6:02 am
clark, places like this are part of the answer. it is a new automotive centre, backed by government and industry money, designed to keep our carmakers are firing on all cylinders. the strategy will be committed to driving very hard, to spread the opportunities right across the country and to drive, not justjobs but across the country and to drive, not just jobs but really across the country and to drive, not justjobs but really good, well paying jobs in all parts of the country. it will be a good part of oui’ country. it will be a good part of our strategy. today, the strategy will be outlined in a new green paper, aimed at kickstarting a new wide—ranging consultation on the government's new vision. that will include plants for sector deals where businesses and stakeholders in specific sectors can make the case for government support. that is just one of ten so—called strategic pillars which are all designed to increase productivity and drive growth. in the past, governments used industrial strategies as an
6:03 am
excuse used industrial strategies as an excuse to back key firms or industries. it didn't always work. as we prepare for the challenge of leaving the eu, the big test of this plan will be that it doesn'tjust deliver for successful firms like this but that it reaches out to a pa rt this but that it reaches out to a part of the uk to deliver the government's aim of an economy that works for everybody. john moylan, bbc news. ben is in warrington for us this morning. how are businesses responding to the announcement? you are right. you heard in tom's report the idea that we will hear from the minister theresa may little later about all elements of the country feeling the benefits of economic growth. that will be the keyissue economic growth. that will be the key issue because we have heard a lot about things like the northern powerhouse, getting cities in the north of england working again. that includes places like liverpool, manchester, leeds. it is about bringing the whole country could
6:04 am
together. she will lay out the ten point she thinks is crucial for this. that includes hard infrastructure, roads, railways and internet infrastructure, rolling out broad brant to more and more consumers and businesses —— broadband. the great training and skills that many businesses say they need the right stuff in the right place for the right jobs need the right stuff in the right place for the rightjobs available. here, we are looking at the story of manufacturing. does the uk produce enough any more and if not why not? what extra help could it have from the government to get the country working again? we will hear more from theresa may later at a warning, i will be here taking the pulse of business in this part of the world and find out what they want to hear in that announcement from the prime minister a little later. join me in about half an hour. the labour party is calling on theresa may to make a statement to parliament clarifying whether she she knew about a reported trident missile misfire before a vote to renew the system. the prime minister told the bbc
6:05 am
she has "full faith" in the trident programme. our political correspondent tom bateman is in westminster. tom, how serious is this for the pm? bearing in mind, many people asked the question four times and not got a straight ante yesterday? this is potentially embarrassing for the government —— straight answer. this one happened lastjune. we heard nothing about it. the reported misfiring happened just weeks before theresa may stood up in front of mps and urged them to back the spending of £40 billion to renew the trident system. as you say, crucially, she was asked about this several times yesterday and just how much she knew about it. did you know the misfire had occurred? i have absolute faith in our trident missiles. i think we should defend our country. i think
6:06 am
we should play a role in nato with an independent nuclear deterrent. did you know about it when you told the house of commons? jono the issue would talk about in the house of commons was a serious issue. it was about whether or not we should renew trident, looking to the future, have a replacement trident. that's what we we re a replacement trident. that's what we were talking about in the house of commons. that's what house of commons voted for. i believe in defending a country. jeremy corbyn voted against it. he doesn't want to defend our country with an independent nuclear deterrent. she was asked about it again and declined to answer the question. 0ne labourmp 0ne labour mp accused the government ofa 0ne labour mp accused the government of a cover—up over this misfire. as for the minister of defence, it says that the capability of trident remained, in its view, unquestionable. you can see the fog behind tom. it was foggy where i was. we will get all the details.
6:07 am
tell us about the fog! government scientists are advising that starchy foods like toast and potatoes are not cooked beyond a golden colour to reduce the risk of developing cancer. the food standards agency's "go for gold" campaign says over—browning food for more flavour and crunch increases a carcinogenic molecule called acrylamide. our health correspondent robert pigott reports. the warning includes some of the most popular foods in the british diet, such as crisps, chips, cakes and biscuits. the longer they're cooked above 120 celsius, the more acrylamide they contain. those foods go through a browning process, which many of us like in terms of flavour and taste, but it also produces this acrylamide. the sugars in starchy foods such as your breakfast toast combine with the molecules that make up protein to produce acrylamide that can damage the dna in cells. we know that in animal studies it can create cancer and so we are concerned
6:08 am
if there is the same mechanism in people that high exposure could increase people's risk. the fsa says people should go for gold, aiming for gold and yellow in baking, roasting, frying or toasting rather than something darker. it says eating a balanced diet rich in vegetables will guard against cancer. cancer research uk says acrylamide might be harmful to people but insists there are other far bigger proven dangers — being obese, drinking too much and especially smoking. in around ten minutes we'll be finding out more about that fsa campaign and talking to the masterchef winner simon wood about how to prepare tasty meals without over—browning. —— at ten past eight. the old burnt toast debate. people will be upset about it. have people upstairs tried to give us examples of burnt toast. imagine what is going on in the

6:10 am
for the first time. and for the first time, it is the man who control the guns of the opposition groups who are going to be at the ta bles groups who are going to be at the tables inside this venue. not the political representatives of the syrian opposition. this is a new way to try to deal with the old problems will stop we are roadie healing that the old animosities, the old obstacles the old animosities, the old o bsta cles — — the old animosities, the old obstacles —— we are already hearing. the old obstacles are rearing their heads. because the government, backed by russia and iran, are now dominating the field, it is going to have an impact on the talks as well. police say one man has been arrested after an officer was shot in belfast last night. the officer is in a stable condition after being hit twice in the arm when a number of shots were fired from a car on the crumlin road in the north of the city. the northern ireland secretary james brokenshire said the attack was sickening. a police crackdown on motorists who illegally use mobile phones at the wheel resulted in nearly 8000 drivers being caught in the space

6:42 am
hear about the plans for the economy and how the rest of the country will share in the benefit. crucially, what difference it will make for business. greg is a deep bass here. good morning to you —— boss. what difference will it make? government laying out a ten point strategy. we are looking for stability. we don't wa nt are looking for stability. we don't want any flux in the market. we are also looking to get on with our jobs. we are quite a mature business so we are jobs. we are quite a mature business so we are looking for the stable platform and do what we are roadie doing very well. one of the big issuesis doing very well. one of the big issues is skills as well. getting the right people through the door. —— that we are already doing well. absolutely. somebody coming up on the production floor takes six months to train. if we could have somebody ready on day one, that would be a huge benefit. time and money. interesting, when you hear
6:43 am
from the government, hearing about getting involved in business. don't really wa nt getting involved in business. don't really want to be involved but they wa nt to really want to be involved but they want to be getting on with it. there are questions about whether westminster should be deciding what is best for the country? it's a fantastic the government has decided to have an industrial strategy but it is about it being tailored to a business like this one. it might be fine getting on with things but others need support. they need technical support. the government can provide some of that support. what we are worried about is that these decisions need to be devolved down to local areas. it should not be whitehall dollop in little bits of cash here and there where they see fit. we needed at local, regional level, to make sure they invest in the best businesses there are in that locality. and also, it's all well and good to hear these announcements, ten point plan. the truth is, what it means day today. it can'tjust
6:44 am
truth is, what it means day today. it can't just be truth is, what it means day today. it can'tjust be a sound bite. places like warrington. we have seen before, very good ideas coming out that when we come to use them, there is no support or structure to make it work in the real world. jono just a word from you in the northern powerhouse, —— just a word from you. it is notjust about money which in market not at all. it's about passing decisions down to regional agencies to make sure they can be closer to where the best businesses are. they know what to invest in, the right strategy, right sectors. very often, if its london picking which sectors, that's not going to be any good for those local areas. jono good stuff. the now. —— good stuff, for now, we will finish. we will be hearing about how important it is for business here and what the government can do to help us do
6:45 am
more. if you are waking up this morning, you might be seen that it is very foggy in parts. carol can bring us up foggy in parts. carol can bring us up to date. good morning. yes, indeed, a lot of fog around this morning and unusually we have dense fog across parts of london. we haven't had a distance in london for some time. lovely weather watchers pictures illustrating that point. it's not just in pictures illustrating that point. it's notjust in the london area where we have fog, it is across many southern counties. this is where we have particularly dense fog. visibility down to 50 metres in some parts of the south, we also have parts of the south, we also have parts of the south, we also have parts of wales, northern england and southern scotland very foggy. so if you are travelling it is freezing fog we are looking at. travel disruption possible. already some flights have been cancelled. you can find out what's happening weatherwise where you are on your
6:46 am
bbc local radio station and the bbc travel pages. temperatures start about freezing or below across many parts of the south—east, southern counties, through the midlands, heading towards the south—west. here we do have dense fog. in the far south—west it is cold and frosty, but we don't have fog. across wales are some patchy fog and quite a bit of cloud around. in northern ireland you for free, but it is foggy in the west. —5, —6 at the moment. frosty in scotland after a cloudy start to the night. the cloud starts to disperse, then temperatures drop and we have patchy fog in southern scotland, as we have across northern england. you can see from the blue hue that it is freezing fog. some of that will be slow to clear. we expect it to take longer to clear in
6:47 am
the far south of england. some places might hang onto it and if that happens temperatures will struggle break freezing. that happens temperatures will struggle breakfreezing. for that happens temperatures will struggle break freezing. for most of us struggle break freezing. for most of us away from that it will be a fine and dry day, with quite a bit of sunshine. no heat wave in prospect, highs of about 4—7. later in the day the wind will pick up in northern ireland and western scotland. that heralds the arrival of a weather front bringing in rain. it will be too breezy fourfold in the west tonight. but you can see as we push in through central and eastern parts of england in particular we are back into a foggy situation. and also some widespread frost. so once again we have freezing fog. tomorrow that will take its time to clear. it will linger again for much of the day for some parts. some of it lifting in the local out. temperatures will be held down. rain coming across scotla nd held down. rain coming across scotland and northern ireland, it moves into northern england and north wales, but it's a weak affair,
6:48 am
so north wales, but it's a weak affair, so it will be patchy light rain and drizzle. some sunshine either side. highest temperatures towards the west. thanks we much. —— thanks very much. it is said a missile fired by the royal navy last year went in the wrong direction. the labour party has said the prime minister has avoided questions about the event and is calling for a full explanation today. shadow defence secretary nia griffithjoins us from westminster now. let's just talk about the questions the prime minister was asked yesterday. she was asked specifically about whether she knew that this test had gone wrong. should she have answered that question? she certainly should. it is such a serious incident. she is bound to have known and what she
6:49 am
needs to tell us is did she know before she gave a major speech on tridentjust before she gave a major speech on trident just days before before she gave a major speech on tridentjust days before she became the prime minister? it isn't something you would forget if you had been briefed about it. do you know it's a serious incident? we don't know yet, we only have reports, and that's part of the problem. we should have had a full report to parliament and we should know exactly what happened from the mod and also what investigations they've carried out since. it is extremely embarrassing that the british public and british mp5 don't know, and of course the international powers would have been notified in the usual channels of any notified in the usual channels of a ny tests notified in the usual channels of any tests being carried out and presumably if something had veered off course they would have had to be notified about that. with regard... this was a test, that's what is meant to happen. they are trying to see what happens at whether or not things go wrong, and you think routinely that the prime minister should know every single time something happens? there is normally a report to parliament about such incidents as. the mod does normally
6:50 am
issue a report, and so of course we should know what is going on, and particularly when you read something like this in the newspapers it doesn't make you think, well, where's the transparency in government and why couldn't the prime minister yesterday have been upfront and honest about what she knew? you were discussing in parliament about time, orjust knew? you were discussing in parliament about time, or just after it happened, the future of trident. could it have influenced decisions? we don't know because we don't exactly what happened, so we can't speculate on that until we have a full report. that's what we are for today. i know you may disagree with him on this, atjeremy corbyn says the incident is a catastrophic error. what does he mean by that? i think the incident speaks for itself, if the reports are true, that a missile veering offcourse is something to be extremely concerned about, but we need to have the full
6:51 am
detail of exactly what did happen and why this occurred. and the government offcourse has spoken about this, and said the capability and effectiveness of the trident missile, should we ever need to employ it, is unquestionable. is that something you would agree with? any to explain what happened in this particular incident. we can't speculate on what they are saying when they aren't being open and honest and explaining exactly what happened. ok. thanks for your time on breakfast. it was the film that defined the cool britannia era, and made household names of its cast. more than 20 years later, the sequel to trainspotting has finally arrived. some people waiting with bated breath! t2 trainspotting had its world premiere in edinburgh last night. 0ur entertainment correspondent colin paterson was there. after more than 20 years, the trainspotting gang back together, on the orange carpet of the long—awaited sequel.
6:52 am
hello, mark. what have you been up to 420 years? we didn't want to disappoint people because the film had a section in people's hearts, sweden want to ruin it and tarnish that image, so i hope we haven't done that. apart from all of in the first movie i think people found it relatable, even though it was about subjects they may have not been involved with, it was was still relatable in some way. there is such a cultural weight associated with it, that it feels like no we don't that i've been to before. choose life, choose a job, choose a career. . . life, choose a job, choose a career... trainspotting was the defining film of cool britannia. the posters on student's walls, the soundtrack in cd players. it dealt with addiction, feminism and friendship. for the sequel, with addiction, feminism and friendship. forthe sequel, ewan mcgregor‘s famous speech has had and
6:53 am
update. choose life, choose facebook, twitter, and hope that somewhere facebook, twitter, and hope that somewhere someone ca res. facebook, twitter, and hope that somewhere someone cares. there's something very deep and moving about finding out where they are all —— they all are now under the northern india be that i've done and there aren't very many that we've seen, where the characters become almost like people we know. it is fair to say the four guys have lived the bet. how do you think they have aged? there was always a moment in every shooting day where there was that 20 years later moment where you felt 20 years had gone by since he was last playing this guide. detox the system. what does that even mean? it doesn't mean anything. it isn't getting out of your body that's the problem, it's getting out of your mind. you are an attic. you think i haven't heard that 100,000 times? so, the addicted. the
6:54 am
addicted to something else. after trainspotting came out we were like the waiters of the movie in britain. —— the waiters. we represented writ p0p —— the waiters. we represented writ pop movies. so there was a part of me that yearns for that again, i suppose. and he might not be finished with a roll. the cast are already talking about trainspotting three, using urban welsh‘s latest novel as a starting point. we think the chances are good. it was published in the and i'm up for it, he is up for it, so i don't think you've seen the last of me yet! you've got the answer to why ewan mcgregor was wearing that hat. yes, lots of people were asking. he is currently filming the third series of the tv series fargo, so he
6:55 am
has a complete balls head at the moment. in the tv series he plays twins and the twins where two different weeks. so glad i asked! —— different wigs. there is advice out today that if you burn your toast it could be carcinogenic. we are asking how you like your toast. lots of people contacting us toast. lots of people contacting us to say they only post their toast under the grill. jay says the only way to have your toast is to cremate it. mr says you have to have it cremated, it makes your hair curly! the cremated toast people are very vociferous this morning. i am sure many people out there don't like it like that. currently, 54% on our unofficial poll is a golden brown. time to get the news, travel and weather wherever you are. good morning. you're watching bbc london news. i'm claudia—liza armah.

scotland yard is investigating a number of alleged hate crime incidents targeting thejewish community in north london over the weekend. in one case, a brick covered in swastikas was thrown through the window of a home on hillside gardens in edgware. police are also examining three other incidents in the area. at this stage it's not known whether the they're all linked. hs2, the high speed rail link connecting london to birmingham, is expected to get the green light from transport bosses in the coming days. the new line could take passengers from eu5ton to the midlands in 49 minutes. campaigners have raised concerns about potential damage to the environment, but those behind the development are confident that wildlife won't suffer. we touch on the special scientific interest. we have a plan for about four hectares of wetlands recreation and restoration. there won't be the concerns that the wildlife trust are worried about. inside out london have been

6:58 am
let's have a check on the weather now, with kate kin5ella. good morning. it's another very cold start. temperatures below zero, so another widespread frost this morning, but also some very foggy conditions. the met office has issued a yellow weather warning. visibility considerably reduced and we run the risk of this fog freezing as well, so some very dangerous driving conditions this morning. quite stubborn. it will take its time to lift. a fair amount of cloud. a couple of brighter spells and maybe a glimmer of sunshine. the maximum temperatures between 2—4, so feeling cold throughout the day. 0vernight, very similar conditions to last night. quite a lot of cloud. the mist and fog develops again, so another murky night, some dense patches of fog. temperatures not as cold, but down to zero, so another frost tomorrow morning. so a misty and murky start to tuesday. high pressure still dominates, which means not much in the way of wind. so that mist and fog won't go far quickly. a misty and murky day on the whole
6:59 am
and another cold one. that cloud not lifting, so the maximum temperature for tuesday, under the cloud and fog, just three celsius. to feel the benefits of economic growth. imean i mean warrington today to find out. called for the calls for the government to give a full explanation to parliament about a reported misfire of a trident missile. a warning from the food standards agency that overcooked foods like toast and potatoes could increase the risk of developing cancer. it started as a small group of villages but now contributes billions to the economy — the post—war new town milton keynes is 50 years old today. in sport, ryan mason is in a stable condition in hospital after surgery overnight the hull city midfielder suffered a fractured skull in a clash of heads with gary cahill during their 2—0 defeat at chelsea. foggy start for parts of the uk.
7:00 am
carol has the weather. in a clash of heads with gary cahill during their 2—0 defeat at chelsea. foggy start for parts of the uk. carol has the weather. good morning. it certainly is. we have got sick, dense fog across parts of southern england. it is freezing as well. it will take quite a long time before it lifts. we also have patchy fog affecting other parts of the uk, that will slowly lift. and the others, a slight —— dry day. i will have more details in 15 minutes. good morning. first, our main story. prime minister, theresa may will today announce her plans for boosting industry in britain. she'll be outlining a strategy, which she says will give the government a new, more active role. it will be unveiled at a cabinet meeting in the north—west of england later. 0ur industry correspondent john moylan has more. how can the government ensure the economy is fit for the future? for the business secretary greg clark, places like this are part of the answer. it is a new automotive innovation centre in warwick, backed by government and industry money, designed to keep our carmakers firing on all cylinders. the industrial strategy will be
7:01 am
committed to driving very hard, to spread the opportunities right across the country and to drive, notjustjobs but really good, well paying jobs in all parts of the country. it will be a big part of our strategy. today, the strategy will be outlined in a new green paper, aimed at kickstarting a wide—ranging consultation on the government's new vision. that will include plans for sector deals where businesses and stakeholders in specific sectors can make the case for government support. that is just one of ten so—called strategic pillars which are all designed to increase productivity and drive growth. in the past, governments used industrial strategies as an excuse to back key firms or industries. it didn't always work. as we prepare for the challenge of leaving the eu, the big test of this plan will be that it doesn'tjust deliver for successful firms like this but that it reaches out
7:02 am
to a part of the uk to deliver the government's aim of an economy that works for everybody. john moylan, bbc news. the labour party is calling on theresa may to make a statement to parliament clarifying whether she she knew about a reported trident missile misfire before a vote to renew the system. the prime minister told the bbc she has "full faith" in the trident programme. 0ur political correspondent tom bateman is in westminster. tom, how serious is this for the pm? some real questions to answer. these trident tests take place only a few —— every few years. previous tests have had a blaze of publicity videos released online but this one took place, and unarmed missile that was launched from a submarine off the coast of the united states last
7:03 am
summer. we heard nothing about it. the apparent misfire that took place, the reports that the missile veered off course. a few weeks later, theresa may stood up in front of the mp5 and asked them to back the spend of £43 billion. she was asked whether she knew about the misfire stood here is what she had to say. do you know the miss by had occurred? i to say. do you know the miss by had occurred ? i have to say. do you know the miss by had occurred? i have absolute faith in our trident missiles. i think we should defend our country, play our role in nato with an independent nuclear dip role in nato with an independent nucleardip —— role in nato with an independent nuclear dip —— deterrent. rola did you know? the issue we were talking about in the house of commons was important. whether or not we should renew trident and have a replacement trident. that's what we were talking about in the house of commons will stop the pop house of commons voted for. i believe in defending our country. jeremy corbyn does not want
7:04 am
to defend our country with an independent nuclear deterrent. we heard from the shadow defence secretary leigh griffiths a few moments ago saying the prime minister mr moments ago saying the prime ministeer b moments ago saying the prime minister mr b upfront and honest —— needs to be. they think there are no questions about trident‘s capability and effectiveness. government scientists are advising that starchy foods like toast and potatoes are not cooked beyond a golden colour to reduce the risk of developing cancer. the food standards agency's "go for gold" campaign says over—browning food for more flavour and crunch increases a carcinogenic molecule called acrylamide. our health correspondent robert pigott reports. the warning includes some of the most popular foods in the british diet, such as crisps, chips, cakes and biscuits. the longer they're cooked above 120 celsius, the more acrylamide they contain. those foods go through a browning process, which many of us
7:05 am
like in terms of flavour and taste, but it also produces this acrylamide. the sugars in starchy foods such as your breakfast toast combine with the molecules that make up protein to produce acrylamide that can damage the dna in cells. we know that in animal studies it can create cancer and so we are concerned if there is the same mechanism in people that high exposure could increase people's risk. the fsa says people should go for gold, aiming for gold and yellow in baking, roasting, frying or toasting rather than something darker. it says eating a balanced diet rich in vegetables will guard against cancer. cancer research uk says acrylamide might be harmful to people but insists there are other far bigger proven dangers — being obese, drinking too much and especially smoking. the white house says it's in the initial stages of discussions about moving the us embassy in israel from tel aviv to jerusalem. president donald trump
7:06 am
and the israeli prime minister, benjamin neta nyahu, discussed by phone on sunday the palestinian peace process and iran. mr netanyahu has also accepted an invitation to visit washington next month, talking of a "common vision" for the region. talks aimed at resolving the syrian conflict are due to begin this morning. for the first time the negotiations will include representatives of armed syrian rebels. 0ur chief international correspondent, lyse doucet, joins us from astana in kazakhstan where the talks are taking place. lyse how significant are these talks? rate to speak to you to gain. talk us rate to speak to you to gain. talk us through who is there and how significant this could be. great to speak to you. i'm sure it's not usual that bbc breakfast comes to you live from astana. new venue, new sponsors. this time it is russia who backs the syrian government, turkey
7:07 am
which backs the rebels and around, of course, also a key government back. the people inside this venue out of this freezing cold weather, i have to say, at the opposition side, are the men with the guns. the armed opposition groups. it is the first time they are leading the delegation to talk. if they do in fact talk face—to—face, with the syrian government. this is a totally new effort to resolve the very old problems about how do you bring an end to the war? there is a ceasefire in place but it each is shaky. how to get food to the millions of people who need it crossing the front lines and howl, if ever, do you bring about a political solution toa you bring about a political solution to a six—year—old devastating war? —— how old do you. —— howl. police say one man has been arrested after an officer was shot in belfast last night. the officer is in a stable condition after being hit twice in the arm when a number of shots were fired from a car

skyline in the middle east, and the city's firefighters could soon be issued with jet packs to help them tackle blazes in high—rise buildings. footage released by the dubai civil defence shows firefighters using the kit to rise above a bridge by using water pressure from a jet ski. the innovative system, which is called dolphin, is also aimed at reducing response times by avoiding heavy traffic on the roads. you up—to—date with news. and keep all of your comments coming about toast. the government is set to unveil a more interventionist, industrial strategy which it says will boost the economy and create more jobs. for more on what this could mean for business and industry we can speak to greg clark, the secretary of state for business, energy and industrial strategy,
7:11 am
who is here in the studio, good morning. 84 coming in. good to see you. these announcements, we should see, how much change is likely to happen? what we need to do at the moment, especially with brexit in mind, is to think of the long. how we will make a living in the future. i think the way to do that is to businesses, workers, people with an interest in this, to work with us. it has everybody in view. we want to consult. we need to make this set of policies that people can count on for many years to come. there was talk of £556 million being made available this northern powerhouse. if their new money. —— is their new

money? what one thing we are putting forward is technical skills, for example. we have good universities, "and in schools but in the middle, people who perhaps don't go to university and don't get the same level of technical education, in terms of the practical skills that our competitors do. what we are proposing is that we invest in new technology. what we have said is if you look at our competitors, they get more hours of training in further education than we do. we are identifying this as something we think we should improve on our performance. have you created the problem? there performance. have you created the problem ? there has performance. have you created the problem? there has been know the emphasis of university courses. that is what industry we have spoken to
7:13 am
on the programme have been telling us. on the programme have been telling us. we haven't been as good recently in technical. why has that been put to the back of the queue?” in technical. why has that been put to the back of the queue? i think our universities are some of the best in the world. 0ettl who never had a chance to go to university now can but i think you are right. —— people. we haven't had the alternative of being able to learn practical skills, technical skills, in industries where there is a big demand. i think it is time to address that for a long time. you've mentioned brexit in the first answer you made. talking about coming out of the single market, is that going to affect trade? what you are talking about today will be hugely affected by brexit. will that not be affected by brexit. will that not be a majorfactor? affected by brexit. will that not be a major factor? these changes we would want to make anyway. you should have view as how you are going to be able to earn your
7:14 am
future. every person and every company does that. we would need to. in the context of brexit it is right. because we know we have to compete and have the chance to compete and have the chance to compete with countries are round the world. it's an increasingly competitive world. —— around the world. we are less than even our neighbours, france and germany, for example. that is something we need to address. there is another aspect as well. we are a very centralised country. many decisions get made in london but we don't have a uniform prosperity, if i can put it that way. one of your reports from warrington earlier in the programme, i think we need to have a better influence for local decision—makers who know what is needed to be done locally and what is needed in warrington is likely to be different to london and plymouth. can't have
7:15 am
you here this morning without asking you here this morning without asking you about trident and what theresa may did not say yesterday. speaking to the shadow defence secretary this morning. she said she must have known about the misfiring when she made those comments. surely that is the case, isn't it? if that is the case, should we have known about that? for obvious reason, there is a policy that we do not comment on the operations, including the tests, of our nuclear all it is why did she give the answer yesterday? -- why did she not? you would expect that they go under test the whole time. i do not think it is right to give a commentary every time as an is something that has gone wrong and something that has gone wrong and something that has gone wrong and something that will cost this country something that will cost this cou ntry £40 something that will cost this country £40 billion. surely that will be made known to mp5 before they voted and the wider general
7:16 am
public about something that lots of people are concerned about. public about something that lots of people are concerned aboutm public about something that lots of people are concerned about. if you have a policy, you have a good reason. you have tests all the time. 0bviously, that is sensitive information to enemies, the very people that we have this protection against. i think you have to abide by that policy. that you don't, everytime there is a test, metacommentary on it. if you do that, you have to stick by it. again, isee that, you have to stick by it. again, i see where you are coming from but for the amount of money thatis from but for the amount of money that is spent and will be spent on trident. you say there is no commentary when something went wrong. something went fundamentally wrong. something went fundamentally wrong and i understand the security issues around it, but when something has gone wrong and we are spending such a huge amount of money on it, surely should have mentioned it. irra the point is that across all of the areas, lots of tests are made.
7:17 am
—— the point is. when it comes to individual tests, if you have a policy that you don't comment on that each time one takes place, however tempting and convenient it might be, you have to stick to the policy. the prime minister will meet donald trump this week. will you talk about in the cabinet meeting today? advice on what she should say at the way she should go about that first meeting with the new president? it is very encouraging and significant that the first global leader that donald trump is going to meet his the prime minister. they've already had conversations on the telephone, as you know. they've got a lot to talk about, including how we can forge better trade links, but security is one of the things that unites as strongly. again it is very encouraging that they've been having a conversation to reflect that
7:18 am
strength of that special relationship. so the prime minister has a lot of things to talk about. in cabinet we will talk about all of the different aspects. i think it's great that she will have the chance to have those discussions with donald trump. good to talk to you this morning. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. lots of you probably having issues with the fog and ice. carol has all of the details. there is fog and widespread frost and the risk of ice. lovely weather watchers pictures sent in this morning. you can see the frost on the roads. we've also got mist and fog patches. fog in greater london. notjust greater london, a lot of fog around this morning, especially in southern counties. dense in some parts. visibility about 50 metres. it is causing problems with the airports. check the flight before you leave if
7:19 am
you are heading out. you can find out more details on your bbc local radio station and the travel pages as well. temperatures below freezing in many parts of the uk and we have the freezing fog as well. some of it is patchy, which can do it you in a false sense of security because it is thick in places. not so much in the south—west of england, but we have patchy fog in wales and north—west england. northern ireland, mostly fog free, but cold. temperatures down to —6 in places. scotland, a lot of cloud, which is giving way to clear skies, so the temperature has dropped. widespread frost again. patchy fog across the central lowla nds patchy fog across the central lowlands and southern uplands. across the pennines, into north—east england, we also have patchy fog. the vale of york, it could be slow to clear. in the south it will take
7:20 am
longer to clear. some lifting into low cloud. if you are stuck under either of those things it will feel cold. temperatures struggling. away from the fog, beautiful day. sunshine, bright spells and temperature still nippy, 5—8. later in the day the wind picks up in northern ireland and western scotland. some rain comes our way. with that in the west we shouldn't have any fog issues. away from western areas, through the rest of wales, central and eastern england, back into fog and frost. widespread frost. freezing fog which tomorrow morning will take longer to clear thanit morning will take longer to clear than it has today. some of it not lifting the —— at all. as the weather front bears the rain across scotla nd weather front bears the rain across scotland and northern ireland, it gets into northern england and northwest wales. it will be producing patchy light rain and drizzle. the highest temperatures towards the west. again, feeling
7:21 am
cold in central and eastern areas, especially under the fog. a5 cold in central and eastern areas, especially under the fog. as we move into wednesday, things start to change. you can see from the isobars it will turn windier and we have an atla ntic it will turn windier and we have an atlantic front coming in and bringing rain. by the end of the weekend or this week it will turn a little bit milder than it has been of late. thanks very much. a cluster of rural villages in the mid—‘605, milton keynes was conceived 50 years ago as a brand new town to ease the housing shortages in london. in the decades that followed it became the uk's fastest growing economy, and while some people associate it w —— associated with endless roads and roundabouts, those who live there have a very different view. graham satchell went to see how the town is evolving. milton keynes, this is our home... milton keynes, a place of our own. a love song to milton keynes. lizzie moved here in 1968. milton keynes, takes life in its
7:22 am
stride. i don't think i have spoken to somebody who lives here who has said they don't like living here or they regret moving here. they get it and they realise what a fantastic place it is to be. a beautiful name for a lovely village. milton keynes was the last of the post—war new towns, a collection of villages halfway between london and birmingham. it would become home to 250,000 people. the big inspiration behind milton keynes is an american urban design called melbourne weather, we wanted to create community without propinquity. —— melbourne weather. that meant lots of people together but not densely packed in. from the airyou can see but not densely packed in. from the air you can see it, agreed, each square air you can see it, agreed, each square a air you can see it, agreed, each square a community with no real centre. an american—style town. built in the master plan were principles. 0ne built in the master plan were principles. one was freedom of choice. if you think about the grid it always gives you the options ken baker was part of the original
7:23 am
design team 50 years ago. milton keynes has the choice and the grid. the grid gives freedom? yes. maybe, but on the ground milton keynes can feel uninspiring. big roads and roundabouts means you can drive through it and not really see it or notice it. critics of milton keynes have been brutal. francis tybalt, the great urban designer, called it bland, rigid, sterile and totally boring. and while some do hate it, milton keynes is surprising. it has 180 miles off parts and cycle tracks, the fastest growing economy in the uk. 22 million trees and shrubs. this man has taken a series of photographs called unexpected milton keynes. —— this woman. of photographs called unexpected milton keynes. -- this woman. it's a fantastic place to live. it has 40% green space. the parks and gardens
7:24 am
are green space. the parks and gardens a re lovely. green space. the parks and gardens are lovely. and it is an absolutely brilliant place to build a business, grow a family, anything you want to do. the government has announced 14 new garden towns and villages, so can they learn lessons from milton keynes? isn't part of the original master plan of milton keynes. keynes? isn't part of the original master plan of milton keynesm keynes? isn't part of the original master plan of milton keynes. it is very narrow. . . master plan of milton keynes. it is very narrow... milton keynes itself is expanding rapidly. campaign is a new developments are to densely populated and the original principles of the town have been lost. mayo pick people with the wrong agenda who don't realise the greatness of what they've got, it is being copied all over the world. but here they are busy destroying it. loveit here they are busy destroying it. love it or hate it, nothing with the open spaces, the high—minded design principles, has been tried since and 50 yea rs principles, has been tried since and 50 years on nothing like it is
7:25 am
planned today. that is a rather lovely site. we will be talking about post later. i've driven around milton keynes. i think most people have. and? graham makes a good point, you can drive through it without feeling like you've been there. still to come on breakfast: a 21st century update for the ‘905 cult classic, trainspotting. we catch up with the stars of danny boyle's sequel t2 as they hit the orange carpet at last night's premiere in edinburgh. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning. you're watching bbc london news. i'm claudia—liza armah. detectives are investigating a number of alleged hate crime incidents targeting thejewish community in north london over the weekend. in one case, a brick covered in swastikas was thrown through the window of a home on hillside gardens in edgware. police are also examining three other incidents in the area. at this stage it's not known whether the they're all linked.

7:28 am
the maximum temperatures between 2—4, so feeling cold throughout the day. 0vernight, very similar conditions to last night. quite a lot of cloud. the mist and fog develops again, so another murky night, some dense patches of fog. temperatures not as cold, but down to zero, so another frost tomorrow morning. so a misty and murky start to tuesday. high pressure still dominates, which means not much in the way of wind. so that mist and fog won't go far quickly. a misty and murky day on the whole and another cold one. that cloud not lifting, so the maximum temperature for tuesday, under the cloud and fog, just three celsius. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to dan and louise. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin.

had not been right to release the information about the test. had not been right to release the information about the testm had not been right to release the information about the test. if you have a policy, you have it for a good reason. you have tests all the time and obviously that sensitive information to our enemies, to the very people that we have this protection against. so you have to abide by that policy, that you don't, every time there's a test, metacommentary on it, and if you do that and i think you've got to stick either. government scientists are advising that starchy foods like toast and potatoes are not cooked beyond a golden colour to reduce the risk of developing cancer. the food standards agency's go for gold campaign says over—browning food for more flavour and crunch produces a potentially harmful compound called acrylamide. it also recommends that raw potatoes are not stored in the fridge. the clarification, we're not telling

been enjoying the hospitality.” love the way he did it with a flourish. i think he was having a really good day. i am going to do my next sport bulletin in the next style. you have a bit of time. thank you, sally. samsung says faulty batteries are what caused some of its galaxy note 7 smartphones to catch fire, leading to a worldwide recall of the device last year. after investigating what went wrong, the korean electronics giant has apologised, and said it has learned lessons from what happened. the first reports of samsung note 75 exploding while charging emerged in august last year, less than a week after they first went on sale.
7:39 am
the company recalled two and a half million devices on the second of september, and put them back on sale with batteries made by a different company a month later but the problems continued and less than two months after it launched the note seven, samsung told customers to stop using it for safety reasons and they stopped making it altogether. joining us now is digital marketing and technology expert, dan sodergren. lovely to see you again. we have been talking about it. what went wrong question mark on the mac couple of friends were smiling at about it. —— what went wrong? . people were talking about maybe this isa people were talking about maybe this is a cry for help. of course, it is not the case. it is simply the batteries. they were not made particularly well. the compartment that sam sumyk made might not have been big enough. —— samsung. because
7:40 am
of that, they made it a bit smaller, tried to cram in a bit too much technology and that could have been a problem. they are really saying it is the batteries fault. —— battery's. do you think this may have been rushed through and perhaps be not tested as successfully as it should have had been done? 0nce be not tested as successfully as it should have had been done? once they knew it was a problem, it came back quickly again. absolutely. can't say they don't test enough and they didn't race at three because they only do two releases per year. it is not as though they did a third release and that was the problem. maybe there was too much technology. they have said they learnt their lesson. i thought on this is really, they were lessons they should have already known. batteries are known for problems. they should have had this in place beforehand. i don't think it'sjust this in place beforehand. i don't think it's just technology being rushed through that maybe we should be thinking more about the human
7:41 am
cost tha n be thinking more about the human cost than that just the profit. samsung is a very profitable company. it is still going up, it is going well. realistically, we should be talking about human cost as well. this has got to be pretty damaging for them. even though it is one product. in a strange way, you kind of hope so. we are quite fickle as consumers. this is a little bit like football teams. we have our favourites and we stick with it, no matter what happens. a5 favourites and we stick with it, no matter what happens. as soon as the galaxy eight comes along, it will be all forgotten. it is 3 million phones. statistically is that a huge number? we have to be careful. there are other product in the world that go on fire statistically a little bit more. of course, samsung makes a huge number of products, notjust phones. to fear from a samsung point of view, you are in there looking at televisions and you see the name and you think hold on a minute, don't
7:42 am
their phones explode? that is the sort of damage. yorker set of a brand halo. —— the opposite. i don't think we will fill the brand effect until maybe the next couple of cycles. i had to be agnostic. i was literally pulling it in thinking oh, didi literally pulling it in thinking oh, did i leave it on charge? should i? i didn't. even you are slightly sceptical. tell us a bit about batteries in the technology because that seems to be... that we have seen so many that seems to be... that we have seen so many leaps in technology with phones. it is the bulk of the problem but there was an aggressive design problem as well. it might not have been the batteries but the spacing. the battery life in phones is like a
7:43 am
secret war that is going on at the moment. it is the case with a lot of technology stock is the battery life thatis technology stock is the battery life that is a big one. these new batteries that are now bendable and other things, that is where you will see that huge technology leaps will stop they will come around battery life and would you can do with batteries. we are talking about them being waterproof now. that will be the next godsend. i dropped my phone ina swimming the next godsend. i dropped my phone in a swimming pool. most people drop them in the toilet, don't they? a p pa re ntly them in the toilet, don't they? apparently at the chlorine that causes most of the damage. can you put it in a bag of rice? with chlorine that doesn't work. we have digressed! thank you. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. the main stories this morning: theresa may is due to to outline the government's new industrial strategy for post—brexit britain, with investment in technology,
7:44 am
research and training. ministers are coming under increasing pressure to reveal what they knew about a reported misfire during a trident missile test. if you've just pulled back the curtain this morning and thinking, what on earth is that outside? carol can give us the latest. especially foggy in certain parts of the uk this morning? that's right. we have dense fog around. the weather watchers have been sending us some fabulous pictures. this one from london. this is frosty as well, so watch out for ice as well. fog could be an issue for you when you are travelling. it has already affected flights at some southern airports and we have it across southern parts of england especially as well. some of it is dense, visibility down to 50 metres and some of it is patchy. we have dense patch, then it clears, then we have more fog. the other thing is
7:45 am
air pollution across parts of eastern england, greater london and the south—east is very high today and that comes from defra. travel wise, freezing fog, so do take extra care. further travel disruption is likely. you can find out more about where you are from a busy local radio station or your bbc travel pages. some of the fog will be slow to lift and some of it would lift at all. with temperatures already freezing in some areas, are below, here it will feel especially cold. at the moment it is —5 in exeter, but dry. moving across wales we have showers at the moment, but they will tend to fade, then we run back into fog, pockets of fog, in north—west england, are largely dry in northern ireland, but cold. temperatures in the west is down to —5 four minus six. in scotland with had a lot of
7:46 am
cloud, which is giving way to clearer skies. widespread frost again and pockets of fog in the central lowlands and southern uplands, then more fog in the pennines and into north—east england. the vale of york. it will be slow to clear in the south and if you are stuck in an area where it is just lifting in the low cloud, temperatures will struggle even to break freezing. elsewhere, temperatures will struggle even to breakfreezing. elsewhere, away temperatures will struggle even to break freezing. elsewhere, away from the fog, a fine, crisp winter day. later in the day the wind is going to strengthen across northern ireland and western scotland and then a weather front will arrive, bringing rain. ahead of that a lot of cloud building, away from the west of england and wales we once again have a widespread frost and some fog patches forming. they will be slow to clear tomorrow morning. some of them weren't clear at all. meanwhile, the rain moves across the rest of scotland and northern ireland, in the north wales and northern england, and patchy rain
7:47 am
comes in and drizzle. no heat wave in prospect, unless you are in the west, where we have highs of 10—11. but towards the end of the week it turns milder and we lose the fog risk. before you go, i know fog is a big issue today. you know you are the best weather centre in the country. how many times have you won that gong? eight. you know what you are doing them. so we will see you on wednesday for the awards, because we are upfor wednesday for the awards, because we are up for some awards. we need everybody who votes for you to vote for all of us! see you on wednesday. let's make carol wheat and other award as part of the bbc brea kfast tea m. and other award as part of the bbc breakfast team. —— wind and other award. as we've been hearing, the prime minister is due to outline how she plans to intervene more to help british businesses as part of a new industrial strategy.

ben's out and about at a fuel processing plant in warrington to find out what companies want to hear. good morning. good morning. good morning. good morning to both of you. yes, they want to hear a lot and they are keen to get some detail from theresa may when she speaks me here later today. as you say, we are at this oil processing plant and we are here to see all of the stuff they do. motorcycle oil, machinery oil, all of the stuff that keeps the gears of manufacturing moving. this is the important point, it is made in england. many suggest we do too little manufacturing in the uk at the moment, so what we are expecting to hear from the the moment, so what we are expecting to hearfrom the pm later the moment, so what we are expecting to hear from the pm later is a template plant to get us manufacturing more staff and improving skills, research and development and all that sort of stuff in the uk. but what difference would it make for business and what do they want to hear this week from the prime minister? good morning. what do you want to hear from the

prime minister later? some would say the government shouldn't be too involved in business, they should let successful businesses like yours get on with it. for a mature business like ours, we want to get on with what we do. but the other aspect we want to hear is the skills gap, which has to be met. we will see that in trading so when people come to our place they can start from day one, rather than six months down the line. in your local enterprise partnership, what will you use the money you've had in the past four and how will you put the new money to good use? we have already had £150 million from previous groups. we've used that money for the bus station, a bypass, if you look down the m62 those logistical warehouses are there because we built a road to enable those sites to be opened up for employment. in some cases it is
7:50 am
relatively easy stuff, putting in a road or extra bus route. those are the things that make people get jobs. yes, they are the enable us. we are hoping from the money the chancellor announced in the statement that we can open more projects, more sites for more businesses and more housing. that idea of skills is really important, it is about getting the right people for thejobs it is about getting the right people for the jobs you've it is about getting the right people for thejobs you've got it is about getting the right people for the jobs you've got available at both ends, either the entrance level or the high skill level, so you've then spent time and money before they can even start work. absolutely. we want people ready to work on day one, so they can use the machines and understand how they work. right up to senior management positions. they need the basic skills to work in a manufacturing environment and understand the processes they are managing. thanks very much. we will be here all morning finding out what business makes of this and crucially how all
7:51 am
of that will be implemented. it is one thing to hear the announcement from the prime minister, but what she intends to do and how she will implement it across the economy... we will hear this from theresa may later, that she wants all people in all corners of the country to feel the benefit from economic growth are and of course as we've heard that hasn't always been the case. so she is trying to address some of that. we will get the detail later. thanks, ben. it was the film that defined the cool britannia era, and made household names of its cast. more than 20 years later, the sequel to trainspotting has finally arrived. t2 trainspotting had its world premiere in edinburgh last night. 0ur entertainment correspondent colin paterson was there. after more than 20 years, the trainspotting gang back together, on the orange carpet of the long—awaited sequel. hello, mark. what have you been up to for the last 20 years? we had a real duty not to disappoint people because the film has
7:52 am
affection in people's hearts, so you don't want to ruin it and tarnish that image, so i hope we haven't done that. aside from all the fun stuff in the first movie, i think people found it relatable. even though it was maybe about subjects they weren't involved in, it was still relatable in some way. it's carrying such a cultural weight associated with it that it feels like no event that i've been to before. choose life, choose a job, choose a career... trainspotting was the defining film of mid—‘905 cool britannia. the movie poster was on students' walls, the soundtrack in cd players. for the sequel, ewan mcgregor‘s famous speech has had an update. choose life, choose facebook, twitter, instagram, and hope that someone, somewhere, cares. there's something very deep and moving about finding out
7:53 am
where they all are now, and there aren't many films that i've done, and there aren't very many that we've seen, where the characters become almost like people we know. it is fair to say the four guys have lived the bet. how do you think they have aged? there was always a moment in every shooting day where there was that 20 years later moment, where you felt 20 years had gone by since you was last playing this guy. detox the system. what does that even mean? it doesn't mean anything. it isn't getting out of your body that's the problem, it's getting out of your mind. you're an addict. you think i haven't heard that 100,000 times? so, be addicted. but be addicted to something else. after trainspotting came out we were like the oasis of the movies in britain. we represented brit pop movies. so there was a part of me that yearns for that again,
7:54 am
i suppose. and he might not be finished with the role. the cast are already talking about trainspotting 3, using irvine welsh‘s latest novel as a starting point. we think the chances are good. i mean...i think irvine's just arrived now. i'm up for it, he's up for it, so i don't think you've seen the last of begbie just yet. why is ewan mcgregor wearing a hat? that's because he is filming the series three of fargo at the moment, in which he plays twins and he needs to wear two wigs. he has no hair, that's why he's wearing a hat at the
7:55 am
moment. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning. you're watching bbc london news. i'm claudia—liza armah. detectives are investigating a number of alleged hate crime incidents targeting thejewish community in north london over the weekend. in one case, a brick covered in swastikas was thrown through the window of a home on hillside gardens in edgware. police are also examining three other incidents in the area. at this stage it's not known whether the they're all linked. hs2, the high speed rail link connecting london to birmingham, is expected to get the green light from transport bosses in the coming days. the new line could take passengers from eu5ton to the midlands in 49 minutes. campaigners have raised concerns about potential damage to the environment, but those behind the development are confident that wildlife won't suffer. we touch on the special scientific interest. we have a plan for about four hectares of wetlands recreation and restoration. there won't be the concerns that the wildlife trust are worried about.
7:56 am
inside out london have been weighing up the arguments. tune in at 7:30 tonight, on bbc one. let's have a look at the travel situation now. a few issues on thejubilee line. there are now minor delays, because of train shortages. there are also minor delays on the district line. that's from earls court between richmond and ealing broadway. good service on the rest of the line. and on london 0verground, that's part suspended between romford and upminster while they fix a train. while there are also severe delays between surrey quays and clapham junction. 0n the railways, south west trains has a significantly reduced service through to wimbledon this morning while emergency repairs take place to a damaged rail. 0n the roads, the a12 has one lane closed just before the blackwall tunnel. that's because of a burst water main. it is really quite foggy at the
7:57 am
moment, which is causing huge delays on flights. around 100 have been cancelled at heathrow, so do check before you travel. let's have a check on the weather now, with kate kin5ella. good morning. it's another very cold start. temperatures below zero, so another widespread frost this morning, but also some very foggy conditions. the met office has issued a yellow weather warning. visibility considerably reduced and we run the risk of this fog freezing as well, so some very dangerous driving conditions this morning. quite stubborn. it will take its time to lift. a fair amount of cloud. a couple of brighter spells and maybe a glimmer of sunshine. the maximum temperatures between 2—4, so feeling cold throughout the day. 0vernight, very similar conditions to last night. quite a lot of cloud. the mist and fog develops again, so another murky night, some dense patches of fog. temperatures not as cold, but down to zero, so another frost tomorrow morning. so a misty and murky start to tuesday. high pressure still dominates, which means not much in the way of wind. so that mist and fog won't go far quickly. a misty and murky day on the whole
7:58 am
and another cold one. that cloud not lifting, so the maximum temperature for tuesday, under the cloud and fog, just three celsius. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. the prime minister announces a new plan for industry in post—brexit britain. theresa may says the government is stepping up to a new active role in business. the prime minister once people in all corners of the country to feel the benefits of economic growth. but what does it mean for business, our jobs, what does it mean for all of
7:59 am
us? i'm in warrington to find out. good morning, it's monday the 23rd of january. also this morning: calls for the government to give a full explanation to parliament about a reported misfire of a trident missile. a warning from the food standards agency that overcooked foods like toast and potatoes could increase the risk of developing cancer. it started as a small group of villages, but now contributes billions to the economy — the post—war new town, milton keynes, is 50 years old today. in sport, ryan mason is in a stable condition in hospital after surgery overnight. the hull city midfielder suffered a fractured skull in a clash of heads with gary cahill, during their 2—0 defeat at chelsea. ijust wish i just wish everybody could
8:00 am
ijust wish everybody could have seen ijust wish everybody could have seen the speed with which you ran across the studio! big power slide in as well! and carol has the weather. good morning. there is quite a bit of fog around, particularly in southern counties. also fog in northern england and northern scotland. most of it will lift slowly and then it will be dry with sunny spells. more details in 15 minutes. good morning. first, our main story. plans to boost british industry will be announced by the prime minister, theresa may, later. she'll be outlining a strategy, which she says will give the government a more active role. it will be unveiled at a cabinet meeting in the north west of england. 0ur industry correspondent, john moylan, has more. how can the government ensure the economy is fit for the future? for the business secretary, greg clark, places like this are part of the answer. it is a new automotive innovation centre in warwick, backed by government and industry money, designed to keep our carmakers firing on all cylinders.
8:01 am
the industrial strategy will be committed to driving very hard, to spread the opportunities right across the country and to drive, notjustjobs, but really good, well paying jobs in all parts of the country. it will be a big part of our strategy. today, the strategy will be outlined in a new green paper, aimed at kickstarting a wide—ranging consultation on the government's new vision. that will include plans for sector deals where businesses and stakeholders in specific sectors can make the case for government support. that is just one of ten so—called strategic pillars which are all designed to increase productivity and drive growth. in the past, governments used industrial strategies as an excuse to back key firms or industries. it didn't always work. as we prepare for the challenge of leaving the eu, the big test of this plan will be that it doesn'tjust
8:02 am
deliver for successful firms like this but that it reaches out to a part of the uk to deliver the government's aim of an economy that works for everybody. the labour party is calling on theresa may to make a statement to parliament, clarifying whether she knew about a reported trident missile misfire before a vote to renew the system. the prime minister repeatedly avoided the question in an interview with her over the weekend. tom bateman is in westminster. tom, how serious is this for the pm? these test launches are pretty rare events. they take place only every few years. in the past when that trigger has been pulled, it has released not only the test missile but a certain amount of publicity about the event taking place. when this misfire happened, we heard nothing about it at all. that
8:03 am
matters politically because our? weeks after that, theresa may stored up weeks after that, theresa may stored up here and asked mp5 to back the spending of billions of pounds to renew trident. that was something she asked repeat —— she was asked repeatedly about yesterday. did you know that misfire had occurred? i have absolute faith in our trident missiles. i think we should defend our country. i think we should play our rohlin nato. did you know it had misfired? when i made that speech in the house of commons, what we were talking about was whether or not we should renew our trident. that's what we were talking about in the house of commons. that's what the house of commons. that's what the house of commons. that's what the house of commons voted for. i believe in defending our country. jeremy corbyn does not want to defend our country with a nuclear deterrent. the government has repeated its line it will not comment on the test. business
8:04 am
secretary greg clark said earlier it could give information to britain's enemies of the government were to talk about this in any detail. labour is continuing to pile on the pressure. it says ministers need to explain themselves in parliament. we can see if his body there. we will have an off —— update on that later. government scientists are warning that overcooked foods such as potatoes, toast, crisps and waffles could increase the risk of developing cancer. the food standards agency's go for gold campaign says over—browning food for more flavour and crunch produces a potentially harmful compound called acrylamide our health correspondent, robert pigott, reports. the warning includes some of the most popular foods in the british diet, such as crisps, chips, cakes and biscuits. the longer they're cooked above 120 celsius, the more acrylamide they contain. those foods go through a browning process, which many of us like in terms of flavour and taste, but it also produces this acrylamide. the sugars in starchy foods such as your breakfast toast, combine
8:05 am
with the molecules that make up protein, to produce acrylamide that can damage the dna in cells. we know that in animal studies it can create cancer, and so we are concerned if there is the same mechanism in people that high exposure could increase people's risk. the fsa says people should go for gold, aiming for gold and yellow in baking, roasting, frying or toasting rather than something darker. it says eating a balanced diet rich in vegetables will guard against cancer. cancer research uk says acrylamide might be harmful to people, but insists there are other far bigger proven dangers — being obese, drinking too much and especially smoking. the white house says it's in the initial stages of discussions about moving the us embassy in israel from tel aviv to jerusalem. the united nations does not recognise jerusalem as israel's capital.
8:06 am
israelis and palestinians both claim jerusalem as their capital city, and palestinian leaders have warned that moving the us embassy would destroy the peace process. police say one man has been arrested after an officer was shot in belfast last night. the officer is in a stable condition after being hit twice in the arm, when a number of shots were fired from a car on the crumlin road in the north of the city. the northern ireland secretary, james brokenshire, said the attack was sickening. this incident underlines the risks that they take an equally, the nature of some of the challenges we continue to see in northern ireland. people will use violence to achieve their twisted, or advance their rents. —— summer ends. this has no place in northern ireland. the political engagement, the peace process, we stand absolutely behind. dense fog and widespread frost are causing travel disruption in the south east of england, as temperatures plunge
8:07 am
below zero this morning. this is the scene in central london this morning. there is the palace of westminster. around 100 flights out of heathrow airport have been cancelled, with a further 15 grounded at london city airport. you can hardly even see big ben. we we re you can hardly even see big ben. we were struggling to see the clock this morning in the darkness. real fog across london and other parts of the uk. we have got another shot as well. you can see vaguely the spire of the church. this is where carol sometimes does the weather from. the top of new broadcasting house in central london. normally you can see down the street. clearly not today. if you are out and about, do take care. carroll will have all the details. it's quite extraordinary. drivers have been urged to prepare for poor conditions on the roads.
8:08 am
talks aimed at resolving the syrian conflict are due to begin this morning. the negotiations have the backing of russia and iran. for the first time the negotiations will include representatives of armed syrian rebels. 0ur chief international correspondent, lyse doucet, joins us from astana in kazakhstan, where the talks are taking place. we talked about the significance of this because syrian government will meet with rebel forces for the first time. what chance of some sort of success ? time. what chance of some sort of success? even that little measure of success? even that little measure of success is not 100% advance. wejust spoke to the spokesperson for the syrian opposition, which is made up of the rebel commanders. he says this is what it will be on the agenda. it will be ceasefire, which
8:09 am
is partially holding in syria. humanitarian aid to get to millions of people living in besieged areas. release of prisoners. will they do that directly with the syrian government? he said they will sit together around the same table, but when it gets to the talks, they will be at different tables in different rooms and they will be mediated. the old hostilities, the old obstacles to ending the syrian war, have not gone away. we are in kazakhstan for the first time. the sponsors are different. russia, turkey and iran. the people at the table are different. the same old problems are rearing their head from the start. thank you very much. no fog in asta la. a police crackdown on motorists who illegally use mobile phones at the wheel, resulted in nearly 8,000 drivers being caught in the space of seven days. 36 forces took part in the operation in november. the national police chiefs council has released the figures, as a new operation gets under way today.
8:10 am
if you are a firefighter at this morning, how do you feel about doing your work with a jet pack? this has been trialled in dubai. this is what they are using to elevate themselves. in the middle east what they are using ourjet packs to help them rise up like this one to address a proposed fire on a bridge. it isa address a proposed fire on a bridge. it is a bizarre sight. it looks incredibly weird and futuristic. incredibly distracting. but if it works, it works. you have to be incredibly skilled to do that. i am worried about driving past. they are trialling it. they say it will be so difficult with traffic sometimes using yourjet ski to get around. it is the future. the weather in five minutes. a5
8:11 am
the weather in five minutes. as we have already told you, there is so much fog out there. people are talking about toast today as well. thank you for the pictures you have sent in. fog and toast are the major talking points. how do you like your toast in the morning? if you prefer it well—browned, government scientists are advising a lighter shade to reduce the risk of developing cancer. the food standards agency says over—cooking starchy foods like bread and potatoes, causes an increased level of a carcinogenic molecule called acrylamide. it's launching a campaign to raise awareness. before we talk about that, we went out to discover if people are willing to sacrifice a bit of extra crunch for the sake of their health. i wouldn't eat burnt toast anyway
8:12 am
because i don't think it's very pleasant. i wouldn't be worried about getting cancer.” pleasant. i wouldn't be worried about getting cancer. i like them of it more burnt. it would be burnt toast. i would just scraped the bits of it! i like toast burnt. i would never eat burnt toast, so that's fine! if you found any food was carcinogenic you would probably stop eating it, wouldn't you?” carcinogenic you would probably stop eating it, wouldn't you? i like it golden. so there's no contest for me. so many of you talking about that. you have done a survey as well. 0nly 8% of people like that toast like this. the vast majority like it golden brown. this is particularly theissue golden brown. this is particularly the issue we are talking about this morning. simon wood is a former masterchef winner who is now a full—time chef. he's here to give us some tips on how to cook tasty food without over—browning it. and professor guy poppy is from the food standards agency. he's in our london newsroom.
8:13 am
let's start with you, guide, we have talked about this before. how serious is this as a risk?” talked about this before. how serious is this as a risk? i think what we are releasing today is, we have done a survey looking at the diet that a typical consumer in the uk eats. if you look at that as a shopping basket example, the amount of acrylic might in that diet is significantly higher than we would like. world experts, including the world health organisation, have said it would be very useful to reduce the levels of acrylamide in your diet. when is it too much? how would you know that? what we know from our studies in animals is high exposure levels can create cancer and other genetic mutations and there is no reason to believe the same isn't true in humans, but what we are talking about here is some products
8:14 am
are much more acrylamide forming than others. you mentioned starchy foods. when they are cooked and that cooking process is important because it creates the flavours and the tastes that we really like, but if they are overcooked then the amounts of acrylamide become a little bit high and it would be useful to reduce that. loads of people getting in contact. graham says, "it is the chemical acrylamide which is the problem. 0vercooking any food destroys the goodness and can cause harm. it is good to remind people of things." another viewer says, "my grandmother ate burnt toast every day and lived to 85." outside of that, let's say, perfect golden spuds. what's your advice for doing that without causing the acrylamide to form? with a potato i would make
8:15 am
a 50/50 mix and use olive oil spray than goose fat. you get the same feel for it without the over baking and excessive fat. what about if people like their toast? lots of people like their toast? lots of people are saying they do? we all make lifestyle changes in the interests of health. it is a small change to make from the benefit you can get from it, i feel. there are people furious saying toast, why are you going on about how we like our toast? when there is things like fizzy drinks and other areas which are causing far more problems and bringing diabetes into question and sugary foods and things like that, whereas these things, general knowledge and common sense can lead you not to fall into the pit falls that we are talking about here? problem with sound
8:16 am
professor, that was a question for you? what we are trying to be here is reasonable and proportionate. it would be wrong of us to be aware of this potential problem and not to say anything. but what we are saying here is if you have toast, potatoes and the occasional slices are overcooked amongst a mixed and balanced diet there will be no concern. however, if that's something that you eat regularly and is actually a principle part of your diet then it is worth making that easy, lifestyle change as the chef in your studio has mentioned. one of the other things the fsa is pointing out as well is that, simon, you shouldn't keep potatoes in the fridge, but you have got other advice with regards to vegetables?” wouldn't keep potatoes or carrots, eggs, tomatoes. it is not the way that nature intended them to be. i naturally just wouldn't that nature intended them to be. i naturallyjust wouldn't put them in there. i would cook cook them from
8:17 am
room testimony ture. thank you very much indeed. thank you both. thank you for your comments. so many of you getting in touch. you do not want to be told how to take your toast! we've all learnt that this morning! it's 8.19am and you're watching breakfast from bbc news. the main stories: theresa may is due to outline the government's new industrial strategy for post—brexit britain with investment in technology, research and training. ministers are coming under increasing pressure to reveal what they knew about a reported misfire during a trident missile test. we are telling you that toast and fog were the two major issues of fog f we've dealt with toast. let's deal with fog. good morning, carol. look at this beautiful picture from
8:18 am
the mumbles, but fog is an issue. we have quite a bit of fog across southern counties. some of it is dense. i know myself when i was driving in this morning it was so dense i couldn't see the white lines on the road. it has affected flights. we have got fog across northern and central scotland. if you are travelling, take it easy. it is freezing fog and it let to flight cancellations. keep up—to—date on your bbc local radio station. we will hang on to the fog for a long time. it is freezing fog. temperatures are below freezing at the moment and it extends over in the moment and it extends over in the direction of the south—west. but the direction of the south—west. but the south—west, although it is clear, it is cold. watch out for ice where we've got damp surfaces as wellment for wales, there is showers
8:19 am
around. they should fade. some pockets of fog. more fog across north—west england, but fog—free across northern ireland. having said that, where we have got breaks, temperatures well below freezing. it was a cloudy night across scotland. that's given way to clear skies allowing the temperature to plummet. still patchy fog across the central lowla nds still patchy fog across the central lowlands and the central uplands and we have got more fog across the pennines and across the vale of york. equally slow to clear across southern counties, but we expect it to lift. some of it into low cloud. if you're stuck in an area with stubborn fog, the temperature will be down. it will be a cold feel to the day, but for many of us, away from the fog it will be a beautiful day. sparkly, clear skies from the fog it will be a beautiful day. sparkly, clearskies forsome. a little bit of cloud for others, but it will feel cold. temperatures four to seven as well as. later on the wind picks up across northern ireland and western scotland and then we see the arrival of rain and
8:20 am
away from western parts of england and wales, all points moving east. we're looking at fog reforming and with a widespread frost again, it will be freezing fog which will take longer to clear tomorrow than we're expecting today. so again, if you're stuck under that, it will feel cold. the front moving across scotland and northern ireland weakens as it pushes into northern england and north—west wales. still producing spots of drizzle and light and patchy rain, but note the temperature contrast. but the end of the week, it is looking like we will have fewer fog problems and it will turn milder, dan and lou. carol, we will look forward to that, thank you. it was a cluster of rural villages in the mid—605, but 50 years ago today it was decided to make milton keynes a brand—new town to ease the housing shortages in london. in the decades that followed it became the uk's fastest growing economy, and while some people associate it with endless
8:21 am
roads and roundabouts, those who live there have a very different view. breakfast‘s graham satchell has been to see how the town is evolving. # milton keynes, this is our home... # milton keynes, a place of our own.# a love song to milton keynes. lizzie bancroft moved here in 1968. # milton keynes, takes life in its stride.# i don't think i have spoken to somebody who lives here who has said they don't like living here or they regretted moving here. they get it and they realise what a fantastic place it is to be. a beautiful name for a lovely village... milton keynes was the last of the post—war new towns, a collection of villages half—way between london and birmingham. it would become home to 250,000 people. the big inspiration behind milton keynes is an american urban designer called melvin webber who wanted to create community without propinquity. which basically means loads of people together, but not all densely
8:22 am
packed in. from the air you can see it, a grid, each square a community with no real centre. in the master an american—style town built for the car. in the master plan were principles. one was freedom of choice. if you think about the grid it always gives you the options. ken baker was part of the original design team 50 years ago. milton keynes has the choice and the grid. the grid gives freedom? yes. maybe, but on the ground milton keynes can feel uninspiring. big roads and roundabouts means you can drive through it and not really see it or notice it. critics of milton keynes have been brutal. francis tybalt, the great urban designer, called it "bland, rigid, sterile and totally boring". and while some do hate it, milton keynes is surprising. it has 180 miles of parks and cycle tracks, the fastest
8:23 am
growing economy in the uk. 22 million trees and shrubs. gill prince has taken a series of photographs called unexpected milton keynes. it's a fantastic place to live. it has 40% green space. the parks and gardens are lovely. it's an absolutely brilliant place to build a business, grow a family, anything you want to do. the government has announced 14 new garden towns and villages, so can they learn lessons from milton keynes? it isn't part of the original master plan of milton keynes. it's very narrow... milton keynes itself is expanding rapidly. but campaigners say new developments are too densely populated and the original principles of the town have been lost. myopic people with the wrong agenda, who don't realise the greatness
8:24 am
of what they've got. that's being copied all over the world, but here they are busy destroying it. love it or hate it nothing with the open spaces, the high—minded design principles, nothing like it's been tried since, and 50 years on nothing like it is planned today. it is rather lovely. many inquests ago maybe we wouldn't where we are now, but... toast should be dark and crispy, anything is wrong. tom says, "i like my toast pale." still to come on breakfast, a 21st century update
