A little bit of mist and fog around to begin with as we go through the day when the breeze does come around and to the northeast we get a little bit of shelter from Scotland and it's a much drier day than yesterday and eventually as we go through the day we may even see a few breaks developing in the cloud so maybe just a little bit of brightness through this afternoon overnight tonight staying dry and still without a frost temperatures around $4.00 to $7.00 Celsius that's the last frost free night for a wee while because our temperatures from Thursday on Woods are going to start heading down which is going to be cold and crisp wrap up warm Jeff Moscow thank you now I Detectives are continuing to question him about the death of a baby in kind and I've been hearing barely a post on this from our psyches reporter Cormac Kambal well after around half past 5 yesterday evening the pace and I shoot a statement saying that detectives from its major investigation team were now investigating the circumstances of what was described as the sudden death of a b. a B. In the Katy area of army that day it's understood the alarm was raised yesterday morning it was confirmed that a 31 year old man was later arrested in the crate gabbin area about 20 miles away and he was being invest our he was being questioned by detectives embalm bridge the baby has been named locally know last night police officers and forensic teams were conducting investigations at a flat in markets straight that's in the center of Katy and that's understood to be the be obese home there have been no updates in relation to the investigation so far this morning do we know what caused the child's death. Well that's Steve it's unclear police have said that a post-mortem will take place to determine the cause of death let's hope that the op might occur today by last night Sion fans Mary and Emma a cowboy issued a statement and what she said it's a family member of the deceased child and said that they were all in deep shock I was our scythe East reporter Cromer Kambal verite with the report it minutes past 900 Chardy Wood says older people here have been left vulnerable to be astute in lack of safeguarding legislation Northern Ireland is the only part of the u.k. Without specific idols Patricia protection laws action on elder abuse says and its words the current regional guidance isn't fit for purpose and our older population is being failed by a lack of Pires showing that storm and I mean speaking to Veronica Gray the new deputy chief executive of action on elder abuse we day with all forms of abuse of older people from neglect sexual assault so the goal of the financial class and emotional or psychological abuse of older people and time does not impact on an older person the Ravens of impact on older people are quite we know for example that there is an increased risk of an early car medicine we have seen and rates are that indicate post-traumatic stress disorder and owner of a can of obese as well as a very as a go and park on a lot of people and he would be carrying ice this type of appearance for Amika we are very aware from the recent media stories of only and occasional obvious careful however most of the victims of abuse that we were they were are also people 11 in the community and the local and the perpetrators are most often family members or trusted people and rural parts imply So is this a societal issue and a personal responsibility for each one of those as much as it is anything else. Our 1st call to the general public to be a war of the issue of elder abuse was the World Health Organization reporting that one in 6 people over the age of 60 have experienced abuse in the past 12 months this is a mother and epidemic that we are dealing with and we don't want to scar people but we call on the general public and older people themselves to be aware of the issue and to reach out and get in touch with our Elder Abuse Helpline here in Northern Ireland to get support on that side what sort of stories are you hearing we recently with the case of a gentleman 67 he had been coerced by his children to sign over the dates of his house and the children effectively were fortunate to homelessness not a terrible place of people vulnerable people are finding themselves. Absolutely and our method a cheery order paper that there is support and help available through our helpline as our 1st course are for anyone who is concerned about an older person or older practice something that's talked Noya by the current regional guidance you're saying it's not fit for purpose why is a number of reasons firstly in the absence of let's occasionally belief that older people are at risk of encreased abuse back in the founder of last year let's we've got a committed to revealing the date for legislation on the back of the Muchmore of a hospital scandal but we are jumping to see some progress from a discussion we are still awaiting on the outcome of not one but Taylor views on the stairs of adult safeguarding the Northern Ireland are not about whether included rates will polish they wear sunblock last and the priority given to the protection of older people almost an external thing and the outcomes are proposed actions along these lines 100 we compare with the rest of the u.k. And Ireland Scotland and Wales all have some form of legislation and place to protect older people we would certainly be looking to the model and we haven't Scotland and the adult support and protection act which is which is fairly low cost and it's interesting because in Scotland where there is a clear logic of the framework to protect older people. Left to moms on some factor organizations to support older people the opposite it's actually worse than the opposite this is true in Northern Ireland or way an auction on elder abuse have an enclosed amount on our casework service because I was going to ask you where the evidences of we're relying on regional policy for delivering safeguarding we are saying that older people are falling through the cracks in the south and practical terms we have saying the failure of the policy and high order paper and Canadian access services and care has that been denied support. We had health talk welcome to accept our request to make an assessment of an older person because we've been told at work and out of this garden issues when as Kerry was what why would I know I'll say it out of somebody is vulnerable here we would call in or not help talk to to look into. That meant on the threshold is there any particular house just friends to the Western trust care how would they fare I think we need to review this on the icon of the 2 of you and to the state of adult face garden and then look at the proposed action and I come that we want for older people and I think we need to take it out across the board so there is no legislation that exists our legislation with pay and. The strength and we are calling for one pace one single piece of legislation to bring together the most robust legal framework to protect older people from physical abuse sexual assault financial fast and motion of psychological Deleon course of control neglect but hard it is not going to happen given the fact that we have a stalemate a storm and. Absolutely we'll need our own good weapons of all government to bear market. And Northern Ireland went to the code collect our Lord and we're calling on them to take ours and oxen to go a level people government can show we can all with dignity and more than our own and that was Veronica grey speaking to me earlier she's the new chief for the deputy chief executive of action on elder abuse in a statement a department of health spokesperson said the Commissioner for older people recommended the introduction of an adult safeguarding bill for Northern Ireland and his home truths report he also we also expect the independent review of events at Dawn Marie Manor to be submitting a report to the department soon which will consider issues related to adult safeguarding in response to those reviews we have been and will be considering what urgent steps we can take to strengthen adult safeguarding and Northern Ireland in the absence of a health minister and an assembly and if you've been fined by anything you've been hearing this morning on breakfast you can get in touch for the action on elder abuse if you're going to sound bite someone else perhaps the number to call is 080-8808. 41 and just say that again is 080-808-8141 get a reminder off this morning's headlines detectives continue to question him about the sudden death of a baby inside the Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn refuses to apologize for his party's record in tackling them and President Trump is invited to send his lawyer to question what the Says at next week's public impeachment hearings in the Us Congress though it's understood that a number of people have fallen victim to so-called holiday scams here when someone books and pays for accommodation online using an op such as air b.n. B. To find out then that the property doesn't actually exist yes some people have arrived at their own like homes and others at an address where the confused homeowner insists and they've got the wrong address the police are now warning people to be vigilant after both terrorists Northern Ireland as well as holiday makers from here have been called right let's get more on this with Maria Macau. Morning it's likely both this morning good morning just for. I just explained a bit more about why this came to be on my radar I had a few friends visiting from England and we decided to pick on our being in Belfast somewhere to put the bags dine and head lights and when I got to the address saying very residential It didn't look like an urban Bay and when I not that aware. And had no idea what I was talking to buy so you can imagine his surprise when people you know are turning up tourists as well at his door I think in the back this accommodation night was an inconvenience for us but it wasn't a complete disaster because we didn't live too far away and we knew Belfast about what today but you can imagine what it's like for tourists and that happening in a foreign country Simone. Travel the world often using online booking sites like RB invade RB and they define new places to stay and journey a trip to Belfast they thought they'd find a place that like in the photographs they were happy with the price and then well we can hear not what happened next rewriting the door or and. Nobody answered. Ready the house was. Filled it was so weird yeah yeah all right really there it didn't look like a RB and you are even if anybody was living there so we end up calling their number . It was that woman and she told us. It wasn't her as she was not living in Belfast. And we had a big backpack and we didn't really know what to do we spend the whole afternoon and evening trying to find. Not everyone will reports on the west to the police but what can the authorities do to try and stop these kind of scams that's right Richard we actually don't know the Ig to the exact extent of Hi this is happening because you say not everyone will report it to the place some people will just report it to the breaking sight such as i.b.m. Bay But Chief Superintendent Simon walls told me that there have been numerous other reports of a similar nature and not just tourists visiting Northern Ireland but also people from here back in accommodation at home and abroad and we can hear from Chief Superintendent well as we know people you have booked what they think are really good value weekends and in good hotels have turned up to the front desk in the fog there's been no booking retarded people here folks expensive apartments in Spain and when they've got some expensive apartments Well there's always and there's nothing there's a building site or that or there's nothing there so that the whole the whole they market is is a place where as individuals who are approaching holidays or online looking for holidays they feel very very careful and be pretty very sure that what they are booking is actually is it is actually genuine if you're booking maybe a holiday sings to cheap or free booking apartment or hotel use not 100 percent sure it exists there are ways you can actually check out you can find addresses you can look at photographs you can check online you can check reviews and all of that gives you some sort of handle a better idea of icy weather problems actually exists. The challenge for the authorities is that most of these fraudsters are actually thought to be operating from Might side Northern Ireland and also sites like r b m b a day take Donna staying if they receive reports that that it's fake but a host there and volved and this guy can actually then just creates a new a new less things so the cycle continues play say they do want to focus on raising awareness and they're saying that people should look at reviews and check photos online and of something same's to good to be true and it probably is so what's being done by other agencies to stop this happening to tourists in Northern Ireland . I think we all can agree that it isn't good for tourism if this is leaving visitors here with a bad experience or a bad taste but again it is important to remember that it is a global issue and not just Northern Ireland specific one Northern Ireland does have some legislation though that helps some way to Donald fact listings all tourist accommodation needs to be started 5 by Tourism Northern Ireland and that process actually includes a visit by inspectors check that the accommodation will firstly that it actually exists and that it's all of an adequate standard some of the core is from tourism Northern Ireland so anybody who offers tourist accommodation whether it's one night or it's a full time career the property owner has to get certification before they even begin to advertise their property and so it applies to all sorts of accommodation businesses from all tales and guest hosts and bed and breakfasts to the smaller businesses self-catering or people who want to offer just a room in their home anybody who offers accommodation because it ensures that our visitors get a at least a minimum standard of accommodation and what we want to do actually we want to drive the quality of accommodation so if people just want to get certified with us and that's the end of their journey with us until they're certified again 4 years later at least we know that when visitors come here for certain guarantee in terms of quality. Again if something seems too good to be Trey it probably is and the advice is that if you check for certification or some of the very earlier advice from place then you can't go wrong re McCown fine q. Very much just apologize for the delay all not lie modern technology maybe not all it's cracked up to be but we do also a statement from Air b.n. B. That I'll read to you so air b.n. B. a Spokesperson said fake or misrepresent the listings have no place in our community and our system is constantly evaluate hundreds of risk signals to down the fire and stop Bob actors or team works tirelessly on tools to stay ahead of fraudsters strengthen our defenses and educate hosts and guests about protecting their personal details and staying see if online it was on the say over half a 1000000000 people have travelled on air b.n.

This is across the line to bring to the probably both weekly and here you're listening to the Stephen Conroy show and this is the Late Show with black data Thursday from 730 until midnight here on b.b.c. Radio and b.b.c. Signs. That i mind to 23 let's get a look out the travel with Jordan Well if we were ports of delays on the 8 to 20 road approaching grey stage from the direction as well as heading south on the a 6 Hill head road towards Tim then this weekend the castle Dawson bypass will be closed now this closure was postponed from last weekend to get the bad weather it'll be close between Castle Dawson want to bike and the hill head wrote from 10 on Friday night until 6 on Monday morning thanks for that let's get another check of the papers this morning with Connie McCafferty morning Granya Good morning or good morning I'm still just just organizing as there are going myself or at least attempting to. The Bracks Miss Alexion sorry over quickly. But you can't possibly avoid the the u.k. Not your average man Lapp papers with covered in photographs of carbon some of them looking like a rabbit caught in the headlights of a car over the issue that you refused to apologize about the anti semitism particularly after the they attack on him by the hand of the Chief Rabbi I know some of the language will give you so many cation of what happened I mean the language that uses it was secured he was humiliated at his car crash. His mosque was ripped away and you can kind of take your pick but that's across the Sun The Daily Mail The London Times The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph called the and I mean pages for example both front pages and pages. He can't have struggled very much the Guardian took a more moderate plane on it that he was struggling to rebuff the anti semitism. But he was he was also caught on the finer details of his policy but where was he going to get the money to support or compensate the the woman who lost her job and was proven he lost out on their pensions so that's that's an on mess of a story but there's also part of the the Bracks my selection of course which flows across our own fine shores and send the Irish Times by frame a Clements just on lazing the details of the day constituency saying for example that there's no election pact but the battle is within you as with and nationalism itself and of course it's headed by I suppose what really is going on in a way is somebody trying Well not not somebody called me stupid or you know trying to adopt the mantle of John him you see the photograph of John Hume in the mirror of. Sorry the people who are listening to radio come to put it up but I think at that kind of sums the whole thing up trying to kind of claim they're very justifiable mantle of Joe on him but that the battle is between the 2 sides of nationalism and that's a very interesting article on the night from other stories. Local I'm town square and warm very warty and one I thought was and the news letter it said some Page 6 news letter northern waiting times I think we may be already know this waiting times hospitals are the worst in Europe this is by the expert but the big the big point that he makes that in fact that within times and Northern Ireland and just wait for the us not only are they worse than anywhere in Europe and clipping less wealthy European nations such as Albania and Macedonia somehow that sends a chill up your spine the very thought that not only that he's These are his words they're atrocious in a u.k. Context but in an international context as well as a couple of other little cult health stories that I'll reflect on very briefly page one of the times is claiming you needed again to rebut paper but there's a daily cough a moderate amount of consumption can cut the risk of high blood pressure and diabetes and do all sorts of wonderful things when you come to the end of it but it says this is and then dependent company and then depend on research but funded by the coffee cup on a course so I can a thought well and even the what's the can of the headline on page one perhaps not one other health story as being flagged up on the and the Irish Times which is the children are particular children taking selfies and sharing screens is leading to a huge increase and nuts and head lice which is. The spot in my. Not only that but they're saying that because I mean nuts and head lice we used to be more or less confined to primary school but that night because of sharing screens and taking selfies so be warned who you're taking a selfie with you know maybe better check their the status of their hair for. They want to take a selfie with me anyway so so that yet army that night to embarrassing stories one more embarrassing than the other. And the newspapers did not mess they opportunity to use a few puns this is a story about mayor for New Can he is being urged to stand on as mayor you know you may know the story he was caught short and Belfast city center and he was indulging in as they said where this word before becoming behavior. But the main thing is being urged to stand are in but some of the headline writers were so talking about things like hold on we 2nd and you can take whatever you want out of a and I even let it starts off his article by saying I'm not taking the know you walked bought and proceeds to write about John so they couldn't miss the opportunity to order a few a few Athanase Avon that I don't need to well not yes exactly so. That's the can of the other embarrassing story as in the front page of The Irish Times and you think this is almost impossible to happen you know the Ryan Report which was investigating abuse and institutions and so on. The adults of the figures are oh so they initially claimed that there were 170000 children affected by you know they're being put industrial. Schools and so on but in 10361970 but in fact they are not about the columns wrong kind of thing it's really if you did it yourself you wouldn't have models out of the columns wrong and in fact the figure is about 42000 doesn't take away from the seriousness of course a man I want is to many You're absolutely right but still in a kind of a public a publicly funded public. Report for this to be flagged up a major addition this day so there's kind of 2 embarrassing stories for you a 5 time for more really a long or a very quick There are 2 caned of 2 local stories that is that the long awaited a 5 road from new buildings to the border is maybe 2 inches closer than of course that's a bit already can say there and the new year this is flagged up by weekly news they there's a public inquiry early in the new year with the road probably starting and later on in the year but you can see how you define probably we've been here before good news for a new pedestrian bridge across the River connecting the bus station to the center of the tide has also been flagged up so that's kind of good news perhaps bridge across troubled waters can we all say and there couldn't message that's even worse than can you hold on a 2nd my apologies. Confident there with her take on today's papers tell them to come between 9 and 9 we hear from the Floyd constituency I had all the general election on shortly and sports and Scituate survival hopes will suffer as that bike while Spurs and Man City progress in the Champions League to come after a summary of the news from Lisa are still questioning a man after the death of a baby and Katie in country are my. Today forensic officers examined a flat on Market Street in the village last night the man who's 31 is being held at bridge police station Jeremy Corbyn has declined to apologize to the u.k. Jewish community after the chief rabbi claimed the poison of anti Semitism within Labor was sanctioned from the very top he also admitted that those on low incomes could pay more tax under a future Labor government the party has previously said that only people earning over $80000.00 pounds would be forced to pay more income tax and National Insurance President Trump has been invited to send his lawyers who question witnesses at next week's public impeachment hearings in the Us Congress the inquiry is looking into whether Mr Trump pressured Ukraine to investigate his political rival Joe Biden allegations the president denies speaking at a rally in Florida Mr Trump once again called the hearings a witch hunt 1st it was the rush hour Hoekstra homes. It was a failed overthrow a camp and the biggest fraud in the history of our country and then you look at the moment or do you remember that mass. And now the same maniacs are pushing the Doraine page. A number of people have fallen victim to so-called holidays gams in Northern Ireland including tourists visiting here the scams involve people booking and paying for accommodation that isn't actually available or even really the victims often only become aware of it after arriving at an empty property or finding they've been given a fake address to the Irish author Edna O'Brien has been awarded the 40000 pine David Cohen prize for lifetime achievement and a career spanning almost 60 years he's written plays nonfiction and 20 novels I don't think you very much Wednesday's breakfast show very good morning to you if you're just joining us today's weather cloudy skies sunny spells and a few scattered showers low Most places will stay dry all day and some light whens about mild 1st time in years well top temperature of our in term degrees more non-sport with Eric Institute are still searching for only their 2nd league win of the season. After they went 31 away to. Premiership last night Stuart were 3 Dawn out for just 35 minutes before Jamie McIntyre grabbed a lip consolation goal they remain 2nd from bottom 3 points ahead of Warrenpoint and manager Shawn Carter was left her 1st half display to get. Away from home we needed to test their confidence because of the back of a bad run. But it was just one. Of the made up you know we have. Kept they kept the shells in the game. And I was in the case today the boys were. Probably in a false position is probably the best they've played for a long way as well that in the 1st 45 minutes Len failed in 4th move to within 5 points of leaders Korean with a 21 victory over night at the show growing Blues boss David Healy says it was a performance to answer some recent criticism but again there was a lot of questions throughout his off the. Performances which really helped me to the standard that we know that we all trust credit players. For missions we are multiple. Which normally do you and we can thank you show her the players we were the last 90. 3 points for one of the local football and this morning fan harps defender Keith Cohen has confirmed that he will not be staying at the club for the 2020 Ses and it's understood the 34 year old favors a move to the Irish leg of the Champions League and Spurs.

Are all level on the same number of points in their grip Northern Ireland manager Michael an Aids test a defeat for the 1st time a Stoke City boss losing one way to Cardiff in the Championship former Derry City striker Roland Curtis scored in the 1st minute as Portsmouth defeated 32 in League One. Sound we had from him in greater depth Airlie on the program said if Derry Spartan corner Bradley who's been selected for the European Cross Country Championships in Lisbon next month at the age of $32.00 it will be his 1st time to represent Ireland on the international stage all staffing up there I would say it has to be the place achievement and I. Just rated the late it made the top 6 and I'm going to give them eventually. Yeah it's been it's been a great year 107 presidents. To be honest I would have to put it. Just rain consumption say with a train and you know in previous years or to struggle with Nagel's and injuries in one. Sense can of air later tonight Jane. Really relations us in training as I read a man and Razor nickels and Ferris You days off and finally for the u.k. Sticker championship former champions John Higgins Neil Robertson and Matthew Stevens all won their 1st round matches at the York barbecue and I did mean to throw when they are joining the Champions League reports as well that the Harry key and the fastest player in Champions League has straight to reach 20 goals he happy to record a previously held by Del Piero interesting I'm surprised it took you so long to get out and as well top of the militants my last chance Eric thank you very much know this afternoon we'll be bringing you our final constituency to be ahead of next month's general election so we've already heard from the candidates for West to Rome East London Derry and today our focus is on the foil constituency 7 candidates in total are standing well in the $27000.00 general election Elissa McCallion edged out former s.-t. O.-p. Leader Mark Durkan by $169.00 votes this time arrives you'll have to hold off the challenge of current s.-t. O.-p. Leader column East would it be trying to win that seat back for the party Well reporter Granya Morrison has been people speaking to some voters but a report begins with the stars of the model primary schools upcoming performance of Top Of The Pops I. Phone and hear you in the play on my name flame and I and Dan. Being. My favorite. Line Play have. The idea of a favorite part. The school will perform their Christmas show on the 2 nights before the general election. Was a choice of dates on their part because the school becomes a polling station the morning after. And it's own the 12th of December that constituents will have the power to choose their number one. For young people. Just. For the young people. You know. Sometimes. The party is going to take. You know. Because. It's. The 1st time. So. It's the. Main for nobody. Even if I have to change me. For ever and it would is this the 1st election where you've maybe had to change who you vote for because of the portion Yes it's not something you disagree Oh yeah. My point I can understand if it's not for you to be looking at where they stand on abortion no I will vote for those who will take the seat in Westminster anything that you look for candidates to speak at a point when you're trying to. Be a school's just the normal run and all have people that will be in Stormont that area be to speak to one another different say speak to one another just for the young people to see that people adults can come together and talk about the future of Northern Ireland or a land as a whole. Is so important in the end they can't even do that at the minute and I think it's really sad and the start of it message be of the. Back inside and the stars of top of the pop star and concerned by the upcoming election but as they were 1st their lines so to the 7 candidates standing at this point in time I don't think I trust any and I have some but I want people to very normally will for you know I think we need change. I. Know I. Go out on your Marson with the foil constituency profile we can get more from our political correspondent and I'm a clown for the you know such a joy if you'll not be in a Christmas play on the you of course. The Samberg So maybe Scrooge like. But in the future so talking about falls who are mere 2 weeks away from the election he's looking like a front runner. That's a big question Richard and if we go by the bookies they have column eastward ahead so far this way through the campaign but we are as you say a fortnight in the book is The Thing For more go in topping column eastward than has always have been a shortening over the course of the past fortnight or so but I think it's also worth remembering that the book is a way back in 2017 top to Mark Durkan to retain his seat they got it wrong back then and there's nothing to suggest they're going to get it right this time because I think both parties are are quietly confident about their chances on the don't want to sound as if they are going to make those over the line in a very public way because the last thing I think that they need is to give their supporters a sense that the got the job done because that amazing courage some people on a cold wet December night to stay at home because a big focus on thing for the parties as to get their vote out and nothing they're going to say in the meantime between now and polling day that might if you like put some people off coming out to exercise their franchise but make no mistake about it Richard this is going to come right down into the wire again as we know 169 votes separated Sinn féin and they asked the LP The last time and I think we can expect something similar this time by way of a final final result Yeah we heard a few of the the issues come up and grown as pockets there but what will be the citing factors in this fight Well 1st and foremost turnout is going to be key the last time around it was pretty high of course one of the Samara election we've haven't had one of those since 1923 and you know weather will be a big factor in whether or not people actually bother to turn out on the 12th of December so a lot of the forest by the challenge facing the parties we know another factor and for as has been in the past unionist voting tactically to support the s.t.l. Paid to keep Shannon Feehan out a sense Lena that dynamic has changed this time because those union set up to do that well actually be removing a self in m.p. As opposed to keeping the party out so that mightn't. Nice more of them to feel like so their weight behind the s.t.l. P. We know the last hammer and the happen in sufficient numbers to get Mark Durkan over the line and if you speak to the d.e.p.t. They say that they don't expect it to happen this time around there's a lot of anger within the u.p.a. On the date among the grassroots people about the fact that the s.t.l. Pay the stood a say to North Belfast to Alicia and fan to target Nigel dogs as it's will be interesting to see how that plays out on the ground but there is no doubt about it there are still those unionist out there who will want to make their vote count and in order to make their vote cunt some of them might die fact ruin behind column a still of the s.t.l. Pete ensure that he gets a seat ahead of Sinn Fein we would expect it to be one of the or call me swerd so to horse Reus but how might some of those other candidates may be shipped out final results well that's another big question Richard because obviously in 2 you're going to be a factor in the selection on McCluskey as we know Paul very highly in the last assembly elections he has a big practice standing very much in the pro-life take that we know that's an issue that affects both Sinn féin and they as d.l.p. Particularly and Barry and they could and fags say their vote go dying because of the fact that McCluskey is taking out voters from them so that's one thing to watch out for to be interesting to see who suffers most and terms of the drag 2 parties when it comes time to the Mclusky factor we also know for instance Sean Harken people before profit Paul very well in the kinds of actions and I have to concerts and the chamber they're also likely to eat until the vote of Sion fan on the s.t.l. Pain also of course we have Daryn guy standing for they also Unionist Party he pulled well and that consular action as well and we know that he carries a big support while the also unionist vote come back him this time or was some of them and 5 be those soft unionists voting tactically to support the the s.t.l. Piece a lot of different factors at work here and of course the Alliance Party and their history with Rachel Ferguson will be interesting to see how many votes they know. Muster because you'll be able to look at her vote compared to the Consul Lexan and decide whether or not she's managed to build on that momentum keep those voters what the party or whether some of them have strayed as well to try and get our economy stood over the line so there's a lot of things to work out at the end of this and a lot of equations and whenever the number crunching comes at the other end of the the polling day it will be fascinating to see just how much those other parties have contributed to the final outcome and I've helped a few like stop one candidates from wanting and maybe help push another candidate over the line yet not word fascinating on a final point and that you move in political circles just how much attention is being paid to foil because it is the tightest of tightest states last time right well it is the one that and fight is probably all the drama is going to be it has to be said that North Belfast made in some sense as overshadowed a little bit because that's straight shooter between John Finnick and and needs of dogs as grabbing a lot of attention as you can imagine east of the band because for one fans they got something like nasal dogs of course one of the key players for that party at Westminster would be a huge victory for them and a sense of there's a lot of focus on that battle but make no mistake about it as far as the closest battle on the pattern shows that it's going to come right back turning to work was last time around there's no doubt about it that what's happening and for it will be a major player in all of this because you might say they asked the LP for instance returning to Westminster again from Foyle and we also know that the party's in a prime position within Belfast as well to try and get that seat as well back to the day you pick her one and pulled position there so it might well be the case that they look could well be looking at 2 pm piece back in the chamber at Westminster again against that of course and fear what will be very keen to hold on to say what they fought a long long time to claim and make no mistake about it Lisa McCallion on the team will put up one hell of a fight to ensure that she just not become the m.p. For Ford for 2 and a half years that her Rian will be much longer than that battle lines drawn and the McClaughry thank you very much our political correspond just remind you again this after. To be at fault to be at all accountants for the fall constituency this afternoon Liam McGee will chair that on Radio 4 all today between half past 1 3 o'clock when time is approaching tanzanite has got another look at the stories making the headlines this morning police investigate the sudden death of a 14 year old garret at the enver River area of Narn distractive continue to question a man by the sudden death of a baby inside Arma and the Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn refuses to apologize for his party's record I'm tackling anti-Semitism Let's get one last look at the weather with Jeff Moscow Hello good morning to you another mild and cloudy day across northern all of that cloud not as dark as it has been for the last few days because it is a much drier day and as the breeze comes right out of the north east we get a bit more shelter from Scotland from the prevailing winds so turning drier through the day still mild for the time of year in fact we've already recorded the forecast highs of 8 to 10 Celsius already this morning and for the 1st time in a couple of days we'll start to see some gaps in the clad developing so staying largely dry overnight with variable plant amounts it will be colder than recent nights with temperatures down to between 4 and 7 Celsius so but it will be the last frost free night for a wee while because the temperatures by the end of the week will be much colder Ok so we're staying with the general election this morning registration has night closed did you better register and if not why not was the process to confusing or did political apathy perhaps get the better of you not surprisingly some reps like people experiencing homelessness for example are less likely to vote than others and it's not for lack of interest in the issues as Catherine Morrison discovered a Belfast welcome center for the homeless. Has not been misquoted. Or. Jared and James are both currently homeless. Got their own views on bricks at the health service and politicians but neither is planning to vote in next month's election I'm job offer to 44 and from Belfast I wouldn't vote for them to have you registered to vote. And why is that because I'm not a political person much rather I just like to get almost new nation try and help people around me rather than We've known them and said not drinking or cups of tea and a trip you know digestive biscuits to an option or nothing for this country. Registering to vote even with the permanent address is relatively simple the address of the hostel or temporary accommodation is used James told me he did register to vote but for a very specific reason. If you feel that registered to vote why wouldn't you. Point. Out for. Me the. Best way to. Do you know. Of the people who use your service here. Are they registered to vote. I couldn't actually register to vote for. Them where. They have the right to register just because you have no fixed abode. The right to register or to vote. We worked with and would be quite in nature. For many their priority. Putting in the. Yes Absolutely those who may be in. There over kind of a longer period of time just being to be given perm accommodation they would maybe be more inclined to take up their right we're here in the welcome center do you think that any of these other people will have registered to vote or will folks in the election the people around here love how to manage things will name change going on the dynamic of regards to regards to the drug addictions stuff like that are local larger than if it's open room I really think that they would have to tame or hang in there had actually born right because it's of opinion a relevant damns present day off. People in America and I thought a 40 years. For the West now starring one other for us. And that was Catherine Morrison reporting there from Belfast welcome center for the homeless Now you may be able to talk and a sausage for an egg Sarny or something for your breakfast let's talk about vegan food for a 2nd because a nursery in Chester has decided to go Foley vague and in the food it offers the children who attend its 2 sites was called Jigsaw was taken fish off the menu for 260 under fours so maybe offer dishes like a lentil biggest shepherd's pie Terry Akki vegetables and others doing it for you to resign or to. Cut out I was for I don't know if you were doing it from Abbey where I guess somebody went bonkers once they saw. Well it also goes well I got a coconut rice pudding me it was soya or milk Well this is the nursery with her husband Stewart the environment is not taken care of I would like to be able to help for all children they don't need to worry in the future about the plan I want to be able to help out so we decided to take the menus plant based purely because of all footprint we provide me in dairy at the moment I knew that moving forward with the plant based menu words. Obviously reduce that carbon footprint and would allow the children to be able to go into the world feeling happy and confident that there's a future for them when you do wonder what mom and I think some parents are said to have welcomed the healthier menu but the change has not reported to have gone dine well with everyone some say it's imposing a lifestyle choice on this children as taters says that's not the case 76 percent of our parents attend the nursery 3 days or less a week which if you look at the recommended guidelines around about 75 percent of their overall food intake is the responsibility of the parents at home so the challenge that we've seen is you've removed responses chugs remains fully within the grasp of parents they strive very purely for it from an environmental perspective and choice can be fully part of everybody's food well if they choose to to do so. You know so the tillers say they've closely followed the early years guidelines about what children should be aiding have employed a nutritionist to make sure their food is providing a full range of nutrients I don't think I could do it I don't think I could go vegan that mentality is on the night a dinner party for 30 and 40 somethings at the weekend and if I had a SAHM give them lentil based anything I think there would be a fair defines you know what stands out for me whenever I think about feeding foods the one thing I would miss I just could not do without it has got to be cheese cheese love cheese but also fish anything shellfish fish love a good base curry too yeah I think we're learning here that neither of us would me a baby when I could go I could go just past but I think it's as if not technically don't know what's up to mommies and daddies at their But it's not taking it far too seriously especially when you're you're that young the only way you know what Jelly type sweets is of you know that they go to take them count all leather sofa tough tough to do.
