Up, its england whove made the best start of the two teams in brisbane. And carol has the weather. With hats and snowfall across parts of scotla nd with hats and snowfall across parts of scotland overnight. We have had. And many of us, dry day with sunny spells but some ship showers around. Still quite windy. I will have more in 15 minutes. First, our main story. Conservative mps have rallied around the chancellor after his budget was overshadowed by a gloomier than expected forecast for economic growth. Philip hammond had been under pressure from some sections of his party ahead of his speech but he announced extra money for the nhs, housebuilding and brexit. Well get the latest analysis from our Political CorrespondentEleanor Garnier in westminster but first, we can hearfrom steph whos just around the corner in salford quays. Steph what were the headlines from this budget . Good morning to you. I think the first thing that came out of the speech from Philip Hammond is that its gone from 2 to one and a half , how growth. That might not sound like much but if you think about it, in money, its about £20 billion. That is about half the money we spend. The other thing we heard about as well is the brexit bill, asked leading the European Union. About £3 billion. We have already spent £700 million so far so this extra 3 billion £3 billion. Extra measures the government wants to do to keep the economy going so we heard about. First time buyers wont have to pay stamp duty. That will make a substantial difference to people buying houses after that point. If they are buying them to the first time. We also heard about more houses being built. 300,000 extra new homes. Whats different measures. Some have gained but whos missed out . Well, we didnt hear anything really about Public Sector pgy anything really about Public Sector pay. Yesterday, i was talking about that, saying there are 5 Million People who work in the Public Sector. They would love to hear about wages going up more than inflation. For a long time, they have been facing a cut in real terms because the cost of living has been growing faster than their pay has. We didnt get anything on that. Nurses and teachers disappointed. Also, social care. A massive problem froze. Certainly quite a few bits missing. I will be chatting to people here throughout the morning. We will hear from you throughout the morning. Lets talk to our Political Correspondents. Eleanor, the chancellor was expected to be under some pressure but colleagues are rallying. Hes managed to silence some of those critics, at least in the short term, a bit like walking away from political danger. He is conservative colleagues verdict has been not massively glowing but not massively derogatory and damaging as well. It wasnt the radical reboot that some had hoped for but equally, not the disaster some had been fearing. There were cheers the vat cut in stamp duty. And the extra cash for the nhs. He seemed to stave offa cash for the nhs. He seemed to stave off a tory rebellion. Also, that £3 billion for brexit. He seemed to appease some of his harshest critics. The labour party are saying there wasnt enough on social care oi wages there wasnt enough on social care or wages and don page. They say ordinary people are being left behind once again. Those rather gloomy Economic Forecasts the growth in productivity suggest the country is going to be feeling poorer for longer. Families and businesses will be feeling the pinch. Philip hammond has managed to keep his fractured party onside for now that the future is certainly challenging. We will be talking to the chancellor, Philip Hammond, after that.

Drinking three orfour drinking three or four cups of coffee a day may have some health benefits. Research published in the british medicaljournal appeared to show a low risk of having a stroke and some cancers. A morning caffeine fix. For many of us, the only way to start the day. But it has long been debated whether that cup of coffee is good or bad for you. I think any more than two cups of coffee kind of accelerated the stress a bit more so i draw the line at two. I feel like most things are good in moderation and if you drink good coffee, then it should be good for your health. I can sometimes drink about six cups and then i cant sleep at night. So its learning what that balance is. To try to find the answer, as doctors at the university of southampton sifted through 200 studies, looking at how coffee affects the body. They say the benefits of drinking 3 4 cups a day outweigh the risks for most people and could lead to a lower likelihood of developing Heart Disease, diabetes and some cancers. Although pregnant women and those at risk of fractures are still advised to steer clear. And researchers say further studies are required before Drinking Coffee to fight disease can be recommended, not least because its often accompanied by cream, sugary syrup or cake.

Interesting how the papers are taking different views. Some people are saying it is effectively the end of austerity. 0thers people are saying it is effectively the end of austerity. Others are just focusing on that gloomy Economic Forecast from the office of a jittery responsibility. We will be speaking city chancellor later on. Yes, just after seven oclock.

So what it has picked up on is that the economy, over the next five years, growth will be below 2 , housing for First Time Buyers. An injection into the nhs. 2. 8 early in pounds.

Jack maynard, you have probably heard this story about him withdrawing from vine they are excellent, in combination with old social media messages. Im a celebrity. We will be discussing that, to what extent things that you put on social media many years ago should be held against you and you should be held against you and you should be held responsible for them as many as have passed. 0ne story on the sun. Not leaving on the budget. It is taking a look at the killer of jamie bolger, saying thatjon ve na bles jamie bolger, saying thatjon venables is back in prison again after he was caught with child abuse images on his computerfor the second time. The 35 year old was arrested last week, the sun says. John, what you have for us . I think this is a great story. The wigan forward who heard his wife had gone into labour, but decided to stay on the horsfield, as he endeavoured to try to score a hat trick. He scored one, heard his wife had drawn into labour at half time. He scored again, then he got a nod from his dad in the crowd saying, i think you need to get going. So he raced off to hospital and arrived in time. Birds. Was it pretty sharpish . Yes, i think within half an hour he arrived in the baby was born. So he could have stayed and chased a hat trick, but risked missing the birth of his child. You dont get those moments back. You dont. You are talking about a hat trick . Any others for us . Well, you can always rely on the sun. United is the topic of barcelona last night, and that means they have not as yet secured their place in the knockout stage. United slipped up against barcelona. So what is the headline . Basel faulty. And you will be keeping an eye on the scene in australia . Yes, it was action are reining in brisbane. England have made a good start. This place is notoriously difficult to win in. Australia have not lost a test at the gabba in years. You just dont wa nt to the gabba in years. You just dont want to lose. I wasjust looking at a couple of stories. Riveted. I am. It isa a couple of stories. Riveted. I am. It is a tiny story in the times, i wasnt sure what to make of it. Your journey to work, commuters should wear protection to avoid going deaf. Scientists claim that noise levels from public transport the same as a rock concert. The screeching of carriages . Yeah. Cyclists, pedestrians . I think they are talking about the tube. It is a study from toronto, they say that normal noise, trams and buses, that is safe. But the risk comes from loud bursts. Im trying to think of what i have heard loud bursts. On the tube commute gabbro loud screeching noises. Do you know what idid screeching noises. Do you know what i did yesterday . This might surprise you to hear that im quite intolerant of people who make unnecessary noise on public trust bought. For example . Without headphones . Yes. I was on the tram, i could hear this beeping, there we re i could hear this beeping, there were people on their phones in the carriage, i was wondering why they hadnt turned it is silent. I got off and asked this gentleman, politely, if he would mind turning his phone on silent, and i realised it was actually the train. Train was squeaking. And he was, like, fumbling around, very nice, and i realise it was the trains i had to apologise to him. Since when did the noise of a train sound like. It was a beeping. A constant, annoying beeping. There you go. He was very nice. You can drive you crazy. Commuter tales. Although there may have been a slight easing of the purse strings, yesterdays budget didnt signal the end of austerity.
