Good afternoon.

0:00:210:00:22

The Prime Minister has come under

pressure from Leave campaigners

0:00:220:00:25

in her own party to take a hard line

with Europe over any transition

0:00:250:00:28

arrangements after Britain

leaves the EU next March.

0:00:280:00:32

Brexit negotiators are preparing

to set out the ground rules for how

0:00:320:00:35

negotiations over a transition

period will progress.

0:00:350:00:38

Our political correspondent,

Susana Mendonca, reports.

0:00:380:00:46

This report contains some flash

photography. If it felt chilly for

0:00:460:00:51

the Prime Minister in Davos, the

forecast isn't looking any warmer

0:00:510:00:54

now she's back home.

0:00:540:00:55

forecast isn't looking any warmer

now she's back home. Europe sceptic

0:00:550:00:59

backbenchers up unhappy with Theresa

May's travel on Brexit have been

0:00:590:01:02

piling on the pressure for days and

are not letting up.

This is

0:01:020:01:06

troubling on a number of counts. The

Prime Minister sent implementation

0:01:060:01:11

which would mean we'd have left and

be implementing the consequences of

0:01:110:01:15

having leaving. Currently, there's

no clear destination either in the

0:01:150:01:21

Government's mind or indeed, agreed

with the European Union and no set

0:01:210:01:24

time limit. One friend of mine said

it looked more like a plank than a

0:01:240:01:29

bridge.

Number Ten says it is

committed to delivering Brexit and

0:01:290:01:32

one of Mrs May's allies has come to

her defence.

The Conservative

0:01:320:01:37

family, left right and centre, we're

a Broadchurch, needs to come

0:01:370:01:41

together in a spirit of mutual

respect. There are difference in any

0:01:410:01:45

Broadchurch and look at what the

bigger picture's showing.

The Labour

0:01:450:01:50

Leader is showing divisions in a

party which predominately voted to

0:01:500:01:57

leave. E EU. He told Andrew Marr

Show that they wanted to be part of

0:01:570:02:08

a union after breaks:

What we asked

for and demanded in Parliament has

0:02:080:02:13

been a meaningful vote in

Parliament.

I'm on about the people

0:02:130:02:17

deciding not Parliament

What

happened with this bill, it was an

0:02:170:02:21

undemocratic power grab by the

Government. We're not asking for a

0:02:210:02:25

second referendum.

The American

president who met Mrs May in Davos

0:02:250:02:29

this week offered his own words the

wisdom on Brexit, that he'd have

0:02:290:02:34

been tougher than she has been.

I

would have negotiated it

0:02:340:02:37

differently. Had a different

attitude.

What would you have done?

0:02:370:02:42

I would have said the European Union

is not cracked up to what it's

0:02:420:02:47

supposed to be and would have taken

a tougher stand in the thing out.

0:02:470:02:50

The ball's back in the EU's court

this week. The other 27 member

0:02:500:02:55

states will prepare to set out

anywhere own position on the

0:02:550:02:59

transings period after Brexit.

0:02:590:03:01

Police are still hunting for a man

who is believed to have fled

0:03:010:03:04

the scene after a crash that

killed three teenage boys

0:03:040:03:06

in West London on Friday.

0:03:060:03:09

The three victims have been named

locally as Josh Kennedy,

0:03:090:03:11

George Wilkinson and Harry Rice.

0:03:110:03:14

They died when a car,

believed to have been

0:03:140:03:16

travelling at high speed,

crashed into a bus stop in Hayes.

0:03:160:03:23

Our correspondent Leigh

Milner is there for us.

0:03:230:03:28

What is the latest there?

Within the

past half an hour, we've been told

0:03:280:03:34

the police have released this CCTV

image of the man they're trying to

0:03:340:03:38

find in connection with the incident

who fled that night. So far, police

0:03:380:03:43

have arrested another 28-year-old

man who's currently being questioned

0:03:430:03:47

on suspicion of dangerous driving.

But the main focus by the police is

0:03:470:03:51

to find this other man. For anybody

who may have been walking or driving

0:03:510:03:55

along this road, to come forward and

talk to the police. Three boys named

0:03:550:04:02

locally as Josh Kennedy, George

Wilkinson and Harry Rice were

0:04:020:04:05

standing just by that bus stop on

Friday night when a black Audi

0:04:050:04:10

mounted the pavement and hit them at

speed. As you can see, there are

0:04:100:04:15

dozens of floral tributes and

messages left by residents, friends

0:04:150:04:19

and family. One left by George

Wilkinson's grandfather who I spoke

0:04:190:04:23

to today. In his words he told me

he's cut up. The mother's lost the

0:04:230:04:28

plot and the family is absolutely

distraught. The residents, however,

0:04:280:04:33

are angry. They've told me speeding

is an issue here. That is the whole

0:04:330:04:38

reason why this has happened. It was

just an accident waiting to happen.

0:04:380:04:42

Leigh, thank you. Leigh Milner

reporting there from Hayes.

0:04:420:04:48

More than 100 people are now

confirmed dead and 230 injured

0:04:480:04:51

in yesterday's bomb attack

in the Afghan capital, Kabul.

0:04:510:04:55

It's the worst attack

there for several months.

0:04:550:04:57

Let's go live now to our

correspondent Secunder Kermani,

0:04:570:04:59

who's in Kabul.

0:04:590:05:05

Clearly, a deteriorating security

situation there in Kabul?

Yes,

0:05:050:05:10

that's right. Today is the funerals

for the victims were held. We've

0:05:100:05:15

learnt more about how this

particular attack was carried out.

0:05:150:05:20

Officials say the militants had two

fake ambulances. One was filled with

0:05:200:05:24

explosives. The other was empty. The

empty one travelled in front so when

0:05:240:05:29

they reached a police checkpoint, it

was searched but the second one

0:05:290:05:32

wasn't. Then, the driver of that

second ambulance blew himself up

0:05:320:05:37

close to a police compound in a busy

street killing over 100 people. All

0:05:370:05:42

this comes just a week after more

than 20 people were killed by the

0:05:420:05:47

Taliban in an attack on an upmarket

hotel in Kabul. This city used to be

0:05:470:05:51

one of the most secure places in

Afghanistan. Now, for the last year

0:05:510:05:57

or so, it is feeling like one of the

most dangerous. It seems the Islamic

0:05:570:06:01

State group and Taliban are

deliberately targeting Kabul because

0:06:010:06:05

they know attacks here will capture

local and international attention,

0:06:050:06:10

spread fear and, of course,

undermine the Government.

Thank you

0:06:100:06:14

very much.

0:06:140:06:16

The Russian opposition

leader, Alexei Navalny,

0:06:170:06:19

has been arrested in Moscow.

0:06:190:06:21

He was detained by police

at a demonstration supporting

0:06:210:06:24

a boycott of the presidential

election in March,

0:06:240:06:27

which he claims will be rigged.

0:06:270:06:29

Earlier, his headquarters

were raided by police.

0:06:290:06:37

Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of the

Swedish furniture giant Ikea,

0:06:380:06:41

has died.

0:06:410:06:42

He was 91.

0:06:420:06:43

Ingvar Kamprad started the company

when he was just 17.

0:06:430:06:46

The firm said he'd passed away

peacefully at his home

0:06:460:06:48

in southern Sweden.

0:06:480:06:49

Here's our business

correspondent, Joe Lynam.

0:06:490:06:56

Ingvar Kamprad can safely be

described as a retailing genius.

0:06:560:07:00

Born in 1926 in southern Sweden he

started selling matches aged five.

0:07:000:07:05

Then seeds and then pencils. At 17,

he formed Ikea named after his own

0:07:050:07:11

initials and the area where he was

born. Now, it's probably the best

0:07:110:07:15

known furniture store in the world

with over 400 giant shops and annual

0:07:150:07:20

sales of £30 billion. Mr Kamprad was

inspired to create the idea of

0:07:200:07:26

flat-packed furniture when watching

someone remove the legs off a table

0:07:260:07:28

to fit it into a customer's car.

Ikea grew exponentially in the 1980s

0:07:280:07:34

based on the simple but untested

idea that customers would buy well

0:07:340:07:39

designed furniture and assemble it

in their own homes. One famous

0:07:390:07:43

designer #2i7ed his hat today at

what Ingvar Kamprad had achieved.

He

0:07:430:07:47

actually tapped into the taste that

every ordinary person wanted. So

0:07:470:07:51

they could get this new wave of

modernity that was coming about in

0:07:510:07:57

the 1950s and he managed to trap it

and make it available to everybody.

0:07:570:08:02

Eye key gentleman said Ingvar

Kamprad who was involved with the

0:08:020:08:05

business until recently, will be

much missed by his family and warmly

0:08:050:08:10

remembered by the company's

employees worldwide.

0:08:100:08:12

Joe Lynam looking back

at the life of Ingvar Kamprad,

0:08:120:08:14

who's died at the age of 91.

0:08:140:08:17

Tennis, and Roger Federer has

won his 20th Grand Slam title

0:08:170:08:22

with victory at the Australian Open.

0:08:220:08:24

He beat Marin Cilic

in five sets in Melbourne.

0:08:240:08:27

James Burford watch the match.

0:08:270:08:30

The warning signs were there

for all to see,

0:08:300:08:32

20 grand slams the prize

for the Swiss.

0:08:320:08:34

He's already the most successful

male singles player of all time.

0:08:340:08:37

What an arena then in which

to surpass another milestone.

0:08:370:08:42

Never one to waste time,

0:08:420:08:44

a fast start is something of

a trademark for the 36-year-old.

0:08:440:08:47

The forehand looking as strong

as it ever has done.

0:08:470:08:50

Just 24 minutes into the match

and a first set point,

0:08:500:08:53

you needn't give Roger Federer

a second chance,

0:08:530:08:55

amid the heat somehow keeping cool.

0:08:550:08:58

What is a final without a fightback?

0:08:580:09:00

Cilic, a magician in his own right.

0:09:000:09:02

After this tournament,

he becomes the third highest ranked

0:09:020:09:05

player in the world and has every

shot in the book.

0:09:050:09:09

COMMENTATOR:

That

time he was compsed.

0:09:090:09:11

So, spellbinding though

is Federer's tennis,

0:09:110:09:14

you can never truly cast him aside.

0:09:140:09:16

How often over the years have

we seen him hammering down

0:09:160:09:19

an ace to regain the lead,

0:09:190:09:20

even with the mighty Thor

watching in the crowd.

0:09:200:09:23

By no means finished,

Cilic forced a fifth and final set,

0:09:230:09:26

fighting spirit there

for all to see.

0:09:260:09:29

But this was to be Federer's day.

0:09:290:09:31

The first man to win 20 Grand Slams

and a sixth Australian Open title.

0:09:310:09:37

Of course winning is just

an absolute dream come true.

0:09:370:09:40

The fairytale continues

for us, for me.

0:09:400:09:45

After the great year I had

last year, it's incredible.

0:09:450:09:49

CHEERING

0:09:490:09:53

Emotions running high, 20 already,

0:09:530:09:56

how many more can

this great champion win?
