about _ cancelled? he was supposed to be in that meeting around about one - cancelled? he was supposed to be in that meeting around about one hour| that meeting around about one hour ago. more than one hour ago. invited by the senate majority leader chuck schumer to address senators, closed all meeting. but he has not turned up all meeting. but he has not turned up and we understand that he may address editors in the coming days, not quite sure yet. this vote due to take place tomorrow is no agreement has been made by both parties so there is a sense that the vote may not go ahead, or it may fail. so i think the way we can probably look at it is it may be a case of mr zelensky feeling it was a point addressing senators if the vote looks like it was going to go that way. and it may be, we don't know for sure, that the vote could happen next week. so mr zelensky may appear that next week. so that has been with the sense is here in washington.— with the sense is here in washington. with the sense is here in washinuton. ~ ., , , ., washington. where does this leave the conversation _ washington. where does this leave the conversation around _ washington. where does this leave the

really blunt about it. they say that time is running out, eat is running out and that ukraine meets support otherwise it will, to quote a white house adviser, ukraine will be kneecaps if they do not get that support. president zelensky�*s chief of staff has also said that they need that aid because if they do not get it they will lose the war against russia. although there has been so much fighting it's worth remembering that the front line has remained pretty static. ukraine has not achieved some of the objectives or a lot of the objectives that it wants to. there are many lawmakers particularly republicans who support for ukraine has been feeding. more than $100 billion has been sent to ukraine and assistance since the war began and for many republicans, there is a sense of, well, we want to justify this money that has gone. we want a clear strategy, a clear plan. this package worth more than $160 billion is part of a national security package and other things are tied to it such as you mentioned there, bordersecurity are tied to it such as you mentioned there, border security policy changes and so issues like that have stormed to the funding at the moment. as i say for the democrat party certainly for president biden, this age is important, necessary and thatis this age is important, necessary and that is what president zelensky was expected to say in this address today to lawmakers. stat; with us. brian taylor, columnist at the herald newspaper in scotland, doug heye, former communications director of the republican national committee. doug, let's

because you know being l an election year? a really good. point because you know being in an election year? a really good - point because you know being in dc that this is a very liberal city, obviously, people here largely in line with president biden's view of supporting ukraine. chuck schumer said that america's national security is on the line. president biden has made the argument that what happens abroad and in places like ukraine matters to the american people. so in cities like washington, dc that is an easy narrative to sell. in other parts of america, it is not the main issue for a lot of americans. we know the foreign policy does not, is not the number one issue for people it is domestic issues. a lot of the polls certainly at the start of the war showed huge support for the war in ukraine, support for helping ukraine in the waragainst ukraine, support for helping ukraine in the war against russia. that support i think has dwindled over the last year or so. it has softened in places. but for the most part, i think president biden still has the support in helping abroad but now with the crates in the middle east, now two wars that america is helping with, helping countries with. so there is a sense from a lot of american viewers that anecdotally americans cannot do both things. at the moment, no sign of president biden changing his position on that. politics changes and then policy changes. at the moment i would say that president biden's message is, it is important to many americans, what is happening in ukraine. i will be nau:h what is happening in ukraine. i will be naughty and _ what is happening in ukraine. i will be naughty and ask _ what is happening in ukraine. i will be naughty and ask you about something you may not know about yet which is as a former correspondent people hate, however it has just come in that president biden, speaking to pull reporters off said, if donald trump was not running, i'm not sure i would be running, but we cannot let him win. i don't know if you have heard that. it looks like it is news to you as well. what you make of that will last the panel as well. �* , . , , well. it's really

biden made at the time when she was running in the race was that he was running against donald trump. he had an opportunity to run and he has tried to run for president before, but interesting that he has said that. you know there is a lot of questions being asked now about president biden's age and whether or not he should be running. if you remember, mitt romney, when he announced his retirement a couple of months ago, i asked him and he said he is retiring because he is getting to that age now and i asked, should president biden and it donald trump be running and he said, no, neithershould be running. so so many conversation about president biden's age and perhaps he is making that point in a way of trying to justify why he is running. i'm not sure. interesting that he has made the

antarctic scientists have been able to study the world's largest iceberg which appears to be around three times the size of new york city. the iceberg has been stranded in the weddell sea, stuck to the ocean floor since 1986. but last week, the british antarctic survey confirmed the iceberg was no longer stuck and was in fact drifting into an iceberg alley . well, i can speak now to dr andrew meijers — he is the polar oceans science leaderfor the british antarctic survey — hejoins me now from on board the ship in the weddell sea, just south of patagonia. you are on a ship and you have a

and now it heading out into the open ocean where it will ultimately meet its feet in several months melting into the ocean. == months melting into the ocean. -- meet its months melting into the ocean.

make them swim further which in the breeding season can lead to potential devastation in those areas. and a larger climb since it is a natural phenomenon, but we know the range of icebergs melting into the ocean is increasing dramatically and will increase significantly in the global rise of temperature in the coming century. you talk about this iceberg alley. how many iceberg alley are there around the world and where are they? there will be another around the gold city so a bit further to the west of where we presently are anywhere you have ice shelves around antarctica contentedly working ice off and then they move away from those areas and spit them out into warmer water for the ultimately melt so one in weddell sea is probably the most famous but certainly more elsewhere

two stories met. margaret thatcher and keir starmer the labour leader was coming upon her and the telegraph praising her drive and vigour but also he was making the point that he was not praising her policies, but said that he had to help free the uk's stupor and set loose the natural entrepreneurism. there keir starmer with the leader of the party in scotland, not too happy with this. i understand keir starmer what was he trying to do that, trying to appeal to tory voters in england and something that they are fighting a different battle, trying to contest the snp as the principal opponent. praising margaret thatcher even weekly in a throwaway line does not really work in scotland. so as it was said today, that margaret thatcher destroyed clarice across scotland and decimated scotland so in a way you have a pre—gate about thatcher but also about history and contemporary politics. about the need to present a different agenda for the local party north and south of the border and is not the first dispute that has been between mr keir starmer and they get on the seats extremely well on the same element and sector of the party, but this causes a problem when you have different politics north and south of the border.— of the border. interesting stuff. i will brina of the border. interesting stuff. i will bring doug — of the border. interesting stuff. i will bring

heartbreak. england and by the same virtue team gb will not be at next years olympic games and it all happened in the most dramatic of ways. england needed to beat scotland by three more goals than the netherlands in their match against belgium to maintain their chances of grabbing a place at paris 2024. sarina wiegman's side doing everything right with a 6—0 victory but the dutch scored two goals in added time to win 4—0 and top the group on goal difference. england controlled the match hampden park from the start. alex greenwood put them ahead before laurenjames struck twice to make it 3—0 with 39 minutes on the clock. beth mead and fran kirby and lucy bronze with the last goal at the death. what looked to have sent england through to the finals the celebrations shortlived as the news of the goals in holland made their way to scotland. it means the european champions and world cup runners up will not feature in paris next year. but as you can see, the result from tilburg, the netherlands dramtically beating belgium 4—0, with two goals coming in stoppage time. so this is how close england came to continuing team gb's 0lympic dream. equal on points but its the dutch who go to the nations league final and a chance to book their place at paris 2024. already certain to be relegated from league a, wales put in a spirited performance against european heavyweights germany to draw 0—0 in swansea. wales had lost all five of their other games but rachel rowe came close to scoring in the first half against the two—time world champion. it remained goalless; germany finish top of the group after iceland beat denmark. northern ireland will face a relegation play—off against a league c team in february. that after they were thumped 6—1 by the republic of ireland in their league b match the republic were 2—0 up at the break in belfast with goals from lucy quinn here and heather payne. all their goals came from different players with katie mccabe scoring the pick of the bunch in the 6—1 rout. the republic have a hundred % record having won all 6 of their games. northern ireland finish third in the group. luton have been involved in an incredible game at home to table toppers arsenal. martinelli opened the scoring for the gunners, quickly cancelled out by 0sho. jesus added a second for the visitors just after half time, before adebayo and barkley gave the home side the lead for the first time. 15 minutes on the clock currently three all with arsenal looking to get further at the top of the premier league. meanwhile burnley have come crashing back to earth after they 5—0 victory over sheffield united at the weekend. they remain in the bottom three losing 1—0 at wolves earlier. south koreas hwang hee chan with the only goal of the game before half time. gary 0'niells side are now up to 12th in the table, with their first win in three games. manchester united manager erik ten hag says his squad are "together" dimissing suggestions he has a split dressing room. united are seventh in the premier league and bottom of their champions league group. adding to the mix. the club took the unusual step of excluding four media organisations from their scheduled news conference on tuesday after reacting furiously to reports up to half of the squad were either unhappy with ten hag, or his training and tactics. they should come to us first and not go around our back. printing articles, that is not the right thing. i think we have another relationship and they can give that to us beforehand. we have a normal and a professional discussion and debate about it. there are always, in every team, players who are less playing, less happy, but this is no different as normal. we've had the first premier league sacking of the season with strugglers sheffield united dismissing paul heckingbottom and immediately replacing him with theirformer manager chris wilder. united are bottom of the table and four points from safety after losing 11 of their opening 14 games. wilder returns to the role he left after almost five years in march 2021. some of the best situation and we are playing liverpool first came up so thank you very much for the fixture list, but listen, 30,000 under the lights against arguably one of the best teams in europe. it one of the best teams in europe. lit is a tough start but one that we can have a go at and i think that will be the attitude for me and the players. we are up against it. everyone in the world. you guys, every pendant that wants to make an opinion, every supporterwill every pendant that wants to make an opinion, every supporter will be done and dusted so we have always had that on the uptake, that mentality. we've had it right the way through. and that's all the sport for now. hello. skies are going to be clearing across much of the country through the evening and overnight, and that's going to lead to a widespread frost. also fog forming, particularly across more southern parts of the uk. now, let me show you the satellite picture from earlier on. it really was quite a cloudy day across the bulk of england and wales — drizzly, too. but in the north—west, we had clearer skies and it's been quite a cold day. and this is where the temperatures will be lowest overnight. now, the winds will fall light as well right across the uk, and that's going to help the fog to form. and we're thinking around parts of the midlands into wales, central, southern england and into the south—east as well — and really quite dense in places. now, the temperatures will be widely below freezing, even in bigger towns and cities, perhaps as low as —7 or —10 in the sheltered glens, but already somewhat milder in the far west of the uk. and that's in advance of this weather front. you can see the southerly winds. but the fog ahead of it and the windless weather will mean, well, that fog will stick around into the afternoon in one or two locations, and where it does, it really will be quite a raw day. so, in some spots, temperatures on wednesday during the afternoon could be barely above freezing. but i think that's not going to be the case for most of us. for many of us, it will be a bright, if not sunny day, but a really chilly one. so, 4 degrees in edinburgh, newcastle, around 6 in norwich. but out towards the west, that weather front is advancing. southerly winds, so a milder direction. wind and rain will spread across the uk during the course of wednesday night and into thursday. ahead of it, temporarily, there could be some wintry weather across the pennines and the scottish hills and mountains. and then, on thursday, it's a wet day. at least a spell of rain on the way for many of us before it turns a little bit clearer later in the day out towards the west. and you can see those temperatures rising — 13 in plymouth, about 6 or 7 across the east and the north—east, and that pattern continues into friday and the weekend. we have a whole succession of low pressures and weather fronts coming our way. so, basically, it's what we call a westerly regime — so fronts coming out of the west, bringing much milder conditions. and here's the outlook. from thursday onwards and even into next week, you can see double figures. it's been below average for quite some time. now it's going to be somewhat above average. bye— bye. today at ten... israeli investigators have compiled
