Final Ashes Test at The Oval as they attempt to level the series that was you 9 in that last 78 runs ahead today plate back under way at 11 Thanks so much today Rob Some people will never forgive me that's what David Cameron has said about his decision to cool the Iraq friend I'm in 2016 been speaking to the times it's in the Times magazine today the interview with the former prime minister it's ahead of his book launch he is really going for some leave backing colleagues for in his words trashing the government he also accused the current prime minister Boris Johnson of Michael Gove behaving appallingly during the referendum campaign thank you for all of the takes we've received on this keep those coming if you like it Anderson is a former political advisor he's a seasoned Tory and now chairman of the communications consultancy Cicero group good morning in a more interesting morning always good to speak to you what do you make of this I guess you know we're expecting him to go for a few of them won't we but. He's not mincing his words in respect to Boris Johnson Michael Gove in particular sure isn't just finding like go visit mendacious really saying both. ORUs and may have misled it's kindness maybe law eat to the nation at its worst. The referendum itself well this is the political blockbuster that all of us kind of political geeks and probably many of your listeners have been waiting for since he wrote Don't Mean Shit he was jus to publish the book last year because well we thought breaks it might have been done by now or certainly by the spring of this year but he's just cited to go for what while Boris is still grappling with all the issues to raise money add to go for I think it's going to be a real page turner page turner maybe but you know these comments saying that Michael. Govan Boris Johnson left the truth home during the ref a referendum campaign that they acted appallingly How do you think it will play for the current prime minister will it have any impact do you think well I mean you know whether or not the current prime minister is I think the expression some people might use economical with the actuality saying something that I think to some extent has been priced in the kind of questions by whether or not he's a straight shooter all whether or not that's a lot of plotting going on under the table Ali think people love made a judgment by this and it's like give her the l stress in British politics right now it's beneath a clear by whether or not you're a lever or you remain or on the central question right in front of us if you're a lever you tend to warm towards them and you probably give Doris a bit of slack I don't know if the Cameron book is going to make any difference to that perception if you are. If you are a main are then you're not going to come up Boris any slack and it probably reaffirms all of your prejudices and it's interesting that we're so used to remain a leave of terminology now but he talks very clearly in his mind there was an inevitability about the need for a referendum that it was coming down the track and he was the one who just had to make that decision but actually in response to that there's been an awful lot of commentary on social media from people looking at polls pointing out polls from you know 2006 all the way up to the day the time that the referendum was announced and people sent it well actually people weren't really talking about it you know it that people only became polarized once the campaign invited them to do so OK so this is where you give me a chance to plug my book which comes home tax month I'll I. Really try to on. Pakis and I'm trying to on like it fell apart of you kind introduced me as a sort of Tory watcher Yes I have been a Tory watcher all my adult life and would go back 220-1220 third's seen. The Tory party was terrified put it you know that's not too strong a word it was terrified that Ukip as knowledge of fraud at the time was going to eat their political lunch just as we saw the Braves it Party. Be responsible mainly responsible for taking Tory support Dein to about 9 per cent in the European elections this year the Ukip effect was eating in 2nd serve if support So back to almost engineer straight out 2013 he stands up in the city in London and makes this speech and pledges a referendum he was being told by his closest political ally is then chancellor George Osborne Don't do this it's a gamble but his gamble was that he wouldn't necessarily get a majority only so out of 25th Yep and election the Liberal Democrats weren't supposed to do that well they would have been Nick Clegg would have been the break on this of course the Tories what time the Liberal Democrats pretty much and he got a majority and he had to do it and the rest as I say is history for now anyway thank you thank you very much indeed N N disinform a political advisor He's chair of the communications consultancy Cicero group we are going to speak to the captain minister Nikki Morgan in the next 20 minutes or so to get her thoughts on all of this is 10 minutes past 8 now yes 10 minutes past 8 we're also obviously talking about the Sohan Cup which will actually tee off well now 810 Let's go live to our Gulf correspondent in cannot say and what's the atmosphere like that we've actually got on the screen say yes I mean we can watch as we. Watson light Yeah it is absolutely terrific Michel the players just being introduced to the crowds packed grandstand 2 and a half 1000 odd people around this 1st tee one of the most intimidating environments to hit any golf shot they always say that whether it's the Ryder Cup the Solheim Cup hitting off the 1st tee so the nerves will really be raging right now and this opening foursomes match this is the alternative short format of the game the opening tee shot of this day the 2nd day will be hit by a Morgan Pressel just as it was on the opening day yesterday and of course you always get the great contrast in sound on these occasions it's been fever pitch on this 1st tee but now just a few stray voices as a couple of practice swings by Morgan Pressel and then it comes down to absolute silence for this opening tee shot on the par 4 1st as a bunker down the right hand side 225 yards away a 381 yard par 4 and remember it Europe to lead by 4 and a half points to 3 and a half as we head into this 2nd day still so much gold to be played and here is Morgan Pressel with the driver launching into the shot she bends down picks up the tee she is perfectly happy because that ball has landed in the left side of the fairways running down very nicely indeed. So there's the introduction for an unordered list who will be partnering and should say Morgan Pressel is reunited with Marina Alex for the Americans and it's Amban down making her debut alongside Anna North Chris to use the experience we'd who is playing her 6 Solheim Cup 32 years of age tall Swedish blonde haired woman and she now gets herself ready in the color scheme for Europe today as a kind of off pink kind of top it's a chilly morning where it. Specter really breezy conditions today there is the tee shot from an old course these days right number 60 in the world and that one landing in the fairway as well so 2 excellent tee shots to get this 2nd day of this Solheim Cup underway both players marching off all 4 of them indeed down towards the fairway and we are underway for day 2 of this Solheim Cup here at Gleneagles What are your expectations for today then enough to see you've got your best female Dolphus hoping to win that the trophy back from the United States how do you think it's going to play out well I think this sequence of matches is going to be very very important because although it is Europe who are leading on the scoreboard as I say by 4 and a half points to 3 and a half that pictures should it could be argued have been much rosier for the home team had it not been for a really spirited comeback by the Americans late on yesterday and they came from 3 down with 3 to play and one match one down with one to play in another to force Hobbs that really sent the momentum into the American locker room rather than the European one so I think that Europe of how to regroup overnight this opening sequence of matches is just going to be so so important we often talk about it at Solheim Cup Sinnott Ryder Cups about the importance of momentum that momentum was with America late last night the other thing to say Michel is that I really hope that they start playing quicker because yesterday the pace of play was absolutely appalling and that threat had to really you know it really threatened to spoil what should be a massive showcase for for golf and women's sport in general it would be I'm saying you know they hold it really on the clock today aren't make is that can't be the same yes almost 3 hours to play 9 holes and yet 2 hours 57 minutes to play 9 holes in match play albeit 4 balls in the afternoon so you do have 4 balls in play Rob. Too Was this the case with foursomes which is a quicker format in the morning but inexcusable really inexcusable a lot of chatter about it has to be stamped out but I don't know quite how bad is going to happen they are just so deliberate the referees seem to be impotent in terms of dealing with it and times yesterday it was like trying to watch bricks. You know just torturous. Facts so much what we'll be watching we've got on our screens now and he said the weather is OK up there and the rain is just. You have the route there is a little bit of rain in the forecast for later on the winds are going to freshen they could gust up to 40 mph that could slow down play as well but it's going to be testing conditions as this day goes on there right now now absolutely stunning a beautiful part of the world can see the Perth hills and a real spectacle here Runtastic stuff.

Very very shortly you know it's averse to less than. 5 Live at 3 o'clock we spoke to a couple of fans Marcus Rushford is going to be on Football Focus later on the B.B.C. History is on what it's like playing on the leg on a social right now everyone's confident in the manager for one and remain open to doing more is what he's telling us to to perfection. The initial response to his tactics is training has been phenomenal you know Plaza right behind him. What does he give the props to the previous incumbent for me just a plan is not a plan for just this isn't all fun for just the next game this is a problem for difficult for managers to do that because they don't think they need to be bought in a position where renowned we don't need this rotation of managers them because you never so different to see. Joe Samaria I think is is is very different for Frank is expected because he's played off the pitch in the stands plays a bit more. You think is a problem from or near the fact that he was in a top class player coming off a season now I'm going to be accessed online or in other places and the range may well have for a while I don't think it was a problem for him because he's obviously a top manager and he knows how to he has his way of saw Breeden people book for me I think just when a manager is played they've lived a different sort of the lifestyle of a left and they might be a bit more understanding so Marcus Russia clear he wants a bit of stability in respect of management at Manchester United you can see the full interview with him on today's Football Focus 12 o'clock on B.B.C. One and you can watch it on the B.B.C.
