grave robbing europe. plus grave robbing councils. nottingham city council has come under fire for throwing away tributes to the dead, as it claimed their new policy has left families with their trinkets and flowers pred their trinkets and flowers ripped off of their graves. and a new poll shows prince harry and meghan markle are no longer considered royals. is it time that we finally revoked their

thaiwe finallyeg�*kei the! f 7 suggested there has president suggested there has been a retreat of fundamental values in europe. vance also praised munich's hospitality, despite the city reeling from yesterday's car attack that left 30 injured. the 24 year old afghan asylum seeker responsible has now been arrested and is due in court. vance warned that the biggest threat facing the west is not external but the threat from within. >> i worry the most about vis a

vis europe is not russia, it's not china, it's not any other external actor. and what i worry aboutis external actor. and what i worry about is the threat from within. the retreat of europe from some of its most fundamental values. values shared with the united states of america. >> meanwhile, the foreign secretary has said we are some way from a negotiated peace between russia and ukraine. it comes after david lammy met with the us vice president in munich today, where they discussed possibilities of a ukraine peace deal >>i deal >> i was very encouraged in our conversations about ukraine. all of us have this desire to bring this horrendous war to an end. we share the view that there has to be an enduring peace. we recognise that this can't be minsk 3.0. this has to be a serious negotiated peace. and there was an agreement that zelenskyy and the ukrainians have to be part of that

negotiated deal. >> elsewhere, donald trump confirmed he had spoken with the prime minister, sir keir starmer, last night and agreed to meet him perhaps in the next few weeks. the conversation took place at downing

few weeks. the conversation took place we downing few weeks. the conversation took place we onlyning few weeks. the conversation took place we only recently course, we only recently discovered that she even held that position as a linkedin claimed she was an economist there until it was exposed late last year that that was indeed inaccurate. well, the bbc alleges that before entering parliament, reeves was one of the three employees investigated by hbos for using expenses to fund a lifestyle with inappropriate spending on dinners, events, taxis and gifts. among the purchases. handbags, perfume, earrings and wine for colleagues. well, a former colleague told the bbc that reeves and senior managers had a very cavalier attitude regarding the budget. sounds familiar? one example a £400

leaving meal paid for with a company card. and she also spent £152 on a handbag and perfume as a present for her boss using the bank's money, according to the whistleblower's report. now, you might ask, why does this matter? well, because this is all happening. while hbos itself was in crisis. cast your minds back. the government arranged to take over by lloyds, and an emergency taxpayer bailout of £25 billion. £25 billion. i'll leave you to decide whether that sounds if true, like someone you could trust with your hard earned taxpayer cash.

trust with your hard earned taxpay> why did you say it was a decade? >> well, i think you're taking, i think, one. >> now, that profile on linkedin has seen more updates than a tory cabinet reshuffle. talking of tories. conservative leader kemi badenoch was quick to respond. >> keir starmer said that he was bringing in a government of integrity, telling lies and untruths on your cv. expenses fraud, which is what the allegations are, are very serious things and i do think she needs to come out and explain what's going on. >> and if you thought it was all oven >> and if you thought it was all over, think again. in

>> and if you thought it was all over, think againgreat film. >> i have, it's a great film. >> i have, it's a great film. >> so you are aware of the culture that generally exists in banks here and in the us and elsewhere? do you know how much do you know how much money bankers, to this day, not just in 2009, which is 16 years ago when these complaints were filed. and they were never, by the way, no issues were raised with rachel reeves herself. so are you aware of the culture where bankers will reward their staff? because, let's face it, they work them really hard seven days a week and they reward them with massive bonuses with

extremely expensive bottles of champagne. extremely expensive meals. this is taken in that culture. now my question is, why was this complaint that was raised 16 years ago coming to light now? because and i have a theory. i have a i have a theory. i have a i have a theory. listen to my theory. listen to my theory. this has been chancellor for a while. my theory is the banks, the lobbyists of these banks. they have realised that rachel reeves is threatening their interests when it comes to taxing wealth and addressing wealth inequality. because they know. they know that labour wants to tackle wealth inequality and they want to stop whoever is threatening their interests. >> you could argue she was very good at spreading wealth in equality because she shared the money out quite, quite a lot of people. allegedly. allegedly. i mean, sza. >> rachel reeves credibility was shot before this. this should really be. if there were any justice in the political world,

this would be the end of her, regardless of a bank's culture. this the bbc doesn't just make allegations like this on a whim. journalists have done their homework and they've done their homework and they've done their homework very carefully. and they wouldn't be putting this into the public domain unless they were pretty sure of their facts. now she's screwed up the economy, fiddle the fiscal rules to give herself some extra borrowing, and she's still blown that budget. this is clearly a woman that doesn't have any concept of budgeting at all. as oscar wilde and as oscar wilde's lady bracknell would say, a handbag. you know, £152 on a handbag. you know, £152 on a handbag to give to her, and she claims it on expenses, regardless of any culture in the bank. >> now, you know very well they do far worse. they do far worse. >> and wrong. she's not fit to be charged. >> look, steve, obviously these are allegations. you know, the bbc hasn't been able to prove anything. there was no any wrongdoing. so we've got to be careful. i don't want to get anyone in trouble, but we can still look at the cv stuff that's inflated. you know she definitely got that wrong multiple times. that's not once, it's twice. now the bbc have

verified it changed again. there's something to be said about that, surely? >> well there is. i'm going to turn around with stella. i just wish wolf of wall street was actually happening when i was working in banks from 19. >> maybe you didn't do so well. maybe try harder next time, i don't know. >> i did really well. but the culture you're talking about is nonsense. that's why it's in movies. it's nothing to do with reality. yes, people work really hard in the city, and that was an eye opener for me, who came from a socialist left initially when my eyes were open to people working tremendously hard. >> and you've. >> and you've. >> never seen hundreds of pounds being spent on meals in. >> the city? hang on a minute. and yes, i saw people getting enormous bonuses and yes, i saw people paying for meals expensively, but they did so on expenses and they were monitored and checked. >> just like rachel reeves. >> just like rachel reeves. >> no, what we have here is accusations that she spent them outside of the remit that everybody else had to do. if i did it, i would have been fired. and so that's the point at principle here. if these accusations are true, if they are true, then she should be

fired. and why are we looking back at 16 years? in the same way that you look back on all the allegations against politicians of the right, you check them and say, oh, he was a racist. he said this comment there, he made an accusation about the nhs there. paul nuttall was driven out of ukip for accusations he didn't have his his cv. correct. that's the same sort of argument. what you want to do if you want to justify being honest and decent in politics is say, if it's good for the goose, it's good for the ganden for the goose, it's good for the gander. and that's the main point. >> well, well, well, stella, let's just build on that for a second, because let's assume these allegations are true. and let's say it's someone different. it's not rachel reeves just say it's someone else, right? would you expect that person to be fired from their job? that person to be fired from theirjob? if that person to be fired from their job? if they're theirjob? if they're a politician who's in charge of a high office in the country, would you agree with that, that they, you know, if there's an allegation of scandal in expenses, there's an allegation of inflated cv, would you agree that person should step down? >> so, alex, 16 years from now,

you run and you become. >> political scenario. >> political scenario. >> no, no, because the situation is that there was >> no,
