Our North America correspondent, nomia iqbal, told me more about the case. This aappened in october 2022 when david depape broke into the pelosis home in san francisco. He was looking for nancy pelosi, who at the time was the speaker of the house. Very powerful, high profile democrat, second in line to the presidency. But during the trial, we heard that it was Nancy Pelosis husband who he found. Ms pelosi was not there, and he had woken up to david depape who had a hammer and zip ties asking, where is nancy, where is nancy. His intention was to kidnap nancy pelosi, interrogate her and then post the video online. During the trial, david depape took to the stand in his own defence and he talked openly about how he promoted far right Conspiracy Theories, including how he believed that the election was stolen in 2020 byjoe biden, how he believed that the Us Government was being run by a cabal of paedophiles and so forth, so we got a full picture of who he was during trial. The prosecutors

The final year of Martin Luther king, jr. You can watch them all at cspan. Org. Monday night on the communicators, martin cooper, inventor of the cell phone, on spectrum issues and providing for mobile phone service providers. The spectrum of technology it includes a whole bunch of things. It includes a some new technology that is just starting to become laboratory available where we can use satellites to create a model of the world so that when somebody transmits they will know whether they will interview with somebody else. You put all these things together i hesitate to tell you how much more efficient we could be because you would laugh me out of this room. We are talking not about tens of times improvement or hundreds or thousands, but millions of times improvement. That is not as crazy as it sounds. We are a trillion times more efficient than we were in marconis time. The product of being a million times more efficient in the next 20 or 30 years is not as crazy as it sounds. Mond
Least. Foreign secretary, quizzing you . Thank you rngs foreign secretary. Do you agree that peace keepers will be needed in libya . And, if so, has the u. N. Government made any commitments . We havent made any commitments. Weve discussed on friday and saturday. I think we recognized in discussing this European Union that there would be a strong expectation that the European Union would take the lead in providing peace keepers. That is not to say a military force to subdue the warring factions. But more of the policing force to maine tan a peace that had been established. Libya is very much a step in business with roots through to the gulf of guinea, which is the source of many of these things.

So clearly theres some steps in the Peace Keeping force. All im saying is that i think there is a recognition across the European Union that

I dont think to be an expert on libya. But those who are tell me that the principle protagonists. If people are really fighting over territory and money and oil. It is easier to find solutions which divide the riches. And this is a rich country. So i would be moderately optimistic, but no more than that. Cautiously optimistic but there could be a chance of the government of national unity. I do think that the presence of isil in the country, the inevitability that there will be continued intervention that is able to deal with the problem itself. I do think those are helpful points of oppression on the sides of the civil war to think very hard about whether its in their collective best interests to try and resolve their differences and work together. Foreign secretary, can we turn to iran and the Nuc
