you might remember david cameron's target to reduce net migration to the tens of thousands.l lot in recent years. we do want to bring it down. but the exact number that you need will always ebb and flow, depending on the needs of the economy. so you are not going to have a target? we are not going to have a numerical target for net migration. 0k. but we are going to make sure that we do more to train our own workforce. no numerical target pat mcfadden was the for migration, but they want to bring numbers down. we can expect a figure on house building, early years education, the government saying they want to 0r building an nhs fit for the future. and what the prime minister wants to do this week is put specific milestones and targets that the public can judge them by, isuppose, by the time of the next election. the deputy prime minister... sorry, forgive me, the chancellor of the duchy of lancaster, pat mcfadden, was on that laura kuenssberg show this morning explaining what they will be doing. targets for net migration in the country haven't worked well the country, numeric

so come to find out when the panama broke that david cameron was the beneficiary of an offshore trustestablished by his father. and of course he knew about it. this this was no secrets. and that sort of goes to show something that we've also seen in all the subsequent leaks, which is many of the parties asians who who yell the loudest about how terrible offshore centers are and how going to crack down on tax evasion. they end up being participants in the system. they themselves at the expense of the countries they're supposed to govern by using the offshore financial system to avoid taxes, to take bribes, to invest in illegal, highly profitable activities. so the people who are empowered to change the laws and to shut down the offshore system have a massive conflict of interests they benefit from that system. so that's why it never gets changed. but you actually end the book relatively, somewhat hopeful that there are some ways to curb the use of offshore financial centers. why is that? well, one of the things that we saw after the most recent russian invasion of ukraine in february o

david cameron saying he was going to bring down immigration to tens of thousands.hi sunak's five pledges five, not all of which he achieved. but also if we take a step back, what's interesting is that keir starmer's government do seem to be putting everything on delivery, as in they are making quite sort of big targets, ambitious targets, which, if they don't achieve them, maybe a bit like rishi sunak, the voters will be able to say, "look, why don't we..." we're voting you out. yeah, potentially. one of the things pat mcfadden talks about this morning was this idea that four and five year olds are not all of them are actually ready to start in reception class at primary school. so they don't necessarily know how to use the loo, or they can't speak in the way they should be able to speak by the time they're four or five, and they're going to push that target up from 60% of four and five year olds being ready to start school to 75%. so that is easily measurable, isn't it? it certainly is. and the number before the pandemic was 70%. so it's dipped tojust over 60. and

the timetable was sped up by david cameron's government.re never told, they were not given adequate notice. in some cases they got to the age of 60, having made plans to begin receiving their state pension then and discovered they would not receive it for another five years. they would not receive it for anotherfive years. for they would not receive it for another five years. for years they have been campaigning for compensation to alleviate that issue, to alleviate the pressure on their finances which resulted. there was a report a few months ago from an official body, parliamentary ombudsman, which said the government should pay compensation. yesterday, the government responded by saying they would not pay compensation. they made broadly two arguments for why. 0ne compensation. they made broadly two arguments for why. one was that even the ombudsman who recommended compensation said that 90% of the affected women did know they were affected, so they say it would not be proportionate to give compensation to 1950s born women in relation to

that was another thing david cameron didn't reveal to the world about his in—out referendum.! so obviously, the reason why we're mentioning this is that faisal islam, who was in brussels with the chancellor, was on newscast on friday saying that this reset the mood music is going to be far more going to be far more expansive than just a couple of tinkering over here with youth movement, and a couple of tinkering over there with the veterinary, whether you can take your poodle into france or not. thatjust really made me laugh! pet passports for poodles? it's notjust designed to set you off. it's the idea that the mood music that you're picking up as well. well, by the way, faisal was in brussels with the chancellor. the chancellor was in brussels. rachel reeves addressed the eu 27, as it now is since 2021. sorry, since 2020. and ijust sort of caught sight... as laura knows, the office where i work, you know, it has tvs everywhere. and i suddenly sort of caught sight out of the corner of my eye of rachel reeves doing one of those clips where all the eu leaders do those sort of

well, david cameron, whoever, you know, nobody really can speak like this guy. and you've always been a part of the presidential pull. any comment on that? not always, but since about 2008. yeah, i had an opportunity to sort of witness how the president operates. but i think now what you're talking about is basically, i think some of these skills he got back in university because he's a law student. and then of course, with the background in the intelligence services, and then all of that cemented into what we're seeing now. and of course, the years and years of practice of these q and a sessions, we in fact which there are now even in these sessions, they're now using an artificial intelligence to help group all these millions of questions. so after all this practice, this is why the president is straightforward, except for one thing he was asked whether or not he knows who created the name for the latest missile defense missile system or risk, right? because in english it basically means that not tree or hazel, not hanging on the right. yeah. yeah. so why is t

as tony blair found and david cameron and gordon brown who all said the same thing, the scars on my back, the system doesn't deliver what politicians imagine it will. >> you're quite right. you're quite right. there is many other reasons why a policy might fail apart from the command of the center. tony blair, like, years after job center plus, complaining had to go to the launch and said didn't we do that years ago, and said no, prime minister, only just started. it is not just recalcitrant councils that means this policy might fall by the way side. but structure and serious deficiencies. >> talking about civil servants and the tepid bath of decline and then this moon shot of building houses that has never been seen since the 1950s. you must look at that and think i can't see how they're going to be able to hit this target. >> well, i know economics is described as the dismal science. i do actually think having -- the way she described it, so, the problem of planning is very low code. the national plan that coordinates is the right approach. >> are you ready to tell them what to do, rig

in the uk, then prime minister david cameron similarly went to the british house of commons to make hisution failed, 272-285, with members of cameron's own conservative party. with the u.s. sideline, the failure to enforce a redline against syria arguably gave russia, iran, and has below a green light to fill the void and drag the civil war into a very different direction, which brings us to today. here we are, at a crossroads, once again, were wrong decisions are being made in the middle east in real time. this time, by america's closest ally in the region, israel, against a syrian government is still taking shape. since assad's collapse, israel has launched a sweeping aerial campaign and ground invasion with at least 350 airstrikes being leveled against military assets across syria, taking out the navy, fighter jets, drones, tanks, air defense systems, weapons plants, and a wide array of missiles and rockets, according to the israeli military. now, presumably, the new syrian government that wants to preserve its territorial sovereignty and security, is probably going to want some of t

they are global leadership in the sense that the support of the syrian people was lost after david cameron'spt to vote through allegations of using [ inaudible ] chemical weapons on his own people. it was a real blow to him and to president obama who backed away from that and in that power vacuum, russia really stepped into the conflict and we have seen everything that is happened since so i think we want to tread carefully here but there will be big geopolitical concerns for the prime minister and about security, big debate going on about defense spending at the moment but obviously, that is in competition with other domestic spending pressures, concerns about migration. the last time we saw fighting in syria breakout, that led to the migration crisis which puts real pressure on the prime minister at the moment that we wait to hear what the government will be saying. >> for more analysis on syria i'm joined now by professor mike or clark former director general of the royal united services institute. good morning to you. i wonder your thoughts. how did this rebel advance develop so quickly?

. >> i mean, i quite like the idea that david cameron mooted a few years ago, which was having a happinessx. and it's a bit picking up ben's point about how you feel about the economy. you know, it's not just about these numbers, which, you know, 0.1 either way doesn't make any difference to me at all. but do people feel confident? are they going to spend their money, are they going to invest and so on? is there a different matrix, a different metric? and i think the happiness index could be one way to do that. it's quite interesting idea, but how you feel is absolutely part of the economy isn't it? >> well, i mean, again, i go back to the fact the bank of england started cutting rates in august. mortgage costs were coming down, energy costs were coming down, energy costs were coming down. and by the way, just on energy as well. we were told by ed miliband in the run up to the election that bills were reduced by £300 a year. now were reduced by £300 a year. now we don't have a particular time stamp on that. we don't know when that's going to happen. in fact, energy bills are going up in ja

photographed not only with david cameron, but also with theresa may. >> yeah, there's perhaps there's a touch of the tinker tailor soldier spy there, too. it's a pretty damning story. i mean, i think that quite apart from the revelations about prince andrew and i think obviously we've known for a very, very long time that he's got terrible political judgement and that the king was quite right to try and ostracise him as much as he has. but also, i think it's very important that we remember that, you know, this is not just an andrew problem, as the sunday times makes very clear in this reporting. this goes to the heart of the british establishment. you know, there are many tainted institutions beyond beyond prince andrew and his role in the royal family. there's, you know, the ancient universities, big business and in fact, politicians. because as the sunday times points out, this spy was able to meet with both david cameron and theresa may. yes. >> look, many people meet with theresa may and david cameron and any other prime minister, right.7 okay, so they're kind of caught on camera.
