defence secretary grant shapps is here to answer that question. how would yvette cooper, who wants to be labour s home secretary, manage the risk at home? and in the latest of our election year interviews, the first minister of scotland claims he knows what s going to happen. it is undoubtedly the case that keir starmer doesn t need scotland to win. he s going to be the next prime minister of the uk. how does he know? morning, morning. welcome to you, and welcome to my trio at the desk simon reeve, intrepid explorer who s been travelling round the world making tv for more than 20 years. lucky for some! conservative baroness nicky morgan, who was in the cabinet, and businessman, multimillionaire and philanthropist sir tom hunter. let s start with what s making the news. the bbc website is leading on the latest utterance from the israeli prime minister saying a two state solution can t be the answer to the conflict in the middle east. the papers are a mixed bunch. the sunday
by election since 2012 and in that sense that we ought not forget about it because it would be bad psychologically for the labour party. we would be bad psychologically for the labour party.- for the labour party. we are waitin: for the labour party. we are waiting for for the labour party. we are waiting for wakefield - for the labour party. we are waiting for wakefield to - waiting for wakefield to declare and it shall come any moment and we are keeping that on bbc news and world news. mo hussein, i d like to bring you in here because inevitably, the pressure will mount for boris johnson, who was not even in the country at the moment. how much will this damage his sense of control of what is going on around him? of control of what is going on around him? the timing of this is not great- around him? the timing of this is not great. he around him? the timing of this is not great. he is around him? the timing of this is not great. he is on - around him? the timing of t
