to pass on an england call—up. the ben white situation is very interesting. he was part of the world cup squad in qatar, but he left during the tournament and hasn't played for his country sense. he's playing so well at arsenal. they are top of the league, they conceded the least amount of goals in the premier league. theyjust got through to the quarterfinals of the champions league. he's playing the best football of his career. but he still not in this england squad. at one time, england did have a real depth full—back with kyle walker, rhys james, trent alexander armour —— trent alexander

betewen kirk and a player. he was missing from the dugout for their fa cup win over liverpool last weekend. jane dougall is here with me. the club haven't given too much detail, but we've heard from other managers who were asked about this. clearly, a very difficult time for leicester, removing willie kirk as manager. he said to be assisting the club with an internal process. there were several wsl news conferences. unsurprisingly, they were asked about it, and aston villa boss said they're dropping the duty is to players and to cross that line is unacceptable. she said it should 100% be a

independent regulation after top flyer clubs walked away from a proposed deal earlier in a the fullbore said... it's the climax to this season's six nations championship on saturday. it's in ireland's hands ahead of their match against scotland in dublin, but the scots can still pinch the title with a huge win at the aviva stadium. if ireland lose, then that could let england in ahead of their game against france in lyon, the french can still mathematically do it as well, but that would be very far—fetched. we've had more team news today, ireland are unchanged as they look to wrap up the title. history shows you that this is very hard to do back to back championships. that's what we're going after. it's one that will not relish, grab hold of —— that we will. st. patrick's weekend, in front of your own fans, it really doesn't get any better. i suppose you've got to cherish that and enjoy the whole thing and get after it together. let's head live to dublin and speak to our sports

changes after the defeat last weekend, but they haven't. coach andy farrell also said in his press conference that when people are disappointed, you tend to get a good reaction. he's named a totally unchanged staffing 15 for the match against scotland. that means calvin nash has been passed fit to play. nash has been passed fit to play. nash had to leave afterjust a few minutes at twickenham last weekend after suffering a head injury, but he is passed in assessment, so he could be —— he is available to play. scotland will be desperate to bounce back from their defeat last weekend. they've made two changes to their changes. a first six nation for stafford mcdowell. he comes in for cameron redpath while ben white retires at scran half. —— scrum—half. scotland you have to say have a pretty dreadful recent record against ireland. they have lost their last nine meetings, but will be desperate to end their six nations championship on a high. i touch on some of those permutations. it was

of the steve borthwick era. a lot wondered whether marcus just smith could start. he started the winning drop goal. steve borthwick has kept faith in george ford at fly half. marcus smith once again starts on the bench. there's only one change to the starting 15, and that is on the wing, where elliot daly comes in for emmanuel �*s elite. who reported concussion symptoms, so he is not going to

we had some welcome drier and brighter weather across parts of the south—east of england, east anglia, too. this was the picture in suffolk. i think over the next couple of days, we're still staying unsettled, though. so, through the day tomorrow, for friday, showery rain for some of us. still quite mild, particularly towards the south, slightly cooler air across the northern half of the uk. you can see the blue colours here, but the yellows and orange still with us further south and quite a few different weather fronts just drifting their way slowly eastwards. so, showery rain for this evening and tonight across much of scotland, a few showers for northern ireland, northern england, too. further south, some clearer spells, bit of a breeze blowing in later in the night. the next rash of heavy showers will work into wales, southern england as well. now, with the breeze, cloud and showers around, it's going to be a mild night — 10—11 in the south. further north, could just see a touch of frost in the most a touch of frost in the most prone spots for scotland, but i think generally, there's going to be too much cloud and those outbreaks of rain. tomorrow, even a little bit of snow over the very highest mountains. an improvement in the weather for parts of northern ireland, into wales as well, certainly compared to today, but there will be a rash of sunshine and showers just drifting eastwards across england and wales through the day. so a really hit—and—miss day — not as wet as thursday across scotland. still looking at 15 degrees down towards the south—east and east anglia, but single figures further north. now, it's through friday evening and overnight into saturday that most of the showers clear away, and under these clearer skies, it's going to be a cold night. we're likely to see a bit of frost across scotland, northern ireland and northern england. temperatures in the towns and cities here close to freezing, but in the countryside, it could be —3 or —4. so a bit of frost and some mist and fog patches here and there to start your day on saturday. then more cloud rolls in from the south—west, throwing a few blustery showers into northern ireland, perhaps wales and south—west england, whereas further north and east, you're more likely to stick with the sunnier spells for longer. so, 8—13 degrees, so a touch down perhaps on what we've seen on thursday certainly. but as we head towards the second half of the weekend, we've still got a few weather fronts with us into sunday, so a bit of rain, i think, initially for eastern areas. that should clear away fairly quickly. there'll be more showers working in from the west later in the day, but i think in between, with the southerly breeze and some sunshine — shouldn't feel too bad. and temperatures more widely across the board in those mid—teens, around 14—16 for most of us. bye— bye. live from london, this is the world today on bbc news. redefining extremism — the government here names groups that are a "cause for concern" and could face restrictions. a senior us democrat says israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, has lost his way and should call new elections. the fourth obstacle to peace is israeli prime minister benjamin minister benjamin netanyahu, who has all too frequently bowed to the demands of the extremists. at least 60 migrants are feared dead after an overloaded dinghy breaks down trying to reach europe. also coming up on the world today — elon musk�*s spacex mission is hailed a success, even though the starship rocket is lost on re—entry. welcome to the world today. i'm lewis vaughan jones. the uk government has released a new definition of extremism in order, it says, to try to stop
