of scot -- across northern parts of scot —— across northern parts. the belt of weather taking a time to get way from the far south—east. probably lunchtime early afternoon. following on behind, somewhat brighter skies, a chance of sunshine but you get a sense there are plenty of showers to go around. given that temperature profile across north and west of scotland, northern ireland, too, across the high ground particularly, the snow amounts will begin to rack up and that continues apace on through the night from monday on into tuesday. tuesday another blustery day and by that stage we will all be experiencing that much colder feel to the weather, as the cold air slumps down and across all parts of the british isles. throughout the day the heaviest of the showers across northern and western areas and by this stage, because the air will be so this stage, because the air will be so much colder across many parts, even away down towards the hills of wales, maybe the moors of the south—west, we could well be seeing something a wee bit wintry. elsewhere it really will feel that cold given the strength of the wind which will be ever—weren't through the middle part of the week and then

an eye on this. some uncertainty where it is heading but on the northern flank of the system, overnight for wednesday into thursday, there could well be a period of snow. hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines. the government considers a judicial review into the decision to release serial sex attackerjohn worboys. every victim out there, every friend and family of victims, and everybody who has read about this case will want to know that we are doing everything we can to make sure that the victims are properly protected. police searching for a man in connection with a suspected crossbow attack, which left one man dead and a pregnant woman injured, discover a body in a vehicle. the future of the engineering giant carillion remains in doubt. ministers are due to resume crisis talks tomorrow to save it from collapse. the leading fashion photographer mario testino has been suspended from working for vogue, following allegations of sexual harassment. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are martin bentham, home affairs editor at the london evening standard, and owen bennett, deputy political editor at huffpost uk. welcome to you both. and this, all being well technologically, is the last time the papers will look like this. it's all going to be different tomorrow, fingers crossed. the front pages for tonight. the metro leads on the future of ukip's leader, henry bolton, after his girlfriend was suspended from the party for sending apparently racist text messages about meghan markle the ft reports on the trouble—hit contractor carillion. it asks why it was awarded £2 billion in government contracts, despite issuing a profits warning last year. the times also has that story. it

also pictures a claim which skidded offa also pictures a claim which skidded off a runway in turkey. the express has research claiming that adding more fibre to your diet can help fight rheumatoid arthritis. the i has a special report about arms deals to countries such as saudi arabia following the brexit vote. the sun reports on the marriage difficulties of tv star anthony mcpartlin. the mirror also leads on that story. he is to divorce his wife of ii yea rs. the telegraph claims medical records of british cancer victims have been passed to a us firm working for one of the world's biggest tobacco companies. let's start with the ukip story, it's on the front of the metro. your racist lover or yourjob. a warning to the ukip leader, henry bolton. remind us of the story. many people might have forgotten, and you might understand why, but henry bolton was

elected ukip leader last autumn, and since then it's emerged he's left his wife for a younger party activist. some text messages have emerged, in which she made some racist and disparaging comments about meghan markle. ukip know how to turn these things into even more ofa drama to turn these things into even more of a drama than a crisis, and now they say he has to choose between his girlfriend of hisjob, the comments of the party chairman today. we understand other papers are printing other messages, referring to other things equally despicable, to be honest. ukip, they area despicable, to be honest. ukip, they are a party without a purpose, and seemingly a party without a leader again, it seems. they seem to have trouble getting the right leader in post for any length of time.” suppose, when he was elected, he might have seemed a decent choice, an ex—army person and so might have seemed a decent choice, an ex—army person and so on, might have seemed a decent choice, an ex—army person and so on, and he might have seemed a safe pair of hands at that time, and it's all gone horribly wrong with his romance and now these revelations about

these rather distasteful comments that his new girlfriend has been making. although clearly one person should not necessarily be liable for the actions of their partner and so on, on the other hand, i think in this case, it's a bit too close to home, isn't it? he becomes identified with it himself, and i don't think he can be identified with the sort of things she is saying. the headline here, your racist lover or yourjob, is probably an accurate summation. it's the association, isn't it? you mentioned the purpose of ukip, with nigel farage suggesting there might need to be a second referendum just to make sure we leave the eu, once we know a deal, that purpose, isn't it? whenever farage made that claim, ukip distanced themselves from it. of course, farage is still the face of the party. i don't think there is going to be a second referendum and i don't think was going to call it

would the tories labour wouldn't call it. and farage then distanced himself from it. he is very good at getting himself off the front page. this just shows really, getting himself off the front page. thisjust shows really, and i'm surprised it's even on the front page now, toonie owes to henry bolton is really? —— who knows who the real is. financial times bolton is really? —— who knows who the real is. financialtimes and times covering the story about carillion, the engineering giant with £900 million worth of debt from various banks. they were in trouble and issued a profits warning last year, but still awarded this government contract. the issue here is it's a massive company that, until recently, most people had never heard of, they are running all sorts of public sector maintenance and construction contracts across a huge range of areas, and they have a massive debt pile. the question in

today's story in the ft and the times is the allegation that the government awarded them, they had issued profit warnings last year and the government kept awarding them contracts, and the criticism is that they shouldn't have been doing so, and there are rules that suggest they shouldn't have done it, and that therefore they were throwing taxpayers money, and money after bad. on the other hand, there was a line in the ft from somebody from the government, suggesting that the problem would have been, if they haven't put that money in at the time, the company would have to the wall immediately. it still potentially will go to the wall, but it's lived longer and there might be of risking it. so many subcontractors to the companies, which do the look of the hotbot carillion, will be watching closely to see if they have a future. ——

which do the work of carillion.m could be that other companies come in and cherry pick and it's all divvied up by administration. in and cherry pick and it's all diwied up by administration. lord adonis was criticising the decision to offer hand—outs to those running the east coast main line, and saying, if this is privatisation, they have to stand fall on their merits. the government, a conservative government particularly, if it believes in the free market, it shouldn't be handing out taxpayers money to prop them up. i agree with lord adonis about east coast, that was a disgrace, but in this case i think the problem is, and he might be right on this one as well, but the only trouble is it's like the banks, too big to fail. as you said, they are running all of these contracts that maintain prisons, the nhs, hospitals, quite a view of those, and that work has to be done, so the question ultimately will be, the company, the work, a

lot of it, will continue, so it's a question of whether losses will come. the company will probably be restructured and formulated in underway and somebody will have to ta ke underway and somebody will have to take a hit. and one is the investors in the company at the moment taking a loss, or the other one is that the government has to step in and do it on their behalf. obviously, the right course is probably for the individual investors to take that hit, as private investors, and that's probably what should happen. whether that does happen or not is the big political question of the coming weeks. let's look at the second story on the times. households face big fines in fly—tipping crackdown food how do you trace it back to a particular house? these things make headlines and it looks good, households will be fined £400 for paying in an man ina van be fined £400 for paying in an man in a van or taking were rubbish. we know that local government has been decimated by austerity, so how are

they going to have time to police this and bring prosecutions? it's a lengthy process already declined to prosecute people for fly—tipping. lengthy process already declined to prosecute people forfly—tipping. —— to try and prosecute. it's come from death row —— defra, and the conservatives seem to be using this asa conservatives seem to be using this as a battering ram to get into the public good books. a lot of the reason why people are fly—tipping is that bin collections have been cut by cuts to local government. and also recycling centres and household waste disposal centres, which seem to be open less and less and it's harder and harder to get them to dispose of your stuff. they have a lwa ys dispose of your stuff. they have always been people who fight it though. that's no excuse. it is possible to take things to be recycling centre or the local tip or stick it in your bins at not at the end of the road. if that does happen. i think the activity is

reprehensible and i'd be entirely in favour of hitting those people hard. if they can back it up. but it's one thing having an aspiration and another actually doing and achieving it. but the principle has to be right, because what happens is people through their old sofa down a lay— by somewhere or whatever and then somebody else, the taxpayer ultimately ends up having to pay for it, and it creates a hell of a mess and costs somebody off the money. and move on to the i. uk's brexit arms deals exclusive, exports to the world's most repressive regimes rise by nearly a third. the year after the vote to leave the eu is the connection they are making. personally, i think that's a bit spurious. of course, we've always wanted, and the independent and the i will not like this, and i think their position was always to be

critical of that type of trade, and that's a legitimate position. if you believe we have arms industry and wa nt believe we have arms industry and want to support that, of course we are going to try and sell the arms. there is a question about who we sell them and some of the people listed here, equatorial guinea, with a terrible record of human rights abuses, so you wonder what we are selling to them. uzbekistan, not the greatest country for human rights. the country they list is responsible for the largest chunk of this increased is oh man, and they talk about it as an authoritarian regime, and it's not a democracy in the pure sense or whatever, but i don't think it's high up on the worst in the world. i don't think it's to do with brexit, probablyjust the timing of a good deal with oman skewing the figures. the article argues that, if you look at the freedom index, it's

those countries you mention that these deals are being struck with. they are trying to develop a post brexit industrial strategy to plug any gap over trade with the rest of the eu. they quote a speech michael fallon made when he was defence secretary about that thing, wanted to spread our arms secretary about that thing, wanted to spread our arms across secretary about that thing, wanted to spread our arms across the world, if you'll pardon the expression. i agree that linking it to brexit, it doesn't need that in there. you can be annoyed that we are selling weapons to those regimes, if you like. i don't see why the brexit angle is in there. we've been doing it for a long time, whether we should be or not. they quote thailand is being a military dictatorship, but would you put that in the same category as saudi arabia? tying it to brexit, ijust think it confuses it a bit too much. guardian, students drafted in to plug nhs gap. while these students?

this is now a tabloid! yes, a new shape. all those who have worked for tabloids can now be sniffy about the guardian. but it was a good format before and it will no doubt do very well, and it is possible to produce a good, quality paper in tabloid format. says a man from the standard! the times with tabloid and produces a good newspaper was“ easier to cope with on the train. produces a good newspaper was“ easier to cope with on the trainm is. it is driven by cost cutting, that's the long and short. so the students, who are they? fourth and fifth year medical students who are being asked to help on wards, according to the letter that the guardian has got hold of saying it shouldn't be beyond their

competence, and the bma is quoted saying that it is indicative of the terrible
