summary, the question, the paper asks, "whose side are you on?" just to give the audience one of the subtitles there, "imagine knowing something about this unspeakable crime but keeping quiet because you'd rather sacrifice our city to the thugs then getjustice for 0livia." kate, take us through the weight the liverpool echo presents the story as popular as he pointed out, it's an incredibly arresting front page is popular with the liverpool echo covering a horrific story of a nine—year—old girl. fix, big story of a nine-year-old girl. a big story of a nine-year-old girl. a big sto for story of a nine-year-old girl. a big story for your _ story of a nine-year-old girl. a big story for your watchers, _ story of a nine-year-old girl. a big story for your watchers, a - story for your watchers, a nine—year—old girl named 0livia was shot dead in her own home, as it looks like a gang glenda had gone wrong. a gun man was chasing after another man and olivia's mum opens the door to see what the commotion is all about. they burst into her home, shoot her in the bullet ricochets and kills her daughter,

0livia. truly horrific story. the liverpool echo, the local paper in the area today today asked the readers, "do you know anyone involved? imagine staying silent tonight," and urging anyone with information to come forward to police. that's the same appeal police. that's the same appeal police made earlier today in an emotional press conference, the same appeal we've heard from the prime minister and home secretary today. the bare—bones of the story are truly. the bare-bones of the story are trul . ., , ., truly. david, that question, whose side are you _ truly. david, that question, whose side are you on — truly. david, that question, whose side are you on - _ truly. david, that question, whose side are you on - that's _ truly. david, that question, whose side are you on - that's directed . truly. david, that question, whose| side are you on - that's directed to side are you on — that's directed to just ordinary people in liverpool who may have seen something, and the question we've been asking tonight is, if people aren't coming forward, is, if people aren't coming forward, is there any kind of protection for them if they do want to come forward? , , ., ,~ them if they do want to come forward? , , ., ., ., , forward? yes, it is asking ordinary --eole, forward? yes, it is asking ordinary people. but _ forward? yes, it is asking ordinary people. but it's — forward? yes, it is asking ordinary people, but it's also _ forward? yes, it is asking ordinary people, but it's also asking - forward? yes, it is asking ordinary people, but it's also asking the . people, but it's also asking the criminal— people, but it's also asking the criminal underworld to come forward.

home secretary. as a tragedy for the family this little girl, but it raises broader political points about what's happening with violent crime at the moment. it had been going down and obviously the numbers were down during the pandemic for obvious reasons, but now the pandemic is over and crime is going up pandemic is over and crime is going up again. and i think whoever moves into number ten, this issue of violent crime will be high priority for them. violent crime will be high priority forthem. i violent crime will be high priority for them. , ., ., violent crime will be high priority forthem. , ., ., �* for them. i should say that we've been speaking — for them. i should say that we've been speaking to _ for them. i should say that we've been speaking to people - for them. i should say that we've been speaking to people in - for them. i should say that we've - been speaking to people in liverpool throughout the day here on the bbc to build up a picture of communities there, how they are shocked and outraged. david, is what happened, this murder of a nine—year—old girl, a particular problem to liverpool, or a problem that the uk itself should seek? it’s or a problem that the uk itself should seek?— or a problem that the uk itself should seek? it's a problem, of course,

the prime minister — where do crime rates as a political priority for the government in the wake of the story, might this change this? i think this changes everything. story, might this change this? i i think this changes everything. the to think this changes everything. top priority think this changes everything. iie: top priority for think this changes everything. "iie: top priority for the think this changes everything. i“i2 top priority for the next think this changes everything. ii2 top priority for the next prime minister in the number one issue across the country is the cost—of—living crisis and skyrocketing bills, which i imagine we will talk about later in the programme. but up there, if you polled voters or talked even focus groups, a sense that crime isn't being tackled, a sense that police aren't fulfilling that obligation to people, that is simmering always just beneath the surface. in this murder today, just beneath the surface. in this murdertoday, coming just beneath the surface. in this murder today, coming at the end of weeks where we've seen a spate of horrifying murders, will halt the political agenda. and the prime minister will have three key priorities and things in there and

tray. number one, cost—of—living crisis, numbertwo, tray. number one, cost—of—living crisis, number two, the nhs crisis, and number three, the violent crime crisis affecting our streets.— crisis affecting our streets. david, does this change _ crisis affecting our streets. david, does this change not _ crisis affecting our streets. david, does this change not just - crisis affecting our streets. david, does this change notjust the - crisis affecting our streets. david, does this change not just the way | does this change notjust the way liverpool but england sees crime rising off the political agenda? i hope kate is right, that this changes— hope kate is right, that this changes everything, as she said in her first— changes everything, as she said in her first sentence there. i hope desperately that's right. i hope that the — desperately that's right. i hope that the people do come forward, including — that the people do come forward, including those in the criminal underworld who the merseyside police not least _ underworld who the merseyside police not least will rely on — and they are quite — not least will rely on — and they are quite open about relying. but this is— are quite open about relying. but this is a _ are quite open about relying. but this is a very deep—rooted problem. it this is a very deep—rooted problem. it may— this is a very deep—rooted problem. it may well— this is a very deep—rooted problem. it may well be that someone in the criminal— it may well be that someone in the criminal underworld who was involved in this— criminal underworld who was involved in this will— criminal underworld who was involved in this will say, "that was never my intention, _

"you feared to be losing will to back ukraine." the urge european leaders for support as a cost—of—living

crisis bites. we see two stories colliding here, the big political story of the year and the effect that invasion is having on the things we buy. that invasion is having on the things we buy-— that invasion is having on the things we buy. that invasion is having on the thins we bu . ~ . things we buy. when vladimir putin sent his tanks _ things we buy. when vladimir putin sent his tanks into _ things we buy. when vladimir putin sent his tanks into ukraine - things we buy. when vladimir putin sent his tanks into ukraine and - sent his tanks into ukraine and launched his invasion, we saw this incredible act of solidarity with nato and the west, and the whole world condemning vladimir putin, those sanctions from russia have been crippling for the country and the huge amounts of military and economic aid going to ukraine. but this story starts to speak of something that borisjohnson and liz truss both also warned of, ukraine fatigue. at what point do our allies start saying, "we can't do this any more, it's pushing up prices too much," and at what point does that line start to fracture? it appears the telegraph year has a line about how britain is worrying that it is

starting to fracture now. we can send european diplomats over the capitals over the past week trying to shore up support for ukraine, insisting we need to stand strong with president zelensky and stick to our guns. meanwhile energy prices are going through the roof. we see it here at home, it's happening in europe too. food prices are rocketing. amidst the cost of freedom, the cost of our support in part is yet to be seen if voters and families will still think that's a price worth paying in six months' time. our government is clear it is a price worth paying but clearly families will need help through this crisis if they are going to stand strong. crisis if they are going to stand stronu. ., ., strong. david, would the government ever make the _ strong. david, would the government ever make the case _ strong. david, would the government ever make the case to _ strong. david, would the government ever make the case to the _ strong. david, would the government ever make the case to the people - ever make the case to the people here, and i'm asking a different question from europe, that sacrifices might have to be made in

order to help ukraine?
