mike mcclelland is a director at the probation institute, hejoins us from devizes in wichester.ion officers and probation staff who are involved with that, but you are completely independent gazelle of we are indeed an independent body, we've been working with the community rehabilitation companies over the past three years since the contracts we re past three years since the contracts were let. see you have your ear on the ground, what went wrong? what's your analysis? in the first instance, the whole project that was introduced was —— with undue haste, many organisations told the government that they can't introduce these policies within two years from announcing, it was unrealistic. and the contracts that were let were let on calculations which were incorrect. so the community rehabilitation companies have not been receiving the amount of work they expected in the first instance. there are lots of questions about this that we would all love the speech of the government about, but they have close for the summer. i'm sure it's a coincidence, but are you saying it is the governm

lets speak to yesper blomqvist, who was at the sweden match on saturday, hejoins us from stockholm.onal anthem was fantastic to listen to, so many english people singing with it along with me. not as many swedes, already there you felt it would be hard for sweden. commiserations, i thought sweden did brilliantly well in the world cup. where do you think they slipped up? i think it was maybe a little bit too big a game and mentally they we re too big a game and mentally they were not capable of seizing the moment, because they had been doing so well, but that game in the quarterfinals, it was maybe a little bit too much and they looked to be a bit too much and they looked to be a bit more tired than english players. when we needed that extra intensity, one we were chasing 1—0 up, we did not have anything else to put in. i think england really deserve to win in the end, definitely. think england really deserve to win in the end, definitelylj think england really deserve to win in the end, definitely. i am sure that after ritchie watched the croatia — russia match on television. having

can speak to one man who was there that very night — tony dorigo, member of the 1990 england squad, hejoinsy. i am very excited. brings back a lot of memories as well, some good ones and lots of good ones. we got very, very close to doing something extreme especial. we do not quite manage it, the game yesterday, watching that, proud of the england boys, i thought they played magnificently. what an opportunity, like everyone else, excited. how do you deal with those nerves? as pa rt of how do you deal with those nerves? as part of the squad, you knew the country back home, what they were thinking, how the fans were feeling, how did you deal with that pressure asa how did you deal with that pressure as a squad? it is increasingly certainly in this day and age, the pressure is absolutely huge. i think with social media as well, that much closer. we we re very media as well, that much closer. we were very much locked away as a group and made sure that we recovered, that is the first thing, then prepared well. but trying to keep calm is difficult and i think that this state of the tournament as

the committee investigating fur trade in the uk is chaired by neil parish, and hejoins us now from bristoln you ta ke joining us. good morning. can you take us through the key findings of this report, first of all? well, the key findings are we took evidence from camden market and there is a lot of fur being traded as fake fur, but it really is real fur. one of the real problems is that it seems to be coming in from china. a lot of very low quality and poor animal welfare fur farming, and so very low quality and poor animal welfare furfarming, and so fur is cheap and it is coming in instead of fa ke cheap and it is coming in instead of fake fur. so our findings very much we re fake fur. so our findings very much were trading standards need to take much firmer action. also the companies themselves, several times they have been caught out. it is all right if they get caught out once, it is understandable, but two or three times and they need to have much greater checks. so i think it is sky news, bbc and the humane society who also brought evidence to us. and we are keen now to make sure tha

i think he can still speak this morning and hejoins us from moscow.y martin keown, part of our team here, and a man who has played at two world cups and knows what it is like to be on the wrong side of a penalty shoot—out. can you describe the emotion from someone who has been there and done it before? well, you had the feeling it was going to be one of those nights yet again. 2002! was sat with gareth southgate after the disappointment meet and when it ends, it ends in a big hurry. and i thought we were magnificent, the way we dealt with the provocation from colombian players: it was almost mob rule, the referee had lost control. and then suddenly again we get another pie in ourface suddenly again we get another pie in our face with conceding a late header. eric dier, the pressure that was on that young man at the end for his penalty — quite magnificent. we are only two steps away from a world cup final, it is quite remarkable. it is easy to get carried away. coming out of the ground last night everybody was saying, it is coming home! we have seen th

our correspondent is in derbyshire and hejoins us now. these are horrifying conclusions.ttle bit about what the report says. it is a deeply disturbing report. this comes out of something called operation talia. it was launched in 2015 after a number of reports that concerned this hospital. this was a psychiatric hospital. this was a psychiatric hospital that dealt with young children with behavioural problems. what they said was that they had been abused. they had been abused by psychiatrist doctor kenneth milner. they claimed that he had stripped them, given them a truth drug and then physically and sexually abused them. what we now no today is that those claims were true. they have recorded 77 crimes. most of those sexual in nature and identified 65 victims who were 12 or 13 or even 1a at the time. now, as we speak today, they are aged between 49 and 79. it is quite clear, the police say in their report, but if doctor milner we re their report, but if doctor milner were alive, there would be sufficient evidence to interview him under caution today. thank you. five men h
