were picking up fares seven and ten times lower than normal. that is the great technical glitch for consumers. so let's begin. with me is research analyst stephanie hare. the most read newspaper in brazil talking about jair bolsonaro, his inaugural speech. he had a lot to say. give us your take on your coverage of this. it is interesting because he has been likened to donald trump and the us and brazil have not always had great relations in the past 20 years. we could see something really new emerging between their relationships of these two countries and how that will change relations within other south american latin american countries. we have a humanitarian crisis and this is something we have to keep an eye on. we know he is fighting

corruption, he was elected in 0ctober corruption, he was elected in october as though it is early days to predict what will happen, but thatis to predict what will happen, but that is the big cards he is laying out. any would argue he is compared to trump because he is seen as a divisive figure, yet he got his democratic, he was democratically elected, and he said over and over again, the brazilian people, democratically chose me, therefore i can crack on with my agenda. corruption, pension reform. there are concerns about his own core beliefs about things like homosexual people, women, all sorts of key issues. and the environment, which in this age of climate change and disasters happening around the planet is concerning because brazil has the amazon rainforest, which is the most important in the world to regulating the planet. it isa

the planet. it is a worrying for those who watch the environment. really interesting about his relationship with the us in the future. this on the day we are hearing about teargas thrown over the border between the us and colombia, the concern of people pouring into the states, and from venezuela. the way that we deal with refugees and asylum seekers really dates from the second world war and we have not come up with a policy that really works for the price is facing different countries today. the us mexico border is a flashpoint. 0ne mexico border is a flashpoint. one to watch, as you say. really interesting. let's move on to this story in the financial times which is the economist giving us his take on where we are headed, and as i was reading this, i was reminded of the fa ct reading this, i was reminded of the fact that at this time of year as i love reading the announcement coming from top economies, leading investment banks, their thoughts on

the year ahead. it is a really interesting read, isn't it? yes. right now, he rate makes a really interesting point they back in the 1980s, japan was seen as a country that would be the number one economy in the world. it is still very strong. the future might now belong to china. he is questioning that on a few grounds, one of which he questions the fundamental economic model of china, he opposes it and says things like artificial intelligence and robotics could see the us unleash a new era of growth, and i, which is starting at a lower base than china, has the potential to grow by 27% for the next ten, 20 yea rs. he compares it. he compares it but he also talks about the leadership as well. those pictures there, cartoons. talking about the man in charge as well, and what a significant element that is in terms of how these economies, these

countries are led. yes, policy is so important. i think it is really interesting that this column, which is so sharp, doesn't mention the environment, and these are both countries that have really quite high at pollution, big populations and pressing democratic issues. i think there is a lot more. i would like to think about that over the course of the year. iam sure over the course of the year. i am sure he absolutely well. the about alice bowman, who is the mission manager at nasa, and she is high—fiving a colleague because of they did this fly past 4 billion miles away at the edge of the solar system. incredible. this is innovation, science. it is exciting, isn't it? you can see the joy on her face as she is high—fiving one of her collea g u es she is high—fiving one of her colleagues and it is wonderful because it embodied highlights the role of an women in america's who have been at the years but written out of history. this picture puts

the right front and centre. we will remember her name, alice bowman. it is just a fly past. it is the edge of the solar system and they went past and icy matter, but this is the fact they are continuing to pioneer and move ahead and move ahead, and it is nasa we are talking about, but there are private companies doing this stuff as well. spacex among them. we are having a renaissance in state —— spake exploration. private companies are pioneering more than ever, aren't they? it is fantastic, really exciting. mumbai's business standard. if they really interesting article, and screening for suicide risk, facebook takes on a tricky role. it talks about how in the last year we have helped first responders quickly reach out to 3500 people globally needed help. when i read this, i thought, hang on a second, there were 70 articles in

2018 talking about faith book being the cause of mental health problems. and instagram, that is the one that is most rated to give you mental health issues, anxiety copper, ——,, comparing to everybody else. voter shopping themselves are not showing what is going on. then there is facebook itself and with people live streaming suicide in 2017, the company could not do nothing. what is important to highlight a technologist perspective it with a know—how facebook is doing this. you don't know if there are rates are identifying at risk people, are as effective as they could read, but it would be good to see them open up their methodology and results to research is an mental health professionals. the year that facebook had, 2018. it was of the year they have had,

cloud up into the far north—east, a window of sunshine for south—west scotland and northern england. but thicker cloud further south and west, that was a weather front still to clear away, and here, we had cloud and some drizzle and it still stayed pretty mild. but behind that weather front, that's allowing that northerly flow to take hold, and for the rest of the week, a stark contrast in the feel of the weather. that northerly flow will always bring the risk of a little more cloud along east coasts, but we start wednesday further west with some clear skies and a touch of frost to begin with. but it will be a sparkling start to wednesday, the further west you are, with some lovely spells of sunshine coming through. all the time, because of that northerly wind on exposed east—facing coasts, we could run the risk of more cloud and a few scattered showers across east anglia and that kent coast as well. but further west with the sunshine, temperatures generally at around 3—5 degrees, maybe out to the west, where we've got a little more coastal cloud, maximum temperatures of 7 degrees.

now, the high pressure stays with us for much of the week, but itjust changes its position a little, and that allows the wind direction to change very subtly. we still keep that northerly flow across those east coasts, but further west, we start to drag in a return to a south—westerly, a slightly milder air source, but that will also bring with it a little more moisture as well, and more cloud. so, south—west england, wales, northern ireland, west—facing coasts of scotland could start off pretty cloudy and murky, maybe with a little bit of freezing fog in places. further inland, the best chance of seeing the sunshine, but again, still not a particularly warm day on thursday. highest values of 3 to 9 degrees perhaps in the far north—west of scotland. as we move out of thursday night, we keep the clear skies, and for many, those temperatures are likely to fall away, again the exception perhaps the further west you are. but those temperatures will all tumble and we could have a widespread cold,

frosty night across the country, maybe the coldest night throughout the week. 0vernight lows generally down to at least —3 or “4, maybe even lower in rural parts. but it does look as though we will continue to see some lovely spells of sunshine on friday. indications of things clouding over a little, though, for the start of the weekend, and as we get into sunday, the high pressure could weaken off and we could see a weather front pushing into the far north—west, which could bring more significant rain. take care. good morning. welcome to breakfast, with louise minchin and charlie stayt. 0ur headlines today: misery for millions of rail commuters heading back to work today, as they face another hike in the cost of a ticket. fares in england and wales are going up by more than 3%, as delays and cancellations hit a 17 year high. a man suspected of stabbing three people at a manchester tram stop is detained under the mental health act. the average 10—year—old has already eaten more sugar than the recommended maximum
