Peter Hain was interviewed by Sir David follwing the the EU summit in Seville. Mr Hain insisted that the Government had not been forced to tone down proposals to impose economic sanctions on countries which failed to curb illegal migrants, despite criticism that the final deal watered down Britian's plans.

Michael Portillo that he had felt "relieved" when he was knocked out of the Conservative leadership contest in July last year, after leading the field early in the battle.

He explained: "I was top in the first two rounds of voting, but I didn't have nearly enough votes to feel I had the mandate I needed". Sir Bobby Robson and David Davies spoke about England's defeat in the World Cup quarter final again Brazil, but they agreed that they were proud of the England team.
