and ed vasey arise sirand the philip hammond and ed vasey arise sir and the list also includes foursir and the list also includes four by labour mps and the influential griselda stewart, who was a prominent leader in the brexit campaign in 2016 alongside michael gove and a certain borisjohnson who is indeed about to celebrate his first anniversary as prime minister. and what an incredible year if we stop for a second to think about it. we had the beginning of his tenure in downing street and the whole fight with parliament and the supreme court in brexit, we then had a general election that he called and won handsomely, the conservative party won handsomely, and here we are having had this pandemic that is shared by the world. and what a toughjob it shared by the world. and what a tough job it is when you want to be world king when you are three and become prime minister and it is about events and how you manage those events. certainly going back to the public health england and covid—19, there will be a very big reckoning whenever it is because we've had this week the prime ministe

so we have people like philip hammond and ken clarke.ing to be an easy punch that are going in but the idea thatjojohnsonjust punch that are going in but the idea that jo johnson just because punch that are going in but the idea thatjojohnson just because he is borisjohnson thatjojohnson just because he is boris johnson positive thatjojohnson just because he is borisjohnson positive brother can't be included in that list of former mps be included in that list of former mp5 is be included in that list of former mps isa be included in that list of former mp5 is a difficult one because i thinkjo what had spent time in dentistry and was a good minister but there is no question people are going to say field office of —— spent time in downing street. thank you you both and i will see later at 11:30pm byjust a quick one before we go. is there anyone that you think you would have liked to seen on that wits, jo that isn't on at?” have fasted a coat myself actually, i'm not sure if i'm that significant enough to make it! i think every year there i

the surprise result not predicted by the polls of vote leave, but i also note that ken clark, philip hammondsey are going to be made peers, and what's interesting about that is all three of them have the tory with withdrawn from them for trying to block his efforts to get a brexit deal, so i think that's quite interesting is that to heal party and national divisions, that's very much with the telegraph thinks. sorry, the times, so the telegraph, the times. let's go to the new york times now and there is an opinion piece they're talking about tick—tock, tick—tock has been in the news quite a bit of recent and the message here is don't trust tick—tock, but don't ban it, can you really do both of those things at the same time, jason? two's yarmulke not sure whether donald trump actually cares, but you infuriates a whole generation of teenagers not to mention certain adults it may be the one thing which would end up kind of costing him a presidency with his handling of covid—19 wasn't bad enough. well, benedicte, facebook appears to be launching something similarto appears to be launching someth

fallen out with the party, and it looks like he's going to get a much desire deserved honour, and philip hammond frank phil, interesting that some of jeremy corbyn's people like tom watson aren't going to get them and i'm trying not to be too partisan here, but someone like tom watson, given some of the outrageous and unfounded allegations he made over the paedophile scandal, i think he doesn't deserve one. harriet, last word on the story on the front of the metro, flexible season tickets, good news for those who have to be commuters still may have to be in the coming months. definitely, no surprise that the metro has chosen to splash this, given it is a commuter paper. it does look like some rail companies, western railway, is considering doing free season passes, so that commuters aren't having to fork out for five a day passes in order to travel on the trains, and that will be welcome news for many workers who are now enjoying the benefits of working from home and want to do a bit of that, but a bit of going to work and for companies who are introducing policies where some of the staff are ba

powers you might also picked up in the last couple of weeks for example that our former chancellor philip hammond has been receiving scrutiny and criticism for taking roles with. foreign powers often leaving office so i think overall the level of transparency and accountability is is very high in britain and i think that's a good thing overall even if people today feel frustrated by this specific work or matthew goodwin thank you very much indeed for your thoughts thank you. lots more still to come this hour including. state like pompei appraises the u.k. standing up to china as he visits london. mollies opposition calls for a 10 day pause in protest against president ahead of the old festival. and the football team that can't stop scoring goals in italy they will behead that in sport . hello there still are all the catty picture across northern areas of europe and not discount of course there is a some rain in the makes the mickelson clear skies out across the southwest where we've also seen is in fairly strong thunderstorms and this of course is the result off the thunderstorm 1st of all in hun

what the right thing to do is and i said to andy burnham, we've stood here with chris grayling, philip hammondd they still haven't happened so i said to him, do you trust at this time, do you, someone who represents greater manchester think change is afoot and he seemed reasonably optimistic. it's groundhog day, isn't it? but i'm going to give this transport secretary the benefit of the doubt. i've been on your programme criticising transport secretaries who have not done the right thing, but when one comes along and says there is new money, a fully—electrified, modern, 30—minute journey between manchester and leeds, it has got to be a good thing. and anything that has northern transport and acceleration in the same sentence is something that i'm just going to welcome. i've always said this, if the government does the wrong thing, i will call it out really loudly, and i have done that on the railways. but when they do the right thing i think the public would expect me to say, "0k, fairdos, this is a good thing." today this is a good announcement and we are very much giving him the benefit of t
