earlier in the programme, i put all this to the secretary general of the commonwealth of nations, baronesstland, but she said reparations for historical slavery was not a key issue at the summit. actually this chogm has not been dominant and by this issue at all. and as far as i have heard, there has been no request at this stage for an apology or money, and i think one of the things that may people don't understand is when the commonwealth of 56 leaders come to chogm, this is their opportunity to speak together about things that really are mattering and affecting the world. and they can talk about anything they like. as we mentioned, the summit is taking place in samoa, a pacific island nation made up of nine islands with a population ofjust under 220,000 people, and it's low—lying islands like this that could be partly or wholly submerged by rising sea levels. that's why it's one of the commonwealth nations that want the summit to focus more on existing challenges like climate change, but here, too, there is a focus on the historial responsiblity. take a listen to tuvalu's prime minister

thatcher, this was britain's finest hour, and it was baroness thatcher's finest houn was baroness thatcher'sely. so i'm fairly certain there's a there's a smouldering of, of that type of resentment going on. and so they would love to remove that from her legacy. but at the end of the day, what we have to look at is the islanders want to remain british. they want to remain british. they want to remain under british sovereignty. now we gave them that option. they chose it. they had a referendum. we have to abide by the referendum . like abide by the referendum. like every referendum that takes place, we should abide by it. we're told it's a once in a lifetime vote. you know, we've had them with scotland, with brexit and everything else. once you have a once in a lifetime vote, you can't keep going back to these things and renegotiating. we either stick by what we offer people or what are we doing. we're betraying people's votes. >> absolutely. and the key point about the people of the falkland islands wanting to stay under british rule is a key one. and also with the chagos islands, they didn'

we've had a further story that lord ali gave £62,000 to baroness uddin to bail her out after she'd beenes. it after she'd been done for fiddling her expenses . it gets fiddling her expenses. it gets murkier and murkier, doesn't it? >> it is really quite extraordinary. i think it's been some weeks now that this sort of story has been growing. it started with a few appointments to the civil service that were made through an exceptional route, and those appointments were quite often linked to different donations. then it was disclosed that lord ali had not only donated to keir starmer suits and glasses famously, but also received a pass for downing street and day by day the story has grown in different directions. we also found out that somebody from lord ali's office was seconded into labour hq and involved in candidate selection, and today the story has taken a new twist. as you were saying, with an investigation by the lords commissioner into lord alli. i think this the investigation as it seems, we don't know the full facts yet. we won't for some time is not into donations but into dec

worse for lord alli because in the past couple of hours it's emerged that he bailed out a labour baronesse parliamentary expenses scandal. and then just moments later, sir keir starmer announced that he's paid back £6,000 worth of gifts and hospitality. the pm is covering the cost of six taylor swift tickets for days at the races, and a clothing rental agreement with a high end designer favoured by his wife, lady victoria starmer. and to top it all off, we've obviously got angela rayner's ibiza nightclub fiasco. makes sense . fiasco. makes sense. >> we said we would still be friends and bingo, we all called it, didn't we? >> that was a freebie paid for by an american talent management company. mark this is growing and growing and growing and you just sense, don't you, that there might be more to come? >> yes . i there might be more to come? >> yes. i mean, it's been like pulling teeth, patrick, hasn't it? you know, each day passes and some other new bit comes out. keir starmer started to repay some of it. is he going to repay some of it. is he going to repay all of it? and the whole terri

and it gets worse because it emerged last night that he bailed out a labour baroness who was found to he was dispatched by then prime minister tony blair to work on the iraqi election in 2005. he was installed in blair's pick for iraqi leader iyad allawi's office, and he helped allawi to run his election campaign, which, by the way, was a complete disaster because he only won a mere 13.8% of the vote. joining me now is reform uk spokesperson ann widdecombe, and thank you very much. i mean, the latest thing. 30 grand to gain valuable business insight from a bloke who's never run a business and he can have a croissant while you're there. i'm sorry. what's going on at this circus? >> well , that one can be summed >> well, that one can be summed up simply as cash for access. i mean , that's what it comes down to. >> you know, you can talk to the business secretary if you really desperately want to. as long as you pay desperately want to. as long as you pay for the privilege . but, you pay for the privilege. but, you pay for the privilege. but, you know, these these things, there's a very,

he took a completely opposite view to rick prior's and he pointed to baroness louise casey, finding lastw, the met's not accepted that many officers find this to be a quite rotten summary and conclusion. in the investigation that's been charged in that reaction. but rick also pointed to another concern that i think is raising more of a reaction this morning, not just this racism of low expectations , but the effect expectations, but the effect it's having, which is a lot of officers don't feel backed by their leadership. there is, as he says, a crisis in confidence. and so when they get into these sorts of altercations and confrontations with members of the public, he's saying that a lot of them are hesitating. now, the press struggled to speak to police officers. there's no doubt about that. it's gotten more and more difficult to have relationships, to work out how they really feel. and so we rely on people like rick is the federation chair and other representatives to put through what the rank and file think and feel on their day to day experience as bobbies on the beat. and if this is
