0:00:05 > 0:00:07Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga

0:00:07 > 0:00:15Munchetty.

0:00:15 > 0:00:23A Donald Trump visit to the UK is back on. He confirms talks are under

0:00:23 > 0:00:36way for a trip in the second half of the year.

0:00:36 > 0:00:37Good morning.

0:00:37 > 0:00:38It's Friday the 26th January.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Also this morning:

0:00:40 > 0:00:42"Stop prescribing antibiotics for sore throats."

0:00:42 > 0:00:50The NHS medicines watchdog tells doctors to use paracetamol instead.

0:00:58 > 0:01:04BBC presenters agreed to take salary cuts for a quality.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07We hear from the family of a 13-year-old boy who was killed

0:01:07 > 0:01:08in an accident with one.

0:01:08 > 0:01:22Good morning. A weak pound has given exporters a boost, meaning they can

0:01:22 > 0:01:25sell more overseas. How was the rest of the economy? We will get the

0:01:25 > 0:01:33latest official figures this morning.One of the worst starts

0:01:33 > 0:01:36ever for an England cricketer, five wickets out

0:01:36 > 0:01:37ever for an England cricketer, five wickets out for eight runs. And

0:01:37 > 0:01:41Sarah has the weather.Good morning. A chilly start to the day. Mist and

0:01:41 > 0:01:51fog. A dry day ahead. Blue sky and sunshine as well. All of the details

0:01:51 > 0:01:56coming up.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Donald Trump will visit the UK later this year,

0:01:59 > 0:02:00it has been confirmed.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Downing Street has said Donald Trump will once again

0:02:02 > 0:02:04confirm his commitment to put America first

0:02:04 > 0:02:07when he delivers his keynote speech in Davos later.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09The President met Theresa May yesterday, denying any rift

0:02:09 > 0:02:11in the so-called special relationship.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Business presenter Sally Bundock is in Davos for us.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Sally, the US President is making all the headlines

0:02:16 > 0:02:18there, isn't he?

0:02:18 > 0:02:26Good morning.Good morning.The trip we were waiting for. Pomp and

0:02:26 > 0:02:32circumstance surrounding that. What did he say?There was a

0:02:32 > 0:02:33circumstance surrounding that. What did he say?There was a lot of

0:02:33 > 0:02:36attention, as you can imagine, on his meeting with the UK Prime

0:02:36 > 0:02:40Minister, the reason may. It was their first meeting since clashing

0:02:40 > 0:02:47over the tweets of far right videos in November. -- Theresa May. It is

0:02:47 > 0:02:50the first time they met since cancelling his trip earlier this

0:02:50 > 0:02:51month in London.

0:02:53 > 0:03:01He criticised the new US embassy. There has been a lot of talk about

0:03:01 > 0:03:06the special relationship between them. They met and discussed many

0:03:06 > 0:03:11issues. He said they were joined at the hip when it comes to military

0:03:11 > 0:03:17matters. Donald Trump predicted a tremendous amount of trade,

0:03:17 > 0:03:22increasing trade, between the countries once the UK leads the

0:03:22 > 0:03:26European Union. There has been a lot of talk about the body language

0:03:26 > 0:03:31between them. He was his usual self in terms of how he was portraying

0:03:31 > 0:03:37himself in front of the press. But Theresa May looked more awkward and

0:03:37 > 0:03:42gingerly sitting next to him as it were. It is interesting how people

0:03:42 > 0:03:47interpret how they are getting on. President Trump was definitely at

0:03:47 > 0:03:51pains to say the special relationship still exists. When

0:03:51 > 0:03:55pressed about his reasons for coming here to the World Economic Forum in

0:03:55 > 0:04:00Davos, this is what he said.I don't think elitist, globalist, I thought

0:04:00 > 0:04:07many people that want to invest lots of money. They are coming back to

0:04:07 > 0:04:11the United States, they are coming back to America to be I thought of

0:04:11 > 0:04:15it in those terms. After I said I was going, there were many stories

0:04:15 > 0:04:20about the elite and the globalist and planes flying in and everything

0:04:20 > 0:04:25else. It is not about that, it is about investing money, jobs coming

0:04:25 > 0:04:31in, creating jobs. We are setting records every week, every day, we

0:04:31 > 0:04:36are setting records.When he was walking among the delegates

0:04:36 > 0:04:39yesterday, I was trying to get a picture like everyone else. It is

0:04:39 > 0:04:44interesting, the awkward feeling, in mixed reception he is receiving. He

0:04:44 > 0:04:50had a speech later today. Lots of anticipation about what he will say.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Thank you very much, Sally

0:04:52 > 0:04:54anticipation about what he will say. Thank you very much, Sally. Sally

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Bundock.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00Just after 7am, we'll be speaking to an American journalist who has

0:05:00 > 0:05:02been following what he calls the "Trump circus" in Davos.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05There's dispute at the heart of the Government this morning,

0:05:05 > 0:05:08after Downing Street gave a public rebuke of comments made

0:05:08 > 0:05:11by the Chancellor Philip Hammond at the World Economic Forum in

0:05:11 > 0:05:11Switzerland.

0:05:11 > 0:05:14It comes as the Brexit Secretary, David Davis, prepares to set

0:05:14 > 0:05:17out his vision for the next stage of talks about a transition

0:05:17 > 0:05:18period later today.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22At a speech in Davos, Mr Hammond said he hoped the UK

0:05:22 > 0:05:25and EU economies will only move "very modestly" apart after Brexit.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27To which a Number 10 spokesperson has said that government plans

0:05:27 > 0:05:30for Brexit "could not be described as very modest changes."

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Let's talk about this more with our political correspondent,

0:05:33 > 0:05:38Leila Nathoo, who joins us now from Westminster.

0:05:38 > 0:05:45Give us the oversight on how big a clash this is.Well, Philip Hammond

0:05:45 > 0:05:50subsequently tried to clarify his remarks, stating we are leaving the

0:05:50 > 0:05:55single market, the customs union, and that would be a change. But I

0:05:55 > 0:05:59think this is a reminder, really, that there is still no consensus at

0:05:59 > 0:06:02the very highest levels of government about what Brexit should

0:06:02 > 0:06:06look like the pit is no secret that Philip Hammond has been on the

0:06:06 > 0:06:11remaining side of the argument. He wants them to stick closely to the

0:06:11 > 0:06:15EU after Brexit. After those comments, there was noise from the

0:06:15 > 0:06:19other end of the Conservative Party. Jacob Rees-Mogg, a prominent

0:06:19 > 0:06:28backbencher, rough presenting Tory Eurosceptics. -- representing. He

0:06:28 > 0:06:33was critical of the approach to Brexit, saying he does not want to

0:06:33 > 0:06:39squander opportunities leaving the EU.For too long, negotiators seemed

0:06:39 > 0:06:47to be cowing to the EU, saying we have to accept what they want and

0:06:47 > 0:06:52build from that. That is no way to negotiate and for this country to

0:06:52 > 0:06:57behave.More flexing ahead of this speech by David Davis, the Brexit

0:06:57 > 0:07:02Secretary. He will lay out his vision for the transition period,

0:07:02 > 0:07:06the two year period after leaving the EU with much staying the same. I

0:07:06 > 0:07:11think this is something, the transition period, the government

0:07:11 > 0:07:16wants it sorted out as soon as possible. They say it will be the

0:07:16 > 0:07:22easy bit before tricky negotiations with Brussels about the end state of

0:07:22 > 0:07:26Brexit. There is no agreement back home about what exactly that should

0:07:26 > 0:07:35be. This is a reminder of that.For the moment, thank you.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Most sore throats should be treated with paracetamol rather

0:07:38 > 0:07:40than antibiotics, according to new guidance from

0:07:40 > 0:07:41the NHS medicines watchdog.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence,

0:07:43 > 0:07:46NICE, says the drugs are prescribed in 60% of cases,

0:07:46 > 0:07:47despite being mostly ineffective.

0:07:47 > 0:07:48Here's our health correspondent, Dominic Hughes.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51The overuse of antibiotics is leading to the development of

0:07:51 > 0:07:56bacteria resistant to these life-saving drugs. Leading health

0:07:56 > 0:08:01experts say this poses a serious threat to the UK to be if we lose

0:08:01 > 0:08:03the ability to fight infection, common medical procedures like

0:08:03 > 0:08:09Cesarean sections and cancer treatments could become too risky.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13Prescribing antibiotics to treat a sore throat is a prime example of

0:08:13 > 0:08:17the way they can be misused. Sore throats account for one in four GP

0:08:17 > 0:08:22appointments in the UK related to infections of the lungs and airways.

0:08:22 > 0:08:28Research suggests in 60% of those cases, antibiotics are prescribed.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32But most sore throats are caused by a viral infection, which antibiotics

0:08:32 > 0:08:38have no effect on.We have become a bit, umm, acclimatise to thinking we

0:08:38 > 0:08:43need antibiotics when we have something wrong with us. We do not.

0:08:43 > 0:08:51We just have to be re-educated, I guess, to preserve the use of

0:08:51 > 0:08:56antibiotics for really serious infections.The latest advice from

0:08:56 > 0:09:02the NHS medicines watchdog reminds doctors and nurses that most sore

0:09:02 > 0:09:05throats will be better within a week, and only the most serious

0:09:05 > 0:09:09bacterial infections need antibiotics. Most patients have been

0:09:09 > 0:09:22advised to drink plenty of fluids, take paracetamol or I

0:09:22 > 0:09:31take paracetamol or I -- Ibuprofen.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35More than 40 people have died after fire at a hospital in South

0:09:35 > 0:09:35Korea.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38It was thought to have started in the emergency room

0:09:38 > 0:09:41of the building in the city of Milyang in the south-east

0:09:41 > 0:09:42of the country.

0:09:42 > 0:09:50Around 100 patients were inside at the time.

0:09:54 > 0:09:55Businesses including Jamie Oliver's Italian restaurants,

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Hilton Hotels and the shopping channel QVC have all stopped selling

0:09:58 > 0:10:01some steak products, after the company that supplied them

0:10:01 > 0:10:03was placed under investigation by the Food Standards Agency.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Russel Hume, who also supply meat to the Wetherspoon's pub chain,

0:10:06 > 0:10:09said there has never been any suggestion that their products

0:10:09 > 0:10:11caused illness and that the recall was a "precautionary measure

0:10:11 > 0:10:13because of mislabelling."

0:10:13 > 0:10:16Several of the BBC's leading male news presenters and journalists have

0:10:16 > 0:10:18agreed to take salary cuts, following revelations about gender

0:10:18 > 0:10:20pay inequality at the corporation.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23An independent report on the issue is due to be published next week.

0:10:23 > 0:10:29Our media editor, Amol Rajan, reports.

0:10:29 > 0:10:35Hello. How do you feel about salaries being published.The

0:10:35 > 0:10:46publication of BBC people earning over £150 got a Dhammika outcry.

0:10:46 > 0:10:51Many people had the same job as women, though individual

0:10:51 > 0:10:55circumstances very a lot. Carrie Gracie resigned her post as China

0:10:55 > 0:10:59editor in process, saying she will return to London. Jon Sopel, John

0:10:59 > 0:11:05Humphrys, she would wince, and Jeremy, said they will have their

0:11:05 > 0:11:10salaries reduced. She is going to appear before a Select Committee

0:11:10 > 0:11:15next Wednesday shortly before the Governor-General, his deputy, and

0:11:15 > 0:11:22others appear. Whereas competition in the entertainment industry has

0:11:22 > 0:11:25intensified, the opposite is happening in news. Many secure

0:11:25 > 0:11:32generous deals years ago. That world has disappeared, and these people

0:11:32 > 0:11:36now have to get used to the fact their salaries will disappear with

0:11:36 > 0:11:45it.

0:11:45 > 0:11:48The number of pothole related breakdowns on British roads is

0:11:48 > 0:11:51rising, with the RAC blaming bad weather and a lack of investment.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55Councils say they would need to triple their road repair budgets to

0:11:55 > 0:11:57tackle a vast backlog of potholes. Our transport correspondent,

0:11:57 > 0:11:58Victoria Fritz, has more.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01They can cost hundreds of pounds' worth of damage

0:12:01 > 0:12:03and although councils fill in 2 million potholes a year,

0:12:03 > 0:12:06it seems like Britain's holes are crumbling faster they then

0:12:06 > 0:12:07can be repaired.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11It doesn't take a lot to damage a car. You can try to avoid them, you

0:12:11 > 0:12:15can't. You've only got to drive around this borough and you'll find

0:12:15 > 0:12:21loads of them.I take my children to school and come across quite a few

0:12:21 > 0:12:26potholes on the way, which is a bit dangerous with the car. It seems

0:12:26 > 0:12:30like after the horrible weather when you have ice or really cold weather,

0:12:30 > 0:12:31they all we seem to appear.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Normally potholes develop after wet and cold weather,

0:12:34 > 0:12:35but the RAC says it's seeing the number of breakdowns caused

0:12:35 > 0:12:37by driving in poor roads increase, regardless of the season.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40RAC patrols attended 2,830 potholes related breakdowns between October

0:12:40 > 0:12:41and December of last year.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44That's 11% more than the same period the year before.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Vehicles they attended typically suffered damaged shock absorbers,

0:12:46 > 0:12:54broken suspension springs and punctured wheels.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Our local roads have suffered from years of underinvestment, and we

0:12:57 > 0:13:01would like to see ring-fence funding put in place so councils can plan

0:13:01 > 0:13:04their work appropriately and really sort out the problem once and for

0:13:04 > 0:13:04all.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07The government says it's investing £23 billion to increase capacity

0:13:07 > 0:13:08and improve road journeys.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11The majority of that will go on major roads and motorways.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13With budgets under increasing strain, the pressure is mounting

0:13:13 > 0:13:17on councils to plug the gaps in local roads where most journeys

0:13:17 > 0:13:18begin or end.

0:13:18 > 0:13:22Victoria Fritz, BBC News.

0:13:22 > 0:13:26Plastic is one of the biggest threats to the future of coral reefs

0:13:26 > 0:13:27followed by increasing ocean temperatures,

0:13:27 > 0:13:28scientists are warning.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31More than 11 billion items of plastic were found on a third

0:13:31 > 0:13:35of coral reefs in the Asia-Pacific region, and this figure is predicted

0:13:35 > 0:13:37to increase to more than 15 billion by 2025.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40Coral which comes into contact with plastic is far more likely

0:13:40 > 0:13:48to develop diseases than other sealife.

0:13:53 > 0:13:59Donald Trump is making a visit to Davos. It is a talking shop for many

0:13:59 > 0:14:03famous people. But one famous guest let his feet do the talking in Davos

0:14:03 > 0:14:12yesterday. Justin Trudeau! He became a social media sensation with his

0:14:12 > 0:14:17pair of duck socks.The Canadian Prime Minister has fancy footwork

0:14:17 > 0:14:24form, as it were.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26The Canadian Prime Minister has fancy footwear form,

0:14:26 > 0:14:28moose, maple leaves and rainbows have featured in the past.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31This Chewbacca pair were chosen when he met

0:14:31 > 0:14:32International Monetary Fund CEO, Christine Lagarde.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35The sock star has worn science fiction underwear before.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38To celebrate May the 4th, or Star Wars Day, the PM pulled

0:14:38 > 0:14:44on a mismatched pair of R2-D2 and C-3PO socks.

0:14:44 > 0:14:53That is daring.

0:14:53 > 0:14:58My socks are very boring today. Dark blue.

0:14:58 > 0:15:03You've let the side down. Had we had warning...

0:15:03 > 0:15:06What is your most unusual pair in your drawl?

0:15:06 > 0:15:16I'm not a big one for novelty socks. There's the whole argument.

0:15:16 > 0:15:24It is great fun. Why not? Anyway, in the cricket, how

0:15:24 > 0:15:28often have we seen this in the past? You've won the tournament and you

0:15:28 > 0:15:34take your foot off the gas. England had won the one-day series against

0:15:34 > 0:15:39Australia 3-0, but today they've had one of their worst start ever. Maybe

0:15:39 > 0:15:48we just took our foot off the gas.

0:15:49 > 0:15:55There'll be no Kyle Edmund in the Australian Open final,

0:15:55 > 0:16:02-- they have somewhat recovered, but are still in big trouble. There will

0:16:02 > 0:16:10be no Kyle Edmund in the Australian Open final. Can Hyeon Chung beat

0:16:10 > 0:16:19Roger Federer in the second semi-final?

0:16:19 > 0:16:22Jose Mourinho takes his all-star Manchester United side,

0:16:22 > 0:16:26to Yeovil Town, in the FA Cup fourth round this evening.

0:16:26 > 0:16:33Yeovil are 21st in League Two, English football's fourth tier.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37And there are more injury worries for Wales, ahead of the Six Nations.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40Scrum Half Rhys Webb is now out of the tournament

0:16:40 > 0:16:41with a knee injury.

0:16:41 > 0:16:47Thank you.

0:16:47 > 0:16:53Will the ground be good to soft? I'm not sure she will know about that,

0:16:53 > 0:16:56but Sarah can tell us about the weather.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58but Sarah can tell us about the weather.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02The ground is pretty soggy and it been has unsettled and wet recently,

0:17:02 > 0:17:06but today it is looking like quite a decent day. This was yesterday in

0:17:06 > 0:17:10Derbyshire and we have similar things today. Blue sky and sunshine

0:17:10 > 0:17:14developing. A couple of showers around this morning, but this ridge

0:17:14 > 0:17:18of high pressure is sitting across the country and that's going to

0:17:18 > 0:17:20bring us some relatively dry and settled weather. Through this

0:17:20 > 0:17:25morning it's a chilly start. Scotland and Northern Ireland,

0:17:25 > 0:17:30temperatures below freezing and a few mist and fog patches. Couple of

0:17:30 > 0:17:33showers pushing into East Yorkshire, a few down towards Lincolnshire, but

0:17:33 > 0:17:37a lot of dry weather heading south on the England and Wales. We could

0:17:37 > 0:17:42catch a couple of passing showers for parts of Cornwall, Devon and

0:17:42 > 0:17:46Kent and Sussex, where is further remade it's a dry start. There

0:17:46 > 0:17:50amount of cloud around in central parts of England and a few misty and

0:17:50 > 0:17:55foggy patches. The cloud breaks up and then many of us see a decent

0:17:55 > 0:18:00day. Light winds and lots of dry weather and plenty of sunshine for

0:18:00 > 0:18:04this afternoon. Temperatures fairly typical for the time of year. 4-

0:18:04 > 0:18:11nine degrees. That should feel pleasant and sunshine. A hint of

0:18:11 > 0:18:14things changing as rain arrives initially in Northern Ireland and

0:18:14 > 0:18:20into the west of Scotland. The rain fizzles out for a time and then the

0:18:20 > 0:18:24next batch of wet weather moves on from the west and winds big up as

0:18:24 > 0:18:29well. Central and south-eastern part stay with this clear skies and there

0:18:29 > 0:18:36we could see mist and fog preforming through the night. This low pressure

0:18:36 > 0:18:40is towards the north of the UK. The trailing weather front will bring

0:18:40 > 0:18:43wet and windy weather, especially windy the northern Scotland. The

0:18:43 > 0:18:47Northern Isles could see severe gales and then this rain track

0:18:47 > 0:18:51slowly eastwards across the country through the day on Saturday,

0:18:51 > 0:18:53arriving in the south-east of England, East Anglia through the

0:18:53 > 0:18:57middle of the day. That's followed by brighter skies from the

0:18:57 > 0:19:00north-west, with sunny spells and a couple of showers. Generally

0:19:00 > 0:19:07temperatures are in double figures. Most of us about 10- 12 degrees. The

0:19:07 > 0:19:14mild air on Saturday stays around at the weekend. For Sunday, some rain

0:19:14 > 0:19:22across Scotland. Further south and east, a lot of dry and mild weather.

0:19:22 > 0:19:27Temperatures 13- 14 degrees.

0:19:27 > 0:19:32Let's take a look at today's papers.

0:19:32 > 0:19:38The Times. Many focusing on this

0:19:38 > 0:19:40The Times. Many focusing on this image of the press conference of

0:19:40 > 0:19:45sorts, with Donald Trump at Davos. Donald Trump very much centre stage

0:19:45 > 0:19:48today. He has been talking to the press overnight and we will reflect

0:19:48 > 0:19:52on some of the interviews he has been doing throughout this morning.

0:19:52 > 0:19:57Another thing picked up from Davos, comments about Brexit. The Guardian

0:19:57 > 0:20:01has a look at Theresa May's leadership, saying it is under

0:20:01 > 0:20:06threat, as a fresh Tory revolt erupts. Apparently she has bowed to

0:20:06 > 0:20:12pressure and disowned remarks by the Chancellor last night, trying to

0:20:12 > 0:20:19cause a new Brexit revolt. Bill -- Philip Hammond said they would only

0:20:19 > 0:20:22seek modest changes in its relationship with the EU, which she

0:20:22 > 0:20:28has countered. The Daily Mirror. And extraordinary

0:20:28 > 0:20:35scenes in the House of Lords yesterday. A woman made a speech and

0:20:35 > 0:20:38a great deal of emotion. Observer saying they've never seen anything

0:20:38 > 0:20:42quite like it in the chamber. She was talking about her own cancer

0:20:42 > 0:20:45diagnosis. We will reflect on that later. She

0:20:45 > 0:20:50got a standing ovation. A very emotional speech. The Daily Mail,

0:20:50 > 0:20:54taking a look at some meat from a supplier. The centre of a

0:20:54 > 0:20:59health-care scandal. Served at several restaurant chains for 12

0:20:59 > 0:21:04days before the public was warned. Various outlets have been recalling

0:21:04 > 0:21:08this meet. The standards agency found problems at a wholesaler which

0:21:08 > 0:21:15supplies at least nine major chains, including Jamie Oliver was a

0:21:15 > 0:21:17restaurant. You might think this is an alarming

0:21:17 > 0:21:26headline. The new signing of Alexis Sanchez. A drugs storm. It appears

0:21:26 > 0:21:33the drugs test result on Monday was false, as he was elsewhere. So he

0:21:33 > 0:21:37fell foul of the whereabouts rule, rather than any sort of real... In

0:21:37 > 0:21:42athletics the consequences of that ruling can be very severe?

0:21:42 > 0:21:48I think there's a perfectly reasonable explanation. He was

0:21:48 > 0:21:51signing for Manchester United and that can be explained. An alarming

0:21:51 > 0:22:00headline if you take the face of it. Can you spot the difference? Two

0:22:00 > 0:22:04horses. The jockeys are different, the numbers are different...

0:22:04 > 0:22:07They are going in different directions!

0:22:07 > 0:22:09Apart from that, what the difference?

0:22:09 > 0:22:12Why do we need to spot the difference?

0:22:12 > 0:22:19Yesterday, punters put some money on 12 to one on a horse called African

0:22:19 > 0:22:23Trader and it came third, so punters were being paid out, then it turned

0:22:23 > 0:22:35out it was a different horse. African Trader ran later. So a case

0:22:35 > 0:22:44of the wrong horse entering the wrong race. During the last year

0:22:44 > 0:22:48when it turned out it was a different horse, trained by the same

0:22:48 > 0:22:53trainer? They are microchipped, so they will wonder how this happened.

0:22:53 > 0:22:58In terms of spot the difference, I notice you and I are almost

0:22:58 > 0:23:03identically dressed. You got the call last night?

0:23:03 > 0:23:08It happens from time to time. You both look very dapper.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12The family of a 13-year-old who was shot in the neck

0:23:12 > 0:23:15after handling an air rifle want to see tighter controls around

0:23:15 > 0:23:19the type of guns that killed their son.

0:23:19 > 0:23:20Ben Wragge died in 2016.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23His family want changes in the way the public perceive air rifles.

0:23:23 > 0:23:28Graham Satchell reports.

0:23:28 > 0:23:37He was a lovely lad.Very, very kindhearted. His grandson died in a

0:23:37 > 0:23:41tragic accident.He was playing with some friends at a friend's house.

0:23:41 > 0:23:48They got hold of an air rifle. He ran off. Just a terrible tragedy.

0:23:48 > 0:23:53Ben Wragge was just 13 when he died. The airgun belonged to his friend's

0:23:53 > 0:24:01dad.They seem to be treated as a wheeze toys, but it proves they are

0:24:01 > 0:24:06weapons and they need treating and looking after as such -- boy's toys.

0:24:06 > 0:24:13This is a shooting school in north Wales. This is an instructor and the

0:24:13 > 0:24:16death of Ben Wragge has prompted a review of the rules on England and

0:24:16 > 0:24:20Wales. You think this is a dangerous weapon?I don't think it's a

0:24:20 > 0:24:24dangerous weapon in the right hands. Anything in the wrong hands or

0:24:24 > 0:24:28ill-advised towns could be dangerous, just as a knife could be

0:24:28 > 0:24:32dangerous in the wrong hands.In a shop next door, air guns for sale.

0:24:32 > 0:24:37The rules? You have to be over 18 to buy one. There are restrictions on

0:24:37 > 0:24:41where you can use them and it is an offence to let children five and

0:24:41 > 0:24:45without supervision.I think the law we has works already and I don't

0:24:45 > 0:24:49think we need any more. We need to enforce the law we have and we need

0:24:49 > 0:24:53to get education for young people and I think that's absolutely

0:24:53 > 0:24:56critical.Hundreds and hundreds of air rifles. This is Scotland, where

0:24:56 > 0:25:01after another tragic death the law changed last year. You now need a

0:25:01 > 0:25:06licence to buy or own one and it needed keep them under lock and key.

0:25:06 > 0:25:1020,000 air guns were handed in and destroyed in Scotland. Around 15,000

0:25:10 > 0:25:16were licensed in the first six months.That is held in by the

0:25:16 > 0:25:21trigger.Riddick said the new rules in Scotland penalised the

0:25:21 > 0:25:24law-abiding majority and a disproportionate, especially as

0:25:24 > 0:25:28offences involving air rifles have been falling for more than a decade.

0:25:28 > 0:25:32In modern society, there are many things that are potentially

0:25:32 > 0:25:36dangerous and if we went down the path of stopping something because

0:25:36 > 0:25:39one person might have died, I don't think we would achieve anything.

0:25:39 > 0:25:47There are so many other...Really? Yes.That's a tough thing to say. I

0:25:47 > 0:25:51think a lot of people would say it is worth it if we save one life.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55Well, you have to look at proportionality and merely doing

0:25:55 > 0:26:00that doesn't actually achieve that proportionality.It can't be a

0:26:00 > 0:26:05disproportionate response. We are trying to stop this happening to any

0:26:05 > 0:26:09other families. It doesn't matter how bureaucratic it is, if it saves

0:26:09 > 0:26:14a life, it saves a life.And there's the heart of this debate. Is it

0:26:14 > 0:26:19worth introducing new rules that need be burdensome for gun owners if

0:26:19 > 0:26:23it saves one life? It is for the government in Westminster to decide.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28Still to come this morning: Ben is at the Triumph motorcycle factory

0:26:28 > 0:26:36looking at the success of British manufacturing in the last 12 months.

0:26:36 > 0:26:41Good morning. Good morning. Welcome to the

0:26:41 > 0:26:48factory, where they make Triumphal motorcycles. This production line

0:26:48 > 0:26:53does not stop. They make 25 of these every hour. A lot of them are

0:26:53 > 0:26:59exported overseas. The fall in the value of the pound has been good

0:26:59 > 0:27:04news for exporters, so how is the rest of the economy? We will find

0:27:04 > 0:27:08out from the official figures later and talk more about that over the

0:27:08 > 0:27:09course of the morning.

0:27:09 > 0:30:32Time now for the news, travel and weather where you are.

0:30:32 > 0:30:33in half an hour.

0:30:33 > 0:30:35Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

0:30:35 > 0:30:37Now, though, it's back to Charlie and Naga.

0:30:37 > 0:30:38Bye for now.

0:30:44 > 0:30:45Hello.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47This is Breakfast, with Naga and Charlie.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49We'll have the headlines in just a moment.

0:30:49 > 0:30:50Coming up on Breakfast today.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52It's the biggest wildlife survey in the world,

0:30:52 > 0:30:55and as the RSPB's Big Garden Watch gets under way tomorrow,

0:30:55 > 0:31:01we'll join a family taking part.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03After Baroness Jowell's powerful testimony about suffering from brain

0:31:03 > 0:31:06cancer yesterday, Lord Adonis will reflect on the emotional

0:31:06 > 0:31:14atmosphere at the Westminster.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20And it's nearly 20 years since Craig David burst

0:31:20 > 0:31:21onto the charts.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24After a few years away, he's got a brand new album.

0:31:24 > 0:31:28He'll be here just after 8:30.

0:31:28 > 0:31:29All that is still to come.

0:31:29 > 0:31:35But now a summary of this morning's main news.

0:31:35 > 0:31:40Donald Trump's visit to the UK is back on the agenda, Downing Street

0:31:40 > 0:31:45has confirmed.It is expected to be a working visit in the second half

0:31:45 > 0:31:51of the year, without the pomp and ceremony of a full state visit. The

0:31:51 > 0:31:54announcement came at the end of a meeting between him and the Prime

0:31:54 > 0:32:00Minister at Davos. He said they like to do a lot.He would give his

0:32:00 > 0:32:08keynote speech in Davos later this week. He will likely talk about his

0:32:08 > 0:32:17commitment to America first.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20I don't think in terms of elitists, globalists,

0:32:20 > 0:32:23I thought many people that want to invest lots of money.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25They are coming back to the United States,

0:32:25 > 0:32:28they are coming back to America to be I thought of it

0:32:28 > 0:32:29in those terms.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32After I said I was going, there were many stories

0:32:32 > 0:32:34about the elite and the globalists and the planes flying

0:32:34 > 0:32:35in and everything

0:32:35 > 0:32:36else.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38It is not about that, it is about investing money,

0:32:38 > 0:32:40jobs coming in, creating jobs.

0:32:40 > 0:32:43We are setting records every week, every day, we are setting records.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Downing Street has rejected a suggestion from the Chancellor,

0:32:46 > 0:32:53Philip Hammond, that any change to the UK's relationship with the EU

0:32:53 > 0:32:58would be modest. Number 10 responded they want a deep and special

0:32:58 > 0:33:02economic partnership with the EU after leaving but it could not be

0:33:02 > 0:33:07described as very modest.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Sore throats should be treated with paracetamol rather

0:33:09 > 0:33:11than antibiotics, according to new guidance from

0:33:11 > 0:33:12the NHS medicines watchdog.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence,

0:33:14 > 0:33:17or NICE, says the drugs are prescribed in 60% of cases,

0:33:17 > 0:33:18despite being mostly ineffective.

0:33:18 > 0:33:24Doctors say the condition usually clears up within a week.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27Several of the BBC's leading male news presenters and journalists have

0:33:27 > 0:33:29agreed to take salary cuts, following revelations about gender

0:33:29 > 0:33:31pay inequality at the corporation.

0:33:31 > 0:33:39An independent report on the issue is due to be published next week.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45More than 40 people have died after a fire at a hospital in South

0:33:45 > 0:33:46Korea.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48It was thought to have started in the emergency room

0:33:48 > 0:33:51of the building in the city of Milyang in the south-east

0:33:51 > 0:33:52of the country.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55Around 100 patients were inside at the time.

0:33:55 > 0:33:57The Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson has said Russia

0:33:57 > 0:33:59is drawing up plans to cause "thousands and thousands

0:33:59 > 0:34:02and thousands of deaths" in Britain by crippling vital infrastructure.

0:34:02 > 0:34:05In an interview with The Daily Telegraph he says Moscow

0:34:05 > 0:34:07is spying on the UK's energy network in an attempt

0:34:07 > 0:34:15to spot vulnerabilities.

0:34:18 > 0:34:19Businesses including Jamie Oliver's Italian restaurants,

0:34:19 > 0:34:22Hilton Hotels, and the shopping channel, QVC, have all stopped

0:34:22 > 0:34:25selling some steak products after the company that supplied them

0:34:25 > 0:34:27was placed under investigation by the Food Standards Agency.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30Russel Hume, who also supply meat to the Wetherspoon's pub chain,

0:34:30 > 0:34:33said there has never been any suggestion that their products

0:34:33 > 0:34:36caused illness and that the recall was a "precautionary measure

0:34:36 > 0:34:37because of mislabelling."

0:34:37 > 0:34:41Plastic is one of the biggest threats to the future of coral reefs

0:34:41 > 0:34:42followed by increasing ocean temperatures,

0:34:42 > 0:34:43scientists are warning.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46More than 11 billion items of plastic were found on a third

0:34:46 > 0:34:49of coral reefs in the Asia-Pacific region, and this figure is predicted

0:34:49 > 0:34:52to increase to more than 15 billion by 2025.

0:34:52 > 0:34:55Coral which comes into contact with plastic is far more likely

0:34:55 > 0:35:03to develop diseases than other sealife.

0:35:11 > 0:35:14There's been a rise in the number of cars needing to be repaired

0:35:14 > 0:35:17because of damage sustained while driving over potholes.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20The RAC says the increasing number of potholes on our roads

0:35:20 > 0:35:22are due to bad weather and a lack of investment.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24The government says £23 billion is being invested

0:35:24 > 0:35:29in increasing road capacity and improving journeys.

0:35:29 > 0:35:33Now, a rare white lion cub is making its first appearance at a zoo in

0:35:33 > 0:35:41Mexico. It

0:35:41 > 0:35:44Mexico. It looks like a star in the making. Definitely not shy. Very

0:35:44 > 0:35:47curious, very cute. It was born in October and apparently rejected I

0:35:47 > 0:35:59its mother. It is now being hand-reared. The public has been

0:35:59 > 0:36:12asked for name suggestions, that'll be interesting.What a dream

0:36:12 > 0:36:15be interesting.What a dream job to hand rear that little cub, for a few

0:36:15 > 0:36:21months at least, until it gets big. What will we start with?It has been

0:36:21 > 0:36:26extraordinary in the cricket. England won the series, 3-0. That

0:36:26 > 0:36:34explains why things went pear shaped in this match. They suffered one of

0:36:34 > 0:36:37their worst ever start in history. In Adelaide this morning they lost

0:36:37 > 0:36:43the first five wickets for just eight runs, you heard correctly.

0:36:43 > 0:36:48There was a

0:36:48 > 0:36:51There was a succession of batsmen walking on and off. They were

0:36:51 > 0:36:57heading for their worst ever score, but Chris Woakes brought them back

0:36:57 > 0:37:03with a huge 78.

0:37:03 > 0:37:10with a huge 78. 192-9 is the lastest score. Kyle Edmund, it wasn't to be.

0:37:10 > 0:37:17Had a bit of an injury. But he is in the top 30.

0:37:17 > 0:37:22He was only the sixth man from Britain to reach this phase of the

0:37:22 > 0:37:31Grand Slam. He posted this on Instagram last night.

0:37:31 > 0:37:32He thanked the Australian Open,

0:37:32 > 0:37:34saying "What an amazing couple weeks it's been."

0:37:34 > 0:37:38"Sorry I didn't get the win today, but thank you for all the support,

0:37:38 > 0:37:40it meant the world to me."

0:37:40 > 0:37:42So, gone, but not forgotten.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45There's not long to go before the start of the second men's

0:37:45 > 0:37:46semi-final at the Aussie Open.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49South Korea's Hyeon Chung, has already beaten Novak Djokovic in

0:37:49 > 0:37:49Melbourne.

0:37:49 > 0:37:52No Korean player has been further in a Grand Slam,

0:37:52 > 0:37:56but now, the world number 58 has got to get past 19-time Grand Slam

0:37:56 > 0:37:58champion Roger Federer, who's still to drop a set

0:37:58 > 0:38:00in the tournament.

0:38:00 > 0:38:12How about this? Yeovil, 21st, taking on Manchester United. The fourth

0:38:12 > 0:38:16round of the FA Cup. They have a new star with Alexis Sanchez making his

0:38:16 > 0:38:37debut. He received a friendly greeting from Yeovil. In a Tweet,

0:38:37 > 0:38:41they gave him a sneak preview of the away dressing room. They said it was

0:38:41 > 0:38:45the biggest. Looks a bit empty. A glimmer of what he will have to get

0:38:45 > 0:38:45used to.

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Well, back to the current Yeovil team, and their manager,

0:38:48 > 0:38:50Darren Way, has faced tougher challenges than Manchester United.

0:38:50 > 0:38:54Nine years ago he was in a car crash, which meant he couldn't walk

0:38:54 > 0:38:55for a year.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57He's had 29 operations since, and has been speaking

0:38:57 > 0:38:59to Football Focus' Mark Clemmit.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03At that stage, it was life or death. I know what that feels like. It has

0:39:03 > 0:39:06probably helped me deal with football management. It has made me

0:39:06 > 0:39:09more resilient, more determined. I wake up with the willpower to

0:39:09 > 0:39:13succeed.Did you think you were going to die?Yes. A scary feeling,

0:39:13 > 0:39:21that's for sure. I am very appreciative of what Manchester

0:39:21 > 0:39:30United did for me. Now I am manager. Against all odds, to get into this

0:39:30 > 0:39:34position, it is what dreams are made of.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36What an extraordinary story.

0:39:36 > 0:39:39You can see more of that interview ahead of the game,

0:39:39 > 0:39:41which is on BBC One this evening.

0:39:41 > 0:39:42Coverage starts at 7:30.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45He puts it all into perspective. Tomorrow, the feature on Saturday

0:39:45 > 0:39:50morning is

0:39:50 > 0:39:52morning is about some skiiers who have been through horrendous

0:39:52 > 0:39:59injuries but have gone back to the snow in sit-skiing. You only use

0:39:59 > 0:40:06your head.I am learning to snowboard and I find that hard

0:40:06 > 0:40:12enough with all four limbs!

0:40:12 > 0:40:14The controversy surrounding the Presidents Club fundraiser

0:40:14 > 0:40:17continues to have repercussions for all who attended it earlier this

0:40:17 > 0:40:19week, including the charity sector, businessmen and politicians.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21130 female hostesses worked at the men-only event,

0:40:21 > 0:40:23and some have come forward allegeding sexually harassment.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26The treatment of hospitality staff and the culture and mentality

0:40:26 > 0:40:28of clients attending these events has raised serious questions

0:40:28 > 0:40:30about appropriate conduct and behaviour.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Nilufer Guler wasn't working at the Dorchester Hotel event,

0:40:32 > 0:40:40but has worked in the hospitality industry for almost a decade.

0:40:46 > 0:40:54Good morning.Good morning.You were not working at the Presidents Club.

0:40:54 > 0:41:00The events you have attended have been similar. What are some of the

0:41:00 > 0:41:04things that have happened to you in the past?Umm, I will not really go

0:41:04 > 0:41:08into some of the details of sexual harassment, just that it has

0:41:08 > 0:41:15happened a lot. It happens all the time in hospitality. It happens to a

0:41:15 > 0:41:18lot of my colleagues.Can you give us a sense without going into

0:41:18 > 0:41:23details?Well, it is just things like inappropriate touching,

0:41:23 > 0:41:31advances, sexual advances, you know, real, you know, pushing... You know,

0:41:31 > 0:41:39sexual advances and inappropriate touching.Propositions?Yes. You are

0:41:39 > 0:41:47propositioned. It is a fairly normalised thing.What happens, you

0:41:47 > 0:41:53are employed, you do a job, you complain to an agency. You expect

0:41:53 > 0:42:00them to forward it on. Have you had any feeling it has been dealt with?

0:42:00 > 0:42:07There is a lack of accountability. I have had situations with a lot of my

0:42:07 > 0:42:11colleagues complaining. Nothing has happened because there is no real...

0:42:11 > 0:42:15There is no real democracy in the hospitality industry. There is no

0:42:15 > 0:42:19union president, there is no process which you can take. It is dominated

0:42:19 > 0:42:29by zero-hour contracts. That means if you do not want to appear like a

0:42:29 > 0:42:34troublemaker, you have to shut up otherwise you will not get the work.

0:42:34 > 0:42:38With this particular event, people were shocked. They were shocked at

0:42:38 > 0:42:44some of the contracts the women working there were forced to sign,

0:42:44 > 0:42:49like nondisclosure, about what they had to wear. Had he been required to

0:42:49 > 0:42:59agree to anything along those lines ahead of events?

0:42:59 > 0:43:03ahead of events? -- Have you been.I have not been required to agree. But

0:43:03 > 0:43:08there is a culture of being made to appear in a certain way, to behave

0:43:08 > 0:43:16in a certain way, towards guests, you know...You must have been given

0:43:16 > 0:43:20descriptions, some guidance.They told me to dress like I am on my

0:43:20 > 0:43:25first date. These kinds of things. During my training, I did not have

0:43:25 > 0:43:31to sign anything. But I am not surprised people do. Yeah, it is a

0:43:31 > 0:43:35common being. It is just one thing of many, many, many, many issues in

0:43:35 > 0:43:40hospitality. Part in parcel of a whole range of, you know, unpaid

0:43:40 > 0:43:50work, unpaid hours, long hours... Why did you stick with the industry?

0:43:50 > 0:43:54If there was a... I do not think there is actually a choice on the

0:43:54 > 0:43:59matter, you know? It is very, very low-paid, and it is a tough

0:43:59 > 0:44:03industry. There is a lot of bullying, a lot of standing on your

0:44:03 > 0:44:08feet for many hours wearing uncomfortable clothes. Just taking

0:44:08 > 0:44:11and taking and taking, like, this kind of treatment, from, you know,

0:44:11 > 0:44:17everywhere. It is not something you choose to stick with. It is... If

0:44:17 > 0:44:21you want to eat, I mean, if you can survive without eating, then fine.

0:44:21 > 0:44:25You know, it is not something people want.Do you think reports about

0:44:25 > 0:44:31this Presidents Club dinner could help the industry? Could it take a

0:44:31 > 0:44:34look at itself? Would give people like you working in the industry

0:44:34 > 0:44:41more confidence to not put up with it?I think so. It is a starting

0:44:41 > 0:44:46point. It is good it is closed, or at least is being stopped. I think

0:44:46 > 0:44:50we need a more... We need to do more. We need to actually start

0:44:50 > 0:44:56encouraging, especially young women, to join the union, to... And that is

0:44:56 > 0:45:01not to say unions are perfect either, you know? It is to say try

0:45:01 > 0:45:06and actually, collectively, and, you know, create some sense of democracy

0:45:06 > 0:45:12in the workplace. And, also, you know, to take it be beyond an

0:45:12 > 0:45:17individual issue. It is not not just about individual grievances. We need

0:45:17 > 0:45:26to actually even taken to the streets, you know?

0:45:26 > 0:45:31streets, you know? It is so widespread.Thank you very much.

0:45:31 > 0:45:37Good morning. Time to take a look at the weather. And the temperatures

0:45:37 > 0:45:42might creep up. That's a glorious picture. Not one we have been used

0:45:42 > 0:45:42to,

0:45:42 > 0:45:43picture. Not one we have been used to, although yesterday was quite

0:45:43 > 0:45:47sunny. We had glimpses of sunshine

0:45:47 > 0:45:52yesterday and fairly similar today. This was yesterday in Derbyshire and

0:45:52 > 0:45:55quite widespread sunshine on a forecast across many parts of the

0:45:55 > 0:46:00UK. That's down to the fact that we have high pressure in charge. This

0:46:00 > 0:46:04high pressure creeping in before the next weather front arrives from the

0:46:04 > 0:46:08Atlantic through the weekend. With that high pressure and light winds

0:46:08 > 0:46:12it is quite a chilly start. For Scotland and Northern Ireland some

0:46:12 > 0:46:16frost around and a few mist and fog patches. Most places dry across

0:46:16 > 0:46:21England and Wales, but a few showers on the coast. We can cheer,

0:46:21 > 0:46:24Yorkshire, down through Pembrokeshire and Cornwall, a few

0:46:24 > 0:46:30showers. Further inland dry start. A bit of patchy cloud, which should

0:46:30 > 0:46:35thin and break later. We could catch a coastal shower in Kent and Sussex,

0:46:35 > 0:46:41but they will ease. Things becoming dry over the next few hours. The

0:46:41 > 0:46:46cloud breaking up. Lots of sunshine today. With light winds it will feel

0:46:46 > 0:46:47pretty pleasant.

0:46:51 > 0:46:55About 4- nine degrees in the afternoon. Then things start to

0:46:55 > 0:46:58change later in the afternoon, with the next area of rain initially

0:46:58 > 0:47:01arriving in Northern Ireland and western Scotland, with the wind

0:47:01 > 0:47:06begin up. That does tend to fizzle but later in the night or persistent

0:47:06 > 0:47:11rain heads in from the west. By the early hours of Saturday it is really

0:47:11 > 0:47:14the north-western half of the UK that sees the cloud, rain and brisk

0:47:14 > 0:47:18winds. Further south and east are colder start to Saturday, with mist

0:47:18 > 0:47:23and a little bit of frost as well. So through Saturday it is dominated

0:47:23 > 0:47:29by this low pressure. A lot of isobars to the north of the UK.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32Windy weather. Especially windy in the Northern Isles and northern

0:47:32 > 0:47:39parts of mainland Scotland. Gales or severe gales. Further south, breezy,

0:47:39 > 0:47:42with this rain moving slowly eastwards. Becoming fairly light and

0:47:42 > 0:47:46patchy by the time it arrives in the south-east later and it will be

0:47:46 > 0:47:50followed by brighter skies heading in from the north and west. With

0:47:50 > 0:47:53that mix of sunshine and blustery showers we are all in double figures

0:47:53 > 0:47:58on Saturday. We've already got the mild air and heading into the second

0:47:58 > 0:48:01half of the weekend even milder air starts to head in from the

0:48:01 > 0:48:07south-west. That sets us up for a fairly decent day. It will be mild.

0:48:07 > 0:48:11A bit more rain, especially in parts of Scotland and maybe Northern

0:48:11 > 0:48:14Ireland and western parts of England and Wales. Further south and east we

0:48:14 > 0:48:17are more likely to avoid wet weather. Remaining dry through the

0:48:17 > 0:48:22weekend. There will be a little bit of rain on the cards and it will be

0:48:22 > 0:48:26feeling quite blustery. Most of us should see a little bit of dry and

0:48:26 > 0:48:26decent

0:48:26 > 0:48:28should see a little bit of dry and decent weather through the weekend.

0:48:28 > 0:48:31Thanks very much, Sarah.

0:48:31 > 0:48:34Later this morning we'll get the official figures on how well

0:48:34 > 0:48:36the economy performed last year.

0:48:36 > 0:48:37Ben is at a motorcycle factory in Leicestershire.

0:48:40 > 0:48:44We always love having a look around factories. At a motorcycle factory

0:48:44 > 0:48:49today. Do you get to ride on one?

0:48:49 > 0:48:55Maybe if I am good, a little later. No promises. This is definitely a

0:48:55 > 0:49:01work in progress. They are building we Triumph motorcycles here. They

0:49:01 > 0:49:10build about 25 every hour. Last year was good news. A weak pound meant

0:49:10 > 0:49:17there was some good news. First, the good news with the economy was that

0:49:17 > 0:49:20the weak pound has meant for many factories it is better to export and

0:49:20 > 0:49:24manufacturing has done really well. There's also been a bit more money

0:49:24 > 0:49:28in our pocket. Unemployment has fallen to new record lows. The bad

0:49:28 > 0:49:34news is inflation. The rising cost of everything we buy. That's been

0:49:34 > 0:49:39going up pretty sharply. That means we've felt a bit of a squeeze on our

0:49:39 > 0:49:43income. One of the things that has missed out has been retail. Retail

0:49:43 > 0:49:48sales have fallen sharply. For manufacturers the economy has been

0:49:48 > 0:49:52faring well. It's an interesting one in terms of exports. But introduce

0:49:52 > 0:49:59you to Paul, one of the bosses here. Good morning to you both. Explain

0:49:59 > 0:50:05how you fared this year.It has been a pretty good year? Overall we've

0:50:05 > 0:50:11had a reasonable year. In the last 12 months the sales were up by 13%.

0:50:11 > 0:50:17We had a record number of motorcycle sales around the world. In addition

0:50:17 > 0:50:21to that we've launched five new motorcycles and you are standing in

0:50:21 > 0:50:26front of the new motorcycles, and we've had many other successes in

0:50:26 > 0:50:30the business. This year we signed a contract where our motorcycles will

0:50:30 > 0:50:34be the official engine supplier for championships around the world, so

0:50:34 > 0:50:40it has been a good year for Triumph. The weak pound has meant these

0:50:40 > 0:50:44things are cheaper, if you sell them overseas. That is added a boost and

0:50:44 > 0:50:49that means you can take on more staff?The retail pricing around the

0:50:49 > 0:50:51world is consistent and isn't affected by the strength or weakness

0:50:51 > 0:50:57of the pound. Effectively 85% of our motorcycles are exported.

0:50:57 > 0:51:02Essentially, basically, what you see with the weak pound is we have

0:51:02 > 0:51:06benefits, but we also have the flipside, were basically we have

0:51:06 > 0:51:12oversee the operations that cost us more to run and also essentially the

0:51:12 > 0:51:17motorcycles in those are well-positioned.Professor, it is

0:51:17 > 0:51:22interesting because there is some good news and some bad news. For

0:51:22 > 0:51:26manufacturers it has been great, but the danger of course is that if you

0:51:26 > 0:51:30are importing from overseas postings cost more as well?Yes. If you look

0:51:30 > 0:51:34at the recent data about the economy, overall it is encouraging,

0:51:34 > 0:51:40but we should still be vigilant. Thank goodness politically we have

0:51:40 > 0:51:47some kind of agreement about our divorce Bill. So some uncertainty

0:51:47 > 0:51:51about wrecks it has been cleared away, which helps investors bring

0:51:51 > 0:51:58back the confidence in the economy -- Brexit. On the other hand it is

0:51:58 > 0:52:00giving exports some additional competitiveness, an advantage, in

0:52:00 > 0:52:06the global market. We have more competitiveness in the market which

0:52:06 > 0:52:11is good for us, but we should also be vigilant about the negative side,

0:52:11 > 0:52:18because first of all it makes we have less money in our pockets,

0:52:18 > 0:52:23consumers have less money around to buy goods, so we are in the worst

0:52:23 > 0:52:29situation compared to before Brexit. Our pay rises can't keep up with

0:52:29 > 0:52:35inflation, so we have less money left to buy real goods and on the

0:52:35 > 0:52:39other hand inflation is coming up, so it will make us more expensive to

0:52:39 > 0:52:44buy foreign goods.For now, thank you to both of you. We will chat

0:52:44 > 0:52:48later. I will show you more around this place, got it is fascinating.

0:52:48 > 0:52:53As I said they build about 25 every hour. The goods come in as raw

0:52:53 > 0:52:58materials, screws and alts, all sorts of things, and then get

0:52:58 > 0:53:00shipped out as brand-new bikes in a box.

0:53:00 > 0:53:08I will show you more later. Thanks very much! Now to a theatre with a

0:53:08 > 0:53:15difference, one curated by people with dementia.

0:53:18 > 0:53:21It's called Every Third Minute, as that's when someone in the UK

0:53:21 > 0:53:22is diagnosed with dementia.

0:53:22 > 0:53:24The festival is called 'Every Third Minute'.

0:53:24 > 0:53:26Our Entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson has been along

0:53:26 > 0:53:28to rehearsals.

0:53:28 > 0:53:31A brand-new play cowritten by someone who has been living with

0:53:31 > 0:53:35dementia for eight years.It's important to me to my brain ticking

0:53:35 > 0:53:39over.The no different things. Bob Fulcher was picked to work with

0:53:39 > 0:53:49professional playwright for the Every Third Minute festival. They've

0:53:49 > 0:53:55created I See Land Ahead, a nautical tale based on one of his paintings.

0:53:55 > 0:54:01Bob, you were a farmer for more than 40 years. You are now 70 and now you

0:54:01 > 0:54:06are a about to have a play on.How does that feel? Being part of this

0:54:06 > 0:54:10festival has given me a chance to put my message across about how

0:54:10 > 0:54:16important it is to enjoy life, even though I've had dementia for eight

0:54:16 > 0:54:22years. Life is great.But the festival will also be incorporating

0:54:22 > 0:54:26some more famous work on the subject.I have Alzheimer's disease.

0:54:26 > 0:54:34Early onset.Three years ago, Julianne Moore won the best actress

0:54:34 > 0:54:38Oscar for Still Alice.Try pretending you are me when you walk.

0:54:38 > 0:54:42For the UK premiere of the stage version, that role will be played by

0:54:42 > 0:54:47Sharon small from the Inspector Lumley mysteries.I do feel the

0:54:47 > 0:54:52pressure, but we are telling the story in a slightly different way,

0:54:52 > 0:55:03more theatrically.I'm going...Oh, yes, Stamford. Have fun.That will

0:55:03 > 0:55:07be my job on this one, to try to get people to see that people with

0:55:07 > 0:55:13dementia are still, although struggling, they are still trying to

0:55:13 > 0:55:17get on with life and they are still people. If I go further away I get

0:55:17 > 0:55:22lost, but I do make myself go out, because you've got to, haven't you?

0:55:22 > 0:55:27And in another rehearsal room, Rosa Peterson is listening to her play

0:55:27 > 0:55:31being read by actors for the very first time.I'm glad I've done it.

0:55:31 > 0:55:36It's an achievement. It just proves that if you've got dementia you can

0:55:36 > 0:55:41still do things, and I've done it. And I'm wondering if it will help if

0:55:41 > 0:55:46the man had a name.She was paired up with a brighter, and the play is

0:55:46 > 0:55:51based on memories from Rosa's childhood.We still got a few bits

0:55:51 > 0:55:55to alter.A few words to sort out. But pretty much better, I would say.

0:55:55 > 0:56:04That would be good!Yes, at the age of 75, it is Rosa the writer and she

0:56:04 > 0:56:06is loving it.

0:56:06 > 0:56:09The Every Third Minute Festival is on at the West Yorkshire Playhouse

0:56:09 > 0:59:32in Leeds from February the ninth.

0:59:32 > 0:59:35I'm back with the latest from the BBC London newsroom

1:01:04 > 1:01:10We hear from the family of a 13-year-old boy who was killed

1:01:10 > 1:01:12in an accident with one.

1:01:12 > 1:01:21Good morning. A weak pound has given exporters a boost, meaning they can

1:01:21 > 1:01:30sell more overseas. How is the rest of the economy?

1:01:30 > 1:01:33In sport, one of the worst starts ever for England's cricketers.

1:01:33 > 1:01:36They lost their first five wickets for just eight runs,

1:01:36 > 1:01:38against Australia in Adelaide in their latest

1:02:05 > 1:02:08Downing Street has said Donald Trump will once again

1:02:08 > 1:02:10confirm his commitment to put America first

1:02:10 > 1:02:15when he delivers his keynote speech in Davos later.

1:02:15 > 1:02:18Donald Trump says he's prepared to apologise for retweeting

1:02:18 > 1:02:26racist videos from a far-right British Group.

1:02:33 > 1:02:35I don't think in terms of elitists, globalists,

1:02:35 > 1:02:38I thought many people that want to invest lots of money.

1:02:38 > 1:02:41They are coming back to the United States,

1:02:41 > 1:02:44they are coming back to America to be I thought of it

1:02:44 > 1:02:45in those terms.

1:02:50 > 1:02:51in and everything

1:02:51 > 1:02:51else.

1:02:51 > 1:02:54It is not about that, it is about investing money,

1:02:54 > 1:02:55jobs coming in, creating jobs.

1:02:55 > 1:03:03We are setting records every week, every day, we are setting records.

1:03:07 > 1:03:11And you have been following the great and the good. This is a man

1:03:11 > 1:03:18who caused a stir. He is keen to express how well the economy is

1:03:18 > 1:03:24doing under him.

1:03:25 > 1:03:30doing under him.Quite a conciliatory tone from Donald Trump.

1:03:30 > 1:03:36He arrived yesterday. He had a big meeting with Theresa May. It seems

1:03:36 > 1:03:39they finally have an agreement, though we have been around the

1:03:39 > 1:03:43houses over the visit to the UK. The Prime Minister will be pleased with

1:03:43 > 1:03:50the warmer mood music from America. Donald Trump said it was a myth

1:03:50 > 1:03:55there was friction in their relationship. He has done an

1:03:55 > 1:04:01interview with Piers Morgan, which will run later today. He talks about

1:04:01 > 1:04:12some of the controversy,

1:04:13 > 1:04:14some of the controversy, the retweeting of Britain First, the

1:04:14 > 1:04:18far-right organisation. He said he read into it later and said he

1:04:18 > 1:04:28realised it was racist and said he was the least racist person ever. It

1:04:28 > 1:04:31seems he tweets first, worries later. He said the bigger point was

1:04:31 > 1:04:36fighting Islamic terror. This is about moving on, rebuild some of the

1:04:36 > 1:04:44special relationship. Theresa May, who left, she will be pleased the

1:04:44 > 1:04:49meeting went well. She had the longest amount of time with him. For

1:04:49 > 1:05:00Number 10, that must be seen as something good.That you so much.

1:05:01 > 1:05:03something good.That you so much. -- Thank you.

1:05:03 > 1:05:06There's dispute at the heart of the Government this morning,

1:05:06 > 1:05:09after Downing Street gave a public rebuke of comments made

1:05:09 > 1:05:12by the Chancellor Philip Hammond at the World Economic Forum in

1:05:12 > 1:05:12Switzerland.

1:05:12 > 1:05:15It comes as the Brexit Secretary, David Davis, prepares to set

1:05:15 > 1:05:18out his vision for the next stage of talks about a transition

1:05:18 > 1:05:19period later today.

1:05:19 > 1:05:22At a speech in Davos, Mr Hammond said he hoped the UK

1:05:22 > 1:05:25and EU economies will only move "very modestly" apart after Brexit.

1:05:25 > 1:05:28To which a Number 10 spokesperson has said that government plans

1:05:28 > 1:05:31for Brexit "could not be described as very modest changes."

1:05:31 > 1:05:33Let's talk about this more with our political correspondent,

1:05:33 > 1:05:36Leila Nathoo, who joins us now from Westminster.

1:05:36 > 1:05:41In one sense this is semantics. Modest, very modest, not modest, and

1:05:41 > 1:05:50on the other hand, differences in government thinking.It is right to

1:05:50 > 1:05:53say that. Periodically we see differences in opinion over Brexit.

1:05:53 > 1:06:02This is just another example. Philip Hammond, no secret he was on the

1:06:02 > 1:06:11remaining side of the argument. The comments made by him in Davos have

1:06:11 > 1:06:19raised the hackles of Brexiteers. He said we are leaving the single

1:06:19 > 1:06:23market and the customs union, but Brexiteers in the Tory party see

1:06:23 > 1:06:30this as an attempt to hijack Brexit. David Davis was talking about the

1:06:30 > 1:06:34transition period. At the same time, we got comments from the other side

1:06:34 > 1:06:38of the Tory party, Jacob Rees-Mogg, a prominent backbencher chairing a

1:06:38 > 1:06:45group of EU sceptics. He is critical of the government's approach to

1:06:45 > 1:06:49Brexit, talking about a fundamental shift in tone being needed, saying

1:06:49 > 1:06:54Britain was being powered by the EU, talking about squandering the

1:06:54 > 1:06:59opportunities presented to Brexit. -- cowed. You see an example of the

1:06:59 > 1:07:04divisions going on. The debate is still alive over the end state of

1:07:04 > 1:07:11Brexit, never mind the transition period. That is the immediate

1:07:11 > 1:07:15priority, get to the transition period as soon as possible before

1:07:15 > 1:07:20getting to negotiations over the final end state. There is still no

1:07:20 > 1:07:26consensus on that back home.Thank you for the moment.

1:07:26 > 1:07:28Most sore throats should be treated with paracetamol rather

1:07:28 > 1:07:30than antibiotics, according to new guidance from

1:07:30 > 1:07:31the NHS medicines watchdog.

1:07:31 > 1:07:34The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence,

1:07:34 > 1:07:36NICE, says the drugs are prescribed in 60% of cases,

1:07:36 > 1:07:37despite being mostly ineffective.

1:07:37 > 1:07:45Here's our health correspondent, Dominic Hughes.

1:07:47 > 1:07:49The overuse of antibiotics is leading to the development

1:07:49 > 1:07:51of bacteria resistant to these life-saving drugs.

1:07:51 > 1:07:53Leading health experts warn this poses a serious

1:07:53 > 1:07:55threat to the UK.

1:07:55 > 1:07:59If we lose the ability to fight infection,

1:07:59 > 1:08:01common medical procedures such as Cesarean sections and cancer

1:08:01 > 1:08:02treatments could become too risky.

1:08:02 > 1:08:05Prescribing antibiotics to treat a sore throat is a prime example

1:08:05 > 1:08:11of the way they can be misused.

1:08:11 > 1:08:14Sore throats account for nearly one in four of GP

1:08:14 > 1:08:15appointments in the UK related to infections

1:08:15 > 1:08:17of the lungs and airways.

1:08:17 > 1:08:19Research suggests that in 60% of those cases,

1:08:19 > 1:08:21antibiotics are prescribed.

1:08:21 > 1:08:27But most sore throats are caused by a viral infection,

1:08:27 > 1:08:31on which antibiotics will have no effect.

1:08:31 > 1:08:35We have become a bit, umm, acclimatised to thinking

1:08:35 > 1:08:38that we need antibiotics whenever we have got something wrong with us.

1:08:38 > 1:08:46And we don't.

1:08:46 > 1:08:49We just have to be re-educated, I suppose, to preserve the use

1:08:49 > 1:08:52of antibiotics for really serious infections.

1:08:52 > 1:08:54The latest advice from the NHS Medicines Watchdog reminds

1:08:54 > 1:08:57doctors and nurses that most sore throats will be better

1:08:57 > 1:08:59within a week, and only the most serious

1:08:59 > 1:09:03bacterial infections need antibiotics.

1:09:03 > 1:09:09Most patients are best advised to drink plenty of fluids,

1:09:09 > 1:09:13and to take paracetamol or Ibuprofen to help with pain relief..

1:09:13 > 1:09:21Dominic Hughes, BBC News.

1:09:22 > 1:09:25Several of the BBC's leading male news presenters and journalists have

1:09:25 > 1:09:28agreed to take salary cuts, following revelations about gender

1:09:28 > 1:09:29pay inequality at the corporation.

1:09:29 > 1:09:33An independent report on the issue is due to be published next week.

1:09:33 > 1:09:33Hey, Chris.

1:09:33 > 1:09:36How do you feel about BBC talent salaries being published?

1:09:36 > 1:09:39The publication last year of the pay for the BBC's on-air talent earning

1:09:39 > 1:09:42over £150,000 prompted a huge outcry, both because the top

1:09:42 > 1:09:46of the list was dominated by men, and because many men appeared to be

1:09:46 > 1:09:49getting more money for doing the same job as women,

1:09:49 > 1:09:50though individual circumstances varied hugely.

1:09:50 > 1:09:53Earlier this month, Carrie Gracie resigned her post as China editor

1:09:53 > 1:09:55in protest, saying she will return to London.

1:09:55 > 1:09:57Now, her colleagues, Jon Sopel, John Humphrys,

1:09:57 > 1:10:00Hugh Edwards, and Jeremy Vine, have all agreed in principle

1:10:00 > 1:10:01to have their salaries reduced.

1:10:01 > 1:10:05Ms Gracie is due to appear before a Select Committee of MPs next

1:10:05 > 1:10:06Wednesday shortly before the Director-General,

1:10:06 > 1:10:12his deputy, and the Director of News and Current Affairs also appear.

1:10:12 > 1:10:14Whereas competition in the entertainment industry has

1:10:14 > 1:10:16intensified, the opposite has happened in news.

1:10:16 > 1:10:19Many of those now taking paycuts secured generous deals years ago.

1:10:19 > 1:10:21That world has disappeared, and these presenters now accept that

1:10:21 > 1:10:24a chunk of their salaries will have to disappear with it.

1:10:24 > 1:10:32Amol Rajan, BBC News.

1:10:47 > 1:10:51Apparently, Moscow is spying on the energy network in the UK to find

1:10:51 > 1:10:59vulnerabilities.

1:10:59 > 1:11:00Businesses including Jamie Oliver's Italian restaurants,

1:11:00 > 1:11:03Hilton Hotels and the shopping channel QVC have all stopped selling

1:11:03 > 1:11:06some steak products, after the company that supplied them

1:11:06 > 1:11:08was placed under investigation by the Food Standards Agency.

1:11:08 > 1:11:11Russel Hume, who also supply meat to the Wetherspoon's pub chain,

1:11:11 > 1:11:14said there has never been any suggestion that their products

1:11:14 > 1:11:17caused illness and that the recall was a "precautionary measure

1:11:17 > 1:11:19because of mislabelling."

1:11:19 > 1:11:22More than 40 people have died after fire at a hospital in South

1:11:22 > 1:11:22Korea.

1:11:22 > 1:11:25It was thought to have started in the emergency room

1:11:25 > 1:11:28of the building in the city of Milyang in the south-east

1:11:28 > 1:11:29of the country.

1:11:29 > 1:11:37Around 100 patients were inside at the time.

1:11:41 > 1:11:43The number of pothole related breakdowns on British roads

1:11:43 > 1:11:47is rising, with the RAC blaming bad weather and a lack of investment.

1:11:47 > 1:11:50Councils say they would need to triple their road repair budgets

1:11:50 > 1:11:52to tackle a vast backlog of potholes.

1:11:52 > 1:11:54Our transport correspondent, Victoria Fritz, has more.

1:11:54 > 1:11:56They can cost hundreds of pounds' worth of damage

1:11:56 > 1:11:59and although councils fill in 2 million potholes a year,

1:11:59 > 1:12:01it seems like Britain's holes are crumbling faster they then

1:12:01 > 1:12:02can be repaired.

1:12:02 > 1:12:05It doesn't take a lot to damage a car.

1:12:05 > 1:12:07You can try to avoid them, you can't.

1:12:07 > 1:12:10You've only got to drive around this borough and you'll find

1:12:10 > 1:12:11loads of them.

1:12:11 > 1:12:14I take my children to school and come across quite a few potholes

1:12:14 > 1:12:17on the way, which is a bit dangerous with the car.

1:12:17 > 1:12:21It seems like after the horrible weather when you have ice or really

1:12:21 > 1:12:23cold weather, they all we seem to appear.

1:12:23 > 1:12:25Normally potholes develop after wet and cold weather,

1:12:25 > 1:12:28but the RAC says it's seeing the number of breakdowns caused

1:12:28 > 1:12:31by driving in poor roads increase, regardless of the season.

1:12:31 > 1:12:33RAC patrols attended 2,830 potholes related breakdowns between October

1:12:33 > 1:12:35and December of last year.

1:12:35 > 1:12:37That's 11% more than the same period the year before.

1:12:37 > 1:12:40Vehicles they attended typically suffered damaged shock absorbers,

1:12:40 > 1:12:41broken suspension springs and punctured wheels.

1:12:41 > 1:12:45Our local roads have suffered from years of underinvestment,

1:12:45 > 1:12:47and we would like to see ring-fence funding

1:12:47 > 1:12:50put in place so councils can plan their work appropriately

1:12:50 > 1:12:52and really sort out the problem once and for

1:12:52 > 1:13:00all.

1:13:01 > 1:13:03The government says it's investing £23 billion to increase capacity

1:13:03 > 1:13:04and improve road journeys.

1:13:04 > 1:13:07The majority of that will go on major roads and motorways.

1:13:07 > 1:13:10With budgets under increasing strain, the pressure is mounting

1:13:10 > 1:13:13on councils to plug the gaps in local roads where most journeys

1:13:13 > 1:13:14begin or end.

1:13:14 > 1:13:16Victoria Fritz, BBC News.

1:13:27 > 1:13:32Violent scenes broke out in France. One supermarket chain offered a 70%

1:13:32 > 1:13:41discount on no --

1:13:42 > 1:13:45One supermarket chain offered a 70% discount on no --. It is a hazelnut

1:13:45 > 1:13:51spread. People started pushing each other. All of the stock was snapped

1:13:51 > 1:13:56up in 15 minutes.It looks like they are picking it up off the floor.

1:13:56 > 1:14:03Don't get between a

1:14:03 > 1:14:06Don't get between a person and their Nutella. Apparently one person got a

1:14:06 > 1:14:08black eye.

1:14:08 > 1:14:11Nearly 4,000 people have descended on the small Swiss resort

1:14:11 > 1:14:14of Davos for this year's gathering of the so-called global elite.

1:14:14 > 1:14:17More than 70 are world leaders but all eyes will be

1:14:17 > 1:14:18on one man today.

1:14:18 > 1:14:20US President, Donald Trump, will deliver a keynote address

1:14:20 > 1:14:22after arriving yesterday for meetings, including with Theresa

1:14:22 > 1:14:23May.

1:14:23 > 1:14:26Ryan Heath from the Politico news website saw the President arrive

1:14:26 > 1:14:31and joins us now.

1:14:31 > 1:14:31What's

1:14:31 > 1:14:35the atmosphere like surrounding Donald Trump's visit, in terms of

1:14:35 > 1:14:40impressions of senior members in business, industry and politics,

1:14:40 > 1:14:47observing him observing them?It's a very seesaw impression. If you talk

1:14:47 > 1:14:52to the economic faction here, they are more open to Donald Trump than

1:14:52 > 1:14:56the more purely political people here. If you are a big banker, a

1:14:56 > 1:15:02tech titan, you might be benefiting from that tax reform. You tend to

1:15:02 > 1:15:06look past the tweeds, the harsh rhetoric, and you think what's in it

1:15:06 > 1:15:10for me? You can see how to cut a deal with Donald Trump. So they are

1:15:10 > 1:15:14more open-minded than the political class, who are very allergic to

1:15:14 > 1:15:21Donald Trump lashing out. They think he has a lot to prove.Economists

1:15:21 > 1:15:28are more pragmatic. He certainly made an entrance with helicopters

1:15:28 > 1:15:32and upon surrounding that.He has brought almost half of his Cabinet

1:15:32 > 1:15:37with him. We know he's got something big up his sleeve today, but it was

1:15:37 > 1:15:40a very strange atmosphere yesterday when he came in. People rushed

1:15:40 > 1:15:46around him like a celebrity. There wasn't more than five seconds of

1:15:46 > 1:15:50applause for Theresa May as people rushed to see Donald Trump come in,

1:15:50 > 1:15:54but he was almost silent reception. There was a little bit of photo

1:15:54 > 1:15:57taking, but he was almost like people were witnessing a strange,

1:15:57 > 1:16:02alien spectacle, rather than really participating in Trump's arrival.

1:16:02 > 1:16:07One of the things we are keen to look at is Theresa May. You

1:16:07 > 1:16:12mentioned her speech wasn't perhaps received as warmly as you might have

1:16:12 > 1:16:18hoped?Absolutely. But it was better than last year. Last year she gave a

1:16:18 > 1:16:22very tough sounding speech at Lancaster House the day before Davos

1:16:22 > 1:16:26and she really came here in at aftermath, the hangover of Brexit

1:16:26 > 1:16:30and told a group of people that didn't want it to happen that Brexit

1:16:30 > 1:16:34was coming fast towards them. Yesterday she had a different

1:16:34 > 1:16:37approach and she focused on technology and is trying to make

1:16:37 > 1:16:40Britain a home for artificial intelligence and innovations like

1:16:40 > 1:16:44that. That went down well with some people, but they found it strange

1:16:44 > 1:16:48that she had this niche topic to speak about, rather than lay out a

1:16:48 > 1:16:52global vision for what Britain is going to be after Brexit. The people

1:16:52 > 1:16:56in this room want to know what the new tax structure will be like in

1:16:56 > 1:17:00Britain. Is everyone going to be allowed to stay and enjoy Britain?

1:17:00 > 1:17:05Theresa May was really focused on the robots and what she would do to

1:17:05 > 1:17:08regulate intranet platforms stop white another thing we are

1:17:08 > 1:17:11interested in is the so-called special relationship. -- another

1:17:11 > 1:17:19thing. The word "very" was put in there by Donald Trump as well.

1:17:19 > 1:17:24If you think about where the UK and the US are standing now, a lot of

1:17:24 > 1:17:27the allies are concerned about the direction of both countries. They

1:17:27 > 1:17:30had a strong interest to play nice yesterday and Donald Trump is very

1:17:30 > 1:17:34charming person. You wouldn't know it from the tweeds, that he was

1:17:34 > 1:17:39really hamming it up with some of the European CEOs. He was turning on

1:17:39 > 1:17:43the hotelier charm that he is known for and they were going for it.

1:17:43 > 1:17:47There was a bit of that with the Theresa May discussion. She will be

1:17:47 > 1:17:50pleased to have hour-long discussion. Everyone reaffirmed that

1:17:50 > 1:17:54they want to work closely together and perhaps we need not take too

1:17:54 > 1:17:57seriously this idea that trade is going to double overnight, but

1:17:57 > 1:18:01clearly there is goodwill there. Theresa May has the opening she

1:18:01 > 1:18:05wanted for that even more special relationship after Brexit.Stay with

1:18:05 > 1:18:09me a moment. We have some footage of Donald Trump given one of his first

1:18:09 > 1:18:16international interviews, with an ITV journalist. It aired in the last

1:18:16 > 1:18:211.5 hours. Donald Trump explained his decision to retweet videos by

1:18:21 > 1:18:28right group.It was done because I am a big believer in fighting

1:18:28 > 1:18:35radical Islamic terror. This was a depiction of radical Islamic terror.

1:18:35 > 1:18:39They were unverified videos, at least one of them.But I didn't do

1:18:39 > 1:18:48it. It was a big story where you are, but not where I am.I get that.

1:18:48 > 1:18:52This was airing in Britain and I want them to get to the real you.

1:18:52 > 1:18:56The real need is someone that loves Britain, loves the UK, I love

1:18:56 > 1:19:01Scotland. I wish... One of the biggest problem they have been

1:19:01 > 1:19:06winning, I won't be able to get back there so often. I would love to go

1:19:06 > 1:19:10there. As you know, before this happened, I would be there a lot.

1:19:10 > 1:19:14Very special people and a very special place. I don't want to cause

1:19:14 > 1:19:19any difficulty for your country, that I can tell you.Can I get an

1:19:19 > 1:19:23apology out of you just for the retweet? It would go a long way.

1:19:23 > 1:19:27Here is what is fair. If you are telling me these are horrible and

1:19:27 > 1:19:32racist people, I would certainly apologise, if you would like me to

1:19:32 > 1:19:36do that.I knew nothing about them. And you would disavow yourself of

1:19:36 > 1:19:40people like that?I do want to be involved with people like that. You

1:19:40 > 1:19:44are telling me about them, as I don't know anything about them.That

1:19:44 > 1:19:49interview airs on Sunday, the 28th of January, at 10pm on ITV one.I

1:19:49 > 1:19:55assuming you heard that. This was an issue that offended a lot of people

1:19:55 > 1:20:00and it also cast a dark cloud across the relationship between Theresa May

1:20:00 > 1:20:04and Donald Trump and that needed to be shown to be repaired at Davos.

1:20:04 > 1:20:10Absolutely. You will listen into a bit of a Swiss miracle. I don't

1:20:10 > 1:20:13think any of us have heard Donald Trump apologise before, even if it

1:20:13 > 1:20:23was only a cause I apology. -- quasi- apology. But Donald Trump

1:20:23 > 1:20:26tweets first before he thinks. The difficulty a lot of people have

1:20:26 > 1:20:30around the world with his style is that governing is complicated. You

1:20:30 > 1:20:36have to consider more than what jumps into your thumbs when you are

1:20:36 > 1:20:40racing through your Twitter wall. So people in Britain would be wise to

1:20:40 > 1:20:44keep on the back of their memories how Trump behaves over time, not

1:20:44 > 1:20:48just the last thing he said to Piers Morgan or whoever he is talking to.

1:20:48 > 1:20:52The relationship has to be based on a little bit more than what you find

1:20:52 > 1:20:56on your Twitter account when you wake up in the morning.Good to talk

1:20:56 > 1:20:59to you. Thank you very much for your time.

1:20:59 > 1:21:05Here's Sarah with a look at this morning's weather.

1:21:05 > 1:21:12Good morning. Quite a fresh start to your Friday morning. A little bit of

1:21:12 > 1:21:16frost around and a few mist and fog patches. Through the day it is

1:21:16 > 1:21:20looking pretty decent for many of us. This was the scene yesterday in

1:21:20 > 1:21:23Oxfordshire and a similar story today. Many of us will have blue sky

1:21:23 > 1:21:28and sunshine. The fairly quiet weather is down to this region of

1:21:28 > 1:21:31high pressure moving on from the Atlantic. That's keeping the weather

1:21:31 > 1:21:35quiet before weather fronts ahead in during the course of the night and

1:21:35 > 1:21:39into the weekend. This morning for Scotland and Northern Ireland, a

1:21:39 > 1:21:42couple of misty and murky patches and frost around. Further south

1:21:42 > 1:21:46across England and Wales, are largely dry and somewhat fresh

1:21:46 > 1:21:51start. A couple of isolated showers around the east and west coast, but

1:21:51 > 1:21:55is avoiding the showers. Temperatures around 4- five degrees.

1:21:55 > 1:21:58Patchy cloud through central and south-eastern parts of England, but

1:21:58 > 1:22:02that should break up any mist and fog patches. Looking like a quiet

1:22:02 > 1:22:07day. You can see the sunshine filtering across the country,

1:22:07 > 1:22:12dissolving the cloud in the south and east. Not wall-to-wall sunshine,

1:22:12 > 1:22:15but a decent day. With light winds temperatures are fairly typical of

1:22:15 > 1:22:20the time of year, between 4- 90 degrees. Things change at a bit

1:22:20 > 1:22:26later this afternoon, towards the north-west. This rain heads in

1:22:26 > 1:22:29across Northern Ireland and Scotland into the early part of this evening.

1:22:29 > 1:22:33It fizzles out for a time but then the next area moves on from the

1:22:33 > 1:22:38west, so by the end of the night in the early Saturday we have rain

1:22:38 > 1:22:41across much of Scotland, Northern Ireland and in the western parts of

1:22:41 > 1:22:44England and Wales. The south and east, a colder start to Saturday

1:22:44 > 1:22:48morning. Through the day it will be dominated by a brisk weather front.

1:22:48 > 1:22:55Low pressure, fairly deep, to the north of the UK. There is a really

1:22:55 > 1:22:58strong wind across the Northern Isles and for mainland parts of

1:22:58 > 1:23:01northern Scotland. Breezy further south across the country as the rain

1:23:01 > 1:23:06tracks eastwards. Coming light and patchy by the time it reaches

1:23:06 > 1:23:10southern and eastern England. Followed by sunny spells and

1:23:10 > 1:23:14blustery showers coming in from the north-west, although temperatures

1:23:14 > 1:23:17almost across-the-board upback into double figures tomorrow. Mild air

1:23:17 > 1:23:23arriving. For Sunday much milder air sweeps in from the south-west. So

1:23:23 > 1:23:28not a bad day for some of us on Sunday. Much of England and Wales

1:23:28 > 1:23:32should be largely dry. There will be some rain at times for Northern

1:23:32 > 1:23:36Ireland and later Scotland as well. Which is certainly mild, up to about

1:23:36 > 1:23:4213 degrees. That's the thing through the weekend. It stays mild. Often

1:23:42 > 1:23:45windy weather through the weekend and there will be some rain at

1:23:47 > 1:23:49thanks very much.

1:23:49 > 1:23:53For nearly 40 years, the RSPB has been encouraging us

1:23:53 > 1:23:56to venture out into our gardens, and count the birds that visit

1:23:56 > 1:23:59so we get a snapshot of the UK bird population.

1:23:59 > 1:24:02This weekend, the Big Garden Birdwatch returns with more

1:24:02 > 1:24:05than half a million people set to take part, including one

1:24:05 > 1:24:06family in Cambridgeshire.

1:24:06 > 1:24:11Breakfast's Tim Muffitt is with them this morning.

1:24:11 > 1:24:19Good morning! Good morning and welcome to the back

1:24:19 > 1:24:23garden of Emma, Woody and Nora. They are getting ready for the Big Garden

1:24:23 > 1:24:28Birdwatch.We are all getting ready. What's your favourite bird?Robin.

1:24:28 > 1:24:35Kingfisher.Good stuff. We are doing this because the world's biggest

1:24:35 > 1:24:40wildlife survey gets under way this weekend. Go out, into your garden if

1:24:40 > 1:24:44you've got one or an outside space, and count how many birds you can see

1:24:44 > 1:24:49for one hour. Log which ones they are, log on to the RSPB website and

1:24:49 > 1:24:52the huge amount of information can be collected from that. Jamie, you

1:24:52 > 1:24:58are from the RSPB. How big a deal is this survey?Huge. It is the biggest

1:24:58 > 1:25:03of its kind in the world, over 500,000 people take part every year.

1:25:03 > 1:25:07Last year the most popular bird was the sparrow. What have you learnt

1:25:07 > 1:25:09about sparrows over the years because of the survey?The house

1:25:09 > 1:25:14sparrow remains at number one or in the top ten every year. The numbers

1:25:14 > 1:25:19are plummeting in the UK, so we are concerned.When it comes to this

1:25:19 > 1:25:22year, what are the particular species you might see, which you

1:25:22 > 1:25:27haven't seen before? And why might that be?There's been an influx of a

1:25:27 > 1:25:31type of image, which has a massive beak and crunches on seeds. You

1:25:31 > 1:25:37might also see greenfinches as well. What's happened weatherwise which

1:25:37 > 1:25:44might help that?With the fringe areas a storm that swept quite a few

1:25:44 > 1:25:48people into the country and with the smaller birds, because it has been a

1:25:48 > 1:25:52mild year last year, there should be good numbers of them, good survival

1:25:52 > 1:25:58rates.If you get very lucky, tell us about some of the most unusual

1:25:58 > 1:26:05birds seen as part of this?This includes a beaten, and a massive

1:26:05 > 1:26:11white tailed eagle.The white tailed eagle has been spotted?Yes, flying

1:26:11 > 1:26:18overhead of someone's Arden. -- garden.Thank you. Have you loaded

1:26:18 > 1:26:23your bird feeders? You don't need to have one, but it does encourage

1:26:23 > 1:26:27birds to come to the garden. Which birds have you seen?Wagtails. Don't

1:26:27 > 1:26:37we? Robbins, who tips.We sometimes see starlings.Let's load the bird

1:26:37 > 1:26:43feeder. It takes place this weekend. If you can get outside, it's a great

1:26:43 > 1:26:47thing for the kids to do. Spot as many birds as you can and try to

1:26:47 > 1:26:50work out which ones they are. Huge amount of information will be

1:26:50 > 1:26:54collected from the activity. We will be back with you later.

1:26:54 > 1:26:59Thanks very much. Those bird feeders are good because

1:26:59 > 1:27:02the squirrels can't get to them as easily.

1:27:02 > 1:30:22Time now for the news, travel and weather where you are.

1:30:22 > 1:30:24in half an hour.

1:30:24 > 1:30:25Now, though, it's back to Charlie and Naga.

1:30:32 > 1:30:32Hello.

1:30:32 > 1:30:34This is Breakfast, with Naga and Charlie.

1:30:34 > 1:30:36We'll have the headlines in just a moment.

1:30:36 > 1:30:44Coming up on Breakfast today.

1:30:45 > 1:30:49Donald Trump says he's prepared to apologise for retweeting

1:30:49 > 1:30:50racist videos from a far-right British Group.

1:30:50 > 1:30:52His comments comes he arrives in Switzerland to address world

1:30:52 > 1:30:56leaders and confirmes talks are under way for a trip to the UK

1:30:56 > 1:31:04in the second half of the year.

1:31:06 > 1:31:12I do not want to cause any difficulty for your country.Would

1:31:12 > 1:31:18you apologise?If you said this was horrible, I would certainly

1:31:18 > 1:31:23apologise if you would like me to do that. I know nothing about these

1:31:23 > 1:31:29people.You would disavow yourself of them?I know nothing about these

1:31:29 > 1:31:38people.President Trump being interviewed by Piers Morgan.

1:31:42 > 1:31:44Most sore throats should be treated with paracetamol rather

1:31:44 > 1:31:46than antibiotics, according to new guidance from

1:31:46 > 1:31:47the NHS medicines watchdog.

1:31:47 > 1:31:50The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence,

1:31:50 > 1:31:53NICE, says the drugs are prescribed in 60% of cases,

1:31:53 > 1:31:55despite being mostly ineffective.

1:31:55 > 1:31:58Several of the BBC's leading male news presenters and journalists have

1:31:58 > 1:32:00agreed to take salary cuts, following revelations about gender

1:32:00 > 1:32:02pay inequality at the corporation.

1:32:02 > 1:32:10An independent report on the issue is due to be published next week.

1:32:21 > 1:32:25More than 40 people have died after a fire at a hospital in South

1:32:25 > 1:32:25Korea.

1:32:25 > 1:32:28It was thought to have started in the emergency room

1:32:28 > 1:32:31of the building in the city of Milyang in the south-east

1:32:31 > 1:32:31of the country.

1:32:31 > 1:32:34Around 100 patients were inside at the time.

1:32:34 > 1:32:36The Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson has said Russia

1:32:36 > 1:32:38is drawing up plans to cause "thousands and thousands

1:32:38 > 1:32:41and thousands of deaths" in Britain by crippling vital infrastructure.

1:32:41 > 1:32:43In an interview with The Daily Telegraph,

1:32:43 > 1:32:47he says Moscow is spying on the UK's energy network in an attempt to spot

1:32:47 > 1:32:47vulnerabilities

1:32:47 > 1:32:55in the country.

1:32:56 > 1:32:58Businesses including Jamie Oliver's Italian restaurants,

1:32:58 > 1:33:01Hilton Hotels and the shopping channel QVC have all stopped selling

1:33:01 > 1:33:03some steak products, after the company that supplied them

1:33:03 > 1:33:06was placed under investigation by the Food Standards Agency.

1:33:06 > 1:33:09Russel Hume, who also supply meat to the Wetherspoon's pub chain,

1:33:09 > 1:33:11said there has never been any suggestion that their products

1:33:11 > 1:33:14caused illness and that the recall was a "precautionary measure

1:33:14 > 1:33:22because of mislabelling."

1:33:22 > 1:33:25The number of pothole related breakdowns on British roads

1:33:25 > 1:33:28is rising, with the RAC blaming bad weather and a lack of investment.

1:33:28 > 1:33:31Councils say they would need to triple their road repair budgets

1:33:31 > 1:33:38to tackle a vast backlog of potholes.

1:33:38 > 1:33:41Now, a rare white lion cub is making its first appearance

1:33:41 > 1:33:43at a zoo in Mexico.

1:33:43 > 1:33:49It looks like a star in the making.

1:33:49 > 1:33:59Very curious, very cute. It enjoys investigating it. It was that by its

1:33:59 > 1:34:08mother so it is now being hand-reared. It does not have a name

1:34:08 > 1:34:18and the public is being asked for suggestions. There are only 300 left

1:34:18 > 1:34:26in the world.I want that job. Just a few months.

1:34:26 > 1:34:32a few months. A few bottles, we'd get on well. A few scratches. We

1:34:32 > 1:34:37would be fine. A bit of a rough and tumble.It was an extraordinary game

1:34:37 > 1:34:42of cricket.

1:34:45 > 1:34:48of cricket. They have won the series, which might explain their

1:34:48 > 1:34:52worst start ever. They have caught up, though.

1:34:52 > 1:34:54It was all going so well for England's cricketers

1:34:54 > 1:34:57in their One-Day series in Australia, but they suffered one

1:34:57 > 1:35:00of the worst starts in their history in Adelaide this morning

1:35:00 > 1:35:03when they lost their first five wickets for just eight runs.

1:35:03 > 1:35:05Yes, you heard correctly, eight runs.

1:35:05 > 1:35:08There was a procession of batsmen walking on and off the field

1:35:08 > 1:35:11as England at one stage were heading for their worst-ever one-day score

1:35:11 > 1:35:14but they recovered thanks to Chris Woakes who made

1:35:14 > 1:35:15a brilliant 78.

1:35:15 > 1:35:21England were all out for 196 in reply.

1:35:22 > 1:35:31Kyle Edmund. What a story. A bit of an injury.We were a bit busy when

1:35:31 > 1:35:41it first started.He was beaten by Marin Cilic, but he

1:35:41 > 1:35:44Marin Cilic, but he is in the top 30. He should be seeded by

1:35:44 > 1:35:52Wimbledon.He has his head held high.

1:35:53 > 1:35:58In the end it was not to be. Only the sixth British man in the modern

1:35:58 > 1:36:02era to get to that stage stage of the Grand Slam. He was beaten in

1:36:02 > 1:36:07straight sets by Marin Cilic in the Australian Open.

1:36:07 > 1:36:10He thanked the Australian Open, saying "What an amazing couple

1:36:10 > 1:36:10weeks it's been."

1:36:10 > 1:36:14"Sorry I didn't get the win today, but thank you for all the support,

1:36:14 > 1:36:16it meant the world to me."

1:36:16 > 1:36:20Yeovil, 21st, taking on Manchester United.

1:36:20 > 1:36:21The fourth round of the FA Cup.

1:36:21 > 1:36:24They have a new star with Alexis Sanchez

1:36:24 > 1:36:31making his debut.

1:36:31 > 1:36:33He received a friendly greeting from Yeovil.

1:36:33 > 1:36:37In a Tweet, they gave him a sneak preview of the away dressing room.

1:36:37 > 1:36:45They said it was the biggest.

1:36:48 > 1:36:57Looks a bit empty. They joke it is the biggest in League two.

1:36:57 > 1:37:00Well, back to the current Yeovil team, and their manager,

1:37:00 > 1:37:02Darren Way, has faced tougher challenges than Manchester United.

1:37:02 > 1:37:06Nine years ago he was in a car crash, which meant he couldn't walk

1:37:06 > 1:37:07for a year.

1:37:07 > 1:37:10He's had 29 operations since, and has been speaking

1:37:10 > 1:37:11to Football Focus' Mark Clemmit.

1:37:11 > 1:37:13At that stage, it was life or death.

1:37:13 > 1:37:15I know what that feels like.

1:37:15 > 1:37:17It has probably helped me deal with football management.

1:37:17 > 1:37:20It has made me more resilient, more determined.

1:37:20 > 1:37:22I wake up with the willpower to succeed.

1:37:22 > 1:37:24Did you think you were going to die?

1:37:24 > 1:37:24Yes.

1:37:24 > 1:37:26A scary feeling, that's for sure.

1:37:26 > 1:37:28I am very appreciative of what Manchester United

1:37:28 > 1:37:29did for me.

1:37:29 > 1:37:30Now I am manager.

1:37:30 > 1:37:33Against all odds, to get into this position, it is what dreams

1:37:33 > 1:37:41are made of.

1:37:49 > 1:37:51What an extraordinary story.

1:37:51 > 1:37:54You can see more of that interview ahead of the game,

1:37:54 > 1:37:55which is on BBC One this evening.

1:37:55 > 1:37:56Coverage starts at 7:30.

1:37:56 > 1:38:07This is mind-boggling. You could get 18 Yeovil Towns for one Alexis

1:38:07 > 1:38:17Sanchez. £18.2 million a year, 18 times what it

1:38:31 > 1:38:34times what it costs Yeovil for their whole team. Not just a player, 18

1:38:34 > 1:38:38clubs for one player. Probably why he can afford to keep his two dogs

1:38:38 > 1:38:48in his hotel. Atom and Humber. There he is.

1:38:48 > 1:38:58he is. "Didier Dogba." Not my pun. Thanks. See you later on.

1:38:58 > 1:39:01Warnings about the links between alcohol and cancer should be

1:39:01 > 1:39:04routinely included on drinks labels in the UK, according

1:39:04 > 1:39:04to health experts.

1:39:04 > 1:39:08The Royal Society for Public Health says only one in ten people

1:39:08 > 1:39:10are aware of the risk between drinking and seven different

1:39:10 > 1:39:18types of cancer.

1:39:20 > 1:39:23The group says 10 million people in the UK are drinking alcohol

1:39:23 > 1:39:26at levels which could be harmful to their health.

1:39:26 > 1:39:29At the moment, drinks companies only have to put three warnings

1:39:29 > 1:39:30on their packaging.

1:39:30 > 1:39:33The number of units of alcohol, a message not to drink

1:39:33 > 1:39:35when pregnant, and a signpost to the Government's drinkaware website.

1:39:35 > 1:39:38Now, there are calls for bigger, clearer labels which warn

1:39:38 > 1:39:40of the specific health risks, the low-risk drinking guidelines

1:39:40 > 1:39:44of no more than 14 units a week and the dangers of drink driving.

1:39:44 > 1:39:48With us now is Duncan Stephenson from the Royal Society for Public

1:39:48 > 1:39:49Health.

1:39:49 > 1:39:52Good morning.Good morning.Good morning.People are familiar with

1:39:52 > 1:39:57the packaging. What do you wanted look like?We think there is scope

1:39:57 > 1:40:02to have much more information. And also to make the information more

1:40:02 > 1:40:07clear. From the research we have done with consumers, they are

1:40:07 > 1:40:12concerned many of the health warnings are buried on the back of a

1:40:12 > 1:40:16bottle.In the picture, a bottle of wine. Where are the warning signs?

1:40:16 > 1:40:24How big are they? Are they on the front?First of all, we want to see

1:40:24 > 1:40:29calorie information on the front of the bottle. We know 80% of the

1:40:29 > 1:40:32public do not know about the calories in alcohol. In visible

1:40:32 > 1:40:43calories. It helps. -- Invisible. And drinking guidelines.

1:40:57 > 1:41:00And drinking guidelines. Back in 2016, two years ago, the Chief

1:41:00 > 1:41:02Medical Officer revised the guidelines. One in six know you only

1:41:02 > 1:41:07are supposed to drink 14 units a week. If you look at the bottles on

1:41:07 > 1:41:10the shelves at a supermarket, they have the old guidelines, three -

1:41:10 > 1:41:17four units. Or they have no information at all.Does the public

1:41:17 > 1:41:23can? If you go to get a bottle of wine, will they even look? -- care.

1:41:23 > 1:41:27There are three obligations already. I wonder if someone wants to buy a

1:41:27 > 1:41:37bottle

1:41:44 > 1:41:48bottle of wine or whatever, they'll just buy it. They might be more

1:41:48 > 1:41:50mindful, but the calories... They will still proceed.Look at other

1:41:50 > 1:41:54products on the market, food and tobacco. Alcohol is behind the curve

1:41:54 > 1:41:57in terms of providing information. Food labels are pretty clear with

1:41:57 > 1:42:02calorie information. There is anecdotal evidence from supermarkets

1:42:02 > 1:42:06people use them to influence purchasing behaviour. The same is

1:42:06 > 1:42:11true of tobacco with graphic warnings. One in four people will

1:42:11 > 1:42:13think twice about smoking as a result.Calorie information is

1:42:13 > 1:42:19different... When we talked about highlighting the links to cancer for

1:42:19 > 1:42:23example, they are separate things. One is health, one is dietary. The

1:42:23 > 1:42:30links to cancer, why is that not being absorbed at all?One in ten

1:42:30 > 1:42:34people do not know about the links. Where would they find this

1:42:34 > 1:42:39information?Do you think the wine industry, the alcohol industry, will

1:42:39 > 1:42:44it be open to this?We are not convinced they are. We embarked on

1:42:44 > 1:42:49this research with the drinks producers to better understand what

1:42:49 > 1:42:56consumers think.I just want to ask about pricing. I remember many times

1:42:56 > 1:43:01when successive governments have talked about unit pricing. They said

1:43:01 > 1:43:09it should be illegal for you to get water and soft drinks at alcohol

1:43:09 > 1:43:14places. If this is about getting people to drink less alcohol, that

1:43:14 > 1:43:19is presumably the ultimate goal, pricing ultimately... What about

1:43:19 > 1:43:25that?There are three things, the affordability of alcohol, unit

1:43:25 > 1:43:31pricing taking place in Scotland from May which is fantastic. We want

1:43:31 > 1:43:36the rest of the UK to adopt that. There is stuff around the

1:43:36 > 1:43:47acceptability of drinking alcohol. We have a

1:43:47 > 1:43:49We have a programme called Communities In Charge of Alcohol in

1:43:49 > 1:43:52Manchester, supporting people, though no legislation. You need a

1:43:52 > 1:43:55mixture of both legislation and regulation, and also information,

1:43:55 > 1:43:59you need that to get to the public. That is what this label label will

1:43:59 > 1:44:02do.There has been some research saying they found little public

1:44:02 > 1:44:09interest in it, in labelling drinks. People are adverse to lots of

1:44:09 > 1:44:15information crammed on a label.We would agree with that. We would

1:44:15 > 1:44:21agree the information needs to be presented in a clear fashion. If you

1:44:21 > 1:44:24look at the pregnancy warning, the drink-driving warning, it is buried

1:44:24 > 1:44:28on the back. When we did consumer research, few people noticed it.

1:44:28 > 1:44:35But, yes, there needs to be a menu of different options available for

1:44:35 > 1:44:41information to the consumer.Thank you very much were talking to us.

1:44:41 > 1:44:49From the Royal Society for Public Health.

1:44:50 > 1:44:53Things are looking a little bit unsettled through the weekend, but

1:44:53 > 1:44:56today we have a glorious Friday ahead. A fresh and chilly start to

1:44:56 > 1:45:01the day, but many of us will see sunshine. This was yesterday in

1:45:01 > 1:45:07Oxfordshire. Some blue sky on offer today. The reason the weather is

1:45:07 > 1:45:11quiet is because we have this high-pressure XT and in across the

1:45:11 > 1:45:16country. There are weather fronts waiting out there in the Atlantic,

1:45:16 > 1:45:21but this morning across Scotland and Northern Ireland most places dry.

1:45:21 > 1:45:26Chilly and frosty start. A couple of showers for Aberdeenshire, and a few

1:45:26 > 1:45:29showers down the north-east coast of England. Many places start the day

1:45:29 > 1:45:36dry as we head south in England and Wales. A couple of isolated showers

1:45:36 > 1:45:40around the west and east coast. Further inland it is dry, quite a

1:45:40 > 1:45:46bit of cloud around first thing, but that cloud will thin and break and

1:45:46 > 1:45:49any mist and fog patches lift away over the next few hours. So, an

1:45:49 > 1:45:54improving picture. Many of us will see a return to blue sky and

1:45:54 > 1:45:58sunshine and light winds. So it will feel pleasant if you have outdoor

1:45:58 > 1:46:04plans. Today temperatures are fairly typical. About 4-9 degrees. Then

1:46:04 > 1:46:09change into this evening. The rain working in from the north-west.

1:46:09 > 1:46:15Reindler Northern Ireland, Scotland, perhaps a bit of snow on the highest

1:46:15 > 1:46:19ground -- rain into Northern Ireland. Then persistent rain moves

1:46:19 > 1:46:23in from the west. It is the weather front to start Saturday morning.

1:46:23 > 1:46:28Clearer to the south and east, and colder. Saturday dominated by the

1:46:28 > 1:46:33low pressure. The centre of the low pressure quite far to the north of

1:46:33 > 1:46:37the UK. Still windy conditions and this front has rain, especially

1:46:37 > 1:46:41strong winds to the Northern Isles and severe gales are possible here.

1:46:41 > 1:46:46It is a breezy day and the band of rain edges eastwards. It will be

1:46:46 > 1:46:50light and patchy by the time we get the southern and eastern parts of

1:46:50 > 1:46:53England in the afternoon and it will be followed by something brighter.

1:46:53 > 1:46:57Sunny spells from the north-west. Still some scattered showers, but

1:46:57 > 1:47:00temperatures for the most part in double figures. Then temperatures

1:47:00 > 1:47:05rise into the weekend. On Sunday the mild air comes in from the

1:47:05 > 1:47:09south-west. A bit of a mixed day on Sunday. Initially a bit of Reindler

1:47:09 > 1:47:13Northern Ireland, moving north into central Scotland. A couple of

1:47:13 > 1:47:19showers for Western England and Wales. Driest towards the east. 13-

1:47:19 > 1:47:2314 degrees. Things staying mild through the weekend. It is looking

1:47:23 > 1:47:31windy at times. A bit of rain, but not looking like a complete washout.

1:47:31 > 1:47:34That's something to be pleased about! Thanks.

1:47:34 > 1:47:37The family of a 13-year-old who was shot and killed

1:47:37 > 1:47:40after handling an air rifle want to see tighter controls around

1:47:40 > 1:47:42the type of guns that killed their son.

1:47:42 > 1:47:43Ben Wragge died in 2016.

1:47:43 > 1:47:47His family want changes in the way the public perceives air rifles.

1:47:47 > 1:47:48Graham Satchell reports.

1:47:48 > 1:47:50He was a lovely lad.

1:47:50 > 1:47:51Very, very kindhearted.

1:47:51 > 1:47:56Peter Wragge's grandson died in a tragic accident.

1:47:56 > 1:48:00He was playing with some friends at a friend's house.

1:48:00 > 1:48:04They got hold of an air rifle.

1:48:04 > 1:48:05It went off.

1:48:05 > 1:48:08Just a terrible tragedy.

1:48:08 > 1:48:12Ben Wragge was just 13 when he died.

1:48:12 > 1:48:16The airgun belonged to his friend's dad.

1:48:16 > 1:48:21The air guns seem to be treated as boy's toys,

1:48:21 > 1:48:24but it proves they are lethal weapons and they need treating

1:48:24 > 1:48:32and looking after as such.

1:48:33 > 1:48:37This is the North Wales Shooting School.

1:48:37 > 1:48:38Brett Davis the instructor here.

1:48:38 > 1:48:41The death of Ben Wragge has prompted a review of the rules

1:48:41 > 1:48:42in England and Wales.

1:48:42 > 1:48:45Do you think this is a dangerous weapon?

1:48:45 > 1:48:48No, I don't think it's a dangerous weapon in the right hands.

1:48:48 > 1:48:51Anything in the wrong hands or ill-advised hands could be

1:48:51 > 1:48:54dangerous, just as a knife could be dangerous in the wrong hands.

1:48:54 > 1:48:56In the shop next door, air guns for sale.

1:48:56 > 1:48:57The rules?

1:48:57 > 1:49:05You have to be over 18 to buy one in England and Wales.

1:49:07 > 1:49:10There are restrictions on where you can use them and it's

1:49:10 > 1:49:12an offence to let children fire

1:49:12 > 1:49:12them without supervision.

1:49:12 > 1:49:15I think the law we have works already and I don't

1:49:15 > 1:49:17think we need any more.

1:49:17 > 1:49:20We need to enforce the law we have and we need

1:49:20 > 1:49:23to get education for young people and I think that's absolutely

1:49:23 > 1:49:23critical.

1:49:23 > 1:49:25Hundreds and hundreds of air rifles.

1:49:25 > 1:49:27This is Scotland, where after another tragic death the law

1:49:27 > 1:49:28changed last year.

1:49:28 > 1:49:32You now need a licence to buy or own one and you

1:49:32 > 1:49:34need to keep them under lock and key.

1:49:34 > 1:49:3620,000 air guns were handed in and destroyed in Scotland.

1:49:36 > 1:49:39Around 15,000 were licensed in the first six months.

1:49:39 > 1:49:41That is held in by the trigger...

1:49:41 > 1:49:43Critics say the new rules in Scotland penalise the law-abiding

1:49:43 > 1:49:46majority and are disproportionate, especially as offences involving air

1:49:46 > 1:49:48rifles have been falling for more than a decade.

1:49:48 > 1:49:51In modern society, there are many things that are potentially

1:49:51 > 1:49:59dangerous and if we went down the path of stopping something

1:49:59 > 1:50:01because one person might not die, I don't think

1:50:01 > 1:50:03we would achieve anything.

1:50:03 > 1:50:06There are so many other things that are risky.

1:50:06 > 1:50:06Really?

1:50:06 > 1:50:06Yes.

1:50:06 > 1:50:10That's a tough thing to say.

1:50:10 > 1:50:15I think a lot of people would say it is worth it if we save one life.

1:50:15 > 1:50:17Well, you have to look at proportionality and merely doing

1:50:17 > 1:50:20that doesn't actually achieve that proportionality.

1:50:20 > 1:50:25It can't be a disproportionate response.

1:50:25 > 1:50:29What we're trying to do is stop this happening to any other families.

1:50:29 > 1:50:32It doesn't matter how bureaucratic it is, if it saves

1:50:32 > 1:50:33a life, it saves a life.

1:50:33 > 1:50:35And there's the heart of this debate.

1:50:35 > 1:50:38Is it worth introducing new rules that may be burdensome for gun

1:50:38 > 1:50:40owners if it saves one life?

1:50:40 > 1:50:46It's for the government in Westminster to decide.

1:50:46 > 1:50:49Later this morning we'll get the official figures on how well

1:50:49 > 1:50:56the economy performed last year.

1:50:56 > 1:51:01Ben is at a motorcycle factory in Leicestershire.

1:51:01 > 1:51:10Good morning. You're a boy with toys today.

1:51:10 > 1:51:17This is fascinating, looking at how these things get made. We are at the

1:51:17 > 1:51:21Triumph factory. Manufacturing has been a real success story this year.

1:51:21 > 1:51:25Later we will get the official growth figures for the UK this year,

1:51:25 > 1:51:28which will tell us how the economy fared over the whole year.

1:51:28 > 1:51:34Manufacturing did well, largely because of the weak pound, which

1:51:34 > 1:51:37means UK manufacturers that sell overseas could sell products

1:51:37 > 1:51:41cheaper. So all of that has been good news. Let me run you through

1:51:41 > 1:51:46the good and bad. Any factory has been a success story and we've also

1:51:46 > 1:51:49seen at employment has risen sharply. The number of people out of

1:51:49 > 1:51:54work is down. But at the same time we've also seen that inflation is

1:51:54 > 1:51:58rising quickly, so it might mean we have less money in our pocket

1:51:58 > 1:52:01because prices are rising for the things we buy and consume on an

1:52:01 > 1:52:05everyday basis. That has meant retail sales have struggled quite a

1:52:05 > 1:52:09lot. We are not going to the high street. We might be buying less

1:52:09 > 1:52:13because we feel we have less money in our pockets. What happens this

1:52:13 > 1:52:17year and next year, those are the big questions. Let me introduce you

1:52:17 > 1:52:24to Gaynor, who runs a recruitment agency in Coventry.How has the last

1:52:24 > 1:52:29year been? We saw fantastic growth last year. We had a 20% increase in

1:52:29 > 1:52:33sales, however that was coupled with the cost of recruiting people within

1:52:33 > 1:52:39the sectors. That rose quite significantly. By 25%. Therefore we

1:52:39 > 1:52:44were only slightly up year-on-year in terms of profit.Why does the

1:52:44 > 1:52:50cost of recruiting someone go up? To get people to do jobs like this?

1:52:50 > 1:52:54What was experienced over the last couple of years is people are going

1:52:54 > 1:52:58back to the EU and not coming in the influx that they used to come in. So

1:52:58 > 1:53:02we don't have the skills base in the UK because we haven't been running

1:53:02 > 1:53:06apprenticeship schemes and we haven't got the skills directly from

1:53:06 > 1:53:10them to tap straight into, therefore we are spending more in terms of

1:53:10 > 1:53:16advertising, recruitment, to get the skills through the door.Do you

1:53:16 > 1:53:20worry about what happens next? We see the growth we've seen, great

1:53:20 > 1:53:23news for the economy, but that relies on people having to do their

1:53:23 > 1:53:28jobs.It makes our job as recruiters so much more difficult.But we

1:53:28 > 1:53:36always find a way. Thanks very much. Let me introduce you to a --

1:53:36 > 1:53:40Professor Wang. Last year was good for most firms, especially

1:53:40 > 1:53:45manufacturers. At lots of questions at next year.I feel next year will

1:53:45 > 1:53:54be a challenge, we are set to start the treaty negotiation with our EU

1:53:54 > 1:53:59partners. Hopefully they will give us some additional achievement along

1:53:59 > 1:54:05the way and they will clear uncertainties around Brexit, which

1:54:05 > 1:54:09will give an additional boost to investors' confidence.That's the

1:54:09 > 1:54:15good news. What are the worries of a rise in? A lot of businesses say

1:54:15 > 1:54:20next year would be tough.We have been doing well due to the weak

1:54:20 > 1:54:23pound, but the value of the pound is bouncing back. Looking at the

1:54:23 > 1:54:32exchange rate, between the pound and the dollar, it has risen to 1.4, up

1:54:32 > 1:54:36from 1.2 last year. So if this trend continues this means it will make

1:54:36 > 1:54:43our exporting sector a struggle again because our goods will be more

1:54:43 > 1:54:48expensive.OK, good to talk to you. Thank you. That's really the issue

1:54:48 > 1:54:54as far as business is concerned. Last year remembered this growth

1:54:54 > 1:55:00figures. We are expecting a figure for the last quarter of about 0.3,

1:55:00 > 1:55:080.4%. So that means the economy grew about 0.8%. Not great, but growth is

1:55:08 > 1:55:12growth. It means more of us are in work and hopefully wages will now

1:55:12 > 1:55:18start rising. But it really is a story that manufacturers have done

1:55:18 > 1:55:21well. The question is what the new year will bring as far as the

1:55:21 > 1:55:24economy is concerned and whether the really important service sector,

1:55:24 > 1:55:29accounting for about three quarters of our economy, whether it can do as

1:55:29 > 1:55:32well as manufacturing. But pretty impressive seeing how these things

1:55:32 > 1:55:36are made. Hundreds of these things roll-out of this factory and are

1:55:36 > 1:55:41sold right around the world. I will show you more later.

1:55:41 > 1:55:46Is a BBC correspondent allowed to sit on the bike?

1:55:46 > 1:55:51Yes, but there is a way to get on it. You will have to bear with me.

1:55:51 > 1:55:56I've got all of my cables caught up. I have to swing my leg over. I'm not

1:55:56 > 1:56:04going to hit Wendy, the camerawoman. There we go. Do you think I suit it

1:56:04 > 1:56:08for size? It is probably the only thing that will fit me in this

1:56:08 > 1:56:09place. It works! See you later.

1:56:09 > 1:56:17That is a good look.

1:56:17 > 1:56:25Still to come this morning:

1:56:25 > 1:56:29It has been 20 years since Craig David Chaytor fame and he is now

1:56:29 > 1:59:52back with a new album and he will be talking to

1:59:52 > 1:59:53in half an hour.

1:59:53 > 1:59:54Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

2:00:15 > 2:00:18Hello this is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt.

2:00:18 > 2:00:23Donald Trump says he's prepared to apologise for retweeting

2:00:23 > 2:00:26racist videos from a far right British Group

2:00:26 > 2:00:31His comments comes he arrives in Switzerland to address

2:00:31 > 2:00:34world leaders and confirms talks are under way for a trip to the UK

2:00:34 > 2:00:37in the second half of the year.

2:00:44 > 2:00:48Good morning it's Friday 26th January.

2:00:48 > 2:00:51Also this morning -

2:00:51 > 2:00:54Stop prescribing antibiotics for sore throats -

2:00:54 > 2:01:00the NHS medicines watchdog tells doctors to use paracetamol instead.

2:01:00 > 2:01:03Four of the BBC's leading male news

2:01:03 > 2:01:06presenters agree to take salary cuts, following revelations

2:01:06 > 2:01:12about gender pay inequality.

2:01:12 > 2:01:16After Tessa Jowell's powerful testimony about suffering from brain

2:01:16 > 2:01:20cancer yesterday we reflect on the emotional atmosphere at Westminster

2:01:20 > 2:01:25with someone who was there. Good morning, the weak pound has been

2:01:25 > 2:01:29good news for UK manufacturers this year. It makes their goods cheaper

2:01:29 > 2:01:33overseas, but what about the rest of the economy? We get the official

2:01:33 > 2:01:40growth forecast later. I will have the details.

2:01:40 > 2:01:42In sport, one of the worst starts ever for England's cricketers.

2:01:42 > 2:01:45They lost their first five wickets for just eight runs,

2:01:45 > 2:01:47against Australia, in Adelaide in their latest one

2:01:47 > 2:01:48day international.

2:01:48 > 2:01:51They have recovered. Sarah has the weather.

2:01:51 > 2:01:54Good morning, pretty chilly start this morning, we have some fog which

2:01:54 > 2:01:59should clear and many of us will seize on Blue Sky M Sunshine. I'll

2:01:59 > 2:02:03bring you all of the details in about 15 minutes.

2:02:03 > 2:02:12We will see you then, Sarah. -- sees some blue skies.

2:02:12 > 2:02:13Good morning.

2:02:13 > 2:02:14First, our main story.

2:02:14 > 2:02:17Donald Trump has said he is prepared to apologise for retweeting racist

2:02:17 > 2:02:18comments from a far right British group.

2:02:18 > 2:02:21It comes as Downing Street confirmed that the American President

2:02:21 > 2:02:24will come to the UK later this year for a scaled-down working

2:02:24 > 2:02:26trip, without the pomp and ceremony of a state visit.

2:02:26 > 2:02:28The confirmation came at the end of a meeting

2:02:28 > 2:02:30between the President and Theresa May in Davos,

2:02:30 > 2:02:33in which Mr Trump said he and the Prime Minister

2:02:33 > 2:02:35were "on the same wavelength in every respect".

2:02:35 > 2:02:36In an interview with ITV, the President talked

2:02:36 > 2:02:38about his relationship with The UK.

2:02:38 > 2:02:39about his relationship with the UK.

2:02:39 > 2:02:42I don't want to cause any difficulty for your country, that I can tell

2:02:42 > 2:02:46you.Can I get an apology out of you for the retweets? It would go a long

2:02:46 > 2:02:53way.If you're telling me there are horrible racist people.Yeah.I

2:02:53 > 2:02:55would certainly apologise if you'd like me to do that. I know nothing

2:02:55 > 2:03:01about that.Would you disavow yourself of people like that?You're

2:03:01 > 2:03:03telling me about these people because I know nothing about these

2:03:03 > 2:03:06people.

2:03:06 > 2:03:08President Trump - The Piers Morgan Interview airs this

2:03:08 > 2:03:10Sunday, the 28th January, at 10pm on ITV1.

2:03:10 > 2:03:13Later today, Mr Trump will adddress world leaders where he's

2:03:13 > 2:03:16expected to reinforce his America First economic approach.

2:03:16 > 2:03:26Simon Jack joins us from Davos. Good morning, Simon.It is chilly, there,

2:03:26 > 2:03:29isn't it? He got a fairly warm reception considering there were a

2:03:29 > 2:03:35few noses he put out of joint before arriving.Definitely true. It set up

2:03:35 > 2:03:39earlier in the week that everyone would be booing Donald Trump, but

2:03:39 > 2:03:41that wasn't the case, if you look at the stock market and world growth

2:03:41 > 2:03:45people think economic lead the world is doing pretty well, in the view of

2:03:45 > 2:03:48Piers Morgan, quite interesting. He thinks he's the least racist person

2:03:48 > 2:03:53in the world, he thinks written first, that far right group, is a

2:03:53 > 2:03:57bit like his own programme of America first, which is what he sees

2:03:57 > 2:04:01as a very reasonable way to proceed. He's going to address the conference

2:04:01 > 2:04:05later today and save America's leading the way, economic growth is

2:04:05 > 2:04:09very good here, world growth is very good. I think today will be a

2:04:09 > 2:04:13victory lap where he will point to great economic news and safe isn't

2:04:13 > 2:04:21what I have done great? -- and say isn't what I have done great?Simon

2:04:21 > 2:04:23Jack in Davos.

2:04:23 > 2:04:25There's dispute at the heart of the Government this morning,

2:04:25 > 2:04:28after Downing Street gave a public rebuke to comments made

2:04:28 > 2:04:29by the Chancellor Philip Hammond in Davos.

2:04:29 > 2:04:32It comes as the Brexit Secretary, David Davis, prepares to set

2:04:32 > 2:04:35out his vision for the next stage of talks about a transition

2:04:35 > 2:04:36period later today.

2:04:36 > 2:04:39Yesterday, Mr Hammond said he hoped the UK and EU economies will only

2:04:39 > 2:04:40move "very modestly" apart after Brexit.

2:04:40 > 2:04:45To which a No 10 spokesperson has said that government plans

2:04:45 > 2:04:50for Brexit "could not be described as very modest changes."

2:04:50 > 2:04:52Let's talk about this more with our Political

2:04:52 > 2:05:00Correspondent Leila Nathoo, who joins us now from Westminster.

2:05:01 > 2:05:03So, it's a he says, we say situation, which has ramifications

2:05:03 > 2:05:08about what the big message is, doesn't it?Yeah, I think there has

2:05:08 > 2:05:11been a kind of truce, if you like, in the Cabinet over the Brexit

2:05:11 > 2:05:14position. We know there is a wide range of opinion among senior

2:05:14 > 2:05:18ministers about what they want Brexit a lot like. It is no secret

2:05:18 > 2:05:22Philip Hammond was on the remaining side of the argument and advocates a

2:05:22 > 2:05:27close relationship with the EU after Brexit. But it's telling that on the

2:05:27 > 2:05:30same day we have Philip Hammond making those comments we have the

2:05:30 > 2:05:33other side of the spectrum of the Tory party Jacob Rees-Mogg,

2:05:33 > 2:05:37prominent backbencher and a leader of the group of Tory Eurosceptic

2:05:37 > 2:05:40MPs, also strongly criticising the government for a lack of clarity and

2:05:40 > 2:05:44a lack of vision on Brexit, saying there needs to be a stronger message

2:05:44 > 2:05:48and saying the EU is dictating all the terms and talking about the risk

2:05:48 > 2:05:52of squandering the benefits of Brexit as he sees it. We see this

2:05:52 > 2:05:56periodic eruption of a difference of opinion with the government, and

2:05:56 > 2:05:59it's very clear that at this stage in their David Davis today will make

2:05:59 > 2:06:03a speech about what he wants to see of the transition period, it is

2:06:03 > 2:06:06clear that at home there is still no consensus about what the final

2:06:06 > 2:06:10Brexit end-stage will look like. Leila Nathoo, for the moment, thank

2:06:10 > 2:06:11you.

2:06:11 > 2:06:13Most sore throats should be treated with paracetamol

2:06:13 > 2:06:15rather than antibiotics, according to new guidance

2:06:15 > 2:06:17from the NHS medicines watchdog.

2:06:17 > 2:06:20The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence - Nice -

2:06:20 > 2:06:23says the drugs are prescribed in 60% of cases, despite being

2:06:23 > 2:06:24mostly ineffective.

2:06:24 > 2:06:27Here's our Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes.

2:06:27 > 2:06:29The overuse of antibiotics is leading to the development

2:06:29 > 2:06:33of bacteria resistant to these life-saving drugs.

2:06:33 > 2:06:39Leading health experts warn this poses a serious threat to the UK.

2:06:39 > 2:06:44If we lose the ability to fight infection, common medical procedures

2:06:44 > 2:06:48such as Cesarean sections and cancer treatments could become too risky.

2:06:48 > 2:06:51Prescribing antibiotics to treat a sore throat is a prime example

2:06:51 > 2:06:55of the way they can be misused.

2:06:55 > 2:06:59Sore throats account for nearly one in four of GP appointments in the UK

2:06:59 > 2:07:01related to infections of the lungs and airways.

2:07:01 > 2:07:04Research suggests that in 60% of those cases,

2:07:04 > 2:07:07antibiotics are prescribed.

2:07:07 > 2:07:10But most sore throats are caused by a viral infection,

2:07:10 > 2:07:14on which antibiotics will have no effect.

2:07:14 > 2:07:21We have become a bit, umm, acclimatised to thinking

2:07:21 > 2:07:25that we need an antibiotic whenever we have got something wrong with us.

2:07:25 > 2:07:28And we don't.

2:07:28 > 2:07:31We just have to be re-educated, I suppose, to preserve the use

2:07:31 > 2:07:34of antibiotics for really serious infections.

2:07:34 > 2:07:42The latest advice from the NHS Medicines Watchdog reminds doctors

2:07:43 > 2:07:46and nurses that most sore throats will get better within a week,

2:07:46 > 2:07:48and only the most serious bacterial infections need antibiotics.

2:07:48 > 2:07:50Most patients are best advised to drink plenty of fluids,

2:07:50 > 2:07:53and to take paracetamol or Ibuprofen to help with pain relief.

2:07:53 > 2:08:01Dominic Hughes, BBC News.

2:08:06 > 2:08:09Several of the BBC's leading male news presenters and journalists have

2:08:09 > 2:08:11agreed to take salary cuts, following revelations about gender

2:08:11 > 2:08:13pay inequality at the corporation.

2:08:13 > 2:08:19Last year revelations about the pay for on-air talent earning more

2:08:19 > 2:08:21than £150,000 prompted calls for salaries to be reviewed.

2:08:21 > 2:08:24An independent report on the issue of pay inequality at the BBC is due

2:08:24 > 2:08:28to be published next week.

2:08:28 > 2:08:33Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson said Russia is drawing up plans to

2:08:33 > 2:08:44cripple thousands of people in the UK. He says Russia is spying on the

2:08:44 > 2:08:45UK to spot vulnerabilities.

2:08:45 > 2:08:47Businesses including Jamie Oliver's Italian restuarants,

2:08:47 > 2:08:49Hilton Hotels and the shopping channel QVC have all stopped selling

2:08:49 > 2:08:51some steak products, after the company that

2:08:51 > 2:08:52supplied them was placed under investigation

2:08:52 > 2:08:54by the Food Standards Agency.

2:08:54 > 2:08:57Russel Hume, which also supplies meat

2:08:57 > 2:09:00to the Wetherspoon's pub chain, said there has never been any

2:09:00 > 2:09:02suggestion that its products caused illness and that the recall

2:09:02 > 2:09:10was a "precautionary measure because of mislabelling".

2:09:10 > 2:09:14More than 40 people have died after a fire in hospital in South Korea.

2:09:14 > 2:09:18It was thought to have started in the emergency room of the building

2:09:18 > 2:09:23in the south-east of the country. Around 100 patients were inside at

2:09:23 > 2:09:27the time.

2:09:27 > 2:09:29The number of pot-hole related breakdowns on British roads

2:09:29 > 2:09:32is rising, with the RAC blaming bad weather and a lack of investment.

2:09:32 > 2:09:35Councils say they would need to triple their road repair

2:09:35 > 2:09:36budgets to tackle a vast backlog of potholes.

2:09:36 > 2:09:41Our Transport correspondent Victoria Fritz has more.

2:09:41 > 2:09:43They can cost hundreds of pounds' worth of damage

2:09:43 > 2:09:48and although councils fill in two million potholes

2:09:48 > 2:09:51a year, it seems like Britain's holes are crumbling faster they then

2:09:51 > 2:09:52can be repaired.

2:09:52 > 2:09:54It don't take a lot to damage a car.

2:09:54 > 2:09:56You try to avoid them, you can't.

2:09:56 > 2:10:01You've only got to drive around this borough and you'll find

2:10:01 > 2:10:02loads everywhere.

2:10:02 > 2:10:05I take my children to school and come across quite a few potholes

2:10:05 > 2:10:07on the way, which is a bit dangerous with the car.

2:10:07 > 2:10:11It seems like after the horrible weather when you have ice or really

2:10:11 > 2:10:12cold weather, they all we seem to appear.

2:10:12 > 2:10:14Normally potholes develop after wet and cold weather,

2:10:14 > 2:10:17but the RAC says it's seeing the number of breakdowns caused

2:10:17 > 2:10:20by driving in poor roads increase, regardless of the season.
