joining us is mark davies who's ceo at strategy consultancy, camberton. what was a first or? donald trump. it sounds a bit dodgy. there are certain laws about nepotism. it sounds a bit dodgy. there are certain laws about nepotismm it sounds a bit dodgy. there are certain laws about nepotism. it were brought in in 1967. bobby kennedy was appointed byjfk in 1961 and people are saying that these reached those laws. i think the chances of them actually pinning back on trump are zero. this is a case of people not being happy with trump, not being happy with his appointment. the issue is not so much his age, he is 36, it is what he has done. what is 36, it is what he has done. what is his experience? he doesn't have any. he was instrumental in the trump campaign that he didn't do much before that. if you look at his academic background, it seems that much of his university history is

thanks to his father making significant donations, first to harvard and then another university. borisjohnson met harvard and then another university. boris johnson met him harvard and then another university. borisjohnson met him in new york couple of days ago so he is already playing a significant role in what is going to be the trump presidency. can we talk about meryl streep's speech? it happened early, early in the morning on monday so it didn't appear in the british press but now it has. it's almost broken the internet. some people hate her, some people are lauding her. we have had if the whole campaign, haven't we? she talked about the time that donald trump mocked the disabled reporter but that is just one donald trump mocked the disabled reporter but that isjust one of many things that trump did during the course of the campaign. which caused the internet, at the time, to break. this is going to go on because it is quite clear that trump is not going to stop the approach that he has had all the way through. he then came out on twitter and criticised meryl streep and said she

was overrated. had top films has grossed almost $40 million. it is very important. the company having a go at it. that is true but he keeps getting involved in twitter spat. they learnt anything new in these stories about donald trump but we are ten days away from him becoming president. inevitably, people are going to focus on all of those bad things. it is really want to ask. for me and the uninitiated, what is thejob for the senior for me and the uninitiated, what is the job for the senior adviser to the job for the senior adviser to the white house? the nepotism rules are quite precise about what can and can't be done to stop he is not working print agency, so it doesn't count stopped he could be that in any capacity. hillary clinton, of course, any capacity. hillary clinton, of course , was any capacity. hillary clinton, of course, was effectively an adviser

for bill clinton while he was in the white house so whether he has an official role not, they say he is not taking a salary so there is no way they will be able to stop it but they will be a lot of noise. the expression bobs your uncle came about because a british prime minister gave a job to his nephew at the time. that is the fact of the day. i love that! this is potentially a serious political crisis. particularly because ireland and northern ireland are heading for political crisis anyway as a result of the retford referendum because there has been talk of the need to put a border. —— brexit. in the event there is a border put there, there is a potential crisis looming. the specific crisis is because the

government must fall if the deputy resigns, as has now happened. mcguiness has resigned and foster has to go as the leader of the result of that. there is a potential crisis. there will have to be an election and sinn fein will have to put someone up. for those watching around the world, the ftse 100, put someone up. for those watching around the world, the ftse100, the main stock market, if you are one of the biggest companies. it goes up as the biggest companies. it goes up as the pound goes down. explain that. most of the companies then in dollars and therefore their earnings are worth more. more bang for the buck. the precise expression. the value of those companies is going up asa value of those companies is going up as a result. the ftse has now gone up as a result. the ftse has now gone up eight record days in a row. is it sustainable? no, it's not but if you

look at it in dollar terms, it is down 4.1% since the brexit referendum. if you look at it in absolute terms, it is up 14%. the relationship between the level of the ftse and the dollar and earnings is absolutely... you mean what the companies are worth? if you take their earnings and you convert them into dollars. right. dollar has depreciated by 20% against sterling. donald trump has said to toyota that they would ban their imports if they built in mexico. they are now saying they have to close their mexican factories. fiat chrysler. the warning is that donald trump may be taking excessive action to protect

manufacturing at the expense of the other 19% of thejobs. manufacturing at the expense of the other 19% of the jobs. is that of their strategy that he is employing? that is possibly true. a great deal of his victory came as a result of the pledges that he made to the rustbelt. he is reallyjust moving and delivery on those. —— delivering. it is not a fabrication, the story, but it is overblown in that when you build a car plant, it isa that when you build a car plant, it is a capital intensive thing. you are putting money in for the long—term. if people are looking at donald trump presidency as a four—year presidency or an eight—year presidency, do you do this on the basis of what the tariffs will be for the immediate future? i think the answer is no. if you have invested already and built the car plant, you go for contingency measures and you hope something will come in and do something will come in and do something more sensible. trump is delivering on exactly what he said.

don't understand why this is a surprise to anybody. if you read the quotes, it's not. not surprised that a continuing very good story. if you are mexican, it is bad. for us, in the news, he is the president and the news, he is the president and the gift that keeps on giving, as well. it is for his analysis. how great is cristiano ronaldo? as was written in the paper today, he is a very vain man with a lot to be vain about. thank you very much indeed, very much enjoyed it, as always. goodbye. goodbye. good morning. there's certainly some chilly and wintry weather on the way but today, it will get that bit milder as we go through the day. lots of clouds spilling in from the west after what will be a cooler start than recent mornings.

even a touch of frost and ice around in southern and eastern parts of england with clearer skies at the end of the night. start the day with sunshine, a much brighter day than we have seen for the past few. in the west, already patchy rain and drizzle and a bit of a breeze across devon and cornwell and west wales. a bit of rain pushing into northern england, mainly to the west of the pennines, going through the night. the further north we go, a blustery start and strong winds through the night in northern scotland. already here, the cloud is spilling in. western scotland and northern ireland, occasional rain. cloudy conditions with occasional rain and drizzle in the west, pushing its way eastward. winds strengthening throughout across the northern half of the county, gales in particular to the north—east. temperatures steadily on the rise. by the end of the day, into double figures in the west but a bit cooler further east. it sets us into a mild enough start through the night with a bit of cloud but strong winds and severe gales spreading across the north of scotland through the night. the wind is picking up elsewhere as we go into wednesday morning.

a weakening weather front works its way southwards. temperatures into double figures overnight in the far south. notice we are starting to open the door to arctic air. into wednesday, not only will it get colder but we will have strong winds to contend with. bear that in mind if you are on the move on wednesday. wind gusting 50—60 mph through parts of wales and northwards. frequent showers in the north and west turning into sleet and snow as the colder air digs in. slowly getting colder across the south but temperatures still holding up by the afternoon, 7—9. plenty of cloud and one or two rain showers. the big change comes into thursday. open the door to arctic air. this little feature, pushing in to the south as we go through the day. how far north that goes, it will be crucial as to whether we see any snow into thursday across southern counties. at the moment, it will stay in the english channel, mainly rain, but maybe a bit of snow. frequent snow showers across northern and western parts of the country, giving coverage to some places. eastern areas, dry and brighter. one or two flurries. for all, the wind will be noticeable, makeing it feel subzero, a real arctic blast with a bitter wind chill. the cold winds continue into friday.

again, we will see snow flurries work their way southwards. at this stage, we have to be careful of severe gales down the north sea. here we can see some rough seas around the coast as well. bye for now. hello. this is breakfast, with louise minchin and dan walker. more misery for hundreds of thousands of passengers as southern rail is hit by a fresh wave of strikes. more than 2000 trains have been cancelled on some of the network's busiest commuter lines. good morning. it's tuesday the 10th of january. also this morning: jeremy corbyn says britain can be better off after brexit. and for the first time, he says he's not wedded to freedom of movement of eu workers into the uk. a last—minute spending spree boosted retail sales this christmas, with more of us waiting til the last
