infact, he spoke to this claim of abuse of power.this claim of abuse of power. infact, he said, quote, if you make a high crime and misdemeanour out of going to the courts, it is an abuse of power. it is your abuse of power. you are doing precisely what you are criticising the president of doing, abuse of power. there is a house rule, madam speaker, that requires — not allows, but requires — that the minority get a day of hearing, which we asked for multiple times. they broke this rule. they didn't allow us broke this rule. they didn't allow us to have a minority day of hearing. they didn't want to hear about the facts of this case, because it was never about the fa cts , because it was never about the facts, because there was no crime. it is about a personal political vendetta. now let's talk about obstruction of congress, as they make up these terms to impeach a president because they didn't find a crime. and they were looking. it has been an impeachment in search of a crime. but they talk about obstruction of congress and say the

not all the time, infact, by mild, wet, and windy. in fact, by around about thursday, temperatures could be in the low teens across the south of the low teens across the south of the uk, not very festive. so the clouds across not just the uk, not very festive. so the clouds across notjust the uk but many parts of europe and incidentally, it's a very very mild further east across europe as well, temperatures in some areas or 10 degrees above the average for the time of year. so just a little pocket of cold air across scotland and northern england. temperatures here are around freezing or so by the early hours of tuesday morning. you can see the blue colours there indicating the air frost, but different there in the southeast and east anglia around 5—7d. we have a cloud, the drizzle, the weather frontier, slightly warmer air. tomorrow stays damp, and probably quite cloudy across much of the southeast, may be the midlands as well, but many of us will get some decent weather tomorrow, that will be sunshine for sure. but a fairly nippy day

yea rs, has barely budged in the last 11 years, in fact, has barely budged in the last 11 years, infacthe last 11 years, in fact, it will buy you £1 less after you take account of inflation than it would in 2008. that has reduced income inequality, the gap between the low paid and average paid, but it hasn't helped to improve the fortunes ofjoe average in the middle. you have a strange picture where you have a record high employment, 3 million more people employed than there were a decade ago, and yet peoples individual fortunes have not improved that much and a lot of the economic growth we have seen has just been adding people to the economy, not making individuals better off. small firms will say, we wa nt to better off. small firms will say, we want to pay people more but how do we afford it, without going into productivity, which is falling at the moment, and that is very difficult. andy verity, thank you. from tomorrow, all trains in the country should be fully accessible for disabled users. around 1200 carriages, though, are not, and ten train operators have applied for temporary

infact, not country, merkel wins in both countries. in fact, not that it's a competition...here modi is most searched, often in countries where there is a lot of expat indians living abroad, another credit to the fact the internet allows you to take your culture with you wherever you go. robin moroney speaking to me a little earlier. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme: another christmas in makeshift churches. we report on the plight of christians in the indonesian province of aceh. also on the programme: a safe landing for boeing's starliner space capsule, after its failed mission to the international space station. the world of music has been paying tribute to george michael, who's died from suspected heart failure at the age of 53. he sold well over 100 million albums in a career spanning more than three decades. the united states' troops have been trying to overthrow the dictatorship of general manuel noriega. the pentagon says it's failed in its principle objective to capture noriega and take him to the united states to face drugs charges.

. >> i could have gotten a c-charlie ijob infact i was goie another professor from columbia said hellwould you like to write a book about the swedish judicial system? well, this is a part of her life you will not hear generally discussed but you were in on a question that normally doesn't come up. this was an irresistible offer because here i was in my 20s before i turned 30 i would give up between hard covers. we married at th the same monthi graduated from cornell, so i never lived on my own. i went from a college dormitory to being married and i had what mighhave whatmight be called thr itch. i wanted to see if i could manage on my own and the deal was i would go to sweden. my daughter would be taken care of by her father for about six weeks and when she finished school she came and joined me in sweden. i got that out of my system and i never again yearned to become my own. the opportunity to learn about equal sure in a language i knew nothing at all about. >> did you go to sweden with her? she went back to sweden this year. it was the 50th anniversary of my honorary degree from th

with new proposals, new ideas, in moments when, in fact, new proposals, new ideas, in moments when, infactite of my desire, will still need the un into it. before we come back to what has been a refrain from you throughout, might is right, let's just from you throughout, might is right, let'sjust think, from you throughout, might is right, let's just think, perhaps, from you throughout, might is right, let'sjust think, perhaps, whether there is some wisdom and what donald trump is saying. let us think about afghanistan were you were an employee in 2007— 2008. so you know afghanistan very well. in our seems from secret papers are blessed by the watchman bows that came from an internal audit of america's success in afghanistan over an 18 year period, the americans are now admitting to themselves that their intervention, from beginning to end, has pretty much been a disaster. it has pretty much been a disaster. it has cost countless billions. it hasn't tackled the military threat from the taliban. they still hold swathes of territory across the country. worse than that, the country. worse tha

infact, we that is absolutely a concern we are hearing.ganisations like the fsb. two things we would say. firstly, it's really important that as we look to the future path of the minimum wage, we understand affordability for business really matters. the chancellor set out a plan for raising the minimum wage to 66% of average earnings or about £10.50 by 2024. i think politicians need to understand that that kind of rise doesn't come for free. they will need to be looking at the kind of supportive policies around that that will help businesses, particularly looking at things like tax policies, national insurance and also things like business rates and the apprenticeship levies, so small firms can afford rises going forward. i think everyone agrees we wa nt forward. i think everyone agrees we want the minimum wage to rise but it has to do so sustainably. it's a difficult balance if you are a small company, if your wage bill goes up, you likely employ fewer people? so far we have not seen large scale evidence of that. where we have seen eviden

this is west sussex, outbreaks of rain infact this is west sussex, outbreaks of rain in fact there hasngs will eventually turn drier. and also milder as well. for some of the flood affected regions that will be good news. still about 30 flood warnings across england. patchy rain for many of us across the afternoon, especially the south—west and south wales. driest in the south—east of scotland. —— north east. eventually the wet weather when he's away lingering for longest in the south—west but then later more rain and strengthening wind moves in across the north—west of the uk. most us are frost free nights, enough cloud, just a bit of chilly in the east, things turning milder as the warm front pushes its way eastwards a cross as the warm front pushes its way eastwards across the uk. it will be bringing this milder air, the wind coming in from the south—west of that when direction setting with us over the next three days so it will be quite a mild end to 2019. thankfully, today is looking drier across the bulk of england and wales, perhaps patchy rain across northern england. scotland

infact, you overnight, 10 degrees. it is very mild!icating where we are pulling the warm air from, all the way from the azores and just the contrast really from what we would expect more typically at this time of year. tomorrow, there is a hope we could mix in drier airfrom the continent across england and wales that could in turn allow some more fun trying to show —— show itself. northern ireland and scotla nd itself. northern ireland and scotland possibly the driest and brightest spots of the rain for the northern and western isles but around the moray firth tomorrow afternoon, positively balmy, up into the midteens in spots! 10—11 to the southis the midteens in spots! 10—11 to the south is still above average for the time of year. and on into the new week as we approach new year, well, still mild on monday but temperatures start to slide away through new year's eve on tuesday as we start to bring the weather in from in or northerly direction but still dry weather around for new year's day, still dry weather around for new yea r‘s da

infact, nancy impeachment must descend over to the senate. a year. there simply is no timetable, again. even though there is the impeachment and removal of a sitting us president is clearly within the bounds of the congress, there simply aren't the details or the timelines in terms of how this all is supposed to play out. and so many of these rules, they are operating on rules that operated either in the clinton or the nixon impeachment process. but now we are heading into uncharted territory, because clearly nancy pelosi wants to see something in terms of how the trailer will be laid out. she made clear tonight she will not name the managers that will adjudicate the case, because she does not see a process, and she does not believe that the process will be fair. ok. say it happens, whenever it happens. what is the actual likelihood that he is going to be found guilty by the senate? likelihood that he is going to be found guilty by the senate ?|j likelihood that he is going to be found guilty by the senate? i think thatis found guilty by the

infact, thiis ofering the president due process. he's not taking advantage of it. so there's plenty of evidence. and so i don't understanwhat mr. collins is talking about. you notice they don't want to ta abo that phone cal they don't want to talk about a president holding up $391 million of congressionally appropriated aid to a country that is under attack,ssault, and invasion by russia. you'll notice that what happens here is that it wkens their national security and our national security. who benefited from that attempt to withhold aid and e fact, the witdhholding of ai? putin. putin's russia. that's what this is about. americans should have a chill from the horrifying obstruction by this president. and the use of his ofice, the abuse of his office for personal political gain. >> woodruff: well, it is not just congressman collins and now, the people whpport the president, who are listening to that argument, who are saying they too don't hear solid evidence. ocrats de can the dem to put a compelling case together that the republicans and their supporters say they

a bit ago, they started which is behind here, infact, we a bit ago, they started which is behind hereast us. the line of police at the back, which has been bringing up the rear, there were blocked up here for a good couple of hours earlier on in the afternoon. as we waited for the front of the demonstration to move. it's turned out that they were being stopped by these clashes, so—called, in the republic. —— quite how serious they were, its hard to guess. i suspect they could've been a lot worse. there were a couple of bonfires set alight by radicals and a bit of tear gas in response. but, the very fact that the demonstration is not obviously proceeding, suggests that it wasn't that serious, and they have been cleared away. there was a big fear though that this demonstration, which has drawn tens of thousands of people could degenerate into the kind of trouble we saw over the last year in the yellow vest demonstrations. but ina way, the yellow vest demonstrations. but in a way, today's demonstration is a throwback to an older more traditional style of french demonstration, one in whic

infact, he exactly what the president might say.d jeremy corbyn during this campaign, namely that you re—elect boris johnson corbyn during this campaign, namely that you re—elect borisjohnson and he will ensure that the nhs is on the table in trade talks with donald trump. yet we heard mr trump being unequivocal, he is not interested in the nhs even if it was presented to him ona the nhs even if it was presented to him on a silver platter, also suggesting he didn‘t know why it had been raised as an issue, even though it was in fact he who raised it as an issue back here injune in a news conference saying everything should be on the table. but i think team johnson will be mightily relieved that he has, as it were, provided them with a get out ofjail card to labour claims that the nhs would be on the table. elsewhere, we heard from the prime minister, out and about campaigning in salisbury today. interestingly, he also gave a categorical assurance that no part of the nhs, including pharmaceuticals, would be on the table for trade talk

it will be interesting to see later on today, in fact interesting to see later on today, infact in interestingcourt. so far, she has been sitting quietly listening to the proceedings. the very fa ct listening to the proceedings. the very fact that she is year shows the importance that she and the gambia and everyone is placing on the proceedings here today. thank you very much. we can go live now to kathmandu and talk to kayleigh long, a journalist who is usually based in myanmar‘s capital yangon. it is extraordinary to see how they are defending them against accusations of genocide. on the day 20 years ago, that she was awarded the nobel peace prize. yes, absolutely. it is quite possible this is the first time she has had these allegations put to her in such a way. although people report she is unwilling to engage with any talk of specific acts. it is really quite something. and i was saying there that the fact she has gone to the hague has been very well received. tell us more about the reaction from her country. well, it is very much a siege mentality there. there has been an attack on the

infact, there was a story nbc today that i wanted to read to you that talks about some of the concernsbout government surveillance. the unsupported claims that president donald trump has made for two years about the fbi's russia investigation, calling it a witch hunt cooked up by his political opponents, the conclusion by the justice department watchdog of the -- that the probe was justified was big news. but the other major findings of the inspector general's report, that there were serious problems with the way the fbi obtained a secret national security warrant to spy on a trump campaign aide, were also noteworthy, yet somewhat overshadowed i the bigger headlines. for years, civil liberties activists have been warning that the process for obtaining secret warrants to spy on americans under the foreign intelligence surveillance act was dangerously part because it is one-sided. the government tells judges behind closed doors why the spying is justified, and there is no what he in the room -- nobody in the room representing the target to question that evidence. prosecutors have said th

infact, it are living very close to an active volcano. still missing. but the authorities here are losing hope. they fear that those people may never be found. danny, thank you for that update. we will be speaking to an eyewitness in a few minutes' time for you, one of those who was actually on the boat, new first aid, who was helping people who received burns from being on the island —— knew first—aid. you forget how terrifying it must have been for the people on the island. and also for how distressing it was for people who saw what happened and had to help people with very serious injuries at this stage. much more throughout the morning. that is our main story this morning. borisjohnson and jeremy corbyn are concentrating on what they regard as vote—winning issues for their parties, with 48 hours to go before the polls open in the general election. the prime minister will say that only a majority conservative government can break the brexit deadlock, while the labour leader will set out his plans for the nhs. let's talk now to our poli

infact, brexit time. i know you had lisa nandy on earlier.e got to really take a deep long look at this. let's not make any immediate reactions and jump not make any immediate reactions and jump straight into it. thank you very much indeed. it's been a momentous few hours here at westminster and we'll have plenty more reaction throughout the day here on election 2019 but for now let's have a look at some of key moments as the drama of the night unfolded. cheering. i want to thank the people of this country for turning out to vote in a december election. that we didn't wa nt to december election. that we didn't want to call but which i think has turned out to be an historic election. yes! i will not lead the party in any future general election campaign. i will discuss with our party to ensure there is a process now of reflection. borisjohnson leads the conservatives to a resounding election victory. cheering. they win their largest majority since the thatcher years, gaining scores of seats from labour. borisjohnson now has the majority he wan
