and liz truss also - famously said that she is not a diplomat.o be a loyal supporter of borisjohnson. she's proven herself- to really be a cheerleader when it comes to uk trade but is she a diplomat? - can she forge alliances? now, as henry said, - she has been quite hawkish on china, criticising china. but the uk also really i needs china, particularly on the issue of climate change. you know, this is a key time when the uk really is trying i to be reaching out to beijing, ahead of cop26, and i think. that is also going to be on her plate a little - bit as well. she can't simply. throw up criticism. she's going to find, - whether she wants to be a diplomat or not, she has to forge a path forward. i thank you. borisjohnson has revealed a light touch plan a and a tougher plan b to tackle covid in england this winter. and many suspect that the uk is bracing itself for another grim few months. but is his plan enough? hospitalisations are up, diagnosed cases of covid are still high. parts of the national health service already say that they are under

very similar to what liz truss was saying.k. i'm happy i have got it because it makes it easier to go out and enjoy myself now. there's been quite a few students that have taken up the opportunity to be vaccinated. we were informed on friday about the vaccinations and we have loads of students and parents getting on board, so that's great. with the risks and benefits finely balanced, reaching this point has involved much debate. the uk's vaccine advisory panel initially said it could not recommend vaccinating all 12— to 15—year—olds based on health grounds alone. but once factors like the impact on education were taken into account, the uk's chief medical officers advised they should receive one dose of the pfizerjab. it's really important to remember the uk chief medical officers supported the vaccine to this age group and it has been signed off by government. we are rolling it out in schools because it is our best chance not just to protect children, but to protect families as well, as we head into winter. from today in scot
