2:08 pm
hello, good afternoon. this should probably be the end of it was the coldest night of the winter so far for most of us last night, it. but there is a lot of winter sunshine out there and blue sky today — including here in the united states says it pontypridd in south wales. has carried out another a few showers for western wales, round of airstrikes against houthi targets in yemen. showers clearing away the us military says it from north sea—facing coasts, targeted 14 missiles which were ready to be launched. but still blizzard—like conditions the operation came shortly in northern scotland, after an american owned commercial and we're set to stay in that cold vessel was hit by a drone fired air for the next couple of days from houthi controlled before it turns a lot territory on wednesday. milder over the weekend, and now to westminster. but also wet and very windy — already, warnings in force for heavy rain and strong, gusty winds. and there's an amber warning in force across the northern isles rishi sunak has been outlining and down through caithness the next steps for his plan to send some asylum seekers who come and sutherland for heavy snow to the uk to rwanda, until six o'clock this evening — in central africa. he won a vote in the house as much as 15 to 20 centimetres of commons on wednesday of falling snow. evening for legislation which effectively declares rwanda blizzard—like conditions with brisk northerly—to—north—westerly winds to be a safe country. and drifting snow, too. the new legislation was brought in after the uk's supreme court wider warnings in force ruled it could not go ahead. across northern ireland and much the prime minister had of scotland away from the south to face down a potential rebellion from inside his own and the east for snow and ice. conservative party elsewhere, the winter and could yet face more opposition sunshine continues. from the house of lords or even once still maybe a few showers drifting into northwestern wales,
2:09 pm
again in the courts. down through parts of south—west wales, and into perhaps the far south—west of england through this evening. again, those snow showers pile into north—western areas of scotland. this is an urgent national priority. there will be icy stretches the treaty with rwanda is signed and the legislation which deems where we've seen the showers today, and maybe some freezing fog patches, rwanda a safe country has been too — particularly across passed unamended in our elected chamber. the east midlands and down through eastern areas there's only one question — of wales, too. will the opposition and the appointed house of lords try temperatures widely, and frustrate the will of the people as expressed by the elected house of course, below freezing. but tomorrow we start to drag or will they get on board and do the right thing? in some milder—feeling air, with more of a south—westerly wind starting to develop. the snow levels will gradually rise across north—western scotland, so the snow turning back to rain and to sleet — particularly for lower lying areas, of course. temperatures coming up slightly to between four let's just quickly run and seven degrees celsius. through what the legislation would actually mean. it will be largely dry it outlines a plan to send some and there will be quite a lot asylum seekers arriving of winter sunshine around again. in the uk to rwanda where they would as we head into the weekend, have their claims processed. it's all change — we start to look if successful, they could be granted refugee status out to the atlantic again, and allowed to stay. various weather fronts if not, they could apply to settle moving through. in rwanda on other grounds, look at the squeeze on the isobars — or seek asylum in another it's going to turn "safe third country". anyone "entering the uk illegally" really very windy. after i january 2022 most of us will wake up to temperatures above freezing could be sent there, the government said, as we head through saturday morning.
2:10 pm
with no limit on numbers. there will be outbreaks of rain ministers say it would deter people again — possibly heavy at times — from risking their lives by crossing the english just drifting in from the west, channel in small boats. so some wet weather but look the first flight was scheduled to go at these temperatures — injune 2022, but was rising back up into double figures cancelled after legal challenges. for western spots as we head through saturday. warnings in place on sunday opposition parties have not been impressed with the government's for strong winds for much of the uk plans to tackle illegal migration, and for heavy rain, too. and potential abuse of the asylum system. it turns even milder into the start of next week. bye— bye. the prime minister's performance at the press conference today was bizarre. very difficult to see what the point of that press conference really was. he is a weak prime minister leading a deeply divided party. we have seen shambolic warring factions in the conservative party over the last two days on the rwanda bill. what they should be doing is committing to labour's plan to really work with european partners to have a security partnership that will go after the criminal gangs upstream, sharing data, breaking their business model. and rolling up their sleeves and having some hard graft and common sense rather than these headline—chasing gimmicks
2:11 pm
like the rwanda policy. the uk prime minister has succeeded in getting his key rwanda bill through the house of commons after a tory rebellion failed to materialise. rishi sunak insists that his party is "completely united". i asked henry hill, deputy editor of conservative home, if he agrees. they are united in that they eventually managed to get it through the third reading in the house of commons with only a small number of rebels but the party is divided on this question, on the one hand you have mps who worry that the whole rwanda scheme is going too far, and poses fundamental questions about the uk's existing legal commitments and on the other hand you have the rebels who do not think the bill as drafted will be effective and there is a huge political dangerfor the government as one of the problem of not solving the small boats. it is a very complex issue and no party, the
2:12 pm
conservatives and labour, the former are struggling with the issue and labour do not have a solution either, so it is divisive and it poses questions about the state of the uk's international commitments and those divisions are going to continue to play out for the rest of this parliament and over the next ten years or so i suspect. the world trade organization once shipping costs from attacks on the red sea could hit developing countries the hardest. saudi arabia's state oil company plans to double its venture capital investments in things other than oil. i want to stay in the uk. welcome to world business report. a senior union official has warned that staff at the uk's biggest steelworks company are braced for bad news on job losses. breaking news reaching us, we are tata steel officials will meet with union representatives on thursday. the company is expected to reveal whether it will proceed with plans to cut thousands ofjobs from its port talbot site, or adopt alternative plans to reduce job losses. our correspondent has the latest.
2:13 pm
this could decide the fate of the site and the fate of this community and at the heart of it, these big blast furnaces behind me, they are powered by coal and they are the conventional way of making steel and they emit huge amounts of carbon dioxide. this plant is one of the biggest single emitters of greenhouse gases in the uk, responsible for 2% of carbon emissions, and for long time the steel industry has it needs to become cleaner and greener and late last year tata steel pushed forward a plan to replace these with electric furnaces using renewable energy and recycling old scrap steel, but while it cuts carbon emissions it also dramatically cuts the workforce, potentially losing up to 3000 jobs at tata steel uk and it was vigorously opposed by the trade unions who came up with alternative plans and they have raised concerns about the ability of the uk to make virgin steel, and its dependency on imports from abroad, saying some of
2:14 pm
the plans may not be that environmentally friendly after all. whatever decisions come from tata steel will be listened to very keenly here by the workers, many of whom fear for their keenly here by the workers, many of whom fearfor theirjobs. the biggest strike in northern ireland's history has begun, with tens of thousands of workers taking part in walkouts over pay. nurses, teachers and civil servants are among the public sector workers who are taking part in the action, which is co ordinated between 16 trade unions. from belfast chris page reports.
2:15 pm
the first of many thousands on strike. these bus engineers were on the picket lines before daybreak. there is nothing moving at the depot. the people who usually keep public transport going say their pay has slowed up too much. i am only young and i have only been here not that long and prices are atrocious and i can't get on the property ladder because of the wage. the current political situation has just drove a wedge between good times and bad times now, it just seems that the bad times are on the rise. it's about time we made a stand. we haven't made a stand for a long time. - that is the mood which has led 16 trade unions to take co—ordinated action, across education, the civil service and healthcare. what do we want? fair pay. when do we want it...? now. at the biggest hospital in northern ireland, paramedics, radiographers and nurses joined the walkouts. they are paid less than their counterparts in england, scotland and wales, and they say that's caused an understaffing crisis. this day, actually, 42 years ago on the 18th of january i started my nursing career and i never thought 42 years later i would
2:16 pm
be standing here on the picket line fighting for what is right for our patients, our patients should not be suffering in hospitals, we are losing nurses and safe staffing hasjust... it's really, really concerning. not just about the pay award but it is what that means for nurses in the profession and nurses staying within the profession. we were promised pay parity with england the last time, and we have fallen out of parity with england, we remain behind. services have been reduced to a level similar to what happens on christmas day. caroline is having treatment for cancer. she has had appointments rescheduled because of the industrial action. i've got more drips to do now, and just in this weather, it is not great to be have to be making extra trips when you don't need to. but having said that i am fully in support of the nurses going out on strike because of the job they do, and they are entitled to equal pay as the rest of the uk. whistle blows this is a strike on a scale most people here have never seen before. but it may not be a one—off. unions say they are prepared to take even more serious steps if their members don't get better wages.
2:17 pm
they hope this day of discontent and disruption will demonstrate the depth of feeling. chris page, bbc around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. now some of the other stories making the news. a two year old boy and his dad have been found dead at a property in skegness, which has prompted an urgent review into what happened. bronson battersby was found alone in the house with his 60 year old dad, kenneth battersby, on the 9th of january. the consumer group which says its research suggests people can pay significantly more for train tickets at station vending machines in england compared with those bought online. 00:17:58,827 --> 2147483051:45:44,128 it checked the prices of seventy 2147483051:45:44,128 --> 4294966103:13:29,429 five differentjourneys.
