been there, been there, done that? been there, done it. i don't recall having to wrestle it from anyone or interrupting anyone. it made a point of getting out straightaway as part of getting out straightaway as part ofa of getting out straightaway as part of a deliberate strategy. this is a very interesting way that panned out because it was as if the individual thought she should go and get that microphone. i did not know whether she was told to, he did not look like it. she just went to take it. a woman here in this accusation that jim acosta baska behaviour is inappropriate and has resulted in him being suspended temporarily. but the question is was a to it with a behaviour or because the president did not like the tone of his questions. hardly a secret that donald trump dislikes cnn and he has made regular attacks on the media but i think this takes a step further. and i think one question that britishjournalists further. and i think one question that british journalists are asking is what has there not been more of a collective response of the us media that an attack on one his attack on all. if you stopping off individual journalists in this way, then you gradually eroded the principle of a
10:46 pm
free press. interesting also then that donald trump for all his faults does have press conferences, that theresa may does not give press conferences. yes, a couple of hours. he asked if i should stop, am i boring you, no, carry on. but interesting in regard to the rights and wrongs of this microphone also but we're not quite clear on that yet, butjim acosta pushed pretty ha rd yet, butjim acosta pushed pretty hard and some might say that he was disrespectful. the event has to sit down and he had his one question at hand to keep pushing. the dynamic was interesting, i thought, although donald trump is quite robust and made to go quite hard. he did that in the same time that is what happens in these press conferences. look at the prime minister and the press covers as she takes part in, there is often a question and a follow—up that happens. it is often the central is taking their lead from other journalists the central is taking their lead from otherjournalists and mosul asked a question with a follow—up,
10:47 pm
whether it is taken or not is another thing. but i would absolutely hope that if something like this happened in the uk, actually the press gallery, the lobby team would actually walk out and you end up with what should be happening as he said had business conference and there should be nobody there if we want to support a free press for that is what should happen. lester to another politician closer to home this time with the metro and the brexit secretary dominic ravi was got into a bit of bother. i did not think he had done over. what he said that let him in such trouble? he was getting at a tech gathering, i think, for forgetting probably that there is no such thing as a private remark now. anything you say it will be picked up anything you say it will be picked upa anything you say it will be picked up a some anything you say it will be picked up a some form and he said he did not understand until they really look into it as a breakthrough or teri how important the dover — calais link was for british tray and for transportation of food and so oi'i. for transportation of food and so on. i think sometimes it is said that we want politicians to be
10:48 pm
suffocating and not to pretend that they are all powerful know what else, but i think there is a limit here andi else, but i think there is a limit here and i think it is unwise for him to have said i did not understand until i came to office. there is a pattern developing. you had the northern ireland secretary usage you do not realise until i got myjob at units and nationalist but for different parties. you had jeremy right of obedience or terry who said he did not have his description to any papers or magazines. at a time when brexit is a hugely complex task, it is not always seen as expert as it perhaps could be. this not fill you with confidence,. i think is a bit fair on dominic. are the point he was trying to make is when you look at them to his consumer space, he had not appreciated how much of it was relying on a particularly key pulling into the uk, which is the dover — calais, 26 mile bit of water. this is very important because as of the man who is
10:49 pm
reported to have a preference for one particular sandwich from a particular shot. he is the same lunch every day and there was a story written about it. it is rather u nfortu nate story written about it. it is rather unfortunate because it links you may get if they which is a bit like ed miliband cannot eat held after the incident and now woodham, heat the second issue about food which i think is unfortunate given his relatively limited palette that he has been talking about having. and george, the brexit story in many forms kind of crosses of various newspapers. the independent, british economy to be the weakest in europe. that's rather catastrophic predation does come from the european commission. sure we did this with a pinch of salt? yes. their forecast is the uk will growjust 1.2% which is the uk will growjust 1.2% which is the uk will growjust 1.2% which is the joint worst with italy. now of course brexiteers up to, and others mice at the eu would say that because they are a eurosceptic party
10:50 pm
across europe and britain is the one voted to leave and they are trying to make brexit appear as damaging as possible to put off others doing the 0b are, the government possibly own hmmfi 0b are, the government possibly own forecast says it will be 1.6% next year with a big picture here is forecast says it will be 1.6% next yearwith a big picture here is 1.2% or1.6is yearwith a big picture here is 1.2% or1.6 is both yearwith a big picture here is 1.2% or 1.6 is both pretty poor growth figures and growth is forecast of the next five years not to go above i think the next five years not to go above ithink1.6%l the next five years not to go above i think 1.6% i believe is the peak actually. so i think that makes a point that this is going to be an economically difficult time, even if theresa may does get her brexit deal agreed. the killer line is even if there is a smooth brexit, it is not looking good. and that is not a smooth brexit and what those numbers really look like? that is a huge challenge the government basis and we as consumers face what would be able to buy and where will will be able to buy and where will will be able to buy and where will will be able to buy and what we now have access to. i think bill had admitted to find a lot of money in the budget
10:51 pm
due to the ob are forecast. he must‘ve been pretty confident in terms of where they were at. however, we are still within reason that there is a pitcher for budget that there is a pitcher for budget that he is up puppet for the spring and is very much because there are concerns about what will happen with the economy. the little bit at the end of this, obviously it goes over but it says theresa may is under pressure from her ministers not to concede too much in negotiations, which dovetails into the daily telegraph and the fact that when it comes to fishing rights that the leverage here is the clock ticks might be with the eu. we were talking actually before we came on andi talking actually before we came on and i will say to george that one of the weird things that is the whole brexit picture is becoming like a boat with a leak. and it's almost like a cartoon. as you plug one ugly. like a cartoon. as you plug one ugly, something else happens and you to go to the other end. and it is like you to solve something and something else comes up in fishing was one of those issues that cannot quite a while ago now actually and
10:52 pm
has just quite a while ago now actually and hasjust re—emerged quite a while ago now actually and has just re—emerged again.|j quite a while ago now actually and hasjust re-emerged again. i was surprised prophecy a given everything is in the table and this last—minute dash for a deal. something else not be thrown in. last—minute dash for a deal. something else not be thrown inm isa something else not be thrown inm is a big issue for the scottish conservatives and they are an important group of conservative mps who if it were not for them, and resume would not be government and would be prime minister at all. they are very insisted that britain must have control and must be outside of the common fisheries policy, but the eu have the strongest hand and a theresa may has made it pretty clear i think that she wants to get a deal really at any cost despite what she says about no the of being better thana says about no the of being better than a bad deal. the session she estimate and much more difficult for her to get the agreement of her party in parliament. sol her to get the agreement of her party in parliament. so i still think you are heading for a crisis potentially. more brexit in the next arabi potentially. more brexit in the next arab i was goodbye to the guardian and their headline here decline of
10:53 pm
the highest regular space as thousands of stores close and they pay a pretty bleak picture as with —— with new stats about our high streets suffering. there is some data that has come out that suggests that closures of jobs data that has come out that suggests that closures ofjobs has increased in nearly i7% in across about £3000. and that does cover high streets, retail parks and shopping centres but surely the feeling is that if streets and are suffering the most. and that is everything in high streets and that is everything in high streets in that most. and that is everything in high streets and that includes pubs for example. that was surprising. you might have thought we all need something to drown our sorrows in this, but it says young people are not working as much. people are not necessarily going out as much. there has been a lot of data about people spending a lot of data about people spending a lot of data about people spending a lot of time indoors, people cooking more of enjoy more takeouts and people having a bottle of wine for example in for the tv and lots more choice in terms of what can watch. sol choice in terms of what can watch. soido
10:54 pm
choice in terms of what can watch. so i do not really know the answer is with the high street behind one of those who like comedians would like to order stuff online. at the same time, i think how recreate that convenience with high streets. what do we do? wasit said the decline of the high street starts when parking change. parking costs with the roof and restrictions around high streets changed massively and that is where the out—of—town centres made a difference because you could drive there and more comfortable and you could by law and drive home. so do not know. it seems like there are lots of suggestions of things that will happen with the budget and lots of suggestions of things can happen with taxes on businesses and also the suggestion that we have looked at really big high—profile names in the high street having problems about their rent. whether or not the government needs to look at something to boost independent stores so there is a reason to go to a high street because you have lots of choices same store, you can go somewhere more convenient where to go to the highest store. we have been here before. mary porter was
10:55 pm
called about government some years ago to try and think advocate it reinvigorate our high streets. one of those things that we take is a great idea but yet we all still log on our retail off but we do not put our money where our mouth is, do we? yes, ido our money where our mouth is, do we? yes, i do enjoy shopping in actual source. partly because as a journalist, you do get tired of looking at screens all the time. but i think this links in part of the economic forecast that you cannot expect a high streets to really be the growing into what they want when you have got growth not much more than one plus 5% and you have the a/c going to 20% and they are facing this perfect storm. and no one is coming up with a solution yet. we shall see if they do. we will do diabetes but not this hour. that's it for the papers for this hour. don't forget, you can see the paper front pages on the bbc news website at bbc.co.uk/papers, and watch this review again on the bbc iplayer. thank you to my guests george eaton and jo tanner.
10:56 pm
we'll all be back for a longer look at the papers at 11:30pm. the weather is next. if you has a shot today, it was lovely for many and both of the beautiful autumn colours but not for all. we had a lot of rain in the west or does he have a weather front which will get swept up by this developing area of low pressure tomorrow. it is a vast area of low pressure and it will give us a quite durable and weather. we are targeting gales or severe gales and the winds stronger than today and the winds stronger than today and the hitter and will suite right across the uk so it does look as though we could see some disruption. back to the here and now this is another rant looks to the evening. milford haven at almost a0 mm of rain and is now meandering into the east of north island and across scotland. so a wet start of an night
10:57 pm
here but it does clear the island and it meanders its way east and will start to affect some central areas and probably easing off towards morning by which state we have the next area of what weather coming into northern ireland and then into the afternoon across the western side of england and wales. for the east have the of today with a few showers by then but it introduces more cloud than we have seen today. still mild relatively at 13 or 1a but even in the east, we have gust of wind around a0 mph in for west, that rain and that dry wind making for some atrocious conditions on the road. lots of spray and standing water and gusts of winds of 60 or 70 mph isn't exposed coastal areas of the more exposed coastal areas of the more exposed rats should imagine. eventually direct marketing and overnight, that moves eastward and that way when it weather sweeps across eastern england and scotland and just across eastern england and scotland andjust grinding to across eastern england and scotland and just grinding to a halt in the northeast and dragging its heels for clearing in the south and east. not especially cold because we still have low pressure close by as you could say but an effect that will
10:58 pm
say icher to the northwest of the uk throughout the weekend. so with that south—westerly wind, it is mild but it will feel quite chilly in that breeze with lots of showers coming in. so especially there'll be more frequent about western and southern coasts but given the strength of the wind, ithink coasts but given the strength of the wind, i think they will bloody service as well so no one really escaping those showers although as i mentioned it still wasn't a mild with not a particularly cold as a move into the centenary of the armistice on a sunday but again it looks really unsettled and very hit and miss one of those showers so do stay tuned to the forecasts and we try and find than that's fine to the details will so there are ways that for friday and those are on the website. this is bbc news. i'm rachel schofield. the headlines at 11pm: a former us marine opens fire in a bar in california killing at least 12 people. he's now been identified by police as 28—year—old ian david long. we thought it was a joke. we didn't
10:59 pm
ta ke we thought it was a joke. we didn't take it seriously at first. it sounded like firecrackers. everyone just dropped down to the floor. a sharp rise in the number of prescriptions for diabetes is now costing the nhs in england more than £1 billion a year. speaking ahead of his 70th birthday, prince charles tells the bbc he'll no longer speak out on issues he feels strongly about when he is king. you can't be the same as the sovereign if you're the prince of wales or the heir. the
