it says the palestinian president has warned trump via a phone call that the move would have "dangerous consequences" to peace and stability in the region and the world. in the moscow times, of course, all the reaction from russian athletes after the ioc banned russia from the winter olympics. some say they're not shocked by the decision but are still deciding whether to compete under a neutral flag. on the front page of the guardian, theresa may facing mounting pressure to secure a breakthrough as brexit—supporting tories say the time has come to walk away from the negotiations. in thejapan times, it talks about the un political chief during the visit to north korea for rare talks

following last week's long—range missile launch. and lastly from the wall streetjournal. it's latest blog has many talking online. the publication says it'll refrain from categorising people born from 1980 to 2000 as "millenials" — it describes the term as "snide shorthand" and "snotty". so let's begin. with me is doctor stephanie hare, who is the principal director at accenture research. let's start on the story that is in all the front pages here in the uk. but this is so there we need to be careful with because this will be read later in court today. yes, and this is obviously to be taken in the context of the many other terror plots that we have had, some successful in london and manchester this year, and others foiled by security services. so a case of how serious and escalation this can be. absolutely. it is an alleged plot.

0bviously, absolutely. it is an alleged plot. obviously, more will be clarified later in terms of what the detail is. but it is something which is dominating the headlines for good reason in the uk here today. but let's look at our top story here today and how the media is digesting this in the middle east. we have both the jerusalem this in the middle east. we have both thejerusalem post this in the middle east. we have both the jerusalem post and this in the middle east. we have both thejerusalem post and the palestine chronicle. we start with the jerusalem post. palestine chronicle. we start with thejerusalem post. they are focusing on what the mayor of jerusalem has to say about this. he says that the us embassy moved a bit around two minutes. this is notjust the case of moving a pluck and raising a flag, this will require massive security precautions, redesign, the whole nine yards. this

isa redesign, the whole nine yards. this is a symbolic move for them. highly, i would imagine, is a symbolic move for them. highly, iwould imagine, important, in terms of usb their most important ally, and one of the key players in the middle east peace process. but as the article says, it will actually be more like six months for the move of the embassy. i imagined the timing is, the white house wants to see what the initial reaction is going to be to their announcement, assuming they make it, today. yes, and no country on earth has its embassy in jerusalem. it and no country on earth has its embassy injerusalem. it is a significant announcement. that is if it is made today. secondly, that waiver that he would sign again today for six months, the change, the pivot, here, is that every us president has signed that waiver since 1995. and that is to keep printing this further down the road as part of the peace negotiations. the reason that donald trump would be signing it is different. that would be to avoid incurring penalties to the budget for the us

state department. so this is significant shift, if it happens, which we would expect to date at around onepm easter died in the united states. —— eastern time. around onepm easter died in the united states. -- eastern time. and palestine is warning of the dangerous consequences. 0bviously, there is a lot of opinion out there as to what the reaction might be like. you know, everybody from that side of the argument, whether it be leaders from saudi arabia, jordan, oi’ leaders from saudi arabia, jordan, or palestine, seem to be on the same page in terms of what this means. exactly. we've heard from the president of france, the european union, turkey, saudi arabia, so really different partners for the united states all aligned on this issue,in united states all aligned on this issue, in that they think it is a risky move that could inflame tensions. interesting from the point of view of donald trump's relationship with saudi arabia,

which has been very warm and there have been big deal is done between the us and saudi arabia in terms of business deals. this kind of is not what the saudi arabia leadership wa nts what the saudi arabia leadership wants from this president that they have kind of been wooing, and away. to make indeed. saudi arabia has been moving closer to israel, and this could convert at that. it will play out in days to come, because thatis play out in days to come, because that is probably the most diplomatic thing i can say. there is a risk of violence that cannot be underestimated. hooking at the moscow times, various bits of reaction to the ioc‘s decision to not allow the russian team to compete in next year's winter 0lympics. compete in next year's winter olympics. yes, this has to do with allegations of state—sponsored doping from the 2014 olympics. we have seen russian athletes should do their medals. now what will happen is that we'll have this ban, and some russian athletes, if they can,

can compete in the olympics, but under a neutralflag. can compete in the olympics, but under a neutral flag. will they or won't they? that is the question. under a neutral flag. will they or won't they? that is the questionm so many olympics before, we have seen people become tools. so the question is if they would even be to ta ke question is if they would even be to take a stand, and that if they would wa nt take a stand, and that if they would want to. in the guardian, this talks about senior cabinet members who are voicing their real unease about what has been going on in the past few days, and the deals that she has been doing with the democrat unionist party. >> exactly. this needs to be done in the wider context of these negotiations. i am not sure we want to get too involved in the specifics of the negotiations, yet, because this could all change this week. what we are looking at is regulatory consistency across different parts of the united kingdom. if northern

ireland gets one deal, is that fair for scotland, wales, england... that is the real issue. the business, that level of continuity, and what are these regulations, that matters. because you could have unfair competition across the united kingdom. i will skip over the japan times now, it is i am interested in this blog for the wall street journal, where it says that they will light use the term millennialss. —— millennials.” will light use the term millennialss. -- millennials. iam will light use the term millennialss. -- millennials. i am a fan of this. i'd like the word. millennials get out lot of flak and they inherited a pretty tough economy from those that came before them. i think it insisted it would everybody into a box, as it were, and yet, of course, you cannot summarise because you were born between 1989 and 2000, you cannot surprise that with one word. many on our programme have cyber cavities,

and quite inspirational. your person of the year or idea or concept of 2017, if you have on? i do. i think this is the women and the journalist who have spoken up about sexual harassment on both sides of the atla ntic harassment on both sides of the atlantic and around the world. i think it is so brave of those women to talk, and i think it is so wonderful that the journalists to bear story seriously and investigator with rigour and frantic accuracy. so to europe, it would be #metoo? #metoo. it is about respect, now. “— #metoo? #metoo. it is about respect, now. —— so to you, it would be. thank you for adjoining us this morning and so your contribution to the programme. i hope that you enjoy that. i will see you very soon. —— thank you forjoining us. hello. this is the point where this week's weather begins to get considerably more dramatic.

and this is the driver of the change, this curl of cloud on the satellite picture, a deep area of low pressure which has been named by the met office, storm caroline. nothing will happen much on wednesday morning. feeding in a lot of cloud and some mild air. temperatures as we start the day, eight, nine, ten across the south—west. expect cloud. the odd patchy rain and drizzle that the 11 degrees for plymouth. cardiff, similar. across west wales, starting to turn quite breezy by this stage. the wind picking up in northern ireland and this area of wet weather will slide in from the west. rain settling in across western scotland. persistent rain in the high ground. eastern scotland, starting the day dry. and it will be eastern areas that will have the best chance of any brightness through the day. further west, a lot of cloud and strengthening south—westerly winds. gales in exposed spots in the west in the afternoon.

northern ireland and western scotland in particular, outbreaks of rain. a mild day wherever you are. that will not last. wednesday night, the wind is strengthening in the west. outbreaks of rain pushing in from the west as well, as storm caroline swings across the north of the british isles. notice many isobars tight together. strong winds with us for thursday. across scotland, winds of 80 miles per hour, perhaps even stronger. very strong winds elsewhere as well. rain clearing away from the south—east. then brighter skies. and then some showers, which will begin to turn wintry over high ground in the north. that's because things will be turning colder. as we move out of thursday into friday, this is a really wintry looking weather chart. the winds are whistling down from the arctic bringing cold air which will plunge right across the country. there will be some dry weather and sunshine at times. there will also be showers.

most of the showers will be snow showers. they could crop up just about anywhere. most likely in the west, but also in the far north. and that snow will be right down to low levels. when you add on the strength of the wind, it will feel sub—zero across many parts of the country. so, wet and windy weather with storm caroline. then turning colder. and then we will see some snow showers and some ice. hello. good morning. this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. two men are due in court accused of a plot to kill the prime minister. the alleged plan was to target theresa may while she was at downing street, bombing the security gates before launching a knife attack in the confusion that would follow. good morning.

it's wednesday the sixth of december. also this morning: president trump breaks with decades of american policy on israel. the white house says he will formally recognisejerusalem as its capital, and will move the us embassy there from tel aviv.
