and we've got the lovely tom hannood here who can take us all through it. ignificant is this, tom? well, let me take off my presenter hat. >> yes. on my deputy political editor because is editor hat, because this is a very , very interesting result. very, very interesting result. now i have to say, this was a sort of must win for the labour party. if they hadn't won this by—election last night, people would be asking huge questions of sir keir starmer of his leadership of west scottish labouris leadership of west scottish labour is anas sannar and the rest of it. but they did win by a large margin , perhaps larger a large margin, perhaps larger than was expected. so whilst it would be very, very embarrassing for the labour party if they hadn't won this last night, the scale by which they won this means that they're pretty, pretty happy and, and that's important because it basically clarifies what the polls have been saying for some time now. we now know that these polls aren't aethereal. they aren't pretend . they aren't just asking pretend. they aren't just

with me, emily carver and tom hannood.ere was some hopeful news overnight as two elderly female hostages, one of which has family in the united kingdom, has been released by hamas on humanitarian grounds. apparently after a deal was reached between the qatari and egyptian governments. yes the foreign office has said it will continue due to work tirelessly on securing the release of more hostages. >> of course, only a handful have so far been released of over 200. well, mark white joins us live from tel aviv with the very latest. and mark, do we have any indication on how this deal was achieved ? deal was achieved? >> well, negotiations is through egypt and the international red cross with hamas. now hamas have said that they released these two women on humanitarian grounds, but the israeli defence forces spokesman at the morning briefing this morning said that actually it's completely cynical . and the video of that release with those hamas terrorists handing drinks and biscuits to these two elderly women was just complete

well our deputy political editor, tom hannood is outside the inquiry. >> so, tom, at the moment, we havesupport act, the warm up still there. lee cain , we're up still there. lee cain, we're getting ready for the highlight act, the rod stewart, if you like. we're expecting a halloween horror show, aren't we? >> we certainly are. and to some extent, the highlight bits of the first part of the inquiry today of the morning, of the inquiry today, even though it's been lee cain that has been being questioned, some of the most highlight moments have been messages that dominic cummings has sent in the last ten or so minutes. we've heard the covid inquiry lawyer read out some pretty spice icy language sent from dominic cummings to individuals including lee cain. describe the cabinet in 2020 as, and i quote , useless f pigs . and i quote, useless f pigs. although the word f was read out in rather a more expletive form , in rather a more expletive form, as you might be able to imagine in the cabinet were or certain members of the cabinet were also described by mr cummings in one email as c words.

. >> you're watching the camilla tominey show with me, tom hannood.st is robert jenrick, the immigration minister and of course, member of parliament for newark . of parliament for newark. robert, thank you so much for joining us this morning. let's dive straight in with something that you have done this week. two days ago, you wrote to every chief constable in england and wales saying to refer people who have spoken out in support of the proscribed terrorist group hamas, to refer them to the home office to potentially revoke the visas of those who support this organisation . in how many people organisation. in how many people have been referred for? >> well, good morning, tom. yes, it's very important to me and the home secretary that people who spread hate or support proscribed terrorist organisations like hamas have no place in this country a visa is a special privilege . it's not an a special privilege. it's not an entitlement. and if you commit it, comments that create hate or spread anti—semitism, then you forfeit that privilege and you should h

let's bring in our deputy political editor, tom hannood . political editor, tom hannood. t the prime minister was saying earlier, it's still more a threat than a boon to . us more a threat than a boon to. us >> well, there are two different sides to this coin , as there is sides to this coin, as there is with any new advanced technology. i think the good analogy perhaps to be drawn which many individual tools have raised, is that of splitting the atom nuclear energy. now that can be used for amazing good things in nuclear power , clean, things in nuclear power, clean, green and powerful energy. but also, of course, it could be used for weaponry and annihilation and that's a similar way in which you could think about al, the amazing benefits it could bring about in terms of diagnosis , making terms of diagnosis, making diseases years and years before humans could spot them in other humans could spot them in other humans in terms of designing new two ways in which we can make make , make code and make make, make code and make websites and deliver basically anything that we c
