will be in early may england. this will be in early may bank holiday record, breaking the previous record of 2a degrees, which was reached in hampshire back in i999. was reached in hampshire back in 1999. now, into tuesday. we start to see some subtle changes. this area of low pressure begins to push off. their week—old front is to the western side of the uk. the high pressure holds on further east. it really will be an east— west split. fine and sunny for much of the country. this week weather to bring some rain to northern ireland and western scotland, maybe the odd spot in north—west england. further south, no more than a band of cloud which will thin and break. so another nice day in the east of england, even a hot day, some places could get up to 28. further west it will be cooler. into wednesday, the next area of low pressure will have morkel. it is going to bring stronger winds, particularly across western scotland, northern ireland, and much more active weather fronts. again, it will be a nice, fine start. outbreaks of pretty heavy rain pushing into northern ireland and the west of scotland as the day wears on. the best of the sunny
11:31 pm

11:32 pm
with me are the broadcaster, john stapleton and the journalist and author, yasmin alibhai—brown. most of tomorrow's front pages are in,starting with — the observer which leads with allegations that aides to us president donald trump hired a spy firm to "dig for dirt" on key obama administration figures who negotiated the iran peace deal. "fighting for his life" — the daily star on former manchester united manager sir alex ferguson, who they say is in hospital after suffering a bleed to the brain. the sun also lead with the health of 76 year old sir alex ferguson, said to be in a coma after a brain haemorrhage the sunday times focuses on britain's knife crime statistics and has analysed the latest home office figures. the paper also cover the health of sir alex ferguson. the mail on sunday focuses on allegations about relatives of the new home secretary sajid javid. "brexiteers threaten may with open revolt" says the sunday telegraph — if she ignores their objections
11:33 pm
to her favoured plan for a customs deal with the eu. so let's begin. brexiteers threaten in may with open revolt. we had quite mutterings and 110w revolt. we had quite mutterings and now open mutterings. the headline looks dramatic. i'm not sure if it ta kes looks dramatic. i'm not sure if it takes it a great deal further, looks dramatic. i'm not sure if it takes it a great dealfurther, this story. theresa may apparently in danger of being publicly denounced by those who object to her halfway house on brexit. they are threatening to publicly denounce her. i do think you will see mass walkouts but neither will they take this sitting down. more evidence of the split within the government on
11:34 pm
where to go. they also make the point that time is not on her side. it is taking longer and longer. i suspect it reflect the views of many people i talk to in this country who just say, come on, let's get on with it. it is not in this report but there is another whole thing developing of tory rebels on the other side who might gang up with some labour remainers to support what the lords amendments have suggested. what is interesting is this thing they have come up with which to raise a once, a maximum facilitation arrangement which is where you would collect... that's what the brexiteers want. that's what the brexiteers want. that's what i'm saying. they have given it a labeland what i'm saying. they have given it a label and there is a wonderful cartoon which must be mentioned where a man is asking a woman to marry him. what about a partnership?
11:35 pm
as union? but it's horrible, it is absolutely horrible. the endless bickering that is going on. they are split. the labour party will be saying it. the nation is split and there is no getting away from it. that's where we are. let's look at the labour story. it is on the front page of the observer. jeremy corbyn accused of cowardice. yeah. they accused of cowardice. yeah. they accuse him of that, according to this observer piece because they haven't supported his attempts to delay things in the lords. all of this on the back of the local election results which were seen by some anyway as not very effective as far as labour is concerned. i think
11:36 pm
it's slightly unfair. labour started out from a high watermark. maybe they raised the levels of expectations too high and thought they would get these various councils in london and they didn't. on the other hand, if you can't do better than that up against a government who have suffered this many setbacks, maybe they aren't much of a chance. alex campbell himself doesn't have very record himself. i think the brexit spokesman for labour does his best to bring some clarification commitment that actually we need jeremy corbyn now to do his duty and come out with a clear statement. because this is a mess which can only be clarified when leadership...
11:37 pm
and i think that this is where its cable has been clear. i am not a lib dem that he has been clear on where his party stands. maybe that's why the lib dems have more council seats than anybody else. let's let that rest. let's go to the front page of the sun. a story we have been reporting on all evening, sir alex ferguson. a big shock for the whole world, particularly sand. we saw him on the pitch of old trafford during his arch old enemy arsene wenger a trophy. sir alex was looking in great shape but we hear this morning he had this brain haemorrhage, he was rushed to hospital and now being treated. they say it has gone well but he will need time. considerable time, to recuperate. tributes have flown in. gary lineker, et cetera.
11:38 pm
he remains the best manager britain has ever scene. 38 trophies, sensational. a tough man. perhaps not surprising he has had this issue, his lifestyle, getting to work at 7am et cetera. he is only 76, hopefully he will pull through. everybody wishes him a speedy recovery. a big three pages on the new home secretary. all are not on him but on his family. on his two uncles, allegedly, says the mail on sunday, who have been accused of running a cash for these is a scam, targeting migrants who want to get into written from pakistan. it has become increasingly difficult even
11:39 pm
if you have all of your papers. this isa if you have all of your papers. this is a hostile environment, notjust to the windrush generation. they took money, it is alleged, one said he took a tractor. one said he paid money. it is interesting, it is a story. it is the home secretary now dealing with this controversial, difficult immigration issue but three pages... ? and there is no allegations that sergeant david himself... he has denied it. a picture of him and his family at a wedding in pakistan. i do know what
11:40 pm
is going on. that has nothing to do with it. they quote three people who say they were effectively conned by these chaps but that, as far as i can see, is the only evidence and three pages seems a lot. even though, one has two confessed, the home secretary, related to anybody like this, it is a story. i am critical of sajid javid but this seems a little bit... this is a sunday paper also if they have more, we will only find out in a week's time. we have had no response yet from the home secretary himself. spokesman on the half of the home secretary says he denies it. splendid. let's move on to the sunday times. knife crime which we we re sunday times. knife crime which we were reporting in great detail, a few weeks ago. the sunday times have
11:41 pm
done a different analysis. few weeks ago. the sunday times have done a different analysislj few weeks ago. the sunday times have done a different analysis. i read it inch rope. it says the knife crime has spread from the cities to the shires. so what? when you read down, it is concerning, the evidence. it is up 20% in london over the last three years but in some home counties, increase since 2014 are far steeper. knife crime in hertfordshire upward 100 and 50%. 229 incidents up to 550. some of them are up to 86%. those are worrying statistics. particularly for people that live in those errors. apparently a lot of it is funnelled from big cities like london and manchester and liverpool and a lot of it is drug—related, too. this is it. i think we are not going to solve the knife crime issue unless we really now work on a more
11:42 pm
sensible rational drug policy for this country. it has been a political football for far too long. if it was decriminalised. i never thought i would say that, i was against it probably for most of my life. i think i can now see, once it isa crime, life. i think i can now see, once it is a crime, that's when you get the underground activity and the violence. another chance for donald trump... let's go to a donald trump story and back to the observer. complicated headline. trump team hired dirty operations. his aides hired dirty operations. his aides hired israeli private intelligence agents to dig up dirt on the obama administration who were doing a deal with around who would restrict its
11:43 pm
nuclear programme in return for countries like the us and the uk easing up armed sanctions. it illustrates not just the easing up armed sanctions. it illustrates notjust the desperation of donald trump and benjamin netanyahu of donald trump and benjamin neta nyahu not just to of donald trump and benjamin netanyahu notjust to discredit of donald trump and benjamin netanyahu not just to discredit the deal but to undermine it completely. whether it is true or not, we don't know. one has to assume. a former high—ranking british diplomat who has a lot of experience with international peace agreements he wanted to be anonymous says, it's bloody outrageous to do this. the whole point of negotiations is not to play dirty tricks. i'm really frightened that trump and the current administration in israel is pushing for a conflict which is, you know, we already have got syria which is like a mini world war. we
11:44 pm
don't want another theatre of war. we certainly don't. i will stop you there just to get the front of the sunday express. can ijust there just to get the front of the sunday express. can i just say, there just to get the front of the sunday express. can ijust say, nice picture. lovely picture. it will sell a lot of copies. it will get them lots of money. it's great. thank you both very much indeed. that is it for the papers this all. coming up next, it's the film review. hello, and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases as ever is mark kermode. good to see you again, mark.
