primarily jeremy hunt has done better because he's not borisjohnson.sly made a huge difference. i also think it's to the credits of the ratcliff family and her husband has been absolutely dedicated to making sure that there is public awareness. this devastating, heartbreaking story and keeping in the public spotlight. that's obviously had it's part to play as well is that diplomatic efforts from the government. the man who we may not be seeing much of much longer malcolm turnbull. if you think there is politics as bad on chilean politics seems to be even worse. we obviously need to explore the alcohol consumption in australia. yes. we have a russian story spreading discord and lies about vaccines. yes the times has this as well. the story is that bots, russian trolls and the same russian trolls that were spreading misinformation they interviewed the us election they spread misinformation around mmr vaccines. interestingly they use vaccines according to this report, it's a wedge issue and they had troubling information for both sides of the argument tha

jeremy hunt thanking them, but actually, the position here in the uk is significantly different.e european union is clearly not in the mood to impose economic sanctions on this issue of what happened in salisbury. it has relied on diplomatic methods in the past. it could be in a post—brexit world, britain is armed with stronger unilateral teeth and it could and a new sanctions law under consideration mount unilateral action against russia, but that is a long way down the track. it is very much for now. a report from the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse has been sharply critical of the way two private catholic boarding schools were run. it found appalling abuse took place over decades at ampleforth, in north yorkshire, and downside in somerset, and that the schools had both put their reputation ahead of protecting children. the schools have apologised for their failings. our religion editor, martin bashir, reports. downside school, in somerset. like ampleforth, in north yorkshire, described at the inquiry last december as resembling a "harry potter world of beguiling ch

four years ago, the then health secretary, jeremy hunt, said such waits were unacceptable, and called. then there were about 570 waiting that time, now it is more than 3,500. we know, over winter this year, unfortunately, the pressures on the nhs were such that we had to cancel routine operations for a couple of months. what that meant is not that patients didn't need those operations, it meant they had to wait longer for them, and i think that's reflected in the increase in waiting times we're seeing today. with emergency care there's continuing pressure on the nhs. last month saw a record number of people going into a&e units in england. underlying the point that with the nhs, there is no let up, whether it is winter or summer. nhs england said that, in soaring temperatures, there had been an unprecedented summer surge, but others in the health service argued it was part of a long running trend. generally, demand for nhs services is going up and up and up. we are trying to grapple with that extra demand at a point when we have real workforce shortages and where to be frank we have b

jeremy hunt wants to restore an international order based on rules. n that president trump too must share the blame. there are plenty of things we disagree on, but let's not in the fog of all the things we disagree with forget that on 95% of issues we are on exactly the same page as the united states. we share their values, they are our friends, they are our allies. so, the post—boris foreign secretary is using a whole series of meetings, this one with the senate foreign relations committee, to try to ensure britain doesn't lose any ground on this side of the atlantic. james robinson, bbc news, washington. the british director danny boyle will no longer direct the newjames bond film. its producers say he's stepping aside due to — what they've described as — "creative differences". filming is due to begin on the 25th bond later this year. it's expected to be the last time daniel craig will play 007. cricket — and despite a first test century byjos buttler, england are facing defeat against india. they ended the fourth day of the third test at trent brid

foreign secretary jeremy hunt. we spoke, you had been in your position for only about 48 hours. and as you saw, there was so much criticism about how the president was destroying relationships on that trip, with the e.u. and the u.k. is that true? >> known. with this president you get a lot of fireworks, but you have to look at the substance. and after that, measures were taken. the u.k., the u.s., israel and other allies working together and we got those very, very brave people out of syria. we saved their lives and the reason we do that is because we don't agree on everything. we don't agree with the president's position in tariffs on steel and aluminum which is affecting british companies. but fundamentally, we share values and fundamentally we want a world in which democracy, freedom, human rights are respected. we want that for our children and grandchildren going forward. that's why we can work together. >> martha: when we look at the tariffs question, the president basically laid it on the table this summer.

jeremy hunt speaking to our diplomatic correspondent james robbins who joins us now from washington.o more, but when you look at the recent tone of the italians, austrians, the fact the germans are dealing with the russians on gas, he will not get his way? i think that is right, there is no appetite in the rest of the eu, the eu that britain is committed to leave, no appetite to increase sanctions against russia. the italians would like to reduce the present sanctions put in place after russia's annexation of crimea and interference in ukraine so far from wanting to do more, the european union probably wants to do less that is probably whyjeremy hunt the foreign secretary was keen to advocate president trump as a friend britain. important to britain as it leaves the eu. and to advocate him asa leaves the eu. and to advocate him as a defender of the rules —based international order, which will raise eyebrows in europe where donald trump is far from raise eyebrows in europe where donald trump is farfrom being raise eyebrows in europe where donald trump is far from being seen as the def

we here at the same time from dominic raab and jeremy hunt, the foreign secretary this week that it would be damaging for it to have no deal brexit. i here as well from people in brexit that if it came to that they are working on plans for freezing entire brexit process. they would stop the article 50 process or would extended by a year to make sure that written did not leave without a deal and talks would just carry on. some might think please... we need the pressure, we need the pressure of that ticking clock to get politicians to move forward. except, of course, it needs to be a credible threat. it needs to be a credible threat. it needs to be a credible threat if it is to have any pressure. everyone recognises no deal brexit would be catastrophic for the economy. talk to people in business or in ministers privately they accept that. it is only a small proportion of those people on the leeds side who say it is better than a bad deal. most people think even a bad deal is better than no deal. lets watch this space. we do live in interesting times. the sydney morning herald. we think we h

foreign minister jeremy hunt recently said about dealing with that russian threat america expelled sixty russian diplomats and what i'm saying is now they're going a step further and doing sanctions given that this attack happened on european soil he was make sure that what we two matches up to that. there he is saying that we europeans would must do as much as the americans are doing germany has not expelled any russian diplomats it he's implying that the germans and the europeans are weak when it comes to dealing with russia compared to the u.s. or the u.k. that is truth i don't think so germany is engaged for example in the baltic i'm with if mission. there and i think that this is a sign for russia as well that we are present that. germany is increasing the defense budget and we make quite clear that we do our part of burden sharing in the nato and in the you use descent but as always it's good to have you on the show we appreciate your insights always valuable information patrick symmes borgen member of the german one does talk thank you thank you. oh it was fifty years ago today wh
