he may dominate the tennis court, but roger federer has been getting attention for some other moves too. the current world number two entertained fans with his dancing when he wasjoined on court by mickey mouse at the start of the atp masters tournament in shanghai. time for a look at the weather. here's louise lear. maybe he should stick to the tennis! the thing as exciting as that with the weather, a pretty great affair and this is what most of us woke up to on monday morning and this is what most of us would like. there are some breaks in the cloud in sheltered eastern areas with some sunshine and this afternoon it should improve a little. a great start, some brighter spells coming through that cloud and in the afternoon it will be quiet and a reasonable afternoon for many. pleasa nt reasonable afternoon for many. pleasant in terms of the field, mid

teens, but with a bit more sunshine, highs of 17. the cloud is thick enough on the coast for some drizzle and maybe in another singer and later —— in north—west england and eastern scotland. make the most bitter because things will change in scotla nd bitter because things will change in scotland and or northern ireland through the night with some wet and windy weather pushing in but it a wea k windy weather pushing in but it a weak affairon windy weather pushing in but it a weak affair on the front weakened as it moves south. we will not see any significant rain across england and wales as it continues to push south, a bit more cloud and maybe some organised showers in the south—west but behind it a better day with more sunshine for many also and a degree 01’ so warm up sunshine for many also and a degree or so warm up with highs of 18. more wet and windy weather pushing into the north—west, we do it all again overnight on tuesday but this time the rain could be heavy in scotland and northern ireland with gales on exposed coasts. it'll take some time for that to clear as it drifts
1:32 pm
southwards but it will do and it will start to move away from the south—east overnight wednesday into thursday. that will allow clear skies and a touch of light frost possibly on thursday morning. but not a bad day, dry with some reasonable sunshine. if you have heard a rumour that things might get warmer into the weekend, in southern england, the reason is because ex—hurricane nate and the extra energy from that will drive this warmerair energy from that will drive this warmer air across the atlantic and it will add more energy across the jet stream and push the areas of low pressure into the north—west across greenland. that means we will see some warmth coming across southern england and temperatures might reach 22 or 23 degrees in parts of england and wales. not for all of us, getting back to the here and now, a great start for many this week with rain and gale ‘s midweek and then the warmth to look forward to in the

south—east in particular at the weekend. thank you. a reminder of our main story this lunchtime... as the latest round of brexit talks begin, the european commission hits back at theresa may, insisting the ball is entirely in the uk's court. that's all from the bbc news at one so it's goodbye from me and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. have a good afternoon. two very different responses to the national anthem. shortly after these photos were taken, mike pence and his party left, missing the game. as the vice president boarded his playing commie he explained his actions. time for a look at the sport. there isa time for a look at the sport. there is a crunch game tonight for wales. chris coleman says his side has nothing to fear ahead of that world cup qualifier at against republic of ireland. garrett while watch them train yesterday, if you will be in
1:34 pm
the stadium for the vital match. they could top their group. there is nothing to fear, nothing to worry about the occasion is what it is, and it's great for us to be involved, we got a game plan, we've a lwa ys involved, we got a game plan, we've always got a game plan. our players have proved that they're very good at executing whatever game plan we put in front of them. no garage sale for wales, and there are injury concerns for the republic of ireland. they have lost shane long toa chip ireland. they have lost shane long to a chip industry, that injury will bea to a chip industry, that injury will be a big blow for the visiting, he says they have to go for it. we need to wind the game, both sides need to wind the game, and at some stage another after 20 or 25 minutes whatever the case maybe they will have to go for it, and it will be
1:35 pm
wide open in the second half. the castleford tigers and england full—back zach hardacre will miss the world cup after he tested positive for cocaine. the 25—year—old was omitted from the squad for the grand final defeat to leeds rhinos on saturday, and it comes ahead of their announcement of the world cup squad. i spoke earlier and she said that zach hardacre has been a frustrating player to manage. he has had a career marred by field indiscretions. this is a test he took in september which we now know tested positive for cocaine. we can't misjudge his mitigating circumstances that he put forward, but it would normally trigger a two—year ban. but it would normally trigger a two-year ban. years in the squad now for obvious reasons, but there is so a surprise exclusion. sam tomkins is not involved in the squad. there are
1:36 pm
a couple of debuts, alex walmsley of st helens, it's an interesting selection. less than three months after suffering a heart attack, the 0lympic after suffering a heart attack, the olympic gold medal winning head coach has returned to full—time work with the england women's squad. the 46—year—old who is in south african with the team at the time, never considered walking away from the sport, but now concedes he will need to adapt his approach to life. sport, but now concedes he will need to adapt his approach to lifelj need to think about waking up in the morning and having a high—quality routine that gets me into the right space rather than just immediate busyness. when i am out cycling i tried to smell the roses a little bit more, try not to just be racing around and thinking about training, but just enjoying around and thinking about training, butjust enjoying the scenery and having a bit of meditation if you
1:37 pm
like through the exercise, rather than just seeing as exercise as a means to an end. the health benefits, just enjoy being in the great outdoors, that is something i will do more of that is all the sports and now, but the england women's squad for their rugby league world cup has also been named today and you can find that and more on the bbc sport website. i will be back more than the next hour. see you soon. the snp leader nicola sturgeon has told the bbc that the timing of a second independence referendum cannot be considered, while there's continuing and growing uncertainty about brexit. speaking from her party's conference, scotland's deputy first minister acknowledged that it's not up to the snp to decide a second vote. she's been speaking to my colleague sarah smith. ican i can only do things and make decisions based on what i think is the best and right thing to do at the best and right thing to do at the time. you try to learn lessons
1:38 pm
from that, you listen to views, and idid from that, you listen to views, and i did thatjarring and after the general election. i have recognised whatever people's views are on independence, the uncertainty on brexit is such that setting a day 110w brexit is such that setting a day now on the referendum is not the right time to doing that. i will not consider the timing again until there is more clarity over brexit. it does not mean ulster making the case for independence, with the chaos engulfing the uk, i think the case that scotland having independence is stronger. when i became the snp leader, the snp had six mps in the house of commons, we have 35 now, we 17 points higher than our nearest rival, polling higher than our previous election winds in 2011. that snp wind was exceptional, but the snp overall is ina very exceptional, but the snp overall is in a very strong position and myjob is to make sure we keep building on that. you say you won't consider the timing of another referendum but the
1:39 pm
treaties is not up to you. the referendum cold for it in march and the prime minister said firmly no. you need the prime minister to do this. this is a bridge we will cross when we have that consideration again depending on what myjudgment is at the time. without being glib about this, the many things we have learnt about theresa may over the last year or so i'm not sure that firm and consistent leadership is not one of them, she changes her mind quite frequently. i have to do what is right for scotland and i will try to do that the best i can in the circumstances we face. what is pressing now is that we try to influence as best we can what will happen with the brexit negotiations. it beggars belief that 15 months on we still have no certainty about our relationship with the eu, and i wa nted relationship with the eu, and i wanted to continue to make the case, that if the uk is leaving the eu,
1:40 pm
which i regret but accept, we should stay in the trade union customs union and! stay in the trade union customs union and i can see the consensus building for that notjust in scotla nd building for that notjust in scotland but across the uk. you have very clear ideas about how you would like to influence the brexit negotiations, you would like a seated table to be part of that. without an independence referendum you have most leveraged over the government. an independence referendum is not a threat, it is an opportunity for people in scotland to choose their own future. when i look at what is happening in the uk right now, the looming disaster that could very well be brexit, that is an illustration of what happens to a country that allows to have decisions taken elsewhere rather than our in own hands. i don't make independence as a threat, i make it as it being betterfor our own country. theresa may is acting with all of the uk is all a part, as she
1:41 pm
claims she is, let's not forget that the brexit vote across the uk was to leave, i accept that. it was a narrow vote, two countries within the uk voted to remain, i think it is incumbent on theresa may to find an outcome on this that represents the interests of many people across the interests of many people across the uk as possible, and fundamentally protects our economic interests which are on the line right now. there is no reason that the prime minister would change your mind abouta the prime minister would change your mind about a second referendum, they went into the general election saying no. there is no reason in the world why she would allow you to go ahead with it. and the snp won 35, we've won more seats on all parties put together. let's keep perspective and put together. let's keep perspective a nd co ntext put together. let's keep perspective and context around position of the parties. i came out of the general election and said quite frankly that i heard that people thought it was a sense that it was premature, i have listened to that, we will not
1:42 pm
consider the timing again until there is more clarity around brexit. i will not get into endless speculation about the lines you want me to, that will be going back on what i said. i will continue making the case in scotland to be independent, and as i say i believe that case becomes more pressing and stronger by the day. people are risking a hefty prison sentence by offering to launder cash for criminals. an undercover investigation for the bbc‘s inside out programme found people offering to use their own bank accounts to help criminals' clean up dirty money, sometimes from the comfort of home. jonathan gibson reports. behind the door of this 0xfordshire house, this woman is offering to launder money in exchange for a cut of the cash. 10%? i think that's doable. tracy's placed an advert online offering help to criminals. so have you been doing the money transfers stuff long, tracy? yeah, for quite a few
1:43 pm
years actually. afterwards we go to her bank so she can show me that she really means business. i've given tracy £100. she thinks it's just a test with lots more money to follow, so she pays it can and draws out clean cash ready to take her commission. then if you take your ten, i'll take the 90. tracy says she is willing to process thousands of pounds every week. and she's not alone. this man, tony, is offering to help me steal money from the company i said i work for, using his credit card machine. the most i've done is a40,000. right. but he wants a much bigger cut, 50% of the proceeds. to be honest, as long as i'm talking to you and that money on there is ok, it's not drug money,
1:44 pm
you know what i'm trying to say. i'm not interested in that because everybody is going to get locked up. the maximum penalty for money—laundering is 1a years in prison. i can't think of a crime that isn't fuelled by money—laundering at one point out another. there are thefts, there is fraud, there is online crime, cybercrime, everything requires money—laundering in order to move it forward. so what's their response? you are actually talking to a bbc journalist. right, 0k. i'm concerned about the transactions you've just described to me, and the amount of money you've already processed. have you got anything to say? no, just that if the works not there i can't do it. tony later claimed that he'd been lying about helping me to take company cash, and was just carrying out research into criminal activity. when we contacted tracy, she claimed she'd been lying as well, and was working for the police as an undercover agent. when we asked for proof she went silent. and you can see that investigation in full on tonight's inside out programme, that's at 7:30pm on bbc one in some english regions.
1:45 pm
it'll also be available on the bbc iplayer. in a moment a summary of the business news this hour but first, the headlines on bbc news: as the latest brexit talks begin, the european commission hits back at theresa may, insisting the ball is entirely in the uk's court, the prime minister will update mps this afternoon. the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse begins hearings in rochdale, including claims over the town's former mp, cyril smith. after huge demonstration for spanish unity there's growing speculation that the leader of catalonia may stop short of calling a unilateral declaration of independence. the business news,. the royal mail is to seek an injunction to try to stop
1:46 pm
a planned 48 hour strike by postal workers, the company has said. the british defence company bae is expected to announce it is cutting more than 1000 jobs this week. it is expected to affect jobs more than 1000 jobs this week. it is expected to affectjobs in warton. and the office for national statistics has had to correct an unit on unit labour costs. that's a vital piece of data which tells the bank of england how much it costs employers in the uk to produce a certain amount of output. on friday they said annual labour costs were up 1.6% — today they're saying it's actually up 2.4% — that is likely to have an impact on inflation figures and strengthen the argument for an interest rate rise. it's really about how the uk can

decarbonise our economy. it should bea decarbonise our economy. it should be a no—brainer and sometimes businesses think —— covenanting businesses think —— covenanting businesses can do this themselves. —— government. in germany and japan they support manufacturers to find innovations and new ways of doing that and we need to do the same here. how can the uk chain are enough new engineers how can the uk train enough new engineers to work on the country's major infrastructure projects? by opening a new college dedicated to exactly that. the national college for high speed rail is designed to address the skills shortages faced notjust by hs2 but also the wider rail industry. steph mcgovern has been finding out more. this doesn't look like your average
1:49 pm
college. there is a train track right there. these are some of the stu d e nts right there. these are some of the students and teachers who will be helping to make sure that all the jobs we need to build high—speed rail will be filled up. the bright young people will be here this morning. claire is the chief executive of the college. let's go ona tourand executive of the college. let's go on a tour and tell me about what you've got. what you've got in front of you is a virtual reality classroom. the front end of the power car has been converted into a drive a cab where we have virtual reality activities going on in there. that is actually a virtual reality classroom. underneath the train we have the inspection pit so you can expect what's going on with the train. in the rest of the workshop you have examples of new technology that is coming into the rail industry to demonstrate how this is playing a key feature in engineering. this station in front of this is where all the power

equipment is, this is about setting up equipment is, this is about setting up power lines, how the tension and how you repair them. then we have different exa m ples of how you repair them. then we have different examples of augmented and virtual reality taking of less tang can see? screen a so ff is on ts" 7 777 ~— , . and move it along. it is fascinating. let's look at the
