arrested after a suspected chemical attack as two police officers have been rushed to hospital . that's according to hospital. that's according to the sun newspaper. the incident unfolded at surbiton station, near kingston upon thames in south—west london, at around 4:20 pm. today. we will bring you more as we get it. now ukraine will ask nato for membership next week. that's according to a letter seen by reuters news agency. the letter reflects ukraine's renewed push to secure an invitation to join nato, which is part of a victory plan outlined last month by president volodymyr zelenskyy to end the war triggered by russia's 2022 invasion. meanwhile, in another interview tonight, president zelenskyy said that he was willing to cede territory to russia to end the war. the ukrainian president said for the first time that his country could give up land temporarily in exchange for a nato umbrella over the territory. ukraine still holds. the met police has apologised to

victims of the westminster so—called honeytrap scandal, after it accidentally sent an email which named all of them. the force also said it was referring itself to data watchdog the information commissioner, over the breach. police launched a probe after flirtatious messages were sent by someone calling themselves charlie or abi to as many as 20 people, including mps , staffers people, including mps, staffers and political journalists . and and political journalists. and gb news understands that number 10 was not aware of the full facts about transport secretary louise hay's past convictions , louise hay's past convictions, and they were not known until reports broke last night. it's also understood the 2014 conviction was not declared in hay's transparency disclosures when she became transport secretary on the 5th of july. however, these reports are strongly disputed by those close to hay. downing street has named justice minister heidi alexander as her replacement. louise hay's cabinet resignation came after

it emerged last night she was convicted of a criminal offence before she was an mp. she admitted to falsely reporting a stolen work phone in 2013, calling it a mistake, and insists she gained nothing from the incident . those are the the incident. those are the latest gb news headlines. now it's back to ben for the very latest gb news direct to your smartphone, sign up to news alerts by scanning the qr code, or go to gb news dot com. >> forward slash alerts . >> forward slash alerts. >> forward slash alerts. >> good evening. hope you're well. did sir keir starmer knowingly let someone with a criminal conviction into government while preaching to the nation about ethics? the resignation of his transport secretary, louise haigh, isn't the end of the matter. let me tell you that. and the pm is now under pressure to give the full facts. shadow cabinet office minister alex burghart has tonight demanded the pm come clean about when he first

learned of haig's historic conviction for fraud , and he conviction for fraud, and he accused sir keir of ignoring labour's own promise of running a squeaky clean government full of ethics and transparency. louise haigh admitted she reported her work phone stolen in 2013. only later to find it at home, and she described this as a genuine mistake and said she pled guilty to fraud in 2014 on the advice of her solicitor. and she claims starmer was made aware of her conviction when she was given a job on the opposition frontbench. here's what the pm needs to answer tonight, or at least over the weekend. is miss haigh correct when she says the pm knew all along and if so, if he didn't see louise hague's conviction as a disqualifying factor before her appointment to the cabinet in july, why has it suddenly become one today? this is important because in 2022, keir starmer himself told the commons that boris johnson couldn't possibly be a lawmaker and a law breaker and he had to go. >> the value symbolised by the

door of number 10 must be restored. the game is up. you cannot be a law maker and a law breaker. only then can the government function again. only then can the rot be carved out. only then can we restore the dignity of that great office and the democracy that it represents . the democracy that it represents. >> and by the way, i know she's gone now, but what a raging hypocrite louise haigh was, too. >> this has been such a sorry saga for boris johnson and for our country . first, he saga for boris johnson and for our country. first, he claimed that no parties took place at all in downing street. then he claimed that all the rules were followed. now we know that that was a complete lie. our position hasn't changed. this is a matter of trust and leadership. he has clearly repeatedly lied to the house of commons and to the british people, and the only question he should now answer is when he will resign. >> heh. okay, well, for the record, i don't think louise hay should have ever been forced to

resign at all, but she falls victim to the very low bar she and her party set during the hounding of boris johnson during partygate for essentially eating crusty men's sandwiches. you set the silly standard now you're out of a job. but the focus now is on the prime minister. his government has been fighting so much sleaze, cronyism and scandal in its first six months that they make the tories look like amateurs . arsenal tickets. like amateurs. arsenal tickets. taylor swift tickets two and a half grand spectacles, a wardrobe for his wife, multi—million pound penthouses stuffing the civil service with labour donors and aides. the chancellor accused of lying on her cv a row with farmers dunking on pensioners. it goes on and on. so the big question is did the prime minister cover up the truth about louise hay? and if so, what else is he covering up behind the curtains of number 10? before getting reaction from my panel tonight, let's get the latest from this storm surrounding louise hay and indeed sir keir starmer from our political editor. >> christopher hope election is nearly five months ago, and

already we have our first resignation from the cabinet of keir starmer's government. louise hay, the transport secretary, has stood down, resigned, replaced by heidi alexander. louise hay has gone because reports emerged that she had pled guilty to making a false report to police about a stolen mobile phone that she later discovered . but the later discovered. but the question right now in westminster is what did keir starmer know about this conviction? according to louise hague, he was told when she entered the shadow cabinet in 2020. fast forward to july this yeah 2020. fast forward to july this year. she becomes the transport secretary. what did year. she becomes the transport secretary.
