saying, the resignation of the country's deputy prime minister barnabyjoyce. he has been accused of sexual harassment, which he denies. the independent newspaper is looking at how brexitise affecting migration to the uk. they say uncertainty is fewer european citizens to move to britain and more to leave. still in the uk, the times is reporting that oxfam gb is now barred from operating in haiti. the decision comes a fortnight after claims emerge that charities up high prostitute after the 2010 earthquake. the haitian government says a final decision on the charity's right to operate there would be made in a couple of months. and the gulf news has announced that saudi arabia is planning to spend $64 billion saudi arabia is planning to spend $61; billion on its entertainment sector. that includes lifting a decades long ban on cinemas, 300 will be opening in the country by 2030. they also have an 0pera will be opening in the country by 2030. they also have an opera house in the plans. so let's begin. with me is priya lakhani, founder and ceo of century tech,

a uk based education technology platform. to start on the story which fox is focusing on, it is difficult to know how this story can turn again, the idea that an armed deputy was there, even outside the building for sometime. he was stationed there, it was hisjob. it is now increasing the list of failings in this case because we have the fbi that worked it about the suspect, we had 23 calls go into this particular sheriffs office about the suspect and they had someone stationed outside. i have one story that he stood in place, but never went in to do hisjob which is stood in place, but never went in to do his job which is to confront the killer and kill the killer. four minutes outside the building. and the other one was that he took cover. this also comes of that bank —— the backs of president trump's

remarks that teachers should be armed. 17,000 teachers armed with guns, that is nearly the size of the russian army and i spent every day in schools and it is just —— it is just making that environment even more unsafe. it is ludicrous and this is coming off the back of him suggesting a £5 billion drop in education funding. ludicrous simply because of the scale of what is involved. also, the accident that happened. some of the stories we get on us “— happened. some of the stories we get on us —— not mass shootings, some art that a child gets a hold of a gun and plays with it. in a classroom of a going to do? being trained with a gun in a classroom is not simply here is how to fire it, it is how do you use it, where to use it. there are all of these issues and it is so far—fetched. i think it is a distraction. this is a

huge distraction because you have stu d e nts huge distraction because you have students lobbying for a worthwhile cause and this suggestion is just so ludicrous that what happens is people get distracted by it and they don't focus on what students are after, which are changes in gun laws. one of the interesting points is that if a deputy doesn't draw the gun, one wonders... exactly is that the —— exactly. gun, one wonders... exactly is that the -- exactly. let's move on to the abc, focusing as they would on barnabyjoyce, abc, focusing as they would on barnaby joyce, whose time abc, focusing as they would on barnabyjoyce, whose time is up, it feels. he has had quite a time of things. here he is, he has a child on the way with his new girlfriend, he has left his family. now he has allegations, which he flatly dull eyes —— denies, now he is stepping down the. four children in his

family, 21 year long marriage. 0ne of the crucial issues here that the world is looking at is some of the trips he has taken. he has taken trips, this is speculation, about what he was spending taxpayers money on when he took the strips and what he was doing with the staffs, carss park that he has now partnered with. —— staff. now he has stepped down and they have taken a stand against this but it is interesting watching the stories unfold, you had michael fallon in the uk. a defence secretary. inappropriate behaviour. nothing more. what we are seeing is this cascading of this issue throughout the world and it was this harvey weinstein story that really start of this campaign and it is just not ending. it is great to clea n just not ending. it is great to clean up all of these organisations and really promote the right behaviour. there has obviously been a long debate about where public and

private overlap and if you have a public role, a minister or an mp, then your private matters are public. if you are in france it is a different approach. has a gone for the time being? it has always been a debate. my former life as a media barrister, it is what is in the public interest and what are the public interest and what are the public interested in. it is a huge debate but when you put yourself out there as a role model that is where there as a role model that is where the line is very blurred because people are looking up to you and are voting for you and it is notjust about your politics, it is about how you stand. this is somebody who campaigned on family values, let's not forget that is an issue that he has taken up and that he is not obviously the exemplary case here. in his case, obviously, it was right to step down. we are seeing this continue to unfold and i don't think in the next few months it will get any simpler, really, in terms of the

stories we will say. some will say it was right for him to be pushed off. probably the right term. let's move on to brexit. brexit is a big story in any case, life after britain from brussels perspective or indeed some unity breaking out, somebody described it as, with the cabinet. the reality is in the statistics, that will be the message to independence. net migration is falling, iam to independence. net migration is falling, i am glad we chose to talk about it like this, rather than what was said on the daily express. we have got a net decrease in migration, obviously people coming to look for work in uk is falling and the leaving is rising and we are saying that brexit is the course of this. —— caused. non—eu migration is 110w this. —— caused. non—eu migration is now larger than eu migration. this. —— caused. non—eu migration is now largerthan eu migration. so, really, the discussion is what is

the impact on the economy? i run an artificial intelligence business in education and a third are from the eu, so there are a huge skill sets that we will not be a good feel and we know that construction, the nhs and social care are four sectors that rely on migrants. we know that gdp per capita in the uk has increased as a result of eu migrants, as has national income. it is not where the government wants to be. we are going to have to also realise the reality of the impact of this in the future and what is going to do to the uk? and so many people they will be saying that is why we wa nted they will be saying that is why we wanted exit as an issue because it is the balance we are looking for in britain. that have a quick look at the thais. it is 0xfam again. actually banned by the haitian government from doing its work. this is 0xfam gb. government from doing its work. this is oxfam gb. yes, they account for a

third of the charities £11 million projects in the count, country. the rest of oxfam is in haiti and this isa rest of oxfam is in haiti and this is a two—month investigation. they will investigate what happened and make a decision in a couple of months time. sorry to interrupt, i suppose it is a question about will the aid come to oxfam with suspensions like this? we have falling donors, donations have been falling donors, donations have been falling with save the children, 0xfa m falling with save the children, 0xfam and unicef, all hit by similar themes of scandals. the real shame if the people who suffer at the end are actually the haitians, who have been affected eye natural disasters. -- via. been affected eye natural disasters. —— via. it is very sad but it is about cleaning up the act of all of these. —— by. is really shocking. —— it is. that have a quick look at saudi arabia. when they make a decision, they make it big. $61;

billion to be spent on entertainment over ten years. everytime i have sat at this desk we have had a story about somewhere in the uae cup a huge investment. this is such a bold move. and 0pera huge investment. this is such a bold move. and opera house, 300 cinemas, pa rt move. and opera house, 300 cinemas, part of their vision in 2030. 5000 events in the coming year. 5000 including marine five, cirque du soleil. i think they are up for the time, really. and get everybody back from dubai, it seems to be saying. we will leave it there. thank you so much. thanks for watching the briefing, from me david eades, and the rest of the team, goodbye. hello there. we have been talking for several days now about how colder weather is on the way. over the next few days, i think you will really start to feel the effects of that colder air.

some of us have already seen a little bit of snow and as we get on into next week, there could well be more on the way as we increasingly tap into this bitterly cold pool of air currently sitting across siberia. but actually, you may well think it is cold enough already. certainly as we start friday morning with a widespread frost, you can see the blue colours on the chart indicating temperatures down below freezing — that is because skies have been clear overnight and that translates into sunny skies as we go on through the day on friday. some areas of cloud floating around as well, particularly across parts of england, but we could even see just the odd light shower here at times through the day. if we take a closer look at 3pm on our high resolution weather model, you can see large areas of clear skies expected, quite a lot of sunshine across scotland, northern ireland and north—west england. some extra cloud across the eastern side of england, but through the midlands

into wales and the south—west, it should be largely sunny through the afternoon with temperatures around five or six degrees. the wind is starting to strengthen, particularly in the south. that will continue into the weekend as this area of high pressure strengthens its grip across scandinavia, squeezing its way southwards, squeezing these strong easterly winds in our direction. saturday, a chilly feeling day, quite bright though. some good spells of sunshine around. some areas of cloud floating around here and there. temperatures on the thermometer, four, five, six degrees, but remember, the strength of the wind — it will feel a little colder than that. into sunday, more of the same essentially, but a greater chance at this stage that it will bring some cloud in from the north sea towards parts of eastern scotland, north—east england and that cloud could start to produce some snow flurries at this stage. quite a chilly feeling day, to say the least. as we get into the start of the new week, that is when we really begin to bring this very cold air sitting across siberia in our direction on this strong easterly wind. so, through monday and tuesday, temperatures will struggle.

the temperatures i show you here are the daytime highs — the absolute highs. temperatures for a good part will be lower than that and notice even by day somewhere like norwich will struggle to get above freezing. as we continue to tap into that colder air, there certainly is the chance for some snow in places through next week, very tough to predict exactly where at this stage — stay tuned to the forecast. hello, this is breakfast, with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. alarming new research links mistakes in patient medication to tens of thousands of deaths a year. as many as one in five drugs may be given out in error across england. the health secretary, jeremy hunt, calls the situation "appalling" and "totally preventable". good morning, it's friday the 23rd of february. also this morning:
