two prominent cardinals have written an open letter criticising the pope and saying the church has wrongly blamed an abuse of power by the clergy as the main cause of the sexual abuse scandals in the roman catholic church. shamima begum — who ran away in the letter, they instead at the age of fifteen blame "the plague of the homosexual agenda". to join islamic state in syria four years ago — says it's wrong for the uk to strip they say the cases involve her of her citizenship priests who have "gone away without telling her first. from the truth of the gospel". she's been speaking to the bbc‘s their letter comes on the eve quentin sommerville. of a summit of bishops in rome they are making this called by pope francis to deal with the sexual abuse scandals decision based on, like, rocking the roman catholic church. interviews that i made today, survivors of sexual abuse by priests called with journalists myself. on the pope to act. i would like the home secretary to speak to me personally and interview me. we're going to ask him i was hoping that britain what is the hold—up? would understand that i made help us solve this with you. a mistake, a very big mistake, i know, because i was young and naive and i was merely practising, i did not know where is the difficulty? what islam was. why can't you do this? you know? survivors around the world are expecting this. you've promised this for six years. you've promised zero

she also told the bbc she has only tolerance for six years. one nationality — british. the reason that's significant — is because under international law, it's only possible to strip someone now is the time at this moment that of their uk citizenship if they have it elsewhere — you've called everybody together you can't render someone stateless. but yesterday britain and the world to watch revoked her nationality this to do this. and said she was eligible this letter won't help the multiple for citizenship elsewhere. concerns raised about the vatican's the home secretary spoke overall handling of numerous sex abuse allegations, particularly because the allegations are by no in parliament today. means limited to abuse of young boys. the church has also been hit by allegations of sexual depravation is a powerful tool that abuse of nuns in india. can only be used to keep the most and in chile, reports of abuse dangerous individuals out of this of nuns carried out by priests led country and we do not the vatican to launch use it lightly. an investigation last year. but when someone turns their back the women were reportedly on the fundamental values removed from the order and supports terror, after highlighting the abuse. they don't have an automatic right and here's one american to return to the uk. survivor of sexual abuse who was abused by a priest we must put the safety and security when she was just a child. of our country first and i will not she told the bbc what happened. hesitate to act to protect it. i was six when he raped me the first shamima begum's mother time, and the bishop accused me is bangladeshi — but ms begum herself says of being a sexual temptress. she doesn't have a bangladeshi a six—year—old doesn't passport or even been to the country. even know what sex is, in the past couple of hours much less tempting a priest the bangladesh government responded with this statement saying quote "shamima begum is not to commit a horrible act. with this statement saying "shamima begum is not a bangladeshi citizen. earlier this month, pope francis she is a british citizen by birth

admitted that clerics in france had and has never applied for dual sexually abused nuns, nationality with bangladesh." and in one case, they were kept as sex slaves. and there is no question of her being allowed here's barbara dorris again. to enter into bangladesh." that makes this story we spotted even more interesting. well, it was shocking a story on the middle east eye that he talked about it, from last year saying that and yet he hasn't fixed the problem. a court in london handed back he hasn't stopped them from doing citizenship to two british men who had had their nationality it, he hasn't held them accountable. stripped on security grounds — and i think that tells us a lot, rendering them stateless. that the changes are going to come according to the article, the british government had wrongly from the outside, from civil determined the two men were british—bangladeshi dual nationals. authorities who stop showing excessive deference to church some have concerns other officials and hold them accountable like they would anyone else, from the media, educating people than the legality — about these crimes and making them aware that it's not a problem from the past, journalist rania abouzeid said this "isis worked to eliminate the gray zone, ie it's an ongoing problem. an inclusive multicultural society, to drive a wedge b/w and so i think between the survivors muslims & others. refusing to remain silent, stripping begum of citizenship the media highlighting because her parents and explaining these crimes came from a country and civil authorities having she 5 never visited enforces a 2—tier system, not fully british. where are you really the courage to prosecute these from? " shamima begum's family is going to fight crimes, i think that the government's decision. will bring about the change. but this lawyer says don't expect james reynolds has been a decision on that soon. following the reaction from the cardinals‘ letter in rome.

the next steps would be, i assume that shamima begum is going to appeal against the decision, it is worth saying that these to the immigration appeals two cardinals are open, well—established critics of pope commission and that process can be very, very lengthy and complex francis. and one of the greatest problem they have been for a number of years now. they feel he's taking the church is that i have with the system in the wrong direction. clearly an important is that much of the evidence summit is coming up, against an individual and they have made a particular allegation in their is in closed procedures, six—paragraph letter. meaning that neither shamima begum nor her lawyers will have they say that what they call access to it or be able a "homosexual plague" is essentially responsible for the wave of abuse to challenge it in court. there's also questions about the citizenship of ms begum's against children within the church, baby, who was born in the refugee and that the sexuality of these camp a few days ago. priests is to blame. there is of course a counterargument we know her husband was an isis to that, that sexuality is not fighterfrom the netherlends — the point, the point is unchecked and converted to islam. here's lord carlile, power over young people. a former independent reviewer of terrorism legislation in london. which of course been the defining the baby is entitled to british nationality. the baby is probably entitled to bangladesh nationality factor in cases of abuse outside and the baby's father is dutch. dutch law is a little different. the church in which straight men if the father, who apparently have abused young girls. president putin has warned is still alive, and vows the united states against deploying new missiles in europe. that the baby, says that the baby he threatened to retaliate in kind is his, as he appears to be, by targeting western capitals

with his own new weaponry. then the baby can also take a listen. receive dutch nationality. translation: many people in the american ruling class here's quentin somerville are too taken with the idea of their exceptionalism, with more on that interview. their supremacy over this is the second time i've spoken the rest of the world. they can think what they want, to shamima begum, and today she was but can they count? far more downbeat. let them count the range she said she was shocked and the speed of the weapons and upset by the decision of systems we are developing. the home secretary to strip her that's what we ask. of her british citizenship. she said she believed let them make their calculations that decision to be unjust. first and then take decisions that she said she wasn't bangladeshi, might create additional serious she'd never been to bangladesh, and that she stress for our country. barely spoke bengali. and which of course lead it is not my home, she said. to reciprocal actions from russia. this was a life—changing decision, and she was surprised that let's get some context. the home secretary or no one from the home office had spoken to her earlier this month, the trump administration announced directly. its intention to withdraw from a key in fact, no one from the british arms control agreement, government or the british the intermediate—range nuclear forces treaty, military has visited her that former us president ronald reagan and soviet leader and investigated her case, she said. mikhail gorbachev signed in 1987. she regrets being a member of is. and president putin is referring to this. the us says it's pulling out because russia violated the treaty she said she had a change of heart when by developing missiles like this one, that goes beyond they imprisoned her husband, a dutchjihadist, and tortured him. the range allowed.

she maintains that escape from is but president putin disputes that. territory was almost impossible. he says the us abandoned the treaty they did manage to get out to free its hands so it can build in the end, and a group of 50 other new missiles and tried to shift people, with the help the blame on russia. of a people smuggler. she says that she understands why mr putin made the comments during his annual state the british public are unsympathetic of the union address in moscow. towards her, because of the scale sarah rainsford was there. and the horror of the islamic state group's crimes. when i asked her, what would this is a speech that vladimir putin is very used to making, you tell a young person considering joining is or another his 15th state of the nation address extremist group, she said, no, don't do it. here in moscow. they are lying to you. her priority now his speech set out his take on how things are going in russia is her three—day—old son, jafar, and she says and his planned programmes that she'll be looking for the future. after him, wherever the focus was very much the two of them end up. on the domestic agenda for the first part of the speech. we've also just heard that another former so—called is bride hoda muthana — pictured mr putin's tone, one of understanding of russia's here in a new york times problems and one of strictness with the politicians here, article — has had her american citizenship revoked. who are now tasked with improving according to this, she surrendered the standard of living for russians last month to coalition forces this year as an absolute priority. is now in a refugee camp. but in the past hour the us after that focus on the domestic state department has agenda, mr putin then moved released this statement to the international stage. stripping her of her he accused america of violating american nationality — saying she has no right to a passport. a very critical arms control treaty, so what will happen to the foreign the inf treaty, which limited

fighters — and the women — the number of short and mid—range who went to join is? missiles in europe. here's frank gardner. now, america has pulled out of that, and mr putin said any the military success of the 79 steps that follow now, nation four your campaign nation four year campaign russia will retaliate in kind. to deplete, destroy and eradicate this islamic state caliphate has been matched by the failure to come you're not worried about global security at this point? up with a proper catchalljudicial i am worried about global security, process for processing all these thousands of people who now lives in limbo. but i feel much better when russia so you have got president trump calling on europe to is armed with the west approaching, take back the citizens. its infrastructure europe does not want to. too close to us. that kind of patriotic talk will be in the case of france, for example, theirjails are already stuffed full popular with many russians, but i think what a lot of people of convicted jihadists. who watched the speech they can barely afford for is what impacts mr putin's to take any more. germany, denmark, france, britain, promises might have on their lives. this is a time when people really they have all got the same issue are feeling the pinch and none of them want to take economically, and the question is whether they will believe these people back. all the promises that the president is still making them. shamima begum escaped one person has died of his injuries from the town of baghuz — after being hit by an avalanche that's islamic state's last in switzerland yesterday. stronghold in syria. he was one of four people rescued us—backed syrian and kurdish forces have the area surrounded — after tonnes of poured down and are said to be close to defeat. onto a marked ski slope in crans montana, a ski resort these pictures have

come in from baghuz in the swiss alps busy in the past couple of hours. with half—term skiers. these lorries are carrying civilians who were thought to be imogen foulkes has more. trapped in the town. the un says some convoys it began as a perfect had come under attack by islamic static fighters. day in the mountains. good snow, sunny skies and with half baghuz is islamic states‘only term holidays across europe, remaining territory in syria — and defeat would formally bring thousands of families out skiing. an end to the ‘caliphate‘ it proclaimed in 2014. and then the unthinkable. the islamic state that roar in the background, once held a territory the size of britain — the start of a huge avalanche. 88 thousand square miles stretching from western syria to eastern iraq. it imposed a brutal rule on almost 8—million people — watch again as tonnes of snow poured and was able to fund its caliphate because of oil revenue, down onto a marked slope. through extortion and kidnappings. but what a reversal of fortunes. five years later the group's territory has been reduced to just this — 50 square miles of land. first reports suggested up here's mark lowen in irbil. to a dozen people were buried, a massive rescue operation was launched and police warned that this was this is not the end of a very serious incident. the islamic state group, remember. some of the is fighters who were holed up there in that last translation: the avalanche is 840 patch of territory we understand metres long and 100 metres wide. have escaped through

tunnels into the desert. 400 metres of snow hit there are still sleeper cells across iraq and syria and the fear the ski slope directly. that after so much war, so much damage, so much poverty despite rescuers arriving very in these two countries that they could be a resurgence quickly on the scene, of is in the next few months there are at this moment four and years if it is not injured, including one whose if there is not sustained pressure life is in danger and three others with a less serious injuries. rescuers continued to work brought to bear against them. all night, but found no one else. stay with us on outside source — still to come... the police say no one has been reported missing. we'll give you your daily brexit update — they now hope the four people pulled today theresa may has from the snow yesterday were the only ones trapped. been in brussels. but this morning came the sad news that one of the injured, the prime minister has a 34—year—old french man working said she is "saddened" in the ski patrol service, by the resignations of three had died in hospital. conservative mps have resigned from the party today. asked whether she would do anything differently in response the search has now been to the mps‘ various criticisms called off and an official investigation has begun. of the government's brexit strategy, theresa may insisted her approach was in keeping with the wishes there are serious questions over how of the british public. such a massive snow slide the question of our membership of the european union has been a matter of disagreement could ever hit a marked slope, in our party for many years now especially when the risk of and it was never going to be avalanche had been assessed as low. easy for the uk to leave

the european union after over a0 years of membership. stay with us on outside source, still to come: the burning man but i believe that by delivering festival comes under fire on the result of the referendum, for offering luxury and glamour to those who can afford it, which was our manifesto commitment, we are doing the right defeating the purpose of the event. thing by the country. we're live in san francisco to find out more. and we are ensuring that by doing that we can actually then move forward together to a brighter future. but for the conservative party, under my leadership, one of the three conservative mps i am determined that we will offer who resigned today is anna soubry, mp for broxtowe in nottinghamshire. alex forsyth spent the day the decent, the moderate, in her constituency. the patriotic politics that i believe people in the uk want to see and that people it seems serene at beeston conservative club today, in the uk deserve. but the vacancy left by anna soubry‘s decision to leave the party has caused ripples. this is outside source live not many were keen to talk, from the bbc newsroom. despite the welcome sign, our lead story is? still working out what it the teenager who ran away tojoin isis in syria — shamima begum — reacts to plans might mean here. to remove her british citizenship — telling the bbc she most people inside say they only

heard the news via the media this expected more sympathy. morning and they're keen to digest it before they make any comment. the local chairman did give a short statement about anna soubry‘s departure. theresa may has once again returned she has been a hard—working and dedicated mp and we to brussels to try to get wish her all the very best. changes to the brexit deal we will be selecting our she agreed with the eu last year. new conservative candidate here she is meeting as soon as possible. jean—claude juncker. going into the meeting, expectations that this encounter would yield any results were low. this constituency voted to leave the eu, but their mp has been a vocal critic of how brexit playing out. our european editor tweeted. .. i think she gets people's backs up. ‘i just asked jean claudejuncker — whose version of theresa may 5 she will not stand a chance imminent visit to brussels was correct. as an independent, not downing streets — with the intimation that backstop as a conservative to be honest. breakthrough is imminent? or his — that no she has done the right thing. breakthrough was expected ? why? mine came his answer'. we voted for something and now well, we got a joint statement we know the full facts from the two of them just which are do it again. before we came on air. there has been tension between anna soubry and some members of her own party. last summer, she said there was an attempt to oust her and more recently there have been claims that across the country conservative mps who do not back brexit are at risk

of being pushed out. is anna soubry out of step and here is mrs may speaking a short while ago. well, i have had a constructive with her constituents? meeting with presidentjean—claude she wanted to stay, juncker this evening. i have underlined the need for us but the people voted to go out. to see legally binding changes derek wanted to leave the eu to the backstop that ensure as well, but has a different view. that it cannot be indefinite, that is what is required if a deal party politics are killing the best interests of this country. is to pass the house of commons. little harmony here over anna soubry‘s decision, we have agreed that work to find a solution will continue at pace, some even suggesting they should have a say over her future. time is of the essence and it is in both our interests that when the uk leaves the eu it does so in an orderly way. so we have made progress. theresa may is right that this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. time is of the essence. our lead story is: it's only 37 days until the uk is set to leave. the teenager who ran away as we've said before, tojoin isis in syria, shamima begum, reacts to plans the sticking point is the backstop. to remove her british the backstop relates to this border, citizenship, telling the bbc between the republic of ireland and northern ireland, she expected more sympathy. which would become the only land border between the uk other stories from around the bbc newsroom right now. and the eu after brexit. the un commission on human rights in south sudan has voiced outrage both agree there should be no about renewed fighting that has prompted thousands of people border checks along it, to flee their homes. so the brexit wtihdrawal agreement

says until a final trade deal the commission said armed men had attacked villages, is agreed, the uk will stay raped women and set fire in the european customs union. to dwellings that often parliament won't vote for it, had people inside. because they are worried it will trap the uk in the customs union indefinitely, that's on bbc afrique. and the eu won't change it, because doing that risks a hard border on the island of ireland. belgian police are holding three here's katya adler, on how much members of the european parliament and an activist who trespassed progress was made today. on a us air force base to protest against nuclear weapons. the base is thought to hold some nothing new. of the 480 american nuclear missiles held in six european nato countries. really, nothing new, which, you know, leads the eu to question why the prime minister comes... a us—based organisation that campaigns for lgbt athletes has officials know that she comes ended its links with tennis legend because she needs to be seen back martina navratilova. home to be pushing for what she said it's over comments she made about male—to—female transgender athletes. the group athlete ally said just there, we heard her statement, the remarks were transphobic and perpetuated myths. she is pushing for legally binding changes to the backstop, but can ijust add something to what you were saying there, that the eu is saying no time to check in again to her requests which are, with the nigerian elections. for example, for the uk logistics, bad weather and sabotage have been blamed to have a unilateral exit mechanism for the week's delay. from the backstop, for there to be a fixed determined end but will the commission be able to keep to its new deadline date to the backstop. they are saying, notjust and is it likely to have an impact on the result?

our nigeria correspondent because the backstop mayeni jones has been speaking to voters in abuja. is there to avoid a hard border on the island of ireland, i cried. but because fundamentally for the eu, as well as protecting the northern ireland peace process, seriously, it was painful. the backstop protects the single disappointment echoed market, that lucrative single market after brexit. as you say, that will become across nigeria this week. the land border between the eu sandra was hoping to vote single market and the post brexit uk. for the first time, but repeating it is 500 kilometres long. the eu says this 500 kilometre hole, the nine—hour trip to southern nigeria to vote if there is no backstop, would be to emotionally could lead to the smuggling of non—eu regulation goods and financially draining. through the back door, through northern ireland and the rest of the uk and that it was not a good example could cost them a lot more to the youth, because we are looking up to them than a new deal brexit. and they had like four years to prepare for this election. mohammed ibrahim has voted in every election since nigeria's return to democracy. he says he'll make the trip home than a no—deal brexit. to northern nigeria again. that is why the eu is not blinking, this is where we can if you like and there are warnings make our change. from the eu that there are too many when one is not satisfied mps in the eu view complacent with who is ruling, this is the only about the fact that it will be all right on the night alternative one has. and that the eu always blinks the end, but the eu blinks the electoral body still has large on its own interests task ahead, to make sure

and its interest is to protect its single market tens of millions people and that is where the two are not disappointed again. sides are stock. protect its single market and that that's a sound voters will be is where the two sides are stuck. hearing a lot of on election and we were expecting day, the sound of card that there might be another vote on that draft withdrawal agreement readers starting up. sometime next week in london. theresa may presumably had been hoping that there had been some kind these now need to be reconfigured of tweak to the agreement, to reflect the new election date to make it more palatable to mps? of the 23rd of february. that thing is, you say tweak. that's over 180,000 readers the eu says it is ready, any day, reconfigured and redeployed. 24—7, to provide legally binding ballot papers, resort sheets and over a million staff will also assurances on the backstop need to find their way or clarifications on this backstop and what do i mean by that? to the 120,000 polling stations. well, there are mps the centre for democracy who worry that the backstop, and development west africa says which may never be triggered, no clear evidence has surfaced that of course, let's not forget, any political party it is a guaranteed mechanism, that it could become the permanent instigated the delay. eu— uk relationship after brexit. but it does see one side benefiting. now, the eu has said, i want you to look at this over and again, it is a mechanism from a political basis designed never to be used, only to be used if it is absolutely and were the votes happened necessary and it would be temporary and where people have voted until a sophisticated trade deal in previous elections? could come into place it is in the northwest, which is over 20 million votes

between the eu and the uk. and a stronghold of the president's. so, the eu will provide legally voter apathy and a lower turnout binding guarantees in the form is expected this saturday. of assurances that everybody wants but it is still seen as a close race to work towards a trade deal as soon as possible, between the two main parties. that this mechanism is not designed the winner will be whoever to be permanent, but can re—energize those still willing to go out and vote. these are assurances. these are not the legally binding changes that theresa may has talked about, such as the fixed end date or a unilateral exit the burning man arts and music event mechanism and there, in the united states prides itself the eu says no. on "self—reliance" and providing a space for artistic expression. so, she could have these tweaks the event is held every year today if she wanted, she clearly isn't going for that and that makes it seem unlikely at black rock city in the nevada that there will be another desert north of reno, meaningful vote next week where a huge site is built with elaborate camps, and the concern, in much of the uk, dance stages, and massive in the eu is that the prime minister sculptures like these, before it all gets torn down is running down the clock, and rebuilt the following year. but this year, the organisers have with these 37 days to go to brexit taken action against so—called in the hope that mps will say, "turnkey" or "plug—and—play" camps. that's camps that offer luxury we cannot have no—deal brexit, and glamour at a high price. in this blog post, they say they've banned one camp, so let us go for this deal with the eventual tweaks humano the tribe, entirely. that the eu might offer, but of course, we may find that mps jump the gun themselves and vote for an extension to this leaving last year, its most expensive

process of the uk, if you like, accommodation, the moon village, which the eu of course cost up to $100,000 according is ready to offer them, to mashable and included two bedrooms and "super"—powerful air—conditioning. to agree to, because the eu wants a quick search of #humanothetribe to avoid a no—deal brexit. on instagram shows hundreds of posts and so it continues. by models and social media influencers, many tagging brands theresa may will now have an even harder time winning they are collaborating with. a vote in parliament, after 3 conservative mps left her party to go independent. let's speak to the burning man ceo, here they are, heidi allen, sarah wollaston and anna soubry. marian goodell, now. they say they left the conservatives because of the government's "disastrous handling" of brexit. welcome to you. what has led you to they nowjoin eight former labour make these changes and what you have mps in the independent group, making 11 in total. done? when we took a look at the way here's anna soubry after announcing her split from the conservatives. the culture of the city was changing, we took a look at ourselves and what we were doing to brexit is a catalyst manage those changes and we realise i think and actually, brexit has shown that all the main that it parties are broken and there manage those changes and we realise thatitis manage those changes and we realise that it is a collaboration between is much work to be done disciplines and the organisation in order to create a city. and we in our country about the future, about the causes of brexit and also realise that there are some camps healing the great divides that have come out of it. that were really, there are many camps that are bringing the right stuff and they are bringing their collaborative energy in the theresa may quickly gave her response. community, but there are camps that

‘i am saddened by this decision ? are not community, but there are camps that a re not really these are people who have community, but there are camps that are not really behaving in the given dedicated service culture and the principles and we to our party over many years, actually really have to put our foot and i thank them for it.‘ striking down and call out so that others a different tone from jeremy corbyn, when labour mps announced know how to do it right. we have to they were quitting the party on monday, who said ‘i am really point out when people are disappointed that these mps have doing it right. to sum up, the ethos felt unable to continue to work together for the labour policies that inspired millions as you would like it was so at the at the last election‘. consumerist when you first started, you could not buy or sell anything but coffee and ice. that is still the way we are exactly. we really here's norman smith on what the three conservative feel like it is notjust about the defectors will do to theresa may's luxury camping, it is about what majority in the brexit vote. people are bringing to the event. so we expect people to be a participant, we expect them to sorry, we are going to talk live to contribute their time and themselves jonathan blake. how much of the blow in order to create the community. so is this to theresa may?” if people are selling luxury jonathan blake. how much of the blow is this to theresa may? i will do my best impression of norman smith. convenient experiences, it is not this is undoubtedly a blow. it is no likely that a purchase but is going good to have mps from your own party to participate in the community like say i do not belong here and i quit. we expect. so we are very intense that is what happened this morning with those three conservative mps, and very focused on stopping it as heidi allen, terry wollaston and we can but actually asking to be

anna soubry giving their detailed dispensed not to use instagram to reasons as to why they feel they promote their products. it is not don't have a place in the really what burning man is about. it conservative party anymore. is about connecting with each other everything from policy, accusing the and creating a community and not government of letting down the most selling things. do you think the vulnerable in over welfare, to steps you are taking are going far brexit, what they said was the enough? looking at some of the online venture, many are saying this government's disastrous handling of that and also allowing the extreme has been a problem for years in this action should have been taken right wing of the party, as they put sooner. people also saying you are it, to take over the tories and hold increasing the number of tickets available to people on low incomes the leadership to ransom, by 18%. is that really going to effectively. so, a measured response change things? welcome that we are from theresa may saying she was disappointed but committed to delivering brexit on her terms, that also reducing the high dollar is the finding of the conservative ticket, which was very easy to get if you had to get if you had the party manifesto, coming out of the customs union and the single market high dollars. that was over $1000 if as well. three tory mps out of 250 i'm right. it was given over 1200. odd, you might not think it much, there were two levels we made it but with a slim majority in the convenient for people to buy more house of commons, it will make life than two. so we have taken that away more difficult for theresa may and it was already pretty tricky.|j and we have distributed those into the regular price and into the low more difficult for theresa may and it was already pretty tricky. i am thinking one vote in particular, how income price. that is a very much of a difference this will make important part. sorry to interrupt when it comes to voting on the

you but why would you need to have brexit withdrawal agreement? that is tickets that are costing around an interesting question. in the $1000 at all at an event with a immediate term, it might not make nicos like that a burning man? well, too much difference, because these three tory mps were against theresa everybody needs to pay for a ticket. may's brexit deal in its current we have over 70,000 disciplines had come there in the event costs us $34 form and campaigned to remain in the european union and are committed, not all of them, but at least one of million to do. so we do need tickets. now the higher dollar them, very heavily, to holding a tickets. now the higher dollar ticket helps underwrite the lower—cost ticket. and that also second referendum and they would in puts more money into our arts all likelihood vote against the deal when it came back to the commons, programme. and i am really pleased whether they were in the tory party that the community sees a difference or not. the fact that they have left with a $1200 ticket, you do not get will not change that, but it does mean they are now part of a group anything special, you don't get backstage access, you don't get which could potentially at some point in the future begin to have a things delivered for you. everybody, bit of influence and even hold the whether it's won $90 over 125 or balance of power within the house of 1200, all have the exact same commons. if they decide to vote as a access. what you were doing if you block one way or another, then it will be interesting to see what are contributing to the experience impact they have. talking of the by financially in a different way. brexit vote, we were possibly you have to show up and take part as expecting to have it next week. a community member in a more similar theresa may does not seem to come way. one question for you, somebody back from brussels very much at all,

has said that the nature of the will that change when the vote is held? well, if she has not got festival reflects the general culture of the us and the world. are anything to put to the house of you fighting a losing battle? well, commons, there is not going to be a vote. there has been talk that it we might tend to agree that it could have been brought forward at reflects the united states and not some point in the next couple of the world. i do think that to not weeks, but that requires theresa may to have something to show for only technology but consumer culture herself after talks with brussels has made it really easy for us to and those legally binding changes buy what we need, what we want, and she is seeking to the backstop, controversial part of the withdrawal pushing a place to camp. but i don't agreement, which is there to keep an think we are fighting a losing open border in those circumstances. battle. we would not be so popular until she has that, it is hard to and have tens of thousand people see what mps would be voting on, other than the deal as it stands, that don't get tickets, we wouldn't have 80 events around the world that which they have already roundly rejected. we are just waiting to are happening somewhere affiliate with us. we appreciate your time, see, iam rejected. we are just waiting to see, i am afraid. jonathan, thank you very much. jonathan joining see, i am afraid. jonathan, thank you very much. jonathanjoining us thank you very much. cl a burning live from westminster. manjoining us thank you very much. cl a burning man joining us live from thank you very much. cl a burning manjoining us live from san francisco. you probably recall... you'll probably rememberjust before christmas there was chaos at london's gatwick airport the cause? repeated sightings of drones. three weeks ago the us the airport was forced federal reserve sent shock waves to close its runway for 36 hours, around the markets when it refused to hike interest rates...and causing scenes like this.

threw its whole policy of raising rates into doubt. almost 150,000 passengers and over well the minutes of the last fed meeting are just being released — 1000 flights were affected. and they'll give an important insight into the thinking so now, the uk government has of the world's most announced that no—fly zones powerful central bank. michelle fleury joins for drones around airports us from new york.... what have we learned are being extended. from the minutes? our transport correspondent federal reserve officials are tom burridge reports. increasingly cautious and we got some insight into what led them to pause the cycle of rate hikes they film a drone with a drone, had begun last year. going through, and it's easy to spot. but further away, it if you look at the list of reasons can quickly disappear. they have, talking about words that come up, brexit is one of them, try that's just part of the challenge if someone is determined concerns as another, slowing growth to illegally fly a drone in china and europe is another. there was also that government near or into an airport. shutdown we saw here in the us, that most drones can fly at more than 60 had a knock—on impact on the amount mph on pre—programmed flights, so, of economic data that was actually detecting them, tracking them, available to officials within the and countering them, if necessary, federal reserve. that left them is anything but straightforward. flying slightly blind. one thing they were looking out was the credit conditions in america, they thought from november, all drones will have to be registered, and if you fly one, you will have consumers were perhaps doing better to do some online training. spreading more, if you look at today, the aviation minister said retail sales figures, they were a drone exclusion zones around bit disappointing for the month of airports will be expanded from one

december. there was a bit of that, kilometre to five kilometres from the middle of next month. all kind of playing to that mood that will help people understand that if anyone is flying music in the federal reserve, which a drone in that area, is that the economy was looking a they are not doing so legally bit shaky. and that should help the police in their investigation. we are also boosting the campaign to ensure that people what are businesses and the markets making of this doubt about future are aware of the rules. interest rate rises? and we're also going to bring in a drones bill later this year i think for the markets, when this which is going to expand police powers to help them announcement first came out in in their investigation. january, at the end of that meeting, that will allow them to land and seize the drone, they change their stance when it and also expanding the use of stop and search powers. came to rate rises, looking at 2019 asa came to rate rises, looking at 2019 after the disruption at gatwick as a whole. markets were caught off just before christmas, all major airports have been working on their procedures and systems guard and they were pleasantly to detect and possibly surprised when they saw a round—up even combat drones. in the markets. today investors were if we point the device really looking over these minutes to at the drone... try and confirm what they thought this nottinghamshire company also hopes the law they understood, said officials at will change so their equipment, which jams the signal a drone needs to operate, they understood, said officials at the january meeting, and broadly speaking, it seems they are in line, can be used more widely. gatwick has prompted a rethink. that there is the sense of concern about the economy and i spent time going through the minutes and i counted the risks, seven times, it

gatwick, for me, was a deliberate act, and something that we've not gives you the sense of caution that seen anywhere before, exists within the american central not only in uk but anywhere in the world, so, it was bank right now. thank you very much. really well planned, not using standard commercial drones. so, if you've got a deliberate adversary who really knows about the technology and can apply it in a way to cause harm, then it is very, very next — to south africa difficult to combat that. the boss of one regional airport and to the largest government told me there is now a protocol bailout in its history. it's to rescue the state so the military can be called power company eskom. in, if necessary. milton nkosi looks but those in charge of regulating the aviation industry say at how we got here. it is a balance between safety, africa's most developed economy and enabling the huge potential that drones can offer. again struggling with a wave of blackouts. south africa's power utility eskom has instituted rolling time to power cuts to avert a total collapse time to recap on one of our top of the electricity grid. as it did stories him a response from in 2008 and 2014. bangladesh saying the 19—year—old of the electricity grid. as it did in 2008 and 201a. it of the electricity grid. as it did in 2008 and 2014. it is the latest who fled london to join the islamic threat to an already struggling state is not a mailer that sheets it economy. veronica has been selling is in and there is no question of her being allowed into mala ——. ice cream to supplement the income is in and there is no question of her being allowed into mala --. back same time tomorrow. she makes from her vegetable stand. but over the past few days she has run ata but over the past few days she has run at a loss. she has had to throw away more than ten litres of milk.

hello there. in this ten day she tells me she is frustrated and forecast we look ahead as far as the she is losing money. every time the beginning of march, which as far as power goes off, she is having to turn away customers. there are a meteorologists are concerned is the start of spring. back to say it feels like spring has jumped the gun number of reasons for the power and arrived early. 15 degrees in crisis, among them to interlink coal northeast gotland on wednesday. but supplies, a shortage of fans and why is it so warm? it is probably delayed maintenance. we are in an down to winter holding on across emergency, we are in a crisis mode and today you begin to feel the north america. cold air plunging southwards, driving a powerfuljet effects of state capitol on the one strea m southwards, driving a powerfuljet stream high up in the atmosphere. hand, but also the reality that you the jet stream and the strong winds and atmosphere blowing in excess of have very old power stations 230 mph and thejet and atmosphere blowing in excess of 230 mph and the jet has scooped up some really warm air from operating. among the emergency plans 230 mph and the jet has scooped up some really warm airfrom closer to the caribbean. that tropical air has announced, in an effort to stabilise been heading in our direction, cooling a little on its journey but the country's electricity supply is the country's electricity supply is still with the potential to produce the redeployment of senior managers, usually based here at the power some really high temperatures, 17, maybe 18 degrees over the next couple of days. it might feel like utility's headquarters in johannesburg, into nearly 20 power stations located across the country. spring but thursday will not necessarily look like it first thing we will be back with more on outside post up a lot of cloud around, some source coming up splashes of rain which tends to die we will be back with more on outside source coming up in a few minutes' away as the day wears on. to see time. stay with us.

more breaks in the cloud and more sunny spells especially when you get shelter from this south—westerly wind. across northeast gotland, here are the best of the sunshine and hello there. as we go through the temperatures here could get to 17, next few days we will have to keep a possibly 18 degrees. as a moving to close eye on what is happening in the coral sea just off the east friday, high pressure builds strongly out of continental europe towards the south east of the uk. coast of australia because we have not many white lions, not many got a tropical cyclone which is isobars on that chart so the light developing and it looks likely that it could change its track and move winds which could encourage some fog in that fog across the southeastern towards the south queensland coast. corner of the uk could be quite slow this area of high pressure builds down towards tasmania and it will to clear on friday. aside from that, most to clear on friday. aside from that, move that low close to the m ost pla ces to clear on friday. aside from that, most places drop with spells of coastline. still the track is very uncertain indeed, but it could patchy rain in the far northwest potentially make landfall during the temperatures again for one or two of early hours of saturday morning. it us temperatures again for one or two of us could get to 17 or 18 degrees. as is not unheard of to have a cyclone we head into the start of the week and, high pressure hose from across europe. frontal systems try to make landfall close to brisbane but squash in from the west and this is the kind of weather set that brings it is very unusual indeed. it will us the kind of weather set that brings usato the kind of weather set that brings bring some rough seas, strong, us a to the late winter, perhaps not the really tropical air of the next damaging gusts of wind and obviously couple of days but still fairly warm some very damaging gusts of wind and obviously some very heavy rain to go with it as well. you will want to keep a air wafting couple of days but still fairly warm airwafting in our couple of days but still fairly warm air wafting in our direction so close eye and we have got dangerous temperatures will stay above

seas and weather warnings in force, average. sunny spells for most on a saturday in a frontal system coupled with some abnormally high bringing rain to western scotland tides and there is a great level of and northern ireland. those uncertainty at the track this store temperatures 14—16d. sunday could may take, so you need to keep start off with some misty, murky watching the forecast. staying with foggy conditions and local app which the theme of storms and wintry will tend to lift and think weather, we have got plenty of heavy brightening up at the day wears on most of those two pictures mainly rain, possibly tornado activity just a little bit down depending on moving through the mississippi valley towards ohio with snow on the how much sunshine we seek him a leading it moves into new york 12-13d how much sunshine we seek him a 12—13d so not bad at all for this time of year. as we go into the across the great lakes, as far north start of the new working week kim of as illinois and at the same time, we the new working week and with a have snow showers moving on from the weather pattern changes only very slowly. my pressure relief taking pacific northwest affecting the rockies as well, but looking further charge of the scene. underneath that ican charge of the scene. underneath that i can but we have relatively light ahead, once that area moves away, it winds and some fog again on monday morning. then we see some spells of will be replaced by another, bringing in warmerairwith sunshine and those temperatures will be replaced by another, bringing in warmer air with it, so still in the range of 13 to maybe 15 temperatures on the rise, but there is more potential for heavy rain and degrees, still way above where they storms to develop again across the should be. as we head deeper into mississippi valley up through ohio next week, this looks familiar. the as well. certainly one to watch jet stream flowing across the atla ntic jet stream flowing across the atlantic and heading north of the uk here. across south asia, heavy rain allowing us to continue tapping in and some snow as well, with to some very allowing us to continue tapping in to some very warm allowing us to continue tapping in to some very warm air from the

south. with that, high—pressure thunderstorm warnings out in parts likely to be in charge of the scene. of pakistan and north—west india, some of that snowfall could be some uncertainty about exactly where this high—pressure will end up. it significant and it will continue to may allow systems close to the track its way across the himalayas northwest of the uk but it is most as well. elsewhere it is largely fine and quiet. an area of high likely as we head through next week into an early march, will stay pressure in europe is keeping things largely try with some chilly nights, quiet as well with a south—westerly some foggy mornings but by day, we wind driving in a milderair, a good deal of drier weather in the see some sunshine and it will forecast and some warmth to go with continue to feel quite warm. signs it, a scattering of showers for of spring as we approach the turkey but it is looking promising beginning of march. through grace and the great guys along with italy and france. spain and portugal could see temperatures in the low 20s as we move into the weekend and then that milder air pushing across the uk, but toppling across the mild air, going to turn bitterly cold, briefly across the east of europe. the story remains the same, very mild, a lot of dry weather and sunshine, so it will feel like an early taste of spring. more details on that coming up in half an hour.
