This weekend. It will get to a frosty start, below freezing for some. By the end of the weekend, much milder. Along the way, some rain and some sunshine. There is a bit of rain out there today, outbreaks of rain continuing to work across scotland. A bit of snow over the highest round here. Some pretty hefty showers working across parts of england and wales, perhaps the odd flash of lightning and the odd rumble of thunder that has all this wet weather swelling away. Temperatures will fall away through the afternoon. But Northern Ireland are having a decent day. Through this evening, the skies were clear out and the winds will fall light.

There is your frosty start to the weekend underneath this ridge of high pressure. But we see a Frontal System pushing in from the west. Cloud and rain with that, and as it moves its way in during the day on saturday, this will be
Through an agreed route through the black sea, it then announces a humanitarian corridor without any kind of acknowledgement from russia, which has continued to target commercial vessels.

And when parties have to report it. This is one of the many problems that we have in our system. It appears to be born out of historical reasons rather than anything else. We do have, for what is supposed to be a very transparent system, quite a complicated one in which there are various different registers updated at various different points. The electoral commissions register is only updated every quarter and i think this story has sort of renewed questions about whether thats really appropriate in this day and age when websites can be updated at the drop of a hat. That was the conservative Party Response so far when it came to frank hester s donations, that they have reported everything that needed to be reported in the public sphere.
