1097 pages -

that's the length of President

0:00:100:00:12

Trump's big year end victory.

0:00:120:00:16

Congress has just passed

a massive tax reform bill -

0:00:160:00:20

will it drive up

inequality in America?

0:00:200:00:24

Critics say the rich get rich

and the poor get poorer under

0:00:240:00:27

the Republican plan.

0:00:270:00:28

Nonsense says Mr Trump -

it's a win for everyone.

0:00:280:00:34

President Trump threatens to cut US

financial aid to countries that vote

0:00:340:00:37

against America on the issue

of Jerusalem at the UN tomorrow.

0:00:370:00:47

Doing splits in your 80s -

how simply being flexible and

0:00:470:00:50

sociable could lengthen your life.

0:00:500:00:54

Also on the programme.

0:00:540:00:57

The EU sets out a tough opening

position on phase two

0:00:570:00:59

of the Brexit negotiation.

0:00:590:01:03

The transition will end, short

of two years, in December 2020.

0:01:030:01:11

From the beginning America has been

an nation defined by its people.

0:01:110:01:19

And Disney's Donald -

0:01:190:01:20

if imitation is the sincerest form

of flattery, we wonder

0:01:200:01:22

what the president makes of this?

0:01:230:01:24

Get in touch with us using the

hashtag 'Beyond-One-Hundred-Days'.

0:01:240:01:32

Hello and welcome -

I'm Katty Kay in New York

0:01:320:01:34

and Christian Fraser is in London.

0:01:340:01:36

Donald Trump has secured

the first big legislative

0:01:360:01:37

achievement of his presidency.

0:01:370:01:39

For the first time since

Ronald Reagan was in office America

0:01:390:01:44

has overhauled its wildly

complicated tax system.

0:01:440:01:47

But it's a triumph Republicans

secured without any buy

0:01:470:01:50

in from Democrats and with a plan

that polls suggest is

0:01:500:01:53

historically unpopular.

0:01:530:01:54

Critics say this bill will increase

inequality in America

0:01:540:01:56

and expand the US debt.

0:01:560:02:00

Mr Trump says it will boost growth

and benefit everybody.

0:02:000:02:05

An historic victory

for the American people.

0:02:050:02:08

It will go through the final

passage today in the House.

0:02:080:02:14

And the congressmen

and women and the

0:02:140:02:15

Senate will be coming over -

the Republican Senate.

0:02:150:02:18

Unfortunately, the Democrats don't

like to see tax-cutting.

0:02:180:02:20

They like to see tax increases.

0:02:200:02:26

We can now speak to Democratic

Congressman Joaquin Castro who joins

0:02:260:02:28

us live from Capitol Hill.

0:02:280:02:37

Democrats voted, all of you, against

the tax reform Bill but President

0:02:370:02:42

Trump says that Democrats always

vote against tax cuts.

Well like the

0:02:420:02:49

American people, and you mentioned

the opinion polls showing the

0:02:490:02:52

American people are mostly against

this tax bill, we realised it is a

0:02:520:02:56

sham. That 83% of the benefits on

this tax cut goes to the top 1% in

0:02:560:03:03

this country. To the very wealthy.

Most of the benefits also go to

0:03:030:03:09

corporations, the corporate tax cuts

are permanent, tax cuts for

0:03:090:03:13

individual Americans are not. So for

many reasons this is just a very raw

0:03:130:03:19

deal and a bad deal for the American

people.

So under this tax plan

0:03:190:03:23

corporate tax is brought more in

line with corporate tax rates in

0:03:230:03:28

other Western countries. American

companies will bring a lot of money

0:03:280:03:32

back on shore to the US and may

invest that in jobs, capital

0:03:320:03:37

infrastructure, that would be a good

thing for American workers?

That is

0:03:370:03:41

the theory and the hope but at the

same time right now the United

0:03:410:03:46

States corporations basically are

doing better than ever before. The

0:03:460:03:51

stock market is higher than ever.

And so would question the timing and

0:03:510:03:56

the wisdom of such a steep corporate

tax cut right now. That with this

0:03:560:04:01

bill overall would add summer

between 145 trillion and $2 trillion

0:04:010:04:09

to the deficit, which is already at

$20 trillion of debt. So again it

0:04:090:04:16

was a poorly planned and poorly

executed tax bill.

Incorporated in

0:04:160:04:23

this is the repeal of the Obamacare

individual mandate. Does that mean

0:04:230:04:29

Obamacare practically speaking is

now dead?

I would not say Obamacare

0:04:290:04:34

is dead, but certainly it strikes a

blow to the Affordable Care Act but

0:04:340:04:42

most importantly a blow to the

American people because this will

0:04:420:04:45

likely lead to an increase in

premiums, individual premiums for

0:04:450:04:51

Americans. So that will hurt

everyone at every economic class.

0:04:510:04:58

Thank you very much indeed.

0:04:580:05:00

Let's get reaction

from Grover Norquist -

0:05:000:05:02

he's the President of the advocacy

group Americans for Tax

0:05:020:05:04

Reform and joins me now.

0:05:040:05:10

Is this bill going to make President

Trump richer?

Well it is going to

0:05:100:05:16

make the American economy stronger

and the good news is it cuts taxes

0:05:160:05:21

on all Americans, every income group

will see a lower tax rate. You asked

0:05:210:05:28

about the tax that Obamacare has on

people who do not want Obamacare,

0:05:280:05:32

6.6 million Americans in 2015 were

penalised, a $700 tax, penalising

0:05:320:05:41

them because they did not want to

buy Obamacare. And all of those

0:05:410:05:45

people will no longer be assaulted

by the government every year, and

0:05:450:05:50

penalised because they do not buy

Obamacare. 80% of people hit by the

0:05:500:05:56

Obamacare tax burden less than

$50,000 a year so that is one of the

0:05:560:06:00

taxes that Obama put in that hurt

politically lower-income people. We

0:06:000:06:08

have not got rid of all of them but

this we did get rid of and we also

0:06:080:06:13

double the individual and couples

standard deduction, the first

0:06:130:06:19

$24,000 and buy a couple has a 0%

tax rate. I know the Democrats say

0:06:190:06:23

it is all about millionaires but the

problem is every two weeks for the

0:06:230:06:27

rest of this year Americans will see

more money in their pay cheques and

0:06:270:06:31

they will get tired of that untruth.

Let me ask about the prospects for

0:06:310:06:37

American growth under this tax plan

because one of the big premises of

0:06:370:06:41

the tax plan is that by cutting

taxes on corporations they will

0:06:410:06:45

bring the money back to the United

States and the economic growth rate

0:06:450:06:49

will increase. But there are several

surveys suggesting that American

0:06:490:06:56

workers will only feel about 20% of

that tax cut to corporations and the

0:06:560:07:01

rest will go to shareholders in a

share buy-back and dividends to

0:07:010:07:05

their shareholders and they will not

actually investing capital or by

0:07:050:07:10

increasing wages. They will just

keep it for the corporation, for

0:07:100:07:13

their shareholders.

Well half of

Americans are in the stock market so

0:07:130:07:19

with individual retirement accounts,

pensions, even people with

0:07:190:07:26

government jobs, their pensions are

backed up by the stock market. But

0:07:260:07:29

half of Americans directly in the

stock market have direct ownership

0:07:290:07:34

through their retirement plans that

they own. And they will see every

0:07:340:07:42

month, they will get a letter saying

that your life savings have just

0:07:420:07:45

increased. And because capital is so

fluid it goes to where it is treated

0:07:450:07:52

best. Where it is not taxed as

heavily. We used to scare capital

0:07:520:07:56

away from the US, we have a largely

free economy but we will be

0:07:560:08:02

attracting a lot more investment not

just from American companies

0:08:020:08:05

overseas but from around the world.

Because if you are a dollar in the

0:08:050:08:09

US you get to keep 79 cents and not

65 as we do now.

One of the 12

0:08:090:08:15

Republicans who voted against the

bill yesterday was the chair of the

0:08:150:08:20

house Appropriations Committee, an

influential committee on the hill.

0:08:200:08:23

He said the people of New Jersey

already carry an extremely heavy tax

0:08:230:08:28

burden, they need and deserve tax

cuts and this will lead to tax

0:08:280:08:32

increases for far too many

hard-working New Jersey families.

0:08:320:08:36

How do you respond? Well he has it

backwards, a number of states have

0:08:360:08:43

abusively high income taxes, state

income taxes and property taxes. New

0:08:430:08:47

Jersey is the poster child for that

problem, New Jersey, New York City,

0:08:470:08:52

some cities in California. Well were

no longer having other states

0:08:520:08:59

subsidise your high income taxes on

property taxes. Almost all Americans

0:08:590:09:06

are covered but maybe 5% of the

population live in very high tax

0:09:060:09:12

districts. What is going to happen

is people in New Jersey said going

0:09:120:09:17

to start caring how the city spends

its money and that is why the public

0:09:170:09:22

sector unions are not happy, why the

Liberal Democrats are not happy and

0:09:220:09:27

it is incompetent governors and

corrupt mayors who are going to have

0:09:270:09:31

to change their ways or get voted

out of office.

Thank you very much.

0:09:310:09:37

This has caused a lot of

controversy, you've seen it here in

0:09:370:09:41

the US and is all centres on the

fundamental issue of income

0:09:410:09:45

inequality. This is a time when

richer people are taking a bigger

0:09:450:09:52

share of wealth and poorer people

are getting left all across the

0:09:520:09:55

western world. And there has been

criticism yesterday from the United

0:09:550:09:59

Nations saying that the American tax

bill will increase that divide

0:09:590:10:02

between rich and poor. Half of

Americans have their money in the

0:10:020:10:07

stock market as we had but have to

not. And which health does not have

0:10:070:10:12

pension plans invested in the stock

market, that is poorer Americans and

0:10:120:10:16

critics of the bill say they will

suffer underneath it.

Conservatives

0:10:160:10:22

in this country would save the rich

have never paid more tax than now.

0:10:220:10:25

But that aside how either Democrats

going to see this, see this as a win

0:10:250:10:32

win?

That is what they've said --

what they've said to me but they

0:10:320:10:37

said if Republicans had not passed

the bill it would've been a win

0:10:370:10:40

because President Trump would have

not had any major legislation but

0:10:400:10:45

because the bill is polling so badly

amongst people at the moment they

0:10:450:10:49

feel it will galvanise voters as

part of the Trump agenda and again

0:10:490:10:52

they will keep pressing for the next

eight months that this is a bill

0:10:520:10:56

that increases inequality for

middle-class families. Let's move

0:10:560:11:01

onto other news.

0:11:010:11:02

The Polish President has signed

into law judicial reforms

0:11:020:11:04

which the EU believes will undermine

the independence of

0:11:040:11:06

the country's judiciary.

0:11:070:11:08

Earlier in the day the European

Commission threatened to strip

0:11:080:11:10

Poland of its voting rights

within the EU.

0:11:100:11:12

The reforms in Poland

sparked widescale protest.

0:11:120:11:16

They hand control of the judicial

council that nominates judges

0:11:160:11:18

in Poland to the governing Law

and Justice party.

0:11:180:11:20

They also strengthen the President's

influence over the Supreme Court.

0:11:200:11:26

Catalans will go to the polls

on Thursday in regional elections.

0:11:260:11:29

The vote will determine

whether the majority

0:11:290:11:30

want to stay part of Spain -

or be independent.

0:11:300:11:33

The crisis was triggered

by an unauthorised

0:11:330:11:35

referendum in October -

after which, the Catalan government

0:11:350:11:37

declared independence.

0:11:370:11:39

Spain dissolved the regional

government and imposed direct rule.

0:11:390:11:45

The European Court of Justice

has ruled that Uber,

0:11:450:11:48

is a transport firm and should be

regulated like any

0:11:480:11:50

other taxi company.

0:11:510:11:55

The company maintains it's a digital

information provider that connects

0:11:550:11:57

passengers with drivers.

0:11:570:11:58

Experts say the judgement could have

implications for other firms

0:11:580:12:01

in what's known as the gig economy.

0:12:010:12:05

President Trump has threatened

to cut off financial aid

0:12:050:12:08

to countries that go against the US

in a United Nations

0:12:080:12:10

vote on Jerusalem.

0:12:100:12:14

The UN General Assembly will

on Thursday consider a resolution.

0:12:140:12:18

Earlier, US ambassador

to the United Nations, Nikki Haley,

0:12:180:12:20

said she will be "taking names"

of countries that vote

0:12:200:12:22

to reject Donald Trump's

recognition of Jerusalem

0:12:220:12:24

as the capital of Israel.

0:12:240:12:32

Then the president reiterated it.

0:12:320:12:36

They take hundreds of millions

of dollars and even billions

0:12:360:12:38

of dollars, and then

they vote against us.

0:12:380:12:40

Well, we're watching those votes.

0:12:400:12:41

Let them vote against us.

0:12:410:12:42

We'll save a lot.

0:12:420:12:44

We don't care.

0:12:440:12:51

24 carat Trump! The issue of

financial aid is complicated,

0:12:510:13:01

something that the president does

not like something many Republicans

0:13:010:13:04

think should be smaller. Most

financial aid goes through Congress

0:13:040:13:09

through the appropriations committee

and is not actually in the remit of

0:13:090:13:15

the President to wipe it out at the

stroke of a pen. Do you think this

0:13:150:13:19

will make suddenly people who are

going to vote against the American

0:13:190:13:23

position at the UN tomorrow say OK,

we will vote with President Trump?

0:13:230:13:28

No, he wants to be seen to be

backing down in the face of bullying

0:13:280:13:32

which essentially it is, in the face

of US strength. Certainly countries

0:13:320:13:36

in the Middle East will not back

down or stop they did not back down

0:13:360:13:41

earlier in the week in the Security

Council with the US will the vote.

0:13:410:13:46

190 odd countries tomorrow will have

the vote because the Palestinians

0:13:460:13:52

saw the US veto I want to vote in

the General Assembly. Some smaller

0:13:520:13:57

countries are supposed to bend on US

aid and maybe will think twice but

0:13:570:14:01

the bigger countries, I do not think

so.

I would not be surprised that if

0:14:010:14:06

they voted against America President

Trump would say the world does not

0:14:060:14:11

like my position, it must be the

right one.

0:14:110:14:14

The EU's chief negotiator

Michel Barnier says a transition

0:14:140:14:17

after Brexit will help both Europe

and the UK adjust to

0:14:170:14:19

the new relationship.

0:14:190:14:20

But Mr Barnier stressed

the transition should

0:14:200:14:22

be time-limited ending

in December 2020.

0:14:220:14:23

The deadline set by the commission

is shorter than the two years

0:14:230:14:26

the British Prime Minister

had initially envisaged.

0:14:260:14:29

Mr Barnier said he expected the UK

would eventually move to a deal

0:14:290:14:32

similar to that signed by Canada.

0:14:320:14:34

But not with a free trade agreement

in financial services.

0:14:340:14:37

In response Mrs May said

Mr Barnier was setting

0:14:370:14:39

out his 'opening position'.

0:14:390:14:41

Here's the UK's Political

Editor Laura Kuenssberg.

0:14:410:14:45

She made it this far.

0:14:450:14:47

The Prime Minister leaving her

house today for work.

0:14:470:14:56

Still in Number Ten

after a year when that did not

0:14:560:14:59

always looks certain.

0:14:590:15:01

Are you looking forward

to a break, Prime Minister?

0:15:010:15:03

No easy answers on how

government's biggest job,

0:15:030:15:05

how we leave the EU.

0:15:050:15:06

Can the government have the trade

deal ready before we leave?

0:15:060:15:09

That is what we are working to and

that is what I believe we can do.

0:15:090:15:13

Everybody wants to know

on what basis they are going to be

0:15:130:15:17

operating in the future.

0:15:170:15:20

There are big doubts

in Brussels about that,

0:15:200:15:25

and the Tories' expectation that it

will take about two years to make

0:15:250:15:28

the changes we need after Brexit,

a transition, and there is nothing

0:15:280:15:31

surprising about the European Union

getting its arguments in early.

0:15:310:15:41

The chief negotiator

saying today we would have

0:15:410:15:44

to stick to all of the rules

during transition and that

0:15:440:15:46

period would have to be

over by the end of 2020,

0:15:460:15:53

earlier than she believes.

0:15:540:15:58

It is not just the government,

Labour thinks two

0:15:580:16:00

years is about right.

0:16:000:16:01

We need at least two years.

0:16:010:16:06

We need clarity about what that

transition deal means and I think

0:16:060:16:09

membership of the customs union

and single market for that

0:16:090:16:12

period but there needs

to be more flexibility.

0:16:120:16:16

But don't be fooled, there is no

real outbreak of Christmas cheer

0:16:160:16:19

between the two main parties.

0:16:190:16:24

Last year the Prime Minister told

the Radio Times that

0:16:240:16:26

on Christmas Day she likes

to prepare and cook her own goose.

0:16:260:16:30

LAUGHTER.

0:16:300:16:35

In the spirit of Christmas,

can I suggest you heard that

0:16:350:16:41

in order to extract the maximum

pleasure from the messy job

0:16:410:16:43

of stuffing her goose that she names

it either Michael or Boris.

0:16:430:16:49

The applause gave the Chancellor

time to help out the Prime Minister

0:16:490:16:51

with her own punch line.

0:16:520:16:53

I think I will have

to resist the temptation

0:16:530:16:55

to call the goose Jeremy.

0:16:560:16:59

It was Prime Minister's Questions,

not the Christmas panto.

0:16:590:17:02

But for Theresa May's party

at least, the end of the year has

0:17:020:17:06

brought a little cheer.

0:17:060:17:16

Joining us now is our

favourite Brexit duo,

0:17:160:17:19

the Conservative Nigel Evans

who voted for Brexit, and the Labour

0:17:190:17:22

MP Seema Malhotra who voted Remain.

0:17:220:17:29

Good tidings to you both, lovely to

see you. As you head off into the

0:17:290:17:36

Christmas recess, honestly did you

think that the first phase would be

0:17:360:17:42

done and dusted by now and did you

expect Theresa May to be sitting on

0:17:420:17:46

the front bench today?

Well as we

approach the season of goodwill,

0:17:460:17:51

were not quite out of this place

yet, we have boats taking a slate

0:17:510:17:55

into the night tonight. And I think

there has been strong debate today

0:17:550:17:58

in Parliament. It is something that

I'm struck by today, Theresa May is

0:17:580:18:06

getting a big law more for all the

long grass she would have to deal

0:18:060:18:09

with next year because it is clear

that she's managed to kick a lot of

0:18:090:18:12

stuff into the long grass. Were not

clear what will happen with the

0:18:120:18:16

customs union, with Ireland, whether

the agreement last week, the joint

0:18:160:18:23

report, is going to be legally

binding. Because David Davis seemed

0:18:230:18:26

to change his mind after the

agreement was reached. So Theresa

0:18:260:18:30

May I think I stumbled to the end of

the year but the idea that she goes

0:18:300:18:33

out on a high is I think something

to be believed. It is not where

0:18:330:18:40

Theresa May is and I think that she

wishes she was in a very different

0:18:400:18:45

place and probably is quite grateful

that Christmas is coming.

There was

0:18:450:18:49

an audible sigh of relief in

Brussels last week when the first

0:18:490:18:54

phase was completed. But today we

heard from Michel Barnier that he

0:18:540:18:58

wants to cut short the transition to

December 2020. Can we get everything

0:18:580:19:04

done in that amount of time?

It will

give us focus at least. I'm just

0:19:040:19:08

hoping that if he wants to cut short

the transition period to the end of

0:19:080:19:15

2020, that that will mean we cut the

amount of money that we were paying

0:19:150:19:19

to stay in the single market and

Customs union. So we might save a

0:19:190:19:24

few billions of pounds. But the

problem is we still have a few

0:19:240:19:30

people, who still do not believe

we're going to leave the EU. I have

0:19:300:19:35

got to tell you I went to last month

and I bought this wonderful EU tie.

0:19:350:19:41

I do not know if you can get to see

it. It is brilliant and I bought it

0:19:410:19:46

because the gift shop in Brussels is

now selling merchandise without the

0:19:460:19:51

Union Jack on it. Replaced with the

EU flag. I thought of the gift shop

0:19:510:19:56

in Brussels can get it why can

people here are not get that we're

0:19:560:20:00

leaving the EU.

I think the reality

is, the sounds -- the transition

0:20:000:20:09

period is not something that you

leave unwanted. But it will be

0:20:090:20:13

essential for getting us into the

right place. We do not have a big

0:20:130:20:17

crash risk of a crashed to the

economy. So I think it will be a

0:20:170:20:21

challenge from Michel Barnier to

stay -- to say stop procrastinating.

0:20:210:20:27

Because the UK has handled the last

18 months through procrastination.

0:20:270:20:34

The 1922 Committee was held to might

come committee were all MPs and

0:20:340:20:39

ministers listen to the Prime

Ministers speaking in the

0:20:390:20:41

Conservative Party. And they banged

tables to the rafters when she came

0:20:410:20:46

in, she spoke about Brexit, they

said we would not get past the first

0:20:460:20:51

phase and she has achieved that. And

we will achieve a good Brexit and I

0:20:510:20:56

believe by March 2019, she left two

people banging the tables again. So

0:20:560:21:03

I think that she is going to have a

very good Christmas.

Let me jump in.

0:21:030:21:13

Last week as we know there was quite

a significant defeat for the

0:21:130:21:17

government in Parliament and Theresa

May is doing her best to roll back

0:21:170:21:21

on that. I think if he continues --

if she continues into the New Year

0:21:210:21:26

saying that Parliament should not

have a voice there will be more

0:21:260:21:29

rebellion to come.

It is Christmas, you both mentioned

0:21:290:21:32

that and my request from you is that

you both say something nice about

0:21:320:21:38

the other's position. Nigel, say

something good that you like about

0:21:380:21:43

remainders.

It reminds me of a

Christmas Carol, Silent night. I

0:21:430:21:54

find it incredibly difficult. I

guess it is because they believe, I

0:21:540:22:00

do genuinely relieved this, she does

believe the future of the UK is best

0:22:000:22:08

handcuffed to 27 other countries who

are going down the plug hole

0:22:080:22:11

quickly. I do genuinely believe that

she believes it is in the best

0:22:110:22:15

interests of the UK.

Which it is. I

could easily say something nice

0:22:150:22:23

about those who voted leave, I think

people who want things to be

0:22:230:22:28

different, who want new ideas and

change, are those who can drive

0:22:280:22:33

positive change. The difference

between us is really the reality of

0:22:330:22:36

what the change is going to bring

and I think of issues we will see

0:22:360:22:40

next year be very important. But for

something that has shaken up British

0:22:400:22:44

politics and forced us to rethink

many fundamentals, that has some

0:22:440:22:48

positives.

And next year is the last

full year will remain in the EU,

0:22:480:22:54

that has cheered me up no end.

Merry

Christmas! A fine example of how the

0:22:540:22:59

debate should be conducted!

0:22:590:23:04

At the Disney Hall of Presidents -

yes such a thing really does exist -

0:23:040:23:07

there is a new installation.

0:23:070:23:11

ANNOUNCER:

Ladies and gentlemen,

the presidents of the

0:23:110:23:14

United States of America.

0:23:140:23:18

TRUMP:

From the beginning,

America has been a nation

0:23:180:23:20

defined by its people.

0:23:210:23:27

It is of course Donald Trump,

with a message he recorded specially

0:23:270:23:30

for the attraction.

0:23:300:23:32

But - does it really look like him??

0:23:320:23:36

The response on social media is not

'unanimously' positive.

0:23:360:23:45

Some think he looks little bit like

Mrs Doubtfire. And others think

0:23:450:23:51

maybe they started with Hillary

Clinton and changed halfway through

0:23:510:23:55

and made it into Donald Trump. Like

a hybrid of them. But it reminded

0:23:550:23:59

me, last week this was the waxwork

model of Boris Johnson and again not

0:23:590:24:12

a shining example of how to

replicate our leaders. So the thing

0:24:120:24:17

is if you are ever put into the

presenters Hall of Fame, you need to

0:24:170:24:26

ring me and I will make sure the

likeness is good.

I think just

0:24:260:24:30

taught me down from it. I saw that

photograph this morning and I

0:24:300:24:36

thought it looked like Margaret

Thatcher, oddly.

Let's have a quick

0:24:360:24:40

look.

The other one. Viewers, go to

your phones, look up Donald Trump at

0:24:400:24:57

the Disney Hall Presidents. I did

not even know that they had won.

0:24:570:25:00

Only in America.

0:25:000:25:02

This is Beyond 100

Days from the BBC.

0:25:020:25:05

Coming up for viewers on the BBC

News Channel and BBC World News -

0:25:050:25:09

they fought for America,

now they're forced to live in Mexico

0:25:090:25:11

- why these veterans don't

have the same rights

0:25:110:25:14

as their US-born comrades.

0:25:140:25:16

And the president,

the prime minister -

0:25:160:25:18

and the people watching

their every move.

0:25:180:25:21

The trans-Atlantic year

that was for our North America

0:25:210:25:23

and UK Political editors.

0:25:230:25:25

That's still to come.

0:25:250:25:30

Good evening. Murky weather

continues to be a feature for the

0:25:490:25:55

next few days. There was some

brightness around today, this was

0:25:550:25:59

the scene in the Scottish Highlands.

Even hear some mist and fog to

0:25:590:26:03

contend with earlier. Misty

conditions in Cumbria courtesy of

0:26:030:26:09

some low cloud which has been coming

in from the West. We have a weather

0:26:090:26:13

front underneath this shield of

cloud, if we look at the forecast

0:26:130:26:18

through tonight you can see the

position of that front which will be

0:26:180:26:22

a focus for some spots of rain. To

the south of that particularly very

0:26:220:26:27

misty and murky conditions. To the

north some clear spells and turning

0:26:270:26:31

a bit chilly. Don towards the South

West temperatures back in double

0:26:310:26:36

digits or might long. Tomorrow the

weather front moves north and east

0:26:360:26:42

again bringing some outbreaks of

rain, mostly light and patchy. To

0:26:420:26:47

the south of that cloudy but largely

dry and to the north again the best

0:26:470:26:52

of the sunshine across the northern

half of Scotland. But a little on

0:26:520:26:56

the chilly side. Outbreaks of rain

moving across Northern Ireland into

0:26:560:27:01

parts of northern England and to the

south of that a lot of dry weather

0:27:010:27:05

but some hill fog around and some

drizzle. But double digit

0:27:050:27:11

temperatures. Into Friday similar in

many respects, against them cloudy

0:27:110:27:17

conditions but a better chance of

some brightness across north-east

0:27:170:27:22

Scotland perhaps filtering down into

north-east England at times. For the

0:27:220:27:26

most part it is mild, up to 13

degrees. On Saturday again eastern

0:27:260:27:32

Scotland best favoured for some

brightness and sunshine. That could

0:27:320:27:37

lift temperatures towards 14

degrees. Some rain into the North

0:27:370:27:41

West which will continue to fall on

Christmas Eve. Only moving South

0:27:410:27:46

East. Then once we move out of

Christmas Eve into Christmas Day is

0:27:460:27:55

all about this weather front which

brings outbreaks of rain to the

0:27:550:27:58

south of that. But to the north some

cold air is lacking and there is

0:27:580:28:03

uncertainty about the timing but it

looks like rain will move south and

0:28:030:28:08

then things start to turn colder

from the north.

0:28:080:28:11

Versus Beyond 100 Days. -- guesses.

0:30:100:30:17

Versus Beyond 100 Days. -- guesses.

The motion to reconsider is laid on

0:30:170:30:19

the table.

The US House of

Representatives gives its final

0:30:190:30:24

approval to the biggest changes to

the country's Techsystems since the

0:30:240:30:27

1980s. President Trump calls it a

historic victory for the American

0:30:270:30:34

people. Be used in the UK must go it

alone from December 2020, sooner

0:30:340:30:39

than the British government

expected. Still coming up in the

0:30:390:30:42

next half an hour.

I was born on the

4th of July, still a firecracker.

0:30:420:30:48

Keeps my brain working. Helps my

memory.

America's Sun City pommes,

0:30:480:30:55

and the secret to a longer healthily

live. Our series on longevity

0:30:550:30:59

continues. The headline says it all.

We have the contest in Virginia

0:30:590:31:08

where every single vote counts, so

much it flipped the outcome.

0:31:080:31:20

This week we have run a brilliant

series of special reports on super

0:31:210:31:28

ages, people living longer and

healthier than many others in the

0:31:280:31:31

same health group. With life

expectancy continuing to rise, it is

0:31:310:31:36

forcing scientists to ask how long

0:31:360:31:39

will be live in the future.

Anti-ageing drugs could allow people

0:31:420:31:47

to live for centuries, is that the

staff of science fiction? Our

0:31:470:31:53

medical correspondent travels to

Arizona to find out.

I like to do

0:31:530:32:01

things, I don't want to sit in the

background.

Enthusiastic, engaged,

0:32:010:32:06

optimistic. He's 101, the oldest

resident of retirement village in

0:32:060:32:17

Sun City Arizona.

You will be

missing something if you moan and

0:32:170:32:21

groan about how horrible life is.

Show me your tea.

Do you hear the

0:32:210:32:26

sound? He gets a regular checks, as

part of a study into longevity. It

0:32:260:32:33

is an issue attracting interest from

unusual quarters. In silicon Valley,

0:32:330:32:39

California, some of the biggest

names, from Google to Facebook are

0:32:390:32:43

investing hundreds of millions of

dollars into defeating the diseases

0:32:430:32:47

of ageing. So why are tech

entrepreneurs suddenly interested in

0:32:470:32:54

human health?

Silicon Valley is

driven by curiosity. The same

0:32:540:33:01

curiosity that drives a 14-year-old

to programme computers in the

0:33:010:33:03

bedroom. Tries to put in their 20s

and 30s to apply their cash and mind

0:33:030:33:08

to the problem.

It is why this

British scientist set up in Silicon

0:33:080:33:13

Valley. Aubrey is the world's

leading advocate of life extension.

0:33:130:33:20

The idea that humans can and will

live in good health for hundreds of

0:33:200:33:24

years.

There will certainly be no

limit how long people can live once

0:33:240:33:30

we bring ageing under control.

People will still die. The fact is,

0:33:300:33:35

people were live on average live a

lot longer. Unless we get hit by an

0:33:350:33:39

asteroid.

That is a minority view.

Although extending life is possible

0:33:390:33:45

in the lab. With fruit flies yeast

and worms. He gets more difficult

0:33:450:33:51

higher up the evolutionary ladder.

In simple laboratory animals we can

0:33:510:33:57

increase life span by 100%, 200,

500%. Extraordinary differences in

0:33:570:34:04

lice than. Age is plastic and simple

lab animals. More complex as they go

0:34:040:34:08

mammal. Mice, it we have been able

to increase it 20, 30%. We don't

0:34:080:34:14

know what is possible with humans.

We know exercise is a magic formula

0:34:140:34:20

that can keep us healthy longer.

There are no drugs yet to match it.

0:34:200:34:26

There is probably an upper limit

expectancy, of around 115 years. The

0:34:260:34:33

quest for immortality is still the

stuff of science fiction. Increasing

0:34:330:34:37

our health span, the number of years

we spend free of chronic diseases,

0:34:370:34:43

that really could be a reality.

Finding something you enjoy, staying

0:34:430:34:55

socially engaged are key elements of

healthy ageing. Like these Sun City

0:34:550:35:10

Poms. Many of which are in 70s and

80s.

I was born on the 4th of July,

0:35:100:35:16

still a firecracker.

Keeps my brain

going. Helps my memory.

We get out

0:35:160:35:21

there, do we need to do, enjoy.

We

cannot slow time. We can put more

0:35:210:35:27

life in early years. And hopefully

become super

0:35:270:35:40

agers. I had been wondering what

about the series has captivated

0:35:410:35:46

people. Many people telling us that

they love the series. We're not

0:35:460:35:51

there yet. We are all aware the

ageing process is starting to

0:35:510:35:55

happen, even see you. We have

parents in that age bracket. 84, 80

0:35:550:36:00

seven. You see how much activity my

mum walks every day. She is not a

0:36:000:36:05

cheerleader. She does walk every

day. Makes a huge difference. If we

0:36:050:36:11

could make those older years better

for our parents. How great would

0:36:110:36:14

that be. I have met Shirley, a force

of nature. Another firecracker. Not

0:36:140:36:23

quite doing the splits. I would not

think so. The statistic of the day.

0:36:230:36:29

One in eight of us will live to the

age of 100. A third of our life will

0:36:290:36:33

be left in later life, with old age.

The problem is, a laughter that time

0:36:330:36:39

is spent with lots of conditions,

that facts of outfits. The idea you

0:36:390:36:45

could take drugs, surgery advancing

or improving the quality of life as

0:36:450:36:52

they get older, probably while

people are talking about this. The

0:36:520:36:55

overriding message, you can do a lot

of it yourself. Get out there and

0:36:550:36:59

exercise, exercise your mind. A lot

of it comes from your mind. Big

0:36:590:37:04

economic issue. Exponentially large

part of the American health budget

0:37:040:37:09

is spent on the last years of life.

If we give the healthier, drugs mean

0:37:090:37:14

we don't need surgery, we can get to

the stage where we not

0:37:140:37:18

disproportionately putting health

costs on all people at the expense

0:37:180:37:20

of younger people. Great series.

Let's move onto other stories. The

0:37:200:37:25

range human rights envoy to Myanmar

suggest the government's decision to

0:37:250:37:31

ban her to the country suggest

something happening to the Lindren

0:37:310:37:36

Muslims. She the Roman Catholic

Archbishop of Boston knew that to

0:37:360:37:48

resign over a child abuse scandal

has died in Rome. He was accused of

0:37:480:37:54

protecting paedophile priests for

years by transferring them to new

0:37:540:37:56

parishes. He was 86. There has been

a very interesting recount in

0:37:560:38:04

Virginia. The race I went down and

follow. If you need proof that every

0:38:040:38:12

single human vote counts, take a

quick look at this. The front page

0:38:120:38:16

of the daily press. On the left

Democrats Shelley Symons, who won

0:38:160:38:24

with 11,608 for its, to 11,000 607.

That single vote in Virginia flipped

0:38:240:38:33

a house in the house of delegates

from Republican to Democrat. Leaving

0:38:330:38:38

the lower chamber evenly split. Have

you ever thought, I would rather

0:38:380:38:42

walk the dog, watch another episode

of Seinfeld. To the knitting, clean

0:38:420:38:48

the dishes, not gone out and vote?

That story is for you. Lots of

0:38:480:38:54

sowing seeds in our election this

year. Just a few hundred. One in my

0:38:540:38:58

local area. I am in the Richmond

constituency, came down to a couple

0:38:580:39:03

of hundred votes. It does count. The

extraordinary thing, he was ten

0:39:030:39:08

votes ahead until the recount. She

was one ahead. A lot of spit and

0:39:080:39:15

lick to make sure they get every

single one. What happens when she

0:39:150:39:19

goes around the town. All the time,

I was on the show with her, Shelley

0:39:190:39:24

Symons. For the next to years, every

single person will come me, saying I

0:39:240:39:31

was that one vote, the reason you

are delegates. Great story. Go out

0:39:310:39:37

and vote, it matters. More than

12,000 foreign nationals on active

0:39:370:39:40

duty in the US military. Even though

they serve the country, they're not

0:39:400:39:46

entitled to the same privileges as

other veterans. If one of them

0:39:460:39:50

commits a crime, however minor, they

are deported. Campaigners say the

0:39:500:39:55

rules need to change. The border is

the closest Richard Kemp get to

0:39:550:39:59

America. I cannot believe it, does

not make any sense.

Especially since

0:39:590:40:06

I fought to defend that country.

A

Mexican citizen, Richardson in the

0:40:060:40:13

US militarily under a programme

which allows green card holders to

0:40:130:40:17

enlist.

I spent three years during

the Vietnam War, in Vietnam. An

0:40:170:40:22

hour. Philippines. I was discharged

a year earlier under undesirable

0:40:220:40:28

conditions. It had to do my drug

addiction.

Years after he left the

0:40:280:40:34

Marines he was involved in the

robbery. After serving time he was

0:40:340:40:38

deported back to Mexico.

I

understand, we are convicted of a

0:40:380:40:42

crime. Serving in the US military in

combat should count for something.

0:40:420:40:46

Home for Richard is Tijuana. He has

found a group of people who share

0:40:460:40:52

his story. More than 200 foreign

veterans have been deported from the

0:40:520:40:57

US.

Last, first.

We call this

affectionately the Funkasaurus

0:40:570:41:07

resource Centre, shelter, housing

for deported US military veterans.

0:41:070:41:13

Hector runs the centre. Former

paratrooper, he spent time in prison

0:41:130:41:18

after shooting at a car.

Obviously,

I thought's life, her mother has

0:41:180:41:27

multiple sclerosis. I am not doing

anything for them. It is hurtful.

0:41:270:41:34

Many people think committing a crime

is enough to be fought foreign

0:41:340:41:37

veterans.

I will take responsibility

for the fact I got myself in this

0:41:370:41:41

situation where I went to prison. I

do think it is right to do for

0:41:410:41:47

people who served in the military.

Just because we made mistakes

0:41:470:41:50

commission not find the rest of our

lives.

Hector is taking his case of

0:41:500:41:54

the federal courts. He says he's not

giving up its fight to return to

0:41:540:41:59

America, the country he risked his

life for. The actress Heather North,

0:41:590:42:07

better known as the voice of Daphne

in the Scooby Doo cartoons in the

0:42:070:42:11

1970s and 80s has died. She was 74.

What's that?

That must be the

0:42:110:42:17

creeper.

For years, she voiced the

intrepid teenage detective, who kept

0:42:170:42:24

getting herself into trouble, only

to be rescued by her friends and

0:42:240:42:27

their dog. This is Beyond 100 Days.

Still to come, they watched

0:42:270:42:37

presidents and prime ministers

probably more than we do. The year

0:42:370:42:40

that was for our political editors,

and looking ahead to the year to

0:42:400:42:45

come.

0:42:450:42:46

Here in England homelessness is a

national crisis according to a group

0:42:510:42:54

of MPs who say efforts to tackle it

or an abject failure. More than 9000

0:42:540:43:00

people are sleeping rough 78,000

families in temporary accommodation.

0:43:000:43:04

The government says it is providing

more than £1 billion to reduce

0:43:040:43:09

homelessness.

0:43:090:43:19

Just go through this.

0:43:220:43:23

When his dad was made homeless,

seven-year-old Billy lived part-time

0:43:230:43:26

with him in one room

of this emergency shelter.

0:43:260:43:28

Billy had his own bed,

his dad used a folding bed.

0:43:280:43:31

So how does it work,

he has to fold it out every night?

0:43:310:43:34

Yes, just like this.

0:43:340:43:35

It is tough enough for an adult to

be here, but to be here with a child

0:43:350:43:39

and remain strong is difficult.

0:43:390:43:40

He should not be here.

0:43:400:43:41

He shouldn't be here at all.

0:43:410:43:43

I'm doing what I can do

to be a parent to him,

0:43:430:43:46

under these circumstances.

0:43:460:43:47

This report says the problem

of homelessness has been growing

0:43:470:43:49

for years, with the number of people

in short-term accommodation

0:43:490:43:51

up by 60% since 2010.

0:43:510:43:53

The MPs said there is

an unacceptable shortage

0:43:530:43:54

of realistic housing options.

0:43:550:43:56

There are estimated to be 9000

people sleeping rough

0:43:560:43:58

on the streets every night,

more than double the number in 2011.

0:43:580:44:01

There are a further 78,000 families

living in temporary accommodation,

0:44:010:44:03

often of a poor standard and that

includes 120,000 children.

0:44:030:44:05

The committee has described

the situation as shameful.

0:44:050:44:07

It has called on the government

to focus on the supply

0:44:070:44:10

and affordability of decent housing.

0:44:100:44:20

You need to stop being

complacent about this.

0:44:240:44:34

Labour said this report showed

that the Conservatives had caused

0:44:340:44:37

the crisis of rapidly rising

homelessness,

0:44:370:44:38

but had no plans to fix it.

0:44:380:44:40

Billy and his dad have now found

somewhere permanent to live.

0:44:400:44:42

But there are many others

who won't have a place

0:44:420:44:45

they can call home over Christmas.

0:44:450:44:47

Andy Moore, BBC News.

0:44:470:44:57

You're watching Beyond 100 Days. We

have been taken you look back at

0:44:590:45:05

2017 in the company about BBC

editors. Today the tone of political

0:45:050:45:12

correspondent Jelinek editor, Laura

Greensburg. And our North American

0:45:120:45:20

editor John Sobel.

The realities

with General Kelly in charge still

0:45:200:45:28

be a change how this place operates,

disciplined, United and working.

0:45:280:45:41

Only time will tell. In the meantime

the late-night comedians are making

0:45:410:45:46

hay.

This is the first time Theresa

May will meet European leaders in

0:45:460:45:50

this building. The last time the

Prime Minister will come here before

0:45:500:45:54

she pushes the bottom on Brexit.

Just as she started to grapple with

0:45:540:45:58

all the complexities in Brussels.

The scale of the potential

0:45:580:46:02

implications of leaving the EU are

coming Everclear at home.

They are

0:46:020:46:10

to of the hardest working people in

news. We were standing in the room

0:46:100:46:22

on Thursday when the Prime Minister

arrived in Brussels. I said on the

0:46:220:46:29

show on Thursday night, I thought

she looked a different person. There

0:46:290:46:30

was some relief, a lot of

confidence. She looked as if she was

0:46:300:46:32

really in her stride in this

negotiation.

A couple months ago

0:46:320:46:36

someone inside government crucial to

Theresa May said to me I think we

0:46:360:46:37

are going to be weak and stable.

That is our advantage. That was

0:46:370:46:42

after the disastrous election

disappointment for the Tories. Her

0:46:420:46:48

statement was strong and stable, she

lost the majority. A personal

0:46:480:46:51

humiliation. Why are the biggest

miscalculations and political

0:46:510:46:57

history. We joked about week and

stable. I said you were pushing it

0:46:570:47:01

if you are looking for that kind of

silver lining. When that comes to

0:47:010:47:05

the close this year, we can stable

does not look too bad. She has

0:47:050:47:10

managed to close off phase one of

the Brexit negotiations. In a couple

0:47:100:47:13

of hours' time she will have got the

first piece of Brexit legislation

0:47:130:47:17

through the House of Commons. There

was banging on the tables, and

0:47:170:47:22

cheering this afternoon. She ends

this political year in a place lots

0:47:220:47:26

political supporters fought there

was no way she would get back to

0:47:260:47:30

this kind of place. We can stable

feels like not a bad Christmas

0:47:300:47:34

present for Theresa May.

If someone

went to President Trump, we think

0:47:340:47:41

you well we can stable, he may throw

the window. That is a total

0:47:410:47:46

anathema. Strong and unpredictable

fevered love.

Yeah, we can stable,

0:47:460:47:53

he would pay for. The Twitter storm

that would erupt on the East Coast

0:47:530:48:02

at 6am on the morning. He seems to

thrive on the chaos Theresa May

0:48:020:48:08

would absolutely detest. She once

calm and serenity and order. Trying

0:48:080:48:14

to achieve that. Donald Trump seems

to love the fact that everything is

0:48:140:48:18

a fight. If you are finding two days

when he's not in the headlines, you

0:48:180:48:25

find he will manufacture a fight.

The Tweet of the former chief of

0:48:250:48:29

staff, chaos seem to rain. He said

I'm going to award this White House

0:48:290:48:35

for a Tony award for most drama. Not

best drama, just most drama. It

0:48:350:48:40

seemed to be absolutely bang on,

what we have witnessed. A dizzying

0:48:400:48:45

array of stories that come and go.

Some out of nowhere. Out of a Tweet.

0:48:450:48:52

You are thinking to days looking

quite. Here comes Donald Trump, and

0:48:520:48:55

everything changes.

One heck of the

year. Laura, I have not had a chance

0:48:550:49:02

to ask you this.

That sounds

terrifying.

What do Brits makers

0:49:020:49:14

Theresa May fuzz my handling of

Donald Trump?

I think on balance,

0:49:140:49:19

something seems pretty negative. Of

course, around the time of the first

0:49:190:49:23

white House visit, anxiety about how

it would play. A lot of logic, he

0:49:230:49:28

was the most powerful man in the

Western world in politics. It made

0:49:280:49:32

sense to cosy up to the US. As we

have seen previously, the idea and

0:49:320:49:38

the optics of British prime

ministers cosying up to any

0:49:380:49:41

president has to be handled with

care. It can be very toxic. Throw in

0:49:410:49:46

the characteristics for many Brits

are Donald Trump, it is an anathema.

0:49:460:49:53

A lot of the focus on whether he

will come on a visit. If he does,

0:49:530:49:58

will he get the bells and whistles.

Will he get the golden carriage down

0:49:580:50:01

Whitehall? Number ten doing anything

to distance themselves from this

0:50:010:50:07

idea. Kind of like you invite this

person you have just met over the

0:50:070:50:13

Sunday lunch. You get to know them a

bit better, and have it better. You

0:50:130:50:19

say, sure we'll do it sometime. No

problem, maybe after Easter. You're

0:50:190:50:25

busy, so I? We will fit it in. On

vital things, like decision on

0:50:250:50:32

Jerusalem, Theresa May did make

clear her displeasure. She did raise

0:50:320:50:36

it in a phone call with Donald

Trump. Quite a long time after the

0:50:360:50:40

decision. What we have seen is a

change in her initial reluctance to

0:50:400:50:46

go anywhere near something that

might sound by criticism of him. At

0:50:460:50:49

the close of the year, much more on

the front that saying I don't like

0:50:490:50:53

that. You are still a friend, I

don't like that. We are quite used

0:50:530:50:58

to the cynicism in the UK about the

so-called special relationship. Many

0:50:580:51:02

British voters are not comfortable

with the optics, but the fact of the

0:51:020:51:07

relationship.

Remind me never to try

and schedule lunch review! The rebus

0:51:070:51:12

will be too bad. Can we pause for a

second, and played the moment when

0:51:120:51:18

you met Donald, John?

Where are you

from?

The BBC. Another good line.

0:51:180:51:30

Impartial, free and fair.

Just like

CNN. We can go back and forth. Only

0:51:300:51:39

travel ban, was that a good example?

I know who you are, just wait.

When

0:51:390:51:53

he was talking about another beauty,

why did you instinctively think he

0:51:530:51:55

was talking about the BBC, might be

talking about you. I think I heard

0:51:550:52:00

you say earlier, not being pretty.

Anything that. He has got there. Got

0:52:000:52:07

his tax reform, repealing the

individual mandate on Obama care.

0:52:070:52:16

Many people say, he has done it in

an unorthodox way.

I don't nephew

0:52:160:52:30

played football, and those people

used to come off the pitch after 90

0:52:300:52:33

minutes, and they did not have any

modern-day kit. Absolutely spotless.

0:52:330:52:37

He's covered in mud, grazes, and

bruises from the year that was

0:52:370:52:42

passed. A lot of people said he

would fail, to a lot of people who

0:52:420:52:46

voted for him to become the

president. They look at the fact the

0:52:460:52:49

stock market is soaring. The tax

reform measures, the Supreme Court,

0:52:490:52:55

the change in regulation. They are

starting to think OK, not a pretty

0:52:550:53:00

picture. He is delivering on what he

said he would do for us. That means

0:53:000:53:06

people who start making calculations

saying Trump's has peaked. His

0:53:060:53:12

approval ratings are rock bottom.

The core base. The core constituency

0:53:120:53:18

that voted for him last November are

still holding up surprisingly well.

0:53:180:53:24

Laura, I suspect the British leader

would never call a BBC correspondent

0:53:240:53:29

another beauty. Whichever party they

are from.

I don't know, these days.

0:53:290:53:36

These days it is tricky to do. I

want to ask you a question I am

0:53:360:53:41

often asked by people in Washington.

Whether Theresa May will be Prime

0:53:410:53:46

Minister of Britain this time next

year?

Listening to John from a funny

0:53:460:53:51

thing in a way to finger leaders are

telling you have common. They are

0:53:510:53:57

both governing in times of

volatility, that they have that

0:53:570:54:01

ability to keep going in different

ways. After the election, the former

0:54:010:54:06

Chancellor George Osborne said she

was a dead woman walking. One of her

0:54:060:54:11

colleagues said privately she was

wounded antelope. Suggesting there

0:54:110:54:15

was no way she could get one. There

was a coup attempt against after the

0:54:150:54:20

party speech. I'm sure you'll Ewers

would remember if they have the

0:54:200:54:26

awkward displeasure of watching some

of the clips. Yet here we are, she

0:54:260:54:30

is still in charge. Not necessarily

with enormous amounts of political

0:54:300:54:33

authority. Doing the most important

thing, showing up in Klingon. The

0:54:330:54:39

reason she's still there is the same

reason she stayed on the 9th of

0:54:390:54:43

June. The fundamental here is that

the Tory party do not agree on who

0:54:430:54:49

the best person would be to take

over from her. Not just that, they

0:54:490:54:53

don't agree on the details of how

they should approach the future

0:54:530:54:56

relationship with the European

Union. And therefore they look at

0:54:560:55:00

Theresa May, and they think right

now, in this difficult position, she

0:55:000:55:05

is probably just about the only

person who can kind of keep it all

0:55:050:55:09

together. Does that mean soaring

visions of the future? Political

0:55:090:55:14

inspiration, the kind of leader

people would follow to the end of

0:55:140:55:17

the world. It does not. But for now,

it does mean she seems to be in a

0:55:170:55:22

relatively safe position. Of course,

things being volatile. It could

0:55:220:55:27

change, and change very fast. As she

gets to the end of the year, does

0:55:270:55:32

not seem like she's going anywhere.

Thank you very much. That is my

0:55:320:55:39

favourite phrase of the whole

programme. We can stable. -- week

0:55:390:55:46

and stable. Coming up next,

0:55:460:55:51
