set up the scale of the problem and the effects of it. i mean, in terms it's 8am in singapore and midnight here in london, where british mps have learned they will be given another vote of tackling it, to limit temperature on theresa may's brexit rises, i was looking at things that people do on an individual level or deal on friday. but they will only be asked does this have to be done on the to decide on the part scale of multinational corporations to do with the divorce settlement. and countries taking action? so i and that means the other part — the future relationship between the eu and

interesting painting by the british artist banksy is back on display. devolved parliament — his biggest—known work on canvas — depicts politicians in the house of commons as chimpanzees, there's a

weatherfront you might want to call tomorrow will give a bit of rain through the day of meaningful vote 2.5, because mps will only be asked to vote on the divorce deal northern scotland on friday. not with the european union. they won't be asked to give another judgement on the whole package, very much as it moves south over the which includes a plan weekend. that other weather change for the long

it's another outrage warm in the sunny spells, maybe 18 by the prime minister trying to circumvent parliament, degrees in south—east england. take attempting to bash us a look at things through friday all over the head yet again. and i don't think it will work. night and into saturday morning, remember that weather front is still and that's why i'm working very closely with colleagues here, edging slowly further south across parties to try and find solutions because we need a way out through scotland, a little snow to of this crisis. the high hills. to the south of that and number ten is trying

those the number of people killed temperatures have come down. the's when a fire swept through a tower your forecast. just that's your block in the bangladeshi capital dhaka could rise sharply. at least 19 people were killed, forecast. but officials say many people are still unaccounted for. three saudi women activists who were put on trial two weeks ago have been granted temporary release. retired lecturer aziza al—youssef, who is pictured here, academic rokaya al—mohareb, and blogger eman al—nafjan are accused of breaking the country's cyber—crime laws. and if you've ever wondered what the world's biggest salt cave looks like, then take a look at this. israeli researchers say they have discovered ten kilometres of tunnels under the dead sea. coincidentally, that's not far from the place where, according to the bible, lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt. these caves, however, were formed by natural erosion. let's get more now on our main story this hour — the brexit deadlock. now, under the original timetable, the uk was supposed to leave the eu on friday night. but that's been delayed for at least two weeks. 0ur deputy political editorjon pienaar looks at what could happen next. for theresa may, parliament's become a hostile environment. every pm admits there's something scary about the commons. theresa may could be forgiven for hating this place. her brexit deal has been blocked twice, so the plan now — try again to win the house and buy time to get her deal through. tomorrow is about the eu divorce, and the fight over britain's future relationship with europe still comes later. and it still looks tough. promising to go failed to do the trick. as someone put it, she fell on her sword and missed. as for the post—brexit future, well, mps couldn't agree an alternative plan yesterday. but a so—called softer brexit — sticking with eu customs rules — came close. a new referendum wasn't far off, either. and that's frightened some brexiteers, who are coming to see mrs may's deal as the best brexit on offer — just not enough. so, britain may end up back in brussels seeking more time. the eu gave mrs may until tomorrow to agree a deal, if it wants a brexit extension to may the 22nd to fix the details. or, if her dealfails, face a tighter deadline on april the 12th. that, on paper, could mean a no—deal brexit in a fortnight. now, team may is hoping they can at least get mps behind the terms of divorce, the withdrawal agreement, and that'd be enough to get past april the 12th and give britain till the third week in may to get the whole brexit deal passed. 0therwise, there'd be two weeks to agree something else — a softer brexit, a referendum, even, some say, a snap general election. and that would mean asking for more time, maybe a much longer extension. the eu could well agree, though it's the last thing brexiteers in and outside the government want, let alone theresa may. so, the prime minister's still trying to beat the odds again tomorrow, hoping to keep her plan alive, to pass on a legacy, to be the pm who settles brexit. until the next big row, that is, under new management at number ten. john pienaar there. we will, of course, bring you live coverage of those votes here on bbc world news. and with so much to take in, you'll be relieved to know there's a special brexit section on our website. you'll find all of the issues explained, also in—depth analysis from our correspondents. just log on to bbc.com/news, or download the bbc app. well, it's been two weeks since a mass shooting in new zealand took the lives of 50 people at two mosques in christchurch. a national service of remembrance has been held in the city and broadcast on television. this is prime minister jacinda ardern addressing the nation. 0ur challenge now is to make the very best of us a daily reality, because we are not immune to the viruses of hate, of fear, of other, we never have been, but we can be the nation that discovers the cure. 0ur correspondent, hywel griffith, is in christchurch, where the service took place. he told us more about the prime minister's message. it was one really of unity, rejecting the bases and hatred that we saw him in christchurch two weeks ago and answering it with solidarity. now that is something we have seen time and again day after day, but i think something people here in christchurch particularly wa nt to here in christchurch particularly want to share publicly. we saw probably around 10,000 people here in the park standing together to share that message it was broadcast live across the nation, so the hope is that something positive can come out of this tragedy. and you have been speaking to some survivors, what are people feeling right now two weeks since the country's worst terrorist attack? yeah, i think some people are still finding it hard to process what they witnessed. i was speaking to one survivor who saved his own life by hiding in a toilet, saved other people's lives by sending the messages, and i think he was talking about those moments, he still could not quite believe what happened to him and sadly to some of the frenzy lost, some of those bodies he saw with his own eyes after the government been to the mosque. —— the friends he lost. so it will inevitably take some time for those wounds to heal but there is inevitably supportive, people are still volunteering, people are taking food to the families of the bereaved, people are still donating money because it will take a long time to help these families through all the problems ahead of them. i think ultimately, these will be days that christchurch does not forget that christchurch does not forget that it that christchurch does not forget thatitis that christchurch does not forget that it is trying to take a positive message from such tragedy. positive message from such tragedy. positive message and his life now returning back to normal in christchurch? -- ‘s life. i think we have seen some signs of abnormality, —— i think there are some signs of normality, people have to carry on. shops have been open for the last two weeks, but now and again you see hence that wings are not quite normal, the corners, the flowers laid at several sites in the city, including the biggest at the botanic gardens, they will have to eventually decide what to do with all of the flowers. there is talk of a permanent memorial here. it is a city which sadly in the last decade has had to deal with such trauma and tragedy but it is one that is resilient, so you see that when you speak to people here, going back to their day—to—day lives, being sure that they go back feeling strong supporting those who are still in grief. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme... half of all childhood cancer cases across the world are found in asia. we hear from the doctors meeting here in singapore about what they're calling the ‘war on cancer'. also on the programme... no kissing, please. we'll explain why pope francis was so keen to keep worshippers's lips off his papal ring. the accident that happened here was of the sort that can at worst produce a meltdown. in this case the precautions worked, but they didn't work quite well enough to prevent some old fears about the safety features of these stations from resurfacing. the republic of ireland has become the first country in the world to ban smoking in the workplace. from today, anyone lighting up in offices, businesses, pubs and restaurants will face a heavy fine. the president was on his way out of the washington hilton hotel, where he had been addressing a trade union conference. the small crowd outside included his assailant. it has become a symbol of paris. 100 years ago, many parisians wished it had never been built. the eiffel tower's birthday is being marked by a re—enactment of the first ascent by gustave eiffel. welcome back, everyone. this is newsday on the bbc. good to see you. i'm ben bland in london. our top stories: british mps will get a third chance to vote on theresa may's brexit deal on friday, but this time only part of it. new zealand's national remembrance for the 50 people shot dead in two mosques a fortnight ago. the prime minister says violence and hate are not welcome. 0le gunnar solskjaer says it's his "ultimate dream come true" to be appointed permanent manager of manchester united. he spent 11 seasons there as a player, and the team have won 1a out of 19 games under his leadership. we'll have more on that in sport today in half an hour's time. let's take a look at some front pages from around the world. starting with the website of the bangkok post, which says thailand's election commission in thailand has announced that the party supporting the current military government won the popular vote in sunday's general election. the official result is expected in may. coalition talks are already under way. gulf news leads on an investigation into iranians selling oil on the high seas — in violation of us sanctions. the investigation by reuters found a tanker disappearing from radar for two weeks, before reappearing in the gulf pumping oil to smaller vessels. and the japan times has the story of 85—year—old koki miyata, finally cleared of murdering a friend more than three decades ago. he now lives in a nursing home, where he was told of his acquittal. those are the papers. now, ben, some unexpected behaviour from the pope is trending online. yes, it's this footage of pope francis meeting worshippers at loreto in northern italy. and, as you can see, he's not going along with the traditional way of greeting the pope — kissing his ring. he repeatedly snatches his hands away from anyone who tries to do so. rather confusing one or two of the faithful. the tradition goes back centuries, and signifies obedience. a spokesperson for the vatican said the pope was simply trying to be hygienic, and stop the risk of any germs spreading between those greeting him. now, we know asia is the largest continent in the world in both size and population — and it also accounts for half of all childhood cancer cases globally. some of the brightest minds in the medical community have been meeting for a summit here in singapore to escalate their so—called war on cancer. 400,000 children and adolescents develop cancer each year, but only half of these cases are diagnosed. around 80% live in low—to—middle income countries — many of them here in asia. the goal is to cure 60% of children with the six most common cancers by 2030. it's estimated this will save the lives of about1 million children. dr carlos rodriguez—galindo is the director of stjude global — which campaigns for countries to improve their services for children with cancer. he's been taking part in that summit, and spoke to us yesterday. we are facing know what we call an emergency. we take this as an urgent duty. so we, together with the who, and other partners, have articulated and other partners, have articulated a global response to really address childhood cancer and the weight needs, strengthening health systems, developing the networks, narrowing the workforce gaps, and then making sure the kids have access to technology, to drugs, and treatments. and if you take a look at the figures, asia accounts for half of all cancer cases in children. you are here in asia, what is being done by the public and the private sector to address this? and are they addressing it head on? yes, you are right. close to 50%, if not more, of our children with cancer are and asia. and the problem is only going to increase. so that is why there is an urgent need to address it as a health systems level by government and all stakeholders. china, india, most of the countries in southeast asia are already beginning to address that and so through these initiatives like the who hopefully we can accelerate this progress. right, accelerate the progress, but can you give us a certain initiative, from a particular country, that should be a model for other countries to follow was silly yes. i will give you two examples. 0n here around singapore there is a lot of efforts, sharing expertise with the region, so that is accelerating the progress around the region. another good example is china. china did not have any public initiatives to address childhood cancer 10—15 years ago, so with changes in the insurance, in the rural insurance process that china started around ten years ago, our children with leukaemia and other cancers have access to ca re, children with leukaemia and other cancers have access to care, have free access to ca re cancers have access to care, have free access to care completely subsidised, and we have seen an increment in the survival rates from less tha n increment in the survival rates from less than 20% to close to 80% or 90% in less than a decade. so having these initiatives co—ordinated around government, all stakeholders, make a huge difference. but generally how far i'll be in terms of research and medication in eradicating this disease? we are still far from it. so eradicating this disease? we are still farfrom it. so right now we see around, there are around 400,000 children who develop cancer around the world, but only half of them get diagnosed. it was still need to strengthen the system so all kids have access to get and then start improving. so probably right now the overall cu re rate improving. so probably right now the overall cure rate is that less than 30% around the world, so we have a long way to go. the world is seeing record rises in sea levels — and devastating floods, storms, heatwaves and wildfires. this is according to the un state of the climate report. it picks out extreme weather events in australia, japan, and the philippines, which it says are linked to global warming. published by the world meteorologicalorganisation, it looks back on the past 12 months and states that key indicators of climate change are continuing to grow. according to he report, 2018 was the fourth warmest year on record making, 2015—2018 the four warmest years recorded. a new record high in co2 emissions happened in 2018, with greenhouse gas concentrations driving global temperatures to increasingly dangerous levels. it says 0cean heat content is at a record high and sea level rises are accelerating, growing 3.7mm higher on average in 2018 than 2017, with melting ice from the ice sheets the main cause of the increase. average global temperature have now reached approximately one degree celsius above pre—industrial levels. this means the planet is not on track to meet climate change 00:22:24,653 -->
