really. to see what's going to happen whether these exports are going to be blocked or not. she's made it very clear that she feels that whilst the eu already exported lots of their doses to the uk they haven't had the same the other way around. that's not quite the full story because a lot of the raw materials that actually are needed to produce the vaccine have been sent over to the io. a lot of them from york shire actually. that's interesting. such is what? a factory that spaced here and actually spoken to lots of apprentice works that recently that's been sending them over. we know that that's a real boost for the uk. it hasn't quite been recognised by the eu at this stage. been recognised by the eu at this state. ~ ., , been recognised by the eu at this stae. . ., , ., been recognised by the eu at this state. ~ .,, ., ., ,, been recognised by the eu at this state. ~ ., ., ,, stage. well, it has now. thank you very much- — stage. well, it has now. thank you very much- we _ stage. well, it has now. thank you very much. we are _ stage. well, it has now. thank you very much. we are sticking - stage. well, it has now. thank you very much. we are sticking with i very much. we are sticking with vaccines. i like you to take us back to the front page of the natural. when you see that figure on the

talk about at the yorkshire opposed it's going to have to make sure that thatis it's going to have to make sure that that is across the country a bit better. we've already had the york shire metro mayor making a massive cash injection. 806 million and trying to his area recovering. that does include 500 worth of government loan, by the way. but it's a massive amount of money to really try and boost the economy and get productivity out. late boost the economy and get productivity out.— boost the economy and get productivity out. boost the economy and get roductivi out. ~ ., ., ., productivity out. we are going to have to stop _ productivity out. we are going to have to stop there. _ productivity out. we are going to have to stop there. charles, - productivity out. we are going to have to stop there. charles, i'ml have to stop there. charles, i'm going to get your thoughts on this on the next edition of the papers. so you get a good chunk rather than a few seconds. thank you do both. i will see you at 1130. thank you very much indeed. and thank you for watching us. i'm back at the top of the arrow with the latest news and again at 1130 with the papers. see you then.

from their fields and their land, they came on tractors, trucks, on horseback in a roadside resistance. tens of thousands of farmers determined to peacefully protest new laws. it's become the biggest challenge facing india's prime minister, narendra modi. narendra is not listening to us. the government is so stubborn. for those farmers under ten acres, they'll die. they'll die. explosion. tensions have been building for months. this is a fight over the future of farming in india. those of us who have worked on the reforms for 50 years, this is thrown at us. well, you just throw them to the wolves? no!

0ld versus new. so what started this stand—off and who will win? this is national highway 44. it's usually a busy road into the indian capital delhi. and now it's busy for a very different reason. this place is packed with protesters, mostly farmers from the neighbouring states of punjab, haryana and uttar pradesh. now, they first got here at the end of november. they weren't allowed into the capital city delhi, and so they set up camp here. they've been here through the bitterly cold winter protesting three government farm laws that they believe will destroy them. now, ifirst came here at the beginning of december and this camp has grown in size since then. it's basically a mini city,

a mini town, a mini community. people are living here, they're sleeping on the back of their trucks, they're eating here, there are hospitals, there's even a gym here. it's a sign, clearly, that they're in this for the long haul. mohan singh made the seven hour journey from his farm in phagwara in punjab to join the protests. he told me he's been sleeping in the back of this truck through india's cold winter months. many people have died due to the harsh weather conditions. agriculture matters in india.

not only does it feed this vast nation, it's a big source of employment. four in ten indians work as farmers and more than half of the country depends on agriculture as their main source of income. as the months have gone on, what i've found striking is how what began as a male dominated process has become more female. while women make up a large chunk of india's farm workers, only a small percentage own any land. seen, but rarely heard, they're becoming a powerful voice at these protests.

its opposition to three new agricultural laws passed last year, which has fuelled this movement. the first is all about giving farmers freedom of choice by allowing them to sell to anyone anywhere in india. at the moment, farmers sell their produce through local government regulated markets where they're guaranteed a minimum price. under the new law, these wholesale markets would still exist. but farmers would also be able to sell directly to big businesses. the government says farmers will be better off by having more options. but farmers fear that once corporations are involved, price guarantees will disappear. the second law sets the rules for how farmers draw up

contracts with businesses. things like setting a price for crops before they are even planted. the third allows private businesses to stockpile basic crops like lentils, onions and potatoes. until now, only the government was able to store large reserves of these. it means private companies can buy these in bulk. farmers fear this will impact pricing even further. to get a better understanding of what is driving the protests, we took a trip out to a farm. agriculture is seen as the backbone of this nation. but its contribution to india's economy has been shrinking. and despite government subsidies to help farmers, their incomes have also fallen. surat singh's family have been working these fields in the state of haryana for generations.

the 64—year—old has been at the protests every night. he invited me to his farm to explain why this issue matters so much to him.

at the end of january, as farmers marched to the capital delhi in a show of strength against prime minister modi, things turned ugly. what started as a clash of opinions over these laws descended into chaos. hundreds of police and protesters were injured. farmers say the police were heavy—handed. gunfire. officials say protesters didn't stick to the agreed route and time. and then came this. protesters pushed their way into delhi's iconic red fort, a symbol of power for centuries, a sign of india's strength. many were left wondering whether the country's prime minister had lost control on this issue. at the same time, prime minister

modi was hosting the annual republic day parade. the leader, who won a second term in a landslide, increasingly challenged by this crisis. nicknamed india's strongman, the prime minister has weakened his resolve, offering to suspend the farm laws for 18 months. but he's still refusing to scrap them. what would you say to the farmers i've met at these protests who say these laws will destroy them? all these three reforms do, three new laws do, is give the farmers the freedom. they don't take away anything. it gives them freedom to sell when, where, through a contract, not a contract, it just gives freedom. why does the agriculture sector in india need to modernise? agriculture was the only sector, the only product sector which had until 2013 not been

subject to reform. the result was that for 70 years agriculture has had an average productivity of 50% of world average. we have just been stuck there with no change. so some bureaucrat sitting in the state government or the central government had to decide what is good for agriculture or bad for agriculture, and what they can or cannot do. the situation is untenable. as the protests continue, farmers accuse the government of trying to silence them and their supporters. after the violence on republic day, security at the camp was stepped up. and internet was temporarily shut down. journalists and activists backing the cause have beenjailed. some had their social media accounts suspended.

what started here at the end of last year has grown into a mass movement. despite rounds of talks, the farmers and the government still can't reach a deal. this is becoming a bigger challenge for prime minister modi as every day goes by. a politician who rarely backs down in a stand—off with the nation's farmers, who say they won't budge until the laws are repealed. good evening. the weather pattern is forecast to change over the week ahead. today's been another one of those quiet days mixed amount of sunshine, certainly but a lot of dry weather. overnight tonight we'll see cloud

probably coming back in from the atlantic into northern ireland into western scotland and northwest england. rather more variable cloud elsewhere and where we have the clearer skies for longer, say parts of northeast england, midlands and wales and even into eastern scotland, those temperatures will be close to freezing by the morning. one or two mist and fog patches. but those won't last long. looking ahead to monday, looks quite cloudy for western scotland, northwest england and northern scotland. more of a breeze or light drizzle for western scotland. elsewhere it looks dry, sunshine from time to time. highest temperatures 13, 14 degrees where the clouds a bit thinner through the midlands, the southeast and also the northeast of scotland. high pressure then in charge. the centre of the high starts to drift away towards continental europe on tuesday. allowing more of a south to south—westerly breeze. a noticable breeze picking up in most areas on tuesday and we may have a fair bit of cloud around. the best of the sunshine across more sheltered eastern areas in northern ireland in eastern scotland we've got a weather

front arriving and that will start to bring rain. could be drizzle across western areas of the day as well. that weatherfront is going to signal a change. it's not bringing much rain at all but it will move down across the country, opening up more of an atlantic airstream heading our way and bringing it's with it some more unsettled weather. this weather front, there it is there, producing a bit of rain and drizzle as it heads towards the southeast, through the midlands and east anglia. then there is some sunshine before we see some showers coming into the northwest where we got the stronger winds and it will be wettest in the northwest of scotland. temperatures dropping away here. otherwise, not a great deal of change. as we move from wednesday into thursday, the wind starts to pick up a little bit more, another weather system coming in from the atlantic. no longer high pressure, pressure will be much lower by thursday and we've got showers and sunshine perhaps some heavy showers toward the northwest was up blog is rain sweeping across northern island and western parts of scotland. again, temperatures 11 to 13 celsius so near normal for this time of year. a quiet start to the week,

things start to turn a bit wetter and windier. particularly in the northwest and then briefly later in the week it turns a bit chillier.
