:00:18. > :00:20.for their annual parliament meeting - what will they do to boost Asia's

:00:21. > :00:41.Live from London, that's our top story on Friday the 4th of March.

:00:42. > :00:45.After a week of bad news from China, with millions of jobs on the line

:00:46. > :00:48.and economic gloom, its leaders are due to lay down a five-year plan

:00:49. > :00:52.for one of the world's most important economies.

:00:53. > :00:54.Upping the ante, tech giants including Google,

:00:55. > :00:59.Facebook and Microsoft are now involved in the legal battle backing

:01:00. > :01:02.Apple in its stance to not allow the FBI access to phones.

:01:03. > :01:08.Our man Rory Cellan-Jones will explain all.

:01:09. > :01:16.On. -- and markets are opening in Europe in positive territory.

:01:17. > :01:19.The forceful US banker and former boss of Barclays who resigned

:01:20. > :01:21.at the height of the financial crisis.

:01:22. > :01:24.Well, he is eyeing up the Africa business that Barclays is putting up

:01:25. > :01:28.Today we want to know, should Apple give the FBI access?

:01:29. > :01:43.China's annual parliament meeting opens in Beijing this weekend.

:01:44. > :01:46.The National People's Congress will lay down a five-year plan

:01:47. > :01:48.for Asia's largest economy, including China's economic goals.

:01:49. > :01:50.The government of Premier Li Keqiang's must engineer a giant

:01:51. > :01:52.economic shift away from manufacturing and heavy

:01:53. > :01:54.industry towards services and consumption, without derailing

:01:55. > :01:58.Most closely watched will be Beijing's economic growth target.

:01:59. > :02:00.Analysts expect between 6.5% to 7% this year, compared

:02:01. > :02:19.Last year, growth cooled to 6.9%, the slowest

:02:20. > :02:22.Beijing faces criticism for failing to tackle what are called 'zombie

:02:23. > :02:24.enteprises' - inefficient, debt-laiden, state-owned enterprises

:02:25. > :02:27.There are around 106 at national level and 150,000 local ones

:02:28. > :02:30.in sectors spanning oil, banking, telecoms and steel.

:02:31. > :02:31.Beijing has started unwinding zombie enterprises -

:02:32. > :02:34.this week, we heard 1.8 million workers would be laid off in coal

:02:35. > :02:45.The total number could be as high as 6 million over

:02:46. > :02:53.Mark Williams is with me - he's the chief Asia economist

:02:54. > :03:04.Nice to have you on the programme. Susannah was outlining some of the

:03:05. > :03:08.issues there for China. So much going on at this particular time, a

:03:09. > :03:12.week of news coming out of China, mostly negative. Give us your

:03:13. > :03:19.thoughts on what the leadership might come up with for boosting this

:03:20. > :03:22.key economy. The leadership is a delicate balancing act. There is a

:03:23. > :03:28.lot of concern over what has been happening over the past few months

:03:29. > :03:31.in China. This strong economy weakening sharply and I think they

:03:32. > :03:35.will want to provide some assurance that it is not in such bad shape,

:03:36. > :03:43.that they can support growth, but at the same time there is also concern

:03:44. > :03:48.is over the next -- concerns about the next two or three years. More

:03:49. > :03:51.lending to firms and so on, keeping firms afloat, it could actually make

:03:52. > :03:57.things worse over the next few years. How reliable has the growth

:03:58. > :04:06.been? A little earlier I spoke to the chief executive of the

:04:07. > :04:12.advertising giant WPP and he said it wasn't doing it was more than 6.9%.

:04:13. > :04:18.That's right. Many don't believe it is growing at the 7% rate that the

:04:19. > :04:22.official figures show, but believe four or 5% is more credible. A big

:04:23. > :04:26.disappointment computer what people thought China could do a few years

:04:27. > :04:31.ago but we have to be realistic and say that for an economy with China's

:04:32. > :04:35.income level and size, four or 5% would not be too bad. Given the

:04:36. > :04:40.income level and sheer level of China, shifting from an economy that

:04:41. > :04:44.has been driven and reliant on exports of goods made in China to an

:04:45. > :04:48.economy that is more mature and all about consumer demand etc, that is

:04:49. > :04:54.an enormous task. To do that in a very smooth way that does not really

:04:55. > :04:58.have any negative impact on the global economy is quite a mean feat,

:04:59. > :05:02.isn't it? It will be extremely hard. There will be bumps in the road. I

:05:03. > :05:07.think the concern from the rest of the world and also within China is

:05:08. > :05:11.that things fall off a cliff, that there is a sudden dramatic slump in

:05:12. > :05:14.China's economy. There is a middle road they can muddle through in the

:05:15. > :05:19.next few years and that is what they are trying to sort out. So for the

:05:20. > :05:24.authorities have been pretty proactive, the money in interbank

:05:25. > :05:28.lending, that kind of thing? Yes, an initiative to help banks keep

:05:29. > :05:32.lending this week. I would suspect that fiscal policy will be looking

:05:33. > :05:36.as well -- listened as well. There will be tax cuts, government

:05:37. > :05:40.spending, another way of keeping the economy afloat. Marks, we appreciate

:05:41. > :05:45.your time. Thank you for coming in and needless to say we will keep you

:05:46. > :05:46.updated with any news coming out of that parliament meeting as and when

:05:47. > :05:53.we hear it -- Mark. Google, Facebook, Microsoft

:05:54. > :05:56.and others are taking legal action in support of their rival Apple

:05:57. > :05:59.in its privacy battle with the FBI Apple is refusing to comply

:06:00. > :06:05.with a court order that it must help the FBI access encrypted data

:06:06. > :06:07.on an iPhone that belonged to Syed Farook - who with his

:06:08. > :06:10.wife killed 14 people in December in San

:06:11. > :06:14.Bernardino, California. We will have more on that story

:06:15. > :06:17.later in the programme. Let's look at the London stock exchange now.

:06:18. > :06:19.London Stock Exchange Group, which is in talks to merge

:06:20. > :06:21.with Deutsche Boerse to create a pan-European trading house,

:06:22. > :06:24.has reported a 31% rise in full-year adjusted pre-tax profit.

:06:25. > :06:27.LSE and Deutsche Boerse said last week they were in merger talks,

:06:28. > :06:29.although New York Stock Exchange owner Intercontinental Exchange has

:06:30. > :06:32.raised the prospect of a bidding war by saying it is considering making

:06:33. > :06:40.US luggage giant Samsonite says it's buying US luxury bag maker Tumi

:06:41. > :06:46.It's to pay $26.75 a share for the firm -

:06:47. > :06:48.a third more than its value on Wednesday before

:06:49. > :06:51.Analysts say the deal will give Samsonite a foothold

:06:52. > :07:00.in the lucrative Chinese high-end market.

:07:01. > :07:05.As always, lots of other stories out there so let's look at the online

:07:06. > :07:08.page to see what they are discussing. We have already

:07:09. > :07:13.mentioned some of these. Look at this picture. Quite right for

:07:14. > :07:17.February, easyJet flying through a grey sky? That is definitely what it

:07:18. > :07:21.looks like in the UK at the moment, so you're not missing much if you're

:07:22. > :07:26.not here right now. It says passenger numbers increased by 8.9%

:07:27. > :07:33.in February, but it's load capacity, how much used on flights, went down

:07:34. > :07:37.by 0.4%. Still behind Ryanair which seems to be ahead of the game when

:07:38. > :07:41.it comes to this. Significant when it comes to all these scares with

:07:42. > :07:45.terrorist attacks in many parts of the world, and it still has those

:07:46. > :07:50.figures. That is the latest from easyJet. A lot more on the Business

:07:51. > :07:53.Life page in terms of all the stories out there. But let's move on

:07:54. > :07:54.to our next story here. The world's biggest

:07:55. > :07:56.movie theatre operator - the Chinese conglomerate

:07:57. > :08:01.Dalian Wanda - is expanding even further and creating

:08:02. > :08:03.the largest US cinema chain, Lets go to our correspondent

:08:04. > :08:11.in Shanghai Robin Brant, Hello. Do you go to the cinema?

:08:12. > :08:17.LAUGHTER I do, not too regularly, having

:08:18. > :08:22.plenty of children. Let's look at the numbers on this Dalian Wanda

:08:23. > :08:29.deal. They are impressive. AMC is buying out in the States and they

:08:30. > :08:35.will confirm that with the other to give them although is theatre is,

:08:36. > :08:40.becoming a bookie myth in the movie watching business. The rationale

:08:41. > :08:45.behind the deal -- becoming huge in the movie watching business. They

:08:46. > :08:52.further transform the movie-going experience, to quote. Bigger

:08:53. > :08:56.theatres, better seats, better fits, but they will be charging you more

:08:57. > :09:00.money as well. Not just in the USA but looking at the Chinese domestic

:09:01. > :09:04.film industry, the market is expanding quicker than in the USA

:09:05. > :09:09.and if that is correct, it will be the biggest in the world by 2017.

:09:10. > :09:15.Dalian Wanda is not just looking at distribution but is possibly looking

:09:16. > :09:19.at taking a share in Lion's Gate and also MGM, who make the Bond movies.

:09:20. > :09:23.You don't have to go too far to look at the other end of the movie

:09:24. > :09:27.industry in China. You can still get dodgy DVDs from the back of most

:09:28. > :09:32.bands on streets here in Chinese cities and the major companies are

:09:33. > :09:36.not getting a slice of that action. Robin Brant in Shanghai, thank you

:09:37. > :09:39.very much. We noticed many big Hollywood should yours are also

:09:40. > :09:44.looking to China for future growth, really. Let's look at how the

:09:45. > :09:53.markets have been faring. The Dow Jones ended in positive territory,

:09:54. > :09:57.as did these two. Optimism around. Spring seems to have sprung for the

:09:58. > :10:00.financial markets after a really volatile start to the year. The

:10:01. > :10:05.uplift in oil and the knock-on effect on energy stocks have been

:10:06. > :10:06.really beneficial. As you can see, Europe opened in positive territory

:10:07. > :10:08.as well. And Michelle Fleury has

:10:09. > :10:10.the details about what's ahead on Wall Street Today -

:10:11. > :10:18.it's all about job numbers. Jobs day in America and Wall Street

:10:19. > :10:19.will be watching closely, as will the central bank.

:10:20. > :10:21.The figures are among many factors the Fed considers when deciding

:10:22. > :10:23.whether or not to raise interest rates.

:10:24. > :10:25.The Labor Department is expected to report that non-farm payrolls

:10:26. > :10:27.increased by 190,000 jobs in February.

:10:28. > :10:29.If correct, that would be an improvement on January

:10:30. > :10:31.but still a slowdown from what we saw last year.

:10:32. > :10:34.Close attention will be paid to hourly wages to see if they build

:10:35. > :10:41.Our economist Diane Swan believes, given the stage

:10:42. > :10:43.we are at in the business cycle, the US

:10:44. > :10:47.does not need to see outside gains in employment to keep the broader

:10:48. > :10:59.Meanwhile, the strong dollar is expected to weigh on the trade

:11:00. > :11:01.deficit, and the commerce department will likely

:11:02. > :11:04.show the trade deficit widened a bit to $44 billion in January

:11:05. > :11:17.That is of course the lovely Michelle Fleury in New York for us.

:11:18. > :11:21.Joining us is Jeremy Cook, Chief Economist at World First.

:11:22. > :11:29.Do you have that Friday feeling? I do. Since the start of the week it

:11:30. > :11:34.has been very positive. I think there is a lot of expectation

:11:35. > :11:39.around. Hopefully good news from the jobs in the United States today. You

:11:40. > :11:44.can't roll acts, can you? 1:30pm this afternoon! Given the global

:11:45. > :11:53.economy as a whole, a really important point -- you cannot relax.

:11:54. > :11:56.Wage growth is what we're looking at for Western economies to start

:11:57. > :11:59.pushing now. Do you think the markets this week have been fairly

:12:00. > :12:02.buoyant partly because they are anticipating good news today from

:12:03. > :12:07.the United States? We had manufacturing data out earlier in

:12:08. > :12:10.the week and that was pretty good? It was all right, not drastically

:12:11. > :12:13.good or bad. I think there was an element of people looking for good

:12:14. > :12:18.numbers today from the US jobs market but also the spectre a huge

:12:19. > :12:22.amount to come from the central banks, the Chinese, probably from

:12:23. > :12:25.the European Central Bank next week, the Japanese perhaps doing something

:12:26. > :12:28.at the end of the quarter as well. At the same time the US Federal

:12:29. > :12:33.reserve is looking to raise interest rates and this key figure today will

:12:34. > :12:37.be crucial in that decision? They say they are data dependent, they

:12:38. > :12:41.are basing their interest rates on what their data is showing. If it is

:12:42. > :12:45.showing strength, I don't think it will follow up with an interest rate

:12:46. > :12:48.rise in March, and then they will see June, then it will bounce back

:12:49. > :12:55.from December. Discussed again. It was off the cards for a while? Yes,

:12:56. > :13:00.for a long time. No back on the agenda. Definitely. Jeromy, we will

:13:01. > :13:10.see you soon. He is back in about five minutes. We will also get the

:13:11. > :13:17.latest on Apple's battle against the FBI -- Jeremy.

:13:18. > :13:19.You're with Business Live from BBC News.

:13:20. > :13:21.The number of people travelling by ferry from Dover to Calais fell

:13:22. > :13:23.last year according to the latest figures -

:13:24. > :13:25.partly due to concerns about the migration crisis,

:13:26. > :13:29.But this weekend the industry is launching a campaign

:13:30. > :13:33.Victoria Fritz is in Dover for us today and has been looking

:13:34. > :13:36.At its peak in the 90s there were 37 million passengers

:13:37. > :13:47.Since then, the numbers are down 40%.

:13:48. > :13:49.This is still the most popular route, Dover

:13:50. > :13:50.to Calais.

:13:51. > :13:53.But the numbers are significantly down, 9% in the last

:13:54. > :13:58.Let's speak to Andy Mosack, the managing editor of a travel site

:13:59. > :14:08.We have the ongoing migrant crisis, issues about security and safety

:14:09. > :14:12.We have also had long delays, tailbacks, industrial action in this

:14:13. > :14:15.Have people been put off using Dover as a port?

:14:16. > :14:26.British people are a hardy bunch, and there are all sorts of things

:14:27. > :14:29.going on, if on holiday you need to put up with all sorts

:14:30. > :14:34.Particularly you can spend hours sitting around

:14:35. > :14:39.and the ferry is a good viable option, it still has a part to play.

:14:40. > :14:43.With the onslaught of cheap airfare as well over the last ten years,

:14:44. > :14:44.how has the ferry industry contended?

:14:45. > :14:48.They have looked at it, offered a competitive price

:14:49. > :14:50.and in fact on Monday I think you can go to

:14:51. > :14:51.the Calais crossing

:14:52. > :14:55.If you still want to use the Eurotunnel it is ?180.

:14:56. > :15:01.Nowadays the ferries offer all sorts of things -

:15:02. > :15:09.Quite frankly, I think it is a bit of an interesting adventure,

:15:10. > :15:14.Yesterday, France's economy minister was suggesting that a Brexit

:15:15. > :15:16.for example would end up in passport controls

:15:17. > :15:19.being lost over France.

:15:20. > :15:22.There are concerns over what that would mean for Dover -

:15:23. > :15:25.three quarters of journeys are still to France from the UK

:15:26. > :15:28.by ferry, no doubt this port will be in the spotlight for months to come.

:15:29. > :15:39.That was the lovely Victoria. If you were wondering where she is today,

:15:40. > :15:43.that's where she is! BHS, wanting to get a better deal, really. The

:15:44. > :15:45.owners say they want substantial rent reductions. Really tough out

:15:46. > :15:49.there on the high Street. You're watching Business Live -

:15:50. > :15:51.our top story: All eyes

:15:52. > :15:53.are on China as it's leaders gather for their annual parliament meeting

:15:54. > :15:57.- the question is what they will do to boost Asia's largest but flagging

:15:58. > :15:59.economy? It's been a busy week

:16:00. > :16:04.in the tech sector. Developments in the Apple

:16:05. > :16:06.versus FBI saga, and Google's Here to talk us through these

:16:07. > :16:24.stories is our technology guru Rory Good morning. I want to start with

:16:25. > :16:30.the crash. A self drive car, but in collision with a bus? To put this in

:16:31. > :16:34.context, the Google self driving cars that have been out on the road

:16:35. > :16:38.in California for the last few years have driven more than 1 million

:16:39. > :16:41.miles. This appears to be the first collision, which was actually the

:16:42. > :16:48.fault of the car rather than other people driving into the self driving

:16:49. > :16:51.car. It is all an issue with the software. They are trying to make

:16:52. > :16:55.the software behave a bit more like a human driver, be a tiny bit more

:16:56. > :17:00.aggressive, because things have been driving into it because it has been

:17:01. > :17:06.going too slowly sometimes. What it did was it edged out to get round

:17:07. > :17:11.some sandbags and both the car and its test pilot, as it were, its test

:17:12. > :17:14.driver, because there is always somebody in the car, thought the

:17:15. > :17:19.boss would stop and it didn't. There is a wonderful line in the Google

:17:20. > :17:22.document about this saying they have no reprogrammed it to make it

:17:23. > :17:27.understand that buses may be less likely to stop than other vehicles

:17:28. > :17:32.-- now reprogrammed. I understand it was not like a fool on crash. There

:17:33. > :17:40.are no pictures of this? Yell back there will be data. -- full-on. It

:17:41. > :17:48.was more of a scarf. The Google car was going at two miles an hour while

:17:49. > :17:54.the boss was 15 mph, so not a major collision -- it was a scuff. Moving

:17:55. > :17:59.on to Apple. We asked viewers to get involved on whether they think Apple

:18:00. > :18:04.should disclose information or not. Some of you have been getting in

:18:05. > :18:09.touch with tweets saying if the courts say yes, Apple has to give

:18:10. > :18:15.over the information. That is self evident. Tech giants are lining up

:18:16. > :18:19.in support. Yes, over the last 24 hours in the run-up to the key court

:18:20. > :18:23.case between Apple and the FBI over unlocking this form they are

:18:24. > :18:32.supported documents launched by either side -- unlocking this phone.

:18:33. > :18:39.The whole tech agency which is not usually United has lined up. We have

:18:40. > :18:42.Google, Microsoft, Amazon, smaller companies as well. One key quote

:18:43. > :18:45.from Intel. We believe tech companies need to have the ability

:18:46. > :18:49.to build and design their products as needed. We cannot have the

:18:50. > :18:53.Government mandating how we build our products. This is all about

:18:54. > :18:57.Apple being asked to change the software, to actually create new

:18:58. > :19:02.software on its iPhone to make it more vulnerable to hacking.

:19:03. > :19:10.Interestingly Microsoft is not in that list? Yes, it is. And Bill

:19:11. > :19:14.Gates has other opinions, apparently? His opinions are quite

:19:15. > :19:20.complex and he felt he was misquoted last week. We should say there are

:19:21. > :19:24.also documents filed by the victims' families arguing Apple's arguments

:19:25. > :19:28.are misplaced because the government had a valid warrant. One does not

:19:29. > :19:33.enjoy the privacy to commit a crime, that is what the families say. We

:19:34. > :19:42.have also had a lot of tweets in from you, thank you very much, on

:19:43. > :19:46.this, and I am very wrong to cause I will not eat that! This is an

:19:47. > :19:51.amazing little computer, a cheap computer launched four years ago in

:19:52. > :20:01.the UK, with the aim of teaching children, sparking a revolution,

:20:02. > :20:06.teaching them the code... With that? Computers have become too easy,

:20:07. > :20:10.frankly. You press a button and new go. This is a bit more, get it. You

:20:11. > :20:24.need to plug in various things and you need to have tight lines of code

:20:25. > :20:29.-- a bit more complicated. There are no Cording lessons in schools no?

:20:30. > :20:38.Yes. All part of changing the way we think about computers -- now coding

:20:39. > :20:42.lessons in schools. 8 million of them have been schooled and not to

:20:43. > :20:47.schoolkids but quite a lot of middle-aged nostalgic hobbyists.

:20:48. > :20:54.That is why it is left on the floor and I step on it, my husband! Well,

:20:55. > :21:00.thank you for my recommendation -- your recommendation that I don't eat

:21:01. > :21:07.the chips either! And don't eat the mouse, Sally! Nice to see you, Rory,

:21:08. > :21:11.as ever. He has all the latest tech news as it happens. As we mentioned

:21:12. > :21:15.all eyes are on China's leaders who are about to meet at the National

:21:16. > :21:21.People's Congress. The head of the biggest advertising firm, WPP, has

:21:22. > :21:22.been speaking about the health of the Chinese economy.

:21:23. > :21:25.The Chinese economy is critically important.

:21:26. > :21:28.The delta from the Chinese economy, the increase in GDP

:21:29. > :21:30.in 2016 and 2015 was the largest increase of any economy

:21:31. > :21:45.China is now our third largest market, US is second and UK

:21:46. > :21:52.The continued strength of China is not just vital

:21:53. > :21:56.I have great confidence in the Chinese

:21:57. > :22:22.leadership, they have been doing this since the year WPP was founded,

:22:23. > :22:24.1985 when Deng Xioping made the famous speech which put

:22:25. > :22:26.the Chinese economy on a growth track.

:22:27. > :22:28.It is the shift to consumption from a savings economy.

:22:29. > :22:31.It is the shift to a health care safety net because that is

:22:32. > :22:41.Jeremy is back. You are interested in the programme about this

:22:42. > :22:46.disruptive bank who had crowdfunding yesterday? They started on Monday

:22:47. > :22:52.and demand was so high they crashed the website they were using, and

:22:53. > :22:58.they had to put it out once again and raised ?1 million in 86 seconds!

:22:59. > :23:01.Banking on your mobile! Reinventing the wheel of banking, moving

:23:02. > :23:06.forward. Additionally interesting because this is what has been

:23:07. > :23:09.happening in Africa, in Kenya, for example, mobile banking is all the

:23:10. > :23:12.rage and it is not be one of the reasons Barclays has pulled out of

:23:13. > :23:16.the continent because there are so many upstarts really in this sector

:23:17. > :23:22.and it is interesting. This is one of the top stories in the Financial

:23:23. > :23:26.Times today. Bob Diamond, the former chief executive of Barclays, may be

:23:27. > :23:32.eyeing up some of Barclays's old assets? Yes, Barclays released

:23:33. > :23:36.results on Monday and they were pretty poor and in the African side

:23:37. > :23:43.of things, Bob Diamond made a lot of money with Barclays through the

:23:44. > :23:50.naughties and into the financial crisis I don't not how willing

:23:51. > :23:53.Barclays will be to sell to Bob Diamond -- noughties. The explosion

:23:54. > :23:57.in banking we have seen in Asia and the legacy in Europe, it has always

:23:58. > :24:02.been that the African market is the next cherry to be picked. I spoke to

:24:03. > :24:05.on analyst in Johannesburg in Africa earlier in the week and he said he

:24:06. > :24:12.thought there would be lots of interested parties in that part of

:24:13. > :24:15.the business. Yes, regulators in South Africa will make sure they

:24:16. > :24:25.can't buy up so much of the state to make themselves big there. And they

:24:26. > :24:34.are really just getting in the curve on the UK with Mondo. Not to the

:24:35. > :24:38.same extent as... These new disrupters coming through, yes.

:24:39. > :24:41.Let's move on to newspapers in the UK and around the world looking at

:24:42. > :24:48.this story, the breakthrough in research on how to tackle cancer.

:24:49. > :24:53.Cancer's Achilles heel discovered by British scientists. The big holy

:24:54. > :24:57.grail for pharmaceutical giants all trying to get in on the act of

:24:58. > :25:01.having the key drugs, medicines or vaccines that will help with this

:25:02. > :25:05.disease. If you want a good news story for a Friday, people saying we

:25:06. > :25:11.may have found a way to cure cancer has to be pretty much top of the

:25:12. > :25:15.list. It all speaks to the whole personalised medicine we have been

:25:16. > :25:18.hearing about for years now, how certain pills are redeveloped for

:25:19. > :25:23.your own body, you are illnesses, and how they will be able to

:25:24. > :25:26.specifically target the elements you have -- your own illnesses. For the

:25:27. > :25:30.big companies with so many generic drugs out there, with what were

:25:31. > :25:35.their big money spinners, they have to find new avenues, and this

:25:36. > :25:41.medicine, as you say, is one of those? The second and third film

:25:42. > :25:46.will cost sense to make but the first one costs billions and

:25:47. > :25:53.billions of dollars -- second and third pill. Positive news. Thank you

:25:54. > :26:01.so much, Jeremypill, for coming in. Something we have not managed to

:26:02. > :26:03.mention, one of Australia's biggest banks, ANZ, is being investigated

:26:04. > :26:05.for rigging. There will be more business news

:26:06. > :26:10.throughout the day on the BBC Live webpage and on World Business Report

:26:11. > :26:15.We'll see you again tomorrow. In some parts of the British Isles

:26:16. > :26:19.Snow has been a real issue overnight and in the first part of the day.

:26:20. > :26:22.There is a mix of whether on offer today. Sunshine but rain, sleet or

:26:23. > :26:23.snow for many and I
