organisation called bieliaiev and they had £7 million — an extraordinary amount of money— to be spent before the referendum. the treasurer for b leave announced they would give an extra money to spend to actually campaign before the referendum. michael gove and boris johnson have both denied they knew anything about this and this is something that there is another organisation like cambridge analytica, another one, may have been involved. the lawyers are saying the company had never entered in any contract with cambridge analytica. it is a very complicated story. what is interesting, it is a
11:33 pm
weekend story that turns into a work weekend story that turns into a work week story and the work week story is the denial. denials from michael gove and boris johnson saying that it not know what happened if anything did happen. to be clear borisjohnson anything did happen. to be clear boris johnson saying anything did happen. to be clear borisjohnson saying the allegation is utterly ludicrous and michael gove said the referendum must be that. moving onto story on the ft. ca rles that. moving onto story on the ft. carles puigdemont triggers barcelona rally. ca rles carles puigdemont triggers barcelona rally. carles puigdemont went to belgium and now he has gone to germany, in the hope of avoiding extradition back to spain. he has been living in self—imposed xl and how been living in self—imposed xl and now he is in germany and there is the fear of independence supporters for catalonia that he may face 30

years in prison. spain needs to tread very carefully. there are big demonstrations in barcelona and the federal government needs to make sure it does not do anything too drastic which could inflame tensions. here you have a group of people who want independence and if they are too heavy on this, the eu, it will not look good. criticism about how the spanish government we are last on. they were quite violent on the street. funding revolt. urging action that there is more money available for health and social care. social care is in a terrible mess in this country and the continuum from getting someone out of a hospital bed and into social care has fallen apart in many parts of the country and they are very worried about midwives and the
11:35 pm
fa ct very worried about midwives and the fact that babies are dying in what isa fact that babies are dying in what is a western country because there are not enough midwives to help and i went through the birth of both my children through amazing midwives... absolutely... and there is this problem with tourists coming and availing themselves of national health stop a friend of mine had a heart problem in france and as he went into hospital they took his credit cards. there is provision to do that in this country but how often it happens at not know. you come from america and you look at the nhs from different eyes. in the us which could not have a national health service and have the pet for healthcare. another interesting dynamic is this call for more tax. that was huge campaign for brexit
11:36 pm
supporters. corbyn is hostile combat the labour leader accused of siding with anti—semites again and again. this keeps coming back for discussion. i am really surprised by this. too little too late when i see it. you can't just this. too little too late when i see it. you can'tjust keep saying sorry. there will be a protest tomorrow. it is unprecedented, the first time since world war two since a major party has faced protests like this and jeremy corbyn and needs to do something more concrete. jeremy corbyn is often the person in the eye of the storm. a very anti—semitic mural was taken down and a wise friend of mine said he has never met a terrorist he doesn't
11:37 pm
like. hamas, hezbollah are all his friends. he will deny that he has been involved directly but has accepted their pockets of anti—semitism in the party and has today come out more strongly than other commentators have seen in the past, he utterly condemns anti— semitism and will not tolerate any. it is right that he says that but it was a whitewash job done last year on anti—semitism. the party that make they said they would not accept this about black people and we should not accept this aboutjewish people and he is right. in the telegraph still, the eu threatens breakup over at google. why are they so breakup over at google. why are they so concerned about the power that
11:38 pm
google wields? the right concerns. —— there. there is a tax which is try to get 2.1 billion from google does not pay any tax in his europe. but as we are discovering, google, all these tech companies are where you put your stuff in like facebook, they know so much about us and it was something that most of us were vaguely aware of what are now very aware of and the eu are saying something must be done. i do not know what you can do with an american company where people are going voluntary into it. the eu does not likely the dear to have so much power. it is up to us, isn't it, as consumers to be wiser. is it a
11:39 pm
generational thing? it is up to us. this idea that people are wising up to the fact that these companies held as saviours. long, especially in the global financial crisis, have 110w in the global financial crisis, have now gotten too big. maybe, if you, for instance, use google to search for instance, use google to search for things and communicate people and by things, it might be difficult because it is everywhere. and it is useful. we all know what we mean when we say it. is there this opportunity to have your data removed once they have collected it thatis removed once they have collected it that is it. that is quite difficult. we were talking about coming off facebook and worried about coming off some of the other things. i do not think you can never remove it.

once it is their, it is there forever. what it means, sadly, nobody is going to write anything deep or meaningful on their site again. or people leave them all together. the metro, i know you are both thrilled about talking about cricket. it is just not cricket, on a sticky wicket, questions raised over the ashes. we have the two players involved here. ferres been a huge amount of shock, criticism, even from the australian prime minister. —— there has been. even from the australian prime minister. -- there has been. cricket is seen as one of the last bastions where people are gentleman and a plate properly and there now seems and they have admitted to it, they we re and they have admitted to it, they were tampering with the ball which means, apparently, that the ball does not come at you at a straight
11:41 pm
line... it swings, yes... luckily a do not have to watch cricket any more. . . do not have to watch cricket any more... laughter... do not have to watch cricket any more... laughter. .. but do not have to watch cricket any more... laughter... but the fact they have been tampering with it, which you can do with dirt and sticky tape that you put in your pocket and apparently the camera caught one of them doing so. it is quite shocking. if we lost the ashes in this way we might demand to replace them. that is the question, whether it was going on in that competition as well. this is a deepening crisis and, as an american, i know that the ashes is incredibly important but it speaks toa larger incredibly important but it speaks to a larger point. people watch sport to distract themselves from the everyday life and if things are tampered with, it is less fun. in the guardian, a picture of the stu d e nts the guardian, a picture of the

students were 70 people were shot dead. part of this extraordinary rally we saw yesterday, march for our lives march for our lives. how much traction this will happen at the moment they are making a lot of noise. this is the first group i have seen who will go on and on making a farce. i thought the parent of young children killed would go on but they are probably heartbroken. this is a whole generation saying, in a, and i think there will be some traction, whether it is during mr trump mahmoud abbas presidency we will see but it will affect the way america sees not just will see but it will affect the way america sees notjust guns that shoot one bullet at a time. —— mr trump's presidency. the odds they are up against are we meant. as an
