hello, you're watching newsday on bbc news. i'm rico hizon in singapore. the headlines. now it's time for the weather with ben rich. hello there. in this ten day forecast the archbishop of mumbai admits we look ahead as far that he could've handled allegations as the beginning of march, of sexual abuse better and faster, which as far as meteorologists are concerned is the start of spring. after a bbc investigation. this ahead of an historic vatican i must say it feels like spring has summit on abuse later on thursday. jumped the gun and arrived early. bangladesh dismisses suggestions 15 degrees in northeast that shamema begum might be allowed gotland on wednesday. but why is it so warm? to enter the country, it is probably down to winter after britain removes her uk citizenship. holding on across north america. ms begum says she cold air plunging southwards, driving a powerfuljet stream high expected more sympathy. up in the atmosphere. the jet stream and the strong winds and atmosphere blowing in excess i was hoping that britain would of 230 mph and the jet has scooped understand that i made a mistake, a very big mistake, because i was up some really warm air from closer to the caribbean. young and naive. i'm kasia madera in london. that tropical air has been heading in our direction, also in the programme... cooling a little on its journey but still with the potential to produce some really high temperatures, 17, maybe 18 degrees over the next couple of days. it might feel like spring but thursday will not necessarily

look like it first thing post up a lot of cloud around, some splashes of rain which tends to die away as the day wears on. to see 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 temperatures here could get to 17, possibly 18 degrees. as we move into friday, high pressure builds strongly out of continental europe towards the south east of the uk. not many white lines, not many isobars on that chart so the light winds which could encourage some fog in that fog across the southeastern corner of the uk could be quite slow to clear on friday. aside from that, most places drop with spells of patchy rain in the far northwest temperatures again for one or two of us could get to 17 or 18 degrees. as we head into the start of the week and, high pressure hose from across europe. frontal systems try to squash in from the west and this is the kind of weather set that brings us a to the late winter, perhaps not the really tropical air

of the next couple of days but still fairly warm air wafting in our direction so temperatures will stay above average. sunny spells for most on a saturday in a frontal system bringing rain to western scotland and northern ireland. those temperatures 14—16d. sunday could start off with some misty, murky foggy conditions and local app which will tend to lift and think brightening up at the day wears on most of those two pictures mainlyjust a little bit down depending on how much sunshine we seek him a 12—13d so not bad at all for this time of year. as we go into the start of the new working week kim of the new working week and with a weather pattern changes only very slowly. then we see some spells of sunshine and those temperatures still in the range of 13 to maybe 15 degrees, still way above where they should be. as we head deeper into next week, this looks familiar. the jet stream flowing across the atlantic and heading

north of the uk allowing us to continue tapping in to some very warm air from the south. with that, high—pressure likely to be in charge of the scene. some uncertainty about exactly where this high—pressure will end up. it may allow systems close to the northwest of the uk but it is most likely as we head through next week into an early march, will stay largely try with some chilly nights, some foggy mornings but by day, we see some sunshine and it will continue to feel quite warm. signs of spring as we approach the beginning of march. hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment — first the headlines. three conservative mps quit the party over the government's handling of brexit. today, theyjoined the new

‘independent group‘ — on the other side of the commons. meanwhile, theresa may holds more talks with european commission presidentjean—claude juncker in brussels in her quest to secure a revised brexit deal. bangladesh says there is "no question" of shamima begum being allowed to enter the country — after the uk government said they intended to revoke her british citizenship. iconic raf tornados make a series of farewell flypasts after being retired from the skies. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are broadcaster & author, john kampfner, and economics and trade correspondent at the telegraph, anna isaacs.

many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. like many of tomorrow's papers, the telegraph leads with the three rebel mps who've left the conservative party to join the new independent group. the daily mail claims one of the three — heidi allen — said she wanted to "kill off" the tory party. the trio also make the front of the financial times — along with a report that sainsburys‘ planned multi—billion—pound take over of asda is on the brink of collapse. the metro highlights the mps‘ claims that the conservative party is falling into the clutches of brexit hardliners. while the times says former prime minister, david cameron, urged the three conservative defectors to stay in the party, hours before they announced their decision to quit. the independent, meanwhile, picks up on a differnt story —

the number of britons stripped, like shamima begum, of their citizenship has apparently soared by more than 600% in a year. those are the front pages. let's ta ke those are the front pages. let's take a more in—depth look at some of those stories. starting with the mail. killed tory party. slightly disingenuous headline. for heidi allen. it does express a sentiment that she was communicating which is, if in her view this new group do theirjob properly, there won't be a tory party to go back to. it is a pretty strong statement to have made. i don't know if i would put "kill" there but it fits neatly in the headline. it is quite surprising. maybe people were expecting a couple of tory deflections, but particularly anna

soubry who has been in the tory ra nks soubry who has been in the tory ranks for so long and so integral to the cameron project, still leading toa the cameron project, still leading to a lot of their ideology and what people would perceive to be a modern tory, for her to have made this move caught more of the anti—soubry voices and departed by surprise. lot of blameless place at the door of the erg as well. yes, and such early dates for this party. 0r of the erg as well. yes, and such early dates for this party. or for this group that will become a party. ido this group that will become a party. i do wonder if one of them —— if one of the main aims is at this last stage to stop brexit, whether the timing of doing it now works to that cause. in some ways, it plays into the hands of them not really belonging to their parties anyway and not being at home in it. it makes that cause, the people's mode,

second referendum, it makes itjust a little bit harder a task. although those people would not have voted for theresa may's revamped package as and when she eventually does bring it back to the commons. right at the last minute having run down the clock as much as possible. this will be a long—term question. the first snap opinion polls giving 10%, one point ahead of the lead dance interestingly enough. if you put those two together, that is already ten —— 20% of the population. novelty factor as well. do you think they will make a real impact. in terms of defining their identity now, they are the anti—brexit party. i think their impact will be defined as whether or not we end up having a snap election. their potential to be a real force snap election. their potential to be a realforce in politics will be defined in the next six weeks. whether or not we had into every election are not one of the most interesting aspects is amber rudd saying she regretted that they had

left, but she was almost leading them a degree of licence by saying she would divorce he can to avoid a no—deal brexit. if you are sitting around the cabinet table at and we 110w around the cabinet table at and we now they are having their heated discussions just now over what kind of terrace and what kind of an independent trade policy of the uk should have after we leave, you have just got a little bit more ammunition in your back pocket now. you know that a deflection from the cabinet table, unlikely as it might be, but that element of knowing how distressed greg clark was over that issue. the polarisation at that table is becoming more extreme. issue. the polarisation at that table is becoming more extremelj issue. the polarisation at that table is becoming more extreme. i am old enough to have covered politics either very closely or quite closely since the start of each major area.

the tradition exposition of postwar politics is all if you had a centre—right party that started in the middle and went quite a long way to the right. not to the extreme, but a long way. and you had a ce ntreleft party but a long way. and you had a centreleft party that started in the middle and went in that direction again, not extreme. now you have got the two main parties that do not beginning the middle at all. they beginning the middle at all. they begin already on the distinct right and distinct left. by the nature of basic mass, you have got a big mass of people who belong to the centre, eithera of people who belong to the centre, either a european—style centre right democracy or you central left, social democracy. they belong to those parties and how they are homeless. some are now sticking to their parties either through tactic or tribal loyalty, but a lot of people, if it works out, will be very attracted to this new group.

somebody was trying to keep them at home, david cameron. if we turn to the front page of the times. what did he say in who is he speaking to? he definitely spoke to anna soubry and that he sent her a message. she did an interview for the red box podcast saying is there anything i can do to persuade you to stay, essentially. anna soubry had a close relationship with george osborne and still defends the austerity project. that is where i start to question the analysis of the idea that we have had a straight forward hollowing out of the middle and extreme polarisation of right and left. it is true to an extent, but the problem is we really don't know where the metal begins and ends because it is so defined by the wider argument of brexit and we don't really know what unites these forces. on the one hand you have to heidi allen him for a long time made aggressive and assertive speeches about the problems with the roll—out of universal credit. you are hearing

flagship tory policy being ripped apart. you have a semi—moderate voice in amber rudd who has been apologising for universal credit ever since she became in charge of it. and also anna soubry defending the austerity project, one of the most controversial things a bit less to cut back the money behind the universal credit project. that is really different in terms of their placing the at most policy shadows building up around the independent group, these are some of the forces that plate that are not strictly brexit related. that is important. as for david cameron from his oxfordshire pile and his slinky caravan, and percent sorry, with its posh paint and writing the very big

advance he got for his book. he was the guy who got us all into this mess by calling a referendum that one could argue he did not need to call. so his stock, whether you are a one nation tory or any of the order gradations of conservatism are not one, it is pretty well. the idea of him trying to persuade anybody to do anything is pretty limited —— his stock is pretty low. the telegraph. this has been going on for a few days. shamima begum and the question over citizenship. you touched on this idea of treason. many people on the streets are saying isn't this an act of treason, is it as simple as that? the advice was a very clearly do not call and if you go there may

be nothing we can do for you, you are essentially fleeing to an enemy of the state. you may not be able to return. it was made clear that the ease with which you would be able to return would be severely limited. isis is clearly an enemy of the uk state. they are against all the values it stands for, but on a fundamental level they simply do not wa nt fundamental level they simply do not want it to exist any more. what a lot of people are starting to question and some legal commentators who are much better informed than i am, having read some of their reasoning, it is that the we have adequate laws in the country to deal with a due process with someone like samina bacon? partly that is found to the whole issue around age of criminal responsibility and the grooming she may have been subject to that led to her radicalisation and her decision to flee to syria. it next bigger questions of what defined as someone an enemy of

state. the netherlands has said, because she could have a claim over a right to live there, they will not have her in the country because he isa have her in the country because he is a threat to national security. the independent is saying the same thing. it is raising the question of how you deal with the repatriation, 01’ no how you deal with the repatriation, or no longer in this particular case although it will be subject to withdrawal of her citizenship and i have no doubt will be subject to a lengthy legal — process is question if repatriation is becoming more difficult and this is why you have this 600% increase. although i get very frustrated when people use percentage increases and these cases. but a meaningful number of people who are effectively being stripped of their citizenship are told they cannot return to the uk. what you do and that number as a few zeros to it? and leads to greater processes of radicalisation?”

zeros to it? and leads to greater processes of radicalisation? i would add two points to it. one is you can technically do it if they have somewhere else to go to. they cannot simply be stranded in perpetuity in refugee camps. for a start, that will intensify their radicalisation and it won't solve any problems. but also these questions are incredibly complicated. on every front — ethically, legally, in terms of security politics and what is the best thing for a country to protect itself. what really annoys me is on secretaries, and this particular one such hiv, but also from secretaries before of both governments —— sajid javid. there is an idea and be, for that loves what i call silly chester politics, the lock them up and throw away the key type of approach to

what are incredibly difficult issues. the dutch will not have her, the bangladeshi foreign minister has said that they will not have her, such hiv is almost certain to lose the battle in the courts. —— shaji david. but it is a battle for purely political reasons. to seem like a lie not a politician. seems like an issue of international law. that was the independent. let's turn to the ft. this is bad news for sainsbury‘s. it sounds like it could be good news for us at shoppers is popular it is a really, really tricky one. what we have at the moment is one of the biggest emergencies and supermarket history. being a very old uk brand. 7 billion compared to the tesco— booker merger, which was not too supermarket and a really important distinction when it comes to the row

that sainsbury‘s is having with their competition and marcus authorities. what tesco did is they bought at wholesale. it was not the person you would as an ordinary customer go to to do your supermarket shop. it was a supplier to supermarkets. but with sainsbury‘s and asda are doing, too big supermarkets coming together. that creates a host of different things. having a lot of store closures involved. that is technically a reduction of customer choices. it is not like you might be able to go to one just down the road, but you'll have to do a lot further. it gives them huge buying power within the markets. when it comes to what the competition watchdog looks out for, they look at buying power in a market because thatis buying power in a market because that is what means there is enough competition to stop it becoming a monopoly. to stop people being able to say we will fix prices of cabbages are potatoes or whatever, and our buying power is so great that that is what you will have to sell it for. it forces down business

models and things like that. mike cooper is right anyway he is being judged by sainsbury‘s, and unguarded moment off camera singing about money. but he is writing to some ways to say he is being just by a different standard. but it is a very different standard. but it is a very different kind of take over where it is to supermarkets and not wholesalers. can i ask you to go to the times just because we are running out of time. it is the drones, back on the front page. really interesting story, the times saying that initial security investigations are working on the supposition that this was an inside job, that hypothetically it could have been a disgruntled employee.

that is what the source told the times. the drone pilot near the blind spots where it could not be taken out. if that is the case i am scratching my head as to why this person would do it. it is a curious and vicarious enjoyment and seeing lots of people's christmas holidays get ruined. i cannot see what the financial gain in any of this was. what was bizarre and what remains was the complete inability of the police and the security services to isolate and identify and take down these drones. i still don't understand. i don't quite understand the technicalities behind this and about how that was so difficult. they are not flying very high anyway. and be complete inability to find out who left behind it. this is estelle, the story though it is,

still based on a bunch of hypotheses. but we get this extension of the no—fly zone to three miles i think. that is great news at. it will add to the ability to police that area. if this really is an inside job, to police that area. if this really is an insidejob, you have to to police that area. if this really is an inside job, you have to ask to police that area. if this really is an insidejob, you have to ask if they were already within a no—fly zone then how on earth that they both get access and expertise? you're asking a lot about expertise for people to fly behind watchtowers in areas where you cannot have mobile phones and the restricted ability to intercept an object like that because he might scramble traffic control more generally. it isa traffic control more generally. it is a scary problem. we will have to close this section. no time for desktops. another day. thanks for desktops. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website.

it's all there for you — seven days a week at bbc.co. uk/papers — and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you to broadcaster & author, john kampfner and economics and trade correspondent at the telegraph, anna isaacs. didn't stay tuned. there is plenty more coming up. but from us it is good night. —— do stay tuned. good evening, here's your latest sports news... good evening i'm sarah mulkerrins at the bbc sport centre. it's been a dramatic night for manchester city. . .. they were down to ten men — but pep guardiola's side staged a late comeback to beat shalke 3—2 in the first leg of their champions league last—16 tie. raheem sterling the man to give the visitors the victory in the final minute. our sports correspondent david ornstein watched the action....

the latest estate in manchester city's pursuit of the one trophy they have yet to win. and against shock and they quickly signalled their intent, punishing some ponderous play for sergio aguero. bash against mcgraw. after a check the golston. if you thought the video assistant referee lusk thought to move controversy, think again. at the other end of schalke wanted a penalty for handball. another var check and four minutes later it was given. the home site level. sin city's night would go from bad to worse. a second penalty. on target again. schalke into a shocked lead. that was a brilliant penalty kick. indeed it shot the visitors into life. and although they were reduced to ten men, leroy sane returned to hot his former club. what a story! before raheem sterling provided the final flourish. before raheem sterling provided the finalflourish. a timely before raheem sterling provided the final flourish. a timely boost for city and a give the best european trading ahead of the second leg.

well wednesday's other fixtures wasn't short of drama either... as atletico madrid beatjuventus, one of the favourites for the competition, 2—0 in spain. after having a goal ruled out by var, atletico finally went ahead late in the game. jose maria gimenez pouncing on the loose ball in the box. and then just five minutes later, the home side were in again. this time it was their other centre—back, diego godin, who fired the ball home. there was a big win for struggling millwall in the championship this evening — jed wallace with the only goal as they beat high—flying derby. that win lifts them five points above the relegation spots. alfredo morelos scored four goals for rangers as they thrashed kilmarnock 5—0 in a fifth round scottish cup replay. kilmarnock had daniel bachmann sent off in the first half and andrew halliday got the other rangers goal. england's women s side go up

against india in three one—day internationals beginning on friday. it's the start of a tour of the sub—continent that also includes three t20‘s against india and a series in sri lanka. it's the first time england have played india since beating them in the semi finals of the world t20 in november — but england opener amyjones says the squad aren't being complacent. i guess you can take confidence from previous games. it was a big one. everyone was very confident on the back of that. but playing in india is always challenging and we have never won a series out here. so we we re very never won a series out here. so we were very aware of that. equally, in our practise we have been brilliant. while the girls are feeling pretty confident. looking forward to it. finally, an emotional steve stricker was close to tears on wednesday as he told a news conference what it means to him to be handed the task of regaining golf‘s ryder cup. stricker, who won the event once as a player, will lead the usa team in his home state of wisconsin as the american captain. some people see this and they don't

think i'm very passionate about, or fiery about playing the game of golf and what i do for a living. deep down i am very competitive. we want to lend us more than ever. i'm here to lend us more than ever. i'm here to help in any way i can. i'm very blessed and happy to be here. thank you. that's all your sport for now, good night. time for your latest weather update. as advertised, temperatures are on the up. you might have to wait for the up. you might have to wait for the sunshine. sunnier days are coming up but for tomorrow and expect a good deal of cloud around. regardless of cloud some sunny spells may develop in the afternoon. it is going to be milder. there is a bit of caribbean air coming our way in this feed coming into the uk. and by the weekend a bit of air from africa and the canaries. temperatures are well above normal for that time of year. a good deal of cloud around for the rest of the night. some patchy rain and places. had some close spells towards the southeast of england. replaced the
