australia's policy was introduced to stop asylum seekers traveling to australia by bart. however, serious policy began in 2012 and it wasn't until 2014 that both arrivals to australia began to decrease. so that's 2 years after the policy commenced. even then there was still asylum seekers traveling to australia by boat in 2017, 201820192020. so the policy didn't not achieve what it sought out to do. and finally, a serious policy was very expensive. the $3127.00 asylum se has to be housed offshore. it cost destroy, and tax pay is an average of $1000000000.00 per year. and in some years, 1500000000 dollars. my how much has the anti migrant and anti refugee sentiment grown? m u k. the last few years and why is this happening now? and yeah, i think it's really important to think about how we got here. and i think is the short term in the longer term picture. and we need to look at both of those things . so if we look at what happens is the conservatives have come in to power. they really honed in on anti immigration and anti asylum sentiment. so a very good example of this is during the high, if the pandemic critique to tell her british home secretary was essentially whipping up hysteria about people crossing the channel. so whilst we were being told that our common humanity was all that really

australia. the biggest concern is that australia and recent years has become hysterical about china. now this became a key narrative and domestic politics. and australia now is in the middle of too close to call national elections. additionally, because the solomons are only 2000 kilometers from the queen's on coast. and because australia has pursued an aggressive stance against china, the august canberra worries and might soon have a chinese naval base. that's too close for comfort. china has extensive relations with many countries in australia, has been a lifeline of development and investment support for several and has been the 1st or among the 1st to respond in times of crises as we saw earlier this year with the masses of volcanic eruption. i talked to solomon likes the investment from china and appears to be enjoying seeing in australia, minister make an emergency run to visit them to appeal against this deal with china . but ultimately, if we talk about aggression, then australia, building a nuclear force in the south pacific is incredibly aggressive into stabilizing for the smaller countries that have long paid a price for being out of the way. but may also pay a bigger price for being too close to escape. the sort of madness they were wants to move to. boris johnson should resign over the party gates scandal

partnerships in a similar way, and by the weight the same partnerships that we used to put in place the dublin regulations to return it admissible asylum seekers to eu member states and of course she is on the record multiple times attacking the government, calling for a placement to be put in place and now she is attacking the government for using the powers that only a few weeks ago she said could still be used if we had not left the eu. what we have seen today from the party opposite and the honourable lady is quite frankly their absolute inability to understand this issue and the difference between illegal migration and illegal migration. they should be honest about their policies, their position is to stand for open borders and uncontrolled immigration and if i may go even further, she speaks about the policy being unworkable and extortionate but if the policy is unworkable it can't then be extortionate because we will be making payments based on delivery and this is the point about our scheme, there is nothing that she has said today that actually puts alternative forward and that actually seeks to deal with the issue of people trafficking, deaths in the english channel and importantly the labour party has shown it has no idea today how to stop people smuggling.— shown it has no idea today how to stop people smuggling. theresa may. with resect stop people

frequently to say please don't remove some of the asylum seekers but also foreign national offenders, people who have no legal basis to remain in our country, but i would be happy to meet with the

was unacceptable and it does a great disservice not just to this government and officials that have worked for over nine months on this partnership but also to our counterparts in the country of rwanda that have worked with many of us, that are working collectively together to tackle issues of illegal migration and some counterparts in the eu, as well. if i may, to answer some very specific points, it is shameful that he is playing party political games on that point, just like the party opposite, no, absolutely not. if he will let me finish the question. the other point, rwanda actually is home to resettling over 130,000 refugees and they have done that successfully and they have done that successfully and if i make about your comments are a slur to the successful efforts of our partners in rwanda. rwanda is a safe and secure country with respect for the rule of law. absolutely not, i actually think members should listen to the undercurrent of their tone towards a country like rwanda which has done a great deal to provide safety and refuge and security and a new life for many refugees around the world. he asked about the approach that will be taken and everyone considered for relocation will be screened and interviewed and have access to legal advice and decisions are made on a case—by—case basis and nobody will be removed if it is unsafe or inappropriate for them at all. i would like to conclude by making another point as well because he is not the first honourable member to mention legal obligations and the legalities of this. rwanda like us is beholden to the same legal obligations as the uk on human rights. i want to make the point again, ithink rights. i want to make the point again, i think there is something really quite unpleasant

wants to be less hysterical and listen she might learn something about the new plan for immigration. it's important to reflect on a number of points. the answer is yes because we do know one people in hotel accommodation. and it's a cheap point for the opposition benches to make. but during the pandemic we had to use hotel accommodation to keep people protected, that was a fact. and on decision making, yes, of course, and on decision making, if you choose to listen, that is what the new plan is about in terms of speeding up decision—making and processing, with this legislation and

immigration, which her party and members on the opposite benches continuously voted against, have no plan to deal with these important and difficult issues and, at the same time, will bring in the

but there is little compassion when they do not have the backbone to actually make difficult decisions when it comes to the protection of human life and, if i may, for months and months and months, they talk about saving lives and lost lives and now that there is and lost lives and now that there is a prospect for action to save lives had to go after the evil people smugglers, they wring their

if you arejustjoining us, let me run you arejustjoining us, let me run you through what we were watching their comet was the home secretary taking a number of questions from mps relating to government plans to send asylum seekers to rwanda, the home secretary saying it is human criminals profiting from boats that cross the channel and she said that is placing unsustainable pressure on communities and public services in the uk. and she said the access to the uk. and she said the access to the uk. and she said the access to the uk asylum system should be based on need and not simply an ability to pay people smugglers. so she was hailing that agreement with rwanda announced last week and she says it deals a major blow to people smuggling and called it the first comprehensive overhaul of the uk immigration system. but you will have got a sense that some of the criticism and controversy that this announcement has caused and we also heard from yvette cooper, calling it a disgraceful attempt to distract from the prime minister's lor make —— lawbreaking and said they were unethical and extortionate. there are a lot of questions about the ethics, legalities, practicalities and cost, the government said it will cost £120 million but yvette cooper saying that does not even cover the transfer of anyone to rwanda so many questions about how many people this would cover, where that money will come from, and yvette cooper calling on the government to work with france to stop the boats setting off on the first place, so a lot of response and criticism of that policy. we also heard from the former prime minister asking about some of the logistics about how this would work but the home secretary declining to respond and said that information would remain secret. they do not want people smugglers to get hold of that sort of information. that debate will continue,. rohini kahrs is from the race equality think tank the runnymede trust and shejoins me now. thank you for standing by for us. and i hope you are able to hear it as we were and i want to first of all what you make of what you have heard today. a lot of criticism over the weekend, but what have you made from that response from priti patel this afternoon? this from that response from priti patel this afternoon?— from that response from priti patel this afternoon? this is a despicable oli and this afternoon?

policy and a cruel one and it is not| policy and a cruel one and it is not in britain's tradition to outsource refugees to a country which itself is economically vulnerable. the home secretary herselfjust is economically vulnerable. the home secretary herself just said is economically vulnerable. the home secretary herselfjust said you can't put a price on saving human lives and the best way to stop people smugglers as i'm sure we all want to do is to create safe routes for those trying to reach the uk so they can come here safely and not have to rely on dangerous crossings. banishing refugees to rwanda will not say —— will not solve this. there are also huge conserves ongoing around the deep prioritisation of certain refugees in flavour of those fleeing ukraine and we expect to see the same compassion shown to those seeking refuge from ukraine to there is also feeling equally devastating conflicts in countries such as afghanistan and syria. so with this plan we are expecting to see this inconsistency play out in a racialised way, in fact. the government _ racialised way, in fact. the government says - racialised way, in fact. the government says that - racialised way, in fact. the government says that something needs to be done, something to tackle the illegal people smuggling across the channel, and priti patel has hit back at those criticising these plans, saying they do not have an alternative, there is no other solution they are offering, what is the other solution? the solution they are offering, what is the other solution?— solution they are offering, what is the other solution? the solution is siml to the other solution? the solution is simply to create — the other solution? the solution is simply to create safe _ the other solution? the solution is simply to create safe routes - the other solution? the solution is simply to create safe routes for i simply to create safe routes for people trying to reach the uk. we have seen that opened up to those currently fleeing ukraine, they are being offered safe and legal routes to reach the uk which includes free eurostar transport, flights taking them to countries where they can seek refuge, and britain is an island so there are implications there as to how people can reach britain. we are currently not creating safe routes for those feeling conflicts to reach the uk so it's very simple, create safe routes for people trying to reach the uk. and the thing that most people will agree on is that people smuggling across the channel and the continent is abhorrent, and that needs to stop. the government says this is one way of doing it but as we heard there the shadow home secretary saying the problem is that the government has totally failed to clamp down on criminal gangs and they should be engaging with them on they should be engaging with them on the french side of the english channel. how are we not able to do that? ., , channel. how are we not able to do that? . , ., ., , ,

in the comments, this debate will run and run, but we are grateful for your time this afternoon. we are waiting for the prime minister who is due to stand up in the next few minutes in the comments. the commons speaker, sir lindsay hoyle, has approved an application from opposition mps allowing them to table a motion for debate on thursday about whether the prime minister misled parliament over assurances covid rules were followed in downing street. the prime minister has previously claimed that no rules were broken at events in number ten when strict lockdown measures were in place. he's due to stand up in the commons for the first time since being fined at about 4:30pm. there's expected to be fierce questioning from opposition parties about whether he misled parliament. the labour leader, sir keir starmer, has accused the prime minister of using the ukraine conflict as a shield to keep hisjob. our political correspondent, nick eardley, joins us now. i know it is a busy afternoon down there in westminster. we have had an apology from the prime minister before, he will apologise again today, but what has changed today? he has been fined, is the simple answer. and this is the first time he will face pressure from opposition mps to explain why he broke the rules and only for the metropolitan police to say that was not true and issue fines and one of those to the prime minister, wanted the chancellor and want to boris johnson's y. we will hear from two key criticisms. one is that the prime minister should resign because he broke the very covid lossy put into place, the other that you talked aboutjust into place, the other that you talked about just there into place, the other that you talked aboutjust there is that suggestion that borisjohnson misled parliament when he said to mps that the rules had been followed. that matters because under the ministerial code, if a minister knowingly mislead parliament, they are expected to resign. i don't think borisjohnson will accept he misled parliament, he will say he always spoke in good faith and was acting on the information he had been given at the time privately, some of his allies are blaming his former aides in number 10 and they say they have gone, so we have moved on to a new chapter. an interesting question, though, and i wonder if borisjohnson will be asked this, is whether he now accepts he broke the rules because chatting to some of his allies this morning, they are still basically making excuses and saying he was in the building because it is where he works, it is a unique place, and he popped into a room not knowing that he had broken the rules, that is his rationale, so i suspect some opposition mps will want to know whether he now accepts that he broke the rules and the law as the metropolitan police decided. but how many times it was dirty and talked about this story? i have lost count. this is not the crescendo today, this will keep going because on thursday now there will be a debate on whether there should be an investigation by a powerful committee in parliament into whether borisjohnson committee in parliament into whether boris johnson told committee in parliament into whether borisjohnson told mps the truth, then there could be more fines down then there could be more fines down the line, then there is another report expected from the senior civil servant sue gray who was looking into these parties, so this just rolls and rolls and rolls, all the time creating uncomfortable headlines for the prime minister, but one thing it has done is meant that some of the steam in the rebellion conservative party has gone, and that means at the moment it doesn't look like there will be a mass rebellion of tory mps. jkla it doesn't look like there will be a mass rebellion of tory mps. no mass rebellion but — mass rebellion of tory mps. no mass rebellion but it _ mass rebellion of tory mps. no mass rebellion but it rolls _ mass rebellion of tory mps.

lot of mps we have tried to get in touch with to find out what they think who have not responded. i think who have not responded. i think some are holding their breath to see what happens, we may hear from a couple of them for the first time in response to this statement, there are a few critics of boris johnson who like to wait until there is a moment in the commons before they reveal their thoughts, and i wonder if we might hear from them over the next hour potentially with some significant interventions, but the broader question is whether there are enough tory mps to trigger a no—confidence vote in the prime minister, at the moment the answer is no, the question is whether they get pressure from their constituents and whether they start to see electoral pressure to to change their minds, and those local elections will be a potential test of boris johnson's elections will be a potential test of borisjohnson's popularity, there are a few other things that are bound to impact on the like constituency surgeries and things like that. the tone of boris johnson's apology, how he explains the comments he made before versus the comments he made before versus the comments he is making now, the discrepancy between them, all of that will be crucial, but in terms of the political temperature here, opposition parties are furious, they want the prime minister to stand down. some tory mps think the same. many are keeping quiet at the moment, waiting to see what happens, saying they do not want to make their minds up until we have heard all the facts, but there is a big chunk of the tory party who quite frankly have moved on and who want to concentrate on things like ukraine and the cost of living crisis and at the moment that probably means that

the launch of a large—scale offensive in its eastern donbas region. the move marks a new phase in the conflict. ukraine says russia is continuing to move military equipment into the area from russian territory, and the governor of the luhansk region has confirmed that russian troops have taken control of the city of kreminna. president volodymr zelensky has pledged to defend the whole of his country, and the governor of donetsk told me that they will defend every inch of their land and never live under russian occupation. ukraine is believed to have over 40,000 soldiers in the donbas, many of whom have spent years fighting against russian—backed separatists forces in the region. our correspondent, danjohnson, is in lviv and sent us this report. russian firepower on display in these pictures released by the defence ministry and in the skies over ukraine. it says missiles and artillery hit over 1,200 targets last night ahead of a new surge to push its forces forward across the east of the country. in this operation, we will continue. it is beginning, i mean, another stage of this operation is beginning, and i'm sure this will be a very important moment of this entire special operation. pro—russian leaders in donetsk say special forces are storming mariupol�*s steelworks, where the last ukrainian soldiers were holding out. the renewed advance along the eastern edge has been anticipated for weeks and the ukrainians say they are ready. we can assess now that the russian troops have begun the battle for donbas for which they have been preparing for a long time. a very large part of the russian army is now concentrated on this offensive. no matter how many of the russian troops are driven there, we will be fighting, we will defend ourselves. more soldiers are getting ready to join the battle. we were invited to film these volunteers training in the west of ukraine, preparing to head east and hold back the russians. they will get hell, they will get hell. | they came into our land, j to try to invade our land, tried to horrify our people, and now we're just - raining hellfire on them. their instructor told me their lack of experience is made up for in commitment to defend every inch of their country. for some of these people, i they have never had a firearm in their hands in their lifetime. some of them are bankers, bakers, i painters, and right now we're making fighters out of them. these people are performing really amazing skills. - are they up to it? yeah, they are. in two weeks, from a person who never held a firearm - in their arms, they became fighters. there is no shortage of willing volunteers, and these recruits wanted to show us how well prepared they are, how well—equipped they are and how determined they are. this video claims to show ukrainian artillery strikes taking out russian weaponry, but there are still likely to be fierce battles ahead. people have been warned to get away from front lines but, as the fighting moves, it gets harder to work out where is safe. earlier, i spoke with lieutenant colonel pavlo khazan, an officer in the ukrainian territorial defence, responsible for cyber security. i asked him for his assessment of how the situation in ukraine has changed over the past 24 hours. the situation is changing every time, always we are checking everything, and we are ready for any scenarios. of course, as you might know, there were some missiles in my region. of course, we don't know exactly what russian troops will do in the next hour or in the next days. but the situation has changed and we also know about... it's a really big threat to several cities in donetsk as well. now it's the main cities of the luhansk region. that is why we are ready here in my region, dnipro, as well as in kharkiv, because our responsibility is also kharkiv, luhansk, donetsk regions. i want to come onto cyber security in just a moment. of course, the focus right now is on the military bombardment but i also know cyber security is also a real threat. give me a sense of how forces are preparing in those eastern regions, given that you do not know what's coming in the coming hours and days. of course, i cannot share a lot of information with you. but from the beginning of the war in 2014, we increased our capacity very much. this is also because of big support of our allies and because of high levels of education and the professionalism of our officers. moreover, now we mobilised many people, many civilians, civilian engineers, who have given us big support and a big input into the cyber part of the armed forces of ukraine. and it is telling that we are able to talk to you now live via the internet from a war zone. one would imagine one of russia's primary objectives is to cut you off in terms of connection to the outside world. how are you making sure that your cyber networks, your internet access, is strong enough to survive the attacks that you are facing? as i said, we are thinking and we are prepared for different scenarios. we are also preparing for these scenarios and we are ready and we have equipment to do our best. also, with jamming and some other threats which can be caused by russians. we know they have very high leveljamming equipment. they are doing it and affecting us, yes. give me a sense as to what their primary target is as far as cyber attacks are concerned. many people will see those images of bombs and missiles and fighting in the streets, they may forget there is an entirely separate war going on in the cyberspace. so what are the targets as far as cyber attacks are concerned? of course, they are targeting civilians, and they would like to destroy as much as possible of the civilian infrastructure and to kill as many as possible. of course, they are also targeting on some communications infrastructure, and they are doing it, yes. that is why we should be prepared for different kinds of scenarios in this case. that was lieutenant colonel pavlo khazan, an officer in the ukrainian territorial defence, responsible for cyber security. we are still waiting for the prime minister to begin we are still waiting for the prime ministerto begin in we are still waiting for the prime minister to begin in the house of commons and we will have that shortly. britain's four biggest energy suppliers say the government needs to take drastic action to ensure that millions of households don't fall into fuel poverty in the coming months. speaking to mp5, the bosses of e—on, edf, centrica and scottish power say they're already seeing the effect of an unprecedented rise in bills, with customers on pre—paid meters missing their payments in particular. it comes as the energy regulator, 0fgem, announced it's investigating claims that energy companies are increasing payments by more than necessary and directing customers to tariffs that are not in their interests. the chief operating officer of scottish power said the size and scale of the problem has gone beyond what he and the industry can deal with. i'm hugely concerned for people, massively concerned, you know, and, for anyone out there, there's so many people are going to struggle, really, really struggle with this issue and we're seeing the start of that with our customers last week. we'd set up a new line for people to contact us. we had 8,000 calls last week alone for people coming through on the number with concerns about ability to pay. and that was just in the first month, the first few weeks, and we haven't seen it come through debt numbers yet. so i can't give you an increase in debt. it's too early for that. but a massive concern from people, a huge amount of anxiety from people on the phones about what they're going to do and the concern they face and a real, real worry from them. a lot of people for the first time facing this issue, and they've never been in this position before. all we're doing with people just now is to encourage them to talk to us, to speak to us, because that's the way we can help them. and that's what we need people to do is to keep contacting us. my biggest concern is actually, when we get to october, particularly around the most vulnerable and the poorest. and that tends to match with the people on a pre—payment metre because, actually, during the summer, their consumption will go down so their bills will be more manageable. come october, that's going to get horrific, truly horrific. and it's got to a stage now where i honestly believe the size and scale of this is beyond what i can deal with. it's beyond what i think this industry can deal with, and i think it needs a massive shift, significant shift, in the government policy and approach towards us. one of the bosses at scottishpower discussing the rise in bills. the latest research from the international monetary fund, released in the past half hour, warns that the war in ukraine will severely set back the global economic recovery from the covid pandemic. i asked our economics correspondent, andy verity, what the imf is saying about the impact of the war in ukraine on the global economy. they're talking a lot about supply constraints which we had even before the war began. post—pandemic, the global economy of the world was reopening and there was a huge surge in demand. the supply was struggling to catch up with demand, so you had price rises. so that was already happening. the hope back injanuary was that this would all settle down. of course, that was before the invasion of ukraine. now you have further supply issues, particularly with global community, commodities, notjust oil and gas. also, russia is a big exporter of metals. then ukraine is a big exporter of wheat and corn, so that is affecting food prices. all of that is affecting cost pressures on consumers, and this is particularly true in the uk. injanuary, the government in the uk was able to say we are going to be the fastest—growing economy in the g7. in fact, next year, they're projecting we will be the slowest, growing atjust1.2%. the reasons given for that is because the cost pressure on consumers in the uk will be worse than other countries and they will also have to raise interest rates faster, meaning there will be less good conditions for investment, it's less easy to borrow money. all of that will contribute to a general slowing down. it's easy to talk about a perfect storm, but it seems to be that you have got two problems. one is input prices going up, supply chain disruption. at the same time, consumers are saying they have less money in their pockets and they are just not going to go out and buy. taken together, that can have a huge knock—on effect, can't it? we normally talk about inflation as a way of dampening down the overheated economy. but actually that effect is mimicked and amplified if you look at what's happening to energy prices. if you're already having money from your disposable income to pay for higher energy bills taken away, it is much the same effect as if your interest rates were going up. that will slow down economic activity elsewhere. you have much less left over for other things. that is particularly going to have an effect in the uk. andy verity, our economics correspondent there. the british chambers of commerce are calling for free or low—cost covid—19 testing kits to be given to companies to help them cope with the large numbers of staff catching the virus. the business group says as many as three quarters of employers reported workers off sick with coronavirus in the last four weeks. covid cases peaked last month, with about 5 million people infected at the end of march, but now the onus is on companies themselves to try to keep staff safe. our consumer affairs correspondent, colletta smith, reports from liverpool. business has been booming here for the last couple of years, with these home cooking spice kits taking off. but that means extra pressure for the boss to keep orders flowing while keeping staff safe. so there's 15 of us in total and a number of cases in the warehouse, enough for us to, as i said, shut down production for a week or two weeks. figures from the ons show that the omicron peak for factory floor workers was injanuary but, for office—based staff, the peak has been within recent weeks. i think it is pretty much spot—on, that data, actually. that is what we have found. our kind of manual workers in the unit have had it through the end of last year or the year before and then coming up to january, and then we have had instances of the management team getting it very much in the last sort of eight weeks. yeah, we have got plenty on the table, ready to go. leslie works in the office upstairs and had covid herself a couple of weeks ago. as a small business, especially, we do have to crack on, you know, and make the most of it, make the best of it. we have kits in the office to test, just in case anyone is feeling a bit off—colour. we do our best, but you have just got to get on with it. now it is up to individual companies to decide what to do about covid cases, the british chamber of commerce are calling for every business to have access to free or cheap lateral flow tests, so they can keep their workforce safe while keeping the workflow moving. laura's an employment lawyer and says official rules had been a kind of comfort blanket, but now companies face a new minefield. the typical issues seem to be, you know, what policies to put in place if people think they might have covid, particularly now that i tests are not so readily available, and people are not sure - whether they might have covid or not and what to do about that. _ what to do about staff— that they think are not being honest about whether they might have covid or symptoms because they _ don't want to lose pay. round here, we are all trying to, like, help each other out. kieran's already had covid but appreciates still being given options. well, when we do have covid in here, you have the choice whether to stay off or if you feel safer at home. you can do a little bit at home, like, we do labels and, like, you can take them home. getting staff on side with new sickness policies will be crucial to keeping the orders stacking up. colletta smith, bbc news, liverpool. it's a busy afternoon in the house of commons and we heard from the home secretary talking about the asylum plans and the deal signed with rwanda to process asylum seekers there and we are also waiting for the prime minister to take to his feet at the house of commons very soon. these are pictures of him leaving number ten to make his way to the house of commons and this will be his first statement to mps since he was fined for breaking his own lockdown rules last week. these swab were handed over to a number of people including the prime minister and the chancellor —— these fines were handed over. he is going to repeat that he did not knowingly break the rules and we will go to the house of commons as soon as we see the prime minister. the home secretary is just finishing off with her comments in response to questions over the government's asylum plans. a new study suggests that being overweight significantly increases a woman's risk of developing womb cancer. researchers at the university of bristol analysed genetic samples from 120,000 women in seven countries, including the uk. they found that the risk of developing womb cancer rose by 88% for every five extra units of bmi — or body mass index. they say the levels of two hormones, insulin and testosterone — both influenced by weight gain — increased the likelihood of a diagnosis. from today, rail passengers are being offered discounted train tickets as the government launches what it calls a great british rail sale. 1 million train tickets have gone on sale. the discounts are only valid for off—peak fares, and the discounted tickets available are valid for travel between 25th april and 27th may. the scheme won't coverjourneys made during half—term or the four—day uk bank holiday weekend from 2nd to 5th june, which will mark the queen's platinum jubilee. as part of the plans, some manchester to newcastle journeys could be reduced to about £10, while seats on some london to edinburgh services will be slashed from £44 to £22. transport campaigners have welcomed the move but argue that costs should be cut even further. the transport secretary grant shapps said the sale won't solve the cost of living crisis but will help people. i think it's one of these things, no—one is saying that it will solve everything, but every little bit helps. this is something where, for example, a london to edinburgh ticket could be as low as £22 — exactly half price in that case. manchester to newcastle for £10.30. these are very substantial reductions, particularly on advance tickets, and for people who perhaps haven't had the opportunity to visit friends and family or indeed need to travel for work. these are very substantial discounts. it's never happened before because we didn't have a single railway to do it with and great british rail is the reason why we have been able to do that, and i think it will be widely welcomed by people who want to travel. i know i will be taking advantage of it during the month ahead. earlier, we heard norman baker from the campaign group better transport, who said it's a good step forward but more needs to be done. it is limited in its effect and it doesn't cover commuters, as you mentioned, at all. commuting traffic hasn't come back. leisure travellers are actually back to 102% of where it was pre—covid. so, in a sense, they are aiming for a market which has already been returning. it is worthwhile doing it, because it is going to be the first time the government has tried cutting fares, rather than increasing them, and for that reason alone is worth doing. i very much hope that what will happen is the million tickets available will sell out very quickly, and give a clear signal to the government that cutting rail fares is a way to get more money coming in and more passengers on the trains. coastal towns were the big winners over the easter bank holiday weekend. our correspondent was in brighton. there is something to keep everyone here entertained in brighton, welcome to the world—famous brighton palace pier which has been here for more than 100 years and in that time, many people have come to the city to enjoy a seaside break and the fresh sea air. but like so much of uk tourism, it took a battering during the pandemic, the last couple of years, which is why the easter weekend has been such a crucial time. let's find out how uk tourism did as a whole, with bernard, who represents visitor attractions, and tracey who represents one of the big hotel chains. firstly, how was the easter weekend for visitor attractions? it was really good, really successful, the best possible start to a spring and summer recovery for uk tourism. the weather really helped, it was great weather practically all the way across the uk. we saw people coming out and spending in really good numbers. where were the big winners? the big winners were outdoors, places like safari parks and zoos, stately homes and places like that but actually, some people still wanted to go into city centres and museums and galleries because they are less crowded and busy because overseas visitors are not here at the moment. a really good tip — if you want to enjoy visitor attractions without the crowds, now is the time. tracey, your chain of hotels, how has it been in terms of bookings? i it has been really encouraging, i a great kind of return to the norm. brighton is always busy. during the school holidays but compared to easter 2019, we were actually 20% up, - 26% in fact in brighton, and 36% nationwide. i so very encouraging visitor numbers and guests are really _ loving being back out. how are you feeling about the summer, how's it looking? really good. seaside locations are incredibly popular for obvious reasons - but nationwide, we have some beautiful locations that i think| people are more keen than ever to explore so the summer- is looking really positive. thank you to you both. if the easter weekend was the beginning of the recovery, the summer is going to be even more crucial, especially as firms have so much to grapple with, staffing issues as well as the cost of living squeeze that we are hearing so much about. a lot of challenges facing business right now. hundreds of thousands of women across the uk had their babies taken away from them, during the 19505, 60s and 70s — because they weren't married. for more than a year now, bbc news has been hearing from women who say they were pressured into forced adoptions by doctors, social workers and churches. now, for the first time, a former nhs maternity nurse has come forward to say she witnessed callous behaviour towards some of these women. duncan kennedy reports. in the 30 years after world war ii, hundreds of thousands of unmarried women were shamed into giving up their babies for adoption. most gave birth in hospitals, that were supposed to be places of compassion. some of the older midwives would say, i hate the word, but these are "fallen women", they have to get on with their lives. in 1974, anne was a trainee maternity nurse. she spent some time at this hospital, in edinburgh. she's the first health worker to confirm to us that some nurses treated the unmarried pregnant women with scorn and derision. sometimes you felt they were cruel in how they spoke about them. how did these young mothers react? i think they were in shock. anne says some nurses removed babies straight after delivery, without the mothers being able to hold them. she says she's still haunted by one teenager, desperate to keep her baby. i can still picture her, because she was crying, and i remember saying to the midwife how she wanted to keep her baby and ijust was tearful after it. why were you upset? i just felt it was unjust. she says some nurses treated forced adoptions in an almost routine way. i think they were just generally institutionalised, that's what they did, and maybe they thought by trying to cut everything short, cut—and—dried, right, "you're in, you're away, you'll have your baby, "your baby will go for adoption, that's it." it sounds callous. now, absolutely. we showed the interview to lisa rowland, who was one of those shamed into giving up her baby. i can picture her hair, herface, tears streaming down, and she was very puffy. she became pregnant at 16, and was separated from her baby for nearly 30 years. she says hearing from a former trainee nurse proves what birth mothers went through. actually having someone in the profession saying this is what happened, just gives you credibility. as a young unmarried mother, turning up at hospital to have a baby, you... you had absolutely no chance whatsoever. it wasn't just nurses. parents, social workers and churches also shamed the young women. forced adoptions are now the subject of two national inquiries, one by the scottish government, and one by the uk parliament, with birth mothers calling for official apologies. what do you say to their campaign to get an apology from the scottish government and the uk government? i think they're right, these women were not treated with the dignity and respect that you would expect of a professional. must have been horrible and ghastly for them. duncan kennedy reporting there. the commonwealth games are going to take place in birmingham, which means one of the greatest challenges the west midlands police has

australia later in the week. that is expected to be outside the reserve bank of australia's tightening ban, which suggests tightening might be on its way to australia as well. shery: at least when it comes to the markets. today it seems there is a sigh of relief with emmanuel macron winning a second term as french president after defeating far right leader marine le pen. >> this day of the 24th of april, 2022, a with jordi among us made the choice to entrust in me the presidency of our republic for the five years to come. we have to consider all the difficulties of everyday lives and respond effectively to the anchor that has been expressed -- anger that has been expressed. shery: caroline, let me start with you. how significant is macron's victory not just for france but for the rest of europe? caroline: it is a relief for france and the rest of europe, given that france will remain reliable partner within the eu and within international alliances such as nato. especially at a time with the war in ukraine could is also a huge relief for macron's camp. given the pause we were seeing before the runoff emerged a tighter race between emmanuel macron and the national rally leader, marine le pen. however, it is not the same victory that we had in 2017 when emmanuel macron gathered 66% of the vote. so clearly emmanuel macron will also have to gather those french who did not vote for him, or actually voted for him just to block marine le pen, just to block the extreme. those who still feel left behind. those people, especially from the lower income working-class who voted for marine le pen who were tempted by the extreme, he will definitely need to re-conciliate those french people in order to get a majority in parliament two months from now. paul: so a victory for emmanuel macron, but not quite the mandate he had five years ago. what are the next challenges? how is this going to shape france's policy? caroline: over the next few days going to have a change of prime minister, a change of government, but in june for the legislative elections, macron needs to get a majority in the french parliament. if he does not manage to do so, that means he either will have to form some alliances with other parties including the republicans who are in disarray after their candidate got less than 5% of the votes in the first round a couple weeks ago. or perhaps he will have to forge alliances with the greens, who have very different views than emmanuel macron when it comes to the future of nuclear in the french energy mix. so a lot of challenges ahead to get this majority in parliament. and also of course to pass his future reforms. one reform he has not managed to pass during his first mandate was the pension reform. that was put on hold because of the pandemic. he is going to have to try and do his best to avoid another yellow vest type of protest. shery: at least for now though, we could say there was that sigh of relief across markets. andreea: yeah, there certainly was. you saw the euro pop up this morning in asia and you're likely to see french stocks and european stocks and bonds supported by this. but while it removes a risk for markets and we have already seen some of those euro gains fade this morning, the headwinds for investors that they have had to deal with are going to reassert themselves. a more hawkish ecb, the war in ukraine continuing to put pressure on commodity prices. inflation of course the biggest story for investors right now. and look, also what is happening in bond markets, which have been roiled as investors are starting to think that the fed is falling behind in its control of inflation. we are not talking about the timing of a fed rate rise. we know that is coming. we are talking about the magnitude. and no sooner had some bond investors become more bullish following the selloff last week, they are starting to capitulate and abandon those goals. paul: it is going to be another busy week for japanese and chinese markets. what are you watching for? andreea: look, what's going on in china, investors are looking for more policy support. they have been disappointed. you have had the yuan tumbled. how are policymakers going to handle that? there is still a hearing to that covid zero policy, which is having an impact on the economy. it is having an impact on the oil price. we have seen oil down this morning. so that is something investors are looking at. we also have the boj policy meeting later this week. highly unlikely that we will see anything from the boj. they do remain one of the more dovish central banks around the world, as does the pboc. paul: all right. thank you so much for joining us. let's get to vonnie quinn now with the first word headlines. vonnie: a ukrainian presidential adviser says u.s. secretary of state antony blinken defense secretary lloyd austin have traveled to kyiv. if confirmed, it would be the first visit by top american officials to ukraine's capital since russia's invasion began. president volodymyr zelenskyy said earlier he would discuss the need for more u.s. weapons and was waiting for the security situation to allow president biden to visit. air raid sirens were heard across much of ukraine early sunday evening, warning of potential russian airstrikes. earlier, russia said it hit a large consignment of foreign weapons in odessa. strikes also continued on a steel plant in mariupol, where some 2000 fighters are holding on. kyiv is still pushing for a cease-fire guarantee from moscow to evacuate more than 1000 civilians and injured soldiers. shanghai reported a record 39 covid-19 deaths on saturday. this brings the total number of virus-related fatalities to 87 since late february, according to shanghai's health commission. the average age of the people, almost 79. they all had underlying diseases. china is sticking with its covid-19 zero policy, with strict lockdowns in the city and beyond. sources say elon musk is meeting with executives from twitter this sunday to discuss is $43 billion unsolicited bid. the social media giant is also said to be turning more positive on a deal after musk unveiled his plan. the wall street journal reports of the meeting comes after musk met privately with several shareholders friday to pitch his proposal. global news 24 hours a day on air and on bloomberg quicktake, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. i'm vonnie quinn. this is bloomberg. shery: still ahead, our conversation with the ceo, sharing how the hot spring resort operator is coping with the country's continued closure to tourists. first, money markets are pricing in 200 basis points of fed tightening by september. we will analyze the impact on asian bonds with alliancebernstein. this is bloomberg. ♪ this is bloomberg. ♪ >> the fed is concerned about inflation. we have made clear that we will be moving accommodation to try and get it under control. but i know they will try to achieve a soft landing. and with some skill and some luck, we will have a very good year for the u.s. economy in terms of the job market this coming year. shery: u.s. treasury secretary janet yellen to bloomberg money markets pricing in 200 basis points of fed tightening by september. our next guest says asian high-yield debt historically outperforms aggressing -- investment grade. let's discuss more with jenny zeng from alliancebernstein. good to have the with us. if you want to get into asian junk at this point, how are we looking in terms of valuations though? jenny: good morning. yes, asian high-yield, if you look at valuation, there is another developed market, it's q uite attractive. it's been a collateral damage of the chinese property selloff. outside of china, particularly indonesia, india, are very strong. rate remains low. therefore, we think asia high-yield market right now will lead to longer term investors. this is a good entry point. shery: how can you factor in rising inflation though? asia has not had that, as many other countries -- has not had that problem, as many other countries have. and more regions becoming more hawkish. jenny: absolutely. how do asia central banks reply will depend on where they are in their economic cycles and their ability to smooth the economy. we see this as both risk and opportunity. we think most of asian central banks will look past the supply side shock and stick to gradual policy path. of course there will always be some patient controlled the banks that will need to act faster than others. the likes of thailand. but there will be others who are benefiting from higher inflation. for example, indonesia, malaysia, australiaey are in a better position to pass through inflation. paul: there are a handful of people spoken to a bloomberg survey expect a small chance of recession in china. can you see a scenario in which china's economy actually contracts? jenny: the chinese economy, the fundamentals of the chinese economy remains quite solid. if you look at recent data it is suggesting it is not really as bad as the market suggests. now, the worry is the current policy support that the government has already put in place may not benefit because of the covid policies. because activities are subdued. we expect that china gradually, as the death rate comes down and case counts come down, the china's government will rethink the covered policy. now that is the key. paul: i just want to take a look at a chart on the bloomberg terminal at the moment. this is the offshore yuan, which has taken a real beating. sinking again against the u.s. dollar this is not too much of a concern for exporters. might be welcomed by

australia do that. you mentioned australia, denmark as well. what are the lessons that we can learn from them? was the lessons that we can learn that they were unsuccessful article in the case of australia. or we know that there when, when asylum seekers were off sure, taken to remote offshore locations, but the impact on them in terms of mental health in terms of their own well being was, was devastating. and in fact, the cost was extremely high. of some reports suggest that it was $3.00 to $4000000.00 per person per year to host those people. so in terms of the cost and the impact on the people and the signaling in all of those areas, we think that it's not the right path to follow. thank you for your time. matthew salt moss, head of news and media at the united nations high commissioner for refugees. and key delegates in chile are struggling to reach a consensus on critical parts of a new constitution. and as the deadline nears opposition is growing support to say, campaign of miss information is to blame a latin american ada salisia. newman has more from santiago 9 months ago, the overwhelming majority of chileans voted to allow 155 delegates to form the was 1st constitutional convention with gender parity. and that promised to address modern day challenges. like protecting the environment. many picket did it would become a global reference. but with less than 3 months left to finish drafting the proposed constitution, things aren't looking quite so good. i. it cannot be that they want to expropriate our pension funds, or our houses. they do not protect us from anything. simply comparable boy. all they care about is changing the national anthem, or emblem, and our flag in the in actual fact, none of these things have been approved by the convention, nor the belief by many that parents won't have a say in their children's education. that indigenous groups will form 12 independent countries, and that farmers won't be able to kill their animals. ah, but it is an extraordinarily complex process in which every delegate has a voice, even to make sometimes absurd proposals thorough eventually dismissed. and it become even more confusing. thanks to misinformation, campaigns that are spreading on social media or more new study reveals that 60 percent of chileans have received false information about the convention. epic tamika back they might have been there wasn't the camry detected that 30 percent of these people shared this false names. it wasn't necessarily on purpose. but if you believe what you read and think it's relevant, you share that information without verifying it to the ones that actually went to good. as a result, 3 new polls suggest the chilean support has plummeted for a new constitution that 80 percent had hoped would lay the groundwork for a more equal and just society unless we go through this. even before the convention has finished drafting the majority of articles in there for about b as a boy, the idea here is to distribute power more evenly. we always knew that those who hold power don't want to lose it. and the mainstream media, which is owned by major economic groups, is a neutral when it comes to covering the convention center chillies mainstream media is mostly conservative, but it's in fact the social media has the most impact. according to european union experts, false information or disinformation spread 6 times faster than real news. oftentimes because of misleading headlines that have nothing to do with the body of the story . rectifying or neutralizing misinformation is far more difficult and is turning out to be a major challenge for what may be the 1st constitution written under the influence of this new technological age. lucy and human al jazeera santiago stella had

australia could play a transformative role for oats own export profile and the whole region. australia is a major exporter of embedded emissions to the region. the consequential downstream emissions from processing australia's coal and gas and iron ore and aluminum in the region are responsible for 8% of total emissions in the asian region. australiantly is a major exporter of emissions for the region, but we also have this incredible renewable energy resource. we have so much land and sunshine and great wind breezes. australia could start to export embedded renewable energy and help drive decarbonization in the region. that could be in the form of direct electricity exports, like the sun cable proposal, or in the form of hydrogen exports. we have many players, including future industries, looking at mega-scale hydrogen production, using a renewable energy resources. and there is room for australia to value more than it traditionally has. in recent decades we have been very much about digging things out of the ground and exporting them overseas. we could partially process some of our own materials using renewable energy and australia, bringing value to australia and the region and helping the carbonized. haidi: how do you keep the attention on the transition to green and climate change? feels like every time there is a sizable dis

australia is not comparable. this is not the type of arrangement that australia had. australia is a sovereign country and has its own arrangement. it is fair to say, our teams have been working through facilities here. you've heard me mention in my remarks as well the technical experience that well the technical experience that we are bringing. we believe in investing in rwanda and we are very open about we believe it is the right thing to do. we stand here today absolutely committed to changing some of the norms around the broken global migration system because, for too long, other countries and, by the way, naysayers, been sitting on the hands watching people die so we have the right processes in place and we have the checks and balances which are incredibly important and you heard me say my remarks as well about respect for the rule of law but importantly, as well, national and international laws and conventions. in addition to the infrastructure aspect of the programme, when we are discussing these partnerships we assess our capacity to receive migrants and we know that we have the capacity in place to receive migrants but we are also investing in new infrastructures going forward. and we are looking at investing in social infrastructures for this programme to take place. we are looking at investing in education, we are looking at investing in housing for the migrants but also for our own people so we have been working on all aspects of the programme including the infrastructure programme. we are ready and going forward we want to keep investing with the support of the uk to have the capacity we need to receive migrants. welcome to bbc news. we are live in the rwandan capitalfor a press conference announcing the uk government's partnership with the rwandan government to process asylum claims. focusing on single men he may travel across the channel claiming asylum in the uk. the home secretary in rwanda pointing out this is the biggest overhaul of the uk immigration system in decades. she says it is a scheme that is fairer to ensure the people i say. she has just been taking fairer to ensure the people i say. she hasjust been taking questions from journalists there about why the uk government has chosen to partner with rwanda. she says this is absolutely a partnership. it is a two—way arrangement and a culmination of nine months of dialogue. nine months of talks to make sure the technical arrangements are in place. we had from the prime minister who was making the announcement in the uk in kent same relying solely on turning back boats in the english channel is not practical. this is a way of the uk government seizing control of immigration debbie said the uk public voted several times to take control of immigration and he is focused on the work of people smugglers in the english channel and said it is a barbaric trade in human suffering in the english channel. there's been you up—to—date with all the details that we have had on what is being described as a landmark announcement. borisjohnson said. announcement. boris johnson said. some announcement. borisjohnson said. some people refuse permission to stay in the uk will instead be sent 4000 miles to east africa. it is part of a range of measures outlined to cut the number of people crossing the english channel in small bits foot of the government ceases as a way to reduce illegal migration but critics have called those plans cruel. last year nearly 29,000 people crossed the english channel in small boats and yesterday alone 600 people made that crossing. in 2021, at least 44 of them drowned. the uk is now expected to give £120 million to the rwandan government under what is a trial scheme. boris johnson says rwanda is one of the safest countries in the world but last year, to the united nations, the uk demanded investigations into killings, disappearances and torture in the country. sending migrants abroad, though, is not new. australiabe properly protected including with access to legal services. given the opportunity to build a new life in that dynamic country supported by the funding provided. the deal we have done is uncapped and rwanda will have the capacity to resettle tens of thousands of people in the years ahead and lets be clear. rwanda is one of the safest countries in the world. globally recognised for its record in welcoming and integrating migrants. as you saw, that press conference being given by the home secretary there in rwanda. mark easton, our home editor gave this update from rwanda earlier. we have just been on a visit to an accommodation block which the rwandan government is renting and will be used to house those asylum seekers who british government hoped to fly, as you say, 4000 miles south to fly, as you say, 4000 miles south to have their asylum claims had in rwanda. the intention is not for these people to come back again even if they are found to be genuine refugees. they will then, in t
