and e‘fir "nwrwru and although she is in remarkable, and although she is in charge of the government, she hasn't said, do what i say, i have a plan. she has that they're mostly saying, 0k she has that they're mostly saying, ok then, do what you like. that is because, martin, that authority number ten had also been briefing, that had come back perhaps in full force, after the brexit deal, moving on to phase two, brexit backbenchers quiet now, feeling things would be improving from now on, that authority still isn't there, is it? this was supposed to be this renewed sense of command and you end up going back to the 19s in office but not in power, with no understanding. when you have chaos —— going back to the mid—90s. these titles, and these are the support of newspapers! six months after winning an election it is bad enough that you have to reshuffle a team that is your programme for government, but if you then can't even do that competently,

it begs questions unfortunately, and a lot of supportive newspapers are turning this on to the person who is responsible. she can't blame nick timothy this time, she can't blame any other advisers. how can you spend the weekend briefing about a reshuffle then failed to carry it out? it is quite remarkable. but there have been significant changes. it is quite remarkable. but there have been significant changesm terms of titles! the name of the department. yes, jeremy hunt with an extra bit on his portfolio, but he was already the secretary of state for social care anyway. but the daily telegraph, night of the blunder stiletto, alluding to what i was saying at the beginning. jenni, your point. the papers which on the whole have really backed theresa may on what they are sceptical tonight. the sun, the telegraph, pretty much cheerleaders, and they are saying

this is feeble, the reshuffle has fallen flat, she has been derailed, andi fallen flat, she has been derailed, and i think your point that some of these appointments make sense is all a different point, because despite herself has ended up withjeremy hunt not only staying in health but saying he wants to take social care into that brief. that makes a lot of sense, but it was his idea, not hers. he said, no, ido sense, but it was his idea, not hers. he said, no, i do not want to 90, hers. he said, no, i do not want to go, and run a kind of beef. prepare for a brexit department, which is how she saw his move the business. so saying no, i ain't leaving and i wa nt so saying no, i ain't leaving and i want a bigger... let's not be quite that cynical. he is saying i want to make this work, because the gap between social care and the nhs is clogging it up, so we should be grateful for that but it is not due to her. martin, what is the sun's view on this? i think we have been somewhat critical of how it has

gone. there to see it has not been a great day for the government. i think it is feared she that sajid javid's remit has been expanded to include housing, that is a really important thing we believe, as a paper, for the country and our readers as well and that is the biggest positive, from an otherwise rather unimpressive day. the chaos just seems to unravel... this briefing, this tweet by central office, about chris grayling getting the chairmanship of the party, and then he lost hisjob and 27 seconds, by the sound of things. whether that was a mess up by the sound of things. whether that was a mess up is irrelevant. we are going back to where we were in october, when that speech started to fall apart, aren't we? yes, exactly like the moment when she was giving the speaker conference and the letters were falling off the platform behind. you make the point that all of the right—leaning papers are not particularly impressed with what happened today, and the front of the times, greening quits in

shambolic reshuffle, rejecting prime minister's job shambolic reshuffle, rejecting prime minister'sjob offer. her shambolic reshuffle, rejecting prime minister's job offer. her position was untenable, justine greening, when she made it clear she would not back an extension of grammar schools, that she had to go. yes, finding her too much of cameronite. as an public schoolgirl, she riled a lot with but still she is a girl educated in a northern comprehensive and fora educated in a northern comprehensive and for a reshuffle billed as "we will make this cabinet more like the country," will make this cabinet more like the country, " and off will make this cabinet more like the country," and off a lot of white men still sitting there tonight. there was some change in terms of the tory central office, with james cleverly and so on, but they are not front of house. they are not in power. so it is all well and good talking it up, but you then have to deliver. and it has been no delivery. all right, ok. sorry, go on. and it has been no delivery. all right, 0k. sorry, go on. someone

from the cameron government said tonight, has the reverse midas touch, whatever she touches, whether it was the election to give her a majority, the conference to relaunch her, or the reshuffle, majority, the conference to relaunch her, orthe reshuffle, itjust majority, the conference to relaunch her, or the reshuffle, itjust goes wrong. i have to see if you can't handle her cabinet ministers how will she handled the brexit negotiations with 27 obdurate european countries? this really doesn't bode well. the reverse midas touchis doesn't bode well. the reverse midas touch is in fact not having the midas touch. exactly. all right, let's move on to the financial times. appoints pro—european as for fixer in cabinet. this would seem to bea fixer in cabinet. this would seem to be a plus side, some would argue? i'm not sure whether the brexiteers would argue that, actually. lidington is a former europe minister, but he was a very strong remainerand he minister, but he was a very strong remainer and he effectively replaces a strong remainer in damian green, however there was a lot of talk about it being someone like dominic

raab, who has not appeared at all in today's move, so he will be moved one actions in the second phase of this reshuffle, sol one actions in the second phase of this reshuffle, so i think there will be criticism again from the brexit wing of the party. but to be fairi brexit wing of the party. but to be fair i think if she is trying to keep a remain—leave balance, as yea rs, keep a remain—leave balance, as years, she was replacing top! damian green, so it is about not shifting the balance in the cabinet. she was replacing damian green. yes, but it is the lack of change. i don't know too much about lidington in terms of how strong a boy she will be. he is going to be there, standing with her at prime minister's questions, we are told, but he will not be the deputy first minister of state in that position will not be felt. shuai converted the bit dangerous to give anyone that rule in case they embarrassed to begin —— she may have thought it a bit dangerous. who knows the thinking. moving on, the

financial times, human rights probe, jennl financial times, human rights probe, jenni, in relation to carrie gracie's resignation. yes, the story running all day on the bbc, you're on china editor has found that she is being paid much less than the male international editors, and she said she doesn't want this to be about wanting more pay, butjust about wanting more pay, butjust about equality. and estimate the human rights commission is saying it wa nts human rights commission is saying it wants clarification from the bbc to make sure they are doing their legal duty and making sure women are being treated equally, so the bbc is not going to get away with the kind of fudge with which it has pushing its women away with. the bbc would say it has had an independent audit and there is no systemic problem there, but there you go. we have been discussing an all—day, yes, indeed. yes, but it was discovered that was not true. martin, male fertility, front page of the telegraph. write a worrying story and a very

interesting story. —— this is quite a worrying story. if you take the study from a danish university in copenhagen, from as little as two weeks, men between... young men in their 20s will have a large decline in their fertility to quite a strong degree, which is obviously very concerning because people do take painkillers fairly regularly. there always is the danger you keep taking them, isn't there a? but there is a serious danger here. men who took 600 mg every day, three pills, found that a condition called compensated hypogonadism, which sounds like something out of a magazine, but there you go. testosterone levels fall to our level which may impact fertility. this is a scientific study from denmark and it will concern people, unquestionably. lot of people who work out find themselves taking agu provine for

muscle pain and three tablets per day is not very much, yet it says that 20% drop in testosterone, reduced muscle mass, less strength, reduced muscle mass, less strength, reduced libido —— find themselves taking ib —— ibuprofen for muscle pain. front page of the guardian, oprah for president. a year ago i would have said, i'm sorry, no experience, that would be a joke. donald trump has gotten. no public office history. no public service history either. why not oprah winfrey? well, probably for two reasons, firstly she is black, and secondly she is female. that has been done, but the female side, absolutely. you think that would be lethal? a lot of people think racism was the reaction... the reaction against obama was a big reason why

trump got elected, and i think given the field open to americans, oprah would be a super president. she has charisma, drive, intellect, heart, intelligence, good at managing people, a fine functioning brain, unlike... she is good on the telly. yes, she would know how to do the speeches, can motivate people. we discovered the last of days that trump's basically acting like a toddler in the white house and has declining mentalfunctions toddler in the white house and has declining mental functions so oprah would look like an intellectual management and political giant compared to the current president, so compared to the current president, soi compared to the current president, so i think we can on the hop. well, martin, very briefly? —— we can only hope. the american system has become increasingly bizarre, a real—life version of the apprentice, hasn't it? oprah winfrey has no of the apprentice, hasn't it? oprah winfrey has no obvious qualifications but that no longer seems to matter. except potentially more experience of activism than donald trump ever had? and she has a big social

conscience. 0k, we will leave it there. it has been good to have un. looking at some of the stories behind the headlines, martin and jennl behind the headlines, martin and jenni, thank you for that. and don't forget you can see all the stories online on the bbc news website seven days a week, and you missed the programme any evening, it is an iplayer. thanks again, jenni and martin. and thank you for watching. goodbye —— it is on iplayer. good evening. we will see the grey side of january tomorrow. today that was merely across southern parts of the uk. you see the satellite image from earlier today, this sheet of cloud creeping northwards. the northern half of the uk has clear skies and you can see the snow there in the scottish mountains but it is here where we started the night with a bit of rospa as that cloud continues to creak northwards by the end of the night the frost is limited to the south west

highlands of scotland, cumbria and the north—west of wales. temperatures below freezing and maybe as low as —6, —7 in the scottish highlands. above freezing elsewhere, the odd spot of rain and drizzle into a rather dismal start to the tuesday morning rush—hour. could be foggy over some of the hills, and a struggle to brighten up as well. perhaps a few hints of sunshine. thanks to the presence of mountains across the highlands the cloud is not getting over them. so some sunshine still there, and perhaps across cumbria and gwyneth and anglesey. with the sunshine you could see temperatures of penn, media live in, degrees in one or two spots. —— temperatures of ten or ii degrees. the odd spot of rain and drizzle. temperatures left to the channel islands later but some heavy rain by the end of the afternoon, spreading into the evening rush—hour, and that rain spreading its weight erratically north and eastwards through the night and into

wednesday morning. into wednesday morning, clear skies, meaning wednesday morning. into wednesday morning, clearskies, meaning frost, the risk of ice after overnight rain and a few lingering fog patches but once they are gone sunny spells the day. outbreaks of could linger across your into shetland, pretty damp up there in the afternoon, anywhere between the humber and up towards county durham and teesside, but as you can see light winds, it will feel quite pleasant out there. wednesday night, an area of low pressure spreading the show is close to the south—western channel islands, leaving this slack area of high—pressure weather is not much in the way of wind, so the big weather hazard for the end of the week, the return of widespread overnight frost and some lingering fog. thursday, brightening in many areas especially in central and western parts. still a bit grey and a bit cool in the east.

this is bbc news. i'm clive myrie. the headlines at "pm: the education secretaryjustine greening has left the government, amid the biggest reshuffle since theresa may became prime minister. she's turned down a job at the department for work and pensions. formerjunior minister in that department, esther mcvey, walks into thatjob instead. also tonight: a couple who met on a muslim dating site have been found guilty of planning a terror attack in the uk. the bbc‘s china editor carrie gracie has quit her role in a dispute about equal pay, accusing the corporation of breaking the law. life is a daily struggle for education. and on newsnight, after a

well—received speech at the golden globes, america is abuzz with
