In a crucial week for talks with the eu over future trade arrangements, the home secretary says the uk will not surrender too quickly in its bid for a bespoke deal. Amber rudd also hit out at the brexiteer conservative mps, saying the cabinet was more united on brexit than they might think. Tomorrow, the eus chief negotiator, michel barnier, will be in london for talks. Michel barnier, will be later in the week, a Cabinet Committee will be seeking to agree on future policy. Committee will be seeking our political correspondent, eleanor garnier, reports. Putting the uk on the world map, the Prime Ministers been preparing for life outside the eu, taking tea in china, and helping to secure billions of pounds of business deals. Billions of pounds of business but reaching agreement on the other side of the world perhaps much easier than solving disagreements in her own of disunity about the type of brexit they want. I have a surprise for the brexiteers, which is the committee that meet in order to help make these decisions and is meeting, as you make these decisions rightly say, twice this week is more united than they think. We meet in the committee, we meet privately for discussions. We meet privately i think that we will arrive at something which suits us all. At something which suits exactly how we trade with the eu after brexit is the source of division in the tories. After brexit is the source of some want complete disentanglement from brussels others hope to stay as close to the eu as possible. The home secretary believes the governments priorities are clear. Believes the governments we want frictionless trade at the border, we want to make sure theres no border on the island of ireland, and we want to make sure that we can do trade deals outside of the european union. Of the thats the deal werre looking for. Of the but its clear to all in the conservative party how difficult it will be to get everyone on site. There are inherent tensions in dealing with brexit because different people take different views. Its notjust in the conservative party, notjust in the labour party its across the country. It actually needs a bit of a team effort here, thats what im saying loud and clear. Effort here, thats what im so far, the Prime Minister has managed to prevent that decades old split in the conservative party over europe from spilling out into something much more serious, something that could lead to the collapse of her government. But this week, there are crucial cabinet meetings here, with pressure to finally pin down an agreed position on our future relationship with the eu. An agreed position on our future but its notjust a battle at home winning in brussels is key, too. At home winning and with more negotiations with the eu this week, the next few days could be pivotal for the Prime Minister and the country. Pivotal for the Prime Minister and eleanor is here now. Pivotal for the Prime Minister and will pivotalfor the Prime Minister and we, by the will pivotal for the Prime Minister and we, by the end will pivotalfor the Prime Minister and we, by the end have will we, by the end of the week, have clarity on the position we are going to take in the brexit talks . That is certainly the aim. You will remember the phrase brexit means brexit that the Prime Minister used to use. The pressure is on the government this would finally make its mind up about what brexit actually does mean. After the trip to china, brexit is firmly back on the agenda, right at the top, because we have the eu chief negotiator in downing street tomorrow for talks. Later in the week, that small group of senior ministers in the brexit cabinet will get together for those critical talks, and surely compromise, because theresa may has found it difficult enough to get agreement among her ministers throughout the negotiations so far, so throughout the negotiations so far, so getting consent is this week is likely to be more complicated than what has gone before. It is that decision on whether to bind tightly to the eu when the leave to pull far apart that is the dividing line between the two competing factions in the conservative party. One side will need to give in order for there to be an agreed government position. A deal is wanted by october, to leave time for it to be voted on, so time is running out. As one minister told me this week, it isnt going to get easier with time. Eleanor, thank you. Two people have been killed and at least 116 injured in a rail crash in the us state of south carolina.

Senior officials from south africas governing anc are meeting president zuma tonight as he faces increasing pressure to stand down. Many officials would like to replace him after allegations of corruption and to avoid a long power struggle before elections take place next year. Before elections take our Southern Africa correspondent, andrew harding, reports. Hes swamped by scandal. South africas president , jacob zuma, has already been found guilty of breaking his oath of office when he upgraded his private home lavishly at the taxpayers expense. When he upgraded his private home more recently, his friendship with the controversial business family, the guptas, has fuelled allegations of massive corruption state capture, they call it here. During the zuma presidency, south africa has foundered. The economy is struggling and unemployment is soaring, amid a sense that senior officials could get away with anything. But in december, zuma and his allies lost control of the governing anc. The new man, cyril ramaphosa, promising to end impunity. Everyone agrees that our state was captured by people who purported to be close to the president , who have been doing really bad things and getting into all and many state institutions. And suddenly, there is real change in the air here. Prosecutors seizing this state farm in connection with alleged fraud by the gupta family and government officials. And the courts pursuing corruption charges against president zuma himself. Corruption charges against i think these are real historic moments in South African politics. In all likelihood, we are going to see arrests and big people being caught up in this. To see arrests and big people because a wheel is turning, momentum is developing. And i dont think there is to be any turning back. For now, zuma is clinging to hisjob, but his allies are deserting him and tonight Party Leaders are meeting him to discuss his removal. Leaders are meeting him in places like zimbabwe and kenya, we have seen this sort of situation turn ugly and dangerous. We have seen this sort of situation but south africa is still a robust democracy. So, whether he is pushed or hejumps, president zuma will soon be out of power, and, most likely, in court on corruption charges. And, most likely, in court it is a moment of drama and optimism for a country poised to exit the troubled zuma era. For a country poised to exit andrew harding, bbc news, johannesburg.

He is under pressure to make cuts against the strong funding cases being made by other government departments, but also faces arguments from military chiefs that defence must be a priority. Since 2010, our military has been cut by a third in its capability. If this new round of cuts come, it will have been cut by half. Can you imagine if we had half the number of hospitals . Spending on defence has fluctuated over decades. Rising when British Forces are involved in a live conflict, but since 2010, the figures show a consistent decrease, reinforced by austerity measures. A consistent decrease, defence is now more complex and sophisticated than ever before. The head of the army recently warned of russias increasingly powerful and aggressive military. Of russias increasingly powerful a capability he said the uk would struggle to match. But as well as traditional battles, there is now a technological fight that also needs money and resources. There is now a technological fight i think in the Cabinet Office there is a suspicion that defence hasnt delivered the savings they had promised to in 2015, and they have to put defence up against the wall now to make them deliver the savings that were promised.

Fielding a joint womens the friendly match against sweden took place on the outskirts of south koreas capital, seoul, as the country prepares to host the winter olympics. Seoul, as the country prepares our seoul correspondent, laura bicker, sent this report. Fierce and determined, the korean players head onto the rink to prove they are not just pawns in a political drama, or an experiment in sports diplomacy. They fight hard against high ranking sweden, willed on by a crowd eager to witness a piece of history, and waving the flag of a unified korea. The translation i was so touched. The i feel so good because i felt the passion of the players, and it felt like we were one together. Passion of the players, and it felt it was very meaningful to all of us, and especially for my son, it was a very meaningful event. But this teams formation has been controversial. The south korean hockey coach has had to tell players shes worked with for years that theyve lost their spot to make way for north koreans such as this player. Their spot to make way for north were not allowed to ask the north koreans any questions at the press conference, but the south korean coach was frank when i asked her about the challenges. So, adding players that close to the olympics that havent been with us for the last four years, learning our systems, kind of understanding how our team plays is difficult. The north korean language is different than south korean, so for our team meetings, it is going through to english, to south korean to north korean, so the meetings take three times as long, and its really hard when, you know, you have three different languages on one team. You have three different the event feels like a celebration, but playing as one team under one flag has not been welcomed by the Younger Generation in south korea. Has not been welcomed by the younger to them, unifying the two countries is a very distant goal. Countries is a very the problem with the young generation, and the sentiment towards korea is, they do not really trust them. And they have seen, and we all have seen, flip flopping and breaking the promises by north korea. So, they do not really share the feeling of like one nation with north korea. Share the feeling of like the north korean players will not stay with their team mates at the athletes village. Theyll be kept in separate accommodation and watched over by minders. Accommodation and sweden won the match today, 3 1, but for north and south korea, fielding a joint team will be viewed as a small victory for diplomacy.
