The Prime Minister gives her clearest indication yet that leaving

:00:00.:00:07.

the EU is likely to mean leaving the single market.

:00:08.:00:11.

In her first television interview of the year,

:00:12.:00:14.

Theresa May says a new relationship is not about retaining

:00:15.:00:17.

Often people talk in terms as if somehow leaving the EU but somehow

:00:18.:00:31.

keeping bits of the EU. As Britain looks to relationships

:00:32.:00:34.

beyond Europe, Boris Johnson has been meeting members

:00:35.:00:37.

of Donald Trump's team in New York. Also on the programme: Four Israeli

:00:38.:00:39.

soldiers are killed after a lorry is driven into them in Jerusalem -

:00:40.:00:43.

the Palestinian driver is shot dead. Snow and sub-zero temperatures lead

:00:44.:00:49.

to deaths across Europe - from Poland to Italy

:00:50.:00:52.

and the Greek Islands. The Queen attends church

:00:53.:00:57.

at Sandringham - her first public appearance since recovering

:00:58.:01:00.

from a heavy cold. And who'll waltz away with

:01:01.:01:07.

the awards at the Golden Globes - and will it be any clue

:01:08.:01:11.

to Oscar success? The Prime Minister has said

:01:12.:01:33.

the Government will take back control of Britain's borders

:01:34.:01:36.

when we leave the EU and appeared to acknowledge that

:01:37.:01:39.

a new relationship is likely to mean In her first interview

of the New Year, Theresa May said we won't be keeping "bits" of our EU

membership and that she doesn't see trade and immigration

:01:48.:01:51.

as a binary - either/or issue. Mrs May said she'd be setting out

:01:52.:01:55.

details of her Brexit strategy Here's our Political

:01:56.:01:58.

Correspondent, Carole Walker. After six months in power, the Prime

:01:59.:02:12.

Minister has begun to signal what she wants from the Brexit

:02:13.:02:18.

negotiations. Brexit means Brexit. She knows that no longer satisfies

:02:19.:02:24.

anyone. She denied muddled thinking, said Britain would take back control

:02:25.:02:28.

of its borders and appeared to him that would mean leaving the single

:02:29.:02:34.

market. People talk in terms of somehow leaving the EU but keeping

:02:35.:02:40.

bits of the EU. We are leaving, coming out so the question is, what

:02:41.:02:46.

is the right relationship for the UK to have with the European Union when

:02:47.:02:50.

we are outside. The campaigners on both side of the argument took that

:02:51.:02:56.

as a clear signal we will leave the single market. Labour are not

:02:57.:03:00.

satisfied. She had one question put to her three times and still not

:03:01.:03:07.

answered it which was RU prioritising immigration over access

:03:08.:03:12.

to the single market. I think now from the triggering of Article 50

:03:13.:03:17.

and the most important negotiations for a generation, we need more

:03:18.:03:22.

clarity. But Nicola Sturgeon want any move to take Scotland out of the

:03:23.:03:27.

single market could trigger a second referendum on independence. They

:03:28.:03:33.

will be making a big mistake if they think I am nothing. We have to ask

:03:34.:03:40.

ourselves if we are happy with the kind of country we want to be

:03:41.:03:46.

determined by a right-wing power. Theresa May does not want her time

:03:47.:03:51.

in Downing Street to be defined by Brexit and she stressed that

:03:52.:03:54.

referendum vote was a demand for wider change to the way the country

:03:55.:04:00.

is run, so she is promising a programme of social reform which she

:04:01.:04:03.

says will help not just the poorest but every level of society. It is

:04:04.:04:10.

about us recognising our obligations as citizens within the communities

:04:11.:04:16.

we have here in the UK. It is about recognising that there is a role for

:04:17.:04:21.

government but it needs to ensure it is acting effectively in those areas

:04:22.:04:26.

it should be taking action. She says her government will tackle the

:04:27.:04:31.

housing crisis, fix a broken markets and change attitudes to mental

:04:32.:04:35.

health. Her language is ambitious, she will be judged on whether her

:04:36.:04:39.

policies deliver the changes she is promising.

:04:40.:04:45.

Mrs May was asked about Donald Trump and we are told the Foreign

:04:46.:04:51.

Secretary has been there with his team. The government is stepping up

:04:52.:04:56.

the efforts to build a relationship with the President-elect and his

:04:57.:05:03.

team. Tonight Donald Trump, Boris Johnson had three hours of talks

:05:04.:05:07.

with key members of Donald Trump's team in Trump Tower. They included

:05:08.:05:14.

the President-elect's son-in-law and his chief strategic and I am told

:05:15.:05:18.

these discussions were frank but positive with both sides stressing

:05:19.:05:23.

the importance of the special relationship, laying the groundwork

:05:24.:05:26.

for the Prime Minister to go visit the new president later this month.

:05:27.:05:33.

Theresa May herself was talking about the importance of the special

:05:34.:05:38.

relationship today. She said she had good conversations on the phone with

:05:39.:05:41.

Donald Trump but she said she still found some of his comments about

:05:42.:05:46.

women in the past and acceptable. You do get the sense the government

:05:47.:05:51.

is having to work hard to make up the ground here and there is no

:05:52.:05:56.

suggestion Boris Johnson will meet Donald himself, whereas Michael

:05:57.:06:01.

Fallon arch, the former Ukip leader has had three meetings and got his

:06:02.:06:04.

seat booked for the inauguration ceremony.

:06:05.:06:05.

Four Israeli soldiers were killed in Jerusalem today

:06:06.:06:07.

after a Palestinian man drove a lorry into a group

:06:08.:06:09.

The driver, said by Prime Minister Netanyahu to be a supporter

:06:10.:06:15.

of so-called Islamic State, was shot dead at the scene.

:06:16.:06:18.

In the last 16 months there have been a series of attacks

:06:19.:06:21.

by Palestinians on Israelis - this was the deadliest

:06:22.:06:23.

Our correspondent Yolande Knell reports from Jerusalem.

:06:24.:06:35.

A hazy view of Jerusalem. This is what soldiers on a training course

:06:36.:06:44.

had come to see. Security camera footage shows two groups. The one in

:06:45.:06:49.

the background has just got off a coach when this happens. Look at the

:06:50.:06:53.

top left of the screen. The lorry drives that the soldiers at high

:06:54.:07:00.

speed and hits them. Then it backs up, apparently trying to crush more

:07:01.:07:04.

people before the driver is shot dead. Of all the soldiers of died

:07:05.:07:13.

were in their early 20s. More than a dozen were wounded. Witnesses who

:07:14.:07:16.

saw the aftermath spoke of their shock. I just saw the truck going

:07:17.:07:23.

from the road onto the sidewalk and just hitting the soldiers. It took

:07:24.:07:28.

me some time to understand it was a terror attack. The attacker was a

:07:29.:07:35.

Palestinian age 28 from a nearby area of east Jerusalem. You can

:07:36.:07:39.

still see the skid marks in the dirt here. This is the very spot where do

:07:40.:07:44.

soldiers were killed. There has been an upsurge in Palestinian attacks

:07:45.:07:51.

but this has been one of the deadliest scene. Visiting the scene

:07:52.:07:58.

the Prime Minister said this was similar to recent attacks in Europe

:07:59.:08:02.

and that it could have been inspired by the so-called Islamic State.

:08:03.:08:07.

TRANSLATION: We know the identity of the

:08:08.:08:13.

attacker. He was a supporter of the Islamic State. We know there has

:08:14.:08:17.

been a series of terror attacks. There could be a connection between

:08:18.:08:20.

them from France to Berlin and now Jerusalem. Israel has blamed

:08:21.:08:29.

previous attacks on incitement by Palestinian officials and social

:08:30.:08:33.

media. Palestinian leaders say they have been driven by anger after more

:08:34.:08:38.

than 20 years of on and off peace talks have failed to deliver an

:08:39.:08:40.

independent Palestinian state. And Yolande is live

for us now in Jerusalem. The Israeli cabinet met

:08:43.:08:44.

in response to this attack. The Israeli cabinet has been meeting

:08:45.:08:55.

and we understand that they have decided in a controversial form of

:08:56.:08:59.

deterrent to demolish the house of this lorry driver. Israeli police

:09:00.:09:05.

have moved into the man's neighbourhood. They have made a

:09:06.:09:09.

number of arrests including members of the man's family. The Israeli

:09:10.:09:14.

cabinet is saying it for now detained without trial those who it

:09:15.:09:20.

finds to be sympathising with Islamic State although it has to be

:09:21.:09:28.

said that actions inspired by Islamic State have been rare. What

:09:29.:09:34.

we have seen over the past 16 months in these Palestinian attacks, most

:09:35.:09:39.

have been nice attacks. There have been some shootings as well. About

:09:40.:09:44.

40 Israelis have been killed during that period and more than 230

:09:45.:09:49.

Palestinians have been shot dead. Israel says most of them were

:09:50.:09:54.

carrying out attacks, some were killed in clashes and in protest as

:09:55.:10:00.

well, but in the past few weeks, it had seemed there had been a big lull

:10:01.:10:04.

in these attacks and what will concern people now is any idea that

:10:05.:10:05.

that could be changing. Here, Israel's ambassador to Britain

:10:06.:10:09.

has apologised after a member of his staff was secretly recorded

:10:10.:10:11.

saying he wanted to "take Shai Masot, a political advisor,

of politics. But there is relief from the subjects with a simple

story harking back to the golden age of film. Which will prevail, we will
