evidence of that. there is... do not like the fact that an islamic brother, as they see it, it is taking action. turkey is in the front line, it has been for the best pa rt of front line, it has been for the best part of a year. i cannot see that improving at all. air bnb - this is an interesting story. paris implemented new regulations just yesterday on air bnb meaning it has to provide data on people letting properties in terms of tax issues. it was seen cities are cracking down on air bnb. when i saw this story, missing out of $400 million in london, you mentioned paris, new york, us alone. air bnb is now a victim of its own success because,

it is an interesting story. never mind the death which all legislatures suffer from. one of the biggest blows to the national people's congress in china was the fallout that led to the dismissal of 45 delegates in the national legislature. it shows again that the communist party is increasingly taking anticorruption seriously. however, they know it damages the economy. the president is also using it to exert his control over the party and we are seeing that here we re party and we are seeing that here were probably in some ways he is quite happy to have examples of corrupt lawmakers because it stops others to do so but it also allows them to put the people he wants in them to put the people he wants in the congress. an interesting story. the gulf news frontpage, local elections in india. interesting

some great symbolic value. —— inc.” love cash, in whatever form it comes. bring it on. that is what the corrupt lawmakers in china was saying! the value would just go. the re st of saying! the value would just go. the rest of the world is going contact less. there is a huge cost in having cash, moving it around, they have to deal with it, taken to the but in switzerland it is not a deterrent. i would encourage everyone to have a look at a swiss banknote, they are beautiful. thank you. and thank you for watching. enjoy your day. bye— bye. hello there. stargazers have had something of a cold treat over recent hours. the clear skies across england and wales have allowed a frost to form, but we have had some beautiful weather watcher pictures

sent to us of the moon and also visible planets. venus was particularly visible earlier in the night. now, it's a cold start to the day. england and wales having a widespread frost to start off with. the lowest temperature down to about —7 celsius, so a freezing start. and there is the risk of some icy stretches first thing across parts of england and wales on untreated roads and pavements to watch out for as well. further north, well, it's not particularly cold here because we have got a lot of cloud across scotland. a brisk wind and some rain to start the day as well, particularly the highlands, pushing into some of the grampian regions too. probably the rain staying off and away from the central belt. a lot of cloud for northern ireland. quite cloudy too for north—west england, the north of wales and north—west midlands. but lots of sunshine to start the day across much of eastern england, the south midlands, southern england and south wales. in fact, for many, there will be barely a cloud in the sky. there could be the odd isolated fog patch, but it won't be widespread, and it will clear pretty quickly through tuesday.

through the rest of the day, essentially it's a fairly dry day. the cloudiest weather, if you like, across the north—west of the uk could bring isolated showers across the hills of northern england. we do have some wet weather on and off through the day across the north—west of scotland. but it's here where we will see here some of the day's highest temperatures — up to 9 degrees. windy through the northern isles, particularly for shetland. gusts could reach 60—70 miles an hourfor a time. through the night, it will stay blustery, plenty of showers working in across the northern isles, and it will turn cold enough for a nip of frost this coming night, across the far north—west of scotland, particularly in rural parts. looking at the weather charts as they change through tuesday and wednesday, we still have high pressure with us, but it is kind of reorientating, allowing a blast of colder air to work down from the north sea. with that colder air, the blues you can see on the chart, will have plenty of showers forming but the good news is most of those showers should be steered away from the coastline by these brisk north north—westerly winds. elsewhere we have a weak front moving southwards across northern ireland, england and wales, on wednesday,

bringing with it a lot of cloud, one or two light spots of rain but nothing particularly significant. as that front clears through, the sunshine comes back out. down go the temperatures with highs of around 4—7 celsius across the northern half of the uk. it will be a cold night wednesday night on into thursday, plenty of sunshine. a change in the weather, though, for friday. it turns wet and windy but also milder. highs in glasgow reaching ten by friday. that's your weather. hello, this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. a man is shot dead by police in an operation near the m62 motorway in huddersfield. west yorkshire police say the operation was pre—planned, but gave few other details. it is the fifth fatal police shooting in england and wales within nine months. the independent police complaints commission is investigating. good morning, it is tuesday 3 january also this morning:
