Billion take over of formula one and remove Bernie Ecclestone as Chief Executive, ending his a0 year reign in charge of the sport. A surge in cyber crime pushed the cost of fraud above £1 billion last year. And its getting worse despite attempts to tackle it. Im looking at why and what more needs to be done. And were going to be talking about the happiest children in the world. Studies suggest they live in the netherlands. But what makes them so happy . Well meet two mums now living there whove been trying to find out. Carol is always happy and she has got the weather. Good morning. Across england and wales, dense, patchy fog. Some spots of reasoning. Scotla nd patchy fog. Some spots of reasoning. Scotland and Northern Ireland, much more mild. Patches of rain but later, some sunshine. Good morning. First, our main story. The Supreme Court will rule today on whether its up to parliament or government to start the process for exiting the European Union. The government argues that ministers have the power to trigger the eus article 50 exit clause. But opponents say they need pa rliaments approval to start negotiations. The judgement is significant, as it goes to the heart of where power lies in the uk and could disrupt the Prime Ministers Brexit Timetable as our Political Correspondent, chris mason reports. The European Union ignites strong passions. Almost seven weeks ago, protesters gathered outside the Supreme Court as the ii protesters gathered outside the Supreme Court as the 11 most senior judges in the land gathered inside. Power after power of dense legal argument followed on the biggest question in politics. Where does power light . Is it behind the door here in Downing Street . Or inside here in Downing Street . Or inside here in Downing Street . Or inside here in parliament . The Prime Minister says she can start the uks divorce from the eu herself but campaigners, led by the businesswoman jean miller, campaigners, led by the businesswomanjean miller, says mps and peers have to have a say first. This morning, we will find out who has won. If the government loses, they will also lose complete control of the timetable for starting the process of leaving the European Union. It will have to rush its planned through parliament in the next few weeks. Today is not about whether brexit should or will happen but who gets to press go. That is why it matters and that is why there was a lot of interest here in what thejudges had to was a lot of interest here in what the judges had to say. Was a lot of interest here in what thejudges had to say. Chris was a lot of interest here in what the judges had to say. Chris mason, bbc news, westminster. We will be focusing on that through the day. Lets speak to our Political Correspondent, Carole Walker who is outside the Supreme Court this morning. Is there any indication yet about what the judges are expected to decide . The expectation widely as the judgement will go against the government, that theresa may will be told she must seek the approval of parliament before she can trigger article 50 which will begin the formal process of those negotiations to ta ke formal process of those negotiations to take britain out of the European Union. Nobody expects mps or peers to try to block that process but they will try to amend any legislation that she tries to get through parliament, to try to affect her whole approach to those negotiations. That could delay the process. As you mentioned, theresa may wants to trigger article 50 by the end of march. If there are a series of different boats which go against her, that could delay the whole proceeding. It will throw an extra light as well onto the labour party amid some confusion as to exactly what their position is on this whole process. Another important issue which the judges will be deciding today is whether the government has to take account of the devolved administration of scotla nd of the devolved administration of scotland and Northern Ireland and wales. Scotland is demanding to have position to stay permission to stay in the Single Market but pending elections in Northern Ireland so it is not clear who she will have to consult, an important judgement today which could have a big effect on that whole process of britains departure from the eu. Later on this morning, we will be talking to the former deputy Prime Minister nick clegg to get his thoughts on the Supreme Court. It will dominate things this morning. Drivers caught driving well above the speed limit will face bigger fines after a review of the sentencing guidelines for courts in england and wales. The changes will allow magistrates to impose much tougher penalties on drivers and are intended to make sure the punishment for speeding is a lot higher for the worst offenders. Sian grzeszczyk has more. President trump has announced that america will formally withdraw from the Trans Pacific partnership, one of the major pledges he made during the election campaign. The trade deal involving a dozen countries was agreed by barack obama. President trump has also cut funding for International Groups that provide abortions, and has frozen the hiring of some federal workers. Flood management in england and wales is still fragmented, inefficient and ineffective according to a group of mps. Members of the Commons Environment Committee have accused the government of failing to take simple steps to protect homes after they recommended an overhaul of the system. The government has rejected the criticism, saying that many suggestions have been accepted. Fiona lamdin reports. Sadly not such a rare sight, waging war against the water as roads are transformed into rivers. In recent years theres been severe flooding in cumbria, yorkshire, scotland and somerset. Two months ago the nvironmental food and Rural Affairs committee defra called for a radical overhaul to what it called the governments disjointed Flood Management. Just one of the many criticisms levied at defra, it hasnt created a National Floods commissioner for england. Flooding is a much more regular occurrence affecting many more people than it ever has done. So the citizens of this country want to see the government protect them against flooding. Weve asked some questions and made some recommendations, its the governments responsibility to protect its citizens. Defra say its already implementing many of the report suggestions, such as managing Water Courses across entire catchment areas. But say there is no need for structural changes. Over the next five years the government is investing £2. 5 billion On Building Flood Defence Schemes across the country, protecting an additional 300,000 homes. But with Climate Change were being told to expect more heavy rain, increasing the flood risk. And so for this select committee its unlikely the governments current interventions will be enough.

Cyclists who choose the right on the pavement instead of the road often face angry stares, not to mention falling foul ofa stares, not to mention falling foul of a fine.
