from numerous illnesses, including heart disease and cancer. with me is jane foley, senior foreign exchange strategist at rabobank. good morning, jane. are you someone who likes to go on a run?” good morning, jane. are you someone who likes to go on a run? i do go running. yes. i am not good at that. they don't know why they call it a fun run. it's not fun at all. most honest miserable to me. we look at the independent, security chiefs, they must release the russia report. it looked into moscow's attempts to influence things like the brexit campaign, and other high—profile figures in russian and russian business, and their influence in the uk. this is right. if we go back to before this report was commissioned and look at some of the evidence, for instance in 2017, swansea university, one of the us
5:46 am
universities, said they had 150,000 accou nts universities, said they had 150,000 accounts identified links with russia that we did about brexit. there are other ones, accusations about some of the big funders of the tory party, inks with russia. so there was an investigation. the investigation was or the enquiry was by the, security and intelligence committee. they said they finished the report several months ago and they said the intelligence agencies have no problem with it now being reported, printed, published, but number10, reported, printed, published, but number 10, the prime minister is dragging his feet. there are complaints about this. why is the prime minister dragging his feet? and now because parliament will close at the end of today, head of the december 12 election, it looks unlikely that we will get the publication of this enquiry until after the election. it will get put off before an election, before we all go to the polls on who should be
5:47 am
the next government. it is an interesting situation. this is in the light of the inquiries in the united states into the 2016 presidential election there and the concern that there was a loss of russian meddling. that's right. certainly on social media and campaigning going on, to influence people's decision. yesterday we had, in the house of lords, lord anderson saying that because the prime minister won't publish it yet it has raised suspicion of the government and his motives. interesting. let's talk about so lindsay hoyle who was elected as the new speaker of the house of commons so lindsay hoyle. he has been deputy speaker was some time working withjohn bercow. many argue he was not a surprise. not when it comes to the choice. voted in by all the mps and drag to his position. we are looking at the ta blet position. we are looking at the tablet now. it is interesting, the reason why the speaker is straight,
5:48 am
it is an old tradition, because the speaker would communicate the opinion of the comments to the monarch. there was a chance of early death if the monarch disagreed with the message. and apparently many, many, the message. and apparently many, any the message. and apparently many, many, many years ago, some speakers we re many, many years ago, some speakers were beheaded. so there you go. so you drag them to the chair, you have to encourage them to take the chair. i don't think that is a risk for sir lindsay hoyle. but tell us about him. we know he is an experienced speaker. he has been the devontae for a long time. he is a northerner. we have had a number of speakers in recent yea rs. we have had a number of speakers in recent years. we had betty boothroyd who brought the entertainment. she was there yesterday watching some of the proceedings to that vote. and we just had... ten years ofjohn bercow. many people associate him with his vocabulary and textbook.
5:49 am
the new speaker is expected to bring calm to the chamber, there were lots of accusations underjohn bercow, a divisiveness of. and also a bias. the speaker is supposed to be com pletely the speaker is supposed to be completely independent and neutral, and oversight, like a referee, really. you could argue that perhaps the profile ofjohn bercow was raised because we had a minority government. if we were to have a majority government again, which is perhaps more normal for the majority government again, which is perhaps more normalfor the uk, maybe the role of the speaker would become a little bit less in the limelight. it will be interesting to see a different type of speaker. he has big shoes to fill in a way. john bercow was like marmite, people loved him or hated him. and his international reputation, i think, was huge. indeed. we will give an eye on what he gets up to next. let's talk about this story on the front page of the daily mail. is this the end of smear test? a new
5:50 am
procedure will allow for women tasende of a swab to check for cervical cancer avoiding the ordeal of going to the doctors. it is one of going to the doctors. it is one of my most hated appointments, i have to see. they do not enjoy it at all. that is the problem. the take—up all. that is the problem. the ta ke—up rates all. that is the problem. the take—up rates are at an all—time —— 21 eulo. it is because it can be painful, more painfulfor older women. it is also embarrassing, humiliating. and for some women, depending on their religious beliefs and what have you, it is very difficult for them to pursue that of ointment. this way you can do the test at home, it is a swab or a urine test. it would be your responsibility to take the test yourself and i presume to take it to yourself and i presume to take it to yourgp or put yourself and i presume to take it to your gp or put it in the post. but clearly that would be much more co mforta ble. clearly that would be much more comfortable. i want how reliable it is. i'm sure it is reliable, they would not put this forward as an idea or a new way forward if it
5:51 am
wasn't. but you do wonder if you have got it right, wrong, what day of the month you do it, whether you get that right or wrong. and that might be the issue. the trade—off is that perhaps the take—up rates would be higher. and then think what would happen in this, if the women whose risk -- happen in this, if the women whose risk —— results looked a bit strange they would be called in and then perhaps... they would enjoy the good old fashion to smear test. it is a shiver down my spine. stock market ina shiver down my spine. stock market in a rally no—one saw coming. did no—one see it coming? it certainly is seeing a rally. historic closures iam is seeing a rally. historic closures i am saying every morning, the night before on wall street. if you look at expectations at the start of the year from the at expectations at the start of the yearfrom the big at expectations at the start of the year from the big forecasters, not many had predicted that the stock market would go up. that is logical. if you think about this year we have a slowdown in global growth and we also have earnings not performing in the way that they did. remember the
5:52 am
start of this year it was really gloomy. i was at davos and the international monetary fund, the world bank, many were saying brace yourselves, this will be a bad year and we might see recession for the us and the global economy in 2020. so it began very gloomy. we might see a us recession in 2020. the stock market performance does seem to counter that. we have a demographic in the world, we have so much savings, older people, asian savings. a lot of influences pushing this. let us talk about the fun run, which apparently is really good for your health. i was not surprised to hear this. it reduces the risk significantly of things like heart failure, cancer, diabetes, other serious health issues that many of us are serious health issues that many of us are facing. it reduces the risk ofan us are facing. it reduces the risk of an early death by 27%. it is a
5:53 am
reduced risk of obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, et cetera, may be people who do go running to think more about their health and maybe are eating a healthier diet as well, so there are interlinked issues. and also research shows that what is good for your heart is good for your brain as well. so i think perhaps... and it is good for mental health. it is good for mental health. maybe some people it is not running, but swimming, exercise in general is good for you. walking the dog, fresh air. i don't run, but they have a dog who gets me out every day. jane, thank you very much. willing to have you this morning. i'd just want to mention some of your comments so far today about fast fashion. we are waiting on primer‘s results. so many of you have been in touch —— primark. "i'm proud to say i'm dressed entirely this morning from the charity shop. naturally, i am not a fashion icon." irene says
5:54 am
designer labels don't make lytic clothing anymore and anything labelled as vintage costs more than you. so how do you guys keep your wardrobe stock up? hand—me—downs or new items? for me it is a bit of everything, i have to see. keith says in the same, i don't repair, i just downgrade the close abuse in the garden, washing the car, or fishing. and ian says i found in the past very expensive clothes, looked after each wear, stored properly, they last for ages. they can be timeless. thanks for your comments. it sounds like you are a sustainable lot. well done from that point of view. keep them coming. eye will see you soon. have a lovely day.
5:55 am
hello there. it's been a pretty unsettled start to november. we've seen quite a bit of rainfall in places. however, over the next few days what we'll notice is a change in temperature. it's going to turn much cooler with those winds starting to come down from the north, right from the arctic. and there will also be further rain at times through the week. now, early on tuesday, we start off with quite a bit of cloud across england and wales, most of the showers across the north—east corner. turning dry with clear spells across western scotland and northern ireland, so will be quite chilly here. but further south and east, where we also have lighter winds, we will see temperatures around 7 or 8 degrees and there could be a few mist and fog patches around to start tuesday. 0ur area of low pressure will be retreating south—eastwards into the near continent, allowing those winds to come down from the north. we'll see isobars fairly close together so it'll be breezy across northern and western areas. you can see that arctic air, the blue colour, seeping southwards gradually, sitting noticeable across the northern half of the country during the day. so tuesday morning, we start off with drier weather across scotland and northern ireland. it'll stay rather cloudy across central and eastern parts of england, a few showers around. but it'll also be quite windy as well across the north and the west.
5:56 am
as i mentioned earlier, with those isobars close together, single—figure values in the north, just about double figures in the south, 10—12 degrees. through tuesday night, we'll start to see those clear skies pushing their way southwards and eastwards with most of the showers dying out. those temperatures will fall away, certainly a chilly night to come across northern and western areas, temperatures in towns and cities hovering around freezing to 2 degrees. a chilly start to wednesday. there will be some frost around. a little bit of mist and fog too. looking out west, we've got the next weather system which will be working its way in through wednesday. that will introduce thicker cloud and more outbreaks of rain. but we start off on a chilly note with some frost and sunshine across central and eastern areas. any mist and fog will clear away through the morning, then we'll start to see the thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain pushing into western areas. meanwhile, the sunshine across eastern areas will turn hazier as that frontal system continues to work in from the west. and a chilly day to come for all. 6, 7 degrees in the north, 9 orjust about 10 across the south. as we head into thursday and into friday we hold onto that chilly fell, as you can see those
5:57 am
