Hello, im christian fraser. Youre watching the context on bbc news. The boss at bp is out over the partial story he told about his relationships in work. So what is acceptable in the workplace these days . Welcome back. The impeachment of bill clinton in 1998 for perjury and Obstruction Ofjustice was a truly earth shattering moment. But the decision taken yesterday by House Speaker Kevin Mccarthy to Impeachjoe Biden without even a vote on the floor was nothing of the sort. More the inevitable consequence ofjust how divided americas politics has become. Today, i am directing our House Committee to open a formal Impeachment Inquiry into president joe biden. This logical next step will give our committees the full power to gather all the facts and answers for the american public. Now heres what we know so far. Through our investigations, we have found that President Biden did lie to the american peoplel about his own knowledge of his familys foreign business dealings. Eyewitnesses have te
properly functional organisation works. if there is a dispute between two employees, there are a fair processes to arbitrate that. so i think fifa, uefa, may be the spanish government need to look hard at what s going on in this federation and decide if it is still fit for purpose or if it needs to be put in special measures or the like. fifa have launched disciplinary proceedings and they will run their course and of course he is entitled to fair process but i think the other side of fifa need to really think about the governments governance frameworks they can lay down with the national federations, setting conditions about diverse leadership, how players and members of staff are treated. all in all, i think this is a critical moment for football, at fifa level, faces some hard choices about what it really

the action that had been taken by the action that had been taken by the bbc, and how they felt about what gary lineker has done. the other issue going forward is the editorial guidelines, they are crucial to how the organisation works, the bbc coverage is built around that book that sits in the offices. there is the issue about discipline and how you discipline staff and freelance members of staff. this is not the first time gary lineker has run into trouble. one of the trade jeans at the bbc, spoke today about how to deal with that issue in particular, the union, bectu. i really don t want to speculate, but it would be churlish of the bbc to take action against staff and less famous freelancers if they chose not to arrive today, but obviously, they would have to deal with that, should the situation arise. i think more of concern, really, for me, is that this situation has caused a lot of concern for people working across the bbc, in relation to how they respond
