Pomp and ceremony for Donald Trump on the 1st day of his visit to Beijing including a very passionate tour of the Forbidden City by the Chinese president Xi Jinping and lots of cheering crowds girls with. The kind of thing Mr Trump really likes We'll also take another look at the resignation of pretty. And what this means for the government going forward. Well was a very elaborate welcome for President Trump huge ceremony outside the great hall of the people but then it was done to work and. President Trump is going to have to talk trade with the Chinese premier and he'll have probably some numbers in his mind we'll talk to Steve McDonald who joins us from Beijing Hello Steve how's it going good nice of you with us the numbers are pretty stunning aren't they really when you look at the imbalance in trade between China and the United States. Yeah this is pain a message that Donald Trump's been using in Japan and South Korea as well these 3 North Asian countries are all doing pretty well out of the trade with the United States and don't trump says it's a fair relationship and wants to turn things around I mean in the case of Japan and South Korea when he was they said all the these countries are going to buy more u.s. Military hardware that this was going to create more u.s. Jobs and give those countries more safety Well that's not an option for China so will have to wait and see what they come out with today but what we are expecting is that they'll they've already been a few of these kind of individual deals announced and as the afternoon rolls on here local time. Will see a whole bunch of these China u.s. Deals now. I mean like specific deals like this to 2 companies agreeing to buy these products and what have you I guess the thing is we'll have to sort of drill down into this a bit when we see the detail of it because some of them are just like memorandums of understanding they don't really concrete contracts or anything like that and I don't think we'll see a major shift from Xi Jinping and Donald Trump in terms of the way try it in economics you know goes between the 2 countries for example Donald Trump would like to see greater access to the Chinese market for u.s. And other Western companies I don't know that China is going to change the rules even though it really is turning on a massive welcome for Donald Trump here well tell us a bit about that welcome because clearly Mr Trump had lost the fund that the into pan and then and then again and in South Korea I mean they've really worked on my guys. Yeah absolutely I think some analysts would say that. They realize if they flatter and Prize Donald Trump that it will help them get their way with him and it does seem to work I mean he is. Pretty forthcoming in these primaries of Xi Jinping for example you know they went into talks here a little while ago at the great hall of the papal near where I'm standing and beforehand Donald Trump couldn't help but have a dig as he does his previous u.s. Administrations saying that they have let the China u.s. Liason ship deteriorate but he's here to turn that around now and she Jinping was much more well unusual in what he said he just basically said it's good to have world leaders getting together and talking so frankly you know the like. But you know. It has been no expense spared for Donald Trump many turn up here on his 1st days in the middle of the forbidden cities watching Peking or pry turns up to die is the you know the the Honor Guard is out for him there's a big banquet in the great hall of the people tonight so. There are some slots for actual meetings but apart from that you know he's looking at gold objects and there is a lot of other stuff around this trip I guess it's pretty symbolic and I would still say it's important for building relations between these 2 huge world superpowers. So any sign of going back to you know we said that he and Prime Minister Abi and Japan really hit it off for golf. Is there a place where he's going to hit it off with President Xi. Well the she's not the golfing type but he don't say is they've got a great working relationship now up there knows how true that is I guess they've got to say that about each other in a way but it is same to be quite I mean Bill with one another when they're chatting and having dinner and snow stuff like this. You know it's not like they've got a sort of hobby in the same way that you know and trumpeter that they could you know have a sport home and all that but you know mostly it is down and they just sit down and chat with one another and that's how you do things Yeah so at the moment I mean it sounds like there aren't any huge expectations from this. Well it depends who you are and what you know what you know what you are expecting and I think ordinary people know that all the work is done before these leaders arrive here and that it's all kind of scripted so I don't think everything that announce that we know they're going to and I know they're going to announce it I mean in a few hours time the ping and don't trump will come out and have a joint statement now it's not a joint press conference because Jim ping doesn't take questions from the press and this big joint statements of them both come out and say something each. Is probably going to be along the lines of things to do with tried but of course the big issue the dominant issue really for Donald Trump's visit here is North Korea and its nuclear weapons and you know he wants China to try and do more to really put the screws on North Korea to give up its weapons Well the problem for China is that it doesn't want the North Korean regime to collapse and to have a unified Korean peninsula dominated by the South with u.s. Troops on the Chinese border I mean. You know the reason that China puts up with so much from North Korea is that it's a buffer that's the sure there were many brothers that are. Doing the Korean War and what have you but strategically the most important thing. Is the same reason they got involved in the Korean War in the 1st place is that. It's this important state for China. To it's worried about its borders and certainly wouldn't want u.s. Troops right up against them now so where does that leave North Korea and its weapons where does that leave them in terms of what you can and can't do because North Korea has shown an amazing capability just to absorb all the sanctions I mean they have in the pine pollen on them at the moment by China they've cut seafood they've cut coal. Tax dollars All this all these sources of hard currency whining back to resume it would be hurting you know what's left of the North Korean economy but you know they've had worse than this and gotten through it and not stopped there Rob nuclear arms program it will be very interesting to see what Donald Trump and she Jinping say this often and in a few hours' time Steve good to talk to thanks very much. No And Steve McDonald there and basing. Well as we just had the President Trump is expected to raise how trying to kind rein in North Korea's nuclear aims us what he would like to see the White House once Pyongyang's me and I to ply more pressure but basing this as he was just saying says is doing quite enough thank you and his speech yesterday which he carried to the South Korean parliament the President Trump war North Korea do not try this Christopher Hill basket or Christopher Hill was the last senior u.s. Diplomat to negotiate face to face with the North Koreans and he did it during the 2nd term of President George w. Bush I asked him what he made of President Trump's address they were very strong words their words that are commonly heard as United States are commonly heard in front of the National Assembly some 50 kilometers from North Korea he did by and large stay away from ad hominem attacks we did hear a little rocket man again but we heard a pretty. Clear statement about what he feels about North Korea and what it's created there so it's give Al song and I think what he's essentially saying is he absolutely does not see any prospect at this time for any kind of negotiation so there we are. And he said he would intervene at one point down he that that he thought that was a pos I mean he made a vague reference to negotiate Yes And he said I think we can work things out yes but he depending on the time of day or the day of the week he says there are things about North Korea but this was quite a like the prepared statement which he's pretty clear that he doesn't see much opportunity there so we'll have to see where we go from here obviously the North Koreans are very. Carefully listen. To what he had to say and we'll have to see 'd how things go 'd with the was the Chinese they can't be happy with that kind of state that on the other hand they can't be surprised either. But a but how do you know how are you going to get to this. Without millions of people paying for it. Well exactly I mean any kind of option of preemptive attacks of course these are not terribly good options track the pretty horrific options so I think what we're looking at a sort of hanging in there for the longer term reassuring the Allies resupplying the Allies president from seemed like a missile salesman when he was in Japan and Korea and the same time I think he needs to double down on trying to come to an understanding with the Chinese so obviously no silver bullets there no surprises there but. This is not going to get resolved anytime soon in the meantime the North Koreans I think are going to move as fast as they can sort of deliverable nuclear weapons. I mean I'm interested the impression that there is just no one here. Because he he did tone it down didn't he it seems that his his visit was maybe help to. Clarify his thinking well it's a I think it was a good sign that he didn't go after these 'd ad hominem attacks that he's done in the past but I think he also made it pretty clear that he was trumping Trump I don't think we're looking for in the near term opening the key question of course will be outright he's regarded all this they do the very practical side of the Xi Jinping is coming out of a very successful party congress so let's see how the Chinese reassess and decide what they want to do obviously they're not very happy with who is a North Koreans have been very unhappy for several years now and I think it's pretty clear to them that there's 'd a limit to how much they could bring Trump along toward a 'd some kind of negotiated outcome they are making an awful big fuss of him aren't they I mean he had a passion all to run the Forbidden City from. The presidency so he has got he invested in that what did the Chinese want to get out of Mr Trump's visit. Well I think the stations are kind of broken the code on the Empire Service looked at Saudi Arabia decided this is how it likes to be treated they think they could do the best where they have if they treated that way so I think what the Chinese are trying to do is to tamp down any sort of sort of drive by shootings on things like traded cetera try to tamp down all that kind of stuff and hope that they can get him focused on a narrow few issues and I hope one of them or I have hope at the top of the Los to be the North Korean issue because the Chinese are very worried about a foot selves the whole testing area where the North Koreans have tested these nuclear weapons in the past the size of that mountain is collapsing so China could be looking at some environmental. Outcome from them others are clear to us they're very unhappy about it very concerned about the North Koreans but they need a steadier partner than the ones I've got so I think they're just hoping they can kind of try to work for them and get them on. On a straight path. Ambassador Christopher Hill So President Trump's approval ratings are low less than the 40 percent of American cities doing a good job right now I would start out with the lowest approval rating of any American president in 70 years President Xi Meanwhile cemented his status as the most powerful Chinese leader in a generation at the Communist Party Congress last month but what kind of a precedent as President Xi can be Brian as professor of Chinese studies King's College London and author of c.e.o. China the rise of Xi Jinping he's in control of all of the most obvious leaves of power in China I mean he's the head of the party he's the president is the head of the military so. You know he looks very powerful but let's remember that you know China is going for huge challenges it's got enormous amount to do in a very short time and one man can't possibly achieve all of that you can achieve even a tiny bit of that so he's in center of this very vast system he's the face of it. The moment I think the system is pretty sort of lined up behind him. But we shouldn't be complacent about how powerful he is and feel this is a man who can do anything and he's a different kind of leader the Chinese leaders in the past like Mal who probably could tell people everywhere to do what you know whatever he wanted seizing thing works in a much more complicated Chinaman frame I see but he's still in the course of developing as ideas for China isn't he I mean where does he want China to go obviously the party's tremendously important. Season is for China to be within the next 5 years basically the same team the all girls that's the 100th anniversary of the foundation of the Communist Party fight 2021 he wants China to be a what they call rich strong powerful country and they're well on the way there. So that means perhaps a g.d.p. Of about $13000.00 u.s. Dollars which China is pretty close to now and it means that China's these regionally dominant It's got power in the Asia Pacific region and it's basically never ever going to be a victim again like it was in the historical past so that's a vision and I think this is a very nationalistic kind of message the party says With one would you know one of the sort of maleness Marxist Leninist and yet in fact it's a Nationalist Party so that's the thing that I think Chinese people really support but they like this vision of the you know strong country in this very strong looking leader representing it and I think that works for them one nationalist meeting on the other I mean it's nothing of no trumps make America great again promise has been full America it's a nostalgic vision I think it's a bit sort of looking back to the good old days and hoping they'll come back for America for China it's about the future I mean that the future is good the post was not so great and so there's a big hunger I think and that's what makes the sort of energy between the 2 countries significantly different so you know and when he was trumps often talking about you know bringing back the good days I think the seizing thing he's bringing the good he's in the future you know that they're kind of going to be new for Chinese people that have had this kind of lifestyle before so it's much more potent and I think in terms of that difference that they similarities Trump and. That populists I mean that's pretty clear that people to play to the base and for the trumpets particular kind of based America so she Jingping it's the you know in the middle class in China who 'd are the people driving this enormous you know amazing economy when their own houses want foreign holidays have the kids studying abroad when the kind of lifestyles that we've got all these people of the ones we have to . And how does he play the President Tom We had a little bit of that from my boss the hill there because you know passion ill tours of the Forbidden City by the president about pretty extraordinary obviously Trump likes to be made an extreme fossil of that's what the Chinese are planning to do I mean the Chinese and Ma says this I was a diplomat for 10 years before becoming an academic I mean they absolutely know how to do the theater of diplomacy take close 'd the city down he will have been the mother of all tell the caves you know going from the sort of the airport to the city. You know they've basically made Beijing a theater for Trump over the you know this next couple of days and I'm sure he being a very Seems to me a really conceited man the Chinese know how to read that they will have played he's you know sort of business side and I'm sure that also made it very clear that his business interests are being very well looked after in China so I think this is the kind of diplomacy the Chinese can do on like anyone else and it seems from his tweets this evening that he's lapping it up. Mr Trump obviously wants to keep North Korea and its box but what does China want from him. I think China is very happy with the way that Trump has meant spices for them you know I mean he's obviously withdrawn or he's caused America to be seen to withdrawing from space in the region you know environmental issues now China's in the lead free trade deals China's in the lead and I think China is very happy with that because one America disappeared completely that's not in this interest so I think that they'll kind of want a good dialogue with him they understand the importance of the office the president of the United States significant office no matter what person spinning it and they also understand America's relationship that they can't get wrong it's not the Cold War You know it's a well thought for one to kind of think the American China have to carry exist and they both I think recognize that so we're going to see any 0 sum games McCain's been shipped here from what we're going to seize China trying to basically create that personal chemistry of this president so they can basically do deals and take the sort of far off them for the you know any cool kind of trading arrangements at the moment. And basically just have a relationship that is predictable while they continue this enormous you know an impressive rise. Kerry O'Brien is professor of Chinese Studies at King's College London is also the author of c.e.o. China the rise of pink. Saudi Arabia is still reeling after dozens of influential figures including 11 princes were arrested last week and the Crown Prince Mohammed bin sama M.P.'s to his friends says he's cracking down on corruption but his critics worry that too much power is becoming concentrated in his hands the crown prince often presents himself as carrying out reforms on behalf of Saudi Arabia's young population so what do young Saudis think about the direction the country is heading our Middle East Correspondent your analysis and finding out what. Saudi Arabia remains rigidly conservative but it's striving to be modern its young population is restless for reform 6 in 10 Saudis are aged under 30 so what do they think of the latest dramatic changes being ordered by Crown Prince Mohammed bin. The sense that I got from my Saudi friends and the Saudi public sphere as well which you know you can tap into on Twitter there was a mission Alisha banned from Riyadh is studying in Washington d.c. But he's infusing us tickly following what's going on back home that people have been arrested have always been deemed to be untouchable and so this sends a message that that is over and then no one is untouchable and there will be no tolerance anymore for corruption and waste in the economy.

Pretty high in your pocket I mean who's who's listening to spend some money Chelsea are set to get a lot of talk about you know whether the phrase in concert here comes Ike and John crosses in the story a play that shit planning a January spending spree they want to big name striker and Edison's Ross Barkley and John Cross as a sign from some to push their approach will not be changed by the posher technical director Michael Emenalo of course is in charge of the comings and goings of Stamford Bridge is now gone and is designed to show support for Antonio comes like I do face a bit of competition Barkley from Spurs who have been a long long interested in office for quite a while but I call it 7 Chelsea and amongst the strikers they want a Christian band tech a Crystal Palace and rich double great Richmond Park. And with Germany on Friday and you've got a lot to buy that yes we got 4 pages not a little face on the back this about chap Bolland Stokes 24 year old goalkeeper probably a very promising tell us. He'll start head of job against Germany. Which is dropping a fairly big change with. The ball and can establish himself as the number one heading into the World Cup Now we don't know where the Who is that we don't know which of them is going to stall games Purcel next Wednesday but only Buckland seems to be in the in the box and the time John Haas time is the number one is looking a little bit tenuous at the moment. Elsewhere I mean people talking about World Cup with great excitement and A.D.'s and and about that it's all about these 2 internationals are all about your chance to perform and make yourself casing that you know you'll be your likely contender for the World Cup squads coming up to Ashley Young talking about Asian guys the World Cup in 2000 and also 2014. In a sense of Manchester United just saying ring your sentiments with a friend and he said himself that implies a lap back or I think or write back and win back he says he can read the game well he recently reached the game better than he ever has done and he's never considered Christer it was over you know I'm sure he's out of favor there for a little while for England he will stay on those 2 World Cups is more determined than ever to get picked for this summer's one I'll McKinley Well pretty but tell flew back yesterday and resigned as international development secretary she's our home from our African tour after the match that she had withheld key information from the prime minister promises office released Miss Patel's resignation letter it was he apologizes for causing a distraction from the work of government I spoke out earlier to Lucy Fisher who senior political correspondent at The Times and Lucy explained how these long series of events unfolded. Wanting that Liam Fox and other officials have traveled on to Uganda Meanwhile pretty Tell was left in in Kenya. As the day wore on we knew that she was summoned back to Downing Street and it was the most. Tense atmosphere around 22000 people don't want to the flight tracker to watch the plane on which she left Kenya to travel 4200 miles back to the u.k. When she touched on that London of course a lot of interest journey was then also surveilled from the tarmac to number 10 and it's just been the most extraordinary day watching a woman summoned back to meet her fate everyone knowing that she was going to leave the cabinet by the end of the day I mean there was no question of that was or no there wasn't I think it was clear that actions have had breached the ministerial cage mind standing is there was one meeting in particular in September with the Israeli security minister in the coalmines that wasn't declared and that was the technical challenge which she really had to tend to have resignation has it become any clearer what the subject of these meetings was the 12 undisclosed meetings in the summer and then these 2 subsequent meetings it's still all very clear even why she was having these meetings when she was supposed to be on a family holiday the 2 meetings she had off to Woods I think huge problem in that you know it's been disclosed that she suggested that defeat could perhaps hand some aid to the Israeli military in the Golan Heights a very inappropriate suggestion and of course that came off she had visited the Golan Heights in a breach of diplomatic critical by traveling with Israeli officials that to a hospital when when Britain did us the world has undertaken not to travel to that area under the auspices of Israel because its sovereignty is recognized and international law so I mean. Said that sick that's the key the just sticks out of one of the one of the problems the reason she had to resign but I also think the cover up of it and the way in which she misled the press when this got out last week is another key key question she has to answer and a key question presumably that the prime minister has to answer as well because it all looks a bit like I don't know some get of carelessness doesn't it and in not running a particularly tight ship. Well absolutely I think again today people have been saying this points to treason Mays weakness you know people feel that they can get away with playing a little bit fast and loose with the rules they don't feel the need to kind of Downing Street into what's going on I think it certainly does leave questions for the prime minister but also there's been a sort of the murkiness around the whole affair which people around him pretty telling the Israeli officials involved to suggest that Downing Street did Nick so there was also a sort of a period of the day in which that had to be cleared up Downing Street did eventually come back and say No we didn't know before last Friday our national statement on this matter was correct but I think there's a way in which they're allowing the narrative to run away from them. As much to tell or shove them in the shoes part of the 2010 intake wasn't she so she she had a pretty fast rise she had a deed she was a leading female British was also of course the 1st British Indian in the cabinet and I think on both counts people think it's a shame that she's had to leave but you know it was a meteoric rise from. Entering parliament you say 2017 years later that career looks to be looks to be over for the moment as she returns to the backbench is well what's left for the prime minister because a lot of the the Tory grandees are are openly critical of her and they like Patton for example and people wondering well what she's supposed to do know is she going to have a real clean house. And look to more people who maybe haven't been in Parliament for very long to come in at least into the junior ranks. Well certainly I think that there is a general sense that she should be bold and meant to a wider reshuffle mood music I've been hearing this evening suggest that she isn't going to do that it could well be a limited one in one out to replace pretty Patel I think people think that there will be a good excuse for her to wait appraise the situation and perhaps have a bigger shift around some of her key players because of course Damian Green a key left tenant the defacto deputy prime minister remains under investigation and of course if he if if if there is a firm finding against him by the ethics impropriety chiefs you Graham one who that of course he will have to leave the cabinet and yet again that will have to be another many reshuffle it all begins to look very drip drip drip and again this is on the context of treason may already being seen as weak power simply draining further from the center of the machine because it's tremendously problematic for isn't it because she somehow has to try and keep a balance between Bracks or tears and those who are maybe not quite so keen on it I mean that's a that's a whole new wrinkle that's that's absolutely right I mean I think a lot of people today have been saying that Rory Stewart be very good fit a junior minister in defense who's had experience in the Foreign Office before he came to parliament a very senior diplomatic roles but of course he was a remain there and of the pretty leave faction in the parliament she conservative party don't want to see their influence diminished in the cabinet we might people also talk about the gender element to all this you know be could if there were a woman to replace pretty Tell make sure that the gender ratio remain sane so on that basis people have been pushing a penny more Didn't a female breaks a tear. Dominic. Not who initially but a brick citizen of the name is going around will be interesting to see who fills that gap I mean these are tremendous difficulties so are they because in a government which is generally criticised as weak to start ticking boxes as well as everything else makes the job of filling your cabinet almost impossible. Oh absolutely and then of course you have to look at you know the Prime Minister's individual relationship with each of the potential candidates who can fill this role she's already had a hit in the polls week with the 1st cabinet scout being claimed in the sleaze scandal engulfing Westminster some Michael Fallon left the cabinet this time last week but suggestions that his behavior had fallen short she he was a key ally of trees amaze of course Boris this week will say another serious gaffe on his part that could potentially endanger the liberty of a British Iranian citizen jailed in Iran I think that the many fronts on which the Prime Minister and her team of firefighting that this is really frankly all they needed. Lucy Fisher from the time but what was Mr Patel discussing with Israeli officials it became a bit clearer to me when I spoke to Raul woodland a reporter at The Times of Israel Well there's certainly been a lot of interest in the story over the past few days but the interest is mainly focused on the political fallout in the u.k. . Not so much on the content of the meetings themselves there isn't really the sense here that there was anything untoward in those meetings or that there was really any effort to open some sort of channel of funding for Israel. This sense is . Pretty to tell you know perhaps growth protocol or made a mistake in not informing. The Foreign Office of. The meetings but there isn't a feeling that she was she was negotiating some sort of secret deal with. That with Israeli government officials the range of officials. Quite very some of the opposition someone from the government. Very definitely through it and that there isn't there like I said there isn't a feeling that there was anything untoward was very interesting I mean the suggestions being made that this was about funding humanitarian work by the Israeli army on the Golan Heights and and that generally felt that that would have been an appropriate use of British taxpayers' money but what sort of humanitarian work is required on the go on Heights Well Israel has for the past. 3 plus years in providing medical aid to Syrian stuff right on its northern record on heights. And that includes refugees fleeing the fighting and in some cases reports of even now even militants from Islamic groups who have turned up on the border. Most of those operations have been quite quiet but recently the Israeli army. Published publicized the number of those operations and what it's called Operation. From the Israeli perspective it's. All created. Reasonably small to help Syrians that come to Israel's border because it's right of course she has a ball. With the war torn country. But it's not seen as a as an Army program and how it was reported in the u.k. That potentially critical Tel was trying to. Get funds for the Israeli army in the occupied territories is very much not how we seen it although the Golan Heights is . Considered occupied territories this was a program of minister by the army because it ministers the board. For you know the benefit of his raised living in that area but for Syrian refugees who have turned up on on the border so it is rope those reports didn't gain quite the same. Reaction as they as they may have in the u.k. And I know you said that some of the meetings that she had were with very minor officials but there is a suggestion that one of those 12 meeting she had while she said she was on holiday was with the prime minister with Mr Netanyahu. This Mr Netanyahu feel the need for I mean it would appear to me feels the need for informal meetings with members of the British Cabinet I think there were. Meetings between Israeli ministers and the prime minister the prime minister happens both formal and informal metal. It's unclear exactly the nature of that meeting and what the. The level of. Of knowledge of the u.k. Foreign ministry was about meeting ever ports that it was rip it it was authorized before and it will be only a few hours I don't know that. There's a sense that the prime minister is like I said trying to form some for the sort of secret back channel. I think many Israeli officials including the prime minister. Pleased by. By pro Israel politicians from the u.k. And other countries that. Want to meet with the Israeli government officials and take those meetings happily. But like I said I don't think. I don't think there was a specific effort to to create some sort. Of secrecy around this around this meeting but again. Potentially some of these some more details of the meetings will come out in the next few days or so now on a general level how is the government of Prime Minister may actually seen in Israel at the moment how do people perceive it well it's seen. As a pro Israel. Ministration that. Post and it's well it's an action says so but it's route. Partly some of the actions are pretty self in you know not seeing should you cope be cutting certain funding the Palestinian Authority based on its payments to the convicted terrorists and specifically last week the public celebration of being 100 year anniversary of the Balfour Declaration was perceived in Israel to be a strong message sent by the British government of the connection between Israel and the and the u.k. . The sense of the internal politics and to raise a maze potentially weakened position since the election is not so much felt here that's. Not seen as a particularly. Important issue in terms of Israel's relationship. With the u.k. There is a sense of worry by. Both the Israeli public and Israeli officials of How about Israel u.k. Relationship saying. A potential prime minister the corporate given his cost statements and actions towards Israel. And. He said these events of the last few days have. Stood some of those those questions about. How how the government might react. Under Labor but on the resignation of Mr Patel from the cabinet it would chime the Israel might be losing quite a good friend in the British government that's certainly true and there is a sense that. The friends of Israel and friends of results may States the fallout over the spent we know friends or so what. These meetings between critical tellings radio specialists there's no doubt basically some changes in isolation. You cancer cells the way they bring you a parliamentarian's to Israel. I think we may see some changes and that. There is a there is a. Bit on the immediate relationship between. The 2 parliaments. That was wrong with the Times of Israel and thank you very much for being with a. Good time to come and just to say the sun rises this morning in Norris that's 6 minutes past.
