there are still places that surprise me, even after travelling for nearly 20 years countries that appear to be one thing but, when you dig a little deeper, turn out to be something completely different. this is pretty spectacular. it is, it is. and i m loving all the colours. the cabo verde archipelago, located just over 600km from senegal s coast, is one of them. tourism has really picked up pace here in recent decades, and it s easy to see why crystal clear waters, golden beaches, year round sun, all the ingredients for an amazing holiday. but i feel there s so much more to this place just waiting to be discovered by travellers like us. and all you have to do is head beyond the beaches. i ve been lucky enough to explore a lot of africa, but what i ve heard about cabo verde is that you get this real sense of worlds and cultures colliding. so, if you take a look at the shops and some of the market stalls, they re selling african style arts and crafts. the churches look li

it s james in the studio in westminster. and it s chris in westminster too. so, the reason you were speaking to the labour leader, sir keir starmer, chris, was because he has made a big u turn today. yes. so this is on what he calls his green prosperity plan. this is the idea of throwing quite a lot of public money into kind of turbo charging what he thinks are the kind of industries of the future that might have a kind of green tinge to them. but they re also about, he hopes, providing the well paid jobs of the future, the industries of the future. two and a half years ago, he said labour would spend in government £28 billion a year on that. that was diluted in the summer of last year to £28 billion a year by the second half of a first labour term. so that would be sort of mid 2027, if they were to win the election and only if they thought it was affordable relative to their economic rules. last few weeks, quite frankly, they ve been in a complete mess about it and not rea
in a food emergency. people living in isolated areas in the north of gaza, have told the bbc that children are going without food for days, and they re using animal feed to make bread. the un say one in our households is facing a catastrophic lack of food, because of renewed fighting and aid convoys being regularly blocked from reaching some areas. the health ministry, run by hamas, says the death toll in gaza has now passed 28000. and panic is growing in the southern city of rafah, where israel is planning a full blown offensive. israeli air strikes are already targeting the city. the military says it killed two hamas operatives on saturday, and overnight strikes killed at least 17 people. rafah is overcrowded, with at least 1.4 million palestinians seeking shelter there. on friday, israel s prime minister benjamin netanyahu ordered the military to prepare to evacuate people sheltering in the city, ahead of a ground assault on hamas fighters. but with the rest of gaza in rui
