presented to parliament. secretary david davis. the brexit secretary outlined the details of the white paper. it confirms the prime minister's vision of an independent, truly global uk and an ambitious future relationship with the eu. controlling our own laws and ensuring a smooth, orderly brexit was just part of a series of priorities for the government. these 12 objectives amount to one goal, a new, positive and constructive partnership between britain and the eu that works in our mutual interest. in front of ministers and diplomats last month, the prime minister spelt out her plan, a clue to the contents of her white paper. what i am proposing cannot mean membership of the single market. so, out of the special club that allows free movement of goods, services, capital and people, instead into a new trade deal aiming for access without barriers

or tariffs and crucially, getting control of migration. mps hope all of this detail means they can properly scrutinise the government's plans, especially as, after last night's vote, it seems we are past the point of no return. it was a historic moment. the ayes have it. but with dozens of labour mps voting against, the opposition is in disarray once again. several sacrificed their front bench jobs rather than obey jeremy corbyn‘s orders to vote for the bill. not diane abbott. the shadow home secretary, close ally of mr corbyn, and staunch remain campaigner, well enough to debate just three hours before the vote, then struck by illness that apparently kept her away from the commons. is brexit splitting labour? goodbye. what now for the party leaderfacing his fourth reshuffle in 18 months?

is the labour party facing another crisis, mr corbyn? even the party's most faithful admit brexit is more than a headache. it's an enormous issue in terms of its importance to the country and that will be reflected in all the debates in parliament. there are differences of view in our party, and clearly they were manifest yesterday, but there are deep divisions within the conservative party too. divisions aside, the prime minister has drawn up her plans. now she has to persuade a continent that what she wants is possible. eleanor garnier, bbc news, westminster. and we can speak to our assistant political editor, norman smith, who's at westminster. mps are mulling over the plan, 75 pages, most of it pretty familiar territory and arguments we have heard previously from mrs may. a couple of things caught my eye. one is, we will get an immigration bill probably before brexit. that will be

hugely controversial and will seek to implement the changes the government wants ahead of ending freedom of movement. the other interesting thing was that the government seems to be looking for some sort of special deals for key sectors to ensure that they retain the advantages of the single market. the sectors that are looking at are of course financial services, car manufacturers and chemical exports. meanwhile, trouble in the labour party, with diane abbott, not taking pa rt party, with diane abbott, not taking part in last night's vote because she was ill. but following your interview withjohn she was ill. but following your interview with john mann, she was ill. but following your interview withjohn mann, she is now under pressure because there is speculation that she threw a sickie because she didn't want to take part in the vote because so opposed to brexit. john mann, the labour mp, says she should now apologise to the party. she bottled the vote. it is cowardice. people who voted in different ways, one can argue whether they are right or wrong, but you don't abstain on the big votes.

and it is embarrassing to see that. she ought to give an apology to the labour party for doing so. that is not leadership, that is cowardice. she has called it very badly. another labour mp who abstained on the big vote, but who did turn up to ta ke the big vote, but who did turn up to take part was chris leslie. give me your take on diane abbott's conduct? i haven't seen diane. i thought the front bench line was to insist that all frontbenchers vote in favour of triggering article 50. i am afraid i couldn't go along with that, so i wasn't going to support that because it feels to me like theresa may's ha rd it feels to me like theresa may's hard brexit plan and it is not something i could endorse. i don't know any more than you do about diane. if you are watching, diane, get well soon. i am sure we share those sentiments. in terms of the labour party, though, didn't last i

exposed how divided the party is from top to bottom over brexit? well, it is one of those issues that transcends political parties. this is about our constituents' future and the country as a whole. and yes, if you are a national political party, of course those tensions are always going to be there. but now we move onto the important bit of the bill. it is notjust a binary decision, this parliament's opportunity to give a steer to the prime minister on the negotiations. that is what the supreme court gave us that is what the supreme court gave us the power to do. so the amendment were, on monday, tuesday and wednesday next week. we saw that the government are still fudging the question over whether mps will get a meaningful final say before the dean—lite deal is all signed. that is where the government will have to give in. but mrs may seems to have been clear that she will only give mpsa been clear that she will only give mps a say after she has agreed a deal. but can you imagine a

circumstance, as keir starmer was saying earlier today, where mps in westminster have to turn on the tv and watch the deal being done in the european parliament without having signed it off themselves? i don't think it is tenable, and i don't think it is tenable, and i don't think you can treat parliament as an afterthought. it is notjust labour mps or snp and lib dems, conservative mps are going to be saying next week, prime minister, you have to make this meaningful. let us approve or disapprove of the d raft let us approve or disapprove of the draft terms of this new relationship, notjust have it as a fait accompli. but doesn't that effectively give parliament a veto over brexit, because if you don't like the deal, you will tell her to try harder and it will enable mps, in effect, if they wish, to thwart brexit? except that we have a parliamentary democracy. that much has been established, and we have a say in these negotiations. that is how we get the laws in this country. we don't delegate everything to the prime minister. so it might be

difficult for her, but that is the way the negotiation should be conducted. and if we don't like that deal and this is bad for the country, we shouldn't be afraid to send her back to the negotiation because we don't want to upset her. thank you. there is obviously a lot of focus on the politics here, but you sent a loss of the difficult negotiations now and the difficult politics are going to be in brussels, where mrs may will have to front up to some very tough talking. certainly listening to britain's former ambassador to the eu yesterday, sir ivan rogers, he was suggesting that other eu leaders are prepared to push for a very hard deal, suggesting they might even demand up to £60 billion as a sort of exit bill for leaving the eu. norman, thank you. joining me now is lord newby, leader of the liberal democrats in the house of lords. he is in westminster. norman was talking about the difficulties ahead in

brussels. other difficulties ahead for this bill in the lords? well, the house of lords will want to do what it always done—lite does with a bill, which scrutinise it. if there are things he thinks should be improved, it will send it back to the commons and ask them to think again. for example, we are the liberal democrats will be trying to persuade our colleagues across the parties in the house of lords that the final stay on any deal should be with the people, not with theresa may. we will see if we succeed, but there will be other amendments on membership of the single market, on the rights of eu citizens in the uk, which will be discussed in the house of lords and voted on. the mantra in the commons has been, we have got to trust the people. at some point, don't you people have to hand some trust back to the leaders to lead? well, the people have asked the government to negotiate terms for leaving the eu. and this bill will go through by the end of march and

the government. the negotiations, on the government. the negotiations, on the basis of which we will have more information. but at the end of the process , information. but at the end of the process, the people, having kicked this process off, it seems logical to us that the people should have the final say. what would it take for you to veto brexit? we are not going to veto brexit. the only people who could take a view are the electorate as a whole. it is interesting about the role of the house of commons. before the referendum last year, the house of commons voted overwhelmingly in favour of remaining in the eu. the people were then asked, and they took a different view. it is possible that you could find yourself in that situation at the end of the process. i think people across the country would feel short—changed if they were denied a vote at a point when they thought the house of commons might not be taking a view which they agreed

with. we are both trying to second—guess the people, but wouldn't a lot of people simply be saying, just get on with it? wouldn't a lot of people simply be saying, just get on with mm wouldn't a lot of people simply be saying, just get on with it? it is not as straightforward as that, because you are dealing with a whole raft of issues. you were just talking about there being a bill on immigration. that raises a series of questions not just about the immigration. that raises a series of questions notjust about the role the british government will play in restricting access to the eu, but how the eu will then respond in stopping young people having the same kind of access to jobs and education across europe and travel that they have at the moment. these are big issues that people across the country will want to have a voice on. so no brexit without another referendum? quite. lord newby, thank you very much. the bbc understands that a deal to end the bitter aslef dispute over driver—only trains on southern railway will be announced this afternoon.

the two sides have been holding lengthy talks to try to resolve the dispute, which has seen passengers suffering months of disruption due to strikes and staff shortages. a southern rail and tuc news conference is scheduled for around 3.30, and we'll bring you that live. a little earlier, i spoke to our transport correspondent richard westcott. it looks like they have done a deal to end the strike which the aslef union, the drivers, have been carrying out. we haven't got the details yet, but we have been told there is something coming along at 3.30, a press conference. you don't do that unless you have made a deal. this is obviously the longest running industrial dispute since privatisation. the drivers joined running industrial dispute since privatisation. the driversjoined it recently. before that, it was the conductors, and it is about the role of this second person on the train, the conductor. do they have to be safety trained? do you always have to have two people on a train? this dispute has been nasty and it looks like a breakthrough. it has been very bloody, and aslef has got

involved. where was the room for compromise? we don't know. this is the critical question. when people we re the critical question. when people were asking me if there was an end in sight, it was hard to say because either there are two people on a certain train, trained up to a certain train, trained up to a certain level, or there aren't. it is not like a pay dispute where you can meet in the middle. it was hard to see where the middle ground was. and things got nasty between the two sides. talking to aslef people, drivers, and talking to senior managers, it seems to be disintegrating. but the tuc has got involved, a bit of a coup for them, and it looks like they have come up with a deal. but it doesn't look like things are going back to normal? know, and normalfrankly doesn't look good for severn—lite southern customers anywhere. there isa southern customers anywhere. there is a driver shortage as well. but the strike that brought the whole thing to a standstill, the driver strikes, this will potentially end those. the conductors for the rmt

union, a different union, as far as we know, that is still going on. but when they go on strike, only 30% of services are cut. but the really debilitating strikes by drivers, it looks like they are over. there are bigger implications, because it looks like this will crop up all over the country when they bring in new trains. they want to do this on most of the new franchises. so there is the threat of strikes across britain. we will see what the deal is and we will see if it sticks. the inquests into the deaths of 30 british tourists who were killed in a terror attack at a beach resort in tunisia in 2015 have been hearing about the death of a 2k year—old woman who was on holiday. carly lovett ran into the hotel with her partner when the firing began. our reporter can tell us what happened in court today. yes, this is the final day of the evidence

being provided by the families of those killed. as you can imagine, this has been an emotional period at this has been an emotional period at this inquest. this morning, there has been yet more heart—rending evidence about carly lovat, who was on holiday with herfiance in tunisia. carly lovett, who was 2a years old, had recently got engaged to her long—term boyfriend, liam moore. the trip to tunisia was their first holiday alone. but just a few weeks later, liam and her family, relatives and friends were mourning her death at her funeral in lincolnshire. she and liam had been caught up in the attack at an upmarket hotel in tunisia two years ago. the gunman, seifeddine rezgui, specifically targeting british holiday—makers in the name of so—called islamic state. he was armed with an assault rifle and explosives. today, the inquest heard how carly and liam had hidden on the first floor of the hotel after realising

the resort was under attack. but the gunman, after killing many people outside, then moved into the main building, shooting dead more holiday—makers and eventually reaching carly and liam. she was shot in the chest and hit by shrapnel, probably from a grenade. in his evidence, liam moore said he saw carly lying on the floor in a pool of blood. he could tell she was fading. she said to him, "i love you," and he told her, "i love you." he then decided to try and save her life by doing mouth—to—mouth resuscitation. but then he said when he felt her body relax, he knew it hadn't worked. carly‘s parents described her as a perfect child. she was a photographer, designer, and had a successfulfashion blog. her mother said, "i cannot find the words to express how much she is missed."

later this morning, we heard from cheryl storey, whose husband john was killed in the attack. like the others, she gave a moving tribute to her husband. but the edge moved on to beat very critical of the security situation at the hotel. we have already heard a lot about that, but here was someone else stating that she believed that effectively, there was no security at the hotel. she also described how there was chaos in the wake of the attack. she said there were injured people lying around and nobody doing anything. nobody seemed to know what to do. she said they had been at the hotel for a few days and before the attack took place, she had never seen any security whatsoever. the only person she had seen was one man at the

front gates, and he wasn't even wearing a proper uniform. and she said he was not really bothering to check anybody or anything. so painting a very poor picture of the security situation at the hotel. she is going to be giving more evidence next week, when we move into a new phase in this inquest, which will be focusing on security and the role of the holiday company tui through which all the british people who we re which all the british people who were killed booked their holidays and whether they did enough to inform the holiday—makers as they we re inform the holiday—makers as they were making their bookings about the situation in tunisia and in particular the terrorist threat. richard galpin, thank you. the headlines on bbc news: the bbc understands that a deal to end the aslef dispute over driver—only trains on southern railway will be announced this afternoon. the government formally sets out its strategy for leaving the european union as it publishes its white paper. the bank of england forecasts better growth for the uk economy over the next three years —

but warns higher inflation could hit households. in sports, england head coach eddie jones names elliot daly on the wing for the opening six nations match with france on saturday. wales interim coach rob howley has named sam warton in his starting 15 for their match with italy in rome on sunday. it is one of five changes to the side that lead south africa in the side that lead south africa in the autumn international in november. and after 21 years, frank lampard november. and after 21 years, frank lampa rd has announced november. and after 21 years, frank lampard has announced his retirement from football. he remains chelsea's all—time leading goal—scorer and won the champions league once during his 13 year spell with the club. more sport at one point—lite 3.30. it is understood that president

trump and australian primer to malcolm turnbull have had a stormy telephone conversation about resettli ng telephone conversation about resettling refugees. it was about a deal signed by president obama to send illegal image is from australia to america for resettlement. america's combative new president appears to have picked yet another fight. the fallout from last week's executive order on refugees now casting a shadow over one of washington's closest relationships. last year, the obama administration agreed to take in up to 1250 asylum seekers from australia's controversial offshore processing camps in the pacific but many are from countries whose citizens are now temporarily barred from entering the united states. on saturday, when the australian prime minister sought assurances the deal was still on track, the conversation was, according to the washington post, cut short.

i've seen that report and i'm not going to comment on the conversation other than to say that, in the course of the conversation, as you know, and as was confirmed by the president's official spokesman in the white house, the president assured me that he would continue with and honour the agreement we entered into with the obama administration. but late last night, a typically incendiary tweet from the president. do you believe it?, he said. the obama administration agreed to take thousands of illegal immigrants from australia. why? i will study this dumb deal. the fate of the deal remains unclear, but it seems america's friends and foes are all having to get used to the new president's unique style of diplomacy. it's up to his senior officials to pursue rather more conventional approaches. his defence secretary, james mattis, is in south korea. his boss has frequently accused america's asian allies of taking washington's support for granted. but this trip and an agreement to deploy an american missile defence system suggests that, in some quarters at least, it is business as usual. not so with iran. at the weekend, tehran tested a medium—range ballistic missile.

now mr trump says iran is formally on notice. should have been thankful, he tweeted this morning, for the terrible deal the us made with them. it isn't clear what he wants to do about the agreement but the businessman turned president is looking at america's deals with the world, and he isn't happy with what he sees. paul adams, bbc news. this afternoon, president trump has been defending his ban on seven mainly muslim countries from entering the states. he also said it is time for more tough policies. the world is in trouble, but we are going to straighten it out, ok? that's what i do, i fix things. we are going to straighten it out. believe me, when you hear about the tough phone calls and having, don't worry about it. just don't worry about it. we have to be tough. it's time we have to be a little tough, folks. we are taking advantage of by

every nation in the world, virtually. it's not going to happen any more. it's not going to happen any more. it's not going to happen any more. it's not going to happen any more. we have seen unimaginable violence carried out in the name of religion, act of wanton slaughter against religious minorities, horrors on a scale that defy description. terrorism is a fundamental threat to religious freedom. it must be stopped, and it will be stopped. it may not be pretty for a little while. it will be stopped. a human rights lawyer who took up the cases of thousands of iraqis who alleged they'd been abused by british soldiers during the iraq conflict, has been struck off. phil shiner was found to have acted dishonestly in bringing murder and torture claims against the soldiers. caroline hawley has the story. phil shiner was once regarded as one of this country's best human rights lawyers. but his firm has had to close, his reputation is in shreds, and he'll now never work as a lawyer again.

it was from the aftermath of the iraq war that phil shiner rose to public prominence, suing the british army over allegations of abuse defined his career and became a personal crusade. in all, he's brought more than 2,000 claims. i don't know whether people were killed, but i think something went wrong. we need to find out who was responsible and who in command knew what on earth was going on here. they were kept naked, they were sexually humiliated. this is baha mousa, an iraqi hotel worker battered to death in british custody. this footage shows just the start of his ordeal. it was phil shiner who brought the case to the british courts and to a public inquiry. but it was another public inquiry that was to prove his undoing. the al—sweady inquiry examined what happened after a ferocious battle in southern iraq in 200a. these are the bodies of insurgents killed on the battlefield,

but a number of iraqis represented by phil shiner with legal aid had claimed they'd been murdered and mutilated in british custody. those claims were found to be based on lies and speculation, and phil shiner‘s work was suddenly under scrutiny. in december, he confessed to paying an agent to find clients. he admitted to acting without integrity. he did not admit to trying to cover his tracks. the false allegations had put immense stress on the soldiers involved. really, their marriages have been affected, their lives have been affected, the anguish this has caused them is quite shocking, and also, they are reliving situations in wartime which they would rather forget. many of them have left the service 15, 20 years ago. he's now been exposed for so many false allegations. he's made soldiers' lives a misery over the last few years. i think the decent thing now would be for him to apologise properly to all those troops and their families.

for mr shiner‘s firm, too, it was a lucrative business, the tribunal was told. it heard that he'd ignored the rules of his profession, believing that his work was so important that the ends justified the means. caroline hawley, bbc news. army coloneljames coote, who was a major stationed in basra in 2004, said the false claims made against british troops at the battle of danny boy had been "extremely stressful and demoralising". he's been speaking to our defence correspondent, jonathan beale. iam i am reassured to see that regulatory authority has applied the standards and values to their profession. and personally? personally, the important thing now is to ensure that they continue to do so as we look at other cases in the future. but a huge cloud has

lifted, hasn't it? yes, but we can't turn the clock back. nothing can undo the decade or so that my soldiers, theirfamilies undo the decade or so that my soldiers, their families and undo the decade or so that my soldiers, theirfamilies and my family have been through as a result of this. left scars? inevitably. personally speaking, it has been difficult. but i feel now that a chapter is certainly behind us. clearly, there is still one chapter open, which i will not comment on now. but yes, it has been a harrowing experience. and you're relieved now? i am not sure what my emotions are the moment. i am certainly very reassured that they have. with this in the appropriate manner. that was army coloneljames kuyt, talking tojonathan beale. quite a bit of weather around today.

the wettest and windiest of it is towards the west, although i thought that avonmouth looked rather moody and magnificent, a study in grey. it is pretty much leaden skies across the british isles. pockets of brightness, but we have these bands of whether spiralling around a big area of low pressure. 60 mile an hour gusts of wind in exposed places. that wind will ease off a touch for some places overnight. it will not be particularly cold, but there will be some gaps in the cloud and it will start off bright enough for friday. some wet and windy weather across the north and west of scotland. mainly dry elsewhere. we are going to bring a big area of low pressure into the western end of the channel. it will be a slightly fresher feeling day, despite the presence of that sunshine. watch for the strong winds during rush hour. there may be speed restrictions on bridges. ferries could be disrupted as well.

iam going ferries could be disrupted as well. i am going to leave you tantalisingly at the start of the weekend, because helen willetts will be here in half an hour. a hello. this is bbc news. the headlines at 3.30pm. an "independent and truly global united kingdom" — the brexit secretary, david davis, outlines the uk's strategy for leaving the eu. whatever the outcome of our negotiations, we seek a more open, outward looking and confident uk that works for everyone. a deal to end part of the dispute which has caused misery for passengers on southern rail appears to have been reached. an announcement between the company and the driver's union, aslef, is expected shortly. an inquest hears how the fiance of carly lovett, the 24—year old woman shot dead during the tunisian terror attack — tried to save her life. president donald trump says america is going to do things differently from now on as he ruffles more feathers internationally. he says that its generosity is being

exploited and it will not be taken advantage of any more. when you hear about the tough phone calls i am having, don't worry about it. it is time to be tough. we are taking advantage of by every country in the world, virtually. it's not going to happen any more. and the human rights lawyer, phil shiner, who brought abuse claims against uk troops, has been struck off, after he was found to have acted dishonestly. just to let you know, we are keeping an eye on the tuc because we are expecting some kind of announcement on those talks from aslef... in fa ct, on those talks from aslef... in fact, there seems to be some movement there right now. sorry, false alarm. we will go to sport... sorry, let's go to the tuc. thanks everybody for coming and

thanks for your patience in waiting. i'm frances o'grady, the general secretary of the tuc and on behalf of andy mellors and myself, i have a short statement to read. following two weeks of intensive talks held to resolve the dispute, we are pleased to announce that aslef and southern railway have reached an agreement. for the avoidance of any doubt, this means that subject to a referendum of aslef members in southern, the dispute between aslef and southern is over. and disbarred —— on behalf of myself and andy meadows of a belly over, i would like to thank the negotiating teams from both parties in this dispute. they have worked long and hard to achieve this breakthrough. in particular, we want to place on record our appreciation for the constructive leadership

shown throughout these talks. we recognise that this long—running dispute has been extraordinarily difficult for everyone, including four passengers and those staff involved. we are glad that the parties have negotiated an agreement but not —— that not only provides a sound basis on which to resolve their dispute but also to restore good industrial relations for the future. thank you very much indeed. a short statement there then by the general secretary of the tuc confirming that aslef and southern railway have reached an agreement. she acknowledged it had been an extraordinarily difficult time. and particularly for passengers. it is subject to a referendum of aslef members but clearly there was some confidence from frances o'grady at the end to that particular

decision already taken by the people of the uk in last year's referendum. but we always said that we would detail our strategic aims of negotiation and seek to build a national consensus where possible. this white paper sets out those aims and the thinking behind them. it confirms the prime minister's vision for a truly independent but global uk. this is based on 12 principles that will guide the government in fulfilling the democratic will for the people of the uk. these are, providing certainty and clarity where we can as we approach negotiations, taking control of our own laws and statute book, strengthening the union by securing a deal that works for the whole of the uk, maintaining a common travel area and maintaining our strong links with ireland, controlling immigration from the european union, securing rights for european union citizens already living in the uk and the rights of uk nationals living in the european union.

protecting and enhancing workers' rights and ensuring free trade with european markets whilst forging a new strategic partnership with european union including a bold and ambitious free trade agreement and a mutually beneficial new customs agreement. forging free trade agreements with other countries around the world, ensuring the united kingdom remains the best place for science and innovation. cooperating in the fight against crime and terrorism and finally, delivering a smooth exit from the european union. these 12 objectives amount to one goal, a new, constructive partnership between britain and the european union that works in our mutual interest. all of them are key but let me highlight some of the specific issues in the white paper. it reiterates our firm view that it's in the uk's interests

for the european union to succeed economically and politically. that cannot be said enough. we want the european union to succeed politically and economically. and so we approach negotiations in a spirit of goodwill and working to an outcome in our mutual benefit. the united kingdom will leave the single market. instead, we seek a new strategic partnership including a bold and ambitious free trade agreement and a mutually beneficial new customs agreement that should ensure the most free trade of goods as possible. that will be to our mutual benefit. as the white paper notes, we export £230 billion worth of goods and services to the eu whilst importing £290 from the eu every year. it also sets out how after we leave the eu, the uk will look to significantly

ncrease its trade with the fastest—growing export markets in the world. whilst we cannot buy new trade agreements yet, we are preparing the ground for them. that was david davis in the house of commons earlier. the archbishop of canterbury, justin welby, says he wasn't aware of allegations of physical abuse made against a former colleague. it's alleged that in the 1970s and early 80s a barristerjohn smyth physically abused young boys at a christian summer camp where the archbishop was also working. the church of england has admitted it "failed terribly", by not reporting the allegations to the police sooner. here's our home affairs correspondent, tom symonds. the accusation is thatjohn smythe, a barrister and leader of the christian camps, groomed boys and beat them severely, giving the explanation it would purge them of their sins. some were schoolboys at winchester college, they describe being so severely injured it was difficult to sit down. the college says it knew nothing about what was going on. another young future church leader also worked at the camps.

he knewjohn smyth. but the archbishop of canterbury justin welby insisted today he knew nothing about the beatings. i was 19, 20 years old, i was a junior leader in a camp, these were the senior leaders, i was not part of the inner circle. it is alleged the abuse started in 1978 when public school boys and students were invited to the summer camps. in 1982, it is claimed john smyth was advised to move abroad. the beatings had come to light. one victim had tried to kill himself. the archbishop was made aware in 2013 and the church has now made a full apology. there are so many places where our society thought it was ok to cover—up the most terrible treatment of children and vulnerable adults. and i do not know how many more cases there will be, but on each one, nothing will be covered up. have you ever seen any evidence

in your religious life of beating going on? no, never. last year, an anglican bishop became the first to be jailed for child sexual abuse. again, the church had to apologise. there is a pattern here, the allegation of children harmed by respected church figures of the claims of a cover—up, the belated attempts by lambeth palace to work out what has gone wrong. it is a pattern being investigated by the public inquiry into child abuse. this case may provide more evidence. the number of students from the european union applying to study at universities in the uk has fallen by seven

per—cent, according to the admissions service ucas. there's also been a drop in applications from uk students, with nursing being hit particularly badly. our education correspondent, gillian hargreaves has more. these figures give us the first indication of how many undergraduates will enter university in the autumn. a 7% drop in applications from eu students might be explained by uncertainty following the decision to leave the eu. the number of uk students applying has also fallen by 5%. one of the biggest falls in applications has been for nursing courses in england. until this year, trainee nurses were eligible for an nhs grant to cover fees and living costs but now, like other undergraduates, they will have to take out a loan. the number of nursing applicants in england has fallen by 23% since 2016, according to ucas figures. there were over 43,000 applicants in 2016 compared to over 33,000 this year and that means 9,990 fewer people will study nursing compared to last year. the chief executive of ucas, mary curnock cook, said the overall fall could lead to unprecedented choice for applicants later in the year. gillian hargreaves, bbc news. in a moment a summary

of the business news this hour but first, the headlines on bbc news: a deal to end the dispute on southern rail has been reached. it was announced a short time ago at the tuc. the government sets out its strategy for leaving the european union as it publishes its white paper. the bank of england forecasts better growth for the economy over the next two years but warns high inflation could hit households. as you've just been hearing, the bank of england governor mark carney has upgraded economic growth forecasts for 2017 to 2%. it is also keeping interest rates steady at 0.25%.

a us court has ordered facebook and other defendants to pay £395 million after finding they unlawfully used a firm's virtual reality technology. it reported that it was well on its way to 2 billion users last night. its profits were up by 177%. and quarterly profits at royal dutch shell have reported an 8% fall in full—year profits, to £2.7bn. the company blames the low oil price and the cost of restructuring the business. the bank of england has made another dramatic rise in its growth forecast for this year. it expects the economy to grow 2% in 2017, up from a november forecast of 1.4%, which was itself an upgrade from the 0.8% forecast made in august. growth has remained resilient since

the referendum, with the united kingdom posting the fastest growth in the g—7 last year. we expect the economy to expand by 2% in 2017. 1.75% thereafter. or around 1.7 5% thereafter. this will leave the level of uk output around 1% higher over the next two years than we had expected in november. joining me now is lucy o'carroll, aberdeen asset management's chief economist.ucy, why did they get it so wrong? they thought in the face of uncertainty, consumers would rein in their spending and start saving and actually they were unabated in their

spending. they kept on spending and that's probably the main cause. what about inflation? it's been creeping up. howfardo about inflation? it's been creeping up. how far do you think it will go? it looks like inflation could hit the bank's 2% target as early as february and then rise quite considerably above 2% for the rest of this year. it's hard to judge because a lot of it depends on currency issues and whether firms decide to absorb price rises or pass them onto consumers. at the moment, it looks like we will noticeably inflation pick—up. it looks like we will noticeably inflation pick-up. high inflation tends to lead in some economies to higher interest rates. it's the golden question. when do you think they will increase, any time soon? the bank of england raised its growth forecast today but it also changed another significant part of its outlook, and the supply side of

the economy. they said there is more slack in the economy than they previously thought. those two things balance each other out. so the bank is probably still looking at an interest rate rise but it doesn't need to address that question immediately, so long as it the demand side of the economy and its supply side of the economy come right. if it gets anything wrong on its expectations for the supply—side, mainly to do with the labour market, it will have to rethink. we will have to wait and think. -- rethink. we will have to wait and think. —— wait and see. thank you, lucy. here's a look at some other stories we're following today. six airports — belfast, liverpool, newquay, humberside, prestwick and durham tees valley — could be added to heathrow‘s network by 2030. that's the current suggestion from the department of transport if heathrow‘s third runway is approved. as it stands, eight uk airports have links with heathrow but ministers want to expand domestic connections. sales at astrazeneca fell 13% in the fourth quarter after the drug—maker's cholesterol treatment crestor lost patent protection in the us. the company has been cutting costs so it can devote

more resources to cancer drugs. and staying with pharma — consumer goods giant reckitt benckiser — maker of brands like nurofen and durex — has confirmed it is in "advanced negotiations" to acquire baby formula maker mead johnson nutrition for about £13 bn. markets — shares in reckitt benkiser rose after it announced that bid for mead johnson. they rose about 4.6%. also shares in royal dutch shell were up by about 1.5% after the oil giant reported its latest results. that's all the business news. stumbling over words is catching. thank you for making me look better. starting primary school is a big moment, for children as well as for parents. but for a group of mums in cornwall what's made it more of a challenge is that their children have down's

syndrome. so they've written a book to help parents, children, and schools to adapt to school life, and it's been so successful it's spreading the message around the uk, and beyond. john maguire has the story. shall we finish? we need to do some more. it's noah's first year at his primary school in cornwall. the children paint and play games as you might expect, but they're also learning makaton, a type of sign language. it's to help them communicate with noah, who has down's syndrome. it's amazing how the children sort of, they almost have this understanding that he is slightly different to them, but they don't treat him differently. if anything, they're very understanding, they want to help noah and they all want to be friends with him. he's very popular in our class. in common with 6500 children in cornwall who've just started school, noah and his classmates received a book as part of a starter pack. he's one of the children featured, and his mum is one of those who devised the idea. this group all have children with down's syndrome. around 750 are born each year

in the uk, and this book is given to those parents. their second book is designed for all children starting primary. the book, paid for by fundraising, is now spreading across the uk and around the world. what gives us goose pimples to know is that this little book that contains those little faces is going out to the little hands that it was made for, and that's fantastic. because what we hope is that when that little pack goes home, the treasure pack goes home with that child, and they open the book with their grown—up and they say something like, "why has that child got hearing aids? why does that child sit in that chair?" the grown—up might answer them and say, "oh, he's got hearing aids because he needs those so he can hear," and that's what it's about, that opportunity for a small child to ask the question, to receive the answer, and then move onto the next thing, because that's what children do. this is one that angie's made for all children going to school. angie and ted are meeting up with the actor and writer sally phillips and her son olly. last year, sally made a documentary

looking at a new prenatal test that some believe could eradicate the condition. she's endorsing the book and believes it makes a difference. yes, because we're afraid of things we don't know and things we don't recognise, different things, we all are. and so i think making little kids with down's syndrome familiar and unthreatening to other children is a great thing. back home, and ted's main aim is to beat his sisters at snap. but for his mum and the other volunteers, their ambition is to help every child, whether with down's or not, to take those first crucial steps into their brave new world. john maguire, bbc news, cornwall. let's ta ke let's take a look at the weather now and during helen with the forecast. good afternoon. what a vast difference this week has been to last week. i think we might get some

of that cold and dry weather back though towards the end of next week if that's what you prefer. the atla ntic if that's what you prefer. the atlantic is very busy, busy with cloud and weather fronts. this is the low pressure forcing rain across the low pressure forcing rain across the uk. this could potentially develop into a low pressure tomorrow, affecting a lot of the uk. this is a major area of low pressure. we have got some pretty lively wins. these are the sorts of photographs we are being sent in by our weather watchers. for western areas, that's where the strongest winds are. it's a windy day across the board, windier than yesterday, but this is where we are seeing the gales and stormy weather. further east, it is not so dramatic. the winds though are stronger. a little bit of clear skies overnight, but the breeze means it won't be so cold. it will be six or seven, said

for most of us, a mild and fairly quiet night bar the winds. it is still quite damp in the north to start with but not a bad start to our friday. setting us up for a fall in the south, because it will turn very wet as the day progresses across wales, parts of southern england, the midlands and possibly northern ireland. eight or nine, not as high the temperatures as they have been today. just the hint that they could be something wintry within this mix. of course, the potential for some disruptive winds. certainly for the channel islands and northern france. we could see gusts in the extremities of 70 mph. it will be given to today across southern and eastern areas where we see the lively wins tomorrow which could cause us problems. that train rushes in and saturday with the re m na nts of rushes in and saturday with the remnants of the low pressure affecting scotland on saturday. for many areas, some decent spells of

whether as well. that area of low pressure starts to move out of the way. this next one starts to drift by scotland, could be quite wet here, with showery rain across southern areas here, with showery rain across southern areas on here, with showery rain across southern areas on sunday as well. but for many central areas across the uk, it looks like not a bad day again on sunday. so plenty going on with the weather and into next week and plenty more on that on our website including any warnings. this is bbc news. the headlines at four: "an independent and truly global united kingdom" — the brexit secretary, david davis, outlines the uk's strategy for leaving the eu. whatever the outcome of our negotiations, we seek a more open, outward looking, confident and fairer uk that works for everyone. a deal to end part of the dispute which has caused misery for passengers on southern rail is reached. the bank of england forecasts increased growth for the uk economy over the next three years — but warns that higher inflation could hit households. and in the next hour,

the inquests hear about the final moments of one of the 30 british tourists killed in a terror attack in tunisia. carly lovett‘s fiance described how they ran into the hotel when the firing began. they were on their first holiday together. a controversial human rights
