u. k. but this is very significant as an indicator of how things go. perhaps the biggest since 2019, when forest johnson swept to victory with an overwhelming majority. and in london, we've seen, well, the conservative part has been decimated in 3 key areas. 3 key for us, which are very important to the status of the conservative party. one of them is here in westminster. it's always been held by the conservatives, and it's been taken by labor not only here, but ones with also that dates back 44 years of consist served of role margaret thatcher used to harold that counselors being very well run that has fallen to labor and also barnett another barrel. so there is certainly a message here and we're already hearing from conservative some of them quite senior, that they're pointing towards party gate. and that dishonesty, it appears allegedly of boris johnson in saying he didn't really realize he was in a part is he visited part is he's had, are already out of a fine for one of them. so this is weary on the agenda. it's a national issue. beyond that, a, well, the

u. k. was leading by a large margin. people start to wonder if you crane support had perhaps fallen below what many thought it happened once they tabulated votes that came in from fans around europe who sending text messages ukraine blew away the competition. there was no doubt that they were favored by most of the people who boat in this contest and propelled them to an incredible victory. we spoke ukrainian fans here inter and throughout the day on saturday and they said this is really more than a song has contest. this shows the support we need it most. we need the world to know that, that we're more than just a country beaten down by war. we have artists, we have singers, we have a rich culture. so this speaks volumes about the support people want to give them in and isn't just a political or emotional sentiment. people tell say, let the song to it's a fusion wrap and traditional ukrainian peace of pop music, something that seems to always go down well here at your vision and what of the group themselves, what was their reaction and indeed the crowd to the when yeah, i mean, they were just swept up by their emotions, t

u. k. was leading by a large margin. people start to wonder if you crane support had perhaps fallen below what many thought a habit once they tabulated votes that came in from fans around europe who send in text messages. ukraine blew away the competition. there was no doubt that they were favored by most of the people who vote in this contest and propelled them to an incredible victory. we spoke ukrainian fan, your inter and throughout the day on saturday and they said, this is really more than a song contest. this shows us support, we need it most. we need the world to know that, that we're more than just a country beaten down by war. we have artists, we have fingers, we have a rich culture. they were just swept up by their emotions. they all have to return to ukraine because they are a military age. and they say they want to that the law. but they say this just shows how much support that they're receiving. and it really buoy them going forward, as they know they have to go back and deal with some extremely harsh condition back in their home countries. ukraine. ukraine continues to try to, to, to fight back against russi

u. k, who stepped up and issued secured guarantees to finland. and we expect other countries to follow, should russia actually step up its aggression against villain and start the road operations along the border, or perhaps a cybersecurity attacks. and a quick, what about the other potential em nato, a member's a sweet and we know isa considering applying to join. and ukraine has a asked to join, how likely are those so we expect that sweden and finland altogether announced some their, their, their final that better they're the finally announced that they will apply for nato . and we expect this to go very rapidly to finish swedish cases. actually it's, it's quite extraordinary, they exceed nato expectations, they have very highly developed militaries and they have highly developed democracies, a very, a little, little, little corruption, so forth. these are all things that ukraine or other countries are lacking right now. so while we expect that the situation with sweden and finland will go quickly, the, the exception process and the other members of nato allowing them to, to, to, to apply this is perhaps, this is at the moment it seems unlikely for other members or for other countries such as ukraine m

u. k. now, there are 5 groups of collective artists. what that proposes is that art is a social medium which can bring social change and renewal that perhaps is one way out of this capitalist takeover. well, that's our big topic. yes, it's not only relate to art of overlayed tool, everything. today's corporate culture and those whole political situation, you can, i'm features and they all being pushed by the class of capitalism or state capital iraq, the new capital direct. they all know the world has new structures, you know, and they're so powerful. they basically designed the r, lifelong or behaving, or knowledge i to cation and of course, in general art art, as being used us decorative idea to may cause satisfaction over the brochure, our society and is always being serve us for the rich and powerful soul. i think is all depends on individual art has, is not about wanting to sell. lowball. does the message correct about the, you know, you're always con crazy, old message. i think it's time for question in answers. there's a lot to say way, way about what's just been raised, but let's, let's this wonderful young person. hi everyone. my

u. k. government guidance to do with the war in ukraine, and they say that they're in discussions with other grandson tournaments, but seeing what can be done or perhaps on an international level. the statement that the court put out on friday are called the move disproportionate in the context of the exceptional and extreme circumstances, saying that it was damaging to all players who compete on the top. well, the atp for it's part has pushed back and said that, that's basically nonsense saying that their move is protecting the system and the players, they say it's with great reluctance that they've moved removed ranking points from wimbleton saying that unilateral decisions of the nature such as a women's ban, if on a dressed set, a damaging precedent for the rest of the tour. anything. how is this going to affect the place? well, i think there are various opinions amongst the professional players. we know that to him vest, sir, the ban rules out some really high profile play, such as russia's de neil medford, if the world number 2 in the men's rankings. and also last is semi finalist here a bellow russian or arena sub olenka. so he's a big names, b
