0:00:11 > 0:00:12This is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty
0:00:12 > 0:00:14and Charlie Stayt.
0:00:14 > 0:00:15Donald Trump lashes out
0:00:15 > 0:00:17at Theresa May in a row over anti-Muslim videos.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19The Prime Minister criticised the US President
0:00:19 > 0:00:22for sharing a series of posts by the far-right group
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Britain First.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28But last night, Mr Trump tweeted that she should instead be focussd
0:00:28 > 0:00:33on tackling terrorism.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Good morning.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43It's Thursday 30 November.
0:00:43 > 0:00:49Also this morning:
0:00:49 > 0:00:51A warning that children with special educational needs aren't getting
0:00:51 > 0:00:54the support they need once they hit 18.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56We'll hear from parents desperately concerned about what the future
0:00:56 > 0:01:02holds for their families.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07I once said many years to go -- years ago to the social worker when
0:01:07 > 0:01:11I was small, if something happens to me, put in the grave with me and I
0:01:11 > 0:01:13still feel that way.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15A breakthrough in migraine prevention.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Doctors say a new treatment could significantly cut the number
0:01:17 > 0:01:25and severity of attacks.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Kelloggs will be cutting the sugar in some of its sweeter cereals,
0:01:29 > 0:01:30but not all of them.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33So later on, I'll be talking to company's boss about why they've
0:01:33 > 0:01:34taken this decision now.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38How about this?Wayne Rooney with a hat-trick capped with a wonder goal

0:01:42 > 0:01:47later.
0:01:47 > 0:01:48-- Allardyce.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52And Matt has the weather.
0:01:52 > 0:01:59A bit of snow in Scotland the Andrews Day. More details coming up.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01--4 St Andrews Day.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Good morning.
0:02:04 > 0:02:05First, our main story.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08President Trump has told Theresa May that she should pay more attention
0:02:08 > 0:02:11to tackling terrorism in the UK, rather than criticising him.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13The message was delivered in a tweet last night
0:02:13 > 0:02:16after Downing Street criticised the US President for sharing
0:02:16 > 0:02:18anti-Muslim videos posted by a British far-right group
0:02:18 > 0:02:19on social media.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22The row has placed more pressure on the Prime Minister to cancel
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Mr Trump's state visit to the UK next year.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Our North America Correspondent Laura Bicker has more.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29They may have held hands once but this so-called special
0:02:29 > 0:02:32relationship is now being tested by a series of presidential tweets.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35First, from the account of a far right anti-Muslim group called
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Britain First, Donald Trump retweeted three inflammatory
0:02:37 > 0:02:40videos to his 43 million followers.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44The first claimed incorrectly to show a Muslim migrant attacking
0:02:44 > 0:02:46a man on crutches.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49When challenged, the White House said the videos might not be
0:02:49 > 0:02:51real but the threat was.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Both Theresa May and a lot of other world leaders across this country,
0:02:54 > 0:02:57I mean, across the world, know that these are real threats
0:02:57 > 0:03:02that we have to talk about.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05I think Europe has seen that a lot firsthand and something
0:03:05 > 0:03:09the President wants to continue to talk about and continue to make
0:03:09 > 0:03:10sure that we're dealing with.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Theresa May is on a tour of the Middle East but her official
0:03:13 > 0:03:16spokesman said the President had been wrong to share the posts.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19It was that condemnation which prompted a Twitter outburst
0:03:19 > 0:03:23from Donald Trump's account.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26He told Theresa May not to focus on him but to focus
0:03:26 > 0:03:28on the destructive radical Islamic terrorism taking
0:03:28 > 0:03:32place within big United Kingdom.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34"We are doing just fine," he said.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37The President has caused diplomatic headaches for the UK several times
0:03:37 > 0:03:38already this year.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40From backing Nigel Farage as an ambassador to Washington,
0:03:40 > 0:03:42to attacking the London Mayor Sadiq Khan,
0:03:42 > 0:03:47all from his favourite social media platform.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50It may be a show of strength for his supporters but it may also
0:03:50 > 0:03:51weaken his position abroad.
0:03:51 > 0:04:11Laura Bicker, BBC News, Washington.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14We will be talking shortly to Alex Forsyth who is travelling with
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Theresa May.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Plans to get an extra one million disabled people into work will be
0:04:20 > 0:04:26published by the government today.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30Probably a new banana. Hannah is testing face recognition gadgets
0:04:30 > 0:04:35which could help at work. She lost her sight five years ago and is now
0:04:35 > 0:04:40registered blind. During that time, she found it hard to get a job.I
0:04:40 > 0:04:45left uni with a first-class degree in law and its pink turned down the
0:04:45 > 0:04:48basic admen rolls and I had significant experience. Some of
0:04:48 > 0:04:53them, I might not have got the job anyway but sum it is clear from the
0:04:53 > 0:04:56questions they are asking, it was because of a disability.The
0:04:56 > 0:05:00employment gap between disabled and nondisabled people has not
0:05:00 > 0:05:04significantly changed for years despite a pledge back in 2015 to
0:05:04 > 0:05:09halve it. Today the government has published a plan to see 1 million
0:05:09 > 0:05:13more disabled people in work over the next ten years.We are making
0:05:13 > 0:05:17progress. We have 600,000 more people in work than we did four
0:05:17 > 0:05:21years ago but what we want to do is continue to work with employers to
0:05:21 > 0:05:25continue to exploit the opportunities of new technology and
0:05:25 > 0:05:29to keep testing and learning to find out what works, what are the things
0:05:29 > 0:05:33that can actually make a difference? So that more disabled people can
0:05:33 > 0:05:38fulfil their potential and get a good job.Today's announcement also
0:05:38 > 0:05:42includes measures to allow access to personalised support for those with
0:05:42 > 0:05:45mental health issues and an increase in a variety of healthcare
0:05:45 > 0:05:49professionals who are able to issue fitness to work notices but with
0:05:49 > 0:05:52employment rates for those with learning to do -- disabilities at
0:05:52 > 0:05:59around 6%, the process could be said to be too slow.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02We'll be talking to the Work and Pensions Secretary David Gauke
0:06:02 > 0:06:03about this just after 0800.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Investigations are underway following the death
0:06:05 > 0:06:08of a Bosnian Croat war criminal, who drank poison in court
0:06:08 > 0:06:10after he was convicted of crimes against humanity.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Just moments after United Nations judges
0:06:11 > 0:06:14upheld his 20-year sentence at the International Criminal Tribunal
0:06:14 > 0:06:19in the Hague, Slobodan Praljak said he rejected
0:06:19 > 0:06:21the verdict and drank what he said was poison.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24The 72-year old died in hospital and the UN announced the courtroom
0:06:24 > 0:06:28was now "a crime scene".
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Two clinical trials have shown a new approach to preventing
0:06:31 > 0:06:33migraine can reduce the number of attacks, and their severity.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Both trials used antibodies that shield the nervous system
0:06:36 > 0:06:37from the headaches.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Here's more from our health and science correspondent James
0:06:39 > 0:06:45Gallagher.
0:06:45 > 0:06:50Imogen Smiths about it -- images started Haddin migrans two years
0:06:50 > 0:06:54ago. She was having a tax every week and forced to take a year out of
0:06:54 > 0:06:58college.It was really scary certainly, when they happened, I
0:06:58 > 0:07:02didn't know what they were because I thought a migraine was just a
0:07:02 > 0:07:06headache so we had to keep looking into more serious things.One in
0:07:06 > 0:07:11seven people in the UK live with the agony of migraine. Scientists have
0:07:11 > 0:07:15now developed new treatments which target a chemical in the nervous
0:07:15 > 0:07:18system which develop -- which stop a migraine developing. Two trials
0:07:18 > 0:07:24published. One, 955 patients a monthly injection of antibodies.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28Before the trial, they were having migraines eight days a month on
0:07:28 > 0:07:32average. Around 50% of patients were able to cut their migraines and
0:07:32 > 0:07:37harp. For drug companies are developing similar treatments and
0:07:37 > 0:07:43scientists say a new therapy could give patients their life back.These
0:07:43 > 0:07:48treatments are the first migraine specific preventive is ever. For the
0:07:48 > 0:07:52most substantial neurological cause of disability on the planet. It has
0:07:52 > 0:07:58a huge advance for all of us.-- it is. Imogen's migraines are under
0:07:58 > 0:08:02control and she is now studying to be a nurse but currently available
0:08:02 > 0:08:06drugs don't work for everyone and can cause side-effects. New options
0:08:06 > 0:08:09for people living with migraine are desperately needed.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Litter levels recorded on the UK's beaches this year are 10 per cent
0:08:12 > 0:08:16higher than they were a year ago, and 20 per cent of everything found
0:08:16 > 0:08:18came from food and drink rubbish.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20The Marine Conservation Society is now calling
0:08:20 > 0:08:23on the Government to put a levy on single-use items that are handed
0:08:23 > 0:08:27over over for free in their millions when we're eating and drinking out.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29This would mean taxing items such as straws,
0:08:29 > 0:08:33cups, lids, stirrers and cutlery.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Those are the main stories this morning. John Isner adjusting its
0:08:36 > 0:08:48leaves. We got a golfer you? I love a good goal. It gets the thumbs up
0:08:48 > 0:08:56from the potential new Everton manager, Sam Allardyce. His third to
0:08:56 > 0:09:04the hat-trick. That is the peak. I will show you.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06The Sam Allardyce era will begin at Everton later
0:09:06 > 0:09:07and it
0:09:07 > 0:09:10got off to the perfect start with what Wayne Rooney scored
0:09:10 > 0:09:14the best goal of his career, rounded off a hattrick in a four nil
0:09:14 > 0:09:17win over West Ham, in front of the man who will be named Everton
0:09:17 > 0:09:18manager today.
0:09:18 > 0:09:24-- 4-0.
0:09:24 > 0:09:2796 minutes on the clock, being held to a 1-all draw
0:09:27 > 0:09:29with Southampton, Raheem Sterling scored this winning goal.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32As top of the table Manchester City made it a club-record
0:09:32 > 0:09:3412th-successive Premier League win.
0:09:34 > 0:09:47Fair to say he and his manager enjoyed it.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50After arriving in New Zealand, Ben Stokes has signed to play
0:09:50 > 0:09:52domestic cricket for Canterbury, but is unlikely to play
0:09:52 > 0:09:53in the Ashes.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56A decision on whether to charge him following an incident outside
0:09:56 > 0:09:59a Bristol nightclub isn't expected for several weeks with his case
0:09:59 > 0:10:01now in the hands of the Crown
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Prosecution Service.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Chris Froome says he's targetting victory in next year's Giro d'Italia
0:10:05 > 0:10:11to complete a hattrick of cycling's biggest events.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15He'd become only the third rider to win the Giro,
0:10:15 > 0:10:20the Vuelta d'Espana and the Tour de France.
0:10:20 > 0:10:27He keeps a sort of setting is girls and I think that's the thing, he
0:10:27 > 0:10:34wants to break new boundaries and where he to win, it would be
0:10:34 > 0:10:39historic achievement if he did when the Giro d'Italia. That is what is
0:10:39 > 0:10:43setting its sights on. Just remarkable. Superhuman.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Back to our main story this morning, Donald Trump has hit back
0:10:46 > 0:10:49at Theresa May after she criticised him for sharing far-right
0:10:49 > 0:10:50videos on Twitter.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52The US President told the Prime Minister that she should
0:10:52 > 0:10:55be focusing on what he called destructive Radical Islamic
0:10:55 > 0:11:02terrorism in the UK rather than on him.
0:11:02 > 0:11:08Alex Forsyth is with us now. Good to see you, you are win the Prime
0:11:08 > 0:11:15Minister in Jordan. Any sense of how the Prime Minister is reacting to
0:11:15 > 0:11:21Donald Trump's reaction?There is some irony that this tour of the
0:11:21 > 0:11:25Middle East that Theresa May is undertaking is to build new global
0:11:25 > 0:11:28relationships and we have an argument brewing with the President
0:11:28 > 0:11:33of the United States. Yesterday, Downing Street issued a bit to the
0:11:33 > 0:11:37President saying he was wrong to tweak what he did but we haven't
0:11:37 > 0:11:41heard from the Prime Minister. She is giving a speech here in Jordan to
0:11:41 > 0:11:45members of the Cabinet and business community and during that they will
0:11:45 > 0:11:48be an opportunity to journalists to ask questions and you can bet what
0:11:48 > 0:11:52is going to come up and at this stage, it's inevitable she will have
0:11:52 > 0:11:56to address the situation directly particularly given Donald Trump's
0:11:56 > 0:12:00latest tweet and senior members of her party have had a lot to this --
0:12:00 > 0:12:02to say about this.
0:12:11 > 0:12:16He was backed by the leader of the Scottish Conservatives, the Labour
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Party later Jeremy Corbyn stating the government must condemn this.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24All eyes on Theresa May to seek how will react.We will be catching up
0:12:24 > 0:12:30with you later in the programme. Alex Forsyth travelling with the
0:12:30 > 0:12:31Prime Minister in Jordan.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34Michael Johns, a former speechwriter for President George HW Bush,
0:12:34 > 0:12:39joins us now.
0:12:39 > 0:12:45Thank you the time this morning, Michael. If you could give your
0:12:45 > 0:12:52analysis of where this sort of argument sits right now.I think you
0:12:52 > 0:12:56start with an understanding that has appreciated in Washington and London
0:12:56 > 0:13:00that the relationship between our countries is so vital and shared
0:13:00 > 0:13:05interests are so abundant that you don't want to see even an inch of
0:13:05 > 0:13:13space between us. What is unfortunate is that what has entered
0:13:13 > 0:13:18the public domain could have been handled more privately but I
0:13:18 > 0:13:22understand the terms -- the concerns on both parts. Spend a bit of time
0:13:22 > 0:13:28in United Kingdom, I have, and I have engaged with a lot of people
0:13:28 > 0:13:33and the perception on the President was a little fast and loose on some
0:13:33 > 0:13:40facts, maybe. The group is not recognised in the United States are
0:13:40 > 0:13:46not well respected in the UK. On the US perspective, what he's trying to
0:13:46 > 0:13:51across is really understanding that we are engaged in this global War on
0:13:51 > 0:14:01terror. It requires a real degree of commitment and Alliance and no room
0:14:01 > 0:14:06for being light on it. Immigration has been the means through which
0:14:06 > 0:14:10Islamic terrorists have entered these countries predominantly, not
0:14:10 > 0:14:17exclusively. If we are not looking at immigration, there is a lot of
0:14:17 > 0:14:21concern that it is not taken seriously enough. We are not
0:14:21 > 0:14:25seriously engaged in trying to walk when the war on terrorism.One of
0:14:25 > 0:14:30the problems you are of course and you will realise, the problems with
0:14:30 > 0:14:37some of the material that Donald Trump posted. Not representing what
0:14:37 > 0:14:42he thought it represented. A lot of people like saying here that he
0:14:42 > 0:14:47should have known this material was potentially not what he thought it
0:14:47 > 0:14:52was even if he was choosing to re- tweet that kind of material. You
0:14:52 > 0:14:56should have known that it didn't have harassed city, on top of which
0:14:56 > 0:15:00we now have the language in which he is telling the Prime Minister,
0:15:00 > 0:15:06Theresa May, our Prime Minister, don't focus on me, focus on Islamic
0:15:06 > 0:15:10terrorism. We are doing just fine. It almost feels like a put down to
0:15:10 > 0:15:17the British prime.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20Right, and I think it was a pretty direct response to that condemnation
0:15:20 > 0:15:26by Number Ten. I am sure it will be quickly and easily resolved. I am
0:15:26 > 0:15:31not at all concerned. I think the broader message is the important
0:15:31 > 0:15:38one. What the President, maybe inartfully, was trying to express at
0:15:38 > 0:15:43that time and what is hopefully a growing recognition after
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Manchester, after Westminster, after, you know, I think over 100
0:15:45 > 0:15:52civilian deaths from Islamic terrorism in the UK, what a
0:15:52 > 0:15:56significant threat this is.But Michael, can I just put to you, in
0:15:56 > 0:16:01the wider sense, a lot of people... Of course there is no argument about
0:16:01 > 0:16:06whether this is an important battle, over terrorism more generally. That
0:16:06 > 0:16:10is an established fact. But one of the issues for a lot of people here
0:16:10 > 0:16:17is that right at the core of trying to win some kind of battle over
0:16:17 > 0:16:21Islamic terrorism, for example, is that you get your facts right. That
0:16:21 > 0:16:24you don't disseminate things incorrectly, because that just adds
0:16:24 > 0:16:28to the confusion, and possibly gives the wrong people the right kind of
0:16:28 > 0:16:32impetus. I mean, you talk about trying to get the big message right.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36Well, that starts with a small message. So if President Trump
0:16:36 > 0:16:41retweet things that are not true, that are linked to issues around
0:16:41 > 0:16:44religious hatred, that is really bad in terms of the bigger debate you
0:16:44 > 0:16:49are talking about.Right, you know, I started my career in a sort of
0:16:49 > 0:16:53academic think-tank, in journalism, and one of the things that I preach
0:16:53 > 0:16:59when I make it a minor error on matters of fact, you are engaged in
0:16:59 > 0:17:03this on a daily basis, especially at an international level and at the
0:17:03 > 0:17:07White House, where nothing escapes scrutiny, you are going to make
0:17:07 > 0:17:11mistakes. We elected as president Dick as he was not a product of that
0:17:11 > 0:17:17world. He is a product of corporate America -- we elected this President
0:17:17 > 0:17:23because he was not a product of that world. A year he spent basically
0:17:23 > 0:17:27rebelling against the conventions of modern politics. We believe the
0:17:27 > 0:17:35problems are so severe that these periodic misstatements, or minor
0:17:35 > 0:17:41issues that might occur as it relates to someone not following
0:17:41 > 0:17:45these traditional protocols, is a very small sacrifice to make in

0:17:54 > 0:17:57general.Thank you very much for your time this morning. Very
0:17:57 > 0:18:05interesting hearing the respect of. -- hearing your perspective.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Here is Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
0:18:08 > 0:18:08You
0:18:08 > 0:18:14You said it is big coat time. Mine has been out for ages.You're a big
0:18:14 > 0:18:19coat comes out in the first of September. Very big coat day to day.
0:18:19 > 0:18:24The coldest day of the week, the last day of autumn. A light frost
0:18:24 > 0:18:28across the UK. Temperatures close to if not freezing. Minus six degrees
0:18:28 > 0:18:32in Worcestershire. The risk of ice in parts of Northern Ireland,
0:18:32 > 0:18:37England and northern Scotland, where some of you are waking up to a bit
0:18:37 > 0:18:42of St Andrew's day snow. A slight coating in Aberdeen city centre in
0:18:42 > 0:18:47the past day, and the snow flurries will continue. Some snow in East
0:18:47 > 0:18:52Yorkshire and North Yorkshire. In the west, showers. On the far west,
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Wales, Devon and Cornwall. Some of those easing through the day. In
0:18:56 > 0:19:00between, for a vast majority of the country it will be dry but the
0:19:00 > 0:19:04showers in the east will push a bit further inland through the day. And
0:19:04 > 0:19:07it is eastern areas where the wind chill will be most noticeable.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Either timely to the afternoon, school pick-up in the evening rush
0:19:10 > 0:19:14hour, snow flurries across the north and east of Scotland. In the wind,
0:19:14 > 0:19:19feeling more like -3 and minus four. A better afternoon in Northern
0:19:19 > 0:19:23Ireland, with some sunshine. Should stay dry to the west of the Pennines
0:19:23 > 0:19:27but east of the Pennines the showers will become more abundant later on.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Rain on the coast, rain, sleet and snow inland, giving a coating on the
0:19:30 > 0:19:36hills. A few showers in East Midlands, further west many will be
0:19:36 > 0:19:39dry. Showers easing a little bit in eastern England and Wales, shower
0:19:39 > 0:19:43starting to push offshore again. But the showers keep going in the
0:19:43 > 0:19:46eastern part of England during the night. The risk of some sleet and
0:19:46 > 0:19:49snow around, and there will be some ice. Temperatures only just above
0:19:49 > 0:19:53freezing for many as we go into tomorrow morning, but further west a
0:19:53 > 0:19:56cold night and for some, but Italy across Scotland, colder night than
0:19:56 > 0:20:00last night. Where we have snow lying, we could see temperatures
0:20:00 > 0:20:04down around minus ten. So a cold start to Friday morning again. The
0:20:04 > 0:20:07breeze becoming less abundant although showers continuing to feed
0:20:07 > 0:20:11into the far south-east corner of the country. Some of those pretty
0:20:11 > 0:20:14heavy, with rain. Crowding over a bit for Scotland and Northern
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Ireland with some rain and that will eventually bring in some slightly
0:20:17 > 0:20:22less cold as we go into the weekend. The weekend ahead will bring less
0:20:22 > 0:20:25cold air, gradually, of the Atlantic. The air coming from the
0:20:25 > 0:20:29west instead of the Arctic. So through this weekend, a little less
0:20:29 > 0:20:33cold. It will be a slow progress process to get to that milder air,
0:20:33 > 0:20:37and some patchy rain around at times as well.More updates throughout the
0:20:37 > 0:20:37morning.
0:20:37 > 0:20:43as well.More updates throughout the morning. It is cold.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47All this week, we have been looking at the issues facing families
0:20:47 > 0:20:49of children with special educational needs and disabilities.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52But what support is on offer when those children become adults?
0:20:52 > 0:20:55The education watchdog, Ofsted, has told Breakfast there has been
0:20:55 > 0:20:57little progress in providing things like education,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00health, and care for young people once they get to 19,
0:21:00 > 0:21:02with parents often describing the system as a cliff edge.
0:21:02 > 0:21:08Our disability affairs correspondent Nikki Fox has been finding out more.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13Did you have something to say?Ruth loves being at this specialist
0:21:13 > 0:21:20college.What colour is this, Ruth? But it has been tough getting to
0:21:20 > 0:21:28this point. Her dad had to fight to get her and education, health and
0:21:28 > 0:21:32care plan. Introduced three years ago as part of major reforms, they
0:21:32 > 0:21:36were designed to help children and young people like roof, up to the
0:21:36 > 0:21:41age of 25. It took tribunal 's and around two years to get one. During
0:21:41 > 0:21:46that time, Ruth missed a vital part in her course in speech and language
0:21:46 > 0:21:51therapy. She is 24 now, so she has only got one year left.Hello.Life
0:21:51 > 0:22:00with disabilities is a fight.The parents find it very hard. Mum is
0:22:00 > 0:22:04extremely worried. I once said many years ago to the social worker, when
0:22:04 > 0:22:09she was small, if something happens to me, put her in the grave with me.
0:22:09 > 0:22:15And I still feel that way. Because I do not actually feel that, in the
0:22:15 > 0:22:20past 15 years, we have actually made much of an improvement as far as
0:22:20 > 0:22:27services are concerned, for these vulnerable kids.After recent
0:22:27 > 0:22:30inspections, Ofsted has raised concerns about lack of help and
0:22:30 > 0:22:34resources for students once they reach the age of 19. Report also
0:22:34 > 0:22:41says the transfer to EHC plans has had a negative impact on many young
0:22:41 > 0:22:45people's lives. Wildlife expert Chris Packham wasn't diagnosed with
0:22:45 > 0:22:51Asperger's until he was in his 40s. He has had a a successful career and
0:22:51 > 0:22:55he is convinced that access to education is key.The highly gifted
0:22:55 > 0:23:00and people at finding is we can't ignore them. They are worth the
0:23:00 > 0:23:04investment. Everyone deserves a fair, proper education. That is what
0:23:04 > 0:23:09should be underlying the principle of our society, and at the moment
0:23:09 > 0:23:14they are not getting it.It is karaoke afternoon at this specialist
0:23:14 > 0:23:18training centre for people with learning disabilities. Its aim is to
0:23:18 > 0:23:23get talented young people like Ben Hanson a diploma and a job. He is on
0:23:23 > 0:23:27a placement which he hopes will lead to paid work.So you are working at
0:23:27 > 0:23:40a hotel.Yes.What are you doing at the hotel? Do you have a dream?Yes.
0:23:40 > 0:23:46What is your dream?I want to work in a posh hotel.You want to work in
0:23:46 > 0:23:52a posh hotel?Yes., with only around 6% of people with learning
0:23:52 > 0:23:55disabilities in employment, despite his energy and enthusiasm, the odds
0:23:55 > 0:24:00are against him.I think the whole thing is difficult. Post-18, one
0:24:00 > 0:24:05father described it to me as jumping off a cliff. There is no
0:24:05 > 0:24:08understanding that lifelong learning disability is there, that it is with
0:24:08 > 0:24:13you, and the education, health and care plan, that finishes at 25. Then
0:24:13 > 0:24:18what?Is college fund? Council say there isn't enough money or
0:24:18 > 0:24:23facilities to offer support up to the age of 25, but the government
0:24:23 > 0:24:27says it has recently put in an extra £45 million to help families of
0:24:27 > 0:24:31young people with special educational needs. All Ruth's
0:24:31 > 0:24:35parents want is for her education to continue for as long as possible, to
0:24:35 > 0:24:41give her the best shot at living are fulfilled, happy life.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Our disability correspondent Nikki Fox joins us now.
0:24:45 > 0:24:52Good morning.Good morning. Ruth, I mean, it is such an interesting
0:24:52 > 0:24:56story, looking at Ruth and how her parents were concerned about the
0:24:56 > 0:25:00future. What does the future hold for her?The thing with Ruth, it is
0:25:00 > 0:25:04unlikely she will get a job. Her disability is profound and affects
0:25:04 > 0:25:08her speech and language. She needed that education setting for as long
0:25:08 > 0:25:11as possible. In the time she is spending there, she is improving her
0:25:11 > 0:25:16communication and that will then set her up for a safe and happy life.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20She can express how she feels. Ruth's parents have got a lot to
0:25:20 > 0:25:24worry about, because when she leaves that place, what is going to happen?
0:25:24 > 0:25:28You know, is she going to move back in with them? They are obviously
0:25:28 > 0:25:34getting a bit older. Will she be able to live independently or in
0:25:34 > 0:25:37support of living? And they are typical of so many parents of
0:25:37 > 0:25:40children and young people who have got profound, complex disabilities,
0:25:40 > 0:25:44is that we all get stressed out, don't we? For the parents of kids
0:25:44 > 0:25:48with profound disabilities, it is constant, relentless, and doesn't
0:25:48 > 0:25:53let up. She is not going to move the university, move out. It is what is
0:25:53 > 0:25:57going to happen when I am no longer here, is the biggest concern for so
0:25:57 > 0:26:07many parents. It is stressful.We also met Ben, we heard about his
0:26:07 > 0:26:12dreams of working in a posh hotel. What happens now?He is in a
0:26:12 > 0:26:16placement, not paid work party desperate Lee wants to. The figures
0:26:16 > 0:26:20for people like Ben in employment have been shockingly low for a long
0:26:20 > 0:26:25time. It is 6% at the moment and that has decreased overtime. So the
0:26:25 > 0:26:29chances of Ben finding work, the odds are stacked against him. With
0:26:29 > 0:26:32an overall employment gap between nondisabled people and disabled
0:26:32 > 0:26:38people of around 30%, and that has not budged in around a decade. It
0:26:38 > 0:26:42has wavered, but it has not gone far from 30% and that means that 50% of
0:26:42 > 0:26:46disabled people are in work on compared to around 80% of
0:26:46 > 0:26:51nondisabled people. So for people like Ben it is a constant struggle.
0:26:51 > 0:27:04And you sort Rosa -- saw Rosa Monckton, she set up a charity to
0:27:04 > 0:27:09try and get them employment, but it is tough.And we have been talking
0:27:09 > 0:27:13about this all week, and we will talk more about it later in the
0:27:13 > 0:27:17programme. And you have been in touch with us all week. Please keep

0:31:15 > 0:31:16on the NHS next year.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18We'll be speaking to former Olympic swimming champion
0:31:18 > 0:31:21Mark Foster in his first broadcast interview since confirming
0:31:21 > 0:31:22he is gay.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24Over 10 million people hear him sing every week

0:31:30 > 0:31:32of the programme.
0:31:32 > 0:31:39Here's a summary of this morning's main stories from BBC News:
0:31:39 > 0:31:42President Trump has told Theresa May that she should pay more attention
0:31:42 > 0:31:45to tackling terrorism in the UK, rather than criticising him.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49(TX OOV) The message was delivered in a tweet last night
0:31:49 > 0:31:52-- The message was delivered in a tweet last night
0:31:52 > 0:31:55after Downing Street criticised the US President for sharing
0:31:55 > 0:31:57anti-Muslim videos posted by a British far-right group
0:31:57 > 0:31:58on social media.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01The row has placed more pressure on the Prime Minister to cancel
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Mr Trump's state visit to the UK next year.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06The United States has called on the international community
0:32:06 > 0:32:09to sever ties with North Korea - it follows the country's latest
0:32:09 > 0:32:10ballistic missile test.
0:32:10 > 0:32:11(TX OOV) North Korean state media claimed that Wednesday's missile
0:32:14 > 0:32:16-- North Korean state media claimed that Wednesday's missile
0:32:16 > 0:32:19launch was the most powerful in the country's history.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21At an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council,
0:32:21 > 0:32:24Washington's Ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley warned of dire
0:32:24 > 0:32:27consequences if war were to break out on the Korean peninsula.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30The dictator of North Korea made a choice yesterday that brings the
0:32:30 > 0:32:34world closer to war, not farther from it. We have never sought war
0:32:34 > 0:32:40with North Korea and still today, we do not seek it. If war does come, it
0:32:40 > 0:32:43will be because of continued acts of aggression like we witnessed
0:32:43 > 0:32:51yesterday and if war comes, make no mistake, the North Korean regime
0:32:51 > 0:32:53will be utterly destroyed.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56The government is setting out plans to get a million more disabled
0:32:56 > 0:32:58people into work over the next 10 years.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00(OOV) Less than half of the UK's disabled population is currently
0:33:03 > 0:33:06-- Less than half of the UK's disabled population is currently
0:33:06 > 0:33:09in work and last year only eight per cent of businesses employed
0:33:09 > 0:33:10a person with a disability.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Charities say progress from previous, similar schemes has
0:33:12 > 0:33:13been too slow.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16Scientists say they have made an "incredibly important" advance
0:33:16 > 0:33:17in the prevention of migraine.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19The results of two clinical trials
0:33:19 > 0:33:22showed that injections of antibodies can be used to neutralise a chemical
0:33:22 > 0:33:24which is believed to trigger severe headaches.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Around half of patients reported a 50% reduction
0:33:26 > 0:33:30in the number of attacks they had each month.

0:33:47 > 0:33:54Those are the main stories this morning. It is 6:33am which means it
0:33:54 > 0:33:57is time the sport. An absolute cracker of a goal from Wayne
0:33:57 > 0:34:00is time the sport. An absolute cracker of a goal from Wayne Rooney.
0:34:00 > 0:34:04They have buried then deep thumbs. Like, double jointed thumbs.Is it
0:34:04 > 0:34:19the -- very bendy thumbs. You have very bendy thumbs. That is weird.
0:34:19 > 0:34:27I'm talking about a Wayne Rooney Perla.Oh, that thumb.Tell us the

0:34:41 > 0:34:44his third, he says, one of the best goals he's ever scored.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47Hard to disagree.
0:34:47 > 0:34:53Especially when you're popping them in from the halfway line.
0:34:53 > 0:34:59That will give Sam Allardyce's team a great lift when he takes over.
0:34:59 > 0:35:03A great hat-trick, a great display from Wayne. He is captain and
0:35:03 > 0:35:09captain for a reason, going from a top environment after a top spell,
0:35:09 > 0:35:13tonight, we spoke about the bad run having to come to an end, it doesn't

0:35:17 > 0:35:20fight in times of trouble.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23From great goals to important ones, Raheem Sterling's 96th-minute winner

0:35:27 > 0:35:28into the top corner.

0:35:33 > 0:35:37It's a club-record 12th-successive Premier League win..

0:37:31 > 0:37:34In netball, England came from behind to beat Malawi
0:37:34 > 0:37:35and complete a 3-0 series win.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38The Roses were eight goals adrift after the first quarter
0:37:38 > 0:37:41in Birmingham but came back to complete a 62-60 victory.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44England, who are ranked third in the world, are building up
0:37:44 > 0:37:46to the Commonwealth Games in Australia next year.
0:37:46 > 0:37:52By the looks of it, they are in good form as well. A big win for them.
0:37:52 > 0:37:57Like the look of those goals. We will be showing it again later and
0:37:57 > 0:38:03again at 8:30 a.m..Will we be able to see your thumb later?I don't
0:38:03 > 0:38:08know what is weird about my thumb. When you did that with your thumb,
0:38:08 > 0:38:14we have the voices in our heads, the other voices in our heads, they all
0:38:14 > 0:38:22went, ooh! Look. That is a straight thumb and C's is even straighter and
0:38:22 > 0:38:29yours is bent.You are double jointed. It's all right.I don't
0:38:29 > 0:38:37know if there is any advantages to that.There will be. Thanks, John.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Litter levels recorded on the UK's beaches this year are 10%
0:38:40 > 0:38:43higher than they were a year ago, and 20% of everything found
0:38:43 > 0:38:45came from food and drink rubbish.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48So is it time to tax the worst offenders -
0:38:48 > 0:38:50coffee cups, plastic cutlery, and takeaway trays?
0:38:50 > 0:38:56That's what the Marine Conservation Society is calling for today.
0:38:56 > 0:38:57Lauren Eyles is from the charity's
0:38:57 > 0:39:02Beachwatch Programme, and joins us now.
0:39:02 > 0:39:09First floor, gives a sense of the scale the problem.Litter on UK
0:39:09 > 0:39:13beaches is a massive problem. The levels increased by 10% from last
0:39:13 > 0:39:19year which is huge and it highlights that we urgently need something, and
0:39:19 > 0:39:25more charges or refunds to reduce all the levels in the UK.What do
0:39:25 > 0:39:32they look like?We are calling for a charge or a levy on items such as
0:39:32 > 0:39:36copy cups, lives, stirrers and straws. The kind of items that we
0:39:36 > 0:39:41use on the go when we are out and about doing everyday things.A levy,
0:39:41 > 0:39:48tax?We up -- we are calling for a levy on these items, similar to the
0:39:48 > 0:39:54plastic bag charge. At the checkout, at shops, to encourage people to
0:39:54 > 0:39:59really think about why they are buying them. Do they really need
0:39:59 > 0:40:04that plastic bag, do they need that straw? It encourages that behaviour
0:40:04 > 0:40:08change that we really need to seek to reduce litter levels in the UK.
0:40:08 > 0:40:13It is one thing putting a levy or attacks but ultimately, the reason
0:40:13 > 0:40:17those things and about in the ocean in this case is because someone has
0:40:17 > 0:40:23dumped them. The responsibility for what people do with things, is that
0:40:23 > 0:40:27more important than the purchase of them in the first place? We were
0:40:27 > 0:40:32looking at those pictures, the plastic bottle. Why is it in the
0:40:32 > 0:40:38ocean? Somebody has just dumped it. That comes from a variety of
0:40:38 > 0:40:44different places. The public accounts were over 60%. We all have
0:40:44 > 0:40:48a responsibility to stop it getting there in the first place. Awareness
0:40:48 > 0:40:52is really increased across the UK over the last few years in terms of
0:40:52 > 0:40:56different campaigns and projects that are being run. But there needs
0:40:56 > 0:41:02to be a motivation to really stop people from using these items in the
0:41:02 > 0:41:07first place and we believe a levy would create that behaviour change
0:41:07 > 0:41:12as with plastic bags.Why is there still this problem? As Charlie said,
0:41:12 > 0:41:17that is what it comes down to. Whatever you buy, there are people
0:41:17 > 0:41:21who will go to the beach and dump their stuff or throw it out of cars.
0:41:21 > 0:41:26Why is that not changing significantly enough?It all boils
0:41:26 > 0:41:31down to awareness. That is the key to some of these issues. If we try
0:41:31 > 0:41:36and raise awareness, which, as I say, the issue of plastics has been
0:41:36 > 0:41:42massively raised, the profile of it in the last year I think we really
0:41:42 > 0:41:47need to really raise that awareness but like I said, really create that
0:41:47 > 0:41:51motivation and start placing more charges and refunds on these items.
0:41:51 > 0:41:56I was talking to someone this morning who said they stopped using
0:41:56 > 0:42:01plastic bags completely and 80% of the UK public have stopped buying
0:42:01 > 0:42:05plastic bags but they were saying it took a year to make that behaviour
0:42:05 > 0:42:10change.I am not quite following you. The plastic bags has been a
0:42:10 > 0:42:14success story in terms of the numbers that are going over the
0:42:14 > 0:42:18counter but I am sure on the beach is that we are seeing behind us, you
0:42:18 > 0:42:21are seeing plastic bags on the beaches because you are ending up
0:42:21 > 0:42:26with a hard core of people who are buying the bags in the first place
0:42:26 > 0:42:30but I still not behaving responsibly in relation to the stuff they do
0:42:30 > 0:42:34have.We have seen over a 20% reduction in plastic bag figures on
0:42:34 > 0:42:42UK beaches.The items discovered? Yes. There is a tangible link.That
0:42:42 > 0:42:46is why our data has showed that massive reduction we believe a levy
0:42:46 > 0:42:50is the right way to go on these other single use plastic items that
0:42:50 > 0:42:55are just unnecessary. You don't need to use them and if we place a levy
0:42:55 > 0:42:59on these items, we will hopefully see the reductions in those items
0:42:59 > 0:43:04like we did with the plastic bags. Interesting in the attitudes. When
0:43:04 > 0:43:08we had plastic cutlery, my mum would wash it and use it again. We just
0:43:08 > 0:43:14don't do that, we dispose of it.We have become a throwaway society and
0:43:14 > 0:43:20we want to see that change.Had he got a number on takeaway packaging?
0:43:20 > 0:43:26What is the price you are putting on that?It will vary. There is not one
0:43:26 > 0:43:31rule that would fit everything. We would want to see a similar price,
0:43:31 > 0:43:35like the plastic bags. Just a couple of pence to make people think about
0:43:35 > 0:43:39whether they really need that and to create that behaviour change and to
0:43:39 > 0:43:43stop those items being bought in the first place. Using a reusable
0:43:43 > 0:43:47alternative which makes a huge difference to us and the amazing
0:43:47 > 0:43:54wildlife that we get the UK.Thank you very much. Lauren miles from the
0:43:54 > 0:43:57Marine Conservation Society. If you did want to walk along the beach
0:43:57 > 0:44:04today, big coats are in order. Definitely the case, especially in
0:44:04 > 0:44:06eastern coastal counties. Pretty windy as well. A noticeable
0:44:06 > 0:44:13windchill. How is this for a scene in Scarborough this morning? A good
0:44:13 > 0:44:16covering of snow here and Scarborough is not alone. Some parts
0:44:16 > 0:44:25of northern Scotland, the outskirts of Aberdeen. Another coating as well
0:44:25 > 0:44:29to get St Andrew's Day up and running. Down all the way into
0:44:29 > 0:44:35Norfolk, a mixture of rain and sleet in land. Devon, Cornwall, to the
0:44:35 > 0:44:40west of Wales. An ice risk. The showers becoming confined further
0:44:40 > 0:44:44west during the day and in between those two areas of showers, most
0:44:44 > 0:44:49will have a dry and bright day. Take a look at what is happening three
0:44:49 > 0:44:53o'clock as we head towards the school run. Lots of sunshine in the
0:44:53 > 0:44:58west and south-west of Scotland. Still snow flurries to the north and
0:44:58 > 0:45:02east of Scotland. Two degrees, the thermometer will feel more like -3,
0:45:02 > 0:45:08minus four. The showers move a bit further inland. You can see the
0:45:08 > 0:45:14drain of sleet or snow. A bit more cloud towards the south-east. Lots
0:45:14 > 0:45:20of sunshine across western parts of England and Wales. Becoming confined
0:45:20 > 0:45:24out towards the far, far west as we go through this evening and into the
0:45:24 > 0:45:30night. Snow showers in northern Scotland. An ice riskier. Even with
0:45:30 > 0:45:36temperatures around the freezing market is not above. With clear
0:45:36 > 0:45:39skies, widespread -- widespread frost. It could get as low as -10
0:45:39 > 0:45:45through some parts of Scotland. Another cold start tomorrow. Still a
0:45:45 > 0:45:48breezy start an icy wind across the eastern parts of England. Showers
0:45:48 > 0:45:52becoming less abundant through the day. Further rain showers through
0:45:52 > 0:45:58the far south-east corner. Failure to Scotland and Northern Ireland.
0:45:58 > 0:46:02Still quite cold. Patchy rain developing. Something changing
0:46:02 > 0:46:08towards the north-west later. High pressure to the west of others. We
0:46:08 > 0:46:13are dragging the of the Atlantic. An indication this weekend we will see
0:46:13 > 0:46:17something a little less cheery. It will take a while. Saturday will
0:46:17 > 0:46:25still be cold. Notice that temperatures, temperatures lifting
0:46:25 > 0:46:30up. And by Sunday, after a spell of patchy rain and drizzle, clearing
0:46:30 > 0:46:33away from the south-east corner. Some brighter skies on Sunday. Lots
0:46:33 > 0:46:40of cloud but nowhere near as cold.
0:46:40 > 0:46:48That is a positive. Back to double digits.Only a brief one, though!
0:46:48 > 0:46:50Back to double digits.Happy happy.
0:46:50 > 0:46:53You heard from Nikki earlier that only a staggeringly small number,
0:46:53 > 0:46:55just 6%, of people who have a learning disability
0:46:55 > 0:46:56are in full-time paid work.
0:46:56 > 0:46:58So should employers be doing more?
0:46:58 > 0:47:01Sean is taking a look for us.
0:47:01 > 0:47:15Good morning. I have Craig and made to have a chat with me. -- Meg.
0:47:15 > 0:47:18Nikki was saying, wasn't she, the employment rate for people
0:47:18 > 0:47:20living with a disability is around 50%.
0:47:20 > 0:47:23That could be anything from needing a wheelchair to conditions such
0:47:23 > 0:47:26as autism, whereas the rate is about 80% for those without,
0:47:26 > 0:47:27a gap of 30%.
0:47:27 > 0:47:30And that gap has hardly moved for years, in spite of Government
0:47:30 > 0:47:36and business plans and proposals to get more people into work.
0:47:36 > 0:47:39We have talked about the issue on Breakfast before.
0:47:39 > 0:47:43I've got a couple of people with me who will know more about what can
0:47:43 > 0:47:44help, Craig and Meg.
0:47:44 > 0:47:49Craig, you represent a lot of small businesses, Meg, you are from
0:47:49 > 0:47:55Sodexo.We provide services to a range of organisations like schools,
0:47:55 > 0:47:59hospitals, and also corporate environments. And our services are
0:47:59 > 0:48:03things like catering, cleaning, Grounds, facilities management, as
0:48:03 > 0:48:07well as reception services.So we will get onto a few of those in a
0:48:07 > 0:48:11moment. Craig, when you hear that employment rate gap, 30%, why do you
0:48:11 > 0:48:18think it is so big?Well, if you start off with small businesses, who
0:48:18 > 0:48:22I represent, we find that the route back to work for many people comes
0:48:22 > 0:48:27through small business. So about 30% of that group you mentioned, more
0:48:27 > 0:48:31than 50% of those are through small businesses. So what we actually need
0:48:31 > 0:48:35to do is see what is working and make that bigger. There are lots of
0:48:35 > 0:48:40things we can do. If you are a small business owner, you tend to run your
0:48:40 > 0:48:43business like a family unit. What we would love to see is people feeling
0:48:43 > 0:48:47confident enough and knowing what they are doing in order to employ
0:48:47 > 0:48:51more people.And that rate must come from somewhere. Is it big business
0:48:51 > 0:48:56is not having enough of a focus and a within them for all the managers
0:48:56 > 0:49:00and all the recruiters within that this is to feel confident in
0:49:00 > 0:49:04recruiting everybody?I think it is an interesting point. Many large
0:49:04 > 0:49:08organisations like ours, where we employ 30,000 people, our local
0:49:08 > 0:49:13sites can still have that very family feel. So our experience is
0:49:13 > 0:49:18that while there is a large organisation which will have
0:49:18 > 0:49:21programmes in place and commitments to bring in people with
0:49:21 > 0:49:25disabilities, where that works well is when we have the commitment of
0:49:25 > 0:49:29the on-site teams who are really wanting to add to someone's
0:49:29 > 0:49:32quality-of-life I providing them with the opportunity to gain those
0:49:32 > 0:49:36employability skills. We know it is difficult for those people to gain
0:49:36 > 0:49:40them, especially early in their careers.Yes, and that first step on
0:49:40 > 0:49:44the ladder of employment can be the hardest, especially when you are
0:49:44 > 0:49:48trying to send CV 's to many businesses. Do you think as an
0:49:48 > 0:49:51employer that people who are looking at those TVs, if they see that
0:49:51 > 0:49:54someone on those living with a disability, compared to somebody
0:49:54 > 0:50:00else who isn't, but that may affect their way of thinking a little bit?
0:50:00 > 0:50:04There is lots of research showing that people really do have bias is
0:50:04 > 0:50:07against people with disabilities, and I think the key thing for
0:50:07 > 0:50:14organisations to do is to break down those barriers. So from a Sodexo
0:50:14 > 0:50:17perspective, we do organisation wide campaigns featuring people with
0:50:17 > 0:50:21successful jobs in our organisation who perhaps have invisible
0:50:21 > 0:50:24disabilities, so people who have started as chefs or general managers
0:50:24 > 0:50:27and become much more senior within our organisation and had that
0:50:27 > 0:50:34successful career progression.And Craig, just very briefly, we will
0:50:34 > 0:50:37speak to the government a little later, is there anything they can do
0:50:37 > 0:50:44to help small businesses?Yes, one thought was a national insurers
0:50:44 > 0:50:51holiday, so someone has autism or other guests, I have seen some of
0:50:51 > 0:50:54the promotions you have done over the last few days where there are
0:50:54 > 0:50:58people with real talent, and we have to find those people and get them
0:50:58 > 0:51:02real jobs. One way is for a small business owner, that is the person
0:51:02 > 0:51:07we need to convince to do this kind of good work as soon as we have done
0:51:07 > 0:51:10that, that small business will do that forever more. You mentioned
0:51:10 > 0:51:13your company, but I found another company who produced educational
0:51:13 > 0:51:18materials for autistic kids, and that is from a mother who had an
0:51:18 > 0:51:22idea, created a business, created apprenticeships with autistic
0:51:22 > 0:51:29children. You can see it work. And if there was a financial incentive,
0:51:29 > 0:51:32that first year of employment, to look after someone with a
0:51:32 > 0:51:38disability, that would be a real plus.That is one thing to May be
0:51:38 > 0:51:40put to the government a little later in the programme.
0:51:40 > 0:51:43The Northern Ireland Secretary has told Breakfast that the Government
0:51:43 > 0:51:46recognises that the final Brexit deal will have to recognise
0:51:46 > 0:51:48the unique challenges posed by the Irish border.
0:51:48 > 0:51:51The Irish Government and the EU have been pushing for Northern Ireland
0:51:51 > 0:51:54to remain inside the customs union and single market,
0:51:54 > 0:51:56even if the rest of the UK leaves.
0:51:56 > 0:51:59That is now the main sticking point stopping Brexit negotiations
0:51:59 > 0:52:00from moving on to trade.
0:52:00 > 0:52:05Chris Buckler has been looking at the challenges.
0:52:05 > 0:52:07For many months now, politicians have been huddled
0:52:07 > 0:52:16in Brexit negotiations.
0:52:16 > 0:52:19The UK and the EU both pushing their priorities.
0:52:19 > 0:52:22And what is decided on one of the key issues will have quite
0:52:22 > 0:52:31an impact here.
0:52:31 > 0:52:37The Derry Donegal Vipers are an Irish-American football team,
0:52:37 > 0:52:40and their players come from both Northern Ireland and the Republic.
0:52:40 > 0:52:42Our whole team is split almost down the middle,
0:52:42 > 0:52:45from either side of the border, which is great.
0:52:45 > 0:52:49A key question is, what will happen to that border after Brexit?
0:52:49 > 0:52:51In the future, is it possible that people will have
0:52:51 > 0:52:54to negotiate their way through customs posts as they once
0:52:54 > 0:52:55did in the past?
0:52:55 > 0:52:58A hard border would make it difficult, because you pretty much
0:52:58 > 0:53:00have to go through customs checks to go
0:53:00 > 0:53:03to training a couple of times a week.
0:53:03 > 0:53:05They'll think you're suspicious carrying these big bags
0:53:05 > 0:53:09and helmets across.
0:53:09 > 0:53:12That is a journey many take on a daily basis.
0:53:12 > 0:53:14Some are wondering what their morning commute will be
0:53:14 > 0:53:21like in the future.
0:53:21 > 0:53:26They're saying they do not want a hard border, but the detail of not
0:53:26 > 0:53:29having a hard border, it has never been clearly defined
0:53:29 > 0:53:34for me.
0:53:34 > 0:53:38She lives in County Donegal, and every day crosses
0:53:38 > 0:53:41the border to go to a job as a
0:53:41 > 0:53:44principal in Londonderry.
0:53:44 > 0:53:47This is an old customs post right here.
0:53:47 > 0:53:55That was the place where you were stopped.
0:53:55 > 0:53:58Her concerns about a hard border go beyond potential traffic delays.
0:53:58 > 0:53:59The community is quite seamless.
0:53:59 > 0:54:03A lot of talk about the economy, and the impact on the economy,
0:54:03 > 0:54:10much less the social fabric of the Society of a border people,
0:54:10 > 0:54:11which we are.
0:54:11 > 0:54:16Many cross the border regularly to go to school, even hospital.
0:54:16 > 0:54:19They said that the British Government has been too late
0:54:19 > 0:54:20in recognising the true impact of Brexiteer.
0:54:20 > 0:54:23They're not thinking about the consequences of Brexit.
0:54:23 > 0:54:26The consequences for people who have become used,
0:54:26 > 0:54:28and have mortgages and people in college,
0:54:28 > 0:54:33based upon a livelihood which appreciates the fact that
0:54:33 > 0:54:39you can move across without tariffs.
0:54:39 > 0:54:44The biggest obstacle to ensuring there are no obstacles
0:54:44 > 0:54:47on the many border bridges and roads are to do with customs.
0:54:47 > 0:54:51The EU says it Northern Ireland was to stick to the same economic
0:54:51 > 0:54:52rules, the issue would be sold.
0:54:52 > 0:54:55The Prime Minister has been very clear in saying that,
0:54:55 > 0:54:57as we leave the European Union, we leave
0:54:57 > 0:55:05the single market is and we leave the customs union.
0:55:05 > 0:55:08But we know there need to be specific outcomes,
0:55:08 > 0:55:12to meet the unique circumstances of Northern Ireland
0:55:12 > 0:55:20and the island of Ireland as a whole.
0:55:20 > 0:55:22That sounds like a desire to deal.
0:55:22 > 0:55:24They want guarantees about the border.
0:55:24 > 0:55:26That means there will be more clashes to come.
0:55:26 > 0:55:30Chris is in Londonderry this morning, and we can talk to him now.
0:55:30 > 0:55:33I know you have been speaking to either side of the border.Yes, I
0:55:33 > 0:55:37mean, the thing is, it is just that question of uncertainty. I am
0:55:37 > 0:55:42standing on the Peace Bridge in Derry, Londonderry. Even what you
0:55:42 > 0:55:46call the city is something that divides people. But the thing is the
0:55:46 > 0:55:50peace process, and we are standing on the Peace Bridge, has had a
0:55:50 > 0:55:54really clear impact on people's lives. There are two that have been
0:55:54 > 0:55:58brought together, and the border in the past, people talk about the
0:55:58 > 0:56:03security border, and that is what is foremost in their minds. Whenever
0:56:03 > 0:56:06they had to be a security presence at that point where Northern Ireland
0:56:06 > 0:56:10met the Republic of Ireland. There is nobody suggesting that that is
0:56:10 > 0:56:14going to return, but there is a real issue about what will happen there.
0:56:14 > 0:56:16When people talk about a hard border, they mean protest
0:56:16 > 0:56:19potentially customs posts, that people might have to go through some
0:56:19 > 0:56:23kind of physical presence again, and people don't want that. They live
0:56:23 > 0:56:27their lives on either side of the border. They go to see friends, they
0:56:27 > 0:56:31do shopping, they do all sorts of things. So we will be travelling the
0:56:31 > 0:56:35entire length of the 300 mile border, talking to people all day.
0:56:35 > 0:56:39We will begin that journey right now, and a little later on Breakfast
0:56:39 > 0:56:43I will join you from right but that order, and we will find out what
0:56:43 > 1:00:05people there think.300 miles in a day.
1:00:05 > 1:00:08By the time we get to Sunday, we're up to 10 degrees.
1:00:08 > 1:00:11I'm back with the latest from the BBC London newsroom
1:00:11 > 1:00:12in half an hour.
1:00:12 > 1:00:15Plenty more on our website at the usual address.
1:00:15 > 1:00:17Now, though, it is back to Charlie and Naga.
1:00:17 > 1:00:19Bye for now.
1:00:20 > 1:00:21This is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty
1:00:21 > 1:00:22and Charlie Stayt.
1:00:22 > 1:00:23Donald Trump lashes out
1:00:23 > 1:00:26at Theresa May in a row over anti-Muslim videos.
1:00:26 > 1:00:28The Prime Minister criticised the US President
1:00:28 > 1:00:30for sharing a series of posts by the far-right group
1:00:30 > 1:00:31Britain First.
1:00:31 > 1:00:33But last night, Mr Trump tweeted that she should instead be focussd
1:00:42 > 1:00:43Good morning.
1:00:43 > 1:00:47It's Thursday 30 November.
1:00:47 > 1:00:49Also this morning:
1:00:49 > 1:00:52A warning that children with special educational needs aren't getting
1:00:52 > 1:00:57the support they need once they hit 18.
1:00:57 > 1:01:00We'll hear from parents desperately concerned about what the future
1:01:00 > 1:01:01holds for their families.
1:01:01 > 1:01:05I once said many years ago to the social worker
1:01:05 > 1:01:11when I was small, if something happens to me, put in the grave
1:01:11 > 1:01:13with me and I still feel that way.
1:01:13 > 1:01:14A breakthrough in migraine prevention.
1:01:14 > 1:01:17Doctors say a new treatment could significantly cut the number
1:01:17 > 1:01:19and severity of attacks.
1:01:19 > 1:01:20Good morning.
1:01:20 > 1:01:23Kelloggs will be cutting the sugar in some of its sweeter cereals,
1:01:23 > 1:01:25but not all of them.
1:01:25 > 1:01:28So later on, I'll be talking to company's boss about why they've
1:01:28 > 1:01:32taken this decision now.
1:01:32 > 1:01:32Good morning.
1:01:32 > 1:01:34In sport, how about this for impressing
1:01:34 > 1:01:36your new manager?
1:01:36 > 1:01:38Wayne Rooney with a hattrick and one of the best
1:01:38 > 1:01:42gfoals he's ever scored in front of Sam Allardyce who will be
1:01:42 > 1:01:44appointed Everton manager later.
1:01:44 > 1:01:45-- goals.
1:01:45 > 1:01:47A Breakfast exclusive, as the Olympic swimmer Mark Foster
1:01:47 > 1:01:50gives his first TV interview since revealing that he is gay.
1:01:50 > 1:01:52We'll speak to him just after 7:30.
1:01:52 > 1:01:57And Matt has the weather.
1:01:57 > 1:02:01All disturb a week out there today. The most of us, and bright. That bit
1:02:01 > 1:02:06of snow across parts of eastern England and Scotland. I will tell
1:02:06 > 1:02:10you if it's going to affect more of you. See them.
1:02:10 > 1:02:11Good morning.
1:02:11 > 1:02:12First, our main story.
1:02:12 > 1:02:15President Trump has told Theresa May that she should pay more attention
1:02:15 > 1:02:18to tackling terrorism in the UK, rather than criticising him.
1:02:18 > 1:02:20The message was delivered in a tweet last night
1:02:20 > 1:02:23after Downing Street criticised the US President for sharing
1:02:23 > 1:02:25anti-Muslim videos posted by a British far-right group
1:02:25 > 1:02:26on social media.
1:02:26 > 1:02:29The row has placed more pressure on the Prime Minister to cancel
1:02:29 > 1:02:35Mr Trump's state visit to the UK next year.
1:02:35 > 1:02:37Our North America Correspondent Laura Bicker has more.
1:02:37 > 1:02:39They may have held hands once but this so-called special
1:02:39 > 1:02:42relationship is now being tested by a series of presidential tweets.
1:02:42 > 1:02:45First, from the account of a far right anti-Muslim group called
1:02:45 > 1:02:49Britain First, Donald Trump retweeted three inflammatory
1:02:49 > 1:02:50videos to his 43 million followers.
1:02:50 > 1:02:53The first claimed incorrectly to show a Muslim migrant attacking
1:02:53 > 1:02:59a man on crutches.
1:02:59 > 1:03:02When challenged, the White House said the videos might not be
1:03:02 > 1:03:04real but the threat was.
1:03:04 > 1:03:07Both Theresa May and a lot of other world leaders across this country,
1:03:07 > 1:03:11I mean, across the world, know that these are real threats
1:03:11 > 1:03:14that we have to talk about.
1:03:14 > 1:03:17I think Europe has seen that a lot firsthand and something
1:03:17 > 1:03:20the President wants to continue to talk about and continue to make
1:03:20 > 1:03:21sure that we're dealing with.
1:03:21 > 1:03:25Theresa May is on a tour of the Middle East but her official
1:03:25 > 1:03:28spokesman said the President had been wrong to share the posts.
1:03:28 > 1:03:30It was that condemnation which prompted a Twitter outburst
1:03:30 > 1:03:34from Donald Trump's account.
1:03:34 > 1:03:37He told Theresa May not to focus on him but to focus
1:03:37 > 1:03:42on the destructive radical Islamic terrorism taking
1:03:42 > 1:03:43place within the United Kingdom.
1:03:43 > 1:03:45"We are doing just fine," he said.
1:03:45 > 1:03:48The President has caused diplomatic headaches for the UK several times
1:03:48 > 1:03:51already this year.
1:03:51 > 1:03:54From backing Nigel Farage as an ambassador to Washington,
1:03:54 > 1:03:55to attacking the London Mayor Sadiq Khan,
1:03:55 > 1:03:57all from his favourite social media platform.
1:03:57 > 1:04:04It may be a show of strength for his supporters but it may also
1:04:04 > 1:04:05weaken his position abroad.
1:04:05 > 1:04:14Laura Bicker, BBC News, Washington.
1:04:14 > 1:04:18Alex Forsyth is travelling with the Prime Minister in Jordan this
1:04:18 > 1:04:25morning. There was a bluntness to it in a way. Don't focus on me, Theresa
1:04:25 > 1:04:32May. Focus on Islamic radical terrorism. We are doing just fine.
1:04:32 > 1:04:41What he is shearing so far?It was a pretty blunt tweet. Some would see
1:04:41 > 1:04:45that is pure criticism of Theresa May and is a bit of Iranian fact
1:04:45 > 1:04:50that while the Prime Minister is here doing a very short tour of the
1:04:50 > 1:04:53Middle East to try and forge new partnerships and make friendships
1:04:53 > 1:04:56around the world, there is this argument with the President of the
1:04:56 > 1:05:01United States. We did that -- we did have that rebuke from Downing Street
1:05:01 > 1:05:05but we haven't heard directly from the Prime Minister. This morning,
1:05:05 > 1:05:15she is due to address the conference. There will be a Q&A from
1:05:15 > 1:05:19journalists. It seems inevitable she has to respond to the latest from
1:05:19 > 1:05:23Donald Trump and among senior figures in her party, there is
1:05:23 > 1:05:28condemnation of the President of the United States.
1:05:37 > 1:05:42He was backed by the leader of the Scottish Conservatives, the Labour
1:05:42 > 1:05:45leader, Jeremy Kervin -- Jeremy Corbyn urging the government to
1:05:45 > 1:05:49condemn this. All eyes on Theresa May to see how she is going to
1:05:49 > 1:05:50respond.
1:05:50 > 1:05:53The United States has called on the international community
1:05:53 > 1:05:56to sever ties with North Korea - it follows the country's latest
1:05:56 > 1:05:57ballistic missile test.
1:05:57 > 1:05:59North Korean state media claimed that Wednesday's missile
1:05:59 > 1:06:02launch was the most powerful in the country's history.
1:06:02 > 1:06:04At an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council,
1:06:04 > 1:06:07Washington's Ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley warned of dire
1:06:07 > 1:06:10consequences if war were to break out on the Korean peninsula.
1:06:10 > 1:06:13The dictator of North Korea made a choice yesterday that brings
1:06:13 > 1:06:16the world closer to war, not farther from it.
1:06:16 > 1:06:21We have never sought war with North Korea and still today,
1:06:21 > 1:06:23we do not seek it.
1:06:23 > 1:06:26If war does come, it will be because of continued acts
1:06:26 > 1:06:30of aggression like we witnessed yesterday and if war comes,
1:06:30 > 1:06:48make no mistake, the North Korean regime will be utterly destroyed.
1:06:48 > 1:06:55A 24-year-old British man, Oliver Hall, has been killed clearing mines
1:06:55 > 1:07:00in Raqqa. He is the seventh British man to be killed in Syria for the
1:07:00 > 1:07:16Kurdish- led group, the YPG.
1:07:16 > 1:07:25Probably a yellow banana.
1:07:25 > 1:07:26Trying out new technology...
1:07:26 > 1:07:27Left edge, 5 feet away.
1:07:27 > 1:07:30A child consultant, Hannah is testing face-recognition gadgets
1:07:30 > 1:07:31which could help her at work.
1:07:31 > 1:07:34She lost her sight five years ago and is now registered blind.
1:07:34 > 1:07:37During that time, she found it hard to get a job.
1:07:37 > 1:07:41I left uni with a first-class degree in law and I've been turned down
1:07:41 > 1:07:44from kind of basic admin roles when I had quite significant
1:07:44 > 1:07:48experience and that sort of thing.
1:07:48 > 1:07:51Some of them, I might not have got the job anyway.
1:07:51 > 1:07:55Some of them, it was quite clear from the questions they are asking,
1:07:55 > 1:07:56it was because of my disability.
1:07:56 > 1:07:59The employment gap between disabled and non-disabled people hasn't
1:07:59 > 1:08:00significantly changed for some years
1:08:00 > 1:08:02despite a pledge back in 2015 to halve it.
1:08:02 > 1:08:06Today, the government has published a plan that aims to see 1 million
1:08:06 > 1:08:09more disabled people in work over the next 10 years.
1:08:09 > 1:08:10We are making progress.
1:08:10 > 1:08:13We've got 600,000 more disabled people in work than we did
1:08:13 > 1:08:14four years ago.
1:08:14 > 1:08:17What we want to do is continue to work with employers,
1:08:17 > 1:08:21to continue to exploit the opportunities of new technology
1:08:21 > 1:08:24and to keep testing and learning to find out what works,
1:08:24 > 1:08:27what are the things that actually can make a difference
1:08:27 > 1:08:29so that more disabled people can fulfil their potential
1:08:29 > 1:08:30and get a good job.
1:08:30 > 1:08:33Today's announcement also includes measures to provide access
1:08:33 > 1:08:34to personalised support for those with
1:08:34 > 1:08:37mental health issues and an increase in the variety of healthcare
1:08:37 > 1:08:39professionals who are able to issue fitness-to-work notices
1:08:39 > 1:08:41but with employment rates for people with
1:08:41 > 1:08:44learning disabilities at around 6%,
1:08:44 > 1:08:47charities are warning the progreess is too slow.
1:08:47 > 1:08:49Nikki Fox, BBC News.
1:08:49 > 1:08:52We'll be talking to the Work and Pensions Secretary David Gauke
1:08:52 > 1:08:56about this just after 8:00.
1:08:56 > 1:08:58Investigations are under way following the death
1:08:58 > 1:09:01of a Bosnian Croat war criminal, who drank poison in court
1:09:01 > 1:09:03after he was convicted of crimes against humanity.
1:09:03 > 1:09:05Just moments after United Nations judges
1:09:05 > 1:09:10upheld his 20-year sentence at the International Criminal Tribunal
1:09:10 > 1:09:12in the Hague, Slobodan Praljak said he rejected
1:09:12 > 1:09:16the verdict and drank what he said was poison.
1:09:16 > 1:09:20The 72-year old died in hospital and the UN announced the courtroom
1:09:20 > 1:09:22was now "a crime scene".
1:09:22 > 1:09:25A watchdog has found that police helicopters take so long to reach
1:09:25 > 1:09:28crime scenes that more than 40 per cent of incidents are over
1:09:28 > 1:09:29before they arrive.
1:09:29 > 1:09:32In its first independent study of police air support,
1:09:32 > 1:09:34Her Majesty's Inpectorate of Constabulary said helicopters
1:09:34 > 1:09:40and bases were providing sub-standard responses
1:09:40 > 1:09:42to ongoing incidents.
1:09:42 > 1:09:45Inspectors have called for the service in England and Wales
1:09:45 > 1:09:53to be urgently reformed or replaced.
1:09:53 > 1:09:56Litter on beaches rose by 10% this year,
1:09:56 > 1:09:59with a fifth of the rubbish made up of on-the-go food and drinks items
1:09:59 > 1:10:01such as cups, foil wrappers and bottles.
1:10:01 > 1:10:03The Marine Conservation Society is now calling
1:10:03 > 1:10:07on the Government to put a levy on single-use items handed over
1:10:07 > 1:10:15for free like plastic cutlery, straws and sandwich packaging.
1:10:15 > 1:10:20To really stop people from using these items in the first place and
1:10:20 > 1:10:24we believe a levy would create that behaviour change as it has done with
1:10:24 > 1:10:25a plastic bag charge.
1:10:25 > 1:10:28American Airlines says it has suffered a computer glitch,
1:10:28 > 1:10:31which has allowed too many staff to take time off over Christmas,
1:10:31 > 1:10:33leaving 15,000 flights without a pilot.
1:10:33 > 1:10:35Earlier this year, Ryanair was forced to cancel
1:10:35 > 1:10:38thousands of flights because of a similar mistake
1:10:38 > 1:10:42with the scheduling of leave.
1:10:42 > 1:10:44American Airlines is offering staff extra money to tempt them
1:10:44 > 1:10:49back to work.
1:10:49 > 1:10:53Matt is going to have the weather for some few minutes and John will
1:10:53 > 1:10:57have the sport later.
1:10:57 > 1:11:00It's being described as a huge deal by scientists -
1:11:00 > 1:11:02a breakthrough in migraine treatment which appears to have reduced
1:11:02 > 1:11:05the number and severity of attacks in some people by half.
1:11:05 > 1:11:07So just how significant are these findings,
1:11:07 > 1:11:08and when might
1:11:08 > 1:11:10we see treatment available on the NHS?
1:11:10 > 1:11:13We're joined now by Sally Cleary, who suffers from severe migraines,
1:11:13 > 1:11:18and by Dr Fayyaz Ahmed, a consultant neurologist.
1:11:18 > 1:11:29Let's start with you. Celek, tells what you suffer with.I was
1:11:29 > 1:11:33diagnosed nine years ago with the birth of my third child in a woke up
1:11:33 > 1:11:37one morning, my daughter was five weeks old and I thought I had a
1:11:37 > 1:11:43stroke. I was slurring my words, I was confused and after a few days of
1:11:43 > 1:11:47investigation, by a process of elimination, I had a form of
1:11:47 > 1:11:55migraine, very unusual and it has quite interesting symptoms and I
1:11:55 > 1:12:03don't get headaches with it. Because it hasn't been diagnosed until then
1:12:03 > 1:12:11what happens when you have one of these? I have quite profound
1:12:11 > 1:12:15physical symptoms. Confusion, dizziness, problems with logical
1:12:15 > 1:12:21reasoning, thinking of the next step. I slur my words. I can't find
1:12:21 > 1:12:27words, sometimes can't even speak. I have problems following what people
1:12:27 > 1:12:32are saying is. And I have one sided numbness and weakness. It looks a
1:12:32 > 1:12:39little bit like I have had a soap --a stroke. I do have quite a fine
1:12:39 > 1:12:50-- profound aura. It gives these sort of different symptoms.That is
1:12:50 > 1:12:53a very graphic description of what it is like living with the
1:12:53 > 1:12:57condition. It is suggested the new trials could reduce the number and
1:12:57 > 1:13:03severity of migraine attacks.Dr Fayyaz Ahmed, tells a bit more. The
1:13:03 > 1:13:07new drugs that are currently going to be marketed only -- in the next
1:13:07 > 1:13:15year or so, the first ever drug that has been developed for migraine.
1:13:15 > 1:13:22Currently, what drugs we use our fourth depression, epilepsy. And
1:13:22 > 1:13:35they also work for migraine.It's a bold claim. Does it work. --?The
1:13:35 > 1:13:39data suggests it works similar to other drugs but the beauty of these
1:13:39 > 1:13:44is they have little to know side-effects. Secondly, the patient
1:13:44 > 1:13:48will administer the drug themselves, given as an infection like an
1:13:48 > 1:13:52insulin injection. They do it without going to the hospital and it
1:13:52 > 1:13:58produced the hospital costs. It depends on how it is marketed. The
1:13:58 > 1:14:03best thing about the drug is that it will work for migraine and it is a
1:14:03 > 1:14:12ninth -- an anti- migraine drug, not antihypertensive or anti- epileptic.
1:14:12 > 1:14:20Sally was explaining about a -- aura.Can you explain? What we know,
1:14:20 > 1:14:27there is an area in the brain involved in migraine. What happens
1:14:27 > 1:14:30with the aura, you get similar symptoms, flashing light in front of
1:14:30 > 1:14:39your eyes. You develop numbness. And as if you are developing a stroke.
1:14:39 > 1:14:45It's very worrying for patients. Sally, have you been offered any of
1:14:45 > 1:14:51this?I haven't but I have a brilliant neurologist. My condition
1:14:51 > 1:15:00is very well managed. I am on drugs and on Botox for it. I don't have
1:15:00 > 1:15:05any caffeine, no painkillers, three litres of water. I avoid triggers.
1:15:05 > 1:15:09I've still got this condition comically even though the symptoms a
1:15:09 > 1:15:17much milder, but I still do have several attacks.
1:15:17 > 1:15:22And for a lot of other people, you say you are able to manage your
1:15:22 > 1:15:26condition using what you have presently but for people who have
1:15:26 > 1:15:29not yet reached the point you are at, this could be a real
1:15:29 > 1:15:33breakthrough.It could be. I think a migraine is misunderstood. I don't
1:15:33 > 1:15:37think people realise how many different symptoms you can have with
1:15:37 > 1:15:41a migraine. They are a bit dismissive and say you have a
1:15:41 > 1:15:44headache, then. A lot of people don't have a headache with
1:15:44 > 1:15:49migraines, and they have a myriad of other symptoms. It can be disabling
1:15:49 > 1:15:53and devastating, and it is really positive that this is on the
1:15:53 > 1:15:57horizon.Thank you for sharing your story with us, and thank you for
1:15:57 > 1:16:01your time.
1:16:01 > 1:16:04Here is Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
1:16:04 > 1:16:05Here is Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
1:16:05 > 1:16:11It is not all good news. It is snowy.It certainly is. If you are
1:16:11 > 1:16:15waking up in eastern parts of North Yorkshire, East Yorkshire, Norfolk
1:16:15 > 1:16:19and northern Scotland, we have seen for some of you similar to this one
1:16:19 > 1:16:23Bridlington, that may cause problems on the roads for you this morning.
1:16:23 > 1:16:27Most waking up clear and frosty this morning. Temperatures at the moment
1:16:27 > 1:16:31across parts of the West Midlands down to -5, -3 in north-west England
1:16:31 > 1:16:35as well and we have seen some showers overnight. Not just the snow
1:16:35 > 1:16:40but a bit of an ice risk around, so take it a bit gingerly on roads and
1:16:40 > 1:16:44pavements. Taking a look at what is happening, those showers coming in
1:16:44 > 1:16:48on quite a cold and raw wind to north-west Scotland. It is rain
1:16:48 > 1:16:52showers mainly to the far west of Wales, the far west of Devon, choral
1:16:52 > 1:16:55and Northern Ireland. A bit of brightness in between but there is
1:16:55 > 1:17:01an ice risk here. Improving across these areas, deteriorating in
1:17:01 > 1:17:04eastern counties through the afternoon, the same for other parts
1:17:04 > 1:17:08of south-east Scotland. Most of Scotland will have a dry and bright
1:17:08 > 1:17:12day, lots of sunshine around. The temperatures two or three degrees,
1:17:12 > 1:17:15colder than that in the breeze. The same in Northern Ireland but the
1:17:15 > 1:17:19afternoon brighter than the morning. Lots of dry weather around, some
1:17:19 > 1:17:22sunshine as well but east the Pennines you will see the showers
1:17:22 > 1:17:25getting further and further westwards. There will be a mixture
1:17:25 > 1:17:30of rain, sleet, hail and snow. One or two wintry flurry is getting
1:17:30 > 1:17:34close to the south-east corner but clouding over here, feeling like -3
1:17:34 > 1:17:38-4 in the wind. We still have showers in the far western fringes
1:17:38 > 1:17:42of Cornwall at this stage. The showers keep going in eastern parts
1:17:42 > 1:17:45of England, south-east Scotland again, with a slight covering of
1:17:45 > 1:17:50snow. Ice cover the main risk for some of you as we go into Friday
1:17:50 > 1:17:52morning in the east. Tomorrow morning in the west, clearer
1:17:52 > 1:17:56conditions but very, very cold indeed. Where you have snow lying in
1:17:56 > 1:18:01parts of rural Scotland, -10 is not out of the question. So chilly start
1:18:01 > 1:18:05to Friday morning. Still some showers, some wintry showers at that
1:18:05 > 1:18:10in eastern England, but clearing up. Icy wind easing for all but East
1:18:10 > 1:18:14Anglia and the far south-east of England. Much of England and Wales
1:18:14 > 1:18:17having a dry and bright afternoon. Cardiff Scotland and Northern
1:18:17 > 1:18:20Ireland tomorrow. Still feeling very cold out there but eventually
1:18:20 > 1:18:23outbreaks of rain pushing in from the north and the west and the
1:18:23 > 1:18:27sudden change in wind direction. This high-pressure means that
1:18:27 > 1:18:31instead of bringing winds from the Arctic we are bringing them from the
1:18:31 > 1:18:34Atlantic, and the weather warms up just a touch this weekend. It will
1:18:34 > 1:18:40be a slow process, still feeling raw with not as much sunshine around.
1:18:40 > 1:18:44Lots of cloud, patchy rain and drizzle in the west. Already eight
1:18:44 > 1:18:47to 10 degrees in Scotland and Northern Ireland and the milder air
1:18:47 > 1:18:51will be down towards the south by Saturday after overnight drizzle has
1:18:51 > 1:18:56cleared. For many, much cloudier than it was today, but temperatures
1:18:56 > 1:19:00on the up. That is how it is looking.
1:19:00 > 1:19:03All this week, we have been looking at the issues facing families
1:19:03 > 1:19:05of children with special educational needs and disabilities.
1:19:05 > 1:19:07But what support is on offer when those children become adults?
1:19:07 > 1:19:08But what support is on offer when those children become adults?
1:19:08 > 1:19:11The education watchdog, Ofsted, has told Breakfast there has been
1:19:11 > 1:19:13little progress in providing things like education,
1:19:13 > 1:19:15health, and care for young people once they get to 19,
1:19:15 > 1:19:18with parents often describing the system as a cliff edge.
1:19:18 > 1:19:23Our disability affairs correspondent Nikki Fox has been finding out more.
1:19:23 > 1:19:26Did you have something to say?
1:19:26 > 1:19:29Ruth loves being at this specialist college.
1:19:29 > 1:19:33What colour is this, Ruth?
1:19:33 > 1:19:42But it has been tough getting to this point.
1:19:42 > 1:19:44Lovely, using your words...
1:19:44 > 1:19:47Her dad had to fight to get her an education,
1:19:47 > 1:19:48health and care plan.
1:19:48 > 1:19:50Introduced three years ago as part of major reforms,
1:19:50 > 1:19:53they were designed to help children and young people,
1:19:53 > 1:19:55like Ruth, up to the age of 25.
1:19:55 > 1:20:02It took tribunals and around two years to get one.
1:20:02 > 1:20:05During that time, Ruth missed a vital part in her course in speech
1:20:05 > 1:20:06and language therapy.
1:20:06 > 1:20:09She is 24 now, so she has only got one year left.
1:20:09 > 1:20:10Hello.
1:20:10 > 1:20:12Life with disabilities is a fight.
1:20:12 > 1:20:13The parents find it very hard.
1:20:13 > 1:20:23Mum is extremely worried.
1:20:23 > 1:20:25I once said, many years ago to the social worker,
1:20:25 > 1:20:28when she was small, if something happens to me,
1:20:28 > 1:20:30put her in the grave with me.
1:20:30 > 1:20:33And I still feel that way, because I do not actually feel that,
1:20:33 > 1:20:36in the past 15 years, we've actually made much
1:20:36 > 1:20:38of an improvement, as far as services are concerned,
1:20:38 > 1:20:41for these vulnerable kids.
1:20:41 > 1:20:44After recent inspections, Ofsted has raised concerns
1:20:44 > 1:20:47about a lack of help and resources for students once they reach
1:20:47 > 1:20:51the age of 19.
1:20:51 > 1:20:55This report also says the transfer to EHC plans has had a negative
1:20:55 > 1:20:57impact on many young people's lives.
1:20:57 > 1:21:00Wildlife expert Chris Packham wasn't diagnosed with Asperger's
1:21:00 > 1:21:04until he was in his 40s.
1:21:04 > 1:21:07He has had a a successful career, and he is convinced that access
1:21:07 > 1:21:18to education is key.
1:21:18 > 1:21:21The highly gifted, and the people that find things difficult,
1:21:21 > 1:21:22we can't ignore them.
1:21:22 > 1:21:23They're worth the investment.
1:21:23 > 1:21:25Everyone deserves a fair, proper education.
1:21:25 > 1:21:27That's what should be the underlying principle of our society,
1:21:27 > 1:21:30and at the moment, they're not getting it.
1:21:30 > 1:21:32It is karaoke afternoon at this specialist training centre
1:21:32 > 1:21:34for people with learning disabilities.
1:21:34 > 1:21:38Its aim - to get talented young people like Ben Hanson a diploma
1:21:38 > 1:21:39and a job.
1:21:39 > 1:21:42He is on a placement which he hopes will lead to paid work.
1:21:42 > 1:21:45So you're working at a hotel. Yes.
1:21:45 > 1:21:48What are you doing at the hotel?
1:21:52 > 1:21:53Do you have a dream? Yes.
1:21:53 > 1:22:02What is your dream?
1:22:02 > 1:22:04Yeah, my dream is a posh hotel.
1:22:04 > 1:22:06You want to work in a posh hotel? Yes.
1:22:06 > 1:22:09But, with only around 6% of people with learning disabilities
1:22:09 > 1:22:11in employment, despite his energy and enthusiasm, the odds
1:22:11 > 1:22:12are against him.
1:22:12 > 1:22:14I think the whole thing is difficult.
1:22:14 > 1:22:17Post-18, one father described it to me as jumping off a cliff.
1:22:17 > 1:22:23There's no understanding that lifelong learning disability
1:22:23 > 1:22:32is there, that it's with you for life.
1:22:32 > 1:22:34And the education, health and care plan -
1:22:34 > 1:22:36well, fine, but that finishes at 25.
1:22:36 > 1:22:36Then what?
1:22:36 > 1:22:37Is college fun?
1:22:37 > 1:22:38Yes!
1:22:38 > 1:22:41Councils say there isn't enough money or facilities to offer support
1:22:41 > 1:22:44up to the age of 25, but the Government says it has
1:22:44 > 1:22:48recently put in an extra £45 million to help families of young people
1:22:48 > 1:22:49with special educational needs.
1:22:49 > 1:22:51All Ruth's parents want is for her education to continue
1:22:51 > 1:22:55for as long as possible, to give her the best shot at living
1:22:55 > 1:22:57a fulfilled, happy life.
1:22:57 > 1:23:02Our disability correspondent Nikki Fox joins us now.
1:23:02 > 1:23:09We saw Ruth there, and the concern her parents have over what happens
1:23:09 > 1:23:14when she turns 25, what care will be provided. What does the future hold
1:23:14 > 1:23:20for Ruth?Well, I think if Ruth's lovely parents could do anything it
1:23:20 > 1:23:24would be to keep her in that specialist college for as long as
1:23:24 > 1:23:28possible. It was there, she is thriving, she is happy, she is
1:23:28 > 1:23:31learning to improve her communication skills, and that kind
1:23:31 > 1:23:35of stuff is really important for people with quite complex, profound
1:23:35 > 1:23:38disabilities, to improve communication so that they lead a
1:23:38 > 1:23:45happy and safe life in the future. At Gilbert and Geraldine represent a
1:23:45 > 1:23:51lot of parents of young children like Ruth because it is an ongoing
1:23:51 > 1:23:56stress. Gilbert said to us there, when I die, put her in the grave
1:23:56 > 1:23:59with me, what is going to happen? Because really, when she leaves that
1:23:59 > 1:24:04place in a year's time, they will have to fight again. They fought for
1:24:04 > 1:24:08the education, health and care plan to get her there, she missed
1:24:08 > 1:24:12education but she is there now. She has one year left and they will have
1:24:12 > 1:24:15to fight to get her to somehow live independently in some kind of
1:24:15 > 1:24:20supported living, hopefully, if that is an option. But will she end up in
1:24:20 > 1:24:23a residential care setting? All these thoughts will be going
1:24:23 > 1:24:26through, and they are getting older now, you'll vote and Geraldine, and
1:24:26 > 1:24:33they want her to be as happy as she can possibly be -- Gilbert and
1:24:33 > 1:24:38Geraldine. She needs to live as independently and happy as possible.
1:24:38 > 1:24:43You also introduced us to Ben, whose dream, he says, well, one is to
1:24:43 > 1:24:49work, and the dream job, work in a posh hotel, was his phrase. What is
1:24:49 > 1:24:54his situation? How is it going to work out?Here's on a placement at
1:24:54 > 1:24:59the moment. He is not getting paid, but that is what he wants to do. But
1:24:59 > 1:25:04the figures for people with learning disability like Ben are shockingly
1:25:04 > 1:25:07low, at 6%, and that is a figure that has actually decreased
1:25:07 > 1:25:14overtime. So for someone like Ben, the odds are really stacked against
1:25:14 > 1:25:18him, but he desperately wants to work. That is why Rosa Monckton, who
1:25:18 > 1:25:22you saw in our peace, has set up a centre to try and get people with
1:25:22 > 1:25:27disabilities in employment. There is an argument that people with
1:25:27 > 1:25:31disabilities are forgotten when it comes to the targets.Because it is
1:25:31 > 1:25:37too difficult to deal with an easier to ignore?Some would argue it is
1:25:37 > 1:25:41quite easy. Supported employment is a great option. For someone like
1:25:41 > 1:25:45Ben, he would have somebody to get him started in work, somebody he
1:25:45 > 1:25:50could chat to if he has any problems, to take the pressure off
1:25:50 > 1:25:54the employer. Some would argue it is an easy solution, but it costs
1:25:54 > 1:26:00money, and maybe that is why. People do definitely feel forgotten in that
1:26:00 > 1:26:06figure when we talk about getting people with disabilities into work.
1:26:06 > 1:26:12Learning disabilities have their own problems.Thank you very much, and
1:26:12 > 1:26:15we will be speaking to the Work and Pensions Secretary later on this
1:26:15 > 1:26:19morning. And you have been getting in touch with us all week about
1:26:19 > 1:26:23this, it has really touched a nerve with our viewers.
1:26:23 > 1:26:26If you would like to get in touch with us about your stories,
1:26:26 > 1:26:28e-mail bbcbreakfast@bbc.co.uk, or tweet us using the hashtag
1:26:28 > 1:26:35#BBCSend.
1:26:35 > 1:26:36You are watching Breakfast.
1:26:36 > 1:26:39Still to come: For decades, Christmas cards were as important
1:26:39 > 1:26:41to the festive season as turkey and presents.
1:26:41 > 1:26:45But when it is faster, and free, to send your greetings by social
1:26:45 > 1:26:47media, we will be asking if the tradition could finally
1:26:47 > 1:26:55be dying out.
1:26:55 > 1:30:19Do you have your Christmas card list ready?Oh yes.I hope
1:30:19 > 1:30:24Bye for now.
1:30:26 > 1:30:29Hello - this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga
1:30:29 > 1:30:30Munchetty.
1:30:30 > 1:30:42We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment,
1:30:42 > 1:30:46President Trump has told Theresa May that she should pay more attention
1:30:46 > 1:30:49to tackling terrorism in the UK, rather than criticising him.
1:30:49 > 1:30:51The message was delivered in a tweet last night
1:30:51 > 1:30:54after Downing Street criticised the US President for sharing
1:30:54 > 1:30:56anti-Muslim videos posted by a British far-right group
1:30:56 > 1:30:57on social media.
1:30:57 > 1:31:00The row has placed more pressure on the Prime Minister to cancel
1:31:00 > 1:31:02Mr Trump's state visit to the UK next year.
1:31:02 > 1:31:05The United States has called on the international community
1:31:05 > 1:31:08to sever ties with North Korea - it follows the country's latest
1:31:08 > 1:31:09ballistic missile test.
1:31:09 > 1:31:11North Korean state media claimed that Wednesday's missile
1:31:11 > 1:31:14launch was the most powerful in the country's history.
1:31:14 > 1:31:16At an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council,
1:31:16 > 1:31:19Washington's Ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley warned of dire
1:31:19 > 1:31:22consequences if war were to break out on the Korean peninsula.
1:31:22 > 1:31:25The dictator of North Korea made a choice yesterday that brings
1:31:25 > 1:31:30the world closer to war, not farther from it.
1:31:30 > 1:31:33We have never sought war with North Korea and still today,
1:31:33 > 1:31:44we do not seek it.
1:31:44 > 1:31:47If war does come, it will be because of continued acts
1:31:47 > 1:31:50of aggression like we witnessed yesterday and if war comes,
1:31:50 > 1:31:53make no mistake, the North Korean regime will be utterly destroyed.
1:31:53 > 1:31:56The government is setting out plans to get a million more disabled
1:31:56 > 1:32:02people into work over the next 10 years.
1:32:02 > 1:32:05Less than half of the UK's disabled population is currently
1:32:05 > 1:32:08in work and last year only eight per cent of businesses employed
1:32:08 > 1:32:09a person with a disability.
1:32:09 > 1:32:12Charities say progress from previous, similar schemes has
1:32:12 > 1:32:12been too slow.
1:32:12 > 1:32:15Scientists say they have made an "incredibly important" advance
1:32:15 > 1:32:16in the prevention of migraine.
1:32:16 > 1:32:18The results of two clinical trials
1:32:18 > 1:32:20published in the New England Journal of Medicine
1:32:20 > 1:32:23showed that injections of antibodies can be used to neutralise a chemical
1:32:23 > 1:32:25which is believed to trigger severe headaches.
1:32:25 > 1:32:27Around half of patients reported a 50% reduction
1:32:27 > 1:32:30in the number of attacks they had each month.
1:32:30 > 1:32:32Litter on beaches rose by 10% this year,
1:32:32 > 1:32:36with a fifth of the rubbish made up of on-the-go food and drinks items
1:32:36 > 1:32:38such as cups, foil wrappers and bottles.
1:32:38 > 1:32:40The Marine Conservation Society is now calling
1:32:40 > 1:32:43on the Government to put a levy on single-use items handed over
1:32:43 > 1:32:47for free like plastic cutlery, straws and sandwich packaging.
1:32:47 > 1:32:53Coming up on the programme, Matt will have the weather.
1:32:53 > 1:33:06First, goals.
1:33:06 > 1:33:13What are the best goals of the season. It got a thumbs up from Sam
1:33:13 > 1:33:17Allardyce, who will take over at Everton. I'm surprised it didn't get
1:33:17 > 1:33:17more.
1:33:17 > 1:33:20Everton impressed their new manager Sam Allardyce but the night belonged
1:33:20 > 1:33:23to one man, Wayne Rooney scoring his first Everton hat trick,
1:33:23 > 1:33:26his third, he says, one of the best goals he's ever scored.
1:33:26 > 1:33:29And it's hard to disagree, when you're popping them
1:33:29 > 1:33:30in from the halfway line.
1:33:30 > 1:33:50And it gave departing interim manager David Unsworth a big win.
1:33:50 > 1:33:53A great hat-trick, a great display from Wayne.
1:33:53 > 1:33:56He is captain and captain for a reason, going from a top
1:33:56 > 1:33:59environment after a top spell, tonight, we spoke about the bad run
1:33:59 > 1:34:02having to come to an end, it doesn't last forever
1:34:02 > 1:34:06and being a real man does if you can stand up there and fight
1:34:06 > 1:34:07in times of trouble.
1:34:07 > 1:34:08in times of trouble.
1:34:08 > 1:34:11From great goals to important ones, Raheem Sterling's 96th-minute winner
1:34:11 > 1:34:13against Southampton extending manchester City's winning run.
1:34:13 > 1:34:211-1 going into stoppage time, he curled this effort
1:34:21 > 1:34:23into the top corner.
1:34:23 > 1:34:31And you might have thought he'd scored from the halfway line,
1:34:31 > 1:34:32wheeling away in delight.
1:34:32 > 1:34:37It's a club-record 12th-successive Premier League win..
1:34:37 > 1:34:37-- win.
1:34:37 > 1:34:39And Pep Guardiola was pleased.
1:34:39 > 1:34:41Fourth-placed Arsenal scored five against Huddersfield -
1:34:41 > 1:34:44neat play for Olivier Giroud to hammer home one of his two goals.
1:34:44 > 1:34:47And Mo Salah matched him, the Premier League's leading

1:35:41 > 1:35:42Something I've always enjoyed, excuse me.
1:35:42 > 1:35:47When someone is trying to get under my skin,
1:35:47 > 1:35:50not just in cricket but in all walks of life, it makes me more
1:35:50 > 1:35:53determined to succeed so it is something from a personal
1:35:53 > 1:35:56point of view that excites me and will drive me

1:36:45 > 1:36:49A big win for them.
1:36:49 > 1:36:54We will talk to Mark Foster in a moment. This week, he made a
1:36:54 > 1:36:58statement in relation to his sexuality and saying he is gay for
1:36:58 > 1:37:03the first time. Such a big thing for sport, feeling comfortable in their
1:37:03 > 1:37:08own skin and performing better.The environment you work in, how
1:37:08 > 1:37:14comfortable are you? We known football, how many open gay
1:37:14 > 1:37:18footballers are playing in the Premier league? Do they feel
1:37:18 > 1:37:24comfortable coming out? Is the environment as well.You as one of
1:37:24 > 1:37:28the most successful British swimmers of all time and we get to talk to
1:37:28 > 1:37:34him now from his home in Hertfordshire.Good morning. It is
1:37:34 > 1:37:40Naga here, can you hear me? We were just talking about being comfortable
1:37:40 > 1:37:44in your own skin and sports people being comfortable in their own skin
1:37:44 > 1:37:50timing with your decision this week to make public your sexuality.Why
1:37:50 > 1:37:57did you do it? One of the reasons why I have got this moustache, it's
1:37:57 > 1:38:04not something on the regular, it is to do with Movember, I am raising
1:38:04 > 1:38:08awareness and I realised over the last year, I had a big year, my dad
1:38:08 > 1:38:14died, I realised I hadn't spoken to him for an -- an awful lot and other
1:38:14 > 1:38:19things in my personal life. I went to some counselling and reflected a
1:38:19 > 1:38:23bit and it's all about speaking, because a lot of people hold things
1:38:23 > 1:38:28in and with Movember, there are 6000 men every year, men and women, 80%
1:38:28 > 1:38:33are men who take their own life and it's not all linked to being gay but
1:38:33 > 1:38:37at the same time people do struggle with things and 70, when I was on
1:38:37 > 1:38:42the block and competing, at home in my personal life, I was out to
1:38:42 > 1:38:47friends and family and close network and when I went to work, I never
1:38:47 > 1:38:55took it with me. Potentially, and I know now looking back some of it is
1:38:55 > 1:39:00foggy, there was a tiny bit of that which was potentially holding me
1:39:00 > 1:39:06back.You mean performance wise or personally?I think both.
1:39:06 > 1:39:14Performance wise. It's like going to work with half of view. Some level,
1:39:14 > 1:39:19I got good with dancing around the truth. What are you doing on the
1:39:19 > 1:39:24weekend? I'm just going to see friends and family. I never shared
1:39:24 > 1:39:28anything with my swimming colleagues. The only one I did
1:39:28 > 1:39:33confide in was by coach. If I was having a bad time, I had somebody to
1:39:33 > 1:39:41talk to. It was important to me to share with someone then. It took a
1:39:41 > 1:39:48long time until the age of 30. One of my first swimming team-mates. And
1:39:48 > 1:39:55when it came to being, some of my life is in the public, I got used to
1:39:55 > 1:40:01dancing around the edges and saying half-truths.How important do you
1:40:01 > 1:40:04think it is for a sportsperson to reveal that side of their personal
1:40:04 > 1:40:13life? For the fans, but also the sport?I didn't think it's just
1:40:13 > 1:40:17sports people. It is people in general. This is not a question of,
1:40:17 > 1:40:23if you are gay, come out. Everyone at the right time. I am 47 and I've
1:40:23 > 1:40:30been retired now fourth nine years after representing Britain. It took
1:40:30 > 1:40:35me a long time to become comfortable with it in the outside world so to
1:40:35 > 1:40:41speak. I suppose the analogy is, it is strength in Numbers, having role
1:40:41 > 1:40:48models. I went to an event last night and we shared an awful lot of
1:40:48 > 1:40:52stories, and similar stories about our time in sport. Not being fully
1:40:52 > 1:40:56present. Anyone would know if you are not fully present in whatever
1:40:56 > 1:41:02you are doing, part of your brain, the brain is a complex thing, it is
1:41:02 > 1:41:06always try to filter stop in the background, don't mention this or
1:41:06 > 1:41:11act in a certain way but if you can be yourself, then you get more out
1:41:11 > 1:41:17of yourself.You spent a lot of time with Colin Jackson. One of the
1:41:17 > 1:41:20things that has come out in your recent interview is that you weren't
1:41:20 > 1:41:24open with each other about your sexuality. When you look back on
1:41:24 > 1:41:37that now... No. Had he think that came about?We both got used to
1:41:37 > 1:41:45hiding away our personal lives. In fairness, what happened was, I used
1:41:45 > 1:41:50to train in Bath and these to watch him work with the athletes. I
1:41:50 > 1:41:57suppose that to me was probably, I wanted to be away from the swimmers
1:41:57 > 1:42:05so I did not have to share or see that much of me. Friend of mine at
1:42:05 > 1:42:09that time, Ross Baillie, died of anaphylactic shock. It was a
1:42:09 > 1:42:16horrendous experience. He can't have moved in with me for two years. We
1:42:16 > 1:42:20probably spent two weeks together at the same time. But we were very
1:42:20 > 1:42:31close friends. For me, he knew my partner, came to the house and knew
1:42:31 > 1:42:37my personal relationship. But I never spoke about it. I never wanted
1:42:37 > 1:42:43to dig into his personal life. I got used to not asking questions about
1:42:43 > 1:42:47other people. I did not want people asking questions at me. In sport,
1:42:47 > 1:42:55its masculinity, you think growing up that to me, being gay for --
1:42:55 > 1:43:00being gay was wrong. When I first fell in love with somebody, I learnt
1:43:00 > 1:43:09that love was wrong. That's not right. That came from generations of
1:43:09 > 1:43:14that's what I learnt as a child. I think the both of us, we never
1:43:14 > 1:43:19really shared our true selves because you are in fear of being
1:43:19 > 1:43:25vulnerable. I think in life, there is love and fear. You are either in
1:43:25 > 1:43:30love and happy or in fear of certain things. It's difficult to be
1:43:30 > 1:43:34vulnerable with other people.I'm thinking back on moments. He said
1:43:34 > 1:43:37perhaps the media skirted around the issue of your sexuality. I'm
1:43:37 > 1:43:43thinking back to when you are commentating with Rebecca Adlington.
1:43:43 > 1:43:48Much of -- much was made of her squeezing your knee and speculation
1:43:48 > 1:43:52about your relationship. How did that make you feel? Was that more
1:43:52 > 1:43:57pressure in terms of how much you could keep your life private?Yeah,
1:43:57 > 1:44:05I suppose the me, in a good way, it was another way of trying to nudge
1:44:05 > 1:44:11me out, so to speak. I suppose if I didn't spend a lot of my life in the
1:44:11 > 1:44:15public eye, that would not have been a problem. I suppose that was
1:44:15 > 1:44:22another example of people just assuming that I am straight or it
1:44:22 > 1:44:28was the paper trying to, I don't know, Becky and Mark having a thing,
1:44:28 > 1:44:34gossip and titillation. Becky knows me and she knows my other half. We
1:44:34 > 1:44:40laughed it off and at the same time, it was quite shocking that that
1:44:40 > 1:44:45became a news story when the Olympic Games was going on behind us in the
1:44:45 > 1:44:52distance. We are very good friends. I winced at the time. I would have
1:44:52 > 1:44:59gone, that was very flattering. And I am gay and that is an opportunity,
1:44:59 > 1:45:02certain opportunities have come up for me around the 2012 Olympics,
1:45:02 > 1:45:09strictly come dancing, people were intruding into my private life and I
1:45:09 > 1:45:15wish to me, looking back, there were certain times, this is who I am and
1:45:15 > 1:45:19I was more open and honest then them this wouldn't have been an issue and
1:45:19 > 1:45:23the only issue is, it's not about being gay, there are a lot of gay
1:45:23 > 1:45:28people out there, but it's more to do with, Fernee, if could just be
1:45:28 > 1:45:33yourself and not have too carry around half-truths and half lives.
1:45:33 > 1:45:38There is this big problem with mental health. Speaking more with
1:45:38 > 1:45:42friends or family, do be a bit more vulnerable and it makes things an
1:45:42 > 1:45:46awful lot easier because you've not got this voice in your head all the
1:45:46 > 1:45:52time saying this is not normal.
1:45:52 > 1:45:56It is a very positive message you are putting out in terms of mental
1:45:56 > 1:46:01health, and it is good to see you are in a good place as well. Thank
1:46:01 > 1:46:06you for being with us on BBC Breakfast.
1:46:06 > 1:46:11Here is Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
1:46:11 > 1:46:11Here is Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
1:46:11 > 1:46:17It is a little bit nippy, Matt.A little bit nippy and some more. For
1:46:17 > 1:46:23most of you, we start the day a little bit frosty. It is dry and
1:46:23 > 1:46:27sunny, many will stay dry and sunny all day long but the picture behind
1:46:27 > 1:46:32me shows it is not the same everywhere. A bit of Saint Andrews
1:46:32 > 1:46:36Day snow and it is not confined to northern Scotland. This is the view
1:46:36 > 1:46:39in Scarborough. Eastern parts of North Yorks, East Yorkshire and
1:46:39 > 1:46:43eastern parts of Yorkshire as well, so there will be problems on the
1:46:43 > 1:46:47roads for one or two back. I see on the roads were northern and eastern
1:46:47 > 1:46:50areas, and where we see rain showers in the night, clear skies in
1:46:50 > 1:46:54between. Parts of Devon and Cornwall will have rained through the
1:46:54 > 1:46:59morning. In between, most of us dry and sunny after a frosty start. It
1:46:59 > 1:47:02will still feel cold into the afternoon. That northerly wind
1:47:02 > 1:47:05really does have a buy to it today and while temperatures on the
1:47:05 > 1:47:09thermometer is reached two or three degrees across parts of Scotland, it
1:47:09 > 1:47:14will fill sub zero in northern and eastern areas. Sleet and snow
1:47:14 > 1:47:18flurries continuing. Lots of sunshine around and a few showers
1:47:18 > 1:47:21for Northern Ireland into the afternoon. Staying dry the northern
1:47:21 > 1:47:24England, but down these eastern counties, the showers on the coastal
1:47:24 > 1:47:30strip. I 3pm they will be further inland. A mixture of rain with some
1:47:30 > 1:47:34hail and thunder on the coast. A little bit of sleet and snow inland.
1:47:34 > 1:47:38Clouding over in south-east England. Much of western England and Wales
1:47:38 > 1:47:41should be fine but Pembrokeshire down towards Cornwall will have some
1:47:41 > 1:47:45showers by the end of the afternoon. They drift offshore by the end of
1:47:45 > 1:47:51the night and with the wind change by the evening, the risk of ice to
1:47:51 > 1:47:54take us into Friday morning's Russia. These are the temperatures
1:47:54 > 1:47:59to start your Friday morning. Most towns and cities around the freezing
1:47:59 > 1:48:03mark in the countryside. In rural Scotland it could be as low as -10.
1:48:03 > 1:48:08Today could be the coldest day of the week, but staying cold tomorrow.
1:48:08 > 1:48:12Icy winds and eastern England becoming confined to East Anglia and
1:48:12 > 1:48:16the south-east, as do the showers, mainly rain showers by the end of
1:48:16 > 1:48:20the afternoon. Much of England and Wales having a dry and bright day
1:48:20 > 1:48:23tomorrow. Cardiff Scotland and Northern Ireland. Signs of a change
1:48:23 > 1:48:27as temperatures lived across north-west Scotland. That is because
1:48:27 > 1:48:31as this high-pressure drifts its way southwards we are bringing in winds
1:48:31 > 1:48:34of the Atlantic instead of the Arctic. So the message for this
1:48:34 > 1:48:40weekend, slowly, and I emphasise the word slowly, coming less chilly.
1:48:40 > 1:48:44Still a raw day across England and Wales, a little bit of sunshine east
1:48:44 > 1:48:48of higher ground. Patchy rain and drizzle in the west but around eight
1:48:48 > 1:48:52to 10 degrees in Scotland and Northern Ireland, and the milder air
1:48:52 > 1:48:55reaching the coast by the time we hit Sunday after some damp and
1:48:55 > 1:49:01drizzly weather overnight. And it gets colder again next week.Have
1:49:01 > 1:49:06you had your Breakfast this morning? I haven't yet, no. I haven't.
1:49:06 > 1:49:08you had your Breakfast this morning? I haven't yet, no. I haven't.We are
1:49:08 > 1:49:11talking Breakfast now, talking Breakfast cereals.Well, for me it
1:49:11 > 1:49:17is more like it afternoon, I should be having lunch.Nice pie and chips,
1:49:17 > 1:49:30to keep you warm.The story is about Kellogg's, and cereal.Sugar content
1:49:30 > 1:49:33particularly, and Kellogg's have made some moves in the past, and
1:49:33 > 1:49:37they are making more moves today now, adjusting some of the sugar
1:49:37 > 1:49:39content in some cereals, but not all of them.
1:49:39 > 1:49:40Morning, everybody.
1:49:40 > 1:49:43Chances are, at some point, you will have had some
1:49:43 > 1:49:47in your cupboards at home.
1:49:47 > 1:49:50But Kellogg's, like all the major cereal brands, saw a big drop
1:49:50 > 1:49:51in sales of cereal.
1:49:51 > 1:49:54They are making some changes, cutting the sugar in Coco Pops,
1:49:54 > 1:49:56getting rid of the Ricicles brands.
1:49:56 > 1:49:58But long-term favourites like Frosties are untouched.
1:49:58 > 1:50:01Many still think there is too much sugar in our cereal portions,
1:50:01 > 1:50:07one of those being nutritionist Dr Anna Robins.
1:50:07 > 1:50:11When you take that 30 g serving, there is approximately a third of
1:50:11 > 1:50:17that total added sugar in that one setting, so in that on-ball. So by
1:50:17 > 1:50:22the time the child has finished its it has already consumed a third of
1:50:22 > 1:50:26the total upper limit of added sugars per day. I think any move to
1:50:26 > 1:50:30be helping the general public to make healthier choices is a good
1:50:30 > 1:50:34one, and the changes that are taking place, while it is a positive step,
1:50:34 > 1:50:39I don't think they go far enough to be making these cereals are healthy
1:50:39 > 1:50:40option in the morning.
1:50:40 > 1:50:45With me now is Oli Morton, managing director of Kellogg's UK.
1:50:45 > 1:50:54Just to kick off, you are changing your Coco Pops level, and do you
1:50:54 > 1:50:58think children have been consuming too much sugar at breakfasttime?
1:50:58 > 1:51:03What we are announcing today is a big overhaul of our cereal range,
1:51:03 > 1:51:07and we have worked really hard to get on seven out of ten of the
1:51:07 > 1:51:09nation's reckless tables in the morning. That consumers are saying
1:51:09 > 1:51:13they want to make healthier choices in the morning, but importantly they
1:51:13 > 1:51:17want products to taste great. Our response is exactly what we are
1:51:17 > 1:51:21doing, and there are two parts to that. The first part we're doing is
1:51:21 > 1:51:25a big sugar overhaul in our children's product. Coco Pops will
1:51:25 > 1:51:30be a 40% reduction in sugar levels while keeping the same great taste.
1:51:30 > 1:51:34Is that because consumers, parents, are thinking there is too much sugar
1:51:34 > 1:51:38in these cereals, so you are adapting to that, or is it because
1:51:38 > 1:51:42you have said children are eating too much sugar at breakfasttime?It
1:51:42 > 1:51:46is what consumers are telling us, which is that they want to make his
1:51:46 > 1:51:52healthier choices. If you take the Coco Pops example of a 40% reduction
1:51:52 > 1:51:56in sugar, that will be 17% sugar in those cereals.It still seems like
1:51:56 > 1:52:02quite a lot.If you look at that from the government's perspective,
1:52:02 > 1:52:09it doesn't qualify as a higher sugar level. By keeping the sugar levels
1:52:09 > 1:52:18down, we are able to focus on the key things in these products, from
1:52:18 > 1:52:22B-vitamins to iron.Clearly there has been a movement from consumers
1:52:22 > 1:52:28towards products they think are healthier, yet you have Coco Pops
1:52:28 > 1:52:35and Rice Krispies which you are making changes to, but Frosties,
1:52:35 > 1:52:39they are still there. More than a third of every cereal bowl is sugar,
1:52:39 > 1:52:44and you are not making any changes to that.What we are talking about
1:52:44 > 1:52:47today is the biggest change in a decade. To reduce Coco Pops's levels
1:52:47 > 1:52:51by 40% has taken five years of work and £5 million of investment,
1:52:51 > 1:52:56because the crucial part is you have to keep the same great taste.Why
1:52:56 > 1:53:02couldn't you have, five years ago, with Frosties, Crunchy Nut
1:53:02 > 1:53:09cornflakes, because consumers want less sugar at breakfasttime.Well,
1:53:09 > 1:53:13let me just talk about Frosties, two of the interesting things we are
1:53:13 > 1:53:21doing. Firstly, Ricicles, so Captain Rick will be no more. We don't
1:53:21 > 1:53:24actually see that that fits with consumers' lifestyles are moving
1:53:24 > 1:53:29forward. With Frosties, a fact you may not know, for our generations
1:53:29 > 1:53:34who grew up with these products, we haven't position that towards kids
1:53:34 > 1:53:38dance 2010. The majority of people who eat Frosties are actually
1:53:38 > 1:53:45adults. -- since 2010.Is this about kids, or adults?This is about us
1:53:45 > 1:53:49responding to consumer needs. For us, the biggest move we can make and
1:53:49 > 1:53:53one we're really proud of is to make sure get those sugar levels right in
1:53:53 > 1:53:59the first place. The other part, as adults talk about, is sugar. They
1:53:59 > 1:54:03are asking is about health and that same great taste, and we will bring
1:54:03 > 1:54:07out a whole range of products to do that.One thing which has had a lot
1:54:07 > 1:54:11of growth over recent years is granola. A lot of people will see it
1:54:11 > 1:54:14as being potentially a bit healthier, especially the way it is
1:54:14 > 1:54:22marketed. A lot your granola products will have much more sugar
1:54:22 > 1:54:30in them than your Coco Pops. How does that work?For us, there is a
1:54:30 > 1:54:33great thing about Breakfast where it is a lot about perception versus
1:54:33 > 1:54:37reality, and across our cereals we are very open about a sugar levels,
1:54:37 > 1:54:41and these changes are a big part of transparency from us, to talk about
1:54:41 > 1:54:46these sugar levels. What is also crucial, taking the granola example,
1:54:46 > 1:54:50we started this new range 90 years ago, founding the business on plant
1:54:50 > 1:54:54-based simple food, healthy nutrition. We will meet needs that
1:54:54 > 1:55:03consumers are talking about...So they will have to be new brands.
1:55:03 > 1:55:09Because flexatarian, obedient and organic.Is there a point at the end
1:55:09 > 1:55:13of the day when, if you are an adult over 35 and you want your cereal to
1:55:13 > 1:55:18have more than a third of it as sugar, you should be allowed to have
1:55:18 > 1:55:21it. Why should you reduce your sugar levels because other people think
1:55:21 > 1:55:24you shouldn't have it?What consumers play back to us is that
1:55:24 > 1:55:27some find it really important, on taste, others find health really
1:55:27 > 1:55:33important. So for those that want taste and sugar, that is about how
1:55:33 > 1:55:37we get that right for them, and do that. The really important thing is
1:55:37 > 1:55:41you have to keep taste right. The piece we are really proud of,
1:55:41 > 1:55:44because it is a big emotional decision for consumers to make, is
1:55:44 > 1:55:49when we come through with a 40% reduction in sugar in Coco Pops,
1:55:49 > 1:55:53they still taste great.Thank you very much for coming in this
1:55:53 > 1:55:58morning. Very interesting one, to see how consumers will change,
1:55:58 > 1:56:06because we have seen huge changes in Breakfast taste.I wonder, would
1:56:06 > 1:56:11Kelloggs UK be willing to sacrifice sales in order to ensure that we as
1:56:11 > 1:56:15a nation are healthier? A lot of it comes down to you starting our days.
1:56:15 > 1:56:21I think the two can go hand. Firstly, the big decision not to do
1:56:21 > 1:56:28Ricicles, that is a hit in sales but when
1:56:28 > 1:56:29Ricicles, that is a hit in sales but consumers tell us they want sugar
1:56:29 > 1:56:35levels to be lower, that goes hand in hand. We are actually in excess
1:56:35 > 1:56:39of 10% growth at the minute, so it is about keeping on train with the
1:56:39 > 1:56:43consumer and keeping ahead of it, to make sure we do that right.
1:56:43 > 2:00:03We will be back with the headlines in just a few minutes.
2:00:03 > 2:00:06Now, though, it is back to Charlie and Naga.

2:00:22 > 2:00:29of posts by the far-right group Britain First.

2:02:14 > 2:02:16First, our main story.
2:02:16 > 2:02:19In a blunt tweet President Trump has told Theresa May that she should pay
2:02:19 > 2:02:22more attention to tackling terrorism in the UK, rather
2:02:22 > 2:02:25than criticising him.
2:02:25 > 2:02:28The message was delivered last night after Downing Street
2:02:28 > 2:02:31criticised the US President for sharing anti-Muslim videos
2:02:31 > 2:02:35posted by a British far-right group on social media.
2:02:35 > 2:02:37The row has placed more pressure on the Prime Minister
2:02:37 > 2:02:40to cancel Mr Trump's state visit to the UK next year.
2:02:40 > 2:02:42Our North America Correspondent Laura Bicker has more.
2:02:42 > 2:02:46They may have held hands once but this special relationship is being
2:02:46 > 2:02:53tested by a series of presidential tweets, first from the group called
2:02:53 > 2:02:57Britain First, Donald Trump retweeted three inflammatory videos
2:02:57 > 2:03:01to his 43 million followers, the first claimed incorrectly to show a
2:03:01 > 2:03:05Muslim migrant attacking a man on crutches. When challenged, the White
2:03:05 > 2:03:10House said the videos might not be real but the threat was.Theresa May
2:03:10 > 2:03:14and a lot of other world leaders across the world know that these are
2:03:14 > 2:03:18real threats, that we have to talk about. I think Europe's seen that a
2:03:18 > 2:03:21lot first hand and something the president wants to continue to talk
2:03:21 > 2:03:26about and continue to make sure that we are dealing with.Theresa May is
2:03:26 > 2:03:29on a tour of the Middle East. But her official spokesman said the
2:03:29 > 2:03:34president had been wrong to share the posts. It was that condemnation
2:03:34 > 2:03:38which prompted a Twitter outburst from Donald Trump's account. He told
2:03:38 > 2:03:43Theresa May not to focus on him, but to focus on the destructive Islamic
2:03:43 > 2:03:49terrorism taking place within the UK. We are doing just fine, he said.
2:03:49 > 2:03:52The President has caused diplomatic headaches for the UK several times
2:03:52 > 2:03:58already this year. From backing Nigel Farage as an ambassador to
2:03:58 > 2:04:01Washington to attacking the London Mayor Sadiq Khan all from his
2:04:01 > 2:04:05favourite social media platform. It may be a show of strength for his
2:04:05 > 2:04:10supporters, but it may also weaken his position abroad.
2:04:10 > 2:04:13Let's get the latest on this now from our political
2:04:13 > 2:04:16correspondent Alex Forsyth, who is travelling with
2:04:16 > 2:04:23the Prime Minister and is in Jordan for us this morning.
2:04:23 > 2:04:31What are you hearing about this?We have not had a lot from the Prime
2:04:31 > 2:04:36Minister directly to speak frankly, we have the rebuke from Downing
2:04:36 > 2:04:39Street yesterday saying Donald Trump shouldn't have tweeted what he did
2:04:39 > 2:04:43about Britain First but that wasn't issued by the Prime Minister.
2:04:43 > 2:04:51However, Theresa May's due to make this trip to Jordan today, there'll
2:04:51 > 2:04:55be business leaders and the focus is expected to be on trade and the
2:04:55 > 2:05:01economy. You can expect the Q & A session to be dominated by this
2:05:01 > 2:05:04response from Donald Trump because senior figures in the Conservative
2:05:04 > 2:05:09Party are becoming more and more outspoken about this. The
2:05:09 > 2:05:13Communities Secretary Sajid Javid tweeted yesterday saying President
2:05:13 > 2:05:27Trump endorsed the view of the hate organisation that hates people.
2:05:27 > 2:05:31Other senior conservatives say he was right to say something. Liz
2:05:31 > 2:05:35Truss, the leader of the Scottish Conservatives Ruth Davidson, and
2:05:35 > 2:05:39Jeremy Corbyn is calling on the government to condemn Donald Trump
2:05:39 > 2:05:42in the strongest possible terms. The Lib Dems are calling on the
2:05:42 > 2:05:47government to rescind Donald Trump's invitation for a state visit so
2:05:47 > 2:05:50increasing pressure and focus on Theresa May this morning to see
2:05:50 > 2:05:55exactly how she's going to react. We'll keep a close eye on it. Thank
2:05:55 > 2:05:57you very much.
2:05:57 > 2:05:59The United States has called on the international community
2:05:59 > 2:06:02to sever ties with North Korea - it follows the country's latest
2:06:02 > 2:06:03ballistic missile test.
2:06:03 > 2:06:06North Korean media claimed that Wednesday's missile launch
2:06:06 > 2:06:08was the most powerful in the country's history.
2:06:08 > 2:06:11At an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council,
2:06:11 > 2:06:14Washington's Ambassador to the UN warned of dire consequences
2:06:14 > 2:06:16if war breaks out.
2:06:16 > 2:06:20A 24-year-old British man has been killed in Syria while clearing
2:06:20 > 2:06:24and dismantling mines in Raqqa.
2:06:24 > 2:06:26Oliver Hall, from the Portsmouth area, joined Kurdish armed groups
2:06:26 > 2:06:28to fight against so-called Islamic State.
2:06:28 > 2:06:31He is the seventh British man to have been killed in Syria
2:06:31 > 2:06:33with the Kurdish-led group the YPG.
2:06:33 > 2:06:38Plans to get an extra one million disabled people into work will be
2:06:38 > 2:06:39published by the government today.
2:06:39 > 2:06:42Around 50% of disabled people are in work, that's
2:06:42 > 2:06:44around 3.5 million people, compared to 80% of
2:06:44 > 2:06:49non-disabled people.
2:06:56 > 2:07:05We'll speak to the Work and Pensions Secretary in the next few minutes.
2:07:05 > 2:07:08Two clinical trials have shown a new approach to preventing
2:07:08 > 2:07:10migraine can reduce the number of attacks, and their severity.
2:07:10 > 2:07:12Both trials used antibodies that shield the nervous
2:07:12 > 2:07:13system from the headaches.
2:07:13 > 2:07:15Here's more from our health and science
2:07:15 > 2:07:16correspondent James Gallagher.
2:07:16 > 2:07:19Imogen started having migraines two years ago when she was 16. She was
2:07:19 > 2:07:21having attacks every week and they forced her to take a year out of
2:07:21 > 2:07:25college.It was really scary. For me, when they were happening, I had
2:07:25 > 2:07:31no clue what they were because I thought, a might ran was just a
2:07:31 > 2:07:41headache, so we had to keep looking into more serious things.More There
2:07:41 > 2:07:51is a chemical in the nervous system to stop a might ran developing. One
2:07:51 > 2:07:55trial gave patients injections. Before the trial they were having
2:07:55 > 2:07:59migraines eight days a month. 50% of patients were able to cut their
2:07:59 > 2:08:03number of migraines in half. Four drug companies are developing
2:08:03 > 2:08:06similar treatments and scientists say a new therapy could give
2:08:06 > 2:08:13patients their life back. These treatments are the first migraine
2:08:13 > 2:08:17specific preventives ever. For the most substantial neurological cause
2:08:17 > 2:08:23of disability on the planet. It has a huge advance for all of us.
2:08:23 > 2:08:26Imogen's migraines are under control and she's now studying to be a
2:08:26 > 2:08:30nurse. But currently available drugs do not work for everyone and can
2:08:30 > 2:08:35cause side effects. New options for people living with migraine are
2:08:35 > 2:08:36desperately needed.
2:08:44 > 2:08:48Litter on beaches rose by 10% this year with a fifth of the rubbish
2:08:48 > 2:08:50made up of on-the-go food and drinks items such as cups, foil
2:08:50 > 2:08:52wrappers and bottles.
2:08:52 > 2:08:54The Marine Conservation Society is now calling on the Government
2:08:54 > 2:08:57to put a charge on single-use items handed over for free
2:08:57 > 2:08:58like plastic cutlery, straws and sandwich packaging.
2:08:58 > 2:09:03There needs to be a motivation to stop people from using these items
2:09:03 > 2:09:06in the first place and we believe that a levy would create that
2:09:06 > 2:09:11behaviour change as it has done with the plastic bag charge.Mark Foster
2:09:11 > 2:09:14has been telling Breakfast that it's important for young people to be
2:09:14 > 2:09:17confident in their own skin in his first broadcast interview since
2:09:17 > 2:09:21revealing that he is gay. Foster is one of the most successful British
2:09:21 > 2:09:26swimmers of all-time with six World Championship titles, two
2:09:26 > 2:09:31Commonwealth titles, 11 European titles the to his name but he thinks
2:09:31 > 2:09:34keeping his sexuality secret kept him from achieving even more. He'd
2:09:34 > 2:09:38always kept that part of his life private but feels now it's time for
2:09:38 > 2:09:43him to be himself.It's not about that I'm gay because so what there
2:09:43 > 2:09:48are a lot of gay people out there, but it's more to do with, for me, if
2:09:48 > 2:09:53you can just be yourself and not have to carry around half-truth and
2:09:53 > 2:09:57half lies, then, you know, there's this big problem with mental health
2:09:57 > 2:10:02and if people only speak a bit more, a friend or family and confide in
2:10:02 > 2:10:06someone and be a little less vulnerable, it makes things easier
2:10:06 > 2:10:10because you don't have the voice in your head all the time saying this
2:10:10 > 2:10:20is not normal, trying to process and filter things.We are focussing on
2:10:20 > 2:10:24issues around disability and employment now, and Mr David Gauke
2:10:24 > 2:10:29joins us. The comments by Donald Trump first of all, can I ask you
2:10:29 > 2:10:33about these. A blunt put touchdown Theresa May for those who haven't
2:10:33 > 2:10:39already seen it. Don't focus on me, focus on the destructive Islamic
2:10:39 > 2:10:42terrorism taking place within the United Kingdom. What do you make of
2:10:42 > 2:10:48his comments?Well, President Trump was wrong to retweet something
2:10:48 > 2:10:52coming from Britain first. There are ghastly obnoxious organisations. The
2:10:52 > 2:10:57Prime Minister was absolutely right to point out that he was wrong to do
2:10:57 > 2:11:02so and I'm pleased that she did that and, if Donald Trump doesn't like
2:11:02 > 2:11:06it, so be it but the Prime Minister was right.It feels fairly
2:11:06 > 2:11:09uncomfortable does it not though, having the President of the United
2:11:09 > 2:11:16States and our Prime Minister at odds in this way over Twitter?Well,
2:11:16 > 2:11:21in normal circumstances, this sort of thing doesn't happen. But we are
2:11:21 > 2:11:25not in normal circumstances. The fact is, when the President did what
2:11:25 > 2:11:30he did yesterday in terms of tweeting, re-tweeting Britain first,
2:11:30 > 2:11:34I think the Prime Minister had no choice but to point out that that
2:11:34 > 2:11:40was wrong. She was correct to do so. Of course, we want to have a good
2:11:40 > 2:11:43relationship with the United States, they are our closest security allie,
2:11:43 > 2:11:48one of our most important economic partners and we want to have that
2:11:48 > 2:11:51close relationship and we need to engage with the United States,
2:11:51 > 2:11:55including the President of the United States. But when he's got
2:11:55 > 2:12:01something as badly wrong as he has, we are right to call him out on it.
2:12:01 > 2:12:05You use the phrase, we are not in normal circumstances, a lot of
2:12:05 > 2:12:08people wondering about the Trump visit. Do you think it's time to
2:12:08 > 2:12:12withdraw the invitation?As I said, it's important that we engage with
2:12:12 > 2:12:16the United States and President Trump just because there is a visit
2:12:16 > 2:12:19doesn't mean that that is an endorsement of everything that a
2:12:19 > 2:12:23particular leader says or does and, the United States is a very
2:12:23 > 2:12:27important allie to us. So we have got to continue to engage. That
2:12:27 > 2:12:33invitation's gone out, it's been accepted, the details to be
2:12:33 > 2:12:38finalised and who knows, it might be educational.So let us talk about
2:12:38 > 2:12:41the issues around getting more disabled people into work. You are
2:12:41 > 2:12:45pledging to get one million more people into the work place in a
2:12:45 > 2:12:50decade over the space of ten years. Tell us about those proposals?It's
2:12:50 > 2:12:54an ambitious target, but it's important we do everything we can to
2:12:54 > 2:12:57make sure people can fulfil their potential. The vast majority of
2:12:57 > 2:13:01disabled people who're out of work do want work. We have made progress
2:13:01 > 2:13:05in recent years, there are 600,000 more disabled people in work than
2:13:05 > 2:13:08was the case four years ago but there's further to go. That means
2:13:08 > 2:13:12ensuring that we have got a welfare system that gives people the
2:13:12 > 2:13:17personalised support so they can get into work, a health system that is
2:13:17 > 2:13:22working to ensure that we prevent problems, preventing people from
2:13:22 > 2:13:26working, and also we need to have a culture shift, we need employers who
2:13:26 > 2:13:30are looking to do what they can to provide opportunities to disabled
2:13:30 > 2:13:34people. We have very many excellent employers in this country doing
2:13:34 > 2:13:40great work but we need toe ensure that happens across-the-board and
2:13:40 > 2:13:43that the government prosides the employers and support they need to
2:13:43 > 2:13:48get people who have disabilitied into work.Did you really call this
2:13:48 > 2:13:52an ambitious target, a million over ten years, in the same sentence you
2:13:52 > 2:13:57said in four years, 600,000 people have got work, so in what way is
2:13:57 > 2:14:01this ambitious because a lot of critics are saying it's the
2:14:01 > 2:14:04opposite, you have set a low target, it could be a lot higher and you
2:14:04 > 2:14:09could do a lot more?We have made great progress, but as you progress,
2:14:09 > 2:14:13sometimes these things can get harder.Hold on, so you are saying
2:14:13 > 2:14:18the process is going to slow down and you know it?No, let us be clear
2:14:18 > 2:14:23of the numbers, there are 3.5 million people in work today who're
2:14:23 > 2:14:29disabled, we are looking to move that to 4.5 million people that. Is
2:14:29 > 2:14:32a substantial increase and that will require a lot of work on a number of
2:14:32 > 2:14:35fronts, in terms of working with employers, the welfare system, the
2:14:35 > 2:14:40health system. That is about increasing opportunities for large
2:14:40 > 2:14:45numbers of people. So it is an ambitious programme, one that we
2:14:45 > 2:14:49believe that we can deliver and what we are setting out today is some of
2:14:49 > 2:14:53the measures that we are going to take and also the plan to how we are
2:14:53 > 2:14:58going to test and learn and how we are going to innovate in this area
2:14:58 > 2:15:01to ensure we increase opportunities for disabled people and people with
2:15:01 > 2:15:05health conditions that at the moment don't get the chances that they need
2:15:05 > 2:15:09and it's really important for them and also for our economy that we
2:15:09 > 2:15:15make progress on this.I don't want to get bogged down in this but you
2:15:15 > 2:15:19keep using the word ambitious which is just not true. You seem to be
2:15:19 > 2:15:22officially saying that the rate at which people will get work in the
2:15:22 > 2:15:25next few years is slowing down, according to your official figures,
2:15:25 > 2:15:30that is what you are saying, and specifically a lot of critics say
2:15:30 > 2:15:33specific to those with learning disabilities, there is almost
2:15:33 > 2:15:38nothing in your outlining of your proposals that will address any of
2:15:38 > 2:15:42their needs and they often think they're the most forgotten of all
2:15:42 > 2:15:47the people in these situations?
2:15:47 > 2:15:53I don't accept that. To go from 3.4 million disabled people in work to
2:15:53 > 2:15:564.5 million in the course of a decade would be extraordinary
2:15:56 > 2:16:03progress. Yes, we have made progress in the last four years. I am pleased
2:16:03 > 2:16:09about that. But if we don't take further steps, then frankly we could
2:16:09 > 2:16:13go backwards. It is the case that people with disabilities are three
2:16:13 > 2:16:18times more likely to leave work, sorry, twice as likely to leave work
2:16:18 > 2:16:22as those without disabilities. And they find it harder to get into
2:16:22 > 2:16:27work. We do need to take steps, notwithstanding the progress we have
2:16:27 > 2:16:31already made. That is why we set out in the paper today a number of
2:16:31 > 2:16:36measures across the piece. There is particular focus on mental health
2:16:36 > 2:16:44and those with musculoskeletal conditions, because those are the
2:16:44 > 2:16:48largest groups were we think we can make progress. But across the board
2:16:48 > 2:16:52for every type of group we are making steps. It does require a
2:16:52 > 2:16:58culture change and it requires government to take steps ensuring
2:16:58 > 2:17:02people get that personalised support with the welfare system. We are
2:17:02 > 2:17:05doing that. This is a really important approach that can
2:17:05 > 2:17:10transform significant numbers of lives.You have used the word is
2:17:10 > 2:17:15ambitious and important. How much money are you pledging, how much new
2:17:15 > 2:17:21money are you pledging to these important ambitions?Today is not a
2:17:21 > 2:17:25day when we are setting out new money.How much money will you be
2:17:25 > 2:17:30putting into this important new ambitious programme? The question
2:17:30 > 2:17:33was how much money will you be putting into this programme that is
2:17:33 > 2:17:40ambitious?We have already set out a number of areas of expenditure. For
2:17:40 > 2:17:44example, when it comes to innovation in this particular area there is a
2:17:44 > 2:17:48£70 million programme we have announced. This is in a context
2:17:48 > 2:17:54where we spend £50 billion a year on disabled people, people with health
2:17:54 > 2:17:58conditions. We spend a very significant sum of money every year
2:17:58 > 2:18:03on this. What today is about is about how we find ways in which we
2:18:03 > 2:18:07can innovate. Find ways in which we can change the culture. Find ways in
2:18:07 > 2:18:19which we can find additional money. One example, spending £39 million on
2:18:19 > 2:18:26people accessing psychological support, psychological therapies. We
2:18:26 > 2:18:30have already set out how we are spending £330 million over the next
2:18:30 > 2:18:34four years in terms of personal support packages for people with
2:18:34 > 2:18:39disabilities, to help them, and health conditions, to help them into
2:18:39 > 2:18:44work. This is an important set of policies.This week we have been
2:18:44 > 2:18:47doing a series of reports on the problems faced by many people,
2:18:47 > 2:18:51including those with learning disabilities. I think your words
2:18:51 > 2:18:55will ring pretty hollow with them. What they are seeing is the reality
2:18:55 > 2:19:02of the situation. They look back at the place from 2015 from the
2:19:02 > 2:19:05Treasury, I'm not sure, maybe you were in the Treasury at the time,
2:19:05 > 2:19:10the place was... Increasing employment levels among people with
2:19:10 > 2:19:17learning disabilities is a key aim of the government. The aim is to
2:19:17 > 2:19:21have the employment gap between disabled and non-disabled people. It
2:19:21 > 2:19:25was an aim, a pledge, it was ambitious. They probably used the
2:19:25 > 2:19:30same words you are using now. A lot of people will think you are saying
2:19:30 > 2:19:34the words with little to back it up. That place did not happen. It is
2:19:34 > 2:19:40nowhere near?Hold on. Since 2014, the employment rate for disabled
2:19:40 > 2:19:46people has gone up by 4.7%. For the population as a whole it has gone up
2:19:46 > 2:19:51by 2.2%. As I say, we have been making progress in terms of
2:19:51 > 2:19:57increasing the employment rate. -- the employment rate amongst disabled
2:19:57 > 2:20:02people. There is more we need to do. We have a record of making
2:20:02 > 2:20:05improvement in this area in terms of the employment rate but there is
2:20:05 > 2:20:10further work that needs to be done. What we are setting out today in the
2:20:10 > 2:20:13paper is how we are going to do that. We can increase the number
2:20:13 > 2:20:21from 3.5 million to 4.5 million over the course of a decade. If we can do
2:20:21 > 2:20:24that, that would be good news for the British economy because we are
2:20:24 > 2:20:30tapping into the talents of people. But perhaps more importantly, there
2:20:30 > 2:20:34will be good news for the million people who will be able to get into
2:20:34 > 2:20:39work and have all the benefits that work provides. That is why we are
2:20:39 > 2:20:43making this announcement.David Gauke, thank you for your time.
2:20:43 > 2:20:48The work and pensions secretary.
2:20:48 > 2:20:53Here's Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
2:20:53 > 2:20:54It is cold. It is
2:20:54 > 2:20:58It is cold. It is going to get colder.
2:20:58 > 2:21:02It is cold. The start of meteorological winter not till
2:21:02 > 2:21:08tomorrow but it has started already. Most startling dry and sunny. -6 in
2:21:08 > 2:21:14parts of Worcestershire. Some are now waking up to a good covering of
2:21:14 > 2:21:21snow in Yorkshire, Norfolk and parts of Scotland. That will cause a few
2:21:21 > 2:21:26issues on the roads. I see in places. The showers in eastern
2:21:26 > 2:21:31England will push further west. Rain showers to the west of Wales, Devon
2:21:31 > 2:21:39and Cornwall, Northern Ireland. Turning drier later. For the vast
2:21:39 > 2:21:44majority it will be a dry and fairly sunny day but a cold day. Arctic
2:21:44 > 2:21:50with us. With a wind blowing across the country and added wind-chill,
2:21:50 > 2:21:55-3, -4 in eastern Scotland. Central Scotland with lots of sunshine. A
2:21:55 > 2:22:01dry afternoon in Northern Ireland. Eastern counties of England the
2:22:01 > 2:22:08greater chance of showers later. Most rain, hail or sleet. Clouding
2:22:08 > 2:22:15over to the south-east. Much of the West will stay dry and bright.
2:22:15 > 2:22:18Showers in Wales will become more confined to the far west. Tonight,
2:22:18 > 2:22:25clear for many. Lots of cloud in eastern England. A strong breeze.
2:22:25 > 2:22:32Wintry showers. Increased risk of ice. Temperatures just above
2:22:32 > 2:22:35freezing. Elsewhere, temperatures below freezing. Colder night in
2:22:35 > 2:22:43parts of Scotland. -10 tomorrow morning. A cold start to Friday. I
2:22:43 > 2:22:50see winds across eastern England easing down. Confined to East Anglia
2:22:50 > 2:22:55and the south-east. Showers on the coastal strip. Much of England and
2:22:55 > 2:22:58Wales dry with sunshine tomorrow. Cloudy day with sunny breaks in
2:22:58 > 2:23:02Scotland and Northern Ireland. Later, a change in wind direction.
2:23:02 > 2:23:05That is due to this area of high-pressure drifting south into
2:23:05 > 2:23:11weekend. The yellow colours an indication of something less chilly
2:23:11 > 2:23:15pushing its way in. Slowly, and I emphasise slowly, getting milder
2:23:15 > 2:23:21this weekend. Saturday still quite roar in England and Wales. Wet
2:23:21 > 2:23:27conditions to the north-west of Scotland. The mild air will be down
2:23:27 > 2:23:31towards the south coast by the time we get to Sunday. Doubled --
2:23:31 > 2:23:35double-figure temperatures after early drizzle. Right conditions east
2:23:35 > 2:23:38of high ground. A lot of cloud around this weekend. The upside, if
2:23:38 > 2:23:44you like your weather not to chilly, it will be a touch milder, but
2:23:44 > 2:23:45colder weather is never too far away.
2:23:45 > 2:23:48colder weather is never too far away.
2:23:48 > 2:23:52Back next week. Not to chilly is always preferred, isn't it?
2:23:52 > 2:23:55It depends. Cold and crisp from me. Thank you.
2:23:55 > 2:23:58Will the government make good on its promise of bringing high
2:23:58 > 2:24:02speed internet access to all of us by 2020?
2:24:02 > 2:24:04The key company that it will have to rely
2:24:04 > 2:24:07on to make that happen - Openreach - is warning it could risk
2:24:07 > 2:24:10missing the target unless it decides how it's going to do
2:24:10 > 2:24:11the work very soon.
2:24:11 > 2:24:16Ross Hawkins is in North Wales.
2:24:16 > 2:24:21They have come up with a clever way to get people connected. I see
2:24:21 > 2:24:24cables behind you. Explain how they will achieve what many people are
2:24:24 > 2:24:32seeing is a big problem for auroral areas?Yeah, we have cables, we have
2:24:32 > 2:24:37snow. Something even more exciting than that. People lived on the high
2:24:37 > 2:24:45side of the valley. But the high speed network was down there. What
2:24:45 > 2:24:51did they do? They came up with a solution. This drone. Attached to
2:24:51 > 2:24:56the bottom of that, as it takes off, is actually some fishing line. They
2:24:56 > 2:24:59use the fishing line to fly out there over the valley. They then
2:24:59 > 2:25:05managed to drop the fishing line down and use that to drag across the
2:25:05 > 2:25:12fibre-optic cable, which then meant they can have high-speed Internet up
2:25:12 > 2:25:18here. There goes the cable. They can use that to drug -- drag across. 12
2:25:18 > 2:25:22drone pilots they have trained, according to the company Openreach,
2:25:22 > 2:25:27behind this. The head of engineering is not allowed to do it any more
2:25:27 > 2:25:30because he is scared -- he has scared some sheep. What difference
2:25:30 > 2:25:35has admitted to you, Chris? Tremendous difference. It has
2:25:35 > 2:25:41brought light to the dark side.In practical terms that means what? How
2:25:41 > 2:25:44long did it take to download a film before and how long does it take
2:25:44 > 2:25:49now?I made wait for the afternoon for the film to come and now it is
2:25:49 > 2:25:57about 12 minutes. A Blu-ray film. You will be thinking that is all
2:25:57 > 2:26:02very well for rural Wales. I don't live on the side of a valley. I is
2:26:02 > 2:26:07my broadband not as fast as Chris'? Headhunted from Openreach can answer
2:26:07 > 2:26:11that. This is clever and innovative but the government wanted to force
2:26:11 > 2:26:16you legally to put in place broadband right across the country
2:26:16 > 2:26:20and you are resisting their proposal, putting a counter offer.
2:26:20 > 2:26:25Why not accept what the government wants?We are not resisting it.
2:26:25 > 2:26:31Their plan is from 2020 people request broadband at 10 megabits per
2:26:31 > 2:26:33second minimum. Our offer we have made to government is better,
2:26:33 > 2:26:38however. We are saying we will deploy to everybody from next year
2:26:38 > 2:26:44if they accept our offer.But you have made this counter innocence to
2:26:44 > 2:26:47what the government promised consumers in their manifesto. You
2:26:47 > 2:26:50know there are -- your industry rivals think there is a problem with
2:26:50 > 2:26:53your offer, if you fail to give people who don't have the advantage
2:26:53 > 2:26:59of drums the server broadband they want, they will hold you to account.
2:26:59 > 2:27:03How can we trust Openreach to deliver what you say you will?So
2:27:03 > 2:27:09far we have delivered to 95% of the UK. That is a huge amount of effort,
2:27:09 > 2:27:13commitment and investment, partly funded by government. We want to go
2:27:13 > 2:27:18further. We think the right thing to do is to make a generous offer to
2:27:18 > 2:27:21government in order to bring greater than 10 megabits broadband to
2:27:21 > 2:27:26absolutely everybody and started from next year.Thank you very much.
2:27:26 > 2:27:29Who knows, a drunk would be coming to help with the Internet by you
2:27:29 > 2:27:33sometime soon. If it doesn't, you will have Openreach to answer
2:27:33 > 2:27:37questions.
2:27:37 > 2:27:39Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.
2:30:56 > 2:30:58Plenty more on our website at the usual address.
2:30:58 > 2:31:00Now though it's back to Charlie and Naga.
2:31:00 > 2:31:01Bye for now.
2:31:04 > 2:31:07Hello, this is Breakfast with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt.
2:31:07 > 2:31:08Good morning.
2:31:08 > 2:31:17First, our main story.
2:31:17 > 2:31:20In a blunt tweet, President Trump has told Theresa May that she should
2:31:20 > 2:31:22pay more attention to tackling terrorism in the UK,
2:31:22 > 2:31:23rather than criticising him.
2:31:23 > 2:31:25The message was delivered last night after Downing Street criticised
2:31:25 > 2:31:27the US President for sharing anti-Muslim videos posted
2:31:27 > 2:31:31by a British far-right group on social media.
2:31:31 > 2:31:37The row has placed more pressure on the Prime Minister to cancel
2:31:37 > 2:31:42Mr Trump's state visit to the UK next year.
2:31:42 > 2:31:45It is important that we engage with the United States and President
2:31:45 > 2:31:47Trump. Just because there is a visit, that does not mean it
2:31:47 > 2:31:49Trump. Just because there is a visit, that does not mean it is an
2:31:49 > 2:31:52endorsement of everything that leader does, and the USA is an
2:31:52 > 2:31:58important ally to us. The invitation has gone out, it has been accepted,
2:31:58 > 2:32:02details to be finalised, and, who knows, it might be educational.
2:32:02 > 2:32:04The United States has called on the international community
2:32:04 > 2:32:06to sever ties with North Korea following the country's latest
2:32:06 > 2:32:07ballistic missile test.
2:32:07 > 2:32:13North Korean state media claimed that Wednesday's missile launch
2:32:13 > 2:32:15was the most powerful in the country's history.
2:32:15 > 2:32:19At an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council,
2:32:19 > 2:32:21Washington's Ambassador to the UN warned of dire
2:32:21 > 2:32:24consequences if war were to break out on the Korean peninsula.
2:32:24 > 2:32:27The Government is setting out plans to get a million more disabled
2:32:27 > 2:32:29people into work over the next ten years.
2:32:29 > 2:32:32Less than half of the UK's disabled population is currently in work
2:32:32 > 2:32:33and charities say progress from previous, similar
2:32:33 > 2:32:36schemes has been too slow.
2:32:36 > 2:32:38Scientists say they have made an "incredibly important" advance
2:32:38 > 2:32:42in the prevention of migraine.
2:32:42 > 2:32:44The results of two clinical trials showed that injections of antibodies
2:32:44 > 2:32:47can be used to neutralise a chemical which is believed to
2:32:47 > 2:32:49trigger severe headaches.
2:32:49 > 2:32:51Around half of patients reported a 50% reduction in the number
2:32:51 > 2:32:59of attacks they had each month.
2:32:59 > 2:33:04Earlier, consultant neurologist said he believed the treatment was a
2:33:04 > 2:33:07genuine breakthrough.New drugs that are currently going to be marketed
2:33:07 > 2:33:13in the next year or so, they are the first-ever drug that has been
2:33:13 > 2:33:15developed for migraine and would work for migraine because currently
2:33:15 > 2:33:21what drugs we use are the drugs used for depression, epilepsy, hybrid
2:33:21 > 2:33:25pressure, and they also work for migraine but this will be the first
2:33:25 > 2:33:32ever drug developed for migraine that will work for migraine.
2:33:32 > 2:33:37The nation's Breakfast habits are changing and Kellogg says it will
2:33:37 > 2:33:39cut sugar across some of the big brands.
2:33:39 > 2:33:45Sean, what was the boss saying? A couple of brands in particular, Coco
2:33:45 > 2:33:52Pops will see sugar reduced, there will still be 17 grams of sugar per
2:33:52 > 2:33:56100 grams of Coco Pops but it is less than previously. They named
2:33:56 > 2:34:02Rice crispy is as well. Then you go onto the other brands that have
2:34:02 > 2:34:06quite high sugar content 11 grams in every 30 grams portion, they are not
2:34:06 > 2:34:12doing anything there. 17 grams of sugar in a 30 grams...
2:34:12 > 2:34:17In 100 grams, so 17% of Coco Pops, this is after they have made the
2:34:17 > 2:34:23changes, a reduction of nearly half of what it was previously. I asked
2:34:23 > 2:34:28him what it was that was driving these changes.It is what consumers
2:34:28 > 2:34:32are telling us about, they want to make healthier choices and I think
2:34:32 > 2:34:39if you take the Coco Pops example of 40% reduction in sugar, it will be
2:34:39 > 2:34:4517% sugar in the serial...It still seems quite a lot?From a Government
2:34:45 > 2:34:49perspective it does not qualify as a high sugar food. It is something we
2:34:49 > 2:34:52take seriously because by getting sugar levels down and most
2:34:52 > 2:34:56importantly keeping the same great taste, we are able to talk about the
2:34:56 > 2:35:03great things in these, like the B vitamins and the iron.As he was
2:35:03 > 2:35:06saying, that amount of sugar in a bowl of Coco Pops is not classified
2:35:06 > 2:35:11as a high sugar level serial by the Government, which is perhaps why we
2:35:11 > 2:35:19may see changes in the future to the likes of frost is, crunchy nut
2:35:19 > 2:35:23cornflakes and their granola relative to the new Coco Pops will
2:35:23 > 2:35:26have quite a high sugar level so it is controversial and a lot of
2:35:26 > 2:35:29campaigners will say it is still too much sugar, particularly when
2:35:29 > 2:35:33consumed by children. It is really about whether the
2:35:33 > 2:35:35Government lowers its recommended levels...
2:35:35 > 2:35:40And who knows, one day, a sugar tax, we have seen it on fizzy drinks, it
2:35:40 > 2:35:44is not expected on cereals but that might be the kind of pressure that
2:35:44 > 2:35:47is in the pipeline. Good guest for us to have as well.
2:35:47 > 2:35:50Yes, he was very interesting.
2:35:50 > 2:35:52The British Olympic swimmer Mark Foster has been telling
2:35:52 > 2:35:54Breakfast that it's important for young people to be
2:35:54 > 2:35:57confident in their own skin, in his first broadcast interveiw
2:35:57 > 2:35:58since revealing that he is gay.
2:35:58 > 2:36:01Foster is one of the most succesful British swimmers of all time,
2:36:01 > 2:36:04with six World Championship titles, two Commonwealth titles and 11
2:36:04 > 2:36:06European titles to his name, but thinks keeping his sexuality
2:36:06 > 2:36:08secret kept him from achieving even more.
2:36:08 > 2:36:10Until earlier this week he had always kept this part
2:36:10 > 2:36:12of his life private, but feels now its time
2:36:12 > 2:36:14for him to be himself.
2:36:14 > 2:36:18It is not about that I am gay because, so what, there are lots of
2:36:18 > 2:36:23gay people out there. It is more to do with, for me, if you could just
2:36:23 > 2:36:29be yourself and not have to carry around half-truths and half lies,
2:36:29 > 2:36:34there is a big problem with mental health, if people only speak a
2:36:34 > 2:36:40little bit more, with friends or family, providing someone, be a
2:36:40 > 2:36:43little bit more vulnerable, you don't have this voice in your head
2:36:43 > 2:36:47all the time saying, this is not normal, and trying to process things
2:36:47 > 2:36:52and filter things. Mark Foster, talking to us earlier.
2:36:52 > 2:36:54Coming up here on Breakfast this morning...
2:36:54 > 2:36:57We're getting some top tips on job hunting from one of the best
2:36:57 > 2:36:59in the business at showcasing the talents of those
2:36:59 > 2:37:00with special educational needs.
2:37:00 > 2:37:03We'll be joined by the Bafta-award winning producer behind some of this
2:37:03 > 2:37:13week's most stunning Blue Planet moments.
2:37:16 > 2:37:18# I'm so in love with you...
2:37:18 > 2:37:20Over ten million people hear him sing every week,
2:37:20 > 2:37:22but you'd be forgiven for not even knowing his name.
2:37:22 > 2:37:24We'll be talking to Strictly singer Tommy Blaize before
2:37:24 > 2:37:29the end of the programme.
2:37:29 > 2:37:33All of that coming up but first we will celebrate, what did you say,
2:37:33 > 2:37:37the best goal of the season and the season is not over yet?
2:37:37 > 2:37:41One of the best golf Wayne Rooney has ever scored in his career, which
2:37:41 > 2:37:45is a long and successful one, this will be on the short list for goal
2:37:45 > 2:37:49of the season. We will show you the goal in a minute, Wayne Rooney
2:37:49 > 2:37:52capping of an incredible performance with a hat-trick last night, which
2:37:52 > 2:37:55got a thumbs up from Sam Allardyce, who will take over as Everton
2:37:55 > 2:38:00manager later on today. Wayne Rooney's feat were doing the
2:38:00 > 2:38:03talking. We will be talking about thumbs
2:38:03 > 2:38:07later as well. Interesting, looking forward to
2:38:07 > 2:38:09that!
2:38:09 > 2:38:11Everton impressed new manager Sam Allardyce but the night
2:38:11 > 2:38:15belonged to one man.
2:38:15 > 2:38:17Wayne Rooney scoring his first Everton hat-trick,
2:38:17 > 2:38:21and what a way to get it, a goal from his own half.
2:38:21 > 2:38:23He says it's one of the best he's ever scored.
2:38:23 > 2:38:27His new manager will want to see him get a few more.
2:38:27 > 2:38:30Sam Allardyce will be looking to improve Everton's fortunes so far
2:38:30 > 2:38:33this season.
2:38:33 > 2:38:40The third one, it felt to me, Joe was out of his goal, and it just
2:38:40 > 2:38:44went through.I saw you celebrating as soon as you hit it, you knew it
2:38:44 > 2:38:48was giving game, you caught it right, didn't you?As soon as I
2:38:48 > 2:38:52caught the ball, it is one of them, it could slice off, I try to hit it
2:38:52 > 2:38:58hard enough to go in but try and keep some control.
2:38:58 > 2:39:01Very understated, I would be screaming the roof down if I scored
2:39:01 > 2:39:03from the halfway line!
2:39:03 > 2:39:06From great goals to late ones, Raheem Sterling grabbing manchester
2:39:06 > 2:39:11city's winner with the last kick of the game.
2:39:11 > 2:39:16It was 1-1 going into stoppage time against Southampton.
2:39:16 > 2:39:18Based on this reaction, scoring important goals is just
2:39:18 > 2:39:22as satisfying as great ones.
2:39:22 > 2:39:25Fourth placed Arsenal scored five against Huddersfield -
2:39:25 > 2:39:31Oliver Giroud hammering home one of his two goals.
2:39:31 > 2:39:33And, not to be outdone, Mo Salah also scored twice
2:39:33 > 2:39:35for Liverpool as they beat Stoke 3-0.
2:39:35 > 2:39:38He's the Premier League's top goalscorer with 12.
2:39:38 > 2:39:40From scoring runs to unbeaten runs - Celtic have now gone 65
2:39:40 > 2:39:44domestic matches unbeaten after their draw against Motherwell.
2:39:44 > 2:39:47Meanwhile, Rangers beat second placed Aberdeen 3-0 at Ibrox.
2:39:47 > 2:39:54James Tavernier on the scoresheet twice.
2:39:54 > 2:39:57After touching down in New Zealand, Ben Stokes has signed to play
2:39:57 > 2:39:59domestic cricket for Canterbury, but is unlikely
2:39:59 > 2:40:00to play in the Ashes.
2:40:00 > 2:40:04He's still to hear if he'll be charged following an incident
2:40:04 > 2:40:08outside a Bristol nightclub.
2:40:08 > 2:40:12The police have handed their file to the Crown Prosecution Service.
2:40:12 > 2:40:14In netball, England came from behind to beat Malawi
2:40:14 > 2:40:16and complete a 3-0 series win.
2:40:16 > 2:40:18The Roses were eight goals adrift after the first quarter
2:40:18 > 2:40:22in Birmingham but came back to complete a 62-60 victory.
2:40:22 > 2:40:24England, who are ranked third in the world, are building up
2:40:24 > 2:40:26to the Commonwealth Games in Australia next year.
2:40:26 > 2:40:32
2:40:32 > 2:40:37All going well for them. Do you want to know what we are talking about
2:40:37 > 2:40:41when we talk about thumbs? We cannot see it now but Sam Allardyce's from
2:40:41 > 2:40:52Ben is a bit trendy, and you have got a Dendy thumb as well, which
2:40:52 > 2:40:54shocks us. I didn't realise there was anything
2:40:54 > 2:40:57unusual about it, to be honest with you.
2:40:57 > 2:41:02Let's have a look. It bends backwards. Instead of,
2:41:02 > 2:41:07what, being straight? It does bend backwards slightly more
2:41:07 > 2:41:11than some do, but it prompted a lot of people to get in touch, it is
2:41:11 > 2:41:14funny the things people get in touch about!
2:41:14 > 2:41:17I feel like there is a lot of support out there today, other
2:41:17 > 2:41:21weirdly... Shall we go through some of the
2:41:21 > 2:41:26pictures?! Chris says his bended thumbs are
2:41:26 > 2:41:29good for pushing in drawing pins. True.
2:41:29 > 2:41:39This is stupid from Bedfordshire. Not such a strong bend from Gareth.
2:41:39 > 2:41:46This one is a bit odd. It is like the reverse of the heart.
2:41:46 > 2:41:50I was hoping we would get a female form in amongst all of these male
2:41:50 > 2:41:54thumbs, Allison got in touch and said she always assumed her thumbs
2:41:54 > 2:41:57were normal. As did I!
2:41:57 > 2:42:02Can we make it clear there is no normal or abnormal, no need to feel
2:42:02 > 2:42:06isolated because your thumb may bend more than someone else's.
2:42:06 > 2:42:13Good in a thorn Wall, right? I don't often do a thumbs up to
2:42:13 > 2:42:18people. I don't think I will do it either!
2:42:18 > 2:42:21Yours is more of a sideways thumb than a thumbs up!
2:42:21 > 2:42:24Thank you, John.
2:42:24 > 2:42:27All this week we've been looking at the issues facing
2:42:27 > 2:42:28families of children with Special Educational Needs
2:42:28 > 2:42:30and Disabilities - but what support is on offer
2:42:30 > 2:42:32when those children become adults?
2:42:32 > 2:42:34The education watchdog Ofsted has told Breakfast there's been little
2:42:34 > 2:42:36progress in providing things like education, health
2:42:36 > 2:42:38and care for young people once they get to 19,
2:42:38 > 2:42:41with parents often describing the system as a cliff edge.
2:42:41 > 2:42:42Our disability affairs correspondent Nikki Fox has
2:42:42 > 2:42:43been finding out more.
2:42:43 > 2:42:45Did you have something to say?
2:42:45 > 2:42:46Ruth loves being at this specialist college.
2:42:46 > 2:42:50What colour is this, Ruth?
2:42:50 > 2:42:54But it has been tough getting to this point.
2:42:54 > 2:42:59Lovely, using your words...
2:42:59 > 2:43:01Her dad had to fight to get her an education,
2:43:01 > 2:43:03health and care plan.
2:43:03 > 2:43:05Introduced three years ago as part of major reforms,
2:43:05 > 2:43:10they were designed to help children and young people,
2:43:10 > 2:43:12like Ruth, up to the age of 25.
2:43:12 > 2:43:14It took tribunals, and around two years, to get one.
2:43:14 > 2:43:17During that time, Ruth missed a vital part in her course in speech
2:43:17 > 2:43:18and language therapy.
2:43:18 > 2:43:22She is 24 now, so she has only got one year left.
2:43:22 > 2:43:24Hello.
2:43:24 > 2:43:26Life with disabilities is a fight.
2:43:26 > 2:43:30The parents find it very hard.
2:43:30 > 2:43:35It's extremely worrying.
2:43:35 > 2:43:38I once said, many years ago to the social worker,
2:43:38 > 2:43:40when she was small, if something happens to me,
2:43:40 > 2:43:42put her in the grave with me.
2:43:42 > 2:43:47And I still feel that way, because I do not actually feel that,
2:43:47 > 2:43:54in the past 15 years, we've actually made much
2:43:54 > 2:43:56of an improvement, as far as services are concerned
2:43:56 > 2:43:57for these vulnerable kids.
2:43:57 > 2:44:00After recent inspections, Ofsted has raised concerns
2:44:00 > 2:44:03about a lack of help and resources for students once they reach
2:44:03 > 2:44:07the age of 19.
2:44:07 > 2:44:10This report also says the transfer to EHC plans has had a negative
2:44:10 > 2:44:13impact on many young people's lives.
2:44:13 > 2:44:15Wildlife expert Chris Packham wasn't diagnosed with Asperger's
2:44:15 > 2:44:24until he was in his 40s.
2:44:24 > 2:44:27He's had a successful career, and is convinced that access
2:44:27 > 2:44:28to education is key.
2:44:28 > 2:44:30The highly gifted, and the people that find things difficult,
2:44:30 > 2:44:31we can't ignore them.
2:44:31 > 2:44:32They're worth the investment.
2:44:32 > 2:44:36Everyone deserves a fair, proper education.
2:44:36 > 2:44:39That's what should be the underlying principle of our society,
2:44:39 > 2:44:44and, at the moment, they're not getting it.
2:44:44 > 2:44:47It's karaoke afternoon at this specialist training centre
2:44:47 > 2:44:50for people with learning disabilities.
2:44:50 > 2:44:53Its aim - to get talented young people like Ben Hanson a diploma
2:44:53 > 2:44:57and a job.
2:44:57 > 2:45:00He's on a placement which he hopes will lead to paid work.
2:45:00 > 2:45:01So you're working at a hotel.
2:45:01 > 2:45:02Yeah.
2:45:02 > 2:45:07What are you doing at the hotel?
2:45:07 > 2:45:13I'm working in the bar, serving customers on the tables.
2:45:13 > 2:45:14Do you have a dream?
2:45:14 > 2:45:15Yes.
2:45:15 > 2:45:16What is your dream?
2:45:16 > 2:45:18Yeah, my dream is a posh hotel.
2:45:18 > 2:45:19You want to work in a posh hotel?
2:45:19 > 2:45:23Yes.
2:45:23 > 2:45:25But with only around 6% of people with learning disabilities
2:45:25 > 2:45:27in employment, despite his energy and enthusiasm, the odds
2:45:27 > 2:45:29are against him.
2:45:29 > 2:45:31I think the whole thing is difficult.
2:45:31 > 2:45:38Post-18, one father described it to me as jumping off a cliff.
2:45:38 > 2:45:40There's no understanding that a lifelong learning disability
2:45:40 > 2:45:43is there, that it's with you for life.
2:45:43 > 2:45:45And the education, health and care plan -
2:45:45 > 2:45:47well, fine, but that finishes at 25.
2:45:47 > 2:45:48Then what?
2:45:48 > 2:45:49Is college fun?
2:45:49 > 2:45:50Yes!
2:45:50 > 2:45:52Councils say there isn't enough money or facilities to offer support
2:45:52 > 2:45:55up to the age of 25, but the Government says it has
2:45:55 > 2:45:58recently put in an extra £45 million to help families of young people
2:45:58 > 2:46:01with special educational needs.
2:46:01 > 2:46:04All Ruth's parents want is for her education to continue
2:46:04 > 2:46:07for as long as possible, to give her the best shot at living
2:46:07 > 2:46:16a fulfilled, happy life.
2:46:16 > 2:46:20Nikki Fox, BBC News.
2:46:20 > 2:46:22Our disability correspondent Nikki Fox joins us now.
2:46:22 > 2:46:32You watch family s like Ruth's family, this must be worrying as she
2:46:32 > 2:46:38approaches 25.It is a constant worry and battle. They have a lot of
2:46:38 > 2:46:43things to worry about but Ruth probably won't get a job. If they
2:46:43 > 2:46:47had their way she would stay at the specialist college for ever because
2:46:47 > 2:46:51she is so happy there. She is a good example of how so many parents,
2:46:51 > 2:46:55particularly with young people, who have quite complex profound
2:46:55 > 2:47:00disabilities feel about what will happen when I'm no longer here, how
2:47:00 > 2:47:04will my son or daughter live independently? What will happen? We
2:47:04 > 2:47:08have had a tweet, so many tweets come I've had some personal ones.
2:47:08 > 2:47:13Kathleen says the key thing about the cut-off to SEND support is just
2:47:13 > 2:47:18because her daughter is 25 years old doesn't mean she is cognitive leap
2:47:18 > 2:47:2525 years old so why should her education be stopped?Nancy Doyle is
2:47:25 > 2:47:30a chartered psychologist. She has been working on the programme
2:47:30 > 2:47:36Employable Me, looking at how people with learning disabilities and
2:47:36 > 2:47:40physical disabilities get back into the workplace. Thank you for your
2:47:40 > 2:47:46time this morning. I know every story is different and that's one of
2:47:46 > 2:47:50the things we have been learning this week, individual stories and
2:47:50 > 2:47:53requirements and needs. If there is a theme to the problems they face,
2:47:53 > 2:47:58what is it?I think one of the themes is that there is a huge focus
2:47:58 > 2:48:02on what people can't do, so any diagnostic process and any process
2:48:02 > 2:48:07you have to go through to get an education or health care plan is
2:48:07 > 2:48:11really, really focused on difficulties, deficits and problems.
2:48:11 > 2:48:14At the end of that process people are left with very little hope and
2:48:14 > 2:48:19very little confidence.We heard in the peace we ran before you, Nancy,
2:48:19 > 2:48:26in the film, that Ben is aspiring and having work experience at the
2:48:26 > 2:48:31moment but aspires to have a job in a posh hotel. Knows were his words.
2:48:31 > 2:48:37One of the issues is who will support him? Were other resources to
2:48:37 > 2:48:40enable him -- where are the resources to enable him to have a
2:48:40 > 2:48:47job?There are lots of resources for people in work, access to work and
2:48:47 > 2:48:51providing funding and support workers, providing coaches, and
2:48:51 > 2:48:54advice to employers. Employers want to get involved in disability
2:48:54 > 2:48:58employment but they sometimes feel embarrassed, they are not sure what
2:48:58 > 2:49:01they are allowed to do and what they are allowed to ask and when we
2:49:01 > 2:49:04provide practical advice we can encourage employers to take a bit of
2:49:04 > 2:49:09responsibility for this, and in return what they get us very loyal,
2:49:09 > 2:49:12very committed members of their team, people who aren't going to
2:49:12 > 2:49:15leave after six months, people who are going to be really, really happy
2:49:15 > 2:49:20to have been given a chance.One of the problems I know many disabled
2:49:20 > 2:49:24people face is at the stage when applying for a job, whether or not
2:49:24 > 2:49:29to disclose whether you have a disability, and I noticed in your
2:49:29 > 2:49:33programme which I loved, is that one of the recruiter said no, don't put
2:49:33 > 2:49:39it. That's pretty shocking, isn't it?To be honest, I disagree. I
2:49:39 > 2:49:47think actually, it can be a real advantage. Having a disability can
2:49:47 > 2:49:51be the perfect answer to the strengths and weaknesses question we
2:49:51 > 2:49:55all get asked. I have this condition but it doesn't affect my memory, for
2:49:55 > 2:50:01example. In next week's programme we will meet somebody who is visually
2:50:01 > 2:50:04impaired but has the most amazing memory so it gives them an
2:50:04 > 2:50:07opportunity to talk about that. When they talk about their weaknesses
2:50:07 > 2:50:11they can be very practical about it and say, well, these are the things
2:50:11 > 2:50:16I found difficult but this is what you need to do to support me.
2:50:16 > 2:50:20Somebody like Ryan from last week's programme needs a bit of space to
2:50:20 > 2:50:23let his kicks out and he can say that to an employer and an employer
2:50:23 > 2:50:28can say we can do that and it takes some of the worry out of -- ticks
2:50:28 > 2:50:35out.We have had so much view interaction as we have done this
2:50:35 > 2:50:39series. Sarah says she has a friend who has a deaf son who went to
2:50:39 > 2:50:42university to learn glass-making and since doing that he has not been
2:50:42 > 2:50:45able to get a job because people don't know how to communicate with
2:50:45 > 2:50:48him because he uses British sign language. What would be your advice
2:50:48 > 2:50:53to someone like that who is struggling?I think you have to
2:50:53 > 2:50:58select your employer carefully. One of the things about declaring a
2:50:58 > 2:51:00disability in the application process is you are going to find out
2:51:00 > 2:51:06who is prejudiced and who is not. That might limit your pool but if
2:51:06 > 2:51:10you find the right employer you will find the right job and finding work
2:51:10 > 2:51:14is a two-way process, it isn't just about somebody who will accept you,
2:51:14 > 2:51:17do someone who you will accept and who you feel you can work with.
2:51:17 > 2:51:21There are a of ways to communicate with people who are deaf and British
2:51:21 > 2:51:25sign language, and learning British sign language can be really fun, so
2:51:25 > 2:51:29it might be he finds an employer who recognises the value of his
2:51:29 > 2:51:33glass-making skills and really wants to put that effort in and that would
2:51:33 > 2:51:37be win for both people.Nancy, thank you for taking some time out this
2:51:37 > 2:51:41morning and thank you as well.
2:51:41 > 2:51:42Here's Matt with a look at this morning's weather.
2:51:46 > 2:51:49Good morning, it might be the first day of winter, already a Christmassy
2:51:49 > 2:51:54feel for some, this is the view in Scarborough recently, some heavy
2:51:54 > 2:51:58showers pushing through Yorkshire, East Yorkshire and some St Andrews
2:51:58 > 2:52:02day snow for some in the north and east of Scotland. Snow showers only
2:52:02 > 2:52:04affect a small portion of the country but they will have an impact
2:52:04 > 2:52:08on travel plans. Those wintry showers continue to push further
2:52:08 > 2:52:11inland across eastern England throughout the day. We have
2:52:11 > 2:52:16outbreaks of rain and sleet brushing off, across Wales and south-west
2:52:16 > 2:52:19England, and Northern Ireland, bit of sunshine in between. Either side
2:52:19 > 2:52:24of the country in between them we have a slice of sunshine, lots of
2:52:24 > 2:52:28sunshine for many, crisp and cold day, Arctic air is with us, whether
2:52:28 > 2:52:31you have sunshine or not it will be an afternoon where temperatures
2:52:31 > 2:52:38almost feel subzero, it feels like -3, -4 with the wind and showers in
2:52:38 > 2:52:41Scotland. Bright afternoon in Northern Ireland, looking day in
2:52:41 > 2:52:43south-west Scotland and not do that in north-west England but the
2:52:43 > 2:52:46showers in eastern England will get to the eastern portion of the
2:52:46 > 2:52:49Pennines into the East Midlands by the afternoon and rain around the
2:52:49 > 2:52:53coast by the stage. Sleet and hail inland and snow over the hills.
2:52:53 > 2:52:56Clouding over to the south-east of England from eastern England will
2:52:56 > 2:53:00feel like -3, -4. Showers in the west will be confined to
2:53:00 > 2:53:05Pembrokeshire and Cornwall later on. Overnight the showers continue to
2:53:05 > 2:53:09push in across eastern parts of England. A risk of ice into tomorrow
2:53:09 > 2:53:14morning. Temperatures just above freezing, the wind will make it feel
2:53:14 > 2:53:17colder. The rest of the country, widespread frost into Friday morning
2:53:17 > 2:53:21and where the snow is lying it could get as low as -10 in parts of
2:53:21 > 2:53:28Scotland. On Friday, still icy winds in England, a few showers, windy,
2:53:28 > 2:53:31rainy showers in the south-east corner, much of south-east England
2:53:31 > 2:53:34and Wales having a fine and bright day, cloudy for Scotland and
2:53:34 > 2:53:39Northern Ireland, splashes of rain, slowly turning milder and this
2:53:39 > 2:53:42weekend it turns cloudy with some rain but temperatures on the rise
2:53:42 > 2:53:46just a little. Back to Naga and Charlie.
2:53:49 > 2:53:56Thank you very much. Cold. Yes, could have done that in a word.
2:53:56 > 2:53:59The Northern Ireland Secretary has told Breakfast that the government
2:53:59 > 2:54:01recognises that the final Brexit deal will have to recognise
2:54:01 > 2:54:03the unique challenges posed by the Irish border.
2:54:03 > 2:54:06The Irish government and the EU have been pushing for Northern Ireland
2:54:06 > 2:54:08to remain inside the customs union and Single Market,
2:54:08 > 2:54:10even if the rest of the UK leaves.
2:54:10 > 2:54:12That's now the main sticking point stopping Brexit negotiations
2:54:12 > 2:54:13from moving on to trade.
2:54:13 > 2:54:17Chris Buckler has been looking at the challenges.
2:54:17 > 2:54:21For many months now, politicians have been huddled
2:54:21 > 2:54:23in Brexit negotiations, the UK and the EU both
2:54:23 > 2:54:27pushing their priorities.
2:54:27 > 2:54:30And what is decided on one of the key issues will have quite
2:54:30 > 2:54:32an impact here.
2:54:32 > 2:54:35The Derry Donegal Vipers are an Irish-American football team,
2:54:35 > 2:54:40and their players come from both Northern Ireland and the Republic.
2:54:40 > 2:54:43Our whole team is split almost down the middle,
2:54:43 > 2:54:46from either side of the border, which is great.
2:54:46 > 2:54:49A key question is, what will happen to that border after Brexit?
2:54:49 > 2:54:52In the future, is it possible that people will have
2:54:52 > 2:54:54to negotiate their way through customs posts as they once
2:54:54 > 2:54:57did in the past?
2:54:57 > 2:55:00A hard border would make it difficult, because you pretty much
2:55:00 > 2:55:03have to go through customs checks to go to training a couple
2:55:03 > 2:55:04of times a week.
2:55:04 > 2:55:06They'll think you're suspicious carrying these big bags
2:55:06 > 2:55:08and helmets across.
2:55:09 > 2:55:12That is a journey many take on a daily basis.
2:55:12 > 2:55:14Some are wondering what their morning commute will be
2:55:14 > 2:55:23like in the future.
2:55:23 > 2:55:27Everybody says they do not want a hard border, but the detail of not
2:55:27 > 2:55:29having a hard border, it has never been clearly
2:55:29 > 2:55:30defined for me.
2:55:30 > 2:55:40She lives in County Donegal, and every day crosses the border
2:55:40 > 2:55:43to go to a job as a principal of a school in Londonderry.
2:55:43 > 2:55:45This is an old customs post right here.
2:55:45 > 2:55:51That was the place where you were stopped.
2:55:51 > 2:55:54It is a 15 Minute Drive.
2:55:54 > 2:55:56Her concerns about a hard border go beyond potential traffic delays.
2:55:56 > 2:56:02The community is quite seamless.
2:56:02 > 2:56:03The community is quite seamless.
2:56:03 > 2:56:06A lot of talk about the economy, and the impact on the economy.
2:56:06 > 2:56:09Much less the social fabric on the society of a border people,
2:56:09 > 2:56:10which we are.
2:56:10 > 2:56:13Many cross the border regularly to go to school, even hospital.
2:56:13 > 2:56:15They said that the British Government has been too late
2:56:15 > 2:56:23in recognising the true impact of Brexiteer.
2:56:23 > 2:56:25They're not thinking about the consequences of Brexit.
2:56:25 > 2:56:33The consequences for people who have become used,
2:56:33 > 2:56:41and have mortgages and kids in college, based upon a livelihood
2:56:41 > 2:56:43which appreciates the fact that you can move across
2:56:43 > 2:56:45the island without tariffs.
2:56:45 > 2:56:48The biggest obstacle to ensuring there are no obstacles on the many
2:56:48 > 2:56:50border bridges and roads are to do with customs.
2:56:50 > 2:56:54The EU says if Northern Ireland was to stick to the same economic
2:56:54 > 2:56:56rules, the issue would be solved.
2:56:56 > 2:56:58The Prime Minister has been very clear in saying that,
2:56:58 > 2:57:01as we leave the European Union, we leave the single market
2:57:01 > 2:57:04and we leave the customs union.
2:57:04 > 2:57:07But we know there need to be specific outcomes to meet the unique
2:57:07 > 2:57:10circumstances of Northern Ireland, and the island of Ireland
2:57:10 > 2:57:11as a whole.
2:57:11 > 2:57:17That sounds like a desire to deal.
2:57:17 > 2:57:20Particularly as the Irish government have the ability to block Brexit
2:57:20 > 2:57:21talks from moving on.
2:57:21 > 2:57:23They want guarantees about the border.
2:57:23 > 2:57:26That means there will be more clashes to come.
2:57:26 > 2:57:29Chris Buckler, BBC News at the Irish border.
2:57:29 > 2:57:33Chris is in Strabane this morning and we can talk to him now.
2:57:33 > 2:57:38Chris Como you are on a long journey today to tell us all about the
2:57:38 > 2:57:41issues people are facing, who either live either side of the border and
2:57:41 > 2:57:49work the other side.Yes, indeed. If you take a look behind me, Basta
2:57:49 > 2:57:52Republic of Ireland over there and we are standing in Northern Ireland,
2:57:52 > 2:57:57that is Lippett and this is Strabane so you get a sense of how close the
2:57:57 > 2:58:02two places are but beyond that, how close the communities are, so today
2:58:02 > 2:58:06on BBC news throughout the day we are going to go along the 300 miles
2:58:06 > 2:58:12of this border and talk to people about the impact of this. Lifford.
2:58:12 > 2:58:16Of course it depends on the Brexit deal and you got a sense from the
2:58:16 > 2:58:19Northern Ireland Secretary that they are prepared to deal. There are
2:58:19 > 2:58:22reports this morning that the British government is already
2:58:22 > 2:58:27talking to the Irish government and the EU about potentially putting in
2:58:27 > 2:58:31place trade rules which ensure there is no divergences on a number of
2:58:31 > 2:58:34issues between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, that of
2:58:34 > 2:58:37course depends on Northern Ireland having its own government and of
2:58:37 > 2:58:41course at the moment power-sharing has collapsed so there is lots of
2:58:41 > 2:58:46challenges in the Brexit negotiation, not just between the EU
2:58:46 > 2:58:49and the UK.Certainly. Chris, where are you travelling to today? You
2:58:49 > 2:58:56have 300 miles to go.Yes, we started up in Derry and we are
2:58:56 > 2:59:00travelling to Strabane somewhere else at lunchtime and somewhere else
2:59:00 > 2:59:06at tea-time and just above the Belfast Dublin Road by ten o'clock
2:59:06 > 2:59:09tonight. It's going to be a long trip but I will talk to plenty of
2:59:09 > 2:59:15people along the way.Thank you, Chris. The time is 8:59am.
2:59:15 > 2:59:17Blue Planet II has been mesmerizing audiences by revealing the beautiful
2:59:17 > 2:59:20and sometimes bizarre creatures that live in our oceans.
2:59:20 > 2:59:22In this Sunday's episode we will see two worlds collide,
2:59:22 > 2:59:23where the sea meets the land.
2:59:23 > 2:59:25We'll speak to the Bafta-award winning producer behind
2:59:25 > 2:59:35the programme in just a minute, but first let's take a look.
2:59:36 > 2:59:42The Moray eel.
2:59:42 > 2:59:56It is a specialist crab hunter. The crab's deadliest enemy. To feed, the
2:59:56 > 3:00:14crabs must keep going. But nowhere is safe. An octopus, also a crab
3:00:14 > 3:00:28killer. The crabs make a dash for it.
3:00:32 > 3:00:37We're joined now by producer Miles Barton.
3:00:37 > 3:00:43You had the job of making people feel sorry for crabs?I think the
3:00:43 > 3:00:48little creatures in the world are ones that are taken for granted. We
3:00:48 > 3:00:52see crabs on the shore and say, who cares about them? But they have
3:00:52 > 3:00:56lives to lead, these guys have to run the gauntlet of these horrendous
3:00:56 > 3:01:01predators every single day of their lives, and I think to bring that
3:01:01 > 3:01:04experience to life, which they are doing on an hourly basis, every few
3:01:04 > 3:01:08hours they have to go out on the tide, they get attacked by these
3:01:08 > 3:01:13predators.People will probably recognise some of the creatures you
3:01:13 > 3:01:20are talking about, who are the creatures they are trying to avoid?
3:01:20 > 3:01:24The crabs are the stars of our sequence but the guys lurking in the
3:01:24 > 3:01:29pool of the moray eel, and metre long creature. We had gone out to
3:01:29 > 3:01:32film the moray eel, that is what we expected to film, and what happens
3:01:32 > 3:01:37is you see a splash way off in the distance, you rush down as fast as
3:01:37 > 3:01:40possible, we had two teams, the fast response team, the younger members
3:01:40 > 3:01:46of the team, if I may say so, carrying the camera, start filming.
3:01:46 > 3:01:51I bring up the rear with a big camera and tripod and the main
3:01:51 > 3:01:55cameraman, then we would form the action. Sometimes we filmed it from
3:01:55 > 3:02:01two cameras and the crucial moment was when the Eagles would leave the
3:02:01 > 3:02:06water and actually pluck the crabs off the rocks.Even as you were
3:02:06 > 3:02:11filming the sequence, some of these creatures were trying to grab the
3:02:11 > 3:02:16camera people's legs?What we discovered, after a while spending
3:02:16 > 3:02:21time trying to find the eels, we would be walking along and suddenly
3:02:21 > 3:02:25find your ankle was rapped by eight little tentacles and you looked down
3:02:25 > 3:02:29and it was quite a shock, you would realise there is an octopus trying
3:02:29 > 3:02:34to grab you, because the octopus is there is well trying to catch the
3:02:34 > 3:02:37crabs, so any movement above and they grab it, whether it is a crab
3:02:37 > 3:02:42this big or a human this big, they are plucky little creatures. So what
3:02:42 > 3:02:47we ended up with was two predators for the price of one, so it was a
3:02:47 > 3:02:53rather satisfactory and.The stories you come up with, or you show us,
3:02:53 > 3:02:59are just so fantastic. We have got jumping fish as well to talk about?
3:02:59 > 3:03:02Wonderful, probably the most terrestrial fish on land, they spend
3:03:02 > 3:03:07most of their time out of the water, they even seem to fear water, so
3:03:07 > 3:03:11when a wave comes in they all lead the other way. They have got a
3:03:11 > 3:03:16totally novel method of motion.But they are definitely fish, classed as
3:03:16 > 3:03:21fish?Yes, they bend their tails and flicked away from the waves, as you
3:03:21 > 3:03:28see. They just leap, but not with their limbs, as it were, but with
3:03:28 > 3:03:32their tails. It is a bit of a love story because there was a particular
3:03:32 > 3:03:37male who was guarding his nest hole, then every time a female would go by
3:03:37 > 3:03:41he would turn black, display his orange dorsal fin and desperately
3:03:41 > 3:03:45dance up and down, he thinks he is doing a seductive dance, it looks a
3:03:45 > 3:03:52bit comic to us, but, with luck, he attracted the female into his hole
3:03:52 > 3:03:56to lay their eggs.Some of the creatures you are focusing on maybe
3:03:56 > 3:04:00once we think we know a lot about, penguins for example. There has been
3:04:00 > 3:04:04a lot of wildlife stub about penguins but the joy of Blue Planet
3:04:04 > 3:04:092 is you find new things out about creatures we thought we knew.This
3:04:09 > 3:04:14was a new take on the penguins, we had been to this speech before,
3:04:14 > 3:04:18myself, in South Georgia, and the penguins have this struggle to get
3:04:18 > 3:04:24past what we can easily describe as the biggest ball of blubber in the
3:04:24 > 3:04:28world, 5000 elephant seals lined the beach and these penguins have to
3:04:28 > 3:04:32pick their way through. I have been there and picking your way through
3:04:32 > 3:04:37these animals that weigh tonnes, and if they get angry and start
3:04:37 > 3:04:41attacking each other, they will go straight through you, so the poor
3:04:41 > 3:04:47old penguins, game, every day they have to negotiate this wall of
3:04:47 > 3:04:51blubber.Negotiate a wall of blubber, fantastic. Thank you so
3:04:51 > 3:04:58much for joining us. Blue Planet 2 on BBC One at 8pm on Sunday evening,
3:04:58 > 3:05:04thank you so much for talking to us. It is 9:04am, we will chat to the
3:05:04 > 3:05:08man who has soundtracks of the most famous moment on Strictly in a
3:05:08 > 3:05:10moment, the finger behind the scenes, they don't get the credit
3:05:10 > 3:06:46they deserve. No, they are fabulous. First, a look
3:06:46 > 3:06:48they deserve. the BBC London newsroom in half an
3:06:48 > 3:06:52hour, plenty more on the website, but now it is back to Charlie Stayt
3:06:52 > 3:06:56and Naga Munchetty. Goodbye.
3:07:00 > 3:07:03Millions of us tune in every weekend to see the stars strut their stuff
3:07:03 > 3:07:05on the Strictly dance floor, but the performances wouldn't
3:07:05 > 3:07:07be nearly as special without the fantastic live music
3:07:07 > 3:07:08which accompanies them.
3:07:08 > 3:07:11Our next guest may not be the show's most famous face,
3:07:11 > 3:07:13but without question he is one of its best-known voices.
3:07:13 > 3:07:23Tommy Blaize is a singer in the Strictly Come Dancing big
3:07:29 > 3:07:32band, and he's also worked with some of the biggest names in music.
3:07:32 > 3:07:35Let's have listen to him doing what he does best.
3:07:35 > 3:07:35# I...
3:07:35 > 3:07:37# I'm so in love with you.
3:07:37 > 3:07:39# Whatever you want me to.
3:07:39 > 3:07:44# Is alright with me.
3:07:44 > 3:07:52# Cos you make me feel so brand new.
3:07:52 > 3:08:02# I want to spend my whole life with you, yeah.
3:08:03 > 3:08:06# Let me say that since.
3:08:06 > 3:08:10# Since we've been together, baby.
3:08:10 > 3:08:21# Loving you forever is what I need...#.
3:08:26 > 3:08:30One of those songs, Tommy, that it seems a shame to interrupt!
3:08:30 > 3:08:35Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Welcome, by the way. It is a real
3:08:35 > 3:08:38discipline, what you do, just explain to people, the beginning of
3:08:38 > 3:08:41the week presumably you are presented with a load of songs that
3:08:41 > 3:08:45you are going to sing?On average at the beginning of the series when
3:08:45 > 3:08:50there are lots of contestants we get 14, 17 songs a week, we are given
3:08:50 > 3:08:57the songs on the Monday morning and we allocate who will be singing and
3:08:57 > 3:09:01we just try and learn the lead vocals during the week, we get
3:09:01 > 3:09:04together with the band on Friday evening for a few hours, then
3:09:04 > 3:09:10Saturday morning we just hit it as much as we can and go through it all
3:09:10 > 3:09:13with the dancers and check everything is right before we go to
3:09:13 > 3:09:18air.But in terms of artistic interpretation, you are limited to
3:09:18 > 3:09:23some extent, argue?Yes, you have to stick to the edits.Because of the
3:09:23 > 3:09:28weight Strictly works?Yes, the dancers choreographed everything to
3:09:28 > 3:09:31the music so you don't want to put the wrong lyric in the wrong place
3:09:31 > 3:09:35or go off and ad-lib, it has to be more role as what they have danced
3:09:35 > 3:09:40to all week.When I was on the programme, I noticed some songs
3:09:40 > 3:09:43which you have traditionally heard men singing, you put a female lead
3:09:43 > 3:09:51on there, some songs you change from 3-4 to 4-4, from normal beats two
3:09:51 > 3:09:55adults, for example, so how did you decide...We never decide that, that
3:09:55 > 3:09:59is done by production and we are given the edits, Dave Arce is
3:09:59 > 3:10:04meticulous and copies everything as he hears it so we are given those
3:10:04 > 3:10:08songs in 3-4 with a female version and we just...Do you ever you ever
3:10:08 > 3:10:13say no?No, we enjoy the challenge of singing something different every
3:10:13 > 3:10:19week.Always makes me laugh, Dave Arce, is he the band leader?Musical
3:10:19 > 3:10:29director.That wave he does, it always looks a bit awkward to me,
3:10:29 > 3:10:32like you doesn't really want to waive!He is quite shy, into his
3:10:32 > 3:10:37music and everything else, the other stuff is uncomfortable for him
3:10:37 > 3:10:42sometimes! His wave is getting better every week!One of the great
3:10:42 > 3:10:45things about working on Strictly is the people you meet in terms of,
3:10:45 > 3:10:51Anastasia was on, this year we have Alexandra Burke, another great
3:10:51 > 3:10:55musician, and you get a glimpse of their world and work with them as
3:10:55 > 3:10:57well, Amy Whitehouse you have worked with, what are the highlights for
3:10:57 > 3:11:05you?I was lucky to grace the stage when we sang at Nelson Mandela's
3:11:05 > 3:11:1190th birthday party, we got to play with Amy Whitehouse, Stevie wonder,
3:11:11 > 3:11:16all these different people, Queen, said it has been fantastic.To say
3:11:16 > 3:11:21you have been on stage with Steve the Wonder and Amy Whitehouse.
3:11:21 > 3:11:28Another favourite of yours was thinking You'll Never Walk Alone. We
3:11:28 > 3:11:37will show it and then you can say why it was so important.
3:11:37 > 3:11:45# And you'll never walk alone. # You'll never walk...
3:11:45 > 3:11:54# Alone. So, Simon Rimmer bouncing there with
3:11:54 > 3:11:58his partner, but it meant so much to so many people, such an evocative
3:11:58 > 3:12:03song?Me being a Scouser, I am really proud of that song, I'm a big
3:12:03 > 3:12:08Liverpool fan as well so to get to be able to sing that song, for me,
3:12:08 > 3:12:11was really, really special, and after I did that I was invited to
3:12:11 > 3:12:15Anfield to have a little poor round, so it was even more special for me.
3:12:15 > 3:12:20You have got your own album out now, is it a whole different thing from
3:12:20 > 3:12:27being part of a bigger band, to put yourself front and centre?It is, I
3:12:27 > 3:12:33have always done that, even before Strictly, so when Strictly came
3:12:33 > 3:12:37along it took a back-seat, if you like, and all of a sudden I am being
3:12:37 > 3:12:40pushed forward to do this album and it is lovely, it is songs that have
