iam, and i am, and indeed iam, and indeed i think i am, and indeed i think most commentators, whetherfromft or the right will be extremely surprised at the manner in which prime minister trudell raised this issue in parliament, given that he was in india a few days ago that he had not quite a bilateral but a follow up with prime minister modi. —— in which prime minister trudeau raised this issue... if there was some concern that canada had, when would assume that this would've done bilaterally with the head of another country, which is a friend. so it did surprise almost anyone who has been observing india, canada relations, even though we knew that the relations where turning frosty, but for the prime minister of canada had to do so in a manner in which he did in the canadian house of commons has left us baffled, especially because none of the evidence seems to has been shared with the government of india. its allegations right now, and those allegations are really astounding indians and indiana because indians are sensitive about the callous danny issue, the issue of separate states. th

iam bound... that's the point. well...r un official, agree that right now, the way the un security council works, the system of permanent five having a right of veto, which goes back to the settlement after the second world war, and the big powers carving up sort of international power and domination... mmm. ..it is entirely inappropriate for the 21st century, is it not? it's not working. but the humanitarian world does not depend on the security council for all its operations. in fact, there are many humanitarian agencies — the red cross, msf and others — who, as a matter of principle, do not want the security council to discuss humanitarian issues. and i have a lot of sympathy with that. for that reason, i was one of those... i wasn't in the un at the time, but years ago, when the security council first agreed to provide support for aid into northwest syria, i was one of those who didn't agree with that, on a personal basis. i wasn't in any office, as i now am. but for me, we are not depending on the security council for

actually, iam having a whale of a time.t no secret that in the past, robots like this have left me very cold. they were misleading, speaking pre—prepared answers, and giving the impression that we're on the verge of an ai revolution. however... it's definitely an exciting time to be alive. are you alive? depends on your definition of alive. i'm certainly kicking along. laughs. ..since chatgpt, everything has changed and this robot is not being puppeteered. it's genuinely the mouthpiece of a large language model chat programme that is responding live to my unrehearsed questions. how does bob marley like his doughnuts? bob marley likes his doughnuts with a little bit ofjammin�*. reggae music plays. desdemona here has been trained on science fiction authors, so i've been told to have some fun with it. if you could, would you lock all the humans away and run the world yourself? well, i'm not sure if i'm ready to take on that responsibility just yet. i think my line of questioning says more about my mindset than yours, to be hon

iam a very warm welcome to the programme. i am sally bundock.ioning today after being arrested on their return to the uk last night. the three adults went to pakistan the day before the 10—year—old's body was found in woking last month. they returned voluntarily. our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford has the latest.

he said, "yeah, as a human, iam, "but the next question immediately is, "am i ready to stop doing whating his head like a stubborn bull and saying, "no, there is no way they make me "stop my activity." and i can only repeat this about myself, after all these cases, after boris being murdered, navalny and kara—murza being imprisoned and poisoned and so on. you now, of course, you face your own situation. you are a wanted man by the moscow authorities. indeed, i believe you've also now been convicted and will be, if you ever were to go back, you would be spending some time in prison for spreading fake news about the russian military. so it surely is a situation you have to think about very carefully, not just for yourself, but your family. this is right, and i spent some time in prison. i spent over a month in total. russian prison is no fun, but that made me even angrier. so i think i wake up every day thinking what i can do more to do damage to vladimir putin's brutal, dictatorial regime, so that only... these risks only motivate me to work more and be more effective in this way. you u

iam standing i am standing at the main square in yerevan, the capital of armenia. riot police protecting the centre of the government in armenia building which also houses the offices of the prime minister. it has come under a lot of opposition and protests for allegedly not doing enough to protect their armenian brethren in karabakh. last night there were about 10,000 people here are doing for the prime minister to resign. we expect another day of demonstration in less than three hours from now and the police are basically preparing for that. the fact is there is plenty of concern here for there is plenty of concern here for the security of the armenians within karabakh and the fear tens of thousands of them might be heading this way and we're sure whether the armenian government are prepared to receive so many refugees. what are the government saying in response to some of this criticism? 0bviously they don't take this criticism. we had the prime minister yesterday making a televised speech, basically blaming in a way russia for not doing enough. don't forget, th

iam back in course we're following what's happening in libya. i am back in a few minutes' time.re. it's all change weather—wise this week. it's often going to be wet and windy. what about those storms last night that we saw? well, in swindon we had basically a month's worth of rainfall in one hour. there have been reports of flooding from thunderstorms over the last 2a hours. for example, in parts of devon, pretty badly affected here. now, this week, as i say, is going to be unsettled. it's down to a strong jet stream blasting across the atlantic at 150mph. this strong jet stream spawns areas of low pressure that then get squirted away eastwards across the uk, hence the wet and windy weather conditions. today, weather—wise, we've seen a band of rain pushing its way eastwards across england and scotland. it's a day essentially of sunshine and showers. the showers quite frequent across west scotland and northern ireland. bigger gaps between the showers across wales and western england, so there will be some places that stay entirely dry this afternoon, but it will stay quite breez

iam carl i am carl nasman and washington, dc. right here on bbc news. hello there. temperatures have been creeping up day—by—day and on thursday we saw the warmest day of the year so far in wisley in surrey. 32.6 celsius, rounding up to 33 degrees. now, most places ended thursday on a dry, warm and muggy note, but some pretty ferocious thunderstorms, northern ireland through scotland have been raging. they will continue to clear the way northwards of the early part of friday and then we'll start to see some low cloud, mist and fog rolling in off the north sea, affecting eastern scotland and northeast england. a very warm and muggy nights come for all areas, particularly across the south. so we start off with this grey, misty, foggy weather across eastern scotland through the firth of forth and across northeast england. it will gradually burn back to the north sea coast as we move through the morning. so sunshine will make an appearance here fairly quickly, but for most it's another dry, sunny and hot and humid day. a bit of high
