been that security has been tightened backin that security has been tightened back in england. the express features a story about migrant workers saying that official figures reveal a 19 people working in the uk migrants. 0k, we will start with the times, to ignores us call forfresh start and backs asset, no surprise. not really. putin and trump have fallen out and have retreated to opposite sides of the playground. laughter luckily we have some ownership of rex tillerson and his russian counterpart who appear to be grown—ups and talking in the way that you expect credits to talk tillerson says that this is the not the way nuclear superpowers would behave. let's leave their children to one side and let's mean you have a chat about this. it is reassuring, frankly, considering you have someone frankly, considering you have someone in donald trump who appears to behave in a different way depending on whether or not he was allowed as can touristy. i am

heartened by the fact that tillerson is in moscow, that he is talking to the russians who are talking back to him, if not necessarily politely. this was an camera, for the sake of the journalist in our look outside the journalist in our look outside the room and once anyone leaves the room it is what matters inside the room. it is interesting that putin said that he was not aware that it was possible for the russian american relationship to deteriorate underobama, and he american relationship to deteriorate under obama, and he is now saying it is really bad, considering he went to so much effort to fix the us election, you must be really annoyed. it is like you're watching annoyed. it is like you're watching a film. this is, we're laughing about it, but this is serious, the us navy, as donald trump says very powerful submarines, heading towards the korean peninsula, you have russia america saying the one step away from law. —— wanted away from the war. now, it is all serious.

luckily, i think rex tillerson, as susie says, we have a grown—up who says we have to find a way out of it. i think if you speak to the foreign office they are convinced that america realises that all this talk about trumping close to putin, clearly not now. britain are relatively happy, doris will treat —— boris will speak to him tomorrow morning and that should cheer eve ryo ne morning and that should cheer everyone up. whoa reasons to be cheerful, number one, one of the first thing that sergei lavrov said after meeting with mr tillerson is that they are going to re—establish the protocols which mean that they will warn each other over the skies of syria is a russian jet is there and an american jet is there. and they will have those safety procedures in place will stop they scrap those open to this meeting today after the bombing of the airbase last week. so, they are co—operating at the shoppers and that this debate. the people with

the actual bombs are now talking to each again. but last week they said, we are going to bomb that in the ministry move your claims, that is how close this age. if one of them had gone wrong and the russian had been killed, we dread to think, they are posturing, but there is a back channel the roof racks to lament and we should be grateful for that. let's go onto the metro, russia pointed the finger at britain. this is more of the same, i think bush is a night, i saw this earlier run —— russia is annoyed. perhaps public posturing they have to be seen to be jabbing the finger at britain. this will go on a lot but never excrete a think we will see the foreign secretary reconvening and britain thinks they are closer to sanctions then would believe. theyjust don't have the evidence. there is more

there than i think was reported, perhaps this is so it's getting to russia that has a good point, susie, perhaps the italians and the germans do not believe there is another evidence pointing the finger at at assad but this attack last week. but, the russians are saying let's have an investigation, that is what is needed and that is what ahmadinejad said today, yet there was a draft resolution at the un saying, we should compel. —— that is what sergei lavrov said today. we should compel the in 2013 the last time asset gasped some of his own people, there was a resolution and he opened up his weapons for inspection he said he tend over all his sarin, and that was not worth the matchbox that it was not worth the matchbox that it was written on. but russia was the

guarantorfor was written on. but russia was the guarantor for that. this is was written on. but russia was the guarantorfor that. this is to superpowers having it out with each other using a smaller complex to express their point of view, same with beer now and lots of other was, it has happened to our history. while all this is going on talking about sanctions, syria has had sanctions before now, bush and has had sanctions, this does not necessarily tend to alter the actual situation, it makes things drag an. it does not de—escalates. situation, it makes things drag an. it does not de-escalates. there is a huge allegation that so much of russian oligarch ill gotten gains are laundered through this place, not the bbc! that would be a great story! you had that as well, do new? through london, that would be the surest quick weight quick rush in where it hurts, with stick? you saw that with ukraine, after the crimea, downing street's position that was for bush or to go back to the naval

stations, then they went to sanctions. —— was all russia to go back to the naval stations. assad's chemical weapons chief, his son has citizenship. if we are that short on it we should clamp down on the money as well. there's going to the telegraph them, rise in violent crime, susie? yes will stop there has been lots of decline imbalance crime and the metropolitan police have reported this massive leap in london. london centric story, but important. good crime has gone up 43%, sex crimes, they have all increased. the met says this is because they do not have enough resources , because they do not have enough resources, they say they cannot do anything, they have to deal with mental health cases because of problems in the nhs, more people are ill and on the street, more people are homeless, and also because child protection issues, there has been in

the wake of thejimmy savile is there's been more will put an claims. critics are saying comic you have also spent £25 million chasing journalists who paid sources, not one of whom was found to have done any wrong doing, you spent years going at the bone hacking, going after westminster paedophiles that don't appear to have existed. you are currently going after ed heath who is dead, whether he is a paedophile or not will not affect anyone in the future. you are not spending your resources on the right thing. the issue is, does the police need more money or do they need to use its offices on the things that affect most people's lives? knife crime gun crime will make a difference. not to denigrate those victims of sexual violence. of course not. but, is that the government's argument that you are not spending your money wise enough mr policeman? if you look on twitter

people have been talking about this knife crime issue, and they would happily believe this could have been sorted out ten years ago, the government was too late to ban certain knives on amazon, this has to prompt a response. david cameron looked it doing hello, he enacted a law under pressure weather would be mandatory... only a small number of those people go to jail and they've is doing anything about this. 24%, 4000 knife incidents a year, ten a day. we see kids murdered in the streets by knives, when will someone deserving about it? onto the student tax by stealth, millions of graduates who hit by steep rising interest rates on their student loa ns ? interest rates on their student loans? and you have to remember that most will not pay that, it is the tax players being hit by this. everyone who has and more than

£10,000 a gearand everyone who has and more than £10,000 a gear and is therefore paying some income tax has to repay some of this eventually, if you do not earn enough as a graduate to repay all of your loan, after 30 yea rs repay all of your loan, after 30 years it gets written nothing goes back onto the taxpayer ‘s debt on our bill. this is a system by which if you are going an awful lot after you go trick, if your doctor or high—flying lawyer in make sense to pay your fees in advance therefore you come from a wealthy family say you come from a wealthy family say you will become a doctor or lawyer and you are, wealthy family yourself. if you're going to go to w might notan yourself. if you're going to go to w might not an huge amounts of money, media studies or something like that, it makes sense to take out a loa n that, it makes sense to take out a loan that you never ever pay it back. except as a pax player you paid in general taxation and this all comes down on the end to us. although there were all the pancake, saying he had the paid the own education fundamentally the way they have set up the tuition fees it

means the taxpayer pays most of it. you have to get a job you are a student at the end of it to pay off the loans, your point, is that in getting the kind ofjob that will pay off the lens is the difficulty. there is two things. this is to do with the inflation numbers as inflation creases up we will see a lot more of this, it is one of these controversial things like train fares the government links the ipi which has a high rate of inflation. the retail prices. it feeds inflation it self. it feeds inflation it self. it feeds inflation and you see that in train fare. i don't know why they put student loans by an rpi measure, it is crazy. i think you will see a lot more stories as inflation creeps up. we only have a few more seconds to 90, we only have a few more seconds to go, financial times, elks. we only have a few more seconds to go, financialtimes, elks. just we only have a few more seconds to go, financial times, elks. just 24 bankers could not get any worse. the

head of the major investment company in sweden is being investigating of driving a former finance minister with an alcoholic. what else did you do allegedly in sweden? -- women help hunt. if you want to buy somebody in sweden you to get them a really good elk. if it was you it would be grounds suiting on the moors, wouldn't it? —— event was here. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you... if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you susie and steve. goodbye. quiet on the weather front the

season. not a lot change tomorrow. in fact the rest of the worn up to easter and the east of itself it will remain cool. this satellite picture gives you an idea of where the air is coming from. you can see the air is coming from. you can see the motion of the cloud coming from the motion of the cloud coming from the north—west and this airflow is stuck with others for the next few days. no real warmth on the way. remember, the sun is strong at this time of the year, it is as strong as it is in september comic you might be surprised to hear, so when the sun comes out it feels warm regardless of temperature, almost. tonight there was no sunshine, of course, it's clear. there'll be some frost, perhaps first thing this morning. this morning on thursday, some sunshine across the eastern areas but even across the south and

the south—west, you will notice that few showers here around say, liverpool bay, throughout the lake district, some in northern ireland and western parts of scotland but in edinburgh and at the dean and most of eastern scotland weather is looking relatively bright for you here. all in all, not a bad start to the date for most of us. and it will continue through most of thursday, these west to north—west winds coming in and i think perhaps increasing cloud and showers for a time at least across scotland, and temperatures pretty much what we have today. ten to 14 degrees which isa have today. ten to 14 degrees which is a little on the cool side but when the sun comes out is fairly decent. not an awful lot of sun on good friday, more substantial cloud still across more southern parts of uk and you will see some blobs of rain coming through at almost any time. to the north of that also some showers but the weather in the northern half of the uk on good friday will be mormeck so we will have sunny spells and showers and

then sunny spells and showers. —— will be a bit more mixed. that takes us will be a bit more mixed. that takes us to the weekend and high—pressure makes an appearance across the south of the uk where was the north will be stuck underneath the weather front. there might be a little bit more rain. overall, about a step the weather will not change, more or less the same temperatures were sunshine and a few showers. this is bbc news. i'm clive myrie. the headlines at 11: donald trump has called to the end of the war in syria, describing president bashar al—assad as a butcher slaughtering civilians with chemical weapons. following talks in moscow, the us secretary of state and his russian counterpart admit there's work to do if relations are to improve. there is a low level of trust
