direction. and eventually across western and southern areas we should see temperatures rising. some rain in the west. —— they've biscay. up to 10 degrees towards plymouth but still cold for scotland and north east england. looking at the weather into the weekend, a mixed bag. on saturday staying quiet and settled with heavy showers and some of those could fall as snow over the high ground in scotland. but by sunday some slightly colder air spreading to most parts of uk but with that the weather becomes a bit drier with some spells. so cloudy weekend with showers by sunday it is improving. soa showers by sunday it is improving. so a cold day coming up tomorrow with bitter wind coming up from the continent. a reminder of our main story this lunchtime. donald trump is to unveil his plans to build a wall with mexico, stop refugees entering the us, and tighten visa controls with predominantly muslim countries. and theresa may has said she will

match winning streak, showed just what a threat she was the six time australian open champion. not, though, when williams raises her game toa though, when williams raises her game to a level that can be competed with. two breaks in the opening set, 6-2, the with. two breaks in the opening set, 6—2, the score. but the briton bid back on the second. she saved break points, and then went 3—1 had herself. but that was as good as it got. not only did williams break back, in one of the points of the match, she actually won five games ina row match, she actually won five games in a row to take the set and the victory. it means konta run in melbourne is over. for her, it is just a start though. serena may have entered the court behind her opponent, but she left it well ahead. in the man's drawer, rafael nadal has reached a grand slam semifinal for the first time in 2.5 years. the 14 for the first time in 2.5 years. the 1a time major champion beat canada's milos raonic in straight sets. dyla n

let's find out more from our assistant political editor norman smith. there was always going to be brexit at today's session, wasn't it,? yes, and i suspect team me are feeling pretty pleased with themselves as lausanne, because you sensed it was a bit of a setup job at pmqs, with jeremy sensed it was a bit of a setup job at pmqs, withjeremy clearly lined up at pmqs, withjeremy clearly lined up and poised to ask a lot of questions about the government's apparent refusal to have a white paper on brexit. the low and behold, in answer to the first question, mrs may says, i recognise there is an appetite for a white paper, so you can have one. oral mr corbyn was left a little bit in the wilderness trying to think what to ask, given he had at least the set himself up to challenge mrs may over that white paper. take a look. article 50 wasn't about a court judgment against this government. what is signified was the bad judgment of this government, the bad judgment of prioritising corporate tax cuts over

investment in national health and social care. the bad judgment to threatening european partners whilst offering a blank cheque to president trump. the bad judgment of wanting to turn britain into a bargain basement tax saving. so, will she offer some clarity on some certainty and withdraw the threats to destroy the social structure of this country by turning us into the bargain basement she clearly threatens? rowe prime minister. same ago we will be out around the world with the eu, america, and other countries, nominating free—trade deals for this country. the right on the gentleman wants to talk about brexit. i have to say to him, he is a leader of the party. he can't even agree with his shadow chancellor about brexit. the shadow chancellor about brexit. the shadow chancellor about brexit. the shadow chancellor can't agree with the shadow brexit secretary. the shadow brexit secretary disagrees with the shadow home secretary, anna

shadow home secretary has the ring of the leader and tell him to change his mind. they dug about standing up britain. he will never speak britain. he will never speak britain. another thing that caught my eye during pmqs was mrs may's language about her forthcoming visit to washington to see donald trump, saying she was not frightened to be frank. we will mull that over with my guess, angela raynerfor labour, and ben hallett the conservatives. and allah, you said you are one of the conservatives that said we had had this white paper. but mrs may was looking to grab this white paper, it is knowledge of a climb—down, is it tee i didn't know she was going to announce that before today's premises questions, so i'm delighted with the fact we have a white paper, and it enables my constituents to be listened to, and also for the news to be fed in systematically. they'll be outrage if there wasn't a white paper, with no? every

government has produced a white paper is for mps alike at, so there would have been an outrage humour we couldn't work out a reason why there wouldn't be a white paper, and i'm very pleased that the government listen. tommy sheppard, i think we will hear from members of the scottish parliament this afternoon following that supreme court ruling yesterday. nicola sturgeon, more tough language about the possibility of a second independence referendum. isn't there a danger she is going around crying wolf endlessly? if she wants a second referendum, call it. no one is bluffing. whether or not there is a second scottish independence referendum, ithink that lies at the door of the prime minister. she treats the viewers of the scottish electorate and parliament with respect them i be no need for a scottish referendum on independence but she refuses to listen to people in scotland, the only option they have left is to

become an independent scotland in order to represent the views are people. i think it is rich for the prime minister to focus on —— to say she was focus on outcomes rather than process, when she used a theatrical stunt to announce a very important public policy, and this thing about the white paper is a u—turn. she sent david davis to enter the commons yesterday and he stood for two hours denying the need for a white paper, suddenly today, she has changed her mind. this puts the damascene conversions into perspective! let me give you a different version of today's white paper announcement. isn't really just bit of today's white paper announcement. isn't reallyjust bit of a setup sheela reddy set it enabled her to significant me embarrassed jeremy corbyn, and clearly lined up to tackle her over the white paper? well, i welcome the announcement and the climb—down by theresa may, and what was crucial was, we did me that white paper, because that is how parliamentarians can scrutinise the government, and actually, playing

parliamentary tricks in the way that theresa may is doing today, will only frustrate the process we having try to get. theresa may could have started this progress, triggering article 50, producing a white paper, some months ago. instead, she chose to use taxpayers money to fight a legal system that we really did not need to go through, so it shows her judgment is wrong, and actually, parliamentarians about this right. the other thing we learned today from number ten is they are going to publish this article 50 bill tomorrow, so we will get a site of this pared back, minimal bill that is being floated. what is this party going to do? i am confused. jeremy corbyn clearly want you to back article 50, but it seems some members of the shadow cabinet are not inclined to go along with him. what is your stance? we "clear that we respect the vote and we're coming out of europe, it is part of that white paper and part of the parliament is due to the whole house, including the art of opposition, what it means. i am an mp in greater manchester. the wanted know what the northern powerhouse

means. with respect, will you back article 50? we have said we will not go into the straight that process. that is not the same. i am asking you personally. my constituents back remain,... actually, my constituents wanted to come out of europe. i am clear that, andi come out of europe. i am clear that, and i am clear that is where we're going. but what i want to know is what she will be about immigration, what she will be about immigration, what you will be about bringing jobs to the north—west, how we're going to the north—west, how we're going to get those skills we need in our nhs. so you will back article 50? i want to know the detail before i say i'm going to go full hard, but i wa nt to say i'm going to go full hard, but i want to respect the voters are my constituency and get the best possible dealfor them. tommy sheppard, let's talk about about donald trump. theresa may pretty much saying, i will be frank with him. do you believe her? doi with him. do you believe her? do i believe her? i have no reason to disbelieve her. i'm sure she is a truthful person. but i think we will have to wait and see. she carries a very heavy responsibility, with being the first major leader to meet the new president, and i think she

has got to put down some markers, actually. she has got to say that whether it comes to trade deals anything else, the principles and values this country has long cherished in terms of our public services, our food standards and every thing else, not the sale. donald trump may want to put america first. that is his prerogative, but that does not mean that anyone else should come second. would you think theresa may's approach should be with mr trump? there are a lot of people who are even a little bit uneasy that she is the first european leader to be meeting him, and there is a sort of suggestion that we shouldn't be going cap in hand to donald trump. i think it does say something of a first meeting with donald trump is with the prime minister of great britain. at the end of the day, there is an awful lot of weight on her shoulders going along with her as the first representative from outside of the united states to meet with him. i think it is really important that she says quite clearly what brexit looks like for us clearly what brexit looks like for us and to say what we need to do in the future is to deliver a really strong leader with america, and that

is ultimately, i think, what she will do. you don't think she should sound a critical note over some of his comments, but europe, about nato, about immigration? i think she has been pretty blonde already, knowing the prime minister —— pretty blunt, i would certainly not like to disagree with her in a meeting. i think she will stand up for britain as best as she can, and do it very well. thank you for your time. very much appreciated. another big moment to note coming up, of course, on the brexit front is tomorrow, when we will get the business statement to the commons. that will also have brexit questions, and we get the publication of that bill which will determine what sort of amendments and peas tried to put down. maybe forcing what labour are calling a meaningful vote before any deal is agreed. thank you, norman. more laterfrom you. ina thank you, norman. more laterfrom you. in a moment, a summary of all the business news. first, reminder today's headlines. the prime minister, as we have

heard, says she will publish a further white paper setting out the government's plans leaving the eu. president robert mugabe ‘s big day on national security council saying we will build the wall. —— president trump is promising a big day. and man has been arrested following alleged threats against jean and man has been arrested following alleged threats againstjean miller, the woman who brought the brexit legal challenge. in the business news, sent and there is warned of a challenging year head in the uk. the weakening of the pound against the euro following the referendum vote was the cause. investment in the uk's kindest leaf 2016 after several years of strong growth. that is according to the head of the industry's trade body.

the association of motor manufacturers and traders predict a further fall manufacturers and traders predict a furtherfall in manufacturers and traders predict a further fall in investment this year. in travel stores have given wh smith a boost. they have upgraded profit forecasts for the year after shops at railway stations and airports performed well over the holiday period. sales are up 5% compared to high street stores, where sales are down 3%. if you are on a new year diet or perhaps inspired by the current clea n perhaps inspired by the current clean eating trend, it is an industry worth millions of pounds, and if your weekly shop includes things like chia seeds and coconut butter, it is not likely to be cheap. we will talk about this business of clean eating. joining me now is the healthy eating guru ella mills. at the moment, we are seeing a fall and the value of the pound and inflation creeping up in 2017. that means the price of food items are going up. how can people eat well on a budget? i think part of

the problem is that healthy eating has become so synonymous with things like you said, coconut butter and more extensive writings, but i think what we need to do instead celebrate oui’ what we need to do instead celebrate our 5—a—day campaign the simple things, iterators, carrots, oats, and trying to make editing ways to get those so that those of us who wa nt to get those so that those of us who want to live healthier and do it in a delicious way but a much more accessible way. so the industry as a whole, i know you do not like the label clean eating, but the healthy eating industry is worth a lot these days. january is the peak healthy eating month. because of social media, are reve nu es month. because of social media, are revenues is —— are consistent throughout the year? yes, we launched to delhi ‘s and the line of products, and we have not seen line of products, and we have not seen january be line of products, and we have not seenjanuary be particularly different to other months. our customers seem to want to keep that sustainability across the year, more

than an intense january detox. finding something more sustainable comes from trying to make it more delicious and interesting and a bit less like crazy january detox where you cut everything out. i think that isa you cut everything out. i think that is a positive move as well. one instagram, social media is quite dismantled to your success in your rise, as it were. they think social media is quite important the industry? absolutely. it's an interesting way to share ideas and recipes and i think people get inspiration from it. it opens a revving up and you do need to have books or dvds. you can watch video clips and see pictures, anything thatis clips and see pictures, anything that is a nice way of doing people ideas and inspiration are and accessible sense. do you think it is going to continue to be very important. in terms of the rise of clean eating, it has beenin the rise of clean eating, it has been in tandem with things like instagram. going forward, do you think there will be other ways to keep eating healthy relevant in

people's minds? i'm sure there will be, but i think social media continues to grow, the industry will grow on that. things like food lenders sell so well, because it is such a visual thing. i would be surprised if it didn't continue to grow through these platforms. and as a sort of small business owner yourself, you have grown your business considerably. what do you think has helped that. is there because there has been a general appetite for what you are doing? what are your tips for people that wa nt to what are your tips for people that want to sort of going to the industry themselves? absolutely. i think timing has been a massive thing. when i started, people seemed at the same time to be interested in eating well, and it is about finding a sustainable way of eating well rather than it being about a crash diet or an interesting way to get your five a day, which we all know we need to do, but few others do, because it is not that delicious. i think that has been a massive help, but social media has been amazing, because it is a free way of communicating what you want to do and testing things out,

testing out ideas. we get instant free feedback and what we do, and i think it is invaluable for your business as you get started. if you don't have marketing budgets, it allows you to scalable you're doing and compete with people who have budgets completely different to yours. thank you ray much. —— thank you very much. a quick look at markets before we go. after prime minister theresa may's announcement the government would publish a white paper setting out its plans for leaving the eu, sterling was up 0.5%. that is up for me. plenty more business throughout the afternoon. thank you much. a taxi driver has pleaded guilty to refusing to take a blind passenger and his guide dog. the case was brought by charles block, who was born visually impaired. mr block had booked the taxi through a firm in leicester, but was told by the driver that he could not take a dog

otherwise dry picture. some rain the western isles, but mild and highland scotland, tebbit is up to 13. overnight tonight, the breeze picks up overnight tonight, the breeze picks up and that will break up all the fog. it will stay quite cloudy and a view on patches over the pennines. the fog fit enough for occasional drizzle. snowflakes falling from cloud. a relatively mild night in northern ireland. we good season patches of frost over scotland, and england in way, despite the rather cloudy skies. temperature is getting down to minus five degrees also in the coldest spots. a lot of cloud around to start the day on thursday. thick enough for the snowflake and spit of drizzle, and things may start very icy as well, so watch out for that. through the day, brighter across southern and western areas, but it is the strength of the winds that you will notice, making it feel cold, cold than on the thermometer. temperatures below freezing, and feeling like they are in a number of slots. next week, a subtle change in

wind direction, with winds coming in from the bay of biscay, should bring in some less cold air across western and southern areas, very gradually through the day. cloud around, rain towards western areas, dry weather towards western areas, dry weather towards the north and east, but temperatures up to 9 degrees london and cardiff, ten for plymouth, still quite cold in scotland and north east england as well. for the weekend, saturday will see quite a lot of cloud, heavy showers falling snow over high ground in scotland, but by sunday, the weather should become a little bit calmer, any rain clearing away, left with sunny spells and will start a bit cooler. so temperatures will be a little bit into the weekend, but as the fog clears away through this afternoon. there is your weather. the headlines: theresa may says she will publish details of her brexit plan in a white paper to put before parliament. ican i can confirm our plan will be set
