the investigation into damien green found kate moore to be plausible but damien green, although he hasot recognise that version of events. competing accounts of what were private meetings. downing street said it was very clear that he wants everybody to work in westminster. the party leaders are working together to try to implement new grievance procedures. parliament is also trying to put new measures in place but it will take a lot of convincing for people to think that things really have changed. they will be taken seriously. and that action will be taken against people against whom claims are made. borisjohnson will warn russia to stop cyber attacks which threaten britain's national security or face retaliation of a similar kind from the uk. he's making the first visit to moscow by a british foreign secretary for more than five years. he'll say he wants the two countries to co—operate on international challenges, including the threat posed by north korea. pro—independence parties in catalonia have won a majority of the seats in an election for the regional parliament. the result is

the main evidence remaining against michael stone is, ironically, a confession, heard by this man, damieno stone, and daley says stone confessed to him via a pipe in the adjoining cell. michael stone's confession has always been controversial. even though two juries accepted its credibility and found him guilty of murder. stone and his supporters have always said it cannot be relied upon. but michael stone is himself now pinning his own hopes of a fresh appeal on another alleged confession, said to have been made here, at frankland prison in durham. why should we believe this confession any more than the alleged false confession which you said was made by michael stone? knowing something in a confession that other people would not know goes to the core of the credibility of the confession. but it goes further. because of the way he takes the confession, the way that he writes it down. the fact that he is telling his solicitor the day that he hears it, "i have just heard this." so he's supporting it at the same time as he's writing it by telling someone what he has heard. it's corroborativ
