10:41 pm
people who don't have smartphones from getting vaccinated from interacting —— are we? that might feel unjust. we don't have a tech solution for this. if you just have a paper—based solution, as i'm sure you guys do, the car they gave me from thy vaccination at the centre, it's written down that i have two doses. what's the system that can actually work for that, is a much bigger question than the principal questions, whichjoe is talking about, where the public is broadly on that side. we have to sort some of that stuff out already because of travel or other countries will be sorting things out for us. but it's not as easy as just pushing a button and somehow, it's confirmed. i think the reason they're excited about it is they're worried about vaccine uptake among younger people who are

extraordinary loss. and i think the whole of policing really needs to think about that process of how do you hold our police officers, who are such an essential part of a strong and safe society, how do you hold them to a high standard? indeed. it's a question which is yet to be answered. we'll find out a bit more about the previous allegations and if what actions were taken against wayne cousins. they've been certain notices. more broadly, joe, it really has highlighted again the extent of violence towards women and the problem in terms of how that's reacted when cases of this rise in. i think the question of culture is a really— i think the question of culture is a really important one. it's very
