3:44 pm
what came to light is there were two period it covers is so important. what came to light is there were one micro phones borisjohnson had. one which covered the beginning of the pandemic, which is this phone, in early 2020 up until may 2021. that is the crucial period for the pandemic, when the crucial decisions were being made, and as ministers to decide what to do. were meeting to decide what to do. that phone, there was a security breach, he stopped using it, he started a new phone from may 2021. that phone had been easily accessed. this phone, there was an issue with. the important thing is the whatsapp messages are the ones from that early period between borisjohnson and the senior ministers, the senior health advisers, all of the top team dealing with it, so it is all of those messages being exchanged. that includes rishi sunak, he was the
3:45 pm
chancellor, the finance minister then, the health minister. it will show is what happened at the heart of decision—making at the time. damien, thank you. let's return to the election results, because one of the election results, because one of the interesting things is the roles played by environmental measures in uxbridge. there is little doubt controversial issue cost votes. it's due to expand into outer london — which includes uxbridge, in a few weeks time. so is it the case that people are less likely to support policies aimed at achieving net zero emissions if they will cost them money in the short term? the polling firm ipsos did some research on this. it found that 62% of people
3:46 pm
supported for subsidies for electric vehicles. but this dropped to 34% when they were told they would have to pay more to drive their diesel or electric car. another key net—zero policy — the phasing out of gas powered boilers was supported by 62% of the public. but this fell to 32% when people were told they would have to pay more for an alternative system. live now to london where we can now join gideon skinner, head of political research at the market research company ipsos. thank you forjoining us. this is an interesting strand of what we saw last night. tell us more about what you found with your research. is there a direct correlation with a support for these green policies and how much people pay? you support for these green policies and how much people pay?— support for these green policies and how much people pay? you can see the im act it how much people pay? you can see the impact it has- — how much people pay? you can see the impact it has. you _ how much people pay? you can see the impact it has. you have _ how much people pay? you can see the impact it has. you have to _ how much people pay? you can see the impact it has. you have to remember . impact it has. you have to remember the public is starting from a point of being concerned about the
3:47 pm
environment, broadly think in the costs of not doing anything will outweigh the costs of individual actions. and having support in principle for a number of policies, but the trouble is, in terms of concern about cost of living, there is a general perception green lifestyle choices tend to be more expensive. around half the public tell us although they would like to take action to reduce climate change, they can't afford it. you can see that playing out in support for individual policies where support in principle my beehive, but once we ask people to consider maybe the personal impact, such as on journey times being longer, the personal cost, or the financial costs, if it leads to increased taxes or costs. it does tend to
3:48 pm
bring support down. i taxes or costs. it does tend to bring support down.— taxes or costs. it does tend to bring support down. i think i am riaht in bring support down. i think i am right in saying — bring support down. i think i am right in saying your— bring support down. i think i am right in saying your research - bring support down. i think i am| right in saying your research was done before the real cost of living crisis kicked in, so do we assume that tension you are talking about is even more enhanced now? you do still see it- — is even more enhanced now? you do still see it- as _ is even more enhanced now? you do still see it. as you _ is even more enhanced now? you do still see it. as you say, _ is even more enhanced now? you do still see it. as you say, we _ is even more enhanced now? you do still see it. as you say, we have - still see it. as you say, we have seen a bit of an example in the by—election recently. even more recently, we've seen the general patton continue, so we seen that, for example, britain is more likely to agree on policies which include discounts or financial incentives than they are to support policies that reduce choice, or increase tax. people are split on whether they would be willing to pay more tax to pay for greedier changes. that would be willing to pay more tax to pay for greedier changes.— pay for greedier changes. that is interesting _ pay for greedier changes. that is interesting because _ pay for greedier changes. that is interesting because we - pay for greedier changes. that is interesting because we had - pay for greedier changes. that is interesting because we had the l pay for greedier changes. that is - interesting because we had the same debate in france and germany where
3:49 pm
similar environmental ideas have been brought in and similar criticisms have been made. if that is all the backdrop, how do politicians frame trying to sell those policies that we all know we have to do? it those policies that we all know we have to do?— those policies that we all know we havetodo? ,,_ ., have to do? it is probably not easy. the financial _ have to do? it is probably not easy. the financial aspects _ have to do? it is probably not easy. the financial aspects are _ have to do? it is probably not easy. the financial aspects are still - the financial aspects are still clearly important, and there are some green behaviours which will save money, which is a cell. but you need to start off with being open and transparent with the public about some of the costs potentially, providing financial support, but bringing the public with you by having dialogue. you can talk more broadly. for example, if you talk about the wider benefits of these policies. something like ltms, arguments they will increase safety
3:50 pm
or health can be just as important as the impact on climate change, if not more so. there is a range of different things you can do to bring the public with you, but it won't be easy. the public with you, but it won't be eas . . ., . easy. there we have to leave it. thank you _ easy. there we have to leave it. thank you for— easy. there we have to leave it. thank you for talking _ easy. there we have to leave it. thank you for talking to - easy. there we have to leave it. thank you for talking to us. - let's turn now to manipur in india where a group of women have attacked the home of the main suspect in a high—profile sexual assault case that has triggered widespread protests. the suspect was identified in a video which has been widely shared on social media. it shows two abducted women being paraded naked and assaulted by a mob. the incident happened in may during an outbreak the police have opened a case of gang rape and have arrested four men. they will make arrests soon. the question that has been asked
3:51 pm
widely, everywhere else, is why did it take them so long? 62 days since the complaint was launched by the family of the women who were stripped and paraded by a mob, and the video became viral on social media. that is the big question. now, there is more anger on the streets. yesterday evening, thousands of people from the community, the christian community from which the women belong to, they protested and wanted more action from the government. they have protested beforehand against violence alleged against them. it is all boiling down to blame games, accusations and both parties blaming each other for the continuing ethnic violence in this beautiful indian
