staying at the backpackers hostel in auckland, last confirmed sighting was on saturday night one week ago, entering a hotel in the city with a male companion. police say he had been with her during the evening. the 26—year—old man has been charged with her murder and is due to appear in court on monday. let's talk to our reporter phil mercer, who has been following developments from sydney in australia. what else have police in new zealand been saying about this? they are saying that their investigation is farfrom over, saying that their investigation is far from over, many saying that their investigation is farfrom over, many questions saying that their investigation is far from over, many questions still remain to be answered. how and why did this young british traveller died? the man in question, the man the police believe murdered grace millane is due to appear in auckland's district court as we have heard on monday. how and why she died is still the subject of an ongoing police investigation. the body was found in bushland popular

with hikers and sightseers, about 15 miles from the centre of auckland. police spent most of today, sunday, in that location at around four o'clock in the afternoon local time. they made that terrible announcement that in their opinion the body they found is that of the missing backpacker, so one can only imagine the from a being endured by her family, herfather the from a being endured by her family, her father arrived in the from a being endured by her family, herfather arrived in new zealand on friday to give support to the police. but of course now that has taken the investigation a tragic turn, and we now await the formal results of that postmortem and await the appearance in court on the 26th old man who has been charged with her murder. so many young people go to new zealand backpacking, this has caused quite a lot of shock in new zealand where people are used to welcoming in tourists and a scan of crime is pretty unusual. it is, new

zealand will be worried that its reputation as a safe destination for backpackers and travellers will be diminished because of this tragedy, but it must be said that new zealand isa but it must be said that new zealand is a pretty safe place for thousands of young britons, it is a rite of passage for many, we know that this young woman from essex have spent some time in south america. she arrived in new zealand and had been travelling by herself. there are thousands of other young women from around the world who regularly do this. we are getting into the warm summer this. we are getting into the warm summer months in the southern hemisphere and new zealand will remain no doubt a very popular part of the backpacker trial but i would imagine that this tragedy in auckland will make many young women think very carefully about their personal safety, in a country that has enjoyed a reputation as being a pretty safe place to be. oche, thank you very much indeed. downing street insists that tuesday's crunch brexit vote will go ahead, rejecting suggestions that theresa may could delay it,

in order to avoid a heavy defeat. in an interview with the mail on sunday the prime minister warns of entering ‘uncharted waters' if the deal is rejected. meanwhile will quince — an aide at the ministry of defence — has resigned from his position, saying he cannot back the deal. our political correspondent, nick eardleyjoins me now. quite a few developments this morning. downing street saying that this vote will go ahead but quite a lot of speculation in the papers that it would, that it will be delayed. lots of pressure on the prime minister from lots of pressure on the prime ministerfrom some in her party to dojust ministerfrom some in her party to do just that. ministerfrom some in her party to dojust that. some believe ministerfrom some in her party to do just that. some believe that the potentially humiliating extent of defeat on tuesday means it is not the right thing to go ahead. we have heard various senior members of the conservative party saying, figure out some answers to some of the big question that some have and then come back with the vote. the problem

is on the other side there are some saying then the conservative party, thatis saying then the conservative party, that is no point still a net. you have had two years to figure out something that could potentially get the party onside and you have not done it yet so what makes you think you'll be able to do it over the next few days? on top of that there isa next few days? on top of that there is a european council meeting next week and something the prime minister needs to lose and probably was comfortable before she can get a more from brussels in terms of the backstop. downing street nursing this morning that evil on tuesday goes ahead, that nothing has changed, plans remain the same. i suspect many people will still be keeping an eye out tomorrow to see whether not that changes. meanwhile another resignation from the government, albeit a junior minister in. yes the prime minister as you mentioned is out batting for this deal again this morning, warning her party that if it does not get onside at risk the general election, risks

at risk the general election, risks ajeremy corbyn at risk the general election, risks a jeremy corbyn government. the problem she has and she has had this for a few weeks now, this people don't seem to be listening. the people the prime minister is trying to twist their arms, they are not getting on board civil because she says something worse could happen. will quincey is a good example, he is not a household name by someone who at home will be sitting up going, while this is a catastrophe for the government, but it suggest that even those within the government payroll and those who have ministerial orjunior ministerial posts, they are not all on—board. there is a lot of speculation that more people in similar roles could go over the next few days. and that could mean that even the numbers we have just now would suggest up to 100 conservatives may not back the prime minister, is that the vote goes ahead on tuesday, it might be even more. some of the people we thought might be loyal may not be because they are leaving government, because they are leaving government, because they have some of the problems with they have some of the problems with the withdrawal agreement. the prime

minister faces the withdrawal agreement. the prime ministerfaces a the withdrawal agreement. the prime minister faces a colossal task she's going to get this through. the french prime minister has promised to restore national unity after a fourth weekend of violent protests against the government. police used tear gas and rubber bullets yesterday and more than 1700 people were arrested — while more than a hundred were taken to hospital. lucy williamson reports. they called it a protest. at times it looked more like a game of urban war. groups of protesters fanned through the capital's streets. from the arc de triomphe to republique, boulevards once built to open the veins of the city filled with tear gas, burning vehicles, and riot police. the police were well prepared for this confrontation, with armoured vehicles, new tactics, and bag searches — seizing gas masks and helmets and anything that could be used against police. the tear gas, far stronger than usual, took many protesters by surprise. and rapid reaction squads marked out

by orange armbands were stationed among the protesters to spot trouble and make early arrests. despite the violence of previous protests, this movement still has the backing of many voters in france. its members proud of their lack of leadership and the diversity of their support. but this movement is already splintering into two kinds of protest — one that looks towards a new political programme and a violent wing, opposed to any negotiation. it is hard to exclude and even harder to control. lucy williamson, bbc news, paris. president trump is looking for a new chief of staff after announcing that john kelly will leave the white house at the end of the year. the president says a replacement will be announced shortly. it again highlights how frequently there are changes to mr trump's top team, as russell trott reports. if you want to get things done and

impose discipline, then who better to form the role of the president's chief of staff than a retired marine corps general? john kelly certainly fit the bill but the white house faces a fresh challenge in the new year when the democrats take control of the house of representatives, so a new approach is needed. john kelly will be leading towards the end of the year, and then of the year. i appreciate his service very much. telling the president thinks he might not want to hear can for any member of staff often result in a difficult relationship. one year ago general kellyjokingly denied reports that he clashed with his commander—in—chief. reports that he clashed with his commander-in-chief. i would offer to you that although i read it all time, consistently, i

you that although i read it all time, consistently, lam not quitting today. i don't believe and ijust talked to the present, i don't think i am being fired today. and i am not so frustrated in this job but i'm thinking of leaving. also nominated for a new role as a—star army general mark millais, to be the next chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. his choice for those nominations for the new attorney general and the ambassador to the un. according to one washington think tank the current white house is at the highest turnover of senior level staff of the past five presidents. the revolving door it seems will keep on turning. scientists and delegates at a un climate conference in poland have expressed alarm, after it failed to incorporate a key scientific text, which outlines how to limit the effects of climate change. the ipcc report on the impact of a one point five degree celsius temperature rise, was released in october. but now the us, russia, saudi arabia and kuwait have all objected to the conference ‘welcoming' it.

caroline rigby has more. as delegates met inside the conference centre, thousands marched outside, demanding politicians wake up outside, demanding politicians wake up to the threat of climate change. voicing concerns that time is running out. we need to do something now, we need action right now, not tomorrow or in 11 years, but now. and yet another spanner in the works, one which threatens to derail progress tackling global warming. in october, the un's intergovernmental panel on —— panel on climate change details the importance of keeping the global temperature rise to under 1.5 degrees. in a major report that once we have just 12 years to half

carbon emissions or risk significant and dangerous changes to our world. and despite being commissioned by this very un climate body at its conference in 2015, efforts today hash—mac to recognise the report's significance have run into difficulty. saudi arabia, the knighted states, russia and kuwait have refused to welcome the text, merely wanting to take note of it. and without finding an acceptable, promotes, un rules meant it had to be dropped. this is farfrom just semantics, it has the potential for major consequences. and as further evidence of the growing divide between countries who want rapid political action and those who do not. it is an important report, it should be part of the package that is moving forward. again it is up to the world leaders in negotiators should take this issue seriously and show that they are committed to

tackling climate change. the refusal to welcome the text is caused outrage among delegates, but against the backdrop of this coal—mining region, or may not be lost. many in the summitare region, or may not be lost. many in the summit are pinning their hopes on ministers who arrive on monday to work towards the reinstatement of the report. a teenager has been stabbed to death in south—east london. police say the 18—year—old died at the scene after suffering stab injuries during an incident at a residential address in greenwich. a 17—year—old boy has been arrested in connection with the incident. the headlines on bbc news: a body is found by police investigating the murder of british backpacker grace millane in new zealand. theresa may warns of ‘grave uncertainty‘ if mps vote down her brexit deal on tuesday. france‘s prime minister calls for unity as 1700 people are arrested in a fourth weekend of violent protests. police in new zealand

north wales, these trains are called parliamentary services, and they are rare. i find them very novel. it should not be here but they are, because of the government regulation being so hard to close tracks. this is the very last train, the romance of railway, i have been all over the country doing parliamentary 's. the chance to come down so i thought come down on travel on this day the day. where you from? north wales. you have come all this way for the parliamentary service? yes. this service has run once a day for a week on what was historically the north main line, it opened in 1905. but the opening of the london underground central line next to its passengers. usually this service tracks very few commuters. there are 200 or so rail enthusiasts on board this parliamentary service, sometimes also known as ghost trains

and there are just a handful that have left on the network and the idea is it is cheaper to run the train once a week than to close the line entirely. work for the high—speed rail link hs2 means of most of the track will now be demolished. to close a railway station is a corrugated process with a lot of red tape so in almost all cases it is cheaper for the railway company to run limited service on one traina company to run limited service on one train a day or even one train a week, or in some cases no train at all, a permanent replacement bus service, that is to actually go through the act of parliament to close the line. ghost trains hard not dead in this part of the capital, some of the new north mainline will remain in from monday once a day and you parliamentary service will start running. 55 pairs of designer trainers, seized from a jailed gangster are to be sold at auction. the collection, valued at around £18,000 includes luxury brands

museum. but many of these treasures on display were plundered during belgium‘s roofers colonial rule. swathes of central africa were run ata swathes of central africa were run at a private royal estate by leo for the second. the museum began as a showcase of their treasures. but in the past five years it has been revamped to make its exhibits more critical of belgium‘s brittle colonial past. translation: we were often called the last colonial museum in the world so we wanted to change that, we wanted to look at contemporary africa, but at the same time takea contemporary africa, but at the same time take a more critical look at the colonial past. it is estimated that there are 90% of africa‘s material cultural heritage is in museums outside of the conference over many the renovation does not go far enough. translation: from our point of view reader not care if the museum is renovated art, if it reopens on up, what interest as is restitution. because there is no

decolonisation without restitution. the debate over returning artefact has raged for years, but it is only recently that the former imperial powers have started to address requests. posted in emmanuel macron urged that artefacts stolen by france should be returned after commissioning an independent report on several european museums such as the victoria and albert museum said that treasures like these taken from ethiopia by the british could be returned to africa on a long—term loan. we're willing to talk about restitution within certain conditions, we need to establish the ownership, loans, clearly the moral ownership, loans, clearly the moral ownership is with the country, but does that mean that everything that was acquired in the colonial period is legal or not? that must be discussed further. whatever happens, after five years out of the public view it is hoped that these a rtefa cts will view it is hoped that these artefacts will gain a wider audience. a uk made instrument has captured the sound of the wind on mars.
