this is bbc news. the headlines... storm emma meets the beast from the east and wreaks chaos across the uk — tonight more than 13,000 customers are without power in the south west of england, south wales and the midlands. at least 3,500 drivers were stranded on the m62 across the pennines last night, with more roads remaining closed throughout today. this is a problem area and this is particularly bad. disruption to realnetworks, passengers had to spend the night on trains, south eastern, south—western and scotrail have advised people not to travel on their routes. we will have the latest from across the uk. theresa may sounds a note of pragmatism in a major speech outlining the sort of deal she wants with the eu after brexit. finally we both have to face the fact that this is a negotiation and neither of us can have exactly what we want.
8:01 pm
a man is convicted of attempted murder after trying to run over a muslim woman — the court hears that she was targeted because she was wearing a headscarf. beating the odds to say, i do. this might be atrocious weather and having to be rescued by farmers, but legging:- ‘“ lg; tears-2.4 kzséz—z-eg—z !—..--‘: 3,35; 5 have white 3241; ir: tagginggfgmf . to jennifer russian 2”??? ca}... ‘iilf. what made : , ., what made : that , ii; other 7” 7 wv is; other 7” 7 7 releases in the ; rev|ew... i releases in the snow and freezing temperatures have caused disruption once again over most of the uk as two storms —
8:02 pm
storm emma and the beast from the east — collided over britain. thousands of schools remained closed today while icy roads led to accidents and long hold—ups crashes. train services and flights were also badly hit once more. the m62 across the pennines is still shut — at one point at least 3,500 cars were stuck on it in the snow and hundreds of drivers were forced to shelter in community centres. the military has been called in around the uk to help. but the most severe red weather warnings — meaning there's a threat to life — have now been lifted. yellow warnings remain in place for much of the uk. with snow and ice causing serious problems in scotland and the south west of england. there's been major disruption to transport with over 1,200 flights cancelled. rail companies are running reduced services with many ending services early this evening.
8:03 pm
south eastern trains has told passengers not to travel at all. and heavy snow has closed several key routes on the road network. we'll bring you the picture from around the country — beginning with this report from danny savage. 0ne driver filmed this early today. most had been moved by this morning but hundreds were taken to emergency shelters. we landed in manchester airport about two o'clock yesterday and we've been trying to get home since then. i've been stuck 12 hours, since last night, ten o'clock. from yorkshire to the scottish border, nearly every route linking east and west was closed.
8:04 pm
but it's been shut for days. it probably won't open for days yet. and it's all because of these gale force winds just blowing the snow constantly across the carriageway. police are patrolling the roads to discourage people from ignoring the closures. these conditions are some of the worst i've seen for many years. the a66 is always a problem area but today this is particularly bad. trying to get this open is impossible at the moment. in hampshire, the 17.05 waterloo to weymouth train last night unintentionally turned into a sleeper service. passengers were stuck on board for 13 hours as the train lost power. the heating then failed in the freezing conditions. they managed to restore power so we had lights, but we had no heating, and things like the buffet car had run out of food and drink earlier in the evening.
8:05 pm
so it was a pretty cold night. in shropshire, huge snowdrifts blocked country roads, as an army of farmers set out across britain to try and clear them. neighbouring worcestershire also saw several inches of snow. across the border into wales, three people were rescued after getting buried by drifts in their car near cowbridge. they had to sound their horn to guide searchers in. and in ebbw vale, firefighters were called in to dig their way into this house. back in the high pennines, keeping livestock fed was a priority. keeping them watered, though, is a problem. the water's frozen, that's the main thing, in the house and out of the house. sojust watering animals is a big chore at the minute. trying to feed up and get to the sheep that are three miles away, just trying to get there is fun and games at the minute, really. delivering supplies by any means possible will be normality in much of britain this weekend. there's no obvious sign of a thaw yet.
8:06 pm
danny savage, bbc news. large parts of wales have been badly hit by sub—zero temperatures and heavy snowfalls over the last 48 hours. cardiff and the valleys bore the brunt today. kate morgan reports. after more than 15 hours trapped in the car and under several feet of snow, three people were rescued through the boot. the vale of glamorgan saw 51 centimetres of snow overnight, the deepest in the uk. this was the scene that greeted one homeowner. 0pening opening the front door in barry. there were snow drifts as tall as houses in gwent. thousands of homes were without power at one stage. public transport was brought to a standstill and more than 1,100 schools closed for a second day. although most stayed at home, listening to advice not to travel until essential. here at the hospital, workers busy clearing snow.
8:07 pm
many routine operations had been cancelled across the country as nhs staff tried to keep services going. it is important to recognise that the public should use the many different sources of information they have on the internet and choosing well to actually consider whether they need to come to hospital. that is not only now but over the next few days when we will undoubtedly see an increase in activity in demand for our health services and we want to deal with the sickest patients who need our attention. the welsh ambulance service has been calling on volunteers like dan peterson, who has a 4x4 and spent hours this morning driving staff to work. he starts again tonight. someone needed a lift this morning to get into itu at 6:30am for a 7am shift change so we went to pick her up and we would pick her up in thornhill road, and by the time we went to pick the lady up, we had already picked up three other nurses on the way in,
8:08 pm
trudging through the snow. the snow kept falling outside this cardiff care home but a hot meal kept residents warm inside. hello, dh, how are you? staff have been sleeping here between shifts because of the difficulty of travelling to and from work. the manager arrived for work this morning but does not know when it will end. i have come into work with my bag. we do not know what the weather will do. i am ensuring that i have got the staff in. my staff have been fantastic, they are working long hours, staying overnight. elsewhere, cardiff airport was closed after all flights were cancelled. tonight there is still major disruption and dangerous conditions on the road, but for those with nowhere to go and time on their hands, for now, they are making the most of this extraordinary weather. the extreme weather has affected emergency teams — with south western ambulance service
8:09 pm
telling people not to call unless there is a threat to life. across the uk, many doctors, nurses and support staff have walked through snow and ice in an attempt to ease the pressure on services. from the royal devon and exeter hospital, jon kay reports. this is the road to exeter‘s main hospital, serving nearly half a million people. how are you getting on? in a&e, eight—year—old anna has come off her sledge. have you got a headache now? are you hungry at all? and she might need a scan. her doctor is one of many who have struggled into work. she should be fine. 0k, great, thank you. how did you get in? i cycled on a mountain bike, that's about five miles, there was a lot of pushing, just trying to get a bit of traction in that snow. junior doctor chris is helping debbie who has slipped on the ice. wait until you hear about his journey to work. i walked about ten miles
8:10 pm
from exmouth into hospital. and then you're going to have to walk ten miles back? yes. just like last night. did it cross your mind to call in and say, i can't make it today, i'm going to have a snow day? no. a0 staff slept in the hospital overnight after a critical incident was declared here. phil also stayed over. he couldn't move his iced—up car after visiting his wife on the surgical ward. more than 100 relatives were given a place to sleep. it's been absolutely fantastic. i can't thank the people enough. could not have wished for a better stay. you make it sound like a hotel! well, it is. no trafficjams in this city today, but emergency crews have struggled to reach casualties. south western ambulance say only call 999 if it is life—threatening. among the walking wounded, plenty of breaks, sprains, and cuts, most of them weather—related. pete fell in the snow.
8:11 pm
it could have been much worse. there are other people in here who have had a lot more incidents than i have. after a tough winter and an exhausting 48 hours, there are more weather challenges to come. you are local, aren't you? the hospital's chief nurse now has to find extra staff for the next few days. we are calling out now for registered nurses in particular. if they are able to get here, could they come? particularly this weekend so we can get through the weekend. back in casualty, anna's making progress after her sledging accident. her dad is a localfarmer and tonight he will be clearing roads with his tractor so the hospital can keep running. john kay, bbc news, exeter. 0n the rail networks some train companies, including south eastern, south western and scotrail have advised people not to travel on their routes. there are also cancellations at major uk airports, including heathrow.
8:12 pm
0ur transport correspondent, victoria fritz, spoke to us earlier from london waterloo station. when it comes to trains, 26 out of 27 train companies are operating severely disrupted lines, including the ones that go in and out of here at london waterloo, europe's busiest station. now, lots of train companies have been saying to people, do not travel unless it's absolutely essential. southeastern, which operates out of london waterloo east, are saying do not travel — it's a result of freezing rain which then turns to ice on the conductor rails that means that it can't connect to the power for the trains. for southwestern services that will be leaving behind me, they say that they are trying to wind up services by 8pm this evening. the station will close after the last service, which is 9:45pm. when it comes to flights, this is the worst day for flight cancellations that we've seen all week. more than 1200 flights had been cancelled across the uk and ireland.
8:13 pm
heathrow — the majority of them. we know now that birmingham has temporarily suspended flights and that the runway at london city is currently closed. although lots of uk airports remain open, that is a severely disrupted service right across the airport and train network. it has been disruption to train services near lewisham in the south—east after people were found trespassing on the tracks. 0ur correspondent is with me. what has been happening? this is developing situation but it seems that at least four trains have become stuck close to lewisham station in south—east london and these are packed trains with hundreds of people on board withzhundreds of people onboard train i this withzhundreds of people onboard train this a withzhundreds of people onboard tra people s a withzhundreds of people onboard tra people stuck - a withzhundreds of people onboard tra people stuck in i a i trains withzhundreds of people onboard

8:15 pm
assistance at lewisham station because of what they called the ongoing major disruption with a number of trains trapped in the area. i have seen pictures of lewisham station and there are lots of blue lights so certainly british transport police and a lot of the emergency services are the station. to manage this decamping - the has been just the tha the $7 7” ghee—g? must on—board? on-board? - can ell—iii! stay on-board? you can imagine the ffszf when i stay on-board? you can imagine the z—ej; when you can see the frustration. when'yoo'carrsee'the ' ' platform. the frustration. when'you'oarrsee'the ' ' platform. the message is - stay tw% the tw% on the tzaioguoless authodsecthg. .. .. the driver on the tzaihguhless authorisecthg, .. .. the driver to leave. and that may be the driver to leave. and that may be the case. it is unclear. it might be that south eastern has decided that with so many leaving the trains, they have stopped the power and it is safe to leave. but in most circumstances, in all circumstances,
8:16 pm
stay on the train unless told otherwise. thank you for that. theresa may has outlined her vision of britain's future relationship with the european union. she repeated the uk would not be part of the eu's single market or customs union and said both sides would have to accept ‘hard facts' and that no one will get everything they want. she also warned that the uk would have to pay money into some eu agencies to maintain access to them. 0ur political editor, laura kuenssberg, was watching the prime minister's speech. roll up, roll up. a hot ticket for a certain kind of audience. can you unite the party? that will affect us all; , f f" and it'matters'to'her survival; too: with controversy never far away. the first message, no more promises after brexit, we can have it all, to trade just as we do now or be completely free from
8:17 pm
the european courts. i want to be straight with people because the reality is that we all need to face up to some hard facts. we are leaving the single market. life is going to be different. access each other‘s markets will be less than it is now, so we need to strike a new balance, but we will not accept the rights of canada and the obligations of norway. even after we have left the jurisdiction of the european court ofjustice, eu law and the decisions of the ecj will continue to affect us. out of the single market and the customs union, she confirmed, yet no new answer to one of the hardest parts. we have been clear all along that we don't want to go back to a hard border in ireland. we've ruled out any physical infrastructure at the border or any related checks and controls. but it's not good enough to say we won't introduce a hard border if the eu forces ireland to do it,
8:18 pm
that is down to them. we chose to leave and we have a responsibility to find a solution. we cannot do it alone. it is for all of us to work together. more details on how she wants much of the economy to stay closer to the eu, but the prime minister wants the right to pick and choose when and how. the commission has suggested that the only option available to the uk is an off—the—shelf model. we both need to face the fact that this is a negotiation and neither of us can have exactly what we want. the fact is, every free trade agreement has varying market access depending on the respective interest of the countries involved. if this is cherry picking, then every trade arrangement is cherry picking. last, an answer to claims her plans are too vague and unreal. my message to our friends in europe is clear.
8:19 pm
we know what we want. we understand your principles. we have a shared interest in getting this right. so let's get on with it. thank you. applause do you accept now that we cannot have it all as we leave? secondly, you have outlined today you want to pick and mix even though the eu is repeatedly rejecting that approach. what is it do you think you can say to your eu leaders that will actually change their minds? i'm confident as we sit down together we will be able to show that mutual interest, that mutual benefit, from the proposals i have put forward. after weeks of internal tory wrangling, the prime minister has made gathered tory grandees content. this is about finding a way through that will work for everybody. why have you spent so long saying we could have everything?
8:20 pm
you said we could have the same benefits? i said that is the aspiration. what were aiming at here, and what the pm said clearly, is that we want to have a tariff—free arrangement. we want to have mutual recognition. all those things, not just in our interest, they are in europe's interest and that is why we will get them. what happens the european union says no? i think the invitation that was made through the speech of the pm was to apply a cool head to some very important, mutual problems, but also opportunities. an outbreak of tory unity? the foreign secretary was grounded by snow but gave a thumbs up and brexiteers and remainers followed suit, for now. others, like the bank of england governor, less keen to give their verdict. the opposition, unimpressed. there is yet more confusion on the road to complications. what we need is a set of objections which means we can
8:21 pm
protectjobs in this country. they want more detail and realism. that could make a difference to the next steps of this lengthy tangle. but there are plenty of audiences making demands of theresa may, who will still demand yet more. sport now and a full round—up, from the bbc sport centre. katarina johnson—thompson has won the gold—medal at the indoor athletics championships in birmingham. she was leading standings in the final discipline, 800 metres, after a very good long jump 800 metres, after a very good long jump and before that she had thrown her personal best in the shot put. her biggest event. these are live pictures on bbc two. from the

women's 800 metres. the final event of the pentathlon. which is the indoor version of the heptathlon, the outdoor multisport event. she had no two seconds in hand over her nearest rival. she went on to win the 800 metres in style and therefore winning her first world title. with some ease. she has been talked about as the newjessica ennis—hill. she has disappointed that lots of major events. she has her first world title. katarina johnson—thompson. i have not had a chance to celebrate. i try to prepare for
8:23 pm
today. laura muir has qualified for the 1500m finals tomorrow. she finished second in the 1500 heats behind genzebe dibaba, less than 2a hours after both those athletes got a place on the podium in the 3000 metres, but muir will have to wait until after the final in this event tomorrow to celebrate her bronze. i need to put this on hold until the chubb insurance. having had that medal in my pocket, already. great britain have added another medal on day three of the world track cycling championship in apeldoorn in the netherlands. mark stewart took bronze in the men's points race which is over 160 laps. australia's cameron meyer won gold with home riderjan willem van schip took silver. britain now have four medals — one gold, two silvers and stewa rt‘s — one gold, two silvers and stewart's bronze. — one gold, two silvers and stewa rt‘s bronze. it's — one gold, two silvers and stewart's bronze. it's been a difficult evening for elinor barker. earlier the briton was caught up in this crash during the elimination race in the women's omnium. she went into the fourth and final event, the points race, in the bronze medal position, but couldn't manage to hold on to it, finishing sixth overall just a hold on to it, finishing sixth overalljust a nine points off a medal. kirsten vild took gold for the netherlands. the british gymnast claudia fragapanne is out of next month's commonwealth games. the four time gold medallist at the last games in glasgow has snapped her achilles tendon. fragapanne says she's heartbroken and doesn't know

when she'll be competing again. this was a treat she sent earlier, i was on the floor and felt something going on my take—off. ifelt so upset and heartbroken and i don't know when i will compete again but i have the greatest people around me to help me recover mentally and physically. this will not be the end, i will come back stronger. football... west bromwich albion manager alan pardew has responded to rumours of dressing room unrest by saying — "it's a good thing" and that "it's to be expected under the circumstances". well, west brom have been going through a turbulent time recently, bottom of the table, their chairman and chief executive were dismissed, four players had to apologise for misbehaving in barcelona and then last week the tea m barcelona and then last week the team were booed—off after losing to huddersfield in the premier league. really made it more difficult because of barcelona and the spotlight on ourselves. in terms of professionalism and everything else going on but the stuff from the dressing room on saturday was
8:25 pm
disappointing because that should stay in the dressing room but we did have drug stay in the dressing room but we did have d rug testers stay in the dressing room but we did have drug testers and it was hard... people perhaps not normally associated with that in the dressing room. but i don't know what the fans, iam room. but i don't know what the fans, i am not sure room. but i don't know what the fans, iam not sure if room. but i don't know what the fans, i am not sure if they will be disappointed because i think, what would they expect from us? not to have words or conflict after a performance like that? there's one game in the championship tonight between two big clubs — middlesbrough v leeds with both teams bidding to get into the play off places. middlesbrough are two doles out, both coming from patrick ba mford and still a doles out, both coming from patrick bamford and still a few minutes until half—time. barry hawkins eased into the semi—finals of snooker‘s welsh 0pen. into the semi—finals of snooker‘s welsh open. the englishman beat china's yan bingtao five frames to one in cardiff, knocking in a break of 141 one in cardiff, knocking in a break of 1111 as he did so. hawkinsjoins the world number 58, thailand's noppon saengkham in the last four. meanwhille there's a potentially
8:26 pm
cracking quarterfinal going on between three time winner ronnie 0'sullivan and four time winnerjohn higgins — both in excellent form. these other live pictures from cardiff. john higgins is two frames to just cardiff. john higgins is two frames tojust one cardiff. john higgins is two frames to just one up. definitely worth watching on the website. that is all from me but we will have a lot more on sports day at 10:30pm. thank you very much. the canadian prime minister, justin trudeau, has warned of serious disruption if donald trump goes ahead with steep tariffs on steel and aluminium imports. it's the latest in a series of warnings to president trump, who says america would easily win a trade war. the european commission president, jean—claude juncker, said the eu was ready to show it could react in kind. president trump tweeted that rather than losing billions of dollars in its dealings with virtually every trading partner, america would easily win a trade war. i'm joined by bloomberg's economic policy editor, sarah mcgregor, from our washington studio. good evening. what do you think of a
8:27 pm
president trump is threatening?” think there are two things to look forward to hear. if there is going to be exclusions and retaliation. 0n exclusions, we heard today from the commerce secretary, wilbur ross, who was responsible for preparing this report that's it imports of steel and aluminium post a security threat and aluminium post a security threat and he said president trump men yesterday it would be all steel and aluminium imports facing the terrorists but if various lobbying effo rts terrorists but if various lobbying efforts by governments and industry groups in the next week before trump says he will sign this order, if they have any impact and trump claws back and does not do any broad terror. and all retaliation, eu commissioner has had even more pointed remarks recently, saying they might target harley davidson, levi strauss, these iconic american
8:28 pm
brands, sending a very tough message. this is jean-claude juncker, on german television, will put tariffs on harley davidson, urban and blue jeans, put tariffs on harley davidson, urban and bluejeans, levi's, because we would like a reasonable relationship with the united states but recently cannot put our head in the sand. that is a kind of language you might respect —— expect in retaliation but it does not mean any of this will actually happen, does it? trump has campaigned on his trade message of getting tough and what we saw in the markets yesterday isa what we saw in the markets yesterday is a clear example of markets all over the world, skidding in reaction to the news and they have levelled again and there is a feeling amongst investors and governments, cooler heads might prevail and trump, as before, might walk back on some of this tough talking when it comes to signing the order so there is some gardeners. we have not heard much bombast from china, which is the
8:29 pm
target of these talents. there is a lot of wait and see, to see what goes through next week. if it even happens next week or is delayed further. politically, it is consistent to what donald trump said as he campaigned? it would certainly appeal to a lot of people in what is known as a rust belt who voted for him? absolutely. we have congressional mid—term is coming up and that will play well in the states but on the other hand, some of the loudest critics of these measures have been members of his own republican party. they think this will spark trade wars and it could potentially raise the cost, as you might imagine, of steel and aluminium, they are in a lot of consumer goods in america, for example, car manufacturing is, if thatis example, car manufacturing is, if that is an important industry in your state, they will be upset. there will be a lot of pressure to bear now that trump has publicly made known that this is his intention and everybody will be trying to have their say. in this
8:30 pm
last—ditch effort. in terms of damage, if it does get to the point that some sort of retaliatory action goes back and forth, how much damage do you think that will do, given the president has made it abundantly clear in the last few hours that there was a trade war, he thinks america would win easily? trump started this investigation under us law, section 232, giving him the power, if imports are threatening national security, to go ahead with ta riffs national security, to go ahead with tariffs and the wto, these fights could play out there. right now, a lot of what is happening is in the realm of the law. when we get into trademark, if there is tit—for—tat and things start happening outside of the global trading rules, but there is no doubt this has raised tensions and has escalated things, especially with china. there is no
8:31 pm
formal dialogue with china any more andi formal dialogue with china any more and i think the signals are getting crossed and things are blown out of proportion, that is a lot higher in that context. everybody has their eyes open. thank you very much for coming on at in washington. breaking news in hertfordshire, hertfordshire police have just breaking news in hertfordshire, hertfordshire police havejust been telling us that around 100 cars are currently stuck on the a505 between luton and kitchen. motorists are advised to stay with their vehicles and not to call police unless they are in an emergency other than the one that they are already in. they are advising motorists to please avoid the area. that is in hertfordshire, a particular stretch on the a505, that is around luton.
