for the other home nations, well, plenty of tales to tell from their summer holidays. with wales, northern ireland, and england all making it to the european championship in france, hopes were high for a summer to remember. but at times those memories were threatened with being tarnished, violence on the streets involving england fans a worrying reminder for them of tournaments gone by. on the pitch, disappointingly, it was the same story. a late russian equaliser in marseille set the tone for another tournament to forget. a horrible, horrible end to the night. but whilst they were underachieving, northern ireland and wales, well, they were far exceeding expectations. 2—0, niall mcginn! for both, it was a first european championship. and they were going to enjoy it. bale for wales! even a late, late defeat against england could not stop the wales journey. a rare high note for england, but it was wales who carried on the song. ramsey, on side, aaron ramsey with a dink, and wales have the lead! ramsey, weaving it through to bale, he is onside, surely this time... wales 3, russia

you about the weather, or about the best walks in wales. but tonight i'm going on a very different kind ofjourney, a personal one, to find out about a condition which killed my dad. well, to see him suffering like that, it was dreadful. i still miss him now. it's not the same, is it? no. sepsis is taking and changing thousands of lives. people of all ages, across wales. i meet some remarkable people, a mother who lost her teenage daughter. anyone is at risk of sepsis. anybody could fall to this silent killer. doctors on the wards, who tell me how we could save more lives. if i was brought in with sepsis, what sort of treatment would i get? a survivor determined not to let sepsis win. i want my life back. you know, it was nearly taken away from me so suddenly. it's taken more than enough, i think. and i discover the shocking scale of it. we could more than fill this stadium with the number of people that die from sepsis every year in the uk. it's too many. this is where i grew up — barry, or "barrybados" as i call it. i love it down here. we used to come here when we were kids. mu

something of a cold treat over recent hours. the clear skies across england and wales have allowed a frost to form, but we have had some beautiful weather watcher pictures sent to us of the moon and also visible planets. venus was particularly visible earlier in the night. now, it's a cold start to the day. england and wales having a widespread frost to start off with. the lowest temperature down to about —7 celsius, so a freezing start. and there is the risk of some icy stretches first thing across parts of england and wales on untreated roads and pavements to watch out for as well. further north, well, it's not particularly cold here because we have got a lot of cloud across scotland. a brisk wind and some rain to start the day as well, particularly the highlands, pushing into some of the grampian regions too. probably the rain staying off and away from the central belt. a lot of cloud for northern ireland. quite cloudy too for north—west england, the north of wales and north—west midlands. but lots of sunshine to start the day across much of eastern england, the south midl

london, that northern ireland, it says in the independent, wales and scotland, they could be given permission to block brexit plans, but the supreme court is gonna decide on that as well. i didn't realise they were going to rule on that. what is interesting now is the three other home nations, northern ireland, wales and scotland are lining up to make life a lot more difficult for the government in the uk over brexit at the moment. the supreme court ruling at 0930 gmt this morning is likely to confirm what it said previously, that he should be discussed in parliament. the government needs to get this timetable through because they are going to trigger at the end of march article 50 and that is what northern ireland administration wants, a vote on the article 50. we are about to have another election in northern ireland. for the uk have another election in northern ireland. forthe uk government, this is an important sideshow to the whole brexit thing. that is why northern ireland sort of putting in its pennyworth becomes significant in the scheme of things. quite interesting. wales

departments in wales have failed to hit their target. in december, 81% of patients spent less than four hours waiting to be admitted transferred or discharged, compared with 82.9% in november. the target is 95%. let's cross to cardiff now and speak to our correspondent tomos morgan who's at the university hospital of wales. this shows the nhs in wales is suffering the same winter crisis as the nhs throughout the uk. that's right, simon and that was the response from the welsh government was that these winter pressures aren't unique to wales. they are the same across the whole of the uk. let me give you some more stats. there has been a significant increase in the amount of patients that have had to wait more than 12 hours in a&e departments across wales. it is difficult to make a direct comparison with england because the stats are calculated in a very slightly different way for those four hour targets, but the targets remain the same, 95% meant to be seen remain the same, 95% meant to be seen before four hours and nobody should be waiting for 12 hours, however, as i say, several m

was diana, princess of wales, who sat alone, seemingly forlorn, at this monument to love. her marriage to prince charles was in crisis. not the best of associations for their son. but 2a years later, the duke and duchess had their own taj mahal moment. so, what has the visit here today meant to you? a beautiful place. stunning design, amazing. although there was no mention of his mother, it was the duke's chance to create some happier memories here. at home, the duke and duchess of cambridge and prince harry continued to focus much of their time on the subject of mental health. they say they want to change the national conversation, and end the stigma that still surrounds the issue. it is now at the centre of their charity work. in may, they launched heads together — a partnership of different charities all working to provide the best support possible. a number of runners will take on next year's london marathon to raise money for heads together. in a video to promote the work of the new partnership, the royal patrons explained its importance. mental health is just as import

across england and wales, some low cloud and hill fog around. not everywhere is wet but the rain is tending to come and go and edge its way further east. quite a chilly feel in the east to begin with with the cloud and that south—easterly breeze, but milder air is pushing into south—west england and into wales as well. so, on through the day, it's a messy picture, isn't it, with this weather front just gradually taking some outbreaks of rain further east of those areas that start the day dry. northern ireland, though, turning a bit brighter into the afternoon bar the odd stray shower. all the while we're trying to take milder air a little bit further east, so more of wales into that. 11 degrees in belfast but still quite chilly down the eastern side of the uk, or at least a cool feel with the cloud, breeze and some outbreaks of rain. still around some of that wet weather through parts of england and wales, southern scotland on tuesday night and into wednesday morning. elsewhere in scotland, into northern ireland, some clear spells around. the risk of a few fog patches, a few spo

stress fracture of a red and he was advised to rest until he had fully recovered. wales backroads sam warburton says not being national captain will make him hungrier as he gets ready for the six nations tournament next month. he led wales for almost six years but has handed the armband over to alun wyn jones. but has handed the armband over to alun wynjones. the cardiff blues player is in the squad for wales‘s opening game against italy but knows he has competition for his place in the side. i don't know if i will be in the starting 15, that drives me every day when you get out of bed and you are training at home, being professional, you have that goal of wanting to play for wales. that's why i think it will make me more hungry not to have the captaincy. and one of britain's longest serving swimmers and olympic silver medallist kerri anne payne is called time on her career. in the red cup here, she finished eighth in the ten kilometres swimming marathon at rio 2016. in a 13 year career she came second at the bridging olympics in 2008 and she took world marathon titles in 2011 and 2

lovely sunshine across the north west of wales. look at that beautiful sunny skies. now, as the sun has gone down, the temperature has started to drop. the cloud is melting. the winds are falling like inland, so we have that present before widespread frost and the mist and fog again to return, more so the mist and fog again to return, more so than last night. these are towns and city temperatures, but in the countryside they will be lower again, really quite bitter out and about. some frost on the car is and potentially, because see a little bit of drizzle around and some just a few, there could be some ice issues as we head into friday morning's rush hour. some fog on the sports for wales across the peak district and in two parts of yorkshire. also part of pembrokeshire. we have some patchy rain gathering towards the west and thatis rain gathering towards the west and that is a sign of changes taking place during the day but another cold sparked —— start across the west of scotland. but this weather front coming in on friday, the winds are coming from the south, rather than the

. meanwhile, sam warburton‘s six—year spell as wales captain is to come to an end. 0spreys lock alun wyn jones is likely to be named as his successor next week, when interim coach rob howley announces his six nations squad. jones took over from him for the final lions test against australia in 2013, and has also captained wales five times. the german cyclist marcel kittel says he believes tues, or therapeutic use exemptions, have no place in cycling. tues allow the use of banned su bsta nces if athletes have a genuine medical need. but the 23—year—old, who has won stages in all three of the grand tours, believes if people have illness or injury they shouldn't compete. in general, i can only say that the use of these tues i think has no place in our sport any more. i don't think that anyone who is... you know, who is seriously sick, should use those tues. 0r know, who is seriously sick, should use those tues. or if he has to use them because he needs to recover from an injury, or whatever, then he should take time and really recover from that, and then come back afterwards. badou

scotland and wales, and so on, to get the go—ahead to trigger article 50. that was very important as well. here we come to the fallout. we have nicola sturgeon from scotland, tim farron from the lib dems and jeremy corbyn from the labour party and how they will be able to potentially affect how the government goes about negotiating brexit. because they have their own ideas. they have their own ideas, and it is good we area their own ideas, and it is good we are a democracy and good we are discussing it out, but we had a referendum. and i was a firm remainer, we had a referendum and said leave. we probably have to leave, and it is a bit disconcerting when certain parts say let's have another referendum. referenda are not things you can do and do until you get what you want. they are not asking for another referendum, but a route to stay in the single market, do you see what i mean? it is how we leave, but the lib dems asked for a second referendum. some of them even asked for a second referendum. says asked for a second referendum. says a lady from switzerland, where they have referenda ev

and wales, dense, patchy fog. some spots of reasoning. scotla nd patchy fog. some spots of reasoning. scotland and northern ireland, much more mild. patches of rain but later, some sunshine. good morning. first, our main story. the supreme court will rule today on whether it's up to parliament or government to start the process for exiting the european union. the government argues that ministers have the power to trigger the eu's article 50 exit clause. but opponents say they need pa rliament‘s approval to start negotiations. the judgement is significant, as it goes to the heart of where power lies in the uk and could disrupt the prime minister's brexit timetable as our political correspondent, chris mason reports. the european union ignites strong passions. almost seven weeks ago, protesters gathered outside the supreme court as the ii protesters gathered outside the supreme court as the 11 most senior judges in the land gathered inside. power after power of dense legal argument followed on the biggest question in politics. where does power light? is it behind the door here in dow

‘ spell of wales, with a windy spell of weather. central and southern parts of england begin the day under the crowd with mist and fog and drizzle. as we had through the course of the day the cold front moves slowly south east and there will be a spell of wet and windy weather affecting many parts of the country and the rain arriving in the south—east in the middle of the afternoon, but towards the north west it is a return to colder conditions, temperatures dropping with a mix of sunshine and blustery wintry showers. the wind and rain clear from the south east through the course of monday evening, and then it will be colder than we have seen as we move into the early hours of tuesday, but enough of a breeze to keep most of us frost free. a few showers in western areas but clear in the east and maybe misting is once again. on tuesday it looks like another largely dry but cloudy day, some rain around on the hills and coasts in the west, anywhere to the east of high ground that is the best bet of catching sunshine, but also cooler, but in the west we are into double figures. reas

ministers alone. thejudges also said that the devolved administrations in scotland, wales and northern ireland do not have to be consulted. tonight, the bbc has learned that the government will present a brexit bill to parliament as early as this thursday. and the brexit secretary, david davis, had a warning for mps: don't use the debate in parliament to try to stop brexit happening. our political editor laura kuennsberg reports. a hot ticket to see judges rule, is it the prime minister or parliament that is in charge? theresa may wanted to avoid asking mps for permission to start leaving the eu. but businesswoman gina miller fought and fought and fought again, arguing the government simply does not have the power to do it alone. there is no precedent, so can our departure start, so—called article 50, without parliament saying yes? today, by a majority of 8—3, the supreme court rules that the government cannot trigger article 50 without an act of parliament authorising it to do so. the referendum is of great political significance, but the act of parliament which establish

according to councils in england and wales, who say the government should pay for the repairs from fuel duty. the government says it is already putting £250 million into fixing the problem. but the local government association says that is not enough, as duncan kennedy reports. councils fix two million potholes every year. that is about 12,000 for every local authority in england and wales. but it never seems to be enough. now, the councils claim the repair bill could soon reach £14 billion. hard—pressed councils, who are mending, you know, a pothole every five seconds in this country, just cannot get to the core of the problem, which is actually many of our roads are just being patched now. they need to be fully repaired. the councils say the government must do more to help, and suggest increasing fuel duty by a couple of pence a litre, a figure they say the public would support. but it is notjust the cost of repairing all these potholes that seems to be on the increase. today's report also found that the time it is taking appears to be on the rise as well, going up from ten y

for wales, considering our £5 billion of trade and good net surplus with the eu, wales is set to suffer most at the result of the pursuit of a brutal brexit. does the minister accept that doing nothing to counter the loss of the eu convergence funding will serve only to exacerbate the already significant geographical wealth and earnings inequalities which characterise the british state? may i welcome this wide ranging discussion of government policies at this time, even if the broad buffet of good things outlined will unleash a torrent of insatiable demands, not least from the davos business leaders jetting back with their government advisers to barge their way to the front of the table? so will my right honourable friend assure me that his agenda will be set by entrepreneurs? greg clark assured him there would be, as he put it, "no cosy clubs for the incumbents". where does the crucial role of free markets sit in this strategy? it runs through every page of the strategy, mr deputy speaker. laughter at that diplomatic reply. at the start of the day, the writs were moved for two b

. not a nice day at all for england and wales, thick cloud and outbreaks of rain. scotland has had some sunshine. this is the week ahead. more rain on the way. it will become potentially very windy towards the end of the week. we have been looking at the satellite picture for the last day of two. lots of clouds racing in our direction. the first clouds went over today, moving to the east, and behind it in legacy of grey skies and missed and drizzle. huge contrast and the temperatures, frosty in scotland with icy patches. plymouth will wake up to my old weather at 10 celsius. reigning gci’oss weather at 10 celsius. reigning across cornwall and devon. lots of cloud, grey skies and drizzle and missed in places. then we get a southern scotland, abbot of sunshine here, and a nice sunny start, very frosty one. the claims could be —7 01’ even frosty one. the claims could be —7 or even —10 in some areas, but not in major towns and cities. some nice sunshine in scotland and the far north—east of england, but for the bulk of northern ireland, wales and england, it will be cloudy

the southern counties of both england and wales. stretching up to the midlands and the southern parts of norfolk. we still have the cloudy zone all the way from northern ireland, north of wales and northern england and into the central southern parts of scotland. again, there will be one or two spots across northern scotland that will get away to a bright start with sunshine, a touch of frost and then again, some cloud as we go towards the northern and western isles as well. not a good deal changes on friday with the notable exception, at last, at last, we will push some of the murk out of wales and the midlands and maybe coming up to the southern parts of yorkshire. and then we do it all again. where we have had the clear skies, you get a cold start to the weekend. the system arcing its way up to the eastern parts and that is where we will see the cloudiest weather. a big chance for many more of you during saturday to see sunshine. that may not be the case across the south—eastern corner of both england and wales, but i think you'll see more cloud than you have seen of late perhaps

in the midlands, maybe west england and wales. under this cloud it's a mild start for most. a touch of frost in aberdeenshire and certainly for southern wales and southern counties of east anglia it will be a cold day, under relatively clear skies. a widespread frost. but just as we've seen for the past couple of days there will be sunshine working across southern counties of england. cold but bright. the weather front continues to move across central portions of wales and england, where the thickest cloud is. that's where we could see the odd spot of morning drizzle. temperatures about 6—9 celsius as we push in the northern parts. in scotland the cloud produces a few spots of rain. this is the picture through the rest of the day. a cloudy day weatherwise for most of the uk, but again some faring better for sunshine than others. southern counties keep the sunshine. breaks in the cloud across scotland. the best for eastern areas. generally the cloud a little bit higher in the sky across the northern half, compared to yesterday, so at least it will look brighter underneath the cloud

wales overnight. another taking some rain through scotland and northern ireland, with plenty of cloud and hill fog, but mild. where as south—east england and into east anglia there will be some but a touch of frost the tuesday morning. that cold continental air trying to creep in. here is the picture at eight o'clock in the morning. look at these temperatures to start the day in scotland and northern ireland, 9—10. it will be damp after overnight rain. some patchy rain in northern england, just edging towards north wales. cloudy elsewhere in england and into wales, you could encounter some drizzle, but clearer spots in east anglia and south—east england, with a frosty start for some. it means you get some sunshine and there will be more in east anglia and south—east england compared with today. a bit of sunshine today and eastern scotland, it should brighten up here in the afternoon. tomorrow plenty of cloud, some patchy rain in north—west england and north wales, for example. reasonably mild, the further north you are, but further south, the colder it becomes. despite the s

strong, quite gusty wind in places, keeping the fog at bay. that is also into the far west of wales and the far south—west of england. where we have the thickest fog is where we have the frost as well, and that could be giving the icy stretches on untreated surfaces. look at the strength of wind, though, into the far south—west, into the western parts of wales. could be a few fog patches into the welsh marches, into a few spots in yorkshire. it is a windy picture through scotland and northern ireland, north—west england, too. plenty of cloud around, could be quite drizzly in places first thing. now, as we go on through the day, the fog will gradually lift into low cloud, but a cloudier, colder—feeling day into east anglia and the south—east compared with tuesday. some brighter skies, though, into much of south—west england, wales, parts of northern england, keep a fair amount of cloud in northern ireland and scotland. a largely dry picture, but the outbreaks of rain coming into northern ireland and scotland late in the day, and gusty winds. 11 degrees in stornoway, ten i

through more of wales as well, eventually into northern ireland. but it is a messy picture for tuesday as we take outbreaks of rain gradually further east. again the heavy bursts into scotland and drier and brighter weather for northern ireland into the afternoon. again all the while taking something a little bit milder into the uk from the south—west. 11 in belfast. but it is going to feel qute cool in eastern scotland and eastern england with the cloud, outbreaks of rain and the breeze. more rain to come in parts of england and wales especially on tuesday night and into wednesday morning. clearer spells into scotland and northern ireland. so some spots getting cold enough for a touch of frost and a few fog patches. england and wales, though, with all this cloud around, temperatures holding up. on wednesday the weather system still dragging its heels, especially into england and eventually the rain pulling away from the east quite late in the day. a bit of a brighter interlude between the two weather systems before another one comes into northern ireland to parts of wales an

updates. so widespread, freezing fog developing overnight across england and wales. more of a breeze for scotland and northern ireland, and some milder air pushing in here, with outbreaks of rain. but it really will be a cold start for england and wales. you can see most of the temperatures freezing or below, and the fog really will be dense, so take care, give yourself time on the roads. more of a breeze in western parts of england and western wales, so i think fog—free here, maybe a little bit of brightness. quite a contrast across scotland and northern ireland, a milder start to the day than what we saw yesterday morning, temperatures in high single figures. but there will be a lot of cloud, quite a breeze and outbreaks of rain, certainly across western upslopes of scotland. through the day it remains quite cloudy and dull here, maybe some further spits and spots of light rain, some of that pushing towards western wales and the south—west of england, but here, where we hold onto the cloud, it will be relatively mild, temperatures maybe ten, 11 celsius. but further east that yo

. in scotland and the far east of northern ireland into wales and the midlands into south—west england you could have a late shower or regain a few flurries as we late shower or regain a few flurries as we start the day. and through the day as well. for some of us here it isa day as well. for some of us here it is a cold start and a little bit icy inafew is a cold start and a little bit icy in a few stops is what will. there area in a few stops is what will. there are a couple of mist and fog patches, nothing expensive at the moment that the weather is there and the hard frost in east anglia. this is where we will see the clearest weather in the day. the best of the sunshine. a few sunny breaks elsewhere, northern ireland for example but from the far south—west of england, wales, northern england and especially into scotland this afternoon where you have thick cloud the chance relied shower and maybe a flurry, not as cold as it has been in wales in south—west england. some places scraping into double figures it will get frosty overnight and some fog patches will develop. more of th

morning to give a spit of rain in the midlands, maybe north—west england and wales. but under this blanket of cloud it's a mild start for most. perhaps a touch of frost in aberdeenshire. and certainly for southern wales and southern counties of east anglia it will be a cold start to the day. underneath relatively clear skies a widespread frost. but just as we've seen for the past couple of days there will be sunshine working across southern counties of england. cold, but bright. a weather front continues to dangle across central portions of wales and england, where the thickest cloud is. that's where we could see the odd spit of morning drizzle. but temperatures about 6—9 celsius as we push into northern parts. in scotland, the cloud thick enough for a few spots of rain. this is the picture through the rest of the day. a cloudy day weatherwise for most of the uk, but again some faring better for sunshine than others. southern counties of england will keep the sunshine. breaks in the cloud across scotland. the best in eastern areas. generally the cloud is a little bit higher in th

already into south—west england, starting to move through more of wales as well, eventually into northern ireland. but it is a messy picture for tuesday as we take outbreaks of rain gradually further east. again the heavy bursts into scotland and drier and brighter weather for northern ireland into the afternoon. again all the while taking something a little bit milder into the uk from the south—west. 11 in belfast. but it is going to feel qute cool in eastern scotland and eastern england with the cloud, outbreaks of rain and breeze. more rain to come in parts of england and wales especially on tuesday night and into wednesday morning. clearer spells into scotland and northern ireland. so some spots getting cold enough for a touch of frost and a few fog patches. england and wales, though, with all this cloud around, temperatures holding up. on wednesday the weather system still dragging its heels, especially into england and eventually the rain pulling away from the east quite late in the day. a bit of a brighter interlude between the two weather systems before another one comes into no

england and wales, who say the government should pay for the repairs from fuel duty. the government says it's already putting £250 million into fixing the problem, but the local government association says that's not enough, as duncan kennedy reports. councils fix 2 million potholes every year. that is about 12,000 for every local authority in england and wales. but it never seems to be enough. now, the councils claim the repair bill could soon reach £14 billion. hard—pressed councils, who are mending, you know, a pothole every five seconds in this country, just cannot get to the core of the problem, which is actually many of our roads are just being patched now. they need to be fully repaired. the councils say the government must do more to help, and suggest increasing fuel duty by a couple of pence a litre, a figure they say the public would support. but it is notjust the cost of repairing all these potholes that seems to be on the increase. today's report also found that the time it is taking appears to be on the rise as well, going up from ten years in 2006 to 14 years today

england, wales and scotland will rise today, with passengers facing an average increase of more than 2%. public transport campaigners say the fare rises are "another kick in the teeth for long—suffering rail passengers". but the transport secretary, chris grayling, said the government was delivering the biggest rail modernisation programme for more than a century. here's our transport correspondent, richard westcott. punctuality across britain is well below target, strikes have brought one of the busiest operators to a standstill, but none of it stops rail fares going up again today. i think it's a disgrace. particularly as the railways aren't efficient, you know? there's always delays. in terms of the increase, well, it's fair. you've got to pay for things, if it includes paying for wages and people earning more money. across britain, the average ticket will be 2.3% more expensive. season tickets, among the fares regulated by the government, go up less at i.9%. it follows years of stinging rises. even allowing for inflation, fares have risen 25% since the mid—1990s. season tickets

ten—man afc wimbledon. wales make alan win jones beating ten—man afc wimbledon. wales make alan winjones their captain. hello. we've had six fa cup third—round replays tonight. the two non—league sides left in the cup we re non—league sides left in the cup were playing and both are into the fourth round. lincoln left it very late against championship side ipswich. goalless after 90 minutes. it looked as though we'd have extra time, but cue the deleerm in extra time, but cue the deleerm in extra time —— delerium. for one night only, the centre of attention for this cathedral city lay at the bank, home of lincoln city. the ipswich boss admitted lincoln should probably have won the first time. it was a woeful first—half showing. 59 places between them, you'd not have known it. choice words from the manager sparked something better from the tractor boys. still they ploughed on without any great success. still the best of the game fell to lincoln players. but still 0—0. right up until the 90th minute. commentator: arnold to win the cup tie! lincoln city are through. in

rooftops, but some thick fog and a hard frost into parts of wales, as you can see from our weather watchers. there will be a lot of crisp afternoon sunshine around, but more cloud for parts of south—west england along the south coast running into northern ireland. this area of cloud will expand through northern england, east wales and parts of the midlands and east anglia. patchy drizzle begin to develop and a few showers may turn up in cornwall. where you get the sunshine, it does not make a great deal of difference to the temperature. but by this stage, the bulk of the fog will have cleared, so there will be some sunshine across a large part of wales. the cloud is starting to increase towards the east and north—east. and from the south, the cloud is pushing into northern ireland. more sunshine will spread into scotland compared with recent days. a dull and damp end to the day in northern england. some drizzle around, which will be wintry over the tops of the hills. it is not amounting to much, just flurries. a few showers overnight into south—west england and wales. but wit

eventually but they will be standing water to begin the day. across england and wales, low cloud, hill fog, not everywhere is wet but the rain will tend to come and go and edge further east. quite chilly to begin with in the east with cloud and south—easterly breeze but milder air is pushing into western england and wales as well. on through the day it is a messy picture with this weather front gradually taking outbreaks of rain further east to those areas that started the day dry. northern ireland turning brighter in the afternoon barring the odd stray shower. all the while trying to take milder air a little further east, morath wales into that, quite chilly down the eastern side of the uk, still some chilly weather around. southern scotland on tuesday night and into wednesday morning will see some rain. some clear spells around northern ireland and western scotland, a few spots seeing a touch of frost. too cloudy and wet for any frost in england and wales starting on a damp note. eventually the rain pulls away from eastern parts of england on through wednesday afternoon. there is a bri

, scotland and wales a kick in the teeth. the government says the rises below average wage increases and the money is intended to of the network. joe lynam reports. if you have to pay out thousands of pounds for a rail season ticket, your new year has not started very well. with the exception of northern ireland, the average ticket will be 2.3% more expensive from today. season tickets, which are set by the government, go up by 1.9% — still considerably more than inflation at the moment. even allowing for inflation, fares have risen by a quarter over the past 22 years. people are not getting paid more money. i don't think the train workers are getting paid more money. so where is the money going? it is a disgrace, particularly as the railways aren't efficient. you know, there's always delays. it's making me feel disappointed, angry, not a great start to 2017. the latest rises will especially sting commuters, who have had to put up with strikes and punctuality problems, insufficient seating and the impact of the weather. but the government says it is an unprecedented modernising program

of a cold treat over recent hours. the clear skies across england and wales have allowed a frost to form, but we have had some beautiful weather watcher pictures sent to us of the moon and also visible planets. venus was particularly visible earlier in the night. now, it's a cold start to the day. england and wales having a widespread frost to start off with. the lowest temperature down to about —7 celsius so a freezing start. and there is the risk of some icy stretches first thing across parts of england and wales on untreated roads and pavements to watch out for as well. further north, well, it's not particularly cold here because we have got a lot of cloud across scotland. a brisk wind and some rain to start the day as well, particularly the highlands, pushing into some of the grampian regions too. probably the rain staying off and away from the central belt. a lot of cloud for northern ireland. quite cloudy too for north—west england, the north of wales and north—west midlands. but lots of sunshine to start the day across much of eastern england, the south midlands, southe
