the government have reversed priti patel's proposals to do just that .o be talking just that. we'll also be talking to lord donald, the former chief of the general staff, about what additional the uk can additional support the uk can provide for ukraine before that. let's take a look at the weather. hello. i'm alex deakin and this is your latest weather update. cold weather on the way as we through this weekend feels pretty cold out today with the gusty but they'll be gusty winds, but they'll be easing places, seeing easing in many places, seeing a of today, but low of sunshine today, but low pressure is still nearby . these pressure is still nearby. these weather systems waiting to head out . way one low is clearing out. way one low is clearing away , but this weather front is away, but this weather front is just dangling down, of course, south scotland, northwest south of scotland, northwest england quite a few england bringing quite a few showers in showers across showers in here, showers across northern scotland , too. but northern scotland, too. but

he met the then home secretary priti patel here in this park after the shooting. scale to ensure that something like this never happens in any area. the inquest will look at the circumstances around davison's gun licence. the weapon he used had been confiscated by police due to concerns about his violent behaviour, but it was returned to him just a few weeks before the incident. the independent office for police conduct is due to publish a report on the gun licence after the inquest. many hope this hearing will provide answers. it has also recognised it will be a painful process that brings up difficult memories. jenny kumah, bbc news, exeter. the time is 13:18. our top story this lunchtime... a major incident is declared by police after a double—decker bus overturns in somerset in extremely icy conditions. there have been no fatalities. and still to come, 40 years old today. we look back to the beginnings of breakfast tv. coming up in sport on bbc news: premiership rugby is clearly unsustainable — the damning conclusion of a parliamentary report following two of

we know on at least one occasion with boris johnson, his ethics adviser found issues with priti patelt and the ethics adviser resigned at that time. this time he hasn't ignored it. you couldn't possibly, given the devastating findings and to that extent it shows that there are real consequences if you don't follow the code, that good. we don't yet know whether we have gone through the full set of issues from the johnson have gone through the full set of issues from thejohnson area. we know dominic raab is under investigation for bullying and he might want to think, perhaps i might want to take the plunge now rather than receive a report i can't see anything but being critical. except dominic raab _ anything but being critical. except dominic raab denies _ anything but being critical. except dominic raab denies any - anything but being critical. except dominic raab denies any wrongdoing despite what the reported issues are. when did it start to turn? i am old enough to remember when it seemed that ministers resigned at the drop of a hat. i seemed that ministers resigned at the drop of

there's talk that priti patel is going to be showing up . it starts at 8:00. they're going to be launching this pamphlet, nigel, which is completing brexit a democratic necessity . and i think a lot of necessity. and i think a lot of people here tonight who will be gathering in the next few minutes are literally just arriving behind me. they'll be looking those imf estimates and saying, not on your nelly . yeah, saying, not on your nelly. yeah, i mean, liam is interesting, isn't it because, you know, for all the talk for all the talk from other think tanks about how much brexit has cost us actually our gdp had been outperforming the rest of the g7. why do you think the imf are as pessimistic as bearish about the uk economy for 2023 ? well, the imf has got for 2023? well, the imf has got a long track . well, i used to a long track. well, i used to work, by the way. i know how these forecasts are construct supported the imf's got quite a long track record of underestimating eu growth before the brexit referendum , which the brexit referendum, which you'll rememb

but you know, previously priti patel was to have bullied staff. boris johnson nothing about it.see rishi sunak keeping a hold of him . and so what about the him. and so what about the timing and the importance of that? i mean, we've that perhaps the zahawi inquiry may report by the zahawi inquiry may report by the end of next week. you said something quite interesting indications that perhaps the prime might too prime minister might not be too unhappy to everything come at once get it out of the once and just get it out of the way. but i mean, it's going be a huge hit for the government if both have to walk. well, there was speculation that it would suit both suit number 10 for both to report on same he could report on the same day. he could potentially them both, have potentially fire them both, have a reshuffle and to sort a mini reshuffle and try to sort of reset and move on. that's of reset and move on. but that's been strongly denied. and been very strongly denied. and of course, they're they're both separately can't separately. they probably can't arrange that. but certain

, years ago into priti patel, these were things that took months and months and months to concludet very differently . so conclude it very differently. so laurie magnus is investigation into the conduct of the team zahawi took around one week much faster than anyone was really and it has to be said the prime minister did act quick , clean minister did act quick, clean off the back of the of this investigation . the report was investigation. the report was handed to the prime minister this morning and at 9 am. the prime minister made his decision to sack the chairman of the conservative party . it must be conservative party. it must be noted that the criticism in the report and indeed the breaches of the minister ariel code as they were laid out were not to do so much with the fact nadhim zahawi had to pay a tax penalty to hmrc . it's zahawi had to pay a tax penalty to hmrc. it's that he was obfuscating whether or not he was under investigation , that he was under investigation, that he didn't declare that he paid that penalty to. successive governments in many ways the cover up was

, also supported by priti patel, andrea leadsom and many others .som and many others. andrea leadsom and many others. and there's a lot more in the backbench who wrote to the jeremy hunt to ask for our vote what we've been for and i've come on your show before what you political pump watcher a pricing body we've pricing regulatory body we've got off but gas and got it for off but for gas and electricity and telephone communications we have got it for 37 million motorists and all we're asking for is a fair and transparent approach to the pricing of fuel. if it was fair and transparent and we have pump watching it, we'd be saying pump pnces watching it, we'd be saying pump prices 10 to 15 be even lower and guess what? don't forget in the march budget, we've got that incredible 23% rise in fuel duty expected which was not trumpeted at the last autumn statement. but we all came out with it. the daylight stuff. did you see yesterday, howard, we were talking about the fact that driving an electric car , driving an electric car, surprise, surprise is now j

and therefore she was unable to make decisions like priti patel , decisions like priti patel, which isa scheme with the possibility of transferring those who'd failed asylum process or even here illegally to be transferred out of the country. she would never that and that's why she's arguing vehemently against the modern act being amended because it's the only piece of legislation that she has left that would be deemed to be positive . her prime ministerial positive. her prime ministerial reign . she has nothing else reign. she has nothing else other than that . so the prime other than that. so the prime minister in his first party political broadcasts which curiously he didn't record on the day recorded last year, which is why it seems out of date, he said anybody, who comes here illegally will be returned again. what does he mean by coming here illegally and how likely any of words, how is likely any of his words, how is it that any of these words will come true? well, it is a little bit unfortunate. he used the word illegal in his speech, because i always to be because i always trie

do think if you look at some of the political manoeuvrings that are going on with the chris and priti patelfor members and some of the other things that are sort of the wider sort of anger and disengagement amongst the conservative membership are often being denied that fact . i often being denied that fact. i think, you know, it would have been better for all concerned actually if even a signed endorsement back to taking place. that was a remarkable interview. thank you for giving us those political insights at the end. but the powerful messages on prostate cancer and the prussian, they are the undo for me. are we done ? i've only for me. are we done? i've only just started. what about some of the stuff ? you know, we might the stuff? you know, we might need to do a part to take that because i could talk to jake barry . you for coming up. he was barry. you for coming up. he was health secretary in the last labour government. alan milburn i remember the general election in 1997 and although the opinion polls were saying that it was going to have a landslide, not one of us believed that . al

the wendy williams recommendations were helped by priti patel and do you have any understanding of a of the recommendations?- changed on some of the recommendations? ., , ., recommendations? you see, the home office claims — recommendations? you see, the home office claims must _ recommendations? you see, the home office claims must be _ recommendations? you see, the home office claims must be a _ recommendations? you see, the home office claims must be a department - 0ffice claims must be a department for all of us and it has demonstrated transparency in those recommendations are basically there to be accountable, transparent and don't want to engage in a community, the talk about righting the wrongs, they have culturally misappropriated when one of the keystones of the civil rights remnant type you had a lack of leadership electric commitment and they are not righting the wrongs, the being engaging are listening, or edited croup, no victims and families of the scandal in addition to direct the wrongs and so, the accountability, the clear track record of people being accountable to

this is boris johnson policy backed by priti patel. so that's two prime ministers ago.anted to succeed boris johnson had to utter the words the conservative members. yes, i'll keep the rwanda policy and which was chancellor and he wasn't tied to it at all. and he seemed to make no public utterances at all on rwanda uttered those words, i'll keep the rwandan policy. and that allowed him be elected that allowed him to be elected and we all do know, obviously, that tory members have very mixed feelings about which he sunak. but i mean, even though he was brexiteer and he after the rwanda words but this was. yes i'd say it was a candid attempt to deal with migrant boats , but it was also a pure boats, but it was also a pure party political play to people on the right and particularly the conservative party to the members who support the conservative prime minister and it's no surprise and it's kind of run into the dust lately. and i think the best thing that can happen now is that there's a fairly quick legal process. so we get clarity. yeah would but how i wonder how that

i just want to remind everyone that under priti patel, she brought forward single and nationality andorders build . nationality and borders build. you remember that which is now an and were told that an act and we were told that once this is passed, have once this is passed, we'll have all legislative firepower we all the legislative firepower we need illegal need to prevent illegal crossings of the channel. but of course didn't because we have course we didn't because we have the act and we have the human rights act and we have the human rights act and we have the european convention of human rights. i just don't think rights. and i just don't think the government's going to have the government's going to have the ability to get this over the line, of our line, partly because of our international treaty commitments and because the optics of and partly because the optics of depriving someone of the right to make that into visual case. the point the point here is that deportation is very difficult if you want to stop illegal crossings of the channel. and this is where kevin and i may b

but three key reforms aren't things that priti patel had confirmed would be and they're mostly aboutndent scrutiny over the way it's being handled. i mean, what was interesting about when that scandal broke there, when the windrush scandal broke, i mean, both sides of the political aisle united of is aisle united of this is absolutely outrageous you can't treat way with these treat people that way with these people are invited to , come people who are invited to, come to country, work the to the country, work for the country, suddenly country, and then suddenly treated horrendous . do treated in this horrendous. do you think, though, that those mistakes it harder to mistakes have made it harder to deal with problems of migration today ? absolutely. mean, today? yeah, absolutely. i mean, this classic example. the this is a classic example. the conservative completely conservative party completely the ball. people in the uk the ball. so people in the uk worried about high levels of worried about the high levels of migration, you know, hitting, you know, million or close to a million ov

that was a decision that was taken by boris johnson and home priti patel because they were the feelinghe numbers were crossing they were being over. now border obviously in the in the many months since then has been able to sort of walk its command and control. there are more staff are going into this operation 700 additional border force staff and the or at least the government believes it's now time for the home office effectively to take charge of these operations again. but that means perhaps that we'll see more monitoring than more boats and that sort of thing at the sharp end. i think they'll certainly be more effective , certainly be more effective, efficient identifying the boats coming across, getting to them and picking up the occupants . and picking up the occupants. but of course, for those that very exercised about these small boats coming across it stop them coming across in the first place. the problem that there's a more concerted effort on the other side of the channel which we're told the national crime agency also in conjunction agency also doing in conjunction with

we had a lot of very sort of fierce rhetoric about this stuff from priti this kind of stuff from priti patel she was patel when she was home secretary braverman but secretary suella braverman but ultimately you know, last year it was up 60% to the it says it was up 60% to the previous year of 45,000 people crossing. look like they crossing. so does look like they don't how even if don't know how to stop even if they want to, you know it is they want to, you know and it is an issue. it does have be an issue. it does have to be deau an issue. it does have to be dealt with. i haven't heard from anybody really, including laboun anybody really, including labour. exactly is labour. how exactly stuff is going people going to be dealt with. people to come into this country for a variety of reasons. there's variety of reasons. but there's economic there and while economic purpose there and while they see this this small boats thing is going to be the thing i. think let's just blame the french. i've always thought that that's the sensible that's probably the sensible thing to do. we're going to turn t

priti patel, grant shapps and now braverman .ow suella braverman. each of them tried to tackle the them are tried to tackle the crisis that's been the rwanda plan then minister rishi plan. then prime minister rishi sunak announcing legislation sunak announcing new legislation designed make it for migrants designed to make it for migrants to uk if they are to stay in the uk if they are coming from safe countries like albania. so i'm as record numbers migrants crossing the channel last year. how do we ensure that we don't get the same amount of people coming across this year. so same amount of people coming across this year . so before we across this year. so before we get stuck into debate, here's what else is coming up today. we will start with the great british debate the some shocking figures. as i said , 5000 people figures. as i said, 5000 people crossed the english channel small boats in 2022, which last year or yesterday . it's the year or yesterday. it's the largest number ever , up 60% on largest number ever, up 60% on th

do you think perhaps former home secretary priti patel was a bit short sighted that she didn't predicturts ? well, challenged in the courts? well, if you've got a problem with the activist lawyers bringing legal actions to try to frustrate the policy of the government, well , policy of the government, well, you've simply got to change the law. now, my understanding is that there's no reason why the uk parliament couldn't change the law to remove the jurist fiction of the european court that prevented the removal of boat people to rwanda. no reason why the law couldn't be changed. and certainly a successive governments in australia confronted with active lawfare against the government's policy to keep our borders safe, we simply changed the law and that's what you've got to do. where the law isn't working . i where the law isn't working. i just want to move on to another subject now. if you don't mind, mr. abbott, because i remember the last time we spoke, i think i covered a tour of australia by william and kate. it was when they brought little prince george and george along from memor

say same and let's be let's be fair . say the priti patel say same and let's be let's be fair.e ministers have said we try and control immigration and this also actually maps out a similar of attitude that is occurring in what's called the red wall seats. a recent yougov poll said that at least 40% of people in those seats do not believe that immigration be controlled. and it is a major and they don't believe that immigration actually been positive for the country. so on the whole, your poll , your country. so on the whole, your poll, your viewers are matching what's going out across the rest of the country and particularly the important seats of the conservatives. yes. even though what your take on this, you have rebecca jane on earlier she said that five year that there would be a five year ban on, coming over the ban on, anyone coming over the channel if were proven to channel even if were proven to be legitimate seekers. be legitimate asylum seekers. she she needed do she said that she needed to do in order to care for the people that we already have here . what that we alr

deliver on that or would he just kind of play around is it just around the and just is it just more priti patel style, endless hot air? yeah, i think so . hot air? yeah, i think so. liberal element has probably got the guts to actually go with it and try and do something about it. but is she going to get the support for the prime minister? one because he has one would hope so because he has he has drawn a red line in the sand. he's it one of his top five priorities. so that is at least encouraging. but of course, he's to be course, he's he's going to be having battles with all. having do battles with all. yeah. he's going to be having to do battles with the house of lords. he's going to to be lords. he's going to have to be doing battles, the opposition benches. to benches. he's going be having to do of his own do battles with some of his own members parliament the members of parliament the lawyers, charities, lawyers, the charities, immigration, charities, the immigration, the charities, the pressure . exactly. has pressure groups. exactly. he has got a mountain to climb and a part of me that

in that situation, part of my underlings, when i worked at a conservative central office, were priti patel through . we mordaunt. they went through. we all went through. it's high in politics. it's boiling and it's really exciting and it's a privilege to be there. and you've got these kind of, you know, snowflakes is true is this pretty sandwich in the independent? it gave me traumas three days to just go out . yeah. three days to just go out. yeah. you know, go out and work at pret i totally agree. oh, yeah. go and get a job at a library or a florist or that's going, oh, excuse me, florist. very skilled . oh, no, no, no. i know it's skilled, but it's not a bully. no the thing is, what they're doing is they're conflating bullying what is normal in bullying with what is normal in any important organised any really important organised where you hold people to account for their work. and if it's not good enough for people don't want to be held to account. no issue isn't and kelvin issue isn't it. and kelvin moments slippery slope moments this a slippery slope because and this exactly because

there has been, but i think that there was tough from priti patel was tough talk from priti patel ashere's tough talk from as well. there's tough talk from boris. you know, last year. so i think what that is more think what that really is more to with is that of the to do with is that some of the worst headlines , you know, worst headlines, you know, with the cost of mind back to december last year and we're heanng december last year and we're hearing about overcrowding in migration camps that were the tragedies that people dying. you know some of those worst headunes know some of those worst headlines are now sort of in the rear—view mirror. but this issue has the potential to, you know, come right back to the top of the front pages time, the front pages at any time, just simply hasn't been solved. brexit was about getting control of borders. we can't even of our borders. we can't even stop boats coming stop these wretched boats coming across today, across and france today, the tories an day at tories having an away day at chequers. meet chequers. the cabinet meet political storm co

the priti patel investigation under a adviser took many, a previous adviser took many, many months.the cbi many months. of course, the cbi investigation took half of investigation took about half of my lifetime. we have seen these sorts of investigations go on and on and on. the investigation into dominic raab was started at the start of december. that's still going on to this point. so for this investigate to be concluded than a week is concluded in less than a week is really quite unusual. concluded in less than a week is really quite unusual . what is really quite unusual. what is your of damage to your assessment of the damage to the government of this? i think the government of this? i think the government of this? i think the government already been the government has already been damaged significantly. the government has already been damage seen nificantly. the government has already been damage seen the antly. the government has already been damageseen the polls the government has already been damage seen the polls shift, haven't seen the polls shift, particularly on the bac

you just like everybody before, including priti patel will be able to crack it. well, exactly.r is stealing the centre ground from sunak, how can how can sunak's policy to be steal it back again? i mean, i there has to be some differentiation between the party on things like immigration, things like the economy and even things like the nhs. so i think we're seeing thatis nhs. so i think we're seeing that is lacking is a bit of imagination on immigration and certainly fear of being branded as toxically right wing. i think he needs to abandon some of those fears, particularly on immigration. yeah vince cable was on the earlier and again, i don't know whether you were able to catch it because i know you were outside that, but rather like and you and both remember it well. penny income tax to it well. penny on income tax to pay it well. penny on income tax to pay education. he was saying we need to do something very, very similar to that for the nhs. yes. the most refreshing thing that came out of the briefings about that roundtable summit at downing street was that it didn't big o

who should be accountable for that is a politician and there's no having a big argument now about priti patelformer home secretary and. yeah. i mean, it sounds like he implemented that bad idea very well. yeah. so there maybe that's the way we should look and we've done many more times . and we've done many more times. michelle moans sorry. the house is pretty i'm here. but is pretty much i'm here. but after five unsuccessful attempts forming a power sharing agreement, northern irish agreement, the northern irish government in stormont is set to enter functioning enter 2023 without a functioning executive . elections that were executive. elections that were held may . i'm executive. elections that were held may. i'm going to held back in may. i'm going to be talking journalist mcphail be talking to journalist mcphail t get the latest and discuss tto get the latest and discuss whether new elections will be neededin whether new elections will be needed in the new year. looking ahead tomorrow's weather, the ahead to tomorrow's weather, the uk will be wet and wintry in the north, brighter and, mi

it's rekindled thanks to rekindled now, thanks to jonathan jarvis and craig mckinlay and priti patel've been calling leadsom, they've been calling for it as well. we need just have transparency and honesty and fairness and how pump prices are arrived. that that's all we're we i don't blame the independent retailers, the small garages because them garages because most of them tied types tied into expensive types contracts and most of the actual profiteering and profit profiteering and profit profiteering takes place further . the fuel supply chain . howard . the fuel supply chain. howard cox, thank you very much indeed .thank cox, thank you very much indeed . thank you for everything that you do as well. speaking up for motorists , peter, i just wanted motorists, peter, i just wanted to know what you are doing is on the politics of this. are so many people who are car drivers, the country and yet it seems that politicians are sort of some kind of race to keep motorists in the teeth as often as possible in order to try and favour with people who go on bikes things like that. what bikes

they swept into and i have to say priti patel was personally incredibly supportive to me and my husbandor security can be a bit sluggish . security can be a bit sluggish. in fact you know the last element of my security operator constituency office still hasn't been fitted and over a year after the incident . and so i do after the incident. and so i do think we need to ensure that parliamentary security teams are fully resourced. i'm not sure they are resourced sufficient , they are resourced sufficient, really. neither do i that the contractors we use are always as swift as they could be in prioritising those where there is the greatest risk and you say you wear a stab vest now do your staff know that we have them? so when we did the over 55 spare, they felt that they didn't want to. but i did because i would have been i would have been the target largely because i'm on i was on my own. but if as i'm wandering around but if i'm doing the supermarket then or i'm standing under my parliament on the pavement with my mobile home where i've got a member of staff stood to, next then they wer

i think the home secretary it'll be welcome if she could source from a home secretary priti patel onowing that statement from suella braverman on the case. the home secretary saying it was a dark day for, the met police and intolerable that his victims had had suffer as they had in terms of the way forward. she said the impetus for change come from within police, but vetting procedures must be what are tight. announcing an internal review into police dismissals. but yvette cooper, the shadow home secretary saying there had been failures of leadership from this government on matters still no legal requirement, she said on the vetting procedures, suella braverman replied that it was disappointing labour were making cheap political signs. that was not the day for that, she said. we continue to have more reaction to . that of course with reaction to. that of course with carrie having been dismissed from the matter, the hearing earlier this morning. now former prime minister boris johnson has a book deal with the publishers. william by william collins, owned by harpercollins documenting h
