if‘ai‘it that of if‘ai‘ii sn’f pflf‘i if‘ai‘ii sn’f pm? \——u fortune twice that of philip green. this is the owner of amazon. talk us through this. this is a tough line, and it is because which one do you dislike most? that has a lot of inquiry about him about allegations that he backed by the mob, the extramarital affairs, and yet the wild's most richest man, powerful man that has tax evasion, and it is the middle of the divorce cases, do not ask me to choose sides, but in times of story, while it is good. not ask me to choose sides, but in times of story, while it is goodm has blackmailed, it has got it all. rolled back at that because the

national enquirer is very close to donald trump, and one of the things that came out from the testimony of former lawyer michael: is that the national enquirer did catch and kill, so it brought up people who by the elected allegations on him and brought it up to silence him from becoming published. we already knew about this really interesting relationship between the inquirer in a trap. now it is being alleged by the amazon found that that they were possibly going after him on the obstruction of trout. and donald trump hates the washington post because it is supposedly fake news, so because it is supposedly fake news, so that is where it gets very blurry. i let you describe all the

boring details. we are talking about donald trump, but donald trump has been silent about this. i think he has not been to think as far as we know. —— tweeting. we have some questions i have, like but this he no? it is more intriguing because when did they get this dirt on him before. that is possible allegations of collusion with the government unproven, but that is a possibility. the police are investigating. and the federal government is investigating as well. let's go the next story... a brexit story, brexit

alert as traced on. they are systolic, they do not want —— they are systolic, they do not want —— they a re stolle, systolic, they do not want —— they are stolle, they do not want a cut and paste of the treaty. this is just a taste of thanks to, really. the over thought that we can do this cut and paste rolled over agreement, we did not even know the nature of the eu deal so how can we try to do that. this was entirely inevitable. you have much of my client and a memberof the club you have much of my client and a member of the club and 28 and you do asa member of the club and 28 and you do as a small nation. of course, it is not that that it is a possibility here, south korea is doing the same. ona big here, south korea is doing the same. on a big level. this looks embarrassing. ona on a big level. this looks embarrassing. on a small level, this is much more about small business than you realise. if you do not roll

over, you are not sure if you can send the cheese. all of this comes two the micro detail of trade deals is crucial and it is the more complicated stuff that nobody in the referenda wants to talk about. it has come to bite us. he has been one of the only vocal supporters of theresa may. it is bad news, given that japan was one of the countries that japan was one of the countries that theresa may had on her side. that japan was one of the countries that theresa may had on her sidem is not that good for liam fox but he does not show any shame so that is fine. i would think that he would agree with you. the fact that obviously they had been negotiating

for 18 months... tokyo has made it clear that it is just not willing to duplicate that science of its recent treaty with the eu and a bilateral deal. which will not be ratified by march. let's go to the front page of the independent. it has a related story. they are struggling to get trade deals but japan and south korea, these are big trading partners outside of the eu, we are now putting the heavies on the smaller countries to get them to sign up saying that if you do not do this, then you will miss out. i am wondering how much of a place of the smaller countries that are looking at this and going that we have more

leverage them we realise? this is an interesting take. the three of the 40 uk interesting take. the three of the a0 uk memberships have been rolled over. which makes you realise that it might be that to do a cut—and—paste of previous treaties. we have so few rolling over. i do not know how much is in the story. it speaks of bullying behaviour if it is true. i do not know what is behind at bear lake. the paper goes on to say that the department for international trade does not sell about the risk of trade if it does not sign up. let's move onto the daily paragraph. —— the daily telegraph. i was going to say that

matt is very crucial that people who have to live in london do that trade. buses are run by equal value and very efficient. as soon as you gas out of london, you are primarily relying on buses via form of transport. at they are the biggest public transport and britain. it has been cut by 28% low. buses are not the most glamourous form of transport, but if you are living in a small town, and you are young, it is your main way of getting to like. if you are an elderly person, and it is your main way of getting to the shops, they are absolutely crucial. they just shops, they are absolutely crucial. theyjust do not get the love and

attention that they deserve because they are such a crucial part of how this country operates. this is quite important, and what we have now is that the local government association, the umbrella party, the subsidy for free fairs they are saying, the government is not giving them enough money to pay for this as we all know that the liberal council is an extraordinary stretch anyway. they are saying that if we do not have enough money, we need to cut some roots. they say at to have to go, we are talking about 13,000 routes. this is a voice case scenario, but they are generally concerned. the social problem that can happen should be of concern. that people who say that might be already in a situation where a survey in november said that a third

of britain said that they felt lonely. we have a huge taking fremont and human isolation that is coming. my mum lives is at a small little village, there is a bus to the nearest town, but there is not one back. so... it is a one way bus service. that is a growing problem, but this is an issue in major cities as well. it is quite interesting to go outside of london and realise how expensive bus service is. it is £3 60, which is much cheaper fight shorted journeys. but people who need take gets a break, that is a lot of money. getting the doctors appointment for the elderly, that is appointment for the elderly, that is a huge neglect tonight transport service. thank you so much very

much. we will do this again at half past 11. that is that by the paper at this hour. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers — and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, jason beattie and claire cohen. goodbye. good evening. this working week to get what a storm. storm eric, it has brought disruptive winds, went strong enough to blow down trees. it has remaining really shower me for many of us. north and wednesday. those winds will continue to blow a severe gale force and cause
