i can't see what it looks chief i mean what it will achieve is presumably twenty three british diplomats will be thrown out of russia some say more than maybe. but so the asians have no choice everyone is saying in the house behind us because she has the evidence that the kremlin ordered an atrocity in england. when that c.b.s. i mean what i have no two stories these are apparently the russian also or she's of oste need with the investigation to be given some samples of the nerve agent and that's been refused now that doesn't seem to me like trying to solve the problem there in this was very clear that there was security considerations as to why she cannot reveal certain bugs the information just as in the public inquiry regarding the atrocity in mayfair in central london against p.m.a. six by the. but how on earth that we got so selves into this position.

that's the first question we should be also we have the evil putin regime is how we got it close as in we have some more know who was exchanged came to live in britain he's living openly under he's not even a house in seoul he's apparently meet british secret service agencies the first thing i say he's had they not yet he briefed you know what he's going on there's all sorts of things that just don't add up but there has to be a consensus in the house of lords in the corridors of power there in the about this that the security services are telling the prime minister that. clearly something has to be done against the largest country on earth. something probably does have to be dark but he only has to be done because reports ourselves into the situation and what we now are proposing to do is to reduce the opportunities for the two countries to work together and we seem to be for. that britain has

a lot of business interests in russia. what would the reaction be here if there presumably would be some russian retaliation if they said well we'll have some sanctions against british business where do we end up with this we don't gamed up in a good place and also we don't yet know what the full facts of this case saw apart from the fact that anyone who tried to poison his obviously don't pretty competent because they failed obviously some ascribe the popularity of that of your putin in russia to being someone who dragged in public to crack down on the all agog says stole all the money from the russian people and you do brazilian back the measures being taken to freeze assets and that's where they're freezing the assets in london and then giving it to the russian people do welcome those policies i think clearly the. seniors in particular would rate for russia and a lot of money went out of the country that belongs to the russian people and one

canary needs support a government which attempts to turn that around i would be more impressed if that had been laid to the british and russian governments cooperating about money of which so huge amount in london. concerned are saying there isn't going to be any go operation whether it be a magnitsky act or whatever in terms of repatriating money that's been stolen from russia. or magnitsky act he's actually cooperation that's not how many people would be for certainly. but you know it just strikes me that we're getting ourselves into more more of a difficult corner and that we really have to have some dialogue and i know that i'm popular particularly in the parliament but in the end you have to talk. to one of the lessons of into. national diplomacy in the end this problem will have

to be unscrambled in the end we will have to talk and that is for the good of both countries so you're not a popular but you live you support to resume him there cancelling the visit of the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov to britain. counts he was he will achieve what will it is jeremy. highly experienced polished diplomat and actually a pretty good foreign minister i mean well it's britain showing that he's not welcome here but ok so what we say you're not welcome to talk if frankly far is the prime minister i'd be saying i hope he will soon come because we need some very frank dialogue about what he's going wrong in the relations between our two countries. and clearly if there was a poison attempt something has gone badly wrong and the russian state is one of the british state needs to get to the bottom of what's happened aside from the

geopolitical context and the atrocity in souls really of is the here on the house of lords international relations committee and you mentioned business how will worse relations with russia affect post breaks in britain is difficult for you to be quite honest we can only speculate at the moment but it's hardly going to make the russian government feel more co-operative towards helping british business experiment in russia and presumably the brits are going to do the same to the russians so it's not going to help. this great open trade agreement that we're searching for. and why why do you think those considerations are not to the fore. because some would say that there is a separation here given that russia trades obviously a great deal with the european union with so much of europe's energy coming from russia. we seem to have got all sold into

a great big stand off position and it doesn't make sense i mean you know to see it i mean germany and gazprom are cooperating quite well in energy supply to europe and i was tend to think that if you talk to people you are going to get further than a few. natures and more predictably immediately said they support resume the white house what do you make of their reaction more temporary today too busy second people where all right i mean even before the signing of the secretary of state but he didn't care do you think that in washington they realize relations with russia are more important than immediate reactions. it so difficult at the moment to call russian american relations you know the this state department easy calles frankly there are a huge number of vacancies there you've had the last year with the secretary of

state and the president basically is each other's throats and it's difficult to see the united states is being a very credible foreign policy player at the moment and there are many in the palace of westminster that we're expecting to resume to attack this station on t.v. surprised or about the fact that she didn't ban this channel in britain and the fact or shut it down very sensible of i mean i've never believed in shutting down the press i had a long long time dealing with turkey i'm sorry to the turkish authorities let them say what they want to say you know have a chance in the open because if you drive it underground you were killed it will still be there but i think it's fundamentally wrong to baron a agent of the free press but of course the statutory regulator of call has been clear that it is listening all the time to what is being said at the dispatched. as to whether they should review the license of the channel. is

that well know you've heard of free speech but. keep saying i'm not doing thank you ok thank you very much now after the break. part rex tillerson returned i very much agree with that service and i wish him well. the firing of his secretary of state rex tillerson because of russia and to resume we speak to award winning author in rolling stone journalist matt taibbi and andrew pierce the daily mail's consulted editor writes off jeremy corbyn even though the latest opinion polls show you the odds on favorite to be britain's next prime minister all of them all coming up to him going underground.

by. the church secret indeed priests accused of sexually abusing children can get away with it quite literally i like to call this the geographic solution so what the bishop needs to do then he finds out that the priest is is a perpetrator is simply moves him to a different spot where the previous standard was not known highest ranks of the catholic church conceal the accused priests from the police and justice system to that of themselves and as the i and then i think you'll hear that it just. gets felt. pretty hot.

welcome back well the stakes could arguably never be higher in what some are already predicting it turned into a nuclear confrontation between britain and russia no wonder some way to argue that labor leader jeremy corwin is seeking to decrease tensions whilst applying stringent sanctions of those who have stolen money from the russian taxpayer but that's not the way some see it from the makers of the most visited english language newspaper website in the world joining me now is andrew pearce consulting editor of the daily mail. welcome back what did you make of tourism is jeremy corbin's response to reason may is a very boring speaker she just doesn't very often get the complete command of the house of commons chamber but i thought statement this week was matter still by her standards she had the commons with her she is a former home secretary so she was able to draw on her experience as being and

responsible for security and terror and the leader of the opposition was shameful it was an embarrassment because the leader of the opposition has a job in my view to be supportive in a time of national crisis to sound at least vaguely patry arctic instead he was peevish turn ish and in failing to condemn the state of russia for what is perceived to be a russian act he showed himself to be according to some of his own side on the wrong side of the argument and it was made worse by the briefing after the statement by his press secretary seamus milner seamus miller's got for he's been to russia at the expense of been literally and he's a great supporter of the state of russia and he elaborated us to why corbin refused to accept that russia is responsible and he peddled out that line used by the russian embassy that britain should actually give over a sample of the nerve agent so the russians can test it oh great idea what are they

going to send over back to the russian embassy and get some scientists to test test it and then they'll say. because it's nothing to do with out you know ridiculous idea russians are saying that is under o.p.c. w. treaty that they have to do that danielle days not twenty four hour deadline but this is going back to the cold war yeah literally a cold war is a cold because in the next twenty four hours britain already probably feeling it there's a cold snap russia's response could literally be to flick off a switch and stop british homes being heated and then lit is that a price worth paying the fact is we don't have enough gas it is running out and we buy some of our gas from russia it's been a matter of great concern in number ten not just under this government under the previous government and putin could do that i suppose but of course russia needs our money too and they need to sell the gas to us because they need the cash to go belle from the first of this show is saying we need partners in

a post rex it world i know the european union has come to help in this time of defacto war with russia presumably both brics that we're not going to have any great trade deals only with russia and its allies maybe even its brics allies in the in the rest of the world we will be it will be announced next week that britain as part of the brics it process can start negotiating trade goes that's a huge change by the european union it's a big win for trees amazing to go shake just once lost going to beijing or together well we will be doing trade deals with china we'll be doing traitors with the united states i suspect we will be doing a trade deal without me putin anytime soon but then trade with russia is huge in any case but the idea was it supposed to grow well with other countries with other countries and will russia no just not russia as well unless of course russia comes to its senses and stops assassinating or trying to assassinate people on british soil loads of people aboard about international politics in this country and don't

really care one way or the other of course they care about the tragedy of a british police officer and so forth. is that way to resume could never have said that the england squad can't go to moscow i think it's not inconceivable that that made position may change so so far the prime minister has said no member the royal family will go prince william is president of the football association in this country a job i imagine he loads because we all know he can't stand for much happier on the polo pitch old chap but he won't be going no officials to be going so i'm sure that to me peter will be devastated that the sports minister tracey crowd would be terrified by that is killer possibles as well but there is talk of the possible that could be the end of two may not go and it would be it people say you can't involve sport politics hang on the british prime ministers were heavily involved in trying to get the world cup to britain but russia won the bid with the help of mr blatter who of course is suspended from international football for corruption. and

is hugely significant and i suspect there's a possibility even now that we may not go to the world cup because. it's going to be tarnished that would mean those in marine you know the actual manager who are just taking on to do commentary that might be a mistake what do you think about the fact that people like him are told not to appear on this channel and indeed m.p.'s from both sides of the house who are so keen to appear all of them some of them are even saying we should be shut down as well i completely disagree with the idea that. we're disintegration network quickly and i was in for britain is a haven for free speech we're just a few hundred yards from the mother of all parliaments and if people don't like russia today or they don't like its output don't watch it but do not close it down off come to my.
