ifi emerging from iran and a number of western countries? and a number of western countries? ifi can update you, yes, the ukrainian president appealed for this intelligence and information that the us, canada and united kingdom have sharing amongst themselves since last night, and it appears that that data has now been passed over to the ukrainians. perhaps a bit of a surprise that it has taken so long and a public request for it to happen. but in the last few minutes the ukrainian foreign minister has tweeted that the ukrainian president has met with embassy officials here in kyiv this morning and that data has been handed over. one would assume that thatis handed over. one would assume that that is the same intelligence which suggest that the surface—to—air missile was behind the downing of the plane. ukraine well of course have to digest and a look at that information for itself, but as you said, this morning the line was very much a shoots down by a surface—to—air missile was one of the options that ukraine was looking at, but they did n

then, they put isla on the stats machine andl they put isla on the stats machine and i rememberasking ifiand they said yes and i remember holding her hand, as i let go, it kind of went limp so i blame myself because i didn't alert anybody and it actually transpires that was actually isla losing life without us realising at the time, she was slowly fading away. which had quite a big impact on me because i blame myself for well over a year, that i didn't alert anybody or do anything. but you were surrounded by medics, i mean, for goodness' sake, you...asa medics, i mean, for goodness' sake, you as a dad, you always try and ta ke you as a dad, you always try and take ona you as a dad, you always try and take on a protective role and you feel like you have let your family down and you've not protected your children in the way that you should have done. but due to what stacey said about rainbows supporting me and giving me counselling, i've got through that and i realise it wasn't my fault. there's come all the people to blame and it's definitely not us, it's one of them things.|j will read yo
