mason, played in full on newscast and in shorter versions elsewhere on bbc news. you talk in the book about the "deep state". i mean, isn't that to indulge in conspiracy theory kind of quackery? ijust think british politics has to move on from the whole sort of personality politics of "who's the leader, "what has x said, what has y said, are they a hypocrite"? to what the fundamental issues facing our country. and ijust feel there is not enough serious discussion about that. you're a massive taylor swift fan, aren't you? i think you've met her. is that right? i have met taylor swift. yeah. _ all the stuff about the lasting less time than a lettuce... this isjust pathetic, you know, point scoring. keith phair had this reaction to some of the lines of questioning there. linda harley had another concern, asking... scott young also had his reservations. we put those points to bbc news and a spokesperson told us: thank you for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions about what you see or hear on bbc news, on tv, radio, online and social media

so chris, for an effective cross examination, mr. bove doesn't need a perry mason moment where pecker breaks down on the stand. all he has to do is kind of chip away at mr. pecker's testimony, and i think he's done a decent job of that. >> yeah, there are points at which, again, reporting from inside, they talk about the way bove was approaching this, the description of david pecker is that he's a smaller man, fairly slight, that he has a kind of a soft demeanor, which belies, right, the jobs that he actually did, but that's the way he's coming across on the stand, and at one point, bove got pretty pointed and raised his voice a little bit. are you very careful when you're doing a cross examination about how you come across in contrast to however the witness presents? >> right, because there's two things you're trying to do there. one of them is to get the witness to say things that help your case. that's actually what you're trying to get them to do. you're trying to get that opposing witness to say things that help your case. the o
