been suggested? a lot of it depends on donald trump. in the past, he has not taken kindly to criticism, particularly from people who were his allies or supporters. then again, this is an opportunity for him to distance himself a bit from trump, not only to keep his reputation intact, he will have decades worth of time to issue laws and decisions and opinions on laws, but also it could make him look better in the eyes of democrats because of fears willing to stand up to donald trump and show his independence, a few of them may come round to supporting him because the last thing they want is a donald trump nominee on the court who supports donald trump s priorities. thank you very much. an australian man has survived after spending hours struggling to keep his nose above water, after his digger toppled into a dam. daniel miller had been using the excavator at his remote farm north of sydney, when the rim gave way, and he was pinned down by the three tonne machine. he said he ad
wales take on early lead in the six nations. good afternoon and welcome to bbc news. president trump says he may bring forward a new immigration executive order to enforce america s homeland security. but there s still no clarity on what he s planning. the administration will continue to argue for the temporary ban on migrants from seven countries that s been blocked by federaljudges. earlier i spoke to dr larry sabato, professor of politics at the university of virginia, and asked whether he expected the president to introduce a new executive order. that appears to be the route the trump administration has chosen. they may still appeal the earlier court decisions to the supreme court. but i think they re more likely to issue a new executive order. and if they do that, how different will it have to be from the first order to avoid legal challenges? it must be substantially different. it will have to be much more carefully and narrowly tailored than the first one. even that ma

with guns and feeling quite horrified and realising we grew up in different circumstances. circumstances have changed. this does seem to be a compromise of sorts, at least that we are not going down the full firearms route, a taser is not a nice thing to be on the receiving end of, but the fatalities that we have experienced in the us on both sides. heavily armed cops on every in the us on both sides. heavily armed cops on every corner. in the us on both sides. heavily armed cops on every corner. the baftas, you were there this evening! i wasn t in the front row, i need to stress. we are always keen to talk to people who were there. the daily telegraph has a picture on the front page of people who are not actors are tall, but they stole the limelight on the red carpet, i think, prince william and lovely kate. it is a revelation when you are there on the sidelines and you get these a list is and their oscar winning sam baird golden globe winners, and they are so used to hoover
