Pensions minister Laura Trott is asked if she agrees with Rishi Sunak's assessment that the pro-Palestine march on Saturday is "provocative and disrespectful".

She says: "I think everybody in government wishes these marches weren't going ahead this weekend."

Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday, she says, are moments to "pay our respects to veterans of this country, so nobody wants to see marches on the streets while that is happening".
