America will build a wall on the Mexican border, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
says President Trump, as he prepares to unveil plans | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
He's expected to set in motion his election pledge | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
to build the 2,000 mile long wall and explain how it will be paid for. | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
And it's understood he'll sign executive orders to restrict | :00:21. | :00:22. | |

despite knocking her out in Good afternoon, and welcome | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
to the BBC News at One. Donald Trump is promising a "big | :01:33. | :01:56. | |
day" on national security today, as he makes good on his | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
pre-election promises to crack down on immigration, and | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
tighten internal security. He's expected to give details of how | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
America will build its wall along He's also expected to halve | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
the number of refugees allowed into the US, | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
and tighten visa controls on visitors from a number | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
of predominantly Muslim countries. Opponents have reacted | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
with alarm to the plans, as David Willis now | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
reports from Washington. We're going to have our | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
borders nice and strong. It was the soundtrack | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
to Donald Trump's unorthodox campaign for president - | :02:31. | :02:39. | |
a call to build a wall along America's southern | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
border with Mexico. Now he seems set to press ahead | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
with measures he believes are vital to stemming the illegal flow | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
of immigrants into The President on his | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
Twitter account said simply: He's vowed to make Mexico | :02:52. | :03:04. | |
pay for it what's more, although the Mexican government | :03:05. | :03:06. | |
has refused to do so. TRANSLATION: We recognise | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
that the United States has a right to build the wall, | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
even though we don't like it. But it's another thing to get | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
a neighbouring country to pay We have said many times | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
that this is unacceptable. It's the clear position | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
of the Mexican government Later in the week, to round off | :03:27. | :03:28. | |
a busy start to his presidency, Mr Trump is expected to sign | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
executive orders, closing America's borders to refugees, | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
and limiting access to citizens from seven African and | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
Middle Eastern countries - countries the administration | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
believes export terrorism. They're mainly Muslim countries, | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
but the mantra of the Trump A country that traditionally | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
has opened its doors to immigrants is about to head | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
in the opposite direction. In a moment we'll talk | :04:00. | :04:07. | |
to our correspondent in Washington, but first let's go to | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
Will Grant in Mexico City. The big question is how this school | :04:10. | :04:24. | |
is going to be paid. -- this wall. There is a lot that Mexicans may | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
disagree with, but if there is one thing they can rally around it their | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
hatred, their complete rejection of this wall. I bet the body from the | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
top politicians to workers in car factories -- everybody, from the top | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
politicians to ordinary people up and down the country reject this | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
Friday and their clear that Mexico will not pay for it. That's what | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
they say. This is having a great impact on the popularity of the | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
President here, and wreak a Pena Nieto, who is due to meet Mr Trump | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
in Washington, DC on the 31st. It has hit him hard, he's facing the | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
lowest popularity figures of any Mexican President for two decades. | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
It is his handling of this particular issue that has hurt him | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
so hard. As far as Mexicans are concerned, they simply will not be | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
paying for this - either before or after the event, in terms of | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
remittances, some kind of control of taxes, whatever it is that Mr Trump | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
is proposing, you can be very sure that Mexicans will oppose it. Thank | :05:27. | :05:27. | |
you. And we can speak to our | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
correspondent in Washington, President Trump has promised a lot | :05:30. | :05:37. | |
more detail on national security, but he's also said he will have more | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
detail and an investigation that he has announced he will launch this | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
morning into voter fraud. It's interesting. Donald Trump won the | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
election here fair and square under the rules of the constitution, he | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
won 33 states, 306 electoral votes, but he didn't win the popular vote. | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
Hillary Clinton got 3 million more votes than him countrywide, and he | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
doesn't like it one bit. Several times he said that there has been | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
voter fraud. He is now announced this investigation. There is no | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
evidence of voter fraud on anything like that scale. I think his aides | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
will be pulling their hair out this morning because this kind of thing | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
is likely to overshadow what should be a very big day for him in terms | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
of fulfilling one of his promises - the wall. Plus those other measures | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
on immigration. We are looking at a potential temporary ban on refugees | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
coming into the United States. 85,000 came in last year. That will | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
have a huge impact worldwide. And again these huge views of | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
restrictions on seven countries from North Africa and the Middle East, | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
pending the imposition on what they are going to call in the long run | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
"Extreme vetting." That could all be subject to legal challenge, | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
particularly because they are predominantly Muslim country. The | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
lawyers could say it is discriminating on religious grounds | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
and that is unconstitutional. Thank you, both. | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
And you can get much more on these first days of the Trump presidency. | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
That's 100 Days with Katty Kay in Washington, and Christian Fraser | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
The Prime Minister has backed down in the Commons after pressure to | :07:11. | :07:25. | |
publish the UK's plans on how the UK will leave the European Union. | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
Theresa May now says the government will publish a formal White Paper | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
for scrutiny. She had been under pressure from Labour MPs and a | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
number of conservatives to produce a policy document. It will be separate | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
from the legislation MPs will vote on, which would trigger the process | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
of leaving the EU. A bizarre political correspondent. | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
-- here is our political correspondent. | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
Off to the Commons. Yesterday a Supreme Court ruled against the | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
Prime Minister, forcing her to consult parliament before starting | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
formal Brexit negotiations. That wasn't enough for some MPs who | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
complained about the lack of a clear vision of the government's plans. | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
Order, questions to the Prime Minister. | :08:12. | :08:13. | |
But today she sought to seize the initiative with an unexpected | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
announcement. I can confirm to the house that our | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
plan will be set out in a White Paper. | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
A White Paper, formerly setting up the government's approach, was a | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
central demand of the opposition. The Labour leaders struggle to | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
rethink his attack. Because we know when this like paper | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
is going to be available to us -- could we know when this White Paper | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
is going to be available to us and why it's taken so long to get a? | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
Theresa May said the timing was less important than negotiating a good | :08:45. | :08:46. | |
deal. C and others asked for a White | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
Paper. I've been clear there will be a White Paper. What I'm also clear | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
about is that the Right Honourable gentleman always ask about process. | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
About the means to the end. I miss government focusing on the outcomes. | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
With focusing... -- I and this government. Jeremy Corbyn was | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
determined that it would mean cutting taxes on big business. | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
Will she offer some clarity and some certainty and withdraw the threat to | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
destroy the social sector -- structure of this country by turning | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
us into the bargain basement she clearly threatens? | :09:25. | :09:26. | |
Tomorrow the government will publish the deal to get Parliament's | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
improvement for starting formal Brexit negotiations. Ministers are | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
confident they can get it through without significant setbacks. But | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
long and complex battles lie ahead. Let's speak to our Assistant | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
Poltiical Editor, Norman Smith. How big a climb-down is this for the | :09:39. | :09:48. | |
Prime Minister? Well, make no mistake, it is a climb-down because | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
Downing Street have repeatedly rebuffed the idea of publishing a | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
White Paper. I was speaking to some of Mrs May's people this morning and | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
they said they would not publish a White Paper because if they get MPs | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
out they will move onto demanding something else. And in the Commons | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
Mrs May gets up and says, we are going to publish. But it strikes me | :10:08. | :10:15. | |
as quite a crafty climb-down because politically this is a concession Mrs | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
May was perhaps always planning to make. Because governments almost | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
always published a White Paper before they going to negotiations | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
about other EU treaties. So she may always have intended to do this. And | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
you sense that for many conservatives, this will keep them | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
on board. Because there were a group of Tory MPs poised to side with | :10:39. | :10:46. | |
opposition politicians to vote against Mrs May and demanded White | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
Paper. So she has defused that and wrong-footed Jeremy Corbyn, who | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
lined up in the Commons to ask her a whole are critical questions about | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
the White Paper. He was left somewhat trying to find his way. So, | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
yes, it's the climb-down. But it's quite a clever climb-down. And one | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
which Mrs May must always have intended to make. One other thing to | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
say, in the last few minutes we've been told by Downing Street that the | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
bill to trigger article 50 will be published tomorrow. That is going to | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
be the next focus of possible argy-bargy over Brexit, as MPs look | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
at that and decide what sort of amendments they want to table. So | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
that is going to be the next big bust up over Brexit. | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
Thank you. A man has been arrested | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
in connection with alleged threats against the campaigner Gina Miller, | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
who led the Brexit court case The 50-year-old man was arrested in | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
London's Knightsbridge this morning. Our legal correspondent, | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
Clive Coleman, is here. What more can you tell us? Officers | :11:48. | :11:57. | |
from the Met's anti-cyber crime unit, Operation Vulcan, the rest of | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
this 50-year-old man this morning in Knightsbridge this morning on | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
suspicion of racially aggravated malicious communication. The arrest | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
is in connection with a complaint made on the 6th of November by Gina | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
Miller. She's the woman who successfully challenged the | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
government's plans to trigger article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
without an act of Parliament. She won her case at the Court yesterday. | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
It relates to threats made online and a second unrelated comment | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
believed to have been made by the same suspect in August 20 16. The | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
arrested man is currently in custody at a central London police station. | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
As part of the same investigation, we are told that the police issued | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
eight cease and desist notices to various individuals around the UK. | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
They do what they say on the tin. Those notices that they if you don't | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
stop the behaviour you're involved with, that could lead to police | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
action. Speaking to me in December following the Supreme Court hearing, | :12:56. | :12:58. | |
Gina Miller outline the general nature of the threats she has faced. | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
The sexual violence is very vile and I wouldn't like to say, | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
but anything you can probably imagine is what I've | :13:06. | :13:07. | |
Then there have been particular death threats | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
about slitting my throat, or beheading me, or whatever it is. | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
Today's arrest is separate from the arrest by officers from the same Met | :13:18. | :13:25. | |
unit in early December, during the Supreme Court hearing itself, of a | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
55-year-old man in Swindon on suspicion of the same offence. He | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
was released on bail. Clive, thank you. | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
David Cameron has called for more funding for dementia | :13:35. | :13:36. | |
research as he revealed that he is the new president of | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
The former Prime Minister says the focus on Alzheimers research | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
lags too far behind that for cancer and strokes. | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
He says he wants to "win the battle of priorities" because dementia | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
shouldn't be written off as "an inevitability of later life". | :13:48. | :13:56. | |
The laws which ban sexist dress rules at work aren't | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
being enforced properly, according to a group of MPs. | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
It follows the case of a woman who was sent home from her job | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
at an accountancy firm for not wearing high heeled shoes, | :14:06. | :14:07. | |
while the same company had no dress code for men. | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
When MPs began to investigate the story, they were inundated | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
with complaints from women with similar experiences. | :14:16. | :14:17. | |
The receptionist who wouldn't give in. Nicola Thorp refused to wear | :14:18. | :14:33. | |
heels between 2-4 inches high. She kept her flat shoes on, was sent | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
home without pay, and now MPs have taken up are caused. The report is | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
great because it doesn't just focus on high heels. This was never just | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
about a pair of shoes. It's about how women are viewed in the | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
workplace. There's so much pressure on women to not just look | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
professional, but to look attractive. | :14:54. | :14:55. | |
MPs heard from hundreds of women who said they had hurt their backs, | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
wearing crippling pain and thought being forced to wear heels was | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
sexist. Now there is a call for awareness campaigns and bigger fines | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
for employers. It's just common sense. If people | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
use their common sense. There are a lot of people wearing flat shoes | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
now, which is the fashion. That's what it should be. You shouldn't | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
have to totter around in high heels if you don't want to. Dress codes at | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
work have to comply with health and safety regulation to reduce the risk | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
of injury, and with the equality act which bans dissemination. | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
While there was likely to be differences between the way men and | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
women present themselves, what is applied should be reasonable, which | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
applies to heavy make-up, too. The government says what happened to | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
Nicola Thorp over high heels was unlawful. But MPs have found that | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
the pressure on women is widespread and most would like to see something | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
done about it. You're wearing high heels. Have you been forced? | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
Definitely not. Looking smart is subjective. Wearing flat shoes | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
doesn't necessarily make you look not smart. If I feel comfortable in | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
heels, I will. But if I don't, I don't think I have two. It should | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
not be a thing. I think there is a feeling that | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
wearing high heels is more feminine, that it is smarter. I've never been | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
told to wear heels. If you were, what would you do? I would be very, | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
very put off working for that company. The campaign over high | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
heels has highlighted the tyranny some women feel subjected to over | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
their appearance. MPs are saying more still needs to be done to make | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
sure they comes into work in the shoes they choose. | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
Donald Trump is to unveil his plans to build a wall with Mexico, | :16:40. | :16:44. | |

Liverpool playmaker Phillippe Coutinho has signed | :16:59. | :17:00. | |
a new five-year contract, worth around ?150,000 a week, making him | :17:01. | :17:03. | |

China may be one the world's biggest producers of many of the things | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
we buy, but it's also gaining a reputation as one of the world's | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
Some of the most famous high street brands are losing out | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
on billions of pounds in trade, because of counterfeiters. | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
Their merchandise is often so good, it's impossible to tell | :17:35. | :17:36. | |
the difference between what's real and what's not, as our correspondent | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
in Beijing, Robin Brant, found out when he went to speak | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
Billions and billions of these little plastic bricks have been sold | :17:43. | :17:52. | |
the world over, and now Lego is betting big on China. | :17:53. | :17:59. | |
What started out with hand-cut bricks in Denmark in 1949 is now | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
a $100 million state-of-the-art operation near Shanghai. | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
But they are not the only ones doing it. | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
Copies like this and fakes or counterfeits are prolific in China. | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
Lego is currently suing the firm behind this copycat Star Wnrs model. | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
So how easy is it to spot the difference? | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
We bought a real one and a copycat and asked the experts. | :18:30. | :18:42. | |
If you have to ask me to guess, I would say this one, maybe. | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
The truth is, they look and feel almost identical. | :18:47. | :18:56. | |
The copy's so good, in fact, that even the boss of that huge | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
I would say this is Lego and this is not. | :19:01. | :19:26. | |
Bought from Toy'R'Us yesterday, built by my daughter. | :19:27. | :19:34. | |
It is trying to be Lego, is my assessment of it. | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
Lego is not the only foreign firm investing big in China but having | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
White Evoques like this sell particulalrly well. | :19:43. | :19:50. | |
But the British firm has been powerless to stop this. | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
Tucked away on a Shanghai side street, this is a Land Wind. | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
It's similar on the inside and very, very similar on the outside, | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
This is our copycat that caught people out. | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
You can buy him and the real thing on the huge online | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
They took down thousands of links to copycat Lego products last year | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
alone, but the toy maker is still pursuing manufacturers | :20:14. | :20:15. | |
in the courts because even the boss cannot tell the difference. | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
There's been a big increase in the number | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
of people sleeping rough - with more than half the councils | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
Overall more than 4,000 people a night were sleeping rough last | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
year - a 16% increase on the year before. | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
The homelessness charity Crisis says the numbers are going up | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
From Birmingham, Seema Kotecha, sent this report. | :20:41. | :20:47. | |
As the darkness creeps in, the wind chill begins to bite. | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
Those who have nowhere to go look for shelter. | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
With outreach worker Paul, we come across Bob, who has been | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
Well, I'm used to being alone, I have done that for most | :20:58. | :21:06. | |
of my life, but sometimes I like a bit of company. | :21:07. | :21:08. | |
I did have some people who'd used to come and sit here and talk to me. | :21:09. | :21:15. | |
Yeah, I've got virtually everything I need. | :21:16. | :21:24. | |
The number of rough sleepers in England has increased | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
Local authority counts and estimates show that in autumnm 2015 | :21:27. | :21:37. | |
But counts carried out in November last year show | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
Well as we were walking by Paul just stopped to check up on this | :21:42. | :21:53. | |
He said that he was in a lot of pain. | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
He said he had actually been assaulted in the night. | :21:58. | :21:59. | |
So Paul called the paramedics and they're just making sure he's OK. | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
We think they're probably going to have to take him | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
to hospital because it seems there is something | :22:06. | :22:07. | |
We were told he was discharged later that day. | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
Some charities blame council cuts for putting more vulnerable | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
Local authority budgets have been reduced by around 20% over the past | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
six years which they say have led to fewer services. | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
Homelessness is affected by austerity, the cuts that have | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
come down from nationally, the cuts to the NHS, | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
local authorities and also those in terms of benefit caps, | :22:33. | :22:34. | |
that has a huge impact on why people are on the streets. | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
Birmingham City council are doing a lot to try to reduce this | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
by partnership work, we are working with key agencies, | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
we are doing outreach, surgeries, and we are actually listening | :22:44. | :22:45. | |
The government says by 2020 it will have invested | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
more than ?500 million on tackling homelessness. | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
But with a further squeeze on council spending expected | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
in April, there are concerns that hostels and shelters | :22:58. | :22:59. | |
Four school children, all under the age of 13, | :23:00. | :23:13. | |
have been taken to hospital after taking cocaine, | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
It happened at Broadstone Middle School at Poole in Dorset. | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
Our correspondent, Duncan Kennedy, is there. | :23:22. | :23:31. | |
A strange and potentially very disturbing incident. It happened on | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
January the 3rd although it has only just come to light. What seems to | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
have happened judging from what the police and headteacher said is that | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
the pupil turned up the school, we do not know how old they wear, with | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
white powder. Three other children then became involved, they all | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
thought it was sweets but for some reason the alarm is raised, police | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
were called to the school. Also Southwest ambulance who turn up and | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
check over the children. The children are sent to hospital as a | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
precaution, given a check over and sent home and police said there was | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
no suggestion that the children ingested anything. The police are | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
confirming that this was cocaine. We have no further details than that. | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
What the headteacher saying, is that we would like to reassure parents | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
that the incident was dealt with swiftly and in line with our | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
policies. She went on to say police enquiries are ongoing regarding the | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
incident and as such we are unable to comment any further. So far as | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
Dorset Police, all we're saying is that a 32-year-old man has been | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
arrested on drugs offences, he has been bailed to appear again in | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
February and their enquiries are continuing. No further details of | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
the moment but those for children involved are said to be safe and | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
well and did not ingest anything although it has been confirmed that | :24:56. | :24:56. | |
this was cocaine. Women MPs say they're experiencing | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
unprecedented levels Around two thirds said | :25:01. | :25:02. | |
they felt "less safe", following the murder of the Labour | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
MP, Jo Cox, last summer. Some reported death threats, | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
with more than half of those questioned by the BBC saying | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
they had had physical threats. Our political correspondent, | :25:13. | :25:15. | |
Ellie Price, has more. NEWSREEL: It gives me the greatest | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
pleasure to introduce to you the new It took a long time to get | :25:21. | :25:23. | |
women into Parliament. The first female MP to take | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
her seat, Nancy Astor, They fought and died to get | :25:31. | :25:33. | |
representation in Parliament, but now modern women MPs | :25:34. | :25:43. | |
face their own struggle. Right, so what you're looking | :25:44. | :25:49. | |
at are tweets, the abusive tweets Anne McLaughlin MP won't read | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
the abuse she receives online, which is just as well, | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
it's deeply personal. It's very tempting if you're alone | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
at night and nobody can see you if you get upset and you cry, | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
to just have a look. But it is not just hurtful | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
insults on social media, there's an even darker side of death | :26:15. | :26:21. | |
threats and violence. Jo Cox was murdered outside her | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
constituency surgery last June. Such threats are of course faced | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
by male Members of Parliament too, but two thirds of the female MPs | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
we spoke to say they have felt And well over half have | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
received a physical threat I've had death threats | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
towards myself and my family, one of which the police | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
are investigating. And one where an extremely graphic | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
image of a beheaded corpse was sent to me with the threat that, | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
you know, for the life I have young children, | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
so I take that extremely seriously. This is the room where | :26:57. | :27:05. | |
I hold my surgeries. Tulip Siddique, begrudgingly, now | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
makes sure she has security whenever Well, this building | :27:11. | :27:12. | |
is a secure building, there is a police presence outside, | :27:13. | :27:19. | |
the staff are very supportive, It's all paints rather a grim | :27:20. | :27:22. | |
picture and certainly the majority of MPs we spoke to say | :27:23. | :27:29. | |
they are concerned that hearing about this sort of abuse might put | :27:30. | :27:31. | |
off good new people, good new women, from | :27:32. | :27:34. | |
wanting to become MPs. In fact a third of those we heard | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
from said they had considered giving up their job here in Parliament | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
because of it. And the majority we heard from say, | :27:42. | :27:43. | |
despite the difficulties, the job is a privilege and well | :27:44. | :27:48. | |
worth the flak. She's the editor who persuaded | :27:49. | :27:52. | |
the Duchess of Cambridge to appear on the front of the centenary | :27:53. | :27:58. | |
edition of Vogue, but today Alexandra Shulman, has said she's | :27:59. | :28:01. | |
stepping down from the job She's been in charge | :28:02. | :28:04. | |
for a quarter of a century, but she said she now wanted | :28:05. | :28:09. | |
to "experience a different life". In the world of high fashion and the | :28:10. | :28:23. | |
catwalk show you know where you stand, by where you sit. For 25 | :28:24. | :28:31. | |
years the front row seat of British fashion has belonged to Alexandra | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
Shulman. In a world all about what is new she has been a constant | :28:36. | :28:38. | |
figure in an era in which British fashion blossomed with names like | :28:39. | :28:43. | |
Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen. I think the white... While | :28:44. | :28:53. | |
British folk has just celebrated its 100th anniversary and is still at | :28:54. | :28:57. | |
the top of the fashion prestige list, it has been a torrid time in | :28:58. | :29:02. | |
the magazine business. Online now offers alternative ways for people | :29:03. | :29:06. | |
to get their fashion fix. Always unnerving then when someone with a | :29:07. | :29:10. | |
reputation for knowing what works, goes. It has also gone is a fashion | :29:11. | :29:16. | |
editor who never really seemed like a typical fashion editor. Calm, | :29:17. | :29:18. | |
reserved, a recent documentary wondered why in a world of high | :29:19. | :29:23. | |
emotion, she seemed to be immune to the high anxiety of fashion. You do | :29:24. | :29:27. | |
not seem like someone who carries much stress with you. I know, it is | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
amazing. I've never seemed like someone who carries stress. But you | :29:33. | :29:40. | |
do. Yes. 20 years ago she had faced criticism in an era of so-called | :29:41. | :29:44. | |
heroin chic and a super skinny models and by the end she questioned | :29:45. | :29:49. | |
designers why fashion clothes had to be so tiny. And unlike other | :29:50. | :29:54. | |
editors, her personal style was not controlled by the dictates of | :29:55. | :29:57. | |
fashion. She rather stood out for being strangely normal. | :29:58. | :30:00. | |
Finally it is the last of the foggy days, it caused a few issues again | :30:01. | :30:17. | |
at the airports and on the road. Captured by one of our Weather | :30:18. | :30:21. | |
Watchers in temperature. The early morning mist has cleared to reveal | :30:22. | :30:25. | |
some sunny skies in Nottinghamshire and again we have a mixture of | :30:26. | :30:32. | |
weather today. A slice of sunshine for North and west England and | :30:33. | :30:37. | |
Wales. Northern Ireland and Scotland staying mainly cloudy. Visibility is | :30:38. | :30:41. | |
slowly picking up across eastern counties of England. When the fog | :30:42. | :30:48. | |
has gone it stays gone which is good news. A fine afternoon for Northern | :30:49. | :30:53. | |
counties of England. Pretty cloudy across Northern Ireland with some | :30:54. | :30:57. | |
showers possible. Some rain in the Western Isles but mild in the | :30:58. | :31:02. | |
Highlands with temperatures of up to 13 degrees. Overnight tonight the | :31:03. | :31:06. | |
wind picks up and we see cloudy skies spreading across much of the | :31:07. | :31:10. | |
country. With that we could have some hill fog across the tops of the | :31:11. | :31:17. | |
Pennines and some drizzle falling. Another cold night for England and | :31:18. | :31:23. | |
Wales and even some frost possible in Scotland but Northern Ireland | :31:24. | :31:26. | |
stays frost free. The coldest temperatures again in the | :31:27. | :31:32. | |
countryside, a possible minus six degrees in the north of Scotland. On | :31:33. | :31:37. | |
Thursday we begin with a lot of cloud again, thick enough for some | :31:38. | :31:43. | |
drizzle. And brightening up through the day but the brisk wind drag in | :31:44. | :31:47. | |
some cold continental air. That will make the weather feel below freezing | :31:48. | :31:54. | |
in places. Heading on into Friday, a subtle change in way the wind is | :31:55. | :31:59. | |
coming from. Starting to come up from the Bay of this guy so mild | :32:00. | :32:03. | |
direction. And eventually across western and southern areas we should | :32:04. | :32:09. | |
see temperatures rising. Some rain in the West. -- they've Biscay. Up | :32:10. | :32:14. | |
to 10 degrees towards Plymouth but still cold for Scotland and North | :32:15. | :32:18. | |
East England. Looking at the weather into the weekend, a mixed bag. On | :32:19. | :32:22. | |
Saturday staying quiet and settled with heavy showers and some of those | :32:23. | :32:27. | |
could fall as snow over the high ground in Scotland. But by Sunday | :32:28. | :32:31. | |
some slightly colder air spreading to most parts of UK but with that | :32:32. | :32:35. | |
the weather becomes a bit drier with some spells. So cloudy weekend with | :32:36. | :32:43. | |
showers by Sunday it is improving. So a cold day coming up tomorrow | :32:44. | :32:47. | |
with bitter wind coming up from the continent. | :32:48. | :32:48. | |
A reminder of our main story this lunchtime. | :32:49. | :32:50. | |
Donald Trump is to unveil his plans to build a wall with Mexico, | :32:51. | :32:53. | |
stop refugees entering the US, and tighten visa controls | :32:54. | :32:55. | |
And Theresa May has said she will publish her Brexit plan for the | :32:56. | :33:09. | |
scrutiny of Parliament | :33:10. | :33:10. |
