i'm joined now by madeleine sumption, director of the migration 0bservatory at the university of oxford for the government's policy in the british supreme court but we then saw a defiant veggies and accent he will bring an emergency legislation to make sure that it still happens. what you make of the twists and turns? —— mcvittie sunak. 0bviously, twists and turns? —— mcvittie sunak. obviously, the government can legislate to change uk law but cannot change the facts. the supreme court looked in some detail at the facts and found that rwanda, its view was that rwanda was not saved. the k legislation could require judges to behave as if it is saved. the legislation cannot make rwanda a safer place and cannot prevent it from being an violation of international law. it may come down to a choice if the government wants to a choice if the government wants to send asylum seekers to third countries, it may need to find another country or accept violations of international law. we will get more details in due course about what the government is proposing. from your perspective of someone who st

of ukraine — rightfully so. it makes us wonder when and why the university decides to act in some cases of humanitarian crisis and not in others. in a statement, the university of oxfordrael and palestine. universities play a critical role in encouraging debate and freedom of speech, but with a conflict where words have failed to describe the grimness or find a solution, managing discussions and demos on campuses are difficult. we want to recognise and ensure that the right for all of views is maintained and we create a circumstance for those to be articulated — provided its not violating the law, it's not inciting hatred. when people put our safe space at risk, we will act. and i will do so not only to protectjewish students, but i'll do so to protect palestinian students. ceasefire now! ceasefire now! for some students, the war and a humanitarian crisis thousands of miles away has brought fear and anger to university life here in the uk. elaine dunkley, bbc news. the time is 1.17. our top story this afternoon... downing street says it did not clear a newspaper article in which suella braverman claimed the police are biased in favour of pro—palestinian demonstrators.

benjamin fernando of the university of oxford led the study that revealed the largest- ever earthquake. it happened on may 4 last year. taking this data into account, he compiled a list of cities where it would be safest for people to set up their station. a lot of very interesting geology is located a little south of. equator and the terrain there may be more heterogeneous, but on the other hand, if you want easy access to the ice, you'll probably want to go closer to poles, i think it depends on the goals of the mission, i'm inclined to say that most likely the first humans you are sitting near the equator only because there is almost constant sunlight, solar energy is the best solution, in many ways i also agree with him and serhii yakimov, all the more so because recently the mars rovers found summer under: the soil and near the equator, there is more under the soil ice that can be converted into water, as well as another, i will look for it as soon as possible, it is most likely the channel of the ancient rivers, where are the american rovers now? go because there is the greatest

cross live to madeleine sumption, she is the director of the migration 0bservatory, at the university of oxfordurt ruling and the home secretary's decision to say that we can go ahead with this anyway and we are going to come up with a new treaty with rwanda to make it happen?— with a new treaty with rwanda to make it happen? obviously will have to see the details _ make it happen? obviously will have to see the details of _ make it happen? obviously will have to see the details of what _ make it happen? obviously will have to see the details of what the - to see the details of what the government is proposing. 0ne to see the details of what the government is proposing. one thing i think that was really interesting about the supreme courtjudgment was that it was quite comprehensive in crushing the idea that they thought rwanda could be a safe place for asylum seekers to be sent to in the foreseeable future. 0versee the emergency legislation... upgrading to a treaty doesn't make a huge amount of difference. emergency legislation can change the law in the uk about whatjudges are allowed to say. i

he is a professor of public international law at the university of oxford, and he joins us now from london. thanks so much for being with us. so just talk to us about the legal implications of all these. if this little what, what to be paused because you're talking, you're not talking about these writing government. and prosecuting prism is inside the state of israel. we're talking about the in, in the occupied territories where the occupying state is dealing with prisoners inside the occupied territories. and then there's, there's this kind of a legal gray area there, isn't it? yes, so it can, it can become quite complicated. so perhaps if we can, i tried to explain this. first of all, there is a question to what extent and the gather straight, but the very least to locate these right away. not accept that as being occupied at the moment. uh because they say that our um alert is basically, you know, would something to the veronica machines there and it hasn't been occupied really since 2005 and the end of this engagement. um, the 2nd thing is that if it is okay by then in principle the, t

he's the director of the centre for evidence based medicine at the university of oxford. i know, carl, that you went in and you did advise boris johnson at one stage, but then because you were sceptical about lockdown, you were rather frozen out of the process. i wonder in general what you make of the inquiry. three you wrote a piece for the spectator here where you basically what's the basically asked, what's the point it? are you still of point of it? are you still of that opinion, professor? >> well, look, i think we always sort of thought about government. it was a bit disorganised , disorganised and dysfunctional, but this is a window into how it works and it's a whole new level of distrust and dysfunctionality. so we're we're able to see the workings of government that we've never seen before. so i also think what's happening, though, is we're looking at government decision making . and happened is making. and what's happened is everybody's everybody . everybody's blaming everybody. the blaming the the advisers are blaming the ministers , civil servants ministers, th

much more scholarly, of course, and on his return to oxford, he wrote to his father about reconvening with his fellow studen. most now veterans in the junior coon room of university college in oxford in 1919, and they read the minutes from their last meeting are made some five years before. with notng to record. in the meantime, i don't ow of any little thing that has made me realizehe absolute suspensionnd waste of these years. more thoroughly. lewis reflected all the enlistments and training, the viscera and trauma of the fighting men in the trenches and the resulting physical and spiritual brokenness that came from political decisions and counr decisions made by european politicians, civil servants, servants and military leaders. the staggering waste a incomprehensible loss caused by the great war cast an immense shadow over the turn of the century. generation of britons. it's no wonder that lewis would harbor a lifelong distrust of government. as with most of us, lewis's political views were intimately connected to his biography, and so biographical details shed some light on those views. i want to focus on one particular event from lewis's personal life that
