pages there. no real consensus of what the front page should be. sajid javid pops up on quite a few of them. including the front page of them. including the front page of the independent. home secretary vows to block for those crossing. tricky line he is walking here. windrush?” noticed line he is walking here. windrush?|i noticed this purely a technical point. it is not clear... he suggested the government would do everything they can to stop migrants crossing the channel. the general international is people, you come here by regular means, that is not supposed to impact the process, so it is yet to be cleared what he means to do about that. what i think it touches on is the concern that when you look at the people coming over the channel, it's been declared

asa over the channel, it's been declared as a major incident by sajid javid, but there is a concern that there will be more boats and there will be more fatalities on the way over. i think the tone and the language today, i don't think, has worked particularly well. i infamous politicians choose their words carefully. who is he appealing to with this kind of tough rhetoric? certainly a constituency in the tory party which sajid javid may believe wa nt party which sajid javid may believe want this problem to deal dealt pretty firmly. for the home secretary to say, "actually, we don't put up with this," the point he makes is, if you are all fleeing from your homeland and you are looking for safe harbour, why don't

you make your asylum claim in the first safe country you get to? these people leaving through france, why didn'tl people leaving through france, why didn't i make the there? they may have family there trying to reunite with. i'm afraid other european countries will say, this is not a knee problem and you're not dealing with big numbers. the actual number people make their way from africa, but mainly the middle east we're talking about here, all the way across europe to the uk is ridiculously small compared to the mistake are in the mediterranean. —— compared to, say, the numbers in the mediterranean. i don't there will be much sympathy in brussels. let's go to the daily telegraph, because sajid javid pops up there. the home secretary ask for more vessels at sea questions migrants need for

asylum. again, the kind of rhetoric that ringing in the navy, being forceful... is this positioning for some run for the leadership in the future? to be honest, with most things these days involving cabinet ministers, you can link it to the tory leadership contest. they be that the cynical way to look at it. there are colleagues to sajid javid you think he has an incentive to seem you think he has an incentive to seem very you think he has an incentive to seem very firm on this issue. the numbers, so far, coming into the channel, we get asylum applications every month. it does pale in comparison to that number. i think there is a feeling in the conservative party that perhaps the reason that he wants to sound so ha rd reason that he wants to sound so hard line on it and get the message out is because he is conscious of how it is looking. and then i also do think that there is the risk that

you are going to have something go wrong one day soon, and people will asked, "why did you not do something?" it is... i mentioned windrush, henry. and the enormous appalling tragedy that that was for so many people. and ijust wonder, you know, mrjavad must have sort of calculated that me talking tough on immigrants might have blowback as a result of everything that we've been involved with in this government with windrush in all the problems he had any past. one really interesting thing has happened since the brexit vote. and he may have a lot to do with the windrush scandal. attitudes oi'i with the windrush scandal. attitudes on immigration have changed dramatically. people's view of immigration, there no constituencies... they want them to

welcome migrants. ithink constituencies... they want them to welcome migrants. i think also, constituencies... they want them to welcome migrants. ithink also, this a question... to put the navy there makes the migrants safer. it does not solve the problem. it makes more people want to come across, as it has in the mediterranean. there's a real battle of perception, wanting to appear tough with the reality of how we sort this problem out. sajid javid's first having to do with this problem was to say there was no easy answer couple of days ago. but the navy in, that will be an easy answer! his officials will be saying, in any other kind of year the other stories would be on the front pages but you're going to deal with it. juergen have to do with this. brexit is still there. it is still on the front pages. david davis says, theresa may should the lady brexit deal votes. he reckons the mistaken right up to the very

last minute and the eu will cave was that he is a poker player! you should be too, mrs may. it's one for brinkmanship. the reason he may not be... maybe she's going to advocacy is are ready to lady brexit but once. many mps. .. is are ready to lady brexit but once. many mps... —— she argued the lady brexit vote once. she's really testing the mp5. there are other things they can do. where theresa may to try to push this book, and there are some who say you cannot really push it past the 21st of january, whether she should try and pushit january, whether she should try and push it to the actual week, think there will be some remain tory mps

submitting a confidence though or something like that to try and stop it because they would be worried that you're getting very close to a brexit. you would not be able to do other things after it. because right now the problem is, think, there's still a belief that mps can put this down and then they're all very optimistic they vote it down insta ntly optimistic they vote it down instantly get what they want. whether that eea membership, norway or second referendum or no deal, that's incentive. that's an incentive. but spring forward on the brexit debate a little bit. the financial times... the foreign secretaryjeremy financial times... the foreign secretary jeremy hunt financial times... the foreign secretaryjeremy hunt is in the city state in southeast asia. one wonders exactly what it is he would like written to emulate from singapore apart from it being loaded and rich. but he dismissed various other things like... democracy, a few

issues concerning the education system. i mean, i don't know. in some ways, this would foreign secretary should do. go over the world and say how great this country is... the freedom of the press! there is no papers in singapore. i just want to make that point, folks. jeremy hunt has set himself up as a protector of press freedom. not a big deal. one thing i picked out the .. they big deal. one thing i picked out the they opened up the world. obviously comparison with brexit that you would like to draw there. he talks about singapore's approach to international trade, its education system, high—pressure, strong results. ithink education system, high—pressure, strong results. i think the reality is that singapore is a very easy

sort of slogan for some people on the conservative writes. they see this very day and ecology they don't actually know too much about, but they think perhaps that involves setting enterprise lease. in fact, the state has a hand in the economy. it's not a free society, a raging economy. “— it's not a free society, a raging economy. “ a it's not a free society, a raging economy. —— a raging democracy. i'm sure jeremy hunt is visiting malaysia, will find nice things about malaysia as well. malaysia, will find nice things about malaysia as welllj malaysia, will find nice things about malaysia as well. i have this image in my head ofjeremy hunt and his advisers is going through relist as the weeks have gone on about things they can say about singapore. we cannot go there, not social, not... we had an article written by jeremy hunt in the sunday paper on sunday, and in it, that was built with the headline about, you know,

low tax. it did seem likejeremy hunt was going further in his present the tory leadership, brexiteer. .. present the tory leadership, brexiteer... right present the tory leadership, brexiteer. .. right now, present the tory leadership, brexiteer... right now, back on a table. ok, we're going to leave it there. we're going to go. back to some more of the stories. back to those in a few others in about an hour's time. mexican, henry and katie. that's it for the papers for this addition —— thanks for that, henry and katie. you cannot knock a if you missed the programme and evening, it's on iplayer. we will be seen harry and katie again in about an hour's time. thank you, bye—bye. hello. good evening. temperatures across parts of scotland have already dipped to below minus eight

degrees. it is cold out there. for many of us, since predominantly chilly. there is some sunshine in the forecast but i think sun is the operative word. large amounts of cloud as well, and by night some frost and some thought. remember the mild weather we had at the end of 2018? there was still mild air in the atlantic. but at the moment, it cannot come our way because of this big area of high pressure that has parked itself across the british isles. it stopped bringing in the mild air. it also stops as britney and the atlantic frontal systems. underneath this high, we have trapped a lot of pot. —— we have trapped a lot of pot. —— we have trap a lot of cloud. for eastern and southern scotland, northern england, wales, the midlands, maybe parts of the west country, we're likely to seek some prolonged clear spells allowing us temperatures to drop. it has already become very cold across parts of scotland, as asia mentioned. —— as i mentioned. not as

cold across the far east. more cloudier. maybe just the odd drizzly shower or parts of east anglia in the south of england. generally speaking tomorrow, a dry day. many early fog patches tends to clear. they may take a while to do so. we should see a little bit more in the way of sunshine developing as the day wears on. the cloud tending to break up, not that it will help the damages very much. as we go through thursday night, if indeed we do and the day with less cloud, more clear skies overhead, it is going to turn into a very cold night indeed. if it's uncertain whether you're after, the southeast of europe is for you. some snow in the forecast here, but back home, high—pressure still firmly in charge on friday. there could well be some quite dense patches of freezing fog around first thing and perhaps most likely across the midlands, east wales and the south of england. that fog could be quite slow to clear. otherwise you find a full substance doesn't sunshine, a fairmont of cloud as

well and the staplers struggling, particularly if it stays perky for a good part of the day. maybe only two or three degrees. as we look ahead to begin, it stays largely dry. more cloud spreading southwards on sunday. this is bbc news. two men are arrested in manchester on suspicion of arranging the illegal movement of migrants across the channel into the uk. meanwhile the home secretary questions whether people trying to illegally crossing the channel are genuine asylum seekers. the return to work and a hike in railfares after a troubled network here. apple warning investors revenue will be lower than expected blaming the slowdown in china and customers not upgrading their phones. nasa under they are —— unveils the first clear images from the most distant object viewed by a spacecraft, ultima thule, and it's shaped like a
