yeah, very striking reading what we have been told from downing street's side of the story about this and donald trump in the last couple of hours, because there is a huge gap between their instincts on the iran nuclear deal. we saw earlier in the week, president trump withdrew the united states from the deal. the deal was aimed, when it was signed three years ago, to ensure that iran stops developing nuclear weapons in return for sanctions being lifted. america is in the business of imposing sanctions. the other signatories to the deal, including the uk, argue that mr trump is wrong and that the deal should remain in place. the big question is whether mr trump's withdraw from it effectively means the whole thing is over. i will bring you the words from downing street, published in the last few minutes, about the telephone call. we are told, "the prime minister reiterated the government's position on the iran nuclear deal, noting that we and our european partners remain firmly committed to ensuring the deal is upheld as the best way of preventing iran from developing a nuclear weapons

downing street's view on all of this is itan downing street's view on all of this is it an issue ford northern ireland only. they say they're focused on getting the stormont executive up and running again and they want to avoid any impression of direct rule. i think the feeling is that this is not the time for politicians here to be dictating policy there. but what is clear is that there are many westminster m ps clear is that there are many westminster mps who believe passionately that women in northern ireland should have the same rights, the same choices as women in the rest of the uk. and i think their support for that among labour mps, among liberal democrat mps, but also significantly among conservative mps and some senior conservative mps also like they're williston who is the chair of the health select committee. —— sarah. well, my view is that it's not right that women in northern ireland can't be able to access the same rights as women in the rest of the united kingdom. and if an amendment is allowed by the speaker, during the domestic violence bill that has come to parliam

and in the last half hour, a source in downing street has told us that number ten believes any reformthe important reasons we need a functioning executive back up and running", the source said. well, joining me now from exeter is the conservative chair of the health select committee, sarah wollaston. good afternoon. the source in downing street highlights an important fact, this should be a decision for the executive. of course who would all like to see the stormont assembly back up and running. it's now an acceptable that women in northern ireland will be in the only part of the united kingdom not to have the same human rights as women elsewhere. and also things moved have on in the republic of ireland too, so it's absolutely time for us to change this. if the stormont assembly was in place, that would be the first port of call, but it isn't. and i think if an amendment is allowed by the speaker to the domestic violence bill, to allow women to have the same rights as the rest of the united kingdom, i will certainly be voting for it, and it will be likely that will be a free vote. and
