hello, this is breakfast, with charlie stayt and steph mcgovern. the latest weapon in the war against hackers — the government funds lessons in cyber security for teenagers. it's hoped they'll become the experts of the future and protect britain from online attacks. good morning it's saturday, 11th february. president trump says he may issue a new order authorising a travel ban after his old one was blocked by the courts. parks under threat — a new report says funding has

reached a tipping point and new ways of paying for them need to be found. the latest on the battle to save hundreds of whales stranded on a new zealand beach. and in sport — it's one of the biggest tests yet, for england's winning run. it's a first trip to cardiff, for their coach eddiejones, and wales are banking on home advantage to take them top of the six nations. and matt has the weather. good morning, a cold feeling day out there for all of us today. for some a little bit of snow to begin with, giving a coating in places but for many some of that snow will turn back to rain, all the details coming up in15 minutes. see you then. good morning. first, our main story. the government is to fund lessons in cyber security to encourage teenagers to pursue a career in defending britain from online attacks. it's hoped that thousands of pupils in england will spend up to four hours a week on the subject, over the next five years. here's our home affairs correspondent tom symonds. daniel kelly's a convicted teenage hacker, facing a jail sentence.

in 2015, he took part in the massive digital break—in at the phone company talk talk. but what if his potential had been harnessed at an earlier age? he might have ended upjoining a new breed of apprentices learning the cyber security trade like these at bt‘s headquarters. with that in mind, the government is putting up £20 million, for nearly 6000 schoolchildren aged 1a and above to take four hours of cyber security lessons after school each week. we think that will help seriously with this shortage of cyber skills that we've got. now, of course, will always keep it under review, in case this needs to get bigger, but getting it going on that scale, i think shows serious ambition to make sure that we can have the pipeline of talent that we will need in the years ahead. while the police are stepping up the fight, this is not a threat which can be defeated on the ground by raiding the hackers. the cyber crime battlefield will be online and britain's gchq will be its command centre. 58,000 people are now employed in

the growing anti—hacking industry. but more will be needed and the government knows it has to start finding them when they are young. donald trump has said he may rewrite the presidential order imposing restrictions on travel to the us to overcome the legal obstacles that have frustrated his efforts so far. his first order — stopping travel from seven mainly—muslim countries — has been blocked by the courts. 0ur washington correspondent, david willis, has more. after a federal appeals court backed a stay of his executive order, donald trump vowed he would see his opponents in court. speaking on air force one, en route to his weekend retreat in florida, the president revealed he was actively weighing other alternatives.

we'll win that battle. but we also have a lot of other options, includingjust filing a brand—new order on monday. i like to surprise you. we need speed, for reasons of security, so it could very well be that we do. unveiled at the end of a frantic first week in office, the original order suspended america's refugee programme and banned travellers from seven majority muslim nations from entering the united states. it caused chaos at airports and sparked protests across the country. quite how the white house might rewrite the order isn't clear, although lawyers would almost certainly have to address the claim that in its existing form, the order is unconstitutional, in that it blocks entry to the united states on the grounds of religion. mr trump has continued to insist that tough immigration measures are crucial to america's national security. david willis, bbc news, washington. the funding of parks has reached a tipping point and new ways of paying for them may have to be found.

that's according to the commons communities and local government committee which says parks are suffering because of cuts in council funding . it warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect of the 1980s. because of cuts in council funding. it warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect of the 1980s. instead of kind of regarding parks as a kind of only a leisure and recreation area of service, we should be thinking about parks as big contributors to public health, and to environmental policy and to community cohesion, and maybe they can be reprioritised. but there is fundamentally a problem about the level of cuts that local authorities have been experiencing, the distribution of the cuts across the country and the very, very difficult decisions that many local authorities are having to make. labour has issued formal warnings to members of its front—bench team who disobeyed jeremy corbyn‘s order to vote for brexit. but they're not being sacked. among those who ignored mr corbyn were eleven shadowjunior ministers and three of the labour whips. a 16—year—old boy has died after he was stabbed

in a busy street in leeds. the wounded teenager was taken from the harehills area to hospital for treatment, but died a short time later. a 15—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder. the decision to end a scheme to let unaccompanied refugee children into the uk is shameful according to the scottish first minister nicola sturgeon. she's urged the prime minister to change her mind saying there is a moral duty to help those in need. the scheme‘s due to end in march with 350 children being admitted far fewer than some campaigners had hoped for. volunteers have told breakfast in the past few hours than 200 more whales have become stranded on a beach in new zealand. hundreds more have already died in one of the biggest ever mass strandings in the country's history. it's hoped the pilot whales may be able to swim to safety during the next high tide. just to warn you, you might find some of the scenes in this report by simon clemison distressing. as they wait for high tide,

volunteers do whatever they can to cool them. pouring water and covering the creatures in cloths helps to regulate body temperature. temporary measures until the whales can be released into the ocean. some hope singing will prove soothing. and then the sound of success. but it is early days. very quickly, this tide has come racing in, and now we're all are up to our knees. some people are up to their waists in water, and we are starting to get a bit of floating, and we're helping assist the whales with their breathing until the water gets deep enough they can swim. it's a devastating image, one of the worst whale strandings in the country's history. it's unclear what brings them en masse onto the beech. some believe they may be sick or injured, or have simply lost their way. another theory is tht when a single whale is beached it sends out a distress signal, attracting other members of the pod. 0nce ashore, it is hard to get them

back in to the ocean. we worked hard and got those 100 whales off that had survived overnight and we have lost sight of them, but the bad part of the story is a separate pod of 240 whales have come on and restranded south of that. so we have been fighting to keep those ones happy, hundreds of people from across the world have been competing this

week in a sport that combines dancing and flying — indoors. this is the wind games. you can compete in pairs, fours or as a solo contestant. you get marks for speed and accuracy. matt will give us the weekend weather later. matt will give us the weekend weather later. the iraq historic allegations team, which has been investigating claims of abuse by british forces against iraqi civilians, will be shut down after mps called the operation an "unmitigated failure". a report yesterday blamed the ministry of defence for empowering law firms to bring cases on "an industrial scale", many of which held little credibility. earlier mark lancaster told us the government did the right thing in scrapping the unit. ihat was set up for the right reasons so that our service

personnel wouldn't have to go to the international criminal court, but u nfortu nately international criminal court, but unfortunately in the process, it was abused and that is why the government took the action it did. we also spoke to brian wood who was falsely accused of war crimes in iraq. i was falsely accused of war crimes in iraq. iwas a falsely accused of war crimes in iraq. i was a young commander at 23 yea rs iraq. i was a young commander at 23 years old, thinking that what i did on the ground was the right thing to do, and the right decisions that i had made. it wasn't perfect but the quys had made. it wasn't perfect but the guys on the ground with me and i, we survived. to get home and to then find out about these allegations, it was heartbreaking. joining us now from our london newsroom is john cooper, a human rights lawyer who has defended armed forces families against the mod. thank you for your time, it is interesting hearing brian wood, one of those accused. what are your thoughts when you hear him talking about the ordeal that he and his colleagues, those who fought, went

through. as one who has represented members of the armed forces and bereaved members of the armed force, have nothing but sympathy for his experience, it is a very important principle in our democratic country that the same law that applies to civilians must apply to all people. that takes into account an must take into account the stresses of war but that doesn't mean that people don't have the same basic responsibilities. so, as it stands now, do you then have a concern, because of this sequence of events, and phil shiner in particular, the attention to what he was doing, how he was going about his business, are you concerned now, that legitimate cases won't get the attention they need? let me make this clear, i am not here as an apologist for phil shiner. the conduct he committed is rightly being kit sighed. neither am i here as an apologist for the ihat debacle which i will agree it was, but the point you made is right at

the top of this issue, there is still accountability, there must be proper investigation, and the concern is that there won't be. i hope that when allegation are brought against any individual, particularly in this field, they are com pletely particularly in this field, they are completely exonerated. but confidence and the perception of justice for all, civilian in this country and the law applying to the same to military personnel means there should be proper investigation, my concern goes this way, that now we are going to have the military invest spating the military, —— investigating. this has been outlawed as crimes in this country are concerns or allegations, but if there are allegation when people have lost their lives in military premises the civilian police have precedence, to ensure that there is independence, what we won't have here is an independent body, ihat was a disaster, misconceived on many fronts but there is a vacuum and that causes concern for any right minded individual, including members of the

armed forces. so what do you see as the middle ground then, that can stop the accusation, of not being not enough being done to investigate legitimate claims but at the same time protecting those who shouldn't be investigated? those are two counter balancing principles which the police day in, day out have to consider the civilian police, in my opinion, the civilian police should have a precedence and conduct of these investigations, now i hear the argument it is difficult to investigate potential crimes that have committed overseas but police officers in this country, skilled police officerings, are doing that day in, day out in fraud investigation, when it comes to investigations overseas involving a death and fatality, we only have to look at the madeleine mccann incident. we have a track record of police being able to investigate overseas, that is not a problem. so the direct answer to your question is the civilian police should investigate proper allegations, i don't know whether these

allegations, the 1500 that remain have credence, what i will say is this, we are already being told the military police will whittle the remaining cases down to about 20. how are they going to do this? it is a rather swift announcement to make, one would hope they have come to that conclusion after carefully considering the 1500, and if they have, and they have whittle it it down to 20, i am please for the members of the armed forces and theirfamilies but members of the armed forces and their families but in whittling members of the armed forces and theirfamilies but in whittling down 1500 to 20, so quickly, does give me cause for concern as to how deep their inquiry has gone. it is interesting you are talking about the alarm bells and the idea of the military investigating the military. in the same breath and we asked this of mark lancaster earlier on, the sign, was enough attention paid to what phil shiner was doing? were through rumours in your profession? it must be a fairly tight knight group of people, were there rumour,

did no—one call it up soon enough as to what was going on? as far as we are concerned no, certainly not. we are concerned no, certainly not. we are all independent practitioners, certainly the bar and the solicitor works within their own firm, there was no concern whatsoever. when they we re was no concern whatsoever. when they were raised and brought before his own professional tribunal, they properly dell with the matter and all professional tribunals in the law, be it is the bar, councilfor barristers or the bar standards board for barristers or the solicitor‘s regulatory authority, they give no favour, once it was brought to their attention firm steps were taken, and, but i nit is very important, to emphasise again here and now, that was one individual, there many hundreds of human rights lawyers practise, often doing work for no payment whatsoever, and human rights lawyers aren't just involved whatsoever, and human rights lawyers aren'tjust involved with military work, they are involved with making

sure elderly people have proper homes to go to, we have proper education, freedom of speech, we have rights to fair trial, let us not throw the baby out with the bath water on the human rights' lawyers prospective. 0ne water on the human rights' lawyers prospective. one potential bad apple doesn't change that. one bad journalist doesn't make the whole cad rein any way poor. let us get perspective here. thank you very much for your time. here's matt, with a look at this morning's weather. a bit wintry. a typical scene, a slight dusting of snow, not causing huge problems. it makes for a few slippery roads an pavement, most of the snow will turn back to rain. i have managed to locate a bit of sunshine from our weather watchers here in northern ireland, just a short while ago, cracking but frosty

start and short while ago, cracking but frosty startand in short while ago, cracking but frosty start and in western scotland, got down to minus 10 in parts of the highlands but the exception rather than the rule. most grey starts, raw in the wind, patchy rain and drizzle east in scotland and eastern england to the north, on the hills we are seeing sleet and snow. it is sleet and snow in wail, the midlands and the far south—east. it will come and do. it will turn back to rain and sleet and it will feel particularly raw because of the wind. the wind strengthens through the day, parts of south—east scotland, northern england could get close to gale force and blowy in western wales, it will continue to feed in patchy rain drizzle and a bit of sleet in the afternoon, the driegtest —— driest bigoter weather is in eastern scotland. a few lair required if you are outdoors and that will be the case if you are off to watch the by case if you are off to watch the rugby in cardiff between wales and england. not too much trouble on the

roads and through the night it will be mainly rain or drizzle for many. there will be sleet and snow in places overnight. giving a dusting of snow, more especially to the hills. temperatures above freezing, a few breaks in the west and to northern scotland and northern ireland. but as for sunday, it is a great cloud that will dominate once more, and further rain or drizzle at times. mainly this stretch from east anglia, wales, through into northern england and scotland. snow over the hiring ground, far north of scotland, northern ireland, a bit of sunshine, not as much as today. it is here where we will see the best of any of the brightness as we go into monday, across southern areas but notice over the necks few days the temperature trend is an upward one, if you a not enjoying the chill in the air, bear with it, things will turn milder necks week and feel more spring like. is that new graph matt? we have used it a few time,

you change it according to the situation. you haven't been paying attention! volunteers have told breakfast in the past few hours than 200 more whales have become stranded on a beach in new zealand. hundreds more have already died in one of the biggest ever mass strandings in the country's history. it's hoped the pilot whales may be able to swim to safety during the next high tide. just to warn you, you might find some of the scenes in this report by simon clemison distressing. you are right, we worked hard and got the 100 wales off that survived overnight, and, we have lost sight of them, but the bad part of the story is a separate pod of 240 whales have come on and restranded just south of that, so, we have been fighting to keep those ones happy,

but yes, it is pretty grim out here. so what, overnight you said that many of the whales had died, they had just not survived. no, overnight most of them survived but what has happened and those ones got refloated and rebelieve successful. another pod of pilot whales, 240 at last count have stranded further south where we were doing our work. people have been trying to care for them all afternoon. so you say the tide is coming in, and now, in theory does that mean this is a possible time they may be able to work themselves free again? yes, that is possible. it's not something that is possible. it's not something that usually happens, and, we could have kept people out there a bit longer but we have had a few people who got hypothermic and we have large schools of stingrays coming m, large schools of stingrays coming in, so it is too dangerous to leave

people out there. now, there is a lot of speculation about why it is that more of the whales are there than usual, this is i think the biggest stranding there has been in living memory in new zealand. are you any clearer about why so many are at that particular place at that time. yes, well, there is always a lot of marine mammal activity round this area, and there are a lot of these pilot whales, in the southern 0cean this is a class sieve stranding spot, a beautiful location, but if you a whale it is lethal. there is a big swathe of sand, and the water is very shallow for a long way, and so as the whales come in, they get disorientated and trapped and it is all down hill from there. so looking ahead now, andrew, it is going to be dark in a few hours' time. you said the tide is come. what are your hopes for the

next few hours, 12 hours or so? my hope for the next few hours is all these people we have taken off the beach manage to get somewhere warm and have a good meal and prepare themselves for another big push tomorrow morning, like i said, it is way too risky to have anything going on 5“ we trying*** 57. way too risky to have anything going on 5“ we trying to 7, 57. way too risky to have anything going on 5“ we trying to keep 555 on from now, so we trying to keep refreshed and go for another push in the morning to work on whatever whales we have left to deal with. that 0dyssey pavilionration is ongoing. we will keep you up—to—date. it is coming up to 23 minutes past nine. time for a look the newspapers. david davies, former chief executive of the football association is here to tell us what's caught his eye. we'llspeakto him in a minute, we will start with trump. there is

stuff going on on twitter. hillary clinton has made a come back. she has. he continues to be everywhere. if you see that picture in the daily mirror. wouldn't you like to be inside his mind? perhaps you wouldn't, i don't know. but, inside his mind? perhaps you wouldn't, idon't know. but, i inside his mind? perhaps you wouldn't, i don't know. but, ithink he must have some self—doubt, hear is dear old hillary clinton. i suspect president trump taught he had seen her off but she helping him with a short tweet saying 3—0, that he is losing these battles in the court. law courts. ijust detect this week there's been a subtle difference in donald trump. he is at last, he is changing his mind a bit on china, he's being rather nicer to one or two people, the mexicans of course, are undermining him a bit, why he isn't building the wall yet, they seem to be plotting as to how they seem to be plotting as to how they will come through and overand

under the wall, when it is finally built. so reality is dawning, on even this president. nonetheless, air force one, the latest line is that he pledges that if he can't get that, bill through the courts just have another one. he will have another one, but you know, the reality of thisjob, another one, but you know, the reality of this job, he, ultimately, imean reality of this job, he, ultimately, i mean his popularity levels are at are i mean his popularity levels are at a re low i mean his popularity levels are at are low but it is entirely true that for example on his, the existing policy, that is causing so much controversy in the court, he appears to have a majority. and a majority... that put him in. on the other side, he lost the popular vote substantially. not but a few al gore 100 votes or so, but three, four million i think. so it is a difficult line for him. you are going to talk about back pain. this will mean a lot for a lot of people.

it is so prevalent. the guardian is highlighting what i think is one of the great medical disasters of certainly my life time millions of people suffer from back pain and they get contradictory advice, i declare my interest. i had a back interest some 25 years ago, touch wood, which was a great success but a lot of people struggle, they are told exercise, it doesn't get better, so they go to see somebody else who says rest, rest, rest. and here we have in this, in this story, low back and neck pain is a widespread and expensive condition worldwide, costing the us alone, £88 billion, $88 billion, despite evidence that most treatments don't work. it it is amazing. how is back right now? touch wood, ok. it was a

great triumph for me, personally, at the time, buzz it was, there was the question i ask is, am i go, is it going to be worse, what are the risks of, what is the percentage risks of, what is the percentage risk of something getting worse? i was told many my case it was 15, 20% on this unusual back operation, that ihad, and on this unusual back operation, that i had, and it worked. so, iam very grateful. pleased to hear about that. wine tasting now? is that what we are saying? experts are out of fashion, and not just we are saying? experts are out of fashion, and notjust experts in politics, after michael gove in the election an brexit. experts generally. and in a blind test, where the labels were hidden they we re where the labels were hidden they were asked to identify different red wines by smell, and the predictive powers we re wines by smell, and the predictive powers were found to be no better than those of novices, there were 12 professional, 20 novices and there was no difference in the outcome. isn't that because it is totally

subjective though, whether you like wine or not? that is what i think. i am volunteering to be in the next group of novices, in this, i think it is... smelling not tasting. to be fair it was smelling, but that is meant to be the one or two experts who i have listened to, they tell me they can tell whether it is good or bad from the smell. just drink it! give us a quick line on sport, that is your thing. netball. controversy in netball buzz the government is to spend 17 million encouraging women to play netball: a columnist this express says netball, about as friendly and inclusive as the hunger game, i would sooner break rocks with a teaspoon. i love netball. that was one of my favourite sports at school. 165,000 adult women are playing netball, but the rivalry, when we were pushing, in my time,

women's football, girls football, you cannot believe how it used to upset some of the other sports, dare i say including netball and hockey. but, i love them all. i think they are great sports. i love netball. good to see you. it is just coming up good to see you. it is just coming up to 29 minutes past nine. we are on bbc one until 10.00, when matt ta kes on bbc one until 10.00, when matt takes over in the saturday kitchen. what you got for us? our special guest used to be in the brilliant band the saturdays, she is going solo. it is una healy. you are here to face food heaven or hell. scary times. what is your idea of heaven? a lovely juice times. what is your idea of heaven? a lovelyjuice i can cod. hell? a mackerel. we have two great chefs. i am cooking 0k pus with a sauce. mackerel. we have two great chefs. i

am cooking ok pus with a sauce. nice cod, mackerel and octopus and from a restau ra nt cod, mackerel and octopus and from a restaurant serving english and russian food... i am cooking crispy chicken with sprout shaw. that sounds very english. all that and wine. see you at ten. sprout shaw! that is a new one. what did she get here? probably nowt! a special bond of five-a-side football, journalist james brown will be here to tell us about the story inspired by the death of one of his team—mates. story inspired by the death of one of his team-mates. stay with us. hello, this is breakfast, with charlie stayt and steph mcgovern.

coming up before ten, matt will be here with the weather. but first, a summary of this morning's main news. a £20 million drive to find the future experts capable of defending britain from cyber—attacks has been announced by ministers. thousands of schoolchildren in england will learn about cyber security in lessons — after a commons committee highlighted a skills shortage and labelled our current handling of breaches as "chaotic". donald trump has said he may rewrite the presidential order imposing restrictions on travel to the us in a bid overcome legal obstacles which have frustrated his efforts so far. the president unveiled the ban at the end of his first week in office, barring entry to travellers from seven majority—muslim countries. earlier this week an appeals court upheld the suspension of the immigration rule. the case may now proceed

to the supreme court. the funding of parks has reached a tipping point and new ways of paying for them may have to be found. that's according to the commons communities and local government committee which says parks are suffering because of cuts in council funding. it warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect of the 1980s. labour has issued formal warnings to members of its front—bench team who disobeyed jeremy corbyn's order to vote for brexit. but they're not being sacked. among those who ignored mr corbyn were 11 shadow junior ministers and three of the labour whips. hundreds of people from across the world have been competing this week in a sport that combines dancing and flying — indoors. this is the wind games. you can compete in pairs, fours or as a solo contestant. going as two might be difficult

enough but wait, two go out and income four of them. i don't understand how they control their body. you get marks for speed and accuracy. just watching it makes me feel a bit dizzy. have you seen that? i saw a team who we re have you seen that? i saw a team who were going to participate in the world outdoor skydiving championships. this year, the british team are in with a chance of a medal at the world indoor championships. it requires a lot of practice. it looks fun. building up to one of the biggest sporting events of the year. wales have the chance to end the winning run of eddie jones. have the chance to end the winning

run of eddiejones. he is filling the shoes of warren gatland. it is a fascinating match with shenanigans going on in the week. one of the oldest fixtures in rugby union will kick off later today when wales welcome england to cardiff on the second weekend of the six nations. 0ur sports correspondentjoe wilson is at the principality stadium this morning. good morning, you have got the place to yourself just about. let's first of all talk about eddiejones playing tom jones the welsh singer and playing delilah to the england team. you have been talking about all the shenanigans. is this a sign that eddiejones all the shenanigans. is this a sign that eddie jones is all the shenanigans. is this a sign that eddiejones is worried about this one? i don't know. the thing about eddie jones is this one? i don't know. the thing about eddiejones is we have to take everything he says with a certain degree of a pinch of salt. what he does is generate interest in not only england but rugby union. it is a saturday morning and we are not talking about football and that is unusual at this time of year. in

terms of the specific shenanigans, i saw a couple of daffodils poking through the snow this morning. no sign ofany through the snow this morning. no sign of any goats yet. what we do have i'm delighted to say is perhaps the most important thing, the trophy itself. this is a redesigned six nations trophy. it is it decided to reflect the six nations which came in in 2000. italy have not yet lifted this and neither have scotland. scotland will be in a great position if they win in france tomorrow. that will be sunday's drama. with a weight of international caps, you have to say the wales when a very strong position but england, it is such a long time since they lost to anybody as we have heard so many times, winning is a habit. england showed last weekend even though they were not for a good against france they found the composure to win that game. history shows that the roof

matters. given the record the england have with the roof being open, so different to when it is closed? absolutely. if you are in eddiejones‘ shoes, closed? absolutely. if you are in eddie jones' shoes, why closed? absolutely. if you are in eddiejones‘ shoes, why would you choose anything else than to have the roof open. there isjust a light drizzle falling at the moment. rugby union is an outdoor sport. this place. be a cauldron even if you ta ke place. be a cauldron even if you take the roof off. what i love about this stadium which was originally called the millennium stadium and is now the principality stadium, even though you get 70,000 people in here it feels smaller because the seats are so close to the action. we will have a great feeling here whether the roof is open or not. they're all the roof is open or not. they're all the back row forwards who have not been to cardiff before, how they deal with the occasion as well as dealing with wales. and there is the

interim coach who has to decide whether to risk george north and dan biggar after the knocks in the last game? we saw them training in the light training session here yesterday. it has been a big talking point. i wonder if it could be another shenanigan mind game from rob howley? there is the possibility that neither of those guys will start the game for wales. sam davies could come on and make an impact like he did last weekend against italy. it is interesting, rob howley‘s position, because he is like the caretaker coach or the supply teacher. does he do something different to changing into his team or does he hand them back to warren gatland and say not too much damage done? i cannot wait for it all to begin! the coverage begins at 4:15pm on bbc one this afternoon. away from the six nations

and history was made in the premiership last night, as bristol's tom varndell, became the league's all—time, top try scorer. the division's bottom side were thrashed by harlequins, but varndell scored his 91st premiership try, to take him beyond mark cueto's record. a last gasp penalty from, rhys priestland, gave third place bath, a one point victory over northampton. elsewhere sale sharks beat newcastle. scarlets moved into the top four of the pro 12, after an important win over glasgow. tom williams scored one of their two tries. the top two of munster and 0spreys, both won, and so did ulster. the big football news this morning is confusion, over the future of the rangers manager mark warburton this morning. rangers said in a statement, that he had resigned from his position, but warburton says he wasn't aware of that, and is consulting his legal team. rangers are third in the scottish premiership, but 27 points behind celtic. rangers play greenock morton tomorrow, in the scottish cup fifth round, and under—20 coach graeme murty, is set to lead the side in place of warburton.

celtic are the early kick off today — they play inverness. there is one game in the premiership today — dundee are playing kilmarnock. the early kick off in the premier league is at the emirates, where arsenal take on a rejuvenated hull city. arsenal are currently in fourth, but have lost their last two matches, which has led to renewed speculation over manager arsene wenger‘s future. former arsenal and england striker ian wright thinks this will be wenger‘s last season in charge. i was with the boss last night and ifiam i was with the boss last night and if i am going to be totally honest, i get the impression that that is it. i genuinely believe... i was with him for a few hours last night. he did not say i am leaving at the end of the season, but i get the impression looking at him, that is it. i think that's it. he actually mentioned while we were talking last night that he is coming to the end. i have never heard him say that. elsewhere, manchester united take on watford. and there's a big one in the late

kick off with second place spurs at liverpool. sheffield wednesday are still on course to reach the play offs at least, in the championship, after beating birmingham city. their spending in the transfer window is already paying off. that's new boyjordan rhodes, afterjust nine minutes, of his home debut. a special moment as he went off to celebrate with his dad who is the goalkeeping coach. further goals from another signing sam winnall, and adam reach sealed the win. leigh's return to rugby league's super league, got off to a disappointing start, as they were taught a lesson at castleford. the tigers ran in seven tries including this from winger greg eden. 44—16 the final score. elsewhere, huddersfield giants beat widnes 28—16. england's danny willett is well placed to win golf‘s maybank championship in malaysia. last year's masters champion will head into the final round with a three shot lead over his nearest rival after shooting a second successive 67. willet made six birdies, including one on each of the final two holes. barry hawkins is into

the final of snooker‘s world grand prix in preston. he eased past liang wenbo of china 6—1 — finishing in style with a break of 127. he'll now face either marco fu or ryan day on sunday. in tennis great britain's women continue their fed cup campaign this morning. it's all rather complicated, but if they beat croatia in today's promotion play—off they'll progress to another play off. if they win that they'll get into the second tier of the competition. so far it's going well — heather watson is one set up in the first rubber. heather watson has just won heather watson hasjust won her first rubber to give great britain a 1-0 first rubber to give great britain a 1—0 lead. for years now snowdonia in north wales has been establishing itself as a centre for extreme adventure sports, with europe's longest and fastest zipwire — and a unique surfing lake. now former slate mines have been brought back to life, to add a bit of an adrenalin rush to history lessons.

ijoined a school party in one of the vast caverns, at blaenau ffestiniog. beneath this sci—fi landscape, there is an industrial world waiting to be discovered again. a labrynth of 300 tunnels and caverns, 24 storeys deep. former slate mines to be explored using climbing skills and zip wires, giving you an insight into the life of a minor 200 feet the rock face. tell me this is not real, that this is a horrible dream? all that supports you are staples hammered into the rock. of course, you have a harness and two special clips

which cannot be unhooked at the same time but your mind paralyses you with fear. i am on a wooden plank 100 feet in the air across an old quarry! see you later. what is incredible is when you stop for a moment and look down and look around and realise this is where people worked! how terrifying must that have been? some forced to work here were as young as six years old. when i first came here i learned what the miners had to do with the tools. we have a great safety system but theyjust used to wrap chains around their legs and hang on the edge of the wall. it is crazy that they would do that for 12 hours a day in the pitch black. ewell worked on the open mines here until the 19705 but now he is back working as a safety inspector. it has given them a new lease of life. it brings people and money in. there is a saying that blaenau ffestiniog rooved the world so we are very proud of the culture and we have embraced that culture. once you've had the training it is up to you to get around the three—hour long course.

slowly but surely you conquer the fears in your head, it starts to become more enjoyable now. the sensation when you have achieved it is outstanding. you learn more about yourself than you do looking at your iphone. the ten and 11—year—old school pupils took it in their stride. having seen one lad fall off the monkey bars 200 feet up... it was really scary, i thought i would fall. i gave it a miss, heading for the final heart stopping challenge. i am not going to look down. this is the stairway to heaven. and they save the steepest zip wire to last. 0ooh!

some people do this everyday! mad! i think the fear does get worse as you get older. ifelt like i think the fear does get worse as you get older. i felt like a i think the fear does get worse as you get older. ifelt like a hobbit in lord of the rings. the youngsters ta ke in lord of the rings. the youngsters take it in their stride, even the chap who fell off. he had a harness on. and a really fascinating way to learn about history of the minds. the youngsters were only six and they had a chain which they had to put in the rocks themselves with just a campbell. they were working in the dark —— just a candle. amazing. do you want to give a prediction for the score for england and whales? —— england and wales. whales 15, england 22. you are

watching breakfast from bbc news. schoolchildren in england are going to be offered lessons in cyber security. president trump is said to be considering a new executive order on immigration. he may not take his case to reinstate the travel ban to the supreme court. now it is time to find out what is happening with the weather. there is a bit of snow around at the moment. yes, there certainly is for some. this was the view of one of our weather watchers in county durham. there is a centimetre or two on the ground. you will still be able to

get around your day without too much hindrance. it is not a completely wintry picture. in the shetland isles, as you can see, sun clear skies. clouding over in northern ireland. the north—west islands continue to see some sunshine. eastern scotland have rain and drizzle along the coasts. some rain and sleet inland. we will see the snow pep up on the hills of northern england. it is sleet, snow and drizzle anywhere across the south. if you are in parts of sussex and ethics and also kent, the snow will get heavier in the next hour or two. it is pushing him off the north sea. elsewhere, when you have seen some flurries of snow this morning, it will turn to sleet or rain and

drizzle. the best of the weather across the north of scotland and the west of ireland. temperatures, much of the muchness wherever you are. the wind strengthens through tonight. it will bring more cloud, rain, drizzle, sleet and snow in. a few clearer skies towards parts of northern ireland, devon and cornwall. if you do see those breaks, there will be a touch of frost. most frost free but every bit as cold into tomorrow morning. it will probably feel colder given the winds are stronger. a few brighter brent to the day —— brighter breaks to the day. what we do see from the cloud is the mix of rain, drizzle, sleet and health snow and temperatures feeling close to freezing rather than for 6 degrees.

if it is too cold for you, there is a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. temperatures slowly rise on monday. still chilly for scotland and ireland. many of you by the time of it to wednesday will see temperatures into double figures. it will feel a bit more like spring which is fantastic news for those of you entering a week off for half term. so there is some light at the end of the tunnel. back to you both. have a lovely weekend! in the past week, three cyclists have been killed in the space of four days on london's roads, and campaigners are gathering this morning to demand ministers make cycling safer. but figures nationally show that could already be the case, with cycling deaths falling over the past decade. 0ur reporter holly hamilton has more on this, she's in trafalgar square for us this morning. morning, holly. good morning. it does seem that more people than ever are taking to the roads on two wheels. in the past two decades, the

number of cyclists has gone up by more than a quarter. there have been plenty of road safety initiatives that have been put in place by the government, and it does seem to be working. in the past ten years, the number of road deaths has been going down. sadly, three deaths in one week in london has prompted a protest here in trafalgar square later this afternoon. 0ne protest here in trafalgar square later this afternoon. one of those taking partjoins later this afternoon. one of those taking part joins me later this afternoon. one of those taking partjoins me now. you are quite an experienced cyclist. you cycle with baby 0wen. what is it like? i cycle in london every day. we do not have a car so this is my car equivalent. i have three children and we go everywhere by bike because i find it the most

quickest and convenient. my husband andl quickest and convenient. my husband and i work long hours and it is the only way we can get from a to b and get the children to school and nursery. my overwhelming experience is positive. especially with a bike like this. i get a lot of positive feedback from people. but a lot of people stop me to say they think it is great but they feel too scared to cycle. ultimately, that is what we have to work on. it is tragic that we have had deaths this week. it is great that the death rate overall is improving but until people feel safe, which i'm afraid most people would not feel safe cycling alongside a bus or an hgv with a baby, and! alongside a bus or an hgv with a baby, and i totally sympathise with those people and i can see why. we need to be concentrating on separating bicycles from hgvs and buses and keeping them separate.

what are you hoping to achieve from this protest which you will be attending this afternoon? we are asking for what i think is a pretty modest request which is 10% of the transport budget for 2020 to be allocated to protected cycling and walking infrastructure. given that most of us will walk or cycle at some point in our lives feels like not throw much to ask for but it feels very far—off from what we have at the moment. the un is calling for 20% by 2025. we have thousands of people dying from air pollution related to diseases and inactivity, type two diabetes and heart disease. lam type two diabetes and heart disease. i am actually a doctor is well. so we cannot afford not to have people walking and cycling really, but we have to make it safer and more pleasant for them to do.|j have to make it safer and more pleasant for them to do. i think a lot of campaigners this afternoon will agree with you. one of the

things you mentioned is that hgvs are an issue for you. we are joined by rod mckenzie fund the road haulage association. 0ne by rod mckenzie fund the road haulage association. one of those who died this week, it was an hgv that was involved, how serious is this issue? we do not know the circumstances and one road death is one too many. we are committed to road safety. an hgv driver's training is all about safety, protecting vulnerable road users. this stuff really matters. you see lorries going around with four stickers on, that is a fleet operator scheme which is designed to produce the very best safest training. but everyone has a stake in this. all road users must play their part. there are some great cyclists out there but there are also some dangerous cyclists who bring cycling into an area of risk. we think it is about education.

everyone needs better training to be safer from the roads. thank you for joining us this morning. i think the m essa 9 es eve ryo ne joining us this morning. i think the messages everyone has the same goal. everyone wants no deaths on our roads. the department for transport have said they are doing everything they can to increase the amount of investment on our infrastructure and it has tripled in the past five yea rs. it has tripled in the past five years. the event taking place here in trafalgar square is a protest. it is also a memorial to those who have died. everyone is in agreement that one death is one too many. thank you. there's something quite unique about the bond between a group of middle—aged footballers who gather once or twice a week come rain or shine to play 5—a—side. but it wasn't until our next guest, journalist james brown suddenly lost one of his team mates that he realised just how remarkable a bond it is. so much so that he decided to write a book about it. hejoins us now. morning to you. tell us the tale.

this is a group of middle—aged men? i have been playing amateurfootball all my life. 14 months ago a friend died. he was the organiser of our team. i realise that the funeral i have never seen any of the mourners in clothes before, they were always in shorts and tight tops. it was very sad that james passed away. he had not been ill or anything. ijust thought about this world of passionate footballers. we play in rain and shine. no one cheers us on. you're basically living out the dream. every week someone scores an amazing goal. if it had been on match of the day it would be goal of the week. i really wanted to get into that world of what i call sporting karaoke. what is interesting is the point you make that you can play together every week for years and years but actually not know that much about

each other? james was a friend who introduced me to the game but i play three games a week, the majority of the guys i do not know their surnames, i don't know what they do for a living, i don't know if they are married or they have kids. i know what their personalities are like on the pitch. that particular gamei like on the pitch. that particular game i have been playing for 17 yea rs. game i have been playing for 17 years. the feedback i have got from other players, i have asked for a lot of stories through twitter and so on, people say the same thing. it might be through workmates or an ever expanding group and the game evolves all the time, unless you are in the legal something. do think thatis in the legal something. do think that is why people like it so much. it is not as if you are living each other‘s lives, you're not next—door neighbours. it is when you don't have to deal with all the other stuff, is that part of the attraction? definitely when you get older. when you get the

responsibilities of family, work, pressures of health, this is just an escape. it is a very noisy version of yoga. you clear your mind, you have to look at what everybody is doing. if you make a great save or score a great goal, that stays in your mind for ages. what do you cover in your book? i start with james' death. i cover all of the things that go on every day, every week. anybody who lives in an inner—city sees people at lunchtime with big coats and football kits. every time the ball goes over a fence in an outdoor pitch it will not come back first time, you stand around and wait for a kid to throw it back. there are goalkeepers who wear gloves but cannot catch the ball. there are fact guys who can shoot, skinny guys who cannot tackle, there is everything, the camaraderie. i love playing

football. i was never good enough to bea football. i was never good enough to be a professional footballer but i think it is that love of playing. half a million people play every week. did the death of the guy you play with, did that make you think a bit harder about whether you should know people better? did you think, we should spend time together or did you settle back again? the thing that was really touching was the following week, nobody organised us but we went to the middle and we stood there and shut up for a minute and thought about him. specifically, james was the organiser of our game and they are the unsung heroes. not the guys who play at power league or goals, the ones who play amongst themselves, who get the bids, who make sure we have got a ball. he was the one who kept the score. we never know the score any more. it is

moving. there will be people this morning heading out in the rain or the snow or whatever. james' book is called above head height. now before we go we have been talking about parks and a lot of you have been sending in your pictures. we have a misty sunrise. james has snapped this one. this was last year a p pa re ntly snapped this one. this was last year apparently but it is a nice picture! and this is ruby having an afternoon run in water with her owner —— a run in rotherham. we have some great amateur autocracies here. —— some great amateur photographers here. if you are at in the park, have a great day. we are back tomorrow at 6am.

that is it from us. this is bbc news. the headlines at ten. president trump says he might rewrite the travel ban on people from seven mainly— muslim countries after his initial attempt was overturned in the courts. we'll win that battle, but we also have a lot of other options, including just filing a brand new order on monday. labour issues formal written warnings to front bench mps who defied jeremy corbyn in the commons brexit vote. lessons in cyber security for schoolchildren in england to boost defences against attacks. volunteers in new zealand have managed to refloat around a hundred pilot whales stranded on a remote beach. also in the next hour — protecting public parks a warning green spaces are at a "tipping point",
