Preventing the growth of native organisms. Scientists say it appears to thrive in our warmer waters. It shows just how fragile some of our marine ecosystems can be. Justin told us more, from anglesey in wales. All these records are important because what they tell us is the story of ever increasing temperatures, but the run of records that we have had isjust extraordinary. As you say, 11 months and a new Monthly Record for temperatures in the air, and new treatment year where every single day has been a Record Temperature for the day, and these have not been broken by a small margin, theyre not being edged past, they being smashed, so around 47 days over the course of the last year, the temperature, the previous High Temperature, the previous High Temperature was exceeded by no. 3, a third of a degree, celsius. That may not sound much, but we are talking about a global average of all the oceans are nice, so that is a huge margin, it tells us is steadily over the years Global Temperatur
To give its first formal response after they arrive in cairo. The cia director William Burns is reportedly in cairo and thats very important because us support for this deal has been crucial. Now, the Sticking Point in all of this is that hamas wants a commitment by israel that the fighting stops. Israel wont give that commitment, partly for political reasons and partly for political military reasons. It believes the remaining four Group Battalions of hamas are hiding out in buffer, probably below ground entitles and yahya sinwar, the leader of us, the military leader of us, the military leader and the architect the october seven massacre, is amongst them. Hiding out there, possibly even surrounded by hostages. So the Israeli Military want to go in and finish thejob. Now, a Ceasefire Deal would certainly postpone, if not shelved that rafah Military Operation altogether. But hamas are taking their time over responding and i think they will want some reassurance that they dont give up ho
The tees valley mayoral win for the conservatives appears to buy time for the Prime Minister with his own party. But is he Running Out Of Time with the country . Well have in depth analysis of the votes. Good evening. Two very different moods tonight in the conservative and labour camps after the local and mayoral elections. Rishi sunak says its disappointing to lose good, hardworking councillors, after whats been a painful set of results so far for his party some of the worst tory losses in england for decades. On the other side, labour arejubilant, cock a whoop at their gains across the country, including in the Blackpool South by election, overturning a conservative majority with a colossal 26 swing. Well, this the latest state of play, with the conservatives having lost a36 councillors, and labour gaining 169 so far. Well dig deep into the numbers and look at what the results could mean for the coming General Election. As ever, to guide us through it all, chris mason. Chris, it has
About their parties fortunes. Heres a little of what they had to say. We want that General Election and were confident going into the General Election. Because what this by election shows is that the country wants change. This is a very clear divide, weve had 1a years of failure and decline, weve got chaos and division from the tories. People want to turn the page on that and go forward with labour and our positive plan for the country. Obviously, its disappointing to lose good, Hard Working Conservative counsellors and im grateful to them for all their service in local government, keeping council tax low and delivering services for local people. But weve still got lots of results to come as well, which is great, and there are also things that i would point to harlow for example, where keir starmer held a rallyjust on wednesday saying that was a place he had to win to be on track to win a General Election that hasnt happened. This may care from sir ed davey of the Liberal Democrats. Th
Major test of Public Opinion before a General Election later this year. Theres little good news for Prime Minister rishi sunak. At a by election in Blackpool South, his party suffered its Third Largest swing to the Opposition Labour Party since the second world war. At a local council level, the results are no better. The conservatives have lost half of the seats announced so far. Experts say they could be on track to lose a staggering 500 councillors, one of the worst performances at the polls in four decades. Heres our Political Editor chris mason. Cheering. Northallerton in North Yorkshire this afternoon. The Prime Minister lives a few miles away, and look whos turned up to rub his nose in it. York and North Yorkshire, the wider county so often rock solid conservative, has elected a labour mayor. Weve had really good results across the country all day long, but this is a very, very special moment, david, to become the mayor here. And thank you to the team for all the fantastic work
