Find out what Mark Kermode thinks of f9 and the rest of the weeks top releases. Good afternoon, and welcome to bbc news. The Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, has apologised and admitted he breached social distancing guidlines after the Sun Newspaper published a photograph of him in an embrace with one his closest aides. The photo is said to have been taken in may, in Mr Hancocks whitehall office. The Prime Ministers official spokesman has said the Prime Minister has accepted the Health Secretarys apology and considers the matter closed. In a statement, the Health Secretary said. Back injanuary, Matt Hancock appeared on the andrew marr show, where he was asked about the police fining two women who went for a walk five miles from their homes. This was his response. Every time you try to flex the rules, that could be fatal. People just need to notjust follow the letter of the rules, but follow the spirit, as well, and play their part. I know its tough. In may last year, the Epidemiologist Professor Neil ferguson resigned from the governments scientific advisory group, sage, after it emerged he had broken lockdown rules when a woman he was reportedly in a relationship with visited his home. Speaking to Sky News at the time, Mr Hancock called prof fergusons actions extraordinary. Well, its just extraordinary. Well, itsjust extraordinary. And, you know. I dont understand it. You sound speechless. I you know. I dont understand it. You sound speechless. You sound speechless. I am that doesnt you sound speechless. I am that doesnt often you sound speechless. I am that doesnt often happen you sound speechless. I am that doesnt often happen to you sound speechless. I am that doesnt often happen to me. You sound speechless.

The right decision, to resign. You. Wouldve thought to keep them. Is wouldve thought to keep them. Is Ust Wouldve thought to keep them. Just not wouldve thought to keep them. Is just not possible in these circumstances. Just not possible in these circumstances. , �. , circumstances. You wouldnt have thou~ht circumstances. You wouldnt have thou. Ht to circumstances. You wouldnt have thought to keep circumstances. You wouldnt have thought to keep him. Lets get more from our political correspondent Jonathan Blake. Is at the end of the matter . Certainly not as far as the political opponents concerned. They are increasing pressure on the Health Secretary to resign or for the Prime Minister to sack him. That statement you mentioned from Mr Hancock earlier today apologising for breaking social distancing guidelines and appealing for privacy over what he described as this personal matter and downing Streets Word that the Prime Minister accepted that apology and considered the matter closed have done nothing to stem the pressure on Mr Hancock to stem the pressure on Mr Hancock to go. The Labour Party were very quick to call for the Health Secretary to resign after the story emerged this morning, and the chairman of The Party, and elyse dodds, has accused the Health Secretary the Prime Minister of being spineless for not getting rid of him. Of course we have been through a period where grandparents havent been able to hug their grandchildren. Ive just come off a call right now with some of my local nurses, who have been following the rules to the letter, who are really struggling, currently, to deal with the impact of covid still. I honestly think that now is the time when the Prime Minister needs to get a grip on the situation. He simply hasnt done so until now. He needs to act. The partys deputy leader, angela brainard, has written to the governments independent adviser on standards, lord kite, also the cabinet secretary simon case, calling for an investigation and Matt Hancock present behaviour and accusing him of breaching the ministerial code. So we will see if that yields any response from whitehall. The Lib Dems are accusing Matt Hancock of hypocrisy over his actions. Their spokesperson for health is the mp for twickenham. His position is untenable. Itsjust absolutely hypocritical when he is the man absolutely hypocritical when he is the man making the rules at the top of the the man making the rules at the top of the government to all of us have had to of the government to all of us have had to follow, and the sacrifices the british people have made for many, the british people have made for many, many months. You know, this happened many, many months. You know, this happened at many, many months. You know, this happened at a time where people who were in happened at a time where people who were in couples that couldnt live together, were in couples that couldnt live together, couldnt spend the night with each together, couldnt spend the night with each other, when grandparents couldnt with each other, when grandparents couldnt hug their grandchildren. And yet. Couldnt hug their grandchildren. And yet, here we have a clear breach of the and yet, here we have a clear breach of the guidelines, potentially a breach of the guidelines, potentially a breach in of the guidelines, potentially a breach in the law. I dont think his Position Breach in the law. I dont think his position is breach in the law. I dont think his position is tenable any longer. Now it is being stressed by sources that no laws were broken, and that Mr Hancock and his aide were in Work Context when are pictured together in those Cctv Images which were published by the Sun Newspaper. And thatis published by the Sun Newspaper. And that is key to why Mr Hancock is not necessarily having to defend breaking the law in what he did with her in that office and what they did together. But rather, why he has apologised for breaching the guidelines. Because while social distancing was encouraged by the government at that time, in workplaces it was not a legal requirement. Nevertheless, as you heard the liberal democrats and others making the case for there, it is perhaps breaching the spirit of the guidance and that Mr Hancock is potentially guilty of, and many peoples eyes, having spoken so forcefully in the past about the importance of people following the rules themselves in order to manage coronavirus. And it will depend on that and the public� s response, and the response from conservative mps and others in government as to whether Downing Street is able to Hold Firm and keep them in hisjob or not. Indie Hold Firm and keep them in his ob or not. ~ ,. ,. , or not. We will see how it goes. Jonathan blake or not. We will see how it goes. Jonathan blake in or not. We will see how it goes. Jonathan blake in westminster. | or not. We will see how it goes. Jonathan blake in westminster. Well Jonathan Blake in westminster. Well be talking to tim montgomery, founder of the Conservative Home website, among other things, hell Bejoining Mejust after website, among other things, hell be joining me just after half past. Holiday companies have expressed frustration at the governments easing of Travel Restrictions saying the changes dont go far enough. 16 destinations have been added to the Green List, including the spanish Balearic Islands of ibiza, Menorca And Majorca as well as malta and madeira. These places have been added to the list, as well, and Holiday Firms are talking about a considerable uptick in Bookings Today as a result. Theo leggett has this report. They are quiet right now, but the beaches and bars of ibiza are getting ready for a wave of new arrivals from britain. The balearic island is one of a number of new destinations travellers from the uk will be able to visit without having to quarantine on their return, although they will have to take Covid Tests before and after their journey. Duncan lyon says he cant wait to go on holiday with his wife without having to go into quarantine afterwards. I have worked all the way through the pandemic, i have had a few holidays cancelled. But certainly myself and my wife are looking so much forward to having a bit of sun, sea and relaxation, and a few cheeky drinks sitting on a nice terrace somewhere, enjoying the sun. Relaxation, that is what i want. But theres a catch a warning that nearly all of the new Green List countries may not stay on that list for very long. There are some concerns in these particular locations. And therefore, be aware that when you book, things may have to change, they may have to change at short notice. We have said they are on the Green List, but we have said they are on the green watchlist, so people can see exactly what we are seeing in terms of concern. Travel companies have given the changes a lukewarm welcome. There are concerns the policy is confusing, and the lack of certainty will deter people from booking holidays. Why do we not have the Canary Islands . Where is cyprus and where are the greek islands . All of whom have equally low Covid Case rates as malta and the balearics. The other question is why is the Traffic Light System being further compromised . It used to be green, amber and red, now we have green and green watch, whatever the hell that is all about. So it is continuing to sow more confusion in peoples minds. The westminster government says it is preparing to relax Quarantine Rules more widely, by allowing fully vaccinated travellers to come from medium Risk Amber countries without needing to isolate. But it hasnt said when this will happen. And in some parts of the uk, School Holidays begin next week. It is just really confusing, as to why we are flip flopping around with all the different promises we have been given and still no clarity or detail, and no financial support for the industry that is just in absolute dire distress, knowing that we are literally on the brink of a summer that possibly may be worse than last year. And not all countries want to open their borders to travellers from the uk. Germany is lobbying for tighter restrictions across the eu, to control the spread of the so called Delta Variant of covid. But, for the moment at least, tourist hotspots like Spain And Greece seem eager to have british Holiday Makers back as soon as possible. Theo leggett, bbc news. Our correspondent in madrid, guy hedgecoe, says businesses in Spanish Tourist destinations are hoping restrictions on travel from the uk will be eased soon. I am in the plaza de Santa Ana in central madrid, which is normally a Big Magnet for tourists. You can see there are people wandering around, but certainly many fewer than you would normally expect. People certainly here have been very encouraged by the inclusion of the balearics on that Green List, that is seen as good news by the Balearic Islands and the Spanish Economy as a whole. British tourists are the single biggest market, biggest foreign market, for the Spanish Tourism industry. Spain is absolutely desperate to get british tourists visiting again and so this is seen as a big boost, potentially a big boost, for the Spanish Economy overall. I think speaking to businesses here, they are optimistic about this, but obviously this does not affect madrid itself, it affects the Balearic Islands. The Spanish Government has been lobbying the Uk Government a lot over the last few weeks, asking it to include those areas of spain on the Green List which have particularly low Infection Rates which need tourists the balearics is obviously one of those, but the Canary Islands is another, so is the Valencia Region on the mediterranean coast. So people are pleased about that, but they would like to see more areas included on the Green List. Cases of Covid I9 have risen by 46 in a week across the uk. The latest figures from public Health England Show 117 deaths of people with the Delta Variant in england, within 28 days of a positive test. The drive to get more people vaccinated is being stepped up this weekend as our Health Correspondent Katharine Da Costa reports. No need to book, just walk in and grab a jab. That is the message from the nhs this weekend, as this pop up Vaccination Centre in Halifaxjoins Hundreds of venues across the country. In london, arsenals Emirates Stadium is open to all adults, with those under a0 offered Pfizer And Moderna jabs. Im only 22 years old, so this is the earliest i could get it. When i saw it, i took the opportunity. In the beginning, there were rumours, is it safe, what is in the vaccine . But i think the more people get it, the confidence grows. Also, being arsenal supporters, you get to see the stadium what we have learned is that the easier we make it for people, the closer we have these Vaccine Centres to where they live, the more likely they are to come and get a jab. The latest figures from public Health England Show that cases of the Delta Variant were up 46 in the week to the 21st ofjune. A further 514 people were admitted to hospital with the virus. Of those, 60 hadnt had a vaccine, while 20 were fully vaccinated. Infection rates are still rising in england and scotland, according to the latest survey from the office for national statistics. Rates are highest in the North West and North East of england, and among i6 24 year olds. Surge testing has been ramped up in the worst affected areas, but a report by the Spending Watchdog has found that there are still weaknesses in the Test And Trace system. There is a huge amount that has been spent on these tests. They have been sent out and we dont know if they have been used. There is use of expensive consultants, and also underused Contact Tracers and laboratories. There are real issues in terms of if we are getting the most for our money. The Department Of Health says vaccines, together with Test And Trace, are central to the Road Map out of the pandemic. But health officials say it is still too soon to let your guard down. Katharine da costa, bbc news. A further 18 coronavirus deaths have been recorded in the uk. The deaths occured within 28 days of a positive test for the virus. There were also 15,810 new cases reported. Almost 44 Million people have now received their first vaccination, and more than 32 Million people have had both their first and second jabs. The headlines on bbc news. Matt hancock says sorry for breaching distancing guidelines, after he was caught on camera in an embrace with a close aide. Borisjohnsons spokesman has said the Prime Minister has accepted Matt Hancocks apology, and that the matter was now closed. Labour has called for action to be taken. Theres a surge in bookings to destinations including the Baleariac Islands and malta, after they were moved onto the travel Green List. Four people have died after a block of flats collapsed in miami. A british woman is among over 150 people still missing. Well talk more about covid, but specifically about that Pilot Scheme that you might remember which has been exploring the impact of large events on covid 19 transmission. It has found no substantial outbreaks. The Events Research Programme was commissioned by the prime Minister Backin commissioned by the Prime Minister back in february and has seen events carried out in liverpool, sheffield and london. Lets find out more about whats been revealed. Catherine acosta has been looking at the findings. Theres been quite a lot of Mass Scale events and it was all to test things. Remind us of what this programme was . The government what this programme was . The government set what this programme was . Tie government set up what this programme was . Tte government set up a what this programme was . Tte government set up a research what this programme was . Ttl government set up a Research Project to see whether large events could be held safely. The first nine Test Events held across the country included the fa cup, the world snooker championship, and together these events attracted 58 Thousand participants, but only 28 cases of covid were identified 58,000. The report said there were no substantial outbreaks. Public health teams worked really closely with the event organisers, putting in extra mitigating measures, for example, staggering arrival times, enhanced ventilation. In some events they did Scrap Facemasks and social distancing to see what happened there. But there are some caveats to point out. Firstly, these events were held between mid april in mid may when the Infection Levels were lower than they are now, and the report did say that more testing of other measures might be needed with their high levels of the virus in circulation and, if there any new variants that emerge. The report also says that there was a low take up of pcr tests. Pcr tests are the Lab Based Tests that are seen as more accurate than the lab tests, and its possible that some infections may have been missed. The level of risk varies by venue, its generally thought the outdoor events are generally safer than indoors, and that the high risk areas included those where there were large numbers in the crowd close together, particularly in pinch point, so going to the toilets where ventilation might not be so good. What are the findings mean for big events going forward . Because we keep talking about desperate to get a normal life, and weve reflected a lot on the euros, big matches coming up lot on the euros, big matches coming up at wembley what does that mean for all these big Scale Events . Researchers were asked about wembley with the Euro Final coming up, plans to hold 60,000 Football Fans together next month. They said the events are not risk free, but the mitigations could be put in place and this close working between public Health And Event organisers. But this research has helped to feed into those decisions to increase capacity. Further events are due over the summer, so things like wembley. Over the summer, so things like wembley over the summer, so things like wemble ~ ,. , wembley. Wimbledon next week . Wimbledon. Wembley. Wimbledon next week . Wimbledon, thats wembley. Wimbledon next week . Wimbledon, Thats Right wembley. Wimbledon next week . Wimbledon, Thats Right of wembley. Wimbledon next week . Wimbledon, Thats Right of the wimbledon, Thats Right of the Goodwood Festival of speed. These will all help inform decisions about mass testing. The findings will beef seen as reassuring by those who want to bring back music, Theatre And Sport be seen. But its important that we have to remember weve still got this Delta Variant, so hands, face, space, Fresh Air also really important. Face, space, Fresh Air also really important face, space, Fresh Air also really important. Face, space, Fresh Air also really imortant. ,. , , Rescue Efforts are continuing as 159 people remain unaccounted for, after the collapse of a 12 Storey Building in miami. The Apartment Block came down without warning early yesterday morning, destroying dozens of homes in a matter of seconds. Four people are now known to have died, and the cause of the collapse remains unclear. Among those missing are a british woman, and her husband and daughter. 0ur Correspondent Will Grant reports now from miami just to warn you, you may find some of these images distressing. The entire sea facing wing of champlain towers collapsed in the early hours of the morning. 12 storeys of apartments concertinaed in seconds. The shocking moment caught on cctv. Within minutes, scores of firefighters and Search And Rescue teams began scouring the tonnes of debris for survivors. Miraculously, a young boy was pulled from the rubble among ten to be treated at the scene and then transferred to hospitalfor his injuries. As the hours pass, Emergency Rescue teams are working through the night at the collapsed Apartment Block, relentlessly trying to locate anyone still trapped. They have even burrowed into the rubble from beneath, via the basement. As the search goes on, this sobering assessment. I will tell you after spending the bulk of the day here, that this is a tragedy without precedent in the united states of america. The devastation that i witnessed today is the likes of which i have never seen. For the desperate Family Members though, the wait for information is nothing short of unbearable. I found out that my nephew was here, with wife and three small children two, six and nine. Only god is one who saved them. So you never lose hope, and im not losing my hope. I think they are gone. I dont want to be pessimistic, but we have been calling them like nonstop, no reply, nobody knows anything. We dont have information right now. The site of this building so destroyed is a terrible reminder to the people of this community of what they have lost. And its a sign to the authorities they must begin to establish what happened here, no matter where it leads. This tragic incident has affected everyone in this small community, which never saw the disaster coming. Before long, they will need a full explanation of exactly why it did. Will grant, bbc news, miami. Well, Rescue Workers are still hoping to find people alive. Officials have been updating journalists. Unfortunately, this has been a tragic night. We do have 120 people now accounted for, which is very, very good news, but our unaccounted for number has gone up to 159. In addition, we can tragically report the Death Count is now four. I want to be very clear about the numbers, they are very fluid, we will continue to update you as we have them, but we have confirmed four deaths. The Search And Rescue team worked throughout the night and it was a very active scene from above and below. We also brought heavy machinery onto the site to assist with the operation. The local mayor of miami giving journalists an update on the grim situation in the city. A us judge will sentence former police office Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd in minneapolis today. Floyd was killed in may last year when chauvin . Knelt on his neck for more than nine minutes. Video recorded by a bystander showed their children with his knee pressed on George Floyds neck for more than nine minutes as he lay handcuffed on the ground. Nada tawfik has more. I find the defendant guilty. This is the moment Derek Chauvin became the first white Police Officer in the state of minnesota to be convicted of killing a black man. It was a positive step, many felt, towards justice. His upcoming sentencing has the potential to set a precedent for real accountability. The judge might think this is just such a serious case of such notoriety that he is just going to give a greater time, i think he will go above 25 years, 25 30. The judge has said he will consider how much chauvin abused his position of trust and authority, and how he treated George Floyd with particular cruelty. George floyd i cannot. Breathe, i cannot breathe. This became a place for the community to gather and try to heal. It is clear speaking with residents though that there is still a deep distrust of the police and its a problem that wont be solved by one court holding one man accountable. Nobody that got killed by the police is coming back so its like, we all know how they feel. N we we dont know how to feel. If that had been a white guy, he wouldnt have did that. He did it because he was black and he thought he could get away with it. The former officer has never expressed remorse and could choose to speak for the first time at his sentencing. His lawyers are pushing for probation instead ofjail time. Once more, the citizens of minneapolis will be waiting anxiously for a decision out of this courthouse. It will be a defining moment for america. Nada tawfik, bbc news, minneapolis. We can speak now to ck hoffler, president of the national bar association, and chair of the rainbow push coalition. Thanks so much for your time and for joining us on bbc news. How significant is this moment for you, the sentencing . This significant is this moment for you, the sentencing . The sentencing . This is incredibly significant the sentencing . This is incredibly significant. This the sentencing . This is incredibly significant. This is the sentencing . This is incredibly significant. This is a the sentencing . This is incredibly significant. This is a significant i significant. This is a significant moment in time, i would say, for this entire country, but especially for the african american community, or black and brown people who have suffered so much and seen so much Police Brutality over decades. George floyd was one example of thousands of african american or black and brown men and women who have died through excessive use of force from Law Enforcement. So this is incredibly important. This would be justice, is incredibly important. This would bejustice, one Measure Ofjustice in one case, but it would be the beginning Hopefully Ofjustice for Police Brutality in the united states. Because we desperately need to have a sense that progress is being made and that there will be accountability for Law Enforcement to engage in who engage in excessive use of Force And Murder people. It should not be permissible, but it has been permissible, but it has been permissible in this country for a long time, unfortunately. So this is an incredibly important sentencing. What are the parameters here . What will thejudge have been taking into account . What will be considered at this moment from a legal perspective . Because of course, the judge will be acutely aware as well of everything youve just described. Absolutely. Because thisjudge of everything youve just described. Absolutely. Because this Judge Set as the trialjudge in this case, remember, hell have all the evidence in the case fresh, and he rendered decisions right there on the spot during the trial. But there have been posttrial motions, now theres a sentencing remind all, a document which is prepared where there is an Assessment And Analysis of what the recommended sentence should be for Derek Chauvin. And thats in collaboration with Parole Officers and basically Law Enforcement types. 0r officers and basically Law Enforcement types. Or the state, if you will. But the prosecution in this case is asking for 30 years. The Defence Attorney is asking for probation. So thejudge the Defence Attorney is asking for probation. So the judge will have to make a determination as to whether probation is reasonable. I think that theres not a chance that Derek Chauvin should or would get probation. Im not thejudge, but theres no reason for him to be given probation because thejudge has said that he will consider these aggravating factors such as the fact that George Floyd was a vulnerable victim and subject to cruelty by Derek Chauvin. The fact that their child and abused his position of authority and committed these heinous acts in front of children. The fact that he failed to render medical attention to George Floyd when it was very clear that Mr Floyd needed radical attention. George floyd was yelling that he couldnt breathe then he went unconscious and their children still kept his knee to his neck. All and Derek Chauvin still kept. The judge will consider these when looking at the sentencing guidelines. Every state has sentencing guidelines, and in a case like this, they are guidelines for the court to guide them and what type of sentence should be imposed. This judge is typically pretty conservative, and a case like this, he might impose 15 years to stop the guidelines would say 12. 5 years roughly. But i believe thisjudge, in light of aggravating factors and as he sat as the judge in the trial, will probably give between 15 25 years to derek shop in. Maybe not the 30 years the prosecution is asking Derek Chauvin. So thats what we can expect, in my own impression. But im not thejudge. 0f impression. But im not thejudge. Of course. Before you go, im interested Derek Chauvin has the right to address the court before the sentences handed down. Is that something that the people of minneapolis want to hear . Would you want to hear from minneapolis want to hear . Would you want to hearfrom him . Weill. Minneapolis want to hear . Would you want to hear from him . Want to hear from him . Well, i think Eve Bod want to hear from him . Well, i think everybody wanted want to hear from him . Well, i think everybody wanted to want to hear from him . Well, i think everybody wanted to hear want to hear from him . Well, i think everybody wanted to hear from want to hear from him . Well, i think everybody wanted to hear from him l want to hear from him . Well, i think. Everybody wanted to hear from him at the trial. But it was ill advised for him to testify at the trial. But for him to testify at the trial. But for me, it turns on the family. When there is such a graphic video of nine minutes and 29 seconds of a need to your Loved Ones neck, theres very little that you can say they could make up for that. A knee. I spent time with Mr Floyds family, i was at the White House with them a couple weeks ago, but i think people would appreciate that you have some sense of regret that you have some sense of regret that you murdered someone and that you committed this heinous act. If he is not prepared to deliver a Statement Thatis not prepared to deliver a statement that is authentic and is real, then he should not say a word. Because certainly the Judge And Everyone in the courtroom, and the world will be looking to see if they really believe that he feels and senses a sense of remorse. So if not, he shouldnt say anything, he should just take a sentence and let the judge be the one to impose that sentence. Because otherwise, if he is going to do with any type of misgivings, that will be conveyed, the family will see it, and that would be awful because his family has suffered so much, that community has suffered so much, that community has suffered so much, that community has suffered so much, this country has suffered so much, this country has suffered, and indeed, the World Weve seen this video over and over, and over again. And every time that the family sees it, it takes away a part of them, of their heart, every single time. So, i think its difficult. , ~ every single time. So, i think its difficult. , ,. Every single time. So, i think its difficult. ,. , difficult. Thank you so much for our difficult. Thank you so much for your time difficult. Thank you so much for your time tonight. And well be live in minneapolis later for full coverage of the sentencing of former Police Officer Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd starting at around 7. 30pm this evening.

You might remember this, mr pitchfork, who was jailed backin this, mr pitchfork, who was jailed back in 1988 for murdering to leicestershire teenagers two teenagers, there is an outcry when it emerged that he could be considered for parole and potentially be released. And there had been applications made to the justice secretary, we are just hearing that Robert Buckland is indeed to seek a review of that ruling that he can be safely released. A few details coming in from our Home Affairs Correspondent Robert Buckland will write to the Parole Board on monday arguing that the decision to release him is irrational. A Ministry Ofjustice Spokesperson our heartfelt sympathies remained with the families of Linda Mann and don ashworth. They will ask the Parole Board to reconsider its decision.

With me is the former downing Street Adviser and founder of the political website, conservativehome tim montgomerie. Welcome. The Prime Minister says this is an end of the matter. Is it . I dont think so. I dont think it should be the end of the matter. I would be very struck, i live in salisbury, this week a lot of local people, just talking about the sort of, the way the uefa officials have been treated differently ahead of the euros final, the british people will put it with a lot of things, a lot of restrictions that have been necessary during the Covid Pandemic but the idea that there is a class of people whether it is Government Ministers or Football Bigwigs who can somehow get around the rules, that offends people and im not sure, the interesting people there, but theyll be interesting to see. The Health Secretary, he formulated the rules and admitted he crossed them. Ijust would occasionally like to see a Government Minister resigned and acknowledged eric. I wouldnt say that should be the end of his career. I would like to see him back. Hes been a good minister and an Effective Minister largely in my view. Come back in six or 12 months but admit there are consequences for actions like this. Why wouldnt for example, the Prime Minister get rid of him . Labour and the Lib Dems that he should go. Why wouldnt Boris Johnson the Lib Dems that he should go. Why wouldnt borisjohnson think . You think you made the rules but then you broke the rules that you made, so you have to go. Im you broke the rules that you made, so you have to go. Im disappointed the Prime Minister so you have to go. Im disappointed the prime Minister Hasnt so you have to go. Im disappointed the prime Minister Hasnt made i so you have to go. Im disappointed| the prime Minister Hasnt made that conclusion. I was someone who went dominic cummings was at the centre of a Similarfirestorm Dominic Cummings was at the centre of a similar firestorm thought it is important that the people at the Centre Of National Life Come Introducing Rules where all sorts of people watching this programme now wont be able to hug their Loved Ones or attend the funerals or other important events in their family cycle, they i think need to see that government is not above the rules that they said. My suspicion is, this is what im hearing from various sources, is that number ten is worried that if for example Matt Hancock was to go, there may be pressure in investigations of other people and other ministers possible transgressions as well and i think pushing back at this one, they are hoping they will protect other ministers as well. We hoping they will protect other ministers as well. Hoping they will protect other ministers as well. ~. , , ministers as well. We heard from the oster ministers as well. We heard from the poster earlier ministers as well. We heard from the poster earlier in ministers as well. We heard from the poster earlier in the ministers as well. We heard from the poster earlier in the afternoon i ministers as well. We heard from the poster earlier in the Afternoon Who. Poster earlier in the Afternoon Who says the question is really potentially cumulative, whether the public ultimately remember dominic cummings, they remember all of that last year at the height of lockdown, then they look at this from the Health Secretary himself, whether that builds up to my brother presumably the Prime Minister feels thatis presumably the Prime Minister feels that is not an issue or one of his reasons for not getting rid of it. You may be right. But this is about covid i think. This is what we have talked about. I may commit a supporter of the Conservative Party and i want them to be The Party of responsibility.
