In his first state of the Union Address, mr trump said hed introduced record tax cuts for everyone, the stock market was booming, jobs were being created and unemployment was at a record low. The era of economic surrender is totally over. Unemployment claims have hit a 45 year low. For many yea rs have hit a 45 year low. For many Years Companies and jobs were only leaving us, but now they are roaring back, theyre coming back, they want to be where the action is, they want to be where the action is, they want to be where the action is, they want to be in the United States of america. Thats what they want. David willis was listening closely, what is your analysis . Very considerate read tone struck by president trump. Not something we are used to perhaps from him. He talked about the need for immigration reform. He said that they should put aside the differences they have in congress and seek out Common Ground as he put it. He also said he was keeping guantanamo be, the military prison in cuba that his predecessor, barack obama, had tried so hard to close, open. He put the spotlight on a crippled north Korean Defector who waved a crutch in the air as he received a standing ovation from members of congress. It was one hours and 20 minutes, the third longest state of the Union Address on record and it offered very few new details on how he planned to go about framing the legislation he spoke of but its a new conciliatory tone but the question is, how long will it last . David, we dont know the answer but thank you very much for that. More on that at around 6 40am.

The Prime Minister has responded to a series of attacks on her leadership by declaring shes not a quitter. Theresa may told journalists there was a long term job to be done and that she was serving her country and party. She made the comments before touching down in china on a trade mission. Mrs may is hoping to strengthen relations with beijing, but said she wouldnt shy away from the difficult issues. Lets speak to our china correspondent robin brant. Robin, good morning. From what she has had to say before shes even arrived in china, you can tell this is an important trip for the Prime Minister . Hugely important anyway for the uk economy irrespective of leadership concerns or brexit, china is heading for the worlds biggest economy spot and the uk only exports about £17 billion of goods and services to it a year, it exports more to belgium, so there has to be improvement in terms of where china is going and if the uk will benefit from this economic relationship. Shes been at a university in wuhan, five hours from here on the train, a huge student population, the export of education is a big dealfor the uk and theres Financial Services and legal services, insurance, uk and theres Financial Services and legalservices, insurance, china signalled late last year it is looking to change the ownership rules so british firms can capitalise on that here but the issue of leadership has followed her here, as always. In comments to collea g u es here, as always. In comments to colleagues on the plane over she had this to ona on a snipe from a former minister, a tory mp, suggesting she is governing like a tortoise when what the country needs is a lion. This is what she said the focus on this trip is very much trade but i think she is lukewarm in comparison to her predecessor David Cameron on the china uk relationship. She has concerns about China Capital and respecting the rule book when it comes to international trade, that is something she reminded the chinese about ina something she reminded the chinese about in a piece in the Financial Times this morning but she said you will address issues of hong kong and human rights behind the scenes. Two officials from hawaiis Emergency Management agency have resigned after a Ballistic Missile alert was sent in error. It took the authorities 38 minutes to correct the message which caused widespread panic across the island earlier this month. A third man thought to be responsible for the message has been fired. An investigation found a combination of human error and inadequate safeguards were responsible. Lets introduce you to wikie the whale. Shes in many of the papers this morning for being the first whale in the world to speak english. Researchers were keen to learn more about the way killer whales communicate and whether, like humans, they could learn new dialect by imitating sounds. So, they taught wikie some new words. Lets take a listen. 0ne, one, two, three. Theres another one, theres another one. Have we got hello . Was that hello . 0ne, one, theres another one. Have we got hello . Was that hello . One, two, three, could you tell it was that . Ifi three, could you tell it was that . If i think i spoke whale it would be one, two, three. Wikie also learnt some other words during the experiment, including hello and the name amy. Scientists say the ability to learn new sounds is a sign of intelligence and is very rare amongst mammals. We will talk about her more later but shes in captivity, she isnt going to be released, they are trying to work with her so they can learn and help other animals in the wild. To me that sounded like something very different from one, two, three. Maybe if you are tuned to the whale noise. Her hello is much more convincing. We will try to get the bottom of this one that is the news this morning carol will have the weather in a few minutes. Sonali is here, is it tra nsfer minutes.

It allowed swanseas jordan ayew to score a tap in which put the hosts ahead, before a second goalfrom sam clucas made sure a win was in the bag.

In terms of the rest of the uk it is a cold start, cold air filtering straight down from iceland and also the risk of ice first thing this morning if you are travelling. The forecast for today is a cold wind and also some wintry showers. If we take a look at the graphics around the country, we already have that across scotland. Quite a bit of snow falling in the last hour or two, so snow showers and in between them through the day we will see drier and brighter conditions. At 9am the temperature in aberdeen will be two celsius. Showers across the pennines, for example, but in between brighter skies, and a lot of dry weather as well.

Hit and miss whether you get it, we have some in london but it is fairly light. In between it will be brighter and in the south west it is a cold start as well. It will become colder through the course of the morning. In wales, one or two showers, some of them with some wet snow or hail as we go through the day, and for Northern Ireland we are back into the proper snow, and in between some brighter skies. Most of the accumulations of snow today will be on the hills, or indeed in the mountains. As we go through the day, we hang on to those snow showers in scotland, Northern England and Northern Ireland, interspersed with some brighter skies. We lose the weather fronts from the south, and behind them some brighter conditions and sunshine coming through. And still some showers. It will go down, generally between we are looking between three and five celsius. As we head into the evening and overnight, it will be still windy. We are looking at some gales across parts of the north and north east of scotland, for example, and it will bea scotland, for example, and it will be a windy night generally. We still have the snow showers in the north, the risk of ice, one or two showers further south but a lot of dry weather. Tomorrow, the strongest winds will be across the north and north west of scotland, with exposure. 0nce north west of scotland, with exposure. Once again we could be looking at gales. Still some wintry showers in the north, but they are still showers so a lot of us missing them and seeing some dry condition. A breezy day, temperatures a little bit higher than we were looking at today, but only a little bit. As we head on into friday, a region of High Pressure builds across us. For most of us it will settle down. Again, a lot of dry weather. A fair bit of sunshine around. Showers and exposure in the east, that is where the strongest wind will be, and as we head into the weekend we have a weather front coming our way. We head into the weekend we have a weatherfront coming our way. Again it will be introducing some rain.

Lets get more detail now from breakfasts john maguire who is at the Portsmouth InternationalFerry Terminal for us. Follow the footsteps, john . Exactly, you have stolen my opening line. It is the footsteps to brexit, that is what we are looking out over the next 1a months or so. Some of the most important things and perhaps some of the things you were thinking about when you went into the polling booths 18 months ago, were about our borders and security.
