chancellor philip hammond. great to speak to you.et me ask you how vulnerable you think the tories' lead in the polls is on allegations of underfunding the nhs. this is a sore spot for the party. the nhs is a huge and complex organization. last government took a bold decision to put a huge amount of additional funding into the nhs. 34 billion pounds a year. forrest johnson has made it clear he will continue that trend and go further in the future. the nhs needs to be properly funded, but it also needs to be constantly managed and monitored so it can cope with the challenges such a vast organization faces. you will never get to a situation where in an organization employing 1.3 million people, treating hundreds of thousands of patients every day, you cannot find a story to broadcast or write about in the newspapers. that is the nature of such a huge organization, but i am clear that we have a fantastic health service in the u.k. delivering fantastic health care to an unprecedented number of patients. anna: i think you are still a memb

and tuck when we speak to the former chancellor of the exchequer of the uk, philip hammond >>> plus,rates her 30th birthday by sounding off against the private equity industry for buying the rights to heold r music. those details later on "closing bell." donald trump failed as a businessman. he borrowed billions and left a trail of bankruptcy and broken promises. he hasn't changed. i started a tiny investment business, and over 27 years, grew it successfully to 36 billion dollars. i'm tom steyer and i approve this message. i'm running for president because unlike other candidates, i can go head to head with donald trump on the economy, and expose him fo what he is: a fraud and a failure.

. >> philip hammond, thank you very much for joining us. fascinating perspective.uch to sum up in a week's time. it's interesting, richard haass came on earlier today and said donald trump may have had his best day yesterday. but it doesn't feel that way for donald trump, who is only the third president in american history who's going to be impeached. and as peter baker said earlier this morning, while some republicans like to convince themselves that this has been great for donald trump politically, it stings personally, has made him angry. that's why he's firing up the tweet storms that he's firing up. >> so many tweets. >> but we finish this morning what was cut off abruptly last night. >> and that is just moments away. that does it for us this morning. hallie jackson picks up the coverage right now. >> on a very busy morning. thanks to the both of you. i am hallie jackson with history on hold, at least for another hour or so. we are watching the house judiciary committee where members got at best just a few hours of sleep, are expected to vote on articles of im

scrooge would have been brilliantly played by the former chancellor, philip hammond.egretful and that's about arsenal's recent performance. smile, jeremy, it won't kill you. hill, mr speaker, who is our tiny term? so hill, mr speaker, who is our tiny term ? so valiant hill, mr speaker, who is our tiny term? so valiant and small, the object of pity. it can be none other than the right honourable member for westmorland for whom we welcome back to the house and wonder if he'll have another go at his party's leadership. i have thought of continuing the love actually election theme by delivering the speech with carols being sung in the background. but we are not allowed to bring props into the chamber, too, hugh grant has suffered enough! three, it would be simply impossible to fit all the names of the new conservative intake... i know that their last cairns conservative intake... i know that theirlast cairns mp conservative intake... i know that their last cairns mp to give the address who started his speech that by saying he had been returned in four successive elections

let's talk to sianjones, a former advisor to the conservative chancellor philip hammond.ing as strongly in wales is everywhere else but i also think it was a lot to do with jeremy corbyn but i also think it was a lot to do withjeremy corbyn not getting good feedback on the doorstep. and i think also that as well the signalling by boris johnson think also that as well the signalling by borisjohnson that he was going to be potentially loosening the purse strings on public spending a little bit. that also made the conservatives electoral offer more appealing in brexit one. -- wales. labour still have their red wall and parts of wales, don't they? how does the party then try to make use of that in future and not let them set in any further? interesting because obvious to the labour party have got a lot of challenges now coming into the next set of welsh assembly elections in 2021. and i think especially they will look very closely at the strategy and how they wa nt to closely at the strategy and how they want to move forward because they have been seen as very closely aligned

talking about one nation conservatism and when you look at the people who have left, amber rudd, philip hammondnow. i am not outside the party, i have campaigned for the conservative candidate, as has nicky morgan and most of the others you mention and amongst the new intake, those who have been re—elected, there are men and women who will proudly describe themselves as one nation conservatives. i very much welcome the fact the prime minister has used again today that phrase saying he wants to lead a one nation government, he wants to bring people back together and heal the differences that had grown up in this country. that will be important because the conservative parliamentary party now is going to represent seats that are more working class, feel more left behind than the seats we have represented in most recent parliaments. those new conservative mps in those former labour bastions in the north and midlands will want to keep their seats and will want to represent the interests and views of the people who trusted them. what i heard today from the prime minister and michael gove is we want

[inaudible] >> all of this being said, i'm not indifferent to the struggles that people face. i have been volunteering at healthright 360, tutoring in g.e.d. or in some cases, simply learning to read in the past four years, and i found that to be an incredibly rewarding experience. i believe people deserve sometimes second, third, fourth chances. at the same time, we can't enable people by turning a blind eye to their criminal activity. i'm not going to pretend that i have the answer, i'm simply here as a concerned citizen. i have a strong background in analysis. i have a master's degree in business. i'm real esta i'm retired, and i'm simply hoping i can help this task force achieve its goals. thank you. >> chair ronen: thank you so much. >> good morning, and thank you for the opportunity to apply for a community on the task force. i have lived in san francisco since 1976, frequently as a resident of the tenderloin. i was born to and raised
