hello, this is bbc news. hello. it‘s monday, it‘s 10 o‘clock, i‘m victoria derbyshire. how long has theresa may got? after a weekend of rumours with carrie gracie, just after 9.30. that she was going to be ousted, you're watching bbc will she offer to stand down news at nine with me, in exchange for support carrie gracie — the headlines: for her brexit deal? she‘s about to hold a meeting the headlines: theresa may under pressure of her cabinet, where things may ahead of a cabinet or may not become clearer. theresa may under pressure meeting this morning, ahead of a cabinet as mps prepare to vote on taking meeting this morning as mps prepare we have to think our way to vote on taking control control of the brexit process. through this problem. of the brexit process. we have to think our way we have to think our way through this problem. it‘s simply not enough to say, through this problem. it‘s simply not enough to say, "if we throw the prime it's simply not enough to say, minister overboard, "if we throw the prime things will be all right", minister overboard, because it really things will be all right", because it really won‘t change anything. won't change anything. cleared of collusion — cleared of collusion. the us president claims we have to deliver on what the complete exoneration the president claims complete exoneration after the special counsel finds no after the special council finds no evidence of his election campaign voters instructed us to do. that is evidence of his election campaign conspiring with russia. our democratic duty. conspiring with russia. there was no collusion with russia. the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. there was no collusion with russia. there was no collusion with russia. will ministers tell mrs may tonight the most ridiculous what breaks it down they are prepared to accept? —— what brexit thing i've ever heard. there was no collusion with russia. deal they are prepared to accept? the extraordinary lengths criminals go to smuggle contraband into prisons — these drugs and mobile phones were sewn into the insides the extraordinary lengths of three dead rats. criminals go to smuggle contraband into prisons — these drugs and mobile

the enigmatic singer scott walker — phones were sewn into the insides of three dead rats. the enigmatic singer scott walker — one third of the walker brothers one third of the walker brothers, who also went on to achieve solo success — who also went on to achieve solo has died at the age of 76. success — has died at the age of 76. time now for the morning briefing, and in sport, gareth southgate where we bring you up to speed tells his england players to expect on the stories people are watching, a "hostile environment" reading and sharing. and theresa may is expected to update her cabinet this morning when they face montenegro tonight. on her brexit strategy, after a weekend in which senior ministers denied reports of a plot to oust her. the prime minister is battling to retain control of the brexit process, with mps preparing to take it out of the government‘s hands. mrs may met pro—brexit tories yesterday, to assess good morning and welcome if there‘s enough support to the bbc news at nine. to bring her withdrawal agreement back for a third vote. in the week the uk was supposed the international trade secretary to leave the eu, theresa may and cabinet brexiteer liam fox spoke to bbc breakfast earlier. is still battling to get her brexit deal through the commons. over the weekend we saw a march there are a number of realities for another referendum, that we have to face here. and senior pro—brexit conservatives first of all, the public voted called to chequers for lengthy talks to leave the european union, with the prime minister. and we have to honour that. a leaflet went into every house, let's take a look at if you remember, saying, "it's your choice, the government what theresa may faces today. will implement your decision",

to begin, she'll hold a special so we have to do that. meeting with her cabinet, that's secondly, there is only one deal at around 10 o'clock this morning. that's been negotiated after that, she's due to sit with the eu 27 countries, down with the labour and that's the deal currently leaderjeremy corbyn. on the table that the prime minister has negotiated. there are two other options, really. mrs may will then bring mps up—to—date in the commons, one is to leave the european union following last week's eu summit. without a deal, and the other is to not leave the european union at all. i think in terms of the ability the next steps in the brexit process to leave without a deal, will then be debated before a series that is constrained by parliament. of votes at around 10pm, which could see mps take more control over the process. i think we will see today — and i think we've seen and depending on how today pans out, from previous debates in the house of commons — we could be looking at a third that there's probably a majority in the house of commons that meaningful vote on her brexit deal will try to stop us leaving as soon as tomorrow. without a deal, which really leaves or there could be a series of votes to find out which form us then with no brexit, and as you've just shown of brexit mps would support. from my labour colleague, whatever happens, this friday's date baroness chakra barti, that would be regarded as a betrayal to leave the eu has been missed, by a lot of voters. with all eyes now on april 12th. and this is the key element for me and all of this. parliament gave its word to the people of this country — our assistant politcal editor, now parliament has to implement norman smith is at downing street for us this morning. that.

we face a pivotal cabinet meeting that was liam fox. which ministers will have to make decisions about mrs may's next well, if the prime minister‘s deal steps. one option is of course just doesn‘t come before parliament again, or is defeated, to keep battering away with mrs the commons could seize control of the brexit process. may's deal, trying to wear down the oliver letwin is a former brexiteers and the dup in the hope cabinet office minister who is one of those behind efforts to find that they can get the numbers down and there is chance of getting it cross party compromises in the commons. he spoke on the today through. the second option involves programme earlier. constitutionally, if the house a power struggle with parliament of commons were to get a majority because the view in number ten is in favour of a particular solution, that would not be a piece that tonight, mps are poised to of legislation in itself. seize control of the brexit process so what‘s the point of them? because, in the first place, if we begin this process by passing a motion which will on wednesday, there is a real chance enable mps to hold what are called that if not — and i don‘t think it is likely to happen indicative votes. boiled down, these on the first round — but if not in the first round then area in the second, or maybe even, indicative votes. boiled down, these are a series of votes on the very quickly thereafter, different brexit possibilities. you a third, i think we might could have votes on another get to a majority view, referendum, you could have votes on and once you‘ve got a majority view, first of all the government knows no deal or votes on staying in a what could obtain a majority customs union. you could have votes in the house of commons — a pretty important thing to find on labour's brexit deal. the out, because the whole problem thinking is that parliament would with the prime minister‘s deal, then be able to reach some sort of which i‘ve voted for all the way along, is that she hasn‘t been consensus about what it wanted and able to get a majority. that would increase the pressure on we don‘t know what she could get mrs may to adopt parliament because a majority for, so once we find that out there is a way

my preferred route. however, the forward, in principle. thinking in downing street is far then the next thing would be for the prime minister to take that forward, and for the government better for the government to seize to implement it, and parliament of course has the opportunity control of the process by saying to legislate, to mandate. tonight, you know what, we will hold of course you could construct some very complicated system, but the house of commons is not used the indicative votes. mps, you don't to those systems, and i think it have to do it, we will organise it. would be difficult to construct. i‘m more optimistic — i think mps actually do recognise the strategy seems to be that if you that we have a terrible problem here. choreograph the votes in a certain let‘s focus on the problem. way, it is likely that mps will not on the 12th, absent a decision about a way forward be able to reach any decisions. they that the prime minister can present will not have a majority for as a new plan to the eu, anything and in the ensuing chaos this country will leave the eu without a deal. and indecision, you could then bring now, that is, i think, and i think many, many of your back mrs may's deal is the only listeners will think, viable agreement on the table and a very great risk for this country. we are trying to avoid that. say to mps, you have had your there‘s no way we can avoid that chance, you have not been able to risk other than for mps to focus reach a consensus. at least mrs on the need to have an alternative, may's deal is agreed with the eu, and i think mps are very grown—up and sensible about this, it's good to go and we can get out and if given the opportunity eventually, not necessarily in the first round, of the eu. meanwhile, of course, they will probably come up huge pressure on the prime with an alternative. minister's position after yesterday, brexiteers were summoned to check is some reports that some of them urged mrs may to set out a timetable for

that was oliver letwin. lots more on her departure. but this morning, the all of the brexit developments international trade secretary liam fox played down all suggestions that later. but on other news... mrs may should leave. but onto other news... there‘s going to be a new player we are constrained by the fact that in the space currently occupied we have a leave electorate in the by netflix and amazon prime, and it‘s a big player too. apple is announcing that it is going parliament that leans towards remain. the government doesn't have to start providing its own tv programmes and a news a majority in the house of commons service as well. and is dependent on a confidence and the company that brought us the iphone is moving into an area supply with the dup. changing the where it‘s plainly not the first, but it‘ll want to be the best. prime minister doesn't change any of earlier, david abraham, that basic arithmetic. we have to the former ceo of channel 4, was on the today programme think our way through this problem. it's simply not enough to say that discussing apple‘s new venture. if we throw the prime minister overboard, things will be all right, this is a big moment for the media because it won't change anything. industry globally, but also for british producers because some of those programmes that you are going to see emerging will be made here in the uk. so, you know, no one can the other plus for number ten is have a monopoly on hits, that if parliament seems to be and as we saw with netflix edging toward some sort of customs and with amazon, players with deep union or staying in the single pockets are capable of producing impact culturally and also market, the argument is that that creatively, so it‘s an exciting will spook the brexiteers and make moment, i think, for the industry. them more likely to come on board. and what about for the consumer of all of this? this morning the work and pensions can the industry appeal —

secretary amber rudd, made this if it‘s going to compete with netflix, you‘re going to have direct appeal to one of their to make choices, or perhaps have all the services. number, iain duncan smith. does that work financially? there is a debate going on about how ijust wanted to urge many of these services iain duncan smith and others to help we could practically tolerate, us make sure that we get but this is going against a backdrop of a big structural change, which is that consumers around the withdrawal agreement the world have been paying very large amounts of money to be locked into walled gardens, through this week, so we end and what‘s happening now is all these services are coming the chaos and try to get in at much lower price points. back to a stable situation so it seems to be the case that and leave the european union. i'm going to be backing consumers are prepared to have two, their withdrawal agreement and working with the prime minister three, maybe four of the services, and we are going to see new services and other ministers to make sure that we do that. coming from the new disney fox do you think the prime ministers should resign to break the brexit impasse? no, i think the prime minister is doing the right thing, grouping quite soon. the right thing thinking about the national interests of the country and trying to end this chaos by getting this agreement through. do you think the mps can build a consensus around any alternatives so perhaps we will all have several, to the pm's brexit deal? they‘ll be at lower price points, we'll see what will happen this week and we‘ll sort of shift between them in terms of the possibility of additional votes, but i'm still committed to trying as we follow the shows that we love. to work with the prime minister to get the agreement through. that's the best way to end this chaos. thank you very much. more on that later. thank you very much, minister.

let‘s look at what you have been checking out, most red and most so, the putative putsch against mrs watched stories. scott walker, may at the weekend seems to have number one, and we will look at that fizzled out. does that mean she is home and dry? absolutely not. if a with our entertainment correspondent inafew with our entertainment correspondent in a few moments, so more on that deal goes down for a third time, later. i am interested by the one at numberfive, it's hard to see how she could later. i am interested by the one at number five, which was later. i am interested by the one at numberfive, which was higher earlier in the morning. the editor survive. if parliament comes up with of the daily telegraph at the time some alternative brexit strategy which tramples all over her red talking about will lewis, the former lines, it is hard to see how she editor of the telegraph, quite could survive. and maybe if she interesting how he is saying he was feels down the line that signalling at the stall for the daily telegraph her departure date would get a deal at the stall for the daily telegraph at the stall for the daily telegraph at the chelsea flower show, and at through, maybe she might be tempted the time of the expenses scandal, no to go down that road, albeit at the one was talking to him, no one coming up, but then the queen came moment, there has been no sign of up coming up, but then the queen came up to have a chat, and it doesn‘t it. norman, thank you. say exactly what she said but it is the sun newspaper has used its front page to urge theresa may to set really intriguing reading between a date for her resignation to win the lines of this piece that she over reluctant tories and the democratic unionist party in order to bolster the chances left him extremely full of of her withdrawal agreement resolution, he says, about going passing in a third vote. back and pursuing that story, the mp i'm joined now by trevor kavanagh, who's a political columnist at the sun and is also expenses scandal. i think that is interesting. and among the most

their former political editor. watched, really harrowing, catching your attention, the story about an 11—year—old american girl sold by the point of this resignation date, in your view at the sun, is that it her own father for sex as a would bring more in behind the withdrawal agreement, but would it teenager. this went on repeatedly bring enough? that is impossible to a nswer bring enough? that is impossible to answer at the moment, but it's the and went on really for nearly 20 only possibility now for the prime yea rs and went on really for nearly 20 years but it is a story that despite minister's withdrawal agreement. u nless being very, very bleak, has a minister's withdrawal agreement. unless she indicates a departure date, i don't think she will rally message, really, to young people which is to get help. because she enough people even to get that deal eventually did reach out and get help, and she talks about turning through. and even if you do signal that she is going to go, which is her life around. inevitable one way or another, there the other big stories on the most is no certainty that she will get her numbers. norman smith is right watched this morning, this nazi that she needs to think carefully about where she goes now. stolen painting. a really interesting piece about the uffizi that she needs to think carefully about where she goes nowm that she needs to think carefully about where she goes now. if you are theresa may in downing street this morning, do you think you might be galleries, the vase of flowers, a thinking, rather than indicating the date of my departure, i need to masterpiece stolen during the second think about a different strategy? world war, and about them putting up a black—and—white imitation of that work of art in the gallery, and by there are no real alternatives, because the withdrawal bill is the doing that they are hoping, the

only deal that is actually around. uffizi, to shame whoever stole that, the alternative, which is no deal, well, not whoever stole the painting would have been acceptable to many in the 40s because they are probably of those who want brexit and have no longer with us, but to shame the person in possession of that campaigned for that, but that seems to be off the table. but not painting now. and just before we leave this, just a quick word about absolutely certainly. so there is a this really lovely piece down there choice. either she takes the risk of about amputees playing football in no deal, which she clearly doesn't belfast, and getting notjust, you wa nt no deal, which she clearly doesn't want and will strive to avoid, or know, the benefits of the sport, but she does her best to get her own withdrawal bill through and then, at getting the benefits of each other‘s support out there on the pitch. a a stage which can be decided later, really nice piece to have a look at as long as it's clear that it is if you have time. sadly, we have to going to happen, she announces that move on. that is it for today‘s she will go. i think she would have an outside chance of getting it morning briefing, but let‘s turn to through. thinking ahead to when she the sport, with sally. what do you might go if he took that route, what have? yes, waiting very patiently would be the prospect for any successor? your view in the sun is for you, carrie. clearly that she doesn't command the confidence of the country or her own good morning. party and should go. but is there scotland, wales and northern ireland anyone else who would command that all won their euro 2020 qualifiers yesterday, but for scotland confidence in the country or in the victory did little to encourage fans.

party, better? it's a difficult manager alex mcleish was booed. the tartan army chanted, "sack the board" — question. the party is extremely and they actually won the match! divided in various ways and i can't they beat san marino 2—0, but it was an unconvincing performance and san marino are officially see how we can say that any one the worst side in international football. person could do it. the candidate as fans were clearly still smarting from that 3—0 defeat by kazakhstan last week. far as the conservative party is concerned is borisjohnson. the tory i think the players felt it but, you know, listen, that‘s football, mps will do all they can to avoid and that is part of getting him getting on the final ballot a strong mentality. paper of two names. if there is a brexiter on the final ballot paper that‘s how you get the education of two names, he will have a chance of a strong mentality. with the party at large. and what do but, listen, i‘m not feeling sorry for myself. but, you know, you have to take the pressure, and you have to store it in there, you think is going to happen? the sun has said what it wants to happen. as a political analyst for and bounce back. many years, what do you think will pan out over the next few days? there has never been anything like wales got their campaign off to a winning start. this, carry. the simple picture is dan james‘ goal after just five minutes seeing off slovakia. that the prime minister's authority wales don‘t play again now untiljune, when they face two really tricky games away over her cabinet and mps is at croatia and hungary. com pletely over her cabinet and mps is completely shot, and probably over the entire country. she will have to northern ireland completed a clean sweep. go eventually and in the they left it late to beat belarus

not—too—distant go eventually and in the not—too—dista nt future. it's go eventually and in the not—too—distant future. it's in her hands to decide when that will be, to make it two wins from two but in her case, she should go with some dignity while she can instead at the start of qualifying — of being bundled up, which will josh magennis with the winner. happen if she doesn't. we haven't england aim to keep their winning start going tonight. gareth southgate‘s side yet looked at the alternative are in montenegro, a team they‘ve only beaten once in four attempts. the atmosphere for the match is likely to be hostile, players. norman talked about the but southgate says that won‘t stop him from picking younger players. possible indicative vote process. she has a choice of possibly being in command of that, or leaving it to parliament to be in command. if parliament to be in command. if parliament gets the bit between its no hesitation. teeth, what will be the outcome? it's a huge risk all round. there this is part of their education and are so many different possibilities that could emerge, and indeed the to be a top team, we have got to adapt to every possibility that none of them will environment we go into. so the only way they can learn emerge. so it could be more chaos. and improve is to go the longer this drags on, the more through these experiences. that match tonight dominates damage it is doing to the whole today‘s back papers. system of democracy and politics in the sun go with "monte—aggro" this country. and to the reputation as their headline — they warn that fans are notoriously hostile. of parliament and members of cool monte is the mirror headline — parliament. unless this is wrapped they report that gareth southgate up parliament. unless this is wrapped up quickly, the long—term system of has told his players not to get trust in our party and system of wound up by the intense atmosphere,

government will be eroded, may be as wayne rooney did back in 2011. permanently. trevor, have a big bowl of porridge because it is going to and there‘s an awful story in some bea of porridge because it is going to be a big week, demanding resilience of the online pages — on all sides. thank you. here the mail — saying the former a plan to tackle traffic disruption liverpool midfielder gary mcallister was reportedly attacked on saturday in kent in the event night in leeds city centre, of a no—deal brexit on his way home from watching a legends match at anfield. is now ready to be we will keep you posted on how he is brought into effect. doing. one side of the m20 heading arsenal returned to the top towards dover will be reserved of the women‘s super league with a 5—1 thumping of liverpool. for queuing lorries, under what's known as operation brock. england striker beth mead scored all other traffic would be twice — we‘re not sure if this restricted to a contraflow system was a cross or a shot, on the opposite side but they all count. of the motorway. there's been good news arsenal are a point clear of manchester city for donald trump after a two year with a game in hand. investigation cleared his campaign team of collusion with russia there's been good news it seems beth mead herself wasn‘t too sure whether that for donald trump after a two year was a shot or a cross. investigation cleared his campaign team of collusion with russia during the 2016 election. but while the report lifts a big this is what she called it. cloud from his presidency, it draws no conclusion as to whether or not he committed a crime by obstructing justice, as our washington correspondent "crot" was how she described chris buckler explains. for almost two years, robert mueller scrutinised it on social media. the actions of donald trump and his campaign it‘s cost £1 billion and it‘s

to become president. # proud to be an american... arrived more than six months late, the special counsel was asked but the sun shone down to investigate whether russia interfered in the 2016 election, on mauricio pochettino and whether they conspired with the trump campaign. and 30,000 fans as tottenham‘s new white hart lane finally hosted a football match. their under—18s beat southampton — as fans, at last, had the chance while mr mueller says to inspect their new surroundings, the russian government did try to influence the vote, including the longest bar in europe. he says he's found no their first premier league game evidence of collusion. there is on the 3rd of april. after rory mcilroy last week, there was no collusion with russia. there was no obstruction, more home success for our golfers and none whatsoever. in the united states. and it was a complete this time it was paul casey, who successfully defended a title for the first time in his career and total exoneration. to win the valspar championship in florida. just two weeks out from the masters, traitor! casey said the win was "mega" for his confidence. robert mueller‘s investigation did lead to charges being brought against some of mr trump's inner circle. however, those prosecutions weren't connected to the key issue of whether there was collusion with russia, and after months of speculation and allegations it was a good weekend for charity, too — you can see on casey‘s here in washington, celebratory post on social media, what the special counsel has found unicef is among the hashtags. is very good news for this president he is an ambassador and this white house. for the children‘s charity and he donates £100

for each birdie he makes. but mr mueller has left one question unanswered, and that's whether the president and there were 18 in florida — plus an eagle — not sure tried to obstructjustice. how much that cost him! mr mueller wrote that this report well done. does not conclude that the president committed a crime. it also does not exonerate him. now, he‘s one of snooker‘s greatest players, but ronnie o‘sullivan doesn‘t spend much time at the top however, for now, president trump is celebrating. of the world rankings. he returned to the nation's capital with relief, rather than rage. he‘s back there now, though, for the first time since 2010, america is the greatest place on after beating neil robertson to win earth, the greatest place on earth. the tour championship in wales. he says that considering he plays about half the tournaments and he may have seen off one most of his rivals do, of the greatest threats it is one of his best achievements. to his presidency of it. cyclist jason kenny is just one gold chris buckler, bbc news, washington. medal away from becoming britain‘s most successful olympian outright — let's now speak to us political commentator it‘s a title he currently shares and economist laurie laird. with sir chris hoy — and he‘ll get his chance at the tokyo games next year. jason‘s with us now. it isa it is a big moment. what do you make of it? it's a massive moment, but i good morning, jason. thank you for coming in. where are we now? what is am not very surprised. despite the the tally between you and sir chris success of the donald trump campaign, it was a very naive hoy? six gold, one silver. you don't campaign, it was a very naive campaign and unsophisticated. they could not have conspired with one

need another gold, just another another, much less russian operatives. so the fact that there medal? simple as that! sounds really was no conspiracy is not a surprise. easy! in your preparations now for tokyo next year, are you at the donald trump can now move on. yes, point you would expect to be, ahead the question of whether he of it, behind it? what can you tell obstructed justice remains unanswered, but most americans will us? i have learned not to expect look at this and say, thank god that anything, to be honest. and this is over. it was exhausted. if you cycle is completely different. my put in the context of brexit here, first time going to the olympics, it's one of those stories, the this being a dad, it is a learning curve and making it up as you go westminster bubble stories. in washington, reporters are fascinated along. i curve and making it up as you go along. lam reasonably curve and making it up as you go along. i am reasonably happy with by this, but this minute to minute how things are going. what difference has it made, you now coverage, americans are not watching it and they want it to be over. that being a dad? i don't know, i is interesting. do you think the democrats need to be careful as a suppose, you have to go up a lot, result not to keep pushing it? and being an athlete before being a dad, it was all about looking after absolutely. you took my main point. yourself, and you are quite selfish donald trump has almost set a trap ina way, yourself, and you are quite selfish in a way, making sure you are in the best condition possible. now there for the democrats. the democrats have to decide whether to are things we don't have a choice investigate or whether they about. you have to be at home to legislate, and they will look exactly like sore losers if they look after the little one as much as possible, which is great fun, to be continue to pick over this. we talk fair. i wouldn't want it any other

endlessly about donald trump and he gives us such rich material, way, but it is not ideal, and if you americans despise congress. 12% had told me i was at —— when i was approval rating compared to donald 17, i would had told me i was at —— when i was 17, iwould be had told me i was at —— when i was 17, i would be compromising things trump's slightly over a0%. and they like that, i would think i had no chance of winning. you very much will argue that congress has not involved with road safety, and that done itsjob. let's go back to the is why you are here today. you had government shutdown over the an incident recently. when you were allocation of funding. that is out cycling. what happened? as yes, congress‘ job, not the an unfortunate excuse where someone president‘s,yet congress would not felt had the right of way, —— stand up to the president. americans are frustrated with congress. if the an unfortunate excuse where someone felt had the right of way, -- yes, an unfortunate experience. elbow in the back, rub me up the wrong way, democratic control of the house of representatives continues to pick on and i'm ashamed to say i lost my trump to fall into this trap that he temper. but i am here, like you has laid for them, and i am a victim, they will not do well said, on road safety. british cycling are trying to address the electorally. so you are not drawing fa ct cycling are trying to address the fact that most parents wouldn't let a conclusion as to whether he their children out on the roads, so obstructed justice, is just a a conclusion as to whether he obstructed justice, isjust a case of political pragmatism in your view hsbc uk have teamed up with british that the democrats would be astute cycling and we are doing these to avoid pursuing it further? events, closed roads, in the centre of towns, and you get to enjoy city absolutely. congress has to fulfil its role of oversight, but they have centres and kind of, go out, you to be careful to pick their battles. know, family environment was to pick a couple of things to obviously not the answer to the

several members of family with the pieces, much—needed aid is little children were hurt and have finally arriving. the airport is unusually busy. international aid been taken to hospital for treatment. this is something very unusual. yes, there were those two claims unloaded shelter kits, rockets that were fired towards tel aviv two weeks ago, longer range clothes and food. this operation is no longer about rescuing people. it rockets, but this is the furthest that a rocket has reached inside is now about getting aid to those who need it the most. it has been israel since the 2014 full—scale more than a week since the conflict between israel and hamas militants in gaza. you‘re talking devastating tropical cyclone idai hit, and aid is finally ramping up. about an area that is some 50 miles it isa hit, and aid is finally ramping up. it is a race against time. many have from the north of the gaza strip. so eaten for days and are in desperate need of clean drinking water. there people would have expected israel‘s and no missile defence system to are fears of outbreaks of diseases bring these down. that didn‘t happen such as malaria and cholera, but as in this case and now we are told yet nothing has been confirmed. as that the israeli military is expected to respond forcefully. and far as yet nothing has been confirmed. as faras i‘m yet nothing has been confirmed. as far as i‘m concerned, no confirmed cases of cholera to date, and that is important to understand. i agree they were experts in israel think with the minister that there will be they were experts in israel think the technology of the rockets in cases of waterborne disease, and if question is different, improved, or we are on top of that, we have the was it just a treatment centres set up, we will be question is different, improved, or was itjust a chance factor that able to manage that. it is where we

caused it to get through? the lose disease surveillance through lack of access that it will be israeli military is saying that this isa israeli military is saying that this is a rocket that is made by hamas, really problematic. but the mozambique government believes it is which of course controls the gaza only a matter of time. we will have cholera, for sure. iwas strip, and it‘s a rocket that they only a matter of time. we will have cholera, for sure. i was explaining in portuguese we will have cholera, believe was fired by hamas as well. malaria. it is unavoidable in this they have told us they take this situation so the government is extremely seriously. the timing of opening a cholera treatment centre already. the scale of the this is sensitive because the devastation felt by people here has israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu israeli prime minister benjamin neta nyahu had just arrived sent shock waves in many parts, and israeli prime minister benjamin there is no doubt it will be a while netanyahu had just arrived in washington for very high profile talks with president trump. he is before things go back to normal. fighting a closely contested election campaign. elections are due here next month. the prime minister is also the defence minister and has had to quickly say that after nomsa maseko, bbc news. meeting president trump, he is going the prince of wales and duchess of cornwall have made history to return home quickly, cut his trip by becoming the first members of the royal family to visit cuba short, and that he will be in an official capacity. our royal correspondent overseeing operations closely. nicolas witchell is travelling with the couple, and has sent this report from havana. welcome to cuba — concerning the timing, this week it the guard of honour will be one year since those of the revolutionary armed forces

of one of the world‘s last remaining protests proved so deadly along single—party communist states, with a greeting gaza‘s boundary fence with israel for the representative of perhaps started, so there had already been the world‘s best—known fears that they could be some kind of escalation. an egyptian security representative monarchy, prince charles of the united kingdom. tea m of escalation. an egyptian security team that was trying to broker a band plays god save the queen sort of longer term ceasefire deal between israel and hamas was due to no member of the british royal family has ever been to cuba before, arrive in gaza just after this to stand alongside portraits of revolutionaries like che guevara, rocket was launched. that has not peeping through on the left here. now happened. the border crossings but charles and his wife are in havana as a sign of britain‘s have been closed on those efforts to readiness to engage with cuba, get a longer term truce now seem to be injeopardy. yolande, thank you. and so at the memorial to one of cuba‘s national heroes from its 19th century revolutionary at home, drugs, tobacco and mobile war of independence from spain, phones were smuggled into a prison a wreath was placed and respect was duly shown. stuffed inside dead rats. it‘s the kind of things for those of you with the royals can do — a nervous disposition — you might want to look away now. send a signal without getting the items were sewn enmeshed with things like cuba‘s human rights record. inside the bodies of three rats found by officers in early march in the grounds of hmp guys marsh it does something else too — near shaftesbury in dorset. it sends a message to cuba‘s powerful northern neighbour. what this visit does is underline the contrast between britain‘s approach to cuba and that the prison service say it was the first recorded instance of rats being used in that way. of donald trump‘s america.

britain wants to encourage. it said it was investigating president trump‘s america wants to pressurise, with dorset police, but was unable and, to an extent, to punish. to say whether anyone had been arrested. with me now is home affairs the message from london, conveyed by this visit by the heir correspondent danny shaw. to the british throne, is a more emollient one. is this a first for you? certainly! it‘s an encouragement to cuba to move on down the road to economic i have been covering prisons for a and political reform. long time. we had known that drugs have been smuggled in through tennis balls which were lobbed over prison walls. there was even a report that was never substantiated a few years well, time for a look at the weather ago that pigeon carcasses were used now with simon. to smuggle in contraband. but this is the first time that dead rats thank you, carrie. for many a chilly have been used. prisons have a start to the day but many have woken problem with vermin. there have been up start to the day but many have woken up to blue skies and sunshine. this a lot of inspection reports over the is one weather watcher picture yea rs a lot of inspection reports over the years saying that mice and rats are showing how glorious where you are, in prisons, so it would not be a surprise for a prison officer to sheffield earlier on. high pressure come across a dead rat in the dominating things from the west. we grounds of a prison. but what arouse have this week warm front moving the suspicion was to see the slowly in across northern ireland and scotland, bringing more cloud at stitching along the stomach of one the moment. this is the latest of the dead rats, and when they satellite imagery. some fair weather inspected it further, they saw that cloud across wales and the south and

the rats had been gutted and stuffed eastern coast of england, but clear skies for many. we will continue with those clear skies into the full of bags of packets of drugs, afternoon. but still that cloud for pills, mobile phones, sim cards, north—western scotland, northern ireland, a few showers could be moving on. drive for many, a bit of charges. three dead rats in all. that contra band would charges. three dead rats in all. that contraband would have sold in a stronger breeze around the coast guys marsh prison for tens of of east anglia —— dry for many. thousands of pounds. firstly, a elsewhere, temperature limit up to number of prisoners would have got about 11—14, and with those light high from the effects of taking the winds it should feel quite pleasant drugs. secondly, it would have caused a problem of debt because the prisoners who would have paid that —— temperatures getting up to about money would have had to then try and 11-14. in the repay it. that causes a spiral of —— temperatures getting up to about 11—14. in the far south, with the sky is clearest for longest, bullying and violence. so by temperatures could get close to intercepting those packages, the freezing so there could be a bit of prison officers have probably a ground frost first thing tuesday prevented a lot of problems in guy morning. elsewhere, with that blanket of load moving in, up at marsh. and yet in mira converse about 2—5dc. a bright start in the terms, there might be a lot of rats with better stitching that have got south on tuesday —— that blanket of through. exactly. if those were cloud moving on. some sunny spells intercepted, how many more are being trying to break through that cloud found? intercepted, how many more are being found ? several weeks intercepted, how many more are being found? several weeks ago we went to but it will be quite thick across a prison and saw a harry potter book scotland, northern ireland, and some outbreaks of rain in the north—west. that had been sprayed with the

temperatures on tuesday around synthetic cannabis substitute spice 11-14dc. temperatures on tuesday around 11—14dc. high pressure stays with us onto one of the pages of that book for much of the week, and that will and then once the book was in the block and divert these fronts, prison, the pages were being rolled skirting to the far north of up prison, the pages were being rolled up and smoked by prisoners desperate scotland. with that high pressure the winds rotate around in a for a fix. and that raises the clockwise direction and that will start to draw in some of the warmer question, is this a losing battle? and milderair start to draw in some of the warmer and milder airfrom start to draw in some of the warmer and milder air from the south—west. temperatures will rise from mid week the creativity of people determined to get theirfix the creativity of people determined to get their fix or get their phone onwards. wednesday, more sunshine or whatever it is they want from the compared to tuesday, especially for outside. it's a real uphill struggle england and wales. still more cloud for the prison authorities, because over scotla nd england and wales. still more cloud they are getting better at detecting over scotland and northern ireland, some outbreaks of rain affecting the far north, but temperatures starting drugs coming in through prisoners to move up a couple of degrees, hiding them in their bodies. there are x—ray scanners now, searching is 13-15 to move up a couple of degrees, 13—15 on wednesday. by thursday, it being beefed up and perimeter could be as high as 17, maybe even fencing is being tightened. but 18 in the south—east of england. prisoners are ingenious. when they plenty of dry and bright weather are desperate to get drugs in and they know there is money to be made, thursday and friday. temperatures they know there is money to be made, they will find a way of doing it. thank you. typically around 14, 15, maybe 16 there‘s been confusion over the results of celsius. certainly a springlike feel the election in thailand. mid week onwards, with some sunny

preliminary results put spells. that‘s it for me. bye—bye. a pro—army party in the lead, contrary to expectations. but we‘re now expecting a significant correction from the thai election commission. our correspondent nick beake is in bangkok for us. a lot of confusion over this? this isa a lot of confusion over this? this is a really confused picture and it is a really confused picture and it isa is a really confused picture and it is a hugely significant moment for ties because for the past five yea rs, ties because for the past five years, there has been a military dictatorship in power here. it may not be obvious for the tourists who continue to come and those 1 million brits who enjoy a holiday here, no overt signs of the military on the streets, but it has been a military man in control and this was the first opportunity that the people of thailand could say whether they were happy with a calling the shots and if they are happy with the generals taking them forward. last night, as you mentioned, it did seem that after 90% of the votes had been counted, the party was set up just a year ago, allied with the military

and had won the popular vote. they we re and had won the popular vote. they were expected to come in third place but they seem to have topped the popular vote. however, there are considerable concerns about the integrity of the vote because some of the maths doesn‘t add up. for example, the turnout seems to be 65%, which is incredibly low, bearing in mind that the thais had to wait so long to have a voice in their future. when you think back to their future. when you think back to the clashes that we saw in the past, they worry must be that the integrity of this process breaks down and violence follows? absolutely. that is very much on peoples minds. there was a working assumption that the military would hang onto power because in the last couple of years, they have changed the political system, so the senate has been created and they have 250 appointed members who are thought to be loyal to the military. so it was expected that they would stay in power in some way, but questions

might be asked about the legitimacy of the military continuing their rule. if it is the case that these results are declared to be official in the coming weeks and the military are able to form a coalition government, the working assumption is that there will be some sort of stability here with the army in charge. and if the polls are to be believed, that is what most thais would want. they are a conservative society in many ways and they seem to have gone for this option of sticking with the secure option. that is what the military were promising in the weeks leading up to the vote. in a moment, the weather, but first let‘s join victoria derbyshire to find out what she‘s got coming up in her programme at ten: yes, police are fighting a losing battle against knife crime. that is the one from former prime ministers toni blair. speaking exclusively to

our programme, he urges theresa may to tackle it as an issue of the highest priority. if you're going to defeat something like this from the top of government, you have got to have an absolute focus, total determination and do whatever it takes to get the problem solved. join us at ten on bbc two, bbc news and online. now it‘s time for a look at the weather. for some of us, it is glorious sunshine. a lot of sunshine to start the day. there are showers across the day. there are showers across the north and west. if you have those will go to the east. but many of us will miss them and have a fine day with lengthy sunny spells. this evening, we will still have some showers around. more cloud across the northern half of the country, producing those showers. but in the

south, it will be a cooler night than the one just gone. the fog will lift tomorrow to start on a bright note. tomorrow it is going to be cloudier than today. we do have rain across the north and west of scotland. showers in northern ireland and northern england. but 00:31:21,792 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 not all of us will see them.
