mount vernon on, december 18th. but first city to know about the death of washington was here in alexandria alexandria post the very first announcement of washington's death alexandria paper on december 16th it took about a week from december 16th for the news of washington's death to travel all the way even to just new york. so there was a national funeral in philadelphia, which was then the capitol held at the end of the year on, december 26. but in that gap of time where people had known that he had died, people wanted to publicly mourn. half in the old presbyterian meeting house was the home of the memorial services for george washington for the city of alexandria, for memorial services were held here him at the church. lafayette does not find out about the death of george washington until february of 1800. the news has travel across the atlantic. once he finds out, he immediately writes to martha washington expressing his condolences. and martha writes, this is only one of four condolence letters of returned co

so they left mount vernon in the rain in the cold rain, they came back to washington. they stopped at the lincoln memorial and went back to the white house for where churchill was staying. and that evening, they were joined by the ambassadors of the soviet union and china to sign the first declaration of the united nations. and churchill was amazed that his friend franklin roosevelt had persuaded the soviet ambassador to sign a document that called for freedom of religion. and he jokingly said to roosevelt afterwards, if you lose reelection in 1944, i'll ask the king to make you the archbishop of canterbury. but of course, that never happened. so the relationship between those two men is famous. they met many times, but i feel in a way that this this was the special service they had at the beginning of our involvement in the war, calling for god's forgiveness and for his blessing. he really set a tone for anglo-american relations. and i think the importance for us today is to really remember and understand what what that kind of leadership looked like. you have preside

after the service, the leaders went down to mount vernon.nd churchill laid a wreath at the tomb of george and mrs. washington. that itself was a symbol of reconciliation from the revolutionary war. but it was remarkable that during the service, the rector wellsasked the congregation to sing "the battle hymn of the republic." because of the unification during the time after that war. they needed all of us to come together. they left mount vernon in the cold rain. they came back to washington. they stopped at the lincoln memorial and went back to the white house where churchill was staying. and that evening, they were joined by the ambassadors of the soviet union and china to sign the first declaration of the united nations. and churchill was amazed that his friend, franklin roosevelt, had persuaded the soviet ambassador to sign a document that called for freedom of religion. and hejokingly said to roosevelt afterwards if you lose re-election in 1944, i'll ask the king to make you the arch bishop of canterbury. that never happened. the relatio

that is well vernon. one. thank you very much - indeed. that is well vernon. to stay with us.is going to last, it's certainly going to be with us as we go through this working week. in fact, what we're looking at is the cold weather continuing, further the wintry showers for some of us, widespread frosts and the risk of ice on untreated surfaces first thing. so as we go through the days of the week, you can see the colder blues remain across the british isles as as we head towards the weekend, the milder yellows start to come our way so it won't be quite as cold as we're looking at at the moment. what we have at the moment, though, is the morning's rain having moved away, taking some snow showers with it, but further snow showers continuing across northern and southern scotland, northern england, a few in wales, wintry showers here getting into the midlands too and also northern ireland. our temperatures today on your thermometer may say two to about seven degrees, but we've got gusty winds and when you add on the wind chill it will feel subzero for many. even looking at gales

our correspondent will vernon has been following developments from kyiv. the city and two weeks ago, ukraine announced it was withdrawing some of its units from the area to prevent them from being encircled. we didn't expect this to a certain extent. it is not a big city, largely in ruins, as are most of the towns that russia is fighting for in the east. much more important and a bigger loss for ukraine would be if russian forces were now to advance and take the key strategic hub of pokrovsk, nearby. these developments come as ukraine has launched a fresh offensive in russia's kursk region according to ukrainian and russian officials, fighting is continuing there now for a second day and pro— kremlin military bloggers who are posting on social media say that ukraine carried out a large—scale assault there but they say the russian forces so far are managing to successfully hold the ukrainians back. of course, russian forces there have been bolstered by thousands of troops from north korea. the key question will be whether ukraine manages to advance to any s

with russia would only be effective if provided by the us under donald trump. 0ur correspondent will vernonretty difficult to tell what exactly is going on, frankly, in kursk region. ukrainian officials, the russian defence ministry and pro—kremlin military bloggers all reported that ukrainian forces had launched a fresh offensive in the area, and several of those bloggers said that this was a major assault and that it had, you know, caused some surprise, that it had had some effect on the russian forces, but that russia had brought the situation under control. now, we don't really know more than that yet. we haven't had any update from the ukrainians. you'd expect by this time, kind of 2a hours or so after an announcement of the start of an offensive, if it were to be successful, then you'd get some indication that forces are moving forward, perhaps some settlements have been taken. we haven't had any of that yet, but obviously we're standing by for updates from the ukrainians. yeah, meanwhile, will, what are the expectations around how a new donald trump presidency is going to impact the

our correspondent in kyiv, will vernon gave the latest. in its early days, early hours, really. the russian defence ministry, in a statement earlier said that ukraine launched this offensive in the kursk region at around 8:00 this morning local time, and that fighting was ongoing. and you mentioned the head of the ukrainian presidential administration, andrey yermak, he didn't confirm the operation in a post on social media, but he did hint at it saying there was good news from kursk region and that the russians were getting what they deserved. i've also been reading some of the pro—kremlin military bloggers. they've also been saying that ukraine has launched a major operation in the kursk region. but of course, there's a lot we don't know. we don't know what scale this is on and whether it will lead to any change whatsoever in ukraine's pretty tenuous position on the battlefield. how likely is it to change what's happening on the front line in kursk, though? well, it's difficult to say at this stage. i mean, ukraine is on the defensive in

so this may be an unpopular way to answer this question at mount vernon.i'm not sure the first ness of the american revolution is super predetermined or super overdetermined. it happen. first of the sequence of revolutions, and by virtue of having happening. first, it a kind of influence on and directive effect on the subsequent revolutionary movements, but i don't think it's necessary really the case that it must have been. if we want think counterfactual, that is to say think about history as it did not happen. it doesn't strike me that it's necessarily the case that it must have happened there. and so there was a for years especially in the history of the french revolution, people spent a lot of time trying to figure out what was the conjuncture, what was the special combination of factors that led to the french revolution in 1789. and i think the ultimate was we can explain it, but the explanation isn't very interesting. and i think that the sort of first ness of the american revolution is probably similar, that you can make, you can explain, you can g
