Would have been a big mistake. He mistake . To the music i trained my entire life to play . Racial tension in the deep south is the focus of oscar contender green book . See what mark kermode thought of that on the film review at 5. 45 its five oclock. Im at the m4 in chippenham in wiltshire as the friday night getaway starts. There has been snow all day, in common with much of the rest of southern england. The ma, as you can see behind me, is moving pretty freely, more freely than this morning, and overnight real problems on the roads especially in cornwall with huge snowfall, up to 12 centimetres, meaning hundreds stranded on the m30. Disruption on the railways as well. Many flights delayed or cancelled with problems at Heathrow Airport, also at bristol, cardiff, bournemouth and newquay. The temperatures really low all day as well, and in scotland at braemar it was 15 overnight. The cold est braemar it was 15 overnight. The coldest temperature recorded in the ukfor coldest temperature recorded in the uk for seven years. Lets get the latest from another county hard hit in southern england. My colleague Duncan Kennedy is there with us. We have been driving around berkshire and hampshire all day and it hasnt started snowing. We are at whitchurch and as soon as you come offa whitchurch and as soon as you come off a major road you get this, this road is covered and if you come around here i can show you a few more. This is filling in fast, and this one is completely covered as well. A few minutes ago we had to help push a driver out of this one because he couldnt get any traction. As the snow keeps coming down on the temperature falls, some of these roads are going to become impossible. Somewhere out there is the a34. We are heading north into amber weather territory. The white of a b road. This is the border between berkshire and hampshire and where we meet our first person in difficulty. What are you going to do . Going to turn round. Smiling but struggling. We head on over the m4, where snow and the hills are adding to problems. Hows going . Having to concentrate very ha rd hows going . Having to concentrate very hard and it takes a lot of effort. I am considering turning back at this point. Wondering when i have done my work if i can make it back up the hill. As i approach i am thinking should i turn around and i thinking should i turn around and i think i well actually. We leave him and head on down that hill. We have been driving around berkshire and north hampshire for several hours and wherever we have gone we have had this snow and went really laying it down sector across the countryside and the roads we have been travelling along. In this particular area just north of the m4 the snow is maybe five or six inches deep. Then it was on into a village where getting out could be getting difficult. Tim thinks the small settle m e nt difficult. Tim thinks the small settlement might soon be hemmed in by the snow. You have a big hill and concerns about being cut off . We frequently do get cut off in this weather. It is quite a steep hill with some turns and quite steep drop offs so it is not worth the risk. We will get the toboggan out and go to the hills and see if we can make some fun of it some drivers moved and may wish they hadnt. Whilst others cannot move and wish they could. A few hours in the life of the snowbound south. Those shots might look pretty but it has some difficult conditions. The gritters have been out but really the volume of the snow that has come down today has been incredible and they simply cannot keep up on the road like this and i am not even sure if they got to this particular road. Another row here with some grit laid down because it is filling up grit laid down because it is filling up fast because they have not been able to get back out and repeat the process. For the next few hours, driving around berkshire and up until 0xfordshire will be extremely challenging, and as you were saying, it really is the best advice to check your car is ready to go. We had a driver who couldnt get out of oui had a driver who couldnt get out of our ditch. Make sure you have supplies that you have to make that journey but only make it if it is necessary and you have to go out tonight. All good advice. Duncan kennedy reporting and somebody has just called in, a driver on the m3 saying it is down to just one lane northbound north of winchester, so serious problems. Letsjust show you the picture in the voucher from where we are, on oui you the picture in the voucher from where we are, on our other camera. A look at the countryside around, after hours and hours of snowfall. The snow has stopped now but it has been snowing nearly all day, and new yellow weather warnings coming in from the met office for london, the south east of england and South West England tonight. Yellow warnings of snow and ice and other yellow warnings in place for scotland, wales and northern ireland, so it is right around the United Kingdom that there are problems. Perhaps the worst overnight, as we were reporting, was in cornwall. All those drivers stuck on the m30 and many of them because they were stranded having to take refuge at the jamaica inn. 0ur correspondence has been there. A travellers haven for three centuries, last night again the right place at the right time. The lights of the end were a beacon for drivers. The only way i can describe it as armageddon. I have lived in norway for three months of the year the last nine years and i havent seen anything like this. Lorries jackknifed all over the road. Vehicles everywhere. Taking their ca is vehicles everywhere. Taking their cars out this morning, workmates richer than david. Richard had set off to the inn on foot. The road was a standstill so decided to ditch it and the jamaica inn about a mile away. It was busy and they were setting up beds and were really helpful. Through the night, cold and hungry travellers trudged up the hill to find warmth. Staff gathered mattresses and bedding as chefs dug into their reserves of food. The staff has been amazing. Cannot praise them highly enough. The roads are open, surprise guests on the way, but staff at the old smugglers hideaway know they may be needed again before winter leaves us. This afternoon with blue skies overhead, snow ploughs continuing to work their way of the main roads to clear their way of the main roads to clear the remaining side roads blocked with snow and ice. The temperature only just above freezing, a with snow and ice. The temperature onlyjust above freezing, a biting wind blowing across bodmin moor so it is easy to imagine just how appreciative those drivers were for the welcome they received. Last night, we were in bristol and it snowed all night. Bristol airport was one of the casualties of the heavy snowfall. Lets speak to our reporter scott ellis, who is at Bristol Airport for us now. Just bring us up to date with the latest because they had real problems at Bristol Airport today . You can see them beavering away behind me. The good news is you can see the black tarmac of the runway at last, not the case for most of the day. The snow came in from cornwall last night and this is the second highest airport in the uk. 20 centimetres of snow, sub zero temperatures, so all flights suspended and that has meant nothing coming in and out all day long. 130 flights cancelled, affecting 20,000 passengers. Many of those welsh by passengers. Many of those welsh rugby fans trying to get over to paris fors game, and english rugby fa ns paris fors game, and english rugby fans trying to get over to dublin for tomorrows match. If you hen and stag do blue have had to be rescheduled. They have rescheduled oi rescheduled. They have rescheduled or refunded, and these guys, the good news is you can see these guys and they can get the liquid a ntifreeze and they can get the liquid antifreeze and then they will need it because it is 5 tonight. Officially the runway is now open and we will see aircraft arriving soon, not with passengers, that is just repositioning the aircraft, and the promise is a full schedule of flights from 6am tomorrow morning, but please check before you travel. Good advice, thank you very much. That is the latest from Bristol Airport. A lot of problems today at Heathrow Airport has well and as we have been reporting disruption on the railways and the roads. For the very latest on the travel situation, why not go to the bbc news website oi why not go to the bbc news website or tune into your local bbc radio station, lots of up to date information. Or follow us through the evening here on the bbc news channel. That is it from me now. Back to carrie in the studio. The mother of a three Year Old Girl has become the first to be found guilty of female genital mutilation in the uk. The 37 year old ugandan woman from walthamstow in east london, was accused of cutting her daughter in 2017. The girls father was cleared of the same charges. Our news correspondent Adina Campbell was outside the old bailey earlierjust after the verdict came in. It is an important day here at the old bailey. The uk has its first conviction forfemale old bailey. The uk has its first conviction for female genital mutilation, a crime illegal since 1985, and in the last few minutes the mother of a three Year Old Girl has been found guilty of cutting her daughter back in 2017. The girls father was also on trial and he has been found not guilty and cleared of all the charges against him. As the guilty verdict was read out, the girls mother was heard quivering as the news was announced. This case dates back to 2017 when the girl was just three years old, taken to hospital in london with serious genital injuries and she had been cut in the three separate places. When she got to the hospital, the title she was lying on was com pletely title she was lying on was completely soiled with blood. This trial has been going on for the last three weeks and we have heard some extraordinary evidence, evidence relating to witchcraft. We heard about the mothers interest in witchcraft. Two how tongues and the ingredients used for silencing spells were found in her freezer during a Police Search and the names of police officers, social workers we re of police officers, social workers were all next to those, aiming to silence the people involved in this case. We are told the mother is facing up to 14 years in prison for this offence and this is seen as a breakthrough moment here at the old bailey. This is a crime illegal since 1985 in the uk and today we have the very first conviction for female genital mutilation. The stockpiling of goods and Raw Materials by manufacturers has intensified ahead of brexit according to a new report. Manufacturers stockpiled Raw Materials at their fastest rate on record in january, according to the respected purchasing managers survey, to minimise the risk of supply Chain Disruption in event of no deal. Lets talk to dharshini david, our economics correspondent whojoins me now. So what exactly is being stockpiled . We have heard businesses being urged to do more to prepare for the eventuality of perhaps eight know the old brexit and that is exactly what they have been doing, by the looks of it. The warehouses are full. Raw materials, so if you are a manufacturer you are thinking about your supply chain and you dont want to see interruption. Youre looking at components and Raw Materials. Some firms we are hearing holding up to six month supply, and finished goods as well. Honda telling us they have brought forward production so they can get good south and there wont be any gaps in sales. Also things like ice cream and chocolate and wine and even stationary, those kinds of finished goods are being stocked up by manufacturers and retailers, so that when it comes to the end of march, if there is no deal, we wont see gaps in shops that we might otherwise. That is the reassuring news, but all that stockpiling might be masking Something Else going on beneath the surface. And what might that be . Export orders, and the answer is they are just not there by the sounds of it. The survey also tells us sounds of it. The survey also tells us that customers are perhaps a little nervous about putting in orders, because if you are for example buying goods from overseas, you put in orders sometime in advance normally, particularly if you are buying in batch has large organisations do. And then there are worries about what might happen, if you order now and it arrives after march 29, how much might it cost and what will happen. People behind the survey are saying what this means is that the industry, if you take out the temporary surge in activity from stock building, is looking pretty fragile indeed and they are even warning of the risk of recession. The headlines on bbc news. Millions of commuters are facing nightmare journeys and hundreds of schools closed after heavy snow made at the coldest night in the uk for seven yea rs. At the coldest night in the uk for seven years. In a landmark ruling, the mother of a three Year Old Girl has become the first person in the uk found guilty of female genital mutilation. The United States announces it is suspending compliance with a key Nuclear Arms Control agreement signed with the soviet union during the cold war. And in sport, west indies continue to dominate on day two of the second test against england. England only managing two wickets as the west indies reach 151. The six nations gets under way tonight with wales in paris to take on france and after more than five years, Marouane Fellaini has left the club to play in the Chinese Super league. I will be back with more than all those stories just after 5 30pm. See you then. Now unless youre one of those who have had a new year declutter you might instead have old medicines lurking in the back of a cupboard and those packets of tablets can soon stack up. In north yorkshire, a medicines amnesty is underway, to encourage people to return drugs they no longer need. Patients are also being encouraged to have an annual review to make sure they are on the right medication. Our Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes has been to harrogate to find out more. Weve probably all got them tucked away in cupboards at home old medicines and drugs we no longer use. But they can really pile up. So, chris, what have we got here . Well, this is medicines that have been returned to us today from one patient. One patient one patient, and its approximately five to six months worth of medication that the patient hasnt been taking routinely. So what are the implications of that . If patients arent taking their medicines as has been prescribed then theyre potentially not going to get the best outcomes from their medication. Pharmacy staff have been busy collecting the treatments handed in at this gp surgery in harrogate, during what theyre calling a medicines amnesty. These boxes and bags filled with old or unused tablets, creams and gels. The drugs amnesty here in harrogate has only been going a few days and theyve already collected all these boxes of used and out of date medicines. Now here they spend around £25 million each year on drugs thats around three million different items. If they managed to save just 1 , thats £250,000 that could go straight back into local health services. But this is notjust about saving money. Now, youre taking 14 medications, arent you . Thats right, yes. And i wonder if it would be usefulfor us to do a medication review today . Its also an opportunity forgps, like sarah, to talk to patients, like evonne, to look at all the medicines she takes every day. It is very important for patients to know that gps or pharmacists can review medications as a whole and ask the patient how theyre managing. We can look at whether theyre managing to remember the tablets, sometimes we can change how we prescribe the tablets, change the timings of the tablets, or the type of medication, so that the medications get used in the way that theyre designed. I need to make sure im on the right thing and anything that can be changed to make life easier is always a good thing. Its important that my tablets are correct and that im taking the right thing. The medicines amnesty and the chance to review whats being prescribed also presents a big opportunity for the wider nhs. We know that 8 of hospital admissions are medicines related. 30 50 of medicines are not taken the way theyre intended. These things are all designed to help you as the patient get the best from your medicine. The nhs spends around £20 billion each year on prescribed medicines, so even a small reduction in whats wasted would save a significant amount of cash while also improving care. Dominic hughes, bbc news, harrogate. The United States has announced that it is suspending compliance with a key Nuclear Arms Control agreement, signed with the soviet union during the cold war. The secretary of state mike pompeo said russia had violated the terms of the agreement by developing a new cruise missile. Moscow has rejected the accusation and warned that the the us move would be a powerful blow to the International System of non proliferation. Heres what the us secretary of state had to say earlier. We provided russia an ample window of time to mend its ways and for russia to honour its commitment. Tomorrow that time runs out. Russia has refused to take any steps to return real and verifiable compliance over the 60 days. The United States will therefore suspend its obligations under the inf treaty effective february 2nd. We will provide russia and the other treaty parties with formal notice that the United States is withdrawing from the inf treaty effective in six months, pursuing to article 15 of the treaty. Russia has jeopardised the United States security interests and we can no longer be restricted by the treaty while russia shamelessly violates it. If russia does not return to full and verifiable compliance with the treaty within the six month period, by verifiably destroying its inf violating missiles, their launchers and other associated equipment, the treaty will terminate. Thats the view from washington. Lets talk to our washington correspondent, jane obrien. Is there any chance that the russians are going to comply . M doesnt seem very likely, in particular from the doesnt seem very likely, in particularfrom the us perspective, but the whole reason the us are doing this is because they think the treaty is out of date, and not mentioned by mike pompeo was china. China is not banned by this particular treaty and the us also feels that it is being hampered than trying to meet any potential military threat from china by being bound by the terms of this treaty, this Bilateral Agreement with russia. What mike pompeo is trying to say is that they feel the us is ata to say is that they feel the us is at a military disadvantage and withdrawing from this treaty enables them to meet a variety of National Security issues on an equal playing field. A sense in a way that the treaty had outlived its usefulness. Does that mean that they will go ahead and develop medium range weapons . That is another issue and mike pompeo said that the Trump Administration has no Nuclear Proliferation very high on its agenda, and what is also interesting is we just agenda, and what is also interesting is wejust had agenda, and what is also interesting is we just had the worldwide threat assessment here in washington and intelligence chiefs say that the threat from russia seems to be more Cyber Security, meddling in elections and trying to interfere with democratic processes around the world. They do see that russia remains the greatest adversary when it comes to weapons of mass destruction, but that was almost a side issue, apart from the Cyber Security threat that they feel russia poses. So it doesnt seem there are any immediate plans to try and build these new weapons or even move them into place in europe, but it certainly allows the us to be able to do so. In an interview with the new york times, President Trump has dismissed ongoing talks in congress about funding a wall on the mexico border as a waste of time. Donald trump told the paper hed all but given up negotiating with the democrats and would get the wall finished on his own. The democrats are refusing to agree to the 5. 7 billion that mr trump wants for the wall. Now lets take a look at some of todays other news stories. Tsb has posted a pre tax loss of more than £100 million for 2018, following a significant profit the year before.

The inimitablejeremy hardy who has died at the age of 57. Time for a look at the weather, with phil avery. We have carried the tale of what has happened widely across the news through the day and my concerns are now very much focused on what is happening as we speak because it is not just lying snow and happening as we speak because it is notjust lying snow and ice, which are always going to be a problem, it is what is falling now. This particular area of snow concentrated very much in central and southern england. Problems on m4 and further wintry showers further north where you are fully exposed to the north easterly wind in what is going to be another cold night. Somewhere is going to see 10 or so but saturday is not a write off, beautifully clear skies across central and western parts. Further wintry showers across northern and eastern parts and then we continue that cool theme into sunday where we eventually bring a front from west to east with further snow for some. This is bbc news, the headlines. Heavy snow causes hundreds of schools to close across wales and southern england, after the uk suffered its coldest night for seven years.

The founder of irans Islamic Republic Ayatollah Khomeini, returned to iran after fourteen years in exile. Ayatollah khomeinis return was met with jubilation on the streets of tehran. Footage of the event shows supporters gathering in their thousands to greet him on the tarmac. An outspoken critic of irans ruler at the time, Mohammad Reza shah pahlavi, his return was crucial to the success of the iranian revolution that same year. The shah was overthrown, paving the way for the establishment of the Islamic Republic and Ayatollah Khomeinis rise to supreme leader. One man who witnessed power in the country change hands was our World Affairs editorjohn simpson, whojoins me now. So you managed to get onto the plane that was carrying Ayatollah Khomeini, which landed two weeks after the shah was deposed and exiled in egypt. Lets have a look at what happened. 15 days later khomeini was on this historic flight home. When i asked what his emotions were he pointedly ignored me. A moment later someone else asked again what he felt. Nothing, he said. The Political Initiative now lies totally with the ayatollah. Now that he is back he will very soon announce the establishment of a government of his own. The existing bakhtiar government will be declared illegal, but for vast numbers of people in iran the bakhtiar government is itself irrelevant. The real contest will be between the ayatollah and the shahs army which hasnt yet shown signs of abandoning its old loyalties. But its shows of strength have been dwarfed by the enormous welcome the ayatollahs supporters are giving him here. That was a younger version of yourself. Does it take you back to that day . It does. I remember the whole flight so well and that extraordinary welcome that was given. There were perhaps 3 Million People on the streets. Why was it that they came out to greet him like that . What was so significant about that . What was so significant about that moment for the people of iran . Everybody managed to convince themselves that he was their saviour. By everybody i mean the most extreme conservative clergymen who all believe, and they were right, that he was the way forward, but also the left wingers believed that somehow or another getting rid of the shah would bring about the new around, a wonderful new, liberal iran. And ordinary liberal minded people also convinced themselves it would all work out very well. Most of them were wrong. Before we go to why they were wrong, why did they even think it . It is quite a trick to manage to convince all those different groups that you are at their saviour. That really is the big question that any story of the period has got to answer. The fact is that people were sick of the shah, they hated what had happened, all that enormous oil wealth that had come into the country was seeping out in corruption to very few people. A lot of the more a kind of religious and more rural people we re of religious and more rural people were horrified by the changes, the westernisation that was going on. Girls in miniskirts, girls showing their hair, this kind of thing shocked people immensely. It was all a kind of balancing act that ayatolla h a kind of balancing act that Ayatollah Khomeini managed to do. He got his advisers for each of those different groups and those advisers would say to their group of people that coming is your man, it will be what you want. We have that moment when he comes down and everyone is on the tarmac and the whole country is full of hope about what can be achieved will stop you said their hopes did not happen in many cases, what happened briefly . In the subsequent 40 years. So many bad things happened in iran. There was an extraordinary outbreak of terrorism which cost the lives of many senior people in the government. Saddam hussein attacked iran in1980, government. Saddam hussein attacked iran in 1980, launched the war which went on for eight years, the iran iraq war, which cost the lives of about half a Million People in iran. Throughout all of this the government gradually increased its control, its hold on every aspect of society. It was on the economy and they introduce all the rules that you can introduce during wartime to control the way that people spoke and what they did and how they behaved. That had enormous effect even when the war was finished in 1988. Still those controls have stayed in place and they have stayed in place ever since. The fact is, there is no real alternative at the moment to the way that the country is run. Do you feel that those controls are there because ideological lead that is what that theocratic regime believes them, or are they there because it is afraid and it got into a kind of victim psychology, or a defensive psychology, or a defensive psychology during the iran iraq war during that early period . psychology during the iran iraq war during that early period . I think it is the first thing. I think they wa nt is the first thing. I think they want the kind of controls over society. Iran is an extraordinary place. Election after election over the years has produced vast majorities in favour of liberal candidates and we have had two major liberal president s and in both cases all elected with 85 of the vote. In every case everything they want to do to liberalise the society has been stopped by the conservatives because the way the constitution works in iran the supreme leader, the successor of khomeini, he has a similar name, he stops any kind of liberalisation happening. I do not think they are scared any more of the outside world. They are scared of what might happen if there is trouble inside iran. Over the years we have had these moments were the young people of iran were ready to shake the bars of this theocratic cage they are in and yet what you are saying is it has not really happen. 40 years on from that revolution where do we stand now . M 2009, a key day, there was an election and the liberal candidate clearly won it. But the structure of the society would not allow that to happen and the supreme ruler stepped in and said no, the conservative candidate had won it. There were big upheavals, a big uprising, and it looked for a moment, i was there at the time, it looked for a moment as though another revolution was going to happen. But it was crushed so brutally and cruelly that really there has been no repeat in the ten yea rs there has been no repeat in the ten years that have followed. And you have not been allowed to go back in. Nobody from the bbc is. Thank you so much. So interesting to talk about those 40 years in iran. We are staying with international news. We are staying with international news. Its a week since a dam burst in brazil sending millions of tons of mining waste across an area that engulfed the mines cafeteria, nearby houses, vehicles and roads. 110 people are now known to have died with hundreds still missing. The tragedy happened in the state of minas gerais and is the second dam collapse to have occured there in recent years. The governments now raised grave concerns about other dams in surrounding areas as Julia Carneiro reports. Devastation as far as the eye can see. This is waste from Iron Ore Mining engulfing houses, trees, trucks, and hundreds of people believed to be buried under the mud. The dam, owned by mining giant vale, collapsed in the brazilian state of minas gerais in the city of brumadinho. Just over three years ago, another dam failed in mariana, only 120km away. Now attention turns to neighbouring cities like congonhas, home to one of the biggest urban dams in latin america. This is the Casa De Pedra dam, owned by csn. Its right next to the city and holds five times more mining waste than the dam that collapsed in brumadinho. When this neighbourhood here was built, the dam was a lot smaller but it was expanded over the years, growing closer and closer to the houses. Its just 250m from some of the constructions, and after what happened in brumadinho, residents here say its either them or the dam they dont feel safe here any more. Translation im terrified, i wake up scared, i have nightmares. Ifear this could happen here too. We live right under the dam im scared for everyone here. This activist says theres no dialogue with csn. The company did not want to comment on this report. Translation the lesson comes at a huge cost, with all the lives we lost, but it has to be applied to prevent other collapses. People here want a solution they dont want to live in doubt. Structural problems were detected twice in the dam in the past six years, according to this prosecutor, and were repaired following judicial orders. At the time, csn said the demands had been followed, and the dam presented no risks for workers and residents. Translation its a huge structure, very close to the city.
