my concerns about the rising levels of tensions with the immigrations minister earlier this week. it is absolutely vital that we get a grip of this issue, and the boats are stopped from leaving france, and thatis stopped from leaving france, and that is what needs to happen. that is a conversation between rishi sunak, the prime minister, and president macron. earlier our correspondent matt graveling gave us this update from dover. the most important thing to say is that we don't yet know a motive. despite those three bombs, we believe there is a thing like petrol bombs, they were thrown at the centre, which emigrants, and are processed in that centre here in dover. i can tell you as i look at the scene around me, just behind the camera there is an army bomb disposal unit, with a couple of gentlemen in uniform stood next to it. i have the street near the bp

garage where things finish today, we will talk about that in a moment, but we also have a number of police cars, five police cars just down this road, and a couple of uniformed officers on the forecourt as well. as you mentioned, there have been mixed messages coming through here today, but it was about 11:30am today, but it was about 11:30am today that we started getting reports from writers about a man who had gone to the immigration centre and started throwing petrol bombs. we believe of the three he threw only two of them went off, and the fire service were called to put them out, but then he drove here to the petrol station where he took his own life. if you can see over my right shoulder, there are a couple of police officers stood next to a white car with a blue tarpaulin over it, which is the car we believe the gentleman drove here. we still do not know any motive for this, but we have heard from the local mp,

natalie elphicke. i spoke to a couple of moments ago in zoom, and she is very shocked about what has happened to you today, but she also took to social media, saying she is shocked by the incident in dover today, she has spoken to the immigration minister, and our thoughts are with everyone involved. as i say, we do not yet know the motive for this attack today, but natalie elphicke said that she spoke to the immigration minister and said, this is a problem here, we have an immigration crisis, yesterday alone we saw almost 1000 migrants come here to dover, and it is something that needs to be taken seriously. she has already been speaking to the immigration minister this afternoon, we do not have any motive of why this attack took place, but i will leave you briefly with what the home office has told us, and a spokeswoman said we are very aware of an incident at dover, and police are in attendance, but it

would be inappropriate to comment further at this stage. we will be here throughout this afternoon, and will bring you more information as it comes. the bbc has seen an email which raises more questions about suella braverman�*s version of events surrounding her resignation as home secretary just over ten days ago. she has said that she rapidly reported her mistake, after she sent a sensitive document from her private email account. suella braverman was re—appointed to the post by rishi sunak when he became prime minister. here's our political correspondent, tony bonsignore. five days on from her controversial reappointment as home secretary and the questions are mounting. the bbc has seen an email which raises more questions suella braverman has insisted she proactively told officials after realising her mistake. but these latest revelations cast fresh doubt over that claim. we now know the original e—mail was sent atjust before 7:30am
