the i has the same story, which is summed up in its headline: " landmark victory for crime victims". the mirror claims worboys received £166,000 in legal aid to defend his sex crimes. the telegraph reports that theresa may faces a backlash because senior ministers claim the cabinet didn't sign off on a brexit strategy that would limit free trade deals. the guardian carries a photo of students marching in florida, calling for tighter gun control after last week's school shooting. more people should get pills to combat depression, is the lead in the times. the financial times claims unilever could move its hq from britain to the netherlands. and finally, the express says an arctic storm is heading for the uk. so, the worboys case, and pills for depression share the headlines on many of the front pages, so let's look at them in more detail. let's start with the warboys case,

in the metro, the headline, the met must pay for the failure to nail warboys. this is the case of the black cab driver, john warboys, won, the two victims of his have won a law case against the metropolitan police after officers failed to take action after they reported what happened to them. laura, if you can kick as off, according to the metro, landmark ruling opens doorfor kick as off, according to the metro, landmark ruling opens door for other crime victims to sue the police. what are the implications? they could be significant, but i don't think there will be a huge rush of cases to begin with. it is a very big case, the supreme court upholding a decision by the high court that the police could be liable under article three of the human rights act under the european convention of human rights, as opposed to a negligence claim, which

traditionally they would lose. so instead under article three if you can show in cases of serious crime that there was a failure of investigation alone, and notjust that there was a failure of investigation alone, and not just a systematic failure, but you have to have a serious failure, also where the crime was sufficiently serious, then that could lead to a compensation claim. but i think the testis compensation claim. but i think the test is quite high. you have to have a serious crime, there has to be a sufficiently serious breakdown in the investigation for you to even consider a compensation claim against the police. in the case of warboys, they made significant mistakes early on in the investigation. has a serious crime actually been defined yet? i don't think it has, has it? no, but in this case you can see why these two women were successful at the supreme

court, after the high court ruled they were entitled to compensation, and that was taken to the supreme court. 0bviously something has gone wrong when someone court. 0bviously something has gone wrong when someone is thought to have carried out over 100 such attacks and is not caught. 0bviously something has gone wrong with the investigation. so i do think that this landmark ruling is to be welcomed if it makes those investigations more rigorous, and means that less people have to go through this before arrests and proceedings are taken. john warboys is also on the front of the daily mirror. the headline says black cab rapist given £166,000 in legal aid. i presume he hasn't been given this personally, this presumably is going to his lawyers. a headline designed to his lawyers. a headline designed to in rage, but there is a legal aid

syste m to in rage, but there is a legal aid system in this country, and as the decision by the parole board, which isa decision by the parole board, which is a different aspect of this warboys case, it has beenjudicially reviewed not by the government but by two of his victims who i believe have had to crowdfund for their legal fees. john warboys was entitled to legal representation in thatjudicial review entitled to legal representation in that judicial review and somehow the mirror have calculated it at 166,000, which seems like a lot, but it is not going to him personally, it is not going to him personally, it is not going to him personally, it is going to his lawyers forced up i would be interested to see how they come up —— came upon that number. we shall see post of let's move on to the financial times and economic news, borrowing and productivity figures spark double windfall for the treasury. this is that government borrowing was less than expected but there has been a

rise in productivity. the ft is reporting this as good news and a windfall for the treasury, though it might not necessarily show up in the forthcoming budget. they might decide to stash it, you know, save it for a decide to stash it, you know, save itfora rainy decide to stash it, you know, save it for a rainy day. but they are reporting productivity has increased by o.9%, reporting productivity has increased by 0.9%, which is the strongest six months since before the crash. 0bviously that is great news but in context it is not amazing. 0.9% is not amazing. britain's recovery is still the slowest in the g—7 country since 2008, and low productivity is of course keeping wages down as well. productivity should be around 296. well. productivity should be around 2%. during the 90s it was at 5%. so it is not great news, and you might also argue, and some economists do, that the two things are linked, the fa ct that the two things are linked, the fact the government is not spending is what is keeping our recovery so slow and so slow, because you need

for the government needs to invest in infrastructure, in major building products, in order to stimulate the economy and get it out of the slump it is currently in, and that is affecting semi people. and laura, unemployment has gone up as well hasn't it? it has gone up slightly. it is true that productivity is a big issue in the economy first no one can quite put their finger on why it has been so stubbornly low. of course investing in infrastructure is one way, but that of course will mean further borrowing, and public borrowing is at least down. of course another way would be to cut taxes, and then employers would invest in there and please because it is the please themselves, it is how much they can produce, that is what drives productivity. so that is the other way of looking at it, if you cut taxes, that can drive productivity. except it never does because

trickle—down economics is not a thing. it doesn't work. that's not true, but anyway. we will agree to disagree, because i am sure we can all agree on brexit. the headline, backlash at theresa may's plan for brexit transition. this says ministers claim cabinet never signed off on the strategy that could limit free trade deals. this was the strategy i think that was leaked earlier this morning and then finally published about five o'clock this afternoon. this is about theresa may's plan for transition which some ministers are annoyed about because they say they never signed off on it. it is really hard to figure out why this would have happened. i mean, all this week, all we have heard is about this road to brexit, you know, which has been... rocky. otherwise described as a road to nowhere. we have had these big speeches from the brexit related ministers, this much trumpeted big

meeting of cabinet, tomorrow and eight hour—long awayday in which they finally, a year and a half later, tell us what they actually wa nt later, tell us what they actually want from brexit. and so maybe this over the transition, maybe itjust got sort of lost in the detail, maybe it fell down the back of the sofa, maybe they just maybe it fell down the back of the sofa, maybe theyjust thought maybe it fell down the back of the sofa, maybe they just thought that actually we don't need to agree anything on a transition deal, because by definition a transition deal is static, nothing changes. if it changes then you have another deal that you have to renegotiate for the transition period and what will be the point of that. so it is ha rd to will be the point of that. so it is hard to figure out. unfortunately they have to still agree on how long they have to still agree on how long the transition will be and how the rights in that period will be affected. for instance, a big sticking point is whether free movement would continue or whether it would end, and also the second issue after that would be canned the european court of justice european court ofjustice to arbitrate on it? it is difficult to come to an agreement on a transition

deal, it will be even more difficult to come to an agreement on what brexit will actually look like. there is no doubt there is clearly a split within the party, and tomorrow at chequers seems to be the day that theresa may thinks she can sort of nailjell—o to the wall. that might be quite difficult but jacob rees—mogg of course has a piece in the telegraph, quoted here, saying the telegraph, quoted here, saying the current document would lead to brexit in name only and was a perversion of democracy. he says it has been disowned by ministers as not representing government policy. he is the leading brexiteer who wants a much cleaner brexit than perhaps is on offer. i think things will stay pretty difficult for theresa may at the moment. the clock is ticking so just want to make mention of the photograph of the telegraph, which is the first lady offarming, telegraph, which is the first lady of farming, this is the first female president of the national farmers union in over 100 years.

president of the national farmers union in over100 years. yes, welcome to the 21st century, comrades at the national farmers union! this is a very pleasing picture, i have to say, on this grey day, this very green grass and blue sky picture, it is a relief. ivan know if that segway is well or not well at all into the times. more people should get pills to beat depression. laura, ithink people should get pills to beat depression. laura, i think some people could be surprised by this headline, but doctors are told, according to the times, that millions of sufferers would benefit. they have run the study, i am in no position to second—guess. a global study led by researchers at oxford university, saying that some of these prescriptions for antidepressants are affected. and i think the case might be that general

practitioners are still cautious, in terms of prescribing antidepressants, and there may well be people who would benefit from it who are currently not receiving that prescription. if it helps them, and the trials are there to back it up, then this is something they should be prescribed. rachel, you are nodding. yes, what this report has noted is that there is still an ideological resistance, it describes it as, to antidepressants. this idea that you should not take medicine for issues related to mental health, which is a lingering stigma that means that people are not necessarily getting the treatment that they need. apparently only one in six of those diagnosed with depression are taking the medication. i am being screamed at in my ever we have to leave it there, which is a real shame because eventually interesting talking to you both. thank you, you can see the

front pages of the papers on the bbc news website. if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on the bbc iplayer. thank you rachel and laura, sorry to cut you rachel and laura, sorry to cut you short, always too much to talk and never enough time. it is starting to feel a little bit colder now, but the big freeze is still goes away. in fact, the temperatures won't start dropping away properly until after the weekend. in the short—term, the weather is not looking bad at all, a bright day on the way on thursday with some sunshine. here is the high—pressure giving us the settled weather, building from russia across scandinavia in the western parts of europe. it is stopping any of the atla ntic europe. it is stopping any of the atlantic weather fans coming our way. they are fairly close to our

shores, in fact still a southerly wind here across ireland and the far west of scotland. but for most of us it is the easterly wind winning, and first thing on the morning on thursday it will be pretty chilly, a couple of degrees above freezing in city centres, a couple of degrees below freezing outside of town. thursday, a lot of bright weather around, some clouds stuck in this area of high pressure. it is never com pletely area of high pressure. it is never completely clear. there is a little bit of cloud, light winds floating around the stop for some of us, a bright day, for many of us a fairly sunny day. starting to feel colder now. 4 degrees expected in norwich. here is that easterly wind keeping that weather front out that day in the atlantic. and those tempters will keep giving away, still around four or will keep giving away, still around fouror5 will keep giving away, still around four or 5 degrees for some of us on friday, around seven in belfast, but at least the weather is looking mostly bright. let's have a look at the weekend. the high pressure sta rts the weekend. the high pressure starts to strengthen. when that happens, it means that the winds

around at start to blow a little bit harder, and with more intensity, bringing that cold air in our direction. i suspect even these damages here, belfast, cardiff, london, are a little too— stop could bea london, are a little too— stop could be a couple of degrees above freezing by the time we get to sunday. next week, that high—pressure pretty much stretches from northern and central parts of russia, from siberia, so we are in for a real blast. the cold spell is certainly on the way, but a little uncertainty as to where the coldest of the air will go. it could go further towards the south or right across the uk, but the indication is that temperatures next week across many parts of the country will stay below freezing during the course of the day. well below freezing at night. and there is snow on the way, we arejust night. and there is snow on the way, we are just not sure when and where. this is bbc news.
