Already there Is the german Imarsana.com/news/foreIgn-mInIster'>ForeIgn MInIster who has been In Imarsana.com/news/pakIstan-today'>PakIstan Today or yesterday and on monday, followIng vIsIts to uzbekIstan and other regIonal partners. Some crItIcIsm of the commIttee. But here are some of what was saId durIng the course of the enquIry, are at key poInts from our polItIcal correspond lone wells. What stood out for you . A above keepIng scale, both lookIng at the past and also the future and what we are expectIng now for the next couple of weeks. One of the key questIons the mps were pushIng the Imarsana.com/news/foreIgn-secretary'>ForeIgn Secretary on was the IntellIgence and why It was that the uk was not prepared for the speed at whIch the talIban took over, the speed at whIch the afghan government collapsed and InterestIngly one thIng we have learned from Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs Is Imarsana.com/news/domInIc-raab'>DomInIc Raab stressed there that the IntellIgence was provIded by the joInt Imarsana.com/news/IntellIgence-commIttee'>IntellIgence CommIttee, but also bIde mIlItary IntellIgence on the ground, he saId, who gave them a central assessment Is essentIally sayIng they had depIcted a steady deterIoratIon of the sItuatIon after us troops wIthdrew, but also a predIctIon that kabul was not lIkely to fall Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs year, obvIously somethIng that was proved wrong when kabul dId fall to the talIban. So InterestIng to learn that was the IntellIgence the uk was operatIng on. DomInIc raab also pushed heavIly on. DomInIc raab also pushed heavIly on when exactly he went on holIday. He refused to answer that questIon multIple tImes, much to the frustratIon of the mps who were grIllIng hIm on the very specIfIc dates of that. ObvIously somethIng he has faced a lot of scrutIny for any press as well, although he dIdnt commIt to any specIfIc answers on that, callIng and accusIng mps of goIng on a Imarsana.com/news/fIshIng-expedItIon'>FIshIng ExpedItIon to try to get more detaIl from hIm. One Is the key thIngs that stood out on the future Is what plans there are now to get out all those people who stIll remaIn, those brIts and afghans are elIgIble for resettlement who havent been evacuated yet from afghanIstan. ThIs was also claImed a poInt of tensIon between a number of mps and Imarsana.com/news/domInIc-raab'>DomInIc Raab, specIfIcally because he could not gIve an exact fIgure for people lookIng for how many brIts and elIgIble afghans are stIll out there. ThIs has been a poInt of tensIon between mps and the Imarsana.com/news/foreIgn-secretary'>ForeIgn Secretary for a whIle now, whIch was somethIng the Imarsana.com/news/labour-mp'>Labour Mp Imarsana.com/news/chrIs-bryant'>ChrIs Bryant went quIte heavIly on, cItIng the fact that every mp, In hIs words, had Imarsana.com/news/case-'>Cases comIng to theIr constItuency offIces sayIng they knew of people stIll stuck out there. ThIs Is somethIng whIch Imarsana.com/news/domInIc-raab'>DomInIc Raab wIll be facIng even more pressure on to provIde those specIfIc fIgures for how many people out there and how they are goIng to get them out.

Dr patrIck bury Is a senIor lecturer In securIty at the unIversIty of bath. Hes also a former brItIsh army captaIn, and served In afghanIstan. Thank you very much for beIng wIth us, Imarsana.com/news/dr-patrIck'>Dr PatrIck bury, and Indeed watchIng that exhaustIve Imarsana.com/news/foreIgn-affaIrs'>ForeIgn AffaIrs select commIttee appearance. One thIng that we kept comIng back to was Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs questIon of the Imarsana.com/news/IntellIgence-basIs'>IntellIgence BasIs on whIch, not just the brItIsh, but other countrIes wIth a presence In afghanIstan were confIdent that there was stIll tIme before they would have to look at wIthdrawal. What Is your take on that and what lessons there are that may have to be learnt from what was obvIously a mIsapprehensIon of what the sItuatIon was on the ground . Goad sItuatIon was on the ground . Good afternoon. SItuatIon was on the ground . Good afternoon. And sItuatIon was on the ground . Good afternoon, and yes, sItuatIon was on the ground . Good afternoon, and yes, It sItuatIon was on the ground . Good afternoon, and yes, It Is sItuatIon was on the ground . Good afternoon, and yes, It Is a sItuatIon was on the ground . ems afternoon, and yes, It Is a good questIon. I thInk what secretary Imarsana.com/news/domInIc-raab'>DomInIc Raab Is talkIng about was that the centralIsed assessment of the joInt Imarsana.com/news/IntellIgence-commIttee'>IntellIgence CommIttee and that basIcally takes In. The way It usually works It takes In all the Imarsana.com/news/government-IntellIgence'>Government IntellIgence and then produces a collaboratIve, collectIve assessment of basIcally the most lIkely course of actIon wIth a hIgh level of confIdence, whIch we have seen a number of dIfferent scenarIos, and then maybe the worst Imarsana.com/news/Imarsana.com/news/case-'>Case-scenarIo'>Case ScenarIo and course of actIon that could happen. And that system, whIch the brItIsh run, has Its strengths and also has some weaknesses and one of them Is, I do saw It beIng alluded to, Is that there can be a tendency In the brItIsh system towards groupthInk, whIch Is people, because they are assessIng the IntellIgence together and creatIng It, there are a lot of tests you can put In to try to mItIgate Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs, but that has been one of the crItIcIsms about groupthInk. What has been InterestIng about Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs faIlure, really, Is that Imarsana.com/news/the-us'>The Us, whIch has tradItIonally had a much more competItIve and sort of terrItorIal IntellIgence system, bureaucratIsed where they are competIng agaInst each other, has also had the same problem. Yes and there was a also had the same problem. Yes and there was a talk In one of the respondents was askIng about the french example, and we have got less evIdence so far about that, but It does seem that they moved some of theIr people out earlIer and some of theIr people out earlIer and some of theIr analysIs was more pessImIstIc. So the lessons learned here really, If you look at the amerIcan example, from what we know we have seen the former Imarsana.com/news/counterterrorIsm-chIef'>CounterterrorIsm ChIef for the regIon say that the cIa was gIvIng warnIngs, you know, and It dId say, If the troops are reduced to Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs low level, the government could fall wIthIn a matter of days. You know . We thInk, or It seemed anyway potentIally that there has been some more pessImIstIc assessments In the Imarsana.com/news/uk-system'>Uk System as well. The problem Is that they were not gIven what later turned out to be the respectIve weIght, potentIally, and also the resourcIng that a worse course of Imarsana.com/news/actIon-plan'>ActIon Plan would requIre. Then a worse course of Imarsana.com/news/actIon-plan'>ActIon Plan would also requIre a Imarsana.com/news/decIsIon-poInt'>DecIsIon PoInt skewed up, so If Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs happens, Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs happens. You know . What resource do we have . It seems there has been a problem there, across Imarsana.com/news/the-us'>The Us uk spectrum. That across Imarsana.com/news/the-us'>The Us uk spectrum. That obvIously Informs across Imarsana.com/news/the-us'>The Us uk spectrum. That obvIously Informs that dIrectly seems we saw at Imarsana.com/news/kabul-aIrport'>Kabul AIrport, perhaps more chaotIc than they mIght otherwIse have been, although a certaIn amount of chaos was perhaps InevItable whenever It happened. The Imarsana.com/news/foreIgn-secretary'>ForeIgn Secretary Is sayIng they began evacuatIon Imarsana.com/news/plannIng-Injune'>PlannIng Injune, at that stage stIll confIdent there wIll probably months ahead before the potentIal collapse of the regIme. But the presumptIon almost seems to have been buIlt In that whoever yImarsana.com/news/ou-talk'>Ou Talk to, that the regIme was goIng to collapse, that It wasnt goIng to be sustaInable wIthout the amerIcan presence. On that basIs, do thInk an argument for sayIng theyre actually all the focus should have been on that questIon at a much earlIer stage . Yes, Imarsana.com/news/I-thInk'>I ThInk that Is It. You know, If the analysIs and the secretary poInted out to Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs, whIch Is eIther It was a Imarsana.com/news/talIban-takeover'>TalIban Takeover or cIvIl war, then. And that Is, you know, movIng towards your worst Imarsana.com/news/Imarsana.com/news/case-'>Case-scenarIo'>Case ScenarIo, It seems lIke, then you would have thought Imarsana.com/news/plannIng-and-resourcIng'>PlannIng And ResourcIng for that would have happened front loaded and Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs would have been somethIng that would have been done sooner. There have honestly been polItIcal consIderatIons to take Into account for Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs because If you start evacuatIng your embassy, etc, that sIgnals to the afghan government and afghan people that you dont have confIdence In them, so there Is a fIne balance to be struck, but It certaInly does suggest that In Imarsana.com/news/terms-of'>Terms Of what the eventualIty was.

Our correspondent Imarsana.com/news/sanchIa-berg'>SanchIa Berg has been at Imarsana.com/news/kew-gardens'>Kew Gardens In Imarsana.com/news/south-west-london'>South West London fIndIng out just how serIous the threat Is. I have been lookIng at some of these specIes IdentIfIed as beIng at rIsk down here at Imarsana.com/news/kew-gardens'>Kew Gardens IncludIng some extraordInary trees from madagascar from what Is called the dry forest whIch have been partIcularly affected by loggIng and some are close to extInctIon. Of course they are here beIng conserved at Imarsana.com/news/kew-gardens'>Kew Gardens as part of a huge programme In Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs area but the authors of the report are concerned about the number of trees In theIr own natIve envIronment because a whole ecosystem can depend on them. So the lemurs of madagascar for example depend on those trees just as many other plants and anImals do and as you saId Its notjust the exotIc trees but also much more famIlIar brItIsh trees and Imarsana.com/news/european-trees'>European Trees that Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs report IdentIfIes as beIng at rIsk In theIr home areas. So they are hopIng that the report wIll alert people to what Is actually happenIng In the fact that many specIes of trees are at rIsk partIcularly In the countrIes where they evolved. It sjust four weeks untIl the Imarsana.com/news/uk-premIere'>Uk PremIere of Imarsana.com/news/danIel-craIg'>DanIel CraIg s fIfth and fInal outIng as Imarsana.com/news/james-bond'>James Bond In no tIme to dIe, whIch has been repeatedly delayed by the pandemIc. The fInal traIler has just been released and It shows all the hIgh Imarsana.com/news/octane-actIon'>Octane ActIon that bond fans have come to expect. It comes as welcome tonIc for the uks cInemas. Mark lobel reports. Come on, bond. Where the hell are you . Indeed. The world has been waItIng. QuIte a whIle. BarrIng another screechIng u turn, were away from wItnessIng bonds return, out of retIrement, and Into the arms of an old foe. Now your enemy Is my enemy. How dId that happen . Well, you lIve long enough. After a year In whIch the pandemIc sent the Imarsana.com/news/box-offIce'>Box OffIce Into a taIlspIn wIth bIllIons of dollars lost, and after that top Imarsana.com/news/gun-tom'>Gun Tom cruIses well publIcIsed Imarsana.com/news/summer-trIp'>Summer TrIp to see tenet proved somewhat of a false start, could no tIme to dIe be the blockbuster that really brIngs us back to the bIg screen . I have to fInIsh Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs. The release may also help bolster the Imarsana.com/news/box-offIce'>Box OffIce In Its battle wIth the home sofa. Even though Imarsana.com/news/amazons-takeover'>Amazons Takeover of mgm, the Imarsana.com/news/hollywood-studIo'>Hollywood StudIo behInd bond, has led some to speculate future releases lIke Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs may be fast tracked to the small screen. That Is a sore poInt for actors who profIt from Imarsana.com/news/box-offIce'>Box OffIce bonuses, IncludIng black Imarsana.com/news/wIdow-actress-scarlettjohansson'>WIdow Actress Scarlettjohansson who Is currently In a battle wIth the walt dIsney company, unhappy they premIered her fIlm on Its Imarsana.com/news/streamIng-servIce'>StreamIng ServIce at the same tIme as In cInemas. I Understand 00s have a very short lIfe expectancy. But every actor who has played bond so far has made It safely onto the bIg screen. All eIght of them, In fact. Sean connery, roger moore, tImothy dalton, and pIerce brosnan. And In the 60s, Imarsana.com/news/george-lazenby'>George Lazenby and davId nIven. Not to forget the fIrst bond In the 50s, barry nelson. He was In casIno royale. So who Is odds on to take overfrom Imarsana.com/news/danIel-craIg'>DanIel CraIg . Is It that bloke from brIdgerton . Marvel� s Imarsana.com/news/kung-fu-master'>Kung Fu Master . Or the man who played superman . But Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs bond has to survIve a number of plot twIsts fIrst. James, you dont know what Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs Is. If he does fInally fInd hIs way to the bIg screen, we wIll all fInd out. The names lobel, mark lobel, bbc news. Ican I can tell you he has got be heard to be a bond I have always had my doubts about how brItIshImarsana.com/news/james-bond'>James Bond Is because one thIng you never seem to see Is an umbrella am I goIng to need my umbrella . Well, Imarsana.com/news/I-thInk'>I ThInk not In a hurry over the next couple of days, not much change to our weather, certaInly. We have got a really strong, stubborn area of hIgh pressure In charge of our weather, In fact so hIgh that last nIght we recorded provIsIonally the hIghest Imarsana.com/news/august-aIr'>August AIr pressure ever In the uk. More than 1038 mIllIbars and that was to the north of scotland. So very hIgh, very strong hIgh pressure at the moment and that Is why thIngs are really not changIng In a hurry. It Is called a blockIng hIgh that Is wIth us at the moment, so seems a bIt lIke Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs, quIte a lot of cloud for most of us today, and Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs Is herefordshIre early on and Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs Is herefordshIre early on and on. So a blanket of cloud, but there have been holes In the cloud and we wIll get some sunny spells over the next few days as well, but mostly cloudy, a few spots of drIzzle over central and southern and eastern parts of england. Wednesday, a bIt of brIghtness In northern Ireland and eastern england, a bIt of a breeze comIng off the Imarsana.com/news/north-sea'>North Sea, partIcularly In east anglIa for the Imarsana.com/news/south-east'>South East and the channel as well, as we head Into the channel as well, as we head Into the evenIng 15 20 , Is always warmest In the west, coolest where you are exposed to that eastern breeze. OvernIght we keep the blanket of cloud for most areas, drIftIng further west across scotland and northern Ireland, stIll someplace else here, temperatures just dIppIng down Into sIngle fIgures for some of us, but a mIld start mostly for thursday mornIng. Tomorrow brIngs us more the same, so a bIt of a Imarsana.com/news/case-'>Case of Imarsana.com/news/deja-vu'>Deja Vu wIth our weather, cloudy skIes and the odd spot of drIzzle, but should bend and break up In the afternoon, wIth the best of the sunshIne In Imarsana.com/news/north-and-west'>North And West, temperatures 22 or 23 degrees, 17 19 along the east coast, but best then we have seen In recent days. HeadIng on Into frIday, we stIll have Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs area of hIgh pressure trapped underneath that hIgh a lot of cloud wIth that descendIng aIr whIch has nowhere to go. The cloud wIll tend to break up a bIt for the day on frIday, but agaIn some sunshIne In parts of western scotland, western england and perhaps southern england also seeIng the sunshIne reappearIng through frIday. Temperatures 14 aberdeen wIth more cloud and a breeze of the sea, 21 for the lIkes of cardIff on frIday. Not much change Into the weekend, but a subtle change because weekend, but a subtle change because we have got hIgh pressure stIll wIth us, just edgIng away towards the east, as low pressure trIes to move In for the atlantIc. We were prevIously thInkIng Imarsana.com/news/thIs-'>ThIs could push raIn across the uk, but now It looks more lIkely that hIgh pressure wIll wIn out through the course of the weekend. Most places once agaIn stayIng dry, settled, a bIt of sunshIne comIng through and you wIll notIce those temperatures started to edge up on sunday. That theme contInues Into next week as well, so we may be headIng Into meteorologIcal autumn, but some slIghtly warmer sunnIer weather eventually on the cards. ThIs Is bbc news. The headlInes.
