we are going to start with ryanair. michael ola area came out and said we mess this up. he sounds quite contrite, which is not what we expect from michael o'leary, admitting the airline's decision to cancel flights for up to almost half a million passengers over the next month or so, is a mess. they have screwed up the holiday rotor and after changes, they didn't have enough pilots. insist they do have enough pilots. insist they do have enough pilots. insist they do have enough pilots but they are off on holiday somewhere. where do pilots go on holiday when they fly around the world the rest of the time?” don't know, but he fights the suggestion norwegian air approaching the pilots are muscling in on
10:46 pm
ryanair‘s market out of ireland. giles, the handling of this has been appalling? normally michael o'leary defies all pr convention, get away with stuff. but this is cover—up, after cover—up, they blame thunderstorms, they blamed french air traffic controllers... everybody blames the french. people are wondering can they survive, i suppose the one thing on their side is they are still cheap but they have to be value for money. their share price has gone down and they are facing a £20 million compensation bill. it is huge for airlines now, it huge amount of transparency is now. united airlines, people filming with a passenger being dragged through the aisle. he has been quite defiant in the past when it comes to the media, but is that sustainable in the long
10:47 pm
run? probably not. we will see if his level of contrite and as has done the trick. also, theresa may says she is driving this thing, brexit. not that bloke in the back—seat, he can shut up for once. this underlines the dangers and kind of naivete of number ten. they were going to do a big theresa may speech two we e ks going to do a big theresa may speech two weeks in advance. that invite someone two weeks in advance. that invite someone like boris johnson two weeks in advance. that invite someone like borisjohnson to come out and say something. it fuelled speculation, borisjohnson has fuelled the agenda and it has become about the £350 million and how we can pay this £350 million repaid to the eu, it can go back into the nhs. it wasn't on the agenda. it has reignited stories around her
10:48 pm
leadership, how strong she is. it has fuelled speculation on leadership talk. she wants to convey, i am a strong leader, i am in control and i will lead us out of europe and i have a vision for the future. but bowman, the question is, can she survive, it will boris walk out of the cabinet? who will take over and the problem on friday is expectations will be so high, can she actually reach them? also, by then, questions will be about theresa may, £350 million, will go back to the nhs? isn't it also laying bare, those very clear splits there are in the cabinet about what brexit should mean? it seems as if boris is making it clear that as far as the british people are concerned and the vote was concerned, it didn't mean staying in the single market or the customs union at any
10:49 pm
cost. certainly if we have to pay to have access. he wants to make sure thatis have access. he wants to make sure that is in theresa may's speech on friday? what boris is concerned about, the red lines, what british people voted for in a brexit referendum could be breached. they are things like the cost of the divorce bill and what are trading arrangements pose brexit. how much access we get to the single market and under what terms. others might think his most recent interventions are because he was hurt, i think the suggestion was. he had received so much criticism for lying during the referendum campaign. he didn't feel he was lying. it seems odd to repeat that allegation concerning £350
10:50 pm
million? boris is convinced he is right and if he says it enough times, people believed him. he has a reputation for being charming and convincing, which has failed him in recent times and he is keen to get back onto the front foot. after all of this, still bubbling away is the leadership ambition, which hasn't gone away. he wanted to make sure he was seen as gone away. he wanted to make sure he was seen as the main rival and contender to theresa may. same story on the front of the daily express. theresa may coal and i am driving britain out of the eu. giles, is there no way she can fire him? no, she can't. because... the best thing she can't. because... the best thing she can't. because... the best thing she can do with him, is hold him close. boris, is being boris. if she had a majority, she could fire him, but she is in a minority government and allmps are
10:51 pm
but she is in a minority government and all mps are powerful. the best thing she can do is keep in close. her biggest weakness is head biggest strength, nobody wants to get rid of her, but she hasn't got control. he is almost daring her to say, sack me and we will see what happens. it could be a lightning rod. the strategic mistake by him, whoever wields the knife, doesn't actually wear the crown. that is the problem. his problem throughout, whilst he remains popular with conservative grassroots, he doesn't have a natural constituency still among the backbenches. would he get enough support in the backbenches? that is why he wanted to prove to mps he was up why he wanted to prove to mps he was up to the job. one of the reasons why he supported brexit and i think theresa may coming out boris, is boris lying is an admission that she

has no ability now to say she wants to get rid of him. she will have to stick with him and also, giving him the option to continue causing trouble. front page of the daily telegraph. it is the cartoon. and it says, let's bring it up for the viewers. there it is. it feels brexit is being driven by wayne rooney. of course, wayne rooney to day was in court over his drink—driving. amber rudd, theresa may, front seat, back—seat, who is driving. you journalists love it. daily telegraph, what is this on amazon? when you want to buy something on amazon and you scroll
