commitment to increase the number of district nurses by almost 400 over 200 specialist physiotherapists as well as a new specialist service for stroke patients the plan into at the end of last year and comes out a report by the public spending was stalled that criticized the lack of any long term planning and investment in community services or health correspondent Lisa Somers joins me now and we saw what we've seen published today Well that's right as you say this has been a long time coming this workforce plan is part of a broad piece of work looking at staffing and across the n.h.s. And also in social care because when you think about it Health and Social Care integration were set up in December 25th Drinan there has been quite a lot of criticism that progress has been too slow there's not been enough joined up thinking about how you deal with the changing needs of health care and how you move to this vision of caring for people in the community for longer and there for taking the pressure off hospitals as you see old Scotland has consistently raised this and has pointed to the fact that decisive action is needed or the n.h.s. Is not going to be sustainable so what you're getting today really is a kind of vision for how things will change and what we're forced demands are going to be required to make that happen in the future so what level of staffing does it commit to one of the things that report does is it says that an additional $20000.00 staff are going to be needed to reform services within 5 years across health and social care it points to the fact that predictions sure that the elderly population in Scotland will be up by 25 to 35 percent by 2035 things do you have to change now already in Scotland we do have more n.h.s. Staff pred of population than England does but it says that we also need to think about increasing things like district nurses saw $375.00 additional district nurses $225.00 specialist physios more community pharmacists the law so provide training places for. People like clinical psychologists all of this is really about trying to support edgy piece to be the center of delivering health care in the community but putting in place advance advance specialists who can do this and what we did know some of this detail before now we have had some of these announcements made before it's about putting it all together in a way that shows that the government and also local authorities are committed and have a plan to tackle those future challenges and what sort of reaction has there been well it has been broadly welcomed in part because it has been so long coming but there have been a number of organizations that have raised concerns about the lack of detail in this plan the British Medical Association for example points out the fact that it's already been incredibly difficult to fill the number of long term vacancies they have vacancies within the n.h.s. In terms of doctors so they want to see more detail and how on earth they're going to actually fill the posts that have been created despite committing to filling to create a more training places are or filling reports the Royal College of nurses say that they're pleased with the commitment to numbers but they're worried that even with these extra district nurses there might not actually be enough to change the way that services are delivered one of the things to point out here is the same they have also and I'm stuck kind of National Stroke service that has to be an investment of 600000 pounds to create a specialist on back to me service in 9 wells and done d. That has been welcomed and because it means additional training and also potentially better support in the community for rehabilitation for stroke patients as well. Lisa Somers our health correspondent thank you. News drive on b.b.c. Radio Scotland the headlines 19 minutes past 4 newly elected M.P.'s have been arriving at Westminster at the start of a week in which they're expected to be asked to vote on Boris Johnson's breaks that bill after years of campaigning hundreds of postmasters have won a key victory against the post office and the controversial accounting software they were forced to use and the clone has rejected an offer to settle a proceeds of crime case against them in for a kid couple who model a vulnerable woman in their care unless we get on his bringing your Christmas playlist fight every occasion from those festive founds you please speak to the family in the plane that works night I went. On to Carol's from the Glasgow Chamber Choir was her. By tonight from 6 there are less important every year feeling festive on b.b.c. Sounds like you. Get it on with Brian Barnet on b.b.c. Radio Scotland. Thieves have reportedly stolen $50000000.00 pounds worth of jewelry from Tamara Eccleston's hoes in London she was on holiday at the time the daughter of the former Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone was said to be shaken and angry after the robbery and flayed in night Jon Donnison is in Kensington 50000000 pounds worth of jewelry reportedly stolen and quite a heist this here is known as billionaires row one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the whole country tomorrow Eccleston's house more than 50 rooms now police say that on Friday night they were called out to a burglary just after 11 o'clock and they say that an amount of Haya value jewelry. It's stolen now they say no arrests have been made at the moment tomorrow at the sun she said a spokesperson for the family has said that they are shaken and angry now they weren't actually there at the time because they had travelled overseas on holiday for the Christmas holidays but clearly a pretty old Aisha's hoists Now you look at the street here it's got several big embassies on a Including the Israeli Embassy so very high security you've got armed police at the bottom of the road and presumably the house itself has pretty high security now the Sun newspaper is reporting that the thieves 3 of them got in through the back of the property and then went to rifle through the house and found the safes with this jury inside but 50000000 pounds I mean that's a huge help to think of a robbery on this scale and here in the world Jon Donnison reporting foes of hedgehogs have had to be rescued because what weather has left them to underweight to hibernate almost a photos and have been admitted to the Scottish s.p.c. a National rescue center since September have been speaking to Superintendent Sean Connery from the child to this he is 2019 has been one of the busiest years the whole years. We fight over 2000 dead fish this year and it's just the conditions or is the fact that there are more hedgehogs to. I think it's basically dying as the weather conditions and October October also are busiest month 463 comment on $11.00 so we saw some head of it this time of the year but I think the weather has a lot to do with it because the temperatures are quite mild and the middle of August through talked to over there was a lowly letter a little letters a paycheck so when it comes this time of the year they're too small and they don't have enough fat reserves for to go into hibernation so we get them into over centers and was involved in a little fattening them up or getting them a place to hibernate. Well I don't resent it we keep them if they're under 600 grams we keep them we can try till next year we just give them a steady. On a daily basis dog food and we flatten them up so they're healthy and we for at least getting next year and what will happen then and then we'll release them we have a lot of different allocations that can really cement safe areas and you know they into the forests and roots not so that they can live a normal life back in the wild we only feed and them make sure they're clean and give them water we're doing a lot with them so that the wild comes that able to be the least it's a big operation though presumably that's quite costly. It is very costly but the school is public. And we do appeals often on our Facebook page on the social media page and people to need food to last so it's really really great to helps tremendously and we're so grateful for as costly in terms of money but presumably man and woman power to do you need more volunteers or anything. Yes we always look for volunteers I write a life sentence this time apart from the hate hoax and it's quite quiet but if anybody wishes to volunteer this you check our website and all the details that are on the air but we'd love people to follow it to your web or members of the public who find a hedgehog at this time of the year if they see a hedgehog in the moving around to mean that the are not hibernating and should have been yes if they had any hedgehogs unity at this time of the year that either too small to hype a knee and little conflict food or their thang and b.c. It or do you have some problem you know that needs to be seen by a fair so if you see any hay choke back are small I. Am at this time a year definitely give the Scottish s.p.c.s. And we'll take and tell him that wildlife center is the only limit to how many you can look after things and at the moment. And there's no limit and you know obviously and we struggle to fight spaces but we would never talk in a way that needs over detail we could always find some way afford it to go within the facilities subcontinent some comedy of the Scottish as p.c.a. The telly No 25 pass for high school for sport here's Iona balance and thank you Belle the Europa League last 32 draw was made earlier sounds like will face Copenhagen and Rangers will play Portuguese side Braga the ties take place at the end of February with Celtic away for the 1st leg and Rangers beginning at Neil Lennon side have previously faced Copenhagen when they were champions league opponents and 2006 with led in part of a team that won one nil at home but then suffered a 3 want a feat in the Danish capital Rangers meanwhile have never played Braga The former midfielder Alex Ray says that the draw could have been tougher for the I broke sight with a I think when you look at Salzburg I accept things that quite useless have been very difficult I think this is a medium draw really when you think about what's by going to some of a good technical team top to group in against Wolves as well. As not all monks and have to treat it with respect really well are to portaging lyrics has been speaking to Rangers and Celtic fans and Glasgow to hear their thoughts on the ties but also in those funds I'm pleased to be out the door has been made definitely ever told that sort of visitors will be paid for with char a man team from Portugal in my my estimation so I think that happened to be chance so when I smell a Celtic and against Kobe he can still think it's been special nothing for me to have my feet over me and have been tough gave him my feet I think we have to wait for a good piece he would be defended by some Fabian of course to do that by some company just a plain duty to feel confidence we'll have more on this throughout the program and stay with Celtic near Baton has signed a new 3 and a half year deal which will see him to me. At the club until 2023 Well meanwhile in the Champions League holders Liverpool were Jonna gets Let's call Madrid in the last 16 bunches to say he will play Real Madrid Chelsea happy Jonna gets by Munich while Tottenham face pundits legal leaders r.p. Leipsic elsewhere Grant Scott has resigned from his position as head coach of a Bernie ladies it's understood to become increasingly frustrated with the failure to affiliate the team or directly with the man set up Scott's resignation will come as a huge blow to Hibs ladies who face the prospect of several players also leaving to sign professional contracts rising star Jamie Lee Napier and Kirsten Riley have already left in recent weeks to join clubs in England Heather Gerrard reports as it stands to Bernie ladies a part of a community foundation in the not directly affiliated with the Easter Road club however it has long been their desire to move towards a more professional set up talks to introduce changes are under way but that process has been long drawn it's all in stark contrast to the likes of Rangers and Celtic who've committed to paying their players on a full time basis with Hearts taking their team in highs Skalds Hibs ladies won back to back League Cups a Scottish Cup and reached the last 32 of the Women's Champions League and the England team g.b. Had to coach Phil Neville says Scotland will be well represented in the Olympic women's football team next year Neville says he has already spoken to several Scottish players about being selected but obviously is not guaranteed you don't explode from a couple of sets well all the players that. Were going to take the best players even though I am a manager the next from someone on the g.b.

Radio Scotland news well is it weather for talks to wrap up warm or can they be just for a bunch of us certainly pretty chilly out there Bill thanks very much indeed and for some wintry actually we've got a band of rain sleet and snow moving its way northward across parts of Highland Grampian and the Met Office has just issued a yellow weather warning for some snow and ice through parts of those areas as well so if you joining up and down the a 9 north of Perth expect some wintry weather and did other high road routes in the area as well for most the seedling if you get some wet weather it will be of rain perhaps a bit of a sleety mix at times but rain for most is just through parts of East Highland and northwards that we're seeing and think more significant in terms of wintry weather for much of the Central Belt and the south through the course of this evening and overnight it's dry a quite clear at times as well and certainly quite cold we're looking at the overnight temperatures around about 02 plus 3 Celsius but in the countryside it will be colder than that so even out with that yellow warning area there is a risk of ice where we've got to. Amp services and the temperature falling away to tomorrow and we still have low pressure nearby but a much lighter winds and actually after a cloudy start with some showers this in improving story tomorrow by afternoon will be some sunshine for many of us quite crisp conditions still quite chilly but you know really probably average temperatures for this time in December were looking afternoon highs anything up to around 6 Celsius but still a few showers and some cloudy skies to contend with the 1st thing then that takes us nicely to Wednesday will be a cold start to the day on Wednesday some mist and fog around at times and then as we head through the day when strength thing from the south cloud building and rain arrives later as the forecast. On digital radio f.m. Medium wave and b.b.c. Sun's b.b.c. Radio Scotland this is news drive on Bill White for the former deputy Provest of our body in has been referred to a national standards watchdog after he was found guilty of sexual assault Alan Donnelly was convicted last Friday but remains a city councillor a reporter David sharks in Aberdeen has been following the story just you know David was the situation the council know well Bill Allen Donnelly resigned his membership of the Conservative party but as you mentioned is still an Aberdeen City Councillor he's not yet tendered his resignation to the chief executive we've attempted to contact him today to find out if you intends to do so but he wasn't available for comment now a meeting is due to be held today within the ruling conservative and labor ministration here in Aberdeen to decide what action to take no they're in power with a majority of one sort of moving Kunstler Donnelly could mean losing that majority and a potential restructure of committees to reflect the new political landscape speaking to us earlier the conservative group leader Douglas Lumsden said the question of whether he remains a counsellor should be answered by Mr Donnelly you know he's no longer a member of my group so I can't I can't instruct him what to what to do. It is a matter for foreign himself but I think he needs to give you know careful consideration as far as I'm concerned he's overseas is resigned from the party he's no longer a member of our group and therefore no longer as a member of the administration until you know I'll be looking at ways to remove him from all committees that is representing the conservatives and remove him from all external groups with the represents the administration did this come a boat well throat his trial in court Mr Donnelly had denied kissing and touching a man who was working at an event in the city but on Friday he was found guilty of sexual assault sentencing was deferred for reports until next month now today we've learned that he's been referred to the ethical standards commissioner and the Liberal Democrat group on the council are also calling for safeguards to be put in place for staff and members of the public who will work and come into contact with councilor Donnelly their group leader in you'll believes the former deputy Provost can't continue in his position and want him to resign nature of the conviction the conviction of a sexual assault in the interview parents would only is absolutely unfit to hold public office he should have resigned on Friday when he was convicted he should resign today. He. Should resign soon as possible there is division is untenable and the sooner he goes the better but we've spoken to Aberdeen City Council in the last hour who say no resignation has been received by the chief executive so despite his conviction as of note Mr Donnelly remains the councillor for the Tory and very Hill ward in Aberdeen chunks in Aberdeen thanks very much. 1st talks are being held over the future of the storm and to assembly in Northern Ireland following the general election it's almost 3 years since parachuting collapsed the leaders of the 5 main parties are meeting with the Northern Ireland secretary in a bid to restore devolution which any minute to discuss the latest stops journalist Dennis money and Dennis has the political landscape changed because or since the general election. Yes and probably permanently as well. It would be wrong to draw too many empirical conclusions from the recent general election results in Northern Ireland because there were so many local factors but I think you can draw a conclusion that the Unionist majority is gone forever in terms of representation that however doesn't mean there is going to be a majority for United Ireland because a lot of the support mostly from the Democratic Unionist Party the main Unionist Party these days and some from Sion Fein astonishingly has gone to the Alliance Party which was always seen by the nationalist and Unionist parties as a waste of votes and a middle class laughingstock Well they've really built up. A surge it's not momentum yet but it's getting close to that so I think the landscape looks very different to what it did partly partly because of Bracks it but also partly because of the lack of devolution since 2017 Yeah and we're told that party workers going around the doors from both sides of the divide we're hearing from voters you know it's time to get Stormont back on track Yes I people are sick of it I think that another thing that I rather took Sion Fein by surprise was when you vote tradition Fane you know you're voting for an abstention ist m.p. And I think they started to get some grief this times this time in the doorsteps because people into Ronan from. Manner a little voted for Sinn Fein in their droves they're not watching the Irish parliament live on t.v. They're watching the House of Commons on for 2 years now they watch nothing but a succession of Democratic Unionists talking about their future with the exception of the recently retired and dependent m.p. But there's a real political imperative to get storm and back which there hasn't been for a long time one is Sin Fein had a terrible election in the Republic of Ireland in the spring and their local elections because they don't look like a party of government when they're not in government in Northern Ireland and Sion Fein cares deeply about hard does in the rest of the island and for the d.p. The devious finally woken up to the fact that without the assembly the union is very fragile when there's diva Lucian the union is much more secure and they also had a deeply unpleasant experience for them of this legislation on abortion and equal marriage coming through. And then they also got a tremendous amount of earache on the doorsteps about the crisis and it really is a crisis in Northern Ireland and the National Health Service So there's lots of imperatives to get back to work which they have not been for a while and what about the choreography of any potential restarting of the assembly you know we've we've heard the non-secular Julian Smith today saying that he was hopeful that something could be done this going to be talks later this week or the deadlines one of the it was a potential time to there's a deadline in the middle of January that if evolution isn't restored by then they're there legally have to be an election but central government could very easily legislate for that not to happen if the talks are going well the parties don't want another election for a whole lot of reasons. The do you pay did very badly in the last assembly elections and both the deviation Fane didn't do terribly well in the recent general election. The smaller parties are right of money after $3.00 elections in Northern Ireland in one year already. So I'm not sure you're going to have agreement by the middle of January but I think you will have agreement fairly quickly for this reason Julien Smith is going to stay as the secretary of state for Northern Ireland and he is not just a heavy hitter but because he was a chief whip he is an expert at arm twisting and law growling at things that are very important in a negotiation and also for the 1st time since the general election of 2017 he's going in as a neutral honest broker he's not going in Afraid to annoy the d u p because the arithmetic at Westminster is changed to radically so why do you have a perfect storm about Northern Ireland and evolution for a couple of years I think that the weather forecast as much brighter for getting deal Lucian back and who will give way or presumably both sides have to give way to some extent but there are there have been key stumbling blocks on the main stumbling stumbling block is over an Irish language legislation which I think is easy enough to resolve because the d.p. Could easily say well look we have to model models to look at in Britain and Wales and Scotland about indigenous languages they could tie it to what they call Ulster Scots although I must to say to my ear Ulster Scots sons like my granny from Ballymena used to tour. But here's the thing Sinn Fein had for really big issues going in to diva Lucian 10 years plus ago in 2007 and the d.d.p. Stymied on all 4 of them and the ice language is the only one that's left which means that the d.p. Really has nothing to trade in exchange. There would be the only ones compromising but there was deep opposition and Unionists. Grassroots to their being an Irish language act simply because it was an assertion Fane policy and I think given the changed circumstances they're going to decide it will look an Irish language or a culture Act which is what it'll probably be called in the end if you're going to have a culture act better that in the end of the Union because so many people are forecasting the end of the Union and even after all I've said I think the union both in Scotland and Northern Ireland is at its most fragile in our 20100 years and us money will leave it without Thanks very much. News drive on b.b.c. Radio Scotland course to 5 the new start of headlines newly elected M.P.'s have gathered and Wes most of us Polish Johnson prepares to bring his brakes deal back to the Commons sort of Emily Thornberry is threatening legal action against a former colleague a Scot real has laws this new winter timetable promising more trains and more seats on the busiest routes.

It's closed between the Emmy and the 8 Paisley Road which could sleep done if you take this route told b.b.c. Radio Scotland travel this Christmas the I'll bring you the story of one of the most successful Scottish albums of all time when the man who came along to go absolutely hammered in the press. Record which received a lukewarm response to one afternoon a glass complete changed everything for Travis it's like a magic song with special superpowers systemic that have been safe enough. To. Join me Paul English for troublous the man who at 20 is that thing the other that we're a proper by know we've recorded in Abbey Road should you say. Christmas the from 2 here on b.b.c. Radio Scotland protesters are on the streets of several Indian cities demonstrating about a new law on illegal migrants which some critics see as anti muslim tear gas has been used roads have been blocked and 6 people have died demonstrations are known their 5th day earlier I spoke to the b.b.c. East Asia correspondent and bought a sun I thought Arjun thousands of students have held a protest over the weekend here in the capital Delhi protesting against his controversial citizenship law many of them feel that this law is discriminatory to worse Muslims because the law fast tracks citizenship to people who fled will flee from neighboring Muslim countries like Afghanistan Pakistan and Bangladesh due to religious persecution Now the controversial part of that law is Muslims have been excluded that's why many students say that it goes against the fundamental values of secular traditions of India and that's why they have been protesting on the other hand for people in northeastern India which is like close to Bangor base and Myanmar and they have a different problem for this law because they think by giving citizenship to people who came from other countries that. What are the demography of that region because many of them are indigenous communities tribes they don't want outsiders to come and settle because they fear that their culture and identity will be affected and they will take over the land and jobs at that so for the same law there are 2 different kinds of protests going across India and what's the response of the authorities been have the been taken by surprise yes indeed they have been taken by surprise by the scale of this protest So what did started in the northeast have been the over the last few days and then the protests moved to Delhi the capital city and then people saw you know the Wyland happened during the protests which police say a one year small group of protesters were involved but many students they accuse the police of brutality and the force that we enter the university campus and attacked many students but police denied these accusations and they were taking This is a reaction to bring the situation under control but what this done what this has done is this is parked out spontaneous protest in other parts of the country like in other cities like in Bangalore Hyderabad so that a stick in the government but really by surprise they don't expect so many students showing solidarity with the students in Delhi so that is why the Indian prime minister Narendra Modi has appealed for calm and he said the while it was very unfortunate and distressing at the same time now the opposition parties of launched a scathing attack on the government for what they describe as declaring a war on its own people is that only terms that the government world reverse track on the slaughter. It is very tricky situation for the government because they have refused to back down so far but there are increasing protests and one of the ministers hinted that they're willing to tweak the law if necessary but it's not very clear because whether this will switch the feelings of people in the northeast of India because there are 2 different groups of people in a protesting against this particular law whether you can satisfy every group because people in the north east of India which is bordering bank but they say they do not want any make friends and the government initiated a program called national registry up to distance and which more than $2000000.00 people that will meet it from that list which means they have to prove that they were Indian citizens they had enough papers to prove they were Indian and many of them came from Bangladesh so there is a lot of issues here for the government to address and at the moment government doesn't want to show that it is a backing down but if the protest spread a bit continues for a few more days then it will pose a big challenge to the government about a son that are done in Delhi and what is a fresh turkey not a fresh turkey want some month old you might think but many of the birds being bought in the run up to Christmas will be just start of him being kept in deep chill we're hoses minus 2 Celsius and gas flushed to remove Well you Pennington is emeritus professor of back to the audience at the University of Aberdeen Hello rather what do you make of these techniques to sell us fresh turkeys when they're a month old well yes I mean it all depends on what you mean by fresh if you think it's going to be still warm you know after after it's been killed and want to have a Starfleet isn't. Really a trading standards issue you know what does the public expect when they buy fresh there are they obviously expect Number one they expect the bird to be soured the terms of taste and all the also expect the bird to be sounded turds of freedom from microbes you know you're going to get food poisoning and all that kind of stuff and not. You know those those are really take care of by these cooling process in fact the birds are probably slightly safer than the birds that are just come straight from the farm but on the other hand if the public thinks they're getting fresh newly sort of slaughtered turkeys and so on well then there was a mistake and so it's pretty close to what's on the label the suppliers themselves say this is the only way you can meet this sudden surge in demand at the festive period I suppose of a point the other way would be to to fleece all the turkeys which Well that's right and you know that I think the public prefers to eat fresh in a vertical was compared to the frozen actually the frozen turkeys are slightly safer I would not want to slightly safer from the point of view of the common as food policy but Kempler back to which is on the surface of the of the bird and that's not for 6 by my freezing of the thawing you know it's down by 90 percent that kind of thing you know this there's been talk over the years of doing that as a kind of safety measure because unfortunately we haven't been able to get those come contamination levels right down to it you know even in remotely near 0 you know that they're still in the in the I well I made the talk about the present clearly you know if you cut the bird properly and you handle it properly there's no risk just the bugs they're all killed by that because they're also not by the freezing so you know if you had to choose between fresh or freshly cut was frozen from the safety point if you choose the frozen but of course that lends you in this in the sort of trouble of inadequately thawed talkies and adequately cooked Tuckey's it just mistimed Yes and that's really a taste issue the you know the basically well there is obviously a slight safety issue because Sete Afridi doesn't kill all the bugs so you really have to be very careful and follow the instructions that the absolute thing you must do is read the instructions on the label as it were and how long you have to to thaw the bird before and how long you have to cook it so that it's going to. Right through that the bugs are on the outside of the meat and I'm looking at it from a sort of microbiological point of view the not in the actual beat itself but on the other hand if you cook a bird to 70 degrees for 2 minutes the bugs are dead but of course if it's frozen and it's thawing slowly Well it might be quite difficult to get to those temperatures so basically follow the instructions and you'll be you'll be fine and the bird will taste fired as well Professor Hugh Pennington Wise words as ever thanks very much. The fans of famous comics from done deal being asked to share their memories of their favorite characters from a new book it's been put together by the University of Dun D's Christopher money the world's 1st professor of comic studies spoke to us earlier well I've been working on comics for searching and teaching comics for for many years never you know I don't do any and also somebody who lives and works and doesn't he always been fascinated by by Dundee's comics history and over the various bits and pieces of research I've done over the last couple years some interesting will take bits of information about Doesn't he kept coming out either for speaking to people or doing a lot of research or well bits of the story that isn't usually told about done these comics history so become Yeah because it was the story the so often told us about d.c. Thompson isn't a top and the bees are and so forth and great characters like desperate done but you're finding that there was a comic history long before D.C.'s Yeah very much so as you say everybody knows you know and everybody knows the great products of comics of of don't these great comics publishing empire but the more I've done research there's this one arresting stories that come out it's not like certain aspects of d.c. Thomson's history perhaps but also agree rich tradition of comics production in the same. Material that d.c. Thomson's produced I've been very interested to find out about some of the very early comic strips that were being published and done d. Some of them came out of the street magazines like done d c Yeah cool the wast and they were being published in 88 Teasley 88800. For the turn of the century and there was periodicals often hard comic strips in them so I'm tracing the history of that and what is a but done d. . Then that gave birth to comics Well there's a couple of things there my colleague my future. Is that museum Services University has done to you just a couple years ago rubric about our history and don't be don't we had a very very rich history in the mid 19th century and that was largely because the g. Industry lots of money in Dundee people wanting to want to. Represent their effect wealth by buying and purchasing art so it was a vibrant art scene and on the official art scene in Dundee That was Friday evening in the 19th century which is kind of been forgotten about under does that tell you in with sort of postcards seaside postcards and that sort of thing oh very much so and this is key John Lange which was one of the publishers here and done deed of his 'd journaling d.c. Thomson's those cup companies later marriage to an earlier 20th century but they were great rivals John laying hired Martin I understand who later became very famous as cynicus he would he became famous for satirical postcards made a fortune in producing producing this yet he was the 1st illustrator hired by a newspaper in the u.k. The origins of the actually really fascinating because Jordan Lang really you know the it with technology to images within newspapers lots of illustrated magazines newspapers tended to be primarily text but was a to real bridge disaster that kind of brought this revolution when that happened it was international news already world journalling finds that whenever any visual material in a newspaper such as you know a graph or a photograph or anything like that the papers instantly sold out so this convinced them to invent very heavily in the technology to embed visual material with Finnish newspapers and with the thought that there were so many visual artist drawn to Dundee the 19th century and early 20th century. They're a big publishing house John Lange we are to become introducing Thompson's heart this technology factor so I believe it brought about a moment we're done he was really just to take advantage of this and that continued well into the 20th century as Professor Christopher money from the University of done d.

Did that sound sincere I mean I meant it sincerely I'm not sure it's not been horrible for because she she does talk quite a bit and so she's lost her voice the children were away the grandparents over the weekend while we did things that parents have to do this to me and. That's kind of more or less sorted although I did add to that a little bit this morning on the way into work but on Saturday for reasons Jessica you self so wound up and in such a foul mood that you can't really put your finger on why you're in a foul mood and you don't really know even where it started but you just get kind of into this spiral where you start off in a fairly bad mood and then everything just sort of adds to it from the person who forgets to indicate at the roundabout to the person who is standing in the queue in the shop and won't move out of the way all that kind of thing I ended up in such a foul mood that we ended up going to a shop that hadn't yet opened one of these ones where the used to be a home base and you know the clothes lots of home bases was supposed to be replaced by the range like the one in Phantom and I was thinking I need to get my dad a birthday card so did that went to the range that doesn't open until the 20th of December you thinking are they going to put their Christmas stocking on or not for like 4 days anyway the shot was shot not even I used language and I wouldn't dare to share with you at this time on a Monday afternoon on the radio stormed off and promptly walked into a tree and I think this was karma coming to get me the idea that I've been in such a bad mood it could have really upset me and some even further down but in fact I just laughed at myself and carried on how much better day for it the times when you walked into a tree and felt better for it there's a nice topic for a phone in trouble 3 stoking your message nobody will have walked into a tree and felt better for it apart from me there might be some labor people who want to. Walking to trees in that sort of metaphorical sense the fallout of the general elections already turning nasty for them the visions are getting deeper and head of the party's leadership contest one of those tipped to run the foreign or shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry threatening legal action against a former colleague Caroline Flint who lost her South Yorkshire seat in the general election Caroline Flint claimed Miss Thorne told a colleague she was glad her constituents went to stupid is there is the allegations prompted a furious response from the former Labor front from the current labor front bench I would never even think that little and say it it's a complete loss so I've said to Caroline come on Caroline this isn't true you know with Doris and I'll give you till the end of the day and she refuses to say how it is real hassle of instructing solicitors and that's what we're doing with the process to choose a new leader will start at the beginning of January with Jeremy Corbyn successor in place by the end of March but how does the party pick itself up from the worst election result it's had since 1935 months price is a political commentator and was head of communications for labor under Tony Blair. Lance good afternoon thanks for coming on to b.b.c. Radio Stoke this afternoon how pleased to you that you're no longer head of communications for labor. Communications is a very important job and I'm afraid the Labor Party abjectly failed to communicate its message I mean you didn't even get its message straight I'm afraid before the disastrous car crash election of last Thursday and communication is just one part of the job but you've got to have the right product to sell before you go about the business of trying to sell it well how surprised were you at the outcome of the election I was surprised I was shocked I was upset I thought we were heading for a drop in but I didn't think it would be anything on the scale of what transpired on Thursday night Friday morning and to see so many constituencies across the u.k. That have been voted Labor almost forever giving up on the on the Labor Party I think was was heartbreaking. From a piece you wrote in September 25th a new set of Jeremy Corbyn he was once considered an electable extremist the election result might suggest he still is might and yet he was always an honor to pollute stream Is that didn't change and I'm afraid he's he molded started to mold the Labor Party in his image and during the time that he was leader the Labor Party moved even further to the left the don't forget this is the 4th general election in a row that Labor has lost we move further to the left in each and every one of them and this is the consequence of that process Jeremy Corbin's politics are wrong for this country and wrong for the Labor Party and we have to move on from that which doesn't mean going back through everything from the past I mean it's you know it's true that I work for Tony Blair but I'm not talking about a return to New Labor or Blairism or anything like that the Labor Party has to regroup move together and find a leader who can actually bring all the various wings of the Labor Party into a position a genuinely united position not one that just pretends to be united and all that interesting you bring up the idea of unity Here's what 2 former Stoke on Trent term peace told me in the early hours of Friday morning before they lost their seats this is Ruth Smith and garrets Now this is very much Jeremy call when his results this was a labor manifest day that he wanted it was a back seat position that he wanted and does beg the question if the Labor Party doesn't represent bases like Bly Valley and the South Wales valleys and Stoke on Trent are we still the Labor Party there are there i Series a big questions for the Labor Party towards are all 10 constituencies in the b.b.c. Radio Stoke area Lance are now conservative for the 1st time in history where does Labor go from here what could a new Labor party for want of a better phrase look like well I think both Ruth and Garrett who are terrific and peas are absolutely spot on about that so the the Labor Party has to look like the country that it wants to represent. So it has to be patriotic in a way that I'm afraid Jeremy Corbyn was never Patry article never believed of patronage whatever his part or stations to the contrary it has to have it has to be grounded in common sense not in ideological positions it has to be about policies that really matter to ordinary individuals in their homes whether it's the north south east west southwest of this country Scotland Wales doesn't matter where it is . And that means some very very core principles some of which to be fair were in Labour's manifesto we need to get back to things like Shore start so we give kids across this country wherever they are the best possible start in life so that people have the opportunity to make the best of their of their talents but we also need to demonstrate the fact that we believe in this country we believe in it's all the great things about it and its future and they sound like the kind of you know buzzwords that you would expect a communications guy like me to come up with but actually when when it's genuine people know that it's genuine and I'm afraid Jeremy cauldrons attempt to portray himself as somebody who represented the values of this country simply weren't real so therefore no one believed them Lance really good to speak to thanks for your insight the sandstone former head of communications for labor under Tony Blair and political commentator Lance price with some b.b.c.

And thanks very much Christine she'll be back on the half hour on the earth throughout the program this is news drive here till half past 6 newly elected M.P.'s are gathering and wiseness the start of a week in which the government wants them to vote through Boris Johnson's breaks that deal as the dust begins to settle after last week's election Prime Minister will address his M.P.'s The seething within the last hour the s.n.p. Has held the media regarding to introduce its 12 new M.P.'s So what's going on then to discuss with our Westminster goddess bonnet David Porter who joins me now David day one for many of these new M.P.'s are some of the Tory M.P.'s coming there with their blue scarves Yes Bill it is a bit like the 1st day at school for many of them today a lot of them looking slightly perplexed some of them don't even think thought they were going to be here until Thursday night in the event early on Friday morning so there are a great deal of new faces around Westminster trying to get to grips with the way Westminster operates they most of them have not even tried to find their way around the building yet that is probably too much of an ask on day one but you know that what they are doing they are basically getting their security passes they are not getting their offices yet that takes a few days but getting crucial things like email account so their constituents can get in touch with them and what tends to happen is that when an m.p. Is elected very very quickly they start receiving lots of letters and things like that so they are sort of trying to find their their whereabouts around this place today because they know that now their life is going to change probably more than many of them had ever thought and they will be expected to hit the grown running politically on yes they will do what is happening today a lot of them arriving at Westminster to morrow the House of Commons will meet and will reaffirm that it wants a Lindsay oil who was elected towards the end of the last parliament speaker of the House of Commons then M.P.'s will start. Basically taking the oath in which they are they basically agreed to the rules of the House of Commons that the process because there are so many of them often takes about 2 days Thursday this week we will get the government's legislative program the Queen's speech and on Friday we are expecting that the withdrawal agreement bill the bill that will basically give legal entity to breaks it will be voted on in principle by the House of Commons because Boris Johnson and Conservative M.P.'s have been very keen and keen to be seen to getting on with the whole issue of bricks and Cabinet appointments expected today yet we are expecting a couple today because this is not going to be a 4 reshuffle as often you get when a government comes into being but we know that we need a couple of cabinet vacancies to be filled one will be the job of Culture and Media secretary making Morgan the previous holder of that post decided that she would stand down at the election and that could be a key post going forward the 2nd one is the position of Welsh Secretary at the beginning of the campaign then we are secretary Alan Keynes was forced to resign so we know there are at least 2 jobs that there are various ministerial posts one of which of Scotland Office because the Minister of State Colin Clark did not win last Thursday night so at some point they will have to put in someone to take his place but we are expecting there will be a major air cabinet reshuffle but that probably won't take place to tell the truth about. Next year and the s.n.p. Showing off their new M.P.'s yet within the last half an hour s.n.p. M.P.'s have been gathering outside of the Palace of Westminster they have 12 new M.P.'s taking their total to $47.00 M.P.'s right for the. The leader of the Westminster group down here at Westminster for the s.n.p. Say that their job was to be the conscience of Scotland's again repeating something we will hear a lot of this week from s. And p. Politicians that there should be a 2nd independence referendum and it should be up to the people of Scotland to decide when that will be no service say the conservatives Senior Conservative Scottish m.p. Andrew Berry says they will not be a 2nd independence referendum sanctioned by this conservative government the s.n.p. Had a very good night in Scotland it was not a vote for another independence referendum we've got to move this country forward put it put it put a lid on the constitutional rights of the next 5 years and start focusing on the priority of the British people that's what we're determined to down here in Westminster and my conservative colleagues and I who were lucky enough to be returned we fighting very hard to make sure that Scotland's places fairly within that United Kingdom and we get the benefit of this conservative majority government up north as well so what is the answer when the request comes for me from the Scottish government for the power that indeed I have to affirm and unequivocal no and was liberal up to David the short answer is falling out with each other they are getting to grips with their election defeat the worst performance by the Labor Party since 935 there are an increasing number of Labor M.P.'s who is saying that Jeremy Corbyn should go and go quickly he says that he wants a period of reflection and he wants the leadership process to begin in January there are others quite frankly you're saying that because of the result last week he will probably have to go sooner rather than later so that is one to watch but also it does appear that senior Labor politicians are now openly Fawley out with each other we had an extraordinary situation between the shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry and previously. Labor m.p. Caroline Flynn she'd lost her seat on Thursday and she is alleged to have said that she believed that Emily thought thought that voters in the north would not intelligent enough to understand breaks it. Is always been on the remains side of the Labor Party Caroline Flint because the constituency in Yorkshire which represented has been on the brakes its side now everything will be says she did not say this and she's asked our own Flint to withdraw those comments so far that hasn't happened and now Emily Thornberry is threatening that she would take legal action against Caroline fled it perhaps some up at the moment the divisions within the Labor Party it may not come to legal action but it does show quite graphically how sections of the Labor Party are open warfare with each other at the moment David Porter of Westminster Thank you. Plans to increase health and social care staffing to cope with growing demands have been set up by the Scottish Government the workforce plan includes a commitment to increase the number of district nurses by almost 400 over 200 specialist physiotherapists as well as a new specialist service for stroke patients the pile up into the end of last year and comes after a report by the public spending watchdog that criticized the lack of any long term planning in investment in community services or health correspondent Lisa Somers joins you know new sort of what we see in published today Well that's right as you say this has been a long time coming this workforce plan is part of a broad piece of work looking at staffing and across the n.h.s. And also in social care because when you think about it Health and Social Care integration words were set up in December 25th Drinan there has been quite a lot of criticism that progress has been too slow there's not been enough joined up thinking about how you deal with the changing needs of health care and how you move to this vision of caring for people in the community for longer and there for taking the pressure off hospitals as you see old Scotland has consistently raised this and has pointed to the fact that decisive action is needed or the n.h.s. Is not going to be sustainable so what you're getting today really is a kind of vision for how things will change and what we're forced demands are going to be required to make that happen in the future so what level of staffing does that commit to one of the things that report does is it says that an additional $20000.00 staff are going to be needed to reform services within 5 years across health and social care it points to the fact that predictions sure that the elderly population in Scotland will be up by 25 to 35 percent by 2035 things do you have to change now already in Scotland we do have more n.h.s. Staff pred of population than England does but it says that we also need to think about increasing things like district nurses or 3 engines $75.00 additional district nurses $225.00 specialist physios more community pharmacists the loss of provide training places for. People like clinical psychologists all this is really about trying to support edgy piece to be the center of delivering health care in the community but putting in place advance advanced specialists who can do this and what we did know some of this detail before now we have had some of these announcements made before it's about putting it all together in a way that shows that the government and also local authorities are committed and have a plan to tackle those future challenges and what sort of reaction has there been well it has been broadly welcomed in part because it has been so long coming but there have been a number of organizations that have raised concerns about the lack of detail in this plan the British Medical Association for example points out the fact that it's already been incredibly difficult to fill the number of long term vacancies they have vacancies within the n.h.s. In terms of doctors so they want to see more detail and how on earth they're going to actually fill the posts that have been created despite committing to filling to create a more training places are or filling more postes there are college nurses say that they're pleased with the commitment to numbers but they are worried that even with these extra district nurses there might not actually be enough to change the way that services are delivered one of the things just to point out here is the same they have also and I'm stuck kind of National Stroke service that has to be an investment of 600000 pounds to create a specialist on back to me service in 9 wells and done d. That has been welcomed and because it means additional training and also potentially better support in the community for rehabilitation for stroke patients as well. Lisa Somers our health correspondent thank you. News drive on b.b.c. Radio Scotland the headlines at 19 minutes past 4 newly elected M.P.'s have been arriving at Westminster at the start of a week in which they're expected to be asked to vote on Boris Johnson's brags that bill after years of campaigning hundreds of postmasters have won a key victory against the post office and the controversial accounting software they were forced to use and the clone has rejected an offer to settle a proceeds of crime case against them in for a kid couple who murdered a vulnerable woman in their care last weekend on is bringing your Christmas playlist for every occasion from those festive founds. Feet to the family in the works night as I. Sit. Down to Carol's from the class to Chamber Choir her. Tonight from 6 there are less important for you feeling festive on b.b.c. Sounds. To. Get it on with Brian Bennett on b.b.c. Radio Scotland. Thieves have reportedly stolen $50000000.00 pounds worth of jewelry from Tamara Eccleston's house in London she was on holiday at the time the daughter of the former Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone was said to be shaken and angry after the robbery on Friday night Jon Donnison is in Kensington 50000000 pounds worth of jewelry reportedly stolen and quite a heist this here is known as billionaires row one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the whole country tomorrow Eccleston's house more than 50 rooms now police say that on Friday night they were called out to a burglary just after 11 o'clock and they say that an amount of value jewelry. It's stolen now and they say no arrests have been made at the moment tomorrow at the sun she said a spokesperson for the family has said that they are shaken and angry now they weren't actually there at the time because they had travelled overseas on holiday for the Christmas holidays but clearly a pretty old Aisha's heis now you look at the street here it's got several big embassies on it including the Israeli Embassy so very high security you've got on plates at the bottom of the road and presumably the house itself has pretty high security now the Sun newspaper is reporting that the thieves 3 of them got in through the back of the property and then went to rifle through the house and found the safes with this jury inside but 50000000 pounds I mean that's a huge help to think of a robbery on this scale and here in the world Jon Donnison reporting foes of hedgehogs have how to be rescued because what weather has left them to underweight to hibernate almost a 1000 have been admitted to the Scottish s.p.c. a National rescue center since September have been speaking to Superintendent Sean Connery from the child this year 2019 has been one of the busiest years the whole years. Folks we fight over 2000 dead. And is it just the conditions or does the fact that there are more head chokes to. I think it's basically dying of the weather conditions and October October it was our busiest month 463 comment on one month alone so that it's unheard of at this time of the year but I think came the weather has a lot to do with it because the temperatures are quite mild and the middle August through talked to over there was a lot let a little letters of. Saw when it comes this time of the year there too small and they don't have enough reserves for to go into hibernation so we get them into over centers and was involved in a little fattening them up or getting them a place to hibernate. Well a day or centers we keep them Ethelred under 600 grams we keep them waken him until next year and we just give them a steady. On a daily basis dog food and to be flatten them up so that they're healthy and I can't wait for at least getting next year and what will happen then. And then we'll release them we have a lot of different allocations that can truly cement safe areas you know they into the forests and roots not so that they can live a normal life back in the wild we only feed and them make sure they're clean and give them water we're doing a lot with them so that the wild comes that able to be the least it's a big operation though presumably that's quite costly. It is very costly but the school is public. And we do appeals often on our Facebook page on the social media page and people to need to last so it's really really good to helps tremendously and we're so grateful for it up as costly in terms of money but presumably man and woman power to do you need more volunteers I don't think yes we always look for volunteers I write a life sentence and this time apart from the hate hoax and it's quite quiet but if anybody wishes to volunteer this should check our website and all the details that are on the air but we'd love people to volunteer members of the public who find at this time of the year if they see a hedgehog in the moving at under such mean that the are not hibernating and should have been yes if they had any hedgehogs I wouldn't be at this time of the year that either too small to hype at me and little concerned food or the thin and b.c. It or do you have some problem you know that needs to be seen by if so if you see any hay choke back are small I. Am at this time a year definitely give the Scottish s.p.c.s.

Radio Scotland news well is it weather for hedgehogs to wrap up warm or can they be just for Buster. S. Any pretty chilly out there Bill thanks very much indeed and for some wintry actually we've got a band of rain sleet and snow moving its way northward across parts of Highland Grampian and the Met Office has just issued a yellow weather warning for some snow and ice through parts of those areas as well so if you joining up and down the a 9 north of Perth expect some wintry weather and deede other high road routes in the area as well for most the seedling if you get some wet weather it will be of rain perhaps a bit of a sleety mix at times but rain for most is just through parts of East Highland northwards that we're seeing and think more significant in terms of wintry weather for much of the Central Belt and the south through the course of this evening and overnight it's dry quite clear at times as well and certainly quite cold we're looking at the overnight temperatures around about 02 plus 3 Celsius but in the countryside it will be colder than that so even out with that yellow warning area there is a risk of ice where we've. Damp surfaces and the temps are falling away to tomorrow and we still have low pressure nearby but much lighter winds and actually after a cloudy start with some showers this in improving story tomorrow by afternoon will be some sunshine for many of us quite crisp conditions still quite chilly but you know really probably average temperatures for this time in December were looking at afternoon highs anything up to around 6 Celsius but still a few showers and some cloudy skies to contend with the 1st thing then that takes us nicely to Wednesday will be a cold start to the day on Wednesday some mist and fog around at times and then as we head through the day when strength thing from the south cloud building and rain arrives later as the forecast.

Radio Scotland this is news Dr I'm Bill White for the former deputy Provest a barber Dean has been referred to a national standards watchdog after he was found guilty of sexual assault Alan Donnelly was convicted last Friday but remains a city councillor a reporter David sharks in Aberdeen has been following the story just you know David what's the situation because all know well Bill Allen Donnelly resigned his membership of the Conservative party but as you mentioned is still an Aberdeen City Councillor he's not yet tendered his resignation to the chief executive we've attempted to contact him today to find out if you intends to do so but he wasn't available for comment now a meeting is due to be held today within the ruling conservative and labor ministration here in Aberdeen to decide what action to take no they're in power with a majority of one sort of moving Kunstler Donnelly could mean losing that majority and a potential restructure of committees to reflect the new political landscape speaking to us earlier the conservative group leader Douglas Lumsden said the question of whether he remains a councillor should be answered by Mr Donnelly you know he's no longer a member of my group so I can't I can't instruct him port to port. To do it is a matter far far themselves but I think he needs to give up you know careful consideration as far as I'm concerned he's also using resigned from the party he's no longer a member of our group and therefore no longer as a member of the administration until you know I'll be looking at ways to remove him from all committees that is representing the conservatives and remove him from all external groups with the represents the administration did this come a boat or throat is trial in court Mr Donnelly had denied kissing and touching a man who was working at an event in the city but on Friday he was found guilty of sexual assault sentencing was deferred for reports until next month now today we've learned that he's been referred to the ethical standards commissioner and the Liberal Democrat group on the council are also calling for safeguards to be put in place for staff and members of the public who will work and come into contact with Councillor Donnelly their group leader in you'll believes the former deputy Provost can't continue in his position and want him to resign nature of the conviction a conviction of a sexual assault in that interview tells would only is absolutely unfit to hold public office he should have resigned on Friday when he was convicted he should resign today. He. Should resign soon as possible there installation is untenable and the sooner he goes the better but we've spoken to Aberdeen City Council in the last hour who say no resignation has been received by the chief executive so despite his conviction as of no Mr Donnelly remains the councillor for the Tory and very Hill ward in Aberdeen chunks in Aberdeen thanks very much. Fresh talks are being held over the future of the storm and to assembly in Northern Ireland following the general election it's almost 3 years since parachuting collapsed at the leaders of the 5 main parties are meeting with the Northern Ireland secretary in a bid to restore devolution to discuss the latest stocks journalist. Dennis money and Dennis has the political landscape changed because or since the general election. Yes and probably permanently as well. It would be wrong to draw too many empirical conclusions from the recent general election results in Northern Ireland because there were so many local factors but I think you can draw a conclusion that the Unionist majority is gone forever in terms of representation that however doesn't mean there is going to be a majority for United Ireland because a lot of the support mostly from the Democratic Unionist Party the main Unionist Party these days and some from Sion Fein astonishingly has gone to the Alliance Party which was always seen by the nationalist and Unionist parties as a waste of votes and a middle class laughingstock Well they've really built up. A surge it's not momentum yet but it's getting close to that so I think the landscape looks very different to what it did partly partly because of Bracks it but also partly because of the lack of devolution since 2017 Yeah and we're told the party workers going around the doors from both sides of the divide we're hearing from voters you know it's time to get Stormont back on track Yes I people are sick of it I think that and another thing that I rather took Sion Fein by surprise was when you vote for Sion Fein you know you're voting for an abstention ist m.p. And I think they started to get some grief this times this time in the doorsteps because people into Ronan for a man or a little voted for Sinn Fein in their droves they're not watching the Irish parliament live on t.v. They're watching the House of Commons and for 2 years now they watch nothing but a succession of Democratic Unionists talking about their future with the exception of the recently retired and dependent m.p. But. There's a real political imperative to get storm and back which there hasn't been for a long time one is Shin Fein had a terrible election in the Republic of Ireland in the spring and their local elections because they don't look like a party of government when they're not in government in Northern Ireland and Sion Fein cares deeply about her doesn't the rest of the island and for the d.p. The t.v. And finally woken up to the fact that without the assembly the union is very fragile when there is devolution the union is much more secure and they also had a deeply unpleasant experience for them of this legislation on abortion and equal marriage coming through. And then they also got a tremendous amount of earache on the doorsteps about the crisis and it really is a crisis in Northern Ireland and the National Health Service So there's lots of imperatives to get back to work which they have not been for a while and what about the choreography of any potential restarting of the assembly you know we've we've heard a non-circular Julian Smith today saying that he was hopeful that something could be done this going to be talks later this week or the deadlines for the it was a potential time to there's a deadline in the middle of January that if evolution isn't restored by then they're there legally have to be an election but central government could very easily legislate for that not to happen if the talks are going well the parties don't want another election for a whole lot of reasons. The do you pay did very badly in the last assembly elections and both the deviation Fane didn't do terribly well in the recent general election. The smaller parties are right of money after $3.00 elections in Northern Ireland in one year already. So I'm not sure you're going to have agreement by the middle of January but I think you will have agreement fairly quickly for this reason Julian Smith is going to stay as the secretary of state for a. More than Ireland and he is not just a heavy hitter but because he was a chief whip he is an expert at arm twisting and law growling at things that are very important in a negotiation and also for the 1st time since the general election of 2017 he's going in as a neutral honest broker he's not going in Afraid to annoy the d u p because the arithmetic at Westminster is changed so radically so why do you have a perfect storm about Northern Ireland and evolution for a couple of years I think that the weather forecast as much brighter for getting delusion back on who will give way or presumably both sides have to give way to some extent but there are there have been key stumbling blocks on the main stumbling stumbling block is over an Irish language legislation which I think is easy enough to resolve because the d.p. Could easily say well look we've 2 model models to look at and Britain and Wales and Scotland about indigenous languages they could tie it to what they call Ulster Scots although I must say to my ear Ulster scoff sons like my granny from Ballymena used to tell. But here's the thing Sinn Fein had for really big issues going in to evolution 10 years plus ago in 2007 and the d.d.p. Stymied on all 4 of them and the Irish language is the only one that's left which means that the d.p. Really has nothing to trade in exchange. There would be the only ones compromising but there was deep opposition and Unionist grassroots to there being an Irish language act simply because it was an assertion Fein policy and I think given the changed circumstances they're going to decide well look an Irish language or a culture Act which is what it would probably be called in the end if you're going to have a culture act better that in the end of the. The union because so many people are forecasting the end of the Union and even after all I've said I think the union both in Scotland and Northern Ireland is at its most fragile in our 20100 years tennis money will leave it without Thanks very much. News drive on b.b.c. Radio Scotland course to 5 the new star of headlines newly elected M.P.'s have gathered in west most of us Polish Johnson prepares to bring his breaks that deal back to the Commons sort of Emily Thornberry is threatening legal action against a former colleague a Scot real has lost its new winter timetable promising more trains and more seats on the busiest routes.

Radio Scotland travel this Christmas the I'll bring you the story of one of the most successful Scottish albums of all time when the man who came along to go so we come on in the press. Record which received a lukewarm response to one afternoon a glass complete changed everything for Travis it's like a magic song with special superpowers Heaven is a. Joint Paul English for Travis the man who at 20 is that thing the other the only way we're a proper by no recorded in Abbey Road should you choose. Christmas the from to hear on b.b.c. Radio Scotland protesters that are on the streets of several Indian cities demonstrating about a new law on illegal migrants which some critics see as anti muslim teargassed has been used roads have been blocked and 6 people have died demonstrations are no in their 5th day earlier I spoke to the b.b.c. East Asia correspondent and bought a sun I thought Arjun thousands of students have held a protest over the weekend here in the capital of Delhi protesting against his controversial citizenship law many of them feel that this law is discriminatory to works of Muslims because the law fast tracks citizenship to people who fled will flee from neighboring Muslim countries like Afghanistan Pakistan and Bangladesh due to religious persecution Now the controversial part of that law is Muslims have been excluded that's why many students say that it goes against the fundamental values of secular traditions of India and that's why they have been protesting on the other hand bought people in northeastern India which is like close to Bangor base and Myanmar and they have a different problem for this a lot because they think by giving citizenship to people who came from other countries that good on the demography of that region because many of them are indigenous communities tribes they don't want outsiders to come and settle because they fear that their culture and identity will be affected and they will take over the land and jobs at that or by the same law that are 2 different kinds of protests going across India and what's the response of the authorities been of the being taken by surprise. Yes indeed they have been taken by surprise by the scale of this book is awarded started in the northeast of India for the last few days and then people just moved to Delhi the capital city and then people saw you know the while and happened during the protests which police say a one of the small group of protesters that involved but many students they accused the police of brutality and the force that way into the university campus and attacked many students but police deny these accusations and they were taking necessary action to bring the situation under control but want this done what this has done is this is parked out spontaneous protests in other parts of the country like in other cities like Bangalore Hyderabad so that has taken the government by Dili by surprise they didn't expect so many students showing solidarity with the students in Delhi so that is why the Indian prime minister Narendra Modi has appealed for calm and he said the while and it was very unfortunate and distressing at the same time now the opposition parties launched a scathing attack on the government for what they describe as declaring a war on its own people is that only turns the government will reverse strike on the slow. It is very tricky situation for the government because they have refused to back down so far but there are increasing protests and one of the ministers hinted that they're willing to tweak the law if necessary but it's not very clear because whether this will switch the feelings of people in the northeast of India because there are 2 different groups of people in a protesting against this particular law whether you can satisfy every group because people in the north east of India which is bordering bank but they say they do not want any make friends and the government initiated a program called National Register of citizens and which more than $2000000.00 people that will meet it from that list which means they have to prove that they were Indian citizens they had enough papers to prove they were Indian and many of them came from Bangladesh so there is a lot of issues here for the government to address and at the moment government doesn't want to show that it is a backing down but if the protest spread a bit continues for a few more days then it will pose a big challenge to the government about a son. In Delhi and what is a fresh turkey not a fresh turkey a once a month old you might think but many of the birds being bought in the run up to Christmas will be just start of him being kept in deep chill we're hoses minus 2 Celsius and gas flushed to remove. Well you Pennington is emeritus professor of bye to the already at the University of Aberdeen Hello rather what do you make of these techniques to sell us fresh turkeys when they're a month old well yes I mean it all depends on what you mean by fresh if you think it's going to be still warm you know after after it's been killed and what kind of stuff it isn't. It's really a trading standards issue you know what does the public expect when they buy fresh there are they obviously expect Number one they expect the bird to be soured the terms of taste and all we also expect the bird to be served in terms of freedom from microbes you know you're going to get food poisoning and all that goes stuff that. You know those those are really take care of by these cooling process in fact the birds are probably slightly safer than the birds that are just come straight from the farm but on the other hand if the public thinks they're getting fresh newly sort of slaughtered turkeys and so on well then there was a mistake and so it's pretty close to what's on the label the suppliers themselves say this is the only way you can meet this sudden surge in demand at the festive period I suppose of a point the other way would be to to fleece all the turkeys with a lot of fright and you know that I think the public prefers the fresh in a vertical was compared to the frozen actually the frozen turkeys are slightly safer I would not want to slightly safer from the point of view of the common as food policy but Kempler back to which is all the surface of the of the bird that's not for 6 by my freezing of the thawing you know it's down by 90 percent that kind of thing you know this there's been talk over the years of doing that as a carrot of safety measure because unfortunately we haven't been able to get those come contamination levels right down to it you know even in remotely near 0 you know that they're still in the in the I well I made the talk about the present clearly you know if you cut the bird properly and you handle it properly there's no risk to the bugs they're all killed by that because they're also not by the freezing so you know if you had to choose between fresh or freshly cut was present from the safety point if you choose the frozen but of course that lends you in this in the sort of trouble of inadequately thawed talkies and adequately cooked Tuckey's it just missed and yes that's really a taste issue the you know the high and basically well there is obviously a slight safety issue because Sete Afridi doesn't kill all the bugs so you really have to be very careful and follow the instructions that the absolute that you must do is read the instructions on the label is it where and how long you have to to have thought a bird before and how long you have to cook it so that it's going to. Right through it the bugs are on the outside of the meat and I'm looking at it from a sort of microbiological point of view the not in the actual meat itself but on the other hand if you cook a bird to simply degrees for 2 minutes the bugs are dead because if it's frozen and it's thawing slowly Well it might be quite difficult to get close to a producer basically follow the instructions and you'll be you'll be fine under bird will taste fired as well Professor Hugh Pennington Wise words as ever thanks very much. The fans of famous comics from done deal or being asked to share their memories of their favorite characters for the new book being put together by the University of Dun d.c. Christopher money the world's 1st professor of comic studies spoke to us earlier well I've been working on comics for searching and teaching comics for for many years now you know I don't do any and also somebody who lives and works and doesn't he always been fascinated by by Dundee's comics history and over the various bits and pieces of research I've done over the last couple years some interesting will take bits of information about Doesn't he kept coming out either for speaking to people or doing a lot of research are well bits of the story there isn't usually tall debate don't use comics history so become Yeah because it was the story the so often told us about d.c. Thomson is now a top and the bees are and so forth and get characters that Desperate Dan but you're finding that there was a comic history long before D.C.'s Yeah very much so as you say everybody knows you know and everybody knows the great products of coming out of of don't he's great comics publishing empire but the more I've done research there's this one arresting stories that come out it's not like certain aspects of d.c. Thompson's history perhaps but also agree rich tradition of comics production in the same. Material that d.c. Thomson's produced I've been very interested to find. About some of the very early comic strips that were being published in Dun d. Some of them came out of Illustrated magazine like. Yeah cool the wast and they were being published in 88 Teasley 881983 the turn of the century and there was periodicals often hard comic strips in them so I'm I'm tracing the history of the and what is a done deal then that gave birth to comics Well there's a couple of things there my colleague my future. Is it museum Services University has done d. Just a couple years ago rubric about art history done d. Done we had a very very rich history in the mid 19th century and that was largely because the g. Industry lots of money in Dundee people wanting to want to. Represent their new friend wealth by buying and purchasing art so there's a vibrant are seen and done the official art scene in Dundee That was Friday evening in the 19th century which is kind of been forgotten about under does that tell you in with sort of postcards seaside postcards and that sort of thing oh very much so and this is key John Lange which was one of the publishers here and done deed of his journaling d.c. Thomson's those called companies later marriage to an earlier 20th century but they were great rivals John laying hired Martin under cent who later became very famous as cynicus he would he became famous for satirical postcards made a fortune out of producing producing this yet he was the 1st illustrator hired by a newspaper in the u.k. The origins of the actually really fascinating because John Lang really you know the it with the technology to pick images with Fein newspapers lots of illustrated magazines newspapers tended to be primarily text but was a to real bridge disaster that kind of brought. This revolution where that happened it was international news all rigged or old and juggling phones that were never any visual material in a newspaper such as you know a graph or a photograph or anything like the papers instantly sold out so this convinced them to very very heavily in the technology to embed visual material within its newspapers and with the fact that there were so many visual artists drawn to Dundee the 19th century and early 20th century and there are big publishing house John Lang later to become very pretty sometimes it's hard to stick knowledge in an accident so I believe it brought about a moment we're done he was really poised to take advantage of this and that continued well into the 20th century Professor Christopher money from the University of done d.

Should he have paid for flexion and exactly how long is shut that bay and what's it for you know he's the man sitting on your right shoulder to lend interest a 2nd a day was when you might I think I think Kate's right get off to a junior to Radio 5 Live. Make a cup it's a relax so we need to do 10 days to Christmas as a Christmas $41.00 shopping days to breakfast so we'll be watching what Boris Johnson does in the next few days we go in speech on Thursday will be able to focus on what he's going to do to try and cement his foretold in the in the labor heartlands of North would be very very interesting but. As Kate rightly says the focus is now switched massively on her labor because Labor needs to rebuild it's going be a long haul back to the top but there's a lot of work to do Q limitless community led Good morning good to see you didn't sit down hard to me Well you know obviously it was a devastating result is no doubt about that but David's right about one thing I don't often agree with them unless it's about Liverpool Football Club but it is going to be a long cold back and we do now have to kind of reflect on things using new leader and then move forward to why only your thoughts on all of these are commiserations and we'll just losing or losing dreadfully which of course Labor liberty must be a show you must have expected on polling night before that exit poll can flashing up on the screen you must be expected to be doing so much better yes I mean Labor's challenge of course was to break through Bracks Boris Johnson called the election on Bracks the media especially the right wing wing media wanted it to be about Bracks it Labor's challenge was to break through there and to talk about other issues and obviously we failed and we failed badly but you say it was all about break do you really think that's going to wash Len I mean this journey called in in in the Observer newspaper today saying the label won the argument you lost labor lost everything especially the argument and especially with working class a bitch will Labor voters people Labor policy exists to serve the only constituencies My biggest fear when fortunately came home to roost on Thursday night and not is that in our heartlands in the north and in Midlands in other places Labor fails to understand people's strength of feeling about breakfasts we voted for Bracks if we want Bracks is labor unfortunately was seen as a remain policy and we've seen. You seem you know you know and I know you know because I just know you know that it was about more than that and everything I heard from anyone who spends about what during this election in the labor side we're talking about divorce maybe in some cases smashed in their face but in others hearing that Jeremy Corbett he's not going to be my prime minister are people saying on labor I will not have that man and not just that when it came to the policies they were saying look it's not real it's just not real we don't think you're going to do it you lost every argument on every count absolutely disagree with that all of Labor's policy towards me that's what people were saying to me all the world all of Labor's policies were extremely popular the problem is that yes when they were put together there was a question of credulity could labor really deliver all of this and as regards Jeremy yet there's no doubt that it became an issue on the doorstep because of course for the last 4 years every single day has been attacked on Miss flee in a way that no politicians have by the media but Anita by the media of course by the Meteor I mean by some of the media you know the sun the Daily Mail and us Up Close which suggests that people can't think for themselves you go this is not a quite good Mauresmo if you're working on the bill on that John that's nonsense it's not about thinking for yourself it's about when every single day every single day there is vicious personal attacks and constant attacks on an individual eventually that seeks into the psyche of people I mean this is patronize it's people know it as if there's nothing that was going to is not seen patronize him 2 years ago Joel just over 2 years ago Jeremy Coburn took us within touching distance of power what is affectively happened is breakfast anybody who wants to look closely in an independent or not. Way will say that Labor Labor seats all the seats we lost I think with the exception of. 2 seats we're all leave seats because people you've done in the other city are you know up and down the clock as regards folks if you want to talk about Jeremy Coburn go and examine how many votes Cherubim coping go compared to at Miliband Gordon Brown one even Tony Blair literally right there maybe not of great value for that reason that I was an easy answer just referred to short time the other day and 1st person especially some of the dumb things you said already for Germany could not very labor after their money was a local m.p. But not on your life to one and while I clearly happened it's no use of running away from the clear journalist except just because he was a liability to labor What was the liability was Bracks the results a little bit was walking the journey it's the same thing they all they all linked together that leadership and Bracks it's all linked together and they both don't fully in our heartlands and then all metals it was something well fortunately I had been predicting inside the party that we're to take a close pull you reckon you reckon women German capital which will be a few weeks when we know of your bit of a wrangle to be had about precisely when but when he's Kerry if exaction itself will lift Labor's fortunes I think what will happen is there will be a new leader a fresh just one of the germy will be a good thing for labor it's not about a good thing for labor Jeremy Kovan has changed British politics forever he will go down in history as the man along with your Mark Donald who's changed British policy is to have a we will have a Labor party consistently now offering on all 10 assists at the daya austerity that the Tories have been paddling for years so the point is we will have a new leader we will have to regroup my message to the Labor Party members yes you'll be devastated this morning but remember why you joined the Labor Party. It is because we stand for fairness decency in justice. Is still needed right a question is was it's needed more than ever yes or no it's not this one put the question for you the let's call it a covert agent is not just a covert agenda is a socialist agenda that's been what it has been for a very long time before you marched nationalisation for example that must stay at 7 nights a revisit and hear that it's a radical alternate such to last to another John fer 1000000 of our kids go to school every morning hungry what's the prime minister and the Tories going to do about the 13000000 live below below the poverty line all manufacturing in the street desperately needs investments or public services housing the crisis we're stepping over people on our streets let's see what the prime ministers about that what Jeremy Coburn and John McDonald It was off an old senator and lay back in my opinion will continue to offer Daryl Synods of how many times did we hear private Soko been on the doorsteps they're all the same you can't distinguish between the parties they're all in it for themselves they're all the same you want hair then anymore because British politics has changed young people are engaging mention homelessness you mention schools and funding hospitals of the fun in your unfortunate people disagree with those things that exacerbate how you deal with of course it is about making certain that the rich to see a rich pay their taxes the corporate elites pay their taxes the same as ordinary working people people did it simple making certain that the wealth that we created on nations that where can people get a fair share of the rather than it being sucked away into the Cayman Islands and that's the big picture Ali wouldn't do it clearly enough people your point of view but the argument you could fund your massive raft of policies you describe them as a kind of incontinence a Martian policies from them by hitting a few billionaires over them on a budget so. Confederations it was one of the little yes it's not a few 1000000000 and and the independence Escobar G.'s tell us that the Treasury loses $40000000000.00 pounds a year through tax avoidance the only labor that ever to look about doing so also learned nothing so you think it's fair to say that my reading you correctly the really should label when Germany has gone you should stick to the hyperbole under under Jimmy cauldron of nationalizing the uterus you should stick to that but also stick to the present spending and tax policies that were in that great book of the manifest they stick to that says sadly stick to making certain that the corporate elites and the super rich pay their fair share of taxes remember corporation tax that Labor were offering would have raised $23000000000.00 pounds a year so now it's pretty straight not one on the tax I'm going with chance they would answer John John $23000000000.00 pounds a year and it would have been the same corporation tax levels that these these companies pay in the rest of Europe so yes $1.00 of the of course we made mistakes I said that in my article and the we had too many policies we should have Follow me a policy mistake we should have focused No no I'm not going to pick a specific you can't say that I can't means I join but given beyond zone I can say what I want to reality is that the reality is that we should have priority as priorities and constantly sits on specific issues and they're the type of things now we're going to have to reflect what might you be concentrating on that you'll be better off not your concentration we we will now reflect on those issues and starts to listen to what people are saying to us because sadly in our heart once and we shouldn't take anything for granted we can't take for granted that people are going to come back to Labor we did long enough in Scotland and look where that is we have to make so we listen and we make certain that we reflect and then continue to pull forward policies that ordinary Where can people. Needs to change their lives I'm sure from here you say you need to change anything apart from the leader who's off anyway I'm saying that we need to reflect but the policies of the socialist old Senate of a radical old Senate the are all popular we need some makes we can sing you're looking at me strangely if I have to say very popular sort of policy what a result if I have to say this a 1000 times I will to Breck's it was the reason for this defeat and I've been suggesting she that the evidence is absolutely contrary evidence is staring you in the face John every single seat that Labor Lost was a leave seat you must be spoken we're going real ground here in the space of 10 minutes but you respect people that it was that they would have been telling you that it was about more than bricks that they would be selling you the journey called members yes and yet you say there was a was just about Brother I'm saying the pope both of them are linked the reality is that when there is an issue like breakfast which Labor unfortunately didn't get its policy and its ideas the roots of people it's linked with the with the leadership so yes of course that was an issue on the doorstep and I'm not denying that well reflecting on where we are you'd be better off with a new leader like it or not you will be better off you say well we will be having Can you lead to John we will be having the lead but John Mark Donaldson and Jeremy Kovan should be proud of the fact that 4 years ago they changed British politics and it will never go back we'll always have a radical alternative in mind so many will be a suitable leader to carry on keeping the socialist torch flying let's just pick a couple names at random kissed Omma How different is your Leslie Well I think to be honest with you there are a number. You'd be happy with there are a number of good candidates and I think we'll wait to see who's putting their name forward I don't know of events or hear of putting their names forward. Little bit of a head I guess and I guess I made I use commas for example I think there's I think there's lots of names you could talk you'd rather bang your head against the red move or have their lines not true that pokes very very good politicians a lot there's lots of other names specky long Bailey hunch a little rain you know there's a whole host of individuals who will be considered Phillida if they want so you're sort of carrying the tradition you've been the skull I've only known I believe that the values of what Labor stands for yeah all the ones that we should continue with they're the ones that have made us the largest political party in Europe they're the ones that have attracted young people the future of our nation as young people they flocked to labor she was a socialist a pureblood social I want to radical all sensitive to the misery that has been caused for 10 years by a Tory government and I want to see what Boris Johnson now there is the great hair all of the working class to listen to what is he going to do about all of the ills that he's been part of for the last 10 years is brilliant trade and. Ok Fred well you can and said the practical I say am in part came about because if because it's what the members wanted and you had their process set and conference by the members passed nations that when suggesting a 2nd referendum public 5 is a good idea so Labor's all about listening to the members how do you square that how do you square with them what the members one on back say with what devices that was Jeremy Covance incredible dial m. 158 Labor M.P.'s who come from leave seats 100 Labor M.P.'s who come from remain seats the vast majority of Labor Party members who believe in remain and the vast majority of our working class folks who voted leave that was the terrible dilemma that Jeremy how to deal with and unfortunately the voice in the power of the remain vote the 2nd voters and it can't be dismissed as a 1000000 people on the streets etc was powerful enough to move fully back into the position that they were in remember just over 2 years ago we came within touching distance of power on the platform that we would respect the 2016 referendum and we would take the u.k. Out of the European Union now unfortunately we didn't bells on all humans and there were those of us who were saying yes we have to keep the party together we have to respond to our Labor Party members but you need to understand the consequences of this in all leave seats we are in serious trouble unless we can break through the argument that's Bracks it and she's somebody some hurt labor at the symbolism and the perception that Labor was tolerating or harboring and she and she shall March and that was not to put it mildly that was not handled well by the Labor leadership by Jeremy Coburn and those around him I don't agree with that I mean we really. Would you describe as a problem or no no it's clearly a problem the bar I don't agree with you saying that it wasn't handled well by Jeremy coop and Jeremy Kovan initially asked Shami Chakrabarti someone who is highly respected to produce a report which he did unfortunately the the general secretary of the Labor Party at the time didn't implement that report we have to wait for Jenny Formby to be put into place there's all kinds of things that are Jewish there is rich as you were previously Labor supporters turn their backs you know they're all in an enormous number and that's and that's deeply regrettable and we have to win their trust back because let me say this the idea that the Labor Party is institutionally anti sematic is absolutely not true but we do have to she disagrees with that and I disagree with the Chief Rabbi So there we go we have to kick Alex every Semite that there is in the Labor Party are force against it all my life to blame Jeremy Coburn for that was just deeply deeply unfair this man has fought against anti semitism all these like but yes it was an issue and it played into the media remnants that Jeremy wasn't a strong leader which undoubtedly got through into some people's minds of everything yeah I agree with so a lot of what you say about the game it's just twice today. It's quiet and usual and what you say it was an issue there was no clear message and people were confused and people want to Bracks that voted for it 3 times now in elections and I think that's that was a big problem and also the leadership yes I'm that was partly connected with Bracks it people didn't like Jeremy Corbyn they had too much baggage they felt but so that was a toxic mix to the you're right but I think there's a 3rd ingredients and that was the the heavy left wing policies you know these have been a Jew rejecting over a generation several times 983 Michael forth the longest sewage. Side note in history Neil Kinnock tried slightly softer left but still left wing policies twice and Ed Miliband is recently is 2015 and they've been rejected what makes you think moving further to the left will attract more voters when it clearly doesn't Well David you know you don't surprise me that the song disagrees with a radical old senate other fellow likely Lotusphere So what we what we have by saying that the policies that Labor forward. Nor acceptable what your arguing for is the status quo I've already sent 4000000 of our young kids going to school hungry every day you proud of that because I suspect soon readers on proud of it a teacher's happened to back the. Contributions to buy pencils and pants this is this is 21st century Britain the 5th richest nation in the world which has been appallingly handled by a Tory government to tend to austerity that is had people Labor had support forward and all sense of it almost took us to power in 2017 we lost this one because of Bracks and we'll have to live in the lessons and 5 years from now we'll have to build on the popularity listening to all parts of our party with the fantastic membership We've got my message to them is stay with Labor the war of values that we stand for a desperately needed now more than ever finally you know where they are just on that last point just for the sake of clarity of the images are reasonably clear it should be just for the sake of clarity for pretty for the sake of argument your pitch in this election was heavily heavily defeated the elections are won it is set from the sensor ground of politics not from the the left your answer to that well the You'd have to tell me where the sensor grounds and there was a laugh was all of Labor's policy taken in isolation are very popular we lost this election because of Breck's us and we are. Didn't understand because generally we didn't understand and realize the impact it would have within our heartlands we've got to start listening a lot better than we did the McCaskey good to you thanks for coming along to say hi to Allie McGovern I was McGovern labor m.p. For Will south the chair of progress which which meant I think it was considered something of a Blairite organization that if it quite that way the morning Ali. Definitely. As much. As Blair or anything else your reactions were let me say. Well. I think for all of us it's devastating. I hear what Len says about Praxair but the truth is we lost everywhere you know we we lost support everywhere and there's no doubt that there's no doubt that our Bracks it position took a long time to come to it looked like people weren't really sure what we believed and what we really felt we weren't clear about the wider offer. Well I think that was I think 3 problems in the election I think that the timing handed bars Johnson a massive opportunity and we never should have done that I think organizationally we weren't good enough I think there were lots of problems with the way that we operated the election which were wrong and we need to learn from but I'm not going to watch a little even the recent past Ali should Jeremy Coburn go now. Well Jeremy said he's going to go you know I don't think I need to add further to what everybody else has said about we need to change but the thing is just my final point is on the manifesto I think it was Len He said you know in the aftermath of the election result that we had this incoherent massive policies we had massive promises and I think we underestimated how high the bar of credibility is for us and we needed really we needed to spend to you know make manifest for us all this labor pitch as a as a failure would examined in. I think that the way that it was put together was definitely a failure you know this is not just the methodology of putting it together you saw the offer of the plan the policies were a loser. I there there are there are policies in there that I've fought for you know the need to and food banks and how you do that is something that I campaigned massively all everybody else thoughtful but also willing willing the means not just wanting the outcome but winning the means but when you have when you want to make a big argument for big radical change need to spend time and effort bringing the public with you and some of the things you know the waspy commitment which loads of us have campaigned on for such a big spending commitment to be dropped in at the last minute with no way enough information about how we would deliver that I think that was a massive list only this sorry this what have you learned since the days of charity Blair. What I learned since the days of table as you changed my mind I was aged I was tenacious Blair and Brown Well John I was I was a teenager when Tony Blair was elected so I really hope I have learnt quite a lot of stood for election for for 4 years of your Blairite Brown on whether or not you were there the immediate vicinity since the era of Labor politics what do you think has been next it's been necessary to change and rethink Well I think the politics is far too concentrated in one particular place in Westminster and Whitehall I think that we know that in a lot of towns particularly those places that used to be at the heart of manufacturing I think that the voices of those people were ignored for far too long I think Labor did great things in government and it was huge amounts of regeneration as voices saying that it. That they'd like a High Street that isn't in a state of dereliction place that people would like to feel a sense of pride about the work they do and not be left on the scrapheap working in a warehouse where you're treated like a robot I think people want proper careers and they want to feel a sense of self-respect and pride about what they do and you know when you've got a politics that's almost entirely run from Westminster and white hole then you're going to miss those there's the what is leader. Did I know I did I want to hear what people got to say to me for me the test is about who can change the Labor Party and crucially who can win because I am sick of losing. The consequences of losing this election on mass it's about more the personalities that it's about that it's about the the tradition of the future of labor in the vision of the person who's chosen we know some of them likely run a certain run it's just almost going to be that we know that this discussion of Rebecca long but I'm not sure that's she is actually going to be that this precise moment and under the reign of like was a specially made friends of the deputy leadership Mobley's all names that are being discussed Yvette Cooper is being discussed Lisa ninety's being discussed just Phillips is being discussed which of those names on appeal to you more perhaps than the other almost just you cast your vote now just to help us with your thinking. So for me it's about the future it's about who can take on the challenges I just mentioned also in a world where we have to face devastating climate change will need radical change for our economy you've mentioned a bunch of really really good politicians here I think if they want to make the case here Yeah well let me let me just say some things I think I would ask myself why wouldn't the Stans the reasons why we lost and I think you know some of the questions about where politics is based in this country makes me think that we need somebody who understands parts of the country not the kind of london area I think that moves out here and. I think that it's not ruling out anybody but saying that they've got to understand them or their you see them and you can understand and still be in north west London or. Yeah I think so you can understand and still be from London you know just like you can understand London and not be from that but I think people are really hurting and what I want to see is empathy and listening from all of my colleagues and especially those who are actually more than just the Rebbe Peter Mandelson gave you your party the red rose just to just to swap it for a red eye for something you know I know we can't just have a new Labor party app and fix it that unfortunately that won't work I think we need a good pair of listening and trying to understand to you know loads of people in the Labor Party spent a lot of time listening to the voters and hearing what I had to say over the past weeks I think it's time we reflect on that and work out what to get rid of me when I was in the government over to see listen be happy about the state of your your beloved Liverpool Football Club I'm surrounded by Reds fans this morning in the studio and on the last minute or yeah you feel very lucky too which is a much more coming up politics it's 933 on digital b.b.c. Silence Aspasia Hello my name is babies the Radio 5 Live. After Jeremy Corbett apologized for his role but defended the manifesto saying it was very popular. Will put forward his new programme for government in the Queen's speech on Thursday at length laid a bill of increasing spending on the n.h.s. In England by nearly 34000000000 pines for the next 5 years a British man's been killed in a sum shot and injured in the tempted robbery in Argentina police are trying to work out whether they were victims of a random attack or they were followed from the airport and he went to rail timetables kinda forced today major changes include cutting journey times increasing services rates with the support on his but he will offer mantissa city manager Pep Guardiola says it was always going to be tough to match the softer winning the Premier League in the last 2 seasons City won a combined 198 points to secure a back to back titles they currently trail lead as Liverpool by 17 points there and they face all snow later today when we arrive here the standard is 8590 points to win that you have to reach almost 100 points or in about 11 years nobody back to back and we did it that way when the people say we are not good I cannot forget with distant has done it's almost impossible in the level to periods 345 years is so difficult and that's why we are striving little bit well you can listen to all snow v mantissa city from falsity in 5 live Sport before that will bring you evidence trip to month just United's them once again being cast like a charge of evidence having won his 1st match in charge against Chelsea last weekend really stated. We're confident because we're good off the back you been Chelsea minute of my great run I've only lost one game oh she's no home be I think of only one game and 11 game in the last 20 odd years so it's going be very difficult for us but. We're going to be up for the match will also see United reach a special milestone and mark the full thousands consecutive game in which the schools will contain an academy player one of those is Marcus Rushford the way that the economy is so there's no shock to me. At all because they mold her into a man united person and a Man United player but the process begins before you can even remember how this plays up innocence 5 and 6 years old I for me and that moment I was just having fun until I was like 12 just enjoying myself and you don't realize how good you can be or the potential I have now to cricket in New Zealand in 93 so far on day 4 of the 1st Test against Australia it chasing $468.00 to win unique in the sense that on sports like right now Tiger Woods says he was reduced to tears off to becoming only the 2nd playing captain to lead the u.s.

That with hot showers with snow on the hills across northern parts of the country ice warnings remain in force. Parts of the North for the next couple of. Days sunshine and showers the most frequent across western areas with further sleet also snow falling on the hills particularly across the north. The East with some places together another. 6 Degrees is called in Northern Ireland 610 degrees. 4055 possible as we head through the afternoon and northwest Scotland it's going to be. A touch of frost across areas. Across the northwest the country. The u.k. Otherwise may be dry with some sunshine and with lighter winds but again feeding on the. Weather on stopped at. Sounds music radio podcast. Christmas doing Christmas. This music makes me. Something for everyone to. Listen to around Christmas. A little b.b.c. Sounds this Christmas. And this is. Still with me from the from the Guardian Now let's get straight to sue Graham Brady who's the conservative m.p. For West and chair of the committee says the that the chair of Tuireann piece. And I'm going to me if I can I I was asking were you surprised by that result. Everybody was surprised by the result I thought we were going to win we won with bigger majority than I thought it was like they won in some places that we haven't won for a very very long time so they're surprised and excited yeah because now you've got you know boys don't snap safe when you see 4 for 5 years you know that assuming he's going to go that distance Monken at this stage that he that he would begin she's still on the agenda and they're not going to be easy Graeme they always thought of the one that we probably finished talking to last time we spoke on the show breaks it's a little talking to be done in a nutshell Graeme if we don't take longer to get the the deal the all important deal with the European Union then obviously you hope you will and others might hope it will would be Ok just taking a bit longer to get it right. Well I think one of the things which we see you know over the last couple of years is the negotiations or the years of constantly being undermined whether people like Paul of Ontarians hope it's a media seeking to suggest things simply calm down not looking at what the optimistic positive outcome of this is a good win on both sides Graeme is the winner is that again precisely I think the good will is the outline of the future arrangements is there in the political declaration that. Tariff requests the free trading environment obviously we want that to be as broad as possible including services in the best possible trading arrangement services Well yeah but with goodwill on both sides I believe that it can be done in 11 months and I know in Australia there are a few years ago that free trade agreements with a fight with s 3 biggest trading partners Japan Korea and China I think all within 11 months needed on a scale way you need of course aim for a Need It was a clever one we didn't know didn't know these things. And who knows maybe it could conceivably happen inside the in my point was it would it be the end of the world if you had to extend to get it done for the sake of the prize would be the end of the well well I want to talk up the possibility of things not happening in the next month I want to talk about the prophecy of it being done and done the surprisingly quickly and surprisingly good outcome. Fundamentally believes that this is possible in the interests of a so I think we've seen the frustration on the side at the way that recently is present publications of British the British Parliament surveyed incapable of pointing in one direction and being positive about the future now we are in a position to do that we've had that welcome from the e.u. Side already I think they've got an appetite for us to get on with it but if you want to move it actually in the end will be possible we will be going to the ground one thing by Johnson is saying now in the wake of that result so say much of the north in the middle and former Labor surgery turn blue these blue coat pocket of conservatives are that with the hopes and expectations and promises what do you think Bush wants and can and should and will do for the north in the Midlands to keep those new blue Tories happy what can the government actually do well I think a huge amount of this was already in train in terms of some of say. Policies are already in place the increase in police officer numbers they very big funding increase for the n.h.s. The increases in school funding as well so those are all positive things but also speaking from the northwest in the way my constituency is we have being very clear in our commitment to an old impasse rial to the continuing infrastructure infrastructure improvements that are essential to get the economy of the north so I mean I'm really looking for specific a much better Brylin between east and west across the across the pond that well I think I base that he's Westling which is. I think very important if you think there's major cities across the whole 2nd that will have a key. Effect and homeless in the potential of those cities but it's also we've seen those cities and within the reach of making sure there's proper Multan connectivity for people trying to get from small towns to the cities and various cities it was houses it within the power of the new jumps in government to change the lives and if they transform their lives but change the lives of people in these northern middles regions to the point I think yes finally we're being paid attention to finally and needs are being being looked after Can that happen in the space of a parliament Well you know I think the North has had a lot of attention over the last few years on the conservative governments and the whole concept of the whole and I was giving credit to my former neighbor George Osborne full so that it's something that really has a key commitment but I think a lot money than business rate reform to bring these dying high streets in the regions the we're talking about back on I think and you know here I am an ocean which is one of the most exciting high streets that you'll find in the country has been entirely regenerated I have to say started and mostly implements it under a conserved Council before traffic went to. The North everywhere acking do the same things that ultra high streets down but it is absolutely possible to regenerate those high streets there is a commitment to funding as being put in place all over put in place was there in the manifesto but also you know I think one of the things that is really important is that we simply open up and recognise that you know we have a an optimistic future and I you know I think investment has been helped back people have been starting to find because nobody knew where the country was going and nothing ever seems to be resolved we've had businesses that have been not investing in the King of redundancies all of that can now. And we can move on from the only thing David not even a case in a grand but just a just in a would you happy that Bush runs with this majority denounce how some of the the people blood pressure to some of the right of the party to get back in the box. I think we've seen over the last few months and indeed I saw an interview on the television the other day with France Well he's one of the leading members I think you're saying actually quite say pragmatic approach people recognizing that it's more important to keep the get than the fact. You know I think things are going to be a difficult thing to achieve we have a prime minister who wants to achieve it wants to smoothly wants to do it in a realistic sensible timetable and you know I think people across that also and across the country are going to be pleased to see the outcome of Graeme going to be talking soon again I hope it's just finish up with a chat amongst ourselves also 2 of the new faces in the House House of Commons it was good to meet those early on. Anderson is the newly elected Labor m.p. For Pani I like kind of lovely to see the labor only grain that put you in a pretty distinctive category takes it from just being green and then a Davison is the new conservative m.p. For Bush a book on the 1st time a Tory has ever held that seat it's been read since 1935 Vienna had good morning. Good morning so it will be both of you in a well what are you feeling right now from what are your feelings on the brink of this new book. This is never the plan that I was going to be the only light again some really disappointed and heartbreaking really to be the any one to be getting in that's not what I am very much and that's one obviously really really sad to be anyone Ok what about you. Incredibly incredibly excited this is just such an incredible opportunity to get parliament to be a few really strong voice for the northeast in a way that I don't buy concert tickets for it's what it was into this but it was just happen in the last few few moments come on foot Of course the Labor m.p. Who was shown the door by voters in the Dome Valley she was trying to brag but didn't didn't cut much ice she was too great a conversation with the of the shadow foreign secretary Emily Thomery on Sky News to get to safety richest a listen to this you know kissed on the lead us to a policy that did not listen to lay believe voices who just caution. He led us down the path of a 2nd referendum and I'm afraid Emily Thore did as well she said to one of my colleagues and I'm glad my constituents are stupid as yours. I'm sorry it's so acceptable reason to believe what I haven't asserted would be just to tell influence that they want she suggests that Emily Thornberry who was of course remain and would have campaigned for remain in a referendum because they went to be taught she told Helen Flint Emily Thornberry that the voters were stupid as well as stupid as hers for that's it's terrible to say just stupid of but it's far more than praxis this election and the results of it what about what about what just a few thoughts on that and when I heard that and I just said it out loud on ad effort for the 1st time but if that's not accounted to be believed when you make really thought recording votes is stupid oh I don't I don't know the whole context of that but obviously as I just said you can call his stupid and get away with that and I definitely haven't been in my campaign has been people cowed campaign of listening and that's Holby as an m.p. As well listen to residents and respond to what they're saying and obviously I need to listen to management far wider than just party as well as being a little London bubble as it were and we've come away. We had a fantastic campaign it was all going in opposite direction but you can have a version that you're going to voice and I know now just on this little this little sob sob sob story is not the end of Emily from Brazil ambitions as Labor leader calling leave Labor voters stupid leverage is. That. Something Ok for your political judgement what do you think I mean I think if that's true and that's a really pulling thing Emily to embrace to have said and just how much of a blood was huge I mean it's just solidifies the idea that you know the Labor Party is about it's a London based elate the Metropolitan out of touch with its voters the whole point if this is that working class folks to people on low incomes have drifted away from labor then you have a comment like that that leave is stupid and I just think if that if you want to inflate I think this is a significant playtest chance if there were a cost of Emily tweeted that picture of. A council house with England flags flying outside your European championship tournament and with a sneering comment I thought she'd learnt a lesson from that well Ok well as could of course help a brazen attack in the last few moments it's a bit of a bit of an eye popping developmentally same political space in the wider space of this country and its future Diana there you are in Bishop Auckland a conservative m.p. One extraordinary thing to happen but now you've got a job to do with the Member for that area so what is your mission on behalf of Bishop opened you know dealings with burst functions in government if your area is neglected and it's a pretty easy case to make that you area has in many ways been neglected what is proper treatment for your area look like. I think proper treatment starts with really listening to the priorities of local residents so you know what is less not will be interesting what you think should actually be done and what you're going for locally might my key figure is like a house cat because Scott as well as been so spoken about on the doorstep for the past year with these our local health care provision is not good enough so I'm already lobbying at Hancock to try and bring back our actions 97 hospital knowing it's not going to be an easy task knowing with political will with public opinion on our fight and if we can get the money in place it's absolutely Gable So that's number one priority and the 2nd something that us discussing earlier with Graeme Grady is leveling up a high street and I'm lucky to have full high streets in my constituency 2 of which sort of get barely 2 of which really need some serious help I'm so I'm really looking forward to seeing what's going to come in the Queen's speech to help level up those high States liquor assistance that was new before Bishop of the district with us then a flood from your perspective your new labor m.p. And there you are in Putney which hasn't got the most famous cases of poverty and deprivation in that I don't know that even partly there are problems but it's a pretty well Hill but it's after area do you think that London in the Southeast have had just too rich a slice of the cake maybe for too long is that your vision you'd be surprised the ponies are very diverse constituency on I can see that I can see down you know what I'm up in the air at Roehampton and that's an area that has felt very neglected as plainly the rest of the country has in many ways and we will be working very hard to take up the issues of residency Roehampton obviously Rex It was a big issue for us in Putney and the effect it's really all 3 ongoing negotiations will need them for the particular case just of just a focused on this down a little bit you look at the the Treasury figures from some of the ones they say that in 20809903 pounds was spent in the capital for every resident while in the us it's you know it is a big place but then we had 370. 6 pounds on transport spending $200.00 times more . What you make of that I think that should be more fair distribution of us country as well but we also can't look away from the fact that one in 3 children in Putney all in poverty 40 percent overcrowding of houses in some areas your only problem is London in the Southeast a bit too I think it means you need to be a fed more fair distribution and it also doesn't help the housing situation that so many people need to May have to London to get to get jobs that should be more fairly distributed across the country but also we need to look at those for local people they voted for Labor and came out many many people for the 1st time to vote this time they were inspired by Labour's manifesto but we've got to look at funding for schools and action on adult social care came up a lot on the doorstep as well also the environment we can't have 5 more years of inaction by the conservatives on the environment we just can't wait and we'll be opposing Heathrow expansion as near oh let's go you will get both of your thoughts we're counting on your on your leaders the different different leadership questions if you can both your party's going to start with you floor for later what leader you see in the lineup we all know the card a lot of it's going to be it's not fun little difference here but who do you fancy I absolutely don't know I haven't met many of them yet they really like general idea it's like it's like also the person coming in on the 1st day of school to vote for their head to go over something I really want to meet them and they'll be lots of factors and I'm not going to say which factor it is there are lots of factors in play some games what would you say what would you say what you want to see because I want to see what they're going to say 1st I want to talk to them and sit down with them and talk to them all. Day on other let's talk about your leadership question 1st Johnson is your leader Lord of all he surveyed say you are you as happy as you could possibly be with Boris Johnson as your leader I am I think he is really a great the right man for the job yeah I mean you know people said that he would never be able to renegotiate a Briggs deal that would call him and he's done a lot against the odds he's going to get Briggs it done by January that's a 1st but also much more. Not the vision that he selling is totally intruded why I became a conservative so visions in Indiana. It's easier to sell a vision and it is right after becoming It reaffirms the new prime minister and as I say a lot of recent research as he says he was going to reach out to areas like yours and unproven earn the trust of the former Labor voters in areas like Bishop Oconee then voted Conservative and voted for you clearly he hasn't done that yet these are your trust in him that somehow putting off that trick is absolutely not going to prove yourself. And no I honestly do you 100 percent believe in his vision because having a vision that we need to spread opportunity evenly across this country means that every policy that comes out now is going at it so I am 100 percent behind it leveling up areas in the northeast like Bishop work and making sure my residents have the best possible life in the future yeah whatever you say that they want to come into Yeah we talked a lot I did there and we talked a lot about. The Labor Party needing to change after his defeat but with yourselves winning all those northern seats and form a Labor stronghold do you think that the Conservative Party needs to change or will it be forced to change will evolve because of what's happened or do you think do you think the need to be a sea change in the way in your policies and your outlook I think that there will be a natural evolution given some of that really diverse range of candidates that have actually gone on to become M.P.'s and not and if not maybe through lots of what they are and I think I think basically we now have more people from what I call normal backcross more working class background you are going to have a very different outlook on life so having this a blue collar conservative movement within the party to really prioritize those those kind of key areas that will working class read bring in a party like now. Real world experience and a whole range of ways you know that I'm not just saying that people from backgrounds like mine have not real world experience but the point is dying because we live in an incredibly diverse country so making sure we have a real range of backgrounds a real range of views in parliament is incredibly important you know we begin to be in there in a couple days and I'm now you feeling about that you feel excited that would be natural you feel a little bit a bit of a feeling of trepidation How you feeling right now I am really looking forward to I'm really looking forward to standing up for those things I've been talking about on the campaign trail for a long time now and standing up for residents and making and trying to make those change which will be much harder now that we're not going to be in government but I'm very thankful to getting in there and making a difference and holding Boris Johnson to account for all these things he's been saying along the way because I don't think there is a trust there in the Conservatives I think people have given him their vote but it's very much a wait and see and I want to be making sure that we have a firm voice and see if those promises about the n.h.s. And cry and more police and the new money will be delivered an awful lot to prove as well as that it hasn't been able to prey on looking for to be part of that debate as well you know when you don't know what are you looking for what your days in the House on those green benches are you excited about it you're a little bit nervous about it was a feel I think it's probably natural to be a bit apprehensive in the sense it's kind of like 1st day at school. Realistically it is such an incredible opportunity and I'm so humbled that residents of Bishop will combine a council so many more children have given me their faith give me the actress and given me this opportunity to really shake our community I should say there are just tell us how old you are I'm 2626 your baby. So you say say they say you know there's a lot of life experience behind us about motion space you basically look the to me look to see you thanks for coming thanks very much for coming in trying to talk again before the 41 we really got half a minute left guys but this week it's going to be big it's a feeling of a long after the storm but it's so much going on his neck and yes he's you know you've got the Queen's speech coming up and really want to hey what some of us try and keep up very fragile and that's been one of the no. There's going to be see you guys back here again with a little different stuff to talk about. Thank you Jon I'm more and coming up but under Levon I have Snow Patrol under the spotlight we'll be talking to the legend Gareth Thomas as he nears the end of his amazing sports believe challenge comedian Reese James will be here to talk about his new series live music by Navan and we'll look back at the last 7 days in the news feed and water 7 days and it's been.

Dot co dot u.k. Forward slash Sport Relief. This is a one out of 5 Love I'd also not a bio cover with the program in a moment we'll have the latest on the continuing search recovery as rows of tourists who died on the volcano erupting island of White Island just off the coast of New Zealand we'll find out what the latest is in terms of the recovery in that respect we also hear about the U.K.'s warning to its citizens not to visit North East India where they have been clashes associated with India's new rules on citizenship that have a sectarian element to it. The prime minister Brose Jones of these victory last night in the general direction says that the healing be good and how so food will that be and the acknowledgement that the has been. If not the country being told apart so the drifts right through the middle of the country continues the conversation continues post-mortem was after the elections were here how that. Bait is expanding in a moment or 2 now divers in New Zealand the resume their search off white island for the body of one of those killed in Monday's volcanic eruption 6 bodies have been airlifted off the volcano 8 believed to have been left there after Monday's volcanic eruption 4 nights film OSA can tell us more so what's the latest in terms of this recovery operation for a little fart is in New Zealand and say that these divers they've come from the police force and also the New Zealand Navy facing unique in challenging conditions for a 2nd day they are searching for a body that was seen in the waters off white silence the day after the eruption now the water around why it's Hyland has been contaminated by the volcano and recovery teams those diving teams are having to wear specialist protective equipment they were also having to be decontaminated when they come out of the water so far there's no word about whether they've been able to find one of the last remaining victims of Monday's volcanic eruption in New Zealand's Bay of Plenty another victim is thought to still be perhaps near the crater or on another part of the islands but the authorities say that there will be no attempt today to return to the island to look for those remains so at the moment police and Navy divers are still in the water off white island looking for one of those remaining victims and the other is thought to be somewhere still on the island really dangerous conditions for those in the recovery teams as you described there Phil but they have managed to they not to recover some of the people that were left on the on. Yesterday on Friday dot there was a recovery mission led by the New Zealand military elite soldiers 6 men in 2 women were flown in on 2 military helicopters to White Island about 8 o'clock in the morning and for 4 hours they were in protective suits with gas masks it was very hazardous very hard working conditions to retrieve 6 bodies all of this with the risk from scientists that ortho warning from scientists that there was a 50 to 60 percent chance of another eruptions a very courageous operation as we say and those 6 bodies were taken off the island to a Navy ship then transported to the mainland and they have now been taken those remains to all cleaned hospital all kind is the biggest city in New Zealand a post-mortem examination is to be carried out on those remains today but of course the big big task facing the or far it is not just recovering those 2 lost victims but also identifying those who have been recovered from the island so we know that doing that grisly long task of identifying those bodies will be police disaster experts forensic pathologists and also dental specialists as well as you can imagine the relatives of the missing are still in that terrible state of flux they don't know for sure if their relatives are among the 6 brought out all who is remaining in the water or is that body we believe still to be on the island and it is reported that relatives of those missing feeling a sense of calm peace and overriding grief sure they wouldn't want to put anyone else's life in danger amongst the recovery to mature. Because I've seen seen the pictures go on as though people who are listening who've seen the pigeons will know that it looks like nothing or no this island after the eruption is just or the entire island is covered with this gray lava shadow no one is but the conditions that these people are being faced with it's remarkable when you look at those pictures that anybody survived this about 20 survivors remain in Kent in Intensive Care dot and some of them have the most appalling burns and doctors say that some of those survivors have life threatening injuries now they are being treated in New Zealand and here in Australia where there are specialist burns units and it's not just about burns very serious and widespread burns to the skin there also there's also severe damage to the internal organs as well and we were told of a couple of days ago Dr that many of these patients are having to be helped with their breathing because their injuries are so severe and we did find out earlier this week that New Zealand would be looking for $1200000.00 square centimeters of skin to be used in surgery and for skin grafts and I guess what one square centimeter is like the an individual box on the side of a Rubik's cube so if you imagine 1200000 of those it's a huge amount of skin that donated from dead donors and this skin is being used in the treatment of those survivors who have as we say the most appalling of it we forget how large an organ the skin is it's any way of knowing if the or when the volcano is stable. Threat level at the moment remains to this is a sliding scale from 0 to 5 so 5 is the most extreme so to indicate a heightened to a moderate to heightened greyscale of what they describe the scientists as volcanic rest the level of volcanic tremor as it's described on the island has fallen significantly there be no further eruptions since Monday's twin blasts and those to explosions came within a short period of time of each other we understand that they were short and sharp but the situation on White Island remains highly volatile and of course predicting when or if the volcano will blow again is an imprecise science there are monitoring cameras there are other seismic and geological instruments that scientists can use but ultimately they can't say this is the time when the eruption will take place they can only give an estimation of the level of risk and it's worth noting to Dalton that on Monday to 11 minutes past 2 in the afternoon exactly a week after the disaster the prime minister of New Zealand just into our. Is saying that the country will observe a minute's silence she has described this as an extraordinary tragedy so hopefully by then we will have news that goes to bodies will have been recovered those police and Navy divers continue to work you'd have to say in very very challenging conditions searching for that body that was seen in the water 24 hours after the eruption last Monday and the earth or it is also saying they are making a plan to return to the island to search for that other victim who remains on accounted for so hopefully by the time New Zealand and people around the world. Pours for that minute's silence on Monday those 2 bodies would have been recovered and worth noting to do that among almost 50 people on the island at the time were visitors from Australia the United States Germany Britain China and Malaysia so quite clearly the shock waves of this disaster have spread far beyond the once tranquil and peaceful shores of New Zealand's Bay of Plenty Well thank you for most of the U.K.'s wounded citizens who visit the north east of India after at least 3 people have been killed as protests against India's new citizenship laws grow a fortnight's roll turned and Tomi will something we've talked about before but really this is the story now in India and one which is seems to be developing every single day the government earlier this week in both houses of parliament passed a new citizenship bill which in effect covered the countries of Afghanistan Pakistan and Bangladesh and in it what the government said was that if you came from those countries seeking refuge in India you would in effect get it but there was one provision as long as you were not Muslim it applied to Hindus Muslims Sikhs pasties gens and Christians that has led to a huge debate within the country about the way that the country is moving forward and there are people on both sides of this debate let's hear 1st from Shut the door he's from the Congress party he's one of those who feels that. Having in law where you exclude one particular religion is completely wrong essentially this is a republic of equal citizens and for the 1st time now we have a bill being passed which explicitly excludes one religion from its view I find it difficult to believe this can stand the strict scrutiny of the Supreme Court it will certainly be challenge there but for now it's a black day because it's a day in which we have essentially run a coach and horses through something that has show foundationally basic to what our country is all about. Shashi Tharoor there from the Congress party the government dismisses that they said look there is no reason for Muslims in India to be worried about this build as citizens of this country this is only for people coming in from outside. Is a spokesperson for the b j p government doesn't want to let any law and then constitution and we had a they should abort it and here it is law will be challenging the Supreme Court of India and we will prove it that does not while it any other region of the Constitution this is going to end up in the courts but I think this is much more debate about the direction that India is going in some say this is a movement away from its secular past others say that a country that was based on religion is always going to end up being one where one religion the Hindu religion should be more important than others but meanwhile the protests to get bigger and bigger on the streets how large of a huge start and they're absolutely huge and there are different sorts of protests there's one set of protests against this bill and the fact that Muslims have been excluded from it and also other communities the Tamils in Sri Lanka the Buddhists in Tibet the range of Muslims from Manama as well is another example outside those countries so we have had large protests like that but the main protests are in the northeast of India and there in Assam the protest Rapsody huge there for a different reason because they're saying we don't care about the religion of these people we don't want them in our particular state if they're coming in from Bangladesh then they should be going to the state of Bengal not coming here we cannot accommodate more people a number of people have died already we think about 3 people we've had curfews imposed imposed in Goa Harty the largest city these are some of the biggest protests we've seen in the northeast and this is an area where traditionally we've had insurgency movements because people want to leave India the home secretary and which I was supposed to go he couldn't go. It's a complete state of turmoil and there doesn't seem to be any indication of these protests quite in down in fact they're getting bigger and bigger day by day even though the prime minister Mr Modi has tweeted people maybe not the best idea when you cut their Internet to say there's nothing for you to worry about at all they're not buying that message at the moment while the Foreign and Commonwealth Office here in the u.k. Don't seem to be buying vet assurance either what is the British government saying about this they're telling people to avoid the area and Assam is quite a popular tourist area because it has canteen anger which is home to the rhino in India you get a lot of tourists from Britain and other parts of the world who are going there and also traditionally it's the part of the world where tea comes from so you get a lot of people who want to get up to the Ts states and see how it's made so it's not just the u.k. The us as well we've had different warnings coming out from different governments in the e.u. This is a situation that is getting more complicated because also now some states in India like the state of Bengal the state of Punjab as saying we don't care that the central government has passed these citizenship laws we're not going to implement them in our states now the government said you can't behave in that way within the federal Constitution of India so you get a sense of a chaotic complicated situation which at this point in time we have no idea how it's going to be resolved roll turned to Richard Lewis is from the Daily Express We told me what's on the back page it's going to do a study it's a picture you can clock interest in there yesterday all 6 clear the top of the Premier League has now signed a contract extension which takes them so 2024 and he's looking to leave a legacy of course local determined to finally win the Premier League and he signed the squad of the moments outstanding we will level you have to stand trial and he wanted to develop things further So yes that came out of the blue a little bit but it just shows the commitment club it's like it's Liverpool I see. You journalist at the Express had your stock much is thinking as club signed this contract why. It was very interesting that is very true because the news broke around half past 11 yesterday of the contract but one hour and 23 minutes earlier in Glasgow Steven Gerrard signed a new contract with the right injures until 2024 exactly the same day that you can club's contract and let's put you into get a for now. And you never know who is Stephen Gerard the successor to you can close up in 5 years time has always been talked about his you know the thing with Steven Gerrard is going to a huge club to learn the trade of management and so much so much suggestion that he's a fugitive or manager or maybe that is all just trying to it's a it's some currency isn't it it might not be the amount to be planned but you never know Gerard certainly will be there right in just 2024 and when he leaves if the contract comes in and then you have another little joke about the gripes it is too much of a coincidence for journalists to ignore you would be do your job would you if you ignore that coincidence although Steven Gerrard said earlier on in the week that just to prove that his job ranges he's not using Rangers is just a stepping stone to move elsewhere he That's why was done is long gone Jack Yeah that's a very interesting point and and and a good point because that is so true. I think he wants to almost go they don't like to see it arranged beaten beaten by soda in the in the Cup Final last weekend. But they progress through to the next knockout stage of the right to late of course and he really wants to make his mark it's not only not an easy job but he's done is done well so far and he's not going to 5 years to really take on the chance to sell it when somebody tries to. Scotland and Jerry's returned to match them and obviously Go ahead of them and that 5 year time span that you mention is just about the right amount of time for you to be able to hold your head up without anybody accusing you of using it as a stepping stone even if you do you mean Von point well yes it had been there were 66 off years doing it and. That is very true and the thing is Liverpool certainly wouldn't want to take on a manager as the highest level of experience and Gerrard is getting that in Europe. And he's learning the trade at a tough price so you know you know if she's actually here on the cup Steven Gerrard's and I'm sure even if it's not in 2024 that's a few years beyond that I'm happy sure one day we will see him and see him a little manager but you know it is a meltwater in prospect this is a really old your town square it really is I wonder well I can't imagine what. You can copy thinking but nevertheless just for the benefit of humoring me if you would who can you imagine if it was to come to that decision. The Liverpool. Directors board and maybe even fans who would they choose Steven Gerrard a legend at the club who if his managerial stripes are up to par and could equate to your going club who by then would be a legend at the club if this season is anything to go by if you can replicate this over the coming seasons who would they choose. It's a very difficult choice and it really will be because the thing is I think even if we don't win the league this year I think the club already isn't actually crap after what he achieved last year after the quality of football I played of course beaten by my city title I just one point it was so close and then then winning the Champions lays a say. About steps a legacy but he certainly cried is our legacy already Klopp will go down as one of the crime as of all time but he does want to take this further and you think if he progresses like he's progressing because the political side of the man on the thing just like fantastic Wow what could have achieved within 5 years time of course have the Club World Cup coming up this week in a char where of course they'd have to have 2 chambers plank push the same time because they're in the Kara Cup quarter finals not before and then they're playing in the Club World Cup the 1st time following dying Qatar so there's an amazing success ahead of a livable equally he could set up a credit platform that Gerrard comes in wow what a team takeover it could be so it will be fitting in supply so little to regain the dominance of English football that had obviously the summer years during the there is a lot of other news in the paper as well not football news before we go into football let's get on to your specialist subject which is darts and well the great dogs tournament is taking place Alabama you know London yes the best 3 weeks of the year has just started after. The p.c. World out champions began last night and was almost a shock for the number one seed and the defending champion Michael Van Gogh and because he was one set down in his opening match against fellow does when you know class somebody can battle him back to some fantastic finishing any Eve aggressor it really has become a part a part of Christmas a part of the end the end the year of sports and it's such a. Huge event the World Darts championships 1st covered it over 20 years ago and the way it's grown has been unbelievable and the quality of play and and the stands are so high and the full houses and the noise the atmosphere Yes but the thing is obviously shocks are all part of sport I don't think I think the organizers revolt would have wanted I'm going out on the 1st night but they've progressed through so they can have have an easy way before his next match but certainly exciting few weeks ahead and ye employ your eye on one particular cricket defense board's person and Vivia as well yeah Ben Stokes is the clear favorite the awards tomorrow taking place in Aberdeen and I had lunch superhuman in the story with Paul Collingwood talking about Ben Stein's incredible treatments to shares in them on the cricket World Cup in New Zealand and then his amazing erratic set in that his Test at Headingley and so great great tributes from Paul Collingwood and it be a surprise if style x. Doesn't win the award of 3 there's this 6 great contenders going for it but Stokes really has been Sportsman of the year because of what was achieved in the summer within that winning that World Cup of course one might that that was phenomenal mentions united the you pointed out in the paper this morning yes extraordinary playing Everton tomorrow at Old Trafford and it is incredibly the 4000 the sec it is match when I've had a player for America to me and I matched I scored and Guy number 4000 right now goes back to 1937 obviously it's not for 1000 players it's a it's some players have been at school but they're homegrown players. And we've got a pace risk on the Tommy I'm talking about that in the fine Academy is a remarkable remarkable run. And it just shows that in this day and I drove of so many international styles coming to clubs United remain. Reminds of the to the heart of ones and develop their employers in that store during the lives of mice and Greenwood is not progressing through ever so wasn't so sure about that so yeah it's a really fascinating streets around and it's like it's perfect for a Saturday morning sort of separate get your teeth into and one that we didn't even know about probably And oddly I've edited their opponents later on today is another club which always seems to give the nod sadly Certainly car needs to get to me players but the question every journey is lives is where the big Dunc should get the managerial job after his success last weekend against Chelsea and I see that an old boy of the Everton Academy is giving these thoughts to your playbook and that's why I'm really of course wanted Everton and once or Manchester United are perfect just so that he had a press conference yesterday at Darby wary culture might use their view next year when he's allowed to apply. And he signed that if Everton win win tomorrow Trafford should not be 2 wins of course for Ferguson while given the job because he's pulled the passion back and he's got a fair point and inside the piper Ferguson is talking about and he says if it hasn't do win this match it be a greater achievement when he was a player and they think beating Manchester United they were incredible scenes last weekend when the h.l.c. . Excitement of the crowns and I just was there and I know why the way the reaction that the circus and got from clients and in charge going down the touchline you could just either just say employees die is the way to go boys let's on see him again that was real that wasn't just for the camera yes sadly our last album The ball boys respect this guy yeah and there was a lovely line come to come out about. How candles whites. Around. I don't know. How cold water she wore during the rivets and come out like they did last week and it could be a real cracking match the traffic and really says if I make it 2 wins out of so you know it's looking like Everton want to appoint a manager for a broad Well they might have the answer on a doorstep of the president of the news as well will catch of the debate continues after the general election yesterday and also we'll find out about the new green deal as it's now the 1st leg of the latest headlines Morgan.

Fine families East digital b.b.c. Sad Slough economy this is b.b.c. Crazy. As applies accurately defining today would have to say this is the morning after the morning after the night before if you know what I mean Advent night before indeed after Thursday died election victory or. Friday morning's election victory because that was when we knew for certain that Boris Johnson had secured something of an a.t.c. Big George c. In the general election well whenever it was our view want to describe it the conversation around that continues it will continue no doubt for some time beyond our conversation this morning Boris Johnson is going to visit the north of England later on after celebrating his party's biggest election win for 30 years the prime minister has said he hopes the conservatives victory will bring closure to the BRICs a debate and let the healing begin he won a commons majorities I say of 80 his party's largest since 987 in contrast Labor's. But it's worse election results says the 1930s party leader Jeremy Corbyn said he did everything he could to get labor into power but expects to stand down early next year when his successor has been chosen by the party earlier I spoke to Kate our inside he's a former political journalist who's now senior lecturer in journalism at the University of North Hampton and the Guardian columnist and former political editor of The Observer Gaby Hinsliff and Isles Gaby 1st who is she surprised by the election result yeah I was shocked I mean I was expecting the Tories to win but I thought it would be a much smaller majority and this would mean this was probably the talk. Of where some of the projections were a little bit over the top end but that wasn't you know where. Most people were expecting it to be it was almost like it once it once it happened once that will break down it will it will come down in a rush you know and suddenly it was a flood of the victory so yeah the exit polls were real a bit of a jaw dropping my master plan we saw Ok things really have changed I mean it was interesting I think I mean this the size of the majority is certainly surprising obviously you have to factor in the margin of error in any set of opinion polls and you look at the trend over the election campaign pointing at least to a majority but not as substantial as the it maybe think that actually what might have been going on was something that we saw a bit in 1000 back in 1902. People weren't necessarily fessing up to being conservative supporters. Politics has got so polarized these days that sometimes people prefer to stay quiet in the middle or force of don't know why it opened to the wire and I think you know quite a few people were making a final decision in the privacy of the ballot box and my goodness it came down in Boris Johnson's favor so what extent was this a Briggs it election though if you like it another referendum on breaks into one state was a referendum on Germany cool been. There's no getting away from you know the fabrics it causes enormous shadow over the whole thing but I think what made the election so complicated nor So what made it hard for many people to decide how they want to and it made the whole trend piece to get a feel for what's happening on the ground was that people were struggling to mak their preference which might take me in one direction. Against their you know their their preferences and all the rest of the domestic stuff and kind of not being able to make them sit together so that a lot of people thinking I can't cope with my new all try so but I don't feel it if you succeed leap to go outside. So so what am I going to do it was a kind of election where bricks it collided quite on comfortably with all the other things that are not about bricks and coping very much so we could have been very clear that he wants to argue that the treaty is you know you were down to breakfast and you know you'd have one if it wasn't for breakfast I honestly don't think that holds you know getting ready to carry. Your fact yes you know I mean you look at the feedback from. Labor M.P.'s who survived last night and those who lost the seat and there's been some an interesting polling about the number of columns Corben was mentioned as an issue on the doorstep and you look at the scale of the collapse in those labor Hartman's in the Midlands and the north it wasn't people bricks it by a long true. And it's actually jaw dropping looking at the disconnect between what it presents as the most radical left version of all the labor policy that we've had for decades that purports to represent the working man and woman and yet the working man and woman weren't voting for them on Thursday and that for labor is a real challenge. But beyond that I think breaks it wards the fundamental issue. And the simple slogans of the conservatives get bricks it done it can't be true and it can't through very very effectively played. Into the hands with out that message I do not think they would have been as we mostly successful in knocking down the labor was the only thing the Tories had going for them that to be honest I mean I think you know get breaks it down. I was obviously wheels of moxie at the time because because your stance doesn't say anything else you know all this. And it turns out you know right now that there is no but I mean if you look at I think the Tories were also doing well they look at the numbers they must of hacks and Tory remain a staying with them for fear of Corbin and I think we all you know obviously did our dramatic change is in those donors no one post industrial towns you know that it's a shock to say turned Tory but you know Labor lost badly across Scotland. Remain lost in some southern marginals you know places like Stroud which is incredibly remaining you know very green and very gaunt and raging and you know so you to to say that that is just about cracks it doesn't explain why labor was losing in remains as well the labor was down. And you already see it's not just and it remains the source it was worse than. That in remaining states and I think the Tories did make use the only other thing partials never said to call them get it done was don't let Jeremy cope in and post it I was wary of that or that they were indeed I did think it was interesting that if you drill down into some of the results in labor hold the if you put where the bricks party stood if you put the brakes it Party vote together with the conservatives if Nigel Farage pulled out not fielding his candidate in the seat it is conceivable that Labor would have lost even more seats because that was the job to see if you combine the conservative vote with the BRICs party that would comfortably have beaten labor. What Nigel Farrar did in those seats was split the bricks and let labor through which of course was. The Tory message in the seats a scary thing for labor I think it's not necessarily. This is not necessarily its flaw you know there are now a bunch of seats that used to be safe and didn't go this time but now have quite small margins of 90 we can't imagine muzzle cataclysmic performance it would have to cut into loose eyes as well but you know it's not necessarily as low as it can go. And actually if you pick I mean for example one seat Ashfield in North not in I'm sure I don't remember when I used to many many moons ago I was the lobby correspondent and not an Evening Post Ashfield m.p. At the time Frank Haines x. Miner he could weigh his boat the way the label whereas I was the last I went to I feel this time and it was transferred over to the Labor candidate she would. Play and she was a great actor I thought it was really interesting likely candidate who was really you know. Guts out for that seat and behind the Tories and an independent you know I know I'm coming 3rd in Ashfield it just shows the mountain that Labor has to climb now. And you know looking forward it could take you know more than one parliament for labor to pick itself back up off the ground here you know this is a really bad defeat for them if you want to be optimistic and you know I'm sort of . Well whether it's people looking for cheering up. There isn't as. Dire and disasters and awful and normally you wouldn't bounce back from this kind of thing so you know. Practically there is no argument that says if the main problem and we know slim opinion polling out today that I promise Cohen what he's going to next problem with Bret said Well Ok you know at some point Rex is going to be dumb. We all know that we will eventually enter a post Brix it is happening so whether or not you support it is no longer quite such an issue so there is an argument assess politics is so volatile now things can turn really fast maybe you know you can people can come out of declines quicker than they used to be able to the past I am saying that is a very optimistic scenario I'm not necessarily going to help but the let me say there is a look at what the science Yes I mean other interesting thing is I mean obviously some of the noise. Johnson's day. He made the same gamble that reason may did and he was on the way whereas she spectacularly lost. You know he has every reason to be. In credibly pleased with the conservative performance but that was actually the easy bit now it's going to get really tough yes he has a hefty majority in the House of Commons but the challenges ahead. On him then negotiating that long term deal with the European Union he set himself an arbitrary deadline of the end of the end of the 2020 a deal not scale has never been negotiated with such speed with before he says he can get it done we will have to see but there is still a we will danger that we might crash out without a deal. And then the backlash from the impact on the economy could be whale any over he's one nation aspirations. To deal with the public services it was interesting he was stressing that the Conservative Party had to meet the concerns of those in Labor voters. Who put their cross in the poor ebox front to. Sort of them on public services but if you get a very honed bricks it or No Deal bricks it he wouldn't have the economic leeway to provide the money for that and that's even before you still all skiing the question of right Mr Jones and what is your great plan to deal with the crises such as adult social care which the men and part government of the government has dumped this issue it wasn't in the manifesto but he can't keep Goldring a lot of pressure so he committed to finding a cross party solution we're miles you know is a cop out option but I think it's particularly there's a problem with the time which is you know I would think goodwill between the parties in preschool. The moment is not what is left of the Liberal Democrats now either they have a leader at the moment because she lost her seat if Jeremy Corbyn stays around he's suggesting that he might tell next spring or whatever then the Labor Party's not going to have an active media for a long time either so even if one wanted to get together a club with a hasty solution special there's not going to be a leadership that will agree to no such thing yes but the problem is the crisis is getting worse and worse and worse and people are really suffering and you take that building all along wave the brakes in negotiations not disappearing as some people think in a puff of smoke and we've got it done and now we can forget about it it is going to drag on and on and on and we get a whole bricks it and the public services all struggling and getting. Boris Johnson will have some questions too. From those labels that have given him. Really about public service is I'm more optimistic than you about it because I think a bigger majority does create the conditions where that the most likely scenario in which Boris would be pushed to a no deal Brix it which I think we now know he doesn't want because he put in a last minute last comment the conditions in which he was going to be pushed that are a small minority with they are paying a sales and saying you have to you have to you know if you have. A majority of you are not quite as in hock to the had an attendant say so you know you have the flexibility I think and confidence that point if you leave at the end of January and you get to the end of the year in the trade deal is not done which as I said. You know I think he has the flexibility then to say look how you know we cling to my we're no going back it's just going to take a bit longer to deal with it you know I think he has a certain amount flexibility for that I think that people are as you say public service is about the bourses never been very clear about what it was he stood for except what we need I think is a grand vision and I understand that there's a problem with those new seats I mean you can win those seats but if you want to win them again at some point. You need in the meantime to represent them and there are very different people look bunch of constituents perhaps in the next have to pass' used to representing conservative party is no longer now a sort of comfortable southern middle class party or it's no longer only that it's representing people with a whole different set of concerns and it's got to think about whole range of policy areas that have not been its expertise before you know it's got to think about solutions post-industrial areas where you know coal and steel is going in there and he's going to replace them since I've been a big problem when you're used to absentee not massive sorry you know it's going to think about half a rather than higher education it's. Got to think this is rather than can be to he's got to think that's all you need is got to think about representing a bunch of people who have different concerns to sort of crack story base at the same time is not. The kind of Tory base that it's still got to hold together and holding together that coalition seats I think is going to quite haunt I think Parcells has also got hold on a Saturday don't have to hold on just one second I just wonder if p. Before we can talk about the practicalities of the government and what the government will have to face can we just put a footnote on to the conversation of the post-mortem which no doubt will carry on long after this conversation this evening I wonder whether any is tied to what the practicalities of what the government will be able to do going forward I wonder if you would conclude existentially that this election destroys our democracy is concerned was a election which reflects the will of the people or whether it's actually about the will of the political strategists the will of the media. If you know what I mean by that I wonder if we can sort of extrapolate from the result last night one way or another Kate 1st I will be minded to say it is the will of the people I think. Who a great deal of this until. A lot of people were very very they'd all been awful awful activity in the Westminster bubble. You know social media campaigns by the political structure I think this just reflecting got a plea we heard an awful get bricks it gone. We don't trust Corwin it's a bull's eye on the people that we didn't like in the 1st place. You know you can argue that under the for the post system you know if you 2 percent voted for what may be. Ortiz is 48 and going to leave early forties but this is the system we have . And I you know I think it just does represent the country really accurately. I think yeah I think if it had been close I think there would have been a real danger that people would have contested the result would have found it really hard to contest except the result you know that a lot of well hang on portions not Tuesday throughout the campaign you know how do we know that people really knew what they were voting on they would get a lot of. Focus on this of dirty tricks during the campaign and so what if it had been really tight but when is this overwhelming I don't you can look to and say I want to turn to this really represents what people saw I think I think I think you're getting yourself to say it doesn't and you know within that of course it will always be said that you know the media is harder on left wing latest than it is on right wing leaders because the media bribing press is more dominant but I think you know that is the whether you've learned to navigate that or you don't label it as you learn to navigate successfully when labor leaders you don't and that may not be fair but I see how it is in which case you can say conservatively that actually they have paid similar prices. In the past but I also think it's worth flagging up we very much focused on the Labor Conservative battle story in Scotland and Northern Ireland is so important because we had different campaigns going on and I actually think this election is a potential real turning point the conservatives now have a clear route to bricks it brought in Scotland you had a terrific result for the Scottish who are committed to Scottish independence in Northern Ireland for the 1st time you now have more nationalist M.P.'s than unionist and he mounted their. The real thing. You know within 10 maybe 15 years the outset this country will no longer be United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland it will be united England Wales and Scotland will go on and Northern Ireland will have joint Republican. I worry about that too and I think we're in a really dangerous period for the union and I can totally understand I mean personally I mean it's like an entirely understand why you know England rappelling all the bits of the Union with what it's doing on Praxair it's interesting that one of the 1st calls that. Are made today was to Nicholas sturgeon and it was a secret stick your both sides he said you know after a referendum she said well I want one and both. Are arguing that you know they've got to he's saying I've got a mandate for Bracks and that's what we're doing and you're coming with us and she sang you know. The landslide the s.n.p. . This election we've got a mandate for independents and how that's result. I don't know I mean those 2 are more than a match for each other you don't you know no one goes broke betting on Nicholas didn't play in a fight and I can see just how many obvious leverage over the prime minister to make you give her the referendum she wants and he's oversee highly incentivized not to reference. But if like so it terms of under-estimated things that might get in the way of breaks it or timetable I would have said you know Scotland is right up there because what happens if Scotland starts arguing directly to Brussels look we want to leave you know you can't let Britain leave with ass when we've made perfectly clear we have a democratic mandate to.
