BBCNEWS BBC News At Five January 19, 2017

She said in the eyes of many, the wealthy appeared to be playing by a different set of rules and extremists were seeking to exploit these fears. Addressing leaders at the World Economic forum in davos, swizerland, the Prime Minister said the uk was facing a period of momentous change and must forge a new role in the world. Our Business Editor simonjack has the story. Theresa may stepped out to face the global elite she has been so scathing about. An audience she acknowledged was still struggling to understand the referendum result. I know that this, and the other reasons britain took such a decision, is not always well understood internationally. Particularly among our friends and allies in europe. Some of our European Partners feel that we have turned our back on them, and i know that many fear what our decision means for the future of the eu itself. But she reassured them it was about taking back control rather than turning our back and said the uk remained a faithful partner. Britain will always be open for business and open to investment in infrastructure, open to businesses, open to those who want to buy our goods and services, and open to businesses. Breaking straight afterwards, the dutch Prime Minister insisted this there would be a cost for leaving. The uk is making a choice, to control migration, and they are paying a huge price, the economic welfare of the uk will be impacted negatively, they will be leaving the biggest market in the world. After hsbc and ubs announced jobs will be leaving the uk, better news today from barclays. I think the uk will continue to be the financial lungs for europe. We may have to move certain activities and we may have to change the legal structure that we use to operate in europe but it will be at the margin and will be manageable. She saved her sternest language for business. At the same time as promoting this openness, we must heed the underlying feeling that there are some companies, particularly those with a global reach, who are playing by a different set of rules to ordinary working people. And so it is essential for business to demonstrate leadership. Did the audience get the message . Business leaders i speak to really do understand that not everybody gets the benefit of globalisation in a practical sense or an understandable sense, but i sense a real determination to fix that. She made it clear that the government will intervene to improve behaviour if necessary, a hint, perhaps, of what we get from her industrial strategy unveiled next week. A short while ago our economics editor kamal ahmed spoke to the Prime Minister at the World Economic forum in davos, where he started by asking theresa may what she thought of the decision by large banks to move thousands ofjobs out of the city and across to the continent. Is what i have described in my speeches i have spoken about brexit and actually overambition as britain, our ambition for a Global Britain, our ambition for a Global Britain, notjust britain, our ambition for a Global Britain, not just with britain, our ambition for a Global Britain, notjust with a good Free Trade Agreement but is trading around the world, and we have seen a number of countries that want to do Trade Agreements with us and today the australians have confirmed their commitment for a trade deal with the united kingdom. I want to be ambitious for the uk van damme ambitious for the uk van damme ambitious for the uk van damme ambitious for what we can achieve, trading with the eu and around the world, a truly Global Britain. What have the banks said to you about why theyre moving jobs . have the banks said to you about why theyre moving jobs . I have had positive discussions about benefits from the City Of London and what has brought them to the City Of London and how we can continue to build on that for the future. There are huge benefits for investment in the uk with a fundamentally Strong Economy and the Service Sector that is important to us and valued around the world. I believe a truly Global Britain can bring jobs and prosperity to the uk. britain can bring jobs and prosperity to the uk. I wasjust wondering if you agreed with the Prime Minister of malta, the head of the International Monetary fund, european commissioners who also say, whatever deal britain manages to get with the european rain, it will be poorer economically than what we have at the moment. I think it is in the interests of not just the have at the moment. I think it is in the interests of Notjust The Uk but the interests of Notjust The Uk but the european rain, the 27 countries who will remain, to have a good Trade Agreement with the uk which allows benefits for uk businesses to be trading with an operating within the Single Market, but also for businesses from those 27 countries to be operating within the united kingdom. I believe that is for both oui kingdom. I believe that is for both our benefits and then the Trade Agreement i negotiate i believe we will be able to do that. It will be different, we will not be members of the european rain, but i believe i wa nt the european rain, but i believe i want to build a strong Strategic Partnership with the eu because were not leaving europe. We want to continue to cooperate on security and defence and to get a good Trade Agreement which isnt all our interests. Lets go live to davos. She has had some bad news over the last couple of days, hsbc followed through on their threats seeing if we leave the Single Market they will move 1000 jobs to paris. Ubs have said they will move some jobs, as many as a thousand, but better news from the boss of barclays today. We have had Firm Commitments to move up to 2000, so it is a trickle rather than a flood, but dont be fooled. Some of the big players are making Contingency Plans and Goldman Sachs could move thousands to europe, Russell Coutts jp morgan. Could move thousands to europe, Russell Couttsjp morgan. What could move thousands to europe, Russell Coutts jp morgan. What they are going to do is wait for the fog to clear a little bit. They will see what kind of deal we can get and if she is through to her word and get a decent amount of access to european clients, they would like to stick around. She makes the point mark carne has made. London is the wholesale bank for the whole of europe and it will be very disruptive for them of the accesses to finish, so she has a chance but a lot are hovering around Contingency Plans, apart from hsbc and ubs they arejust plans, apart from hsbc and ubs they are just Contingency Plans. And the notion of a truly global vision, our european leaders buying that . L notion of a truly global vision, our european leaders buying that . A lot of them are still scratching their heads not sure what happened in the uk but they have been shot by a number of things. It is a global elite where the cat has been set among the pigeons, they didnt expect donald trump to become president or the uk to leave the european rain, so globalisation for people here is almost like an article of faith. But as we have seenin article of faith. But as we have seen in america and the uk, a lot of people have said we have seen what globalisation does and we dont like it. We had this stand . Somewhere in the middle. I am all for a globalisation and free trade but you have to clean up your act and if you dont, i am have to clean up your act and if you dont, iam prepared have to clean up your act and if you dont, i am prepared to intervene. A hint of what we may see from her industrial strategy that she gales at the beginning of next week. The Scene Atjoint Base and is on the outskirts of maryland and this is the aircraft that is bringing president elect donald trump from new york, just landed in readiness for the inauguration tomorrow. By this time tomorrow donald trump will have been sworn in as the 44th president. The Inauguration Ceremony will take place on capitol hill and is expected to draw hundreds of of to lee on their telezfision on their teieeision screens event on their Television Screens and other screens around the world. The Transition Team already in place. Hundreds of members of the Transition Team putting together thousands of appointments. They will need to be thousands to get this and tired administration into place. While we look at these images i would like to welcome our guest, the former worldwide Vice President of republicans overseas, now a member of the Transition Team and she is in oui of the Transition Team and she is in our studio of the Transition Team and she is in ourstudio in of the Transition Team and she is in our studio in washington. Thanks for joining us, i know it is a busy time. We will stay with you and see the images in maryland in the hope that we may catch a glimpse of the president elect. Give us a sense of the kind of activity going on behind the kind of activity going on behind the scenes. Tomorrow, they are getting ready for what they expect, up getting ready for what they expect, up to 900,000. In the security area, people who have standing tickets and setting tickets, there will be a quarter of a million people, and they have put 500,000 and two security. 0ne they have put 500,000 and two security. One of the things that came out when you were told you could come is you do not bring any self respect is. They are really very restrictive. Selfie sticks. We are actually feeling comfortable about it. When you say feeling co mforta ble, about it. When you say feeling comfortable, it is an event that is a Landmark Event in the history of the United States and there will be massive interest in the world. What kind of tone do you expect the president to strike when he makes a speech . I actually think it will be a rather down to earth speech. I know that he really wants to bring all sides together and he needs to put a stop to this animosity that is happening with the democrats. I love the british expression, throwing their toys out of the pram. These are leaders and they have a responsibility to represent their people, not just stomp responsibility to represent their people, notjust stomp their feet because they dont like what has happened. Donald trump is very concerned about the inner cities. He really believes. He is focusing on four different policy areas which she will talk about. One is tax reform, mostly for corporations, which we hope companies will read patriot the money over as we lower vat tax. Education. If those in the inner cities level with failing schools he wants to create the opportunity for people to find the right school for their kids. Whether it is vouchers are saving accounts there will be a variety of ways. The military is a very important issue for him, exceedingly important. The other thing i would say is this Infrastructure Bill which will make the democrats very happy because we like to spend money, that is something i would encourage people to follow because one of the other interesting things that happens in the first 100 days of the presidency, historically since 1993, and perhaps nothing has been historical or conventional wisdom, but it is the energy drilling, construction and financial stocks that generally go up in the first 100 days, so for investors i would encourage them to follow the news. We are still on the images as you speak to us because the daughter of the aircraft opened, then it goes again, so we may get a glimpse of donald trump and the family as they emerge from the plane in a few minutes time. You made that set of comments about the democrats and talked about unifying people. There is surely a great duty on the president himself to set an example and maybe abandon the kind of divisive tone he adopted in his campaign. 0k, divisive tone he adopted in his campaign. Ok, the campaign is over and he has one and i agree with you and he has one and i agree with you and he has also had that kind of talking. What i would really love is for 90 days the Liberal Media who absolutely cant stand him can just get him a chance and report things accurately instead of rehashing things from 15, 18 months ago. We are seeing some of the Family Members emerge from the plane, we will stay with you because we are all waiting to see whether the president elect himself emerges because we are having quite a few generations of the family and other relatives emerging from the plane. A us airforce relatives emerging from the plane. A Us Air Force Plane just landed at joint base andrews, not far from washington, dc itself, and this is an air base that will be very familiar in months and years to come for President Trump as he then will be. It is known by the callsign air force one, that is where they are kept. This really is the start of president elect tromps first taste of official transport, an airport closely associated with the sea wall of the presidency itself. You were saying the media needs to forget the campaign and get to grips with this new presidency. If we see him emerging, cani new presidency. If we see him emerging, can i take it from you that you think they will have something new to go on . Can i put it that way, that he will strike a different note because lots of people, not just the different note because lots of people, notjust the Liberal Media, have doubts over whether he is capable of striking a different note . When we say lots of people i really have to wonder because yesterday i was at the airport flying from chicago to ec, and they saidi flying from chicago to ec, and they said i am going to the inauguration, and this is illinois, a very blue state. He said, i dont understand why people are still upset, he won, get on with it and showed respect. Let me stop you. We are now seeing President Elect Trump and his wife. They emerge and are now in sight of power because this time tomorrow, they will be probably on their way to the white house, or at least in a few minutes time, this time tomorrow, 5 20pm london time, that Inauguration Ceremony will be drawing to a close on capitol hill and he will by that time be 7 .

Can i ask you, because g made long time. Can i ask you, because 7 made some remarks in past uqllmadq some remake . the least any different uetumede same lreteetkeih the fleet any different capacity about Donald Trumps state of mental preparedness. Are those remarks that you think now are ones we should forget . Heres the thing, i made the comment for two reasons. I was very about his behaviour but i. About his behaviour but i itrump ut his behaviour but l l l the l l l the assessment take the president ial Assessment Tool use 42 president s, and temperament was such a big issue that nobody wanted to speak about what i wrote because they preferred to argue fit or unfit, good, better, best, rather than the right temperament at the right time and we are all born with a temperament. 0ur behaviour, that is personality, and that comes from Social Environment and upbringing and values. I was exceedingly concerned mostly because he had no puts 16 very established politicians out and he took the nomination and i couldnt figure out why he was not related about it, and then what happened was on august 17, i made the comment on august three, he announced he was changing his staff. Two days later for the first time in his history ever, he ended up time in his history ever, he ended up apologising. He was surrounded by syco p ha nts up apologising. He was surrounded by sycophants who just want to write his coat tails not telling him the truth. What happened was steve bannon and Kelly Anne Conway came in and said guess what, you have a problem. That press conference, he said, i really regret that i have offended me, iwas efifig and mlet l vrfffirrnnlvrlmn he mlet l . l|f|. Lrnnlv. ln n| ll he could change mlet l . l1 . 1. L1r1. 1|. lmn1ll he could change his believe he could change his behaviour and they have to tell you i watched it so closely that i did not even vote until november seven because i really wanted to be sure that these changes really werent going to continue once he took office. I have a great belief in him. Just to underline the point and to be clear with our viewers, you no longer think there is any danger of evidence of him being psychological
