will get in the way yet again. on monday, the weather front of dragging here. temperatures should not be a concern at this stage if you do not like the heat. the many parts of scotland and northern and western isles, the weak weather front. this is where you begin to notice the temperatures beginning to rise. i am notice the temperatures beginning to rise. iam not notice the temperatures beginning to rise. i am not showing you the highest temperatures here by any means at all. once we get through to thursday, many spots will reach their peak and it could be around their peak and it could be around the 30 degrees mark. stay with us on that one. not all the facts and figures are with us. a lot of facts and computations to do. at 30 degrees could be the mark on thursday. hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment. first, the headlines:
11:31 pm
tens of thousands of people march through london to demand a vote on the final deal on the uk's departure from the eu. senior cabinet ministers stress the uk is still prepared to walk away from brexit talks without a deal. an explosion at an election rally in zimbabwe injures at least two senior government officials. the president escaped unharmed. new evidence of the devastating impact of plastic pollution on seabirds, with scientists going to extreme length to save chicks. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are robert fox, defence editorfor the london evening standard and rachel cunliffe, comment and features editor at city am.
11:32 pm
many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the mail on sunday reports that the defence secretary, gavin williamson, has warned the prime minister that if she doesn't commit an extra £20 billion on defence spending then he would vote down the next budget, which would effectively be a motion of no confidence in her. the sunday express leads on a letter that has been written by 60 mps, economists, and business leaders that urges theresa may to walk away from negotiations and not pay any "divorce bill" money if britain did not get a good trade deal at the eu council meeting next week. the sunday telegraph front page reports on the comments of the conservative mp oliver letwin, who says that in order to cope with the housing shortage, britain needs the same levels of organisation as when they were producing war—time aircraft in world war two. the sunday times reveals that the patients who lost their lives in the gosport hospital scandal, which could number 650, did so because of cheap faulty syringe pumps, which increased the negative
11:33 pm
reaction of the opiates wrongly prescribed to them. a nice selection of papers. we will start with the daily telegraph. ministers and officials invoking an effort to build spitfires. they say we need war spirit to fix the housing shortage. will we have another dunkirk? they used up all of the black and white movie imagery for this. this is a report from sir oliver, the fixer of david cameron,
11:34 pm
famously. he said you need to build more houses in an emergency programme or we face losing out in losing the election in 2022. how on earth he imagines we will get through to 2022. especially with no general election. there are many sweaty palms and brows. this reeks of panic. to think we can get a housing programme and all of the infrastructure involved being advocated by sir oliver in that time, it beats imagination. advocated by sir oliver in that time, it beats imaginationm advocated by sir oliver in that time, it beats imagination. it is supposed to be 300,000 homes per year being built. we are not. there has been a complete black hole when it comes to domestic policy in the
11:35 pm
last two years due to brexit. that was ok at the beginning when it looks like rigs it was going somewhere, perhaps positive, perhaps not, but moving forward, and now we have had gridlock. —— brexit. we do not have any national housebuilding strategy. we are not building enough, and not in the right places. we still have restrictive land legislation that prevents them being built. services have tried, as george osborne did with david cameron's government, which is very demand, like help to buy scheme —— sparing. they are noticing the people that would ordinarily vote for them, 2022 or earlier, they are stuck in the kerry is rental situations and will not vote unless it is fixed. —— precarious. situations and will not vote unless it is fixed. -- precarious. the defence secretary was £20 million or he will bring theresa may down. do
11:36 pm
you believe this? —— wants. he will bring theresa may down. do you believe this? -- wants. do i believe he would risk bringing down the government at this point when the government at this point when the alternative isjeremy corbyn? absolutely not. the language from kevin williamson is incredibly strong. "i made her and can break her too." he says he has 20 tory mps with him to vote down a budget with no more money to defence. that is strong language and i think it is a leadership bid. jeremy hunt has gained popularity in respect by saying he had this extra £20 billion for the nhs. showing you can win domestic victories in cabinet, that is good. now kevin williamson thinks he can do it as well. he is having
11:37 pm
to ta ke he can do it as well. he is having to take on philip hammond and theresa may. a powerful security adviser. yeah. if we are to believe he has said this, he is upping the ante. does he have a point the uk should be a top tier nation with defence? he has a point. the person who should know about this is philip hammond. for a long time he was defence secretary and has a spotty record. i am defence secretary and has a spotty record. iam being polite. he boasted he had balanced the defence budget, he got the famous projection of 160 billion for equipment for the next ten years. that argument as well as the substance has more holes in it than cheese. what is going on as well is theresa may is seen with philip hammond no more money for
11:38 pm
defence, do we really need it? this is where we are getting into very choppy waters in terms of tory ideology. we had people before we went on air saying it is essential, a strong defence projection, for british power across the world. that is the message for post— brexit. the old maxim is the trade follows the flag. maritime trade is how it happens. they have notoriously tinny ea rs happens. they have notoriously tinny ears about this. to wrap it up, theresa may met with stoltenberg. theresa may met with stoltenberg. the uk has been asked to stay top
11:39 pm
tier, nuclear, cyber and conventional warfare. she pointed out the 2% gdp will continue. the defence secretary is not happy about that. a continuation of the gospel story. i do not understand how it ties in with drjay barton. is this story clear to you? note. why is that? this guy goes into the phone booth and says "get me rewrite." it isa booth and says "get me rewrite." it is a confused story. this is much bigger than this. the sunday times investigators dedicated two whole pages to this saying it is much bigger and went on for a long time.
11:40 pm
fa u lty bigger and went on for a long time. faulty and cheap syringe pumps that are not up to scratch and not up—to—date, getting in and out, boosting what is required by a patient in terms of painkillers, in 24 patient in terms of painkillers, in 2a hours! it is very powerful, the next thing is pure heroin. it is very damaging! what i find so interesting that they have not covered is how long this has been ongoing. and you wonder if it is still going on. in 2008 the nhs said go ahead despite safety alerts as early as 1995. other countries banned them. they are trying to cram a lot into a small space, one page. it will go for a while because there
11:41 pm
are allegations of a massive nationwide cover—up. it comes back to the nhs. could you turn back to the telegraph for me? restaurants need to reveal calorie counts in order to fight child obesity. would you be interested to see a calorie figure next to your treat? if it worked. there are so many issues. there is dubious evidence as to whether counts work. there are questions and concerns over the sugar tax. they did it in mexico and did not have the impact you wanted over child obesity. it is a very important health issue and is costing the nhs a lot, and will cost ita costing the nhs a lot, and will cost it a loss in the future. i do not have children so i cannot make this point. but i think it should be up to parents to instil healthy eating and exercise habits. many parents do
11:42 pm
not have the education. one in five, quite startling, one in five meals is consumed outside the home. i a lwa ys is consumed outside the home. i always thought going out was a treat. things have changed. i have children in the late 30s, one is a0. and grandchildren. it it is a huge change because when i was at home you would have a meal at home. that is the central point in his. we have one minute. a big story in the front of the express. game of thrones. we do not know what this is about. kit harrington and rose leslie, jon snow
11:43 pm

film review. cheerio. hello, and a very warm welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's releases is mark kermode. good to see you again, mark, what have you been watching? a very interesting week, we have maquia, a visually stunning anime. in the fade, a socio— political thriller with a gripping performance by diane kruger. and overboard, the remake no one was asking for. i'm looking forward to that, but let's start with something i literally know nothing about. i know you're a big fan of animation, tell us more. i knew nothing about this when i saw it. it opens on wednesday of next week, and it's written and directed by mari okada. the story is a mythical clout
11:45 pm
of celestial weavers who don't appear to age beyond teenage years. their idyllic land is invaded by marauders, by mortals. one of them is kidnapped and forced to marry a mortal king. another discovers a young baby who was wrenched from his mother's arms, and decides to look after the moral child. so it's a story about mothers and sons, mortality and immortality, and it's also a film in which we have spectacular visual set pieces and very small intimate scenes, one of which is here.
