the dominant paradigm says what?you pushed back, stand firm, signal to that aggressor state that you are not going to go soft. so we armed the georgians, we undertook a train and equip program. we set u.s. military personnel into georgia. they undertook a significant program to bolster the georgian military, why? in part to send a signal to the russians that they were going to be in for a fight if they wanted to attack. and then we engaged with moscow at very senior levels said to the russians, don't go there. this is out of bounds. don't even think about it. and what else did we do? we, in conjunction with our nato allies we announced officially that georgia and ukraine would one day become part of nato. these are all signals that according to that dominant paradigm should have caused the kremlin to say, that's not where i want to go i want to look elsewhere for my ambitions. but instead what happened? a very complicated situation, a complex system dynamic problem occurred. the georgians read all this and said, wow,

there is nothing wrong with being dominant if it is done fairly. that's what our investigation intends to uncover, whether google has played by the rules. there is a fine line sometimes between aggressive and illegal business practices. usually the line is very clear. our investigation will determine whether google has crossed that line. i want to reiterate something. this is an investigation. it is preliminary. google is entitled to a presumption of innocence while we look at whether these actions are illegal or not. that said, there is a reason why there are so many of us standing here. i think that speaks to the pervasiveness, the seriousness, the continuity of the complaints and concerns that have been raised by the american people over time. evidence that we have seen, concerns that we have heard. as general racing referenced, this is nothing new. in 2016, not only did we talk to google, we sent a letter to the ftc asking them to reopen an investigation into google's alleged manipulation of search practices. we were heartened when our e.u. col

that's our dominant paradigm. now, not everybody in washington buys into this. there is another school of thought that says, no, no, no, putin is not hitler, russia is not nazi germany too. obscures the picture more than illumeins what is going on here. this school of thought you would call defense of russia, and there are few prominent proponents of this, steve cohen, professor emeritus at new york university, very prominent advocate of this school of thought. john at the university of chicago, another one. their argument is russia is actually reacting to nato's eastward expansion that steady encroachment by what they perceive as a hostile u.s. led military appliance cleaning ever closer to russia's borders, moving from the war saw pact into the former soviet republics and the combination of this, which the russia perceive as a serious threat to their national security, and a long history of u.s. meddling, you might say in russia's own internal patrol tick is provoking a defensive reaction. and according to this school of thought, the real danger here is not th

obviously, search is what google dominates. it wasn't too long ago to a half years ago that my attorney general colleague shauna reyes from utah and i sent a letter to google inquiring about their power in search. it used to be a day when we searched google that we would be presented with links unrelated to the google business. very compelling analysis suggests that the overwhelming number of query responses relate to google businesses and or advertisers that paid for that slot within those legs. attorney general really care about where the rubber meets the road. that is for the residents of their state and consumers. we also care about businesses. especially small businesses. they may be locked out as a result of what may be monopolistic power. this is an unusual setting right ear. i'm next to friends of mine who i vehemently disagree with on issues like immigration, reproductive rights, gun rights and other issues, certainly healthcare but we are acting as one today in regards to wanting what i know will be a fair and full in

we have mentioned dominic cummingsafew already? we have mentioned dominic cummings a few times.re with so much authority and power who appears in number10. so much authority and power who appears in number 10. there is a story in the observer about anger over a westminster security parcel at dominic cummings. demanding to know why boris johnson's aid at dominic cummings. demanding to know why borisjohnson‘s aid has access despite being in contempt of parliament. why do you think that is? what do you think of that? what doi is? what do you think of that? what do i think of it? we are in a tweedle dumb, tweedledee period of politics. as a commentator, i love it. my goodness, it sets tongues wagging and it makes us think. as a politician, i hate it because it brings parliament into disrepute. there is no consistency in what we are seeing happening. why isn't he being given leave to enter when he didn't turn up for his committee? and has been found in contempt? nothing is happening as one would expect it to happen at the moment and that is quite fun. it is very disruptive. of course

the dominant paradigm says what?you you stand firm you signal to that aggressor state that you are not going to go soft. so we armed the georgians we undertook to train and equip program we sent us military personnel into georgia they undertook a significant program to bolster the georgia military, why? in part to send a signal to the russians that they were going to be in for a fight if they wanted to attack. and then we engaged with moscow and at very senior levels sent to the russians, don't go there. this is out of bounds. don't even think about it. and what else did we do? we in conjunction with our nato allies announced officially that georgia and ukraine would one day become part of nato. and certainly they are not going to let us down if we get into a problem here. they've got our backs. we told the georgians, don't get into a war. condoleezza rice said to the georgian president, don't attack. don't fall for the russian trap. what did suckers really here? what he heard was, yes i know. don't attack the russia

borisjohnson, dominic might not be following the plan.ohnson, dominic cummings might not be following the plan. borisjohnson, dominic cummings plan but here's the interesting thing about it. although the events of the past couple of weeks have been i am sure, really shocking to lots of people, we have seen people in the streets, we should not give the impression that somehow a million people on the streets, it has been very dramatic. it was always in his team and we got that message from people, the total awareness that they were going to go down a provocative route, that he was likely to put this confrontation on hyperspeed to force this thing to a conclusion. because brexitcast, we have all been talking about this grinding, grinding process that is gone on and on, borisjohnson poss 's priority is to stick to that deadline of halloween and that means forcing the confrontation, and that is what we are going to do. for a political point of view, it is not surprising but it is a funny thing to explain away. we saw a bit of that way in bruss

there is nothing wrong with being the dominant player if it is done fairly. that is what our investigation intends to uncover and reveal whether google is played by the , rules or acted fairly. there is a fine line sometimes between aggressive business practices and easy go once. the line is very clear. again, our investigation will determine whether google has crossed the line. i want to reiterate, this is a seminary investigation, google is entitled to a presumption of innocence as we look into whether the actions google has conducted are illegal or not. that said, there is a reason why so many of us are standing here together, ic think it seeks to the pervasiveness, the seriousness, and the continuing to of the complaints and concerns that have been raised by the american people over time with evidence be seen concerned we've heard. as a general racine reference d, this is not new to us, these are issues we have been dealing with. and there are even more now in not only to talk to google but 2016. we sent a letter to get out to the ftc asking them to reope

how important is dominic cummings in what is happening now?ter. he's hugely important. hugely influential. hugely dangerous. a master at the dark arts. has very extreme, hard-right politics. has taken very strange views on issues like nugenics and is now driving this country after a cliff. he clearly has boris johnson in his pocket. he won the referendum in very dubious ways. many of your viewers will understand what i'm saying when i say that. the use of facebook. worries about international interference from -- particularly from russia and other places, so very, very worried to see dominic cummings right at the center of power here in the uk and influencing events in europe as well. >> one unnamed member of the conservative party told "the new york times" this weekend, referring to dominic cummings and boris johnson, "one is a charleton and the other a psychopath." i believe the charleton is boris johnson in that comparison. is that overdone? >> no. it's not overdone. something sick and cancerous has entered into the system here in the uk. t

and there is a sense that someone like dominic cummings might have been, i suppose, like dominic cummingsummings might have been, i suppose, less concerned about withdrawing the whip from them. that is not to say it is his idea, but i did speak to one rebel who has had the weapon withjohn idea, but i did speak to one rebel who has had the weapon with john who say they did trust boris johnson when he was making his brexit promises to them that he wanted to get a deal. the problem was they didn't trust dominic cummings, and they thought he was in charge. let's go to the telegraph. they have hypocrite corbyn rejecting election to break the deadlock. how difficult is this for labour, the question about when they support an election? there seems to have been a little bit of a division betweenjeremy corbyn and, for example, sir keir starmer, about the exact timing of an election and when they would support an election. yes, so the opponents of boris johnson support an election. yes, so the opponents of borisjohnson have, for the first couple of days that parliament has been back, remained remar

i finally have something in common with dominic cummings."johnson's top adviser. mr gauke later tweeted: "just received an urgent clarification. membership still valid, but barred from being re—selected. i don't have anything in common with dominic cummings after all. a happy note on which to end the day." let's talk to two rebels. ed vaizey voted against the government to delay no—deal. he was a culture minister in david cameron's government. he is considering whether to stand in the next election as an independent. and caroline nokes, a former immigration minister, also rebelled. if borisjohnson if boris johnson doesn't if borisjohnson doesn't deliver brexit on october 31st, can he survive? i think it will be very difficult for him which is why he is focused on it and why i was sympathetic over the summer for his position. you take a judgment call, if parliament won't vote for a deal, what is the next worst thing? potentially, it is brexit so you do everything you can —— it is extending brexit. i change my mind and became a rebel when i fel

that basically dominated the podium 10 and he said take a lay i mean what a comeback for the 37 year old he ended up finishing this race in 2 hours and minute and 41 seconds as you just mentioned he came so close to reaching to basically he just missed the world record by 2 seconds people need to understand that this is a major comeback for me for him he was a late entry into the marathon a lot of people didn't even think he was going to participate he's had a lot of these nagging injuries that have been giving him problems and of course who are performances so for him what an incredible comeback and on the woman side of course it was also an ethiopian dominance we had. a who of course was an outsider she wasn't a favorite but after the 40 kilometer walk she began to really dominate this marathon it was after that it was smooth sailing for her. if i was out there today i'd probably be rolling in and about midnight tonight but i see that there's still plenty of people running behind you. exactly so we've read. the 3 hour mark and this is what also what makes the berlin marathon and am

dominic grieve being thrown out of the conservative party? pre—empt our decision if he removes the whip from dominic, the matinee be taken out of our hands. would you support that? —— the matter will be taken out of our hands. i am the vice president of the beaconsfield association and how they will have governance. to some extent i would not (inaudible) but there are very strong sentiments and deep divisions within the constituency, as there is all over the country. i am trying to find out if you would support dominic grieve being thrown out? i suppose the answer would be, given that he and the other mps are trying to derail the other mps are trying to derail the prime minister from carrying out what he stood on in terms of wanting to get us out of brexit on october 30, any attempt to derail that would inevitably dart all neighbouring town the government, will inevitably have the consequence of an mp having the whip removed and therefore i think that, on that basis, the association is more likely than not to deselect him. would you support t

controversy conference has been dominated by c0 ntrove fs)’ was conference has been dominated by controversyterday, there was a foiled plot mr corbyn‘s left—wing allies to get rid of his deputy, tom watson. it wasn't a move against him specifically but concerns about the role of deputy leader, and i was not aware that the particular motion was going to be moved at that time. i don't think we should make rule changes on a whim. at the heart of some tensions is brexit, with tom watson again calling this afternoon for the party to say it backs staying in the eu, to be unequivocally pro—remain. many members agree and they are frustrated that the leadership hasn't picked a side. they are walking a tightrope, trying to appeal to both remain and leave voters, but mr corbyn just will not commit. we will put both views and say, this is the best deal we can get, this is the remain and hopefully reform option, these are the choices before you. if you negotiate what you regard as a good deal with brussels, do you campaign for it or not? lets see what we get and will put that final decision to the people

here is our health correspondent dominic hughes.ith sleep play a vital role in the lives of millions of people, but concern is growing about how many of these potentially addictive drugs are being prescribed, and for how long. public health england looked at five commonly prescribed types of medicine, including powerful painkillers, sleeping pills and antidepressants. a quarter of all adults in england have been prescribed at least one of these drugs in the year to march 2018. half of all patients taking these drugs have done so continuously for the previous 12 months, and depending on the medicine, between the fifth and a third had received a prescription for at least the previous three years. these drugs are commonly used for some very common ailments. what i am more concerned about is that half of the people who are taking these drugs have been prescribed those in the last year have had a prescription for more than a year, and for the vast majority of these medicines, using them for that length of time is very unlikely to be supp

do people consider themselves dominant or passive and what role does testosterone play and so what we found was that testosterone didn't have a direct effect on competitive decisionmaking but it really depended on whether they filled out the questionnaire suggesting that they were high or low in dominance so some of our work does suggest that hormones do impacts behavior such as competitive behavior but interestingly in inconsistent with the sort of myth about testosterone as direct a fact is depends on people's personalities so the way we see ourselves. so testosterone influences our personality and in turn our personality influences our level of testosterone. high levels of testosterone a said to make men verrall and dominant and society either views such men with respect or contempt testosterone also fuels competition among men perhaps it's no coincidence that this hormone was discovered during the late stages of the industrial revolution and. in the $850.00 s. shall edward brown sic are was one of the 1st scientists to speculate on the existence of substances that we now know is h

dominic is a fighter behind the scenes and he cannot account for himself in public. —— dominic is advising not elected but he is about to be chief of staff. yes but the chief of staff is not an elected position and you do have a lot of advisers.” staff is not an elected position and you do have a lot of advisers. i was an adviser in number 10 and your role is to provide the prime minister with information and provide strategic advice on various bits of policy, but ultimately it is up bits of policy, but ultimately it is up to him or her to make those decisions and they are accountable for them. pointing the finger at dominic is likely a distraction when actually we should be focusing on what the strategy is. and he is a very smart, very intelligent, very driven guy. big week for everyone. really nice to see you and thank you for talking through the stories. a big week as far as politics is concerned and we will keep you up—to—date with the twists and turns on bbc breakfast. before we go let's checkin on bbc breakfast. before we go let's check in with the weather to see what is going on. sa

this was the message from dominic raab.r colleagues, or former colleagues, who mayjust be tempted to put jeremy corbyn and that momentum mob into number 10, as part of some kind of temporary anti—brexit coalition, ijust say this... applause and as for the liberal democrats... murming. they want to scrap the result of the 2016 vote. you can't call yourself a democrat, put it in the name of your party, and then try to cancel a referendum. applause now of course applause now of course some applause now of course some of those former conservatives i suppose we should call them have said they would never supportjeremy corbyn to be prime minister and that is why we are in the position we are down because they, along with the liberal democrats say they would not do that, even making jeremy corbyn a ca reta ker that, even making jeremy corbyn a caretaker prime minister and not prepared to do it so the numbers are not there for an alternative government withjeremy not there for an alternative government with jeremy corbyn reading it

he can from his dominance of the market. dollar of profit he can from his dominance of the marketlj every dollar of profit he can from his dominance of the market. i would not endorse a statement that broad. what i would suggest is in the world of technology, people start companies with a great idea and then moving very fast, and one of the lessons to be learned is that while it is important to move fast, one should never move faster than the speed of thought, and i think if you look at the history of digital technology, it has had a tendency at times for companies to move fast, the old slogan was move fast and break things, and the old slogan was move fast and breakthings, and i the old slogan was move fast and break things, and i think the new slogan... just interrupts you for a second, do you think microsoft was guilty of that, in its determination --in its guilty of that, in its determination ——in its determination to absolutely dominate and rule the operating market for pcs? i think what we learned is that we have to mo

yet it's dominated all of the papers. that's a very good point.is year. i have heard friends who say i can't mention brexit to my family and friends because it always ends in a massive row and people storm out. it's that incendiary as an issue. wait until after october the 31st. it will all be fine! if there's not enough turkey or we've got a problem getting brussels sprouts. are we going to stop having brussels sprouts because of this? christmas dinner could be interesting this year. christmas dinner is off! another reason not to go for no—deal! another reason not to go for no-deal! i'm moving you off brexit now, too scary! what is the native food of luxembourg? a massive blancmange! that tells us all we need to know! off brexit, the front page of the times. jo? this is an interesting story. the times launched a clean air for all campaign earlier this year, this is featured, they've been calling for a live pollution monitor in every postcode and there's a new website that's been started up, too, launched by the central office for interest, a not—

and dominic cummings, his senior aide, european union.the referendum was pressure. this is not difficult at all, this is a walk in the park. all they leave team, we are enjoying this, we are going to when, we're going to leave. don't worry. sorry the audio quality was a little pair on that clip. he was saying in that that dealing with a brexit and being in government as a walk in the park compared to the referendum, but this morning dominic cummingsi referendum, but this morning dominic cummings i think try to deny that he said that. yes, a slightly odd turn of events. rbc people are just heard what dominic cummings said last night, saying that this was a walk in the park compared to the referendum. this was put to him this morning, let's have a listen. why are you blaming mps? who is blaming who? why are you blaming mps? lovely to see you all. it doesn't look like a walk in the park, does it? a walk in the park? who said it would be a walk in the park? you said it last night at a book launch. are you causing chaos in the country? that is

it is clear what is dominating all those front pages. telegraph, quoting boris johnson, i do not want an election, you do not want an election. but it is planned for october the 14th. he did not say that but downing street sources are saying did not say that but downing street sources are saying that is what would happen, a tub with the a0 diff mps block no deal. that is what they are saying. they are basically trying to force any wavering tory potential rebels to back the government and to not push through the legislation that is being planned for tomorrow and then the day after. to try and stop as falling out of the eu without a deal. parliament is trying to assert its authority, the prime minister is trying to threaten that if the tory rebels don't back him the will face an election. of course the prime minister may say, i am going to call an election, but we have a fixed—term parliaments act, so he cannot decide without the approval of two thirds of mps to actually have an election. he is still facing the threat we are still facing a

cain is in part stam and joins us now dominic the 2 big parties of managed to win 1st place in these state elections but they have suffered a decline in their popularity tell us more about what these results are showing. well one thing to point out immediately merriam as you were saying is the real drop in support for the 2 main parties the mainstream parties as it were they govern this country together in a grand coalition and they governed the 2 states electing today separately in saxony the christian democrats are saying the americans party is being said in the introduction they lost 80000 more than into the 80000 of their voters from 2014 went directly to the a d. the point here is these are heartlands for christian democrats in saxony and the social democrats in brandenburg let's be clear about it the burden for all fell 30 years ago this november since then since the return of democracy to these 2 states these 2 parties the social democrats and the christian democrats separately have governed these 2 states and yet now a party of the far right has come 2nd a close 2nd to those

general, dominic grieve.shes clear to their relatives. here's our health correspondent dominic hughes. this golf course near wolverhampton means a lot to bill moore's family. bill loved to play here but his sudden death left them devastated. the decision on whether or not to donate his organs was complicated by not knowing exactly what he would have wanted. it was really difficult to make that decision at the time. we were on such a rollercoaster of emotions, and i think not knowing his wishes at the time made it even harder. if we had known that he had said he wanted to donate his organs it would have made things a lot easier. last year, nearly 70% of the families of potential organ donors agreed to go ahead. but 835 families didn't want to, mostly because they hadn't discussed organ donation with their loved one. each person can donate multiple organs, so it is estimated this amounts to 2500 missed opportunities for a transplant. in the end, bill's family did go ahead, helping at least eight people in the p

suspect everything is obvious with the us more or less trying to relinquish its dominant driving force in the world economy and do with this true protectionism china is trying to find an alternative to the dollar and of course the gold has been a safe haven for thousands of years so it makes perfect sense shores up the banking system help stabilize it in the event of some sort of a liquidity problem burley's to some dependency on the dollar they're looking forward to a future where there are a kind of marginal decoupling from the us economy and that involves the dollar what's interesting to me is wondering whether or not china and russia too are imagining the possibility of a world in which the dollar is no longer your going to be the world reserve currency that's going to not have that tomorrow or next year but over the next 5 or 10 years under the current trends we can see something very interesting happen and china wants to be well positioned i'm sure you and your colleagues are already tracking this trend it's already priced in as you say but is china's reaction going to keep movin

s the united kingdom's most important strategic assets would be dominated at least indirectly by beijing the communist government there remember a few years ago frankfurt the stock market operator here tried to merge with the london stock exchange the deal finally did not happen because london refused to be dominated by the germans it's very very doubtful whether the proud people in the city of london would prefer to be dominated by the communist government in china instead for frankfurt the market operator here and also of course for euro next to the other big market operator on the european continent such a deal would mean a huge new competitor at especially in terms of i.p.o.'s you know initial public offerings so something that people here are not particularly looking forward to certainly would be a game changer but it's not yet written in stone and frank said thank you. and in another part of frankfurt the world's car industry is currently gathered at the frankfurt also show with german car makers show cases new electric models asian manufacturers however have a lower profile this y

to merge with the london stock exchange this deal eventually failed because london refused to be dominated by the germans it's very very doubtful that the proud people in the city of london would prefer to be dominated by communist china. and of course this is this did also could affect the frankfurt stock exchange itself. yes of course it would affect frankfurt not only because a large a super large new player would emerge on the market a large competitor for frankfurt and for all of the market operators on the european continent but also because a deal which the frankfurt stock exchange might try to make recently and we failed would become a possibility again i'm talking about griffin it is which is a large data provider owned by thomson reuters a while ago frankfurt tried to take over parts of refuted but this deal failed because the london stock exchange came out with a higher takeover bid for the whole of ricin a tive now with this deal hong kong land on london becoming a possibility it's become ming also probable that rif initiative would be put on the market again and that of course

and his tea m and that dominic cummings and his team and boris johnson and that dominic cummings andeam and borisjohnson 519, did they have more tricks up their sleeve or will it have to be a general election? we have seen a lot of the kind of tricks that exist being talked about already with regards the bell and the bait tricks, the government has a big sleeve controlling parliamentary time. in a number of amendments being put down in the lords trying to filibuster this out. he learned strength to filibuster it and there are talks about the government is trying to withhold royal assent and we have seenin withhold royal assent and we have seen in the vote today that has just passed the rebels trying to guard against that by putting in privations that would say that the house could carry on sitting essentially on a day where royal assent with both parts of the house and lloyds, can all get through and they are thinking about what the other side might do but ultimately we will still come back to what happens with brexit and there is still a ticking clock and there are three options, de

nd dominated a very disappointing scotland side.performance. the first—half of the lads took the chances really well, there were a couple of opportunities in the first half and second half we need to brush up on but it was a great performance all around. it is important we recover now for next week. england also scored 4 tries in a comfortable win over tonga. 35—3 the final score there, but they should have scored more. 0ur sports correspondent andy swiss was at the game. well, this was ultimately a comfortable victory for england, four tries, the bonus point, but not always a convincing performance. they went into this match as one of the favourites and were expected to have far too much for tonga, but it certainly wasn't easy for them at first. two tries, though, from manu tuilgai, put england in control at half—time, when they led 18—3. come the second half, they extended that lead thanks to two further tries from luke cowan—dickie and jamie george, but a lot of handling errors, a view nerves perhaps in the england team. they got

and we should be hearing from dominic raab in an extreme on —— in the next few moments.'s pledge to put billions of pounds into hospital projects across england. the proposals include a £2.7 billion investment for six hospitals, over five years and a new approach to mental health treatment, to be trialled in 12 areas, across the country. earlier ,we heard from anita charlesworth, director of research and economics at the health foundation. it is a big investment in one sense, on top of theresa may's investment last year, which was for day—to—day running costs of the nhs. but, although it sounds like a lot of money, we have had so many years of underinvestment in our hospital infrastructure, that actually, rather than spending £2.7 billion across the next five years, you would almost certainly need to spend £2.7 billion a year, for the next five years, to really modernise the physical infrastructure of the health service. and nhs doesn'tjust need buildings, it needs computers, people may well remember the virus last year and it needs things like mri and ct scanners which

mr mugabe dominated his country for decades.e independence struggle against white minority rule and then himself ruled zimbabwe for 37 years. his early achievements in broadening access to health and education for the black majority were later marred by violence and economic collapse. shingai nyoka reports from the capital, harare. he was once zimbabwe's liberator, leading a war against white minority rule. but by the end, the adulation president robert mugabe once enjoyed was gone. i, robert gabriel mugabe... he cemented his power winning overwhelmingly at elections in 1980. as leader of a new nation, he set about creating a better country than the one he inherited. he spent massively on education and infrastructural development, building a thriving black middle class and one of the most literate populations on the continent. but there was a vicious, ruthless side to the statesman. between 1983 and 1987, mugabe deployed a military unit trained by the north koreans to deal with his political opponents in the south of the country

well, we're seeing that quiet spell of weather certainly dominating for the next few days.efits the season, overnight. that's the way the pressure chart is shaping up for tuesday — high pressure very much the dominant feature. quite a number of isobars you'll notice as we get on into tuesday. thejetstream is coming up and around the atlantic high and sweeping down into the heart of continental europe, offering some more unsettled fare there and certainly colder conditions as well than we're enjoying here in the british isles. a coolish sort of start to the day, but come the afternoon, plenty of sunshine around. the temperatures again, the midteens or so up to about 20 degrees. just tempering the sunshine late on in the day as we bring a warm front in from the atlantic. it'll still be there as we move from tuesday on into wednesday. enough cloud associated with that for there to be the odd bit and piece of rain, primarily across the northern half of scotland. elsewhere, it's going to be a really decent sort of day. by the stage, the high pressure will have moved just suffici
