of a conservative party that big moment, may be decision time. blithely thinks that that is some it affects calais and other in the european union. kind of strategy for britain elsewhere chancellor philip hammond may be just trying to calm things down a bit this morning, stressing in any way, shape or form. the need for the tory party to remaina the need for the tory party to remain a broad church. as for now, another of the defectors sarah suggestions the tory party has been nobody wants to see the port taken over of dover be in any way diminished, wollaston speculated this morning suggestions the tory party has been ta ken over by suggestions the tory party has been it is a really important port, speculated this morning that over a taken over by the heart brexiteers right, this was mr hamman's right. it is the closest port third of the cabinet could quit if to the continent, but you have to remember just yesterday £200 million of investment announced into tilbury in essex. mrs may while ahead with the deal. ! this was mr hammond was not a that is a great port one of those many expect is amber in its own right. response. “— ! this was mr hammond was not a response. —— by the hard brexiteers look at hull, teesport, they are investing heavily, yes, of course the market can respond and it will rudd. this morning she was asked right. this was some of the people respond to help trade about the defections and said it was go in but the best way to keep trade moving serious. can we get your reaction is through a political settlement. to the defections of the prime minister is right, if your three colleagues? the irish backstop is the one thing sad to lose three good, committed colleagues, getting in the way of getting so we'll see what happens next. who are sympathetic so to some the withdrawal agreement through how serious is this? parliament, then fair enough, it's all serious and we are in concerns who are sympathetic so to some a serious time as we try to reach concerns of the ert but compromises the end of getting the right outcome are necessary for us to move it needs to change. for the united kingdom on leaving forward , the european union so i hope we can are necessary for us to move forward, and compromises are necessary in the national interest. support the prime minister and get so while i respect the views of anna the deal through next week. joanna, what we are sensing thank you very much. here is some positivity in the last and her colleagues, i don't think few weeks, with brexit looming over all of what they have said is the horizon at a rapid rate, that meanwhile, what is happening on the positivity needs to turn into some justified. one of those who might be

campaigning about social mobility opportunity for further thought, i and her people constantly tell me would have to give up the whip, yes. they don't see this as a ofan abuse there was exposure of anik bruce —— of an abuse scandal in boston. it conservative issue. so we absolutely when would you make that decision? now turns out there were repeated because those who have left already have to get back on track becoming a scandals in other states in the party that can reconnect with the united states, also a scandal in calculate that mrs may is already in australia and there might be many effect leading the country do no hopes and aspirations of generations other events we don't know about in deal because she is running the of voters and people in our country clock down to that moment. other events we don't know about in other countries. the pope already deal because she is running the clock down to that momentlj who sibley don't see us like that. i deal because she is running the clock down to that moment. i don't think we are at that point yet created his own commission to am saying we now need to confront investigate child abuse in 2014. because a number of options that essentially that didn't get very that —— who simply don't see us like will crystallise next week when the pamina to have an opportunity to that. it's better rather than being far. he has now called this explain she might try to approach here in two years after an election conference. the american actorjussie smollett — just eat, and its 30 years after a who stars in the tv drama empire — the crisis differently or adjust her has been charged with filing a false police report. position. —— when the prime he claimed that last month he'd been the victim of a racist minister. and opportunities for the landslide victory, cabinet ministers and homophobic assault. house of commons to express their in the last hour, it has been view in the bill put forward by reported that he has now been or ex—cabinet minister circling around the media say we have to arrested in chicago. oliver letwin and yvette cooper. sinead garvan is here, taking all those things together, i learn from this. i think we should learn from this. i think we should learn before but the time is now not think the right, at the moment, i what can you tell us? later. isn't that exactly the same wouldn't have said that that point has been reached. but next week will analysis of heidi allen and anna soubry who yesterday said in terms it isa of the party that doesn't reach out it is a fascinating story. back in be the moment? next week will be a january of this story came out he anymore, it's turned its face said he had been attacked, a very important moment depending on what happens when the prime minister against therefore wouldn't it be a homophobic and racist attack. he

comes back from brussels and what he good deal more comfortable in their said chemicals were poured on him has to say to the house of commons, and that a rope was tied around his but i think what we have to company? i haven't got to that point neck, and the attackers shouted m concentrate on week is to work with where i think the conservative party cannot step up to the plate, i think colleagues in the event of a deal it can. we can see the challenges not being approved by the house of aga, donald trump's phrase of make they may face as a party if, like commons, concentrate with colleagues america great again. there was in trying to make sure that we can labour, we drift off to the extreme. outcry from all of hollywood, this do something about that. quitting labour have become a hard left is dreadful, etc. then there were the tory party is one thing but socialist party that worry many could you foresee a situation where rumours againa people about jeremy corbyn and what you could join this new independent he would do if he gets into number is dreadful, etc. then there were rumours again a couple of weeks later, people were implying that group? i think we are deemed maybe it was staged. so then these ten. we shouldn't fall into that same path. what is happening to slightly in a hypothetical, the whole point about the independent brothers, both of them have worked group is they are mps decided to labour is holding up a mirror to the on empire with him, but also one of conservative party. we have do focus write independently of their parties. that is rather different them isjussie smollett‘s personal from setting up a new political on social mobility, back to trainer. they fled the country after the attack. they came back a week party. so in those circumstances, i business, and frankly i am setting out of messages but you have to later and they were arrested and see myself as a conservative, i have they were helping the police with crack if you extra— make an always said i am conservative, a their investigation, they have not omelette. we need to recognise the been charged with anything, so all challenges we face. we haven't memberof the always said i am conservative, a member of the conservative party i have been for over 40 years, about convincingly won an election in over of that, but now he has been three decades. i am setting out why arrested himself forfiling 45 years. i am not about to i think that's the case and what i think the solution is we come of that, but now he has been arrested himself for filing a false police report, and this has come disappear after you join another together around the issue of social from chicago police, saying that, political party. i want to try to yes, he has been arrested, i think

mobility and opportunity. but we need to grasp that nettle and get on there is a bail hearing later today. make my party act and the national with it. what does theresa may need interest —— off tojoin. that is my but, you know, he did interview to do, then? she needs to find first focus if i were to get to the point straight after the attack, saying he had been forever changed. he denies where i felt my party is no longer a route through on brexit, and not doing that, i would have to resign it. his lawyers have released a just ignoring parliament and the the whip. that would not mean i have statement, saying like any other to go off and join something else. votes were having on things like no system, mr smollett enjoys the do you then disagree with the deal. we have to do that then get presumption of innocence analysis of the defectors that particularly when there has been an onto the bigger challenges that investigation like this one where basically the battle inside the tory britain faces that frankly are there information both true and false has party is lost and the brexiteers have one? i think the battle is whatever route we take in relation been repeatedly leaked. how big a to brexit. and actually i think figure is he, how much interest is still taking place. ithink people want to see a new generation have one? i think the battle is still taking place. i think there there in this? there is probably have one? i think the battle is still taking place. ithink there is an argument, and are not yet sure in of faces in the conservative party fairto my mind how the argument will there in this? there is probably fair to say that not a lot of people talking about this issue of did know about him, empire is quite finally resolve itself. but in any aspiration, opportunity. and frankly a big tv show but he is not the main case, seeing my loyalty to the party star of it, he is a great character which is long—standing, i think this flipping britain on its head in a is something which you need to fight way, turning what many think is a in it, openly gay in the music industry, in the hip—hop world, right through to the end. of course, which is not easy. but he wasn't or each person is going to make a class driven society where ye it is about who you know not what you well known, he wasn't well known, know, then turning it into a place different decision, based on personal circumstances. i want to and there are inferences of may be make clear i admire the courage of why he wanted to get more attention, where there is opportunity for all. my colleagues who have gone and i was he going to be written out of understand exactly why they have in case you're wondering what's the show? empire have strongly chosen to do it, and when you see going on the labour side of things, denied that, they have said he is

some of the abuse they have had to no movement there, we heard from still a massive part of the show, but he is not that well known, but put up with, even from within the jeremy corbyn this morning, not party or people claiming to be part hugely informative i have to say. obviously he is now. yes, and he has of the party, i am good morning. party or people claiming to be part of the party, lam not are you worried about been arrested, so we will keep party or people claiming to be part of the party, i am not surprised that they have come to the decision further defections? watching this space. thank you very they have. i may have been more nice to see you all here, thank you very much for coming. much. fortunate, despite the fact people are you losing control of your mps? the british government has confirmed will vigorously disagree with me. i for the first time that thank you very much for coming. around 100 "white helmets" rescuers nice to see you. and theirfamily members have been have great loyalty to my own are you worried about further re—settled in the uk. they were evacuated from syria association and my own association defections, mr corbyn? with the help of the uk last year. in the first tv interview doubtless has divided views on 0h oh dear. he is actually off to brexit and what i have been doing, with one of the resettled white helmet rescuers, brussels to meet with michel barnier the bbc spoke to a man who has left has maintained a loyal support to me a life of pulling bodies this afternoon. meanwhile one other from collapsed buildings in syria — which is as much as i could ever and is starting to make a new life bit of potential news, the possibly have asked for. in those in the uk with his young family. meaningful vote, the big rate on mrs circumstances, i want to try to find catrin nye met him. may's beale telling micro deal a way through this problem, not to put update a further crisis. so how be next —— on mrs may's deal might translation: working with the white should the party respond? in their actually be next week. we had from helmets was not a newjob for me, it joint resignation letter, the accused mrs may of a "dismal amber rudd in an early—morning was my whole life. when war broke doorstep when she said to back failure" in standing up to the out in syria, kallio, whose name theresa may to get the deal through we've changed, didn't want to help. european research group. how should she respond to. further possible next week. so maybe next week will death fight. he became a white be the big brexit vote. helmet, part of a coordinated group defections? the prime minister has a of rescuers

right. but the european research group won't accept what we can have after two or three days, your comes to this issue. technology and things which nobody stomach will start to cramp up from has been able to give in any where it is eroding away at your granular detail, it still remains insides. the only way you can get our europe correspondent rid of that pain is with really the withdrawal agreement and strong prescription painkillers, or damian grammaticas is in brussels. political declaration are separate documents, they must be voted as one more cut him in. two years on, not very optimistic. is this front but they are separate. there it is charlie is now clean but kept in use likely that the prime minister will among young people is on the rise. not secure the position of head latest figures show in one year of camera talk and are things being replaced with a hard police made more than 700 k to bean behind—the—scenes more optimistic? which is the sort of things we're brexiteers, then all the aspirations seizures, a 27% increase. 141,000 hearing from the government the for a future deal could be moment? things are happening. more people are believed to be using categorically aside and we could be catering, the increase is mainly in no deal territory. whether you can be optimistic about categorically aside and we could be in no dealterritory. thank categorically aside and we could be among 16 to 24—year—olds, and it has them or not is something very in no deal territory. thank you. claimed lives. the 18—year—old different. we knowjean—claude breaking news on what is happening eleanor rowe was working for oxfam juncker is sticking to his same at dublin. we are telling you ata eleanor rowe was working for oxfam at a music festival when she mixed line. yesterday he wasn't predicting it with alcohol. what was she like? a breakthrough, today he is not flights are being suspended, we are now hearing that flights are being optimistic, in fact he said before resumed. it was a brief interlude, she was extraordinary, she was full that in that clip he said he had of life, she was drinking some they say they apologise for any brexit fatigue because every time lager, and then they took care to inconvenience. they say the safety men and it was quite a long line, i of passengers is always the key the british parliament met, they we re the british parliament met, they were voting against what is put priority. flights resumed at dublin believe, of some rather strong before it. there are meetings going stuff, and she laid down and never airport. we will have the latest on all of the day's main news coming up

on, discussions, happening today, the leader of the positionjeremy woke up. ketamine was reclassified corbyn is due and a few minutes to on the bbc news channel, right now asa woke up. ketamine was reclassified as a class b drug in 2014. it can we say goodbye to viewers on bbc meet michel barnier. after that, the two. affect the memory, seriously damage the president of the european the bladder and even cause commission jean—claude juncker has once again warned the uk could be incontinence. i wanted to attorney—general and the brexit investigate just how easy it is to set to leave the eu without a deal. meet mr barnier —— brexit secretary buy on the internet, so i set up an following his meeting with theresa may yesterday, mrjuncker said he was ‘not very anonymous account on the dark web, optimistic‘ about britain's chance will meet mr barnier. the belief is of securing a brexit deal, placed an order for £10, anonymous account on the dark web, placed an orderfor £10, and it they will be bringing some new and if no deal were to happen it arrived, no questions asked. lab wording to put on the table, not to test showed i had been sent ketamine would have ‘terrible economic and social consequences' for both parties. and mdma or ecstasy presumably is a do with changing that backstop, but some sort of additional free sample. such a lack of clarification wording that could go education for young people of what if a no deal would happen, into the brexit documents, the and i can't exclude this, they are taking, mixing with alcohol isa agreement documents and the this will have terrible economic they are taking, mixing with alcohol is a huge one with care to men, that political side of things. the and social consequences both is a huge one with care to men, that is one of the most dangerous things in britain and on the continent. crucial thing there is first whether that young people can possibly do the eu would agree. it seems that it with ketamine as well. anyone in and so my efforts are oriented in may be unlikely because if what has possession of the drug may face up a way that the worst can be avoided. been talked about is they are asking to 14 years in prison. charlie was but i'm not very optimistic when it for a one—year break or one—year lucky. he is now working to raise awareness but for others the mechanism with one year's noticed comes to this issue. consequences can be devastating. the uk can quit the irish backstop, lauren moss, bbc news. thatis the uk can quit the irish backstop, the headlines on bbc news... that is unlikely to be acceptable to our europe correspondent damian grammaticas told me why braced for further resignations — the eu side. even if they do find a jean claude—juncker‘s position three former conservative mps who've quit the party say others are also form of words, will that be considering walking out.

no breakthrough yet in brussels — a cce pta ble form of words, will that be acceptable back in london? will it be enough of the attorney—general to on brexit hasn't changed. the head of the european commission says he's "not very optimistic" change the legal opinion and say he about the chances of securing a brexit deal. now doesn't think the uk is bound we knowjean—claude juncker is sticking to his same line. yesterday he wasn't predicting the government received £15 billion more indefinitely into these backstop a breakthrough, today than it spent last month. arrangements and therefore be enough he is not optimistic, it's the biggest january surplus on record, thanks to higher tax receipts. in parliament again? a difficult in fact he said before that in that question. yes, things are going on, ha rd to clip he said he had brexit question. yes, things are going on, hard to see whether that will amount to enough. just briefly, what are fatigue because every time the sort of deadlines that lie the british parliament ahead. the government is absolutely saying at the moment it is not going met, it was voting the formation of the new independent group, made up of both labour to seek an extension to article 50. against whatever was put before it. there are meetings going on, and conservative politicians, has unsettled westminster in the last few days. there is a lot of pressure on the discussions, happening today, government to do exactly that. where the leader of the opposition it to go down that path, when would jeremy corbyn is due and a few it to go down that path, when would it has to be done by? the thinking minutes to meet michel barnier. but how do the constituents of those who have defected feel? tim muffett has been is it could happen very quickly if to south cambridgeshire — it was requested. but it will have represented by heidi allen — who until yesterday, was a conservative. after that, the attorney—general to be request coming from london and and the brexit secretary will meet mr barnier shepreth in south cambridgeshire. theresa may, then the question would and that is the key one. be what sort of processes, it was mentioned almost 1,000 years ago in the domesday book. procedures, parliamentary approval the belief is they will be there has been a pub on this site and cabinet approval woodsy have to bringing some new wording go through to that request? ! would to put on the table, not to do with changing that since the 17th century. backstop, but some sort so has local mp heidi allen made she have to go through. it would of additional clarification wording an historical blunder

that could go into the brexit or helped shape the future have to be accepted here and met documents, the agreement documents with a response from the other 27 and the political side of things. of british politics? when the history books look back, country. that can happen quickly but hopefully this will be the beginning the question all along, has been of people standing up for what they believe in and not but the crucial thing there is first what is the uk asking for and why? whether the eu would agree. letting the brexiteers the belief is they are inclined to it seems that it may be unlikely because if what has been talked run the tory party. be willing to grant an extension but about is they are asking wa nt to be willing to grant an extension but want to see very clear reasons and i think if we are going to make any for a one—year break or one—year changes, which ever way an objective for what that time would be useful. it could happen mechanism with one year's notice you want to go, it would probably be the uk can quit this irish backstop, very fast but the key deadline, 29th that is unlikely to be better to do that from within. acceptable to the eu side. even if they do find a form it's very sad, what is happening march, exit day, when things will of words, will that be in the government at the moment. happen, the uk will leave if nothing acceptable back in london? everything seems to be very mixed up and nobody seems to know will it be enough for what they are doing really. else changes before that point. the the attorney—general to change people here did vote the legal opinion and say he now for a conservative mp and have not other minor deadline before that, a doesn't think the uk is bound got now a conservative mp. week before the end of the preceding indefinitely into these backstop what do you think of that? arrangements and therefore be enough it may be that the ideas that people in parliament again? week, the eu leaders, the eu summit voted for aren't the same anymore. a difficult question. they have changed for her and for yes, things are going on, the people that voted her in. here in brussels where the leaders hard to see whether that the south cambridgeshire including theresa may will gather. will amount to enough. constituency was created in 1997 one week ahead of brexit day, and until yesterday has everybody will be here in brussels, uk and irish retailers have issued that could be a crucial point to a fresh warning that tariffs on food always been conservative. look at. thank you. entering the uk could increase by more than 40% in the event we have breaking news. christopher of a no—deal brexit. at the teacake tearoom, mandy thornton has a lot to digest. davies, conservative mp for brecon if i am honest, when i analyse it,

him and then hear it. ! against misogyny. the male misogynist acts are examined for nuance and defended as traits of difficult artists. whilst women and those who call them out are treated as hysterics who don't understand art. he was quoting a journalist but how important was it for a man to be speaking like that on the stage? hugely important. the context of that speech was music is yet to have its me to moment. there hasn't been a figure of notoriety like harvey weinstein within music that has been felt like this movement where it hasn't spread through music to the same degree as spread through other forms of popular culture. we have waited for the moment for music. last week, ryan adams was accused, a

hugely successful songwriter, accused in the new york times of manipulation of a number of women, one of whom were supporting at the times of the interaction with adams, according to the allegation. that was the backdrop and context in which matt healy gave this speech. personally, i think it's important because misogyny needs silence to exist to spread. it needs complacency, turning the other cheek, thinking it's embarrassing or awkward. to truly combat the ingrained misogyny that ryan adams has allegedly been able —— has allowed people like ryan evans to allegedly commit some act and yet have decorated careers —— ryan adams. you need people calling it out, not just adams. you need people calling it out, notjust women, it's on men as well and as a man it can be tough

sometimes knowing how to be an ally in that fight. and seeing matt healy up in that fight. and seeing matt healy up on that stage last night, it led the way, it's up to everyone to call this out, it's up to everyone to say everything and not pass unnoticed when you see misogynistic acts. for me it was really important and a message that obviously had huge resonance within the music industry but i think probably it's a message that carries weight in any industry and any walk of life. rotating back to the awards last night, specifically p! nk rotating back to the awards last night, specifically p!nk getting the outstanding award, —— outstanding achievement award, she said it is the best humble break of the date, to be recognised alongside david bowie and elton john. to be recognised alongside david bowie and eltonjohn. what do you think? i think a lot of people were underwhelmed by her getting this, being put alongside such legendary

acts. i do think she has had a career that is, that has been underrated, and it kind of goes unnoticed how many pop artists today probably wouldn't be doing what they are today without having brought her records 20 years ago or however long ago it is now. as her cultural releva ncy ago it is now. as her cultural relevancy now is good today in 2019? probably not. did that performance carry the same sense of the brits existing in the zeitgeist as stormzy did last year when he closed last yea r‘s did last year when he closed last year's ceremony? i'm not sure. dua lipa has been speaking about being a massive fan, so there we go. thank you very much. if you want to see more of the performances, you can see them online. now the weather

with mel coles. the mild theme continues, some spots could hit 17 celsius today as we continue to draw up celsius today as we continue to draw up this mild air on a south—westerly breeze. that has been quite cloudy and drizzly this afternoon, which had brightened up, a bit more clout for southern scotland, east anglia and the south and a noticeable breeze for northern ireland and scotland. around the moray firth we could see highs of 17 celsius. as we head into this evening a fine end to the day, increasing amounts of cloud for northern ireland and western scotland, where it will remain quite blustery, otherwise we could see mist and fog for big through the midlands, through the south—east and southern england. temperatures not falling away too far. more clout for northern ireland and western scotla nd northern ireland and western scotland with outbreaks of patchy rain edging in to north—east scotland, otherwise lengthy spells

of hazy sunshine and staying mild. hello this is bbc newsroom live. sport now, here's tanya. jack nowell has been named on the right wing for england's six nations clash with wales after chris ashton was ruled out with a calf injury. he excelled during the opening weekend win over defending champions ireland before making way for ashton. brad shields will make his tournament debut with ben moon and ellis george also starting in cardiff. peter horne will start at fly—half for scotland in one of four changes made by gregor townsend as they aim for theirfirst win in france for twenty years. he replaces finn russell who sustained a concussion playing for his club. blair kinghorn, nick grigg and magnus bradbury also come into the starting fifteen.

england's cricketers showed why they're favourites for this summer's world cup, with a magnificent victory in the first one day international against west indies in barbados. the hosts had set an imposing total, thanks largely to chris gayle's brilliant innings of 135. but centuries from jason roy and joe root helped england towards their highest ever successful run chase. jos buttler eventually hitting the winning runs to see england go past that target of 360 and go 1 up in the 5 match series. eleven—time women's world champion reanne evans will make history when she becomes one of two female players to compete on television in the final stages of a world ranking event in the uk. evans is preparing to play jimmy white at the snooker shoot out this evening, while emma parker takes on india's laxman rawat tomorrow. timing is everything in the event, with a limit of 15 seconds allowed per shot in the one—frame matches.

i have just got to hope that the nerves calmed me down a bit and don't take over my playing, but knowingjimmy, don't take over my playing, but knowing jimmy, i hope don't take over my playing, but knowingjimmy, i hope it will stand me in good stead, make me feel a bit more comfortable on the table, and it is not my traditional snooker, so it is not my traditional snooker, so it will be really quiet and a lot harder to concentrate but we will see what happens. i'm really looking forward to it. breakdancing has been proposed for the 2024 olympic games in paris. it was included in last years youth olympic games but there were no british competitors in what was an invitation event. team gb says they welcome new sports and will work with the relevant bodies to develop our relationships at the appropriate time. surfing, climbing and skateboarding, which all debut in next years games in toyko, have also been put forward for inclusion. with the paris games organisers only proposing four sports to the ioc, it means that squash, karate and chess are among those that

will not have the chance to compete. it's the final day of formula 1 testing and lewis hamilton has recorded the fastest time so far. —— daniel ricciardo is the fastest so far. you can find more on that and all those stories on the bbc sport website. with 36 days to go before brexit — radio 1's newsbeat is in dover throught the day. it s europe s busiest port and they're going to be hearing from local businesses that rely on it — and discuss what exactly will happen when the uk leaves the eu. let's cross live to dover — and join newsbeat‘s politics editorjim connolly. hi there. welcome to dover, the busiest port in the country. give you a sense of scale, a fifth of the goods that come into the country

coming through there, £122 billion a year. if you were to line up all the lorries that come through here every single day, they would go back from here all the way back to stansted airport, so any little nook or cranny that gets interference in in the process of how you get stuff through this port could cause big problems, not only for the local area, traffic jams on problems, not only for the local area, trafficjams on the road, but also for the economy generally here in kent but the wider uk economy, and how we get lots of goods that we rely on to our shops and ultimately into our houses. we have been chatting to a few people here, and we arejoined by chatting to a few people here, and we are joined by another one, jonathan, from the uk chamber of shipping. we have been chatting to them over at the port of dover. they say to us, look, they are quite relaxed because they are getting quite good information from the uk government. they are not getting the greatest information from over there in france, is that something new is

an organisation is feeling as well? that's absolutely right, the uk government have been much better at planning their span many people have given them credit for. the problem has been from politicians both in parliament here and on the european union side. you speak to politicians in calaisjust 20 miles union side. you speak to politicians in calais just 20 miles away, they will tell you something very different to the politicians in paris or brussels. if you think those political tensions are bad now, imagine ifa no those political tensions are bad now, imagine if a no deal scenario comes along. it is why the prime minister is right to try to reopen parts of the withdrawal agreement so we can get the political settlement now and try to move on. 2.5 million trucks passed through here last year, if anything gets in the way a bit, say a disorderly brexit happens, the doomsday brexit some people talk about, if that happens, what is going to happen to this port, and also the local area? it is going to be chaos on the roads around here, isn't it, if we don't leave with a deal in place? lorries like this one behind us now, at the

moment it can leave a factory onto the motorway, come a port, onto a ship, out the other side, with no checks or paperwork whatsoever. as soon as soon as you start adding any friction into that process you might have problems. i have always believed that five seconds, ten seconds here and there to scan a bar code on a lorry is not going to make that much difference, anything more than that, you will have substantial problems. it doesn't just affect us, it affects calais and other comparable ports here and in the europe macro. —— in the european union. nobody wants to see the port of dover be in any way diminished, it isa of dover be in any way diminished, it is a really important port, it is the closest port to the continent, but you have to rememberjust yesterday £200 million of investment announced into tilbury in essex. that is a great port in its own right. look at hull, teesport, they are investing heavily, yes of course

the market can respond and it will respond to help trade go in but the best way to keep trade moving is through a political settlement. the prime minister is right, if the irish backstop is the one thing getting in the way of getting the withdrawal agreement through parliament, then fair enough, it needs to change. joanna, what we are sensing some positivity in the last few weeks, with brexit looming over the horizon at a rapid rate, that positivity needs to turn into some kind of deal, i suppose. thank you very much,jim. the thought of a no deal brexit throws up many anxieties, and with supermarkets warning there could be temporary food shortages, it's making people think about stockpiling goods. businesses have been doing just that in preparation, but what about ordinary shoppers? are they filling up their cupboards? our consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith has been speaking to people in west yorkshire to find out what they're doing.

it's rehearsal night, and with a concert just around the it's rehearsal night, and with a concertjust around the corner, the altogether now wire in baildon aren't holding back. a group with a big sound. and no one here holds back when it comes to their opinions, either. when you're thinking ahead to the start of april, will you be doing anything differently? i am going to make sure my freezer is full. that's not funny, it's a very good plan. stuff like loo rolls come you don't want to be running out of loo rolls, so just to make sure your basic stuff is in. yes, and medicines, ithink. your basic at—home medicines, we just need to make sure we have all got them in. she has made me think about the medicine thing. whether or not to stock up has caused divisions in some families too. my wife is

trying to stockpile, but i keep eating it. what kind of things is she buying? things with a long shelf life, tins of peas, but i think we will always have something in. i think the mangetout in the middle of winter might go by the wayside but for a short time we will see. what is driving your wife? a fear of things not being available. i don't think she is driven, she'sjust things not being available. i don't think she is driven, she's just a very cautious person, and rightly so, but i'm possibly less cautious, maybe i'm a fool, i don't know. jane has already begun stocking up on her essentials. fresh produce i could get in yorkshire, there won't be a problem with that, we have fantastic farms and fisheries and things, it is things i can't get from yorkshire that i have now started stocking up on, so coffee for my coffee machine, i have been and bought quite a lot and popped it in my garage, and chocolate as well. when i get home

from work, i like my coffee and chocolate. no one's going bananas in the aisles here, and plenty of people have done nothing at all, but some have decided that airing on the side of caution means having a full freezer, some xt —— empty tins or a never ending supply of coffee. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first the headlines on bbc news... braced for further resignations — three former conservative mps who've quit the party say others are also considering walking out. no breakthrough yet in brussels — the head of the european commission says he's "not very optimistic" about the chances of securing a brexit deal. and an unprecedented summit on the vatican on the sexual abuse scandals

in the catholic church. the pope say those who have suffered expect concrete measures. i'm victoria fritz in the business news. the chancellor s in the money — for now. public sector finances registered their biggest surplus on record injanuary ofjust under £15 billion pounds. on record in january ofjust under £15 billion. barclays sets aside £150 million for the cost of brexit — as the boss assures investors that the bank remains committed to the uk and urges them to reject the advances of the activist investor ed bramson. centrica, which owns british gas, warns it will struggle to meet cash flow targets this year as it comes under pressure from a cap on energy prices in the uk. for most of us, we leave the month of january feeling impoverished after christmas, run—down & eager to leave the month behind. not so the treasury.

january is always a bumper month for tax take because of corporate tax receipts and self—assessment income. but this time — the public coffers runneth over. the government received almost £15 billion more in revenue than it spent during the month. that's the biggest positive balance since 1993. it means borrowing was a little over £21 billion — the lowest for 17 years. britain's fiscal watchdog, the office for budget responsibility, had forecast that full year borrowing would come in at about £25 billion. so that £21 billion number means the government is, at least for the moment, coming in under budget. good news for the chancellor as he gets his calculator out to do the sums for the spring statement next month. let's talk to liz matins an economist at hsbc. how's this particular rabbit sprung out of the hat?

it isa it is a good result here for the chancellor this morning, and i think it is really reflecting strong revenue growth. revenue growth over the first ten months of this fiscal year was about 5%, and that compares to spending growth of only around 296. to spending growth of only around 2%. so clearly that works in the chancellor's faber, borrowing comes down, but i do think we need to be a little bit careful about celebrating these numbers because of course the self—assessed tax revenues in particular refer to the income generated a year previously. if you did your self assessment in january of this year, you were referring to your company income in the previous yea rs. your company income in the previous years. it is good news, revenue growth seems to be strong and borrowing is down but that doesn't tell us too much about what revenues are actually doing at the current moment. let's talk about the current moment. on march 13, the treasury's first update of the year on the country's economic health. what sort of shape is the country in?

clearly, the improvement continues. if you think the budget deficit looked around 10% of gdp in the crisis, it is now well below 2% of gdp. it was good news in october and it may be given the size of this january surplus they will be even more good news in the coming update in march. so positive. in an unscheduled announcement this week — ratings agrency fitch has put the uk's credit rating on negative watch — do you share their concerns? i think there are clearly concerns around uncertainty in the uk economy at the moment. there is political uncertainty, there has been a slowdown in growth, particularly in the final quarter of last year. but generally speaking if there are concerns it is not at this point around the public finances, because as we have seen, that is one area where so far we have actually seen

improvement. thank you for your time. some of the other business stories, what is going on here! who knows. we are back up and running. standard chartered bank is putting aside £690m for potential fines involving investigations in britain and the us. the money will cover separate investigations into breaches of us sanctions and foreign exchange trading issues. it also covers a fine ofjust over £100 million from the uk's financial conduct authority related to financial crime controls. city centres are in danger of becoming ghost towns, as shopping habits change, a committee of mps has warned. they says it needs to "level the playing field" for high street retailers, possibly by raising taxes on online giants such as amazon. the mps also called for lower business rates and more regeneration in town centres. the food giant nestle and several

other big companies have pulled their adverts from youtube following claims they appeared next to offensive content. the firm, which shares a parent company with google, has been criticised for not removing offensive content fast enough in the past. the ftse 100 has been weighed down on this morning by a clutch of disappointing results for some of the market s biggest companies. centrica, which owns british gas, has warned it will struggle to meet cash flow targets this year. elsewhere, shares in online estate agency purplebricks fell by more if than 30% after it said it was parting company with the bosses of its uk and us businesses and warned revenues would be lower this year. that's all the business news. raf and us air force planes will perform a fly—past above a park in sheffield tomorrow,

where an american bomber crashed during the second world war, killing all ten men on board. a young boy called tony foulds saw the plane come down that day in 1944 and has spent the last 75 years tending to the memorial in the park. john maguire has the story. on the 22nd of february 1944, the crew of the mi amigo took off for a bombing raid over northern denmark. it was to be their last flight. the aircraft crashed into endcliffe park in sheffield, having deliberately avoided nearby houses. very few of the b—17 flying fortresses remain. here at the american air museum, part of the imperial war museum in duxford, you can walk under the wings of the iconic bomber. and for megan leo, a relative of one of the crew, imagine what flying on board must have been like. he was my age when he would have been in there, and when he died. and just seeing all that,

i can't even imagine. there aren't words for it, really. melchor hernandez was the one who gave the mi amigo, "my friend" in spanish, its nickname. hisjob on board as the bombardier would have meant him sitting here at the very nose of the plane. i can't even imagine sitting in that cramped space with nine other men whose lives are so connected to mine. and just remembering the names, i think, and knowing the ten and knowing the mi amigo and having that forever etched in our hearts and in our memories. the aircraft were popular with their crews who lived, flew and fought together, a band of brothers. you're in there with ten guys who you're flying with all the time, and you'll be living with them, so yes, the camaraderie, and getting through mission after mission after mission, you know, you build up that friendship and that... obviously, you look

out for each other. and those strong bonds of camaraderie remain among modern day aircrews. this is raf lakenheath, the home of the b—15 strike eagle jets that will form the main body of tomorrow's fly—past. these crews will have flown hundreds of missions, both in training and in combat, but this memorial flight over sheffield is something very different, something very special. and one aircraft will leave the formation as it flies over, the symbolic missing man. it is a very rare honour, and it's only bestowed on air crew that have passed and for special events like this, and again, when this got brought forward, it's a special way for all of us to honour all those aircrew, both american and in the raf, that passed. so for us, this is not only a special way for us to honour the fallen mi amigo aircrew, but also all the aircrew that have passed leading up to those events. we love the opportunity to take the opportunity to honour the crew of the mi amigo, and the guys that came before us

and were able to pave the way for us is a huge honour. 75 years ago, ten young men gave their lives serving their country and ours. the fly—past aircraft will carry their names as they are commemorated by their present—day counterparts, by their families and by thousands of thankful strangers. lest we forget. john maguire, bbc news, at raf lakenheath in suffolk. there will be full coverage of that fly— past there will be full coverage of that fly—past tomorrow, remembering those ten men who lost their lives. now it's time for a look at the weather. mel cole says the details. over the next day or so we will really see those temperatures given an extra boost, and of course it is mild already, but we will drag up this waft of slightly milder air from the south—west. quite a lot of cloud associated with it through this morning but already we are starting to see some decent breaks from the

cloud, allowing bright, even sunny intervals, and that will continue to be the trend as we have through the afternoon. it remains mild and most of us getting to see some sunshine. you can see from the satellite image the extent of the cloud from earlier on this morning, already a few holes getting punched into it, that is where we are seeing the sunshine at the moment. that will continue to develop as we head through the afternoon. quite a noticeable breeze for northern ireland, up into north—west scotland, but elsewhere the south—westerly winds are fairly light. we have a little bit more cloud for southern scotland and down to the far south—east, but today really is about the temperatures. around the moray firth we could hit highs of around 17 celsius, and a similar story for north—east wales. this evening, we start to the cloud increase over northern ireland and north—west scotland as this cold weather front starts to make its way inroads. clear skies elsewhere, we could see some low cloud, mist and fog, particularly through the

midlands, down toward southern england, that south—east and east anglia, which could be dense in places, temperatures ranging between three and nine celsius. three celsius for north—east england. not a particularly cold start to friday morning. we are under a ridge of high pressure, this weatherfront will try to make inroads, but as it bumps into that ridge of high pressure it will tend to fizzle out as we go through the day, but it will introduce more cloud for northern ireland and north—west scotland, still blustery here, and that fog will be dense in places, it will take to clear. that should do eventually and then most of us getting to see lengthy spells of sunshine, although it will turn a little hazy as we head through the afternoon. temperatures more or less in line with today's highs, north devon and north—east england the favoured spots for the best of the temperatures. as we head into the weekend, we still have a ridge of high pressure and this weather front will try to push in, and it does look as if it will bring a spell of

rain to northern ireland and north—west scotland on saturday. away from that though, particularly out of the east, a greater chance of seeing some sunshine and still mild, temperatures perhaps a little bit down on today and tomorrow but still mild.
