our top story. it's president trump's final full day in office today and overnight he's announced that a ban on travellers entering the us from the uk, eu and brazil would be lifted next week. however, president—electjoe biden�*s team immediately said the restrictions will remain. our washington correspondent, nomia iqbal reports. america's capital city is a really quiet, and so is its president. mr trump has been largely silent after twitter permanently banned him. but there is some last—minute business. he announced a covid—19 travel ban on much of europe would be lifted. the incoming biden administration plans to reverse it, though. in a tweet, the incoming press secretary saysin tweet, the incoming press secretary says in fact they will strengthen it. one thing they will not be able to stop art mr trump as much pardons. like all outgoing presidents, he plans to use his last bit of power to grant clemency to more than 100 convicted criminals. this is all against a backdrop of a

city which has turned into a fortress. up to 25,000 troops from the national guard are here, the most since the civil war era. this nation is still reeling from the riots earlier this month. it has emerged that some of them had connections to law enforcement, and now all the inauguration security is being vetted by the army and the fbi. ., , . ., , fbi. one of the bigger challenges will be identifying _ fbi. one of the bigger challenges will be identifying people - fbi. one of the bigger challenges will be identifying people in - fbi. one of the bigger challenges will be identifying people in law l will be identifying people in law enforcement who have sympathies for these groups or act in concert with them. and again law enforcement has all the authority they need, the fbi has jurisdiction to investigate civil rights abuses by law enforcement officers, theyjust need to prioritise that work. president—elect biden will fly into the city for his inauguration at capitol hill, he originally planned to make the trip by train. president trump will not be there, the first time that has happened in more than 150 years. he plans to leave for florida wednesday morning with the first lady who has lived a goodbye

and meeting his vice president elect, kamala harris, who lives ndc, she has been here in with her husband during the pandemic. they are planning to attend a memorial for the nearly 4000 americans who have died with covid—19, that is a private event. he will be crafting that very important inaugural speech. these are always important moments because it sets the tone of what we can expect from him. the american media is reporting that he is really focused on trying to unify such a polarised country. the fact that there are so many armed troops on the ground here in dc, after 25,000 on wednesday expected, is proof of just, 25,000 on wednesday expected, is proof ofjust, the state of america right now and how people feel a state of anxiety as we prepare for a new president to come in. in terms of president trump, he has been quiet. we tend to get schedules of

what he's up to, but nothing on there so far. he not staying for the inauguration are not planning to treat the bidens either. we believe achieve a share of the white house is planning to meet both resident elect biden and his wife doctorjill biden. —— president—elect biden. the pandemic has created a backlog of court cases which could damage the criminal justice system for years. that's a warning from the inspectorates for policing, prisons, probation and prosecutions. the four criminal service watchdogs for england and wales say they have "grave concerns" after figures revealed there are now 54,000 crown court cases waiting to be heard. mps will question the chief inspector of probation services later today. six conservative mps have backed a labour call for the government to keep the universal credit top—up in place. the commons motion, which passed by 278 votes, was non—binding but it may increase pressure on the prime minister to continue the extra payment of £20

a week beyond the end of march. our political correspondent chris mason has the details. the ayes to the right, 278. the nos to the left, nil. last night's vote sounded definitive but actually, it doesn't change anything. it doesn't change government policy, it doesn't change or remove the political reality for ministers that soon they will have to decide what to do next. around 6 million people in the uk receive universal credit, a figure that has doubled during the pandemic. people who get it were given an extra £20 per week, that's a little over £1000 per year, because of the coronavirus. but that uplift is due to expire at the end of march. a mistake according to a conservative mp who used to be work and pensions secretary. we forget that more than a third of all universal credit claimants are working. they are the workers we support.

and the truth is that the labour market is a horrible place right now for many people. opportunities for people to find new work, to increase their hours, boost their earnings, improve their family finances has been massively curtailed. five other conservative mps also voted with labour last night, and plenty more are privately nervous about making poor people poorer. as for labour, they say... this cut shatters the confidence of those who are far more likely to spend than those who are better off. the government is still working out what to do. given the evolving nature of this pandemic, it is right that we wait until the budget to make future tax and welfare decisions. the chancellor has a budget at the beginning of march, just weeks before the universal credit uplift expires. what he and the prime minister choose to do next will have big

consequences for government spending and for the lives of millions of people. chris mason, bbc news, at westminster. campaigners say that around 75,000 self—employed women have lost out on financial support during the pandemic because they've had a baby in the last four years. they're taking the government to court on thursday claiming the way the self—employed income support scheme is calculated using average profits between 2016 and 2019 penalises women who've taken maternity leave during that time. the government insists the scheme is fair. it is eight minutes past six. we are talking about this morning, we are getting updates throughout the day from matt, is the flooding. flood warnings are in place for parts of north, east and central england as storm christoph looms. our reporter luxmy gopal is in hebden bridge, in west yorkshire, where preparing

flood defences has become all too familiar. good morning. as you can see behind me, from the fact that there are flood gates installed appear, people here in hebden bridge in west yorkshire are used to flooding, they have had it before. there have been three major floods, have had it before. there have been three majorfloods, 2012, 2015 and last year. they know full well the impact of potential flooding and what might be to come as as a result of the weather warnings in place due to storm christoph. i was speaking to storm christoph. i was speaking to people yesterday who were preparing their homes and businesses for the potential impact of flooding, putting up floodgate and putting out sandbags, and moving furniture and equipment upstairs. there is a flood alert here in hebden bridge and there are dozens in place across northern, central and eastern england. where we have had recent snowfall in this part of

the country and recent rain, with that snow having mail said —— melted, the ground is saturated and river areas are high so catchment areas cannot do the job they can do usually and there is a high risk of flooding. in south yorkshire there is a major incident as they are preparing for the impact of flooding. and they are used to the impact of big flooding from what happened 11 months ago, i went to speak to them yesterday. the devastating flooding that ruined countless homes and livelihoods last february will be fresh in the minds of people in parts of england braced for severe weather in the coming hours and days. it for severe weather in the coming hours and days.— hours and days. it rose up to the to - , hours and days. it rose up to the ten. came _ hours and days. it rose up to the ten. came over _ hours and days. it rose up to the top, came over the _ hours and days. it rose up to the top, came over the top, - hours and days. it rose up to the top, came over the top, it - hours and days. it rose up to the top, came over the top, it fills . hours and days. it rose up to the i top, came over the top, it fills the pubs, and it absolutely destroyed all the shops you see now. b, all the shops you see now. a residence in hebden bridge, which has had three major floods residence in hebden bridge, which has had three majorfloods in nine years, it is part of life but it

need arises. people here in hebden bridge, is across england, will be watching the river levels and the rainfall because it is forecast to continue with heavy rain in the coming hours and days and they are being told to keep an eye on any flood warnings that come through from the environment agency. thank you very much. let us go to mats for the forecast. good morning. it will be the persistence of the rain rather than the intensity which causes issues, because of the saturated ground. there is an amber warning in place from the met office, these are the areas where flooding is most likely over the next couple of days. that warning is valid until thursday but beyond that we could see river levels continue to write off the back of what is about to fall. ——

continue to rise. we have seen heavy rain across the south, surface water here, or dry day to come here but fairly breezy. northern ireland, north of england and north—west wales, and southern scotland, the rain persisting through the day. this could be the boundary line between colder heirs, —5 at the moment here, but brighter weather here but milder conditions further south where we will see the stronger wind, touching gale force at times, may be 50 miles an hour in southern and western coastal areas. through tonight to the rain will come and 90, tonight to the rain will come and go, most persistent in the western pennines into west wales, rain across the southern scotland which gradually turns into snow tomorrow morning, snow in eastern scotland with a chilly start. that will become an issue into wednesday but still rain falling across northern england, north and west wales and rain in the south as well. a big

split in temperatures and it gets even more interesting later in the week, details later on. let's take a look at some of today's front pages. the daily telegraph reports that scientific advisers to the government are concerned that millions of people will ignore covid restrictions once they have been vaccinated. the paper says they're urging ministers to begin a public awareness campaign about sticking to the rules. the times is also leading on a vaccination story. it says that vaccine supplies in england will be diverted to the areas which are lagging behind so that over—80s who have not yet received their first dose can be prioritised. "smart motorways condemned as death traps". that's the daily mail headline following an inquest into the deaths of two men on the m1 in 2019. the coroner in that case has suggested that smart motorways, where the hard shoulder can be used as a lane, should be subject to a safety review. and this lockdown may feel different to the others in many ways but some

here talking about the dire straits hospitality is in? and with tiny margins the support they've beeen promised has been fundamental to survival. it's a complicated picture, but we're talking about the support that was offered in october for businesses in tiers 2 and 3 which remained open, but were severely impacted by local rules. things like moving to takeaway only. only serving alcohol with substantial meals. a grant was available of up to £1,050 for each 14—day period, and they were to be backdated to august. but breakfast has seen a letter sent to the government from the trade body uk hospitality. it says fewer than half of local councils have begun paying out these grants. it claims some have not even given details of how to apply yet. others are applying their own tests for eligibility. the wait — they say — is "simply unacceptable". there is also an issue with the christmas support payment, the one—off chunk of £1,000 for "wet led" pubs — those in tier 2 and 3 which get less than half of their income from food.

the british beer and pub association told us three quarters are still waiting for this cash, and some are desperately checking their bank accounts every day. we spoke to anthony, who runs a group of pubs and is having to navigate different councils to get the cash he's entitled to. he's already had to let 70 staff go, and doesn't want that numberto go up. we have been paid £11,000 out of a possible 84,000 for our small businesses. those grants would pay for things like utilities, electricity bills, for ongoing costs to the business even though they are closed. and most importantly costs that are associated to the furlough scheme that the business still has to pay like pensions, and holiday pat’- to pay like pensions, and holiday pay. but with zero revenue coming in, we need to keep money in the business to keep paying those costs and keep the self employed, so this is about protecting jobs now. the

grants themselves have been hard to get hold of because firstly, they were seeded down to the local authorities and each local authority has a different way of applying for it. and in the majority of cases, we are finding those application processes are still not open to this day and we are still owed money going back to october, let alone the christmas and january grants that should be available to us now. lots of the problems seem to be with the local tier 2 and 3 payments from last year, rather than the payments for the full england—wide lockdowns, which are more straightforward. the local government association — which represents english councils — says councils are all working as fast as they can, but that with different schemes applying different criteria, it isn't easy. the letter we've seen is calling for a simplicity, a factsheet on who is eligible. data on what has been paid out. amd a two—week target between schemes being announced and applications opening. without it, well, they say some pubs will not survive.

i think this is a matter of survivability for many of these businesses. one in five of our businesses. one in five of our businesses do not have cash to get through beyond the end of february. so any delay that happens to payments that were due october, november, january and december, means that they are running out of cash at a rate of knots. the sector as a whole is burning through half £1 billion of cash to remain in business while they are close. there is no excuse for not automating the process. the best examples they have got from councils has written to businesses and told them they are eligible for the grant and made the payment automatically, that's what we need to stay as a standard throughout the country. worth remembering, of course, that this is only the situation in england — there are similar, but different, grant schemes elsewhere in the uk, although as yet, we haven't heard of similar problems. do let us know if that is not the case where you are. the government business department told us they are working closely with local councils. they also stressed there are 314

local authorities across the england region and they are all doing things differently, but lots of schemes are working well and it is right that these decisions are made locally. what uk hospitality is saying is that it what uk hospitality is saying is thatitis what uk hospitality is saying is that it is not fair, in some areas, london for example, you cannot even begin to apply for these monies, all the way to august, and it is a bit like when you run your household finances, you work with what you think is coming in and when that doesn't come in, you are stressed out. news, travel and weather coming in, later, and later we are talking to glenn hoddle, i asked my parents to change my name to glenn hoddle later and he is coming up. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. new figures show london's population could have fallen by 700,000 people since the start of the pandemic.

it's thought that most of those moving were eu nationals who left the uk after losing theirjobs, particularly those working in the hospitality sector. the research by the economic statistics centre of excellence found many foreign students also moved home when universities and colleges closed. temporary mortuaries are reopening to help cope with the high death toll during this second wave of the pandemic. one service based within luton central mosque has told the bbc numbers coming in daily now mirror what they would have had weekly before the pandemic. you know, we're getting a minimum of two to three, as an average flow, per day. but we have an enormous amount of volunteers, who are absolutely heroes in my eyes, to be honest. the way that we deal with any deceased is that we treat them like they were our own. a campaign is under way

to save stables in west london that help disabled people and those with mental health challenges. park lane stables in teddington says its been told its lease cannot be renewed as the landlord wants to sell the property. it needs to raise £1 million to buy the stables. so far, more than £100,000 has been pledged through crowdfunding. the horses absolutely need the exercise just as much as the humans, and for the same reason, actually. for their physical and their mental health. and it's very rare that you get something like this in london so while we have things like this still, we need to make sure that we are preserving them. well, the landlord has said he is committed to exploring a resolution for the benefit of all parties. let's take a quick look at the situation on the tubes. generally a good service, but the overground is part suspended between edmonton green and cheshunt because of a points failure at cheshunt. there's also the ongoing closure of the waterloo & city line. on to the weather then with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a very mild start this morning.

we start the day around ten celsius. so certainly much milder than it has been recently. storm christoph has brought some heavy rain overnight, and it's going to continue as we head through the next couple of days. it is a bit drier this morning. the first band of heavy rain has cleared, but strong winds, 35 to 45mph gusts, and showers blowing through this afternoon. temperatures reaching a maximum, a mild 12 celsius. we hang on to the mild air overnight. further showers moving through. and from midnight, the met office has a yellow weather warning in place for heavy rain. that lasts through to thursday lunchtime. these showers will continue to blow through, through to dawn tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature is going to drop at around nine celsius. now it is going to be another wet day for wednesday. of course, the rain falling on already saturated ground, could lead to localised flooding in one or two spots. the temperature, however, mild. and a slightly drier day as we head through thursday. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. plenty more on our website,

remind — think that is the case. i'd like to remind everybody that once you have had your— remind everybody that once you have had your vaccination it can take two or three _ had your vaccination it can take two or three weeks for immunity to build up. or three weeks for immunity to build up you _ or three weeks for immunity to build up you still— or three weeks for immunity to build up. you still have to be incredibly careful— up. you still have to be incredibly careful for— up. you still have to be incredibly careful for yourself. also, we don't know— careful for yourself. also, we don't know yet— careful for yourself. also, we don't know yet whether the vaccination prevents — know yet whether the vaccination prevents you transmitting it to other— prevents you transmitting it to other people. so we still need to follow— other people. so we still need to follow all— other people. so we still need to follow all of those measures. hand washing, _ follow all of those measures. hand washing, facemasks. untilwe have much _ washing, facemasks. untilwe have much clearer data on transmission, or until— much clearer data on transmission, or until we — much clearer data on transmission, or until we have a much greater proportion— or until we have a much greater proportion of the population vaccinated. dr proportion of the population vaccinated.— proportion of the population vaccinated. , . . ~ vaccinated. dr ollie canning, thank ou as vaccinated. dr ollie canning, thank you as ever— vaccinated. dr ollie canning, thank you as ever for— vaccinated. dr ollie canning, thank you as ever for your _ vaccinated. dr ollie canning, thank you as ever for your time. - you as everfor your time. sally is in the studio. good morning. reflecting on another arsenal win? yeah. a great, great time for arsenal. we are all missing hugs. again we are seeing footballers celebrating by hugging each other. it seems the temptation to celebrate is still too much for most footballers. since the covid—19 protocols were reinforced, we've seen some effort. but there was no restraint last night, when arsenal

beat newcastle 3—0. captain pierre emerick aubameyang scored twice, and the restrictions on handshakes, high fives and hugging were forgotten. arsenal are into the premier league's top ten, but newcastle haven't won a game for over a month. celtic�*s manager neil lennon has reacted furiously to more questions about the club's training trip to dubai. he said the decision to force him and 13 players to self—isolate after one positive coronavirus test, was motivated by politics and not public health. and now a further player has tested positive. we did not abuse any privilege. we did the right things. we were absolutely totally professional. we had a little drink in the afternoon on a day off, completely allowed, no law breaking. yet now we come back to this barrage of absolute hypocrisy.

phil neville starts life as a manager in miami today, after leaving his position as england women's manager to become head coach of david beckham's new team. inter miami finished tenth in theirfirst season as an mls club. nevillejoins them ahead of the new campaign, but leaving the lionesses earlier than planned means he won't lead the gb women's team at this summer's olympic games. some of the 72 players in strict quarantine ahead of the australian open are getting used to being confined to their hotel room. there are still rumblings of discontentment though, and former champion victoria azarenka has posted a lengthy statement on social media, saying: "i understand all the frustration and unfairness that has been coming and it is overwhelming. the organisers say most players now

accept the situation. these are high performing athletes. it is hard to keep a high performing athlete in the room. but as i said, the vast majority, most of them have been fantastic and been supportive, and now this is the contribution they have to make in order to get they have to make in order to get the privilege, when they do come out, to compete for $80 million in prize money for three weeks. we will turn the corner on those few that don't have the right approach to this, but the rest have been really good. as liverpool captain jordan henderson has led his team to premier league and champions league glory. now he has a new title. he's been named as the official champion of nhs charities together for his work during the pandemic. i spoke to him recently, for an exclusive chat about why he wants to be involved. jordan henderson, hello. hi, sally. you have been announced as the nhs

charities together champion. why was it so important for you to get involved? well, it's a huge honourfor me to be asked to do it, to support the nhs, especially at this time. and if i can help in any way, and support them in any way, i think that's the least i can do, really. so it means an awful lot to me and my family as well. and i know that you have a family connection in the nhs, don't you? and you have seen at first hand how tough things have been. yeah. so i spoke to my cousin stephanie a couple of weeks ago again. and you don't need me to tell you how tough it must be for them at this moment in time, not only dealing with the pandemic and covid, but everything else on top of that, treatment and stuff for other things. and because they're overwhelmed, it's hard for them to be able to do that at the level that they maybe would have done a year ago, which then people get frustrated. there's a lot for them to deal with, you know.

do you ever worry for their welfare, their health, you know, being so involved in what's going on at the moment? everybody will worry. you know, ithink, erm... ..you never expect something like this to happen. you know, i've said it before, you probably only see this in movies. but for the nhs, that is dealing with a situation that that is now, but it's also afterwards, when things do return to normal and what they may suffer mentally, we can't let that happen because of the work they've been doing really for everyone. and i'm sure a lot of us look up to them. i certainly do. an incredible job they're doing, and i don't think i could do it, you know. some of the stuff that i hear and what they go through, for the families to say goodbye to each other on an ipad and things like that, is pretty tough. so, hats off to them. and then again, this is why the least i can do is try and support them as much as possible. and everybody needs to try and protect them as much as possible over the next few months. what practical things do you think

you could do to help nhs staff? i know at the moment you can't go into hospitals and offer your support in that way. yeah, in the end, that's the aim, to be able to go in to different hospitals and show me support that we can speak to them face to face. after speaking to me cousin, you know, the boost that that gives them, erm, to know that people are supporting them, people are behind them, because at the end of the day, it's probably the biggest crisis the nhs have had to deal with. i look back to when my dad was ill a few years ago, and the amazing work they've done with him and without them, he probably wouldn't be here today. you mentioned your dad there. obviously, lots of people will remember the brilliant pictures of you and your dad hugging after the champions league final. what's life been like for you and him? have you been able to see him, or is he shielding? well, he's high risk, obviously, especially at the start, he was shielding for a long time. so there's a long period of time where i couldn't see him and obviously, he couldn't see the grandkids. again, that's the

season for everyone. it's really difficult over the past, well, nearly a year now, isn't it? ten, 11 months. it's been difficult for everyone. so, yeah, hopefully over the next few months the vaccine can start working and we can start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. what would you say to that big team of people now this who are getting ready to, you know, give those vaccines out? you know, you're team captain, captain of the premier league champions, what would be your team talk to them? you've put us on the spot there a little bit! normally i like to prepare a little bit of something. sorry! no, i think they've got the support of everybody across the uk, you know, and obviously we're right behind them. we thank them for everything that they're doing and they've done for us over the past year. one of the messages that i know you have been keen to put across is that it's important at this point to try and protect the nhs, and for people to take individual responsibility for looking after themselves.

i think you're spot on. you know, i think mentally, i think to be able to just do a little bit of exercise in the garden, or go for a walk or do stuff in the house, whatever it may be, just because i think that physical aspect, once you've had that physical activity, mentally, you just feel a little bit better and fresher. the likes ofjoe wicks, you know, i think that what he's doing is amazing, with the stuff the kids can follow on the telly and just get them a little bit active, because obviously they're not going to school at the minute. so it's little things like that that keep people going. and as much as that... ..the more that we can do, the better for everyone, really. football has come under the spotlight because of goal celebrations — hugging, you know, pile—ons. what your take on that situation? if we're being asked to try and control that, then we need to try our best to do that, and we do respect the rules. but yeah, if we're asked

to do stuff, then we need to try our best to do it. even though it can be difficult in the heat of the game. jordan, i know you're a very busy man. i'm going to let you get back to home schooling, which i know you're particularly enjoying. i'm surprised they haven't come running in, actually, so...! yeah, we've done well. it's tough though, isn't it? it's tough? yeah, it is, it is tough. you know, i think to be fair, a lot of the time they're learning me, you know, they're asking me questions. no, it's give them some structure as well. it's hard for them socially. again, for children, it's so difficult not having that social aspect of seeing other people and, erm... but kids cope with it better than adults. i think, you know. they get on with it, they do their home schooling and they're always smiling. so it's a breath of fresh air for me to be able to do that, really. jordan, thank you very much indeed. thanks very much, sally. thank you. jordan henderson there on his plans to help the people who are on the front line in the nhs in care homes

affected by rain, hebden bridge, we are going to be there live later on. it's been a bumpy start to the year for schools, which are now having to juggle remote learning, social distancing and covid testing, among many other pressures. now the dust has settled, somewhat, breakfast'sjohn maguire has been speaking to three head teachers from different schools to see how they are coping. headteachers wear many hats. finance, maintenance, personnel — and now, mass covid testing. once we go over the bombshell of having to pull this together by the start of term, it has gone remarkably well. not without its challenges, which actually for us meant that we've converted two of our geography classrooms into testing stations. so once we've done that, and we've got the training and we've identified the staff, we're now in a position to do the testing. evelyn forde is an award—winning headteacher of a secondary school in london.

on your whiteboard, if you can, can you show me the first stage? few, if any, of us have been unscathed by the pandemic. but education has been turned on its head over and over again. what we're being asked to do is, you know, above and beyond, and not something that, you know, when we're training to be teachers and all of that. it's about that interaction with young people, that face to face. and now we've shifted to online lessons, which comes with its challenges. and i think there needs to be a recognition of that, and an acceptance that, you know, we are doing an amazing job under extenuating circumstances. a smaller and rural school, but no less frenetic, staff, pupils and parents at this primary in oxfordshire are getting into the swing of a new term after the tumultuous start all schools experienced. now, we just need a little bit

of calm, just to settle down and get things running smoothly, really, for a week, to let everybody's nerves settle down a little bit. i think the stress at the end of the christmas holiday, that final weekend, that enormous turbulence of the sunday and the monday. i wrote to all the parents, gave them the news. and then, of course, the staff spent the rest of the afternoon setting up for full opening the next day, went home. parents put their children to bed, bathed, with their uniform set out on the chair, ready for the morning. and of course, at eight o'clock, it all changed. so that was a huge roller—coaster ride for everybody. there are a lot more pupils in class than during the first lockdown, but here, they believe that's a positive. we've got 40% of our children in now. but there are upsides to that. i mean, one of the massive upsides is that one of the reasons it's high, is because we have got all our vulnerable children in this time, whereas last time we struggled to do that, they were much more nervous, much more reluctant to attend.

so we've got that trust now and we've got them in. so that means that we know they're all safe. we know children who struggled to access the online learning last time, we've got them in, we're giving them all a hot meal every day. so, you know, that that is a huge weight of staff's mind, actually, to know that we've got these children. lockdowns have fuelled greater inequality. for many pupils at this school in south wales, access to computers or to the internet is a very real problem. the school has around a thousand pupils and has given out more than 450 devices to help. for me, having an appropriate device was ideally a laptop, or a tablet that allowed them to access and work on it. a telephone isn't an appropriate device. but it is a constant challenge because lots of families' circumstances change, the money coming into households change. that's notjust a challenge for my families, but it's a challenge for lots of families. so we keep those lines of communication open all of the time. and that's something i'm really

proud of what we've achieved. and continuing uncertainty over exams is another major concern. it does feel incredibly strange at this moment in time, to be the headteacher of a school, and ultimately a teacher, that we have children, over 125 children, who are sitting examinations, or are going to be having their results in the summer, through an assessment system that we don't actually know what it is, which, if we just go back even a year ago, two years ago, we would laugh at that. dealing with the constant problems this pandemic creates is very difficult. some say school days are the best of your life, but these are days most are longing to see the back of. john maguire, bbc news. that head teacher making a good

but we have an enormous amount of volunteers, who are absolutely heroes in my eyes, to be honest. the way that we deal with any deceased is that we treat them like they were our own. a campaign is under way to save stables in west london that help disabled people and those with mental health challenges. park lane stables in teddington says its been told its lease can't be renewed as the landlord wants to sell the property. it needs to raise £1 million to buy the stables. so far more than £100,000 has been pledged through crowdfunding. the horses absolutely need the exercise just as much as the humans, and for the same reason, actually. for their physical and their mental health. and it's very rare that you get something like this in london so while we have things like this still, we need to make sure that we are preserving them. well, the landlord has said he's committed to exploring a resolution for the benefit of all parties. let's take a quick look

at the situation on the tubes. generally a good service but the overground is part suspended between edmonton green and cheshunt because of a points failure at cheshunt. there's also the ongoing closure of the waterloo & city line. on to the weather then with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a very mild start this morning. we start the day around ten celsius. so certainly much milder than it has been recently. storm christoph has brought some heavy rain overnight, and it's going to continue as we head through the next couple of days. it is a bit drier this morning. the first band of heavy rain has cleared, but strong winds, 35 to 45mph gusts, and showers blowing through this afternoon. temperatures reaching a maximum, a mild 12 celsius. we hang on to the mild air overnight. further showers moving through. and from midnight, the met office has a yellow weather warning in place for heavy rain. that lasts through to thursday lunchtime. these showers will continue to blow through, through to dawn tomorrow morning.

the minimum temperature is going to drop at around nine celsius. now it is going to be another wet day for wednesday. of course, the rain falling on already saturated ground, could lead to localised flooding in one or two spots. the temperature, however, mild. and a slightly drier day as we head through thursday. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. plenty more on our website, facebook and instagram. now though it's back to louise and dan. bye for now.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. our headlines today. on his last full day as president, donald trump orders travel restrictions on the uk and the eu to be lifted. butjoe biden says it's too late and the bans will stay. storm christoph brings danger to life flood warnings with snow also expected. in the short term it is going to be the persistence of the rain that is the persistence of the rain that is the main issue leading to flooding, i will have the full forecast later. footballers are still struggling to comply with covid—19 protocols. arsenal's victory over newcastle takes them into the premier league's top ten and despite all the warnings, the hugging continues. it's tuesday the 19th of january.

our top story. it's president trump's final full day in office today and overnight he's announced that a ban on travellers entering the us from the uk, eu and brazil would be lifted next week. however, president—electjoe biden's team immediately said the restrictions will remain. our washington correspondent nomia iqbal can tell us more. good to speak to you. i suppose the question is, how significant a disagreement is this over that travel ban? it’s disagreement is this over that travel ban?— travel ban? it's not very significant _ travel ban? it's not very significant to _ travel ban? it's not very significant to be - travel ban? it's not very significant to be honest| travel ban? it's not very - significant to be honest because president trump will be out of office soon and joe biden has always made covid—19 and tackling it the centrepiece of his administration, so the reaction by his team to what mr trump was planning to do was not surprising. it was pretty swift, and pretty tough, they said that if anything, they would strengthen those restrictions. preparation is

getting under way for the incoming president, joe biden is expected to arrive in washington later this morning. usually he takes a train everywhere, he is known as amtrak joe, he lives in the nearby state of delaware, takes about an hour and have to get into dc by train. because of the huge security concerns here, he will be arriving by plane. he is expected to meet the vice president elect kamala harris who lives here in dc with her husband. they then attend a memorial for the victims of covid—19, 400,000 people have died with the disease. also there is the big inaugural speech he will be working on, we hear reports that he plans to focus on unifying this country because of course it is so polarised. as far as president trump goes, he has been keeping a pretty low profile ever since he was kicked off twitter,

apart from we heard about this covid—19 travel restriction, his wife, the first lady, melania trump, has released a farewell video. we have heard suggestions that mr trump might do the same. we know for sure that both of them don't plan to stick around for the inauguration, thatis stick around for the inauguration, that is the first time this has happened in more than 150 years. on wednesday morning, hours beforejoe biden becomes president, mr trump and his wife will be on a plane to their home state of florida. thank ou ve their home state of florida. thank you very much _ their home state of florida. thank you very much for _ their home state of florida. thank you very much for that. _ the pandemic has created a backlog of court cases which could damage the criminal justice system for years. that's a warning from the inspectorates for policing, prisons, probation and prosecutions. the four criminal service watchdogs for england and wales say they have "grave concerns" after figures revealed there are now 54,000 crown court cases waiting to be heard. mps will question the chief inspector of probation services later today. flood warnings are in place

for parts of north, east and central england as storm christoph looms. our reporter luxmy gopal is in hebden bridge, in west yorkshire, where preparing flood defences has become all too familiar. good morning, as you can see, people here in hebden bridge spent yesterday putting up the floodgates on their businesses and moving their valuables and their furniture upstairs is the council told them to do everything they could to protect themselves and their properties against the impact of storm christoph. there is a flood alert here, and there are more than 100 flood alerts and warnings across parts of central, eastern and northern england, and yellow weather warnings in a place in northern ireland, wales and southern scotland. the met office says there is potential danger to life for fast flowing flood and warned that some communities could be cut off

completely by flooded roads. the reason for the increased risk for flooding is the recent snowfall which has melted and saturated the ground and river levels are already high, combine it with the heavy rainfall which is forecast to continue over the next couple of days and you have the perfect storm. south yorkshire has already declared a major incident and the environment agency says that it is putting into place preparations for covid—safe rest centres so people who need to leave their homes if they are evacuated have somewhere to go. the warning is to keep an eye on flood alerts and warnings because there is alerts and warnings because there is a risk that the number will increase as the heavy rain continues to this morning. we will be getting the weather later, thank you. six conservative mps have backed labour's call for the government to keep the universal credit top—up worth £20 a week in place after the end of march. they'd been ordered to abstain but broke ranks, and the motion passed by 278 votes to none. our chief political correspondent adam fleming is in westminster.

good morning. we know from yesterday, this was a non—binding vote, so what impact could it have a government policy?— government policy? hello, you two. the action has _ government policy? hello, you two. the action has moved _ government policy? hello, you two. the action has moved from - government policy? hello, you two. the action has moved from the - government policy? hello, you two. i the action has moved from the house of commons to government departments because the prime minister, chancellor and work and pensions secretary are looking at what you could replace the £20 per week boost to universal credit with, and there are loads of options on the table. some people say as many as 14 different versions of what you could do. things like, do you do a one—off payment to people? is it a small payment to people? is it a small payment or a big payment? and is it more often than one off, and what you do about people who were not getting universal credit before but then go on to it later and miss out? do you continue it for a temporary period but then there is a question about how long you extend that £20 for, or do you have a gradual

withdrawal or a taper? so they are still at the early stages of sketching out the options and the pros and cons of each one. it does show you, we have moved from a world of, if this £20 per week continues to a world of, what do you replace it with? labour would say that schiff has only happened because of pressure applied by them —— that shift has only happened. because of the parliamentary debate yesterday. the government has said that they would only do what is better people in the pandemic and it depends on what happens with the virus. and what happens with the virus. and there is another potential issue with the government today over china? ., . , , , china? potentially, this is the trade bill which _ china? potentially, this is the trade bill which gives - china? potentially, this is the trade bill which gives the - trade bill which gives the government to the tools to have an independent trade policy and do trade deals. now that it is out of the eu. the house of lords added an extra bits to it that would give the high courts the power to rule that a foreign country had engaged in genocide, in other words, trying to wipe out group of people, and then the high court could basically

cancel the trade deal that the uk had done with that country. a lot of conservative mps think there is a goodidea conservative mps think there is a good idea because that could help put pressure on the chinese government over its treatment of the migratory people. the government said it is not such a good idea because the —— of the uigher people. the government says there is no prospect of there being a trade deal with china in the next few years and they say, what is the point of taking back control of trade policy from the eu if you then have to share it with a high court who could cause all sorts of diplomatic problems for the government? very technical and complicated but to me, an amazing example of what happens after brexit. the government thinks it's getting all this power but it turns out it has to share it. bier? turns out it has to share it. very interesting. _ turns out it has to share it. very interesting, thank _ turns out it has to share it. very interesting, thank you. - campaigners say that around 75,000 self—employed women have lost out on financial support during the pandemic because they've had a baby in the last four years.

they're taking the government to court on thursday claiming the way the self—employed income support scheme is calculated using average profits between 2016 and 2019 penalises women who've taken maternity leave during that time. the government insists the scheme is fair. it is ten minutes past seven, tuesday morning. you are going to hear a lot of the name of storm christoph in the next few days, that storm on the way. yes, it is, named because of rain filled rather than the strength of the wind. —— rainfall rather than the wind. —— rainfall rather than the strength of the wind. this is the strength of the wind. this is the flooding that has already happened in east yorkshire, and that is before all of the rain coming into courtesy of storm christoph in the next few days. so there is a met office and the weather warning in northern england, and the midlands,

flooding likely and travel disruption possible as well. anyone from northern ireland, southern scotland across england and wales could see minor flooding that the amber warning shows it is more likely, through lancashire and the dales. in the southern areas, it is more going to be the reverse building up. but keep an eye on the flood warnings on the bbc website. the rain is persistent today in this area, where there will be some flooding to begin with, certainly on the hills towards the west. further outbreaks of rain towards the western half of the uk but it is mild, strong and gusty winds in the south. north of that belt of rain, not a bad day, temperatures well below freezing at the moment but plenty of sunshine and only a few showers. this evening and overnight, the rain pushes to southern scotland and turned into snow as it interacts

with cold air on the southern uplands. the heaviest of persistent rain is to the hill to the west of england. another mild night in the south. tomorrow the rain is still falling through parts of north—west england, west and wales especially. turning to sleet and snow across eastern parts of scotland as we go through tomorrow. a brighter day for northern ireland, eventually the colder air across scotland and northern ireland will win out, the rain will push through, strong winds at time for england and wales. and as we go into thursday we could see blizzards in eastern scotland. i will have a full weather update just before 8am. let's return to our top story now. this morning marks president trump's final full day in office after one of the most turbulent terms of office in american history. our correspondent paul adams takes a look back at four years which were divisive but rarely dull.

a proud, straight talking bulldozer to his fans, a vulgar, dangerous showman to his enemies. donald trump has been a president like no other, a billionaire businessman launching a hostile takeover of american politics. from this day forward, it's going to be only america first. nor has he mellowed in office. his relentless, frequently savage use of twitter has upended the rules on presidential communication. at home, he inherited a booming economy, and for the first three years, added millions ofjobs. so help me god. congratulations. his successful appointment of three conservative judges to the supreme court will probably go down as his most enduring achievement. but under his presidency, america's divides seem to have deepened. during last summer's black lives matter protests, the president was uncompromising.

abroad, he withdrew from the iran nuclear deal, moved the us embassy in israel tojerusalem, and indulged in a war of words with the leader of north korea. rocket man should have been handled a long time ago. later, the two men met for an extraordinary peace summit, although little came of it. he has appalled fellow western leaders over his approach to trade, alliances and the war in syria. and he's always seemed to favour autocrats over democrats. allegations that he pressured ukraine to dig up dirt on his rival joe biden led to his impeachment. republicans stood by their man and the president was acquitted. his final year in office was dominated by coronavirus. the president tried to play it down but his handling of the crisis hurt him in the polls. when election day came, 74 million americans voted for the president, but it wasn't enough. joe biden did even better.

donald trump launched a furious attack on the democratic process, claiming the election was stolen. this is a majorfraud on our nation. after weeks of incitements, the president's ardent followers stormed into congress, causing death and mayhem. the president was forced to condemn it but furious democrats launched impeachment proceedings for an unprecedented second time. with a second trial looming, donald trump says he won't be around to see his successor sworn in, an ignominious end to a vivid, divisive, extraordinary presidency. paul adams, bbc news. let's speak to two americans on either side of the political divide now. clarkejudge is a former speech writer for president reagan and celinda lake worked onjoe biden's campaign. good morning to both, thank you joining us. even now, president

potential fraud, reasons to question the fraud, or potentialfraud, but it reasons to question the fraud, or potential fraud, but it was too little, too late. his concerns should have been aired a year, two years ago, three years ago. when the democrats started trying to open the mail voting and other kinds of loosening of voter id laws, and that sort of thing. loosening of voter id laws, and that sort of thing-— sort of thing. when you, obviously clark is talking _ sort of thing. when you, obviously clark is talking about _ sort of thing. when you, obviously clark is talking about the - sort of thing. when you, obviously clark is talking about the last - sort of thing. when you, obviously clark is talking about the last fewl clark is talking about the last few weeks, there has been a lot of attention on that and the inauguration this week, when you look back over the last four years, even when you are the other side of the political divide, are you able to say that things that he has done well, things that you will look back on and say that they are changes that have been positive in america? i think that it's very hard to do that— i think that it's very hard to do that right _ i think that it's very hard to do that right now, because of the travesty— that right now, because of the travesty of the ending of his administration and the division that

strongest economy since the 1990s, and we had the balance of growth, it was, in incomes, was to the lower end of the income scale rather than the higher end, as there had been in the higher end, as there had been in the prior two administrations. that was an important corrective in our policies. was an important corrective in our olicies. , ., , ., policies. sorry to interrupt you, do ou think policies. sorry to interrupt you, do you think people — policies. sorry to interrupt you, do you think people will— policies. sorry to interrupt you, do you think people will remember. policies. sorry to interrupt you, do i you think people will remember that, or will the things that have been on the front page and every page of the newspaper on occasion, the fact that he updated his social media account every day and it was in regular communication with the american people and the rest of the world, do you think that is what we will focus on in the years to come?— on in the years to come? some of that isn't a _ on in the years to come? some of that isn't a bad _ on in the years to come? some of that isn't a bad thing. _ on in the years to come? some of that isn't a bad thing. the - on in the years to come? some of that isn't a bad thing. the use - on in the years to come? some of that isn't a bad thing. the use of. that isn't a bad thing. the use of twitter, but direct communications, was something that had begun actually under mr obama. in a sense that it social media had come on and it was to some extent pushing out

have to think about what is going on there, think about where you would put your pets, and move your car into an area which is not at flood risk. there are things we can do and the help out there is about encouraging you to prepare. it's usually once the floods are here that we then start seeing the emergency services. is it that we then start seeing the emergency services. is it right to sa ou emergency services. is it right to say you have _ emergency services. is it right to say you have been _ emergency services. is it right to say you have been flooded - emergency services. is it right to say you have been flooded fouri emergency services. is it right to - say you have been flooded four times before in shrewsbury? yes. say you have been flooded four times before in shrewsbury?— before in shrewsbury? yes, i frequently — before in shrewsbury? yes, i frequently flood. _ before in shrewsbury? yes, i frequently flood. just - before in shrewsbury? yes, i| frequently flood. just recently before in shrewsbury? yes, i. frequently flood. just recently i flooded in storm care and storm dennis, before that it was 20 years. itjust dennis, before that it was 20 years. it just shows you dennis, before that it was 20 years. itjust shows you that dennis, before that it was 20 years. it just shows you that sometimes you think that you will never flood again but it is always there. once you are at risk, you are always at risk. in terms of the practical risk, moving your valuables,. things

morning. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. new figures show london's population could have fallen by 700,000 people since the start of the pandemic. it's thought that most were eu nationals who left after losing theirjobs, particularly those working in the hospitality sector. the research by the economic statistics centre of excellence found many foreign students also moved when universities and colleges closed. temporary mortuaries are reopening to help cope with the high death toll of this wave of the pandemic. one service based within luton central mosque has told the bbc numbers coming in daily now mirror what they would have had weekly before the pandemic. you know, we're getting a minimum of two to three, as an average now, per day. but we have an enormous amount of volunteers, who are absolutely heroes

in my eyes, to be honest. the way that we deal with any deceased is that we treat them like they were our own. newham has topped a list of councils issuing the most parking fines. nearly 240,000 were handed out in the 12 months tojuly last year, amounting to more than £10 million. nine london councils featured in the top ten list. a campaign is under way to save stables in west london that help disabled people and those with mental health challenges. park lane stables in teddington says it's been told its lease can't be renewed as the landlord wants to sell. it's raised more than £100,000 of the £1 million needed to buy the stables. the horses absolutely need the exercise just as much as the humans, and for the same reason, actually. for their physical and their mental health. and it's very rare that you get something like this in london so while we have things like this still, we need to make sure that we are preserving them. well, the landlord has said he's committed

to exploring a resolution. let's take a quick look at the situation on the tubes. generally, a good service, but the overground is part suspended between edmonton green and cheshunt because of a points failure. on to the weather then with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a very mild start this morning. we start the day around ten celsius. so certainly much milder than it has been recently. storm christoph has brought some heavy rain overnight, and it's going to continue as we head through the next couple of days. it is a bit drier this morning. the first band of heavy rain has cleared, but strong winds, 35 to 45mph gusts, and showers blowing through this afternoon. temperatures reaching a maximum, a mild 12 celsius. we hang on to the mild air overnight. further showers moving through. and from midnight, the met office has a yellow weather warning in place for heavy rain. that lasts through to thursday lunchtime. these showers will continue to blow through, through to dawn tomorrow morning.

the minimum temperature is going to drop at around nine celsius. now it is going to be another wet day for wednesday. of course, the rain falling on already saturated ground, could lead to localised flooding in one or two spots. the temperature, however, mild. and a slightly drier day as we head through thursday. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in an hour. now though, it's back to louise and dan. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. it's president trump's final full day in office today — and overnight he's announced that a ban on travellers entering the us from the uk, eu and brazil would be lifted next week. however, president—electjoe biden's team immediately said the restrictions will remain, stating that now is not the time to be easing measures. mr biden's inauguration ceremony will take place at 5pm tomorrow, uk time. the pandemic has created

a backlog of court cases which could damage the criminal justice system for years — that's a warning from the inspectorates for policing, the four criminal service watchdogs for england and wales say they have "grave concerns" after figures revealed there are now 54—thousand crown court cases waiting to be heard. mps will question the chief inspector of probation mps have backed a call by labour for the government to continue boosting universal credit payments by £20 a week. six conservative mps defied orders by voting for the motion, which was carried by 278 votes. the result will not force ministers to change policy but could increase pressure on the prime minister to continue the extra payment, which was introduced at the start of the first lockdown. campaigners say that around 75,000 self—employed women have lost out on financial support during the pandemic because they've had a baby in the last four

years. they're taking the government to court on thursday, claiming the way the self—employed income support scheme is calculated — using average profits between 2016 and 2019 — penalises women who've taken maternity leave during that time. the government insists the scheme is fair. more than four million people in the uk have now had their first coronavirus jab, but the health secretary matt hancock has acknowledged some parts of england are making better progress than others with the vaccine roll—out. some gps say they've struggled to get hold of enough doses, and there are concerns that some over—80s haven't yet been offered their jab. let's speak more about this with cabinet minister brandon lewis. he's in great yarmouth. good morning. thank you forjoining us. 4 million people have been vaccinated but we know that some over 80s are worried because they have not been contacted about their jab. what can you say to them? first

behind you? it certainly is. this is yesterday in leicestershire. you can see already high. with arrival of storm christoph we are going to see yet more rainfall. storm christoph was named by the met office yesterday mainly because of the rainfall rather than the strength of the wind. we normally associate named storms with strong winds. but i will just show you how much rain is going to fall across the country, anywhere from southern scotland, northern ireland, there is a risk of flooding. it is these brighter zones from southern scotland into north—west england and western wales where the heaviest of the rain and the most persistent of the rain will be. we could see a months worth of rainfall in the next couple of days. that will flow into the weather system. flooding is possible about anywhere. but our greatest likelihood indicated by met office amber warning anywhere from northamptonshire through towards the dales and parts of lancashire. that warning is out until thursday but river levels could still rise beyond it. let's take you through what is happening today. it is this zone,

northern ireland into northern ireland, north and west wales, where the rain is most relentless. nudging into southern scotland. some strong winds to the south. a few showers. east anglia stays mainly dry. the northern half of scotland mainly dry. frosty start. cold all day long. colderthan dry. frosty start. cold all day long. colder than the southern half of the country were winds gusting up to 50 mph and temperatures in double figures. mild across the south denied. forthe rain figures. mild across the south denied. for the rain at times. most persistent and not wasting them, north wales, northern ireland, southern scotland. snow across the southern uplands. an ice risk in southern scotland tomorrow morning. ten to 11 degrees warmer the further south you are. it is here where we have still got a free ride around on wednesday. tomorrow, more rain. for some of you are not wasting them and north west wales, it will feel there is no relenting in the next few days. strong and gusty winds. more snow in the southern opulence. brightest in western scotland and

northern ireland on wednesday. notice the temperatures, three to 5 degrees. the cold air will eventually win out. if i take you through wednesday evening and into wednesday night, this is storm christoph, this area of low pressure. stronger winds towards the south. they will transfer to the east of the country as we go through the night. heavy rain eventually clears in some parts of england and wales as we go through to thursday. as the cold air digs and we could see some significant snow in parts of eastern scotland down towards the southern uplands, may be the north pennines as well. much brighter weather further south. all of us will be into colder conditions by then. as i said, even though the rain has stopped, the flooding could be ongoing. river levels continue to rise. the next few days, keep an eye on the persistent rain leading to the flooding. as we head through into thursday, strong winds will bring wizards across parts of eastern scotland. that could cause a fair bit of disruption. —— blizzards across parts of eastern scotland. it -- blizzards across parts of eastern scotland. , ., ., ,

captain pierre emerick aubameyang scored twice, and the restrictions on handshakes, high fives and hugging were forgotten. arsenal are into the premier league's top ten but newcastle haven't won a game for over a month. celtic manager neil lennon stormed out of his latest news conference as questions continued to come in about the club's training trip to dubai. he and 13 players missed two matches after one positive coronavirus test — and there's since been a second. we did not abuse any privilege. we did the right things. we were absolutely totally professional. we had a little drink in the afternoon on a day off, completely allowed, no law breaking. yet now we come back to this barrage of absolute hypocrisy. phil neville has left his job as england women's head coach early, to take up the manager's role

complaining about the conditions, i think with the situation in the community here, don't think it is going down very well. ijust community here, don't think it is going down very well. i just think it is important that those people know that not all of the players are feeling like that. the majority of us, i think, feeling like that. the majority of us, ithink, respect feeling like that. the majority of us, i think, respect the fact we have to do what it takes to keep the community here are safe and keep covid out of melbourne, because as it stands there are no cases here. a few tennis players getting some time in court isn't worth the risk. let’s in court isn't worth the risk. let's talk about _ in court isn't worth the risk. let's talk about those _ in court isn't worth the risk. let's talk about those players - in court isn't worth the risk. let's talk about those players in - in court isn't worth the risk. let's talk about those players in their rooms at the moment. how are they managing to keep it and what are the challenges if you can't train ahead of a big tournament like this? yeah, it is difficult. _ of a big tournament like this? yeah, it is difficult. obviously _ of a big tournament like this? yeah, it is difficult. obviously people - it is difficult. obviously people have been putting in a lot of hard work over the last weeks and months to prepare for the first grand slam this year. so it is frustrating for them. i think tennis australia have done everything they can to try to help the situation. they have been

delivering equipment, fitness equipment, two people's rooms. obviously you are limited with the space you have got and how much you can do. but i have seen videos of people with mattresses against the walls and hitting tennis balls against that, trying to adapt as best they can, i guess. i against that, trying to adapt as best they can, i guess.- against that, trying to adapt as best they can, i guess. i know you are allowed _ best they can, i guess. i know you are allowed out _ best they can, i guess. i know you are allowed out for— best they can, i guess. i know you are allowed out for some - best they can, i guess. i know you are allowed out for some limited i are allowed out for some limited training. how different is this time for you than it normally is? how much training would normally be doing at this point?— much training would normally be doing at this point? probably about double what _ doing at this point? probably about double what we _ doing at this point? probably about double what we have _ doing at this point? probably about double what we have the _ doing at this point? probably about i double what we have the opportunity to do now. but like i say, just the fact we are getting the opportunity at all is something we are really grateful for. at all is something we are really gratefulfor. and me personally, i've got about two weeks after the quarantine ends, which involves a couple of warm up events before the grand slams. so i've got no worries that i will be prepared when the grand slam comes along. and that i will be prepared when the grand slam comes along. and there has been some _ grand slam comes along. and there has been some debate _ grand slam comes along. and there has been some debate in _ grand slam comes along. and there has been some debate in australia i has been some debate in australia about whether this tournament should even go ahead. what is that like for you to hear at this point?—

good morning, welcome to breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. our headlines today. nino wasjust doing nino was just doing one of those exercises for us! on his last full day as president, donald trump orders travel restrictions on the uk and the eu to be lifted. butjoe biden says it's too late and the bans will stay. storm christoph brings danger to life flood warnings with snow also expected. rain is the primary concern, we could see over a month's worth fall in some places, i will guide you through the full forecast. here on bbc breakfast, we speak to liverpool captainjordan henderson,

about being named the champion of nhs charities together for his efforts during the pandemic. give us the money we're owed. the thousands of pub, restaurant and cafe owners still waiting for the grants they've been promised to them afloat. breakfast has seen a letter suggesting fewer than half of local councils have started paying out. # you make me feel so young! and grandfather clock, aka former england manager glenn hoddle, willjoin us to talk about his time on the masked singer. it's tuesday the 19th of january. our top story. it's president trump's final full day in office today but he's still clashing with his incoming successor, joe biden, over matters of policy. overnight mr trump announced that a ban on travellers entering the us from the uk, europe and brazil would be lifted next week. but president—electjoe biden's team immediately said

the restrictions will remain. our washington correspondent, nomia iqbal has more. america's capital city is really quiet, and so is its president. mr trump has been largely silent after twitter permanently banned him. but there is some last—minute business. he announced a covid—19 travel ban on much of europe would be lifted. the incoming biden administration plans to reverse it, though. in a tweet, the incoming press secretary says in fact they will strengthen it. one thing they will not be able to stop are mr trump's pardons. like all outgoing presidents, he plans to use his last bit of power to grant clemency to more than 100 convicted criminals. this is all against a backdrop of a city which has turned into a fortress. up to 25,000 troops from the national guard are here, the most since the civil war era. this nation is still reeling from the riots earlier this month. it's emerged that some of them had

connections to law enforcement, and now all the inauguration security is being vetted by the army and the fbi. one of the bigger challenges will be identifying people in law enforcement who have sympathies for these groups or act in concert with them. and again law enforcement has all the authorities they need, the fbi hasjurisdiction to investigate civil rights abuses by law enforcement officers, theyjust need to prioritise that work. president—elect biden will fly into the city for his inauguration at capitol hill, he originally planned to make the trip by train. president trump will not be there, the first time that has happened in more than 150 years. he plans to leave for florida wednesday morning with the first lady melania trump. she has delivered a goodbye address. in all circumstances, i ask every american to be an ambassador of be best. to focus on what unites us, to raise above what divides us. to always choose love over hatred,

peace over violence. and others before yourself. four years on and president trump will be leaving the white house just as he entered it, with chaos and without convention. he did get his wall, though, just not the one he expected. nomia iqbal, bbc news, washington. nomia is in washington for us this morning. nomia, we knew this transition of power wasn't going to be normal or good—natured, didn't we? what happens over the next few hours? . �* , . , what happens over the next few hours? . �*, . , . hours? that's right, the city and the country _ hours? that's right, the city and the country is — hours? that's right, the city and the country is gearing _ hours? that's right, the city and the country is gearing up - hours? that's right, the city and the country is gearing up for- hours? that's right, the city and the country is gearing up for the j the country is gearing up for the incoming presidentjoe biden arriving here in washington, dc later this month, flying in rather than taking the train that he normally does from the nearby state of delaware, due to security concerns. he will be meeting vice

president—elect kamala harris who will be attending a memorial to americans who have died to covid—19. he will be putting the finishing touches to his inaugural speech which will be aimed at unifying the country. america is a difficult country. america is a difficult country right now, 25,000 armed troops on the ground here in dc to safeguard the incoming president and that says a lot. the city is leaving nothing to chance after that deadly assault on congress earlier this month. something else which is happening which is a deep clean of the white house. this isjoe biden's new home, it is a big building, six floors and more than 130 rooms, but it is also a building which has seen outbreaks of coronavirus cases, including president trump himself who came down with covid—19 in november. mrtrump who came down with covid—19 in november. mr trump has been keeping a low profile but we expect to hear

from him today or tomorrow. we have heard about the covid—19 travel bans, the pardons as well, he is expecting or hoping to have some sort of sendoff at the base where he will be flying away from, any hopes that he might reach out to the biden 5 as that he might reach out to the biden s as they enter new era are very short lived. he and his wife the first lady melania trump do not even plan to greetjoe biden and doctor jill biden, that task is left to the chief usher of the white house. thank you very much. the met office has issued a "danger—to—life" weather warning for parts of england today, as storm christoph heads for the uk. northern, eastern and central england are the areas most at risk of severe flooding, and residents are being urged to prepare flood defences and stay away from swollen rivers. the amber warnings are in place until thursday. we will be live in one of those

areas, we have been there a lot in the last few years, in hebden bridge, we will be there at 8:30am to look at the preparations there. and we will have the weather forecast in a moment. the pandemic has created a backlog of court cases which could damage the criminal justice system for years — that's a warning from the four criminal justice watchdogs for england and wales. the inspectorates for policing, prisons, probation and prosecutions say they have "grave concerns" after figures revealed there are now 54,000 crown court cases waiting to be heard. mps will question the chief inspector of probation services later today. six conservative mps have backed labour's call for the government to keep the universal credit top up worth £20 a week in place after the end of march. they'd been ordered to abstain but broke ranks and the motion passed by 278 votes to none. our chief political correspondent adam fleming is in westminster. to pick up the pieces, we spoke about this yesterday and we saw it

happen yesterday, what happens from this point on? what happen yesterday, what happens from this point on?— this point on? what happens now is a big discussion — this point on? what happens now is a big discussion inside _ this point on? what happens now is a big discussion inside the _ this point on? what happens now is a big discussion inside the government| big discussion inside the government between the prime minister, the chancellor rishi sunak, and the work and pension is secretary to coffey, who are looking at what you could replace this boost in the universal credit with. we are told that there are 14 different options that they are 14 different options that they are looking at, involving things like may be a one—off payment, and thenit like may be a one—off payment, and then it is how much and when, and is itjust one off? or do you extend the £20 increase for a temporary period, or withdraw it readily so it tapers down so then you have to discuss how long that is, and how much you reduce it by? and what about people who are not on universal credit now but might need to go on it after april? will they benefit from this at all? so that will be discussed over the next few weeks. the aim is to have something announced by the time of the budget which is on the 3rd of march

although it may come before that. ministers also say that it also depends on what the situation is with the pandemic because that has a knock—on impact on the state of the economy and the support that is needed. certainly that was the message this morning from brandon lewis, the northern ireland secretary. lewis, the northern ireland secretary-— lewis, the northern ireland secreta . , . , ., secretary. the uplift was there to be able to deal— secretary. the uplift was there to be able to deal with _ secretary. the uplift was there to be able to deal with the - secretary. the uplift was there to i be able to deal with the challenges around _ be able to deal with the challenges around the virus. we don't yet know for sure _ around the virus. we don't yet know for sure where we will be at that point. _ for sure where we will be at that point. we — for sure where we will be at that point, we have all seen how quickly how things — point, we have all seen how quickly how things can change with the way that the _ how things can change with the way that the virus moved in the last few months _ that the virus moved in the last few months and — that the virus moved in the last few months and weeks. the chancellor and the work— months and weeks. the chancellor and the work and pensions secretary will be looking _ the work and pensions secretary will be looking at this, they will make some _ be looking at this, they will make some decisions ahead of when this is due to _ some decisions ahead of when this is due to end. — some decisions ahead of when this is due to end, making decisions based on the _ due to end, making decisions based on the information we have at that point _ on the information we have at that point in _ on the information we have at that point in time based on where we are in the _ point in time based on where we are in the country in the virus if we have _ in the country in the virus if we have an — in the country in the virus if we have an ability to reopen the economy _ have an ability to reopen the economy. 50 have an ability to reopen the economy-— have an ability to reopen the economy. so it is no longer a question _ economy. so it is no longer a question of— economy. so it is no longer a question of if _ economy. so it is no longer a question of if this _ economy. so it is no longer a question of if this £20 -

good morning. it will be a difficult few days, heavy rain in the forecast, a met office amber warning in place, some flooding likely. the areas of greatest concern covered by the warning stretch from northamptonshire to the dales and northamptonshire to the dales and north lancashire, greater manchester, here river levels will rise the highest even though some of the heaviest rain will be on the heels of the wet pennines and to the rest of wales. the rain has set in already, for some will have it all the way to thursday morning. northern ireland, midlands, north west wales. dry and bright weather in the south—east, but gusty winds. and north of the central belt of scotland, we had temperatures of minus six, and it will be a dry and sunny day but one or two showers are possible. latest wins in the north, strong and gusty winds touching gale force in southern areas by bringing in milder air tonight. the same areas sitting under the persistent rain throughout the night into tomorrow morning although a bit more

let's get a view from the medical front line in two different doctor zoe norris — one of our breakfast regulars — is a gp in east yorkshire and doctor david holwell is also a gp — he's in west sussex. we have been talking about the different picture in different places, so it how many people have you been able to give the injection do? i you been able to give the in'ection do? ., ~' you been able to give the in'ection do? ., 4' �* ., you been able to give the in'ection do? ., ~ �* ., , do? iwork in bridlington, i support six practices _ do? iwork in bridlington, i support six practices there. _ do? iwork in bridlington, i support six practices there. we _ do? iwork in bridlington, i support six practices there. we will - do? iwork in bridlington, i support six practices there. we will be - six practices there. we will be finishing care homes this week and over 80s will be finished, so we will be moving on to the next cohort of 75-79 will be moving on to the next cohort of 75—79 —year—olds, pending vaccine deliveries. of 75-79 -year-olds, pending vaccine deliveries. �* . . , ., deliveries. and what about where you are, doctor david? _ deliveries. and what about where you are, doctor david? very _ deliveries. and what about where you are, doctor david? very similar. - deliveries. and what about where you are, doctor david? very similar. we i are, doctor david? very similar. we started on the _ are, doctor david? very similar. we started on the 15th _ are, doctor david? very similar. we started on the 15th of _ are, doctor david? very similar. we started on the 15th of december- are, doctor david? very similar. we started on the 15th of december sol started on the 15th of december so we were _ started on the 15th of december so we were one of the first starting. we will— we were one of the first starting. we will have completed all of our nursing _ we will have completed all of our nursing homes today and the last few over 80s _ nursing homes today and the last few over 805 will be done this weekend, after the _ over 805 will be done this weekend, after the vaccines arrive. you talked about _

time. as david says, you are talking 1000 patients for one batch of vaccine, so ringing most patients, making sure they know where to go, they have people to bring them down if they are elderly and frail. some other patients will be getting letters depending on whether they are within 45 minutes of one of the big vaccine hubs, we are not at the moment so our patients will be getting contacted by us. and we have some colleagues who work in health and social, front line staff, who are able to go to local hospitals to have the vaccine there. so it's a real mix but the main thing is it takes a long time for our admin team to contact everything a person, make sure they are booked in and they understand what will happen. == sure they are booked in and they understand what will happen. -- to contact every _ understand what will happen. -- to contact every single _ understand what will happen. -- to contact every single person. - understand what will happen. -- to contact every single person. these | contact every single person. these are important decisions, if someone is waiting at home for a vaccine, so many people really want to get it. these are individual decisions being made all the time. how do you decide

on the priorities? is it done alphabetically, how does it work? every area will have a slightly different variant on the system, the way we have done it is, we are six practices so each practice is responsible for the over 80s on their list. they will simply work through those either alphabetically or in birth date order to get the oldest people in first. then it is sometimes as simple as who answers the phone, if they are not in, they will be tried again. at the vaccine supply is quite erratic so we will continue trying them but it might be that we cannot get them in for another week or so. itjust takes a long time. another week or so. it 'ust takes a loni time. ~ another week or so. it 'ust takes a long time.— another week or so. it 'ust takes a loni time. ~ , ,, ,, ., long time. with the process like for ou? we long time. with the process like for you? we have _ long time. with the process like for you? we have -- — long time. with the process like for you? we have -- what _ long time. with the process like for you? we have -- what is _ long time. with the process like for you? we have -- what is the - long time. with the process like for. you? we have -- what is the process you? we have —— what is the process like for you? we have got lots of messages from people who are over 80 will have members of their family who are still waiting, how do you deal with those patients who have not yet have the vaccine when we are moving in the priority list? figs i

you. hopefully that has answered some of the questions that we have been getting a lot over the last 48 hours about the roll—out of the vaccine, about the roll—out of the vaccine, about family members are still waiting on how those priority lists are working. it's been a bumpy start to the year for schools which are now having to juggle remote learning, social distancing and covid testing, among many other pressures. now the dust has settled somewhat, breakfast'sjohn maguire has been speaking to three head teachers from different schools to see how they are coping. headteachers wear many hats. finance, maintenance, personnel — and now, mass covid testing. once we got over the bombshell of having to pull this together by the start of term, it has gone remarkably well. not without its challenges, which actually for us meant that we've converted two of our geography classrooms into testing stations.

so once we've done that, and we've got the training and we've identified the staff, we're now in a position to do the testing. evelyn forde is an award—winning headteacher of a secondary school in london. on your whiteboard, if you can, can you show me the first stage? few, if any, of us have been unscathed by the pandemic. but education has been turned on its head over and over again. what we're being asked to do is, you know, above and beyond, and not something that, you know, when we're training to be teachers and all of that. it's about that interaction with young people, that face to face. and now we've shifted to online lessons, which comes with its challenges. and i think there needs to be a recognition of that, and an acceptance that, you know, we are doing an amazing job under extenuating circumstances. a smaller and rural school,

but no less frenetic, staff, pupils and parents at this primary in oxfordshire are getting into the swing of a new term after the tumultuous start all schools experienced. now, we just need a little bit of calm, just to settle down and get things running smoothly, really, for a week, to let everybody's nerves settle down a little bit. i think the stress at the end of the christmas holiday, that final weekend, that enormous turbulence of the sunday and the monday. i wrote to all the parents, gave them the news. and then, of course, the staff spent the rest of the afternoon setting up for full opening the next day, went home. parents put their children to bed, bathed, with their uniform set out on the chair, ready for the morning. and of course, at eight o'clock, it all changed. so that was a huge roller—coaster ride for everybody. there are a lot more pupils in class than during the first lockdown, but here, they believe that's a positive.

we've got 40% of our children in now. but there are upsides to that. i mean, one of the massive upsides is that one of the reasons it's high, is because we have got all our vulnerable children in this time, whereas last time we struggled to do that, they were much more nervous, much more reluctant to attend. so we've got that trust now and we've got them in. so that means that we know they're all safe. we know children who struggled to access the online learning last time, we've got them in, we're giving them all a hot meal every day. so, you know, that that is a huge weight of staff's mind, actually, to know that we've got these children. lockdowns have fuelled greater inequality. for many pupils at this school in south wales, access to computers or to the internet is a very real problem. the school has around a thousand pupils and has given out more than 450 devices to help. for me, having an appropriate device was ideally a laptop, or a tablet that allowed them to access and work on it. a telephone isn't an appropriate device. but it is a constant challenge

because lots of families' circumstances change, the money coming into households change. that's notjust a challenge for my families, but it's a challenge for lots of families. so we keep those lines of communication open all of the time. and that's something i'm really proud of what we've achieved. and continuing uncertainty over exams is another major concern. it does feel incredibly strange at this moment in time, to be the headteacher of a school, and ultimately a teacher, that we have children, over 125 children, who are sitting examinations, or are going to be having their results in the summer, through an assessment system that we don't actually know what it is, which, if we just go back even a year ago, two years ago, we would laugh at that. dealing with the constant problems this pandemic creates is very difficult. some say school days

are the best of your life, but these are days most are longing to see the back of. john maguire, bbc news. you're watching bbc breakfast. coming up on today's programme. # you make me feel so young! from midfield maestro to musical maestro. well, sort of. glenn hoddle's time on the masked singer finally ran out at the weekend. we'll be chatting to the former england manager about that experience and his new lease of life after surviving a heart attack two years ago. he is good! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. new figures show london's population could have fallen by 700,000 people

since the start of the pandemic. it's thought that most were eu nationals who left after losing theirjobs, particularly those working in the hospitality sector. the research by the economic statistics centre of excellence found many foreign students also moved when universities and colleges closed. temporary mortuaries are reopening to help cope with the high death toll of this wave of the pandemic. one service based at luton central mosque has told the bbc numbers coming in daily now mirror what they would have had weekly before the pandemic. you know, we're getting a minimum of two to three, as an average now, per day. but we have an enormous amount of volunteers, who are absolutely heroes in my eyes, to be honest. the way that we deal with any deceased is that we treat them like they were our own. newham has topped a list of councils

issuing the most parking fines. nearly 240,000 were handed out in the 12 months tojuly last year amounting to more than £10 million. nine london councils featured in the top ten list. a campaign is under way to save stables in west london that help disabled people and those with mental health challenges. park lane stables in teddington — says its been told its lease can't be renewed as the landlord wants to sell. it's raised more than hundred thousand of the £1 million needed to buy the stables. the horses absolutely need the exercise just as much as the humans, and for the same reason, actually. for their physical and their mental health. and it's very rare that you get something like this in london so while we have things like this still, we need to make sure that we are preserving them. well, the landlord has said he's committed to �*exploring a resolution.�* let�*s take a quick look at the situation on the tubes. generally a good service but the overground is part suspended between edmonton green and cheshunt because of a points failure

on to the weather then with kate kinsella. good morning. it�*s a very mild start this morning. we start the day around ten celsius. so certainly much milder than it has been recently. storm christoph has brought some heavy rain overnight, and it�*s going to continue as we head through the next couple of days. it is a bit drier this morning. the first band of heavy rain has cleared, but strong winds, 35 to 45mph gusts, and showers blowing through this afternoon. temperatures reaching a maximum, a mild 12 celsius. we hang on to the mild air overnight. further showers moving through. and from midnight, the met office has a yellow weather warning in place for heavy rain. that lasts through to thursday lunchtime. these showers will continue to blow through, through to dawn tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature is going to drop at around nine celsius. now it is going to be another wet day for wednesday. of course, the rain falling on already saturated ground, could lead to localised flooding in one or two spots. the temperature, however, mild. and a slightly drier day

as we head through thursday. i�*m back with the latest from bbc london in an hour. now though it�*s back to louise and dan. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. after breakfast this morning, the rip—off britain team will be continuing a special week of live programmes on bbc one. gloria and angela are here to tell us what�*s coming up today. good morning. a big thank you to all of your— good morning. a big thank you to all of your breakfast viewers for sending _ of your breakfast viewers for sending in allthe of your breakfast viewers for sending in all the comments yesterday while we were on air. we had a fantastic response to all our items as i'm sure we will today when we have got advice on how you can beat the fraudsters and hopefully stop you falling into the trap of one young couple who, i'm sorry to say, lost their entire house deposit to a fraudster.

jordan henderson, hello. hi, sally. you have been announced as the nhs charities together champion. why was it so important for you to get involved? well, it�*s a huge honourfor me to be asked to do it, to support the nhs, especially at this time. and if i can help in any way, and support them in any way, i think that�*s the least i can do, really. so it means an awful lot to me and my family as well. and i know that you have a family connection in the nhs, don�*t you? and you have seen at first hand how tough things have been. yeah. so i spoke to my cousin stephanie a couple of weeks ago again. and you don�*t need me to tell you how tough it must be for them at this moment in time, not only dealing with the pandemic and covid, but everything else on top of that, treatment and stuff for other things. and because the overwhelmed, it�*s hard for them to be able to do that at the level that they maybe would have done a year ago,

which then people get frustrated. there�*s a lot for them to deal with, you know. do you ever worry for their welfare, their health, you know, being so involved in what�*s going on at the moment? everybody will worry. you know, ithink, erm... ..you never expect something like this to happen. you know, i�*ve said it before, you probably only see this in movies. but for the nhs, that is dealing with a situation that is now, but it�*s also afterwards, when things do return to normal and what they may suffer mentally, we can�*t let that happen because of the work they�*ve been doing really for everyone. and i�*m sure a lot of us look up to them. i certainly do. an incredible job they�*re doing, and i don�*t think i could do it, you know. some of the stuff that i hear and what they go through, for the families to say goodbye to each other on an ipad and things like that, is pretty tough. so, hats off to them. and then again, this is why the least i can do is try and support them as much as possible.

and everybody needs to try and protect them as much as possible over the next few months. what practical things do you think you could do to help nhs staff? i know at the moment you can�*t go into hospitals and offer your support in that way. yeah, in the end, that�*s the aim, to be able to go in to different hospitals and show me support that we can speak to them face to face. after speaking to me cousin, you know, the boost that that gives them, erm, to know that people are supporting them, people are behind them, because at the end of the day, it�*s probably the biggest crisis the nhs have had to deal with. i look back to when my dad was ill a few years ago, and the amazing work they�*ve done with him and without them, he probably wouldn�*t be here today. you mentioned your dad there. obviously, lots of people will remember the brilliant pictures of you and your dad hugging after the champions league final. what�*s life been like for you and him? have you been able to see him, or is he shielding? well, he�*s high risk, obviously, especially at the start,

he was shielding for a long time. so there�*s a long period of time where i couldn�*t see him and obviously, he couldn�*t see the grandkids. again, that�*s the season for everyone. it�*s really difficult over the past, well, nearly a year now, isn�*t it? ten, 11 months. it�*s been difficult for everyone. so, yeah, hopefully over the next few months the vaccine can start working and we can start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. what would you say to that big team of people now who are getting ready to, you know, give those vaccines out? you know, you�*re team captain, captain of the premier league champions, what would be your team talk to them? you�*ve put us on the spot there a little bit! normally i like to prepare a little bit of something. sorry! no, i think they�*ve got the support of everybody across the uk, you know, and obviously we�*re right behind them. we thank them for everything that they�*re doing and they�*ve done for us over the past year. one of the messages that i know you have been keen to put

across is that it�*s important at this point to try and protect the nhs, and for people to take individual responsibility for looking after themselves. i think you�*re spot on. you know, i think mentally, i think to be able to just do a little bit of exercise in the garden, or go for a walk or do stuff in the house, whatever it may be, just because i think that physical aspect, once you�*ve had that physical activity, mentally, you just feel a little bit better and fresher. the likes ofjoe wicks, you know, i think that what he�*s doing is amazing, with the stuff the kids can follow on the telly and just get them a little bit active, because obviously they�*re not going to school at the minute. so it�*s little things like that that keep people going. and as much as that... ..the more that we can do, the better for everyone, really. football has come under the spotlight because of goal celebrations — hugging, you know, pile—ons. what what�*s your take on that situation? if we�*re being asked to try and control that,

then we need to try our best to do that, and we do respect the rules. but yeah, if we�*re asked to do stuff, then we need to try our best to do it. even though it can be difficult in the heat of the game. jordan, i know you�*re a very busy man. i�*m going to let you get back to home schooling, which i know you�*re particularly enjoying. i�*m surprised they haven�*t come running in, actually, so...! yeah, we�*ve done well. it�*s tough though, isn�*t it? it�*s tough? yeah, it is, it is tough. you know, i think to be fair, a lot of the time they�*re learning me, you know, they�*re asking me questions. no, it�*s give them some structure as well. it�*s hard for them socially. again, for children, it�*s so difficult not having that social aspect of seeing other people and, erm... but kids cope with it better than adults. i think, you know. they get on with it, they do their home schooling and they�*re always smiling. so it�*s a breath of fresh air for me to be able to do that, really. jordan, thank you very much indeed. thanks very much, sally. thank you.
