you're watching beyond 100 days. we've got used to turmoil in the conservative party recently, but now it's the british opposition facing upheaval. after seven labour mps quit the party the deputy leader says labour must change or more will resign. these seven mps left over brexit, anti—semitism and above all, the party's leadership. we invite you, the british people to join us in this endeavour. if you want an alternative please help us build it. donald trump trusts vladimir putin over us intelligence agencies — that's the incendiary claim of the former number at the fbi. also on the programme: us aid arrives on venezuela's border but is denied entry despite desperate shortages of food and medicines — president trump will address the crisis there shortly. and at a security conference in germany this weekend the widening rift between the usa and europe was laid bare — we'll discuss what's the future for these once close allies.

hello and welcome — i'm katty kay in washington and matthew price is in london. a british government led by labour sjeremy corbyn would "threaten our national security". the opposition labour party is "unfit for government". words british conservatives agree with — you d expect to hear the prime minister herself say them. but they came from elected members of parliament who today broke away from the labour party. seven mps said they were leaving in protest at their leader's approach to brexit and anti—semitism. there's a sense of the political start—up about it — they're looking for other politicians to join but they say they aren't creating a new political party. you might come from a labour background, but you might come from other political traditions. and yes, it's a difficult decision, make no mistake about that. but think about it, you don'tjoin a political party to spend

years and years fighting the people within it. you get involved in politics, you join a party to change the world. so we invite you to leave your parties and help us forge a new consensus on a way forward for britain. chuka umman there, he's one of the seven who are now independent mps. ann coffey has also made that move and joins us now. good evening. good evening. you have been a labour party mp for more than a quarter of a century, so i am wondering why you have decided to go like this? there have been a number of issues over a period of time, it wasn't something that was very sudden. i haven't been very happy with the direction of the leadership are not happy with some of the policies, not happy with the culture

of the party, not a very happy with the leadership‘s approach to brexit. but gradually, you think, can i change this? then you think, actually that party is not my party any more. i don't share the same values as that party. i think you have a choice, you either stay and believe you can fight and that is a perfectly legitimate position to have. or you say no, i don't think that's the right thing for me to do, i think it is better that i leave. let me read the tweet from the labourmp let me read the tweet from the labour mp richard berghan, who said the independent group isn'tjust an attack on jeremy's the independent group isn'tjust an attack onjeremy‘s policies... why do you not believe labour is the

a nswer to why do you not believe labour is the answer to many of britain's problems? i don't think it is right the people of this country should only be offered a choice between an extreme right—wing tory party and the hard left labour party. i don't think either of them reflect the views of the vast majority of the british public. i think if people are only offered the choice, then the whole notion of representative democracy is breaking down. in fact, i think it is interesting over the brexit debate, there has been a lot of cross—party working between different members of different parties, when they have found shared values that are perhaps not shared in the parties they are members of. i think, what is happening and what we are doing, is the beginning, i think is the fragmentation of politics and the breaking down of the traditional offer of either

party or a party. ann coffey, you we re party or a party. ann coffey, you were critical of the wayjeremy corbyn handled the brexit referendum, but it seems to me looking at your comments now, you are as critical of his style of leadership, the way the leadership responded to the issue of abuse. is it that bad in the party? if you look at the response over months of any criticism of jeremy look at the response over months of any criticism ofjeremy by other members of parliament, you will see the immediate response is to bully people, is to slap them down without addressing the issues that they've actually raised. and yes, the culture of the labour party has become a very bullying culture. if you criticise, you are told you are betraying the party, you are letting the tories in. nothing is ever

discussed, it is simply, it is simply... you are simply bullied away. people then feel the best course of action is silence. if you are silent, you don't get the bullying. but that is a terrible place for a party to end up. parties cannot survive unless they are able to have proper debate within the party themselves. silence or leaving, as you havejust party themselves. silence or leaving, as you have just done, party themselves. silence or leaving, as you havejust done, ann coffey, thank you forjoining us. now we've got our uk poltical correspondent, rob watson, in london. what happens to this independent group of mps, the history of independent groups is not necessary successful in uk politics?” independent groups is not necessary successful in uk politics? i will come to that in a second, but this is potentially a big moment. how big, depends on what next. we are not clear if this is the tip of the iceberg that will somehow be the

whole titanic are british, fractured politics at the moment whether it is seven very angry, upset mps. i guess what we will see in the next couple of days, the mps, the seven having to resist efforts by some in the labour party to force them to stand again and they will also be reaching out to some behind the conservative party saying look, we havejumps, come and join us. the british political system, the way we elect people doesn't lend itself to a new political party, does it? it doesn't and what is both striking here and the united states, over the last 100 yea rs, the united states, over the last 100 years, whether it is in the us with the democrats and the republicans

and he with labour and the conservatives. if you think about the astonishing changes, in the us, the astonishing changes, in the us, the vietnam war, changes in economy, the vietnam war, changes in economy, the baby boom here, the second world war, greater work by the states, decolonisation, you name it. somehow, the two parties on both sides of the atlantic have been broad enough churches to survive and cope with the people. but is brexit different, having jeremy corbyn, generally a left—wing leader. to be very cautious, these parties have survived a long time and party loyalty is very deep in this country. thank you very much indeed. i want to show you something nigel farage, who founded the ukip party tweeted today. he says... as rob has just

as rob hasjust outlined, it is hard to see how the electoral system we have here can make realignment happen, it is not as easy setting up a new party in many european continental countries but you talk to people here, anecdotally, a lot of people support the idea that fundamentally, british politics is broken and needs a new reset button? yes, and as rob saying, this big shift is happening. donald trump is hitting back at claims that some of his top government officials once discussed whether he was fit to be president. the claims were made by andrew mccabe, the former deputy head of the fbi in a tv interview last night. particularly stunning, mr mccabe, who was himself fired from the fbi, last year also says mr trump told him that on the issue of north korea, he trusted vladimir putin over us intelligence services. essentially, the president said he did not believe the north koreans had the capability to hit us here with ballistic missiles in the united states. and he did not believe that because president putin had told him they did not. intelligence officials in the briefing responded that that was not consistent with any

of the intelligence of our government possesses. to which the president replied, "i don't care, i believe putin". this morning mr trump took to twitter to counter those reports. wow, so many lies by now disgraced acting fbi director andrew mccabe. he was fired for lying, and now his story gets even more deranged. when mrtrump when mr trump holds you another beauty, it is not the biggest compliment from the president. let's get reaction from our political analyst and former advisor to president george w bush, ron christie, whojoins me now in the studio. this claim from andrew mccabe at donald trump on the issue of north korea says he believes vladimir

putin over us intelligence agencies, this is not good for the country is it not good for the intelligence agencies? i am a bit more sceptical. mr mccabe was fired from his job for making false statements under oath. if you are talking about someone making a statement and claims the president believes vladimir putin over intelligence agencies, i don't necessarily believe him. we don't have directory. i want other people who were in the room who might have had the president say that. so the notion that andrew mccabe is out to save his reputation but keep himself potentially out of jail, save his reputation but keep himself potentially out ofjail, seems a little too self—serving to me. potentially out ofjail, seems a little too self-serving to me. may be your reason for thinking that, may be the white house, the fbi, the cia and the nsa, they are at war, are they? yes they are. there is no love lost between the intelligence

agencies in the united states. they wa nt agencies in the united states. they want to be the top dog and be perceived as having the best resources and the best analysis. but the notion the intelligence community would be fighting with the president of the united states, i think it's a fundamental problem. they report to the commander—in—chief, not the other way around and that is why the notion of andrew mckay's book has me troubled on so many different levels. there is too much infighting and even if a bit of what he is saying is true, there is a problem. thank you, stay with us. on friday mr trump declared a national emergency to secure funding for a border wall — today the first law suits were filed against him. the attorney general of california is the first to announce he is suing the president on the grounds that there is no real emergency on america's southern border. four other states have joined xavier becerra's suit. ron christie is still with us. how is this going to work, suing the president? there are a couple of things to keep in mind. either congress can have a resolution to

disprove this emergency, which thus far we haven't seen. or a private citizen can sue the present‘s emergency declaration, which we have seen. emergency declaration, which we have seen. the notion will be, or the courts to adjudicate this and say, even though the president has said there is an emergency, we have not found this meets the criteria from this national emergency statute that was passed in the 70s. this will wind its way through california, it will go through the circuit and court of appeals and ultimately the supreme court so i don't expect to see action on this for the next several months. donald trump said that on friday and that on saturday night live, alec baldwin kind said the same thing. we will have a national emergency and then we will be sued and abel's suit was in the ninth circuit and then there were suitors in the supreme court... then they will have

my buddy cavanagh, house of thugs, i can plead insanity and do a few months in the puzzle factory and my personal hell playing president will finally be over. the writers and have them do it for us. how do i top that. my interpretation, i had to go to law school and find some way to justify having to pay those bills. but alec baldwin says this right. we are going to find a way to the courts, we will see more tweeting and more agitation from the president but ultimately this will bea president but ultimately this will be a judicial rather than executive decision. ron christie, thank you very much. the democrats are saying, if the

president declares a national emergency over immigration and the wall, we can do it on gun control, climate change and the republicans are aware it could set a dangerous precedent, which is why you'll see these lawsuits and what you have a lot of republican saying, we don't like this at the moment, including mcconnell, head of the senate, who doesn't think it is a good idea. let's get venezuelan and the latest on that now. the president is set to leave his mar—a—lago resort shortly and head down the coast to miami. he'll make an address at florida international university where 50% of the student body are latino. and his message — that the venezuelan leader must step down will be aimed at two audiences — one in caracas, the other in the key electoral battle ground florida where thousands of expat venezuelans live and vote and could help trump retain the white house in 2020. the bbc‘s barbara plett usher is in miamifor us. good evening, barbara. what are we

expecting from president trump? matthew, we expect, according to notes from the white house, we expect he will repeat his strong support forjuan guaido as a legitimate president of venezuela. he will make a pitch to the military to switch sides and support mr guaido,, which it hasn't done. with a bit of threat, he will say we know where you have hidden your money around the world, implying there will be a price to pay. he will urge the military to allow the humanitarian convoy on the border of colombia, to get through the blockade mr maduro has set up. we are expecting him to take another swipe at cuba. he will say the transition to democracy in venezuela would help to promote democracy in cuba, by which he means it would help to weaken the cuban regime. because it is so closely allied to venezuela. that will go over well here because you have venezuelan

americans and cuban—americans who are very americans and cuban—americans who are very hard line on that i would like to hear are very hard line on that i would like to heaertrump are very hard line on that i would like to hear mr trump with that policy. when he was here a year and a half ago rowing back on president obama's fresh alliance with cuba, he got a standing ovation. do you expect the president to talk about express military action if the maduro government doesn't allow this aid into the country at the end of this week? katty, he may. he has in the past hinted at military action by saying, all options are on the table, but he hasn't gone further than that. his national security adviserjohn bolton has hinted by carrying the notepad, which had scribbled on it, 5000 troops to colombia. he was asked last week how we should read that? he said the speculation is good, keep speculating. at the very least, he and mrtrump want speculating. at the very least, he and mr trump want to keep the maduro

regime rattled. but if you speak to diplomats, especially the us envoy for venezuela, he will say we don't expect a military involvement and our plan is diplomatic and economic. having said that, if the stand—off continues, the possibility for violence gets greater. so we certainly cannot rule it out. 0k, barbara, we will leave it there. it's now been over a decade since the us has had a president

who made protecting us—european relations a top foreign policy aims. barack obama was not a transatlantic president, he launched the so—called pivot to asia, making it clear he felt us global interests lay more in asia than in europe. donald trump has alienated european leaders even further with his criticism of both the eu and nato, to the point that some fear he'll even pull out of the security pact. this weekend, at a global security conference in munich, german chancellor angela merkel was particularly critical of mr trump, responding harshly to american accusations that the german car industry is a threat to us national security. take a listen. translation: we're proud of our automotive industry and i think we can be. we're proud of our cars, they are built in the united states of america. south carolina is one of — it's actually the largest bmw plant not in bavaria. south carolina is supplying china, so when these cars, that because they're built in south carolina, are not becoming less threatening, rather than the ones that are built in bavaria, are supposed to be a threat to the national security of america, it's a bit of a shock to us.

we spoke earlier to bundestag member norbert roettgen, who is a member of merkel‘s cdu party and chairs the german parliament's foreign affairs committee. we have known for two years that relations between europe and america are not good under the trump administration, just how bad was it at the munich security conference? you were there. unfortunately i have to say the munich security conference and particularly the speech vice president p delivered have contributed to a worsening of the atmosphere because we could not see, we wish to see but we could not see, we wish to see but we could not see and hear any kind of offer of dialogue or consultation that we wa nt to dialogue or consultation that we want to have a partnership, which is

built on mutual trust and dialogue and the desire and determination to do things together. it seemed more to be more of a command output than a dialogue. is there a risk that after the trump administration might feel it was criticised, rebuffed at the security conference, that there could be a backlash? you had the vice president, mike pence, not getting applause when he talked about president trump. you had pictures of ivanka trump not looking very happy at angela merkel‘s speech. are you worried the trump administration might get more irritated with its european allies? ido irritated with its european allies? i do not think this could be a consequence of this conference. however, i have to say personally, and we in general, are expecting that things are getting even worse.

we see that the president comes under more pressure domestically and there is an expectation he will compensate in the field of foreign policy, particularly regarding the relationship to their allies and particularly to germany. it is matthew price in london, just picking up on that, yes mr trump has a particular style of leadership and this isn't something that has come out of the blue. under president obama, the united states was pivoting to asia. it was removing itself from the european access. president obama was pushing for more european spending on the military. as europe not been caught a little bit asleep on this one?” as europe not been caught a little bit asleep on this one? i do not really agree. first of all, i am a german politician, but my position is not that there is nothing for the europeans and the germans to blame,

to criticise for. i am criticising also some of our political decisions. so it is not the case i am making that we are doing all the right things and the americans, the wrong thing. we have seen the united states as the beacon and torchbearer and leader of order and shaping international order. what we see now is not any interest in shaping order, but unilateral action. thank you forjoining us from berlin. thank you. it was interesting to watch that munich security conference because people on this site are worried about that transatlantic relationship. the president has said his administration has managed to restore america's standing in the world, people respect america more than they used to. at the numbers don't bear that out. there is a regular global poll so let's have a

look at how people view america right now. it is stunning, the number of people in germany and france who now think the united states is a major threat to those countries has more than doubled. it just doesn't add up with what mr trump has said about the fact that the way he is handling foreign policy is restoring america's reputation around the world. you wonder if it is feeding into some of the thought and thinking coming out of munich were several europeans we re of munich were several europeans were saying europe will get more strategic about it thinking and realise the world has changed. and probably isn't going to change very much back again anytime soon. we have to show this because... ourfriends in canada have had theirfair share of snow in recent days. but even with temperatures falling into double digit minus figures, one man braved the elements for an artistic endeavour. yes, robert greenfield from toronto recorded himself clearing the snow from his backyard with a shovel, using the opportunity to recreate one of the world's most famous paintings. as you can see, it is starting

to take shape, it is of course a version of leonardo da vinci's mona lisa, or rather, ‘snowna lisa.‘ look at that! when i have snow, i built a rather useless snowman in my backyard. this is setting a higher barrier. i love that. this is beyond 100 days from the bbc. coming up for viewers on the bbc news channel and bbc world news — an inspiring story of survival. 12 years after greensboro was destroyed by a tornado, we'll explain how this kansas town has revived its fortunes with renewable energy. and the british schoolgirl who joined the islamic state group in syria tells the bbc she wants the uk's forgiveness and claims she never wanted to be a poster girl for is. that's still to come. it is set to get warmer again this

week but we have seen cool air coming in across the uk. together with a lot of shower clouds across towards the north—west. this area comes a long way south and its stock across southern and eastern parts of england, producing rain later on in the afternoon and evening. lots of showers with gusty winds in the north—west of the uk. those showers become fewer overnight. the winds will ease a bit as well and the rain from the south—east is long gone. skies will clear and with lighter winds across most southern part of the uk, it will turn a chilly. temperatures could be close to freezing on one or two spots. one or two showers to start the day, many places dry with sunshine in the east. already clouding over in

northern ireland. here we will get rain and cloud will spill in across all areas and rain and cloud will spill in across allareas and rain rain and cloud will spill in across all areas and rain arriving over the arrow c into western scotland later on in the day. blustery winds again, south—westerly winds and temperatures will be similar to what we have had today. still mild for the time of year, not warm as it has been. these weather fronts look like they will drive more across the northern half of the uk and the rate could be steady and heavy over the hills of western scotland, into the north west of england over the high ground as well. a wet start here on wednesday. the wettest of the weather moves into the north sea over toward drier and brighter across a good part of scotland. patchy rain across northern england and returning into northern ireland. still dry, southern england, south wales and temperatures back to 13 degrees. some rain this week and it will be across the northern half of the uk and after that there is temperatures will rise significantly once again. the next weather system will be kept out into the atlantic. this is the dominant feature. covering much of europe and keeping

it mild and dry in many parts of europe. with high pressure still in the same place, we are back to the situation we were last week with the wind is coming all the way from the canaries, pushing the mild air across our shores. breaking the cloud up as well, but still some cloud up as well, but still some cloud around on thursday and friday. spells of sunshine around. early morning mist and fog but temperatures rising everywhere, perhaps as high as 16 or 17. this is beyond 100 days with me, katty kay in washington, matthew price is in london. our top stories: seven mps quit the uk labour party to form an independent group, in protest atjeremy corbyn's leadership. the car—maker honda is to shut its factory in south west england. thousands ofjobs will be lost, as production moves back to japan. coming up in the next half hour across the country, democrats continue push for new ways to combat climate change, but can republicans get on board? they are in some small towns in the mid west. and vets at london zoo release

a series of x—rays from the health checks of its animals — my guesswork will be put to the test! there is little chance that the world will meet the paris agreement targets on climate change — and in some cases the situation has got worse not better. the new research from the university of edinburgh helps explain why democrats launched here in the us launched their ambitious green new deal to fight global warming. there is little chance that the world will meet the blueprint has been very divisive — it's either a much needed call to arms or a step towards dangerous socialism , depending on where you stand. climate change here has fallen victim to political paralysis — but that hasn't stopped communities around the us from finding solutions. that's the case in greensburg, kansas. destroyed by a tornado — it's now looking to wind power to fuel the future as rajini vaidynathan found out. in a corner of america's midwest, a small town is leading the way when it comes to green energy.

there's been global interest in this wind turbine project with officials from as far afield as germany, russia, and china coming here to take a look. but even though greensburg's being held up as an example to others, it's still one of only a handful of towns in america which relies exclusively on renewable energy. this is our new school, but you'll notice it's got a lot of natural daylighting, it's got solar on the roof,... bob dickson parts make the town's former mayor have helped greensburg go green as he drove me around, he explained why. this is where the tornado entered town from the south. in may 2007, if there is tornado ripped through the town leaving 11 people dead. virtually every building was flattened. it was during the rebuilding process that greensburg decided to adopt an environmentally friendly way of life. bob dickson said it made

sense in this pioneering part of america. we were raised on conservation values. if you take care of the land, it will take care of you. that's the way we were raised out here on the high plains. and so, those conservation values told us, leave it better than we found it to. take care of what you've got and live within your means and the resources you have available and that green. our business, the antique business is one of the, probably one of the first green sustainable businesses that ever existed. this building which houses erica goodman's antique store was one of the few left standing after the tornado. erica says going green has saved her a third on her bills and it was economics which persuaded others this staunchly republican area to get on board. i think most people realised it's not a big hippy liberal thing, there is little things we can do that make our lives better, that pit an ease

on your pocketbook. there are many reasons why this town of fewer than a thousand residents is leading the way in green power. whence might have destroyed greensburg once, but now it's become its saviour. for more on the political fight over climate change policies we can cross now to christine todd whitman, who served as head of the environmental protection agency under president george w bush. thank you forjoining us. of all of theissues thank you forjoining us. of all of the issues that have become subject to political paralysis or partisanship here in the united states, climate change perhaps is the most depressing one. is it possible to take part in partisan politics out of american politics cosmic not entirely. it's been too much of an issue for both sides,

it's too easy to demonise but there isa it's too easy to demonise but there is a growing group in the centre and both sides of the aisle are saying this is a relationship, we got to do with it now, we've got the american people finally saying we know something is going on. every poll says 60—70% of the american people says 60—70% of the american people say it's happening, people have a role to play here and we need to get on with it. that's why you see towns coming together, city coming together, states coming together saying it irrespective of what this administration says and is doing, we are going to start doing our own thing because we got too harden ourselves against what is inevitable, because of this, we are not going to roll back. entirely ever but we need to slow it down, we need to figure out how we're going to live and deal with it. is there a chance that the scepticism about climate change that we heard from trump in the white house is going to galvanise people want to do more, to ta ke galvanise people want to do more, to take on more of the button because its not having to limit happening at

the federal level. people are tired of ignoring it and they are seeing it. they are seeing these increased droughts, storms, more rain, more droughts, storms, more rain, more drought and the extremes are coming at us one minute after the next. people are seeing that and living it. they say, if we can design to slow it down or make it better, we ought to do it, and we are seeing with things like what you showed in cancers in the town, that this is economically viable, we've always known that but unfortunately, it is easier to, either have a sewing cavity or clean green environment thatis cavity or clean green environment that is not, those are not the two choices, you can and must have both actually. we have done that before and people are beginning to recognise, yes we can do this again. there is a whole new world of invention out there for us. investment and research and development. finding these new ways of dealing with the issues as they

come at us. making wind and solar more efficient, being able to store it better, making it more available and more affordable to people, providing incentives, now the the united states more and more are providing incentives for people to go more green. you don't get off the grid entirely because they want to give utilities going because right now, the green power is only 18% of our overall power, it were not going to get to 50 or hundred percent and another ten years. hello, i wonder whether an economic incentive develops globally. we see the chinese really beginning to invest in new ways of generating energy. would there be some point where us businesses decide, we cannot get left behind here, we've got to move into this new economy? they are already doing that. yes. a lot of

businesses have adopted new profiles that are saying we are going to reduce our carbon emissions, we are going to reduce our water usage, it saves them money, makes them more competitive, gives them an advantage over other businesses and the industry, that are not doing those things that you see more and more starting to move in that direction. so, especially if they are international companies, they have got to compete around the world in other parts of the world have stronger standards. they've got to live up to them, they would like to be able to do that in the united states, because it's easier for them when they have certainly and it is these aims of the standards anywhere that they have to develop and so, there's going to be a lot of pressure. when this administrative for instance, was rolling back the tailpipe emissions, these standards as we call them, it was manufacturers of some of the biggest automobile companies that stood up and said, don't do this. we are on our way to developing more efficient cars. let us keep doing this and make it positive for us to do it. so, it interesting that a lot of them are going to go ahead because they are competing globally. thank

you forjoining us. things are actually getting done. look at the mayors of towns. they are not republican potholes and there are not democratic streetlights, there are just streetlig hts streetlights, there are just streetlights and potholes and we have to fix things and it is the same issues. they are the ones who have seen the problems on the other was coming up with solutions to get things done. yes, i remember a trip by major northern texas, they had terrible flooding, they also expose to watch out and that was the incentive for them to do something about it as a community. things are changing. let's hope it is a bit faster. the british schoolgirl who joined the islamic state group in syria but now wants to come home — has told the bbc that she doesn't agree with everything the terror group did, and now says she supports some british values. shamima begum, who gave birth to a baby boy over the weekend, is now the focus of an intense debate over whether she should be allowed to come back to the uk. she's been speaking to the bbc‘s quentin sommerville.

underneath her black dress, she cradles her two—day—old son. only four years have passed since she left britain, but that is a lifetime in the islamic state group. she stuck with the extremist until the very last moment. but now she wants forgiveness. i will admit, i was very last moment. but now she wants forgiveness. iwill admit, iwas the one that made the choice, even though i was only 15 years old, i do have, i could make my own decision. ido have, i could make my own decision. i do have the mentality to make my own decisions and i did leave on my own. knowing that it was a risk, but i will admit it is my fault right now. i just want forgiveness, really. everything i've been through, i didn't expect i would go through, i didn't expect i would go through that. losing my children,

the way i lost them. i don't want to lose this baby is one this is really not a place to children. this camp, may be temporarily, but not permanently. if the islamic state hasn't fallen or been defeated, which have stayed? no, probably would have left. way she was brought to this camp in northern syria after she and her husband surrendered to curtis forces, she no longer supports it but she... here is your chance to apologise for the murders. some of the british man, some of the women, some of the kids that were killed in the manchester arena, you must‘ve had about that attack. what did think about that?|j must‘ve had about that attack. what did think about that? i was shocked, but... i couldn't. .. did think about that? i was shocked, but... icouldn't... i did think about that? i was shocked, but... i couldn't... i do feel it is

wrong that innocent people did get killed, it wanting to kill a soldier thatis killed, it wanting to kill a soldier that is waiting you. it self defence, but to kill people like women and children, just like people and children here being killed right now and justly with in the bombings. it's a two—way thing, really. women and children are being killed back and children are being killed back an islamic state right now. it's kind of retaliation. their justification was that it was retaliation, so i thought, ok. it is afair retaliation, so i thought, ok. it is a fairjustification. the home secretary says anyone returning from the islamic state group will be investigated and may be prosecuted. mr speaker, the house will have also seen the comments of shamima begum and that she is made in the media and that she is made in the media and it will have to draw it and conclusions, quite simply if you back terror, there must be consequences. she is unwanted here

in syria and unwanted at home. as the islamic state plasma caliphate colla pses, the islamic state plasma caliphate collapses, it leaves more than just rubble in its wake. 12 more british women arrived at this camp in the last week alone. thousands of families here in the uk — in the english town of swindon — are having a pretty difficult evening. they were told today of reports that the japanese car—maker honda — which employs more than 3000 workers in the town — is going to close its manufacturing plant by 2022. the decision was confirmed by the local member of parliament who said the move was not a result of brexit, but was based on global trends. earlier i spoke to the bbc‘s jon kay about the news. honda has been making cars in swindon for about 30 years, when you're talking to people that amount, what they think the impact of the decision is going to be on them cosmic during those 30 years, they've had highs and lows any car industry and rumours in the past

that things might close or change, but they have come through that. they were never is this year, and i was about brexit, nervous about the global car market but i think don't think anyone was expecting the kind of announcements which they are now fearing this entire plant could close. three and a half thousand people like you but thousands more in the supply chain as well and is just a in the supply chain as well and is justa grim in the supply chain as well and is just a grim faces as they drive out tonight, as they finish their ships, disbelief, shock and anger as well that this leaked out to journalists and on social media during the afternoon rather than being announced to workers today. obviously, the plan has changed as the news has leaked but some people here are cross that they've had it on their phones and from one another word of mouth rather than from the bosses on the shop floor. and of course, given the political environment, the question is bound to be asked whether this is brexit related, but the local mp from there in swindon saying, it is not. yes, honda had announced they were going

to close the plant for six days in april, to deal with any post brexit confusion, and delay it. so, brexit was already very much in the minds of people in this town, and in the minds of the staff here. i think, people here will consist you might assume it's a factor, are significant though it's going to be for the politicians and for the economist to debate. there was talk about whether it is more significant about whether it is more significant about the wider global car market and what's been going on with car sales more generally, what's been happening specifically with hyundai sales in some quarters. and also, there are questions with treaties and trade deals that have been done already between the eu and japan and whether that will have any knock—on impact. so, ithink whether that will have any knock—on impact. so, i think workers here wa nt to impact. so, i think workers here want to know why this is happening, but really, to make the most important thing for them is what is happening. is this site going to close in its entirety and what next for theirjobs? and all those knock—on jobs as you pointed out, thank you very much. everyone

thinking about their jobs thank you very much. everyone thinking about theirjobs as well. the question will be asked why did this happen and has to be asked because we want to know what the future of the carmaking industry is in the uk. do you have a sense of what's behind this? it's hard to overstate how important carmaking has been in parts of the uk over the last few decades. it was a massive industry in the country for many many years, it's brought life and manufacturing jobs back to a lot of areas. but there are big changes that are going on in carmaking. not least, you had the boss of bmw recently saying, he is not a car company, he has run a car company he ru ns company, he has run a car company he runs a tech company, they are looking for different sorts of employees now. so, the manufacturing jobs are beginning to go from car manufacturing, that presumably has an impact. there is also, the eurosceptics especially on the left in this country, blame the eu and trade deals are for doing this.

japan, japanese companies don't need a base in the eu anymore because they are about to sign a trade deal thatjohn was talking about, so they can send their cars over from japan or wherever else they choose to make them. yes. another blow to more people losing theirjobs. as a nose. brazil's mining regulator has banned the construction of all new upstream mining dams, and ordered the decommissioning of existing structures. last month the wall of a dam operated by brazil's largest mining company collapsed, unleasing a wave of mud which killed almost a hundred and 70 people in the town of brumadinho. another 140 people remain unaccounted for. the south african runner, caster semenya, is leading a legal challenge to overturn proposals to force female athletes with genetically high levels of male hormones to take testosterone—reducing medication. the governing body of athletics is arguing in favour of the plans which they say will make the sport fairer. but lawyers for the 800 metre olympic champion say the plans are discriminatory. tyson fury has signed a multi—year, multi—fight agreement

with united states broadcaster espn thought to be worth around £80 million. the new deal will see fury‘s future fights broadcast live on bt sport in the uk and espn in the us. but it casts doubt on an expected rematch with heavyweight champion deontay wilder because the american has been fighting on showtime, which could make a broadcasting agreement more unlikely. this is beyond 100 days. still to come — can you put a skeleton to a face? we'll try to work out which images belong to which species as london zoo releases scans from the health checks of its animals. a small inflatable boat carrying 3a migrants, has been intercepted off the coast of dover. they include a number of women and children, and were brought back to shore by border force officials. our special correspondent, lucy manning, has more from dover.

borderforce border force was patrolling the channel. early morning, and this patrol boat to cutters and lifeboats are called into action after a small inflata ble are called into action after a small inflatable boat crowded with migrants is intercepted off the coast. they were brought into the port at dover covered in blankets to protect them from the cold. 3a migrants were rescued including men, women and children. at the moment, it's not clear what nationality they are. many recently have been iranian. they have been taken to be interviewed by immigration officials. three people were arrested. the lifeboat towed in the rib they'd used, with 3a on board, it would have been overloaded, dangerous but still the crossings continue. it is deeply concerning that we've had another arrival today, underlines the importance of making sure that we have

round—the—clock aerial surveillance, up round—the—clock aerial surveillance, up and down the english channel and on the french coast. it's incredibly important that we take action to stop the traffickers before they set off. last year, 539 people attempted to cross the channel in small boats, with 434 of them making the journey between october and december. the bbc believes that around 90 people this year have arrived here at the same way. however, that number is a small fraction of those who arrived here on the back of lorries into our ports. the national emergency, the home secretary declared saw him redeploy to cutters, one is now patrolling these waters, the other still hasn't arrived and is being repaired. uk mps investigating ‘fake news‘ on social media have warned democracy is at risk from a ‘relentless' spread of disinformation. the commons digital, culture,

media and sport committee is calling for a compulsory code of ethics for major technology companies to try to tackle the problem. the committee singled out facebook, and its founder mark zuckerberg, as ‘digital gangsters' — it accused the firm of ‘knowingly‘ violating data privacy laws. i'm joined now by tech ethicist alice thwaite. thank you very much for coming in. why has the government and this because my i think democracies have a responsibility is what is to remain healthy environments. you have to be able to vote freely, so you need to have information that comes from the top and understand what is going on a government, equally you need to have a venue where you can share your own opinions on what is going on in the democracy. fundamentally, now, technology platforms, technology can munication levels of this but has been single out here, but you've also got google, twitter, gumtree, craigslist, all sorts of platforms, really i now mediate history which we get information and also pass it on. but, i do wonder what the value

is n1 country, tightening up its laws when the internet is obviously, a global thing. the technology is totally international, but mainly comes from... it mainly comes from silicon valley, is a bit comes from west america. one of the only guys that come from europe to specify what you might think of as a communication platform. so, we as a country are really focused on cambridge analytical and political advertising. in india is around is whatsapp and whatsapp information, and brazil. it's important for countries to say this is what is important for our democracy is a culture right now and this is how we wa nt to culture right now and this is how we want to regulated. so, full disclosure, i did not know something existed that is called a tech ethicist which may show how old i am. but i'm not as old as a lot of people who sit in the us senate and we've had this embarrassed dilemma give a rousing performance we had people who are meant to be regulating the tech industry, who honestly didn't really know what

they were talking about because, they were talking about because, they are oxygen aryans would not use much social media themselves. how do we... able to keep ahead of it and keep ahead of the tech and what's happening? this proposal is rather good, because they are proposing to set up an independent regular tory body, so it's not going to be the politicians themselves making suggestions, they are going to be more similar to suggestions, they are going to be more similarto an suggestions, they are going to be more similar to an ofcom. i have people with suitable degrees from various different supplements who have used social media and are aware of the applications they have a society will set as part of this new regulatory body. yes, the politicians are wise to pass it on. we need people your age, not the age of most of the senators. there is that they would like to have regulation, they say they welcome some kind of regulation, are they being disingenuous or do we take that back at his word on that because matt zuckerberg is a busy different and google as a group.

there is a number of people that really do welcome regulation and they welcome the rules so they know they welcome the rules so they know they are not responsible for those decisions on those big democracies and the societies. for example, i know quite a few contact moderators who are currently really doing the jobs of policemen and women. they are certain rooms choosing whether or not something violent or whether it is child pornography, it's wise to pass that on and society. mark zuckerberg himself has different priorities, so it is difficult to say. tech ethicist, thank you. the events at london zoo... chris lives on in me. the images aim to highlight to the public some of the work that goes on behind the scenes at the zoo. but when you just look at the x—rays, it can be pretty

tricky to work out what species the animal are. i thought we could play a fun quiz katty. thanks. great. it looks like a turtle, but why does it have a tail? it isa turtle, but why does it have a tail? it is a title. look at the size of its head. it's a big headed title. next one. they look better in real life. what's that? it's a lizard type thing, maybe it's an iguana. no. tockay gecko what about this one? i don't know what sort of thing that looks a bit like christian,. what's that? large hairy armadillo and finally —

i think we were levered there. well done. that wasn't quite so terrible. i wa nt that wasn't quite so terrible. i want the answers beforehand because i'd like to score a bit better. we will see you back here tomorrow. for now, good night. hello, temperatures on the up again later this week, but to start the week, they have taken a little step backwards and there has been a bit of rain in some spots. north—east england fared well for sunshine with the odd passing shower around. this is the cloud that has bought the parts of east anglia, south—east england, but there is a gap between that and the next weather system coming in late on tuesday into wednesday. that gap, claire spells, overnight and some sunny spells tomorrow. that's the end of the ring into the south—east of the night goes on, at the end, shall instil

into the day. most of us will be dry later in the day and dry anywhere in the south. temperatures going up a couple of degrees. that's a sign of things to come as we get to the end of the week. a big area of high pressure a cross of the week. a big area of high pressure across europe, around that airdrawn upfrom pressure across europe, around that air drawn up from parts of africa, the canary air drawn up from parts of africa, the ca nary islands air drawn up from parts of africa, the canary islands so we will see that drift of war warm air coming back into the looking as if you place as a trigger to the end of the week, 16, 17, 18 degrees and there will be increasing sunshine by the end of the week, going into the weekend as well. clearing away any wet weather from north—western parts of the uk. this is bbc news. the headlines at 8.00: japanese car—maker honda is expected to announce the closure of its plant in swindon — 3,500 jobs could be lost.

i think it isjust i think it is just going to i think it isjust going to be a sad day for swindon and it's notjust the workers here but the whole of swindon and all the companies and everything with it. seven labour mps quit the party, condemning jeremy corbyn's handling of anti—semitism and brexit. the border force intercepts a boat carrying 34 migrants off the coast of dover, with women and children among those rescued. shamima begum asks the uk for forgiveness for joining the islamic state group in syria, but she tells the bbc she still has sympathy for is. # nine to 5 and why it is a way to make a living —
