we've been talking a lot about the context of this and at the national security committee and the nationalmmittee and the national security council and how significant that is as a body. why is this such a big deal that a leak should come from that particular meeting? the national security council meets once a week and any nine years that it has been in existence since it was set up under david cameron's government, nothing of this importance has ever been late before. —— leaked before. the reason it is important as it is the place where the intelligence chiefs, from mi5, mi6 and gchq come together with the elected cabinet ministers and give them their frank advice. within this kind of inner sanctum. it is likely holy of holies. it is like a faraday box where nothing gets in or out. that is why it is so serious. they give secret intelligence, they pass on a secret intelligence, they pass on a secret intelligence which, in some cases could have been obtained at great risk by agents overseas, or electronic interception by gchq. secure any knowledge that it is never going to get out of there.

the governments the grand jury information allows it to go to congress, at least to the national security committeea: the presint has also been saying he does not want robert mueller to appear in front of congress. does this tussle make it more or less likely will hear from mueller? elizabeth: it depends on whether mueller is still a department of justice employee. right now they are talking may 15. certainly mueller' testimony is more imp etant now thanver, , whate we have seen barr we can only think at this point his master resenting -- is misrepresenting the mueller report. anyone who has read the can see it is not what attorney general barr said it was initially. having mueller, for the american explain all of thes incredible findings of the interactions betweenhe trump camp and t russians, not to mention all of the obstruction of justice which mueller said mrs. congress'-- this is congress' authority to do with. has andonald, jr., subpoena by senate igence. elizabeth: this is not going away. mitch mcconnell might want to think it is case closed on the mueller report and the 2016 election, but

the national security council is the nation's most significant committee for dealing with the nation's the confines of the meeting meeting room. so, leaking, which is something politicians seem to be fairly frequently, it might be one thing to do it from around the cabinet table, but for someone to do it from the national security council, that's quite a different issue. a very serious issue. and if mr williamson presses for a police enquiry and it comes out the wrong way... well, he's in a degree of trouble. we're hearing that an urgent question has been granted to tom watson, labour's tom watson, to ask the prime minister if she will make a statement on the findings of this enquiry into the national security committee leak for which gavin williamson has been sacked. we are told that urgent question is at 10:30am. we've been hearing this morning about potential plans to make the uk "carbon neutral" by 2050. but one village is hoping to hit that target much sooner. the people of ashton hayes, near chester, are hoping to become england's first carbon neutral community — and they've been

it seems that there are phone records of cabinet ministers who attend this national security committee meeting, they we re security committee meeting, they were asked to hand over their phones. there seem to be some record ofa phones. there seem to be some record of a call between a cabinet minister and the journalist in question. what that does not prove is what they talked about. mr williamson denying it was about this particular issue from this committee. as you heard, he at the time, completely denied this. yes, until we actually see at the evidence, it's a moment that back i suppose the surprising thing is the degree of sincerity which mr williamson is pushing back with this, strenuously denying he was involved. this is a real headache for the prime minister because if this ends up being a stand—off, it sounds very much as if mr williamson will not go quietly, then this will be an issue. it was suggested to me bya be an issue. it was suggested to me by a friend of mr williamson that this really was the prime minister ina very this really was the prime minister in a very weak in po
