looters are there, which is horrendous. it is dutch and french said the dutch and the french will have to help them. but when it comes to places like cuba and barbuda, thatis to places like cuba and barbuda, that is where our aid should be, to help these people, because it is not these people's fault, they are very poon these people's fault, they are very poor, they need assistance and quickly. what about the argument that these countries live in a hurricane area, it is the season, there should be greater reparations? but none of them has ever had this level of devastation. since 1928, that was the last one. i think it is really time, remember, bangladesh, india, pakistan, that area, 1500 died just a month ago. something really disastrous is happening. you saw what happened in texas, going to
10:36 pm
florida, when are we going to start seriously examining the arguments put forward on climate change? we really have to do that. but how much is contributed by man—made causes? but whatever we can do. you can't stop nature. but i take your point about hurricane irma. this was a bit ofa about hurricane irma. this was a bit of a one—off abend. about hurricane irma. this was a bit of a one-off abend. but in may not be. areas like bangladesh which have a lwa ys be. areas like bangladesh which have always had floods, i have to to people in bangladesh saying, in the last five years, it has been like nothing ever before. is that true co—owner nothing ever before. is that true co‘owi'iei' “— nothing ever before. is that true co—owner —— is that true? nothing ever before. is that true co-owner -- is that true? are they lying? they co-owner -- is that true? are they lying ? they know co-owner -- is that true? are they lying? they know what to expect, they have an idea. if you read properly and in an unbiased way what societies have in telling us is coming to past and we're not talking about it. if climate change is

started on thursday, and there will bea started on thursday, and there will be a vote on monday night, and he is saying to people, for goodness' sake, vote for this bill, or it will be chaotic. i suspect they will get it through, apart from the odd tory rebel but i think a lot of labour rebels will vote as well. let's power through. the sunday times, well, it is sort of a brexit story but tony blair says, you can actually get tough on immigration, you can control it all. stable door after horse is gone. i don't care what tony blair has to say about anything. he was the worst prime minister we have ever had. why do i ca re minister we have ever had. why do i care what he has to say? yasmin and i agree on this. let's move on. pa rents to i agree on this. let's move on. parents to sue school over boys in
