:02:39. > :02:42.We'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment -
:02:43. > :02:46.President-elect Donald Trump has rejected as "ridiculous" a CIA
:02:47. > :02:48.assessment that Russian hackers tried to sway the election
:02:49. > :02:53.You can switch off if you like, its the
:02:54. > :02:57.After findings of Russian interference in election.
:02:58. > :03:04.Reuters and others have reported that CIA sources have said no,
:03:05. > :03:07.it's not the CIA, it's coming from Democrats and it's coming quite
:03:08. > :03:09.soon because they will be briefed on the
:03:10. > :03:14.Trump is continuing to provide the facts that he personally chooses
:03:15. > :03:18.It'll be interesting to see if he can make decisions on that
:03:19. > :03:23.On this alone, we are heading towards an interesting rest
:03:24. > :03:26.John McCain wants an investigation into this and it's not
:03:27. > :03:32.The other thing is who Donald Trump might be making Secretary of State
:03:33. > :03:35.because he has connections to Vladimir Putin. He has no
:03:36. > :03:39.connections to anything governmental but that doesn't stop you ending up
:03:40. > :03:42.as president of the United States so why should it stop you from being
:03:43. > :03:45.Secretary of State? This hasn't been decided. There are still two other
:03:46. > :03:48.players mentioned. Bob Corker and obviously Mitt Romney as we have
:03:49. > :03:52.seen in the last couple of weeks. Final decision hasn't been made but
:03:53. > :03:57.it doesn't rather look like he is leading towards this man from Exxon
:03:58. > :04:07.Mobil. He is incredibly close to Putin and. Not the sort of parties
:04:08. > :04:18.where flight, oh, we have just met. It Internet gatherings. -- intimate
:04:19. > :04:22.gatherings. His supporters don't care, though? Eleanor I think they
:04:23. > :04:27.are happy to run with him on this but at the end of the day, he has to
:04:28. > :04:35.govern. Whether he can effectively change things and fulfil the
:04:36. > :04:43.promises that he made. His supporters won't be infinite. He
:04:44. > :04:49.needs to deliver. Some of it undermines his attacks on Hillary
:04:50. > :04:52.Clinton. For example, he gave speeches to Goldman Sachs -- she
:04:53. > :04:57.gave speeches. He seems to have as pointed quite a few people from
:04:58. > :05:03.Goldman Sachs. A warning bell might be going off even if they did end up
:05:04. > :05:16.backing him. Labour's migration muddle. Tricky situation. They have
:05:17. > :05:20.to tackle the immigration issue. Effectively what he is saying is it
:05:21. > :05:25.would be nice to have curbs on immigration and the reason is that
:05:26. > :05:34.immigration has depressed wages especially in the north where people
:05:35. > :05:38.have not seen wage growth. The probe remained consistory and CE in London
:05:39. > :05:42.is taking a more benign approach to immigration. -- pro Romain.
:05:43. > :05:54.In a way, this becomes a proxy conversation about Brexit. It is a
:05:55. > :05:58.difficult one to square. Labour has a massive problem because it's
:05:59. > :06:02.incredibly strong in London. At the last election London was the only
:06:03. > :06:11.place it could be happy with its performance was up 45 at 73 seats.
:06:12. > :06:20.London is pro- immigration, pro-Remain. The Mayor of Manchester
:06:21. > :06:31.is about to leave. We look at the shadow cabinet, there is a little
:06:32. > :06:36.group of MPs. Brexit, Jeremy Corbyn. Constituencies are all connected.
:06:37. > :06:43.There is a tiny bit of north London represented and of course, they are
:06:44. > :06:47.all in places that tend to be pro- immigration and pro-Remain. I wonder
:06:48. > :06:51.how on earth Labour is going to figure out what its case is when it
:06:52. > :06:54.has two very bits of the country that it's representing and its
:06:55. > :07:03.terrified of losing votes in the north to UKIP. Paul Nuttall is
:07:04. > :07:08.thinking about running in Labour's old seat and it doesn't know-how it
:07:09. > :07:12.affects that. Look at the Daily Telegraph. Home Secretary's strike
:07:13. > :07:19.warning ahead of three days of strikes. Southern rail. Southern
:07:20. > :07:26.Railway choose so horrendous that a colleague of mine dressed as
:07:27. > :07:30.Southern rail for hollow win. A signal person. A big Southern rail
:07:31. > :07:37.sign. It wasn't the hardest costume but yes, it drags on. Tuesday,
:07:38. > :07:40.Wednesday, Friday and I think also early in the New Year, we are going
:07:41. > :07:46.to have another strikes, potentially. This is a legitimate
:07:47. > :07:50.strike, they have had the proper ballot, gone through the right
:07:51. > :07:54.processes. They are allowed to do this will stop yes, but now tomorrow
:07:55. > :08:01.they face an appeal as to whether the union was entitled. Tomorrow
:08:02. > :08:04.they will appeal against High Court ruling which was last week which was
:08:05. > :08:08.trying to stop the union from walking out. Yes, it's absolutely
:08:09. > :08:14.legitimate but of course that's not much comfort of 2.5 million trained
:08:15. > :08:19.customers. But for the Home Secretary yes. The comments were
:08:20. > :08:24.quite bald. They are saying the union is wrong and they should go
:08:25. > :08:30.back to work or stay at work. The question of the union are saying is
:08:31. > :08:34.that this isn't safe. There really is not a lot of hard evidence out
:08:35. > :08:42.there. The rail regulator doesn't support the union's view on this. It
:08:43. > :08:50.is to be something that is indication of the way the world is
:08:51. > :08:55.going. It does point to questions we need to be dealing with in the
:08:56. > :09:00.economy. How do we increase wages, had we provide people with the
:09:01. > :09:05.living that they want in this environment? This is extreme because
:09:06. > :09:12.what they are asked to do, Theresa May and the transport Secretary,
:09:13. > :09:18.urged to take positions similar to Ronald Reagan. That seems
:09:19. > :09:23.extraordinary. Obviously, it is a call for it rather than actually
:09:24. > :09:29.doing it. Staying with the Telegraph, Britain facing energy
:09:30. > :09:37.crisis. We can't assume in the future, apparently, according to
:09:38. > :09:43.Andrew Wright, that we will have an uninterrupted power supply. He is
:09:44. > :09:50.making comments that one frequently hears in energy spheres. Not usually
:09:51. > :09:57.as stated in such a frank way from somebody from this company. As you
:09:58. > :10:03.move to set solar and wind, they don't flow all the way, they are
:10:04. > :10:07.intermittent. That raises questions about lack of availability at times.
:10:08. > :10:12.The way you would generally do that is have a backup generator,
:10:13. > :10:15.something like that. The problem is, because the backup generator is
:10:16. > :10:23.sometimes not been used, it is expensive because it is idle
:10:24. > :10:27.sometimes. If you want to get power from this backup generator, you have
:10:28. > :10:32.to pay more, that is what they are saying. I think you would expect
:10:33. > :10:38.regulation to deal with this. It will be a question to the country as
:10:39. > :10:44.to whether we want that to happen. I can't see us accepting a two tier
:10:45. > :10:49.situation where the rich have the privilege. It shows that the issue
:10:50. > :10:57.is of storing the electricity when you generate it. It's very difficult
:10:58. > :11:02.to do that. You need the turbines to be going all the time. Batteries a
:11:03. > :11:07.round solo, not just in electric cars, that might make these oil
:11:08. > :11:11.issue go away but batteries are expensive and will be for some time
:11:12. > :11:15.to come. Let's move on to the Guardian and a picture of Boris
:11:16. > :11:22.Johnson, the Foreign Secretary, he is in Saudi Arabia, having to be
:11:23. > :11:26.very diplomatic after saying a few days ago that Saudi Arabia was
:11:27. > :11:30.involved in running proxy wars against Iran and various parts of
:11:31. > :11:42.the Middle East, Yemen in particular. Tories are urging
:11:43. > :11:46.Johnson. He was applauded by quite a lot of people were saying what he
:11:47. > :11:50.said. As many people pointed out, he got into trouble for saying
:11:51. > :11:54.something that was actually true and fair, in most peoples minds, about
:11:55. > :11:59.Saudi Arabia when of he said some things in the past that have been
:12:00. > :12:06.neither fair or true. It's fascinating and also that Theresa
:12:07. > :12:11.May, sort of, she has appointed a loose cannon as Foreign Secretary
:12:12. > :12:18.and that is becoming quite obvious. Obviously he is trying to patch
:12:19. > :12:27.things up with the Saudis but is this the first gaffe of many? Well,
:12:28. > :12:34.it's not even the first... How much will she put up with? We are an
:12:35. > :12:45.important ally of them as well. They seem to have gotten over it was
:12:46. > :12:57.Jamaat they have downplayed Boris Johnson's comments. The question is
:12:58. > :12:59.how they feel about this. For example, our commercial
:13:00. > :13:04.relationships with Saudi Arabia. It might find ourselves that we are not
:13:05. > :13:16.at the floor of the hue for selling arms and so forth. -- fore. But as
:13:17. > :13:21.Boris Johnson said, he says he has a job to do. It seems to be the
:13:22. > :13:25.challenge that he faces. We saw them tried to build a bridge back with
:13:26. > :13:31.Boris today. I think on Andrew Maher, wasn't it? He sort of said
:13:32. > :13:34.people thought of slightly misinterpreted what he said. The
:13:35. > :13:42.same line comes out of Boris Johnson. Big personality. Here we
:13:43. > :13:45.are, you can go now if you have had enough of the leather trousers
:13:46. > :13:55.story. Metro has the best headline. The wronged trousers. This is
:13:56. > :14:04.Theresa May. She was wearing a very expensive para trousers, and 195
:14:05. > :14:09.pounds. -- pair of trousers. Nicky Morgan was rather disparaging about
:14:10. > :14:16.the cost of these trousers because, you know, we are supposed to be an
:14:17. > :14:19.economy that is working for everybody and there is the Prime
:14:20. > :14:24.Minister wearing trousers that cost ?195. -- 900 and I defy counts. --
:14:25. > :14:39.909. It would be nice if other women
:14:40. > :14:44.recognised it and didn't indulge in conversation. The reaction from
:14:45. > :14:49.Theresa May is telling. It seems extraordinary. Nicky Morgan was
:14:50. > :15:02.supposed to be going in for a meeting along with other pro- Remain
:15:03. > :15:09.people who have been very vocal. Now Nicky Morgan has been axed from the
:15:10. > :15:17.meeting. It is playground politics. There are bigger issues to deal
:15:18. > :15:20.with. Absolutely. With this substantive issue, the trousers
:15:21. > :15:25.themselves will stop I can understand Nicky Morgan's point stop
:15:26. > :15:31.if you dig about David Cameron. On business or international meetings
:15:32. > :15:33.would wear expensive suits but at home, would be deliberately
:15:34. > :15:40.down-to-earth. Serving journalists from cartons of milk. The Daily Mail
:15:41. > :15:57.has taken the story on. Nicky Morgan, top Tory that criticised 950
:15:58. > :16:01.pounds. She could have got it on an outlet.
:16:02. > :16:08.It is a ?950 Mulberry Bayswater handbag. You have some more to
:16:09. > :16:14.spend, more shopping to do. That is it for the papers. Thank you to Tom,
:16:15. > :16:19.thank you to Rosamund. Coming up next, the Film
