release killed, and lots of detail release as well saying that his body was found by his wife at their door in —— on the stairwell i think, three shots to his back etc. and on wednesday, there was this, we had condolences from his relations and collea g u es condolences from his relations and colleagues even boris johnson, condolences from his relations and colleagues even borisjohnson, our foreign secretary was tweeting how horrible it was an yet another russian journalist today press conference was called, and he was presented there, and it was all claimed to have been a hoax. he looks, that picture on the front, he looks, that picture on the front, he looks a little bit stunned by it all, but if we turn to the guardian, this is where you start to get a little more information on this staging of his death. the whole thing bamboozled me today, what i saw the clips come through, i'm trying to figure out what happened because on the front page as you saw
10:46 pm
before, you only live twice. it's like something out of a james bond film that you fake a death to expose someone. film that you fake a death to expose someone. essentially it seems to be that arkady babchenko was moved to keep after threats towards his life. the ukraine security says they found out that there was an assassination plot and a gave them months warning and stage this elaborate hoax and including does, even his wife and family did not know. imagine him going on tonight to explain to his wife how he faked his own death and why as well, but i think it's actually really bad thing for journalists or trust in journalism, because they are below bin collectors and estate agents in terms of how people trust in what we do in our professions, and the idea that a very prominent journalist has been critical of the kremlin and latimer boudin was —— blogger boudin was about, looks like a stage prop ina was about, looks like a stage prop in a russia can save big news no matter what it is now, and we have seen people from their russian state
10:47 pm
comparing this to the attack in salisbury. different matter, so although the whole thing is amazingly pulled off, i do wonder if it's a bad thing for our profession generally. the art playing with pr and it could've backfired. it let eve ryo ne and it could've backfired. it let everyone astonished, like sebastian said, the head of that organisation, they have quoted as saying that it's all it takes is one case like this to cast doubt on all the other political assassinations. it's incredible, and no one is really welcoming it the way the whole thing was handled. in the meantime, contrast this with an age —— aid to at the ukrainian government who posted justification to the pain caused to the journalist family and other friends. they said, caused to the journalist family and otherfriends. they said, he caused to the journalist family and other friends. they said, he cited charlotte —— sherlock holmes who is someone charlotte —— sherlock holmes who is someone who states a similar hoax in order to get what he needed, and

she's quoted as saying was not also paying for his relatives and doctor watson? it's a matter, if the language around it, the way it's being played up his incredible. they could've carried out without doing ina public could've carried out without doing in a public domain and that's what they were doing. this is what you do think, i might think it's her idea, thanks someone watching too many films and thought this is a good elaborate way, we should say though that one person has been arrested by the ukraine authorities, soap and they were to try and flush it out this would—be assassin, they may have been successful. but the way they did it, again the photographs you see on the newspapers are so stark that it looks really bad. you mentioned borisjohnson, stark that it looks really bad. you mentioned boris johnson, he stark that it looks really bad. you mentioned borisjohnson, he was caught up by the hoax is last week, and had a big conversation with them, and he was one of the people who is lambasting russia the strongest for what has happened here. he has now been made to look a fool for a second time in a row, we

10:51 pm
this report says the attitudes which clearly are 40 years out of date, it's about being an bringing more people tojunior it's about being an bringing more people to junior management levels so people to junior management levels so they can get to the level where they are now in contention, it's worth pointing out that there are two all marital words groups major, many have progress made. what's it seems to be is this deadline that was set by the government to meet the target, is looking at bit questionable. it's about pardo —— far away. to get that structural change to bring policies to make different parental choices is a lot to do in two years. i want to make a quick point this is posited a for younger women watching, but the number of all male board for paul from 152 two canon. in six years, so it's possible that we could do something about it. let's turn to the financial times, and the us is
