In a bid to break political deadlock in washington. Premier League Football clubs hold a minutes applause for cyrille regis, the 59 year old former engand player who has been described as a trailblazer for black players in modern english football. And how Predictive Analytics can help in emergencies. Thats all in click in half an hour, here on bbc news. Good afternoon. Welcome to bbc news. Welcome to bbc news. The Us National Government has officially shut down, a year to the day after Donald Trump Took Office as president. Senators had failed to agree a stop gap budget amid a bitter dispute President Trumps republicans and the opposition democrats over immigration and border security. The impasse will affect hundreds of thousands of federal workers, but essential Government Services will carry on. The recriminations have already begun. David willis reports from washington. The theys are 49. The vote to keep funding was short of the majority needed, the last hope of avoiding an embarrassing government shut down failed three fifths of the senators not agreed to. The billed that passed in the house of representatives 24 hours earlier but at issue aside from the money itself, was how that money was spent. Democrats sought a provision in the bill protecting the so called dreamer, 800,000 young people brought into this country illegally, whose right to remain is due to be revoked in a few weeks time. The democratic leader in the senate met with President Trump for more than an hour, at the white house, but the two men failed to reach a deal. The way things went today, the way you turned from a bipartisan deal, its almost as if you were rooting for a shut down. And now we will have one. And the blame should crash entirely on President Trumps shoulders. Many republicans support efforts to legitimise the status of the dreamer, but they want it tied to other provisions, such as President Trumps border wall, and not made pa rt trumps border wall, and not made part of a government funding bill. What we have just witnessed on the floor was a cynical decision by Senate Democrats to shove aside millions of americans for the sake of irresponsible political games. The government shut down was 100 avoidable. The last government shut down here in 2013 lasted 16 days, and led to around 800,000 government workers being placed on temporary leave. For President Trump, the man who brands himself the deal maker in chief, this is a political embarrassment. The first day of the government shut down coincides with the First Anniversary of his inauguration. David willis, bbc news, washington. The french president has suggested the uk could get a bespoke trade deal with the European Union after brexit, but again warned it could not expect full access to the Single Market unless it accepted its rules. In an interview to be broadcast in full on the Andrew Marr Show tomorrow, Emmanuel Macron said he respected, but regretted, the brexit vote. A bespoke special solution for britain . Sure. This special way should consistent with the preservation of the Single Market, and our collective interest, and you should understand that you cannot by definition have the full access to the Single Market, if you dont tick the Single Market, if you dont tick the box, and to get full access to the box, and to get full access to the Single Market, you need contribution the budget, and you have to accept. The freedoms. And you have to accept the jurisdiction. As soon as you decide not to join this precondition, it is not full access, so this precondition, it is not full access, so it is something perhaps between this full access and a trade agreement. And you can see that full interview tomorrow on the an due mar show. Two children who went missing in sheffield yesterday evening have been found. Police launched an appeal to help find Marcel Menyhart whos 12 and 13 year old Marcela Menyhartova who went missing last night at around eight oclock in the evening. They were last seen at the citys ice rink near the suburb of attercliffe but were found safe and well in the city this afternoon. Mary lou mcdonald, a member of the irish parliament, is to succeed gerry adams as president of sinn fein. As the only candidate to be nominated, mary loud macdonald will formally be elected at a special conference next month. Mr adams is retiring after leading the Republican Party for more than 30 years. The chair of the work and pensions select committee, frank field, has criticised auditors for not raising concerns about carillion before the construction giant collapsed, with debts of around one and a half billion pounds. Mps on the committee have begun an inquiry into the way carillions pension deficit was handled. Their labour chairman says regulators should have stepped in much earlier. 0ur political correspondent, emma vardy is here with me in the studio. Andrew marr show. Sniet so there are two concerns here, the the first is the auditors kpmg, take us through that. Yes, so the question that frank field is raising here, is why alarm bells werent ringing sooner because kpmg have been auditing the accounts of carillion for many years, they had give them a clean bill of health to say they are a going concern, which means they have been judged to from the the cash flow to continue operating for the foreseeable future, after having been given that sign off by kpmg, just a few months later, carillion were then looking to be in serious trouble so there are questions ore how the judgments we re are questions ore how the judgments were made, and with such a big black hole in the Pensions Fund, now known to be round £600 million or almost that, you know, why werent the auditors picking that up sooner, why was that clean bill of health given . So it is notjust the bosses of the company carillion facing the scrutiny here, frank field says it is the auditors too who need to be questioned over this. We will as a committee be looking at why did we reach this position, why did kpmg sign off these accounts, saying this is a going concern as a company, for the next 12 months, how did that mislead, if they wanted to be misled, the directors of the company, who the chief executive paid himself almost £2 million, based on a Prosperous Company during that year, all those we want to again unravel, but it brings us back to when we reported on bhs, when we made clear recommendations to the government, for changes in the law and we are still awaiting even a green or white paper what the government might do. So any response from kpmg themselves . Yes, so in recent days, they have obviously been getting a lot of questions about their role in all of this. They previously said to newspapers the audits were done properly and responsibly and kpmg will co operate with any inquiry. But as you see, frank field is very keen to put the spotlight on them here, because it was as a result of the sign off from kpmg that then the shareholders of the company carillion were continued to be paid big dividend, the bosses taking home big dividend, the bosses taking home big salaries and in light of that colla pse big salaries and in light of that collapse that looks like a very poor judgment. Concern also about the pensions, the deficit, the hole that has appeared there. How worried are people about this . That is right. Incredibly worried of course, because with that 600 million black hole in the Pensions Fund what that 110w hole in the Pensions Fund what that now means is that people who are members of these Pension Funds could see a cut to their pension, they could increase much less than they we re could increase much less than they were hoping so that will have a huge impact on peoples future, that undermines the confidence people have who are members of pension schemes like this, if you look at the numbers of course it looks like 28,000 members of the pension schemes connected with carillion, and then, wider than that, we dont have very clear answers as to all these Subsidiary Companies that are owed money because of work they have undertaken by carillion, some 30,000 firms owed money here, some banks have set up loans, but that is seen to bea have set up loans, but that is seen to be a short term sticking plaster, so to be a short term sticking plaster, so really we are not anywhere near the end of this, in the days and weeks and months to come. The ripple effects will continue to be felt. Thank you for that. The Prime Minister theresa may has done an interview with the german newspaper bild in which she says there wont be a second brexit referendum. She also assures germans living in the uk and brits in germany that their status is secure and they can stay. Earlier our berlin correspondent jenny hill said mrs may was trying to provide confidence and stability to the germans. I think the primary message here is, one of attempted reassurance, mrs may knows of course that germans prize stability perhaps above all else and that is why we are hearing again that german living in britain will be allowed to stay once brexit comes into force, and that there will be no second referendum, but i think secondly and importantly, she is trying to nudge that reminder as if germany needs the reminder of the importance of the trading relationship between the two countries. Mrs may will know that german Business Leaders are rattled. They are concerned about what happens, particularly if britain leaves the eu without any kind of deal at all. The trading relationship is very important to germany. So there will be interest when she says she wants this free trade deal, a special deal that he is unlike any other in existence, people will want to know what she means by that, it is worth bear in mindling, mrs may is unlikely to shift the german position, the bottom line hasnt changed, if she wa nts bottom line hasnt changed, if she wants britain to have access to the Single Market, they will have to accept freedom of movement too. That is germanys bottom line, yes a nyta kes a is germanys bottom line, yes anytakesa dim is germanys bottom line, yes anytakes a dim view of any attempt to divide the remaining 26 member states, and try and negotiate something in a bipartisan way, that is something that might cause connen certain, some might read that into it. This is a fairly neutral interview, in the bild tabloid newspaper. That is an interesting choice. Its a popular newspaper but certainly not the choice of top politicians or the business world. You mention mrs mays timing, that i think will also raise eyebrows, this weekend germany is very much focussed on a key vote, set to take place tomorrow, which could see Angela Merkels attempts at forming a stable government fall apart. That is what even here is focussed on right now. I doubt very much whether Angela Merkel or her ministers will have either the time or inclination to dwell on brexit. Many Government Services in america have shut down after politicians failed to pass a spending bill. Essential Services IncludingNational Security and air Traffic Control will continue. President macron says britain could get a bespoke trade deal with the eu but in return the french leader told the bbc that the uk would have to abide by Single Market rules. The bbc that the uk would have to abide by Single Market rules. Carillions auditors are under fire for not raising concerns before the firms collapse and parliament launches an inquiry into the firms pension deficit. British tourists travelling to jamaica are being advised to stay in their resorts after a state of emergency was declared around montego bay. Theres been a surge in gang related violence in the area. Every year, around 200 thousand britons visit. Nick davis reports. For a country that depends on tourism, the pictures of troops on the streets in montego bay, jamaicas biggest resort isnt ideal. But the government says its something that needs to be done. The Security Forces are expected and have been directed to treat citizens with respect and to protect the dignity and safety of all. Most of the tourists who visit montego bay a in stay in instigated and guarded all inclusive hotels, where security isnt an issue but the growing real the i for people who live in the city is that crime has spiked. Last year saw over 1600 people murdered in jamaica. Has spiked. Last year saw over 1600 people murdered injamaica. 335 of them in st james, people murdered injamaica. 335 of them in stjames, the area where montego bay is. Most of the crime is gang related and focussed in a small number of communities. The foreign 0ffice number of communities. The Foreign Office has advised holiday makers they should only travel to and from they should only travel to and from the airport to their hotels and when they take excursions to make sure they take excursions to make sure they are arranged by official tour reps, the authority says there will be more vehicle searches as they go after the gangs and their guns. A similar state of emergency in 2010 many kingston saw the murder rate drop to its lowest rate in year, a statistic that meant lives saved. In montego bay it is hoped the same will happen again. Nick davis bbc news jamaica. Earlier i spoke to a representative of abta. There have been some serious Violent Crimes in this area, so serious Violent Crimes in this area, so it is very important they take that seriously, in terms of holiday make ires, that is the main concern, if you look at the incidents, they have been directed at local peep, it is terrible for them. But in terms of tour risk, i havent come across one in jamaica for some of tour risk, i havent come across one injamaica for some time. That is partly because of the fact that the hotels, the destination, the Tour Operators take the safety of holiday makers seriously, when you go to the resorts and hotels they have very strict security. The vast majority of people going on holiday will stay in the resorts, they have their own beach, they pioneered all inclusives in jamaica their own beach, they pioneered all inclusives injamaica for security issue, if you are travelling o nut the next few days to montego bay, i must stress this is only one part of the island where the state of emergency is in place. Follow the advice of your Tour Operator. They will say stay in the resort, you might be tempted to go into the local town and meet local people. That is not advisable. It is easy if you dont know an area well to stray into pa rt of you dont know an area well to stray into part of town that is dangerous. If you lived there you would know that but as a tourist you wouldnt. What if you are not travelling with a group, a Tour Operator, where do you get your advice . If you are travelling independently, and there isa travelling independently, and there is a big visiting friends and family market to jamaica, i hope they would know whats going on. Check the Foreign Office advice to the letter. It, i would advise where ever you are going anywhere in the world, do that, the website is updated, and do that, the website is updated, and do that before you go. 0bviously keep updated with local advice when you are there. The jamaican authorities have been proactive, the main thing is what they are doing is to increase security, because obviously they are not happy with what has been going on. If you are in jamaica or about to travel out to the montego bay area, and you change your mind, as a tourist, a traveller do you have any recourse . If you are on holiday with a Tour Operator it is theirjob to reassure you and stress how important security is in the hotel, that you will be travelling to. What i wouldnt do, i wouldnt be heading down to the town of montego bay and there are certain areas you could be at risk, if you choose not to go, then i think u nfortu nately you choose not to go, then i think unfortunately you would be charged the cancellation fee, that is why it is the Tour Operators job to reassure you you can go. More now on the one Year Anniversary of Donald Trumps presidency.

Christian fraser takes a look at the first year in the trump white house. 12 months in the white house, his first year as a politician. So what does the report card of the 45th president look like .

The president has record low Approval Ratings but the stock market is hitting record high, this week the dowjones smashed through the 26,000 mark for the first time ever, and the economists say it is mr trump that should take the credit. He has delivered on the tax cuts he promised. But will the boom on the markets eventually translate into wage growth . 0n trade there is more to do.

That turned into a congressional nightmare. The tax reform bill chips away at one of the affordable things, the president said thejob was the affordable things, the president said the job was done, that is fake new, it isnt. Where the president will think he scores highly is on foreign policies. Policies. Having vowed to destroy its is the caliphate is on the run in syria and iraq, despite the feud with the rock kept a a man king onunderstanding north and south korea are talking which the president has claimed credit for. What about the wall . The Campaign Promise that resonated most with the base. Right now the president is demanding congressional funding, and there is still plenty of resistance, the one thing we can say with some certainty is that mexico isnt going to pay for it. At least not directly. The promised ban on muslims, that became a travel ban on countries that were predominantly muslim. The legal challenge to that is ongoing, the court ofs much like the media have incurred the president s wrath. 0n policy its a mixed report with some successes, the one thing that has changed beyond all recognition is the oval Office Staffing list. The National Security adviser general mike flynn, he lasted just 24 day, replaced by general mcmaster, flynn is now co operating with the special counsel robert mueller. 0ut too the chief of staff, riens priebus, having failed to stop lea ks riens priebus, having failed to stop leaks from the oval office, in came generaljohn kelly.

This week he was subpoenaed by the special counsel following his explosive comments to michael wolf, author of fire and fury. So quite a year.

Donkeys and humans have been working together for thousands of years. Now the animals are helping to emotionally carry people here on a particularly challenging journey. Annelise was diagnosed with cancer after she suffered a brain injury when she fell off a jeep during her gap year. She has been taking part in what is known as donkey assisted therapy. Put his head down and lifted it back up then, up towards me. And then i rubbed him again and that made me kind of aware that he was all right. And what were you aware of within yourself . That i wasnt scared. The basic idea is that being around donkeys helps people to talk about difficult experiences because the animals have a calming presence. Leanne has been treated for a brain tumour. She and annelise say the programme has been priceless. Yes, i think people would benefit from this who would not go to normal counselling. Like one on one. And someone who wouldnt open up, the donkeys just help you to start and not realise that youre talking so much about yourjourney. How would you say it has helped in your journey through Cancer Treatment . It helped a lot, actually. Doing this. Because at the start i was like, im definitely not doing it and now people ask what did you think of it and i said, it was amazing. They always ask how to explain it and you cant, you just have to go and try it. To understand it. A lot of different emotions come out. They talked about a donkey being left abandoned on a highway and is there ever a time you have felt alone and stuff like that. And when you think about the treatment, you were alone. So it is all about encouraging emotional openness. Any challenges . Mindfulness, i find a bit challenging. The organisation which came up with the therapy says the donkeys are the perfect creatures to make it happen. Donkeys are very social animals and they enjoy engaging and interacting with people. And theyre also very aware of their environment and everything that is going on within it. So within the sessions they are able to act almost like a mirror to the participant and reflect back to the facilitator and the participant what maybe is going on in terms of how theyre feeling emotionally but very much so the nonverbal communication that theyre giving out within their session. That helps with life skills. The Cancer Charity which has been working with the donkey sanctuary says that the scheme has made a remarkable difference. We know at clic sargent that young people experience a lot of emotions. Cancer can rob young people of their self confidence, their independence. And actually stop career aspirations and goals. So this was just one innovative way that we want to make sure that young people get back on the same track in life that they were before cancer came in. As well as helping with therapy, the donkeys have a pretty playful life. But these friendly, gentle and intelligent animals have a new role. Providing vital support to people who are coming to terms with cancer. Chris page, bbc news, in county antrim. Let us look at the weather.
