my inclination is on the first day iam inclination is on the first day i am inaugurated to say i am goingpublic for 100 days to mask just going to ask the public for 100 days to maskjust100 days, not forever, 100 days. and i think we will see a significant reduction that occurs with vaccinations and masking, to drive down the numbers considerably. the united states has recorded its highest ever daily death toll from coronavirus, more than 2800 people in a single day stop 100,000 people are in hospital being treated for the disease ina being treated for the disease in a country which already has the highest level death toll. the governor of california has announced a statewide stay—at—home order which will ta ke stay—at—home order which will take effect once the number of available beds in intensive ca re available beds in intensive care units falls below a certain threshold. the state's social distancing rules will be the strictest in the us. our washington correspondent lebo disekojoins me now. it's great to see you. it looks likejoe biden wants to charge a different path when it comes t

iam i am absolutely convinced that in100 i am absolutely convinced that in 100 days we can change the course of the disease and change life in america for the better. a 90 year—old british woman becomes the first person in the world to be given the pfizer vaccine to protect against covid—19. a champions league match in paris is abandoned, with teams walking off the pitch following an alleged racist slur. a cyber—security firm which protects big companies from data theft has itself become the victim of hacking. the us—president elect, joe biden, has outlined his plans to combat a deepening coronavirus health emergency which has left record numbers of americans in hospital, and a death toll of more than 280,000. he promised that in his first 100 days, 100 million americans would be vaccinated, and that he would push to re—open schools. in some states, children haven't sat in a classroom for 10 months. the president—elect also again appealed for everyone to wear a mask during his first 100 days. masking, vaccinations, opening schools, these are the three key goals for my first 100 days.

iam questions themselves very carefully. shadow chancellor doing all i can for the economy out of this mess. as i said, the deepest recession of any major economy right now, that the uk is experiencing. talking to businesses, hearing about the challenges they are facing, that is my focus right now. unless we see far more from this conservative government to support business and help them with the twin challenges of the end of the twin challenges of the end of the implementation period and this covid—i9 crisis, the implementation of tier 4, otherwise we will see even more economic damage in the future. the government is saying we are facing a brighter future, future. the government is saying we are facing a brighterfuture, we now have the trade deal, we have the vaccine, maybe in a few months we will have turned the corner on coronavirus. borisjohnson will have turned the corner on coronavirus. boris johnson and will have turned the corner on coronavirus. borisjohnson and rishi sunak very optimistic this morning. well of cour

iam now going —— afraid that they are going —— afraid that they are going to be prioritising this firstsure essential workers and folks that have been hit hardest will get the vaccine first. 2.9 million doses go out next week, thatis million doses go out next week, that is a start and a very exciting start i would imagine for a lot of people, but how many months will it take to get eve ryo ne many months will it take to get everyone vaccinated, if not with this vaccine and other vaccines? we have yet to see a solid vaccination planet a level. we lack a robust vaccination campaign. and i am worried that until a large number of the population gets vaccinated against covid, and we will be worried about avoiding indoors and wearing masks and social distancing. i think this will speed up the process but distribution poses a challenge and until we have a robust vaccination plan that is publicly available, that the scientific community can react to and the population can see and understand, things are going to look murky. thank you so going to look murky. thank you so much forjoining us. thank

i've worked extremely hard to get where i am and iam extremely hard to get where i am and i am prettybe honest, because i know how quick it can all change. the plan is to try and take livingston as high up the table as possible. we are in a league cup semifinal at hamden, it would be fantastic to take that into a final at hamden and better to lift a final at hamden and better to lift a trophy. you are in interim charge until the end of the season. you have to pass the fit and proper test by the scottish fa. there is some application about that. —— my apprehension about that.|j application about that. —— my apprehension about that. i was arrested in 2004 and what i was imprisoned in 2006. i was released in 2010. so i have to pass the scottish football association is fit and proper test. they've come out recently and said, i think late last week, about inclusion and diversity and opportunity, so i hope that will stand me in good stead going forward. i think that's the key word, isn't it? because not everybody gets given the same opportunities and i think for you, you didn't realise that

for everyone who lives there, iam sure thing.or everyone who lives there, i am sure they are absolutely dying to come out of these restrictions. it will be interesting to see how many places to go into tier 2 later on this week. i know it means a lot for businesses, especially in the christmas period. john, take us in the christmas period. john, take us onto the daily star. we must not tell phipps times ten. they are getting rather good at this. that cartoon and those captions are a reference to the fact that the government initially said that schools were not a problem, the virus does not spread in schools. now the indications are that it does, or at least the indications are, in fairness, i think we should point out, i hope i have got this right, young people are increasingly getting coronavirus but not showing any symptoms, nevertheless it is a problem because they are passing it oi'i problem because they are passing it on to older people. that is where theissue on to older people. that is where the issue arises. then they hav

iam reassured optimise itself, so we need to be vigilant., see what they do next and head them off, those systems are working well which means we can stay one step ahead. we will talk about schools throughout the morning, but with that potential increase between ten and 19—year—olds of in some cases 75% increases, i'm not asking you to make a judgment about whether schools should be closed but you can see why people are making that argument? yes, if you ask me as a doctor, what is the best way to stop a pandemic, you say, we have to isolate everyone. if you ask me as a member of the human race, i would say, people need to be able to live their lives, educate their children, get together at christmas time. the two factors are at odds with each other. this is the difficult tightrope that we are all trying to walk at the moment, have a life and a job walk at the moment, have a life and ajob and walk at the moment, have a life and a job and get our children educated but not catch coronavirus for christmas. i can understand whether schools are co

"0ur planet is broken" — that's the warning the secretary general of the united nations will give today when he outlines that tackling global warming is now the central objective of the un. in a special bbc broadcast, antonio guterres. also says "there is no vaccine for the planet". here's our chief environment correspondent, justin rowlatt. 2020 has been a year of dramatic weather extremes. greenhouse gas concentrations are still rising in the atmosphere, despite the covid—19lockdowns, says the head of the united nations. in a speech to be broadcast later today exclusively on bbc news, un secretary—general antonio guterres, will say there is no vaccine for the planet. biodiversity is collapsing, deserts are spreading, oceans are choking with plastic waste, and apocalyptic fires and floods, cyclones and hurricanes are the new normal. terrible wildfires raged across australia, burning vast areas. and there were

iam made this decision. is there another way?o to continue to go to school but they will be tested, is that not a possibility? testing is important and we very much support testing. we would like to see that widespread, but we do not think it is quick enough, it is responsive enough to deal with the present health care emergency that we have in wales. we don't think the minister had any alternative at this particular stage. we are further down the road in regards to rapid testing and that would be an option for wales but we don't think it is at the moment. given there is one borrower of london which has 360 —— 363 new cases per 100,000, the average infection cases across wales, 370, and they are talking about testing. the figures are similar. i am wondering given the impact of not being at school for children, that perhaps you could have destroyed testing for another go?|j perhaps you could have destroyed testing for another go? i think we actually think is better for their children's education that they are not at school next we

iam i am proud to say we have made sure that this vaccine will be free for all americans.to the uk from spain's canary islands must self—isolate — some fear they won't get back in time to avoid christmas in quarantine. world leaders will hold a virtual climate summit later to lay out their plans for cutting greenhouse gas emissions. lots of us certainly in the uk which we could travel, get out of the winter gloom. now on bbc news, the travel show. on the show this week... the panto survivors keeping the show on the road. hello, my darlings! the native american woman making waves in the grand canyon. the roman empire's sunken party town. and how to run up a sand dune. it's tough. ijust keep thinking, relentless forward motion, just one step after the other. hello, and welcome to the travel show, coming to you from the festive windsor. now, in spite of the glimmers of hope we are hearing on the news, for many of us, travel is still impractical but never fear, we are here to bring you inspiration amid all these dark and gloomy nights. first, though... for britain's theatres,

iam say figure out what the information is. glad that you have some of those details. it does raise the question of a timeline for one, would it be the testing facilities available? and two, they still has to be an agreement made. we are coming into christmas day and closer to that day and many drivers want to get back onto their families. how does it look? the implication of this and if people are reading it and are waiting for the detail from us, let me just look down and check what i printed out. this is the bit that applies to people who are waiting on lorry cues now in dover. that is the base that talks about rapid antigen tests for transport workers and it says that it should not lead to disruption. in other words, the european commission hope in this document that we have printed from their website that is that it can be done quick quickly. rapid antigen tests are these tests whose accuracy is called into question sometimes, but which are speedy and relatively effective. the hopeis speedy and relatively effective. the ho

iam earth do you plan for sunday like this?urch restrictions, we have been open as normal. the new government guidance regarding substantial meal came into play. we serve food already here anyway, so we did not have that issue a lot of people did come as we've just been business as usual on reduced hours. ic, and when it comes to all of the stock, the you bought m, to all of the stock, the you bought in, the beer, what happens to all of that? -- in, the beer, what happens to all of that? —— the food. in, the beer, what happens to all of that? -- the food. we have had in the back of our minds, since that first lockdown in march, when every thing went terribly wrong and waited for that beer away, we had that in the back of our minds, so we've been very careful not over ordering, making sure our stock levels are as low as possible to reduce waste, and i'm part of a chain, low as possible to reduce waste, and i'm part ofa chain, so low as possible to reduce waste, and i'm part of a chain, so there are sites still open, so i am fort

not really, iam more have any worries about it?me than i am about having the vaccine. i think it has been well tested, it will be perfectly safe for us to have. when is yours due? i am having mind this afternoon. what about the residents, have they been given the option, too? yes, they will have the option too? yes, they will have the option to have it but they won't be having it today, we are waiting to hear when they will be receiving it. the vaccine will need to come to the home, we will have to work out the logistics of how it is going to travel here. he said some of your staff are waiting as well for the vaccine to be delivered to the home, why don't they want to have it immediately? for people who don't drive, it is difficult for them to get to the vaccine centre. obviously, we tried to not lift share when we can, especially in groups because if somebody were to develop symptoms of covid, obviously they wouldn't be immune to it so if they wouldn't be immune to it so if they did develop symptoms and they had been in the car tr

iam from try to offset another brexit risks?covid crisis that we are all living through but also making them think (inaudible) we have thoughts to a number of scenarios and it is important we are therefore our customers. —— the four other customers. let's get more on the vote that mps are going to take pa rt the vote that mps are going to take part in later on the new tiers when lockdown ends tomorrow. dr chris papalopoudos is a principal lecturer in public health at the university of bedfordshire. the measures are pretty tough, in your view, do we need to be that strict? i do believe thats that is made quite clear in the impact assessment provided by the government last night. they provide the owners and reducing case rates in the areas that were under the tier 3 restrictions, i think the restrictions are having a noticeable and very important impact on case rates. we have seen a lot of dispute about whether they are necessary, if people think, great, we can go shopping as of tomorrow, what would you say about the virus spread

my point, iam in, it keeps descent temperature.ou have to be three temperature. and your punishment if you do not get their attempt or is you've got to drink it cold! this takes away the punishment! i cannot believe you're such a mug hardliner! you are! it is called in ember mug. it is a smart mug, which means you can connected your phone and sent it to keep your coffee or your t at any temperature you choose. yeah, i love a very scalding hot cup of coffee, so for me, this invention was a dream to find, but it is funny... i might be in the minority! rachel, that is weirdly british. it is something darkin weirdly british. it is something dark in his background when he did not get hot coffee in school or something. but anyway about rachel, thank you very much. i think we have to change his mind! rachel, thank you forjoining us. that was interesting for the psychology. insight! yes, there we go. ok, so that's the gift—giving, a vital part of the holidays, but certainly not the only one. there's also that highly—prized photo op with sa

iam on uk government. is that enough for you? for culture, media and sport put together to look at misinformation. one of the things i've put to the government and social media companies is that when we actually check up on them, when we actually check up on them, when we check what you're doing in practice, we took 1000 bits of misinformation and got some volu nteers misinformation and got some volunteers to report it using the social media's own systems, less than 5% was taken down. that's what happens when you check on them. the truth is we are being gas lit by them. they say they are doing their utmost but in reality are doing nothing. goodness. imran ahmed, thank you very much indeed. tonight's premier league fixture between everton and manchester city has been cancelled due to city's squad being hit by coronavirus. in a tweet, everton said that following a premier league board meeting this afternoon, they were informed that the fixture had been postponed on medical grounds. it said it's due to an increase in cases of covid—

iam! four. four metres away. two. 1.5... and your cane is about to... one. there we go! 0.5.ble, babe. i think this is going to be useful even after the pandemic for tackling things like queues. right, you're there. a person standing on a sidewalk in front of a store. that is incredible. sings: # two metres away. i'm two metres away! 0h, there's another person. honestly, i think knowing that people are around me freaks me out a little bit because i'm really not used to knowing where people are! so i'm going to have to get used to it, but i'm really excited that i can be in control again. but any a! tool can only ever be as good as its training data. and objects like braille readers or white canes have never been the focus of an ai database before, until now. these clips have been collected by microsoft, city university of london and the university of oxford, but they have all been filmed by people like robin. it's really important that blind people themselves are the ones to do the recording of the things that are important to them. that they're the ones that are capturing th

iam paraphrasing here.g the romanian word for black, the fourth match official is from romania, and "i am not a racist." there is then another clip that we have seen some footage, where demba ba, the striker for the turkish side says, "why, when you mention a black guy, do you have to say this black guy?" the implication being that you wouldn't describe the coach that way if he was white. presnel kimpembe, who is a paris saint—germain striker, is overheard in the footage saying, "is he serious? we are heading in, that's it." and then all of the players from both sides appear to show real solidarity, they walked down the tunnel, they don't reappear. uefa, the governing body for football in europe offered to swap that fourth match official for someone else, that offer isn't taken up and the match is to be replayed on wednesday evening with a completely different set of match officials. the referees also being changed, so instead of having an all—romanian team, there is going to be a dutch referee and the rest

iam coming here, two o'clock in the night. two o'clock, and i am here 14 hours.e car park in dover began to fill up. dover is just a two—minute drive over that way, but here is where many people have parked up. i've spoken to people who had to spend the night here in their cars and vans, and you can see, there are registration plates from across the eu. ignaz is not a commercial driver, he's just trying to get home to his family in lithuania for christmas. my kids are waiting for their christmas presents and i'm stuck here in the uk. but for now, he is stranded in a car park. hopefully the government will fix that situation. hopefully. we will wait. we can wait a little bit, but not too much, you know. christmas is coming. 0vernight, part of the motorway down to the coast will be closed as 0peration brock, the new road layout, is deployed to keep traffic flowing. in drizzly and mist—covered dover, many would like to know when the way ahead will be clear. caroline davies, bbc news. the rapid spread of a new variant of coronavirus in southeast england has been blam

i am sort of outside the headquarters, iam in and? in the bureau just by the headquarters. i was just outside on the street and now i am in the bureau next door. we have had a bit of news in the past five minutes. the negotiators have been brought sandwiches for their lunch. we don't know what type of sandwiches but they have been brought in from the uk residency with a staff observing strict covert rules. they have taken the sandwiches and so i'm guessing there is no white smoke or news on the fishing deal yet. i have been told that it will be a good few hours yet, but just to that it will be a good few hours yet, butjust to go through that process again, what we expected some point today, and they are silting today, one official has said it could be later this evening. we are expecting a press conference from ursula von der leyen with boris johnson on the other side of that. they will give the optics, and for some time after that we should get the detail coming through of these 2000 or so pages. for anyone who may have taken a break

iam coming here, two o'clock in the night. two o'clock, and i am here 14 hours. you sleep? in the van. 0ne car park in dover began to fill up. dover is just a two—minute drive over that way, but here is where many people have parked up. i've spoken to people who had to spend the night here in their cars and vans, and you can see, there are registration plates from across the eu. ignaz is not a commercial driver, he's just trying to get home to his family in lithuania for christmas. my kids are waiting for their christmas presents and i'm stuck here in the uk. but for now, he is stranded in a car park. hopefully the government will fix that situation. hopefully. we will wait. we can wait a little bit, but not too much, you know. christmas is coming. 0vernight, part of the motorway down to the coast will be closed as 0peration brock, the new road layout, is deployed to keep traffic flowing. in drizzly and mist—covered dover, many would like to know when the way ahead will be clear. caroline davies, bbc news. british supermarkets were quick to assure customers they

i mean, iam not a lockdown sceptic, but i have argued for other approaches as well, but it seems pretty numbers but also admissions to hospitals. particularly in the south—east of england and parts of the south—east of england but not exclusively that. the concern is allowing people to mix more over christmas and new year, that five—day window in the uk will — a price will be paid for that in the middle ofjanuary. so as ever throughout this crisis, the concern of the uk government is this sense of the nhs, the national health service here being potentially swamped. it is not a uniquely british problem. across europe, you look what has happened in germany germany this week. you look how at sombre angela merkel was with the new restrictions in germany. a very big deal, obviously, for germans to face even tougher restrictions on christmas — a time that really matters in german culture — but i think it's just seen as, we are so close to if not to the finishing line then light at the end of the tunnel, probably in march. when, by which point — certainly in the uk and hopefully in other parts
