On b.b.c. Sounds. Like the prime minister of Japan. What he said were 2 ballistic missile launches by North Korea. From the east coast of North Korea Japanese territorial waters there was confusion as to the number of. Where they were fired from Korea reporting submarine launched. But both countries were united in condemning the neighbors move as violating un resolutions prohibiting the use of ballistic missile technology. Such launch since President Trump and their failed meeting at the demilitarized. While the government will submit what it calls its final proposals for a new brakes deal today in fact some reports are that it has already sent them to European capitals and Boris Johnson is expected to tell they could save the party conference that there will be no further offers if these negotiations fail he is expected to say that the plan is a fair and reasonable compromise that all sides can build on well 1st course of what might be in the proposals we all emphasize might surface in the Daily Telegraph and justice those reports were breaking I spoke to the online political editor for The Mirror Dan Bloom. Well we've not how many details yet and what we do know is that essentially hours after his conference speech today his bake kind of address to the faithful in the hall in Manchester he is going to send finally a full legal text to the e.u. Of the sort of saying that he wants and number 10 are being very careful to try and not make this about detail which of course is where you come unstuck and to make it about this soaring rhetoric he like so much so they're going to be saying as he say it's the final offer if the e.u. Don't engage with what is sent over then that's it the full force of government would spin around and put all its efforts into preparing for a no deal bricks it's unfair its stance and he's going to use a very kind of hard line provocative language in his speech today he's expected to kind of ramp up that parliament versus the people rhetoric that he's had already and he will be talking about things like a lot of the people in this country think that they've been taken for fools and they believe that there are forces quote forces who want to stop it happening all together so he is trying to essentially distract from those details and talk about the big picture to kind of ramp up that Tory support. That language is pretty and a big conspiracy theory isn't that going to appeal in his actual address to the conference . That is what we're told yes. It's century it is him continuing what he has been doing over the last week in Parliament and kind of trying to paint a picture of Parliament versus the people that remain as 1st as the people whereas of course the reality is far far more complicated than that and he knows that he's just trying to simplify the situation to play to his advantage. There's a there's a lot to be you know fleshed out isn't there but people are already trying to work out what it means for Northern Ireland but that's got to be the running story. Yes So you have to forgive me because there are some details of this which of kind of come out only just before we've gone on air and that's the right thing but the sort of early shape of the plan which she denied him which was as was said to be out of date was that there would be customs checks customs posts if you like just back from the altar and that was you know completely tonight just by coincidence after it was completely rubbished by the Irish side and sort of seem to have been leaks out of Ireland somewhere. The reality seems to be more complicated this stuff that's been talked about is the sort of All Ireland zone for certain things which could go on potentially for for several years but the details of that it's all sort of already just coming out so you'll have to forgive me this icon of salute I mean at the top but some of the some suggestion here the British government is is going to kind of put a flag in the grove and it wouldn't necessarily be where the Irish government would like it to be well no I mean that's the very nature of this negotiation but importantly it might also not be where some of the real pricks it sort of hardliners want to be so for example one idea that was flying around in these things move very quickly for me by the time we go on air you know it could be off but it was a time limit it to the backstop and that was something that you know Boris Johnson himself I believe rejected and yet it's something that's come back around and something that's do you pain who are of course crucial to all this because there are dozens of Tories who say if the d.p.p. Basis then I will as well they sort of signal that they could compromise over that backs up with something like that so there was talk of of that sort of compromise being offered or coming about it's just a question of whether it can be sold to some quite hostile audience his own by. Sides sort of Europhile and the euro skeptic sites back home by each side in the negotiation. And vividly anti the position are the hardline euro skeptics have there been much in evidence in Manchester. It's that they have been kind of beating the drum and that sort of thing. It's being a sort of mixed you know it's been them rallying support and running the troops rather than from what I've heard talking in huge amounts about sort of the detail and arguing you know and things like that I think how they have got a lot of fear on them in platform of the. No less you counts the people who are embarrassed and government and in his cabinet says the hard line euro skeptics which perhaps you might but then you know they've been they've been talking about their own briefs so you have you know pretty bits How always hard line breaks here she gave the big speech as home secretary yesterday and she was obviously talking about law and order and that's all saying well there we had the one day wonder of course of pretty battell talk about law and order and then there somebody distinguished being sent home for being disorderly it really was the car stalled. This has been like something out of the pick of it quite honestly it's been one of the more extraordinary days forget you know forget breaks it forget all the important stuff that actually matters to the country for a moment without the sort of costs of the entire you know nation's political press being locked out of the locked into the press room depending on which side of the hallway we're on while this sort of major incident seem to unfold and then what seemed to have transpired was that it was an m.p. a Very senior m.p. Jeffrey Clifton Brown who is sort of the one of the ringleaders of backbenchers in this sort of shop steward for them he. Tried to sort of part of his way into a v.i.p. International lounge. With his partner who didn't have the right process and it sort of blew up with the staff then kerning calling security in the security thing calling police and in fact armed police and being up at the scene I mean what the source is seem to be suggesting is that it was a sort of don't you know who I am situation and yet it blew up into this huge incident and ended up with him being sent home from the comforts of asked to leave I think this is precisely why I wrote by Consider this extraordinary really embarrassing for all concerned and then in terms of actually a party that obviously wants to be reelected and in the event of an election pretty but there was a promise on the county line gangs This is a straightforward law and order of promises and hose How's that been going though at the conference Well she kind of. The whole line over the last day it was quite sort of tough on the lower and older issues you know she also announced of course that 60 percent of police ideally will be carrying Tasers and she's going to be investing millions bats and that's just a hole that you had. That just effect. 3 announcing that it would end. Serving half your sentence if you're convicted of a violent offense it serves to 2 certs instead in in jail behind bars so this is all part of a trend of what is quite an unusual party you know you have what is to some people's minds quite a left wing announcement on Monday of sort of jacking up the minimum wage and then you have these very sort of socially right wing conservative arguments on the Tuesday so that this also of trying to appeal to many different flavors of conservatism I'm a many different parts of the country sort of similar Taney Asli whether that can hold remains to be seen India will celebrate the birth of Mahatma Gandhi today and to coincide with the 450th anniversary of the man who invented the peaceful resistance Prime Minister Narendra Modi will launch a crackdown on plastics well and speak to Raul turned them doesn't seem quite in the Ganges spent a whole. Well maybe I mean he was a man of course he was known as Buck who in the of the the leader of the independence movement leaders you said there quite rightly wrote of passive resistance a man who didn't believe in waste he talked continuously led his life by example of not doing that and I'm sure that if you was alive today I think many believe you know that he would be at the forefront of the use of against the use of single use plastics with India is now looking to really clamp down on to coincide with his birthday just to remind people who may not know a lot about Gandhi he was of course somebody who trained to be a lawyer came from good in India went to South Africa where he led a campaign and this is where he became politicized against apartheid came back to India traveled around the country and then of course led this huge civil resistance against the British which meant that India gained independence without a huge amount of violence though of course there was huge there was a lot of violence following partition which he opposed as India celebrated its independence he stayed in a quiet village because he said he didn't want to celebrate the way that the country had been split on the basis of religion and already this morning the Indian prime minister there intermodal the occasions by going to a large Gart which is where the ashes of Mahatma Gandhi some of them have been kept and later in the day he'll go to the suburbs. In the bathroom where Gandhi launched the freedom struggle against the British and it's expected that he may make an announcement that India is a country that is move very much towards the end of open deaf occasional So the other political parties in India really marking the occasion as well so very special It always is in India the j.n.t. That I have to say. Many people now sort of questioning Gandhi much more than that maybe they did 10 or 15 years ago I know we all heard. We all moved for creation of our words more to dump on the field well. It's going to be interesting to see what the prime minister has staying on that there's always been a push where he wanted to announce India as an open deaf a case in a country and as he said there clearly were people just using toilets now and not going into the fields and doing it I think even if that an announcement is made and there's no doubt that India's made huge progress on this issue under the prime ministership of their intermodal with many thousands and millions of tem toilets being built across the country whether they were actually reached that point where nobody is going into the field I think some of the question that if the announcement is being made but I think one of the most interesting things this morning is if you we did an editorial in The Times of India about where Mahatma Gandhi stands today. For many Indians it's a much younger generation rod and in the editorial they make the point that if you go onto your whatsapp now you probably as likely to get a message in India questioning Mahatma Gandhi questioning some of the decisions that he took that some may say delayed Indian independence would it have been quicker in another route and that he made me isn't as relevant in spite of the hundreds of statues of him across India the roads the named after him to younger generation as he was 25 or 30 years ago maybe and they're saying maybe it's time to retell the story to a much younger generation is always interesting I think that if you look at say Bollywood hasn't really done assume on Mahatma Gandhi and really the the overall Hollywood image. Is there it's. Yes that is that is the one so is it is it time you know in the world that we live in of so many different streaming sites. To turn tell the guy on the story to a new generation in a different way they said there's a lot more questioning of its methods you know this saying was the path of nonviolence against the British one that slowed down independence would it have been quicker under Sebastian both the great Bangali leader who took over a little different line from Gundy and aligned the Indian National Congress Party eventually decided not to go down but they wouldn't blame Gandhi for partition would. There are some I think you would There are some who feel that it was his actions maybe that were responsible too that there's no doubt I think of the last 10 or 15 years and I think there's a politicize a should he remember the party that he was a member of the party that led India to independence the Congress party is no longer in power in India treading some would say maybe a different path and the prime minister. Under Modi's more nationalistic view of India Hindu nationalist you don't want that Gandhi would have followed himself so that I think there certainly are now some who would say that it was under Gandhi's policies the divisions were greater and I think there's a much more focus within the current government and so dark but the great Indian leader from good drugs rather than on my heart and Gandhi Maybe it's to do with the sen the name because of the Gandhi family though they are of course not related to him they are related to India's founding fathers never though others would point to the fact that when Gandhi was in charge of the freedom movement he offered to make Muhammad Ali Jinnah the prime minister the man who was seen as the founder of Pakistan as India's 1st Prime Minister if that would abate partition and others would just say that there were far bigger factors behind that particularly the British policy of divide and rule. Well tell us a little bit more about Circle use plastics and what Mr Modi is expected to say. Well he's been talking about this in the run up to Mahatma Gandhi's birthday and it's an incredible problem in India much of it to do with the fact that there's no proper way system in place you know if I was to take a stroll outside my flat in the early hours of the morning it is just surrounded by single use plastic one of the problems as well is there's not really been a change in attitudes towards it if you go to many markets then you talk to some of the shopkeepers they'll tell you they don't want to give people single use plastic bags but if they don't give them those banks when the buying this the fruits and vegetables they'll move elsewhere and buy by some that to give you an idea of the impact of single use plastics in India I've been speaking to the environmental campaigner but. Understand just through it and they think it will disappear it's like a rip tide of plastic all along the coast everywhere it's having a huge impact. In the city and drains are clogged with plastic and it's just become so compacted that they have to take a pick axe to break that barrier of plastic and the habit of making up your own garbage in the right place in India that doesn't work their homes are clean limbed everything which is not in their house they want to throw out. Or gosh. Any kind of practice of beach cleanup or anything like that do you ever see people trying to organize that sort of thing you do it's beginning to happen only thing I think look there's no doubt that on these issues India is behind other parts of the world I think that's understandable when you look at the level of poverty that exists in the country and the other challenges of getting people clean water electrification which the government has been tackling So certainly it's beginning to happen now but I think there's no doubt that India has been behind on this particular debate the Indian prime minister's been talking about it a lot recently he's trying to move forward on this and I think you know if we return to the original conversation if you look at someone like Mahatma Gandhi I think he would have been at the forefront of of the movement against plastics he would have been a great campaigner on the issue of climate change something that could affect India more than just about any other country on the planet so using his 150th birthday to try and tackle one of the great problems facing India at the moment seems to make a lot of sense. Well quick look in the in the papers there's a variety of leads in the Financial Times example was the the split screen photograph really of the big celebrations of the 70th birthday of China on the left hand side and then on the right hand side Swat squads beating up a protest in the streets of Hong Kong elsewhere in the in the papers the Times leads with Prince Harry's statement on the bullying of the magazine the us and the Daily Express and the Daily Mail both say take it or leave it which is the dramatic final deal to the European Union in the words of the Daily Mail we're going to take a look though at Muse week and see what's on that website as we join Newsweek's Shantelle De Silva we're looking at your answer to Sherry saying it's convicted 3 people of spying for the u.s. And a 4th person of spying for the u.k. Now one of those u.s. Individuals has actually been sentenced to death but they've not identified them they say that the verdict is subject to appeal so you know I don't know if there's any kind of sign of hope but that's kind of the situation that we're in right now. And is there much more detail about this point. Well right now we know that we have the other 3 who have been had their attitudes are veiled The 2 men accused of spying for the u.s. For are you and Mohammed Ali where I believe they've received 10 year prison sentence says Meanwhile the person convicted of spying for the u.k. Mohammed I'm in the sog they've been jailed for 10 years so you know what we do know is that they're being accused of collecting information and you clear and military facilities that Donald Trump of course has rejected those allegations is totally false so you know still. Not quite helping tensions there you know any any evidence that his administration is going to try and do something about this and try and help these people. You know I think that they would be doing all that they care now obviously it's a very difficult situation for the u.s. To navigate so it sounds like there is an appeal underway so I suppose we'll have to stay tuned. While back to the the main story which is impeachment and the secretary of state might prepare a pathway saying that he's not going to submit any of the documents that the Democrats in the House of Representatives want for the impeachment inquiry and he's not finished. You know and you know he's really coming out in full force accusing them of bullying you know it's something that President Trump aside I'm south calling this a wench a witch hunt you know but Democrats are still coming quite strongly that should have a fresh blow subpoenaing the documents from Rudy Giuliani his lawyer so you know it's getting quite intense on both sides so it's really getting I mean heated and quite quickly. And Donald Trump the president has as has been noting saying the 70th anniversary of modern China yes a difficult time of course you know right now we're seeing the government's ongoing conflict with Hong Kong protesters so for him to be tweeting out you know a big congratulations. You know on the 70th anniversary it's a bit ill timed and I think a lot of people across the country are feeling that in something that you know given the country's police are being accused of such escalating violence. And so we finish with another story from the president's Twitter feed tell us about it why not you know I'm sure you've seen this video this this card at Chicago's O'Hare Airport it was really making the rounds on social media basically a beverage cart that was just seen going out of control spinning around in circles on the tarmac before someone on staff came up with a great idea to knock it over by dropping a load of loading vehicle onto it. You know President kind of I think after a very intense weekend weekend he tried to kind of have a late hearted Tuesday by sharing that video and congratulating everyone on their good job stopping the bridge part but you know I think people were more quick to kind of draw an illusion to his presidency you know a car gone off the rails so I think he ended up being the butt of that joke unfortunately Shantel the soul of news week it's just coming up office for on digital b.b.c.

Bought this space b.b.c. Radio 5 Live on digital b.b.c. Sound smart speaker. Good morning will tease day was a pretty miserable day of the parts of England and Wales with heavy rainfall combined with spring tides that led to some flooding to say that the rain has eased away but that allowed the back door to open to a northerly after and over the last few allies his temper she said for in a way quite sharply particularly in sheltered rural parts of Scotland where we've seen lows down coast single figures So a chilly start to many morning frost of that as well 1st thing. And. We'll hear. From. Those sounds. In the days. Manchester the prime minister will make the address it's expected he'll make clear that the e.u. Withdrawal plan sent to European capitals is the British Government's final offer and it's being leaked reportedly to the Daily Telegraph The Telegraph says Plum a replacement for the unpopular backstop will accept the need for both a regulatory border between the u.k. And Northern Ireland in the Irish sea for 4 years and customs checks between Ulster the Republic of Ireland so effectively to borders for 4 years old but it's all clear but those who only are a port I asked our political correspondent Jonathan Blake who's at the conference where the prime minister is good to see the prime minister will close the Conservative Party conference with the now very similar very familiar message to get bricks it done that's the slogan hanging on the banners above the conference here here in Manchester over the last few days we can we must and we will the prime minister say that is a very simple slogan and it's a message with which the prime minister in the Conservative Party believes chimes very well with the frustration felt among the folk the public across the u.k. But the reality of achieving that is of course somewhat more difficult but tomorrow Boris Johnson will make war down the street is describing as a final offer to the e.u. Which they believe is as far as they can go within the political constraints that they have set themselves on leaving the single markets and the Customs Union of the European Union and setting the U.K.'s own rules in the future now it is not a complete package or a full take it or leave it all or nothing offer but I think what is coming through clearly from Downing Street tonight is that this is as they see it the basis of any future negotiations with the e.u. To do a new. Brix it deal and in saying that what they're trying to avoid I think is a flat refusal from Brussels or the message that has come back from the e.u. In previous attempts to kick start these negotiations all over again and that is what we don't like this proposal go away and come back with something else so upping the ante in that way I think is an attempt by Boris Johnson and those around him to get the u.k. To get the e.u. To engage in a meaningful way and use what they are presenting as the basis for a deal in terms of the detail of what's in that plan we are going to have to wait there are various reports talking about Northern Ireland staying more closely aligned to the e.u. For some years into the future than the rest of the u.k. That could be described as a time limited backstop I'm not sure that's how the prime minister will present it in his speech or in the legal text because as he said the backstop has to go but there is going to have to be some way of preventing a hard border between northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and that is one way which crucially the Democratic Unionist Party which of course prop up the conservative minority government in Westminster have said that they would be willing to consider so that the details yet to come but this is a firm legal text which certainly the u.k. Hopes will be the basis for what would have to be something of a rapid negotiation towards a new deal. But of course we're both aware and fact many are aware of this Daily Telegraph reporting with their spin their interpretation on this that this deal is intended to be unacceptable to the European Union so the prime minister can walk away at the end of 2 over with no deal and saying it wasn't Britain's fault that's the that's one of the lines that surround this morning I was that. I was not being seen at the conference as much credence being given to it. Well in this one it's certainly one theory that the prime minister is doing all he can to be seen to be making efforts towards getting a new deal and in presenting his final offer as he's going to put it to the e.u. And then having them reject it he can say that he made a valiant effort to get a new deal a new agreement on the basis of Britain's departure from the e.u. And then turning around and leaving without one. Having been able to say in good faith that he tried to get a deal but he's quite content to leave without one you know if you take the prime minister at his word he said time and time again that he does want to deal that it's prefer 'd that's by far and away his preferred option it's undoubtedly true that there are those in government who are quite content to leave without a deal and many in the party indeed a lot of the party faithful we've been speaking to here in Manchester over the last couple of days would have you know stood and shrugged their shoulders at the prospect of leaving the e.u. Without a deal they acknowledge the potential economic risks they acknowledge the disruption that would cause in the short to medium maybe even long term but they're quite happy to see it happen purely on the basis that they know Boris Johnson as their leader as the leader who is popular within the party would be. You know has staked his premiership and his political survival on taking Britain out of the at the end of October he won't ask for an extension he has said under any circumstances and his life would be made politically. Very very difficult if he had any suggestion that he was going to do that so it is a really sort of process very clearly whether it's what he wants or not is another matter and there's is there pressure I'm not saying from his cabinet but from people who are there in Manchester to ask for that extension has he been the subject of any pressure while he's been at the conference. No not really it's you know having having set out such a staunch position on that and say you know in his own words saying that he would rather die in a ditch than asked you for an extension to the brooks it process I think it's fair to say that most of the party faithful is behind him in that starts you know that said if he were to have some do something of a U.-Turn and change his mind and ask for an extension if that if that's what was needed then he might well find some support but I think that's a more important red line if you like for conservative m.p. Than it is for party members many of those who supported Mr Johnson in parliament in the early stage of the conservative leadership contest would have I think a huge difficulties with him changing his mind and asking for an extension and I don't think we'll hear any hint certainly in Boris Johnson's speech to the Conservative Party conference as prime minister here that he is willing to do that all. Just on his turn or it shows but a bit more than mental when the when he finishes talking a mantra so busy immediately get on a plane for Brussels. No not necessarily the legal texts which represents the U.K.'s final offer as they're calling it for a negotiation will be presented by at official levels so David Frost the head of the U.K.'s negotiating team at an official level rather than a ministerial level will we understand deliver that some points on Wednesday in Brussels so it won't be the prime minister going hotfooting it from Manchester directly to Brussels that said everything he has said in the last 24 hours or so suggests that he expects a flurry of activity and maybe even tying up something of agreement of an agreement within days so I would expect things to happen relatively quickly one way or another in the next few days and it may be before the end of the week that the Prime Minister's over there you know crossing the t's and dotting the i's as it were but of course this could go either way and the e.u. Could throw it out at a stroke so we'll have to see. Our political correspondent Jonathan Blake Well we may think it's a funny way of doing business but that they are after American and North Korean diplomats unknownst the restarting of the nuclear talks North Korea fired at least one missile maybe from a submarine but South Korea and Japan report the firing although they differ on the detail I think it is senior editor the diplomat and see here our junk fellow at the Federation of American scientists is also the author of the forthcoming book Kim Jong un and the bomb now almost. How are you thank you for having me on Friday thank you for coming to talk to us what can you tell us about this launch today. Well so the data on the technical parameters is very limited at the North Koreans I suspect will release photographs of what they just tested tomorrow some very much looking forward to that as an as an analyst but I will say you know you noted that this is a funny way of doing business I'd actually argue that from the North Korean side this does appear to be quite rational in the past the North Koreans have always told their American counterparts in negotiations that every minute every day every week every month that we the Americans take in dragging our feet and essentially not changing our negotiating position the North Koreans advance with their capabilities and I think doing this test on a Wednesday and then entering into diplomatic negotiations on Friday really puts a very fine point on that because this is a new missile it very much appears to be a new missile and it tells the United States that look if we if we do another summit if we have another one noise summit for instance when President Trump met Kim Jong un earlier this year they walked away with no agreement if something like that happens again then unfortunately we're just going to have to keep on moving on with our capabilities what kind of advance with this new miss represent so they already have an undersea launched submarine a submarine launched ballistic missile very much like the u.k. Has its Trident missiles which form the cornerstone of the U.K.'s nuclear deterrent the North Koreans favor land based missiles for their nuclear deterrent but they also have been developing a submarine program earlier this summer to Kim Jong un the North Korean leader surveyed a submarine that they were building at a well known port city on the country's east coast known as shrimp Oh this new missile I suspect is a 2nd generation submarine launched ballistic missile if they don't if they develop this capability it won't take them to the place where we effectively will have no good options of dealing with the North Korean problem don't get me wrong but what it will do is. If and when God forbid we do have to enter into a conflict with the North Koreans it will significantly complicate the planning of the United States South Korea and Japan will have to undertake to deal with this undersea threat they'll be carrying nuclear warheads that can hold Seoul and Tokyo at risk but I Are you saying that the North Koreans know a nuclear capability that equal sets of Britain. I would say that no the British nuclear deterrent is very much global Do you k. Submarines can go anywhere launch at any time range really any targets in the world the North Korean submarines one very important difference with the U.K.'s bankcard submarines for example is that the North Koreans do not have the luxury of naval nuclear propulsion which means that these submarines that they do have can only undertake very low in durance deployments which means they can go out for a few days and then they have to return to port to replenish their fuel replenish their supplies so it's really not ideal but in a pinch in a conflict the North Koreans are counting on the fact that the very fact of these submarines existence will generate enough risk for the United States South Korea and Japan that they will decide that it's better not to fight a war and allow North Korea to exist as it us today what will it take for you to say yes this was a submarine launched. This particular missile today or missiles also the data that I'm seeing from the South Korean authorities suggests that the missile was tested from an underwater platform so it's destined for a submarine but it's very much in development so the North Koreans to exercise safety and precaution because who knows what could happen when you're testing a new missile it might explode entirely you might lose a very precious submarine to avoid having that be the case they've decided to test this from an underwater pontoon I think and they've done that in the past so it would have precedence but yes if we if we see pictures tomorrow of Kim Jong un on a boat out at sea looking at what appears to be an underwater platform launching a ballistic missile I would say to be a pretty good evidence of the fact that this is a submarine launched missile. What about the the kind of range and the drop zone did it fall where it was expected to. It's very difficult for me to answer that without knowing exactly what the North Koreans were looking to do but it did land within Japan's exclusive economic zone it's a 200 nautical mile zone off the Japanese coast where Japan has exclusive economic rights so in theory the missiles down the down range performance of the missile could have but Japanese fishing boats and commercial shipping at risk Fortunately nothing like that happened at the missile splashdown Japan has condemned it and is working with the United States now to analyze it but yes the range of capability of this missile I would estimate at this very early point is a very rough estimate but I would say probably around 2000 kilometers which means that if this missile were to deploy from this port where it's based on a submarine and then go out into the middle of the Sea of Japan in a conflict it would be able to range pretty much the entirety of Japan and the entirety of Japan's 4 major islands perhaps not all of the East China Sea Islands going down to Okinawa and certainly it would be able to range all of South Korea it would not be able to range the continental United States. Thank you for for that. And for all that information I want to say reassurance Let's turn finally to the b.b.c. Short Story Award for 2019 there Welsh writer Joel Lloyd as the winner of the 29 team b.b.c. Short story award her piece The Invisible has been described by the judges as timeless and that the play tender story influenced all by Breck's it social division and for course she was awarded the 15000 prize during a ceremony at Broadcasting House in London on Tuesday it's all about an 18th century woman called Martha who claims to be friends with an invisible family living in an invisible match I spoke to Miss Lloyd I asked her where that money is going to go. You know it's great you can now you can fix the boiler you can buy you new shoes you can do all those things that. Are wonderful Are you an inveterate short story competition enter a you do a lot of this kind of thing I how do competitions for a while I mean this b.b.c. Competition is a very special competition and I think short story writers regard it is a very special competition. So I've been publishing in journals more and you know this year felt like this story felt like the one to enter one tell you had a pretty good year of a couple years of your in the that's the only Henry collection that's right you Tony really yes well yeah so here so but that's fantastic isn't it yeah into the or hand that you sent me is yes. Must be something about the way you write I suspect you know let's hope so let's hope so did you have those one on the stocks you know when when the kind of the b.b.c. Notice came in did you have one going anyway I guess I broke this one pretty quickly. Which is not always what I do but I wrote this one pretty quickly and. Then I saw the b.b.c. Entry dates and I thought Yes this this story is the story for the b.b.c. . When you said that were you thinking about the year were you thinking about my own when it was read I know it's you know it's not a tall I'm going to say again I keep saying this but Amy theone it was did. Reading it it was absolutely gorgeous but it's not something I thought about when I entered it just seems to me it reads itself it's just suddenly lovely lovely language but it also shares in my notes here that you got the idea when reading the Dictionary of National Biography or a Well that's right National Biography which. Unitedly keep by your bed so you know he's online or really until I know you're reading the big farewell sigh so I follow the Welsh National Biography on Twitter and there's always something interesting coming up you know some interesting lost person every day and. Martha just spokes me for some reason this woman who saw invisible wealthy people just interested me and in the in the d.n.b. Martha is a real person she's a real person although she's dealt with in a very short paragraph just as most imposter I think which is seems cruel cruel and was probably written by summarily 19 said he was. Anyway I mean to come to the the language of the story there are just there are a couple of of that many many beautiful figures in it but a couple that sort of stuck with me with the opening the scribing their mansion a grand impractical mansion of the type the wealthy favor and then you said made from dress stored in the color of spring cream. I then thought about spring cream tell us about spring cream so I bring cream would be tend to be slightly yellow. And that was the warm color of the mansion that I was mentioning you know and it was just your own because the people themselves would not be living in houses dressed and I thought spring cream is fun because spring grass has that kind of yellow and yes doesn't another one I thought was really marvelous was about the root was playing this time when the sky as if they bore porridge and the something composes these rooks and lap wings with little very dainty little buckets of baskets I imagine partition days being just like the best things that they could carry in their beat. And you just hope that they might lie and it's near you yeah yeah. You know in one way it's a story about witchcraft isn't it but witchcraft in those days wasn't really witchcraft anymore was it or at least wasn't legally witchcraft well which is it was no longer. It had witches were no longer a sort of legal entity that you could burn or drown or whatever and I guess I don't think of it so much as that of a story about witchcraft as a story about what people believe and what people see in other words would they categorize very as a witch Well they couldn't because witches were the one witches and they weren't which is an e-mail people had grown out of witches and yet there was something so yeah so that's another thing that inspired the story was the mother of a friend of mine was in hospital at the just the same time as I saw this article about Martha and she was being visited in her hospital room by invisible people. And I think she found this comforting and she spoke about it in a very matter of fact way and that's the way I thought of Mothra speaking about it in a very matter of fact way there are all these people I will admit and I think it's probably best for everybody that I didn't finish this like everybody to read it for themselves yes people is it going to be published it's they're all published in the comma followed she so all the 5 short list this list of stories are in the current policy and I have to recommend all the short list stories it was such a good shortlist you know it's really a honor to be alongside all these other writers. And I would ask you I think this is a terribly dumb question to ask you but everybody will ask this of a short story writer which is do you have plans for an. It's always something I think about have you got another few stories in your quiver I do yes I'm I'm working on stories that in a moment Yes And do you do you make a living at it or why do you doing it in between I'm doing a doctor yes exactly that's the lot of a writer isn't it is especially short story writer Yes kind of you know that's why this b.b.c. Competition is so great for short story writers because it's so encouraging to have this kind of profile given to short stories and you know Radio 4 is the biggest commissioner of short stories in the world I think the biggest single commission and so it's a wonderful thing I would you be encouraged to think if you were a young writer and you hadn't published was into this to have a go or definitely everybody should have a go everybody should follow their passion if writing is their passion they should follow it to a lord who is a lovely story the inverse of or has won this year's b.b.c.
