effect that is visited on people like jess phillips and effect that is visitedel very sorry for and people are put under extreme pressure purely for having a different political view over the situation and that is not acceptable. we should be able to disagree, we should be able to have robust argument about positions, but it should not be a case where people that are affected in this way. i know that there are mps, very good friends of mine were genuinely concerned about their personal safety but more importantly, the safety but more importantly, the safety of their families and indeed those constituents that come to see them. we have with one of my colleagues, these far—away protesters coming up to one of the of eye surgeries and that is not good for anybody and encouraging the kind of behaviour by the actions of you have seen from borisjohnson and others over the past while this does not on. did you think that this was more severely directed against women, the actualfemale more severely directed against women, the actual female mps? more severely directed agai

thank you, mr speaker. —— jess phillips. just phillips. thank you, mr speaker. ——jess phillips., and what i found was everyone was to get to the same conclusion. i will wager that more so than the prime minister, i spent time in my constituency office, loving and laughing with my constituents, no matter what they voted. i do not wa nt to matter what they voted. i do not want to probe into the idea that we all get to and no doubt we are going to hear a lot of that today because we all get abuse and i‘ve had a death threat this week that literally quoted the prime minister that and use the prime minister does not words in a death threat that was delivered to my staff. we know that it gets out. what i want to look up to date on what i want answers to today is the one that is a clear strategy to divide, the use of language yesterday and over the past few weeks, such as the surrender bell, invoking a wall, talking about the trail and strategy —— betrayal and treachery. it is entirely designed to inflame hatred and division. i get it. it works. it is working. we are all ambitious, i‘m

jess phillips coming about, what will you do with this time? abuse bill, which will have dropped but now the justices have done us a favour and the bill is now back on the books and i will be working to make sure that things are like cross—examination of victims by their perpetrators in the family courts can no longer go on in our country. do you need a certain amount of time for that to be law? can you do it? who knows if the a nswer to can you do it? who knows if the answer to that. yes, we need a certain amount of time, you need committees and many bills to go through parliament. but if there is a will in that place, there is a ways away. we will be seeking a number of different ways to make sure at least second reading happens, so that if parliament falls again, for whatever reason, and there are so many different reasons, that it can then be restarted. alex, happy to see it back in action? boris overplayed his hand, i don't think i know what they gained. the bigger strategy is it gave people who want to reverse the democratic election resu

jess phillips faced criticism for her own behaviour.aming the loudest from her bench. so noticeable was it that she was actually having a conversation with one of the whips that was standing by the side of your chair, mr speaker. it was that which created a significant impression to people watching this debate of the hostility that the media reported. it was boris johnson who found himself most in the firing line. what should've happened yesterday is the prime minister should've have come in front of this house and apologised for acting unlawfully. he should've held his hands up, agreed he'd acted wrongly and pledged not to do it again. instead, he chose to brazen it out. the lib dem leader wanted an assurance. . . that there will be no deliberate campaign to use that kind of language to inflame. but i fear he cannot because the repeated use of those inflammatory words by the prime minister yesterday was, it seemed, very obviously deliberate. but the prime minister's supporters said his critics also had a plan. there is a strategy. the

jess phillips also said today that a man was arrested after trying to smash the windows of her constituencyfascist. britain's most senior official in brussels has weighed in — the eu comissionerjulian king. and criticism has also come from within the prime minister's own party — in the last hour the former prime ministerjohn major had this to say. we are poor the language of division and hate and word such as saboteur, traitor, enemy, traitor, betrayal. they should have no place in our party. no place in our political discourse, nor in our politics and i'ioi’ discourse, nor in our politics and nor in ourwider discourse, nor in our politics and nor in our wider society. i spoke with helen catt in westminster a little earlier. this is the morning after the night before. i don't think anyone is saying that this has not been the sort of anger awards cropping up in british politics before, british politics by its very nature, confrontational. even the way it is designed is very adversarial. but i do use to make sense that there is recognition in the comments that they may have reached a boiling

labour mp jess phillips who earlier accused the prime minister of deliberately ramping up the rhetorics a man has been arrested after trying to smash the windows of her constituency office in birmingham whilst allegedly shouting abuse. the mp said her staff had to be locked inside the office in birmingham while a man reportedly shouted "fascist" at them while hitting doors and windows. west midlands police have arrested a 36—year—old man in connection with the incident. and in the past 2a hours, as the government promises to ramp up security in parliament, a number of mps have tweeted about abuse that's been leveled at them. conservative mp maria caulfield revealed that her car tyres had been damaged with nails and screws for the second time. meanwhile, labour parliamentary assistant amelia rose tighe said she had had to report 35 death threats in one week. it came as the daughter of labour mp yvette cooper spoke out about the fear she now feels for her mother — ellie cooper said she's scared when she scrolls through the replies to her mother's tweets, calling her a liar and a traitor.

jess phillips and also a 2nd one on the issue of democracy. in britain that's to be discussed later on in the day also another thing that's going to be considered as well is where the conservative party whether the government will be able to be able to approve a another quick bergmann or not or not a program but a few days off from parliament so they can have their own tory conference later on in the month whether that will be approved by the rest of parliament is yet to be seen of course not many people perhaps in parliament willing to support a pos anything from boris johnson given his conduct on a choose date evening. so you go you go live from westminster thank you. hong kong's chief executive is g. to hear concerns from 150 citizens in a so-called community dialogue session beginning in the next few hours speaking were chosen from 20000 people who put their names forwards in an online ballots were kerry lamb is hoping the sessions will ends protests in hong kong that have been running for 16 weeks 9 rallies again turned violence over the

speaking to my colleague annita mcveigh, labour mp jess phillips has been reacting tojojohnson‘s decisionfamily and it must be incredibly difficult for him to have made this line in the sand which makes it, i suppose, all the more braver. i have to say i was a bit shocked when jo johnson supported his brother. it seems shocking, butjojohnson had left the government to support a people's vote, for the idea of brexit going back to the people. when he then said he was going to serve in borisjohnson‘s government and support him, i did think that was quite odd and that he would eventually find it too difficult because they do seem polar opposites on this issue. let's talk labour, away from the conservatives, and what the best strategy is. are you supportive of an election after the 31st of october? i am supportive of an election when i think that the direct issue that is facing us right now has been sorted. actually what we've seen over the last three days is parliament finally acting with consensus, getting things through the commons and working together like adults cross—party to govern the

jess phillips and also a 2nd one on the issue of democracy. in britain to be discussed later on in the day also another thing that's going to be considered as well is where the conservative party whether the government will be able to be able to approve a number. but few days off from parliament so they can have their own tory conference later on in the month whether that will be approved by the rest of parliament is yet to be seen of course not many people perhaps in parliament willing to support or pass anything from boris johnson given his conduct on choose day evening. the interim government is building the 1st mass detention center for people in the northeastern states. who are deemed to be illegal immigrants nearly $2000000.00 people and many of the muslim were left off the government's national registry of citizens which was published last month or that. has this report. it's a detention camp in the making aimed at housing some of the 1900000 people considered illegal immigrants in india about 450 laborers working on its construction si

jess phillips also faced criticism for her own behaviour.he was the person i could hear screaming the loudest from her bench, so noticeable was it that she was actually having a conversation with one of the whips that was standing by the side of your chair, mr speaker. it was that which created a significant impression to people watching this debate of the hostility that the media reported. but borisjohnson was the main target of opposition criticism. he should come to this house and apologise for his conduct yesterday, which fell well below the standards expected by the people of this country of the way their elected representatives should behave, should speak and should treat each other. we do need to bring a resolution to debates, and as the leader of the opposition will know, the government has been clear that we're prepared to take our arguments to the country on tuesday the 15th of october and ask the electorate to pass a judgement. and that would've given a chance to not only resolve the division affecting this house, but also to give

a labour mp will be here, jess phillips. good morning from bbc london. i'm victoria holland. the mayor is being urged to take more action to address rising levels of hate crime in the capital. around 19,000 offences were recorded by the met police last year — an average of about 50 a day. crimes against the trans community and the disabled have risen the most. biologists are working with fishermen in the thames estuary to save native oysters, which are on the verge of extinction. 0verfishing and disease are to blame for the demise of the delicacy, which has suffered a 95% decline in population over the past 200 years. native oyster beds are the most threatened marine habitat in europe. we have basically gone back to the last 5% of their numbers. we need to start restoring our marine habitats, and to do that we need interventions and this is one of the first of the kind in the country. we are repairing the seabed, we are putting the mature oysters on, we're protecting them by law so they cannot be taken and hopefully this wil

one of those to speak out during the heated commons exchanges last week was the labour mp jess phillips. we all use bad language, i mean no one could say that i am well—tempered at all times and i would never ever claim to be. what i think the problem is with what's happened with the prime minister over the past couple of weeks, is it that it is a direct strategy designed to divide. it isn't the use of the word surrender, no one is suggesting the word surrender is taken from the dictionary. what i don't want is the prime minister to be taking a strategy where his whole, like he will have tested the words that he used, in order to incite division and hatred against people like me, the whole people versus parliament thing and that is the thing that i have a problem with. another story that's got people talking this morning — women who suffer heart attacks are dying "needlessly" because they don't recognise the symptoms and receive poorer care than men, according to the british heart foundation. esther stanhope suffered a heart attack at the age of a5, and told the today programme even doc

afternoon that someone has been arrested atjess this afternoon that someone has been arrested at jess phillips'st a number of people to the police following my exchange with the prime minister yesterday. this has to stop. we need to be able to do ourjobs without fear or favour. it is very good of you to talk to us today, thank you for joining you to talk to us today, thank you forjoining us. that is it from here in westminster and hopefully, everyone is hoping the temperature will cool down a little bit. some might suggest from certain members of the frontbenchers, all of those frontbenchers. borisjohnson, himself, suggesting the temperature has to come down following those quite acrimonious exchanges we saw yesterday in the commons. it is back to you in the studio. researchers say the amount of alcohol people in scotland are buying in shops has dropped by nearly eight percent — since the country introduced a minimum pricing scheme last may. the study suggests people are drinking less at home as a result. campaigners are calling for the rest of the uk to follow suit. 0ur scotland correspondent l

in respect of his remark to paula sheriff, a won who received the most disgusting abuse, as did jess phillips hours without sleep and done three and a half hours standing up in a very rowdy house and i think he forget himself. but to pretend to answer the question of paula sheriff‘s with the question of paula sheriff‘s with the word humbug was suitable is com pletely the word humbug was suitable is completely wrong and it was a bad moment. but equally the prime minister is right to say, you know, we mustn‘t be too squeamish about this, public debate in the pub is rough, it is rougher in the house. it is whether the house of commons and the prime minister should lead the nation by example?” and the prime minister should lead the nation by example? i think the prime minister should be careful in his choice of words, equally i don‘t think the word surrender, i think military metaphors are used every week. but because of the terriblejo cox symbolism and the terrible abuse these people have had, i think it is unwise to not answer it this in a sympathetic and understanding way without mitigating th

jess phillips in the house of the night who really explicitly said we do not trust our own prime minister. but he came into office i think with a lot of people feeling that he was not a man to be trusted because of a long long legacy of issues of trust with boris johnson certainly last few days the last few weeks during the summer gave a lot of people further pause and yes there is a huge crisis of trust joe johnson his brother resigned from his cabinet position and says and stepped down as an m.p. today a gift to the labor party who now can say well look if his own brother doesn't trust him why on earth should we say yes there is a problem with trust bush johnson also hemmed in now with any other possible new polls or ways that he could force an election by his own promise to prorogue on it next week for 5 weeks all he can really do now is get himself and his party on a campaign footing that's what we're waiting to hear from him now in wakefield in the north of england a big bunch told me speech that once again he's done it 3 times this week was sent out the terms of the election vote fo

it happened literally just yesterday to jess phillips, the labour mp, that she received a death threatd only a few days before. so we have all got to be very careful in the words we use. but the strange thing is, i represent a very, very strongly leave constituency and i voted remain. i've tried to get a brexit deal through but i'm not somebody who is willing to put up with no—deal brexit and i've left my party over it, so i have taken some fairly controversial steps. i'm about to go to my constituency to do some surgeries. ever since i left my party everybody has been lovely, nobody has shouted at me, this is in real life, on the street, in the surgery. real life, on the street, in the surgery. it is not true for all mps. other mps have had people coming up shouting at them. it happens, but i'm glad to say it is still very rare. even the atmosphere around parliament is quite toxic. the entrance we take out of westminster tube, there are people with placards saying, we voted to leave, get on with it. the public is frustrated with it. the public is frustrated with what is going on. but

jess phillips, thank you so much for coming in to talk to us.both as a politician and a brother, and he has thanked him for his service. borisjohnson thanking his service. borisjohnson thanking his brotherjojohnson his service. borisjohnson thanking his brotherjo johnson for his service. borisjohnson thanking his brotherjojohnson for his service, saying he understands that is brother's decision to stand down asa is brother's decision to stand down as a minister and mp was a difficult decision. let's see whether he mentions it or not when he makes his speech, when he addresses the public. let's talk about the snp if some more because the party is facing something of a dilemma, as norman smith has been pointing out to us today. they would love a general election as they feel the conservatives in scotland are on the back foot with ruth davidson standing down as leader of the scottish conservatives. they realise a general election sooner rather than later is what borisjohnson wa nts. than later is what borisjohnson wants. the snp mp andrew hendry ha

section five public order offence, following a disturbance outside the constituency office of jess phillipsthe moment. friendly, it is pretty negative. it is that there is wide gaps between the two sides and that britain had not yet, but the right kind of proposals for replacing the irish backstop was the eu says you can replace the backstop if you can come up with something that achieves everything backstop achieves, in terms of maintaining the integrity of the single market and keeping the irish border open. so, that clearly is a pretty tall order. now, when he met michel barnier today, after that michel barnier today, after that michel barnier met stephen barclay, i spoke to stephen barclay just barnier met stephen barclay, i spoke to stephen barclayjust after his meeting with michel barnier and compared to all that other bustles made music, i had found him sounding relatively optimistic. there is still a long way to go. i think we are coming to the moment of truth in these negotiations. we will see the political will and both sides and top we are committed to securing a deal as living o

jess phillips... now today an urgent debate on the prime minister's language.division and shouting down those who disagree with him. the concern that many of us have is that there is a deliberate strategy of division and confrontation. there is a strategy. the prime minister is the last thing standing between ending the brexit enterprise entirely. he can expect no quarter, absolutely everything is going to be thrown at him, isn't it? earlier the speaker was clear, everyone needs to take care. on both sides passions were inflamed, angry words were uttered. the culture was toxic. the prime minister headed to see his own conservative mps earlier and got a warm reception. now the challenge, stopping things from getting too heated. jessica parker, bbc news. the leader of the house of commons jacob rees—mogg this afternoon repeated the government line that the best way to break the current parliamentary impasse would be to hold a general election. the attorney general has called this a turkey parliament. i think it's more of a chicken parliament because it's trying t
