we could see showers for parts of east anglia and the south—east. generally the east will have more sunshine, the further north will have more clout with the odd rain or drizzle, but the temperatures are up by a degree or so. that will not last long. on wednesday southern areas will start off clout and murky and this band of rain will work its way southwards and eastwards. behind it, brighter skies, but blustery winds and showers and a colder feel returning from the north and that sets us up for the end of the week. that band of rain is associated with a cold front pushing its way south—east. behind that it turns colder and the wins come down from the north and that will always bring something of a chill. notice the blue colours here. but a return to something quite bright. lots of sunshine on thursday. some showers, especially around the coast, wintry over high ground and possibly in lower levels in the far north of scotland. but look at those maximum temperatures. it is a cold into the week and as we get into friday potentially an unsettled end

amazingly, the middle east is not in the headlines. i don't quote -- i don't know whether you have noticed that but it is not. i have noticed that. it is not, and that is because the united states focuses elsewhere. our partners in the region recognize if they want to keep us in support of them, they need to step up and act responsibly. iran, of course, is the big exception, the revolutionary power, and it has to be contained and deterred, but it has to be done by developing a balance that is maintained by israel and the sunni-arab states, all of whom have an interest in the status quo, all of them threatened by iran. the united states has to play in --an active role in that because there is more than just -- there is nonproliferation. there is potential for a nuclear arms raised -- race that could disrupt the effort to deter stable order. that is why it is important iran becomes an exception that the united states has to take. some options will involve the local players, with israel acting to contain iran and syria or supporting iran'
