east, i think many places staying dry tonight and we are likely to see a few mist and fog patches forming. a bit of low cloud and murkiness for central and eastern areas and a few fog patches as well. turning quite chilly in the countryside first thing monday morning, temperatures near freezing and a few spots, particularly for scotland, northern england, northern ireland and wales. through the course of this coming week, it is going to start with that mix of sunshine and showers. a bit of rain midweek, particularly in the west, but the temperatures are going to be warming up and things will look dry, i think, by the end of the week. so back to the here and now, a chilly start the monday morning, with some mist and fog which will slowly clear away. then sunny spells for many of us, a few showers, particularly around the eastern coast, where we have the breeze coming in off the north sea, but further inland the odd rope shower bobbing in through the afternoon. i think many of us will stay dry, especially northern ireland and the west of scotland. temperatures are 15 to 18 degrees but a bit cooler where you have that breeze across eastern scotland and north east england. some rain pushes its way
11:31 pm
south down the eastern half of the country through the course of monday night and into tuesday. but then the skies clear once again through the early hours of tuesday. so another pretty chilly night to come, and again we could see some frost in the countryside in the north. through tuesday, after that chilly start, high pressure for many of us. it will probably be the best day of the week quite widely. dry across the country, mist clearing away the season country, mist clearing away the season sunshine, and the showers we have seen recently in the east will clear away. the drier picture, and a degree also warmer, temperatures of 14 to 18 degree also warmer, temperatures of 1a to 18 celsius. by the time we get the wednesday it will turn increasingly wet and windy across the north—eastern part of the country, the south—eastern half remaining dry. it will be quite a bit warmer, as well, 19 or 20 by the time it's wednesday. that warming trend continues into the end of the week and into the coming weekend. hello. this is bbc news with martine croxon. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment — first the headlines.
11:32 pm
the terror threat level has been lowered to ‘severe‘ from critical — where it was placed after friday's bomb attack on a london tube. borisjohnson is accused of misusing official figures, for repeating claims that leaving the eu will free up £350 million a week. after the damage caused by irma, us forecasters say another major storm has strengthened into a hurricane on its approach to the eastern caribbean. human rights campaigners say the exodus of rohingya muslims — who've been driven out of myanmar by a military crackdown — is "a world class humanitarian disaster". aid workers claim around 13,100 of the refugees in bangladesh are unaccompanied children. damejudi dame judi dench reprises damejudi dench reprises her role as queen victoria in victoria and abdul. we will get marks thoughts on this and the rest of the cinema
11:33 pm
releases in the film review. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the journalist james rampton and henry zeffman, political reporter for the times. thank you both for coming in. the front pages. the metro questions whether that cctv image there on the front page shows the person who put a bomb on the london tube on friday. the sun has the same image with a similar question. the financial times leads with the statistics authority questioning boris johnson's arithmetic over that £350 million a week claimed. the guardian ta kes million a week claimed. the guardian takes the same story, saying he is facing growing pressure over what is being called a misuse of official
11:34 pm
figures. the foreign secretary is also the lead in the telegraph which reports that he told tories a £30 billion divorce bill would be unacceptable billion divorce bill would be u na cce pta ble to billion divorce bill would be unacceptable to more borisjohnson in the times saying he has been left isolated after michael gove refused to back his intervention. and plans to back his intervention. and plans to change the way compensation is paid to prisoners is on the front of the daily express. let's start with how the papers are reporting the investigation into the terror attack on friday. the times headline. suspect in tube attack given away by red hat. we need to exercise a great deal of caution with this photograph that it deal of caution with this photograph thatitis deal of caution with this photograph that it is on several from pagers tonight. yes. but that does not mean we should say anything more than that. like i said earlier, i am cautious about saying anything because i know the police have a great advantage if they do not
11:35 pm
reveal too much about their suspects because then they can surprise the alleged associates of that suspect and, you know, they will not see them coming. is donald trump, just to choose a name out of no where... 0r to choose a name out of no where... or some other person reveals too much about the suspect, they be alerted. some say could even accelerate other plots. is if there is another cell aligned to this one, planning some sort of outrage, they might think they had better speed up. it is quite dodgy ground but it does look like more information is leaking out tonight about the suspect and the bank is towering, the hat he wears. i do not wish to say more than that. the police were very clear that they were keeping an open mind about whether there was more than person involved in this. we have had another arrest. the times has more detail on the second person who has been arrested. several of the newspapers suggest
11:36 pm
that the suspect in the photo, the cctv photo was an iraqi refugee who had stayed with this couple famous for fostering refugee children, whose home was raided on saturday. they say, the times says the second person arrested is a young syrian refugee who previously lived with a couple. it all seems immensely sketchy to me that we get some detail but not from the right places. nature of hall is a vacuum and newspapers do not like lack of detailed. we do need to tread carefully here. what i would say is that the police so far have done a greatjob. they seem to have got two people of interest and have managed to reduce the threat level back to severe which is an achievement in a couple of days. staying with the times for one of three stories on
11:37 pm
borisjohnson times for one of three stories on boris johnson and his times for one of three stories on borisjohnson and his use of this figure of £350 million again. johnson cut adrift after brexit ploy backfires. an interesting relationship with him and michael gove and michael gove now saying that he never shared this view of a glorious future. of course, michael gove, famously, was the campaign managerfor boris gove, famously, was the campaign manager for boris johnson last gove, famously, was the campaign manager for borisjohnson last year. michael gove ended up running for the leadership, not particularly successfully. there was some suggestion this morning that they we re suggestion this morning that they were getting the band back together because they went so well last time. world '5 worst band... because they went so well last time. world 's worst band... patel and gove were embracing borisjohnson‘s vision for brexit. the times and the guardian both say that the first michael gove knew of borisjohnson‘s article was on friday night when it caused a storm on twitter. it seems that michael gove act theresa may on
11:38 pm
the substantive issue here on whether the uk would continue to pay money to the eu after they leave. great quote here from a friend of mr gove underlining that he did not see the article until friday night. if there was a suicide pact of that nature, you would think the boris would have the courtesy to tell us he would jump. it seems i boris is oi'i he would jump. it seems i boris is on some he would jump. it seems i boris is on some sort of suicide mission here. he has an incredible drive and ambition which we have known about what years. he seems to have pushed the button and said he will go for it. i wonder if he has overplayed his hand. there are other cabinet colleagues, amber rudd today saying she did not wish to backseat drive. but a look at the metro... in the guardian that quoted another cabinet colleague, another good quote who said that he has placed personal ambition before the interest of the country. i would absolutely echo that. it seems to be all about him and not about what will benefit this
11:39 pm
country, what it is what will benefit him. one thing worse saying is that it may not be the worst thing for his career if he gets sacked. if he seemed to go down in a blaze of glory fighting for the ambitious brexit that the vote leave campaign was all about, he could stand there on the backbenches and say here i am, prints across the water, wafer to go wrong and then come back to me. theresa may won't sack and because it is safer to have him in the cabinet? but at what point does having a foreign secretary sounding off about your strategy stock being clever? we agreed that was analogous with michael heseltine. she did not want to sack him because she knew how dangerous it would be the ten. but he sacked himself, he stormed out of a cabinet meeting and made himself her most dangerous and mean from the backbenches. is what mrs may fears from borisjohnson to backbenches. is what mrs may fears from boris johnson to let's finish i'iow from boris johnson to let's finish now with the guardian. from boris johnson to let's finish now with the guardianlj from boris johnson to let's finish now with the guardian. i know you
11:40 pm
would like to carry on but there are other stories that we need to get a look in. johnson and distortion round after brexit claims. he is now saying that he is misquoting. the bbc reality check, once again juggfing bbc reality check, once again juggling this number and they say on twitter, we have said before, the uk did notand twitter, we have said before, the uk did not and still does not send £350 million a week to the eu. that this figure is magical. it is magical. because it appeared on the side of a bus, it must be true. some of the other newspapers have pointed out that that does not include the re bate that that does not include the rebate that mrs thatcher negotiated for us, also all the subsidies which the government has said it will continue to pay, particularly to agriculture. so the fact that he has gone back to this figure seems to me almost pathological. if we do not have to pay in after the transitional period, the divorce
11:41 pm
bill is settled, the money we do contribute can be sent at spent at home, can't it? no, it will be spent oi'i home, can't it? no, it will be spent on great trade deals with albania and serbia. that sounds cynical but ido and serbia. that sounds cynical but i do wonder... during the election campaign the tories accused labour of having a magic money tree is the money does revert to the uk you will instantly be swallowed up by the national debt. they would not be able to hypothecated for a particular area because there is still debt and austerity is still a thing. if you are the conservative party would not be wise to get into an argument with labour over who will spend more on public services. you will always be less thanjeremy corbyn‘s labour party. you will always be less thanjeremy corbyn's labour party. a little piece on the side of the paper here the pay gap. women suffer a legal levels of low—paid in silence. the pay gap. women suffer a legal levels of low—paid in silencem the pay gap. women suffer a legal levels of low-paid in silence. it is a little piece but it is a big piece of news. like i said earlier, i have three daughters and according to this, two thirds of workers paid
11:42 pm
under the legal minimum wage are women and what is even more shocking, perhaps, is that they are also less likely than men to file a complaint about being underpaid. if i hope to be maintained in the style to which i am accustomed, which is not much, i would like my daughters to be paid the same as men for the same job. you said earlier it is a no—brainer, really. how can that be difficult for corporations to get their head around? two good employees doing exactly the same job, you cannot have quite a large, in some cases, pay gap between them. it is the law. exactly. as we said earlier, quite apart from it being a no brain for companies to pay it women the same as men, they are legally obliged to. stories like this save the enforcement mechanisms are not there but we need to sort them out. the times. the front page and page four, a little funny as fish on the front page. ——
11:43 pm
amuse—bouche on the front page. air passenger fury over flights cancelled by rya nair passenger fury over flights cancelled by ryanair because they have made a mess of pilots leave. ryanair, it is notjust this weekend, they say they will drop 40 or 50 flights a day of the next six weeks. they decided to change their holiday scheme which means that all of their staff, airline staff included, are eager to get the holidays now. obviously, the consequences the passengers are dire crucially, they are hiding the small print saying that customers are entitled to a refund and compensation on a separate page which you have to click through if you have read the small print. the important story here about how we bury legal things. it important story here about how we bury legalthings. it does important story here about how we bury legal things. it does seem germane to me. lord callinan, the aviation minister has attacked ryanair over this. ryanair have said
11:44 pm
in quitea ryanair over this. ryanair have said in quite a pusillanimous manner that they must do this. it does not hold they must do this. it does not hold the people stranded in europe. it affects up to 400,000 passengers. an example here of a woman trying to get brothers wedding in italy found out hours before she was due to depart that her flight was cancelled. she had to hire a van in germany and drive for 16 hours because they cannot trust ryanair. is this doing any damage to the brand? writer said the same. he said something similar about the standard of hisjewellery something similar about the standard of his jewellery and i something similar about the standard of hisjewellery and i don't think cheapness is enough to get away with it if you treat customers in this manner because they willjust walk away. they will say i don't care how cheapit away. they will say i don't care how cheap it is. if i cannot trust that the flight i purchased will go, i will fly with someone else. finally, the daily telegraph. nhs achieves on
11:45 pm
their plan for spas, facials and zomba classes at hospitals. would you like to go to a hospital for a facial? if you have had a hernia, you are not going to pop down to the gym and have a frenetic dance class. the nhs should be working as it does against great odds to save people's lives and not be distracted by this. when we hear every day there is a shortage of doctors and nurses, massive rows over scandalously underpaid medics, in my view, and now they are talking about opening, and this is very w1a, health campuses, that makes your blood boil. i would campuses, that makes your blood boil. iwould rather go campuses, that makes your blood boil. i would rather go to hospital. one of the many reasons that the nhs is under
