taylor: i had an interesting conversation with john chambers, formerly of cisco, last week, and he saidpanies need to be coming to public markets much sooner, that they are staying private too long. how do you feel? >> i think you are not going to see a big change with that for a while. in fact, there's more and more later stage companies being built. we have 9 billion assets under management. we have early-stage funds but also growth stage funds, and the reason for that is we see companies waiting longer and longer to go public and preferring to stay private, so it makes sense for us to also adapt our business model to have a growth vehicle to be there to support those companies while they want to stay private, and when they get to a point in their business model where they are stable, than it is a great time for them to go public, but there's no point in them going public when the market is going to see it as too volatile, so good for them to have that option. investor inare an some pretty strong female-run, .emale-founded businesses what does your research tell you about female-run b

i spoke with john chambers last week. he said companies are taking too long to go public.e? >> i think that is part and parcel of the earlier question of too many dollars were lots of dollars flowing into the venture market. today is late rounds of financing led by these big pools arerivate capital yesteryear's ipo scrutiny. right now, the window is open for tech companies, so we are seeing a lot of activity in that space. taylor: i like that part of your thesis, excess capitalism which has helped some of these companies be massively unprofitable, massively free cash flow negative for quite some time. are the companies in which you invest profitable and cash flow positive? >> at the earliest stages, they are not. they are startups. it is the earliest stages of driving revenue, but we feel deep tech is such a great opportunity because when you do ,olve on of these hard problems you become a juggernaut and can drive massive amounts of revenue and capital, and we really do look at the fundamentals like that and feel we do have strong results across the portfolio. best exitgua

chamber in social media. this, i think, is what john meacham was referring to in our own time. i think civil war americans have their own echo chambers. they were locked in their own worlds, reading negative portrayals of the other side. that is what created the sense of being under threat from the other side that became so consequential. you have to get into the minds of the actors, the people who caused the civil war in order to understand how things spiraled in the direction of conflict. and i think that can be really difficult in many ways to do in a museum exhibit. but what i have learned from working with the museum staff, the professionals, is that they know how to say a lot with a little. it is kind of the opposite of some college professors, i think. [applause] -- [laughter] they can deploy just the right quotations, the right personal stories, the right details to reveal this kaleidoscope of different perspectives and opinions and ideas of people who lived through the 1850's and into the civil war. they also had to deploy the right artifacts, i think, to allow visitors

as proceedings in the commons chamber winding up and john bercow was attempting to leave the chambered out, opposition benches we re tories filed out, opposition benches were shouting "shame" and billing at the mps. there was singing going on amongst welsh and scottish mps. extraordinary, even for the house of commons. it reflects the fact that they feel it was an outrage. seven weeks to go until the 31st of october and parliament seems to be sidelined. john bercow was quite clear that he felt that this was not normal, this was not routine. he called it an executive fiat, what was going on. let us talk about the prime minister. there is mounting pressure. what are his options at the moment? he is looking pretty boxed in as parliament winds up. the government had hoped that by squeezing the parliamentary timetable they would reduce the chances of mps causing trouble for the government as we head towards brexit day. the opposite happened in the end. mps used the time they had very effectively to defeat the government six times. opposition mps and some of the former tory mps were thrill

john boko having to stop politicians. and you whether... you are in the chamber, was it boiling point?ere was this moment where a labour mp urged the prime minister to tone down his language because she and other colleagues were receiving death threats, family members of mps we re death threats, family members of mps were receiving death threats and she referenced the matter of jo were receiving death threats and she referenced the matter ofjo cox and borisjohnson replied referenced the matter ofjo cox and boris johnson replied he referenced the matter ofjo cox and borisjohnson replied he never had such humbug and jo cox's replacement also commented and the reaction that the best way to honourjo cox was to get brexit done. shouting at the attorney general whose legal advice of the prime minister has been found to be unlawful in the eyes of the supreme court and i have really never known it like that. we watched it on television and you did get a sense. you had to turn it right up to hear the prime minister's voice half the time and they were just angry and it was very interesting becau

john bercow, contemptuous of the government's decision to suspend parliament for five weeks. this is not, however, a normal prorogation, it is not typical, it is not standard. it's one of the longest... the chambereen anything like it. some opposition mps held up signs saying "silenced" and tried to block john bercow heading off to the lords in a ceremony to mark the suspension. and they shouted "shame" at tory mps trooping out. shame on you! and some of the mps who stayed in the chamber broke into song. # we'll keep the red flag flying here! with dawn, came calm. before parliament shut down, mps stopped borisjohnson calling a snap election and passed a law blocking a no—deal brexit. but the prime minister is still free to pass on advice to future voters. i'm afraid i didn't do enough work at university. my strong advice is don't waste your time at university. don't get drunk, don't do... not that you would. but use it well. use it well, i frittered too much time at university and afraid to say. this image of the bayeux tapestry... and on this visit to a school, borisjohnson insisted he was aiming to get a new brexit deal. i think we will get a deal. but if absolutely necessary, we will come out

the chamber had never seen anything like it — some opposition mps held up signs saying "silenced" and tried to block johng off to the lords in a ceremony to mark the suspension. and they shouted "shame" at tory mps tripping out. shame on you! and some of the mps who stayed in the chamber broke into song. # keeping the red flag flying here! with dawn came calm but before parliament shut down mps stopped borisjohnson calling a snap election and passed a law blocking a no—deal brexit to the fury of many tory mps. i think we saw last night why the prime minister has been right to call for a general election. we've done so for the very good reason we need to find ways to make sure the country can move forward, deliver brexit and move on, parliament has twice ducked that challenge, it's highly regrettable and the public can read into that what they want. this morning the chief strategist at number 10 dominic cummings had a dig at what he called rich remainers. going to watch people who are not rich remainers. will britain leave the eu on time? sure. pitting brexit supporters against parliament is part of numbe

we are waiting for things to get going within the chamber and john bercow may have something to say.s been lots of speculation about whether he would stand down as a speaker. even speculation about whether he will refuse to leave the speaker‘s chair today because if he sits in the chair, then parliament cannot be suspended. there was a little snippet on the sunday times this weekend saying a labour mp had suggested she might just this weekend saying a labour mp had suggested she mightjust go and sit on top ofjohn bercow so he couldn‘t get out the chair and parliament can be suspended so all sorts of rumours sweeping around here about what he might do but it could be that he is going to talk about these two emergency debates now. they revolve around dominic grieve, the former attorney chief general. he wants to bring what‘s called a humble address, a device that has been used before to make the government publish things that they have been relu cta nt to publish things that they have been reluctant to do and what dominic grieve is for the government to publish all the communications b

. >> is that how we have learned how john roberts feels, there's almost never any reporting on what it's like inside that chamberbetween the justices? >> it's so funny, even the clerks don't know. when it comes time for conferences, when the nine of them sit around the table, talk cases, nobody knows, even the justices keep their clerks in the dark about some of this. so it really is the case what we find out we find out if a clerk leaks which by the way, never happens. or joan got a scoop last week saying that john roberts in fact changed his vote in the census case. again, we don't know where she got that from. the source wouldn't go on the record. so it's literally like peering into a black bag of black cats. we don't know what's going on. all we do, we get hints and sbim mak intimations. >> if he were to get impeached, you need a super majority for that, what would the process look like? >> well, it's the standard impeachment process that we talk about in the trump impeachment. the house votes on articles of impeachment, they do the inquiry, and they decide to acquit or convict. or they decide to move the ar

from john mccain from the editorial board for me to resign over the fact that as it were her i'd written a book on america's responsibilities and here we were 500,000 people killed, torture chambers, gas chambers, gas attacks. it was a how-to manual of photography written with their regime behind it. it's still something that keeps me up at night and no responsibility to do anything but second-guessing if we had done this or that would have been different? i think the balance of what we are able to achieve whether on climate and walked back of course by the trump administration to prevent a worse iran which the administration is also trying to walk back, the lives saved across sub-saharan africa because of their engagement, you know serious stands out as a real source of heartbreak and regret and there's an awful lot alongside that i hope makes it clear to readers why even though syria called for my resignation, i never seriously considered giving up and there were a lot of places in the world where we were able to make a big difference. let's go ambassador power or you still an idealist and have you been educated? >> guest: i've been educated on how to put my ideals into practic

chamber worse than any i've known in my 22 years in the house. on both sides, passions were inflamed, angry words were uttered, the culture was toxic. johnble to disagree agreeably. two senior mps, kenneth clarke and harriet harman, had approached him about a review of westminster‘s political culture. it was not, he said, a matterfor partisan point—scoring. it is about something bigger than an individual or an individual party or an individual political or ideological viewpoint. let's treat a bit on that basis. and in the meantime, may ijust ask, and that's all i'm doing and all i can do as your representative in the chair, ask colleagues please to lower the decibel level and to try to treat each other as opponents, not as enemies. a labour mp asked an urgent question prompted by boris johnson's comments. it was left to a junior minister to reply. british democracy has always been robust and vibrant. healthy, respectful debate is vital to our democracy. freedom of speech is a fundamental british liberty, but it is not an excuse to threaten or abuse anyone whose views you do not agree with. that liberty is compromised when a culture of in
