:05:02. > :05:06.in Washington, DC on the 31st. It has hit him hard, he's facing the
:05:07. > :05:09.lowest popularity figures of any Mexican President for two decades.
:05:10. > :05:14.It is his handling of this particular issue that has hurt him
:05:15. > :05:17.so hard. As far as Mexicans are concerned, they simply will not be
:05:18. > :05:22.paying for this - either before or after the event, in terms of
:05:23. > :05:26.remittances, some kind of control of taxes, whatever it is that Mr Trump
:05:27. > :05:27.is proposing, you can be very sure that Mexicans will oppose it. Thank
:05:28. > :05:29.you. And we can speak to our
:05:30. > :05:37.correspondent in Washington, President Trump has promised a lot
:05:38. > :05:41.more detail on national security, but he's also said he will have more
:05:42. > :05:46.detail and an investigation that he has announced he will launch this
:05:47. > :05:49.morning into voter fraud. It's interesting. Donald Trump won the
:05:50. > :05:54.election here fair and square under the rules of the constitution, he
:05:55. > :05:59.won 33 states, 306 electoral votes, but he didn't win the popular vote.
:06:00. > :06:03.Hillary Clinton got 3 million more votes than him countrywide, and he
:06:04. > :06:06.doesn't like it one bit. Several times he said that there has been
:06:07. > :06:11.voter fraud. He is now announced this investigation. There is no
:06:12. > :06:15.evidence of voter fraud on anything like that scale. I think his aides
:06:16. > :06:18.will be pulling their hair out this morning because this kind of thing
:06:19. > :06:24.is likely to overshadow what should be a very big day for him in terms
:06:25. > :06:29.of fulfilling one of his promises - the wall. Plus those other measures
:06:30. > :06:32.on immigration. We are looking at a potential temporary ban on refugees
:06:33. > :06:37.coming into the United States. 85,000 came in last year. That will
:06:38. > :06:40.have a huge impact worldwide. And again these huge views of
:06:41. > :06:45.restrictions on seven countries from North Africa and the Middle East,
:06:46. > :06:51.pending the imposition on what they are going to call in the long run
:06:52. > :06:54."Extreme vetting." That could all be subject to legal challenge,
:06:55. > :06:57.particularly because they are predominantly Muslim country. The
:06:58. > :07:00.lawyers could say it is discriminating on religious grounds
:07:01. > :07:04.and that is unconstitutional. Thank you, both.
:07:05. > :07:08.And you can get much more on these first days of the Trump presidency.

:07:49. > :07:54.-- here is our political correspondent.
:07:55. > :07:58.Off to the Commons. Yesterday a Supreme Court ruled against the
:07:59. > :08:00.Prime Minister, forcing her to consult parliament before starting
:08:01. > :08:05.formal Brexit negotiations. That wasn't enough for some MPs who

:08:12. > :08:13.Order, questions to the Prime Minister.
:08:14. > :08:16.But today she sought to seize the initiative with an unexpected
:08:17. > :08:19.announcement. I can confirm to the house that our
:08:20. > :08:23.plan will be set out in a White Paper.
:08:24. > :08:27.A White Paper, formerly setting up the government's approach, was a
:08:28. > :08:30.central demand of the opposition. The Labour leaders struggle to
:08:31. > :08:35.rethink his attack. Because we know when this like paper
:08:36. > :08:39.is going to be available to us -- could we know when this White Paper
:08:40. > :08:44.is going to be available to us and why it's taken so long to get a?
:08:45. > :08:46.Theresa May said the timing was less important than negotiating a good
:08:47. > :08:50.deal. C and others asked for a White
:08:51. > :08:54.Paper. I've been clear there will be a White Paper. What I'm also clear
:08:55. > :09:00.about is that the Right Honourable gentleman always ask about process.
:09:01. > :09:07.About the means to the end. I miss government focusing on the outcomes.
:09:08. > :09:11.With focusing... -- I and this government. Jeremy Corbyn was
:09:12. > :09:16.determined that it would mean cutting taxes on big business.
:09:17. > :09:19.Will she offer some clarity and some certainty and withdraw the threat to
:09:20. > :09:24.destroy the social sector -- structure of this country by turning
:09:25. > :09:26.us into the bargain basement she clearly threatens?
:09:27. > :09:31.Tomorrow the government will publish the deal to get Parliament's
:09:32. > :09:34.improvement for starting formal Brexit negotiations. Ministers are
:09:35. > :09:36.confident they can get it through without significant setbacks. But
:09:37. > :09:38.long and complex battles lie ahead. Let's speak to our Assistant
:09:39. > :09:48.Poltiical Editor, Norman Smith. How big a climb-down is this for the
:09:49. > :09:52.Prime Minister? Well, make no mistake, it is a climb-down because
:09:53. > :09:55.Downing Street have repeatedly rebuffed the idea of publishing a
:09:56. > :09:59.White Paper. I was speaking to some of Mrs May's people this morning and
:10:00. > :10:03.they said they would not publish a White Paper because if they get MPs
:10:04. > :10:07.out they will move onto demanding something else. And in the Commons
:10:08. > :10:15.Mrs May gets up and says, we are going to publish. But it strikes me
:10:16. > :10:19.as quite a crafty climb-down because politically this is a concession Mrs
:10:20. > :10:26.May was perhaps always planning to make. Because governments almost
:10:27. > :10:30.always published a White Paper before they going to negotiations
:10:31. > :10:34.about other EU treaties. So she may always have intended to do this. And
:10:35. > :10:38.you sense that for many conservatives, this will keep them
:10:39. > :10:46.on board. Because there were a group of Tory MPs poised to side with
:10:47. > :10:52.opposition politicians to vote against Mrs May and demanded White
:10:53. > :10:55.Paper. So she has defused that and wrong-footed Jeremy Corbyn, who
:10:56. > :10:59.lined up in the Commons to ask her a whole are critical questions about
:11:00. > :11:05.the White Paper. He was left somewhat trying to find his way. So,
:11:06. > :11:10.yes, it's the climb-down. But it's quite a clever climb-down. And one
:11:11. > :11:14.which Mrs May must always have intended to make. One other thing to
:11:15. > :11:20.say, in the last few minutes we've been told by Downing Street that the
:11:21. > :11:25.bill to trigger article 50 will be published tomorrow. That is going to
:11:26. > :11:29.be the next focus of possible argy-bargy over Brexit, as MPs look
:11:30. > :11:33.at that and decide what sort of amendments they want to table. So
:11:34. > :11:35.that is going to be the next big bust up over Brexit.
:11:36. > :11:37.Thank you. A man has been arrested
:11:38. > :11:40.in connection with alleged threats against the campaigner Gina Miller,
:11:41. > :11:42.who led the Brexit court case The 50-year-old man was arrested in
:11:43. > :11:47.London's Knightsbridge this morning. Our legal correspondent,
:11:48. > :11:57.Clive Coleman, is here. What more can you tell us? Officers
:11:58. > :12:03.from the Met's anti-cyber crime unit, Operation Vulcan, the rest of
:12:04. > :12:06.this 50-year-old man this morning in Knightsbridge this morning on
:12:07. > :12:10.suspicion of racially aggravated malicious communication. The arrest
:12:11. > :12:15.is in connection with a complaint made on the 6th of November by Gina
:12:16. > :12:17.Miller. She's the woman who successfully challenged the
:12:18. > :12:22.government's plans to trigger article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty
:12:23. > :12:28.without an act of Parliament. She won her case at the Court yesterday.
:12:29. > :12:30.It relates to threats made online and a second unrelated comment
:12:31. > :12:35.believed to have been made by the same suspect in August 20 16. The
:12:36. > :12:39.arrested man is currently in custody at a central London police station.
:12:40. > :12:43.As part of the same investigation, we are told that the police issued
:12:44. > :12:47.eight cease and desist notices to various individuals around the UK.
:12:48. > :12:51.They do what they say on the tin. Those notices that they if you don't
:12:52. > :12:55.stop the behaviour you're involved with, that could lead to police
:12:56. > :12:58.action. Speaking to me in December following the Supreme Court hearing,
:12:59. > :13:01.Gina Miller outline the general nature of the threats she has faced.
:13:02. > :13:05.The sexual violence is very vile and I wouldn't like to say,
:13:06. > :13:07.but anything you can probably imagine is what I've
:13:08. > :13:10.Then there have been particular death threats
:13:11. > :13:17.about slitting my throat, or beheading me, or whatever it is.
:13:18. > :13:25.Today's arrest is separate from the arrest by officers from the same Met
:13:26. > :13:28.unit in early December, during the Supreme Court hearing itself, of a
:13:29. > :13:31.55-year-old man in Swindon on suspicion of the same offence. He

:13:43. > :13:44.lags too far behind that for cancer and strokes.
:13:45. > :13:47.He says he wants to "win the battle of priorities" because dementia

:14:00. > :14:02.being enforced properly, according to a group of MPs.
:14:03. > :14:05.It follows the case of a woman who was sent home from her job
:14:06. > :14:07.at an accountancy firm for not wearing high heeled shoes,
:14:08. > :14:12.while the same company had no dress code for men.
:14:13. > :14:15.When MPs began to investigate the story, they were inundated
:14:16. > :14:17.with complaints from women with similar experiences.
:14:18. > :14:33.The receptionist who wouldn't give in. Nicola Thorp refused to wear
:14:34. > :14:38.heels between 2-4 inches high. She kept her flat shoes on, was sent
:14:39. > :14:42.home without pay, and now MPs have taken up are caused. The report is
:14:43. > :14:46.great because it doesn't just focus on high heels. This was never just
:14:47. > :14:49.about a pair of shoes. It's about how women are viewed in the
:14:50. > :14:53.workplace. There's so much pressure on women to not just look
:14:54. > :14:55.professional, but to look attractive.
:14:56. > :14:58.MPs heard from hundreds of women who said they had hurt their backs,
:14:59. > :15:03.wearing crippling pain and thought being forced to wear heels was
:15:04. > :15:06.sexist. Now there is a call for awareness campaigns and bigger fines
:15:07. > :15:10.for employers. It's just common sense. If people
:15:11. > :15:14.use their common sense. There are a lot of people wearing flat shoes
:15:15. > :15:17.now, which is the fashion. That's what it should be. You shouldn't
:15:18. > :15:22.have to totter around in high heels if you don't want to. Dress codes at
:15:23. > :15:26.work have to comply with health and safety regulation to reduce the risk
:15:27. > :15:28.of injury, and with the equality act which bans dissemination.
:15:29. > :15:33.While there was likely to be differences between the way men and
:15:34. > :15:37.women present themselves, what is applied should be reasonable, which
:15:38. > :15:41.applies to heavy make-up, too. The government says what happened to
:15:42. > :15:44.Nicola Thorp over high heels was unlawful. But MPs have found that
:15:45. > :15:49.the pressure on women is widespread and most would like to see something
:15:50. > :15:55.done about it. You're wearing high heels. Have you been forced?
:15:56. > :15:59.Definitely not. Looking smart is subjective. Wearing flat shoes
:16:00. > :16:04.doesn't necessarily make you look not smart. If I feel comfortable in
:16:05. > :16:08.heels, I will. But if I don't, I don't think I have two. It should
:16:09. > :16:12.not be a thing. I think there is a feeling that
:16:13. > :16:17.wearing high heels is more feminine, that it is smarter. I've never been
:16:18. > :16:21.told to wear heels. If you were, what would you do? I would be very,
:16:22. > :16:25.very put off working for that company. The campaign over high
:16:26. > :16:29.heels has highlighted the tyranny some women feel subjected to over
:16:30. > :16:34.their appearance. MPs are saying more still needs to be done to make

:21:27. > :21:37.Local authority counts and estimates show that in autumnm 2015

:21:58. > :21:59.He said he had actually been assaulted in the night.
:22:00. > :22:02.So Paul called the paramedics and they're just making sure he's OK.
:22:03. > :22:05.We think they're probably going to have to take him
:22:06. > :22:07.to hospital because it seems there is something

:23:32. > :23:37.A strange and potentially very disturbing incident. It happened on
:23:38. > :23:42.January the 3rd although it has only just come to light. What seems to
:23:43. > :23:45.have happened judging from what the police and headteacher said is that
:23:46. > :23:51.the pupil turned up the school, we do not know how old they wear, with
:23:52. > :23:55.white powder. Three other children then became involved, they all
:23:56. > :24:00.thought it was sweets but for some reason the alarm is raised, police
:24:01. > :24:03.were called to the school. Also Southwest ambulance who turn up and
:24:04. > :24:08.check over the children. The children are sent to hospital as a
:24:09. > :24:11.precaution, given a check over and sent home and police said there was
:24:12. > :24:17.no suggestion that the children ingested anything. The police are
:24:18. > :24:22.confirming that this was cocaine. We have no further details than that.
:24:23. > :24:26.What the headteacher saying, is that we would like to reassure parents
:24:27. > :24:30.that the incident was dealt with swiftly and in line with our
:24:31. > :24:34.policies. She went on to say police enquiries are ongoing regarding the
:24:35. > :24:39.incident and as such we are unable to comment any further. So far as
:24:40. > :24:43.Dorset Police, all we're saying is that a 32-year-old man has been
:24:44. > :24:47.arrested on drugs offences, he has been bailed to appear again in
:24:48. > :24:51.February and their enquiries are continuing. No further details of
:24:52. > :24:55.the moment but those for children involved are said to be safe and
:24:56. > :24:56.well and did not ingest anything although it has been confirmed that
:24:57. > :25:00.this was cocaine. Women MPs say they're experiencing
:25:01. > :25:02.unprecedented levels Around two thirds said
:25:03. > :25:05.they felt "less safe", following the murder of the Labour
:25:06. > :25:09.MP, Jo Cox, last summer. Some reported death threats,
:25:10. > :25:12.with more than half of those questioned by the BBC saying
:25:13. > :25:15.they had had physical threats. Our political correspondent,
:25:16. > :25:20.Ellie Price, has more. NEWSREEL: It gives me the greatest
:25:21. > :25:23.pleasure to introduce to you the new It took a long time to get
:25:24. > :25:30.women into Parliament. The first female MP to take
:25:31. > :25:33.her seat, Nancy Astor, They fought and died to get
:25:34. > :25:43.representation in Parliament, but now modern women MPs
:25:44. > :25:49.face their own struggle. Right, so what you're looking
:25:50. > :25:53.at are tweets, the abusive tweets Anne McLaughlin MP won't read
:25:54. > :25:58.the abuse she receives online, which is just as well,
:25:59. > :26:02.it's deeply personal. It's very tempting if you're alone
:26:03. > :26:10.at night and nobody can see you if you get upset and you cry,
:26:11. > :26:14.to just have a look. But it is not just hurtful
:26:15. > :26:21.insults on social media, there's an even darker side of death
:26:22. > :26:24.threats and violence. Jo Cox was murdered outside her
:26:25. > :26:29.constituency surgery last June. Such threats are of course faced
:26:30. > :26:32.by male Members of Parliament too, but two thirds of the female MPs
:26:33. > :26:35.we spoke to say they have felt And well over half have
:26:36. > :26:40.received a physical threat I've had death threats
:26:41. > :26:45.towards myself and my family, one of which the police
:26:46. > :26:48.are investigating. And one where an extremely graphic
:26:49. > :26:52.image of a beheaded corpse was sent to me with the threat that,
:26:53. > :26:56.you know, for the life I have young children,
:26:57. > :27:05.so I take that extremely seriously. This is the room where
:27:06. > :27:10.I hold my surgeries. Tulip Siddique, begrudgingly, now
:27:11. > :27:12.makes sure she has security whenever Well, this building
:27:13. > :27:19.is a secure building, there is a police presence outside,
:27:20. > :27:22.the staff are very supportive, It's all paints rather a grim
:27:23. > :27:29.picture and certainly the majority of MPs we spoke to say
:27:30. > :27:31.they are concerned that hearing about this sort of abuse might put
:27:32. > :27:34.off good new people, good new women, from
:27:35. > :27:37.wanting to become MPs. In fact a third of those we heard
:27:38. > :27:41.from said they had considered giving up their job here in Parliament
:27:42. > :27:43.because of it. And the majority we heard from say,
:27:44. > :27:48.despite the difficulties, the job is a privilege and well
:27:49. > :27:52.worth the flak. She's the editor who persuaded
:27:53. > :27:58.the Duchess of Cambridge to appear on the front of the centenary
:27:59. > :28:01.edition of Vogue, but today Alexandra Shulman, has said she's
:28:02. > :28:04.stepping down from the job She's been in charge
:28:05. > :28:09.for a quarter of a century, but she said she now wanted
:28:10. > :28:23.to "experience a different life". In the world of high fashion and the
:28:24. > :28:31.catwalk show you know where you stand, by where you sit. For 25
:28:32. > :28:35.years the front row seat of British fashion has belonged to Alexandra
:28:36. > :28:38.Shulman. In a world all about what is new she has been a constant
:28:39. > :28:43.figure in an era in which British fashion blossomed with names like
:28:44. > :28:53.Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen. I think the white... While
:28:54. > :28:57.British folk has just celebrated its 100th anniversary and is still at
:28:58. > :29:02.the top of the fashion prestige list, it has been a torrid time in
:29:03. > :29:06.the magazine business. Online now offers alternative ways for people
:29:07. > :29:10.to get their fashion fix. Always unnerving then when someone with a
:29:11. > :29:16.reputation for knowing what works, goes. It has also gone is a fashion
:29:17. > :29:18.editor who never really seemed like a typical fashion editor. Calm,
:29:19. > :29:23.reserved, a recent documentary wondered why in a world of high
:29:24. > :29:27.emotion, she seemed to be immune to the high anxiety of fashion. You do
:29:28. > :29:32.not seem like someone who carries much stress with you. I know, it is
:29:33. > :29:40.amazing. I've never seemed like someone who carries stress. But you
:29:41. > :29:44.do. Yes. 20 years ago she had faced criticism in an era of so-called
:29:45. > :29:49.heroin chic and a super skinny models and by the end she questioned
:29:50. > :29:54.designers why fashion clothes had to be so tiny. And unlike other
:29:55. > :29:57.editors, her personal style was not controlled by the dictates of
:29:58. > :30:00.fashion. She rather stood out for being strangely normal.
:30:01. > :30:17.Finally it is the last of the foggy days, it caused a few issues again
:30:18. > :30:21.at the airports and on the road. Captured by one of our Weather

:31:11. > :31:17.country. With that we could have some hill fog across the tops of the
:31:18. > :31:23.Pennines and some drizzle falling. Another cold night for England and
:31:24. > :31:26.Wales and even some frost possible in Scotland but Northern Ireland
:31:27. > :31:32.stays frost free. The coldest temperatures again in the
:31:33. > :31:37.countryside, a possible minus six degrees in the north of Scotland. On
:31:38. > :31:43.Thursday we begin with a lot of cloud again, thick enough for some
:31:44. > :31:47.drizzle. And brightening up through the day but the brisk wind drag in
:31:48. > :31:54.some cold continental air. That will make the weather feel below freezing
:31:55. > :31:59.in places. Heading on into Friday, a subtle change in way the wind is
:32:00. > :32:03.coming from. Starting to come up from the Bay of this guy so mild

:32:23. > :32:27.Saturday staying quiet and settled with heavy showers and some of those
:32:28. > :32:31.could fall as snow over the high ground in Scotland. But by Sunday
:32:32. > :32:35.some slightly colder air spreading to most parts of UK but with that
:32:36. > :32:43.the weather becomes a bit drier with some spells. So cloudy weekend with
