foster children and foster care was one of my big projects. but i think the, it even gets worse if you talk about transitional age youth who are also lgbtq. because they are particularly vulnerable out on the streets. so just specific funding and specific mental health funding for their specific issues might i think help the problem. but we do have to bolster up as we are talking about public policy matters, which are not necessarily dealing with homeless, but dealing with the path to homelessness. you need to invest some money on what do aged-out youth in foster care go. the overwhelming majority of them and i don't have the specifics at the tip of my fingertips, either enter the homeless system or the criminal justice system. when we've put a child in foster care, i spent some time in dependency court in my early career. when we put a kid into foster care, we become their parent and we are just doing a horrible job of it based upon the numbers at foster care. so i think we ought to put some money into when they're getting ready to age out so

theresa may was faced down by arlene foster and borisjohnson has been having talks with arlene fosterck off and we come back to the point that for the dup this is not just another negotiation. the point that for the dup this is notjust another negotiation. this is their lifeblood. this is the lifeblood and where they stand so they are not going to be rushed into backing something they believe threatens their fundamental purpose, which is to ensure that northern ireland remains part of the union. and if they think this deal threatens that, they will not sign up, and it doesn't matter how hard borisjohnson tries to push them into it, so my guess is he will have to come up with some kind of significant shift to meet their concerns, but the danger is you lose brussels and dublin. i would urge a bit of caution despite every body saying it's a deal. i'm getting notifications on my phone saying a brexit deal has been agreed between the eu and the uk. for those tuning injust now, the eu and the uk. for those tuning in just now, it's worth going over what has happened in the last few minutes.

we have had very strong objections from the dup leader arlene foster.onciling the two positions of the irish government and the dup, has always been one of the major challenges through the specs and negotiating process. there's different positions expressed this afternoon to show how far there is to travel. to underline that, chris, amid all the talk of progress and all the rest of it, when you put it that way and talk about the issue around customs checks, when you talk about the issue of the role of the stormont assembly, if and when it is back in action, it is very difficult to see action, it is very difficult to see a way around that, which is an a cce pta ble a way around that, which is an acceptable compromise. yes and today we have seen more discussion now that more people have had time to digest the details of the british proposals. about the role of stormont. the stormont assembly has not been sitting for more than 2.5 yea rs not been sitting for more than 2.5 years since power—sharing between the democratic unionist party and sinn fein collaps

all the focus here is on the dup, watching very carefully that tweet from arlene foster. expect that the taoiseach, by speaking to boris johnson expect that the taoiseach, by speaking to borisjohnson on expect that the taoiseach, by speaking to boris johnson on the phone this morning, that there was some issues involving the dup that still had to get across the line. this is a very big call for the dup, a very big moment for them, a very big day for them. they find themselves in a position of being supporting a government in london and also having to make this very big call. 0n the one hand, you know, it very difficult balancing act, i guess, between satisfying their vote rs guess, between satisfying their voters in the run—up to a likely general election. they find themselves in a bit of a bizarre situation when they are at odds with some of their constituency because we have had businesses and farmers groups in the north supporting the deal that was already there, which theresa may sorted. this was a very big call for the dup to make. any tension or any nervousness on t

there was no, —— arlene foster.is was, thereby, and yet they are agreeing to it anyway. i was a price likely by how quickly it was done this many. we had that dup statement probably, i think it was about 6:45am, and then just a number of hours later, the eu and uk come at they have a deal. assisting at my negotiating time?|j assisting at my negotiating time?” spoke to a number of senior eu council official today and are said to things. one, this is nearly 60 hours of talks. 12 men and women, technical negotiators in the building just obstacles up it is going on until two o'clock in the morning for the past three days. i think if anybody was a bit today, not necessarily leaders, it will be about... those men and women in that room were public, job well done. if anybody has these negotiators, they are the ones to date. the other message in the eu is this, there will be no caveat today, no sense of big event comes up, but you have to get a deal in westminster on super saturday. this survey straight, we will let you spe

catherine foster.: there are so many different aspects about this that americans simply are not aware of. are not aware that emanation -- that our nation is one of the most radical nations in the world for abortion laws. know theicans do not extent to which roe v. wade legalized abortion in america, really all nine months for virtually any reason. they don't realized what happened. behind the closed doors, the conditions in these facilities, in so many cases, and the lack of informed consent, which i experienced when i asked to see my ultrasound that they were already performing. i said let me see my ultrasound, medical records, and it was denied. sot is the kind of thing many americans do not know. as americans learn these things, as americans start viewing more ultrasounds, learning about the science and technology and the advances we are seeing in our world today, so many more are increasingly pro-life. whether or not they call themselves pro-life, they support basic restrictions, whether it is oppo

mrs foster has accused borisjohnson of breaking commitments he gave at the event last year. crucial ten votes to passing the withdrawal agreement... to passing the withdrawal agreement. 0n brexit, we will not give support to the government, when we believe they are fundamentally wrong and acting ina they are fundamentally wrong and acting in a way that is detrimental to northern ireland and taking us on the wrong direction. we will oppose them and we will use our vote to defeat them, and let me say clearly from this platform today that we wa nt to from this platform today that we want to support a deal, a deal that works for the whole of the united kingdom and which does not leave northern ireland behind. but without change, we will not vote for the prime minister's agreement. it would be bad for northern ireland economically and will weaken the foundations of this great united kingdom. the brexit secretary says there will not be northern ireland to great britain paperwork, then he says they will. the prime minister says they will. the prime minister says they will not be ch
