in an interview with the bbc‘s andrew marr show, she said she recognised people's concerns about theh service but insisted extra money was being spent. the prime minister has also confirmed that she is preparing to reshuffle her cabinet, as our political correspondent susanna mendonca reports. it has been a tough year for theresa may. she lost her majority in the election, faced a rebellion from her own backbenchers, had to deal with resignations and even had to sack her second—in—command, meaning she now needs to have a cabinet reshuffle. no prizes for guessing, andrew, obviously damian green's departure before christmas means some changes need to be made. now in an interview with the bbc, mrs may has made it clear that she wants her premiership to be about more than just brexit. but the new year has already brought in old problems. there's 73 outstanding ambulances right now... the latest challenge for mrs may, a winter crisis in the nhs from a first—hand perspective. the woman filming this waited in an ambulance for hours before her mother, who had suffered a stroke, could be seen

in an interview to be broadcast on the andrew marr show tomorrow, emmanuel macron said he respected,brexit vote, and said the eu would love to welcome the uk back. let's get more on this from our political correspondent emma va rdy. good morning, what's nice on this occasion is we are able to say what the president said, as opposed to what someone else thinks he says. absolutely, this is his first visit to britain since becoming french president command so everybody has been looking to try to gauge how favourably france will look on britain when it comes to these difficult brexit negotiations. theresa may is of course calling for a bespoke trade deal after we leave the eu, that means being able to continue trading with european countries without the problem of having costly tariffs imposed. we wa nt having costly tariffs imposed. we want a deal that doesn't really exist at the moment, something better than any other country outside the eu has currently got. president emmanuel macron says a bespoke deal like that is something you may well end up with but has underlined the warnings we

in an interview with the bbc‘s andrew marr show, both meryl streep and tom hanks were asked whether they their glowing endorsement. well, i don't know if she was thinking that specifically, although ido thinking that specifically, although i do here now that she is really considering it. but she certainly set the bar pretty high for anybody else that decides to run, because no one can speak in less lofty terms and adhere to principle and passion ina and adhere to principle and passion in a legal and adhere to principle and passion ina legal campaign, and adhere to principle and passion in a legal campaign, because we have seen in a legal campaign, because we have seen it as possible. that is how you rouse people. that was the voice of a leader. you know, i pity whoever does try to run. i believe oprah is some other kind of social force, one of the kind that has never existed before, quite attractive. i believe she wakes up in the morning, both personally and professionally, wonders what she can do, specifically, in order to make the world a better place. maybe it is a very local event, m

in an interview to be broadcast on the andrew marr show tomorrow, emmanuel macron also suggested thea bespoke trade deal with the european union after brexit, but again warned that britain would not have full access to the single market without accepting its rules. we can get more on this from our political correspondent emma va rdy. it is always interesting to get from the horse's mouth exactly what leaders think. what president macron said will matter because france is a big player in the eu and what macron things will be interesting, influential among the other eu countries we will be negotiating with as part of the brexit talks. theresa may has said what britain wa nts after theresa may has said what britain wants after brexit is a bespoke trade deal with the eu, not something that replicates what another country outside the eu has but something that goes much further than that. what president macron has said is, yes, britain may well be in line for the bespoke deal it is after but any deal will not give you the same level of access to the single market as the one you have alread
