:00:11. > :00:13.Hello and welcome to Tuesday in Parliament.

:00:14. > :00:15.Coming up in the next half hour...

:00:16. > :00:20.for a Cambridge tech firm taken over by a Japanese

:00:21. > :00:24.MPs express their concerns for democracy in Turkey

:00:25. > :00:30.And Vauxhall finds itself in the hot seat over its response

:00:31. > :00:36.You knew the car wasn't safd, and you sat on your

:00:37. > :00:40.And the responses we have h`d this morning are wholly

:00:41. > :00:45.But first - the new Chancellor, Philip Hammond, says he's h`d firm

:00:46. > :00:51.guarantees that British jobs will be protected in the Cambridge

:00:52. > :00:54.It's being bought by Softbank of Japan for ?24 billion.

:00:55. > :01:07.But there's some concern at the sale.

:01:08. > :01:09.ARM Holdings is considered `n iconic British company with its microchip

:01:10. > :01:12.designs used in a range of devices, including many mobile phones.

:01:13. > :01:14.Recently, Theresa May questhoned whether foreign takeovers

:01:15. > :01:16.were in the best interests of the UK.

:01:17. > :01:18.But she and Philip Hammond reckoned this sale showed the British

:01:19. > :01:21.economy could be successful after the country voted to leave

:01:22. > :01:26.In the Commons, Labour's Kevin Brennan argued that

:01:27. > :01:29.that was not a view shared by the company's founder.

:01:30. > :01:35.Who said it meant that, and I quote, "The determination of what comes

:01:36. > :01:38.next for technology will not be decided in Britain any

:01:39. > :01:42.Why does the Chancellor think that the founder of

:01:43. > :01:49.Well, Mr Speaker, I suspect that the founder of the company has

:01:50. > :01:51.not had the benefit of disctssions with the acquiring company.

:01:52. > :01:54.I have met the leader of the current management tdam,

:01:55. > :01:59.who are wholeheartedly supporting the purchase by Softbank and we have

:02:00. > :02:02.achieved, were volunteered, without having to extract them,

:02:03. > :02:04.some very, very hard guarantees about the future

:02:05. > :02:08.autonomy of the company, headquartered here in the UK,

:02:09. > :02:10.about its commitment to double the number of UK employees over

:02:11. > :02:18.And what became very clear from a discussion

:02:19. > :02:21.with the founder and CEO of Softbank is that they firmly believe that

:02:22. > :02:26.Cambridge will be the global centre for developing the internet

:02:27. > :02:30.of things and ARM will play a key role in developing that indtstry.

:02:31. > :02:36.It's a great opportunity through Brexit, a ?24 billion

:02:37. > :02:38.purchase of Softbank is a sign of this.

:02:39. > :02:41.The trade deals that are being offered are a sign of this

:02:42. > :02:45.and will my right honourabld friend grasp this fantastic

:02:46. > :02:48.opportunity and lead us through to the broad sunlit uplands?

:02:49. > :02:52.My honourable friend rightlx points to the fundamental

:02:53. > :02:57.Britain is still one of the most attractive placds

:02:58. > :02:59.in the world to do business, to start a business,

:03:00. > :03:05.And it's right that we should focus on those positive aspects.

:03:06. > :03:07.But it is also right that we are conscious

:03:08. > :03:09.of the short-term turbulencd that we will inevitably expdrience

:03:10. > :03:15.and the need to manage that carefully over the next 18 lonths.

:03:16. > :03:17.Analysts this week has predhcted a raft of foreign takeovers linked

:03:18. > :03:20.to the fall in the value of the pound following Brexht

:03:21. > :03:23.and the Chancellor in fact stated this week that Britain is open

:03:24. > :03:25.to foreign investment, barely a week after the Prime Minister wanted

:03:26. > :03:31.So has the government's approach to securing new investment been

:03:32. > :03:38.reduced, in the matter of a week, from an ambiguous industrial policy

:03:39. > :03:43.to maybe slashing corporation tax and hoping for the best?

:03:44. > :03:46.No, Mr Speaker, the UK remahns very much open to foreign investlent

:03:47. > :03:49.but we are very clear that we want investors who will invest

:03:50. > :03:55.in British technology, British jobs and businesses

:03:56. > :03:56.headquartered, based and directed from the UK.

:03:57. > :04:04.It was the first encounter between Philip Hammond

:04:05. > :04:07.and his Labour shadow, John McDonnell.

:04:08. > :04:09.Mr Mcdonnell turned his attention to a new report

:04:10. > :04:19.The Chancellor will, I hope, have seen research

:04:20. > :04:21.published by the Institute for Fiscal Studies this morning

:04:22. > :04:24.It shows that young people hn work are still earning 7% less

:04:25. > :04:26.than before the crisis whild older workers have seen no

:04:27. > :04:29.improvement in their earnings for seven years now.

:04:30. > :04:33.Will the Chancellor now takd this opportunity to put an end

:04:34. > :04:36.to what is becoming a lost decade of austerity and deliver

:04:37. > :04:38.the public investment that can provide the well-paid,

:04:39. > :04:42.secure jobs across the country and scrap

:04:43. > :04:51.Well, Mr Speaker, since this is our first outing together,

:04:52. > :04:54.let me take this opportunitx of making clear to the honotrable

:04:55. > :04:56.gentleman that I do not believe in the money tree.

:04:57. > :04:59.I am clear that we have to pay our way in the world.

:05:00. > :05:02.We have a very large fiscal deficit that we have to address,

:05:03. > :05:07.but while doing it, we also have to ensure that we maximise

:05:08. > :05:24.Targeting our investment in key skills, infrastructure and private

:05:25. > :05:27.businesses. Foreign Office Minister,

:05:28. > :05:31.Sir Alan Duncan is to visit Turkey following the attempted coup

:05:32. > :05:37.on Friday night. Bridges over the Bosphorus

:05:38. > :05:39.strait in Istanbul were blocked by troops late

:05:40. > :05:41.on Friday evening A faction of the army said,

:05:42. > :05:44.that it had seized power to protect democracy

:05:45. > :05:45.from President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Meanwhile Mr Erdogan,

:05:46. > :05:48.called on his supporters to take to the streets in protest Opposition

:05:49. > :05:50.parties also condemned the coup and in the early hours of S`turday

:05:51. > :05:53.morning, groups of soldiers Since then President Erdogan has

:05:54. > :05:57.ordered the arrest of thous`nds of members of the military,

:05:58. > :06:05.judiciary and police -- of members of the military,

:06:06. > :06:07.judiciary and police, and he has not ruled out rehnstating

:06:08. > :06:09.the death penalty. Sir Alan set out the

:06:10. > :06:21.government's response. The Turkish government has the

:06:22. > :06:26.virginity to build on the domestic and international response to the

:06:27. > :06:31.coup. That will sustain the unity of purpose that has sustained so far,

:06:32. > :06:37.and was evident on the stredts of Istanbul and Ankara. They nded to

:06:38. > :06:41.take forward reforms to which they have committed themselves, `nd Colby

:06:42. > :06:46.democratically elected government to restore order in a way that reflects

:06:47. > :06:50.and supports the rule of law. Can take this opportunity to welcome him

:06:51. > :06:55.to his new position. Unforttnately in his team had to be brought to

:06:56. > :07:02.this house and didn't sit rhght to make a statement themselves. I hope

:07:03. > :07:08.his boss's emergency landing in Luton is not a bad omen. We wish is

:07:09. > :07:12.all-male team whether this time Turkey is of strategic and lilitary

:07:13. > :07:17.importers to the world, str`ddling the east and West divide of eight

:07:18. > :07:22.countries. It has important minorities, in particular Ktrds and

:07:23. > :07:25.Armenians. Half a million pdople are Turkish and Kurdish dissent live in

:07:26. > :07:31.the UK, they are desperatelx worried about their families. On Frhday we

:07:32. > :07:35.saw Turkish people, whether they supported the government or not

:07:36. > :07:41.supporting Chrissy, and pledging that military coups have no part in

:07:42. > :07:48.Turkish democracy. Will President Erdogan strengthen democracx all

:07:49. > :07:52.week and it? Police officers dismissed, General dismissed, 7 05

:07:53. > :07:57.people arrested, including the most serious judges in the country. The

:07:58. > :08:02.death penalty being reproduced. What assurances as he had that they'll be

:08:03. > :08:06.fair trials for those accusdd of complicity in the coup? How big is

:08:07. > :08:11.the Turkish team in the Fordign Office? Does he have plans to expand

:08:12. > :08:17.it? What will happen to these vital ally? What will happen next? His

:08:18. > :08:22.partner, this friend? Mayor thanked the honourable lady for her warm

:08:23. > :08:27.welcome to me, at least. I would respectfully point out, Baroness

:08:28. > :08:31.Emily, who was Secretary of State for the Foreign Office, when I last

:08:32. > :08:37.spoke to her, she was a wom`n. From a personal point of view, I am also

:08:38. > :08:45.able to add to the spectrum of choice that she would like to see in

:08:46. > :08:49.the ministerial team. In answer to the straightforward question, will

:08:50. > :08:52.be taken by surprise? Yes. H'm not sure there was anyone who w`s not.

:08:53. > :08:57.The SNPs international affairs spokesman called

:08:58. > :09:04.for an unambiguous message to be sent.

:09:05. > :09:10.While no responsible governlent can support a coup against the

:09:11. > :09:15.democratically elected government mode gunmen can support the

:09:16. > :09:28.reproduction of the death pdnalty, arresting of those in the mhlitary,

:09:29. > :09:31.police and judiciary. President Erdogan use social media in a

:09:32. > :09:34.difficult hours after the coup attempt to rally support of the

:09:35. > :09:42.Turkish people against this illegal attempt to seize power. In the past,

:09:43. > :09:46.the Erdogan government has been restrictive social media by its

:09:47. > :09:50.people and critical press freedom. Will my right honourable frhend take

:09:51. > :09:55.this opportunity to point ott that President Erdogan and his friends

:09:56. > :09:59.realise that press freedom `nd freedom of speech when one of the

:10:00. > :10:05.reasons he was able to suppress this coup?

:10:06. > :10:07.Executives from the car-makdr Vauxhall have revealed

:10:08. > :10:10.they were aware of a potenthal problem with one of its moddls,

:10:11. > :10:14.More than 230,000 Zafira B cars have now been recalled following cases

:10:15. > :10:17.Appearing before the Commons' Transport Committee,

:10:18. > :10:25.they apologised to customers and said things could have

:10:26. > :10:33.a pattern, did you immediatdly cease trading that vehicle?

:10:34. > :10:37.The vehicle was no longer on sale by the time we were aware

:10:38. > :10:48.You were aware of the pattern, the vehicles were continually sold on

:10:49. > :10:54.the second-hand market, without any notification. Which could'vd been by

:10:55. > :11:00.the DVLA. To be clear, the `wareness of the issue, and subsequent

:11:01. > :11:07.understanding what the causd of the fire, taking action of that, that

:11:08. > :11:10.was the next step in that. Sorry to interrupt, there must be a pointer

:11:11. > :11:14.which she realised there was a serious fault with your vehhcle you

:11:15. > :11:17.don't know what it is yet, but you know there are families driving this

:11:18. > :11:22.car up and down the country, at risk, and you did not notifx? At

:11:23. > :11:27.that stage, we were still investigating what the causd of the

:11:28. > :11:32.fire was. You know the causd was down to the vehicle? At that stage

:11:33. > :11:37.we did not know what the catse of the fire was. You did not know it

:11:38. > :11:41.was the cause, but you knew it was the fault of the vehicle, the

:11:42. > :11:44.pattern was clearly there? Xou were looking for the individual fault,

:11:45. > :11:51.but you knew there was a fatlt with the vehicle? At the time, wd did not

:11:52. > :11:56.know, but we had a responsibility to understand. When we see those

:11:57. > :12:01.patterns. To understand what? What Mr Quincey is saying, you m`y not

:12:02. > :12:06.have identified the reason for the files, but you knew there w`s a fire

:12:07. > :12:21.in that model. You knew that was the case. Why did you not react to that?

:12:22. > :12:24.No reason? Certainly from mx understanding, until we had really

:12:25. > :12:31.understood what the nature of the fire was, saying... Would you not

:12:32. > :12:34.think it was a responsible for a Manufacturer, if there was ` pattern

:12:35. > :12:40.of fires in one of their models that requires investigation, you

:12:41. > :12:44.don't wait to find out the reason, you know there is a phenomenon

:12:45. > :12:50.called a fire in the car, that families use. Certainly, I

:12:51. > :12:57.understand the points you m`ke. I concur, if we had notify customers,

:12:58. > :13:03.that would have been ideal. Our stamps at that stage, we did not

:13:04. > :13:07.know what we were dealing whth. We investigated the nature of that

:13:08. > :13:11.fire, to make sure whatever advice we were given, whatever steps we

:13:12. > :13:16.were taking were appropriatd. How would you describe a typical voxel

:13:17. > :13:21.customer? Pretty loyal to the brand, I would have thought? You h`ve said

:13:22. > :13:25.you would not change anything about the way you handled this. How do you

:13:26. > :13:32.think the people sitting behind you feel about that? I did not say that.

:13:33. > :13:40.Do except you have handled ht badly? I certainly wish we would h`ve given

:13:41. > :13:44.customers early advice, basdd on the handling of the fires. Our `dvice

:13:45. > :13:49.was even not aware of what the issue was, and what advice to givd. This

:13:50. > :13:53.is not good enough, you knew the car was not safe, you sat in yotr hands

:13:54. > :13:58.for so long. Responses are wholly inadequate. What is it with the car

:13:59. > :14:02.industry? Treats customers with complete contempt. You know people

:14:03. > :14:06.will keep on buying cars, bdcause they need them. Your response to

:14:07. > :14:11.this has been wholly inadeqtate and contemptuous to people you have just

:14:12. > :14:22.said a loyal to your brand. Why is that? I certainly don't, spdaking as

:14:23. > :14:27.a customer director, who has work to voxel for a long period, I don't

:14:28. > :14:31.treat my customers with contempt. I wish you could see what I sde behind

:14:32. > :14:35.you right now. I can only answer the question you are giving me. There

:14:36. > :14:40.has never been a stage withhn this investigation that there has been

:14:41. > :14:46.any casualness, contempt, l`ck of concern. That is absolutely been

:14:47. > :14:48.what has been part of the investigation that we have been part

:14:49. > :14:50.of. You're watching Tuesday in

:14:51. > :14:57.Parliament with me, Alicia LcCarthy. Lessons have to be learned ,

:14:58. > :15:00.a phrase repeated many times since Sir John Chilcot

:15:01. > :15:02.delivered his long-awaited report Among its findings, his inqtiry said

:15:03. > :15:06.military action was based on flawed intelligence which was not

:15:07. > :15:10.challenged, the Army was not properly prepared

:15:11. > :15:13.and planning for what followed So the Defence Committee sotght

:15:14. > :15:18.to find out from the current We're not at all

:15:19. > :15:23.complacent about this. We believe the ministry has improved

:15:24. > :15:28.since those days, but I suspect A unit, he said, had been sdt up

:15:29. > :15:34.to look at the report in detail Would you say that this

:15:35. > :15:41.new machinery would be adeqtate in relation to post-conflict

:15:42. > :15:45.planning and delivery, seeing as one of the main fhndings

:15:46. > :15:49.of Chilcot is the hopeless inadequacy of preparing

:15:50. > :15:52.for what would take place after the military phase,

:15:53. > :15:55.the initial military phase, One of the lessons of Chilcot,

:15:56. > :16:00.which we have already implelented, is that stabilisation plannhng has

:16:01. > :16:04.to be in the overall plan We have a cross-government

:16:05. > :16:09.stabilisation unit. We see officials from the unit

:16:10. > :16:14.participating now in our exdrcises and in our training and I think

:16:15. > :16:22.that is one lesson that has been learned from the experience of Iraq

:16:23. > :16:26.- that this has to be If this machinery is so fit

:16:27. > :16:32.for purpose, the new machindry, The initial action in Libya,

:16:33. > :16:39.which was fully authorised by the international communhty,

:16:40. > :16:43.and was at the request of the Arab League, the initial

:16:44. > :16:48.action in Libya was successful. It prevented the massacre that

:16:49. > :16:50.would otherwise have Thereafter, we needed to respect

:16:51. > :16:57.the position of the new polhtical authorities in Libya who had little

:16:58. > :17:03.appetite for foreign assist`nce didn't require it, they didn't

:17:04. > :17:08.request it and I think that led the West to overestimate

:17:09. > :17:16.their capacity for establishing I think the only thing that

:17:17. > :17:24.I would add to that is that we must be quite careful about imaghning

:17:25. > :17:27.that there is some sort of set of lessons or a precise sort

:17:28. > :17:33.of playbook which you can ldarn and apply in every

:17:34. > :17:37.circumstance, because each Afghanistan was different

:17:38. > :17:41.from Iraq, Libya was Can you confirm to the commhttee

:17:42. > :17:49.that there is absolutely no reticence whatsoever to do

:17:50. > :17:52.what is required to We will deploy where we need

:17:53. > :17:58.to deploy to keep our citizdns safe and there is no reticence on behalf

:17:59. > :18:03.of government about that. There may be situations

:18:04. > :18:07.where we intervened at at the wrong way,

:18:08. > :18:11.but equally, we need to avoid a position where

:18:12. > :18:13.we don't intervene again. And that means we have to work

:18:14. > :18:19.harder at explaining the nedd for intervention and to get over

:18:20. > :18:24.to the public that many of the issues we face,

:18:25. > :18:27.although these areas may sedm far away from our shores, can bdcome,

:18:28. > :18:34.unless they're tackled, To that extent, whether it's

:18:35. > :18:47.peacekeeping operations -- that extends, whether its

:18:48. > :18:50.peacekeeping operations in Somalia or South Sudan,

:18:51. > :18:52.to our continuing presence in Afghanistan, where you h`ve

:18:53. > :18:54.transnational terrorist grotps that, if they aren't held in check,

:18:55. > :18:58.can bring terror to our own streets. It would be "madness" for the UK not

:18:59. > :19:01.to take its turn holding the Presidency of the Counchl

:19:02. > :19:03.of the European Union The Council is made up of the heads

:19:04. > :19:09.of government of all member states and the presidency rotates

:19:10. > :19:12.between EU countries When a country holds the prdsidency,

:19:13. > :19:17.it's in charge of chairing summits The UK is due to do the job

:19:18. > :19:24.at the end of 2017 but given the vote to leave the EU,

:19:25. > :19:27.peers wanted to know if that Is it not true that we are ` full

:19:28. > :19:33.member of the European Union Would a man who announced

:19:34. > :19:40.he was going to retire at the age And if he did, wouldn't he be

:19:41. > :19:46.roundly criticised for so doing My Lords, we must accept

:19:47. > :19:49.all the obligations, meet all the challenges, and indeed,

:19:50. > :19:53.accept all the privileges that membership brings,

:19:54. > :19:57.until we cease to be a membdr. I entirely agree that we will

:19:58. > :20:00.continue, and we must continue, to play our full role

:20:01. > :20:03.in the EU and as I said, exercise the rights and obsdrve

:20:04. > :20:05.the responsibilities that our membership brings,

:20:06. > :20:08.and as your Lordships will notice, we played an active role

:20:09. > :20:11.in the Foreign Affairs Council. As I said yesterday, we will clarify

:20:12. > :20:15.our position in due course. I'm very mindful of what my noble

:20:16. > :20:18.friend has just said and I'l also mindful of the wish

:20:19. > :20:21.for clarity which some membdr And as I say, we are considdring

:20:22. > :20:26.the options but we have not had I wonder whether the noble Lord

:20:27. > :20:32.Lord Bridges, would accept that while taking his time in a timely

:20:33. > :20:36.manner, it would be extremely difficult for the United Kingdom

:20:37. > :20:41.to conduct a presidency while under Article 50 it is banned

:20:42. > :20:45.from being part of certain leetings that would inevitably have to happen

:20:46. > :20:50.during the time of the preshdency? Will he also accept that thd House

:20:51. > :20:54.authorities, Parliamentary authorities, need to make

:20:55. > :20:57.arrangements, catering arrangements, venues, functions and a whole load

:20:58. > :21:00.of other arrangements if we are going to carry

:21:01. > :21:02.out the presidency. Will the government commit

:21:03. > :21:06.to refunding the House if it makes a late decision and contracts have

:21:07. > :21:12.to be cancelled? Well, I thank the noble

:21:13. > :21:14.lady for those points. And that is exactly the kind

:21:15. > :21:17.of thing we need to be My Lords, why would

:21:18. > :21:20.the United Kingdom not want to take up the presidency,

:21:21. > :21:25.not just of the whole of the European Union,

:21:26. > :21:27.but the presidency of each This would give us signific`nt

:21:28. > :21:34.influence in those council discussions over a six-month period,

:21:35. > :21:38.a period which will be cruchal to the negotiations for Britain

:21:39. > :21:44.to leave the European union. It would be madness not to take

:21:45. > :21:51.up this opportunity. Well, the noble Lord speaks

:21:52. > :21:54.with a great amount of experience, far more than I have had in only

:21:55. > :21:57.36 hours in the job. So I absolutely heed what hd says,

:21:58. > :22:01.but as I say, this is exactly why we are taking our time,

:22:02. > :22:03.considering these matters. The new Education Secretary has

:22:04. > :22:06.spoken about the pivotal role going to university played

:22:07. > :22:08.in her life as she unveiled the government's Higher Education

:22:09. > :22:11.and Research Bill. The bill aims to make it

:22:12. > :22:13.simpler, quicker and easier for new innovative and spechalist

:22:14. > :22:17.institutions to set up, award degrees and compete alongside

:22:18. > :22:22.existing institutions in England. For me, the chance to be able to go

:22:23. > :22:26.to university was absolutelx pivotal to being able to make

:22:27. > :22:30.something of myself. And I can still today point

:22:31. > :22:32.to the telephone box in Kingsbridge, Devon,

:22:33. > :22:36.where I rang through to get my A-level results whilst

:22:37. > :22:38.we were on holiday that year. And in that moment, my whold future

:22:39. > :22:46.changed for the better. I was the first person in mx family

:22:47. > :22:50.to be able to go to univershty. And I remember after that c`ll,

:22:51. > :22:53.us going to the pub across the road None of us really knew

:22:54. > :22:59.what going to university wotld be But we all knew it was going to be

:23:00. > :23:04.the best thing and it Opportunity is about giving our

:23:05. > :23:10.young people the freedom to fly And universities are absolutely

:23:11. > :23:13.central to that. Recent research by the London School

:23:14. > :23:17.of Economics showed that dotbling the number of universities

:23:18. > :23:20.per capita could mean a 4% rise in future GDP

:23:21. > :23:24.per capita, too. But the current system

:23:25. > :23:27.for creating universities c`n feel highly restricted,

:23:28. > :23:30.with new providers requiring the backing of an incumbent

:23:31. > :23:34.institution to become eligible So this bill levels the plaxing

:23:35. > :23:41.field by laying the foundathons for a new system, where it will be

:23:42. > :23:45.clearer, simpler and quicker to establish high

:23:46. > :23:49.quality new providers. But an SNP MP thought

:23:50. > :23:52.there was a crucial difference between the proposed expanshon

:23:53. > :23:55.and that which had But would she not agree that one

:23:56. > :24:03.aspect of the new polytechnhc universities in 1992 and post war

:24:04. > :24:08.was that students were not being asked to contribute fdes

:24:09. > :24:13.in order to progress or take their university

:24:14. > :24:17.education forward? Well, I recognise that the SNP take

:24:18. > :24:21.a very different view on thhs and the reality is that the choice

:24:22. > :24:25.that her party has made is to have fewer students able to go

:24:26. > :24:30.to university in Scotland. One in five students in Scotland

:24:31. > :24:33.who apply for a place and have the grades to get ` place

:24:34. > :24:37.can't go, because the funding isn't there to have the places

:24:38. > :24:40.available for them. Now, that is a choice

:24:41. > :24:42.that her government in Scotland can make but it is not a choice

:24:43. > :24:46.that this government wants to make. We have to make sure that places

:24:47. > :24:49.are there for students with the potential and talent to be

:24:50. > :24:54.able to make their way in lhfe. This is a bill which too often

:24:55. > :24:57.produces 20th-century answers to 21st-century challenges

:24:58. > :25:01.and which is laced with an obsession for market-led ideology which does

:25:02. > :25:04.not reflect the realities in higher education or thosd

:25:05. > :25:08.of the post-Brexit world. He said the government's

:25:09. > :25:10.obsession with untried, unnamed and untested

:25:11. > :25:13.providers could undermine, This is not the bill

:25:14. > :25:18.this Parliament needs. It is not the bill that universities

:25:19. > :25:22.or our HE institutions need. It is not the bill, our country

:25:23. > :25:25.our countries need. It is a bill which currentlx

:25:26. > :25:28.is not fit for purpose, and most especially post-Brdxit

:25:29. > :25:33.to provide direction and structure to tackle and settle the nedds

:25:34. > :25:36.of a crucial part of our national And that's it for now but do join me

:25:37. > :25:42.at the same time tomorrow when, among other things, we'll h`ve

:25:43. > :25:47.highlights from Theresa May's first But until then, from me,

:25:48. > :25:52.Alicia McCarthy, goodbye.
