came to power, leader kim jong—un came to power, most observers believed that the eldest kim jong—nam was being considered as the heir to the leadership, but circumstances changed when he was captured in japan in 2001, travelling on a fake passport, apparently tried to visit disneyland. some wondered if the kim jong—nam had ever been close to his half—brother. in an interview with the japanese media in recent years, he was critical of kim jong—un and questioned his legitimacy. the current leader of the north, kim jong—un has a record for ruthlessness and he is believed to have ordered the execution of his uncle who died in 2012 and ever since the execution of his uncle, intelligence officials have been trying to analyse the psychology of the north korean leader. this is because he may soon have a working nuclear arsenal in a few years‘ time. one senior north korean diplomat who recently defected to

south korea said he genuinely believed it was in the character of kim jong—un that he would try to use a nuclear weapon against the united states if he believed he was being threatened. intelligence officials have much in their hands now to analyse about what is really happening in the north korean leadership. our ageing population presents challenges for health services right across the uk. in scotla nd services right across the uk. in scotland the integration of health and social care isn‘t tended to improve the experiences of older patients with many treated at home rather than an hospital. since april last year, the budgets have been merged to try and improve coordination, so how was working? here is our editor.

i think ithinki i think i have got better quicker. which is great. the hospital do not have enough beds. if they can do it at home, i think you‘re much better at home, i think you‘re much better at home, i think you‘re much better at home, you do not get infections, and it is the way it should go. place one foot in front of the other. this is the scottish government ‘s flagship nhs policy and action. the integration of health and social care. all the medical staff involved in mrs gibson ‘s care meet regularly to coordinate the needs of the patient. by providing care at home, they should be able to reduce a bed blocking in hospitals. integrated health and social care centres like this one combine gp practices with social work, mental health services, physiotherapy, district nurses and

health visitors. having all of that under one roof makes it much easier to coordinate the different care needs of a patient. we have traditionally had hospital care, impatience, they went out to the community to a nursing home and those things were very separate. in fa ct we those things were very separate. in fact we realised that people get much more out of our care if we can have them looked after in their own environment and importantly that they have the right care that is right for them. spending on the nhs in scotland is higher than in the rest of the uk but there are still problems. it is too soon to see any measurable nationwide change from the integration policy. we know at the integration policy. we know at the moment that there some great exa m ples the moment that there some great examples but they are not being rolled out fast enough or consistently enough across scotland given the scale of the challenge. this woman discovered integration does not work everywhere. after what should have been a very brief

hospital stay, her doctor had to battle to get the care she needed at home to allow her to be discharged. i was really annoyed about it. i was distressed about it. there are lots of people in there who do not have someone of people in there who do not have someone batting for them and they are waiting for care. it is unfortunate. we had someone batting for her. the care came in today... mrs hastings experiences exactly the kind of problem integrated care is meant to address. her case shows it is not yet working for everyone. sarah smith, bbc news, troon. there has been a huge growth in the gig economy, that is when people juggle a number of jobs without economy, that is when people juggle a number ofjobs without guaranteed hours or work on short—term contracts. now the government is carrying out a review into working practices in the sector. the tuc says tax is lost for those using self—employed laws could be up to £4 billion. here is our economic ‘s editor. meet jonathan esseku,

uber driver and a member of the new economy, self—employed, his own boss. hi, jonathan. hello, kamal. in a changing world of work that has thrown up controversies over tax, over security of employment, over the very way we will work in the 21st century. uber‘s good for me because it enables me to be flexible. you know, you can work the hours you want. when you‘re ready to work, you work and when you‘re working, you know, you‘ll be quite reasonably rewarded for your efforts. so you don‘t feel exploited? not at all. talking to entrepreneurs, the man the prime minister has asked for a plan for the new world of work. he says the amount of tax raised by the government has fallen as some businesses use it to avoid tax and rights such as maternity and holiday pay. self—employment is a legitimate route for many companies, but we‘ve got to make sure that people aren‘t simply trying to find a way of disguising real work as self—employment in order to avoid paying taxes or living up to employment regulations. a new study by the unions says the government could be losing up to £4 billion a year in lower tax payments.

that is made up of £2.1 billion lost from the rise in the self—employed, who pay less tax. and then there is the £1.9 billion lost from those on zero—hours contracts, who tend to be pushed into lower paid work. workers are losing out on basic rights. the taxpayer is losing out on funding for the exchequer to fund our schools and hospitals. but of course, the taxpayer is also having to fund a higher in—work benefits bill because very often the self—employment, zero—hours work is so low—paid. for many people, like here in central london, the new world of work is a pretty positive development, but for others there are difficulties. theresa may has pledged to enhance the rights of many people who are holding down multiplejobs. when matthew taylor‘s report comes out in the summer,

expect it to pledge new rights to fair and decent employment. and fairer taxation, the treasury is on the case, looking to next month‘s budget to reform the rules on how businesses are taxed in this new world of work. kamal ahmed, bbc news. the chancellor phillip hammond says an estimated 2 million cyber attacks on british firms and individuals took place in the last 12 months. he was speaking at the launch of a new centre devoted to defending the country from hackers. 0ur security correspondent has more. a high—tech tour for the queen today, as she formally launched the country‘s new national cyber security centre. she was shown round the new centre in london, whose mission is to protect the country

against a growing tide of cyber attacks. cyber attacks, it seems, are everywhere. russian involvement in efforts to hack information... the worst case is that all of our customers' data has been accessed. china's activities in cyberspace is a significant source of concern. hacking that could hamper vote counting. hackers targeting governments, businesses, ordinary people. the head of the new centre told me the threat is real. told me the threats are real. we‘ve had significant losses of personal data, significant intrusions by hostile state actors, significant reconnaissance against critical national infrastructure. and ourjob is to make sure we deal with that in the most effective way possible. so, what we've done here is create a room of the near future and we've got some devices that are all connected to the internet. the new centre is notjust there to protect government, but also people‘s homes. its technical director showed me how internet—connected items like lamps and coffee makers could be vulnerable, even a child‘s toy doll. more and more of our life is moving online. the uk is one of the most digitally—dependent economies in the world.

a strength, but also a vulnerability. and protecting it online in the future will be vital for economic as well as national security. gordon corera, bbc news. felix schellenberg otherwise known as cutie pie is the highest—paid star on youtube and his video clips have been watched by 15 billion times but now disney has decided to end its collaboration with the star and it says some of its videos have contained anti—semitic imagery. he denies being anti—semitic and says he meant the images to be funny. he earns £12 million from the site.

leave recently has videos have been extremely controversial. containing nazi references or anti—semitic pictures. i like the editing. in this one he asks these boys to hold up this one he asks these boys to hold upa sign this one he asks these boys to hold up a sign saying death to all dues. dusty said the videos are inappropriate. the challenge comes. . . inappropriate. the challenge comes... he can reach a massive audience. he is provocative, he can bea audience. he is provocative, he can be a dangerous proposition for any brand. on his blog, the 27-year-old responded by saying he was trying to show how crazy the modern world is, but he is in no way supporting any kind of hateful attitudes. so what does that mean for pewdewpie here on

youtube? they told us he did not break any of their roles, but his up—and—coming subscription features has been cancelled and he has been taken from the google preferred list which means top advertisers will not be posting on his videos. promoting your channel and driving traffic to your channel and driving traffic to your video is a very powerful thing and one way to do that is to shout the loudest and be the most inappropriate or most controversial, so inappropriate or most controversial, so that these new broadcasters write about what you are doing in a negative way but traffic is traffic and that is how you earn your living. and with more people heading online to dojust living. and with more people heading online to do just that, it is yet to be seen whether successful youtube is like pewdewpie can remain controversial and still repeated datuk appealed to the advertisers. now it is time for a look at the weather. that really cold weekend is

becoming a fading memory. there will becoming a fading memory. there will bea becoming a fading memory. there will be a bit of rain around as cloud comes in off the atlantic, no great amounts, i have to say. one such area of cloud will produce jobs and jobs across the uk, but many places will avoid that. it will be a murky night, fog around and more rain in the far south west by the end of the night. not particularly cold, 56 or 7 degrees will be typical. it will bea 7 degrees will be typical. it will be a wet start in parts of cornwall, parts of devon, the rain pushing into somerset and wiltshire. also parts of wales. the odd rumble of thunder is possible. further east and north, it will be a slow start, great, some mist around, not very cold, but hopefully the folk will not be too widespread. some showers

pushing and in parts of northern ireland. here are some of the best of the sunshine going through the day on wednesday. elsewhere, a bit ofa day on wednesday. elsewhere, a bit of a struggle to brighten things up much for some of us and the rain will push into the north, in an erratic fashion, some sharp bursts of rain, there‘s not much at all, pushing into england and wales and parts of scotland, something brighter following on behind, parts of scotland, something brighterfollowing on behind, a mild one, double figures again. that little feature, wanders away, we will look to the north for low pressure and some blustery showers as we go into thursday, particularly for scotland and northern ireland and the far north of england. further south, things settle down. some mist and fog around on thursday. sunshine as well. as we head into friday, we will see high pressure building in. high pressure normally been schneiderlin, that is good news, but it could be a foggy

start, this could be the scene on friday morning, that fog could be slowed to clear before eventually most of us should enjoy some sunshine. the best of that will be in the east of the uk, because through the day we will see thickening cloud and increasing wind and eventually rain knocking on the door of the west. this is bbc news. the headlines at 8.00: donald trump‘s national security adviser mike flynn has resigned. it follows allegations he mislead colleagues over contact he had with russian diplomats. he was well within his duties to discuss issues of common concern between the two countries. what this came down to was a matter of trust. it‘s the first big resignation since mr trump came to power and senior republicans say it was the right move. as soon as this person lost the president's trust, the president asked for his resignation, and that was the right thing to do. inflation has reached its highest level for two—and—a—half years,

largely due to rising fuel costs. the half—brother of north korean leader kimjong—un, has been killed in an attack in malaysia.
