seem that way, but the with. it does seem that way, but the one thing you got to remember with russia is if you are shaking sticks they've got the bigger stick, and therein lies... how far can britain go with this very dangerous bear in the room? i want to, ifi may add two words. global support. the ft refers to that and thatjoint communique yesterday of germany, the us and france is very important and of course what the government, ministers have been doing in the un, british ambassador and the support of the us ambassador, that has all been extremely important at the un and also neto. and there are clearly more sanctions up theresa may's sleep and also we will see what the global support —— sleeve. these are very good intention and words and beginning of actions, but let's see what the russian response is. this could ratchet up so quickly. let's
10:46 pm
look at the daily mail. a betrayal beyond belief. this is following the trial of the man essonne —— i'm guilty of attempted murder after setting up that device on the tube train at person screen. we now know that he was part of the prevent programme which is supposed to be... the radicalising people. yes, the evidence that came out in court was that he told officials when he arrived in the uk two years ago that he had been kidnapped by isis and trained to kill by them. even claimed in court that actually it was a fabrication he concocted to persuade them that he needed to be given asylum. the issue here is what messages were passed onto given asylum. the issue here is what messages were passed on to the home office, the police, to the security services about this man who quite
10:47 pm
clearly, and a guilty verdict of the court which did not take very long, there is with judgement, court which did not take very long, there is withjudgement, he was planning mass murder. it's as simple as that. he put a bomb on a train which was a commuter train in rush—hour with as i know young children going to school, people going to work, indiscriminate murder it was on his mind. and he somehow slipped through the net. it's a legitimate question, you hear that his foster parents knew nothing. these are foster parents who had taken in dozens and dozens of children over the years. here they are asking for donations because they must be devastated. that bomb was made in their kitchen —— they are asking for explanations. they have this raid saturday morning at their house and they had no understanding what was going on. armed police turning up at your front door. he was busy at dover
10:48 pm
about to be arrested unbeknownst to him and the foster parents were in the house and the police did not know so they went the full scale of getting mornings outside. there he scary. -- very scary. it raises a lot of questions about the merits and pitfalls of the prevent programme, but as many commentators have said to us tonight it requires that individual to want to change, to wa nt that individual to want to change, to want to turn away from whatever attem pts to want to turn away from whatever atte m pts to to want to turn away from whatever attempts to brainwash them and be neighborly them have gone ahead. we are struggling a little bit, let me tell you. the reason you are looking at me rather than our gorgeous cast is that both of the screens are playing up and is not very nice for you to look at i'm afraid. sorry about that. try not to look at it too much. i will stick to the neighbours if we can. if i could check the timing from you in the gallery. seven minutes, 0k. let's move on and look at the express. page number two. we will not check
10:49 pm
the lloris at dover says grayling. this will come as a bit of a shock to the eu 27 that that after brexit, just come in, go out. there'll be no text. -- there'll be no checks. this is extraordinary. i watched your earlier interview. it seems that the transport secretary chris grayling have said that we do not check the lloris now, we will not check them in dover in the future. i'm clear it cannot happen. we will maintain a free—flowing border at dover. that sounds like an invitation to put anything on the loris. you don't just have nice people watching television. what happened to take back control. this is quite extraordinary. is he saying this is just from the british side which i think is what he's saying, because on the french side, this is the beginning of the rest of the ee you and the point is once you are in the
10:50 pm
eu and that is which occurs many things britain was not in, the euro, britain is not in. once the problem the french will have to carry these checks out. that has an economic impact, and it's incredibly complex to set up. politically when it looked like it is france's problem now. the mainland europe's problem now. the mainland europe's problem now. the mainland europe's problem now. the thing is, something i read today and i believe it was confirmed by the department of transport that it would appear that post brexit british driving licenses will not be valid in the european union and one presumes vice versa. unless there is a special permit. if you cannot legally drive in the uk, if this does happen and come to pass, you will have to show that permit. is a
10:51 pm
border check. there'll have to be some of checking. —— some degree of checking. someone said this is not true. there are checks, so i think that the union for the people who do actually checked lorries are going you don't even know what's going on at the border and you are the transport secretary. actually this shows the huge complexity of this and as for the frictionless border on northern ireland, that ain't over. no, it is not. the daily telegraph older workers face a tax hikes to boost nhs funding. is this a bit ofa hikes to boost nhs funding. is this a bit of a retread of their old national insurance increased which we re national insurance increased which were moved in and dropped? this morning i read this addition there would be a 1% potential increase in the national insurance to pay for extra spending in the health service. clearly there are different views within cabinet because this is
10:52 pm
another proposal suggesting that the burden of this extra money should come from older workers, particularly it says here pensioners working past 65. they should not have to pay, contributions, obviously they don't at this juncture. and it will raise £2 billion per year. of course the brexit argument about 350 million perweek brexit argument about 350 million per week which obviously we know they have shied away from even though it was on a very nice, shiny bus, is an expectation of many that voted for brexit that there would be additional funding and there's this argument of how will we find this funding and you are the easiest target? the older, more wealthy workers. they thought that was a brilliant idea when he came to think in the social cost that is in the manifesto. that was a disaster.m will not be long before someone claims age discrimination if they go ahead with this. absolutely. that is not sound like a viable plan, plus
10:53 pm
if one looks at the average age of a conservative voter, talk about shooting yourself in the foot. that was the problem last time. the ma nifesto was the problem last time. the manifesto is the same. staying with the telegraph, let's look at a photo on the front page, strong and cradle it says. theresa may holding a baby. which used to be standard fare for politicians around election time but i don't remember seeing theresa may... because as andrea leadsom rather carelessly shall we say put out, theresa may has not had children of her own so therefore she is the age of having grandchildren and she has not got them for that very reason so it's an image we have not seen at any point before. maybe we happen to us on secretary but i cannot remember because it was not literally then so you are not looking for it. a lovely picture. the baby is only six days old, a fine head of hairfor a tiny baby.
10:54 pm
that is one for the family album, taking in walking them. very sweet. quite extraordinary when you think sharon national security council on monday for two hours, going to the house making a statement and answering questions, tuesday ultimatum for the russians, all that planning, wednesday morning another one hour or more with the attorney general, defence minister, foreign secretary, all of that going on, go back to the not sanctions, unannounced visit to salisbury, quite extraordinary. this is a tonic, holding a baby.|j quite extraordinary. this is a tonic, holding a baby. i think so. she was genuinely engaged. returning to the jam on cream debate. the queen settled in for us. how so?|j think queen settled in for us. how so?” think there are two scones, some people say... gronk. i don't know. i
10:55 pm
have to admit, maybe from my irish grandmother, i put the cream, sacrilege... grandmother, i put the cream, sacrilege. .. wrong, wrong, grandmother, i put the cream, sacrilege... wrong, wrong, wrong. will you tell us which way? she does not look like she is improving. it looks like a photoshop picture.” clearly have blue blood somewhere in my dna because i like her majesty appear to have preferred jam first then green. this appears to be officially the royal way. we should all know this and take it to heart. many arejudging all know this and take it to heart. many are judging it all know this and take it to heart. many arejudging it bia—bi expression captured on this photograph. it looks like she is going with —— by the expression ca ptu red going with —— by the expression captured on the photograph. it looked like she likes the jam first and then the cream. isn't there a saying something about liking doorjamb? it is probably your cake and eat it. it could be a french expression we are not familiar with. anyway the queen settled it but it will not be settled. it will come back again to that age—old question.
10:56 pm
andrew on twitter wondered how far martin's conveyer belt of papers would reach tonight. i will start marking it like a long jump pit. i think that if a record. that is pretty impressive. benedict brought chocolate for us tonight so she went. —— so she wins. that's it for the papers tonight. 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.co.uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. of course it is french chocolate. what other kind would you bring? thank you, martin and benedicte. goodbye. see you later. hello, thank you forjoining me. when you right up to date with how we are seeing the weather for the
10:57 pm
course of the weekend. much of it will look like that in fact. even though some parts of the british isles especially in the south have seen temperatures above the seasonal norm. that will not last. it changes as early as saturday. i hope you managed to get out there and enjoy something that looks a little bit like that. i suspect over the next few days there will be some disruption to your travel plans as we encounter quite a deal of snow in some we encounter quite a deal of snow in some locations in some eyes as well. through the course of the night we will tumble the weather front away from the gritty seemingly gone into the southern half of britain and it will be snow rather than rainfall as it has been for many recent days simply because it's that cold. why is that change at last the low— pressure is that change at last the low—pressure that has driven the weather is often into the atlantic and we are under the influence of the big area of high pressure over scandinavia tracking and cold air from scandinavia picking up moisture across the north sea and what i'm showing you here is not cloud, this is just the snow showers and there
10:58 pm
are plenty of them as you see. what's going to be a bitterly cold day wherever you spent the last few days, whatever your temperatures, they will not have been that low. nor will they feel that bad, considering the strength of the wind. that's another feature we had to add in. some of the wind cuts around the eastern coast, 50—60 mph and here are the amber warnings from about four o'clock on saturday afternoon right through the night on into the first part of sunday morning. those wintry showers just keep on coming. as a consequence in some keep on coming. as a consequence in some locations, especially but not exclusively where we had those amber warnings, that is where the snowfall totals, the snow depth really begin totals, the snow depth really begin to mount up. that is why we are talking about disruptive weather. here we are sunday, something of a change in the perspective year. still bitterly cold as you will see by the showers eventually receding away toward the west, drier conditions moving in from the east. a wee bit of sunshine for some, won't do anything for the temperatures at all. as we get into
10:59 pm
the start of the new week we lose the start of the new week we lose the influence from scandinavia, our own area of high pressure with some maritime influenced so we are dragging in relatively milder air. this is how the next week looks, less cold, dry start and turns u nsettled less cold, dry start and turns unsettled later. this is bbc news. i'm martine croxall. the headlines at 11: police launch a murder inquiry after another russian exile is targeted in london — police say there is nothing yet to link his death to the attack on sergei skripal. police respond to a shooting east sussex tonight — the iraqi teenager, found guilty of the parsons green tube bombing, was on the government's anti—radicalisation programme at the time. and on newsnight, it's been britain versus russia this week. so is it a problem that this country has long welcomed many wealthy russians to london, including friends of putin? we'll ask, what is it that first attracted us to the oligarch billionaires?
