and the eu helping each other to keep people safe. the prime minister said that real political will is required to safeguard intelligence co—operation which has developed over the decades. people across europe are safer because of this cooperation and the unique arrangements we have developed between the uk and eu institutions in recent years. so it is in all of our interests to find ways to protect the capabilities that underpin this cooperation when the uk becomes a european country outside the eu, but in a new partnership with it. to make this happen will require real political will on both sides. i recognise there is no existing security agreement between the eu and a third country that captures the full depth and breadth of our existing relationship, but there is precedent for comprehensive strategic relationships between the eu and third countries in other fields, such as trade, and there is no legal

or operational reason why such an agreement could not be reached in the interests of internal security. however, if the priority in the negotiations becomes avoiding any kind of new cooperation with a country outside the eu, then this political doctrine and ideology will have damaging real world consequences for the security of all our people in the uk and the eu. the prime minister has also urged the eu to consider a unique arrangement with the uk after brexit which she acknowledges would be unprecedented for a country outside of the eu. she said that the uk is a special case, offering its substantial defence resources and expertise in counter terrorism and a new security treaty would be in everyone's interests. the treaty must preserve our operational capabilities, but it must also fulfil three further requirements. it must be respectful of the sovereignty of both the uk and the eu's legal orders. so, for example, when participating

in eu agencies, the uk will respect the remit of the european court ofjustice and a principled but pragmatic solution for legal cooperation will be needed to respect our legal status as a separate country with our own legal sovereign order. as i have said before, we will need to agree a strong and appropriate form of independent dispute resolution across all areas of future partnerships in which both sides can have confidence. we must recognise the importance of comprehensive and robust data protection arrangements. theresa may, there. also speaking this morning in munich, jean—claude juncker of the european commission. he said that this approach should be maintained.

translation: the commonalities between the eu and the uk and i would like to say that i believe, since we are not at war with the uk, since we are not at war with the uk, since we are not at war with the uk, since we would not take revenge on the uk for what the british people has decided, so, this security alliance, the security bridge between the uk and the eu will be maintained. however, you cannot mix up maintained. however, you cannot mix up this question with other questions that are important, in the context of brexit. you have to look at them individually and have the a nswer at them individually and have the answer each question on merit, but i do not want to mix up security considers with other considerations. our chief international correspondence is in munich now. what will the reception of theresa

may's speech and this apparent discord over security arrangements? there was lots of discussion behind—the—scenes about what role britain with glee after brexit. there are questions being asked by britain's partners, those who have been coming to the munich conference for many years and working closely with britain about why britain is choosing to go the way that it has decided. it was noticeable the respectful but silent reception theresa may got for her speech here in munich. there were two questions asked of her, that she could avoid all this if she decided not to leave the european union and that created a wave of laughter across the audience but again at the end she was asked if britain could roll back its decision to leave the eu, but we saw whatjean—claude juncker had said, very respectful towards britain's prime minister but again,

saying matter—of—factly that the issues were not just saying matter—of—factly that the issues were notjust about saying matter—of—factly that the issues were not just about security, theissues issues were not just about security, the issues of brexit were quite different and he did not want to ta ke different and he did not want to take revenge, but that was not the main issue on the agenda. there is no doubt that there is recognition of the royal britain plays an intelligence sharing, in meeting common threats. we saw that yesterday when the heads of the three intelligence agencies, m16 and the intelligence agencies of france and germany said they must continue the security and intelligence corporation because it matters too much to be caught up in ideological oi’ much to be caught up in ideological or political considerations. much to be caught up in ideological or political considerationsm much to be caught up in ideological or political considerations. it is curious for theresa may to be in munich lecturing the eu on this, you know, don't put ideology in front of security when it was amber rudd, aaron home secretary, who was warning the eu that we could take oui’ warning the eu that we could take our information with us if we left the bloc without a deal on security

matters. this is a very well—informed, shrewd and astute audience. they know very well that kind of pressures theresa may is facing at home, notjust from the british public but from within her own party. we understand the considerations that would have gone into the riding of the speech and the very decision to come here, because in past munich security conference as it was the defence secretary who came. the fact that she came here herself to emphasise britain's role in europe and beyond after brexit is a measure of how theresa may feels that she still has a message that she has to send, because it has not been received yet. thank you. the president of haiti has called for an investigation into the activities of aid agencies working in his country, saying that the sex scandal involving some oxfam workers after the 2010 earthquake was just the tip of the iceberg. he told the reuters news agency that one charity, medecins sans frontieres, had repatriated some its staff

from haiti without any explanation. john mcmanus reports. haiti in the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake. oxfam has been on the defensive over allegations that some of its staff paid prostitutes here. i always dreamed of working for them. this woman, who spoke anonymously to the bbc, was there to deliver aid for the charity. says she was attacked by a colleague. he pinned me up against the wall, he was groping me, grabbing me, kissing me and i wasjust trying to shove him off. and got him off eventually and he got mad and he threw his glass at me. now, haiti's president jovenel moise has said other charities also have questions to answer and he has made a specific allegation against medecins sans frontieres, also known as doctors without borders, who sends medical staff around the world. the president said msf had

to repatriate about 17 people for misconduct, without any explanation why. in response, msf said: msf has already admitted that it fired 19 staff members last year after allegations of harassment or sexual assault. so how widespread is the problem? oxfam are not alone in this. every agency in the aid sector has the problem. we work in a sector that attracts the vulnerable — that, works, sorry supports vulnerable people. therefore, attracts predators. meanwhile oxfam's uk head says the evidence in haiti ——events in haiti were a disgrace but also told the guardian newspaper that: certainly, the intense scrutiny

of the aid sector is unlikely to stop soon. 13 russians have been charged with interfering in the us 2016 election, in a major development in the fbi investigation. donald trump says the indictment vindicates his argument that there was no collusion by his campaign team. here's our north america correspondent peter bowes. the result of the 2016 presidential election is still the subject of much debate and rancorous dispute. now a finger is firmly pointed at outside interference, with 13 russian citizens accused of trying to affect the outcome. the defendants allegedly conducted what they called information warfare against the united states, with the stated goal of spreading mistrust towards the candidates and the political system in general. the indictments said the defendants used fictitious online personal

accounts and posted political messages in social media that impersonated real us citizens. they had fraudulent bank accounts and false identification documents. their operation supported the campaign of candidate donald j trump, who disparaged hillary clinton. mr trump has always strongly denied that his campaign had anything to do with russian interference in the election and the words of the deputy attorney general add credibility to the president's view. there is no allegation in this indictment that any american was a knowing participant in this illegal activity. in a statement, the white house said the president was: this is the most significant

development in the russian investigation, but it isn't over yet. in the winter olympics elise christie has reached the semifinals of the women's speed skating 1500 metres. she kept the back —— near the back for several of the rounds but then moved into pole position and comfortably took the lead. our correspondence is at the uk ice centre in nottingham. what was the atmosphere like during that heat? centre in nottingham. what was the atmosphere like during that heat7m was bubbling up nicely. there has been lots of anticipation to see elise coming onto the ice. there was lot of tension in the room, this was the entire team gb short track academy we have got here watching

on. sara gone martin is moved to the final, the compatriot andrew room eight elise christie. let's talk to the head coach of the academy year. you have got all of your crew here watching on. what are they learning, what are you teaching them about what are you teaching them about what they are seeing? one of the biggest things about short track is race skills so he can execute a great race plans were looking at what overtaking people do, what tactics are people using, and we encourage the guys to go out in races and practice those things and learn to do things themselves, and to try and innovate, to do something fio to try and innovate, to do something no one has ever done before. we are talking about charlotte and elise, and pat thompson he went early on and pat thompson he went early on and went out, but the reactions there —— here seem to be overtaking that. they are paying real attention to detail. there was a culture

within the sport, when someone does something impressive, you kind of get excited by it, and you want to do it yourself. the first semifinal is about the go, neither of the british skaters is in this, can charlotte and elise both make the final? charlotte is a real contender. if she gets it right, we feel like she could actually get into the a final all the b final, and elise is looking very strong in her first round, so we are really excited to watch this round. we saw the 1000 metres for the men. the british skater got bumped about and lost a bit of speed. that is what i have to watch more. the more experience you get, the more you can deal with those experience. that is something that he will want to be coming back to training, and making sure that he can deal with that kind of thing happening in racing. we are all on about elise, she is the fastest in the world, the best in

the world objectively, when you look at times, at her recent record. has she got the psychological strength to go on and take these medals? absolutely. watching her in that first round, she looked relaxed in the early part of the race, then we saw up at the speed on and make the pass round the outside. there are very few girls who can skate past a previous olympic champion doing that. the british olympic academy are watching you at the national ice centre, and it is elise that they really wa nt centre, and it is elise that they really want to see. we will bring you those heats and the semifinals as soon as they begin. still on the first race. and it depends if there is any arguing over the result how quickly we get onto the second. we will keep watching that. ukip members will vote for or against sacking their current leader at an emergency meeting

joanna parrish, from gloucestershire. she was found dead in a river in the burgundy region. the family's lawyer said fourniret had appeared in court "two to three times" in the past week and admitted the killing on each occasion. lee madan reports. joanna parrish went to france to work in a school as part of her university course, but she never came home. she disappeared after placing annabel —— an advert in a local newspaper offering lessons. instead, she was abducted, raped and killed, her body found in a river. now, almost three decades on, the main suspect has finally confessed to murdering her. he was jailed in 2008 for murdering seven young women. his wife monique was his accomplice. i can't deny that we had been hoping to get some news from the french authorities for some time, but it was still quite a shock when we heard from france that he had actually admitted

to being involved injo's murder. the parents ofjoanna parrish have spent the last decades fighting for justice for their daughter, pressing the french authorities to keep investigating the case. we suspected fournierfor many investigating the case. we suspected fournier for many years, based investigating the case. we suspected fournierfor many years, based on investigating the case. we suspected fournier for many years, based on a number of things, quite a lot as a matter of fact, but we have always recognised that those things have been circumstantial, probably not evidence that could have entirely supported a legal case. fournier is yet to be challenged with the murder ofjohn appleby questioned further, but the family hope that their long search for answers will finally be over. “— search for answers will finally be over. —— the murder ofjoanna will be questioned further. charlotte gilmartin is going in the second semifinal in the women's speed

skating 1500 metres. mike bushell is watching from the bbc sport centre. they are still having a break after the first of those semifinals. great britain are celebrating winning, a first ever winter olympic medal on skis. izzy atkin who's based in utah in the usa, won a historic bronze, in the ski slopestyle, doubling britain's medal haul at these games. ben croucher reports. this is the face of history, gb's first silverware on skis. slopestyle is about nailing the rail and avoiding the bumps on thejumps. this teenager adds substance with some style. born and raised with the us to a british father and malaysian mother, atkin honed her skills on the slopes of maine when she was three. tricks like this have taken her 16 years to plan. before the final of three runs, atkin was pushed from the podium. this had to be flawless. biggest run of her life. starts now. every grind, twist and jump

jiving with jeopardy. she laid down a school good enough for third, but could anyone deny her some slopestyle silverware? ooh, no, she's down! great britain's izzy atkin takes a bronze. there were tonnes of big names in the field. it could have been anyone's. i was standing at the bottom after my third run, i had skied the best i could and i was just waiting for those last three or four girls to drop and my heart was racing. but ijust can't believe it. well, believe it, you're and olympic bronze medallist. let me take you now to the skating rink in gangneung. charlotte gilmartin is in this semifinal but there has been a false start, no, they are off, this is a 1500 metres race. they do start slowly for the

first two three laps, then they get going, that is when the interesting stuff starts. it is a procession at the moment with charlotte gilmartin tucked in behind the leader. it is only the top two that go through to the semifinals. the top two go through to the final this lunchtime. charlotte gilmartin is in this one. in the next semifinal we will see a elise christie as she looks to try and find an olympic medal. it is starting to hot up. you can see them picking up pace. in the meantime... the skeleton will wrap up what could be a super saturday for team gb. laura deas lies in fourth position at the halfway mark, whilst team—mate lizzy yarnold is third. she's just one tenth behind the leader, with two more runs to go. she's aiming to become the first briton to successfully defend a winter olympic title.

in curling, britain's women enjoyed a fairly routine victory against denmark. they've now got three wins out of four and they'll play south korea later this morning. the men suffered a shock defeat to south korea — who came into this match bottom of the group and without a win but britain went down 11—5 and it means they are out of the top four places, and so as things stand wouldn't make the semi—finals, but they have four matches to make the cut and turn it around. we would just talk about what happened in some of the situations in the fifth and sixth end, where the game got away from us. and you will see if we can cut out a couple of key misses, and keep it together, really. chelsea eased into the quarterfinals of the fa cup with a 4-0 quarterfinals of the fa cup with a 4—0 victory over hull city. all of the goals in the first half, two of them from willian, and a comfortable night for antonio conte's side. they'll be joined in the next round by leicester city. the only goal of their game against sheffield united coming in the second half from jamie vardy.

doesn't look like charlotte gilmartin is going to qualify from the semifinal in the winter olympics, by the way. she had a bit ofa olympics, by the way. she had a bit of a crash, she is up on her skates again but is trying to catch the pack and is a long way behind. what about the weather back home? here is sarah keith lucas. it was a cold, frosty start towards the south and east of england. we had a little bit more cloud around there. many of us will see a fine day today. some sunny spells into the afternoon. by tomorrow, more cloud, and in between, milder with some rain in the west. rherras guys now moving in from the north—west. in the middle of the country, we have a weak weather front bringing some cloud and a band of catchy rain moving south eastwards. not a lot of rain in that system into the afternoon,

just a band of cloud through the midlands and into southern england. 12 showers towards the west of scotland, perhaps the odd shower for northern ireland and north—west england. temperatures between 8-11dc. england. temperatures between 8—11dc. reasonably mild towards the south. some of those showers falling as snow, over the hills. this evening and tonight, that band of cloud drifts away from the south—east, clear skies for central and eastern parts, clouding over from the west, so remaining frost free for western parts, and to the east, subzero temperatures for sunday morning. with some mist and fog around, too. through sunday, we have high—pressure holding on across the near continent, but this warm front working in from the atlantic. it is introducing milder air. the wind coming from the west or the south west as we head through the day on sunday. it will be a cold start on the east with some frost and fog, but becoming milderfrom the west as cloud builds with rain

affecting northern ireland, the west of scotland, western england and wales. temperatures in double figures, in the south and west, cooler in the north—east. on monday, we still have the remnants of that front from sunday but this time it is producing rain for central and eastern parts. temperatures between seven and 11 celsius. then things start to change through next week. that mild air clears the south. the blue collar is returning to the map. colder air moving in from scandinavia with that easterly wind developing. i'll start to next week and it all begin to feel more wintry, later in the week. —— a mild start to next week. hello, and a very warm welcome to dateline london. i'm carrie gracie. this week we discuss a british plea on european security, south africa after president zuma, and the continuing absence of a government for northern ireland. my guests this week are the guardian columnist polly toynbee,

dr vincent magombe of africa international, the irish writer and broadcaster brian o'connell, and thomas kielinger of germany's die welt. welcome to you all. the british prime minister, theresa may, has urged the european union to sign up to a security treaty to ensure that cooperation continues after britain leaves. addressing the munich security conference, she warned that if the eu's aim in the brexit talks was to avoid cooperation then the security of all would be damaged. if the eu's aim is to avoid cooperation, thomas kielinger, is the eu's aim to avoid co—operation and if so, why? i have long given up to try to figure out what goes on in the mind of our leaders and this phrase is totally puzzling. she seems to hold hostage the british security involvement in europe to the outcome

of the brexit talks, and she is in no way to speak that language. she must work for flexibility, cooperation and so on. any intimation of trying to demand something else is totally misplaced. she is on a sticky wicket, as we know, and there is no consensus. we are still
