unbeaten is a mark of liverpool's new depth. from the bench, they called for an unlikely hero. shaqiri spent last season getting relegated. this strike for 2—1 was the first pa rt this strike for 2—1 was the first part of a deflected double. and though united will rue the ricochets, liverpool finished this match with 36 shots on goal. in this fixture now, mancunian dominance is frozen in history with liverpool moving upwards. southampton‘s paul darren to the table has led them to the alps. he's the first austrian manager in the premier league. that fall down. it showed in the charge, their high—energy, with charlie austen's winning header. beating arsenal 3—2 ended arsenal's 22 match unbeaten run and the side with new alpine ambition are marching back up the mountain. joe lynskey, bbc news. in the day's other premier league fixture, chelsea beat brighton 2—1 to stay fourth in the table.

this week will look very different from last week. last week, we had a big blocking area of high pressure, the weather wasn't moving very much and we were drawing in old airfrom the near continent. over the weekend, storm deirdre has pushed away that really cold air and instead our weather is coming in from the atlantic. this area of cloutier will bring some rain, this area of cloud has already done so, that's moving through and as skies clear, quite chilly by the morning and temperatures close enough for a touch of frost and icy patches. monday looks like a decent day for the eastern side of the uk, plenty of sunshine and light winds. further west, the winds will pick up, cloud amounts will increase and eventually we'll see pat jay rayner and drizzle. the winds may be touching gale force wind western coasts by the end of the afternoon but it's a

southerly wind and its mild, ten or 12 in northern ireland, milder than on sunday. looking further ahead, then surely this area of low pressure will brings showers but for the time being it's pushing in that weather front and a band of rain. the time being it's pushing in that weatherfront and a band of rain. a windy start to wednesday, gales out to the west, and the rain moving slowly east, heavy rain, especially over the hills, and with snowmelt in scotland, there could be localised flooding. eventually an improvement for the weather in northern ireland and it takes all day for the rain to arrive in east anglia. another mild day, 11 or 12. the weatherfront will take the outbreaks east and out of the way of the night, and on wednesday we see the area of low pressure approaching the uk and that will be a focus for the showers. good spells on the job around on wednesday, showers clipping the south—east from the word go —— good spells of sunshine around. 7—10.

that low pressure is going to dominate our weather really i think as we move into thursday. not a particularly deep area of low pressure. in fact, the pressure is rising so showers should be turning fewer, sunny spells and a few showers around again, mostly out to the west and temperatures on thursday much like those of wednesday. hello. this is bbc news, with lu kwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment, first the headlines. theresa may will tell parliament that another referendum would break faith with voters as a senior minister says mps should have a say on all the options. a 5—year—old boy becomes the third victim of a house fire in nottinghamshire. his mother and 8—year—old sister died yesterday. bad weather is blamed for a fall in the number of high street shoppers on one of the busiest days before christmas. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the broadcaster john stapleton and political correspondent for the spectator, katy balls. lovely for the spectator, katy balls. to have you both her to lovely to have you both here. good to be here. let's take a look at some of tomorrow's front pages. the guardian leads on theresa may's insistence that there should not be a second referendum, amid growing calls for a new vote. it's the same story for the metro. the paper says the prime minister will reiterate her oppostion to another referendum after reports her aides are plotting one behind her back. ‘don‘t dare steal our brexit‘ says the daily express, which also focuses on mrs may's firm belief that that the result of the 2016 referendum is delivered. the i leads on plans emerging within the government to end the political deadlock over brexit, with reports cabinet ministers are pressuring theresa may to let

mps vote on all of the main options. the daily telegraph splashes on warnings from prominent brexiteer borisjohnson, who says that a second vote would be a betrayal. theresa may shares that view, according to the online independent, which joins the other papers leading on the prime minister's opposition to a new poll. the daily mirror is campaigning to keep free tv licenses for over 755 and welcomes the backing of former prime minister, gordon brown. the daily mail says the nhs wants to double its army of volunteers in recognition of what it calls the huge benefits for patient care. those are the front pages. let's start off, it's going to be brexit. katy, how about you kick us off with

the front page of the times? this is calls for parliamentary votes on all the different possible brexit options. at the moment, theresa may is trying to say it is her deal mps should vote on and it's the best deal forward. hasn't worked out that world so far, she's had to postpone the vote, she has had a no—confidence vote, which she has one “— no—confidence vote, which she has one —— that well. perhaps a second referendum, a norway style brexit, a no—deal brexit, there's talk of a free vote allowing these things, it wouldn't be binding and it would make clear the numbers. some people wa nt to make clear the numbers. some people want to do this because it would show there is most support for the brexit they want. other people want to show there not support for anything, so maybe people should get behind theresa may's deal. that's what she is under pressure to do.

for her she doesn't want to do this because she still believes in the brexit deal. she wants to get on with it right now, a point that she makes in this article. a lot of this is going to go right over the heads of the public, it's a complicated scenario being outlined and liam fox outlined it on marr this morning and i was thinking, what, when, outlined it on marr this morning and iwas thinking, what, when, why, who decides what the questions are? it's a complex business and off for people to take in, this will make it even more so people to take in, this will make it even more so that business enough. there's clearly division in her cabinet about the best way ahead —— business ahead. let's turn to the sun, obviously that statement being made tomorrow —— business enough. will it change? she's saying the referendum is off, it's not on the table. not the most subtle headline they've ever come up with but probably one of the more effective ones! no way is there going to be a referendum. people argue, and as

sooi'i referendum. people argue, and as 50011 as referendum. people argue, and as soon as she issued this advance copy of her speech tonight for tomorrow to make sure it got in the papers, and it succeeded to get on the front page of many, as soon as she did that, dame margaret beckett, former foreign secretary, a leading supporter of the people's vote, came out to say that we should have a second referendum and the fact she's released this information tonight affectively shows how desperate they're getting and demonstrates that there is talk about not justin wilson insta, where you referred to the alleged plotting of some of mrs may's aids, but also being in the corridors of whitehall and across the country —— just in westminster. there's people around theresa may talking about this as a possibility. she said it's not going to happen. there are some theresa may allies given that her deal can't get through the commons, they think it will do better and there's a chance

it will wind if you took it back to the country. if you compare the... if you're a remainer, you say you'll get control of immigration, that might take you over the line. for the reasons theresa may has said, it would be testing for the tories. let's move off from brexit. from the european council president, donald tusk, just picked this up on the news wires, he is questioning the ethics of the brexiteers, questioning really the best intentions and a hopelessly weak imagination, comparing it to the end of the first world war. really? justified? that will go down well! he's on a trip to germany at the moment, in dortmund, that's what he's saying. you saw at the eu council meeting on friday, hostilities on all sides have got increasingly frosty. use of donald tusk and juncker saying we might have been discourteous to theresa may but it's nothing compared to

what her own mps do —— you saw. may but it's nothing compared to what her own mps do -- you saw. the daily mail has its nhs story. volunteer army? this is like other newspapers saying people are fed up of brexit. they want a campaign to get people to volunteer in hospitals, they say they have 23,000 readers who have signed up, very successful, great news. they're saying the nhs wants to increase that number even more, doubling the numberof that number even more, doubling the number of volunteers working in our hospitals doing all sorts ofjobs, helping the nurses and doctors, running errands, talking to the patient's. they make the point in this article, it's very valid, volunteers of a certain age, my generation, get a lot from it themselves —— patients. gives them something to do, give them a purpose, doing something good, hats off to them for doing that, a good campaign. the younger volunteers, you learn very important life skills

doing it, it sets you up for the workplace. shame the nhs is in such dire straits that it needs these volunteers, as well as 40,000 nurses! the daily mirror, katy? another campaign, the mirror's campaign about the proposed decision to make over 755 pay for the tv licence, and that's left the bbc in a pickle about whether they will charge over 755 or bring in a scheme. they're saying to scrap it and they've had gordon brownjoined it, and his call on the government to think again. it's a consultation period at the moment with the bbc in terms of how they fund that. there's various tiers of things they would do for that. i rememberjoe bakewell said, as an over 75, she would be happy to pay for her tv licence —— joan ba kewell. those happy to pay for her tv licence —— joan bakewell. those who can afford it, maybe they should, and those who can't afford it, if you take a

certain pension benefit, maybe you would be entitled to it, but others would be entitled to it, but others would pay. it costs £750 million a year to fund licences for over 755. the difficulty with means—testing, the cost of admin is enormous, so arguably they don't game that much. let's finish with the times. this is my story of the night! —— don't again. the reason is i learned quite again. the reason is i learned quite a lot about you, john —— don't gain. can you change a bold? i'm paying the price bourdy vaulting a secret before we came on air —— can you change a bulb —— i'm paying the price for divulge ring. —— divulge and. a lot of these shops and stores are creating wonderful things like self sticking wallpaper, all sorts of

things that you don't need nails or bolts or screws fall, furniture you don't have to... 0k, bolts or screws fall, furniture you don't have to... ok, you know what i thought was quite interesting was katy‘s ta ke thought was quite interesting was katy‘s take —— screws for. she said this article is about me. katy‘s take —— screws for. she said this article is about melj katy‘s take —— screws for. she said this article is about me. i was embarrassed when i was nodding about most of the things people have
