my guest is speaker of the house of commons, sir lindsay hoyle. on his watch, is parliament properly serving the people? sir lindsay hoyle, welcome to hardtalk. thank you. you are about to celebrate _ four years in thejob of speaker of the house of commons. and it has to be said that during your tenure, the public trust in politicians appears to have plumbed new depths. why is that? i think we inherited a situation where the country was divided, but notjust a division of the country north—south — far from it. what we saw was division within families, which you don't normally see, and brexit was so toxic for all, whichever side of the fence. you could have a household completely divided, and i think it divided trust in politicians and the belief in politicians. and you look back to that time and you think both sides were making claims that could never, ever be delivered. it was a very difficult time. and i genuinely believe that, you know, the british public�*s always been questionable of politicians. i accept that. but i think a lot of that trust w

that is true in terms of general election voting and the seats in the house of commons. needs mps in the house of commons on major political parties. you only have to look at the brexit party and indeed the uk before them to see a party that was at times relatively small —— you kick. it was able to boost its support and crucially exert influence over the major parties by representing the difference between success and failure in particular constituencies. i'm not suggesting thatis constituencies. i'm not suggesting that is necessarily a strategy that the green party would adopt in upcoming elections, but it does show how around a particular issue, it could, for instance, in years to come be the issue of environmental protection and change, influence can be gained. you protection and change, influence can be aained. ., ., , . , ., be gained. you mention in years to come, so be gained. you mention in years to come. so you _ be gained. you mention in years to come. so you do — be gained. you mention in years to come, so you do not _ be gained. you mention in years to come, s

earlier, mps and peers observed a minute's silence in the house of commons with the speaker , sir of hamber he unequivocally supported both british jews and muslims . he british jews and muslims. he also announced an extra £10 million in humanitarian aid for gaza , saying the palestinian gaza, saying the palestinian people are victims of hamas, too. addressing the british jewish community directly , the jewish community directly, the prime minister said the government's doing everything it can to protect them. we stand with you now and always . with you now and always. >> this atrocity was an existential strike at the very idea of israel as a safe homeland for the jewish people . homeland for the jewish people. i understand why it has shaken you to your core , and i am you to your core, and i am sickened that anti—semitic incidents have increased since the attack . we are doing the attack. we are doing everything that we can to protect you . protect you. >> well, the prime minister has also been busy visiting a jewish secondary school in north london this morning. he reassured student

just to whizz you through what we've heard house of commons, heard in the house of commons, we richardomising £20 million worth of aid gaza. that's proved of aid to gaza. that's proved controversial. people wondering whether will just whether or not that will just find way into the hands of find its way into the hands of hamas. he's also saying that israel has a right israel massively has a right to defend itself if he went on as well, say britain well, to say that britain definitely believes now that the rocket hit, that hospital definitely believes now that the rocket killing that hospital definitely believes now that the rocket killing civilianspital definitely believes now that the rocket killing civilians is al definitely believes now that the rocket killing civilians is was in gaza killing civilians is was almost definitely fired from within gaza itself. almost definitely fired from within gaza itself . and that within gaza itself. and that misreporting of that incident at the time had a negative impact to world affairs. keir starmer then stood up and said that for his part, he t

every single m p in the house of commons and every person in the canadian parliament spent given 2 standing ovations to somebody who was presented as this as the fighting a fighting russian during world war 2. which of course means the aligning with the nazis. so yeah, i mean it's, it's a, it slows out of this. as caitlin johnson put at no one who fought russians could possibly be bad. that's the kind of perspective that dominates no, i'm, i'm very critical of, of russian policy and ukraine today. but this is a far, far more complicated more a jewel political situation. and basically the european union and the canadian government, the german government, of course, the german official at the house of commons. i also stood in give a standing ovation to tomeka, and they're all just kind of completely on board with the needle proxy war. and they're willing to support whatever forces within ukraine that are willing to keep fighting a keep fighting russia. and so this is um, this is just the other part of it, is you rehabilitate that the political article that you mentioned, which was really basi

nazi. in the country's parliament, during a meeting with the beggar zelsky, the speaker of the house of commonsnthony roto surprised him and declared the ninety -eight-year-old war criminal a war hero who fought against the russians for the independence of ukraine as part of the first ukrainian division and received a standing ovation. but the triumph was short-lived, details that caused active resentment. gonko, a former member of the galician volunteer division of the sss troops, which was staffed by ukrainian nationalists and not only fought against the red army, but was also noted for atrocities against jews, poles, and belarusian slovaks. but in real battles , the punitive division turned out to be completely inglorious. on july 22, 1944 , the battle of brody took place, during which soviet troops almost... completely destroyed the golichen henchmen fascism. this was the first and last major battle of the division. for ukraine, of course, praising its pro-nazi heroes is a common thing. every year there are processions held there in honor of the day of the creation of the golichyn, and they

perspectives on is raised ljy different perspectives on is raised by different mps from across the house of commons mps, the tory mp but also labour mps, richard and imran, as well as a green party mp, caroline lucas, all raising their concerns with the prime minister that while they condemned the actions of hamas, they argued that israel had been inflicting collective punishment on palestinian people and questioned whether israel's actions had been in line with international law. then you had from another perspective the conservative mp, michael ellis, asking the prime minister to agree with him that israel had followed international law. so clearly this is an issue that is increasingly dividing mps here in the house of commons. i think what was notable is that the prime minister did not answer that question directly, nor did the foreign secretary when asked about this on the weekend. many ministers are being incredibly careful what they say when asked whether or not they think israel has been complying with international law in its response to the attacks ljy law in its response to the attacks by

canadian parliament outraged even the canadian public itself, as a result, the speaker of the house of commons yaroslav hunka, resigned, and those who nearby gave a standing ovation to the nazi criminal, canadian prime minister trudeau and zelensky, hid behind the speaker, this is how vyacheslav volodin commented on the situation. trudeau must resign and bear responsibility for the rehabilitation of nazi propaganda, and izelensky must leave with him. a disgrace to the jewish people, the chairman of the state duma wrote in his telegram channel. he needs to tell the truth about what is happening in ukraine, co-chairman of the parliamentary commission on the investigation of crimes of the kiev regime against minors, anna kuznetsova, proposed to involve the special representative of the un secretary general on the issue of children and armed conflicts, virginia gamba, in the work. at the meeting, the vice speaker of the state duma reported that the commission was recording facts of the recruitment of children by the kiev regime. children are forced to either send photographs or coordinates of our

two state solution, and they've both been emphasizing that when this has been discussed in the house of commonsboth rishi sunak and sir keir starmer have urged a sort of reinvigoration of negotiations towards a two state solution. but obviously that is much easier said than done. that's the understatement of the century. and i think the the fact i mean, if you just look at the labour party where i think there is more division on this issue than there is in the conservative party at the moment, at least the fact that there are already these tensions we've been talking about over the labour party's position before the ground invasion we're assuming is going to take place, has even begun, i think suggests that those tensions could perhaps just be magnified rather than being shut down and eased over the coming days. goodbye from jersusalem. this is a day 19 of the conflict. now back to the studio in london. hello i'm lucy grey. also making news this hour... in the uk, hospitalfailings are still causing too many deaths from sepsis, ten years after a report highlighted steps to take to drastically re

this is something that labour raised in the house of commons today, as well. at is largely due to people still arriving in high numbers. again, the government has cut the rates of people arriving down since introducing more policing in france, more caseworkers and our returns agreement for migrants with albania. i think while that number remains very high, this issue of where to house people remains. if not in hotels, there is a further question of will other sites have to be used, student accommodation, foreign military bases or even purpose—built accommodation in the future? thank ou. thank you. to a story next that is one of the most read on the bbc news website. victims of violent and sexual crimes are calling for court transcript costs to be cut. one rape survivor has told bbc newsnight that she was quoted £7,500 for copes of her court hearings. live now to newsnight�*s uk editor, sima kotecha, who is in the newsroom. what have you discovered? over the last few weeks i have been speaking to several victims, including victims of rape and attempted murder, s
