nor have i said there is zero credible evidence against, let alone said this repeatedly. mr lowe had the reform whip suspended on friday and was reported to the police after claims of threatening violence against the party chairman. ukraine may not survive, according to president donald trump, as the white house puts pressure on volodymyr zelenskyy to give up territory to russia. speaking in an interview with fox news today, trump was asked if he felt comfortable that he had walked away from the country by suspending u.s. aid and intelligence sharing with kyiv. >> are you comfortable with that? the fact that you walked away and ukraine may not survive? >> well, it may not survive anyway. but he's a smart guy and he's a tough guy, and he took money out of this country under biden like candy from a baby. it was so easy with that same

attitude. and i just don't think he's grateful. >> mr trump's reply comes in an apparent reference to russia's continuing gains on the battlefield. russia's defence ministry said its forces had recaptured three more settlements in the western kherson region today. meanwhile, former bank of england governor mark carney has won the race to succeed justin trudeau as canada's prime minister and liberal party leader. earlier, the outgoing prime minister, justin trudeau, said canada was facing an existential threat from our neighbour in reference to president donald trump's tariffs and threats to make canada the 51st state. and the bbc pay's senior managers, who are from diverse backgrounds more than those who are not, according to the telegraph newspaper statistics released in the corporation's annual report reveal that lgbt, ethnic minority, disabled and female senior managers earn larger salaries than those not from
