we start with the massive police search for a missing baby whose parents have been arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. police say the baby is believed to have had no medical attention since the time of birth in early january and they feel the risk is getting so great that they now have to consider the possibility that the baby has come to harm. constance marten and her partner mark gordon, who's a convicted sex offender, were found by sussex police in brighton last night after a member of the public reported seeing them. the baby was just days old when the couple disappeared since when they have been travelling across england by taxi, apparently trying to keep away from the police. our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford has the latest. working their way slowly through allotments in north brighton, police officers from london are searching for a missing baby stop every shed and greenhouse was being checked

now constance marten and mark gordon have been found and there is no sign of the baby and the couple who the police think may have been sleeping outdoors for several weeks have been arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. daniel sanford, our home affairs correspondent with the latest in brighton. our other main story this evening is that the prime minister has been in belfast trying to build support for his deal with the eu on trading arrangements for northern ireland. he's been speaking to political parties including sinn fein, the alliance party and crucially the democratic unionists or dup whose support is vital if the political deadlock in northern ireland is to be broken. the dup says the deal goes some way�* to addressing concerns but that issues remain. sinn fein has welcomed the deal and says dup should now enable the return of devolved government the deal is called the windsor
6:06 pm
framework and principally it involves creating green and red lanes for goods moving into northern ireland from great britain. those goods destined only for northern ireland would use that green lane with virtually no checks needed and so getting rid of that highly controversial customs border in the irish sea. however, that will stay, as we can see, for the second lane, the red line, the goods destined for the red line, the goods destined for the republic of ireland, in other words the european union. they would still have to be checked in that lane. the northern ireland assembly would have the power to fend off any changes to eu regulations. it is called the stormont break, but the eu is saying that will only be for emergencies. but as we know, the northern ireland assembly isn't even sitting right now and that is because the democratic unionists have withdrawn their cooperation because of the current trade deal

arrangements. the question is, will the attitude change given this new deal? 0ur ireland correspondent emma vardy has more details. with the deal done today was the day for the hard sell. two ordinary consumers of northern ireland anti—business. at a coca—cola factory in lisbon the prime minister wanted to emphasise the advantages of being able to sell both to the uk and into europe. that of being able to sell both to the uk and into europe.— and into europe. that is the prize that is on offer— and into europe. that is the prize that is on offer because - and into europe. that is the prize that is on offer because if - and into europe. that is the prize that is on offer because if we - and into europe. that is the prize that is on offer because if we get| that is on offer because if we get this right, if we get this framework implemented, if we get the executive back up and running, northern ireland is in the unbelievably special position, unique position in the entire world, the european continent, and having privileged access notjust continent, and having privileged access not just to the continent, and having privileged access notjust to the uk home market, which is enormous, the fifth biggest in the world, but also the european union single market. maw; european union single market. many businesses have _ european union single market. many businesses have welcomed the deal

6:11 pm
often in a sceptical position as far as the government is concerned and brexit, and it seems they are coming around, some of them exercising muscles in theirjaws to sound positive that they have not exercised for quite some time. that said, there is another meeting of traditionally more sceptic conservative mps going on right now. downing street think they are in as good a place right now as they could have hoped to be at this stage. but as emma said, they still have to persuade the democratic unionist party and they are not there yet. chris, many thanks for the latest. chris, many thanks for the latest. chris mason at the houses of parliament. at the trial of a nurse accused of the murder of seven babies and the attempted murder of ten others the court has heard evidence from a consultant who was said to feel �*extremely uncomfortable' about lucy letby�*s conduct. dr ravi jayaram said he'd interrupted the nurse during an alleged attack on a baby

6:13 pm
felt extremely uncomfortable at the thought of her being left alone and where to look in on the baby. he said, you can call me hysterical, you can call me irrational, but that is how i felt. i got up to check on baby k to prove to myself that i needed to stop being ridiculous and that of course everything was going to be ok. but the doctor said the baby possum oxygen levels had dropped and lucy b was standing at the incubator not doing anything. the monitor alarms had not triggered and he saw the baby's breathing tube had become dislodged so he resuscitated her. the defence team have argued that the breathing tube may have become dislodged on its own because of the baby's movements. the consultant told the court that doctors raised their concerns to hospital management eight months before the nurse was removed from front—line duty. baby k was transferred from chester to a different hospital where she died three days later. the nurse is charged with her attempted murder,

michael buchanan, bbc news, bristol. thousands of schools in england, scotland and wales are facing further disruption this week, as teachers strike again over pay. the disputes across the uk started with below inflation pay rises for this financial year. in england, teachers received a 5% pay increase, and the government hasn't yet moved this. in scotland, a revised offer of 6 per cent has been rejected by unions. and teachers in wales were offered a 6.5 per cent award, plus a one—off payment, but that's also been turned down. today, members of the national education union took action across northern england, as did members of the educational institute of scotland. parts of england and wales will also be affected over the next two days, as our education editor branwenjeffreys reports. feast your eyes, look at this. bacon butties for striking teachers, gathering in newcastle from the picket line, protesting about workload as much as pay.

among them, lynn with her two daughters. i was really shocked by the workload expectations really from day one. it's really, really unmanageable. would that effect whether you are able or not to stay in teaching as a mother? yes, it is definitely something that is hard to see a future in. lifting spirits below grey skies. hundreds of teachers marched in newcastle city centre. most experienced teachers like sean are getting a 5% pay increase. watch for the trees here. to pay for new teachers will go up to 30,000 next year. this dispute could turn into a long march. what do you say to a parent who says, look, i can't afford to be disrupted to lose a day's pay? i can't afford to be disrupted to lose a day's pay either really, but it's something we've got to do and it is this government's fault,
6:20 pm
the fault lies with this government, not with the teachers. we have been forced into this. there is no sign of the resolve of striking teachers weakening, but the government has said it is only prepared to continue negotiations if they call off all of the strikes. horns toot. some toots of support in scotland where schools closed for the first of two national strikes, with more local ones to follow. for parents everywhere it is not easy to manage. i spoke to a mum facing teacher strikes in the south of england. i don't think that parents will hold as much support as perhaps they have got at this stage because the impact isn't just on the teachers and just on the kids, it then impacts on everyday life. you don't have to write this down. schools have worked hard on attendance since covid. at this dewsbury school today, just year ten and 11 were in lessons. we haven't really been
