back, its about to have a got enough and amoxicillin as an antibiotic to be able to fight strep antibiotic to be able to fight strep a does it looks like we have, the department of health has said no current supply issues, and therefore its a question of distribution, the it's a question of distribution, the question of getting the stuff into the younger blood streams. i think there's something wider here which is that as a western world, really, are becoming so independent on antibiotics that we will find a widespread use of them to deal with this, but in the short term is probably the only way of saving life, but the problem is that the body has become resilient to add to, and the bugs inside us becomes immune to it and therefore they don't work. we then go back to a world before antibiotics, and that is an enormous issue, and widespread wholesale use in times like this are

causing big problems for the future. and i do think that kate is onto something here which is that where she said we are seeing obvious division by the industrial action, but society, putting the bread in her mouth, but society is suffering bigger activations, and it is. but there are some serious divisions in our society that have very little to do with money per se, and i think access and education about health is an enormous issue and it tends to be divided along various lines, which, you know, we should be addressing more than we do. {lila you know, we should be addressing more than we do.— more than we do. 0k, moving on to the metro's — more than we do. 0k, moving on to the metro's front _ more than we do. 0k, moving on to the metro's front page. _ more than we do. 0k, moving on to the metro's front page. this - more than we do. 0k, moving on to the metro's front page. this is - the metro's front page. this is about the baroness we mentioned at the beginning. their headline, stepping back from the lords to

represent directly and openly and transparently representing the company and its board are your work or your adviser, frankly, lobby everyone in sight but don't lobby the government. don't lobby to spend taxpayer money because it will never ever and well. i think david cameron can tell you that and i'm pretty sure there are certain many stories that are similar to this. it is fraught with problems, so my sympathy isn't with her on this. either way, sympathy isn't with her on this. eitherway, nothing sympathy isn't with her on this. either way, nothing is proven yet, she's answered a leave of absence to clear her name. she is entitled to that end it might well turn out that when she did and how she did it was perfectly acceptable. i am not from it casting anything on her at all and it is alleged at the moment, but nevertheless, the very fact that they are talking about it is not good for the government and it's not good for the government and it's not good for the government and it's not good for her. interestingly, where

labour will make way and i do wish angela rayner would sometimes attack the governments with less hate in her face, the governments with less hate in herface, this the governments with less hate in her face, this contorted the governments with less hate in herface, this contorted rage the governments with less hate in her face, this contorted rage that she comes out with every time she wants to attack is going to become almost a caricature of herself and i wish he didn't. the essence of it is actually... tote wish he didn't. the essence of it is actually- - -— actually... we will leave it there. that's quite _ actually... we will leave it there. that's quite personal _ actually... we will leave it there. that's quite personal and - actually... we will leave it there. l that's quite personal and obviously subjective and your opinion, and just to bring in a statement released by michelle mone's office that has had with immediate effect, baroness mone will be taking a leave of absence in order to clear her name of the allegations that had been unjustly levelled against her. that's it for the papers this hour. my my thinking to both our guests who willjoin us again at 11:30 p:m.. do join us then.

good evening this is your update on sportscenter. we now know the final eight teams who have a chance to win this year's world cup in qatar — after wins today in the final last—16 matches, for portugal and morocco who'll meet each other on saturday. portugal swept aside switzerland in the biggest win yet in the knockout stages — 6—1 — with cristiano ronaldo dropped to the bench. -- bbc —— bbc sportscenter. his replacement, goncalo ramos, stepped up to the plate though, scoring a hat—trick, with a goal in the first half and two in the second. 39—year—old pepe, raphael guerriero and rafael leao topped off a stunning team performance with the other goals. smiles all round at the end, even for ronaldo. six calls to one, the final score. the shock of the knockouts came in the earlier game — with morocco stunning the 2010 winners spain with a sensation penalty shoot out win. the game was goalless after extra time — nothing to separate the teams, with spain within a whisker of snatching it right at the end of the second period. pablo sarabia's volley clipping the outside of the post

so the game went to penalties. and that's where it all went wrong for spain. they failed to convert any — sergio busquets among them. and look at this for confidence — ashraf hakimi — a man born in spain got the winner for morocco. they're into the quarter finals for the first time. this will be a victory that will be celebrated in africa as well as a continent. we are so many who live and breathe the beautiful game, the beautiful game often offers an escape for many people from their day—to—day problems. they live for victories like this. historical moments like this. tonight in africa, in fact, moments like this. tonight in africa, infact, i havejust moments like this. tonight in africa, in fact, i havejust seen moments like this. tonight in africa, in fact, i have just seen a lot of messages, yes, yes, yes, africa has done a text it's also become the fourth african country to reach the quarterfinal at the world cup, which means they stand a chance to try to break the glass ceiling for the continent by becoming the

first team to reach the semifinal. from what we have seen from this team, and beaten so far in this tournament, i am telling you that the belief that africa might finally get that team into the semifinal is rising every minute with morocco playing. ahead of their game against england on saturday. france's olivier giroud has described his team—mate kylian mbappe as the best striker he has ever played with. mbappe and giroud have formed a dangerous partnership up front for the reigning champions with the pair combining for two goals already in three games at this tournament. giroud says the pair work well together . is basically one of the best players i've ever played with. he is amazing and he is still young. that is scary because he can still improve his game. i think we've not seen, we have still not seen the best of him. i hope he's going to come soon and

beat all the records. i know that, you know also. former barcelona and cameroon striker samuel eto'o has apologised for his part in what he described as a "violent altercation" . following a match at the world cup. a video posted online appeared to show the now president of the cameroon football federation, lashing out at a man. it happened after yesterday's game between brazil and south korea. 0n social media, he said "i would like to apologise michael o'neill has agreed to return for a second stint as northern ireland manager. the 53—year—old will take charge for the forthcoming euro 2024 qualifying campaign. he'll succeed ian baraclough who was sacked from the post in october. away from football — and big news from england

rugby union camp today, with eddiejones sacked as head coach, just nine months before the world cup. forwards coach richard cockerill will take charge temporarily — but he'll have work to do after a poor yearfor results . with only five wins from 12 tests this year. butjones, who was recognised as having the highest win ratio of any previous england head coach — will be remembered fondly. i don't think he's a bad coach, you don't become a bad coach overnight. there is certainly a disconnect between the players and the coach. world cup final, to six nations her. he has a mixed bag. england are great players, they have some world—class players and a world—class stadium with facilities. whoever comes in, it may be swanlike steve borthwick, it could be baxterfrom exeter, if they are interested in the job. they have to work on the mental side, being eight games away from the world cup.

they have a lot of pressure on their shoulders and if they want to get back on the world rankings, they have to perform under pressure. the coach has to be able to mentally bring them round. former formula 1 driver romain grosjean will return to racing in europe next year with lamborghini in sports car racing. the frenchman has competed in america's indycar series since escaping from a huge fire, following a crash at the 2020 bahrain grand prix. he'll race at le mans 2024 for lamborghini's elite class "hypercar" entry, run by the iron lynx team. and that's all the sport for now. hello.
