A missile, like this, failed to reach its target

:00:18.:00:21.

just weeks before a Parliamentary vote to renew the system.

:00:22.:00:25.

Did you know that misfire had occurred?

:00:26.:00:28.

Well, I have absolute faith in our Trident missiles.

:00:29.:00:31.

When I made that speech in the House of

:01:18.:01:29.

tonight to explain why MPs were not told a Trident missile test went

:01:30.:01:36.

wrong last summer. It happened just weeks before

:01:37.:01:39.

a crucial Commons vote on the future of Britain's nuclear deterrent,

:01:40.:01:41.

when Theresa May urged Parliament to back renewal

:01:42.:01:45.

of the weapons system. Today, she repeatedly declined to

:01:46.:01:47.

say whether she knew of the malfunction, when an unarmed missile

:01:48.:01:51.

failed to reach its target. Our Defence Correspondent

:01:52.:01:55.

Jonathan Beale reports. This is what the launch

:01:56.:01:59.

of a Trident missile looks like. Last June the Royal Navy carried out

:02:00.:02:02.

what it calls a "routine un-armed something went wrong.

:02:03.:02:07.

but we now know that HMS Vengeance was about 200 miles

off the Florida coast. It was to fire the missile around

the House of Commons? was a very serious issue.

:03:13.:03:14.

about in the House of Commons It was about whether or not

:03:15.:03:21.

we should renew Trident. Whether we should look to the future

:03:22.:03:23.

and have a replacement Trident. That's what we were talking

:03:24.:03:25.

about in the House of Commons. Jeremy Corbyn voted against it.

country with an independent for our nuclear deterrent.

:03:35.:03:40.

all the time, regularly What we were talking about in that

:03:41.:03:45.

debate that took place... I'm not going to get

:03:46.:03:47.

an answer to this. We understand the Prime Minister

:03:48.:03:49.

chose not to inform Parliament about this and it's come out

:03:50.:03:52.

through the media some months later. in the wrong direction.

:03:53.:03:56.

error when a missile goes Whilst the Ministry of Defence has

:03:57.:04:02.

publicised past success launches of the Trident missile,

:04:03.:04:05.

in this incident they say they would give no further details

:04:06.:04:08.

of the test in June, because of national

:04:09.:04:10.

security reasons. In a statement, the MoD would only

:04:11.:04:12.

say that the submarine HMS Vengeance and her crew were successfully

:04:13.:04:15.

tested and certified. But significantly, officials

:04:16.:04:18.

do not deny that there veered off course.

:04:19.:04:20.

or that it might have should have come clean.

:04:21.:04:27.

Navy says ministers There was some minor problem.

:04:28.:04:32.

since 1990, regularly, I don't think it would have made

:04:33.:04:49.

any difference at all. It was a stupid thing to do.

:04:50.:04:52.

it immediately makes you think - The Government still says it has

:04:53.:05:04.

absolute confidence in Britain's about its reliability.

:05:05.:05:08.

incident just raises questions How damaging is all this for the

:05:09.:05:15.

Editor John Pienaar How damaging is all this for the

:05:16.:05:26.

Prime Minister? Well, you only had to watch that interview, Clive, to

:05:27.:05:31.

see this is a difficult story, and an uncomfortable time with potential

:05:32.:05:35.

for political embarrassment. The betting is the Defence Secretary,

:05:36.:05:39.

Sir Michael Fallon, could well be asked to make a statement to the

:05:40.:05:47.

House of Commons tomorrow, on all of this and he could argue this was a

:05:48.:06:00.

routine test, that there's no realistic chance of a nuclear

:06:01.:06:09.

accidental strike on Moscow, let alone Florida. Experts would say a

:06:10.:06:21.

stray missile would be aborted long before it land on Disneyland. It's

:06:22.:06:30.

also true that most MPs at Westminster do

:06:31.:06:53.

The Prime Minister has also confirmed that she'll visit

:06:54.:06:55.

Washington for talks with President Trump on Friday,

:06:56.:06:58.

the first world leader to meet him since his inauguration.

:06:59.:07:00.

Mrs May said she would build on the special relationship

:07:01.:07:04.

she finds unacceptable. but would challenge any opinions

:07:05.:07:11.

We'll have an opportunity it talk Correspondent Iain Watson.

:07:12.:07:14.

We'll have an opportunity it talk about our possible future trading

:07:15.:07:21.

relationship but also some of the world challenges we face. It all

:07:22.:07:28.

sounds positive but the two leaders will have to square this circle. ! I

:07:29.:07:32.

want us to be a global Britain. As you can see, our business with

:07:33.:07:48.

our EU partners is worth far more than our trade with the United

:07:49.:07:54.

States. No trade agreement can replace or match what we will lose

:07:55.:08:01.

our own doorstep Europe. It is well known here that the team around

:08:02.:08:04.

Theresa May were not exactly the biggest fans of Donald Trump when he

:08:05.:08:08.

was a candidate, but as soon as he was elected his officials were

:08:09.:08:13.

dispatched to the States trying to mention -- men

:08:14.:08:15.

now the Prime Minister insists she still isn't fair to raise really

:08:16.:08:21.

difficult issues with the new leader of the free world.

:08:22.:08:32.

Theresa May was a little coy on what she would say face-to-face with

:08:33.:08:38.

Donald Trump, but... I think the biggest game of that will be made

:08:39.:08:41.

about the role of women is the fact I will be there as a female role

:08:42.:08:52.

model. In the 80s, Mrs Fach and Ronald Reagan had a close and candid

:08:53.:08:58.

relationship. -- magus -- Mrs Thatcher.

:08:59.:09:07.

"tooth and nail", over to fight the news media

:09:08.:09:11.

what officials see as unfair attacks on Donald Trump.

:09:12.:09:13.

The new President has taken issue with estimates

:09:14.:09:15.

of the size of the crowd at his inauguration on Friday.

:09:16.:09:18.

His press secretary says it was the biggest

:09:19.:09:19.

in history for such an event, but as our North America

:09:20.:09:22.

support the claim. the evidence doesn't

:09:23.:09:32.

The weightiest issues on the planet were discussed

:09:33.:09:35.

at Donald Trump's inaugural address, but what the president is in a white

:09:36.:09:38.

rage about are suggestions that the crowds for him were not

:09:39.:09:43.

as big as they were for Barack Obama eight years ago, even though

:09:44.:09:47.

the evidence is incontrovertible, as these two photos,

:09:48.:09:51.

started, make plain. before the inauguration

:09:52.:09:56.

But last night, journalists were summoned to the most

:09:57.:10:00.

extraordinary White House briefing to be told they were lying.

:10:01.:10:06.

an inauguration, period. audience to ever witness

:10:07.:10:11.

This kind of dishonesty in the media, the challenging,

:10:12.:10:15.

the bringing of our nation together, is making it more difficult.

:10:16.:10:18.

There has been a lot of talk in the media

:10:19.:10:21.

about the responsibility to hold Donald Trump accountable,

:10:22.:10:24.

and I'm here to tell you that it goes two ways.

:10:25.:10:27.

No questions were allowed. accountable as well.

:10:28.:10:35.

Earlier in the day from Donald Trump, on a visit

:10:36.:10:39.

the target different. a similar attack, though this time

:10:40.:10:46.

As you know, I have a running war with the media.

:10:47.:10:49.

They are among the most dishonest human beings on earth.

:10:50.:10:52.

with the intelligence community. sound like I had a feud

:10:53.:10:59.

But, hang on a minute, how do you reconcile the suggestion

:11:00.:11:02.

tweeted this 11 days ago? by the journalists when he

:11:03.:11:08.

He accused the intelligence services of leaking material against him,

:11:09.:11:11.

living in Nazi Germany. it seem as though we were

:11:12.:11:17.

And today, key lieutenants were intensifying their attacks.

:11:18.:11:21.

There is an obsession by the media to delegitimise this president,

:11:22.:11:24.

and we are not going to sit around and let it happen.

:11:25.:11:27.

Our press secretary gave alternative facts to that.

:11:28.:11:31.

Look, alternative facts are not facts, they are falsehoods.

:11:32.:11:35.

Part of this can be put down to Donald Trump's obsession

:11:36.:11:38.

strategy here too. but there is deliberate

:11:39.:11:44.

It seems the White House wants to undermine the conventional media

:11:45.:11:48.

so that Donald Trump is able to present his own version

:11:49.:11:51.

of reality through Twitter and Facebook without any mediation,

:11:52.:11:54.

or the establishment media? who do you believe, me

:11:55.:12:01.

And while this battle plays itself out, the satirists are making hay.

:12:02.:12:04.

This is their take on what Vladimir Putin makes of it all.

:12:05.:12:07.

Jon Sopel, BBC News, Washington. showed up to your inauguration.

The authorities in Israel have approved the construction of more

than 500 homes for settlers, in occupied East Jerusalem.

He spoke to the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by phone

France's socialist party, will be choosing between a former

Initial results from the first round of voting suggest

:13:18.:13:21.

But the eventual winner won't be the only socialist

:13:22.:13:23.

He was the liberal Prime Minister reports from Paris.

:13:24.:13:27.

He was the liberal Prime Minister who divided the Socialist Party. Now

:13:28.:13:37.

Manuel Valls wants to unite it as its candidate for president. His

:13:38.:13:44.

opponent for the run-off, Benoit Hamon is offering voters a very

:13:45.:13:50.

different brand of socialism, including a monthly payment to 750

:13:51.:13:55.

euros to every French citizen, regardless of income. Trands transby

:13:56.:14:00.

putting me ahead of the other candidate you are sending a message

:14:01.:14:08.

of hope and renewal. You want to write a new page for the left and

:14:09.:14:12.

for France. Today's result is the verdict of a party divided, and also

:14:13.:14:15.

disillusioned. Turnout was much cloeer than in the socialist primary

:14:16.:14:18.

five years ago. A sign that few here believe they are choosing the next

:14:19.:14:21.

president. There is going to be very little chance for the left wing

:14:22.:14:24.

because I think the people are so disappointed in Francois Hollande's

:14:25.:14:26.

presidency. But there is still hope. Even if we don't win in the next

:14:27.:14:30.

election, it'll set the mood for what is going to happen and what

:14:31.:14:34.

type of a position we can do. When it comes to finding a left-wing

:14:35.:14:37.

candidate for the presidency, the Socialist Party race is only part of

:14:38.:14:43.

the story. After five years of President Hollande's unpopular

:14:44.:14:45.

government, interest in this primary is low and two of the most popular

:14:46.:14:48.

left-wing politicians aren't even left-wing politicians aren't even

:14:49.:14:55.

taking part. Emmanuel Macrn left the Government

:14:56.:14:59.

last year and is drawing business crowds to his own independent

:15:00.:15:02.

president campaign. And the leader of the France's far

:15:03.:15:05.

left party is also running on his own ticket. Whoever wins the

:15:06.:15:10.

socialist nomination next Sunday will leave left-wing voters with a

:15:11.:15:14.

choice - split their votes among three different parties, or unite

:15:15.:15:17.

behind one of the candidates on offer.

:15:18.:15:21.

They might be celebrating now, but to stand any chance of keeping the

:15:22.:15:28.

far right Front Nationale from power, the socialist candidate may

:15:29.:15:34.

have to choose who they want to help, their opponents on the right,

:15:35.:15:38.

or their rivals on the left. Now, to a film that

:15:39.:15:43.

defined a generation. Trainspotting made stars

:15:44.:15:46.

of the original cast years on, it's back.

:15:47.:15:48.

and now more than 20 Trainspotting 2 has had its premiere

:15:49.:15:55.

in Edinburgh tonight, and our Entertainment Correspondent

Colin Paterson was there. After more than 20 years,

the long-awaited sequel. I really don't.

to the 1996 premier? I mean, yeah, for probably

:16:12.:16:22.

a very good reason! LAUGHTER Apart from all

:16:23.:16:32.

the fun stuff in the first movie, I think

:16:33.:16:42.

people found it relate to ball, even though

:16:43.:16:46.

it was maybe about subjects

they weren't involved in, pull in some way.

:16:50.:16:52.

to This is carrying such

:16:53.:16:59.

a cultural weight associated with it, that it feels like no event

changed the wall, haven't they? Earlier in the day, the director,

:17:27.:17:32.

Danny Boyle took us back to where it all began. We implied they were

:17:33.:17:37.

straight from Prince's Street, where they were being chased by detectives

:17:38.:17:44.

and he gets hit here. What have you been up to for 20 years? Since

:17:45.:17:50.

Trainspotting, Danny Boyle has dominated the Oscars with Slumdog

:17:51.:17:55.

Millionaire and triumphed at the Olympic opening ceremony. Since we

:17:56.:18:01.

made the first movie, people come up to you and talk about the characters

:18:02.:18:12.

like you know them. That made you think we had caped of duty to

:18:13.:18:19.

perhaps turn to it again. Here we are, more than 20 years' later. How

:18:20.:18:24.

do you make sure this is not the film equivalent of dad dancing? ?

:18:25.:18:26.

The truth is, you can't. Part of the responsibility

:18:27.:18:32.

of what we were doing is embracing people knew intimately.

:18:33.:18:36.

a sequel to a story that someone, somewhere cares.

:18:37.:18:42.
