0:00:06 > 0:00:07Hello - this is Breakfast,

0:00:07 > 0:00:09with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12Children as young as 10 stressed out by social media.

0:00:12 > 0:00:15Parents and teachers are warned it's time to take action.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17The Children's Commissioner for England says too

0:00:17 > 0:00:19many pupils are ill-equipped for the "emotional demands"

0:00:19 > 0:00:33of their online lives.

0:00:45 > 0:00:50Good morning it's Thursday 4th January.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52Also this morning:

0:00:52 > 0:00:55Jeremy Hunt apologises as A and E departments struggle to cope.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58We'll look at what solutions might help ease the strain on the NHS

0:00:58 > 0:00:59right across the UK.

0:00:59 > 0:01:03Donald Trump turns on the man who helped him to the White House,

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Steve Bannon, after he accuses the President's son of treason.

0:01:06 > 0:01:13The leader of Windsor council calls for police to tackle what he calls

0:01:13 > 0:01:16"aggressive begging" in the town before Prince Harry

0:01:16 > 0:01:18and Meghan Markle get married there in May.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Raising wages COULD be putting jobs at risk -

0:01:20 > 0:01:23as employers look to replace staff with automated systems and robotics.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26I've come to this state of the art paint factory in Ashington

0:01:26 > 0:01:30near Newcastle to find out if new tech is good or bad

0:01:30 > 0:01:30for jobs.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32In sport, England falter after a promising start

0:01:32 > 0:01:35on the opening day of the Fifth Test.

0:01:35 > 0:01:41Alastair Cook is one of three wickets to fall in Sydney,

0:01:41 > 0:01:42England currently 155/3.

0:01:42 > 0:01:47And Matt has the weather.

0:01:47 > 0:01:52Not only do we have more rain in the forecast but a severe spell of

0:01:52 > 0:01:55gales. All the details of the next 15 minutes.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58First, our main story.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Children as young as 11 are becomming increasingly dependent

0:02:01 > 0:02:05on social media likes and comments in order to feel popular and fit in.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07A new study by the Children's Commissioner

0:02:07 > 0:02:09for England found that children become increasingly anxious

0:02:09 > 0:02:12about their online image as they get older and are unprepared for how

0:02:12 > 0:02:15social media use changes as they get older.

0:02:15 > 0:02:24Elaine Dunkley reports.

0:02:24 > 0:02:28Pounds and children, the right challenges of growing up in a

0:02:28 > 0:02:36digital age. -- in the hands of children. Reported today called Life

0:02:36 > 0:02:40in Likes, many children in secondary school are struggling to handle

0:02:40 > 0:02:44social media as the world expands.I feel pressured because my friends do

0:02:44 > 0:02:49it so I had to do it to begin.You see people getting bullied on social

0:02:49 > 0:02:55media, they don't their parents. If you don't tell them, they will never

0:02:55 > 0:03:00find out.The rice -- the report shows that as children move schools,

0:03:00 > 0:03:05the way they use social media changes. Instead of playing games,

0:03:05 > 0:03:08getting the likes and comments becomes important and worryingly

0:03:08 > 0:03:14they also adapt their offline behaviour to fit an on line image.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18It is a huge pressure on children at a time when there is immense

0:03:18 > 0:03:22pressure in our life anyway from moving to a new school and knowing

0:03:22 > 0:03:28that is something we need to do more about.Secondary school can be a

0:03:28 > 0:03:33difficult time, when young people feel pressured to fit in. Today's

0:03:33 > 0:03:37report feels a generation could grow up feeling insecure and unable to

0:03:37 > 0:03:41cope if left to their own devices.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43And we'll be talking to the Children's Commissioner

0:03:43 > 0:03:44for England Anne Longfield in around an hour here on Breakfast.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54NHS England will today reveal how hospitals performed over

0:03:54 > 0:03:57the notoriously busy period between Christmas and New Year's

0:03:57 > 0:03:57Eve.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01The latest statistics will cover the start of an intense

0:04:01 > 0:04:03period of pressure across the service.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06There are reports of overcrowding in hospitals and warnings

0:04:06 > 0:04:07about patient safety being compromised.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Our Health Editor Hugh Pym reports.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13The weekly figures from NHS England covering the last seven days in

0:04:13 > 0:04:17December will include the proportion of hospital beds occupied, the

0:04:17 > 0:04:21number of accident and emergency units which had to divert ambulances

0:04:21 > 0:04:27and serious flu cases. NHS leaders safely was on the increase in our

0:04:27 > 0:04:31concern is a major outbreak will develop, putting more pressure on a

0:04:31 > 0:04:35system under strain. The figure is no longer include hospitals of the

0:04:35 > 0:04:41highest of alert, indicating they are struggling to cope. The BBC

0:04:41 > 0:04:46found 20 have been at that level this week as opposed to a handful of

0:04:46 > 0:04:51the same time last year.I want to apologise for the fact that we have

0:04:51 > 0:04:55had to postpone a number of operations. We are trying to do it

0:04:55 > 0:04:59differently. Last year, we cancel a lot of operations at the very last

0:04:59 > 0:05:05minute. People got a call to say the operation was not going ahead. That

0:05:05 > 0:05:11is very undesirable. We've got to do it in a much more planned way.When

0:05:11 > 0:05:15you have ambulances backed up, hospitals say in our overcrowded,

0:05:15 > 0:05:20people waiting for hours and hours on trolleys, it is a crisis and it

0:05:20 > 0:05:25is because seven years of underfunding and cuts. The

0:05:25 > 0:05:30government is burying their head in the sand.Tens of thousands of non-

0:05:30 > 0:05:34urgent operations will be cancelled this month to allow senior doctors

0:05:34 > 0:05:39to deal with emergencies, creating a backlog, adding to a lengthening

0:05:39 > 0:05:43waiting lists for operations like me and hip replacements.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46And we'll be looking at the issues facing hospitals across the UK

0:05:46 > 0:05:52this winter a little later in the programme.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55President Trump has accused his former chief strategist

0:05:55 > 0:05:58of 'losing his mind', after he lost his job at the White

0:05:58 > 0:05:58House.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Steve Bannon has been quoted in a new book saying

0:06:01 > 0:06:03that the President's son Donald Jr was "treasonous"

0:06:03 > 0:06:04for meeting with Russians.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Bannon, was one of the President's closest advisors

0:06:07 > 0:06:10until last year and helped shape Mr Trump's "America First" campaign

0:06:10 > 0:06:12message before he left his post last year.

0:06:12 > 0:06:17Our North America correspondent Peter Bowes reports.

0:06:17 > 0:06:35They were once as thick as thieves.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38But his job as chief strategist was short-lived and he returned

0:06:38 > 0:06:41to his previous position as the head of rightwing outlet Breitbart News.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43He promised to be the president's wingman outside

0:06:43 > 0:06:45but this reveals a different story.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48The most damaging claim is that Steve Bannon watched a meeting

0:06:48 > 0:06:51between Donald Trump Junior and a bunch of Russian lawyers

0:06:51 > 0:06:52during the campaign and considered it

0:06:52 > 0:06:53treasonous.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55Also a meeting between Paul Manaforte and Jared Kushner.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57"The three senior guys in the campaign thought

0:06:57 > 0:07:00it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government

0:07:00 > 0:07:04inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor with no

0:07:04 > 0:07:06lawyers" Bannon is quoted as saying.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09He then said that after the meeting they should have called the FBI

0:07:09 > 0:07:11immediately.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14The President has hit back in a scathing statement.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Sarah Huckabee Sanders has condemned the contents of the book

0:07:22 > 0:07:24as completely untrue.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27I think it is a ridiculous accusation and I am sure

0:07:27 > 0:07:31we have addressed previously.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34The book also says the Steve Bannon believes the Russians were taken

0:07:34 > 0:07:36after the meeting to meet Donald Trump.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38The President has always denied that happened.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40With the ongoing investigation into possible Russian

0:07:40 > 0:07:42interference in the presidential election, this explosive row

0:07:42 > 0:07:46between Donald Trump and his once trusted

0:07:46 > 0:07:55ally has left Washington stunned.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58The council leader in Windsor has called for action to tackle

0:07:58 > 0:08:01aggressive begging ahead of the wedding of Prince Harry

0:08:01 > 0:08:03and Meghan Markle in the town later this year.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06Councillor Simon Dudley has written an open letter

0:08:06 > 0:08:08to the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner,

0:08:08 > 0:08:11asking him to address an "epidemic of rough sleeping and vagrancy".

0:08:11 > 0:08:19Our correspondent Jon Donnison is in Windsor this morning.

0:08:19 > 0:08:30Take it through this story., it is the police and crime commission of

0:08:30 > 0:08:34Thames Valley Police, also copied into the Prime Minister and the Home

0:08:34 > 0:08:37Secretary. Simon Dudley said there was a problem with oppressive

0:08:37 > 0:08:42banking and intimidation in Windsor. He said many of the people begging

0:08:42 > 0:08:47in the town were not actually homeless and those that were were

0:08:47 > 0:08:52doing so, and I quote, because of a voluntary choice, because they had

0:08:52 > 0:08:57chosen not to use the council services. The council leader urged

0:08:57 > 0:09:01something be done before the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

0:09:01 > 0:09:07here at Windsor Castle. I should say that homeless charities here have

0:09:07 > 0:09:12reacted pretty angrily, one homeless charity worker calling these

0:09:12 > 0:09:17comments is sickening and disputing the idea that anyone really would

0:09:17 > 0:09:31choose to be homeless. On a night like that, that rings pretty true.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34UK farmers are to receive the same level of subsidies they currently do

0:09:34 > 0:09:36from the EU for five years after Brexit.

0:09:36 > 0:09:41The Environment Secretary, Michael Gove, is set to announce

0:09:41 > 0:09:44that the payments - worth £3 billion a year -

0:09:44 > 0:09:47will then be replaced by a system to encourage environmental

0:09:47 > 0:09:49improvements, such as rewards for opening up the countryside

0:09:49 > 0:09:50to the public.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Australian recovery teams have started to raise the wreckage

0:09:52 > 0:09:55of a seaplane that crashed into a river near Sydney,

0:09:55 > 0:09:56killing six people.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Richard Cousins, chairman of the Compass catering

0:09:58 > 0:10:01group, died alongside four members of his family and a Canadian pilot

0:10:01 > 0:10:03when the plane crashed into the Hawkesbury River

0:10:03 > 0:10:08on New Year's Eve.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11Investigators have revealed that a plane with the same serial number

0:10:11 > 0:10:21was also involved in a fatal crash in 1996.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24A group on a snowmobile tour in western Canada might have been

0:10:24 > 0:10:26hoping to spot some wildlife amongst the snowdrifts,

0:10:26 > 0:10:29but they certainly weren't expecting to see this.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Here you can see the head of a moose peeping out

0:10:32 > 0:10:33from beneath the powder.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36It became trapped in deep snow, but the group came to its rescue.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39You'll be pleased to hear that they managed to dig it free

0:10:39 > 0:10:42and after around 15 minutes the uninjured moose was back

0:10:42 > 0:10:53on the loose.

0:10:53 > 0:11:01That is a very nice thought. Good morning. You would then had to get

0:11:01 > 0:11:05away very quickly because ministers can charge. That was a gratefulness

0:11:05 > 0:11:17for being rescued. -- moose. Is it moose or just moose? The plural?

0:11:17 > 0:11:24Moose. It was raining earlier on in Sydney. We had to wait seven hours

0:11:24 > 0:11:28before the fifth test could get under way.

0:11:28 > 0:11:36All it does is Ranger in the test at the moment. The Ashes are gone. If

0:11:36 > 0:11:44they could just get one win. England's cricketers are now

0:11:44 > 0:11:54faltering.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56After a promising start, England's cricketers have faltered

0:11:56 > 0:11:59on the opening day of the Fifth Test in Sydney.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02They won the toss, chose to bat and were 88/1.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04Until they lost, both James Vince and then Alastair

0:12:04 > 0:12:04Cook.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Cook was out for 39 after he was given out,

0:12:07 > 0:12:08l.b.w under the review system.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12England's hopes now rest on captain Joe Root he and Dawid Malan

0:12:12 > 0:12:13are at the crease.

0:12:13 > 0:12:14Root is 43 not out.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16England are 161 for 3.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19There was plenty of drama at the Emirates as Arsenal

0:12:19 > 0:12:21and Chelsea played out a thrilling 2-2 draw.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Hector Bellerin's injury time equaliser gave the Gunners a point.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27A win would have moved Chelsea above Manchester United but the draw

0:12:27 > 0:12:29leaves them third in the Premier League table.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30West Brom have defended their midfielder

0:12:30 > 0:12:34Jake Livermore after he confronted a West Ham fan on Tuesday night

0:12:34 > 0:12:37in response to taunts about the death of his infant

0:12:37 > 0:12:37son in 2014.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39They say "all right-minded football supporters could

0:12:39 > 0:12:40understand this reaction".

0:12:40 > 0:12:50West Ham are currently investigating.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53With doubts, over several of the big names from the men's game,

0:12:53 > 0:12:56taking part in this year's Australian Open, the World number

0:12:56 > 0:12:5822, Kei Nishikori, has withdrawn from the tournament

0:12:58 > 0:12:59with a wrist problem.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and Rafa Nadal are all struggling

0:13:02 > 0:13:07with injury ahead of the event in Melbourne.

0:13:07 > 0:13:14Also, in the last hour, the British number one Johanna Konta has

0:13:14 > 0:13:20withdrawn with a hip injury. Injury plagued tennis. We were

0:13:20 > 0:13:27talking about moose earlier. To you know what a moose sounds like?

0:13:27 > 0:13:31Talking of animal noises, see if you can guess what this is. Close your

0:13:31 > 0:13:45eyes. (CROWING). It is an owl. It is a baby something. It is the sound of

0:13:45 > 0:13:50the first polar bear cub born in the UK in 25 years.I would never have

0:13:50 > 0:13:55guessed that.The reason the sound is so significant, born at Highland

0:13:55 > 0:13:59wildlife Park in Scotland, hasn't left its mother's side and the

0:13:59 > 0:14:03reason the sound is so significant is that is the only evidence they

0:14:03 > 0:14:07have that the cub exists because they haven't seen it.You can't go

0:14:07 > 0:14:12in, they have bad immune systems. There is a great risk of infection.

0:14:12 > 0:14:19You've got to wait until they come out. How do you know that? I was

0:14:19 > 0:14:24very interested in this story.I listened on the radio. They may be

0:14:24 > 0:14:29assumptions made from the sound. We are going to catch up with some of

0:14:29 > 0:14:35the team who can tell us more.

0:14:35 > 0:14:41Arctic weather, perhaps Klose Matt has the latest with what is in

0:14:41 > 0:14:47store.Yes, cold air is on the way for the end of the week into the

0:14:47 > 0:14:50weekend. More storms to come today across the south once again. At the

0:14:50 > 0:14:56moment we have big temperature contrasts across the UK. 13 in the

0:14:56 > 0:15:00south-west, -1 in Aberdeenshire. In between, rain to start in Northern

0:15:00 > 0:15:00south-west, -1 in Aberdeenshire. In between, rain to start in Northern

0:15:00 > 0:15:05Ireland. Stretching into northern England and across southern areas.

0:15:05 > 0:15:16It is turning light and patchy. Skies will brighten. 70- 75mph. The

0:15:16 > 0:15:21area of rain and hill snow will push north through the day. Increasing

0:15:21 > 0:15:25snow into Scotland after a dry start. Parts of the north will be

0:15:25 > 0:15:28dry throughout. Sunny spells in Orkney & Shetland. Cloudy elsewhere.

0:15:28 > 0:15:35From central southern Scotland, moving southwards, we will see rain

0:15:35 > 0:15:39here in the afternoon, snow over high ground and it will be bright in

0:15:39 > 0:15:43the south-west of Northern Ireland. To the north-east it will be wet.

0:15:43 > 0:15:48Wind strengthening around Liverpool Bay. 60 mph here. Widespread gales

0:15:48 > 0:15:51around the southern half of the country into the afternoon. That

0:15:51 > 0:15:56could bring some rough seas around the west. And while the wind eases

0:15:56 > 0:16:00down in the evening, it will strengthen into the night in the

0:16:00 > 0:16:05south-west. Severe gales possible. More rain in the south. The area of

0:16:05 > 0:16:10rain sits across southern Scotland. Clear skies in between. Touch of

0:16:10 > 0:16:14frost here and there. Temperatures above freezing into Friday. Tomorrow

0:16:14 > 0:16:19it is a cool day across the country. It is quite breezy and around the

0:16:19 > 0:16:23English Channel. Sunshine and showers in the southern half of the

0:16:23 > 0:16:27country. Cloudy with outbreaks of rain and hill snow. Rainfall is

0:16:27 > 0:16:35hotting up. Showers to the north and east. And it is set to get colder

0:16:35 > 0:16:40still. Into the weekend, we develop some Arctic wind across the country

0:16:40 > 0:16:44to begin with. Strong winds at that. We have some rain across the south

0:16:44 > 0:16:48to contend with. It will be raw feeling. Showers will turn wintry

0:16:48 > 0:16:52into eastern Scotland and north-east England. Sunshine to the north-west

0:16:52 > 0:16:56of the country. The wind will have a big impact. Single figures on the

0:16:56 > 0:17:04thermometer, it will feel closer to freezing. And to take us through

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Saturday night into Sunday, we continue with strong together force

0:17:07 > 0:17:10winds across southern areas of the country but high pressure building

0:17:10 > 0:17:14in. So while we will still be feeling the effects of the cold

0:17:14 > 0:17:18weather, especially at night in Scotland, Northern Ireland and

0:17:18 > 0:17:21England, temperatures not rising much at least on Sunday most will

0:17:21 > 0:17:26have some sunshine. Certainly over the next 36 hours more strong winds

0:17:26 > 0:17:32to come, particularly in the south. Thank you, Matt. We will have a look

0:17:32 > 0:17:32at

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Thank you, Matt. We will have a look at the papers. First, the lead story

0:17:35 > 0:17:41on the front of the Daily Mail, children aged ten addicted to social

0:17:41 > 0:17:45media. Concerns from the Children's Commissioner, and Longfield, about

0:17:45 > 0:17:51the impact on social media among youngsters, and concerns about how

0:17:51 > 0:17:55they are handling it and the impact it is having.The Times is looking

0:17:55 > 0:18:00at the leaks from Steve Bannon's book and one of the stories out of

0:18:00 > 0:18:04this is that Tony Blair warned Donald Trump that the UK might have

0:18:04 > 0:18:09spied on him and we have to make clear that Tony Blair has denied it,

0:18:09 > 0:18:13but according to the times he warned Donald Trump that British

0:18:13 > 0:18:18intelligence may have spied on him during the election.We will speak

0:18:18 > 0:18:22with the BBC later on this morning. We may get some information on that.

0:18:22 > 0:18:27The front of the Daily Mirror, they have gone with the lucky lotto

0:18:27 > 0:18:33winners, £24 million winner, and he comes from Gloucester, celebrating

0:18:33 > 0:18:38with his five daughters. And this story concentrating on a man who has

0:18:38 > 0:18:42admitted to stealing from a victim of the Manchester Arena bomb. What

0:18:42 > 0:18:48have you got for us, Michael?People moaning about how difficult to be a

0:18:48 > 0:18:52football manager. One manager is taking part in the Dakar rally,

0:18:52 > 0:19:04Andre Vilas Boas, in the Dakar Rally across South America. 70 people have

0:19:04 > 0:19:12been killed, others have been kidnapped. Extreme conditions. And

0:19:12 > 0:19:20they want Jock related names. We have this wonderful story in the

0:19:20 > 0:19:25pictures. You know you can't force a cat to do anything, they are so

0:19:25 > 0:19:33independent. This little guy loves to be on, at the pony. He is a

0:19:33 > 0:19:38Siamese cat riding a long and it is gorgeous, isn't it, so we won some

0:19:38 > 0:19:44War Horse related...Can we have a quick animal picture? It was really

0:19:44 > 0:19:54windy yesterday and this is an cocka-poodle in Norfolk.And a

0:19:54 > 0:19:57little sunshine, by the look of it. Thank you.

0:19:57 > 0:20:00Donald Trump has accused his former chief strategist of 'losing his

0:20:00 > 0:20:03mind', after he was sacked from his job at the White House.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07The comments came after Steve Bannon was quoted in a new book disparaging

0:20:07 > 0:20:07Trump's children.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10Bannon, who was one of the President's closest advisors

0:20:10 > 0:20:12until August last year, claims Trump's son, Donald Jr,

0:20:12 > 0:20:20was "treasonous" in a meeting with Russians and called

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Ivanka Trump "dumb as a brick." The comments were first

0:20:23 > 0:20:25reported by Guardian journalist David Smith,

0:20:25 > 0:20:30who joins us now from Washington.

0:20:30 > 0:20:38Good to see you, good morning. What do you make of this book?It is

0:20:38 > 0:20:41certainly extraordinary even by the standards of the Trump

0:20:41 > 0:20:46administration which, as we know, seems to break the rules and push

0:20:46 > 0:20:50the envelope every day. Very striking that there would be

0:20:50 > 0:20:55comments about the Russia investigation which has cast a dark

0:20:55 > 0:21:01cloud over the White House for more than a year. For Steve Bannon to

0:21:01 > 0:21:07turn on the Drum family and describe the behaviour of Donald Trump's sun

0:21:07 > 0:21:12as treasonous and unpatriotic, it took a lot of people by surprise.

0:21:12 > 0:21:17The other bad news is Steve Bannon predicts the Russia investigation

0:21:17 > 0:21:22will get worse and worse. There is a memorable line where he predicts

0:21:22 > 0:21:29Donald Trump Jr will be broken open like an eight on national TV and

0:21:29 > 0:21:34that the investigator will focus on money laundering as the main way of

0:21:34 > 0:21:42getting to the President. Along with that it is very readable and juicy.

0:21:42 > 0:21:47In terms palace intrigue and gossip and stories of factional infighting

0:21:47 > 0:21:52in a very dysfunctional White House. How does it all tied back to when

0:21:52 > 0:21:56Steve Bannon left the White House, he said he planned to help the

0:21:56 > 0:22:00Donald Trump administration by being his wing man outside. This seems far

0:22:00 > 0:22:07from it.Bannon has described himself previously as Thomas

0:22:07 > 0:22:12Cromwell in the court of Henry VIII, and he is sort of seeming to revel

0:22:12 > 0:22:16in the injury. I think that there was some writing in the wall early

0:22:16 > 0:22:22on around a year ago when Bannon made the cover Of those magazines

0:22:22 > 0:22:27and people refer to him as President Bannon, you could be sure that

0:22:27 > 0:22:34Donald Trump didn't like that. Not a great surprise when he was ousted.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38And since then, it has been a strange relationship. We hear that

0:22:38 > 0:22:44they speak on the phone, at least until early December. That seems to

0:22:44 > 0:22:47have turned sour. They still have a lot of ideological overlap. They

0:22:47 > 0:22:53back the same candidates. In a special election in Alabama

0:22:53 > 0:22:58recently. It does raise questions over the future of whether they will

0:22:58 > 0:23:04still be on the same site or scrapping over that populist,

0:23:04 > 0:23:08nationalist wing of the Republican Party.What insights has it offered

0:23:08 > 0:23:12in terms of the relationships in the White House. It has referred to

0:23:12 > 0:23:19Melania Trump and the day of the inauguration, their relationship,

0:23:19 > 0:23:22other personal relationships in the White House. Has it been a

0:23:22 > 0:23:28revelation in that sense?Yes. It has confirmed a lot of the rumours

0:23:28 > 0:23:34and reporting of just how bad things are in terms of a cutthroat,

0:23:34 > 0:23:40poisonous atmosphere. But it has also furnished new details, some of

0:23:40 > 0:23:44which are disputed, some of which seem to be widely accepted and not

0:23:44 > 0:23:48denied, everything from Donald Trump and his wife having separate

0:23:48 > 0:23:56bedrooms, the first time since the Kennedys, through to the minimal

0:23:56 > 0:24:02expectations anyone had about him winning this election and apparently

0:24:02 > 0:24:08Melania burst into tears, not all joy, when they did win. Strange

0:24:08 > 0:24:12tales of a veteran official trying to read the US Constitution to

0:24:12 > 0:24:17Donald Trump and him getting bored by about the fourth Amendment and

0:24:17 > 0:24:24not being able to concentrate. And then bizarrely the book claims

0:24:24 > 0:24:30Donald Trump has fears of being poisoned. And that explains why he

0:24:30 > 0:24:35regularly eat at McDonald's because they won't know he is coming. Also a

0:24:35 > 0:24:40lot of very dysfunctional relationships, most particularly

0:24:40 > 0:24:48between Steve Bannon on the one hand and then Donald Trump's daughter is

0:24:48 > 0:24:52-- and son-in-law. And there are lurid tales of shouting matches and

0:24:52 > 0:24:56tears.The food strategy is interesting. Shall we talk about

0:24:56 > 0:25:00Tony Blair, the mention of Tony Blair in the book. Allegations of

0:25:00 > 0:25:06course of him allegedly telling Donald Trump that he may have been

0:25:06 > 0:25:12spied upon. But also looking for a job as a Middle East perhaps envoy.

0:25:12 > 0:25:22Yes. It is claimed claimed Tony Blair visited last February and it

0:25:22 > 0:25:27is possible that Donald Trump was put under surveillance by British

0:25:27 > 0:25:33intelligence during the election. And according to the book, this

0:25:33 > 0:25:37stuck in Donald Trump's mind and festered and it could tell us a lot

0:25:37 > 0:25:43about why Trump has all sorts of paranoia about the deep state and

0:25:43 > 0:25:47accused Barack Obama of tapping his phones without evidence and so on.

0:25:47 > 0:25:55However, we have seen strong denials from Tony Blair's came about that.

0:25:55 > 0:26:02And I don't know whether he was touting for a Middle East job, which

0:26:02 > 0:26:09seems to be hard to believe, maybe some spin from the Trump White

0:26:09 > 0:26:15House, but very difficult to pin down. Overall, this book is being

0:26:15 > 0:26:21well received, but there are people questioning some of the claims as

0:26:21 > 0:26:25you might expect.It is certainly gathering attention. Thank you very

0:26:25 > 0:26:30much for your time. David Smith, Washington correspondent for the

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Guardian. Thank you.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37Ben is in Ashington, near Newcastle this morning,

0:26:37 > 0:26:40discovering how the rise of robots and automation could put some

0:26:40 > 0:26:45minimum wage workers at risk of unemployment.

0:26:45 > 0:26:49Yes, it is a really interesting study out from a think tank this

0:26:49 > 0:26:52morning that suggests more of us could be replaced by robots if the

0:26:52 > 0:26:57minimum wage rises too much and that is because it would be cheaper for

0:26:57 > 0:27:02employers to use robots instead of humans if the wage goes too high. It

0:27:02 > 0:27:06is interesting. We have spent so much time on production lines in

0:27:06 > 0:27:09factories like this. You might expect to see more people around

0:27:09 > 0:27:14this. This is the Dulux paint factory. There are 150 staff on the

0:27:14 > 0:27:19site. Most of the process is automated. They are filling up the

0:27:19 > 0:27:23paint tins here. The entire process from start to finish is automatic.

0:27:23 > 0:27:32They are using robots to do it. Then it goes straight onto the trucks to

0:27:32 > 0:27:36be sold up and down the country. And they have said they can do that

0:27:36 > 0:27:40because they don't need low skilled jobs. Most of the staff who are here

0:27:40 > 0:27:43are employed in the office is doing high-tech engineering staff to keep

0:27:43 > 0:27:47the machines running. We will be here over the morning to find out

0:27:47 > 0:27:51how it all works and crucially what it could mean for low skilled jobs.

0:27:51 > 0:31:10We will talk about that

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15Bye for now.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20Hello - this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga

0:31:20 > 0:31:22Munchetty.

0:31:22 > 0:31:25We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment,

0:31:25 > 0:31:27but also on Breakfast this morning.

0:31:27 > 0:31:28Are children's social lives now indistinguishable

0:31:28 > 0:31:31from their social media profiles?

0:31:31 > 0:31:34We'll talk to the Children's Commissioner about the increasing

0:31:34 > 0:31:41anxiety and pressure faced by young people living their lives online.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44We'll be at the Highland Wildlife Park where a polar bear cub

0:31:44 > 0:31:48was born over the Christmas holiday - it's the first to be born

0:31:48 > 0:31:49in the UK for 25 years.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52And telling the story of Britain through the history

0:31:52 > 0:31:55of a single townhouse: we talk to the historian David Olushoga

0:31:55 > 0:32:03about his new show looking at the way we lived.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Here's a summary of today's main stories from BBC News.

0:32:05 > 0:32:11Concerns are being raised that children as young as 11 are becoming

0:32:11 > 0:32:13increasingly dependent on social media likes and comments in order

0:32:13 > 0:32:15to feel popular and fit in.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18The Children's Commissioner for England is warning that younger

0:32:18 > 0:32:22pupils are becoming anxious about their online image

0:32:22 > 0:32:25and are unprepared for how social media use changes as they get older

0:32:25 > 0:32:31and move into secondary school.

0:32:31 > 0:32:35It's a huge pressure on children at a time when there is immense

0:32:35 > 0:32:39pressures on our life anyway from moving to a new school and knowing

0:32:39 > 0:32:57that is something that I believe we need to do more about.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59He council leader in Windsor has called for action

0:32:59 > 0:33:00to tackle "aggressive begging".

0:33:00 > 0:33:02The letter, written by Councillor Simon Dudley,

0:33:02 > 0:33:05comes ahead of the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle,

0:33:05 > 0:33:07which is taking place in in May.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Windsor Homeless Project described the comments as "abhorrent"

0:33:09 > 0:33:12The latest NHS statistics cover a start of intense pressure on the

0:33:12 > 0:33:15reports of overcrowding in hospital on warnings about patient safety

0:33:15 > 0:33:20being compromised.

0:33:20 > 0:33:24Donald Trump has accused one of his greatest supporters of losing his

0:33:24 > 0:33:29mind. Steve Bannon was his Chief Strategist until August last year.

0:33:29 > 0:33:33He's been quoted as saying that Donald Trump -- and Donald Trump

0:33:33 > 0:33:44Junior is treasonous the meeting with Russians.

0:33:44 > 0:33:49The chairman of the compass catering group died after a seaplane crashed

0:33:49 > 0:33:55north of Sydney. It's now emerged that a plane with the same serial

0:33:55 > 0:34:00number also involved in the fatal crash in 1996.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02Yesterday we brought you news of Storm Eleanor,

0:34:02 > 0:34:05which caused disruption across the UK - and its making

0:34:05 > 0:34:07itself known across Northern Europe too.

0:34:07 > 0:34:10Winds of more than 90 miles an hour hit the French coast.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14In Brittany, sea defences were breached and waves flooded

0:34:14 > 0:34:19into the streets.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21And high winds in Paris brought down scaffolding.

0:34:21 > 0:34:25In Switzerland, 25 people were stuck inside a cable car due to strong

0:34:25 > 0:34:27winds - later being rescued by helicopter -

0:34:27 > 0:34:38and a train was blown off the tracks near Lucerne injuring eight people.

0:34:38 > 0:34:55Those are the main stories on what the moment to salvage a little bit

0:34:55 > 0:35:04of pride. Australia won the first three tests and the fourth test was

0:35:04 > 0:35:09drawn. A bit of rain there. This is England's last chance to restore

0:35:09 > 0:35:23that pride. Is it half, half?Not quite like that. 3.5, half, that is

0:35:23 > 0:35:33better than 3-0.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35Joe Root, a lot of pressure.

0:35:35 > 0:35:38England are relying on captain, Joe Root to steady the ship,

0:35:38 > 0:35:40on the opening day of the fifth Test in Sydney.

0:35:40 > 0:35:45He won the toss, chose to bat and they were going well

0:35:45 > 0:35:47at 88/1.

0:35:47 > 0:35:53But then they lost James Vince and Alastair Cook,

0:35:53 > 0:35:55in quick succession and England were 95/3.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Root and Dawid Malan have steadied things though,

0:35:57 > 0:36:00and captain Root has recently reached his half century and is 51

0:36:00 > 0:36:02not out and Malan 24 not out.

0:36:02 > 0:36:11England 171/3.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13One of the most dramatic games of the Premier League season,

0:36:13 > 0:36:19saw Arsenal and Chelsea draw 2-2 at the Emirates.

0:36:19 > 0:36:21Arsenal had gone in front, through Jack Wilshere,

0:36:21 > 0:36:23but the England midfielder's goal, was cancelled out

0:36:23 > 0:36:24by a controversial penalty.

0:36:24 > 0:36:38Eden Hazard converted it for Chelsea, to leave

0:36:38 > 0:36:38Arsene Wenger unhappy.

0:36:38 > 0:36:54Marcos Alonso, then thought he'd won it for the Blues,

0:36:54 > 0:36:55before Hector Bellerin, got Arsenal's equaliser

0:36:55 > 0:36:56in stoppage time.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59Chelsea stay third behind Manchester United, Arsenal are five

0:36:59 > 0:37:00points off the top four.

0:37:00 > 0:37:04It would be nice of some stage but there were some thrilling moments.

0:37:04 > 0:37:08Yes, I think it was a great football game. When you come here, you see

0:37:08 > 0:37:12football in this what you want people to talk about. It was a

0:37:12 > 0:37:23controversy. And frustration. The social network driving everybody

0:37:23 > 0:37:31crazy what is important to me is how good the football game is.

0:37:31 > 0:37:37At the end of the game, I think that we decided to win

0:37:37 > 0:37:46But less for me because also for the players. It was a disappointment.

0:37:46 > 0:38:01When we are so close to winning the game. It is a pity.

0:38:01 > 0:38:03West Brom midfielder, Jake Livermore, confronted

0:38:03 > 0:38:06a West Ham fan on Tuesday night, in response to taunts

0:38:06 > 0:38:09about the death, of his infant son in 2014.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11West Brom say "all right-minded football supporters

0:38:11 > 0:38:14could understand this reaction", after Livermore was seen in a heated

0:38:14 > 0:38:15exchange, near his team's dugout.

0:38:15 > 0:38:19They also also say the player, has the total support of everyone

0:38:19 > 0:38:19at the club.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21West Ham are investigating the incident.

0:38:21 > 0:38:25We know Andy Murray is struggling with a hip injury ahead of next

0:38:25 > 0:38:27month's Australian Open - Novak Djokovic, Rafa Nadal

0:38:27 > 0:38:29and Stan Warinka are also struggling with fitness.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32And the world number 22 Kei Nishikori, has offically

0:38:32 > 0:38:34withdrawn from the tournament with a wrist injury.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36Nishikori hasn't played competitively since last August.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38He's reached the quarter-finals of the tournament in Melbourne three

0:38:38 > 0:38:50times, but says he is not ready for best of five set matches.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53We mentioned Andy Murray's hip injury - well it seems the British

0:38:53 > 0:38:56players are cursed with such things because Britain's number one

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Johanna Konta has retired from her quarter final

0:38:58 > 0:39:00at the Brisbane International against Elina Svitolina.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03Konta took the decision just two games after treatment for a hip

0:39:03 > 0:39:14problem.

0:39:14 > 0:39:19One player who isn't injured, Carl Edman, has won his first round

0:39:19 > 0:39:29match. Before I go, but always in those names, I always watch out of

0:39:29 > 0:39:35the corner of my eye. You always say it with such gusto. Those difficult

0:39:35 > 0:39:47names you get through quickly. Stelios Dimitrou had a chocolate bar

0:39:47 > 0:39:53thrown at him. He deals with it pretty beautifully. Besides played

0:39:53 > 0:40:06out a 1-1 draw. By picking up the bar, taking his time. Slowdown, Mr

0:40:06 > 0:40:17hair. A chocolate bar at the side of the road. It was probably earlier

0:40:17 > 0:40:28than that. Slow down, Mr hair. That is probably the way you deal with

0:40:28 > 0:40:32nasty football fans. I would not mind people growing chocolate bars

0:40:32 > 0:40:42of many. -- throwing chocolate bars at me.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44Australian authorities have begun recovering the wreckage

0:40:44 > 0:40:46of a seaplane that crashed near Sydney, killing six people.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48British businessman Richard Cousins, his two sons,

0:40:48 > 0:40:51his fiance and her daughter died alongside a Canadian pilot

0:40:51 > 0:40:53when their plane plunged into the Hawkesbury River

0:40:53 > 0:40:55on New Year's Eve.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58Our correspondent Phil Mercer is live in Sydney for us -

0:40:58 > 0:41:05what's the latest there?

0:41:05 > 0:41:10Where we are, this is West Head, a short distance to the south Sydney

0:41:10 > 0:41:14and Esh sort -- short distance to the north is Jerusalem Bay where the

0:41:14 > 0:41:19aircraft came down on New Year's Eve and we understand from investigators

0:41:19 > 0:41:24that the salvage operation is almost over and the main body of the

0:41:24 > 0:41:29aircraft was fairly intact at the bottom of the Hawkesbury River but

0:41:29 > 0:41:33because of logistics, they had to bring it up piece by piece. One of

0:41:33 > 0:41:37the main pieces to come up first was a damaged wing, an engine and

0:41:37 > 0:41:41propeller and tail. That has been lifted up an inflatable bags, pulled

0:41:41 > 0:41:47up out of the water on a crane and placed into a barge. That barge will

0:41:47 > 0:41:51be making its way from Jerusalem Bay to Pittwater, the bank of water you

0:41:51 > 0:41:58can see behind me. Eventually, that evidence will become a crucial part

0:41:58 > 0:42:03of the investigation. As the Times bought safety bureau tries to work

0:42:03 > 0:42:09out how and why a routine sightseeing trip could have ended in

0:42:09 > 0:42:15such tragedy.Have we heard any more from the relative since the

0:42:15 > 0:42:23accident?We've heard from the New Wales police. They say through the

0:42:23 > 0:42:27British Consulate here in Sydney, they have been liaising with family

0:42:27 > 0:42:33members of Richard cousins, the Chief Executive of the Compass

0:42:33 > 0:42:40group. He died alongside his family. Relatives are on their way to

0:42:40 > 0:42:45Australia to hear for themselves about the investigation. In a crash

0:42:45 > 0:42:50teams do say within a month or so, they will be releasing their initial

0:42:50 > 0:42:54findings into the New Year's Eve tragedy but a full account of this

0:42:54 > 0:43:06disaster could take up to 12 months. For the moment, thank you. Third

0:43:06 > 0:43:10World conditions with staff stretched to breaking point is just

0:43:10 > 0:43:17one of the ways the NHS has been described by medical staff.

0:43:17 > 0:43:20But officials have defended their contingency plans for the busy

0:43:20 > 0:43:23winter period and say the service is not in a state of crisis.

0:43:23 > 0:43:27We'll discuss this in more detail in a moment, but first lets take

0:43:27 > 0:43:29a look at the issues facing hospitals.

0:43:29 > 0:43:34A surge in patients since Christmas and winter illnesses mean hospitals

0:43:34 > 0:43:38are struggling to cope. About 20 in England were on the highest alert

0:43:38 > 0:43:41level, meaning no available beds and severe delays were ambulances

0:43:41 > 0:43:46handing of the patients.My granny trip down the stairs and broke her

0:43:46 > 0:43:51leg and that was on New Year's Eve night. The next day, she rang an

0:43:51 > 0:43:55ambulance and it took ten hours to come.We need to keep the doctors

0:43:55 > 0:44:01and nurses, at night, they are putting too much pressure on them.

0:44:01 > 0:44:06Other problems reported in parts of the UK. The Welsh government said

0:44:06 > 0:44:10the health service was facing significant pressure. In Scotland, a

0:44:10 > 0:44:1420% jump in attendance as compared to the previous year, prompting an

0:44:14 > 0:44:18increase in patients waiting more than four hours. In Northern

0:44:18 > 0:44:21Ireland, the Antrim area hospital has been forced to bring in St

0:44:21 > 0:44:25John's ambulance volunteer to help with the surge in demand. On social

0:44:25 > 0:44:30media, doctors have been raising their concerns, saying crowded

0:44:30 > 0:44:33emergency departments are compromising patient safety. The

0:44:33 > 0:44:37Prime Minister has denied the health service in England is in crisis.

0:44:37 > 0:44:41Those who have had their operations, it's disappointing, it's frustrating

0:44:41 > 0:44:48but we will ensure those operations are put back as soon as possible.

0:44:48 > 0:44:53Adam Roberts joins us now.

0:44:53 > 0:44:56Joining us now in the studio is Adam Roberts who is the Head

0:44:56 > 0:44:59of Economics at the Health Foundation an independent charity

0:44:59 > 0:45:00working to improve health service delivery.

0:45:00 > 0:45:03Good morning. Among the emotional arguments right now, because we

0:45:03 > 0:45:05heard yesterday about hospital wards, the desperate situations

0:45:05 > 0:45:05people

0:45:05 > 0:45:07wards, the desperate situations people are in and it is quite hard

0:45:07 > 0:45:11to have a levelheaded discussion about how we are more generally. The

0:45:11 > 0:45:15argument coming from the NHS and from Theresa May is the contingency

0:45:15 > 0:45:21plan has been put in place this year and that they are working. Can you

0:45:21 > 0:45:26give us a snapshot about whether there is truth in that?Where we are

0:45:26 > 0:45:30at the moment is the NHS is currently seven years into its most

0:45:30 > 0:45:34austere decade we've ever had. There is more going into the NHS part

0:45:34 > 0:45:39every year we ask the NHS to do more and more because the population is

0:45:39 > 0:45:42growing, the population is ageing and the money that is going in

0:45:42 > 0:45:48broadly covers that extra demand. But also we ask the NHS to do more

0:45:48 > 0:45:53and more every year. We are not just trying to keep Care the same. We are

0:45:53 > 0:45:56trying to do more. Whenever a new drug or procedure comes onto the

0:45:56 > 0:46:02market, of course we ask the NHS to deliver that. And in the same way as

0:46:02 > 0:46:07the price of shopping over Christmas goes up, the cost of delivering that

0:46:07 > 0:46:12goes.Why is there a crisis now if you accept there is a crisis?

0:46:12 > 0:46:16Because we are seven years into this period of austerity where pressures

0:46:16 > 0:46:21are rising year on year faster than the money is going in. We have been

0:46:21 > 0:46:27able to make some savings in the NHS. We have had a real focus on

0:46:27 > 0:46:31improving efficiency with which care is delivered. But seven years in a

0:46:31 > 0:46:37lot of the simple wins have disappeared and it is more and more

0:46:37 > 0:46:41difficult.This is similar to the crisis question, why are we taken by

0:46:41 > 0:46:46surprise every year?Yes.It happens, and you mention the

0:46:46 > 0:46:51population growth, we are getting older and living longer, that isn't

0:46:51 > 0:46:55surprising.Know, and beyond the money there is a serious issue

0:46:55 > 0:47:00around the workforce planning we have had. We have not been training

0:47:00 > 0:47:04enough staff, which means hospitals across the UK have a shortage of

0:47:04 > 0:47:11nurses, a shortage of consultants, a drop in the number of GPs, so while

0:47:11 > 0:47:17we are focusing on hospitals in the winter, obviously the NHS is much

0:47:17 > 0:47:20bigger than that, and the focus is trying to make sure that people

0:47:20 > 0:47:26don't go to hospital if they don't need to, give them care earlier, flu

0:47:26 > 0:47:29vaccinations is an obvious example, but we have issues around staffing

0:47:29 > 0:47:35in out of hospital services as well. So are we at the point where it is

0:47:35 > 0:47:38not a conversation about money, it is not a conversation about how much

0:47:38 > 0:47:43money the government can plough into the NHS, are we at the point where

0:47:43 > 0:47:47we need to save the NHS needs to stop doing things, all we need to

0:47:47 > 0:47:51personally think about finding the NHS or it needs to be funded

0:47:51 > 0:47:57differently in some parts?You can't escape the money issue, it was made

0:47:57 > 0:48:03clear in the budget at the end of last year when three extra £2

0:48:03 > 0:48:08billion was announced, and additional money coming out of that.

0:48:08 > 0:48:12Even looking at the government's independent forecast the additional

0:48:12 > 0:48:17funding was only half of what the NHS would need to keep pace with the

0:48:17 > 0:48:20rising demand I was talking about. You can't escape the money. But of

0:48:20 > 0:48:27course it is more than that. We are asking more of our dedicated staff

0:48:27 > 0:48:32and they are rising to the challenge but we can't continue to keep asking

0:48:32 > 0:48:36them to do more and more. If there isn't going to be more funding into

0:48:36 > 0:48:40the NHS I think we need to be honest and say we can't continue to improve

0:48:40 > 0:48:44the services we are offering with a budget that we have got.We will

0:48:44 > 0:48:49leave it for now. Thank you for that. You are going to join us later

0:48:49 > 0:48:53on and we will talk about that. If you have stories you would like to

0:48:53 > 0:48:58share, yesterday we heard a lot about the immediate crisis people

0:48:58 > 0:49:04are in. Loved ones waiting in corridors, on trolleys, so it you

0:49:04 > 0:49:08have stories you like to share with us on a wider theme, let us know

0:49:08 > 0:49:15this morning. Good morning. Time to have an update on the weather. It

0:49:15 > 0:49:19has been very windy over the last 24 hours. What is the

0:49:19 > 0:49:22has been very windy over the last 24 hours. What is the position? It is

0:49:22 > 0:49:26windy today. Certainly across windy and Wales with severe gales later.

0:49:26 > 0:49:30At the moment it isn't desperately strong. Big contrast in temperature

0:49:30 > 0:49:40with south and north. 14 in Exeter, -1 in Huntly. Northern Ireland has a

0:49:40 > 0:49:44wet start. Sleet and snow over the hills. Word across southern Scotland

0:49:44 > 0:49:47and were across England and Wales. It is brightening up from the

0:49:47 > 0:49:51south-west. And the winds strengthen. We might see severe

0:49:51 > 0:49:55gales around the western coast late morning onwards and then developing

0:49:55 > 0:50:00widely inland in the afternoon. In contrast, northern Scotland, the

0:50:00 > 0:50:04wind is light, showers around, the best of the sunny weather towards

0:50:04 > 0:50:08Orkney & Shetland. Cloud elsewhere. Central southern Scotland is wet in

0:50:08 > 0:50:12the afternoon with sleet and snow. Maybe bright in the south-west of

0:50:12 > 0:50:19Northern Ireland later. Antrim on the wet side. Around Liverpool Bay

0:50:19 > 0:50:25we could see wind by mid afternoon 50 or 60 mph quite easily.

0:50:25 > 0:50:28Widespread gales across the Midlands and Wales and southern England.

0:50:28 > 0:50:32Afternoon sunshine here and temperatures up into double figures.

0:50:32 > 0:50:36Feeling reasonably mild compared to the north. In the south we will see

0:50:36 > 0:50:41another spell of rain and strong winds, 60- 70 mph possible. Further

0:50:41 > 0:50:46travel disruption today and tonight, potentially further damage. Winds

0:50:46 > 0:50:50light of further north but still cloud around, outbreaks of rain and

0:50:50 > 0:50:58hill snow, and a touch of frost into tomorrow morning. Tomorrow morning's

0:50:58 > 0:51:01commute will be a cool one so cater for the chance of rain anywhere.

0:51:01 > 0:51:05Sunny spells developing for England and Wales and wind in the English

0:51:05 > 0:51:08Channel. And still cloud and rain, sleet and hill snow. In Scotland and

0:51:08 > 0:51:13we have it for at least 24 hours as it sets in through today.

0:51:13 > 0:51:17Temperatures in single figures. They will drop even into the weekend. The

0:51:17 > 0:51:21weekend is going to be one which starts very windy across the

0:51:21 > 0:51:27country. Gales in places, rain in the south, wintry showers across

0:51:27 > 0:51:30eastern Scotland and north-east England, but bright weather to the

0:51:30 > 0:51:36north-west. With the strong wind, temperatures may maybe too-8d on the

0:51:36 > 0:51:40thermometer, this is what it will feel like, closer to freezing, if

0:51:40 > 0:51:49not below, with a windchill of -32 -5 across Scotland through Saturday

0:51:49 > 0:51:53-- -3 two -5. On Sunday there will be a lot of sunshine around after a

0:51:53 > 0:51:55very frosty start.

0:51:55 > 0:51:56be a lot of sunshine around after a very frosty start. Goodbye for now.

0:51:56 > 0:52:02Thank you very much. We will spend a bit of time this morning in a

0:52:02 > 0:52:08factory and Ben is looking at automation, robots. Whether it is

0:52:08 > 0:52:12good for the workforce or if it could take away people's jobs.One

0:52:12 > 0:52:18of the links is that we talk about low wages, and if people want higher

0:52:18 > 0:52:23wages, maybe companies will have to say, I am better off automating so I

0:52:23 > 0:52:27don't have to pay at all and that is the issue many businesses are

0:52:27 > 0:52:31grappling with. Ben is in the north-east. He is mixing things up.

0:52:31 > 0:52:38Morning.Yes, I see what you did, good morning. We are at Dulux paint

0:52:38 > 0:52:42factory outside Newcastle. How many times have we been on production

0:52:42 > 0:52:46lines like this fall of staff, whether they are loading machines,

0:52:46 > 0:52:52putting labels on, putting them in crates, but there are not many

0:52:52 > 0:52:56people here. They make 33,000 possible colours, so much so they

0:52:56 > 0:53:02can do here part just 150 workers. And most of them are upstairs in the

0:53:02 > 0:53:06office or doing the high-tech things that keeps these machines running.

0:53:06 > 0:53:10Jeff is the site manager. Let me interrupt you. Not many people are

0:53:10 > 0:53:15here. It is a really big side. How can you run all of these machines

0:53:15 > 0:53:19without many staff?Yes, you are right, it is a big site with a lot

0:53:19 > 0:53:24of production going on. We are able to do this because of the high level

0:53:24 > 0:53:29of automation. We use the automation to allow us to get all of the

0:53:29 > 0:53:32technology that scientists have developed for customers and we use

0:53:32 > 0:53:36the automation to allow us to get that into these cans of paint for

0:53:36 > 0:53:41our customers.People would say you are just replacing low skilled jobs

0:53:41 > 0:53:46with robots. That is essentially what this report says today. We

0:53:46 > 0:53:50don't need people any more because we have robots. Is there a danger

0:53:50 > 0:53:55that you use these -- lose of these staff and don't have to replace them

0:53:55 > 0:53:58with high skilled ones upstairs because you need fewer of those?

0:53:58 > 0:54:02Certainly not, I don't see that at all, you've got to understand what

0:54:02 > 0:54:06business you're in and for Dulux, the business has been the number one

0:54:06 > 0:54:13product in what we do, and so what we've seen here it in Ashington is

0:54:13 > 0:54:16the most events manufacturing facility in the world to keep

0:54:16 > 0:54:21ourselves in the number one position. The impact of that is for

0:54:21 > 0:54:24our employees, it means that when teams used to work in traditional

0:54:24 > 0:54:28processes, which were quite labour-intensive, we've got a

0:54:28 > 0:54:32facility where the work environment is much better, we still need the

0:54:32 > 0:54:35equivalent number of employees in reality, but the investment in that

0:54:35 > 0:54:39training and skills is at a different level, so the combined

0:54:39 > 0:54:44impact, the teams we have at this site, and what they are able to do

0:54:44 > 0:54:48to ensure that we keep products number one is at a different level

0:54:48 > 0:54:54now.For now, thank you very much. Really interesting, the point about

0:54:54 > 0:54:58training. Well and good to get rid of the skilled jobs filling tins of

0:54:58 > 0:55:02paint, but the issue is if the people are available with the right

0:55:02 > 0:55:06skills for the high-tech jobs that have become available. With me now

0:55:06 > 0:55:11is Mark, who works in recruitment. It is an interesting picture,

0:55:11 > 0:55:16because we have seen a lot of firms set up here with a lot of automatic

0:55:16 > 0:55:20processes. I am thinking about the car plan. What change have you seen

0:55:20 > 0:55:25in demand for jobs and which are available?Technology and investment

0:55:25 > 0:55:29in technology is good news for the north-east in UK with record levels

0:55:29 > 0:55:33of employment at the moment. One of the things that is stubborn is

0:55:33 > 0:55:40productivity. And plans like Nissan has the most successful plant in

0:55:40 > 0:55:44history and it is the most efficient, increasing production by

0:55:44 > 0:55:4820%, and the impact is huge employment in the supply chain.

0:55:48 > 0:55:51Without that investment in technology that would never have

0:55:51 > 0:55:55happened. And companies like Hitachi have moved to the region on the back

0:55:55 > 0:56:00of our supply chain in Nissan, so the whole of the north-east has

0:56:00 > 0:56:03benefited from investment in technology.It is a simple question.

0:56:03 > 0:56:08Should we be scared of robots? It is one thing to say yes. Lots of

0:56:08 > 0:56:13high-tech jobs have been made available. But not everyone has

0:56:13 > 0:56:16those skills. People that are on relatively low skilled jobs could

0:56:16 > 0:56:21see their jobs disappear. Should we be scared about?I don't think so at

0:56:21 > 0:56:26all. As consumer demand changes and becomes customised, they want to see

0:56:26 > 0:56:31unique products available quickly, technology allows us to meet the

0:56:31 > 0:56:35demand, so I see higher demand for skills in IT and marketing, in

0:56:35 > 0:56:42e-commerce and digital, where there is higher pay. People have the

0:56:42 > 0:56:46opportunity to get better jobs, high skilled jobs, and retrain. The

0:56:46 > 0:56:50challenge is not the availability of the good jobs, it is around

0:56:50 > 0:56:54education, around training and the willingness of organisations to

0:56:54 > 0:57:00invest in up skilling the workforce. For now, thank you very much. It is

0:57:00 > 0:57:02interesting, the debate about whether technology is good or bad

0:57:02 > 0:57:07news, but as you have heard, they are making it work. 100 million of

0:57:07 > 0:57:11these roll off the production line every year. They are clearly doing

0:57:11 > 0:57:15something right. We will be here all morning to assess what impact it

0:57:15 > 0:57:23could have on jobs later. Join me after 7am. I will see you then.

0:57:23 > 1:00:44Fascinating.33,000 colours of paint in the factory.

1:00:44 > 1:00:45in half an hour.

1:00:45 > 1:00:47Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

1:00:47 > 1:00:49Now, though, it's back to Charlie and Naga.

1:00:49 > 1:00:51Hello - this is Breakfast,

1:00:58 > 1:01:05The Children's Commissioner for England says too

1:01:05 > 1:01:07many pupils are ill-equipped for the "emotional demands"

1:01:07 > 1:01:18of their online lives.

1:01:18 > 1:01:20Good morning - it's Thursday 4th January.

1:01:20 > 1:01:29Also this morning:

1:01:29 > 1:01:40A clearer picture of our service in England is with winter.

1:01:40 > 1:01:43The leader of Windsor council calls for police to tackle

1:01:43 > 1:01:46what he calls "aggressive begging" in the town before Prince Harry

1:01:57 > 1:02:02Could the minimum wage be a threat to our jobs? In your report says

1:02:02 > 1:02:05employers could replace more of us with robots if wages rise too

1:02:05 > 1:02:17quickly. I am at this factory near Newcastle. In sport, Andy Murray has

1:02:37 > 1:02:41gales will be back. The latest details on the next 15 minutes.

1:02:41 > 1:02:43First, our main story.

1:02:43 > 1:02:46Children as young as 11 are becomming increasingly dependent

1:02:46 > 1:02:54on social media likes and comments in order to feel popular and fit in.

1:02:54 > 1:02:59And Longfield says too many people are becoming dependent on likes to

1:02:59 > 1:03:03fit in. She is urging teachers, parents and Internet companies to

1:03:03 > 1:03:08take action.

1:03:17 > 1:03:19With social media in the hands of children, there are challenges

1:03:19 > 1:03:21of growing up in a digital age.

1:03:21 > 1:03:26In a report released today called Life in Likes,

1:03:26 > 1:03:28there are warnings many children in secondary

1:03:28 > 1:03:31school are struggling to handle social media as the world expands.

1:03:31 > 1:03:35I feel like I'm pressured by other people because my friends do it

1:03:35 > 1:03:41so I have to do it to fit in.

1:03:41 > 1:03:43You see people, if they're getting bullied on social

1:03:43 > 1:03:45media, they don't tell their parents.

1:03:45 > 1:03:48If you don't tell them, they will never find out.

1:03:48 > 1:03:51The report shows that as children move schools from primary

1:03:51 > 1:03:53the way they use social media changes.

1:03:53 > 1:03:56Instead of scoring points playing games, getting likes and comments

1:03:56 > 1:03:59becomes important and worryingly, they also adapt their offline

1:03:59 > 1:04:00behaviour to fit an online image.

1:04:00 > 1:04:05It's a huge pressure on children at a time when there is immense

1:04:05 > 1:04:09pressures in their life anyway from moving to a new school

1:04:09 > 1:04:13and knowing that is something that I believe we need to do more about.

1:04:13 > 1:04:15Secondary school can be a difficult time,

1:04:15 > 1:04:17when young people feel pressured to fit in.

1:04:17 > 1:04:19Today's report warns a generation could grow

1:04:19 > 1:04:22up feeling insecure and unable to cope if left

1:04:22 > 1:04:24to their own devices.

1:04:24 > 1:04:40Elaine Dunkley, BBC News.

1:04:40 > 1:04:43The latest figures showing how hospitals in England are coping

1:04:43 > 1:04:45with the demands of winter will be published this morning.

1:04:45 > 1:04:47Yesterday the Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt apologised

1:04:47 > 1:04:50to patients after hospitals were told to delay tens of thousands

1:04:50 > 1:04:52of non-urgent operations and out-patient appointments

1:04:52 > 1:04:55so the health service can cope with the winter pressures.

1:04:55 > 1:04:58The weekly figures from NHS England covering the last seven days

1:04:58 > 1:04:59in December will include the proportion

1:04:59 > 1:05:01of hospital beds occupied, the number of A&E

1:05:01 > 1:05:04units which had to divert ambulances to other hospitals,

1:05:04 > 1:05:05and serious flu cases.

1:05:05 > 1:05:08NHS leaders say flu is on the increase and there

1:05:08 > 1:05:09are concerns a major outbreak

1:05:09 > 1:05:12will develop, putting more pressure on a system already

1:05:12 > 1:05:16under great strain.

1:05:16 > 1:05:19The figures no longer include hospitals at the highest state

1:05:19 > 1:05:21of alert, indicating they are struggling to cope.

1:05:21 > 1:05:26BBC research has found 20 in England have been at that level

1:05:26 > 1:05:29this week compared to a handful at this time last year.

1:05:29 > 1:05:32I want to apologise for the fact that we have

1:05:32 > 1:05:34had regrattably to postpone a number of operations.

1:05:34 > 1:05:38We are trying to do it differently.

1:05:38 > 1:05:40Last year, we cancelled a lot of operations

1:05:40 > 1:05:45at the very last minute.

1:05:45 > 1:05:49So people got a call the day before to say their operation

1:05:49 > 1:05:50was not going ahead.

1:05:50 > 1:05:51That is obviously very undesirable.

1:05:51 > 1:05:56So we want to do it in a much more planned way.

1:05:56 > 1:05:59When you have ambulances backed up outside hospitals,

1:05:59 > 1:06:00hospitals saying they are overcrowded,

1:06:00 > 1:06:02people waiting for hours and hours on trolleys,

1:06:02 > 1:06:06it is a crisis and it is because of seven years of underfunding and cuts

1:06:06 > 1:06:07to our NHS.

1:06:07 > 1:06:10And the government is simplay burying their head in the sand.

1:06:10 > 1:06:12Tens of thousands of non-urgent operations will be cancelled

1:06:12 > 1:06:16this month to allow senior doctors to deal with emergency cases.

1:06:16 > 1:06:17creating a backlog, adding to a lengthening

1:06:17 > 1:06:22waiting lists for operations like knee and hip replacements.

1:06:22 > 1:06:29Hugh Pym, BBC News.

1:06:29 > 1:06:32Those figures will be out at 9:30 a.m..

1:06:32 > 1:06:35And we'll be looking at the issues facing hospitals across the UK

1:06:35 > 1:06:37this winter a little later in the programme.

1:06:37 > 1:06:40A council leader in Windsor has called for action to tackle

1:06:40 > 1:06:43aggressive begging ahead of the wedding of Prince Harry

1:06:43 > 1:06:45and Meghan Markle in the town later this year.

1:06:45 > 1:06:47Councillor Simon Dudley has written an open letter

1:06:47 > 1:06:49to the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner,

1:06:49 > 1:06:52asking him to address an "epidemic of rough sleeping and vagrancy".

1:06:52 > 1:06:59Our correspondent Jon Donnison is in Windsor this morning.

1:06:59 > 1:07:02Good morning, John. It's understandable to see why there

1:07:02 > 1:07:09might be this backlash. These comments, what you make of them?

1:07:09 > 1:07:14Well, they've certainly proved pretty controversial. This started

1:07:14 > 1:07:18with a series of tweets that Simon doubly sent when he was apparently

1:07:18 > 1:07:28on holiday in the United States over Christmas, saying: -- doubly. --

1:07:28 > 1:07:30Dudley.

1:07:35 > 1:07:40He has now written a letter to the Police and Crime Commissioner of

1:07:40 > 1:07:43Thames Valley Police that he talks about a problem of aggressive

1:07:43 > 1:07:49begging and intimidation and what perhaps his most controversial, he

1:07:49 > 1:07:53says that many of the people begging in Windsor are not homeless in his

1:07:53 > 1:07:58opinion. He says those who I have done so out of voluntary choice

1:07:58 > 1:08:05because they have chosen not to use the council's services. Simon doubly

1:08:05 > 1:08:10has said this is a problem, it's creating a hostile atmosphere of the

1:08:10 > 1:08:167 million tourists who visit Windsor every year and he is even talked

1:08:16 > 1:08:21about tourists being frogmarched to cash points by people begging. That

1:08:21 > 1:08:33is something incidentally police say they have not seen. Homeless groups

1:08:33 > 1:08:38have acknowledged there is a big problem in Windsor but they have

1:08:38 > 1:08:42said that Simon Dudley's comments were sickening and the idea that

1:08:42 > 1:08:45anyone would choose to be homeless or choose to be begging is

1:08:45 > 1:08:50ridiculous.

1:08:50 > 1:08:52President Trump has accused his former chief strategist

1:08:52 > 1:08:55of 'losing his mind', after he lost his job at the White

1:08:55 > 1:09:00House.

1:09:00 > 1:09:03Steve Bannon has been quoted in a new book saying

1:09:03 > 1:09:05that the President's son Donald Jr was "treasonous"

1:09:05 > 1:09:06for meeting with Russians.

1:09:06 > 1:09:08Bannon, was one of the President's closest advisors

1:09:08 > 1:09:11until last year and helped shape Mr Trump's "America First" campaign

1:09:11 > 1:09:13message before he left his post last year.

1:09:13 > 1:09:19Our North America correspondent Peter Bowes reports.

1:09:19 > 1:09:21They were once as thick as thieves.

1:09:21 > 1:09:23Steve Bannon helped to shape the America

1:09:23 > 1:09:23First campaign that

1:09:23 > 1:09:24elected Donald Trump.

1:09:24 > 1:09:27In the White House, he was a key player.

1:09:27 > 1:09:29He had the ear of the President.

1:09:29 > 1:09:32But his job as chief strategist was short-lived and he returned

1:09:32 > 1:09:34But his job as chief strategist was short-lived.

1:09:34 > 1:09:36He promised to be the president's wingman outside

1:09:36 > 1:09:38but this book reveals a different story.

1:09:38 > 1:09:48The most damaging claim is that Steve Bannon viewed a meeting

1:09:48 > 1:09:50between Donald Trump, Jr and a group of Russians

1:09:50 > 1:09:52during the campaign and considered it

1:09:52 > 1:09:52treasonous.

1:09:52 > 1:09:54Also a meeting between Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner.

1:09:54 > 1:09:57"The three senior guys in the campaign thought

1:09:57 > 1:10:00it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government

1:10:00 > 1:10:03inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor with no

1:10:03 > 1:10:06lawyers," Bannon is quoted as saying.

1:10:06 > 1:10:09He adds that after the meeting they should have called the FBI

1:10:09 > 1:10:09immediately.

1:10:09 > 1:10:11The President has hit back in a scathing statement.

1:10:22 > 1:10:25White House press secretary Sarah Sanders has condemned

1:10:25 > 1:10:26the contents of the book

1:10:26 > 1:10:27as completely untrue.

1:10:27 > 1:10:30I think it is a ridiculous accusation and I am sure

1:10:30 > 1:10:33we have addressed many times here before.

1:10:33 > 1:10:37The book also says the Steve Bannon believes the Russians were taken

1:10:37 > 1:10:39after the meeting to meet Donald Trump.

1:10:39 > 1:10:41The President has always denied that happened.

1:10:41 > 1:10:42With the ongoing investigation into possible Russian

1:10:42 > 1:10:45collusion in the presidential election, this explosive row

1:10:45 > 1:10:46between Donald Trump and his once trusted

1:10:46 > 1:10:52ally has left Washington stunned.

1:10:52 > 1:10:55Australian recovery teams have started to raise the wreckage

1:10:55 > 1:10:57of a seaplane that crashed into a river near Sydney,

1:10:57 > 1:10:59killing six people.

1:10:59 > 1:11:02Richard Cousins, chairman of the Compass catering

1:11:02 > 1:11:05group, died alongside four members of his family and a Canadian pilot

1:11:05 > 1:11:07when the plane crashed into the Hawkesbury River

1:11:07 > 1:11:12on New Year's Eve.

1:11:12 > 1:11:15Investigators have revealed that a plane with the same serial number

1:11:15 > 1:11:25was also involved in a fatal crash in 1996.

1:11:25 > 1:11:32Jewellery thought to be valued up to £1 million have been stolen in

1:11:32 > 1:11:37Italy. They were stolen from the Doge Palace in Venice. They belonged

1:11:37 > 1:11:45to the Royal Family of Qatar. The thieves disappeared into the crowd.

1:11:45 > 1:11:48A group on a snowmobile tour in western Canada might have been

1:11:48 > 1:11:51hoping to spot some wildlife amongst the snowdrifts,

1:11:51 > 1:11:53but they certainly weren't expecting to see this.

1:11:53 > 1:11:56Here you can see the head of a moose peeping out

1:11:56 > 1:12:01from beneath the powder.

1:12:01 > 1:12:05It became trapped in deep snow, but the group came to its rescue.

1:12:05 > 1:12:08You'll be pleased to hear that they managed to dig it free

1:12:08 > 1:12:11and after around 15 minutes the uninjured moose was back

1:12:11 > 1:12:39on the loose.

1:12:39 > 1:12:42The likes of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat may seem

1:12:42 > 1:12:45to be an inescapable part of modern life for many adults

1:12:45 > 1:12:48but for children it appears the influence of social media can

1:12:48 > 1:12:48be more sinister.

1:12:48 > 1:12:51New research into how young people behave online has found

1:12:51 > 1:12:52many

1:12:52 > 1:12:55are dealing with anxiety and social pressure in the constant pursuit

1:12:55 > 1:12:56of 'likes' and comments.

1:12:56 > 1:12:58The report is the work of the Children's Commissioner

1:12:58 > 1:13:01for England Anne Longfield who joins us from our Westminster studio.

1:13:01 > 1:13:04Also here, Grace Barrett from the Self Esteem Team. Tel is a little

1:13:04 > 1:13:09bit more about the survey and what this is telling is that we didn't

1:13:09 > 1:13:16already know.This survey is the first survey of its kind which is

1:13:16 > 1:13:22looked at the group of children who are preteens. Often we will focus on

1:13:22 > 1:13:27the impact of social media on children in our 14, 15. We know that

1:13:27 > 1:13:33more and more younger children, what we found is there is a world --a

1:13:33 > 1:13:38real change in the way children use social media. From it being fun and

1:13:38 > 1:13:43family oriented when they are nine and ten into a much more serious

1:13:43 > 1:13:48role as they start secondary school where it has a real impact on their

1:13:48 > 1:13:52social lives, a real impact on their self-identity. And they find

1:13:52 > 1:13:58themselves as you say chasing lights, chasing validation, being

1:13:58 > 1:14:04very anxious about their appearance on line and offline and feeling that

1:14:04 > 1:14:11they can't disconnect because that will be seen as socially damaging.

1:14:11 > 1:14:18All of which is a time of huge pressure as we all know. Your work

1:14:18 > 1:14:28involves talking to children.We are quite well versed on the impact for

1:14:28 > 1:14:33teenagers but surprising is, children as young as 11, ten years

1:14:33 > 1:14:39old are feeling these pressures.I think it is a really difficult

1:14:39 > 1:14:43situation. Children of that they shouldn't be on social media but

1:14:43 > 1:14:46because all of their peers are, they don't want to be left out and

1:14:46 > 1:14:51parents face a really difficult decision. What we try to due at Self

1:14:51 > 1:14:55Esteem Team is help young people understand where they can get that

1:14:55 > 1:15:01affirmation from. Not just on line. Creating positive habits in their

1:15:01 > 1:15:09day-to-day life will be habits they can carry across. They are going to

1:15:09 > 1:15:10have positive interactions.

1:15:10 > 1:15:10Is

1:15:10 > 1:15:11can carry across. They are going to have positive interactions.it the

1:15:11 > 1:15:14problem though that social media is becoming more of everyday life?

1:15:14 > 1:15:15problem though that social media is becoming more of everyday life?

1:15:15 > 1:15:20Absolutely.You don't split it between, now I am on social media

1:15:20 > 1:15:24and now I am not.Absolutely, lots of research would suggest if you

1:15:24 > 1:15:28grew up with the Internet from the day that you were born then you do

1:15:28 > 1:15:32not see the disparity and while that is terrifying for us if we have

1:15:32 > 1:15:36grown up with our social media it means it is easier to tackle because

1:15:36 > 1:15:39if we teach positive coping strategies then they naturally carry

1:15:39 > 1:15:48across into the Internet usage.I am curious, and Longfield, Children's

1:15:48 > 1:15:53Commissioner, you deal first hand, you go to classrooms and talk to

1:15:53 > 1:15:57young children, and part of the problem feels to me is officialdom

1:15:57 > 1:16:03can't do a lot about it. A lot of it is out of their reach. If you are

1:16:03 > 1:16:09out to come up with something to try to help, what might that be? Was

1:16:09 > 1:16:18going to ask Grace first.I would say that is about first self-esteem.

1:16:18 > 1:16:22If you have people who understand mental health and where confidence

1:16:22 > 1:16:28come from, they are well rounded, all of the policy falls short media

1:16:28 > 1:16:34is less relevant. We want parents well educated on social media and

1:16:34 > 1:16:38the Internet and young people in control of themselves online. If we

1:16:38 > 1:16:42are honest most adults haven't got it right. I think that is education

1:16:42 > 1:16:47across the board.What do you think? They are all great points and I

1:16:47 > 1:16:54would like government to introduce digital literacy into the first year

1:16:54 > 1:16:57of secondary school. Schools are but looking at safety online and they

1:16:57 > 1:17:01now needed move into the emotional well-being and how to handle this

1:17:01 > 1:17:05community children find themselves in.And there is the issue that

1:17:05 > 1:17:14Grace brought up, the legal age, I think it is 13, 13, 14, and Grace

1:17:14 > 1:17:19has said Karen struggle in terms of how much to allow children to be

1:17:19 > 1:17:22involved, or to be ostracised from the peer group if they are not

1:17:22 > 1:17:26involved in this, how can you tackle that? How much influence and

1:17:26 > 1:17:32protection do you want from social media companies?Parents have a role

1:17:32 > 1:17:35in ensuring children are not on sites that are not designed for

1:17:35 > 1:17:40them, this is crucial. These sites were not designed for children. They

1:17:40 > 1:17:44are not appropriate for children. Social media companies have to do

1:17:44 > 1:17:48much more. It is easy for children to get onto these websites. They

1:17:48 > 1:17:51need to build safety into the designed to make sure that children

1:17:51 > 1:17:58go through many different hoops to get online, but also that they build

1:17:58 > 1:18:03safety in so that children who go on at the right time with confidence on

1:18:03 > 1:18:08the right apps and they would be more proactive about this. So

1:18:08 > 1:18:12changing the whole make-up I think of how they work on platforms for

1:18:12 > 1:18:18children and adults.Thank you very much for your time, and Grace, thank

1:18:18 > 1:18:22you as well and we will speak with you later on as well.And if you

1:18:22 > 1:18:26have any thoughts, let us know, because we will talk about that

1:18:26 > 1:18:32later on as well.The time now is 7:18am so let's talk to matter about

1:18:32 > 1:18:38the weather. Talking about social media and apps, I often look at a

1:18:38 > 1:18:42weather app and I am finding at the moment that it is changing every

1:18:42 > 1:18:46hour, so I can't judge what is going to happen in the next day, is it

1:18:46 > 1:18:50fair?That happens sometimes because of the way the weather apps works

1:18:50 > 1:18:52and with the weather because

1:18:52 > 1:18:53of the way the weather apps works and with the weather because it can

1:18:53 > 1:18:57be showery and showers can change position but certainly was some of

1:18:57 > 1:19:01the apps will tell you today for the south of the country is the winds

1:19:01 > 1:19:05this urges strength and yet again. Not too much at the moment though at

1:19:05 > 1:19:08the present time with a big contrast north and south as far as

1:19:08 > 1:19:11temperatures are concerned. With the contrast you need something in

1:19:11 > 1:19:14between and that is a weather front. It is bringing rangy Northern

1:19:14 > 1:19:18Ireland and south-west Scotland, northern England, the rain we have

1:19:18 > 1:19:22had for southern areas is turning light and patchy. The skies will

1:19:22 > 1:19:25brighten. Strong winds are back with severe gales around Wales and

1:19:25 > 1:19:29south-west England from mid-morning onwards with gales developing inland

1:19:29 > 1:19:40as well. Winds are light further north once again, so northern

1:19:40 > 1:19:43Scotland, after a frosty start, with some sunny spells, though it is

1:19:43 > 1:19:46clouding over for many in the afternoon. One or two showers

1:19:46 > 1:19:49around. Central and southern Scotland, it is in with you for the

1:19:49 > 1:19:54next day or so with sleet and snow as well. It is easing off to the

1:19:54 > 1:19:57south-west of Northern Ireland. Antrim could be wet and rather wet

1:19:57 > 1:20:00across northern England with snow over the tops of the Pennines.

1:20:00 > 1:20:03Strengthening winds around the likes of Merseyside with winds 50- 60 mph

1:20:03 > 1:20:06mid-afternoon and widespread gales across southern parts of England and

1:20:06 > 1:20:09Wales. But at least you will have some sunshine and not conditions

1:20:09 > 1:20:17compare to further north. More rain to come across the south tonight and

1:20:17 > 1:20:21you could have some frost around into tomorrow morning but still

1:20:21 > 1:20:25cloud around southern Scotland with patchy rain, sleet and snow to take

1:20:25 > 1:20:29us into the start of Friday so it is a grim start here with showers in

1:20:29 > 1:20:33the final. Sunshine and showers for parts of England, Wales and Northern

1:20:33 > 1:20:36Ireland to begin with, before it clouds over again later on. Still

1:20:36 > 1:20:40breezy along the English Channel coast, lot as breezy as today, light

1:20:40 > 1:20:44winds in East Anglia and sunny conditions but look at the debris to

1:20:44 > 1:20:49solve 5-9 degrees so it is starting to turn colder. -- look at the

1:20:49 > 1:20:53temperatures. It will be colder into the weekend and you will notice it

1:20:53 > 1:20:55particularly because of the wind on Saturday. Widespread gales

1:20:55 > 1:20:59developing across the country. Rain to go with it across southern

1:21:04 > 1:21:08England, dry and bright in the north-west of the country. Here,

1:21:08 > 1:21:11temperatures for Saturday afternoon 2- eight degrees, sat in the wind,

1:21:11 > 1:21:17the windchill makes it feel more like -34 -5 in parts of Scotland,

1:21:17 > 1:21:27barely above freezing in parts of the south -- -3 45 degrees in parts.

1:21:27 > 1:21:30That means further north we could see temperatures to start the around

1:21:30 > 1:21:36-10 or lower across some parts of Scotland but it is a lovely, sunny

1:21:36 > 1:21:40day after the frosty start. Still review though as it will be today

1:21:40 > 1:21:42across the south.Thank you.

1:21:42 > 1:21:452018 marks a huge milestone in the history of women's rights.

1:21:45 > 1:21:48100 years ago women, albeit only those over the age

1:21:48 > 1:21:52of 30, were given the right to vote in Britain for the first time.

1:21:52 > 1:21:54It paved the way for the introduction of universal

1:21:54 > 1:21:57suffrage ten years later, which saw all women win equal voting

1:21:57 > 1:21:58rights to men.

1:21:59 > 1:22:00Jayne McCubbin reports from Manchester, the home

1:22:00 > 1:22:06of the suffragette movement.

1:22:06 > 1:22:16# you don't own me.100 years ago, women, some women, jumped the very

1:22:16 > 1:22:20first hurdle towards equality. A movement which began here in the

1:22:20 > 1:22:25city of Manchester. In fact, here, in this very house.This is where it

1:22:25 > 1:22:30all began, in this home, around cups of tea.This is where the

1:22:30 > 1:22:33suffragette movement was born. Helen Pankhurst's great-grandmother Emily

1:22:33 > 1:22:39was the leader of that movement. Her granddaughter says the fight for

1:22:39 > 1:22:43quality is as relevant today as it was 100 years ago. Obviously we've

1:22:43 > 1:22:49made huge strides but you believe nowhere near enough.Absolutely in

1:22:49 > 1:22:53terms of representation we now have 33% of women in parliament so we are

1:22:53 > 1:22:57getting there but we are not there yet. Look at women in work and see

1:22:57 > 1:23:01how far they have got. And in the homes and in relationships in terms

1:23:01 > 1:23:04of attitudes to women's health, mental health, for example, there

1:23:04 > 1:23:08are so many areas. And we can see how far we've got in. Every time I

1:23:08 > 1:23:16look at the analysis there is still so much still to be done.When it

1:23:16 > 1:23:19comes to political representation, there is still a gender gap. Women

1:23:19 > 1:23:22still overshadowed by men. And, interestingly, there is still a

1:23:22 > 1:23:27gender gap in how they use their vote, too. Back in the 1940s, women

1:23:27 > 1:23:29were more likely to vote Conservative, men more likely to

1:23:29 > 1:23:34vote labour back.Now we still see that among all voters but if we look

1:23:34 > 1:23:39at young voters, so, for example, under the age of 40, women are much

1:23:39 > 1:23:44more supportive of Labour.And what is it down to?In the 1940s and

1:23:44 > 1:23:481950s Conservatives or the anti- austerity party and they were

1:23:48 > 1:23:51against post-war rationing for example, which has completely

1:23:51 > 1:23:55changed today, so that is the Labour Party, so women tend to have been

1:23:55 > 1:23:59more supportive parties favouring social spending and redistribution

1:23:59 > 1:24:03and that has changed over time. Arguably the woman's vote has led to

1:24:03 > 1:24:08a stronger public realm with better healthcare and better education, but

1:24:08 > 1:24:12what is the burning issue for women today?What is your daughter's name?

1:24:12 > 1:24:17Delilah. If you could vote for one thing that would make a life that

1:24:17 > 1:24:23are growing up, what would you vote for? Can I give you a ballot paper?

1:24:23 > 1:24:28Make catcalls crime.Cheap sanitary products.Get rid of social media.

1:24:28 > 1:24:32While some women's issues have changed over the last 100 years,

1:24:32 > 1:24:39some have remained the same. Who do you vote for?Equal pay. Equal pay.

1:24:39 > 1:24:46Equal pay. The quality opportunities.Equal opportunities

1:24:46 > 1:24:52in the workplace.Good luck, Delilah.# you don't own me.Do you

1:24:52 > 1:24:55worry about the world in which you are sending your 22-year-old

1:24:55 > 1:25:01daughter out into?When I think of women's writes I feel slightly

1:25:01 > 1:25:06schizophrenic about it. You know on the one hand young girls today have

1:25:06 > 1:25:09so many opportunities -- rights. You see them bubbling with potential

1:25:09 > 1:25:14with a sense of self, knowing that they can do whatever they want to.#

1:25:14 > 1:25:20don't tell me what to do, and don't tell me what to...On the other

1:25:20 > 1:25:24hand, you also see trends which are very worrying. The sexualisation,

1:25:24 > 1:25:29exposure to violence, the need to do it all. And I feel that the world is

1:25:29 > 1:25:35still a very difficult place for women.100 years since the first

1:25:35 > 1:25:40votes were secured by the first women, real quality is still being

1:25:40 > 1:25:45fought for.

1:25:45 > 1:25:52It is interesting, isn't it, those women who were asked about the one

1:25:52 > 1:25:55thing, equal pay and equal opportunity, those remained the

1:25:55 > 1:26:01issues.Quality, yes.Still outstanding.We will talk about it

1:26:01 > 1:26:05later and you can get in touch if you like in the usual way.The time

1:26:05 > 1:26:14is 7:45am. And Ben is investigating robots in the workplace. Machines

1:26:14 > 1:26:18that can do jobs that people otherwise would do often and they

1:26:18 > 1:26:22turn out to be low paid jobs. That is the pattern that is emerging.And

1:26:22 > 1:26:26whether or not they are cheaper than people in the long-term.He is at a

1:26:26 > 1:26:30paint factory and he has been taking a look at some rather illuminating

1:26:30 > 1:26:40colours, perhaps.Yes, I am at the inside of a paint can this morning!

1:26:40 > 1:26:45We are looking at what they are doing at Dulux in Newcastle. It is

1:26:45 > 1:26:49really interesting. You will notice there are not many people here. Even

1:26:49 > 1:26:53though they get through 100 million litres of paint. There are thousands

1:26:53 > 1:26:57of paint colours produced every year. The entire process is

1:26:57 > 1:27:01automated. That has allowed them to get rid of staff that would normally

1:27:01 > 1:27:05manned the lines in other factories and they are employing more highly

1:27:05 > 1:27:08skilled jobs upstairs in the office to make sure that these machines

1:27:08 > 1:27:14keep running. This is related to a report from the ISS and they have

1:27:14 > 1:27:17said if the minimum wage rises to quickly than employers could be

1:27:17 > 1:27:22forced to fire the low skilled workers and replace them instead

1:27:22 > 1:27:25with robots and automation. So there are questions about what it means

1:27:25 > 1:27:30for jobs, what it means for training. Our people on low skilled

1:27:30 > 1:27:34jobs retraining to get the highly skilled ones? And what does that

1:27:34 > 1:30:56mean for pay? We will talk about a look at what it means for places

1:30:56 > 1:30:58Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

1:30:58 > 1:31:06Bye for now.

1:31:06 > 1:31:09Hello - this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.

1:31:09 > 1:31:14Here's a summary of this morning's main stories from BBC News.

1:31:14 > 1:31:17Concerns are being raised that children as young as 11 are becoming

1:31:17 > 1:31:20increasingly anxious about how they are perceived on social media.

1:31:20 > 1:31:23The Children's Commissioner for England is warning that younger

1:31:23 > 1:31:25pupils are becoming dependent on social media 'likes' and comments

1:31:25 > 1:31:30in order to feel valued when they move into secondary school.

1:31:30 > 1:31:37The government says it's working closely with schools on online

1:31:37 > 1:31:39safety education so young people can "manage potential risks".

1:31:39 > 1:31:42The leader of Windsor council has called for action to tackle

1:31:42 > 1:31:45"aggressive begging" and an "epidemic of rough sleeping

1:31:45 > 1:31:50and vagrancy" in the town.

1:31:50 > 1:31:57(OOV) The letter, written by Councillor Simon Dudley,

1:31:58 > 1:32:01comes ahead of the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle,

1:32:01 > 1:32:03which is taking place in in May.

1:32:03 > 1:32:05Windsor Homeless Project described the comments as "abhorrent".

1:32:05 > 1:32:07NHS England will today reveal how hospitals performed

1:32:07 > 1:32:10in the notoriously busy period between Christmas and New Year's

1:32:10 > 1:32:10Eve.

1:32:10 > 1:32:13The latest statistics will cover the start of an intense

1:32:13 > 1:32:15period of pressure across the service with reports

1:32:15 > 1:32:17of overcrowding in hospitals and warnings about patient

1:32:17 > 1:32:18safety being compromised.

1:32:18 > 1:32:21Donald Trump has accused one of his former advisors

1:32:21 > 1:32:23of 'losing his mind', after leaving his position

1:32:23 > 1:32:25at the White House.

1:32:25 > 1:32:27Steve Bannon was the President's chief strategist

1:32:27 > 1:32:30until August last year, he has been quoted in a new book

1:32:30 > 1:32:33as saying that Mr Trump's son Donald junior was "treasonous"

1:32:33 > 1:32:34for meeting with Russians.

1:32:34 > 1:32:38White House officials have denied the allegations.

1:32:38 > 1:32:44I think that is a ridiculous access -- accusation and one we have

1:32:44 > 1:32:47addressed many times before. That is in reference to comments made by

1:32:47 > 1:32:51Steve Damin I refer you back to the once he made previously on 60

1:32:51 > 1:32:54Minutes where he called the collusion with Russia about this

1:32:54 > 1:32:58President a total farce so I think I would look back at that. If anybody

1:32:58 > 1:33:01has been inconsistent, it's him. It certainly hasn't been the president

1:33:01 > 1:33:04of administration.

1:33:04 > 1:33:07Australian recovery teams have started to raise the wreckage

1:33:07 > 1:33:09of a seaplane that crashed into a river near Sydney,

1:33:09 > 1:33:10killing six people.

1:33:10 > 1:33:12Richard Cousins, chairman of the Compass catering

1:33:12 > 1:33:15group, died with his two sons, his fiancee and her daughter,

1:33:15 > 1:33:19and a Canadian pilot when the plane crashed into the Hawkesbury River

1:33:19 > 1:33:19on New Year's Eve.

1:33:19 > 1:33:23It has now emerged that a plane with the same serial number was also

1:33:23 > 1:33:25involved in a fatal crash in 1996.

1:33:25 > 1:33:27Yesterday, we brought you news of Storm Eleanor,

1:33:27 > 1:33:39which caused disruption across the UK - and it's making

1:33:39 > 1:33:41itself known across Northern Europe too.

1:33:41 > 1:33:44Winds of more than 90 miles an hour hit the French coast.

1:33:44 > 1:33:46In Brittany, sea defences were breached and waves flooded

1:33:46 > 1:33:47into the streets.

1:33:47 > 1:33:52And high winds in Paris brought down scaffolding.

1:33:52 > 1:33:56In Switzerland, 25 people were stuck inside a cable car due to strong

1:33:56 > 1:33:58winds - later being rescued by helicopter -

1:33:58 > 1:34:05and a train was blown off the tracks near Lucerne injuring eight people.

1:34:05 > 1:34:07Coming up on the programme.

1:34:07 > 1:34:16Matt will have the weather in around ten minutes.

1:34:16 > 1:34:21We are going to come to the Ashes in a moment that another big story

1:34:21 > 1:34:24coming out of Australia, Andy Murray is flying home because of his

1:34:24 > 1:34:28ongoing hip injury. He had already pulled out of the Brisbane

1:34:28 > 1:34:40International. He is withdrawn from that and is flying home. We don't

1:34:40 > 1:34:47know what is going to happen. This has been ongoing since Wimbledon. We

1:34:47 > 1:34:53saw this with the US Open and now the Australian Open. Six months

1:34:53 > 1:34:59since he last played. It is possibly the toll of playing so many matches.

1:34:59 > 1:35:04These days, on the way to doing that, you play at 70 games a season.

1:35:04 > 1:35:05Is that too much?

1:35:05 > 1:35:07So perhaps not a surprise but Andy Murray is out

1:35:07 > 1:35:08So perhaps not a surprise but Andy Murray is out

1:35:08 > 1:35:12of the Australian Open - he's decided to pull out

1:35:12 > 1:35:13of the tournament and fly home.

1:35:13 > 1:35:15The former world number one,

1:35:15 > 1:35:17hasn't played a competitive match, since his defeat in the,

1:35:17 > 1:35:20Wimbeldon quarter final, last July due to that hip injury

1:35:20 > 1:35:22and has decided to focus on re-habilitation.

1:35:22 > 1:35:25In a statement relased in the last half hour,

1:35:25 > 1:35:28he said, he's "not yet ready to compete" but he "hopes to be

1:35:28 > 1:35:31back playing soon".

1:35:31 > 1:35:35And hopefully it's not as serious, but it seems the British players

1:35:35 > 1:35:37are cursed with hip injuries, because Britain's number one

1:35:37 > 1:35:39in the women's game, Yohanna Konta has retired

1:35:39 > 1:35:42from her quarter final at the Brisbane International this

1:35:42 > 1:35:43morning, against Elina Svitolina.

1:35:43 > 1:35:45Konta took the decision just two games, after treatment

1:35:45 > 1:35:46for a hip problem.

1:35:46 > 1:36:05It's unclear how serious the injury is.

1:36:05 > 1:36:07Slightly more heartening news from Sydney where a half century

1:36:07 > 1:36:10from England captain Joe Root has steadied things for the tourists

1:36:10 > 1:36:13on a rain affected opening day of the fifth Test.

1:36:13 > 1:36:16Sorry about that, I sat on my microphone.

1:36:16 > 1:36:21Root won the toss and put England in to bat and they were going well

1:36:21 > 1:36:24at 88/1.

1:36:24 > 1:36:26Before losing both James Vince and Alastair Cook,

1:36:26 > 1:36:29in quick succession and England were 95 for 3.

1:36:29 > 1:36:33In partnership with Dawid Malan though, Root is looking good

1:36:33 > 1:36:47and helping England to a more healthy position.

1:36:47 > 1:36:54He's currently 72 not out and Malan 51 not out.

1:36:54 > 1:36:58And England are 213/3.

1:36:58 > 1:37:02A couple of hours lost to rain at the start of the day in this fifth

1:37:02 > 1:37:02test.

1:37:02 > 1:37:05One of the most dramatic games of the Premier League season,

1:37:05 > 1:37:08saw Arsenal and Chelsea draw 2-2 at the Emirates.

1:37:08 > 1:37:10Arsenal had gone in front, through Jack Wilshere,

1:37:10 > 1:37:12but the England midfielder's goal, was cancelled out

1:37:12 > 1:37:13by a controversial penalty.

1:37:13 > 1:37:15Eden Hazard converted it for Chelsea, to leave

1:37:15 > 1:37:16Arsene Wenger unhappy.

1:37:16 > 1:37:19Marcos Alonso, then thought he'd won it for the Blues,

1:37:19 > 1:37:21before Hector Bellerin, got Arsenal's equaliser

1:37:21 > 1:37:22in stoppage time.

1:37:22 > 1:37:24Chelsea stay third behind Manchester United, Arsenal are five

1:37:24 > 1:37:35points off the top four.

1:37:35 > 1:37:38I love football and I would like to talk about football, not about

1:37:38 > 1:37:39I love football and I would like to talk about football, not about

1:37:39 > 1:37:46referees and that would be nice at some stage.But they were also some

1:37:46 > 1:37:50thrilling moments to concentrate on? Yes, it was a great football game.

1:37:50 > 1:37:54And you come here, you see football and that's what you want people to

1:37:54 > 1:37:57talk about.

1:37:57 > 1:38:04An exciting game for people watching this game. Unless for us, for me.

1:38:04 > 1:38:12And also for the players. There is a disappointment at the end because I

1:38:12 > 1:38:22think that when you are so close to winning the game.And Spurs play

1:38:22 > 1:38:26West Ham tonight. A footnote on the tennis. The first time since

1:38:26 > 1:38:31rankings began, 42 of the world's top 100 in the men's game are over

1:38:31 > 1:38:3630. Players are going on for longer. That is why there are more injury

1:38:36 > 1:38:41stories. Bodies can't cope with the impact of playing so many matches.

1:38:41 > 1:38:46You make it sound so depressing being over 30. It's not old.Of

1:38:46 > 1:38:51course it's not old but in tennis, in the modern game, and the number

1:38:51 > 1:39:03of matches they play. We wish him a speedy recovery.

1:39:03 > 1:39:09We will bring you up-to-date with the weather situation across the UK.

1:39:09 > 1:39:20Eleonora still making an impact. According to a new study, one in

1:39:20 > 1:39:24four in expectant mothers develop mental health problems before giving

1:39:24 > 1:39:27birth.

1:39:27 > 1:39:30Researchers at King's College London, who carried out

1:39:30 > 1:39:31psychological screening at midwives appointments,

1:39:31 > 1:39:35found that 11 per cent of women had depression whilst 15 per cent showed

1:39:35 > 1:39:36signs of anxiety.

1:39:36 > 1:39:38We're joined now from London by report author,

1:39:38 > 1:39:40Professor Louise Howard, and here in the studio,

1:39:40 > 1:39:43Rachel Brown, a mum of three who has had pre-natal

1:39:43 > 1:39:43and post-natal depression.

1:39:43 > 1:39:47Louise, let's talk to you first of all. For we find out about your

1:39:47 > 1:39:57story, what is different? -- before. Pregnancy is not protective. They

1:39:57 > 1:40:03used to be a myth that mental health was great in pregnancy and it was

1:40:03 > 1:40:06the post-natal period that women needed to be thinking about when it

1:40:06 > 1:40:12came to mental health problems but actually, this study shows are in at

1:40:12 > 1:40:19all protective, that one in four the pregnant women in South London had a

1:40:19 > 1:40:25mental health diagnosis when assessed using a diagnostic tool by

1:40:25 > 1:40:30our research team.Rachel, just share your experience. What

1:40:30 > 1:40:39happened?I had three babies later on in life. 35, 38 and 40 two. I had

1:40:39 > 1:40:44suffered on an off of depression before I was pregnant so I knew what

1:40:44 > 1:40:51depression felt like. And it's something you can't tell. You start

1:40:51 > 1:40:56to feel, I know I felt useless, I felt a bit gross, I didn't feel

1:40:56 > 1:41:04confident. And then you start to worry about what's going to happen

1:41:04 > 1:41:12when the baby is born. On my third pregnancy, I was convinced they were

1:41:12 > 1:41:17going to take my baby away the sooner she was born. I really did

1:41:17 > 1:41:28believe that.Were you able to share this at the time?? Yes. A lot of

1:41:28 > 1:41:32people think they are just having a bad day. But when it carries on

1:41:32 > 1:41:40every hour, because I knew a bit about depression, I do talk about it

1:41:40 > 1:41:46stop I shout about it. I can help people. I will shout louder.While

1:41:46 > 1:41:52it was happening to you? Were you able to talk to people about it?I

1:41:52 > 1:41:57spoke to my mum and sister. I found that the me personally, going to see

1:41:57 > 1:42:01a psychiatrist or a psychologist and stuff like that, at first didn't

1:42:01 > 1:42:08help me because that then made the certified.Did you find in the

1:42:08 > 1:42:15system with midwives or your GP, was anybody tried to ask you how he

1:42:15 > 1:42:23felt, how you were coping? Trying to identify any potential problems.For

1:42:23 > 1:42:31me, the system was in place. I will talk about it. Talking about people

1:42:31 > 1:42:38who don't know what's going on. We can't be feeling like that because

1:42:38 > 1:42:45it's going to really stupid.Hearing Rachel's story, she had experiences

1:42:45 > 1:42:50of depression before she had her baby. And was aware of the symptoms,

1:42:50 > 1:42:56how that can manifest. I was talking about identifying this with people

1:42:56 > 1:43:01in place in the system. How much is that reliant on the patient knowing

1:43:01 > 1:43:09that they are in trouble.What this shows is that midwives asking

1:43:09 > 1:43:12questions sensitively can identify, even when the women aren't aware

1:43:12 > 1:43:19that their symptoms are indicative of a mental illness. We found that

1:43:19 > 1:43:22using structured questions within the context of a general discussion

1:43:22 > 1:43:28about emotional as well is physical health in maternity care will

1:43:28 > 1:43:32actually help identify women.Are these questions asked during

1:43:32 > 1:43:41question -- during pregnancy or after. The National Institute

1:43:41 > 1:43:44guidelines recommended in 2014 that at every contact, women should be

1:43:44 > 1:43:49asked about emotional and physical health. Whether that happens, it's

1:43:49 > 1:43:54probably quite variable. Some midwives to feels confident about

1:43:54 > 1:43:57asking. It's important they are trained as they do feel confident

1:43:57 > 1:44:02about discussing mental and physical health, knowing what to do if

1:44:02 > 1:44:05somebody discloses to them that they have a disorder that needs

1:44:05 > 1:44:12treatment. Rachel, you are nodding in agreement.I wasn't particularly

1:44:12 > 1:44:18asked by midwives in the hospital but it was me giving them the

1:44:18 > 1:44:23information. This is how I am feeling. If there are people out

1:44:23 > 1:44:27there have felt as I did. But were too frightened to speak and that is

1:44:27 > 1:44:34normally the case. Then they will be stuck.What do you need to be asked?

1:44:34 > 1:44:39There are two questions that are used in the screening process.

1:44:39 > 1:44:42During the past month, had he been bothered by feeling down and

1:44:42 > 1:44:46depressed? Have you been bothered by having little interest or pleasure

1:44:46 > 1:44:55in doing things? Are those affected questions? -- effective?

1:44:55 > 1:45:00Yes, but if you are a professional, then you

1:45:00 > 1:45:02Yes, but if you are a professional, then you should be able to see the

1:45:02 > 1:45:06reaction to those questions and then keep prodding. It is really

1:45:06 > 1:45:10important to find these ladies. I met people who did not know they

1:45:10 > 1:45:15have post-natal depression and they just suffered in silence. Not just

1:45:15 > 1:45:20post-natal depression, depression completely. It is getting out now.

1:45:20 > 1:45:29It has been A to -- a Tabou subject. It is an illness and you can't do

1:45:29 > 1:45:33anything about it. You need help. Whether that is going to the doctor

1:45:33 > 1:45:39to get some tablets. As I said, for me, going to a psychiatrist,

1:45:39 > 1:45:44psychologists, it made me feel even more depressed. You go in and you

1:45:44 > 1:45:49poor out your heart and you have a week to get over it and you go back

1:45:49 > 1:45:52and do it again.Really appreciate you sharing your story this morning.

1:45:52 > 1:45:58Thank you for your time, Professor, as well. Let's find out

1:45:58 > 1:45:58Thank you for your time, Professor, as well. Let's find out what is

1:45:58 > 1:46:04happening with the weather. Good morning. More strong wind set to

1:46:04 > 1:46:08push across the south of the UK after a quiet start. Temperatures

1:46:08 > 1:46:12this morning have been around 12 or 13 degrees in the south-west of

1:46:12 > 1:46:17England, -1 in the north of Scotland, and with the contrast in

1:46:17 > 1:46:22between there is rain. Wet in Northern Ireland, sleet and snow,

1:46:22 > 1:46:25turning word in southern Scotland, playing in northern England, but

1:46:25 > 1:46:29where we have a patchy rain or drizzle in the south, the skies will

1:46:29 > 1:46:33brighten and the wind will strengthen with 70 mph around the

1:46:33 > 1:46:38coast, causing damage, destruction, with 50 or 60 mph winds into the

1:46:38 > 1:46:44afternoon. Wind is like in northern Scotland once again. There will be

1:46:44 > 1:46:50one or two showers around and cloud increases after a bright start.

1:46:50 > 1:46:53Central, southern Scotland, the rain will be with you for 24 hours, if

1:46:53 > 1:46:59not longer. The rain will ease off in Northern Ireland. It is wet in

1:46:59 > 1:47:04northern England. Sleet and snow over high ground. Around Merseyside,

1:47:04 > 1:47:09Liverpool Bay, the winds At around 60 mph. And widespread

1:47:09 > 1:47:15gales further south -- winds peak. Things will be brighter this

1:47:15 > 1:47:18afternoon. Into tonight the rain returns to southern counties of

1:47:18 > 1:47:22England and Wales. The wind will strengthen with severe gales into

1:47:22 > 1:47:28the south-west once more. Any spells of clear skies and it will be a

1:47:28 > 1:47:31chilly night with temperatures low enough for a touch of frost. Lots of

1:47:31 > 1:47:35cloud with the rain, sleet and snow. It will be there for much of Friday.

1:47:35 > 1:47:40Sunshine and showers to the north, we will see more in the way of

1:47:40 > 1:47:43breaks in the cloud in Northern Ireland but overall it is cloudy.

1:47:43 > 1:47:50England and Wales have cloudy spells, light wind and still breezy

1:47:50 > 1:47:56around the English Channel. Double figures today. It is turning colder.

1:47:56 > 1:48:01It will be colder into the weekend. Any plans this weekend, it should

1:48:01 > 1:48:05include a warm jacket because strong to gale force winds on Saturday

1:48:05 > 1:48:08coming from the north or north-east. With rain in the south it will be

1:48:08 > 1:48:12quite raw. Wintry showers in eastern Scotland and England. Bright weather

1:48:12 > 1:48:18in the north-west of the country. These are temperatures, 2- six

1:48:18 > 1:48:22degrees, and in the wind it will feel much colder. Temperatures close

1:48:22 > 1:48:26to freezing if not below for Scotland. Minus three degrees in the

1:48:26 > 1:48:33north-east and it will feel even colder into Sunday. High pressure is

1:48:33 > 1:48:37coming in so that things will turn dry but we still have a strong

1:48:37 > 1:48:40easterly winds through the English Channel will stop under the

1:48:40 > 1:48:46high-pressure temperatures as low as - ten. Sunday is not bad for many

1:48:46 > 1:48:48with lots of dry and sunny weather around. More strong winds

1:48:48 > 1:48:49with lots of dry and sunny weather around. More strong winds across the

1:48:49 > 1:48:58south. Thank you very much. It is still chilly.

1:48:58 > 1:49:00Following their engagement last year, preparations are now well

1:49:00 > 1:49:03under way for the wedding of Prince Harry and American actress

1:49:03 > 1:49:05Meghan Markle at Windsor Castle in May.

1:49:05 > 1:49:08But one local councillor has suggested those preparations should

1:49:08 > 1:49:11include a crackdown on what he calls "aggressive begging" in the town.

1:49:11 > 1:49:14Borough council leader Simon Dudley has written an open letter

1:49:14 > 1:49:16to Thames Valley Police, describing an "epidemic of rough

1:49:16 > 1:49:18sleeping and vagrancy", claiming some people can make

1:49:18 > 1:49:21hundreds of pounds a day from unsuspecting tourists.

1:49:21 > 1:49:23Murphy James from the Windsor Homeless Project

1:49:23 > 1:49:26joins us from the town.

1:49:26 > 1:49:32Thank you for your time this morning. Can I first ask your

1:49:32 > 1:49:38reaction to Simon Dudley's comments. It is just unbelievable really. It

1:49:38 > 1:49:46is appalling behaviour from anybody, let alone the leader of RBWM

1:49:46 > 1:49:49council. It is harping back to an age in which people were divided by

1:49:49 > 1:49:56well. We shouldn't live in that age any more. It is still 2018, not 1824

1:49:56 > 1:50:01any more.Can you expand on that, you say it is appalling behaviour.

1:50:01 > 1:50:06Which part is most unpalatable, the fact that he is linking clearing the

1:50:06 > 1:50:10streets and head of the Royal assent, which part do you find most

1:50:10 > 1:50:17offensive?-- Royal event. Several parts I find offensive. The letter

1:50:17 > 1:50:26that he wrote to PCC Standsfeld, the bullet points, they are totally

1:50:26 > 1:50:31misinformed. The night shelter for instance, you can't just turn up if

1:50:31 > 1:50:35you find yourself homeless at one point. It is something you need to

1:50:35 > 1:50:38be registered for with the council and they will place you. It is not

1:50:38 > 1:50:43somewhere you can turn up for emergency accommodation. The most

1:50:43 > 1:50:48gutting part about it is that the royal wedding has been put before

1:50:48 > 1:50:52these people taking residence in Basel this. It shouldn't have

1:50:52 > 1:50:56anything to do with the royal wedding -- in bus shelters. It

1:50:56 > 1:51:01should be to do with the fact that someone is sleeping in a bus

1:51:01 > 1:51:05shelter.Yes, Mr Dudley we understand has tweeted about what he

1:51:05 > 1:51:08calls this epidemic of rough sleeping and vagrancy and one of the

1:51:08 > 1:51:11issues he has raised is he is suggesting some people are making

1:51:11 > 1:51:18life choices about the lies they are leading, living on the streets, and

1:51:18 > 1:51:25begging. What do you make of that? It is just... It is something that I

1:51:25 > 1:51:32can't swallow. For anybody to sit in a doorway and ask for people's spare

1:51:32 > 1:51:35change means that they have a lack of self-esteem and a lack of

1:51:35 > 1:51:39self-confidence and a lack of self-worth. We should be going to

1:51:39 > 1:51:42these people and saying, how can we help you, why are you in this

1:51:42 > 1:51:47doorway and how can we make it so you don't have to sit in the doorway

1:51:47 > 1:51:50rather than pointing the finger at people and saying you are a vagrant.

1:51:50 > 1:51:55I am not familiar with what the local has or has not done over the

1:51:55 > 1:52:01years, does it tied into anything in relation to what the council has or

1:52:01 > 1:52:07hasn't done in relation to homeless people?I can only speak from March

1:52:07 > 1:52:162016, when I was put in post as manager of the project. Since then,

1:52:16 > 1:52:20with my relationship with their housing options team, we got a

1:52:20 > 1:52:24housing officer to come on a weekly basis, so throughout building that

1:52:24 > 1:52:27relationship we have managed to house 40 people in the last 18

1:52:27 > 1:52:31months. So they have done positive things, they have, but they haven't

1:52:31 > 1:52:35done enough, they haven't put enough forward in order to make sure that

1:52:35 > 1:52:39everybody that needs to be helped is helped. It is a mental health

1:52:39 > 1:52:44crisis. And that is where we are at the moment. We have no mental health

1:52:44 > 1:52:49support. It is the HMG services designed to help with as little

1:52:49 > 1:52:53amount of people as possible and we need to change it so that all

1:52:53 > 1:52:58individuals are catered for and can get help.I hope you can hear me OK

1:52:58 > 1:53:03with the street sweeper going behind you. I know you mentioned the point

1:53:03 > 1:53:06at the beginning that there should be no link made with the royal

1:53:06 > 1:53:10wedding. We have had no official comment from the royal family about

1:53:10 > 1:53:15this so far. Many people were alluding to the fact that the royal

1:53:15 > 1:53:19family do a lot of charity work linked with homelessness. Meghan

1:53:19 > 1:53:22Markle has done some work for homeless charities in America as

1:53:22 > 1:53:30well. They seem to have unwittingly being drawn into this.It is

1:53:30 > 1:53:37disgusting. They might be the royal family, but it is their wedding day,

1:53:37 > 1:53:42and I wish them well, as I wish anyone well. It should not be the

1:53:42 > 1:53:47cause of such outrageous comments from the supposedly do of RBWM

1:53:47 > 1:53:56council. -- suppose it leader of RBWM council.Thank you for your

1:53:56 > 1:54:00time.

1:54:00 > 1:54:06Ben is having a look today at the issue of automation, robots in the

1:54:06 > 1:54:09workplace, how quickly they can replace someone on low wages. Let's

1:54:09 > 1:54:17talk to him now. Morning. Welcome to Ashington,

1:54:17 > 1:54:22Newcastle, and we are at a Dulux paint factory. They get a lot of

1:54:22 > 1:54:29paint here. 100 million litres a year. 33,000 different colour

1:54:29 > 1:54:33combinations. You will notice there are not many staff here. Normally on

1:54:33 > 1:54:37production lines you would expect to see quite a lot of staff packing or

1:54:37 > 1:54:42loading. They have automated the process. Jeff is the site manager.

1:54:42 > 1:54:47Good morning. We are on this line. Normally there would be a lot of

1:54:47 > 1:54:55people loading machines and putting things in crates. There are not any,

1:54:55 > 1:54:58why?Traditionally in manufacturing you would see labour intensive

1:54:58 > 1:55:04manual handling tasks, but the business we are in with

1:55:04 > 1:55:08manufacturing Dulux products is that we have to ensure that we are always

1:55:08 > 1:55:12number one and that we ensure that the technology that is developed

1:55:12 > 1:55:17gets in the cans for customers. That means that we will invest in the

1:55:17 > 1:55:21latest technology to do that. So typically where you would see people

1:55:21 > 1:55:28doing more manual tasks, what we have is the same number of people,

1:55:28 > 1:55:33but they are working on different tasks. So we automate the tasks, not

1:55:33 > 1:55:37the roles, which have changed, with more technicians, more engineers,

1:55:37 > 1:55:41who are working in and around the factory, we keep all of this in

1:55:41 > 1:55:45production. It also keeps us competitive and at the front where

1:55:45 > 1:55:50we need to be.Thank you for now. We will chat later. It is an issue when

1:55:50 > 1:55:54it comes to training. It is good to get rid of the low skilled jobs,

1:55:54 > 1:55:57what about the people, are there people with the right skills?

1:55:57 > 1:56:00Stephen is from the University business school. It is interesting

1:56:00 > 1:56:04to talk about getting rid of jobs robots can do but what about the

1:56:04 > 1:56:08people who might be working in these jobs, the low skilled jobs, the

1:56:08 > 1:56:13minimum wage, great news to see it go up, is it a danger it will price

1:56:13 > 1:56:18people out of the market?There is a danger of that. On a theoretical

1:56:18 > 1:56:21level we could get to the place where firms say they cannot afford

1:56:21 > 1:56:25to employ people. The way that the minimum wage has been set up and

1:56:25 > 1:56:31develop so fart we are not approaching that.What does it mean

1:56:31 > 1:56:37about productivity? We have been told that machines will make it more

1:56:37 > 1:56:41productive. Is it working?Ideally we will try to move towards an

1:56:41 > 1:56:44economy that is high productivity, high wage and high skill and that

1:56:44 > 1:56:50really relies on high levels of investment as well in these kinds of

1:56:50 > 1:56:56technology. Yes, we get winners as well as losers.For now, thank you,

1:56:56 > 1:57:02it is good to talk to you. That is really what this place is all about.

1:57:02 > 1:57:07They have automated the production line. Getting the skills upstairs in

1:57:07 > 2:00:30engineering areas. We will talk about this later. Before

2:00:30 > 2:00:31in half an hour.

2:00:31 > 2:00:32Bye for now.

2:00:38 > 2:00:40Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.

2:00:40 > 2:00:42Children as young as 11 stressed out by social media.

2:00:42 > 2:00:45Parents and teachers are warned it's time to take action.

2:00:45 > 2:00:47In the past hour, the Children's Commissioner for England has told

2:00:47 > 2:00:49Breakfast that too many pupils aren't equipped to deal

2:00:49 > 2:00:59with the pressure placed on them by apps and the internet.

2:01:04 > 2:01:06Good morning, it's Thursday 4th January.

2:01:06 > 2:01:09Also this morning.

2:01:09 > 2:01:11Figures out later will give a clearer picture how

2:01:11 > 2:01:13the health service in England is coping with winter.

2:01:13 > 2:01:23We'll look at what might help ease the strain on the NHS across the UK.

2:01:23 > 2:01:26The leader of Windsor council calls for police to tackle what he calls

2:01:26 > 2:01:28"aggressive begging" in the town before Prince Harry

2:01:28 > 2:01:30and Meghan Markle get married there in May.

2:01:30 > 2:01:33Donald Trump turns on the man who helped him to the White House,

2:01:33 > 2:01:41Steve Bannon, after he accuses the President's son of treason.

2:01:41 > 2:01:45Could a rise in the minimum wage be a threat to jobs? A new report says

2:01:45 > 2:01:50employers could replace more of us with robots like this if wages rise

2:01:50 > 2:01:55too quickly, what does it mean? I am at this factory near Newcastle this

2:01:55 > 2:01:57morning to fine out.

2:01:57 > 2:02:00In sport - one British player's out of the Australian Open,

2:02:00 > 2:02:02is the other also now a doubt?

2:02:02 > 2:02:04Andy Murray won't play in Melbourne, due to his hip injury,

2:02:04 > 2:02:06while Johanna Konta withdraws, from a warm up event

2:02:06 > 2:02:08with a similar problem

2:02:08 > 2:02:10And it was all going better in Sydney -

2:02:10 > 2:02:13but after making a half century, Joe Root has just been

2:02:13 > 2:02:14dismissed for 83.

2:02:14 > 2:02:17England are 228 for 4, on a rain affected opening

2:02:17 > 2:02:19day of the Fifth Test.

2:02:19 > 2:02:22And Matt has the weather.

2:02:22 > 2:02:26Good morning. Some wet weather round to start your day, but while skies

2:02:26 > 2:02:31bright none the south this morning, severe gales will be back. I have

2:02:31 > 2:02:33the details on that in the next is a minutes.

2:02:33 > 2:02:34minutes.

2:02:34 > 2:02:35Good morning.

2:02:35 > 2:02:36First, our main story.

2:02:36 > 2:02:39The Children's Commissioner for England is warning that social

2:02:39 > 2:02:41media is placing children as young as 11 under increasing levels

2:02:41 > 2:02:42of stress and anxiety.

2:02:42 > 2:02:45Anne Longfield says too many pupils are becoming dependent on social

2:02:45 > 2:02:47media "likes" and comments in order to fit in,

2:02:47 > 2:02:49and she's now urging parents, teachers and internet

2:02:49 > 2:02:50companies to take action.

2:02:50 > 2:02:52The Government says it's working closely with schools on online

2:02:52 > 2:02:55safety education so young people can "manage potential risks".

2:02:55 > 2:03:04Elaine Dunkley has this report.

2:03:04 > 2:03:06With social media in the hands of children, there are challenges

2:03:06 > 2:03:08of growing up in a digital age.

2:03:08 > 2:03:12In a report released today called Life in Likes,

2:03:12 > 2:03:18there are warnings many children in secondary

2:03:18 > 2:03:22school are struggling to handle social media as the world expands.

2:03:22 > 2:03:25I feel like I'm pressured by other people because my friends do it

2:03:25 > 2:03:27so I have to do it to fit in.

2:03:27 > 2:03:29You see people, if they're getting bullied on social

2:03:29 > 2:03:31media, they don't tell their parents.

2:03:31 > 2:03:35If you don't tell them, they will never find out.

2:03:35 > 2:03:37The report shows that as children move schools from primary

2:03:37 > 2:03:41to secondary, the way they use social media changes.

2:03:41 > 2:03:43Instead of scoring points playing games, getting likes and comments

2:04:54 > 2:04:57The council leader in Windsor has called for action to tackle

2:04:57 > 2:04:58"aggressive begging", ahead of the wedding

2:04:58 > 2:05:01of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the town in May.

2:05:01 > 2:05:03Councillor Simon Dudley has written an open letter

2:05:03 > 2:05:05to the Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner,

2:05:05 > 2:05:07asking him to address an "epidemic of rough sleeping and vagrancy".

2:05:07 > 2:05:09It's led to a backlash from homeless charities.

2:05:09 > 2:05:16Our correspondent Jon Donnison is in Windsor this morning.

2:05:16 > 2:05:20Understandably these charities upset, but also many acknowledging

2:05:20 > 2:05:26that there is an issue to be tackled.That is right. I think this

2:05:26 > 2:05:30all started with a series of tweets that Simon Dudley sent over

2:05:30 > 2:05:35Christmas, while he was apparently on holiday in the US UK, he began by

2:05:35 > 2:05:40saying there was an epidemic of rough sleeping and vagrancy in

2:05:40 > 2:05:45Windsor, he went on to say that tourists were being frog-marched to

2:05:45 > 2:05:50cashpoints by people begging, and that some of the people begging in

2:05:50 > 2:05:56fact had homes and were earning up to £200 a day. He has since written

2:05:56 > 2:05:59this letter to the Thames Valley Police and crime commissioner, he

2:05:59 > 2:06:04again said that many of the people begging weren't actually homeless

2:06:04 > 2:06:08and the ones that were, were homeless by choice. Because they had

2:06:08 > 2:06:13chosen not to accept services provided by the council. Now as you

2:06:13 > 2:06:18say, this has angered charities working with homeless people, we

2:06:18 > 2:06:24have been getting some reaction from Murphy James from the Windsor

2:06:24 > 2:06:30Homeless Project who said the comments were sickening For anybody

2:06:30 > 2:06:32to homeless and the ones that were, were homeless by choice. Because

2:06:32 > 2:06:34they had chosen not to accept services provided by the council.

2:06:34 > 2:06:36Now as you say, this has angered charities working with homeless

2:06:36 > 2:06:39people, we have been getting some reaction from Murphy James from the

2:06:39 > 2:06:41Windsor Homeless Project who said the comments were sickening For

2:06:41 > 2:06:44anybody to sit in a door "and ask for change means they have a lack of

2:06:44 > 2:06:46self confidence, and we should be going to these people and saying how

2:06:46 > 2:06:49can we help you, why are you sat in the door way. Instead of pointing

2:06:49 > 2:06:51the finger at people and saying you are a vagrant.

2:06:51 > 2:06:54Now, of course, the councillor said there was urgency in this matter,

2:06:54 > 2:06:58because of course, you have the Royal Wedding coming up on May 19th,

2:06:58 > 2:07:04it will be interesting to see what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have

2:07:04 > 2:07:10to say on this if they are asked, I think nobody is denying there is a

2:07:10 > 2:07:13problem with homelessness and people begging in Windsor, as indeed in

2:07:13 > 2:07:17many other parts of the country, the question is the reason why, and

2:07:17 > 2:07:22whether those people should be treated as criminals, as the

2:07:22 > 2:07:25councillor seems to be suggesting or as people who need help.

2:07:25 > 2:07:29Thank you very much.

2:07:29 > 2:07:31President Trump has accused his former chief strategist

2:07:31 > 2:07:33of "losing his mind", after he lost his job

2:07:33 > 2:07:34at the White House.

2:07:34 > 2:07:36Steve Bannon was one of the President's closest advisors

2:07:36 > 2:07:38until last year and helped shape Mr Trump's "America First"

2:07:38 > 2:07:40campaign message.

2:07:40 > 2:07:43Now he's been quoted in a new book saying that the President's son

2:07:43 > 2:07:45Donald Jr was "treasonous" for meeting with Russians.

2:07:45 > 2:07:55Our North America correspondent, Peter Bowes, reports.

2:07:55 > 2:07:56They were once as thick as thieves.

2:07:56 > 2:07:59Steve Bannon helped to shape the America First campaign that

2:07:59 > 2:08:00elected Donald Trump.

2:08:00 > 2:08:03In the White House, he was a key player.

2:08:03 > 2:08:04He had the ear of the President.

2:08:04 > 2:08:06But his job as chief strategist was short-lived.

2:08:06 > 2:08:09He promised to be the president's wingman outside but this book

2:08:09 > 2:08:13reveals a different story.

2:08:13 > 2:08:16The most damaging claim is that Steve Bannon viewed a meeting

2:08:16 > 2:08:18between Donald Trump, Jr and a group of Russians

2:08:18 > 2:08:23during the campaign and considered it treasonous.

2:08:23 > 2:08:25Also a meeting between Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner.

2:08:25 > 2:08:27"The three senior guys in the campaign thought

2:08:27 > 2:08:36it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government

2:08:36 > 2:08:38inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor

2:08:38 > 2:08:40with no lawyers," Bannon is quoted as saying.

2:08:40 > 2:08:43He adds that after the meeting they should have called

2:08:43 > 2:08:51the FBI immediately.

2:08:51 > 2:08:53The President has hit back in a scathing statement.

2:08:53 > 2:08:56White House press secretary Sarah Sanders has condemned

2:08:56 > 2:09:02the contents of the book as completely untrue.

2:09:02 > 2:09:05I think it is a ridiculous accusation and I am sure we have

2:09:05 > 2:09:06addressed many times here before.

2:09:06 > 2:09:09The book also says the Steve Bannon believes the Russians were taken

2:09:09 > 2:09:11after the meeting to meet Donald Trump.

2:09:11 > 2:09:17The President has always denied that happened.

2:09:17 > 2:09:19With the ongoing investigation into possible Russian collusion

2:09:19 > 2:09:21in the presidential election, this explosive row between

2:09:21 > 2:09:23Donald Trump and his once trusted ally has left Washington stunned.

2:09:23 > 2:09:33Peter Bowes, BBC News.

2:09:37 > 2:09:39Australian authorities have begun recovering the wreckage

2:09:39 > 2:09:41of a seaplane that crashed near Sydney, killing six people.

2:09:43 > 2:09:46and her daughter died alongside a Canadian pilot when their plane

2:09:46 > 2:09:48plunged into the Hawkesbury River on New Year's Eve.

2:09:48 > 2:09:51Our correspondent Phil Mercer is live just outside Sydney for us -

2:09:51 > 2:09:57what's the latest there?

2:09:57 > 2:10:04It has been a busy morning, bring us up-to-date.Well, in the past 15

2:10:04 > 2:10:09minutes or so, we have just seen the barge that is carrying the wreckage

2:10:09 > 2:10:15of the sea plane sail past, escorted by a police launch. It has travelled

2:10:15 > 2:10:20from Jerusalem bay where the aircraft ditched on New Year's Eve,

2:10:20 > 2:10:24and all throughout today, police divers have been using inflatable

2:10:24 > 2:10:27bags and large slings to bring those pieces of wreckage to the surface,
