everyone seems to be except in that president trump is coming. everyone seems to be except in that president trump is cominglj everyone seems to be except in that president trump is coming. i think he is. this is an exclusive story by caroline wheeler. saying donald trump will snub parliament and speak to the people. he will do a big rally somewhere outside of london, probably in birmingham, cardiff or somewhere else. a big, secure venue. iimagine the somewhere else. a big, secure venue. i imagine the american secret services are probably pulling their hair out at the thought of it to raise money for veterans. the couple of things in this story. he was going to come during the summary says anyway, which avoids the problem of him not speaking to parliament. whether it is his remake to say i want to meet people are not politicians. i am
10:35 pm
to say i want to meet people are not politicians. iam not to say i want to meet people are not politicians. i am not sure what the precedent is for president is not doing big rallies. previously, obama and clinton have done stuff with schools, arts and charities. and clinton have done stuff with schools, arts and charitieslj and clinton have done stuff with schools, arts and charities. i do not see why he cannot do that. state visits are not set in stone. there seems not to be a reason why not. it is looking more like the end of summer is looking more like the end of summerwhen is looking more like the end of summer when parliament is in recess. one of the ideas we gather is that he might have been able to come at the same time as the tory party co nfe re nce the same time as the tory party conference and they might have got him up there to address them. that would have been a rally of some sort. david cameron is very keen on michael bloomberg, the mayor of new york. i think they have abandoned that idea. they have decided there
10:36 pm
was too much controversy. i think the state visit will go ahead. all particularly intriguing because of the remarks from john burke in the house of commons putting them back in the spotlight. it has cast doubt over the future of hisjob. what do you make of the story on the front of the telegraph? i think you have a nswered of the telegraph? i think you have answered it by saying back in the spotlight. that is where he likes to be. this is a new row. apparently john birt coe was doing a talk to stu d e nts john birt coe was doing a talk to students at reading university. ——. he declared he had voted remain. he spoke very politically. we all know that the speaker is supposed to be apolitical, even though they come
10:37 pm
from one of the main parties. once you become the speaker, you put aside those foolish things. he's stands unopposed as well. that is the tradition. i think probably this is slightly more damaging than his comments about donald trump. why does it matter? for people who see the speaker, a lot of people only see him at prime minister's questions. why does it matter what his views are and if he expresses them? effectively years chairman of a big meeting, isn't he?|j them? effectively years chairman of a big meeting, isn't he? i am not sure thatjohn a big meeting, isn't he? i am not sure that john kaziranga a big meeting, isn't he? i am not sure thatjohn kaziranga national park would like that description of him. someone like john park would like that description of him. someone likejohn bercow is incredibly powerful. —— thatjohn bercow. in one sense it is right. he is the one person in the country in
10:38 pm
a position to throw the prime minister out of the house of commons if necessary. absolute power is right. that seems to have led him to make the astonishing outburst about donald trump in the first place. make the astonishing outburst about donald trump in the first placem it astonishing if so many mps share that view? is he representing the view of the majority in the house of commons? if he wanted to represent the views of mps coming he could have engineered a vote. there will bea have engineered a vote. there will be a debate about donald trump addressing parliament. that will ta ke addressing parliament. that will take place in westminster hall if the speaker tried to introduce that in the main chamber there would have been a vote and that would have can is the opinion of mps. that could have given him cover. he wants to be the person to say it. i am sure the queen, with all her years of experience, is more than capable of
10:39 pm
dealing with a state visit from someone that perhaps she may not welcome as much a sum and she has something more in common with. we have had mugabe, we have had the bahraini and is, the chinese. it is not like we strangers to people we do not agree with. i sure the queen could have organised state banquet. you do not hear about the queen being a remain or a brexiteer, do you? i know lots of people think that the house of commons is very old—fashioned. it is. it is those things, there are plenty of ways of dealing with these things without you having to be personal. you have both been knocking around westminster for quite awhile. you
10:40 pm
have seen a series of speakers in the nicest possible way. you have seen a range the nicest possible way. you have seen a range of speakers that you go back to jack whether or, before. is john bercow so unusual. has he done things differently? one thing he has tried to do is try to modernise the place. he has brought in a young family. that is something people do not remember before. i think it is rather uncomfortable for him. he has tried to do that. what he has achieved quite a bit is to stand up for the right of backbenchers. we have made sure they can get their voices heard and it is notjust the top was a good classes in government and opposition. will he still be in and opposition. will he still be in a year's time question i think he will. if they voted no confidence in him in the next week it would fail.
10:41 pm
in the observer, the church of england is back. the synod. simek with a meet this week, that is the ruling body of the church of england. —— they meet this week. this is a row which has come from quite a group of retired bishops, actually very prominent bishops, including people like peter selby, the former bishop of worcester and the former bishop of worcester and the former bishop of worcester and the former bishop of oxford. that is why most people would know these names. they are people who have gravett as and background. they have written basically to the ruling soon odd and said, you are talking the talk about being more inclusive on 95v talk about being more inclusive on gay marriage and lgb tu rights but
10:42 pm
you are not walking the walk. the fact it is coming from very respected, sensible figures in the church of england is why it is significant. the church of england seems to march 20 years behind the rest of the country. we have only recently rest of the country. we have only rece ntly ha d rest of the country. we have only recently had a woman bishop. they have been arguing about it for yea rs. have been arguing about it for years. women clergy for nearly a0 yea rs. years. women clergy for nearly a0 years. it took that long to get there. now we're having the argument over lesbian and gay rights. again the country has moved on. when gay marriage was introduced when david cameron really stuck his neck out. he put his politicalfuture cameron really stuck his neck out. he put his political future on the line. the country was perfectly happy with that. that is what the church has to realise. it is not a huge issue. we are running out of time to stop want to jump ahead a couple of stories to a cartoon on
10:43 pm
the front of the daily telegraph. it has been a week of not very good news. not very good news about the national health service. we have done a week of broadcasting in the bbc but there have been lots of other stories about what the experience is like for staff and for patients. matt, always reliable on the front of the telegraph. tell us about it. a chap turns around and talks to his wife. he has a great package in his hand. that is a 1000 piece jigsaw. package in his hand. that is a 1000 piecejigsaw. he package in his hand. that is a 1000 piece jigsaw. he says package in his hand. that is a 1000 piecejigsaw. he says i am taking this with me in case i have an accident and end up in a&e. we do need a laugh sometimes.” accident and end up in a&e. we do need a laugh sometimes. i hope neither of you have been in hospital recently. no, i have not. not at all. we have come in for a paper
