hello, i'm christian fraser. you're watching the context on bbc news. senate democrats are trying to push through legislation to protect ivf treatments, in response to the alabama supreme courts ruling that embryos are people.

lots going on either side of the pond on reproductive rates. but, in the wake of the alabama supreme courts ruling that embryos are people, senate democrats are putting down a bill to protect ivf treatments. the illinois senator tammy duckworth is daring republicans to obstruct legislation which would establish a federal right to ivf and other fertility treatments that are at risk in the post—roe era. senator duckworth is an iraq war veteran who suffered grave injuries in combat in 200a. her two children were conceived through ivf. the bill she has proposed would require unanimous consent in orderfor it to pass, and although many republican lawmakers have registered disappointment over the alabama ruling, at least one conservative senator is expected to object. amy yurkanin — senior health

reporter in alabama from ai.com. reporter in alabama from al.com. what some republican senators and lawmakers this week talking about the ruling from the supreme court saying, don't worry about it we will get it sorted. our people in alabama reassured? mat get it sorted. our people in alabama reassured? ., , ., , reassured? not everyone is reassured- _ reassured? not everyone is reassured. right _ reassured? not everyone is reassured. right now - reassured? not everyone is reassured. right now the l reassured? not everyone is - reassured. right now the legislature and lawmakers are indeed trying to put together a fix for this problem. but it is unclear right now whether the laws that are being debated right now, the bills in front of the house and the senate, will really fix it or not. some folks are saying that it may take a state constitutional amendment to fix the ivf issue and give people access to that treatment. if so, that would not be voted on until november. so thatis not be voted on until november. so that is quite a long way for people who would have had to have

procedures are postponed in the wake of this february 16 ruling. i was of this february 16 ruling. i was 'ust of this february 16 ruling. i was just thinking. — of this february 16 ruling. i was just thinking, when _ of this february 16 ruling. i was just thinking, when you - of this february 16 ruling. i was just thinking, when you talk - of this february 16 ruling. i was just thinking, when you talk about christian evangelicals and the ephemeral attachment they have to all of these sort of things, reproductive rights, some people may go along with it until it starts to impinge on their freedoms directly. this is the flip side of roe v wade, lots of families who may have very strong feelings on abortion who have used ivf and seen as the miracle at that it has been for many families. has it split opinions at the ballot? i think this has certainly proved to be a less popular issue for conservatives and republicans in the state ban abortion. obviously most voters in alabama propose abortion —— oppose or portion. we do not have access in the seat and that is widely supported in the state. but i

think this ruling is really shook people even those who support those anti—abortion policies. you are right, a lot of conservatives do use fertility treatments including ivf, so i think you are seeing republicans right now try to figure out how to fix this. and how to restore that access. like i said, because it really is not in a popular move to have the shutdown, all of the sudden in the wake of this shocking decision some people shocked, not all. we this shocking decision some people shocked, not all.— this shocking decision some people shocked, not all. we have seen how the dobbs ruling _ shocked, not all. we have seen how the dobbs ruling plays _ shocked, not all. we have seen how the dobbs ruling plays in _ shocked, not all. we have seen how the dobbs ruling plays in the - the dobbs ruling plays in the elections, probably a lot of the things that went wrong for republicans in the midterm elections two years ago were down to the abortion issue because it was not on the ballot in 2020. we forget. we know this how this will be used by

democrats, presumably in the procedure today in the senate some stay up and it will be on the ads and it will be political problem for democrats all the way to november. i democrats all the way to november. i think you must remember house republicans introduced a bill with respect _ republicans introduced a bill with respect to ivf. president trump is already— respect to ivf. president trump is already gone on record to say that the alabama legislature needs to fix these _ the alabama legislature needs to fix these mistakes. so what i am hearing and some _ these mistakes. so what i am hearing and some people are hearing our voices_ and some people are hearing our voices of— and some people are hearing our voices of reason saying, we need to find a _ voices of reason saying, we need to find a fix _ voices of reason saying, we need to find a fix to— voices of reason saying, we need to find a fix to this particular situation. what you heard from dobbs as a lot _ situation. what you heard from dobbs as a lot of— situation. what you heard from dobbs as a lot of voices within reason saying. — as a lot of voices within reason saying, now people have overturned roe v _ saying, now people have overturned roe v wade, we will send it to the states— roe v wade, we will send it to the states and — roe v wade, we will send it to the states and let'sjump roe v wade, we will send it to the states and let's jump and make roe v wade, we will send it to the states and let'sjump and make it roe v wade, we will send it to the states and let's jump and make it a national issue and demand a proportion of six weeks. we are not seen _ proportion of six weeks. we are not seen that — proportion of six weeks. we are not seen that. we are seeing recognition of the _ seen that. we are seeing recognition of the line _ seen that. we are seeing recognition of the line of abortion is a hot political— of the line of abortion is a hot political potato and they need to manage — political potato and they need to manage it appropriately. i see the exact— manage it appropriately. i see the exact different response from the roe v _ exact different response from the roe v wade being overturned with

came down. that has been a week since then. they have shown no signs of restarting their process right now. so it is going to take some action either in the legislature or potentially a constitutional amendment to get this axis restored here in alabama.— amendment to get this axis restored here in alabama. thank you very much for that, here in alabama. thank you very much forthat. amy- — most people think this is just an american issue, of course people looked to the united states for their example. tonight, the french senate has approved a bill that aims to enshrine abortion rights in the constitution. president emmanuel macron last year pledged to inscribe the right to terminate a pregnancy, which has been legal in france since 1974, in the constitution after the us supreme court gave states the power to ban or curtail abortion. france's lower—house national assembly voted overwhelmingly in favour of making it a "guaranteed freedom" in late january, almost all members of macron's centrist minority coalition got behind it. it a "guaranteed freedom" in late january, almost all members of macron's centrist minority coalition got behind it. the president said on x

he is very pleased with the result and is expected to sign it into law next month. there is the issue. there are lots, even into france, there are right—wing senators who do like this. and leaders feel they have to move in response to what happened in the united states. yes. move in response to what happened in the united states.— the united states. yes, and people can have a — the united states. yes, and people can have a different _ the united states. yes, and people can have a different opinion - the united states. yes, and people can have a different opinion and . the united states. yes, and people| can have a different opinion and can feel abortion is not right for them but it comes down, and i hope it is something that when america gets around to having its own renaissance that it enshrines its own constitution, but every individual male female or otherwise has the right to remove something from their body if it does not want it there or if it will cause them some illness or harm. when i was pregnant, one thing i had to consider before, when having scans, whether you are not sure if the baby is ok, one thing i must consider it was the possibility of attendant conditions seen in my fifth family and i wrestled with a

bit and i decided that as her mother the best thing i could do for my daughter, if she had that condition, would be to terminate because i was saving herfrom would be to terminate because i was saving her from a would be to terminate because i was saving herfrom a lifetime, a very short perhaps a lifetime of misery and pain and a difficulty in childbirth and everything else. and it would be, myjob as her mother to protect herfrom it would be, myjob as her mother to protect her from that, as opposed to myjob protect her from that, as opposed to my job as a protect her from that, as opposed to myjob as a mother to birth her no matter what and force her to endure a difficult situation. not every woman has the same idea, but i think you must be able to have those feelings and come to a decision yourself. it is up to the individual when it boils down to it. it should be something whether brian, me or you that we all have the right to say, do you know what, i don't like that kidney, it's not doing me any favours, i need to take an whatever part of the body that is not doing you the thing that you wanted to do. it is not up to us not someone else. it is not up to us not someone else. i know brian agrees with that because we've talked about it many times before.

here's the reaction of congresswoman alexandria ocasio—cortez as the committee members emerged. what we just witnessed over the last hour was, i think, a deep sea fishing expedition. because the republican case has completely fallen apart over the last several weeks. after it has been exposed that one of their most key pieces of information was based on a source that was in communication with russian intelligence. they are now trying to scramble to find anything to substantiate their fairy tale, is what we should call this. but i think more disturbingly, we are seeing just a complete, inappropriate expedition into the president's son and for matters on subjects that are completely unrelated to an impeachment investigation. let's get the republican view.

fishing expedition, worthwhile or is it starting to backfire? it is it starting to backfire? it is lookin: it starting to backfire? it is looking like _ it starting to backfire? it is looking like it _ it starting to backfire? it is looking like it is _ it starting to backfire? it is looking like it is backfiring. i think— looking like it is backfiring. i think the _ looking like it is backfiring. i think the republicans have always said once — think the republicans have always said once they are given access to the credit— said once they are given access to the credit card statements of hunter biden— the credit card statements of hunter biden and _ the credit card statements of hunter biden and joe biden that is where they feel— biden and joe biden that is where they feel the evidence exists for this _ they feel the evidence exists for this i_ they feel the evidence exists for this. i have not seen and have not gotten _ this. i have not seen and have not gotten access to credit cards and now have — gotten access to credit cards and now have permission to get access and that— now have permission to get access and that may be their final swing stuff _ and that may be their final swing stuff but — and that may be their final swing stuff but it looks like a flop so far. stuff but it looks like a flop so far i — stuff but it looks like a flop so far. ., ., stuff but it looks like a flop so far. . ., , , stuff but it looks like a flop so far. ., ., , , time on your stories. and now it is time on your stories. and now it is time for the panel. we will start with you, susie. the duke of is one of the things that i think perhaps harry and a lot of other people did not quite compute that the erson

people did not quite compute ii�*ué�*ii the person that stands next to you is one of them. so to have one officer guarding you round the clock would actually involve three plus working in shifts. and if you're going to be in a different country than they must�*ve time to have go home and see their families so if prince harry was ever going to have the full boreal security had as a working memorial in the uk, in california where is he gallivanting around the world it would require a team of coppers bigger than the actual looks after the king. band team of coppers bigger than the actual looks after the king. and we would be picking _ actual looks after the king. and we would be picking up— actual looks after the king. and we would be picking up the _ actual looks after the king. and we would be picking up the bill? - actual looks after the king. and we would be picking up the bill? it- would be picking up the bill? it would be picking up the bill? it would be picking up the bill? it would be clearly ridiculous. fundamentally, we have been discussing today, if you don't have access to the british police security police system and intelligence you do not have the right of a police officer to have asked him to move on or arrest them and you don't get a cat. so there is not. at the fundamental thing really is if you don't work for the british taxpayer any more, than the british taxpayer any more, than the british taxpayer doesn't pay your bills. that is how it works. i taxpayer doesn't pay your bills. that is how it works.— taxpayer doesn't pay your bills.

through — a relief after their defeat in the league cup final at the weekend they'll be at home to leicester in the quarter—finals. fresh from their league cup triumph, liverpool's quadruple quest continues after they beat southampton 3—0 thanks to goals from two 18—year—olds. lewis koumas scored the first and another liverpool youngster jayden danns added two more wit his first goals for the club. and they will play manchester united in the quarterfinals, they beat nottingham forest 1—0, thanks to casemiro's goal in the final minute of normal time. wolves hae beaten brighton 1—0, mario lemina with the winner. they'll play coventry at home in the last 8. rangers have come from behind in the scottish premiership to maintain their lead over celtic at the top of the table. celtic were rampant against dundee, scoring seven goals from 7 different goalscorers,

that finished 7—1 and they would've gone above rangers with a win, but tom lawrence made it 2—1 to philip clement's side at kilmarnock, so rangers are still two points clear. just four days ahead of formula one's opening grand prix of the season in bahrain, red bull's team principal christian horner has been cleared of inappropriate and controlling behaviour towards a female collegaue. red bull say the investigation has been "fair, rigorous and impartial". our sports news correspondent laura scott reports. christian horner has been at the helm of red bull racing for nearly two decades building the team into a dominant force and become one of the most recognisable faces in the paddock often alongside his former spice girl wife. but his future in the sport was put in jeopardy when allegations of inappropriate behaviour were made against him by a female colleague. at the recent season launch he emphatically maintained his innocence. can you guarantee you have never behaved inappropriately

towards a colleague? i deny any accusations that have been made against me. with the season looming, key figures in the sport had called for a swift resolution. it is very concerning, the allegations are extremely serious and it is certainly seems like things should be coming to an end here quickly because we really need to be talking about formula 1 as we go to the start of the year. just 72 hours till the first race, came the news that he had been cleared of misconduct following an independent investigation with a statement from the parent company saying... while everyone here at the team's base in milton keynes has been trying to operate as close to business as usual as possible, christian horner has acknowledged this matter has been a distraction

as the start of the season looms. only time will tell if results on the track will reflect that. this was horner in for testing now knowing he will stay on as chief. he and sport organisers will be relieved that the investigation was completed before the lights go out for the first grand prix of the year but given the chance of an appeal, this might not be the end of the road. andy murray say�*s he's unlikely to play beyond the summer, but hopes to be given another chance to compete at what would be a fifth olympic games. the three—time grand slam winner took olympic gold at both london 2012 and rio 2016. but he's struggling this season — murray lost in straight sets to ugo humbert in the second round of the dubai championships. he say�*s he's getting bored of questions about his future and won't talk about it again until he decides to quit. he's currently ranked 67th in the world but could get into the draw for the paris olympics as a former champion. and, england s mel reid has been named as one of suzann pettersen's

for vice captain's for tis year's solheim cup in the usa. the six—time ladies european tour winner, joins dame laura davies, anna nordqvist and caroline martens as vice—captains for the prestigious biennial competition. europe will be bidding to keep the trophy for a historic fourth time when it takes place in virginia, in september. and that's all the sport for now. hello. well, it's certainly been a cloudy day today. the cloud has been extensive across the uk — but we did manage a few breaks in the cloud, particularly across northern and eastern scotland, and to the eastern side of the pennines, as well. and that did allow some limited bright spells through — edinburgh, one of the cheerier places. otherwise, there was some drizzle, particularly across western areas. it was mild — 13 celsius recorded in exeter earlier on. now overnight tonight, we've got a band of rain that's set to move its way southwards and eastwards across the country. that will clear away from scotland and northern ireland, where we'll see some fairly heavy showers working in during the second half of the night.

temperatures about 5—6 celsius in the north, but ten across east anglia, in southeast england, where it'll be a very mild start to thursday. thursday will see cooler air work in from the north and west, but a weather front will bring some persistent outbreaks of rain across east anglia and southeast england, where it'll probably be raining, for some of you, pretty much all day. away from that, brighter weather conditions, but sunshine and showers for scotland and northern ireland where the showers will be heavy with some hail mixed in. temperatures about 7—9 celsius, so a smidge below average for this time of year. on into friday's forecast — where we've got this area of low pressure and this occluded front that's set to bring the risk of some hill snow. now, the risk area's really across the higher areas of northern ireland, the southern uplands, in scotland, peaks, pennines, cumbrianfells, and northern parts of wales. above 200 metres elevation — that's where the greatest risk of snow is. there could be some places that see a little bit more than five centimetres of snow bringing the threat of some disruption. however, at lower elevations

where the vast majority of us live, we're looking atjust cold outbreaks of rain. and underneath this slow—moving band of rain, i think for a good chunk of the day, temperatures really will struggle at around three celsius or so. away from that, we're about 7—9 celsius. on into the weekend's forecast, the same area of low pressure stays overhead. so it's an unsettled start to the weekend, a day on saturday of sunshine and showers. the showers heavy with some hail, thunder, a bit of sleet mixed — and still cold enough for a bit of snow across the highest hills in the north of the uk — and temperatures again just running a little bit below average, particularly so across the northern half of the country. a few more showers into sunday, then next week, rain at times in the west. largely dry across the east.

at ten: one of scotland's longest running murder inquiries is over, with police apologising for failings in their investigation. emma caldwell was strangled in south lanarkshire, back in 2005. today her killer was finally

brought to justice. did you kill emma? no, i never. - we look at why it took so long to arrest iain packer, and how this bbc interview, helped convict him. the widow of alexei navalny tells the european parliament her husband was tortured for three years, then murdered, on vladimir putin's orders. we are not dealing with a politician, but a bloody monster. has mob rule replaced democratic rule in britain, following protests over the war in gaza? rishi sunak thinks so. quite a thing for a prime minister to say too. he is talking about those recent protests, what is right, what is wrong and what does it mean to be british? there's a full assessment of last week's first moon landing of a spacecraft built by a private company. and in the fa cup, chelsea leave it late to beat

leeds at stamford bridge, to reach the quarterfinals.
