Time for the headlines at 11 30pm. Time for the weather for the week ahead with lucy. Hello there. It looks like we will see a spell of Stormy Weather through the second half of the weekend. They could cause some damage and disruption. Before that though its a fairly calm and settle picture. Friday looks like it will be largely dry although a little windier in the west than it was on thursday. Here is the reason why. High pressure Still Holding on as we move into friday, although these weather fronts out was the worst will bring more in the way of cloud and eventually some rain. So for friday chilly start for many. There will be a patch of mist and fog that will be a patch of mist and fog that will clear quite quickly. Good spells of sunshine. Cloudy in the west. The cloud they can offer the odd spot of rain or drizzle. Temperature similar to thursday, 6 10 degrees celsius. As we move towards the weekend, out towards the atla ntic towards the weekend, out towards the atlantic a string of weather fronts and low pressure will bring some very wet and windy weather at times. We start the weekend though with good spells of sunshine for many away from the south east, where it will be cloudier. Perhaps some outbreaks of rain first thing. That was will tend to strengthen through the day on saturday. In the north and west, gales, as you can see on the map, some heavy, persistent rain putting in later, a falling snow over high ground. Thats a sign of things to come through the second half of the weekend. Saturday night into sunday, initially the first band of rain pushes through. Into the early hours of storm kheira brings heavy, persistent rain. Look at those isobars on the map. It will turn very windy. So here we are on sunday, outbreaks of rain. Gradually sinking south. Behind that, some blustery showers feeding on. And it is looking very windy. Because the gusts around 70 mph inland. Locally higher in the north and west. We could see some big waves. Temperatures are looking mild for the time of year. That wont be the focus of the weather. The winds
could cause some disruption and some damage. As were staying across your local weather forecast, local radio 01 local weather forecast, local radio or the bbc weather app will keep you up to date. As we move into the start of the week, the storm klister was the east. This blue collar spreading across the map. We will drag in the fresher air mass. For monday it is still looking windy. Monday, essentially a day of sunshine and showers, showers could be wintry in the north, a falling snow particularly across high ground. For parts of scotland, even to lower levels, and take a look at the temperatures, noticeably down on where they were on sunday. Add in the wind and it will feel colder than that. Not a great deal of changes we move into tuesday. Could see blizzard conditions over the high ground of scotland. Continuing to see a rush of showers feeding in from the north and west. In between some sunshine to be had. Temperature similarto some sunshine to be had. Temperature
similar to monday, sitting at around 6 similar to monday, sitting at around 6 eight celsius. As we start the working week we will see the back of storm kheira, but it will remain very windy, feeling cold as well with some showers. Those showers could fall as snow across the northern half of the uk, particularly over heels but also to lower levels in scotland. Then looking further ahead it looks like we will continue to see this strong jet stream brings spells of wet and windy weather in from the west. I think we will start to see the temperatures picking up again as we move towards the weekend. As were staying across your local forecast. Its worth. This is bbc news. Im martine croxall. In a moment a look at what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. First the headlines a special investigation reveals thatjonty bravery, the 17 year old who pleaded guilty to the attempted murder of a six year old boy who was thrown from the balcony of the tate gallery, had warned of his plans a year before he carried them out. A third person in the uk to test positive for coronavirus is a british national. The death toll in china reached more than 600. Scotlands finance secretary, derek mackay resigns on the day of the scottish budget, after sending messages to a 16 year old boy on social media. This is what the and result is. A day after he was acquitted in his impeachment trial, President Trump hits back at the democrats, accusing them of a witch hunt. Welcome to our lookahead to the papers be bringing us tomorrow. With this, madeline grant, from the Daily Telegraph and miatta fahnbulleh, chief executive of the new economics foundation. Also former labour advisor. Many of tomorrows front pages are already in. The Financial Times claims donald trump vented apoplectic fury at the Prime Minister borisjohnson
apoplectic fury at the Prime MinisterBoris Johnson over apoplectic fury at the Prime Minister borisjohnson over huawei. The telegraph lease with the story of the Publics Trust in the police. Demetra reports on the news of a third in the uk being diagnosed with coronavirus as does the guardian. Also looking at the actor revealing her sexuality. Visitors from nine Asian Countries told to isolate. The daily mail has an investigation we reported on, about the teenager who threw a boy from a balcony at the tate modern gallery. We might not be looking at this last story into much depth. Coronavirus kills doctor who tried to warn of a crisis and this is the doctor featured on the
front page, 31 year old dr li wenliang. He was silenced initially from speaking out. He worked in hospital in wuhan. He realised that the condition he was treating was a version of that virus and he tried to warn fellow medics but came under the full force of the chinese state. He was detained and silenced. Reports elsewhere that they even attempted to cover up the timeline of his death. They still even in death have not given him the dignity of that. It is a sign of the extent to which china is covering up the scale of this crisis. At the same time, praise for sharing scale of this crisis. At the same time, praise forsharing dna information about the virus so that teams around the world can try to develop a vaccine. This is two parts
of the way the chinese are dealing with this. Partly because the virus is spreading beyond china. A vaccine that can work on a solution is what they are trying to do, working with other countries to do that. We are iiow other countries to do that. We are now at the stage where we have three cases in the uk, the first case originating outside of china and so there is a sense that it is taking root and growing. 28,000 people infected, the response has been pretty decisive. The response in the uk also, it feels like it is contained but it is incredibly scary. The Chinese Government criticising the uk for overreacting in the meantime the government is
changing the advice. Of course the Chinese Government would claim that other countries are over reacting because they are currently engaged in what looks a wide ranging cover up of the machinery of a totalitarian state. A study from academics in hong kong estimating they are underestimating it tenfold. That is a very worrying. It is a strange contradiction, in a way because they are throwing everything at repressing this. They cover up the detail of the true scale to the world media. I suppose as more cases become obvious in other parts of the world, there will be a way of working out just how world, there will be a way of working outjust how big the problem is, even if we cannot get accurate figures from china. I think so. I
suspect the reason they are so nervous is because what this case of the doctor shows, they were trying to hush it up in december and did not respond as quickly as they needed to and they probably do not have a sense of how big a scale it is. It is all trying to manage some of their failures as well and the big question is how it has spread beyond china. And how possible is it to conceal it in a world of social media . Many commentators initially thought, seeing some harrowing footage coming out of wuhan province. Yes, it would get out. The Scottish Daily mail offers a 16 page unrivalled reporting and analysis with the headline, disgraced. This is very mcharg, on the day due to
present the budget had to resign. They were pretty scathing. It was u na cce pta ble they were pretty scathing. It was unacceptable what he did. I think it isa unacceptable what he did. I think it is a big problem for them because they are on a huge momentum, had a really good general election, the drumbeat for independence is increasing by the moment and then you have Something Like this, a huge scandal. They also have to content with the court case for alex salmond so with the court case for alex salmond so it is hard. It starts raising questions about the integrity and competency of the government. I think that would be Nicola Sturgeons because worry. His judgement described as an abuse of power and predatory behaviour. Extraordinary. He was tipped to be Nicola Sturgeon s successor and i
was before he was due to deliver the budget, this is high drama but it also comes at a time when the snp facing criticism over the handling of domestic issues said the record on nhs and education is pretty woeful and then you add the various sex scandals, this one and the upcoming trial of alex and you have a general veneer of sleaze and decadence even and that suggest the shine might be coming off the snp somewhat. Apoplectic trump vent fury on borisjohnson. Somewhat. Apoplectic trump vent fury on Boris Johnson. Livid somewhat. Apoplectic trump vent fury on borisjohnson. Livid language, it is described as. A strong briefing, they have not minced that words. Livid terms, apoplectic fluid, made their disappointment clear to the uk. The president has spoken to
borisjohnson over the uk. The president has spoken to Boris Johnson over the phone uk. The president has spoken to borisjohnson over the phone and repeatedly Exchange Hard words over his disappointment that the uk is plugging on with the decision to involve huawei in the rollout of the sg involve huawei in the rollout of the 5g network. This is not the only source of discontent. Britain has broken from the us way of strategic thinking, our response to iran was also closer to the eu. All of this is leading to a situation we are sending out mixed messages to our closest allies. At a time when we are supposed to be striking a post brexit trade deals. It gives an indication of how difficult the trade deal is going to be. The American Administration is clearly about america first. They are strong trading partner. And you also have donald trump, who is a little bit
erratic, quite emotional and takes things quite personally so it does make quite a hard counterpart in these negotiations but there is a bigger question for the uk which as we try and forge away in the world and decide where our alliances are and decide where our alliances are and it is interesting and ironic that some of the big issues emerging, we are aligning ourselves much closer to the European Union than the us and that is the irony of brexit. The huawei decision, many people framing it as though we should do what america tells us to because we are that lapdog i do not think that is true. It has a great weight in the defence establishment and this country and many strategic allies, countries like germany, australia, new zealand, have already ruled out any huawei involvement. The independent, jeremy hunt calls into enquiry into Maternity Care in
the nhs. The former Health Secretary who is now chair of a select committee. The enquiry, i think is completely welcomed and actually the cases of terrible care and, i think for every mother who has been through Maternity Services, your heart stops because it can be of us and the cases where mothers have been put at risk, babies have been put at risk because of improper care is wiring and the enquiry is completely right, trying to understand where the failure is. Out of this will come back to pressure on the nhs, pressure on Maternity Services and the perennial question, and its best the nhs provides Great Service but it is usually underfunded. We have to find a way of reconciling that. We have a
shortage of it was an do not train a midwife overnight, takes years. Shortage of it was an do not train a midwife overnight, takes yearslj also midwife overnight, takes years. also think that there is a possibility this report may somewhat change. Not allowed to criticise the nhs in this country, it is something of a National Religion but the tide is beginning to turn in some ways. People are looking at the standard of care they are getting and they see a greater proportion of the public purse will be devoted to the public purse will be devoted to the nhs and if the quality does not continue to improve and you keep getting the scandals of poor people will start to ask questions about the nhs from which is different to other countries. Lets look at the telegraph. Bank customers are paying £100 million just to access their cash. It is
sometimes quite tough to find a free atm, isnt it . Yes, it is difficult. It sometimes feels that your sense of community has changed because the place you normally get money from has disappeared. And there isnt one for another couple of miles. I think was happened here is cash machines are now charging uses morph withdrawals because banks have cut the amount they have paid the companies for the atms. They have made up the shortfall by oh of adjudging the consumer. I suppose we would have to expect more of this living in an increasingly cashless society. This comes back to rip off written. They are small charges that mount up. And increasingly are putting pressure on peoples day to day finances. And, you know, the big question is what you do about them . At the moment you can get away with charging people, whether its extortionate rates on credit cards or bank charges and there is little recourse. There is a
growing sense in the public that it is unfair. And we have very little control, autonomy, or pushback. Is unfair. And we have very little control, autonomy, or pushbackm you take £20 out and you have to pay nearly £2, what choice do you have . 0f nearly £2, what choice do you have . Of course. Lots more things are becoming cashless and contactless and it has never been easier to pay for things quickly, but im somewhat concerned about the rollout of this technology because there are privacy implications in a World Without cash, if you are forever having to tap on your credit card and details. There are reasons that go beyond mere convenience why we should be somewhat concerned about this. And there are some people who only use cash still. They know it is difficult for people to believe. Its true. I know one of them. My mum. City am. Wife warns ofjob losses atjohn lewis. This is the new chair of the partnership, sharon
wyatt shannon white, formerly of ofcom. She is very impressive. This is an interesting story. John lewis has been the success story. It is an Employee Owned model where everyone who works in the company has a stake in the company. It has been really, really successful. A lot of the evidence suggests the fact that workers have a stake means that the companies tend to be more productive, better worker retention, more profitable and resilient. And its really, really sad, and probably indicative of how tough it is out there in the retail market, thatjohn lewis is going through a tough time and have to make big and difficult decisions. If you think about the number of household names we have lost out of the Retail Sector, there is a slow crisis. It is in part because of Consumer Confidence but in part because of the effect of online and Online Shopping and the fact that it is not a level playing field. At some point we are going to have to confront what it means for high and retail
areas and what it is that consumers want. What we want and particularly difficult for Department Stores that are trying to be all things to all people. Debenhams has struggled to. Exactly. It reminds me, mine last trip of debenhams reminded me of going to woolworths when it was still open and you would get everything there, youd get raises, action men, crayons, but it didnt seem to be all things to all people, it had no particular identity. I wouldnt sayjohn it had no particular identity. I wouldnt say john lewis it had no particular identity. I wouldnt sayjohn lewis is guilty of that. It has been so much money into its Advertising Campaigns and it has a strong brand identity. The fact it has had a disappointing result this quarter bodes badly for the rest of the Retail Sector as well. Lets look at the daily express family. Andrew refuses honour for sake of queen. He was due to be offered a promotion to admiral because of his impending 60th that they on the 19th of february, but he has turned it
down for now. Hes turned it down. They would be very surprised if he did take up the role in the future. I think actually the speed with which Prince Andrew following that disastrous interview with Emily Maitlis on newsnight recently was just extraordinary. We sometimes hear that the conservative party is quite good at blurting out bad leaders, is quite restless like that. The royal family leaders, is quite restless like that. The royalfamily acted incredibly quickly to cut him out of all these functions because they sensed that was not compatible with public opinion. There is another story in the times, i think, that talks about, didnt realise this, but it is customary to ring bells for the queens children on their that they in various churches around the country and are not going to do that. But Westminster Abbey is. Buckingham palace press officers issued the following by commencing the duke of york would be in line for a military promotion on his 60th birthday, following the decision by his Royal Highness to step back from
public duties for the foreseeable future he has asked the ministry of defence of the promotion may be deferred until such time as he returns to public duty, assuming he does. I think the scandal isnt going to go away, questions about andrews role in what he did not going to go away. This will be a difficult one for the royal family. In my view, i think he has to step out of public life completely and permanently. There is a question about how thats resolved in the courts in terms of the case itself. I dont think he has the trust and the confidence of the public to play that sort of a role and it would make it very difficult for the royal family if they try to take it forward.
