could north korea's next generation hello, this is bbc news. i'm sharanjit leyl in hanoi, learn a similar lesson? where the scene is set laura bicker, bbc news, hanoi. we will be taking a look at tomorrow for the second round of historic but still illegal — now it's time for the weather talks between the leaders of the us morning's papers in a moment. it's the only way some families earn with tomasz schafernaker. first the headlines: and north korea. money for food, and she's not sure kim jong—un is serious 00:00:09,228 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 about economic reform. we did it yesterday and we did it the prime minister has told mps that donald trump and kim jong—un if her brexit deal is rejected, have both arrived here again today. we broke the all—time in the vietnamese capital. they will get an opportunity to vote they will meet for dinner this on ruling out a no—deal brexit, evening ahead of the full february temperature record. 21.2 summit on thursday. and possibly delaying brexit itself. degrees at kew gardens today. that the government releases an internal briefing paper on the impact but the big question remains — is just of a no—deal brexit, will trump—meets—kim take two degrees at kew gardens today. that isjust a fraction warning of significant effects degrees at kew gardens today. that is just a fraction over 70 fahrenheit, also the first time we on cross—border trade, tariffs, produce any more tangible results than the leaders' first have reached 70 fahrenheit in winter meeting in singapore? and the northern ireland economy. months. so same pattern for emergency crews attend a huge i'm kasia madera in london. yesterday, the warm air across many moorland fire which has broken out also in the programme: western parts of europe, extending on saddleworth moor, all the way into the arctic regions on the outskirts of huddersfield, in west yorkshire. as well. you can see iceland fare a storm gathering around donald with this pattern in the jet stream. trump's former fixer. reports the jet stream pattern will change, india says it has conducted air—strikes in pakistan—administered suggest that michael cohen may use a look at the animation as the days go kashmir, targetting a militant group it says killed a0 indian soldiers by there. you can see thatjetstream hearing on capitol hill to accuse in a suicide attack a fortnight ago. making a beeline right for us. look the president of criminal conduct while in at those cooler colours sweeping him and indicating that cooler north plans to change the rules on organ donation in england are approved by parliament. atla ntic and indicating that cooler north atlantic air. so the temperatures from next year there will tumble over the coming days and will be an opt—out system, not an opt—in one. the weekends are looking much cooler than what we have now. early on
11:31 pm
wednesday morning, a few degrees above freezing in most major towns and cities, and then some mist and fog probably forming in the early morning across some southern fog probably forming in the early morning across some southern areas. basically it is copycat conditions tomorrow, lots of sunshine around. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be it will not be quite as warm, we bringing us tomorrow. will not have the dizzy heights of 21 degrees but i think 16 to 18 with me are caroline wheeler, deputy political editor of the sunday times, and anand menon, director of uk celsius. in that sunshine, it is in a changing europe. still going to feel absolutely many of tomorrow's front fabulous. thursday a big change, pages are already in. the guardian leads with a bleak warning from government that a no—deal brexit could weaken the uk economy by 9% and cause food prices to rise. thatis fabulous. thursday a big change, that is when the weather is really going to change nationwide, maybe delaying brexit is a plot to stop it some brightness in scotland, but further south, wales, north—west — that is according to the daily england, the midlands, look at those telegraph. temperatures, 11 to 13, still above the average for the time of year. the paper reports on rebel ministers friday and the weekend, i showed you forcing a vote to block no—deal. thatjetstream friday and the weekend, i showed you that jetstream earlier on, friday and the weekend, i showed you thatjetstream earlier on, that will the times reports on a cabinet war, spin up this weather systems, low as rebel ministers are accused pressure, the weather fronts of sabotaging talks with the eu spin up this weather systems, low pressure, the weatherfronts heading in our direction. 0ne pressure, the weatherfronts heading in our direction. one is approaching after they forced the prime minister ireland on friday. at this stage, to give mps the chance not too bad across the country. temporarily brighter weather but in to delay brexit. see it is already a lot cooler. 11 0n the front of the financial times,
11:32 pm
to 13 degrees those sorts of values, theresa may concedes the government and businesses are woefully and as we head into the weekend it unprepared for no—deal, as she admits there might be a short really is all change, low pressure brexit delay if mps fail to back sweeps in and this is the pattern a revised deal next month. for saturday itself. the low pressure swings in and brings us strong winds, gale force winds the same story is splashed expected across parts of northern across the independent, ireland, scotland, these western as it leads with the prime minister coasts, all of us will catch at handing over power to parliament to delay brexit, in an attempt least a bit of rain and it is going to escape mass ministerial resignations. to feel pretty nippy in that wind, at least compared to what we have just got used to. that's it from me, theresa meerkat is the headline in the metro. it reports on may being accused goodbye. of suffering a "maybot malfunction" after insisting the solution to brexit is simple. now do your duty — theresa may demands mps back her deal and end the brexit paralysis, on the daily mail. lots of brexit, brexit this, brexit that. the front page of the
11:33 pm
telegraph, delaying brexit is a plot to stop it. it has been the fear of a lot of members of the erg, and a few labour mps as well who represent constituencies who voted overwhelmingly to leave. they feel they need to represent those people who voted them in, and this they believe is all a big plot. yes, i mean, you heara believe is all a big plot. yes, i mean, you hear a lot about language about the delay being the thin end of the remain wedge, that once the date of 29 march has been overshot, anything is possible, the remainers will be out in force and you run the risk of a referendum, there is a lot of talk along those lines among brexiteers, and jacob rees—mogg was also saying that the real winners of any delay would be the far right and tommy robinson would be the ultimate beneficiary of this. one interesting aspect that i think this speaks to is that at the end of may there are
11:34 pm
european parliament elections, and if the delay to brexit takes us past that date, there are some people of the european union who say if you area the european union who say if you are a member state you are bound by law to have those elections. those will be very strange elections, if we are on the way out and yet we still hold national elections for the eu parliament in this country, and the results could be all over the place. and i am sure that will go all the way to the european court ofjustice as to the validity of us having to take part in those elections. but the selection that we are perhaps inching closer to the possibility of a second referendum, certainly as far as labour is concerned, is there the wheel in parliament for that, if that came to a vote? —— will. parliament for that, if that came to a vote? -- will. i think this has been kind of an endgame for the labour leadership, they really don't wa nt labour leadership, they really don't want a second referendum. they are concerned about how that will make their party look, especially in those leave supporting areas in the north of england break, it represented why people like caroline
11:35 pm
flint, et cetera, et cetera. but keir starmer and john mcdonnell, the shadow chancellor, have done an excellent job of pushing shadow chancellor, have done an excellentjob of pushing the party closer to that final outcome, and we have seen this week that basically the labor party have said that they will... i say they the labor party have said that they will. .. i say they will the labor party have said that they will... i say they will back the labor party have said that they will. .. i say they will back that position, we don't ultimately know what that position is, because while they are talking about the second referendum in those terms, we don't actually know what that would look like in the end. there has been some suggestion by emily thornbury it would include remain on the order paper, but it is still a position when we wonder if it is slightly cynically put together, because actually it speaks to the membership, but at the same time the question is whether there is a wheel in parliament to do it. and i am not sure that there is, in the same way that we have talked for a long time about whether or not the brexiteers could actually achieve an ideal brexit —— will. i think there would not be a majority for that in parliament. this could turn out to
11:36 pm
bea parliament. this could turn out to be a really clever strategy and it is not inconceivable thatjeremy corbyn comes out of this looking like a hand he has supported a referendum but on the other hand he has not blocked brexit. but they have also said that they are furious, that it has taken so long, especially the younger members. there has been this conflict with momentum. if you look at what has been going on online and on social media, it strikes me that lots of those younger members want to see the party moved into much more of a pro—european style of party, and obviously that really doesn't fit with the mould thatjeremy corbyn has struck, a party we had in the past. what strikes me is that both theresa may and jeremy corbyn, via the talk of the referendum, have finally figured out ways towards party management, very late in the game. partly as a result of the
11:37 pm
splits we saw last week, both of them are shifting in response to the dangerous cracks appearing. at the splits. mac —— but the splits are still appearing. rebel ministers accused of sabotaging eu talks. so i was saying this before we came on air, this is very similar to the story i wrote on sunday in the sunday times. we were getting echoes of this even before she made this announcement, that they felt very strongly that if you took no deal of the table you are undermining the prime minister's negotiating, and what i find quite amusing about this is you have liz truss talking about a kamikaze action —— liz truss. the quotes a kamikaze action —— liz truss. the q u otes we a kamikaze action —— liz truss. the quotes we were getting were things like astonishing disloyalty, amber road is the leader of the brexit
11:38 pm
bandwagon, all the sorts of things —— amber rudd. it belies the split between the brexiteers and remainers, the remainers want to see no deal taken off the table, they thought it was extremely damaging, especially from clark's position, with irreversible decisions being made in the car industry and they needed to address that. of course, obviously the brexiteers are very upset about what has happened, and there are reports of andrea lets them being close to tears in cabinet meetings today —— leadsom. we have had other members suggesting this will hurt our negotiating hand with europe as if we take the threat of no deal of the table, why should they give us anything in terms of concessions? i suppose what the remainers in the cabinet and in government in general have made clear is that they have a bit of muscle. yes, absolutely. and they
11:39 pm
can negotiate from a relative position of strength as well, in the same way the erg have been for the last year or so. i think that is absolutely the case, over the last few weeks people have been saying are these people going to put up or shut up, and they have taken it to the prime minister. 0n the one hand she has achieved her short—term objective, because it looks like it is not moving forward tomorrow. so that looks like a success. now one of the big questions for two weeks' time is that if she loses the meaningful vote, does she with her mps meaningful vote, does she with her mp5 on the two successive days when they are voting about no deal? that isa they are voting about no deal? that is a significant decision for the prime minister if she gets to that stage because she has to play her hands. it is interesting the treatment in the papers, the daily mail being a bit of a cheerleader of the remainers, as well, the complete and utter antithesis of how the paper used to be. they have been the ones with amber and richard harrington all arguing this case and even that hasn't stopped the prime
11:40 pm
minister choosing that paper to be the one she goes to today to make her point. 0k, the one she goes to today to make her point. ok, the deal goes down on the 12th. what would she want? what would be the best outcome of that second vote on no deal, for her? well, i don't think she has a choice. i think there is a massive parliamentary majority which will vote against no deal as an outcome. and the next thing will be the delay. so the next is on the delay. 0k. she would want a delay, right? then she could at least try and go away and come back with something else. i think she will always argue that she will be led towards a delay kicking and screaming. i think that is her message. she has to keep saying that publicly. the other thing we haven't factored into any of this, which is a kind of cu rve ball, of this, which is a kind of curveball, is that neither side can come up with a majority and some of the brexiteers were saying this again to me today. well, if it gets to that point she will have to call
11:41 pm
a general election. we can't get to that point where we have either a delay, which business does in be you wa nt delay, which business does in be you want a delay, especially a short delay, in some ways it is better to have a longer delay because planning for a short—term delay is going to be difficult. that is another cu rve ball you be difficult. that is another curveball you could throw into it, although all of the party machinery will tell us ultimately she doesn't wa nt will tell us ultimately she doesn't want a second referendum, she doesn't want a general election, and she doesn't want a delay. but if all of those things are on the table because everything else has been taken off the table, then where does she end up landing with the three least worst option is? two and of course, ironically, even if the deal passes on the 12th she is going to have to go back for a delay, because there is this massive piece of legislation in the withdrawal bill. is that inevitable? i would say almost inevitable, it will take a minimum of 3— four weeks to get that through parliament, and if the withdrawal agreement is being agreed on the 12th there is to be not enough time. and much better to extended after she has got the deal. they know it is definitely going to
11:42 pm
be... yes. and it is technical. yes, it is procedural, isn't it? the story is another brexit one in the express. this is the prime minister trying to be funny. trying to crack a joke and fellow bit flat. it was quite a cringe in the sense that she started the lion got interrupted and stop, rewound to the start again and the delivery was somewhat lacking, rather limp delivery of the word "simples". she was trying to do the meerkat advertisement. it fell flat. it speaks, caroline, to this lack of agility that she has, she is not nimble on her feet when agility that she has, she is not nimble on herfeet when it agility that she has, she is not nimble on her feet when it comes to the dance floor. she has nifty shoes. there is a sense that she is
11:43 pm
a bit ofa shoes. there is a sense that she is a bit of a robot and can't tell a joke and can't dance. you've got to feel a bit sorry for the prime minister. i do it all the time and no—one laughs. minister. i do it all the time and no-one laughs. she danced in public. who on earth would ever want anybody to see them dance in public. but she tried. she does try. i don't quite understand why it would have been funny. it hasn't been "simples" and hearing the likes of david davis, it hasn't been the easiest negation —— negotiation and we heard from liam fox, he managed to get six of the 40 trade deals that we were supposed to have. it certainly hasn't been "simples" and nothing about the next how many weeks, three, four weeks, is looking "simples". even in terms
11:44 pm
of is it going to be the 29th or not isn't "simples". the saving grace of the prime minister is the guy over the prime minister is the guy over the despatch box... he doesn't even try, does he? let's leave those and go to the guardian. emma thompson is on the front page. what is this story? she's written a letter announcing the fact that she is pulling out of an animated film called luck because of the association of the film company with a man called john lasseter who's been accused of sexual misconduct and she written a rather stinging letter to vanity fair, i think. they picked it up. variety magazine it was. she said in all good conscience, even though she loved the director in the film, this guy was appointed to the role so she is
11:45 pm
making a powerful statement. was appointed to the role so she is making a powerful statementm was appointed to the role so she is making a powerful statement. in the letter, she hinted that person was being given a second chance despite some of the victims not being given a second chance, who haven't had the opportunity to move on. the main point of the objection was this particular individual had been let go from a previous company and there have been issues in the past, and she took issue at the way in which she took issue at the way in which she had dealt with it, seemingly minimising minor missteps, rather than showing them something more significant and when youth been a victim of this type of behaviour, even those people who put their heads above the parapet and call it out, have found their own careers have absolutely suffered as a consequence. have absolutely suffered as a consequence. she talks about the fa ct consequence. she talks about the fact she regrets she left the production but she feels she is in a responsible position, which i think she is. it's big names like hers
11:46 pm
with a sort of set the pace on this kind of thing. she feels a real moral imperative to do this but what's also interesting is she didn't raise it up in big lights, it's been several weeks since she left the production of this film. it's kind of gone unnoticed and it's kind of hit the front pages. this will probably get a lot of traction. which takes is neatly onto the final paper. the lords is finally recognising the achievements of women on its honours boards. you have this honours board in the long room which records centuries. there will be an honours board for women
11:47 pm
as well, with equal prominence. i imagine, it wasn't a straightforward thing to achieve. i suspect not, but about time. how long have women been playing cricket? obviously not in a professional capacity in quite the same way. even if you look at the board in parliament, in the lobby we re board in parliament, in the lobby were i work, there are many, many names on the board. the vast majority of them are men. there are still institutions which are massively dominated by men and the su ccesses massively dominated by men and the successes of men and it's great to see that starting to change. symbols like this matter. absolutely. it's been great to have you in. 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 is 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.
11:48 pm
thank you, and goodbye. hello, sarah mulkerrins at the bbc sport centre. brendan rodgers is the new manager of leicester city, after leaving his job at celtic today. and he watched his new side beat brighton 2—1 at the king power stadium — with goals from demarai gray and jamie vardy. rodgers has signed a contract untiljune 2022 and succeeds claude puel, who was sacked on sunday after 16 months in charge. it marks a premier league return for rodgers, who previously managed liverpool and swansea city.
11:49 pm
celtic have appointed former manager neil lennon until the end of the season. he had been without a club since leaving hibernian last month. lennon led celtic to three league titles during his first spell and says he's "returning to one of the biggest and best clubs in world football." huddersfield ended their 14 game winless run with a late winner against wolves. steve mounie scored in the 91st minute to give jan siewert his first victory as terriers manager. huddersfield remain bottom, still 11 points from safety, but have their first win since beating wolves at molineux in november. my my thoughts are just with the boys because they me so proud today and there was so much, notjust them, there was so much, notjust them, the staff and everyone who is working in the club. i think we all
11:50 pm
can be proud to be huddersfield this evening. burnley suffered their first premier league defeat of 2019, beaten 2—0 at newcastle both goals came in the first half. fabien cher‘s stunning long range effort put the magpies ahead before sean longstaff scored his first goal for the club to make it two. the result lifts newcastle up to 13th — 7 points above the relegation zone gylfi sigurdsson scored twice as everton ended a run of three successive league defeats at relegation threatened cardiff. dominic calvert—lewin rounded off the 3—0 win that moves everton up to 9th. leeds united missed the chance to go top of the championship as they were beaten 1 nil at qpr. (gfx) luke freeman scored the winner as the hosts ended a run of seven —— luke freeman scored the winner as the hosts ended a run of seven straight league defeats. elsewhere birmingham beat bristol city 2—1 to move to within three points of the play—off places. hull city got their first victory
11:51 pm
in four games as they beat beat millwall 2—1. and steven fletcher scored twice to give sheffield wednesday all three points against brentford. tyson fury‘s next fight will not be the much anticipated rematch with wbc heavweight champion deontay wilder. their dramatic fight in december ended in a draw and many hoped a second bout could be made. but wbc president mauricio sulaiman said on social media that fury will take on an interim contest first in the summer, before looking at a rematch with wilder later in the year. wales lock cory hill will miss the rest of the six nations after injuring an ankle in saturday's win against england. the dragons second row was hurt as he scored the second—half try which gave wales the lead. there's better injury news elsewhere for the welsh: full—back leigh halfpenny is back in contention after playing a full game for scarlets on sunday after three months out following concussion. moeen ali will return home from the west indies after the conclusion of the one—day series. ali was initially named in the squad for the final three
11:52 pm
games of the caribbean tour, but the selectors have had a change of heart as they continue to manage the workloads of key players. he'll now fly home after the final one—dayer in st lucia. all rounder sam curran will replace him for the t20 series. that's all the sport for now. tuesday was another record—breaking day, 21.2dc at kew gardens. today is going to be another unusually warm day, lots of sunshine around but probably the last of the warm and sunny days the quite some time. our weather is changing. for a long time now, we've been on the warm side of this jetstream. you can now, we've been on the warm side of thisjetstream. you can see how now, we've been on the warm side of this jetstream. you can see how the position of the jet stream is going to change over the next few days. a stronger westerly jet coming to change over the next few days. a stronger westerlyjet coming out from the atlantic bringing cooler, more unsettled weather. at the moment, though, it still drier and a little chilly out there. temperatures not far away from
11:53 pm
freezing and want to places. a bit more mist and fog around especially around southern england, the midlands, the vale of york and the moray firth. sunshine foreign wide. sunshine coming to northern ireland, western and northern fringes of scotla nd western and northern fringes of scotland and through the irish sea with the many inland areas, dry and sunny and really warm to the highest temperatures around the london area of 19 or 20 degrees. the persistent area of high pressure is changing position. it's retreating, getting squeezed back down towards iberia and the azores which is where it should be. thursday will be a much cloudy day. it could be a little dull, a little misty and we will find some showery bursts of rain across southern england, wales, the midlands, perhaps into the north—west of england, a few heady bursts quite likely. rain in the north—east of scotland where temperatures are back down to nine degrees. a significant drop on what
11:54 pm
was seen degrees. a significant drop on what was seen recently and on top of that, sunshine as well. there may not be an awful lot of sunshine to start with either. the next weather front arriving in from the atlantic should hold towards the west through most of the day on friday. cloudy start, misty and murky again. some western areas may see some sunshine coming through those temperatures down at around 11 or 12 degrees, fairly typically. still a little above average for the time of year, quite a change from what we've seen. and it gets windy as we head into the weekend. strong to gale force wind, bands of rain followed by showers, a little sunshine and highs of around 12 or 13 celsius.
