much colder than yesterday, but after yesterday's damp weather, at least today, there is some sunshine around. it is only one part of the weather story. as this picture behind the indicates, the ras snow showers coming quite frequently towards north—western parts of the uk. north—westerly wind and this speckled cloud are the showers moving in. they are producing some snow, for western scotland, northwest in and added to the pennines. in the hills we will see several centimetres accumulating. especially into western scotland. further east you are today, fewer showers, more in the way of sunshine, so it isjust an indication of some of the showers. but, you get the idea. there are gaps between them, you can see the greenland indicating that you might see some sunshine, the odd shower of either sleep —— either asleep or heal. the rest the uk will avoid them and stay dry. temperatures are down compared with yesterday. around
9:31 am
3-7d. down compared with yesterday. around 3—7d. everywhere will feel a bit squad than that —— will feel a bit colder. snow showers into northern ireland, western scholars, if you enter the midlands. very few go to eastern and southern miss part in the uk. it is clear, it is frosty wherever you are. it is icy where you have these snow showers, so things could be a bit tricky on monday morning. on through monday, you keep these snow showers for longer in the day, but eventually, for many, a lot of quiet, clear, fine, sunny weather around during monday. the wind changing to a south—westerly becomes a little less cold, but still on the cold side. and this weather system is coming in monday night and into tuesday on the atlantique. it is coming into cold air. strong winds, as well. gazza developing a header it, to the western coast, and then rain, sleet and snow across the uk as we go into
9:32 am
tuesday morning. a risk of significance in scotland. notjust on the hills, with parts of northern england, as well. we will keep you updated on that, and or change of a weather this week, rain and start times, often windy with gales. this is bbc news — our latest headlines: the international development secretary, penny mordaunt, is warning all uk charities which receive government aid for work abroad that the funding will be withdrawn — if they fail to co—operate
9:33 am
with the authorities over safeguarding issues. the foreign secretary, boris johnson, has met the leader of myanmar, aung san suu kyi, for talks which included the issue of the rojingya muslims. nearly 700,000 rohingya have crossed the border into neighbouring bangladesh, after a crackdown by the burmese military. a report commissioned by a group of mps is warning of major problems faced by children in england whose parents drink too much. almost a fifth of children reported feeling embarrassed by seeing their parent drunk. hello and welcome to our look at the sunday papers. with me are the broadcaster lynn faulds wood and the political editor of the sun on sunday, dave wooding. let's have a look at some of the front pages.
9:34 am
the observer leads with labour's attack on the privatised water industry, calling the amount in dividends paid to shareholders "scandalous". the mail on sunday's front page says that brendan cox, husband of murdered mpjo cox, was accused of sexual abuse. his lawyers say he vehemently denies the allegations. the sunday telegraph reports on concerns from some eu countries that chief brexit negotiator michel barnier‘s conduct could lead to the uk walking away from brexit talks. the sunday express previews a speech from the prime minster, saying she will set out plans to make the uk "a truly global, free trading nation". the sunday times has more allegations concerning the conduct of aid workers, suggesting that more than 120 people working for leading charities have been accused of sexual abuse in the past year. there we go. that start off with
9:35 am
that story in the observer, continuing allegations about oxfam. their front continuing allegations about oxfam. theirfront page continuing allegations about oxfam. their front page have line, oxfam faces their front page have line, oxfam fa ces fres h their front page have line, oxfam faces fresh claims over a start paying for sex. we have seen the allegations. some of the front pages ifind a bit allegations. some of the front pages i find a bit thin. allegations. some of the front pages ifind a bit thin. based on not much evidence. in this wonder is quite a lot of evidence. oxfam's chap... this was 200,000 people died in the earthquake. you don't move into a nice flat and then run things. it's horrible barren ground. you have to find people who were prepared to go into these words owns. —— horrible bear on the ground. there were 2000 charities piling in there. it's a bit chaotic. however, they found out that this guy has got form because he was previously in chad, when
9:36 am
there was a civil war. he has been one of these people prepared to go to hotspots, and hasn't been much control over what he has been doing, it looks like. a sacked for people in 2011, and they put in new contracts were they have to sign that they want to give people money, won't exploit under 18—year—olds and so on. won't exploit under 18—year—olds and so on. but it looks as if they have handled it really badly. they should have warned more about what was going on, they should have told the charity commission more about what was going on. getting hit for to do so, and more stuff is going to turn up. they have safeguarding teams now, whistle—blowing. but the papers are finding out all sorts of things went on that really, this is only six years ago, should have been disclosed to us. how damaging is this going to be to oxfam is potentially other charities, in
9:37 am
terms of, obviously, they depend on goodwill from the public to raise funds? oxfam is the gold star of charities. it is a big brand, a major brand. when you want to help developing countries, it is one of the charities you think of first. if we askjournalists were doing something about a tragedy of some kind in these far—flung countries, which charity do you ring first? oxfam. it is a trusted brands. they received £32 million last year from the government. as well as money from well—wishers and donors. small donations, the donations. this is massive. we have stories already about the huge salaries paid to the bosses of these charities. now we are seeing some of these key workers, in chad here, having sex parties in their houses, when they're supposed to be helping people. it's going to be really long—term damage for them. they do
9:38 am
good work, in fairness, we have to acce pt good work, in fairness, we have to accept that these charities do a lot of good work, but this just doesn't help at all. they do great work. oxfa m help at all. they do great work. oxfam is like the bbc, a trusted global brands. several points made in the article, who do you think i’u ns in the article, who do you think runs oxfam ? they in the article, who do you think runs oxfam? they say here that it is mainly white blokes and that they —— the trustees also are mainly white. in these countries, they tend to be white blokes again and that are out there. the locals will think twice about reporting a white man in these countries. there is a lot. i think oxfa m countries. there is a lot. i think oxfam is a great charity, and i hope they can get through this and that people don't withdraw too much funding. it is the world needs them. the sunday times are focusing on the same story. the daily times has been making the running on this oxfam story during the week. they're saying more than 120 workers from
9:39 am
britain's leading charities have been accused of sexual abuse in the last year alone. fuelling fears that paedophiles are targeting overseas aid organisations. there are other household names being dragged into this now. the figures are quite gobsmacking. oxfam, 87 incidents reported, 53 of them sent to the police. they do children are involved now in various allegations. 31 people there, ten of them refer to the police. christian aid, the british red cross as well. all of these charities have had incidents. what seems to be the theme is that they're concerned with damage to their reputation, damage or imitation and pr than they are about coming clean and dealing with these problems. i've been very involved in the charity world of cancer. i think they're quite often run by naive, kindly people. or that is the way
9:40 am
they start out. i don't see evil coming at them well enough. they have to get better at looking at their staff, especially in hotspots, where they have hundreds of thousands of millions of vulnerable people, and making sure that they somehow have intelligence spread between themselves. some of the people they sacked in 2011 have gone on to work in other charities in other hotspots. and probably behaved in the same way. 0k, other hotspots. and probably behaved in the same way. ok, let's go onto another story that is in the observer. this is about labour's nationalisation plans. the headline, the water pay—outs are a public scandal, says labour. the shadow chancellor promising permanence, total and cost free renationalisation of water, energy and rail. if labour win the next election. back to the future! those ofa certain election. back to the future! those of a certain age will remember the nationalised industries. a new
9:41 am
generation now seeing the railways as they have been for the last 30 or 40 years, privatised and still might them. they don't know what nationalised railways were right. and then of course the water industry and the power industries are all within the site of the labour party now. john mcdonnell, shadow chancellor, is highlighting in the observer piece of the private water authorities have a lot of criticism about them. they make profits and they haven't invested money in dealing with the underground is... is this a vote winner? possibly. ithink british rail is more a vote winner than anything else. that's consistently is the only thing, certainly at the la st is the only thing, certainly at the last election, that labour were polling high in against the conservatives. i'm waiting. people do want to see the roadways improve. john mcdonnell's big problem is convincing us all how he's going to paper at this. he said yesterday he is going to borrow money as exit and
9:42 am
everyone gasped. he said it'sjust like borrowing a mortgage to buy a house, and he rented out and get money back in from the people you read too. you make so much profit, pay off the mortgage and spend some money on dealing with the repairs inside, riding a better service. the problem is, who were you going to get to do the dealing with it? politicians don't normally make a good job of running things. visibly and man in the audience at question time a week or two ago, saying, they are already owned by nationalised industries. —— there was a brilliant man. the company ‘s own utilities, oui’ man. the company ‘s own utilities, our water are so man. the company ‘s own utilities, oui’ water are so one, man. the company ‘s own utilities, our water are so one, and rail. they all already nationalised. in germany, france, spain, the netherlands, they have all got nationalised industries. they own large chunks of our industries. i think there is a third way that needs to be looked at, not the hard nationalisation, not the free for
9:43 am
all but we seem to have on private companies owning this and paying their... paying more money than they need to. and also they get tax benefits, tax credits that outweigh the tax they pay. there should be a third way. if it works in these other european countries, why aren't we doing more of it here? that talk about brexit. no paper review would be complete without our brexit round—up. the sunday telegraph have a big front—page lead about michel barnier. you have been talking pretty tough again about the uk. —— he has been talking. some of the other 27 countries in the eu are worried that michel barnier is risking a uk walk—out. is that right? michel barnier is being accused, the chief negotiator, of being a bit of the bully this week. he has been saying... he says the
9:44 am
transition is not a given. they will ground the planes from flying across europe. i can't see that happening. they seem to be doing all the running. they seem to be digging their heels in, playing hardball. we seem to be of four bit more meat and smiled at these negotiations. we are also divided. the labour party want to show that the tree government are doing a bad job. and you have the remainers as well. and then the government. . remainers as well. and then the government! michel barnier represent the 27th? do you think the location is he's going out on the bit about them? i think it could be a bit of that. they're claiming that the nordics and the eastern europeans are not feeling that this is being well handled. i would love... idid
9:45 am
is being well handled. i would love... i did watchdog for ten yea rs. love... i did watchdog for ten years. i have never been allowed to put everything on screen that haven't got evidence backing it up. i don't see the evidence here.|j haven't got evidence backing it up. i don't see the evidence here. i do believe the actual thrust but if the british government were to walk away at... one of the points he wants to do, michel barnier, is to say, during the two—year transition, we have to abide by new directives that are issued in that two years. there is about 40 of them being lined up. we also have to continue to pay our money on. is britain said ok, we have got power of veto, not good to pay you have got power of veto, not good to pay you a penny. they were like that. we have a negotiating strategy as well as the eu in this. this is all to be fleshed out over the next few weeks. i would like to see a strategy from the government. they
9:46 am
have been talking about that in this brexit cabinet committee. it is called a war cabinet. we are not at war! we chose to leave, let's do it nicely. there were too many men involved in this story. let's have better language. that let a woman in. hang on, theresa may is doing a! let's go onto cheerleaders in the observer. a great story about the winter olympics. the north korean spare the sister of kim jong—un. i skip to paper. never mind. we will stay with the observer. we have these cheerleaders injung chang for these cheerleaders injung chang for the winter olympics. —— intojung chang. they are doing synchronised clapping which is rather wonderful. is this an opportunity for some dete nte is this an opportunity for some detente between north and south
9:47 am
korea? it certainly looks like it. they are talking as if they are united at least over the winter olympics. the cheerleaders have to move a lot of people out of the seats of the google be together. it looked like they have been rehearsing for weeks to do this synchronised charger leading. —— so they could be together. we know china is worried that the north will get too cosy with the south. america is worried that the southgate too cosy with the north. they are caught between two superpowers. it's nice to see something positive happening, when up to now we have been frightened of these nukes. that picture of kim jong—un's sister checking hands with the south korean president. it is 60 or 70 years since these countries have been officially at war. i think it's tremendous. it shows there is a hope even in what we think is the most
9:48 am
stark scenarios. what i love about theseis stark scenarios. what i love about these is that instead of watching this first game where the two countries played together in the olympics, and sadly lost, everyone was watching the cheerleaders rather than the games. they were so excited. i'm going to watch liverpool this afternoon. they're all dressed in red. i think we should get them cheering on the red! 's in all comes down to football! the sunday telegraph. we talked before about the boris bridge, this idea that boris johnson before about the boris bridge, this idea that borisjohnson talked about, as well as the tunnel we might have a bridge across the channel. there was quite a lot of scepticism when he first mentioned back. the sunday telegraph suggesting it. dreams may come true. is very longer bridge anywhere in the world? there is one in china which is huge. there is a big one in
9:49 am
sweden but i don't know what it's called. it's not another boris distraction... it may be a bridge too far. they were able to put in measures to stop the ira blowing up the tunnel or it up underneath it? itjust seems to me completely impractical. as not fall through, which may of course be boris's way of making a distraction. it's like trump, you just lob something out there to distract people from what's really happening. the thrust of this story, despite the government rolling arrives, is that the french boss of eurotunnel has not ruled this out. in fact he's going a bit further in saying they are positively looking at this and it might be something... they're
9:50 am
always looking at ways to extend their... of course. iwould always looking at ways to extend their... of course. i would have thought another tunnel. you can control a tunnel. the huge flaw with the bridges that you can't control it. and who is going to pay for it? is the mexicans again? or money tree? i think you work and using the issue! —— or confusing the issue. this is a nice story in the sunday times. i've felt by, and that of a heart—throb, isn't it? —— he has been touted as a possible james bond in the past. —— idris elba. he has proposed to his 29—year—old girlfriend. the post yesterday as a preview of his new film. actually in the cinema. siovas proposed her. everyone piled andy dalton. it used
9:51 am
to be one of those areas that no light was shown on. so thank you very much, idris elba. i used to watch on the wire and he was brilliant. he is a wonderful actor andi brilliant. he is a wonderful actor and i wish or the luck in the world. it is is time achieved. the paper describes the breast to us short lived. i don't big we need to go too much into that. —— describes the first two marriages as short lived. i love the tutte week. one young woman puts, i am heartbroken. i love the tutte week. one young woman puts, lam heartbroken. please note texts or calls today. another brits, don't worry, he will be back on the market within a couple of years. for an actor that lives an extraordinary life, he looks like a nice bloke. speaking of nice people
9:52 am
who are actors, let's talk about sex and the city. this is the nice —— the front page of the mail on sunday. there is a bit of a war going on between the sex and the city stars. you are a bit of a fan, i think? no, city stars. you are a bit of a fan, ithink? no, i... way back city stars. you are a bit of a fan, i think? no, i... way back when. city stars. you are a bit of a fan, ithink? no, i... way back when. it was novel a long time ago. there we re was novel a long time ago. there were two films and... this is between kim could row and sarah jessica parker. jim's brother has very sadly died. he looks to have been a bit troubled. —— kim. sarah jessica parker tweeted or text it is publicly about her sympathy. king trowel jests went straight into publicly about her sympathy. king troweljests went straight into her, saying she should not have sent out that tweets. but out. there seems to be very bad blood. alter a hypocrite as well. i can't find my paper. stop
9:53 am
exposing our tragedy, you cruel grids. you assume have a watch that theory is that they're all great friends. —— cruel hypocrites. theory is that they're all great friends. -- cruel hypocrites. it is like the series friends, do you think they all got on well? you were a huge fan of sex and the city, weren't you? it was one of these programmes with fashion, cocktail. it went across various age groups. young people and older people. it was a bit of a cult series. when something gets so popular, people buy into the personalities they see us buy into the personalities they see us believe that, not that they are real, but that's that is what they're in person. clearly they are
9:54 am
not. there is some friction. the twea ks, not. there is some friction. the tweaks, and you were normally allowed 140 characters, this is an extremely long tweets from him. i hope she regret sending it because it is so strong. my mum asked me today, when will that sarahjessica parker and leave you alone? it's horrible. a sad note to end our paper review. i do so much for being with us. banks again. —— thank you. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — seven days a week at bbc dot co uk forward slash papers — and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, lisa and sarah. goodbye. it isa
