conservative government were almost designed to increase descent between different countries and drive other countries and drive other countries away. he said he wants to treat this as a global issue. the proof will be in the pudding as to whether that approach does reduce the number of people making thatjourney across the channel. we of people making that “ourney across the channel.h of people making that “ourney across the channel. we did hear some criticism _ across the channel. we did hear some criticism from _ across the channel. we did hear some criticism from his - some criticism from his political opponents. now that he has spoken, how are they likely to be viewing what he said? �* , said? it'll be the same, perhaps _ said? it'll be the same, perhaps now _ said? it'll be the same, perhaps now with - said? it'll be the same, perhaps now with the l said? it'll be the same, - perhaps now with the harder political edge now that sir keir starmer has levelled those his predecessors. the view of the conservative party is the number one reason that people are willing to make that journey across the channel is because they do not believe evenif because they do not believe even if their asylum claims feel that they will end up being deported from the uk.
11:35 am
they say you therefore need a deterrent and the one they came up deterrent and the one they came up with was the rwanda policy. that wasn't off shoring of people's asylum applications with the possibility of there being able to make a life in the uk, that was off shoring of those people for the remainder of their lives really. the people under that proposal game had successfully claimed asylum they would have done in rwanda rather than the uk. that was cancelled by this new government. the conservatives believe that is a mistake. labour said that was a gimmick and the proof of that is that it was the policy of the government for two years onto three prime ministers and not a single flight ever left for rwanda. single flight ever left for rwanda-— single flight ever left for rwanda. ., ~ , . rwanda. thank you very much, hen . henry. let's look at some other headlines. at least ten people have been killed when a volcano

some internationally important homes —— birds make their homes here this winter. many species have been added to the red list of globally endangered birds, as paul murphy reports. the humber and the wash attract millions of migrating birds. many of them are looking to feed in the mud flats, places which in worms and insects. but rising sea levels mean our muddy estuaries are actually getting smaller. we have got this coastal squeeze. when sea levels rise, you still have mudflats but you end up with a smaller area so the tide goes in and out a shorter distance. the habitats can't move naturally inland. some bird populations are declining sharply. we know this because birds are netted, tagged and monitored
11:41 am
all along the coastline. the latest species on the danger list include the grey plover, the dunlin, the turnstone and the cu rlew sandpiper. they come to the east coast along an internationally important migration route known as the east atlantic flyway. the flyways are like motorways in the sky. birds move along them and stop off at places like the wash, where they are feeding. these are the service stations to feel them up during the winter, it is like a buffet for them. some will move on, some will come back. there are literally millions of these birds passing through the flyways in the wash each year. conservation say saving the best means of providing better habitats, protecting them from industrial development and getting governments to work together more effectively. it needs international collaboration.
11:42 am
if we do things just here, you need that full collaboration right along the flyway. they need to be working together so that existing habitats can be protected but then also we can allow areas to be created as well. changes in bird populations are a key indicatorfor the planet. this is having a big impact on some of these mud—loving species. just a quick update on this, a team of zoo workers are still searching for are reckoned that went on the run with the family of the weekend. she broke free from the compound with three of her sisters on the isle of wight on friday. the others were found over the weekend after staff use drones and tracker dogs. local residents are being asked to check their
