we have businesses coming into leeds on a regular basis now.rail, the north west link, it's the game changer. it's not unanimous across the north of england, is it? there are people in your part of the world and on the other side of the pennines to say it is now so much money, you could better spend that amount of money on other infrastructure projects across the north? the argument we are making as it has to be an integrated scheme. the money already earmarked for hs2 brings about and enables the engineering for northern powerhouse rail. if hs2 is scrapped, all that money that goes with the hs2 ticket will have to transfer onto northern powerhouse rail. what we are saying is we need an integrated system, hs2 coming up and linking into northern powerhouse rail, freeing up capacity on local lines and delivering the step change we need in terms of investment in the north. one final question, you are the labour leader of leeds city council so what would it say about boris johnson's commitment to the north of england if hs2 is paused or scrapped? c

the same is true for going from leeds to wheatfield and doncaster.r unlock capacity to support the most deprived parts of the country that would benefit from improved connectivity to their major city. and also for freight. people talk about this has been an environmentally negative project. there are benefits for regional economies. you also find that you are able to reduce carbon emissions from freight transport. at the moment, we have to rely on hgvs to transport the vast majority of our freight, largely because that isn't enough capacity on the rail network. if you leave the west coast main line with less and less intercity services, then you can have more freight. the comparative is building a new six lane motorway across the country. i think the more sustainable and an environmental choice is to build hs2, but to amend the project, taking into account the lessons that can be learned. in particular, north of birmingham, to integrate the railway better with northern powerhouse reel because that will ensure that with a structure like the midlands r

currently it takes the best part of two hours to get from leeds to birmingham and no one makes that journey, that could be down to a0 minutes, about connecting manchester airport is the international gateway to the north to the rest of the country, and it is about linking up strength in the midlands and the north currently do not have any real travel benefits or links. it is about creating a north of england that is fully connected, both to each other... itself and the other parts of the country. when is the final review coming out? we are not sure about that, that will depend on when the new government chooses to do so, but we would expect something in the next couple of months and it will be interesting to see what happens in that period. thank you very much indeed. sir keir starmer says the country needs a radical labour government after announcing his intention to run for the labour leadership. the shadow brexit secretary said the party had lost the public‘s trust as a force for good and change. this report from tony bonsignore contains flashing images. into the spotlight, the latest co

arsenal against leeds united is live on bbc one from 7:30 tonight. radio 5 live. the games keep on coming, tomorrow it's the first of the league cup semi—finals — and there's a manchester derby to look forward to as united host city. 0le gunnar solskjaer‘s manchester united side have lost huge ground to city in the last few years, but he's still full of praise for the way that pep guardiola's side have dominated. i had rather admired his team, they have raised the bar so much since pep guardiola came in, the standard they have said is something for us to aim for. it looks like rhys webb's made his final appearance for the french side toulon. the club's owner says webb has shown a "dishonest attitude" over his move back to wales. the scrum half will rejoin 0sprey‘s next season after being released early from his toulon contract forfamily reasons. johanna konta's out of the brisbane internataional tennis, as she prepares for the australian 0pen later this month. she lost in the first round in straight sets to barbora strycova — a player who konta's fai

we do work in a regularly leeds heavily regulated environment.lly. the big difference is we deliver health care in a very different way, mainly by video but also by text. what prompted the idea? my own experience was not like eve ryo ne idea? my own experience was not like everyone else, i am a patient and i have been super frustrated with how badly things are structured in health care. we have great clinicians had a high quality of ca re clinicians had a high quality of care but why should i wait days or weeks, call a landline early in the morning and travel long distance and sit ina morning and travel long distance and sit in a waiting room. we thought we should change that and create something better. we have a pretty u nfortu nate record something better. we have a pretty unfortunate record with our technology here in terms of health care, so many things have been written off, tens of millions of pounds, dollars, have been lost so do we have the infrastructure here to marry up with someone like you because you are getting quite a lot of inves

it may be that such high expectations have brought about this rupture but that and we're at leeds next only harry and meghan know. and my american colleague david left it says here is a chat more about this and this can have been an easy decision for them david well for a couple of the really trying to get away from the press they must have known that this was going to cause another media storm and maybe that's why it seems they didn't get the queen's permission on this before they went ahead and outsing the decision but you're british what do you think that this will mean to the brits. made to the brits i think is going to be mixed like we saw there. think some people are as fed up about the royals as they are about bracks it i think some will think they're even deserts is on the other hand i think some people will sympathize with the young couple who want to have some sort of normalcy in the lives and but have they really thought this through because of course they're getting criticism about the fact that 2400000 pounds was spent on the house only windsor is state people criticize hi
