thank you, hazel cheesman, and i should just point out the health secretary sajid javid. he had to say. with flexibility on both sides, with good faith, statecraft, and trust around the negotiating table, we can deal with the remaining issues. my concern is that we have a prime minister who doesn't have those attributes. trust is very important in all of this, and this prime minister does not have the trust, i fear he doesn't have the trust, to negotiate in the way that i actually think would lead to a solution to these problems. we have faced bigger problems than this. mr starmer went on to say that the prime minister was taking a wrecking ball, he said, to international relations. now interestingly, in the commons today, we have had an urgent question from the opposition parties about this very issue, about the very specific point of reports that the government did not ask its senior independent barrister for his view on whether this proposed legislation is illegal, but that he may well have suggested that he thought it could be. for the government, the europe minister

sajid javid per health secretary, more from college green.to be supplied we _ translation: if long range weapons are going to be supplied we will - are going to be supplied we will make certain conclusions which we will use to make strikes at certain targets. our correspondent in ukraine, joe inwood, has been explaining what he beleives the russian president is referring to. well, there's two things, i think, to unpack here — firstly, which systems is he talking about, because remember, there was discussion initially about the americans sending really long—range missile batteries, things that could travel up to 300 kilometers. they, in the end, probably in order to avoid escalating things too much, are opting for something with a range of about 80 kilometers, 50 miles, similar to what the british are announcing today. so it is worth bearing in mind that it could be that president putin was referring to the more long—range systems. but the next question, what would he be proposing? well, of course, it's impossible to be certain what's in the m

here's the health secretary, sajid javid. better for them in terms of outcomes, but it's betterfor the nhs. it will save time and it will save money. so the plan we're publishing today covers everything from digital robots to remote monitoring, the use of artificial intelligence, electronic patient records and the nhs app. everyone remembers the nhs app from the height of the pandemic. some 28 million people already have downloaded it. i think that's something like 60% of adults. so we're going to add new features to that over the coming months and years. you'll be able to book your gp appointment and have messages you exchange with your gp. you'll be able to monitor and manage your hospital appointments. you'll be able to access not just your records but your children's health records. so there's so much more we can do. i've seen great examples of what we can achieve here today at the great 0rmond street, where they're already a step ahead in terms of digital technology. and really the end result of all this is that i want t

the health secretary sajid javid says the government will now carefully consider the recommendations.ke. are you are mute? sorry. i think the idea is completely - i think the idea is completely barking mad. what we are doing is we are infantilised in an entire generation of young adults in this country, they have to be allowed to make up their own minds. when they get to 18 they are legally adults. 15 years ago we supported raising the legal age of sail from 16 to 18. it seemed completely logical to bring tobacco into line with alcohol. at 18, you are an adult, you might be a young and adult and you might be a young and adult and you know the risks of smoking. i have children myself in their 20s and they knew the health risks of smoking because it had been drummed into them and their school friends at an early age. what sort of society do we want to create when choices like this are taken away from us by the government. we have no problem with smoking rates falling, they have been falling for 50 years. but they have fallen through choice, people have learned about the health risks of

here's the health secretary — sajid javid.e able to monitor and manage your hospital appointments. you'll be able to access not just your records but your children's health records. so there's so much more we can do. i've seen great examples of what we can achieve here today at the great ormond street, where they're already a step ahead in terms of digital technology. and really the end result of all this is that i want the values of the nhs from 1948 when it was founded, but we've got to be planning for 2048. time for the weather. we started with a lot of club this morning, a weather front overhead bringing with a lot of club this morning, a weatherfront overhead bringing out breaks of rain. that band of rain has been working its way eastwards and clearing out of the way but it is followed by widespread showers and many of you will see a passing downpour, howeverthere and many of you will see a passing downpour, however there will be places that miss the showers and stay dry. cornwall could be one of those areas because altho

here's what both the heath secretary, sajid javid and the shadow heath secretary, wes streeting toldding inflation. no doubt they will in their upcoming recommendations. i'm not going to pre—empt what they may or may not say, and i would look to that first before the government makes a decision. when i was campaigning around the country in the local elections before may, i will never forget the visits that i did to the food bank in colchester where they were telling me that nurses were turning to the food banks. so, you know, we wait to see what the pay review body says. personally, i would like to see a particular focus on those on the lower pay bands, among the lowest paid workers, not just in the nhs but in social care, because people are really struggling at the moment. we're joined now by sian elliott from the tuc. good elliott from the tuc. morning. first of all, we had two good morning. first of all, we had two politicians there, most importantly the health secretary, saying he did not want to pre—empt the verdict of what that pay recommendation should be, what about you, what
