This time, it is a civilfraud trial. Hes accused of inflating the value of his assets by billions of dollars to secure better loan and insurance terms. Before entering court, mr trump berated the us Justice System and the new York Attorney general who is bringing the case. He described Letitia James as racist and a horrow show. And he dismissed the case as a sham and a scam. He also denied the claims against him. We have a great company. I built a great company. Its got tremendous value. Its got some of the greatest real estate assets in the world. And now i have to go before a roguejudge, as a continuation of russia, russia, russia, as a continuation of the greatest witch hunt of all time, and i dont think the people of this country are going to stand for it. If i werent leading in all the polls, or if i werent running, i wouldnt have any of these cases, i wouldnt be seeing you this morning. But ill be seeing a lot of you, because this is a horrible thing thats happening to our co
From new york Gary Odonoghue reports. Donald trump on his way to court yet again. The question this time around is he as rich as he says he is . Its a scam, its a sham. Just so you know, my Financial Statements are phenomenal. And while the former president cant be sent to jail, you as it is a civil trial, this one has really riled him up. And the Violent Crime that is being committed in our city and our state is disgraceful, and were going be here for months, with a judge that already made up his mind, its ridiculous hes a democratjudge, hes an operative, and its ridiculous. Attacking thejudge is a curious tactic, since he will decide on damages. Hes already ruled that mr trump and his children acted fraudulently. But the new York Attorney general is suing mr trump for 250 million for overstating the value of his properties to get cheap loans. No matter how powerful you are, no matter how much money you think you may have, no one is Above The Law. And it is my responsibility and my du

This is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. Large scale trials of a Coronavirus Vaccine developed by Oxford University and astrazeneca show it is 70 effective at preventing covid 19, rising to 90 depending on the dosage.

And importantly, in anyone who had the vaccine, there were no admissions to hospital, no severe disease. The uk government has secured 100 million doses of the vaccine enough for most of the uk population. We hope to be able to start vaccinating next month. The bulk of the vaccine roll out programme will be in january, february, march. And we hope that sometime after easter, things will be able to start to get back to normal. Its expected all shops in england will be allowed to open in the lead up to christmas, but pubs and restaurants could face tougher restrictions as part of new government measures to fight coronavirus.
