that's the northern ireland secretary, let's talk to chris buckler, our northern ireland's correspondentw close is the government to stepping in? the problem for them is that really, something ‘s got to be done soon. it's worth putting it in context. there's been no power—sharing executive here since january and the government is limping along. civil serva nts government is limping along. civil servants are doing some business but they cannot make any decisions which has a real impact on budgets and public services, especially the health service. that is causing some public concern, maybe even some public concern, maybe even some public anger. while the dup want to get back into government with each other, mainly over the deadlock, there does not seem to be a practical way out of it, because the dup and sinn fein do not agree on these issues. this key issue is from sinn fein, the call for an irish language act to give it an official status. the union are deeply against it and status. the union are deeply against itand sinn status. the union are deeply against it and sinn fein sevigny to

for a number of places, northern ireland, scotland, northern england, it stayed rather cloudy. buttermere, in cumbria. other places had glorious sunshine. good parts of southern england, and the midlands, and into wales had the best of that. where the sunshine came out, it became warm, with temperatures up to 21 celsius. that is 70 in fahrenheit. notably, across scotland, around the moray firth, temperatures were about six degrees above average for this time of year. looking at the weather, as we start the day today, we have a band of rain pushing east. as it does so, it will bump into high—pressure across scandinavia and europe. so it will be a slow—moving front. quite often, it will be weak as well. starting with a band of rain to start the day for western scotland. damp in northern ireland, and spits and spots of rain across west wales, devon, and cornwall, too. 12 to 15 degrees in towns and cities. across central england it should stay dry with sunny spells all day. high cloud in the sky will make it hazy at times. you can see the rain does not move far from where it starts

jobs could be under threat in northern ireland because of the dispute. the prime minister said she would press donald trump to resolve the matter. i have already raised the issue with president trump ina raised the issue with president trump in a telephone call and i will raise the issue of bombardier with them when i meet him again later this week and i will be impressing on him the significance of bombardier to the united kingdom and particularly to jobs bombardier to the united kingdom and particularly tojobs in northern ireland. let us talk to our correspondent in northern ireland, chris page who is in belfast. at least both leaders have been speaking about this, so that perhaps suggests that things might improve for the workforce there in belfast? yes, i think people here in belfast will recognise the fact that the british government and the canadian government are very much engaged in this issue. you heard the prime minister there are saying that she intends to speak to president trump again about this issue this week, she has already spoken to him

whereas david davis has consistently said, we cannot make progress on northern ireland if you are so focused on only talking about the divorce bill and the withdrawal, we want to talk about our future relationship. initially, david davis accepted this timetable, we're just going to do with withdrawal and then the future relationship and towards the latter weeks of the summer, he then goes on this massive offensive, actually, we cannot solve the northern ireland situation unless you allow us to move forward and talk about other things. it is notjust northern ireland, they are talking about legislating to make sure foods and things like prosecco are protected so we cannot have cheap copies and other things. the essential message is, the commissioner is saying, you wa nt to is, the commissioner is saying, you want to move on and talk about other things? no. we want to stick to the timetable, if you want to use imagination, use your own. the telegraph, theresa may's brexit plans in disarray. i will return to the scene that some people are pointing to... the eu had telegraphed a long time

in terms of wages, brought into northern ireland, we are talking in around £200 million per annum. num. so ireland, we are talking in around £200 million per annum. so there is a huge ramification for northern ireland if this preliminary decision stands. so therefore, we will be doing everything that we can to press the prime minister and we do believe the prime minister has been listening to what we have been saying about the importance of this, not only to northern ireland, but for the united kingdom, so we will continue to press her and to do everything that we can to try to secure those jobs and secure the future of the c—series and bombardier. emma little—pengelly, thank you. ryanair has announced that it will extend its current daily flight cancellations until next march. europe's biggest airline had already cancelled as many as 50 flights a day throughout the end of september and into october after the airline's boss, michael o'leary, admitted a "significant management failure" in scheduling pilots' leave. we're now hearing the cancellations will go on into next year. well, o

we have already seen heavy rain this morning across northern ireland.ing. the rain becoming lighter and patchy across wales and south—west england and the same will happen across scotland and north west england later on this afternoon. that leaves the central and eastern england with liza dry weather and sunny spells and the sunshine coming out, as well, in northern ireland as the cloud and rain clears through. overnight, the dregs of that front will bring a rather cloudy night. i'll deny for england and wales, a few patches of rain around. clearest guide to the north and west weather could be fog patches and it will turn cold again in the countryside across the north west. the weekend, we will all see some sunny spells but perhaps taking a while to come through. it will become warm but we will have rain coming our way for western areas on sunday. saturday, quite a bit of cloud first thing. some low over the hills, quite misty, patches of rain possible over hills. the clouds will break up, sunny spells coming through. in the sunshine, we are looking at

in terms of northern ireland, how much of all the jobs, 4500 in northern ireland, are devoted to the aircraft solely. this dispute in some ways is small fry compared to the potential challenges, potential competition coming down the track for both these companies. exactly. china has had the ambition of going into the commercialjet aircraft market and in may this year had the first test flight of the c—919. this will be sold in three years time and it's a state—owned company, all the chinese airlines have placed advanced orders, it has over 700 of those, and of course there will be significant subsidies from china. it's a bit like the humans fighting in game of thrones while the white walkers are massing to the north. professor, thank you very much indeed. the instant messaging service whatsapp appears to have been totally blocked in china. while the authorities have previously restricted the service this seems to be the biggest clamp—down so far. the facebook owned app has struggled for market share in china and this will be seen as a blow to it's ambitions in the country. 0ur corres

proper solution is northern ireland at the moment.hat are you proposing actually on citizens that is going to be a big improvement? theresa may has written an article in the newspaper trying to appeal to the czech republic people to explain our position but in the end at the moment, we are going down a blind alley. i hope we come to better. philip hammond has got some good ideas. he seems to be going back. david davis says we should be talking about the structure post brexit, the original idea was we will not permit any money until there's going to be negotiation. the divorce bill, if you like, and what will happen to the children afterwards? the eu made it clear that we need to settle the financial. what they said in the 20 billion euros is what the prime minister offers without some, is nowhere near enough to anything. britain has still to say what the financial settlement will be for what it has committed itself to and we are back to square one in some ways. we need to set out the para meters ways. we need to set out the parameters

scotland, england and northern ireland were all in action tonight.ed to beat lithuania to keep alive their hopes of reaching the world cup in russia next year, and they rose to the challenge, while england and northern ireland also won. james burford reports. where there's a will, there's a way, and gordon strachan‘s sons of scotland certainly showed the way to russia 2018 is not over yet. a win was all that would do, and a winning performance was what the players delivered from the get go. stuart armstrong strong—armed his way to the scoresheet, the perfect start. but it got better — liverpool's new man, andy robertson, showing why some are calling him scotland's gareth bale, strachan clearly impressed. two goals to the good, how about a third? three points in the bag, three goals, too. james mcarthur following up some quick thinking with his own sharp finish. in malta, england faced 30—degree temperatures and a resilient defence, one that eventually wilted when dele alli found harry kane. ryan bertrand's first international strike came from a full

but we're seeing but weather front moving in, so for northern ireland and west of scotla nd northern west of scotland outbreaks of rain and in east of scotland rather more patchy with dry spell. the rain just encroaching into western counties of wales during the afternoon. for much of east wales and west of england, staying dry and feeling quite warm. but of course you will feel no benefit from that way you have the rain in northern ireland and scotland. some of that crossing a little bit further east. but most of it stuck out as we start thursday through south west england, white in places and slowly moving east during the day. ahead of that quite warm and behind it turning colder with some showers. hurricane maria as you can see on the satellite, a potentially catastrophic major hurricane continued to head north west and that is how it is described for the virgin islands again and puerto rico as it moves right across during wednesday and after that it comes during wednesday and after that it co m es close during wednesday and after that it comes close to the dominican republic and t

this impacts across northern ireland, the republic of ireland, and the uk as a whole.we? we could be, but unfortunately the way the itc works if you were to deliver a plane to america today, you would have to pay the penalty. it seems unjustified that you have no natural justice in terms of an appeal before any penalties are levied against you, but unfortunately that's the way it works. the cost of the plane yesterday and the difference with the cost today? well, the difference yesterday and today is a 220% levy put into any planes going into the us. it doesn't affect the rest of the markets across the globe and hopefully bombardier can pick up more orders. we are aware that they are in talks with a lot of companies at this moment in time about taking it on because the plane has proved it on because the plane has proved it is worth in terms of how well it is doing in full efficiencies and environmental issues, so it is proach and it is worthwhile and really the technology that's in belfast is second to none throughout the world. davey, thank you very much. david thomps
