the government tried to overturn that ruling but last week that was rejected. 0ur reporter anna collinson has seen the open letterfrom mps — and can tell us more about this case. this involved are women who had suffered abuse, stalking, harassment, at the hands of an ex partner. we are calling her women woman a because we can't reveal her name for safety reasons. she was living in a three bedroom property with her son, in a property specifically adapted by the police, called a sanctuary scheme home, and the idea is it gives domestic abuse victims the ability to live in their home safely. there were special security measures in place they are, as well as a panic space. but the introduction of the spare room subsidy also known as the bedroom tax came in in 2012 and cause problems for people like woman a. the way the bedroom tax works, it means if you receive housing benefit it can be reduced if it is deemed that you have too many bedrooms in your property. for woman a, she said it had devastating consequences for her and her little boy. her housing benefit was reduced by 14% because it wa

he has been in quarantine for around 30 days and has been talking to our reporter anna collinson from a secure unit in nebraska. he told us he and his wife have been shunned since going public. he started by telling us he began to feel unwell during his flight back to the us. i went on to america, i was feeling fine. went to sleep for a couple of hours and woke up with a very high fever. 0ver hours and woke up with a very high fever. over 103 fahrenheit. hours and woke up with a very high fever. 0ver103 fahrenheit. and so they moved me over to the bio containment area but it was that a spike happening very, very quickly that seems to be the common denominator for that seems to be the common denominatorfor nine out that seems to be the common denominator for nine out of ten people who get this. what's weird about the virus is unlike a cold, the fever and a dry cough where the only symptoms that i had. it was totally mild, not like a regular cold where you sneeze, sniffle, sore throat, none of that. i didn't even get body aches, i did not get chills and heavy sweating when i had my high

children lose out, and updating the system would cost around £15 million a year. 0ur reporter anna collinson has been investigating bereavement support payment since it was brought in in 2017. just explain what it is? bereavement support payment was brought in in april 2017, the idea was that any husband, wife, or civil partner, if they become a widow, which received as payment. if you have a child or children it is paid at a higher rate. you get a one—off payment of £3500 and 18 monthly instalments of 300 p. all parents make the same national insurance contributions, whether they are married or not, but if you are not married, a cohabiting parent, you get nothing, and with no support in place and people having to rely on things like food banks to get by. we have got this open letter today calling on that to change, what are they saying? the crux of the argument is why should a child who has no influence over their pa re nts' who has no influence over their parents' marital status not receive financial support and a parent dies. in the past 18 months been two landmark legal cases where it
