rupert murdoch read a lot into it. how is tony blair regarded ? murdoch read a lot into it.blair regarded? we know about his special relationship with president bush. how was he regarded amongst the encircle? again, i think... if nidal nigel farage can be well looked upon, the way the americans look upon it is that these quys americans look upon it is that these guys who seem to have knowledge about what they are talking about. trump likes nigel because he has the sense of thoughts on brexit, etc and he likes people who seem to have some subtle level of experience that could help him. yes. tony blair knows a lot about the middle east. unquestionably. and, yes, he is extremely well—known and well appreciated in the united that. we will not hang him out to dry as they try to do here. so, trump thinks that dogmatic black and white level. ican that dogmatic black and white level. i can seem very much, you know, taking tony blair on. as i said earlier, donald trump worth $12 billion is probably the only guy who could afford tony blair. let us look at the sunday times and the two

earlier i spoke to rupert in tokyo. i asked him how ha rd rupert in tokyo. how hard it will be for toshiba to get their finance hard it will be for toshiba to get theirfinance in hard it will be for toshiba to get their finance in order. it will be quite difficult to do that. it faces a large hurdle to get this mess under control. that is why it has filed for bankruptcy for westinghouse in the us, to try and put a barrier between the rest of the one that business and the westinghouse nuclear business which is where most of the losses have come from. to do that, it will cost a lot of money. this is why it says it will lend up with, perhaps, a y1 trillion, a $9.1 billion net loss for the financial year. that puts toshiba corporation in a difficult situation because it could be delisted from the tokyo stock market if its net losses are greater than its assets. for that reason, toshiba is looking to refinance itself, perhaps by selling off its memory chip business which is believed to be worth around one $3 billion. that isa be worth around one $3 billion. that

rupert, let's start with yours. if i'm allowed two... no, one! your takeaway, come on! when it comes to caution on public finances and investment in the long term, he is making the right judgment. i think a lot of the focus inevitably tomorrow on the front pages is going to be this national insurance rise, that's the risk he has taken. i think it is a sensible change. you can defend the fact that the world is changing, that more and more people are choosing to be self—employed, the margin between employment and self—employment is much less well—defined than it used to be so therefore does it make sense to have these different rates. he has made it progressive, so i think you can defend it. the one thing we can definitely take away, it is unlikely we are facing a snap election. if you are planning a snap election, you don't tend to do sensible but difficult tax changes. is there anybody here who wants to say, forgetting the manifesto breach, say that this is the wrong thing to do? or is it the right thing to do, marina? it depends how you do it. t

viewers that don't know how it fits together, the corporate puzzle, "wall street journal" is owned by rupertompany of fox news, very conservative editorial page so in order for donald trump to get through his agenda, not only is he dealing with a supreme court nominee, looks like who is going to get appointed and move on to the court, he's trying to get health care through. but in addition to that if we go back to his campaign promises he's talking about tax reform, a billion dollar infrastructure bill, the middle eastern turmoil, he's not north korea which is unpredictable at best and then you have the credibility issue which could cause him not only problems with the american people but people within his own party. >> i don't know, mark. we just had conservative radio host john phillips on who said he doesn't have a problem with republicans, they don't like the health care bill but he went further and said his base, things like wiretapping russia, blah blah blah, they're concerned about their pocketbooks, as woe know. >> there's a little truth that and i would take his analysis but i don't

our correspondent rupert wingfiled hayes sent this report.her team is spread out in a line, carefully prodding for signs of life or digging for those buried below. 48 high school students and their teachers had set out up this mountain this morning. conditions were terrible. more than 12 inches, or 34 centimetres, of snow had fallen in just eight hours. at around 9am this morning, the whole new snow sheet slipped, tumbling down the mountainside and engulfing the students. all day, the driving winds kept helicopters at bay. the rescue would have to be done on foot. by late afternoon, teams began bringing the dead and injured down, shrouding them in blue sheets to protect their identities. seven children and one teacher are now confirmed dead. most of them from the same high school. another 30 have been injured, although most of those are not serious. as the rescue operation begins to wind down, the questions will begin. with the heaviest march snowfall in 25 years and avalanche warnings posted, why did this trip go ahead? in a moment a summary

other wiretapping and listening in on people's phone calls and their emails, which is something that rupert murdoch has a l long history wi. it is incredible that the guy who is rumoreded to be trump's pick to replace preet bharara, marc mukasey, among other things, represented roger ailes. and of course, his father was the attorney general. he became e the attornrney genel when preet bharara, whose chuck schumer's chief counsel in the senate, got gonzalez pushed out for dust on amy: that was over to gonzalez. he boot that u.s. attorneys. he is thrown out. and michael mukasey replaces them. and now his son, who is worked for giuliani -- >> formemer u.s. attorney for te general didistrict, supposedly going to be the guy who fills that role. it is in a credible set of full circled of elements. amy: explain more about preet bharara plus investigation into fox. what exactly the allegations are. >> we don't know. there is reportedly a grand jury impaneled. what is been reported by myself and others is that the sec and preet's office are looking into their covering up payments that effectively hi

the "wall street journal," we should underscore, is such a conservative -- >> it's owned by rupert murdoch>> this is yet again someone who's trying to be an ally and friend trying to send him a message much like the republicans allowing the public hearing with james comey. the republicans control congress. they didn't have to allow a public hearing. they exceeded to that on purpose because they've tried privately to tell the president mitigate your behavior but anyone who place assabet that donald trump will change his behavior that's wasted behavior. >> there's one way to look at this editorial. surely there are concerns about factually challenging statements he's made or tweet bud this can be viewed as a challenge for this president to tweet and govern effectively. if he's able to successfully pass some kind of health care he can tweet and chew gum and govern effectively at the same time. if he's not able to, that's a completely different story. >> tweet incendiary comments? >> this is his -- like it or not this is how he communicates with the people. >> and his voters like. >> it as lon
