that was eric grove there.oday visiting british armed forces at a nato base, and was asked about the cobham deal. a lot of czechs have gone through to make sure that in particular case all the security issues that might be raised and be satisfied and the uk will continue to be a very, very creative and dynamic contributor to that section of industry and all others. boris johnson was also asked why he felt his visit to estonia was important to. i am here to support oui’ important to. i am here to support our troops because they are doing an amazing job. this is an enhanced forward presence, so we have got armoured infantry here, 850 uk troops showing that we support dystonia, we support the outer boundaries of nato. these troops are giving the whole continent protection, support, a guarantee of their security and quite an amazing thing to see. when i was younger, this was part of the soviet union and this is now the guarantee, the uk is providing the guarantee for security for the whole continent, particularly h

eric grove is a visiting fellow at the international institute for strategic studies and says it's not be a security risk... well, of course, it is an american company, and were so closely integrated with the united states, i mean, the f35‘s carried by our aircraft carriers, in fact, our aircraft carriers will be carrying a us marine corps aircraft as well as raf slash fleet air arm aircraft on the first deployment. so, in fact, having an american company taking over is not really a tremendous security risk because we're so integrated anyway, and cobham in fact have more sites in the us than they have in britain. i was going to say, i think, looking at the figures, it's 10,000 people employed by cobham around the world, 1700 of them in the uk. i think its main base is dorset in this country. but in terms of the importance of the technology, how significant is the air to air refuelling capacity? well, very significant indeed. i mean, obviously in—flight refuelling is an important part of any country'saviation capability. but on the other hand, we are so dependent on the americans anywhe

eric grove is a visiting fellow at the international institute for strategic studies. inflight refuelling technology is. it is very significant indeed. 0bviously in—flight refuelling is an important part of any country's aviation capability but on the other hand, we are so dependent on the americans anyway that i don't really see this makes a huge amount of difference. we are very heavily integrated already, probably even more so after we leave the eu, so i am not too concerned. i can understand why the cobham family are a bit concerned about this because this was very much a british initiative, in—flight refuelling was very much pioneered by cobham, but i don't see this being a great problem. in fact, we are so integrated with the united states anyway that this is just an additional, just a slight change in the balance. a mother and her partner have appeared in court in belfast, accused of murdering a 5—year—old girl. nadia zofia kalinowska, was discovered at the family home in newton abbey, in the early hours of last sunday. her mother — aleksandra wahab and stepfath

eric davenport and i also love that tree. my wife and i have been living at 1850 grove street for almost ten years now. and i speak for everybody in the building right now. we are all opposed to this. specifically one reason for me is it terrifies me because of the fire, and i know everyone is saying that but on the fourth of july, 2017, one of the backyards caught on fire. it was sparklers or fireworks or something. my wife and i happened to be looking out the window at the sky and all of a sudden we see some stuff fall down and then, boom, it goes up really, really fast, about ten feet high, i would say, i'm guessing. but luckily it was a still night. the fire burned itself out. it didn't get over the fences. but if there was a breeze, all those backyards would have been up. and anyone living in a place like this would be surrounded by fire with no way out at that point. so this terrifies me. all seven people in my building are way against it. and thank you for your time. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> my name is jarvis rich. thank you for the opportunity to speak. i i live at 637 masonic. it
