together again across the far north of scotland. the tail end in the front north, taking time to pull away into the north sea. the wind a feature of the day. but the temperatures not as low as they are going to get, in the days to come. double figures across the south. that really is the last of the mild air because once the weather fronts have moved across the channel off into the near continent. that then opens the gate to a supply of cold air streaming down these isobars from well north of the british isles, so that is what is going to change our weather from the relatively mild airs of late sunday and monday, into something a good deal colder, as we get on into tuesday, wednesday and deed on into thursday. notice the supply of showers across northern and eastern parts of the british isles and off the irish sea, just through pembrokeshire into parts of the south—west, again some showers, even here turning wintry across higher ground. the wind really becoming a feature across eastern parts as we get on through the day. and, where we've got higher ground in the east, north york moors for example, lying snow and temperatures never better than about 7 and feeling much lower given the strength of the wind. to briefly milder, then it
10:31 pm
turns cold and watch out for that biting wind. hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment — first the headlines at 10.30. international trade secretary, liam fox, has said the future of the irish border cannot be resolved until the united kingdom and the eu have reached a trade agreement. two of the five people killed when a stolen car hit a tree in leeds have been named on social media as brothers ellis and elliot thornton. police are holding two teenage boys in custody. the husband ofjailed british woman nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe has accused iranian media of prejudicing his wife's case — after iranian state tv claimed she was working to train journalists. smoke and ash from a volcano on the island of bali have prompted the indonesian authorities to issue a red alert to airlines.
10:32 pm
there are fears mount agung could erupt for the first time since 1963. on the meetp author my guest is nicola upson with her thriller nine lessons. it is set in 1930s' cambridge and linked to the ghost stories of mr james. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. they have no better offers, so here they are. the political commentator, jane merrick,
10:33 pm
and the deputy head of sport at the sun, martin lipton. tomorrow's front pages, starting with the i picks up on a story about a the irish border which, the paper claims, could derail brexit plans. also on brexit, the financial times reports on two large pharmaceutical investments into the uk, providing a boost to theresa may's vision for post—brexit britain. the metro reports on the story of a stolen car killing five people, including two schoolboys. the telegraph claims that a security review will recommend prioritising investment in cyber security, rather than the traditional armed forces. the times runs with an investigation into children that are being used by criminal gangs as drugs runners. the guardian leads with a report that patients‘ lives are being put at risk as inexperienced doctors are being left to run a&e units. the mirror reports on claims that russian cyber units are spreading false information about flu jabs in the uk. and the express claims that britain should brace for a month of icy weather in the run—up to christmas.
10:34 pm
so let's begin. something not on the list but on the front of the ft. a saudi prince pledges to root out islamic islamism in the world. everybody would love the world to be rid of islamic terrorism. he wants saudi arabia to be a much more moderate state. he's also being quite assertive in the region. this is obviously quite disconcerting if you are thinking about peace in the region, and obviously it is a threat to iran. but he is saying that we need to rid the world of islamist terrorism but obviously it doesn't bode well for the stability between iran and all their states nearby. talking about a pretty big military alliance. yes, here we are the
10:35 pm
sunni—shia split was has been in islam for hundreds of years, once again ruing its head. saudi arabia isa again ruing its head. saudi arabia is a sunni state and it is the sunni states which include iraq, syria lobe yob and yemen as a bloc here to the root out islamic terrorism which happens to be pointed at iran and ka too, the founding places of this. and there have been very good reasons for that to be stated but i think it reinforces this schism within the islamic world, particularly the powerful states within that part of the middle east and it'll be interesting to see what happens. clearly there has been this change within saudi arabia in the la st change within saudi arabia in the last month or two in which there's beena very last month or two in which there's been a very aggressive anti—corruption or nominal, at least, anti—corruption effort being put in by the royal family there. we'll come back to the ft in a minute. look at the i. a rift with
10:36 pm
you do lynne puts the brexit deal in danger. the eu 27 saying — we have to sort the border out first and liam fox now saying — martin, no, we'll sort the trade deal out first and worry about the border. the the problem is everyone is arguing their particular corners and no—one is appearing tojoin up the argument. so you have the issue about the hard border between the republic of #50ir8d and northern ireland, when we fall out of the eu, and the various... it could be an ordinarily departure if we get our skates on. we are talking about hard brexit and the we are going to do it, it is not going to be that orderly. it is going to be that orderly. it is going to be that orderly. it is going to happen, some what may. the issues are so vast, you do wonder how we ended up with a deadline which is making everything more of concern. which is making everything more of concern. if we are going to leave
10:37 pm
the eu, the decision of the 52% that voted, maybe we should have been more sensible about how we got to that he end game. the issue for ireland, the dup are keeping government in government and whilst the dup were a very pro—brexit party, they also can't afford to see the economy of northern ireland undermined totally. therein lies the danger. this is really serious for theresa may. actually she must be winds again wondering why she held an election, if she hadn't and lost her majority she wouldn't have the dup in this game and it would be much more simple but obviously ireland are upping the ante because they have their own possible general election looming. are we seriously looking at stability in ireland, with the uk, in danger because of brexit? that's what is at stake here. there's no way that the deadline is going to be met by mid—december for this to be sorted out. back to the ft. big pharmaceutical groups to provide
10:38 pm
a boost for may's post—brexit vision. yes, she needs something more positive. what is interesting, in the budget last week, philip hammond was talking about post—brexit uk and what the uk can get from where its progress can be. he was talking about driverless cards and technology and it seems like science and technology is their kind of answer as to how britain moves forward outside the etch uchl. so this is good news if you hoped for this post—brexit vision pharmaceutical companies will invest £1 billion, which could bring 17,500 high streetjobs, which is really, you can be really positive about this, because this is where britain does do well in science and things like that. but a lot of scientists we re like that. but a lot of scientists were saying that we've got to have
10:39 pm
this cross eu community network, free movement of travel, movement of personnel, because a lot of research is not done injust personnel, because a lot of research is not done in just one country. no, a lot of research is over a number of countries, they come together. there's also — you know people from all over europe who come to work, who are scientists come to work in the uk, and if they're feeling uncomfortable they may want to go back to wherever they originate from. we've got to find a way of changing the economy. quite clearly. we've go the to find new fields and new areas and if science is the way forward , new areas and if science is the way forward, then let's embrace this. i'm a bit worried about driverless cars, the idea of a future without jeremy clarkson is probably good news, though. ithink jeremy clarkson is probably good news, though. i think we've got to try to explore everything. it's interesting that clearly hammond was talking down this path last week in the budget and while one would say £1 billion is not a huge amount of
10:40 pm
money, given we have agreed to £3 billion to help us out brexit—wise and 1700 jobs is not a lot don't forget we are using the european medicines agency. i'm trying to be positive but we've lost that. telegraph, reasons why christians back trump? this is the archbishop of canterbury? we hadn't spotted this before? all we have here is a paragraph on front. trump has a huge - 85% of paragraph on front. trump has a huge — 85% of the evangelical christian vote in the us. it's a huge part of his — despite all the issue, which you might thought would be counter—productive you might thought would be counter— productive towards their support. it is particularly attitudes towards women that this attitudes towards women that this attitude picks out, because they are com pletely u na cce pta ble attitude picks out, because they are completely unacceptable in christian... . it's good to hear the archbishop say this and he is on the more progressive side of the church of england but he talks about, yeah,
10:41 pm
he has talked that they are com pletely he has talked that they are completely unacceptable. this is interesting, because there is a state dinner on the cards but not a fixed date. it is a dinner at which he will have to meet the us president. so, it is interesting how he is laying down a america, possibly and the president will probably respond in his usual way in a... in a tweet. the times — thousands of children groomed as drug mules. this is a times' investigation. this is taking place here, on an enormous scale according to this article. this is really the most appalling story, a really the most appalling story, a really important investigation that the times has done. i didn't know anything about this before, but it's this thing called — county lines, where children are groomed to take drugs between, around the country. they are talking about coastal towns. the investigation is talking about thousands of children being used as drug runners and they are using very similar techniques,
10:42 pm
grooming techniques to those in the rotherham and rochdale scandals. we are talking about children as young as 12, in care, so obviously more vulnerable and it really is an appalling story but it's very good that it's having a light shone on it. yet another dimension to child exploitation. absolutely. it is interesting here that the line in the second half of the story on front page of the times talks about the prosecution, the police changing their tactics and charging the people behind this with human trafficking, under modern slavery legislation, which has much more significant penalties. it's a very, very worrying — actually quite chilling story to read and incredibly concerning. i think of all the front pages we have seen thus far, it's by far in a away the most important story by a very long way. i mean, you don't want to believe it is as big as this. but if
10:43 pm
it is, it is horrendous and chilling and, you know, as ath fare of young kids, it's a pretty scary prospect, i have to say. and also questions for the care system once again. again. that this is being allowed to happen and the most vulnerable children in our society are being exploited in this way. and it veils like across a huge part of the country. a a network. we need to... not one particular city or town. we need to know a lot more. this will be, i'm sure the start of this story because i can't believe it is a one—off hit. this is going to run and run and run. there are real issues that have to be addressed and uncovered and we need to know exactly what this is all about, but it is, as soon as we sawt exactly what this is all about, but it is, as soon as we saw t the pair of us thought — we were shocked almost... it seems to have come out of nowhere. the telegraph again — armed forces lose out to cyber war. when you've got limited funds you've got to make some difficult decision. an interesting scenario. a new
10:44 pm
defence secretary in gary williamson. his first major issue is an absolute war, it appears with philip hammond over the funding for the armed forces. the suggestion here is that the national security advisor has said it is more important to increase the funding to fight cyber attacks than to bolster the conventional armed forces. there isa£2 the conventional armed forces. there is a £2 billion short fallt the conventional armed forces. there is a £2 billion short fall t would appear in terms of what the mod thought it needed and what it is going to get and it is not going to get that money because owe parts of our security services feel they have a bigger fight to fight over radicalisation, isis and also, who knows potentially what the russian threat actually is but there is a concern of criminal involvement in all sorts of evidence there. will this money, though be regarded by nato of the 2% of spending that we're supposed to give to defence
10:45 pm
that's separate, isn't it? i think what they are saying is that they need this to fund a short fall and actually this is interesting because it is sort of a new twist on an old story that the mod have been underfund ford years, say the defence and says the minister involved has always complained of going back decades of saying there isn't enough money. but we do need money for cyber terrorism, though. the threat is huge.
