beyond and it is this talent organisations are missing out on. there is no doubt that the ability is there, it sounds as if the key to unlocking this is the communication. yes, communication, reasonable adjustment, it definitely takes both sides so an individual looking for inclusive employment needs to understand that managers are not there yet so they have to have that understanding and be able to communicate how their mind works but on the managers inside. what we do is support managers, have them understand those conversations and for the individuals to get across their strengths and interviews. for the individuals to get across their strengths and interviewslj suppose their strengths and interviews.” suppose there's a lot of training involved and once you're in that working environment and once the managers have got that, what about the trickle down to their colleagues because they are going to be in this open working environment, without come at a cost for companies in order to incorporate that?

come at a cost for companies in order to incorporate that7m come at a cost for companies in order to incorporate that? it will come at a cost of the do nothing at all. neuro diversity is not about really being inclusive necessarily. it is about hiring diversity, getting people different ways of thinking, different mindsets, different points of view. if you're not hiring these people or encouraging them tojoin not hiring these people or encouraging them to join your organisation, you are not going to be innovating at the space where your competitors are. organisations are missing out. now it is time for newswatch with singer ahmed who asks viewers had heard enough about the chick and a chess at sussex. is bbc newsjoining in the tabloid eating frenzy as mike was breakfast

best of lead for the prime ministers first big interview of the year? we featured last week some of your reactions to the bbc‘s reporting of the duke and the chest of sussex since the announcement of their intention to step back from their roles as senior royals. since then it is about to say that the couple have stayed in the knees. the queen prepares to meet prince harry and other senior royals to discuss his and his wife was my future. clean attended sandringham this morning ahead of the meeting. we will have more details from the meeting, she has asked for final details. negotiations continue as it reveals megan did not anticipate in the phone conversation is excited. it emerges her father could testify

against her in court. prince harry posts this, his first public engagement since his announcement of stepping back from royal duties. one reviewer who got in touch with us one reviewer who got in touch with us about coverage of this was tara and shejoins us about coverage of this was tara and she joins as now. us about coverage of this was tara and shejoins as now. with me is the editor of the bbc‘s news at six and news at ten. why were you unhappy about the coverage of the story?” think after several days of coverage and different stories after their announcement wanting to have more private life in canada, we really had had ourfill private life in canada, we really had had our fill and private life in canada, we really had had ourfill and iflicked on the news, as i often do, praying that the abc would not open and lead another billiton with a story about them. only to discover that there was a story, largely expected about

thomas michael. i had my head in my hands, i flicked over and thomas michael. i had my head in my hands, iflicked over and i was very disappointed. there are many, many great bbc reporters which i feel it would have better stories than another story legacy. too much coverage? in the past week it has beenin coverage? in the past week it has been in the headlines a bbc bulletins everyday, have you been overdoing it? i think festival, bulletins everyday, have you been overdoing it? ithink festival, it isa overdoing it? ithink festival, it is a serious story, a major story around the royal family and a future. there is huge audience interest in the story. at the same time, i completely take that point but what i would say across bbc news, i think we lead on the story when it was a legitimate leader story but we also had the crisis surrounding iran at the top of our

running orders and websites and radio bulletins. last friday we lead the news on stormont and the return of the northern ireland executive, what is going on regarding climate change and that has been the lead story as well. in the round, the balance has been about right. to be fair, it is a big story, isn't it? he seemed concerned partly about the speculation rather than the story? indeed. i had no issues with the original story of the couple going to canada, obviously public interest in the finances. i am all behind coverage of that. however there have been a lot of coverage online on other lesser media of the speculation that her father might have to testify so very much conjecture and nothing definitive or

factual and i was therefore extreme disappointed when i flicked on and bbc lead with that article. that has happened in the past week, a meeting with the clean and most of that coverage then about whether thomas might testify. it is just speculation and it serves the agenda of certain newspapers? obviously we avoid speculation and we try to base out avoid speculation and we try to base our journalism avoid speculation and we try to base ourjournalism in context and properly sourced information. the issue regarding thomas came out of court papers involving the case between the daily mail and meghan markle that had emerged the night before. the following day there is this prospect of her father potentially testifying against his daughter in this, or being called as a significant witness and that was

what the reporting was doing.” a significant witness and that was what the reporting was doing. i know he had concerns about the impact of the coverage on the couple themselves, don't you?” the coverage on the couple themselves, don't you? i do. i do feel, i am fairly neutral on the royals, on the whole they do a good job andi royals, on the whole they do a good job and i am all for coverage and reporting on their movements and what they are doing for their public and how they are funded. i think they should be allowed to get on with it and to hand them, ever since that announcement, yes i take the point that other media are all over it, it is a frenzied period of reporting but i just it, it is a frenzied period of reporting but ijust feel that once it starts to get into areas of speculation, it is less in the public interest. a lot of viewers feel there is a difference between the top line of the story and the way the papers turn it into something that seems to be quite dark and should the bbc not be rowing back a bit now? part of the

challenge is, this is obviously getting major coverage across the media and on social media so that is that sense of wherever you turn, you are hearing or seeing the story, whether you want to or not. what about the couple themselves? these sort of issues to fallen to our editorial conversations about whether we should cover the story are not and whether we have an adjustment purpose in doing that and ican adjustment purpose in doing that and i can reassure adjustment purpose in doing that and i can reassure her adjustment purpose in doing that and i can reassure her that we do have these conversations. in other times oi'i these conversations. in other times on bbc news, we cover some of the great work that harry and megan have done around the issue of mental health and raising awareness of that issue. do you feel reassured by what you have heard ? issue. do you feel reassured by what you have heard? i feel partly be assured, i feel concerned. you have heard? i feel partly be assured, ifeel concerned. raised another point there which is interesting, each justified your coverage by saying that there is an

enormous frenzy and interest on the other media and i did feel that when i switched the news on and you lead with that article, it was a reactionary response because that news had been around since the night before and i feel the news had been around since the night before and ifeel the bbc news had been around since the night before and i feel the bbc should news had been around since the night before and ifeel the bbc should be doing more to lead the media, other than follow. we will have to leave it there, thank you both. one of the rows during the campaign leading up to december general election concerned borisjohnson's failure to appear as invited and as other party leaders had on the andrew neil show. since then, ten downing st has been a clear that neither the prime minister other senior ministers would be interviewed on radio four‘s today programme anytime soon so there was some interest in where or if boris johnson would appear on the bbc airwaves in the new year. the answer? tuesdays breakfast programme and among the subjects covered in

the half—hour conversation was the proposalfor big ben the half—hour conversation was the proposal for big ben to chime on the night of the uk leaves the eu. we are working up a plan so people can bung a bulb for a big ben bong. i haven't quite worked it out. i love that you are developing policy live on tv! big ben is being refurbished, they seem to have taken the clanger away so we need to restore the club are in order to bong big ben on brexit night. maggie approved of the way dan walker conducted that interview. others felt breakfast was not an appropriate outlet for this encounter.

we asked bbc breakfast why they had invited boris johnson we asked bbc breakfast why they had invited borisjohnson onto the programme to be questioned by dan walker. they told us the interview was watched by 2.9 million people. wednesday's news at six lead with news of a significant clinical trial aimed atfinding news of a significant clinical trial aimed at finding treatments for motor neurone disease which they are currently no effective treatments, let alone a cure. i lost everything. ruth was an active runner and

certainly a culture and some of the showers have yielded some snow and there are still a few squalid showers to come before the end of play this evening. over the weekend, very different. cold nights and fine days because we have high pressure building. you can see those showers in southern areas and they will keep going in the north into tomorrow. when she over the hills so they could be around with temperatures dropping to below freezing. there is concern dropping to below freezing. there is concern for untreated roads and pavements. otherwise it does look like a fine and dry start to the day. a crisp and cold one. showers eventually eating in the north but still that keane went, perhaps a little cloud coming into the south but for most us, again temperatures will be down on recently but given the sunshine and lighter winds, it will feel quite pleasant. a cold start on sunday and monday, some more fog to watch out for. there is more fog to watch out for. there is more on the website.

this is bbc news. the headlines: two of the candidates for the labour party leadership emily thornberry and rebecca long bailey launch their campaigns today. and i know that i can do the women who stand up and loosely fight back against a boris johnson. who stand up and loosely fight back against a borisjohnson. we are going to need to have somebody tough, somebody resilient and battle hardened to win that fight. my kind of socialism is the kind in which we all rise together. my kind of socialism as a kind of a britain in which everyone is free to dream, free to climb and free to succeed.
