£700 million to settle allegations of bribery and corruption. They re quite naughty, rebellious books, i suppose. There are a lot of naughty, rebellious children around.

And coming up in Sportsday On Bbc News andy murray gets off to a winning start in melbourne as the world number one sets his sights on the first tennis major of the year, the australian open. Good evening. Theresa may has been finalising her long awaited statement on the governments ambitions for the forthcoming talks on leaving the European Union. In tomorrows speech the Prime Ministers expected to spell out what kind of brexit deal she wants, and the future trading relationship with the eu. Donald trump says his promise to negotiate an early trade deal between america and the uk should strengthen mrs mays hand. 0ur Political EditorLaura Kuenssberg reports on what we might expect, based on the evidence so far. Heard the one about leaving the European Union . Brexit means brexit. Whats that again . Brexit means brexit. And in case you hadnt heard. Brexit means brexit. But despite what sounds like meaningless platitudes, the Big Decisions on the European Union have been obvious since june. There is clearly no mandate for a deal that involves accepting the Free Movement of people as it has worked hitherto. Unlimited eu immigration wont stay, nor the power of european judges. 0urjudges, sitting not in luxembourg, but in courts across the land. Without them in charge, it means well be out of the Single Market. People talk in terms as if somehow we are leaving the eu but we still want to kind of keep bits of membership of the eu. We are leaving, we are coming out. And shes even dressed up to make plain how Doing Business Outside Europe will be more and more important. And a thumbs up for brexit from the man who in 91 hours will be the most powerful in the world. Promises of a quick trade deal given to one of the biggest brexit backers. Former minister, sometimes reporter michael gove. Countries want their own identity. And the uk wanted its own identity. But i do believe this, if they hadnt been forced to take in all of the refugees, so many, with all the problems that it entails, i think that you wouldnt have a brexit. Good cheer for brexiteers ahead of the Prime Ministers speech. Its very good news that the United States of america wants to do a good Free Trade Deal with us and wants to do it very fast, and its great to hear that from president elect donald trump. The Prime Minister may delight them, ready tomorrow to make plain whats been implied for some time. Were going to have the European Court ofjustice no longer over ruling our laws. We are also going to be outside the Single Market so we can control our own borders. And probably outside the Customs Union so that we can negotiate our own trade deals with the rest of the world. This is the most crucial set of choices any Prime Minister has made for years. And although the fundamentals were clear before she moved in, theres been precious little detail in public. But theresa mays opponents fear shell disappoint because shes juggling her party as well as the public. Partly because shes had to overcompensate, as a former remainer, to prove herself to her own party. Partly because she has no mandate of her own, she has not been elected by anybody, so shes not in a very strong position. But partly because shes chosen, really, only to listen to the 52 of people who voted for brexit, and not the almost half of the remaining part of the voting public voted for a different future. Some people might say that people on your side of the argument havent listened to people on the other side for too long and thats why the vote went the way it did. I accept that unless something dramatic happens or theres a huge change in public opinion, brexit is likely to occur. What i do not accept is that the brexiteers have a mandate on how to deliver brexit. Tomorrow matters. Theresa may will tell us and them, the other european countries, more about her decisions that will Shape Britain for decades to come. Her political hope, she and the country are not on their way to isolation. Laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster.

Well come tojump in a moment. What oui well come tojump in a moment. What our Business Leaders saying about their hopes, ambitions, even fears before tomorrows speech . their hopes, ambitions, even fears before tomorrows speech . I think that the writing has been on the wall for some time that we are leaving the Single Market. What is new is that we are more than likely to leave the Customs Union which is a perimeter around europe which governs what stuff comes in but then things can move freely within so you dont have to open every palate and inspect every lorry load. Looks and well be leaving that to make the most of trade deals around the world. They are holding more cards than you thought, you had donald trump endorsing the uk approach, senior eu negotiators admitting it would be very disruptive for the eu if the uk was to leave on bad terms. Even mild mannered Philip Hammond has said he might take the gloves off and lower taxes if we didnt get a good deal. All of that has added to their confidence that they can thrash out a good deal. What is being said here is that we dont wa nt to being said here is that we dont want to be overconfident here, we dont want to get to a position where we thought we were going to get a good deal and did not in fact get a good deal and did not in fact get one and fall onto wto regulations which means tariffs, and businesses worry could damage trade. Many thanks. John, i said this speech was long awaited, how much detail are we likely to get . Theresa may is being egged on by a chorus of enthusiastic brexiteers in her party, in the press, some in her cabinet to promise as clean a break as one can imagine from all eu obligations and ties. Theresa may is, above all else, a pragmatist. He has not played her cards as closely as she has done to tip them now. She is not an ideological committed brexiteer. She will be clear on driving as hard bargain as she has two to achieve laws made here in britain by british lawmakers and e Nforced Britain by british lawmakers and e nfo rce d by britain by british lawmakers and enforced by british judges and within borders managed by an Immigration Policy made in britain. There are expected to be maybe a dozen points she will touch on for the coming negotiations in the week ahead. Will that satisfy the clamour for more clarity . Not much chance of that. Will it give us a clear idea of where we end up . Even less chance. That will be up to long negotiations in many months ahead and nobody knows the details of that yet. Thank you both. Some of europes political leaders have hit back at donald trump after he accused Chancellor Merkel Of Making A catastrophic decision to accept hundreds of thousands of migrants, people he called illegals. He also threatened high tariffs on german car imports. Mrs merkel responded by saying that europe would continue to fight for its own identity. And president hollande of france said europe did not need outside advice, as our Diplomatic CorrespondentJames Robbins reports. They have rehearsed the inauguration in washington with a stand in for president trump, but no one knows quite what to expect at fridays ceremony, still less what his first 100 days could bring. The president elect continues to amaze, now accusing germanys chancellor merkel, more than 11 years in office, of a very catastrophic mistake with her open doors approach to migrants. I think its not good, i think it was a big mistake for germany. Germanys chancellor did not return fire, except to argue that genuine refugees cannot be sacrificed in the fight against terrorism. Translation i would separate this from the task of helping refugees. The majority of refugees have left syria because of their oppression by assad. And heres the latest trump on president putin. We can make good deals with russia, he says. One good deal could involve reducing both sides nuclear arsenals, but at what cost . Some fear mr trump easing sanctions against russia. Theres talk of an early summit in icelands capital echoing the Famous Reykjavik encounter between reagan and gorbachev 30 years ago. That summit may have failed but it did open the way for eventual arms reduction. Now the man tipped as trumps pic for ambassador to the eu says history can be repeated. Trumps pic for ambassador to the eu says history can be repeatedlj think says history can be repeated. think there will be a Summit In Rakitic which is quite interesting, not unlike the summit between reagan and gorbachev some decades ago where people were equally pessimistic and yet what resulted . Frankly the end of the cold war. And we need an end to this cold war. Donald trump is still calling the Western Military Alliance of nato obsolete, so what could that mean for the new deployment of heavy armour to poland to deter any russian threat . Could it be reversed . To deter any russian threat . Could it be reversed . Francois hollande expressed his frustration. Translation europe will already be ready to pursue transatlantic operation. Europe does not need outside advice to tell it what it has to do. Those staging the inauguration may be anxious to learn lessons from their rehearsals but signs are World Leaders remain worried about the real president trump. How will he translate sometimes baffling words into action . China has also reacted strongly to mr trumps latest pronouncements. State media in beijing said china would take off the gloves and take strong action if mr trump continued to provoke beijing over taiwan. Mr trump broke with decades of precedent last month by taking a Telephone Call from the taiwanese president , a move that angered beijing, which regards taiwan as part of china. Our Correspondentjohn Sudworth reports from beijing. Not everyone in china is taking donald trump too seriously. His inauguration this week comes just ahead of the Chinese New Year of the rooster. And this factory is making, well, giant trump lookalike chicken balloons. The orders are flowing in, we can barely cope, the boss tells me. But increasingly mr trump is becoming a target of anger. Rather than a figure of fun. Mock ups of taiwanese ships provide shooting practice at this Chinese Military museum. Just across the taiwan strait. While us president s have long avoided challenging beijings claim to sovereignty, the so called one china policy, mr trump says he might. Chinas military, especially our navy, is growing stronger, we dont fear us provocation, this man tells me. We want peace, but if they cross our red line we have to take measures, this woman agrees. Last week, in a move seen by some as intended to make that very point, china sent its Aircraft Carrier through the taiwan strait. And Chinas Communist Party run newspapers have issued a stark warning, telling mr trump that if he changes us policy, beijing will have no choice but to take off the gloves, and that china will mercilessly combat those who advocate taiwans independence. These Chinese Workers make luxury marble products for the us market. For them, the biggest fear is not rising military tension, but a trade war. Their American Boss believes mr trumps threatened tariffs will do nothing to change the basic market reality. Hiring one worker in the states, that could hire five to six in china. So moving our business to the states would impinge into our margins which would then reflect on consumer pricing. And it would be very difficult to run a business that way. The world is about to find out whether one of the most vital and complex bilateral relationships is to undergo a profound change. Before his election, china could simply dismiss Donald Trumps rhetoric as the overinflated blast of the campaign trail. Not any more. And china is making it increasingly clear that while it has a lot to lose, so, too, does america and the wider world. John sudworth, bbc news, beijing. Our North America editor jon sopel is in washington. This latest interview, what does it tell us, do you think, about mr trumps likely approach to Foreign Policy . I think it tells us there is not an overarching philosophy. In the bush blair era we had liberalist interventionism and some have posed trump as an isolationist but i dont think thats right. As everything with trouble you have to view him as a businessman and deal maker. If you look at the transcript of the interview he gave, it is peppered with remarks im going to deal with this one, we are going to do a deal with that one and he talks about cabinet choices, what makes them good . They are good deal makers, he wa nts to good . They are good deal makers, he wants to do a deal with Britain On Trade and a deal with nato Companies Getting them to spend more, deals with china, russia and The Middle East and thats the way he thinks. The worry of the Diplomatic Immunity in washington is if you do one deal it has a consequence somewhere else. Its like three dimensional chess. You cant move one piece without the other pieces on the board being affected. There is a feeling donald trump doesnt get that. That said, Donald Trumps focus come if he can help it, is not to be on international affairs, it is to focus on us issues, jobs, health care. Thats where he wants the first few months of his administration to focus on. Jon sopel administration to focus on. Jon sopel, thank you, with the latest from washington. The inquests into the deaths of 30 british tourists who were killed in tunisia 18 months ago have started in london. They were shot dead by a gunman at a beach resort near sousse. It was the deadliest Terror Attack on britons since thejuly 7th bombings in london in 2005. The inquest has been told that some of the victims might still be alive, had local Security Forces acted more quickly. Our correspondent Daniela Relph reports. For them, the inquests matter so much. The families of those killed, still looking for answers. As the hearing began, the names of those who died were read out followed by a minutes silence. The inquest heard they had needlessly lost their lives. Shouting mobile phone footage shows the chaos and confusion during the attacks. The families watched it in court. Listening to the sound of gunfire and the sense of panic. Gunfire the gunman was seifeddine rezgui, a 23 year old who was eventually shot dead by the Security Forces. But hed been intent on killing tourists. Cctv footage has traced his movements that day. An unknown person dropped off by car near the hotel. As he walked away he hid his gun beneath a parasol under his arm. The sounds of gunfire were heard, those On The Beach Run for their lives, confused about what was happening. On the beach was rezgui, shooting systematically at western tourists. He can then be seen inside the hotel, roaming around, looking for his next victims. At no point do the police or Security Guards appear to try to stop him. Samantha leek qc, counsel to the inquests, referred to a statement from a tunisian witness. She told the court he said the Security Units that should have intervened deliberately and unjustifiably slowed down to delay their arrival at the hotel. They had the ability to put an end to the attack before the police arrived. This is a map of the gunmans movements put together by a British Police team. The red arrow indicates where rezgui started shooting may the sun lounges before moving to the terrace and outdoor pool area and into the hotel. He killed everywhere he went. This 3 d graphic was also shown to the inquest. The name and photo of each victim marks the place where they were attacked. There was also evidence today from a senior diplomat at the foreign office. She said at the time of the killings tunisia was ranked as high risk with attacks possible. But at that stage british tourists were not advised to avoid the country altogether. It has been a difficult day for the families. But they want to know how their loved ones came to die in such a horrifying wa
