who s got loads to say. it s thangam debbonaire, shadow leader of the house of commons. hello, hello, hello. and thank you so much for mentioning us in the house of commons last week. this is how it went. the leader famously once reassured this house that another prime minister wasn t hiding under a desk. words immortalised on the bbc s newscast intro. now i hear from the parliamentary press gallery reception news that she s a big fan of the podcasts. so, mr speaker, i ll end by tempting her to update newscast and update this house. is that where the prime minister really was on monday evening, hiding under a desk? so this is a great way for our politicians to get on the podcast. just name check us in parliament, put us in the historic record forever for historians to read about. and then you can come on. yeah, but i m the first, i was the first to put newscast in hansard and that was very exciting moment. i mean, if this starts an arms race, it will be amazing. who knows? bu

And took a long time to offer the experience and learning to his elder daughter, elizabeth. there you have at the railings of buckingham palace, they are in line with tradition posting the formal notice. and that notice will say that her majesty queen elizabeth ii has died peacefully today at balmoral in scotland. the age of 96. the longest reigning monarch in british history. a lifetime of service to people in the united kingdom throughout the commonwealth and in many parts of the world. an example of leadership, which didn t stray into the realm of politics. and for lots of people,
