dominic raab was read that policy on bbc breakfast — to which this was his reply.that he visited. the hospital meanwhile, responded to someone on twitter who asked "why didn�*t you tell the prime minister to wear a mask7". it replied... "please be assured that infection prevention and control remains an utmost priority.. which isn�*t quite the same as �*anyone attending our hospitals must continue to wear a face covering at all times�* — as its website says. this was the moment the prime minister was given a mask to put on. mask on! come on. thank you. mask on! come on! the prime minster says — before he enters a vaccination hub. for some though wearing a mask for some of the visit was not good enough. this is claire williams of the union unison. if you are the prime minister, it�*s important to show leadership and we think he should have worn a facemask. out of respect to the hospital staff who are really going above and beyond during the pandemic, and that message of being an effective way to keep people safe and reduce the transmission. to which number 10 says t

justice secretary, dominic raab, says he hopes harper's law will be passed "as soon as possible".by early next year. june kelly reports. just four weeks after his wedding in 2019, pc andrew harper was killed. and since his killers were convicted, his widow lissie and his family have been campaigning for harper's law. they've been supported by the police federation of england and wales, which represents rank—and—file officers. last year, lissie harper spoke about the campaign. if a person should go out to commit a crime, and as a result of that crime, a police officer, nurse, doctor, paramedic, or police... sorry, prison officer, should be killed as a result of that crime, then this person should spend their life in prison. the campaign has taken lissie harper to the heart of government. and ministers have now announced there will be a mandatory life sentence for anyone convicted of killing an emergency worker while committing a crime. it's not just it's notjust the individual case but it's also the fact that in the last year 10,000 convictions for assaults on emergency workers hav

tony hudgell might be in the presence of the deputy prime minister, justice secretary dominic raab, butt then seven—year—old tony hudgell isn't daunted by anything. what does this do? it's his fearlessness and energy that has so inspired his parents. paula and mark hudgell have been campaigning for tony's law — tougher sentences for people convicted of child cruelty. and at this meeting, they are finding out that the government is going to act. tony was just a few weeks old when he suffered horrific injuries. his doctors feared he wouldn't survive. he had been abused by his biological parents. he'd suffered multiple organ failure, septicaemia and fractures to both thighs, lower legs, ankles, toes and thumbs. his legs had to be amputated. paula and mark hudgell began looking after him when he was four months old. i broke down in tears, absolutely sobbed and thought, "i can't do this." but within two hours of being with him, there was no way i was going to leave him. this is tony with his biological parents, tony smith and jodie simpson. in 2018, they were convicted of causing serious phy

lucy harper there, pc andrew harper's widow meeting dominic raab.o it is a golden season when it comes to the economy. before the pandemic, around a third of us came to events like this to spend and to enjoy ourselves, and altogether, that was worth about £500 million to the uk economy, but since brexit, of course, fewer european traders have been able to come in, and there is, of course, that massive gap in the workforce. let's talk... ..then, get rid of one of our little friends — james — one of the organisers. good to see you. what is the public mood like for events like this at the moment? massive, we are now back in our spiritual home at the designer outlet with yorkshire's winter wonderland, 730 days since we were last here and people have missed it, people have genuinely missed that family experience. they didn't have a christmas last year, so we are finding there is a vast appetite for people to come back, shop, obviously, and then have an integrated experience — go skating, go to the cafe, go to the funfair, see santa, all the things you do

however he was defended earlier today by dominic raab. i've got total faith.nprecedented majority. he has led the way with the vaccine roll—out which has been a huge success both within europe but also globally. and of course he is as restless as i am and the rest of the parliamentary party are to get on with focusing on the bread—and—butter quality—of—life issues that people care about, and we're starting today with this massive investment in rail infrastructure in the north which is going to be so important for the businesses and quality—of—life for those in the midlands, the north, and indeed the whole country. and what is the plan that politicians have voted on and agreed, that there is a new plan to limit the outside work they can do? i think plan is putting it a bit too grandly. they have kick—started a process which has now been handed to the commons standards committee which is made up of mps and lay members from outside parliament. they will look at ideas for this stuff. they were already drafting a new code of conduct for mps, guidance, rules to outs

it was not quite a full throated defence l not quite a full throated defence from dominic raab of sir been no response so no so far, but the story keeps rolling on and becoming increasingly awkward for the government, four mps who do second jobs and there are those questions over the balance between mps who have their role as members of parliament and representing the constituents and those outside jobs that many have, and the question with sir geoffrey cox is whether he has basically neglected hisjob cox is whether he has basically neglected his job as an mp to spend more time being a lawyer? advice like you, nick eardley. —— thank you, nick eardley. police say a ten—year—old boy has died after being attacked by a dog in south wales. 0ur wales correspondent tomas morgan is in caerphilly and gave me this update. we spoke to some of the residents that live here in penyrheol on the outskirts of caerphilly this morning, clearly very upset at the news that a ten—year—old living on this street here died tragically yesterday after being attacked by a dog. when paramedics arrived the boy was

by now, the foreign secretary was dominic raab. is she being held a hostage? back to the 19705, when the shah of iran ordered british tanks, but was then overthrown and many of the tanks weren't delivered. an international court ruled in 2009 that the uk owes £400 million. more recently, the uk had raised expectations that it would pay. this is the guardian in 2019 reporting that... now, certainly sanctions do make paying iran harder, but the us settled a similar debt in 2016, and the uk government currently led by borisjohnson resists connecting nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe and the money. the incarceration of british dual nationals, including nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe and others is a completely separate issue. the farmer foreign secretary, jeremy hunt, agrees with that, but argues that's precisely the reason to pay. but the uk has not paid in, and the government, while saying it's doing all it can, says responsibility for nazanin's release lies that iran alone. all of which brings us to the point which has been reached — with a mother facing prison again into ir

by now, the foreign secretary was dominic raab. is she being held a hostage? agrees with that, but argues that's precisely the reason to pay. but the uk has not paid in, and the government, while saying it's doing all it can, says responsibility for nazanin's release lies that iran alone. all of which brings us to the point which has been reached — with a motherfacing prison again into tehran, her daughter living thousands of miles away, a father not eating for weeks. in iran, there is a new, more hard—line president with his own agenda to pursue, and there are new efforts to revive the iran nuclear deal and to reset how iran and the west interact, which is why nazanin's fate is tangled up in iran's place in the world. the route out is complex — but diplomacy often is. and, afterfive years, the uk hasn't found a way through this. and, while these two countries manoeuvre on the world stage, years of family life are being lost. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and nina warhurst. coming up, we will be checking in with owain as he hits the final hour of his dr
