poison a former spy of attempted to poison a former spy of theirs and i am afraid that i am, i ta ke theirs and i am afraid that i am, i take a very suspicious view of anything that russia says and i am so anything that russia says and i am so farfrom anything that russia says and i am so far from convinced that this vaccine is real and we had that report two or three weeks ago that they were reading british and american labs to steal vaccine secrets. so let us not give russia too much credibility on this issue but i think of the wider point is that russia operating with india and there is the science of course of finding a vaccine, but there is the geopolitics. who gets vaccines first and if that country like russia or china or a country with the poor democratic record gets a vaccine for us, are they going to share it with a country that does them favours or
10:46 pm
are they going to operate with policy where vaccines go to the other people in the world and i think that they're beginning to see in this story, a little glimpse of the politics of high vaccine roll—out might happen. the politics of high vaccine roll-out might happen. a lot of big questions. let us get nigel‘s perspective, i hope you, we know the absolute upheaval from the local community in salisbury, but a lot to come out for this race for the vaccine and concern for who is going to make money out of it. what russia is doing here is trying to use its power in the vaccine is one way of doing it. trying to do something similar by sending ppe around the world. i also, similar by sending ppe around the world. ialso, i'm pretty suspicious of this vaccine. it is nothing to go be too keen on taking at the moment it was rushed through tests and
10:47 pm
according to the business standard, 40,000 russians are currently going through clinical trials in 45,000 indians would do the same thing. but, a vaccine that is produced quite so quickly, we are all working ha rd to quite so quickly, we are all working hard to get one as soon as possible, but this went on to be dubious to me. we will leave it at that, i am sure russians will have something to say about that. but we will leave it at that and let's look at the times where we are looking at what singapore is being offered and an incentive to stay at home, this dedication at home, to boost tourism and it is an interesting idea. what does the paper make of it, will there be uptake? it reminds me a little bit of the eat out to help
10:48 pm
out scheme in august where people could get up to £10 off on lunch or dinnerata could get up to £10 off on lunch or dinner at a british restaurant earlier in the week. and i think schemes that the government introduces to boost particularly the domestic economy, the domestic hospitality sector. these are the sectors most hard—hit by the covid—19 crisis and i do not know the details of this scheme in singapore. but i understand why a lot of people wanted to fly abroad for their holidays this year, but it always seems sensible to me when there is a global pandemic, perhaps this is the year to stay at home, was the domestic tourist industry and the singapore scheme seems like and the singapore scheme seems like a very sensible way of giving people that extra nudge to do just that. a very sensible way of giving people that extra nudge to do just thatm seems like a subsidy of $100
10:49 pm
vouchers for local attractions that adults singapore can purchase six subsidized tickets for attractions in various different things and you said you have to encourage them. talking about the e tactile pouts seen, —— eat out to help out scheme, revoca ble seen, —— eat out to help out scheme, revocable pandemic going on and so may people are affected by this and people are pretty down about what is going on. the answer is yes, i think it isa going on. the answer is yes, i think it is a brilliant idea. certainly the uk, his meal deal, certainly got people going out and it helped restau ra nts a nd people going out and it helped restaurants and pubs, which it intended to. obviously, travelling abroad, i don't think anyone is trying to travel abroad anyway, but state patients look like the future
10:50 pm
for at least the foreseeable future in the idea of the economy with $100 vouchers is the best way of doing it. in the meal deal worked over here, i hope in singapore, this works over there. and i think our government are to be looking at something similar. letters a nd letters and with the new york times and this is focusing on the story wa nt to and this is focusing on the story want to focus on is kanye west because in theory, he is running for the us presidential position. the papers describing how its purse plaques fans, he is not running, he is walking, but he is also asking his supporters to and his employees, rather, to behave themselves. what is he suggesting? as of the selection was bizarre enough trump is the main candidate for the
10:51 pm
republicans against joe biden, is the main candidate for the republicans againstjoe biden, we have ka nye republicans againstjoe biden, we have kanye west running, or as you said, he is walking. and he's getting a lot of attention in the american media and he is getting only about a couple of percentage points in the opinion polls. so he has absolutely no chance of actually winning, but i think the democrats are worried that he might hurt them in particular. he is a black guy, obviously and a lot of black american voters, which is a traditional bedrock of the democratic vote, may be tempted to support his candidacy. i think it is a great shame, really. we do not know fully ka nye a great shame, really. we do not know fully kanye west's mental state, but people do worry that he is not entirely well and i think his celebrity candidacy is getting probably too much attention from people who should know better. his

wife is been speaking about them. we're going to keep it short, but you will be, thank you so much and thank you for watching. a disappointing day for england as australia won the third and final one day international at old trafford by three wickets, sealing a 2—1 series victory. england could not have got off to a worse start, losing two wickets with the first two balls of the match. jason roy and then joe root both dismissed by mitchell starc‘s first ball. some brilliant batting from jonny bairstow did help england recover though, he made 112 as england got to 302. then australia looked to be struggling as they also lost quick wickets, including two forjoe root.
10:53 pm
but centuries for both alex carey and glenn maxwell steered australia to a nervy victory. the winning boundary coming with just two balls to spare. well that match took place in the bio—secure bubble of old trafford, the home of lancashire's county side, which — along with southampton's ageas bowl — hosted all of england's international matches this summer. daniel gidney, the chief executive of lancashire, feels it's imperative that crowds are allowed to return as quickly as possible. for us we kind of except where we are the season, but for us, it is absolutely important for next season that potentially, we have a couple of concerts in the pipeline, and india test match, pack which we missed out on and the noise that they bring friends is amazing. so, i
10:54 pm

fifth overall. expecting them to fight it out for the villagers in the steepest climb of the whole race. but it was an unexpected extra dimension. the colombian lopez cut away from them both. a brilliant 5tage victory but he ran out of road to catch the leaders in the overall standings. if thousand oppressive, then so is this, on the final climb, a decisive blow. the yellowjersey literally disappearing out of sight. they may be as close as anyone gets. at the giro ro5a in italy, stage six came down to a bunch finish. britain's hannah barnes was in contention but had to settle for second place. marianna vos of the netherlands is pretty hard to beat when she's on top form. vos sprinted to take her 28th 5tage win at the giro and her third at this year's race. annemiek van vleuten finished in the main group, she leads by nearly two minutes. and that's all the sport for now. the hot weather over the last few
