Ti 3 is a very, very important agreement between our countries. Crucially protects the national security interests of the united kingdom and its allies and has been in full agreement with the united states, retaining the crucial base on Diego Garcia and also closes down a potential route for migrants.

And it leads people to take decisions that are lonely, isolating and incredibly risky, just like my father. And, really, what the law should do is protect people. The noes to the left, 330. Its been almost ten years since mps voted against assisted dying. Since then, countries including canada, australia and New Zealand have legalised it. High profile figures like Dame Esther rantzen have reignited the debate. She has terminal lung cancer, and the Prime Minister gave her a personal commitment that hed allow a Debate And Vote in the commons. A Labour Mp has now taken up the cause and will introduce her own bill later this month. I think the mood has changed publicly, and i think it probably has changed within parliament, so i have spoken to quite a lot of the new intake of mps, and they think the time is right to have this debate. They are nervous in some respects as am i, because its such an important issue and its such an emotive issue. And i really hope that, for my part, i can facil
In beirut right now. Again, we have had strikes here through the day, and smoke once again rising on the skyline of the lebanese capital. The prime minister of this country, the Acting Prime Minister has called again for a diplomatic solution to the conflict and he warns that up to A Million people here in lebanon could be displaced by the ongoing violence. The streets of dahieh, this is the Beating Heart of hezbollah in beirut, now looking like a ghost town. Thousands have left, many more are still trying to leave. Driving through dahieh this morning, we saw cars packed with mattresses and bags. Some people seemed to be leaving on foot. Israeli Air Strikes destroyed this building yesterday. The smell of the explosives was still hanging in the air and we could hear the sound of drones flying overhead. Israel says it will continue to target hezbollah, even after killing the groups leader, Hassan Nasrallah. Dahieh is no longer safe. There is a tense and anxious wait in lebanon following
Now looking like a ghost town. Thousands have left, many more are still trying to leave. Driving through dahieh this morning, we saw cars packed with mattresses and bags. Some people seemed to be leaving on foot. Israeli Air Strikes destroyed this building yesterday. The smell of the explosives was still hanging in the air and we could hear the sound of drones flying overhead. Israel says it will continue to target hezbollah, even after killing the groups leader, Hassan Nasrallah. Dahieh is no longer safe. There is a tense and anxious wait in lebanon following the killing of Hassan Nasrallah. The wait for a possible response from hezbollah. For 30 years, Hassan Nasrallah led A Group often described as a state within a state. Hezbollah has been weakened but it has not been defeated. There is a trail of destruction in dahieh and across the country. A Ground Invasion of Southern Lebanon feels more imminent. But here, the impact on those caught up by the violence.

Hopeful robertjenrick explained why he is the man to turn around the fortunes of the Conservative Party after losing out to labour in the general election. In the article that i wrote in the hours after the election, then i came on your show that weekend. I said that we failed to deliver on the economy, on the nhs and our borders. So there are multiple failures that we need to acknowledge as a party. Whilst obviously defending the things we got right in government, and then weve got to listen to the public and set out serious answers to those challenges.
