6:01 am
day ahead today, a specially further north, with gales in the north of scotland. for most of us it will be cloudy with some glimmers of sunshine, but i'll have more in 15 minutes. good morning. it's monday, 7th january. our top story: nhs leaders will today unveil a long—term plan they say will save half a million lives in england over the next ten years. it is hoped the £20 billion a year boost will see more money for community care and mental health services, while transforming survival rates from some of britain's biggest killers. our health correspondent dominic hughes reports. the health service is treating more people than ever before, but it is struggling in the face of unprecedented demand. so nhs managers in england along with health charities, medical royal colleges and patient groups have been working on a plan for the next decade to try and improve services and to ease those pressures.”
6:02 am
decade to try and improve services and to ease those pressures. i think it isa and to ease those pressures. i think it is a really important moment for the nhs, to plan is to choose. what we need is a plan that is ruthlessly priorities, that we know could be afforded and that we know we have enough staff to deliver. what we must avoid is a plan that has a very long wish list of overinflated expectations that the nhs can't deliver. the 10-year plan includes the promise of more money for community, gp and mental services. every child with cancer will have their dna tested to identify the most effective treatments. and more patients will be kept for closer to oi’ patients will be kept for closer to or at home, reducing the pressure on hospitals. pushed me away. getting help at home has made all the difference to paulinho garp. for two decades she has lived with multiple sclerosis. last year and honest men she was admitted to hospital for a month, and it is not an experience she would care to it repeat. being in hospital is not nice for anybody
6:03 am
and certainly for that length of time, you need to be in your surroundings. for your mental health i think as much as anything. nhs leaders claim their plans could save nearly half a million lives over the next decade, and will future proof the health service as it copes with a growing and ageing population. many have welcomed the ambitions, but there are warnings that achieving them will be extremely tough, with labour saying the health service lacks the resources to see the plan through. iam sure i am sure you will have lots of thoughts on that this morning. we'll be speaking to nhs england's chief executive simon stevens shortly after 7am. get in touch if you have anything you would like to put to him. a man will appear before magistrates charged with murder this morning, after a father was stabbed to death in front of his son on a train. our reporter keith doyle is outside staines magistrate for us this morning. keith, what more can you tell us? good morning. this case received

wayne rooney, was arrested at an airport in washington dc last month for being drunk and abusive. his spokesperson has said he was left disorientated by prescribed sleeping tablets he took on a flight while drinking. the footballer moved to the us last june to take up a three—and—a—half year contract with dc united. it's been a great night for british stars at the golden globes in los angeles. olivia colman, christian bale, richard madden and ben whishaw have all picked up awards. the prestigious gala ceremony was hosted by the canadian actress sandra oh, who also picked up her own best actress award for her role in the hit bbc drama, killing eve. our north america correspondent dan johnson sent this report from hollywood. bohemian rhapsody. the story of queen's musical success was crowned best drama, and its lead actor, playing their lead singer, was rewarded. thank you to freddie

6:07 am
characters, the stories, the lies that have been brought to the screen. but there was no real standout winner. so what it all mean for the oscars, we will see it next month. more than 200 mps from different political parties have signed a letter to theresa may, urging her to rule out a no—deal brexit. the mps, including both leave and remain supporters, have been invited to meet the prime minister tomorrow. let's get more on this now from our political correspondent iain watson. good morning to you. yeah, we've been here a while, but same old divisions, it seems. that's right, and we are now i think 81 days from when we are due to leave the european union and still we have no deal. there is concern across parliament, this letter that you mentioned, signed by people from five different political parties, almost a third of mps from westminster urging the prime minister not to settle for no deal with the eu. the trouble is when you look at the list of people who are
6:08 am
signing that, they are agreed on what they don't want, which is the deal, they don't agree on the default option, so some on the list wa nt to default option, so some on the list want to see another referendum, a small number want to see the prime minister's deal, others would prefer britain to be like norway, staying close to eu rules after we leave, so when the prime minister meets this group tomorrow the question she will ask is, what would you like me to do instead 7 ask is, what would you like me to do instead? this ask is, what would you like me to do instead 7 this is ask is, what would you like me to do instead? this is the difficulty we are facing at the start of this year, much as it was last year, that although it doesn't look as though there is a majority for theresa may's deal which it was to mps on january 15, there is no obvious alternative which is garnering support, and her partners in government, the dup, repeated that they think this issue, the most controversial issue of the irish backstop, avoiding the hard border, they have called it poisonous and they have called it poisonous and they are not on board, so the difficulty is whether she can get a deal over the line and the
6:09 am
difficulty for mps opposing the deal is what to do instead. thank you for the moment. we will be covering that over the next few days no doubt. plans to tackle possible congestion on routes to dover in the event of a no—deal brexit will be tested today. 150 hgvs will travel the 20—mile route from manston airfield, near ramsgate, to the port of dover from eight o'clock this morning in an attempt to prevent a repeat of scenes like these. hauliers fear a no—deal brexit will create additional border checks, leading to queues of up to 29 miles. the government says it has to prepare for all eventualities. looks like very nice weather.m must have been in summer. it probably was. it is monday morning. sally, a bit of a christmas cold. i'm over it, it is gone. i am telling you to do one. you have a blind date voice. have i? you know what i mean? someone with a low voice... will it be number three? i

6:11 am
to sixth in a highly congested premiership table. and rory mcilroy‘s year hasn't got off to the best of starts. the northern irishman could only finish fourth at the season opening sentry tournament of champions in hawaii. you say that my voice sounds good. you say that my voice sounds good. you were not watching when i have to snort on air. that wasn't good. i was breathing in and it came out. snort on air. that wasn't good. i was breathing in and it came outlj was breathing in and it came outlj was here at the start of this whole. .. it was was here at the start of this whole... it was christmas eve. christmas eve, yeah. did you miss your christmas dinner? yes. i bet a lot of you feel at that this morning. you are a bit lurgyish, today? i thought i would be, morning. you are a bit lurgyish, today? ithought i would be, buti have short it. yes. keep awayjust in case. i don't need breakfast cold. it is a cosy monday morning. look at this. you have ruined it, look. you have ruined it. i'll go that way. good morning, carol. good
6:12 am
morning. there is a lot of the lurgy a round. but this morning it is a mild start to the day. it will turn much more windy through the day, especially across the northern half of the country, northern scotland, parts of central scotland will have gales, even possibly severe gales. and there is some rain in the forecast. what is happening is that this area of low pressure moving from the west to the east, taking tightly packed isoba rs from the west to the east, taking tightly packed isobars and weather front here bit, so the weather front is producing some rain, the tightly packed isobars is producing some rain, the tightly packed isoba rs mean is producing some rain, the tightly packed isobars mean it will be windy, it will be windy wherever you are. the strongest winds that bit further north. you will also see there is quite a bit of cloud around, producing some patchy rain as the front moves south. you can see there is not a lot on it. more rain coming into the north is well and those are the kind of wind gusts you can expect. so across the western northern ireland is,
6:13 am
northern scotland, gusting to gale force, but severe gales possible as we push further north. temperature—wise, we are in good shape, fairly mild, but of course tempered by the wind. as we head through the evening and overnight, there goes the low pressure, but on there goes the low pressure, but on the back edge still very windy. there will be some clearance in the sky. we will also see areas of cloud, which could be thick enough for some drizzle. temperature—wise, we could be lower at this time in january, however it will still be a night if you are out late. we have a weather front, warm front, night if you are out late. we have a weatherfront, warm front, trying night if you are out late. we have a weather front, warm front, trying to come from the west, so trying to cling onto this mild air indicated by the yellow, but we have all of this blue to start the day tomorrow. so if you are stepping out early on, it will be nippy. tomorrow we have a northerly. the other thing is with the new moon and the high tides, and the new moon and the high tides, and the strong wind, we could see some large waves, for example, on the coastline of east anglia. a lot of dry weather, a fair bit of sunshine,
6:14 am
no heat wave in prospect. the weather front to the west introducing thicker cloud and some patchy rain. as we go through tuesday night into wednesday, look at how the temperature drops. the blue hues indicate the lower temperatures and some frost returning to the charts. so, first thing on wednesday morning, these are the kind of temperature values to greet you if you are just eating out, and we also have more cloud to the west with some patchy, light rain and drizzle on it. as we go through the day, that won't make much progress to the east. in the west, take your brolly because you will need it. brolly time, thank you very much, so you shortly, thank you. let's have a look at some of the front pages of papers well. this is the front page of the mirror this morning. a mugshot of wayne rooney fills the front page of the daily mirror.
6:15 am

6:22 am
countdown, we remember that big vote on eu withdrawal agreement was postponed. why? well, the prime minister concluded if she pushed ahead with it, it was doomed and so, it was kicked along until the new year. and you mightjust remember it had not been clear what was going to happen for quite sometime. people like me are paid, to have insight and foresight in hindsight about these things, and be to project where we are going to go. to be quite honest, looking at things right now, i have not got the foggiest idea what is going to happen in the coming weeks. good morning and welcome to brexit. theresa may vows to fight on as she survives a crucial leadership challenge. that was a moment, wasn't it, of extraordinary drama and jeopardy? and four august team pulling out of the years that people like me, theresa may survived and so

popular here as well, very popular series, she was hosting the show as well and did pretty good job. what's interesting about the golden globes is that they are usually full of surprises. tonight was no different. perhaps the biggest surprise was the night was bohemian rhapsody winning best drama. i think a lot of people had expected it to go to a a star is born with lady gaga. that wasn't to be, rahim malik, doing well in hollywood. maybe that's a reflection of the people who vote for the golden globes, foreign journalists working in hollywood, so very different voting pool to the oscars. it doesn't necessarily mean what happened tonight will be repeated in a few weeks' time. peter, we will let you go to bed. i imagine it has been quite a long night. let you go to bed. i imagine it has been quite a long nightlj let you go to bed. i imagine it has been quite a long night. i love a tux either. he looks so smart. --

6:41 am
in the us, where rooney now plays? let's get the latest from pablo maurer, who is soccer reporter for the athletic. thank you very much for coming on the programme. you call it soccer, we call it football. let's get that out of the way early on. tell us what more we know. i know there's not many details. do you have any more? not particularly, i mean, i have just taken a flight back from dubai, —— he hadjust have just taken a flight back from dubai, —— he had just taken have just taken a flight back from dubai, —— he hadjust taken a have just taken a flight back from dubai, —— he had just taken a flight back from dubai, had a few drinks on the plane, was struggling to sleep, had prescribed sweep a share and was in pretty bad shape when he got off the plane —— had prescribed sleep medication and. at that point they took him into custody and put him in what they called the drunk tank in the us for a few hours. and they released him. he went to court and
6:42 am
paid a fine. from a legal standpoint, it is already taken care of. taken care of from a legal standpoint. i wonder what the impact will be from us soccer fans and fans of dc united. what do you make of that? i don't know how much it moves the needle. i am sure there are people who are upset by that. an upset by that behaviour. at least in this country, it would have been different if he had gotten a gui, like drunk driving, —— dui. or if he was involved in a physical altercation with someone. this is the fourth degree misdemeanour over here, it is really one step above a speeding ticket. so i don't know. i think he has endeared himself to fa ns think he has endeared himself to fans of dc united. obviously it is coming offa fans of dc united. obviously it is coming off a great year. i really don't think that this will cause some sort of mass outrage among the
6:43 am
united fans, fans of mls. that is the question, will it harm his career in the us? i know that people in the uk have followed what he has been doing. he has been an incredible success in mls, hasn't he? he has. in particular, he has been a role model in the locker rooms, doing the extra work, taking younger players under his wing. that is the kind of stuff that fans love. and i think fans of major league soccer are used to big name players coming here and maybe acting too good for the league, or expecting to receive special treatment. he plays coach with the team, he has endeared himself to fans. so obviously, additionally, he was a smashing success on the field as well, which obviously helps. really good to talk to you, thank you for your time. i
6:44 am
am mesmerised by the shells behind you as well. how many children have you as well. how many children have you got? i am at a friend's house and he writes children's books and all kinds of other stuff. he is an artist and he has zero kids. there is the inspiration behind you. thank you. it is really distracting in some ways, and fascinating. fascinating at the same time, yes. i was listening to what he was saying. anyway. let's catch up with carol, hopefully her computer is working this morning. hopefully! happy belated new year. this morning it is not particular cold for the time of year. you will find increasingly it will turn guindy, especially further north you travel. and we have some rain in the forecast, some of us have it, some of us will get it later on. you can see why. we have weather fronts moving south, later on. you can see why. we have
6:45 am
weatherfronts moving south, they are bringing rain. as they wrap around this area of low pressure, more rain in the north—west scotland, and the isa buyers tell you it will be windy. so, windy wherever you are, strongest further north where you travel, the met office has a weather warning in force for parts of teesside, the northern and western isles, and these are the winds you can expect, damaging, disruptive further north you travel. the other thing is there are some big waves from the strong winds. more rain across the north—west. the weather front will ta ke north—west. the weather front will take some patchy rain with it. quite a bit of cloud around, but brightening up a little bit for northern ireland and southern scotla nd northern ireland and southern scotland and northern england later on in the day. temperature—wise, for the time of year, they are pretty good. they will be tempered by the north—westerly wind. through the evening and overnight, still a fair bit of cloud around, more breaks in the sky, so the temperatures will be that bit lower than the nightjust
6:46 am
gone, but still, for the time of year, not too bad. we also have another system just waiting in the wings. you can see the cloud associated with it. this is a warm front. that means we are clinging onto some mild conditions by the skin of our teeth to the west, but through tomorrow morning until about 8am it will be cold if you're going out for a bus, train, 8am it will be cold if you're going out fora bus, train, or hanging around. tomorrow promises to be more sunny than today. it will be windy but not as windy as tonight. and you can see the cloud, bringing in light rain and drizzle. temperatures between five and nine. through tuesday night into wednesday, watch how the blue hues start to return to the charts. it is going to be cold. this indicates we are looking at a frosty start to the day in the west. we will have a bit more cloud out towards the east. that will be bringing in some showers. all of
6:47 am
this northerly wind here. as we go through the course of wednesday, we have this cloud, one or two showers, then a bright slice of some sunshine, then the weather front out towards the west, that will produce thicker cloud and some splashes of rain and those are the temperatures. so don't put away your woolly goodies. i haven't. thank you. there's more bad news this morning for the uk car industry. nina's got all the information for us. it is not the brightest start the new for them. no, it is not, it is not. we've had a fair few negative headlines recently about british carmaking. as brexit worries linger, lots of big companies are making fewer vehicles. today, we've learned that they're selling fewer too. according to the society of motor manufacturers and traders — that's the body that represents the car industry, overall sales of new vehicles fell by 7% to 2.3 million, that's a second year of decline. but if you break that down a bit, diesel car sales were down by nearly a third.
6:48 am
however, the sale of what are known as alternative fuel vehicles, electric and hybrid cars, actually went up by around a fifth. so what's going on? let's ask mike hawes, the boss of the smmt, which compiled these figures. he's in our london newsroom. a very good morning to you. morning. at the moment, a knee—jerk reaction to any crisis in consumer confidence is to blame brexit what it is a much more complicated picture than that. absolutely, there is the temptation to blame brexit. of course we have not left yet, what we have been seeing over the past two years is a gradual decline in business and consumer confidence, especially if you're going to purchase a big—ticket item, like a new car. adding to that some uncertainty over diesel, is an regulatory changes which meant the supply of vehicles was produced in the second half of the year, that is the main reason in that drop in the performance in the
6:49 am
overall market. emission scandal as well is causing those numbers to change as well. yeah, the growth of battery hybrids and so forth is there, it is about 20%. it is not going as quickly as we need. you have seen the market declined as far as diesel by about 20%. that was due toa as diesel by about 20%. that was due to a lot of uncertainty about what was due to happen as far as legislation changes, there are no bans on diesel and the latest vehicles will not face any sort of restrictions at all, but we want to see greater technology, notjust of those technologies and new technologies like electric, battery technologies like electric, battery technologies like electric, battery technologies like plug—in, because those can help notjust the industry but the society meet its climate change goals, which is significant because the danger is those co2 emissions are going to go the wrong way for continued down the current level. is there a different picture
6:50 am
here, it diesel sales are recovering, if electric sales are disappointing, if consumer confidence is changing, if you say confidence is changing, if you say confidence in those big—ticket items is not turning around, have we fallen out of love with buying a brand—new car? has that sparkling motor gone? no, i don't think so. there is still something incredibly excited about buying a brand—new car, whether people like the new technology, if you economy they get, or the smell of a new vehicle. but not enough to reverse this trend. yeah, we are not pulling off a cliff. still at a relatively good level, we want to see grow and it grow and it is because if we grow new car sales, it is notjust good for the industry be good for the consumer, the environment, adding the new technology on the market and it is good for the exchequer, the public purse, the vehicle excise duty, the vat because of course you do pay tax on the vehicle. anything that encourages the new sales is good, we want to see great encouragement for that. is a
6:51 am
particularly worrying that we have had two years of decline. we know there are 200,000 people employed in there are 200,000 people employed in the wider car industry in the uk, we have had warnings from car makers about the invocations of an ideal brexit because of the parts will become more expensive to import and then the cars become more expensive to sell abroad. can you see any exciting green shoots that could come from brexit in terms of striking any new deals in a wider trade market? it is very hard to say. 80% of what we produce is exported, over half of that goes to the eu. yes, we want to attract more supply chain companies here that they will only be here if the uk manufacturers are growing well and are exporting. we need a deal, without the deal, the just—in—time manufacturing, on which this industry depends, could be halted and that poses a serious threat to the competitiveness of the injury. 0k, the competitiveness of the injury. ok, many thanks. another industry we basically all boils down to brexit,
6:52 am
900,000 ukjobs basically all boils down to brexit, 900,000 uk jobs depend basically all boils down to brexit, 900,000 ukjobs depend on the car market. thank you very much, thank you. have you taken down your christmas tree? i did spend most of yesterday taking down the christmas tree. it is the cleaning after it. if you got a real one, it is the needle. yes, exactly. i did it a few days ago. it had basically disintegrated. an estimated 7 million of them end up in landfill each year, but could there be more effective ways to use them after the festive period? tim muffet has been to find out. we are rapidly leaving christmas behind, but in this river in cumbria, old trees have a new way. we are touching the christmas trees to some logs that we have got at the base of the previous erosion here on the riverbank. in an area prone to flooding, this idea has worked well. as the water level rises, then all
6:53 am
the energies dissipating the christmas tree and itjust prevents erosion behind the christmas tree, from going up the riverbank. is thought around 8 million natural christmas trees are brought in the uk every year, but when it comes to disposing of them, projects like this are not typical. some councils to recycle them, turning them into compost or woodchips but that requires special machinery. it is thought between six and 7 million trees just end up thought between six and 7 million treesjust end up in thought between six and 7 million trees just end up in landfill. compared to the use of other trees, pine needles take a long time to decompose. so, as christmas trees rot, they comparatively give off huge amounts of greenhouse gases such as methane. but at the university of sheffield, cynthia has been experimenting with them. this process co nve rts been experimenting with them. this process converts the pine needles into liquid product. so what you
6:54 am
have done with this process has been taken those pine needles and managed to turn it into the soil in this product here, which can then be used to make other things? exactly. what significance could that have a christmas trees in the future? the significance of this is that we can convert the christmas trees that normally would go to landfill into this useful product. glucose is used asa this useful product. glucose is used as a sweetener in the food industry, ascetic acid is used for the manufacture of pet, adhesives and vinegar. -- paint. researchers in its early stages. the team say recycling christmas trees on a large scale like this is still several yea rs off. scale like this is still several years off. —— the researchers. not that the animals at colchester zoo bothered, for feeding, foraging that the animals at colchester zoo bothered, forfeeding, foraging or playing, staff at the zoo say these leftovers always gratefully received. there you go, now we go. two happy elephants at least. you're watching breakfast. still to come this morning...

is more important than ever. we are in a state of emergency because young people are losing their way. there's a large group of young people, especially young black boys, that are losing their identity. they're getting caught up in things that are not going to allow them to fly, and i think especially as older boys that have gone through many of the similar kind of obstacles, we have got a responsibility to go back and just help them to navigate. a large well used for storing ice in the georgian era has been rediscovered near regent's park. measuring almost ten metres deep, the brick well is thought —— to be the finest example of its kind in the uk. it was used to store ice imported from norway during the 18th and 19th centuries, which was then sold across london. let's take a look at the travel situation now. there is a good service on all tube lines this morning. for drivers, there's no woolwich ferry service because upgrade works have overrun. in central london, the bus lane on park lane remains closed southbound following

6:59 am
ten to 11 celsius. that westerly wind becoming quite brisk as we head through the afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells but always plenty of cloud. it is dropping off to mid single figures for most places. tomorrow morning, still quite breezy but the wind has turned north—westerly. it will drag down cooler air. there should be quite a bit of sunshine around by tomorrow morning, it is grey again but will feel colder. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. now though, it's back to louise and dan. have a lovely morning. bye for now. good morning.

7:01 am
fairly windy day in head today, especially so that further north that you travel with gales or severe gales, also fairly cloudy with some rain and limited brightness. i'll have more details in 15 minutes. good morning. it's monday, 7th january. our top story: nhs leaders will today unveil a long—term plan they say will save half a million lives in england over the next ten years. the government has promised to increase nhs funding by £20.5 billion within five years, earmarking more money for community care and mental health services, while transforming survival rates from some of britain's biggest killers. our health correspondent dominic hughes reports. the health service is treating more people than ever before, but it's struggling in the face of unprecedented demand. so, nhs managers in england, along with health charities, medical royal colleges and patient groups have been working on a plan
7:02 am
for the next decade to try and improve services to ease those pressures. i think it's a really important moment for the nhs, but to plan is to choose. what we need is a plan that's ruthlessly prioritised, that we know could be afforded and that we know we have enough staff to deliver. what we must avoid is a plan that has a very long wish list of overinflated expectations that the nhs can't deliver. the 10—year plan includes the promise of more money for community, gp and mental services. every child with cancer will have their dna tested to identify the most effective treatments. and more patients will be cared for closer to or at home, reducing the pressure on hospitals. lift up with me. and push me away. getting help at home has made all the difference to pauline hogarth. for two decades she's lived with multiple sclerosis. last year an illness meant she was admitted to hospital
7:03 am
for a month, and it's not an experience she would care to it repeat. being in hospital is not nice for anybody, and certainly for that length of time. you need to be in your surroundings, for your mental health i think, as much as anything. nhs leaders claim their plans could save nearly half a million lives over the next decade, and will future proof the health service as it copes with a growing and ageing population. many have welcomed the ambitions, but there are warnings that achieving them will be extremely tough, with labour saying the health service lacks the resources to see the plan through. dominic hughes, bbc news. dominicjoins us live now from a hospital in blackburn. good morning to you. i suppose i could ask you this morning to pick out the most significant changes. yes, good morning. there is a lot in this plan. as i was saying, there is
7:04 am
a lot of extra money for community services, gp practices, mental health, a big push on prevention of diseases like heart disease, earlier detection and better treatment of diseases like cancer. there is an awful lot. if you were to sum it up, there are two elements, firstly, how is the nhs going to spend the £20 billion extra that it was given last summer, which it will have in 2023? but it is also future proofing the health service as it struggles to cope with the growing and ageing population, which is a source of many of the issues we see the health service struggling with at the moment in terms of shortage of beds, people staying longer in hospital than they need to, very busy a&e. so health service managers are trying to work out a way to ensure that the next ten years, the health service is in next ten years, the health service isina next ten years, the health service is in a better place to cope with the growing and ageing population. that is why there is such a big
7:05 am
emphasis on prevention and detection of disease. thank you. that is the lead story this morning. we'll be speaking to nhs england's chief executive simon stevens in just a few minutes. a man will appear before magistrates charged with murder this morning, after a father was stabbed to death in front of his son on a train. our reporter keith doyle is outside staines magistrate's for us this morning. keith, what more can you tell us? what happens today? yes, last friday, lee pomeroy, 51, was travelling from guildford to london with his 14—year—old son. they boarded a train at london road station before 1pm. on thejourney, lee pomeroy was stabbed and died of his injuries. saturday morning, the police raided a flat at farnham in surrey. they arrested two people. one man, darren pencille, has been
7:06 am
charged with murder and possession ofan charged with murder and possession of an offensive weapon. the woman was arrested at the same address, chelsea mitchell, she has been charged with assisting an offender. both of those people will appear here at staines magistrates' court later this morning. thank you. it's emerged the former manchester united and england captain, wayne rooney, was arrested at an airport in washington dc last month for being drunk and abusive. his spokesperson has said he was left disorientated by prescribed sleeping tablets he took on a flight while drinking. the footballer moved to the us last june to take up a 3.5 year contract with dc united. more than 200 mp5 from different political parties have signed a letter to theresa may, urging her to rule out a no—deal brexit. the mps, including both leave and remain supporters, have been invited to meet the prime minister tomorrow. let's get more on this now from our political correspondent iain watson. iain, new year, but really no clear
7:07 am
on where we will be in a week or month on this brexit debate. on where we will be in a week or month on this brexit debatelj on where we will be in a week or month on this brexit debate. i am afraid not. iwish month on this brexit debate. i am afraid not. i wish i could say that we were. extraordinary things. i know we cover the details of the brexit negotiations lot, nothing wrong with that. we are less than three months away from leaving the european union, 81 days, and we still don't have a deal. it is still unclear how it would be negotiated. that is what is concerning those 200 mps, they wrote to the pm to say that the no deal scenario or damage manufacturing industries, they are meeting to discuss this tomorrow. the fundamental problem is the list of 200 mp5 agree they don't want to leave the eu without a deal but they can't agree necessarily on what they should do instead. some of them support the prime minister's deal, some support britain being like norway, staying close to the eu but outside it, and others want another referendum, and want to remain. this
7:08 am
is the difficulty for the pm. at the moment we can't see how she can get a deal through parliament. her partners in government, the dup, once again have restated the fact they won't be supporting it at this stage. they have called the proposals for voiding a hard border toxic and poisonous, so that's going toxic and poisonous, so that's going to be difficult. if it voted down there seems to be no natural majority yet for an alternative. when the prime minister said yesterday we are in uncharted territory, at that point at least she was absolutely right. iain has much to digestive at the start of the new year. plans to tackle possible congestion on routes to dover in the event of a no—deal brexit will be tested today. 150 hgvs will travel the 20—mile route from manston airfield, near ramsgate, to the port of dover from eight o'clock this morning in an attempt to prevent a repeat of scenes like these. hauliers fear a no—deal brexit will create additional border checks, leading to queues of up to 29 miles. the government says it has to prepare for all eventualities.
7:09 am
iam assuming i am assuming that was taken over the summer at some point. it was lovely and dry and sunny. those days are not far away. it's been a great night for british stars at the golden globes in los angeles. olivia colman, christian bale, richard madden and ben whishaw have all picked up awards. the prestigious gala ceremony was hosted by the canadian actress sandra oh, who also picked up her own best actress award for her role in the hit bbc drama killing eve. our north america correspondent dan johnson sent this report from hollywood. bohemian rhapsody. cheering. the story of queen's musical success was crowned best drama, and its lead actor, playing their lead singer, was rewarded. thank you to freddie mercury for giving me the joy of a lifetime. applause. and from queen the band to queen anne, olivia colman had best comedy actress for the favourite, and gave a very

british speech. chuckles. i'm not going to cry, because my entire table will point and laugh at me, because i've been crying all evening. right, ok. hi. thank you for the sandwiches. the winner is, green book. green book won big in a year hollywood promised diversity. three prizes for its tale of 1960s racial segregation. fellow nominees, thank you. from tv, richard madden won best actor for bodyguard. sandra oh. and this year's golden globes co—host was awarded best actress for killing eve. many of these awards are going to big blockbuster studio productions, and there are notable signs of a growing diversity in the characters, the stories, the lives that have been brought to the screen. but there was no real standout winner. so, what it all means
7:11 am
for the oscars, we'll see it next month. well, that is the latest on the golden globes. i am sure we will pick up with olivia colman. golden globes. i am sure we will pick up with olivia colmanm golden globes. i am sure we will pick up with olivia colman. it would be so nice to speak to her about that. it has been a busy year, and playing another queen in the crown. fingers crossed, it would be so nice. let's go back to our top story now, and the government is claiming its long—term plan for the nhs could save up to 0.5 million lives over the next 10 years. the strategy aims to improve the early diagnosis of cancers and will see all children with the disease offered genetic testing. nhs england's chief executive simon stevens joins us now. thank you for coming in. lots to talk to you about this morning. can we start with the headline figure of £20 billion over five years, how will it work in terms of fixing many of the problems our viewers who will be visiting hospital or some other
7:12 am
service will know about? we have marked the 70th anniversary of the nhs. three things have shown themselves, the first is that people in this country are rightly incredibly proud of the nhs. that is mainly because of the work of staff, nurses, doctors and therapist. there is also a lot of pressure across the health service. that is not surprising. we have a growing and ageing population. we have lots of medical advantages we want to take advantage of. as well is that pride and pressure, there's a sense of possibility that services will continue to improve. what we are doing today is setting what that phased improvement will look like over the next ten years based on work with done with a lot of the patients, groups, charities and frontline staff to say what are the practical changes we can bring about. we will talk about changes in about. we will talk about changes in a minute. let's talk about the claim of saving 500,000 lives. how? getting better at prevention. we
7:13 am
will save 150,000 people from having heart attack. we are going to improve cancer care through early diagnosis in particular. cancer survival is the highest it has ever been. but we can do better. here in greater manchester, a really interesting programme giving people with lung problems early scans, and that has detected lung cancer much earlier when you treat it, then it is much more successful. so we will roll back out across the country, for heart attacks, strokes, cancer care. for heart attacks, how do you prevent it, you see your doctor, how can you do that? it is a range of things, for example, a number of people in this country are born with high cholesterol. at the moment, fewer than one in ten people with that condition are tested and know about it. so we will roll out new
7:14 am
types of personalised genetic tests that will reveal that and then people can get the treatment that they would benefit from. it sounds good, but i can hear people shouting at their tv this morning, because even the prime minister said, on those promises, there is failure across the nhs in terms of a&e waiting times, routine operations, cancer diagnosis, those sorts of things are not hitting targets, and one in11 things are not hitting targets, and one in 11 jobs things are not hitting targets, and one in11jobs in things are not hitting targets, and one in 11 jobs in the nhs are not filled at the moment. there are severe problems. are you confident this will address those issues as well? there are huge pressures across the health service and that is the starting point for what the next five and ten years has to deal with. in a sense, some of those pressures a re pressures with. in a sense, some of those pressures are pressures because we area pressures are pressures because we are a victim of success, the success of nhs staff, looking after1 million more people each year now in a knee than five years ago, and, as we do that, we have to continue to recruit and expand the number of
7:15 am
nurses and doctors and staff to look after them. it sounds like you need more money, is £20 billion enough? it will be phased over five years and it is clearly a change from what we have had over the last five yea rs. we have had over the last five years. what we have done is put together a very carefully costed programme to bring about these improvements over the next five yea rs. improvements over the next five years. let's talk about staffing as well, one in 11 not filled at the moment, how will you fill them, five yea rs, moment, how will you fill them, five yea rs , we moment, how will you fill them, five years, we know, it takes a lot longer than that to trainer doctor? we have around 100,000 staff working in the health service now than we did five years ago, but we will need a lot more in the future, so we have to expand the number of nurses that are trained, between one quarter and one half, we have five medical schools coming online now, that will ta ke yea rs schools coming online now, that will take years for them to become doctors, so it is a long—term plan, not a plan for tomorrow or next year, and we have to do a betterjob to look after the stuff we currently have. that is exactly what i wanted
7:16 am
to ask you because you speak to many doctors and nurses in the nhs and you would agree that morale is pretty low? i think it is. why do you keep them then?” pretty low? i think it is. why do you keep them then? i think that pa rt you keep them then? i think that part of the —— of what we have to do is ensure that patients are getting the best support they need. you heard in your package earlier, a woman talking about the support she is now getting now and so not needing to be stuck in hospital. that is one of the biggest decisions we need to make today, to make sure that we have a much faster rate of growth in community nursing services in gp services to help people stay out of hospital and enable them to get home faster. are you going to hit those targets, do you think? the a&e operations counter diagnosis?
7:17 am
are they obtainable and how do you make sure that you obtain those? each year, will be able to have more operations as a result.” understand, but how are you going to hit those targets? as a result, waiting lists are going to come down because of the next five years. coming down. on a&e, the first is that the current target people have all their treatment completed within four hours, actually what top doctors in a nhs are telling us is that actually do some conditions, we need to have a tougher and fast approach because at the moment, that target is not distinguish whether you have a sprained finger or having a stroke. so they are looking at what the right approach should be to make sure that people with sepsis, heart attacks and other conditions get the fastest treatment in a&e and when they have made their recommendations, we will then go about in permitting them, absolutely. as part of this, do you look at recommendations as well? we
7:18 am
do. fortunately, we have one of the most efficient health services in the world. the germans are spending about a third more for their health system as we are, the french are spending about a half more as we do in the nhs. ignore it be more efficient, some of those efficiencies are going to be taking up efficiencies are going to be taking up the redtape across the system, but some of it is by going —— going to be byjoining up the way that the nhs and health services work together to make sure that patients get treatment in a way that works for them best. thank you very much for them best. thank you very much for joining for them best. thank you very much forjoining us. the nhs has a busy day ahead as well, so thank you very much. thank you. do let us know what you think. we will try and put your questions and comments to our guests later. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. good morning again. good morning. todayis good morning again. good morning. today is not a particularly cold
7:19 am

7:20 am
it for this stage in january north, is not too bad on the face of it for this stage injanuary but it will be tempered by the westerly wind. it is still going to be windy overnight, there is still a fair bit of cloud around that can see where we are looking at the breaks in the cloud. tomorrow morning, we start off on cloud. tomorrow morning, we start offona cloud. tomorrow morning, we start off on a colder note on this morning. towards the west, and more cloud around. that is our warm front trying to come in. the air mass charts, we have gone up towards the west yellows, indicating milder conditions that still the blues across central and eastern areas. tomorrow is still windy, not quite as windy as windy yesterday but with the new moon and spring tides, we could seize large winds especially on the coastline of east anglia. further sunshine around, weather front up to the west still producing some cloud and patchy rain. under clear skies by night, it does mean quite clearly the temperature will drop as indicated by the blue hues returning to the rest of the uk. we're looking at quite a bit of

frosty start today and wednesday morning the equally when the sun gets up, there will be quite a of sunshine. however, out towards the east with a northerly winds, we are looking at it more cloud. inner west, we have got another front which is more cloud and some patchy light rain. so the course of wednesday, that process continues. wednesday, that process continues. we have got the front fairly slowly moving to western fringes of the uk, taking its cloud with it. still bright skies ahead, cloud in the east, it is still a fair bit of cloud coming in with wind and just the odd shower and feeling cold. thank you, carol. let's take a look at today's papers. so we start with the daily mirror for you? they so we start with the daily mirror for you ? they have so we start with the daily mirror for you? they have front page of wayne rooney, this is a story that came out late last month. it's emerged he was arrested at an airport in the us for public intoxication.
7:22 am
we have spoken to someone in the us who says that will not really affect his career there at all, he says it is like one up from a parking ticket. the daily mail also runs that picture, its main story is the claim from the nhs that half a million lives will be saved as a result of a long term plan for the health service. we have just been speaking to the loss in the last couple of minutes or so. at the top of the page, you can see dr michael mosley and his new 800 calorie diet. he'll be here in the studio later on to explain what it's all about. i think we have even got some exa m ples of i think we have even got some examples of what 800 calories might look like. yes, it is not much. the telegraph focuses on one element of the nhs plan, talking about genetic tests will be offered to all children with cancer. and there's olivia colman. she was successful last night for her role as queen the deep favourite. —— the favourite.

she's with the co—star of her movie "the favourite" emma stone. and the times also features the stars of that film. the story at the top of the page claims one in four christmas presents bought online will be sent back. that is interesting. and the most—read story on the bbc website overnight is the golden globes. ben wishaw has also done well, richard madden for bodyguard, olivia colman and bohemian rhapsody, which surprised many of the critics. it is 7:23 a.m.. the other thing that has happened quite a bit over the weekend is loads of people asking about an update on tony foulds, you might have seen on breakfast last week. he had this incredible story to tell. he was in that —year—old boy in barking in sheffield, when an american bomber crashed in the part, and avoided tone and a number of children who in the park and houses.
7:24 am
incredible job children who in the park and houses. incrediblejob by children who in the park and houses. incredible job by the children who in the park and houses. incrediblejob by the pilots, and all ten of the men on board died that nobody else died in the park, which was an incredible feat. tony, ever since there, has obviously thought a lot about this and thought 75 years since then has been looking after the memorial. —— and 475 since then. he has been doing it quietly. no more, since you got involved. he's been doing it ever since the late 1960s and then it has kicked off, so we spoke, we put him on reckless. this is him yesterday. he normally does it on his own with my one else there. this was the crowd who turned up to see the memorial in sheffield and meet tony as well. we've had calls from the us air force, i have been speaking to mp5 about getting steps sorted out. we cannot confirm anything yet that up in the air, quite literally, tony would like a flypast on the 75th

7:26 am
to him. and i am going on about it that the major thing about tone as he does not want anything for himself, it has wants people to remember those ten men who he says saved his life. he says without them, he would not have had children or life, so he says he owes them everything. while this soon, as soon as we get good news. we'll get the first glimpse of how some aspects of life might look look if we leave the eu without a deal later this morning, 150 lorries are going to part in a no—deal brexit rehearsal. the hgvs will assemble at a disused airfield in kent, as part of plans to tackle possible congestion on routes to dover. simonjones is there for us this morning. what exactly is happening there today? good morning. well, this is all about testing how the road network might cope in the event of an ideal brexit. in this scenario, the disused airport behind me, scores of lorries, which you can see are just
7:27 am
starting to line up now and the ideas come a shower they are going to be thrown out onto the road to see how the system copes. what could possibly go wrong? well, that is what the government intends to find out. why is this necessary? there are theories that it leaves without are theories that it leaves without a deal, there could be real congestion at the port zip additional lorry checks introduced. there could be queues stretching back for about 30 miles. —— is. the government is looking at how to take lorries off the road. this is how it is likely to pan out, we expect the lorries to start leading from the airport side at around about eight o'clock, heading towards the port of dover. it will not go non—stop there, they will be held in a holding area near the airport to try and regulate the flow before going on the port and then after that, they will come back you for a second rehearsal. all eyes on that to see how it will go. simon, thank you. it is approaching 7:30 a.m.. still to

7:31 am
into the afternoon, maybe a few spots of drizzle towards northern home counties in particular, but otherwise staying dry with temperatures just nudging double figures, ten to 11 celsius. and that westerly wind becoming quite brisk as we head through the afternoon. overnight tonight, there'll be some clear spells but always plenty of cloud. temperatures dropping off to mid single figures for most places. tomorrow morning, it's still quite breezy but the wind has turned north—westerly. it will drag down some cooler air. there should be quite a bit of sunshine around by wednesday, it is grey again but will feel colder. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. now though, it's back to louise and dan. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. nhs leaders will today unveil a long—term plan they say will save half a million lives in england over the next ten years. the government has promised to increase annual nhs funding by 20

chances and gave them a run for their money. they are third in the championship and we have beaten them at their ground. championship and we have beaten them at theirground. so... championship and we have beaten them at their ground. so... so happy, so happy. no chance of an upset at the etihad. the second 7—0 thrashing of the weekend. manchester city were ruthless against rotherham united. seven difference scorers too. and you can see if the likes of barnet, oldham and gillingham get one of the big guns on bbc one tonight — the draw will take place during live coverage of wolves against liverpool. the winter break is over in the women's super league and arsenal have extended their lead at the top. they had to come from behind to beat west ham 4—2. two second half goals from danielle van de donk sealed the win. second placed man city could only draw at bristol city. tottenham ladies defender renee hector says she received racist abuse from a sheffield united player during their game yesterday. sheffield united women said they've begun an investigation. johanna konta has suffered an injury setbackjust a week before the start of the australian open. konta — who is ranked

7:41 am
banned. you ignore that. they are my favourites. the bird shirt. i like a bit of floral as well. thank you, see you later. over the christmas period, the b word was kept to a minimum, but it's back to brexit business today as mp5 return to westminster. theresa may has promised there will be a meaningful vote this month on her brexit deal, but as you all know, we've been here before. it's got some people feeling like groundhog day, as chris mason reports. # then put your little hand in mine. # there ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb... good morning. welcome to breakfast. i'm naga munchetty. parliament is reeling from theresa may's decision to delay the crucial vote on her brexit deal. you will remember the big vote on the eu withdrawal agreement was postponed. why? well, the pm concluded if she
7:42 am
pushed ahead with it it was doomed, so it was kicked a long until the new year. you might remember it wasn't meant to happen for quite sometime. people like me are paid to have insight and foresight and hindsight about these things, and to project where we are going to go. to be quite honest, looking at things right now, i haven't got the foggiest idea what is going to happen in the coming weeks. good morning and welcome to breakfast with dan walker and naga munchetty. theresa may vows to fight on as she survives a crucial leadership challenge. that was a moment, wasn't it, of extraordinary drama and jeopardy? but for all of the steam pouring out of the ears of people like me, theresa may survived, and so actually nothing changed. and despite the worst fears of people like me, theresa may survived, and so actually, nothing changed. and remember, all this turbulence matters. there is a huge amount at stake. the future direction of the country.
7:43 am
# then put your little hand in mine. # there ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb... so, mps are heading back to westminster today, and so after a few weeks where the b word didn't feature quite so prominently in the news, brexit is bursting back. the papers are full of political pieces again, mps full of opinions will be ‘irating' them again, as the debate gets under way in the commons, again. the big vote on the eu withdrawal agreement will be next week, and as things stand, we are due to leave the european union in 11 and a bit weeks' time at 11pm at night on friday the 29th of march, but if the prime minister's deal is rejected, no—one — and i mean no—one — can tell you with certainty what on earth will happen next. that is a very important question. let's discuss this in more detail now with the daily mirror's political correspondent nicola bartlett, and tom newton—dunn, who's political editor of the sun.
7:44 am
good morning to you both, thank you for coming on breakfast to discuss at this morning. tom, chris mason talking about groundhog day. has much changed over christmas? very little indeed. the little bit of chris mason's excellent commentary you missed out was that mr blobby would have a better idea of telling you what's going to happen next and you what's going to happen next and you have two mr blobbies in front of the other moment, nothing has moved on substantially and the prediction game is equally disastrous. what hasn't happened is what the prime minister desperately hoped would happen, it that is mps sitting at home, sobering up despite the christmas sherry, and thinking, let's get on with this, that her deal and turned the page. the mentalities of her tory mp critics on the backbenches are still very much against her, and crucially for her the eu, despite three weeks of begging from the prime minister, haven't come up with any thick substantial at all on the backstop,
7:45 am
so that could move this week. we expect something from the eu. it certainly won't be enough, so that, and a couple of measures the prime minister will come up with will be enough for a few mps, but i think nowhere near and after allowed to get the deal through a week tomorrow. i enjoyed your sideways look at tom when he refer to you as mr blobby. it was wrong of me to judge my colleague, i am mr blobby. cani judge my colleague, i am mr blobby. can i ask you about those clarifications tom mentioned, will they be enough? no, i think it is already factored in to most of westminster‘s mind that there will be something, that has been anticipated. the point is that the eu can only go so far. they can't change the wording of the withdrawal agreement, because it has been agreed by the whole eu, the whole 27
7:46 am
member states, so this idea that anything substantial could change is wishful thinking at this point. there might be a few mps willing to persuade, but i think the thinking now is how many mps vote against the prime minister, it is how much she loses, rather than if she loses the vote, and there is some suggestion that she almost needs to lose it to force the eu's hand to go in and really consider actual change to what has been agreed so far. can i asked the pair of you? tom, will come to you on this first. do it if you think there is any party out there that can negotiate a better deal than what is on offer? think he started the whole thing going back two years, the answer is yes, you probably could. theresa may has wasted a substantial amount of time trying to establish a brexit that was never going to last, that
7:47 am
included all of her red lines and at the same time, a huge amount of access. i think she started off fairly unreasonable in that. —— i think. the other problem was that the conservative party was entirely unable to agree on what to ask for. six months ago, chequers came out as the prime minister's plan. it was far too late to get any kind of meaningful purchase. i think you could do a better negotiation and get a little bit more but i fundamentally agree that the basics of getting market certainty and access of getting market certainty and a ccess was of getting market certainty and access was or is going to force change on us, and i do not think that will change massively. nicola? yes, i think that the real change for theresa may when she became prime minister, the alternative was to have almost a national conversation about what brexit was and what brexit could be. there are lots of accusations on both sides
7:48 am
about wishful thinking about brexit and the idea that you can, at the ca ke and the idea that you can, at the cake and eat it idea that the eu have levelled at us and that is part of the problem. she came in and put in this very difficult red lines to try and appease her party and her divided cabinet and she really has not done the groundwork. there was some discussion before christmas about having tv debates or the possibility of indicative vote within parliament about what mp5 wanted, that is something that should have been done almost two years ago now. itjust should have been done almost two years ago now. it just feels like she has really not understood how, almost howl parliament and politics works in this regard. in parliament is starting to flex its muscles and that will be really interesting to see in the next few weeks, i think, how mp5 are starting to see how they can use parliamentary mechanisms to hold the government to account. —— and. ok, very, very quickly. at one
7:49 am
a nswe rs and. ok, very, very quickly. at one answers and both of you on this. a renegotiation, a further referendum, vote of no confidence, leadership change will vote of no deal. —— or no deal. practically, which of those using his in any way likely?” no deal. practically, which of those using his in any way likely? i have got to pick? i think, believe it or not and this is not an equivocation ofa not and this is not an equivocation of a political answer, i think the market will open. this place will have an almighty threshing out session, it will whittle down vote up session, it will whittle down vote up to vote at the bike is at prime minister's deal not come. i suspect it will still be a vote but it will be considerably watered down, it may even have a customs union slapped on top of it. —— vote. even have a customs union slapped on top of it. -- vote. nicola, very quickly. i think this side of christmas, the prospect of a second referendum looks more likely than it ever has done in the first time, i think i would countenance that happening. thank very much. it really is no clearer. they have done their best to assess that for us.
7:50 am
there is no doubt we'll be discussing this for the next weeks, months, etc. and thank you to them for trying to get things into a clearer picture, that we will see, shall we? the next few weeks should be interesting. hell knows exactly what is going on in the weather, don't you? good morning. ithought you're going to put me on the spot there. the weather is mild for this of year. we have also got a fair bit of year. we have also got a fair bit of cloud around and it is going to be windy, increasingly so, with the strongest winds bring across the far north of scotland. in addition to that, we have got some rain. look at the isobars wrapped around this area of light pressure, which is telling us it is going to be wet in the north and it is also going to be extremely windy here with gales or severe gales and some large waves as well. they are on and off across northern and western scotland through the day, as up to weather front syncs up across england and wales and much of northern ireland, they will take patchy rain with
7:51 am
them. —— sync across. these are the kind of values we can expect especially with the exposure, so if you are travelling, bear that in mind. tricky travelling conditions, potentially too, there could well be some power cuts here and there. we are in pretty good shape and of course, the temperature will be tempered by the wind. as we head onto the evening and into the open eyes, still a fair bit of cloud, moving away across to scandinavia. —— the low pressure. it is going to be cold night, in fact hold an office in in the west. we also are looking at a weather front out towards the west, which will help keep the temperature is at the touch in the west. so milder air in the west as indicated by the arrows, colder as indicated by the loos in this chart, still around eight in the morning. there will be sunshine around but it will be cold, it won't
7:52 am
be as windy tomorrow either and with more of a northerly flow, more car coming in from the north sea with some showers but the other thing, we've had some new —— we have a new movements in spring tides, so there will likely be some waves crashing around east anglia. some sunshine, he was a weather front producing some clouds and patchy, light rain and as we head into the overnight period, look how the louvre used return to the chart. once again under clear skies, it is going to be cold. these are the kind of temperature values you can expect in towns and cities, in rural areas of course, it will be colder than this. the rest of wednesday, they carry on with card coming in from across the north sea, across eastern counties and there is a weather front coming from the west, like insure movement. that is introducing cloud and also some rain. most of which will be fairly light. —— like a pincher movement. temperatures turning that bit colder. it really is, thank you
7:53 am
very much. see shortly. thank you. there's more bad news this morning for the uk car industry. nina's been looking into this one for us. it is not good news. happy new year. no, happy new year. it is that the word again. —— bword. we've had a fair few negative headlines recently about british carmaking as brexit nears. today, we've had an update on exactly how many cars were sold last year. according to the society of motor manufacturers and traders — that's the body that represents the car industry, overall sales of new vehicles fell by 7% to 2.36 million last year. making it a second year of decline. but if you break things down a bit, diesel car sales were down by nearly a third. but the sale of what are known as alternative fuel vehicles — electric and hybrid cars — were actually up by around a fifth. with me now is rachel burgess, the news editor of autocar and what car? very good morning to you. good morning. we spoke to the person
7:54 am
behind this research earlier, he said we have not fallen out of love with cars. we still want a new car and yet the figures tell a different tale, the years of decline after six yea rs of tale, the years of decline after six years of increasing percentage growth. that is worrying. i think last year was really a perfect storm. we had a few factors at play, as you mentioned the brexit uncertainty. we are all very familiar with that at this stage, there were other factors too, diesel negativity, uncertainty around diesel engines because of the supposedly negative impact they have on the environment. and then finally, something else which had a really big impact on the supply coming into the country and that was the new regulations that came in in september which meant that all car makers had to meet new emissions test and that some of them did not manage to do it by september because there was such a massive influx and that meant there was a real supply shortage and that has had a massive impact on sales as well. so less simply, impact on sales as well. so less supply, lest demand has continued too. we know now that almost 80% of
7:55 am
ca rs are too. we know now that almost 80% of cars are leased, so it is almost like a mortgage agreement, where you can either buy it at the end, trade up can either buy it at the end, trade up move on. what impact has that had? you up move on. what impact has that had ? you would up move on. what impact has that had? you would think it would have an impact on new car sales. yes, it is very unlikely even if we have a bad 2019 due to factors that we can't control, compared to save 2007, 2008 when there was a credit crunch, we are very 2007, 2008 when there was a credit crunch, we are very unlikely to see a decline to that extent because the leasing helps protect the market. the action without that, these figures could actually a lot worse. do you think there is something to be said for the fact that older cars stay in circulation a bit longer, that people can buy a second—hand car that will last ten years now and that did not use to be the case? i think carmakers are definitely looked at reliability, it is something that they want to be part of and boost about. but technology
7:56 am
is moving at such pace that a lot of people want to get newer cars as well. we were talking about an increase in hybrid and electric cars last year, what new models are we going to see on the market this year there going to in your opinion boost sales ? there going to in your opinion boost sales? so there are a lot of new ca rs sales? so there are a lot of new cars this year. for this year, we have a bumper pack year. there are really iconic cars like the new vw golf, the new bmw three series, the latest generation of the range rover evoke, than this and juke. there is a really exciting thing is coming, so really affordable cars coming into play. they are really accessible. —— nissan juke. into play. they are really accessible. —— nissanjuke. for example there is a car already on sale for about £30,000, the new kia. they might be a bit more accessible in the electric market. almost1 billionjobs in in the electric market. almost1 billion jobs in uk in the electric market. almost1 billionjobs in uk depend on it. thank you very much, thank you. coming up, talking new year's, new diets and dr michael mosley. how is
7:57 am
800 calories a day sound to you? does not sound like a lot. you can have as mashed avocado and dark rye bread and then passed and pesto salad. that takes is 785, on day one. i count only two neils there. you're right. that is they want. —— day one. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. i'm tolu adeoye. the mayor is being urged to give more information about plans for the ultra—low emission zone, which will see greater charges for driving in the capital in three months time. the federation of small businesses says more than 60% of businesses believe their operating costs will increase as a result of the scheme. transport for london says pollution is a public health crisis, which it's committed to tackling, and it's working to support businesses in preparation for the new zone. a londoner who survived being stabbed seven times has had his experience made into a short film. amani premiered on friday

8:00 am
northern home counties in particular, but otherwise staying dry with temperatures just nudging double figures, ten to 11 celsius. and that westerly wind becoming quite brisk as we head through the afternoon. overnight tonight, there'll be some clear spells but always plenty of cloud. temperatures once more dropping off to mid single figures for most places. tomorrow morning, it's still quite breezy but the wind has turned north—westerly. it will drag down some cooler air. there should be quite a bit of sunshine around by wednesday, it is grey again but will feel colder. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. now though, it's back to louise and dan. bye for now. good morning and welcome to breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today... half a million lives to be saved over ten years. nhs leaders say their new long—term plan will have more focus on prevention.

8:02 am
you travel, where there will be gales to severe gales. it will be mostly cloudy with spots of rain and limited brightness. more weather in 15 minutes. it's monday 7th january. our top story... nhs leaders will today unveil a long—term plan they say will save half a million lives in england over the next ten years. the government has promised to increase annual nhs funding by £20 billion within five years, earmarking more money for community care and mental health services, while transforming survival rates from some of britain's biggest killers. our health correspondent dominic hughes reports. the health service is treating more people than ever before, but it's struggling in the face of unprecedented demand. so, nhs managers in england, along with health charities, medical royal colleges and patient groups have been working on a plan for the next decade to try and improve services and to ease those pressures. i think it's a really important moment for the nhs, but to plan is to choose.
8:03 am
what we need is a plan that's ruthlessly prioritised, that we know could be afforded and that we know we have enough staff to deliver. what we must avoid is a plan that has a very long wish list of overinflated expectations that the nhs can't deliver. the 10—year plan includes the promise of more money for community, gp and mental health services. every child with cancer will have their dna tested to identify the most effective treatments. and more patients will be cared for closer to or at home, reducing the pressure on hospitals. lift up with me. and push me away. getting help at home has made all the difference to pauline hogarth. for two decades she's lived with multiple sclerosis. last year an illness meant she was admitted to hospitalfor a month, and it's not an experience she would care to repeat. being in hospital is not nice for anybody, and certainly for that length of time. you need to be in your own
8:04 am
surroundings, for your mental health, i think, as much as anything. nhs leaders claim their plans could save nearly half a million lives over the next decade, and will future proof the health service as it copes with a growing and ageing population. many have welcomed the ambitions, but there are warnings that achieving them will be extremely tough, with labour saying the health service lacks the resources to see the plan through. dominic hughes, bbc news. dominicjoins us live now from a hospital in blackburn. what are the most significant changes among these spending plans? well, there's an awful lot to go at in this big, 10—year plan for the future of the nhs in england. better prevention and detection of diseases
8:05 am
like cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, dna testing for children with cancer or rare genetic disorders, a lot of extra money for community services, mental health services, gps services. but i think it boils down to two things, how is the nhs in england going to spend the nhs in england going to spend the extra money it got in the summer, the £20.5 billion that it will have extra by 2023? and secondly, how does the nhs future proof itself and learn to cope with this rowing and ageing population which underpins many of the issues the nhs is facing at the moment? hospitals are struggling to have enough bed the patients, a&es very busy, all those issues we talk about so often. so it is those two elements i think which really sum up his ten year plan. i think it is worth adding also that the devolved regions and nations, wales, scotland
8:06 am
and northern ireland, get about an extra £4 billion a year between them by 2023 as well, so it will be up to them as well to come up with their own forward plans for the next ten yea rs own forward plans for the next ten years for their own systems.” own forward plans for the next ten years for their own systems. i know we are getting plenty of comments about that story this morning. we will be putting some of those and speaking with the shadow health secretary at about half past eight this morning. a man will appear before magistrates charged with murder this morning after a father was stabbed to death in front of his son on a train. our reporter keith doyle is outside staines magistrates' court for us this morning. what happens today? yes, good morning. last friday 51—year—old lee pomeroy was travelling to london with his 14—year—old son from guildford. british transport police say they got on a train shortly before one o'clock at london road
8:07 am
station in guildford and during that journey mr pomeroy was stabbed and died of his injuries. on saturday morning the police raided a flat at farnham in surrey and arrested two people, 35—year—old darren pencille with an address in farnham, was arrested and charged with murder and also with possessing an offensive weapon. a woman who was also arrested at the same address, 27—year—old chelsea mitchell, has been charged with assisting an offender. both of these people are expected to appear here at staines magistrates' court later this morning. thank you. it's emerged that the former manchester united and england captain wayne rooney was arrested at an airport in washington dc last month for being drunk and abusive. his spokesperson has said he was left "disorientated" by prescribed sleeping tablets he took on a flight while drinking. the footballer moved to the us last june to take up a three—and—a—half year contract with dc united. more than 200 mp5 from different political parties have signed a letter to theresa may, urging her to rule out a no—deal brexit.
8:08 am
the mps, including both leave and remain supporters, have been invited to meet the prime minister tomorrow. let's get more on this now from our political correspondent iain watson. iain, icould iain, i could take anything i have thrown to you over the last three months or so — it is a big week for the prime minister?! yes, since the last big week! and neck tweet will be even bigger because on the 15th of january, if it is to be believed, she will have her meaningful vote on this issue. but at the moment there has been a lot of activity here at westminster but not much movement. there is does 200 or so mps, 209, who are urging the prime minister to avoid a no deal scenario on brexit, they have written a letter to her saying it would be disastrous for manufacturing industry. but when you are at those names on the list,
8:09 am
although they all say they don't wa nt to although they all say they don't want to leave the eu without a deal, they're divided over what they want to be put in place. some of them wa nt to be put in place. some of them want another referendum, others want us to be a bit more like norway, close to the eu but outside it. some actually favoured the prime minister's deal itself. then you have further advice for the prime minister from have further advice for the prime ministerfrom borisjohnson, have further advice for the prime minister from boris johnson, urging her to stick with no deal as a default option! so she certainly has lots of people saying different things to her. the question is, what happens if her deal doesn't go through? the problem here i think in westminster is that there is no natural majority for any tenet of. so this week she's going to be meeting her own mps, and cross—party mps tomorrow, to try to convince them that if they really do want a deal, then hers is the only show in town. it's been a great night for british stars at the golden globes in los angeles. olivia colman, christian bale, richard madden and ben whishaw have all picked up awards.
8:10 am
the prestigious gala ceremony was hosted by the canadian actress sandra oh, who also picked up her own best actress award for her role in the hit bbc drama killing eve. our north america correspondent dan johnson sent this report from hollywood. bohemian rhapsody... cheering. the story of queen's musical success was crowned best drama, and its lead actor, playing their lead singer, was rewarded, too. thank you to freddie mercury for giving me the joy of a lifetime. applause. and from queen the band to queen anne, olivia colman won best comedy actress for the favourite, and gave a very british speech. chuckles. i'm not going to cry, because my entire table will point and laugh at me, because i've been crying all evening. right, 0k. hi. thank you for the sandwiches. the winner is, green book. green book won big in a year hollywood promised diversity.
8:11 am
three prizes for its tale of 1960s racial segregation. from tv, richard madden won best actor for bodyguard. there was more british success for ben wishaw in a very english scandal. sandra oh! and this year's golden globes co—host was awarded best actress for killing eve. many of these awards are going to big blockbuster studio productions, and there are notable signs of a growing diversity in the characters, the stories, the lives that have been brought to the screen. but there was no real standout winner. so, what it all means for the oscars, we'll see it next month. you get the feeling it is awards season, don't you? yes, we have to talk about the oscars, don't we, shortly! not that that's bad! let's go back to our top story now, the government's claim that its long—term plan for the nhs
8:12 am
could save up to half a million lives over the next ten years. they'll set out ambitious proposals to transform the health service — but will there be enough cash, or staff, to make them work? saffron cordery, of nhs providers, which manages nhs trusts, joins us now. thank you very much forjoining us. we were speaking to the chief executive earlier, who was saying about this 500,000 lives they are hoping to save because of measures like prevention — do you think that isa like prevention — do you think that is a realistic figure? it's really important that we focus on prevention. it is open to discussion as to whether that is a realistic figure or not. i think what we've got to make sure is that we balance our ambition for the nhs, and no—one is more ambitious than nhs trust leaders themselves to achieve as much as possible for patients — with being as realistic as possible about what we can deliver. you talk about being as realistic as possible, are you concerned by some of these
8:13 am
plans, do you think they are not real, then? i don't think they're not real but we need to focus on what we can really deliver, we need to look at how we use the £20.5 billion extra which has been given to the nhs, which is incredibly welcome, to make sure that we recover the financial performance of nhs trusts and we make sure that trusts can achieve the performance targets that have been set for them. that's the number one challenge out raqqa what about staffing? we did talk to him about staffing and investment in new doctors and nurses and also about trying to keep staff as well — is there enough concentration on that, from your point of view? i think workforce is the number one concern, whenever i go out trusts and talk to chairs and chief executives, they tell us that thatis chief executives, they tell us that that is the number one concern. so absolutely we need to focus on that. we know there are around 100,000
8:14 am
vacancies in the nhs the moment. so it's good that the long—term plan will have an element on workforce in it but what we really need to make sure we do is to focus on some of the short—term measures that we need to seek. so, being able to fill rotor gaps, making sure that we can recruit from across the world do we know that there are many challenges around immigration at the moment and exit, and make sure that we are training enough nurses and doctors and thinking about how we use our staff as flexibly as possible. so, yes, workforce is a real challenge. it is welcome that the long—term plan will focus on that but what we are plan will focus on that but what we a re really plan will focus on that but what we are really waiting for is to workforce strategy, which is long overdue. tell us a bit about this focus on prevention and early diagnosis as well, and the relationship between that and having enough staff presumably to do that? well, i think there are a number of elements. yes, we need to make sure that we've got the staff who are trained to identify prevention
8:15 am
issues and focus on them. but what we've also got to make sure that we do is actually to invest in prevention across the public sector. this is not just prevention across the public sector. this is notjust a health issue, this is about prevention and public health in local councils and local authorities, and we know that their budget has been substantially cut. so yes, it's great that the long—term plan focuses on prevention and it's really important that we do everything we can to support the health of the nation, but there are some really specific services that are delivered by councils that we need to make sure continue. things like drug and alcohol services, looking at keeping people fit and healthy and up on their feet, that's the kind of thing that local authorities do — and they've had their budgets cut. one of the focuses, gps, mental health services and community care, to be guaranteed the biggest increases in funding, in
8:16 am
order, to the plan, to curb the reliance on hospitals — will that help? absolutely that will help. the support for additional mental health services is absolutely welcome and it is long overdue. what we've had for a substantial period is a care deficit across mental health services. i think what we've got to look at is delivering mental health services that really support people who need them. this isn'tjust about keeping demand out of hospital. it's about providing high quality mental health care, particularly two children and young people. i know one of the proposals is about making sure that there's real support for young people when they're at that transition age, 18 and moving into aduu transition age, 18 and moving into adult mental health services, to make sure that they really have the support that they need to. whilst we're looking at these new initiatives for mental health, what we've also got to make sure we do is really invest in the core community
8:17 am
support that mental health services can provide, community mental health teams, which are fundamental. and it is those elements that we need to look at as well. but yes, the additional investment in mental health services is, of course, welcome. but we need to make sure that it keeps up with the pace of change of additional funding across all nhs services. saffron cordery of nhs providers, thanks for your time this morning. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. this morning it is not as cold as it has been at the start of the day. there is a fair bit of cloud about and also some rain but the wind will be the feature today, as it continues to strengthen, touching gales or severe gales across the northern half of the uk. this area of low pressure moving from west to
8:18 am
east, bringing some rain. a cloudy start from many of us. you can see two weather fronts sinking south and another one across the north—west, all producing rain. wherever you are it is going to be a windy day glow but especially across the north of the country. damaging gusts, likely to lead to some travel disruption and possibly some power cuts as well. temperature—wise today, on the face of it it does not look too bad, however, temperature will be tempered by the north—westerly wind. this evening and overnight, there goes the area of low pressure, moving towards scandinavia. it is still going to be a windy night but where we have got breaks in the cloud, the temperature will come down and we are looking at a colder night than the one just gone, with some pockets of frost. towards the west, a new weatherfront some pockets of frost. towards the west, a new weather front producing some cloud and rain. it is a warm front, so we hanging on to the
8:19 am
milder conditions in the west but still pretty cold in central and eastern areas. if you're waiting outside for your transport maybe, you will note is set. but tomorrow will not be as windy yesterday. —— you will notice it. with the northerly breeze coming down the north sea we will have more cloud coming in, which will produce the odd shower. and with a new moon, spring tides, and the wind, we could well see some large waves crashing on shore in east anglia. out towards the west, we still have a weather front producing thick cloud and some spots of rain. heading through the evening and overnight, watch the blue return to the chart. it's going to bea blue return to the chart. it's going to be a cold night in the west especially, with some frost. in rural areas temperatures will be lower than this. starting off on wednesday on a cloudy note in some western areas and also some eastern areas as he going through the day we
8:20 am
hang on to this cloud in the east, the odd shower coming in on the breeze. out towards the west, the weather front edges closer, bringing some rain to scotland. temperatures nothing to write home about. today we are looking at highs of nine—11. on wednesday it will be widely 4—5. we'll get the first glimpse of how some aspects of life might look if we leave the eu without a deal later this morning, when 150 lorries take part in a no—deal brexit rehearsal. the hgvs will assemble at a disused airfield in kent, as part of plans to tackle possible congestion on routes to dover. our reporter simonjones is there for us — simon, what exactly is happening there today? this is a significant operation? absolutely, the plan is to see how
8:21 am
the road network might cope in the event of a no deal brexit. we've just had the first 25 lorries leave. if you look down there at the former airport site, you can see other lorries queueing to take part in this trial. the scenario is that these lorries are being put out onto these lorries are being put out onto the roads at rush—hour to see how the roads at rush—hour to see how the traffic in the area copes. we've got people on the school run, you've got people on the school run, you've got people on the school run, you've got people heading to work, and at the same time, all these lorries in the same time, all these lorries in the equation. why is this considered to be necessary? well, the idea is that if there is a no deal brexit, some experts are saying that there could be tailbacks stretching for 30 miles if traffic is unable to get into the port of dover because of increased lorry checks. so the government is looking at ways of taking the lorries off the road, that's why this site is potentially going to be used as a giant lorry park after brexit. how is it all going to work today? well, the

lorries are setting off from here at manston airport heading down towards the port of dover. it is not a non—stop journey, there will be a holding area about halfway along the route. lorries will then be released depending on the traffic to get to the port of dover. today they will not actually go into the port, they will be heading straight back down here, because there's going to be a second trial run at about 11 o'clock. so, the first one is under way and no doubt numbercrunching will be taking place between the trials to see exactly how it works and how local traffic is affected. thank you. i never knew that watching lorries could be so mesmerising! but i was both that is pa rt mesmerising! but i was both that is part of the planning! and we will be talking about that further. staying with the transport industry... car sales are not looking good...? that's right.

more bad news for the uk car industry today. sales of new vehicles fell by 7% last year, that's the second consecutive year of declines and the biggest fall since the financial crisis. lack of confidence around brexit, increasing environmental awareness and new regulations all being blamed. manufacturers also mentioning the b—word today. a survey of the members of industry trade body the eef has showed more than three—quarters of british manufacturers think any delays at the border would be a risk for their business. quite a few manufacturers also planning to stockpile goods before we leave the eu. it's a big week for retailers, with m&s, debenhams and tesco all reporting christmas trading figures. department store selfridges says it had a great festive period, with sales 8% higher than last year. that includes in store and online. and finally, it has had a practically perfect box office opening, but now it's been revealed how much disney spent making mary poppins returns here in the uk. production cost £98 million, with scenes filmed at shepperton studios in surrey and on location in london, too.

i haven't seen it yet but i'm not sure how you improve on perfection, which in my view is what the first mary poppins film was. the second one is all right, it doffs its cap several times to the ritual as well. all the songs are different but there is a dreamy sequence and the bank is in there. cartoon penguins? not quite... well, sort of, yes. dick van dyke makes an appearance, what more do you agree want?! you don't even need to see it now! although of course the bar is very high from the first one! something else to update you on from over the weekend, so many people asking about someone we showed you last week, an 82—year—old man who lives in sheffield who was an eight—year—old playing in the park in the middle of sheffield back on the 22nd of february on dog a us bomber came and

crashed in that park, avoided attorney and a number of other children who were playing in the park and the pilot and nine others on board all died but they managed to minimise the loss of life, managing to save the life of tony and many others. and tony ever since has looked after this memorial in the park. since 1969, when the stones were laid there, he has been three times a week every single week in the rain and snow and it has been a silent service over the years because he feels an element of guilt about what happened. and you met him because you walked past him a few times with your dog and you wanted to have a chat? i was in a rush last wednesday but then i saw this old man, he has got essential tram so his hands are shaking all the time, he still does all this work, i saw this old fella picking up leaves and i decided to have a chat with him and he told me this incredible story, we put him on the programme

and it has now been around the world. and ideally he would like a fly past and i feel that you're inching close to getting a fly past coverage we are inching close, i keep getting asked all the time where we are up to with this... where are we?! there will be an anniversary service taking place on the 22nd of february. i know many people are interested in it, i have spoken to the us air force, to somebody very high in the raf as well, two mps and various councillors in sheffield, we're going to short the steps out and try and get tony a flagpole but on the fly past, can't confirm anything yet but as i told tony on saturday night, we are in a fingers crossed formation at the moment that it will happen. i can't believe last week, the idea of organising a fly past probably didn't fly past your brain but here we are! fingers crossed it can happen. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. sting good morning. we have rain in the
