it was a turning point in the civil war, and this is where ibrahim lincoln gave the most important speech in his -- abraham lincoln gave the most important speech in his career. battle?did lee lose the experts have been trying to answer that question. why did lee lose the battle? we will talk about that in the book talk tonight. the other unanswered question is , why didn't george meade defeat robert e. lee after the victory at gettysburg? those are the tow unanswered unanswered- two questions that remain. historians are sorting out the answers. this book attempts to answer some of those questions. when lee retreated, after his meade in 1863, and when pursued. we will talk about both aspects. there were two commanders in the army, one 56-year-old robert e lee, military officer, once considered so prominent abraham lincoln offered him command of the union army. he turned it down, preferring to raise his sword for family and home in virginia. he made the confederate army with stonewall jackson and long street and brought many victories. but he would face his greatest defeat. shelby foot onc

hania, a little bit shy, lived in grenfell with her sister, her mum, rania ibrahim, who also died, andf the quiet one. and if she said something, you would cherish it. this was hania. she loved art, and i realise that about her... their cousin mourns the future they dreamed of. fethia, i believe, wanted to be a teacher. she was really bossy.

the images of screenshots of some of those sites that proliferated this quote unquote news this is ibrahim hindy and he says that's me in that picture and i've never even been to texas before so the claim was that mosques weren't opening up their doors to survivors of the hurricane and in reality the pictures they took were of someone who one wasn't in houston and two the name of the mosque also questionable if it is a place in houston so is this a case of using geolocation to find out where that mosque is is this a reverse image search to find out who the person is how do you sort through this. so there are kind of three main checks that you need to look for the first one being kind of the source so when you see somebody tweet and a piece of information is on facebook looking at their digital footprint who are they would do they seem trustworthy would you expect them to be in that place double checking the date and then doing locations that thing but it really is thinking about kind of becoming a shell of homes you're looking for all the different clues the pieces of the puzzle and cross

joining me now is ufi ibrahim, the chief executive of the british hospitality association.hospitality industry has been kicking up today but you would say that because, in a sense, a lot of what you do survives on cheap labour and a lot of european nationals are prepared to come and work for the lowest wages within the law. the prime minister talked today about depressing wages by employing eu nationals but there is no evidence to support that and in fact the evidence suggests otherwise. the truth is that in the united kingdom at the moment we have the lowest level of unemployment that we have had for the past a0 years. any further southern or material change to the supply of labour to the uk workforce would be significantly damaging for an industry that already find it very difficult to find people to actually employed here in the workforce. perhaps it is because the conditions are not attractive enough in that there is not enough support and training and i would put it that perhaps the hospitality industry has been quite lazy because they're rather half a million unemploy
