hello and welcome to 100 days. mexico says it will not accept new us plans to send millions of illegal immigrants back across the border. and they will not hesitate to approach the united nations to defend immigrants, says the foreign minister of mexico. the strong words come as the us head of homeland security and the secretary of state head to mexico to discuss the immigration crackdown. the white house will scrap guidelines that say transgender students should be allowed to use bathrooms which match their chosen gender identity. the british is bomber released from guantanamo bay and then rewarded. has president trump been vindicated? also..."last night in sweden"... ..the president was ridiculed, but now a riot in a suburb of stockholm perhaps suggests that there are problems with immigration in sweden. grass roots opposition or "professional protestors"? republican congressmen return to angry demonstrations outside their local town halls.

i'm katty kay in washington — christian fraser's in london. mexico's foreign minister luis videgaray has said that his country will not accept new "unilateral" us immigration proposals, and will not hesitate in approaching the united nations to defend immigrants. he went on to say that the new us proposals would be the main point of discussion for upcoming meetings, which will take place between mexican officials, us secretary of state rex tillerson and department of homeland security secretaryjohn kelly. white house press secretary sean spicer spoke of a positive relation between the governments ahead of that visit. i would argue that we have a very healthy and robust relationship with the mexican government and mexican officials. and i think they would echo that same sentiment. president nieto has

echoed that as well. but i think the relationship with mexico is phenomenal right now and i think there is an unbelievable and robust dialogue between our two nations. our north america editor, jon sopel is here. phenomenal, i'm not sure about is how mexico would describe it. well the twitter exchange roughly went president trump, you are paying for the wall, president nieto, we are not. that was basically the diplomacy that went on between mexico and the us. it is not phenomenal. donald trump is sending his best men to mexico city to try to get some kind of a deal. listen to get some kind of a deal. listen to what the mexican foreign minister said, the government of mexico and mexican people do not have to accept provisions that one government unilaterally wants to impose and we will not accept it. there is no reason why we should. a phenomenally good relationship! iwould

reason why we should. a phenomenally good relationship! i would like to see one hitting the rocks. it will bea see one hitting the rocks. it will be a big issue for mexico because they are talking about deporting millions of people and they want to send back not only the mexicans but non—mexicans as well. send back not only the mexicans but non-mexicans as well. and there is the question of, mexico saying why should we accept people from central america coming into our countryjust because you are deporting them from your country. i think it shows that donald trump is undoubtedly following through on his election campaign and he has a mandate but the problem is you need multilateral discussion on such things and it seems at the moment for all that there are people being sent to mexico to smooth things over you get the impression that both sides are shouting at each other instead of figuring out a way that could meet the concerns of donald trump over illegal immigrants with mexican sensibilities saying we cannotjust be expected to take all these people

back unilaterally. as we've been discussing, the chief of homeland security and the secretary of state are both heading south but there is so much ill will toward the trump administration in mexico right now that it doesn't look like it's going to be a particularly easy trip. our correspondent james cook reports from texas where many migrants from central america cross the border into the united states. it's rodeo season deep in the heart of texas. this is a state with a proud heritage and tough people. texans will tell you they are god—fearing, cattle rearing, straight talking folk. inside this arena it is strictly apolitical. outside, they do not mince their words. what do you think of the idea of a wall? perfect. why is that? wall it up. we don't need the criminals in here. wall it up. the wall will probably never happen.

just because of geography. that simple. there's definitely some security measures that might be put in place that will hopefully help alleviate some of the illegal immigrants. but i agree with him, you know, we need immigration. most of the time they need water but you do see some carrying fully automatic weapons, and you betterjust keep on going. and some parts of the frontier are easier to cross the others. i'm sitting here on the very edge of the united states, that is mexico just over there. you could be across in a couple of minutes. and apart from the river, this wire is the only physical barrier. separating these two countries. but ranchers worry about a barrier slicing through their fertile fields and one republican congressman says that a wall would be the most expensive and least effective way to secure the border. and across that divide every week come thousands of families for whom this is a moment of pure joy. welcome to america.

this girl is three years old. she has been on the road from honduras for 13 perilous days with her mother and brother. like everyone arriving here today, the family say violence and poverty forced them to flee. it was hard because when you are an adult you understand. but babies get scared and they cry. there are parts of the forest where you walk in the dark. and when the police came, my little girl knew she had to hide and stay quiet. the mass here has a latin american rhythm. and the catholic church is making the moral case for immigration reform. but this bishop says a secure border with mexico depends on solving problems elsewhere in honduras, guatemala, and el salvador. people have a right to live in conditions in their own country where they are safe and secure

and can provide for their children. and if they do not have those conditions, there is something seriously wrong. the americas are connected and sometimes we do not always realise how profoundly. these families have made it and are now applying for asylum. but there may soon be another physical barrier to the fulfilment of the american dream. well we've already heard comments in the programme from the current foreign minister of mexico. let's get reaction now from a former holder of that post — jorge castaneda joins us live now from mexico city. there will be many people coming back across europe border, how will you fight deportations to mexico? the way i think we should fight those deportations is in the united states. in the us law—enforcement

and justice system which is a very transparent, open and fair system in general. and where there are a lot of courses that can be used to fight these deportations, to fight the absence of due process which is what these new guidelines signed yesterday by general kelly seemed to indicate. and where a series of important human rights considerations, for example not dividing families, parents who have american citizens ship, children etc, are taken into account. we should fight these tours thumbnail, fight them with lawyers, with money, with lobbies, everything we can because firstly these people have a right to be in the united states evenif right to be in the united states even if they entered without papers. they have since then sprung roots in the united states and that should be taken into the united states and that should be ta ken into account. the united states and that should be taken into account. the money you're talking about may come from the mexican government. so would the

idea being to launch as many court cases as you can and to jam up the american court system? absolutely, thatis american court system? absolutely, that is what i think we should do, as many lawsuits and also as many forms of legal jamming the as many lawsuits and also as many forms of legaljamming the system. for example forcing the americans to prove that the people they want to send to mexico are mexicans. chan spread the burden of proof to them. the americans would have to prove that the person they are deporting isa that the person they are deporting is a mexican national and if they cannot we will not let him in. and so on and so forth. there are a lot of legal avenues that could be explored both on deportations, on the wall itself and on the raids and round—ups taking place in the united states. i thought one of the front pages of a newspaper in mexico today said donald trump had declared war on the undocumented. if this is war, how else can you retaliate from the

mexican side within mexico, are you for example suggesting mexico could withhold intelligence on drug cartels or crime cartels that might be spreading into the us? intelligence on those but also reduce our security cooperation which has been exemplary since 2001. 0n issues such as terrorism and other forms, other 0n issues such as terrorism and otherforms, other problems 0n issues such as terrorism and other forms, other problems and threats to the united states security as well as stop doing the dirty work of the americans for them on the southern border and try to seal it off from honduras and guatemala, who flee the violets in those countries. 0nly guatemala, who flee the violets in those countries. only to want to go to the united states. we have been now stopping them for two years and there's no reason why we should continue to do that. we have a lot of negotiating chips and obviously there are dangers in this. the united states supplies more or less half of the natural gas that is consumed in mexico every day. the

gas lines, the pipelines come from texas and other areas of the united states was up the president of the united states has the legal authority to stop exports of natural gas to mexico. that is a real threat to mexico, absolutely. he may even have used it in private, we do not know. the fact is this is escalating every day. and at some point mexico will have to put its foot down. thank you very much. sounds like the war that is escalating faster than either side might be planning for. let's get the thoughts again of brad blakeman — a republican strategist and former senior white house advisor to george w bush. what did you make of our previous guest, the idea that if the americans start to send back

millions of immigrants, some of whom are not even mexican, into mexico, the mexicans could retaliate and imagine what might continue in particular is the idea of retardation with drug cartels and intelligence surrounding them. retardation with drug cartels and intelligence surrounding themm retardation with drug cartels and intelligence surrounding them. it is amazing the brazen way a former mexican official basically threatens the us that they do not even want to ta ke the us that they do not even want to take back their own citizens or as he told you, those who have come through his country to enter the united states. what kind of neighbour is that bill allows not only their own people to flee so they're not a burden on their country but facilitates others, in committing crimes here in the united states. that is not a good neighbour. you may not like it but it could end up as he suggested being a problem for the us. i want to ask about one of the things that comes up to ask about one of the things that comes up in these new guidelines from the department of homeland security, a question of town, the guidelines saying immigrants routinely victimise americans. as

you know i'm sure that is not actually the case and there is a lower crime rate in fact amongst immigrants in this country than amongst americans. here is the problem. they have already committed a crime by being in our country illegally. we have a right to provide for our citizens first and foremost. but the president talks about america first we should not be ashamed of that. we are a welcoming country, we welcome millions of people into our country but you've got to come in the right way. i do not think your country would permit the kind of infiltration of illegal aliens and nor should our country. where a sovereign country, will respect the rights of mexico and they should respect us as well. if they should respect us as well. if they cannot provide further people then they should not come to the united states and expect us to provide for their people. but america has been complicit in this kind of immigration. we have open borders, we provided work and that is why there must be a compassionate way to deal with the illegals that are here. whether it be a pathway to

citizenship, work permits, there's no question that we have some vulnerability and liability in this situation. so so—called herds must prevail but with nothing to be ashamed of in securing our border and making sure we provide for our citizens first. we should just point out that president 0bama deported 2.5 million people. more than any other us president in the 20th century. so he had a record on deporting people. butjust to pick up deporting people. butjust to pick up one issue from that memo, it says in future agents will be able to detain anyone even if there is a cause to believe that that person is in violation of the immigration laws. this is the point i want to put to you, that will make policing a lot more difficult. people will go underground, they will be afraid to come forward with information and police forces in inner cities might lose a crucial source of intelligence. we also have another

problem, sanctuary cities. we have mayors and governors in states providing sanctuary to illegals and who refused to call for it with federal officials regarding federal law. they must also be dealt with. but there's a silver lining, if we start the crackdown and the president delivered to a wave of his people to come out of the shadows and give them a relief either by work permits or a pathway to citizenship, that could go a long way for people to come out of the shadows. but right now we must secure the border and crackdown on illegal aliens who are in our country and providing crimes against our citizens. thank you very much. that is a good point that this was playing well for the president in the polls. many people in favour of tackling crimes in the cities and many will think the president is

doing the right thing. consistently been tougher on border security is something the majority of americans to write. i think the question will be does he really want 11 million people to be deported because if they take the criteria as being that anyone in the country who is there illegally, presumably they want all of those 11 million people to go. how would americans respond to that if we suddenly had mass deportations i wonder if there would not be some unease about whether that really reflected what the country like. now there is a headline about bathrooms and it featured in the press conference today at the white house. the trump administration is going to revoke the federal guideline forcing public schools to let transgendered children whose bathrooms that use bathrooms and locker room matching their chosen identity. why is that now a big issue? i knew you would love this. so the number of

transgender children is not clear, we do not know how many people it might affect in public schools. it isa might affect in public schools. it is a big political issue and it was during the course of the election campaign. arguably for democrats who made transgender bathrooms in public schools, something president 0bama put guidelines in place for, a big issue. a lot of working—class and democratic voters potentially said hold on, the democrats are talking about tra nsgender bathrooms hold on, the democrats are talking about transgender bathrooms and i'm concerned about my job. about transgender bathrooms and i'm concerned about myjob. i think it lost them significant support in some of those key rust belt states and certainly lost them north carolina. it had one of his bafta laws in place. a big political issue. -- bathroom laws. you are saying the democrats lost sight of what was really important. it lost them support because it showed them to be out of touch with working—class voters and their concerns. they were focused on

identity politics and not the issues ofjobs and the economy. identity politics and not the issues of jobs and the economy. the politics and economics of bathrooms! the white house says it will soon publish a new travel order to replace the one that was set aside by the appeals court in san francisco. the key parts of that original 0rder suspended travel from seven predominantly muslim countries. it is expected the new draft will make an exception for green card holders and dual citizens. it is said to tighter and more streamlined than the original order — so will it cause similar global outrage? before we talk further, let's remind you how we got to this point. 0ur president doesn't get it. this is wrong, and we are going to fight it. this is what america looks like.

we're going to have a very, very strict ban and we're going to have extreme vetting, which we should have had in this country for many years. this executive order... ..was mean—spirited and un—american. this is not, i repeat not, a ban on muslims. the judge's decision, effective now, puts a halt to president trump's unconstitutional and unlawful executive order. we will be doing something very rapidly having to do with additional

security for our country. you will be seeing that sometime next week. in addition we will continue to go through the court process and ultimately i have no doubt we will win that particular case. well christian the one thing we know is that the world is watching closely what happens here in washington — and the immigration ban only increased that attention. former democratic congresswoman — now president of the woodrow wilson center is here. what you think the impact of this immigration ban has been as regards the united states and its standing amongst its allies? well the band will be replaced by something

different imminently, some pieces of that have already been produced. but i think the reaction worldwide is somewhat confused. many people thought it was harsh and certainly the process of explaining it and rolling it out was confused. people we re rolling it out was confused. people were in transit and they were held backin were in transit and they were held back in various airports, people had a green card, at least initially they were not deemed to be valid travel documents and so forth. and soi travel documents and so forth. and so i think most people would agree, maybe not a few in the white house, that the process was terrible. and the relevant secretaries were not consulted. i think reaction worldwide to many of the trump activities is confused. i was in munich at the security conference and there were 30 heads of state there and 75 defence ministers. and those from europe and certainly are very confused about whether president trump will support the european union or despite the promises of the vice president, will

support nato. i was going to ask about that, to me watching that munich security conference it seemed to mea munich security conference it seemed to me a string of american officials from the trump administration made the right noises for europeans, said the right noises for europeans, said the right noises for europeans, said the right things about nato and european union. you spoke to european union. you spoke to european allies, do they trust that those people, those representatives, actually reflect the positions of the president. vice president mike pence said he was speaking for the president. i've no doubt that he was speaking for the president. however he did not take questions from a very sophisticated audience and nor did the secretary of defence. everyone else who appeared there took questions including angela merkel and the foreign ministers of iran and russia and elsewhere. they all did iran and russia and elsewhere. they alldid and iran and russia and elsewhere. they all did and that left the impression that maybe the trump administration was not prepared to go to the second

level. at any rate i think the bottom line was there waiting to hear from bottom line was there waiting to hearfrom president bottom line was there waiting to hear from president trump bottom line was there waiting to hearfrom president trump presley. they see is twitter messages as being out of sync with some state m e nts being out of sync with some statements from his own cabinet and they're worried that he may have a very, maybe marching to a different beat and he is driving all of this ultimately, driving this foreign policy and not the government which has very few confirmed people in it and people who take rex tillerson, was not even in washington for official state visit for canada and israel. i was going to ask you about rex tillerson because he is going to mexico tomorrow and he will be very much in full view. but there is a feeling that there are others taking away parts of his brief, jared kushner, the son—in—law of the present looking after the israel brief. and then you know we have

president trump's lawyer coming to the white house with a potential deal on ukraine. it feels as if he is constantly being undermined. the ukraine deal has been denied, so i'm assuming there is no veracity to that. in terms of rex tillerson been undermined, he does not have a state department staff at the top to help him. he is an experienced businessman but not an experienced diplomat and his choice for deputy was rejected after meeting with president trump. it is hard to do a hugejob like that president trump. it is hard to do a huge job like that basically solo. so he gets high marks, the wilson centre knows him well and we certainly respect his business service. but he has an uphill climb as do others. the 0bama white house in venice was a pretty top—down white house as well. but again the cabinet departments were fully staffed and the president's style

totally different from the style of this president. thank you very much. fascinating to think how much allies are watching what is happening here in the us and almost all of them confused about what the white house really wa nts. confused about what the white house really wants. it is an issue. you have the vice president and james matters almost contradicting what the president said during the campaign. of course that is what europe —— europe and nato want to hear. you're watching 100 days from bbc news. still to come for viewers on the bbc news channel and bbc world news — foe turned friend — the campaign of french presidential candidate emmanuel macron gets a boost from an unlikely corner. francois bayrou says he's doing it to stop what he called ‘the failure of france' — that's still to come on 100 days, from bbc news. we have some stormy weather on the

way. doris bearing down on the uk and it will strike tomorrow morning. before that happens we also have a period of snow affecting parts of scotla nd period of snow affecting parts of scotland through the course of tonight. into the early hours of the morning and certainly the southern uplands have an amber warning in force and still through the central lowla nds force and still through the central lowlands as well. the real story later on will be the wind from storm doris, slamming into north—western parts of england. north wales as well another warning from the met office. in more detail now, gusts of up office. in more detail now, gusts of up to 80 miles an hour in places, inland as well, very strong and damaging winds moving through the midland into east anglia and further south also feeling the effects of the storm. there could be some overturned vehicles and some structural damage in places by the time we are finished with this storm. stay tuned to your forecasts

and take care. welcome back to 100 days. a reminder of our top story. mexico says it will not accept president trump's plans to send millions of illegal immigrants back across the border. the former mexican foreign minister told us his country intends to fight back. the fact is this is escalating every day and at some point mexico's going to have to put its foot down. coming up — republican congressmen return to angry demonstrations at their local town halls — but the white house calls the crowds "professional protesters." this is 100 days with me christian fraser in london — katty kay's in washington. you might remember on monday we were talking about president trump's weekend rally in florida and his vague but — pointed — critique of sweden's immigration policy. you look at what is happening last

night in sweden, sweden! who would believe this? sweden! they took in large numbers, having problems like they never thought possible. in fact nothing happened on the friday night. and soon the confusion gave way to ridicule. mr trump responded — he was referring he said to a fox news report about rising crime in sweden. but then something did happen on monday night. riots broke out — in rinkeby, a predominantly immigrant suburb of stockholm. ten cars were set on fire, shop fronts were smashed and police fired warning shots to disperse an angry crowd. so is the president right to highlight problems that sweden has had with immigration? we can speak to ylva johansson, swedish ministerfor employment and integration. i have never heard of a ministerfor

integration, is that specific to sweden? i don't know actually! let me read the some of the comments i read this morning. this is from an appointed member of a local board in rinkeby where the riots were and he says, the situation in rinkeby is not good, the police don't have control over the area. if you said you had a problem with integration in sweden, you would be called a racist. that is not true. of course, there are problems with integration but you have to realise, of course, we are a society on earth, we're not paradise. people commit crimes. we have that problem. when we compare sweden to other countries, we have a low level of crime. we have a low level of violence and deftly violence. we have quite a strong society and we are quite well equipped to handle all sorts of challenges we are facing. last year,

sweden, 9.5 million people, granted residency to 150,000 immigrants in one year. that is a lot to deal with and if you look at the polls, it is the anti—immigration party, the sweden democrats, on the rise and they could be the biggest party they say, by 2018. that would suggest a lot of people have concerns. say, by 2018. that would suggest a lot of people have concernslj say, by 2018. that would suggest a lot of people have concerns. i don't think the racist party will be that big and they are not rising in polls any more. of course, having these are so many refugees in a short time, of course that causes some problems. we have huge housing problems, we have problems with teachers, not enough teachers in schools and of course challenges to help people to learn swedish coming to the labour market, but cannot see a connection between crimes and immigration. we have been an

immigration. we have been an immigration country for 20 years. we have taken a lot of immigrants to sweden and that the same time, the crime level has gone down. so we can't see that connection. but those newcomers coming to my country, they are human beings, as we are who already live here, and some people commit crimes and that is a problem but most people do not and that is the same for us who live here and those newcomers. i wanted to put to use something nigel farage, the former leader of the uk independence party has said about sweden, calling stockholm the rape capital of europe, possibly even of the world. his implication is that actually with an influx of immigrants and particularly a lot of young male immigrants, the crime rate particularly around sexual crimes has risen in the capital. he does

not really know what he's talking about. when we make service about... if any woman has been... if there has been a rape towards her or sexual harassment, we can see the level is going down and down and down. but we encourage women to actually report to the police and we also broaden the scope of what we define as a rape, because we would like every woman, because every rape is one rape too many. we encourage every woman to report to the police so we have a high level of reporting to the police and it is good they report and of course, it is bad if rape is committed, but when we make service at the actual level of rapes is not high in sweden. service at the actual level of rapes is not high in swedenlj service at the actual level of rapes is not high in sweden. i realise you are not the foreign minister but i wa nt to are not the foreign minister but i want to ask you a question of diplomacy. i surprised where you buy the comments of donald trump over the comments of donald trump over the weekend and by the perception at

least that he was picking a rather curiouser row with somebody who is an ally of the united states?” curiouser row with somebody who is an ally of the united states? i was very surprised and i think also all swedes were. does it and you? why do you think you did it? you must ask him. the president of course can say whatever he wants. i was very surprised and started to make a lot of jokes surprised and started to make a lot ofjokes here in sweden about that speech. it gave rise to quite a lot on twitter. i have to say, i did enjoy reading some of the twitter entries over the last few days but there we are. minister, thank you for being with us. it was around about this time yesterday that we were talking about the french presidential candidate, emmanuel macron — he was campaigning here in london, trying to secure the votes of 200,000 expats who call the city home. today, mr macron got a welcome boost from a potential rival — this man, veteran campaigner

francois bayrou, who's offered to back him, rather than stand against him. i know the french have a history of voting tactically, they did it in 2015 when they thought marine le pen was going to do well and parties coalesced against her. how much is this going to help macron, what does francois bayrou normally poll? he got 9% in the last election which was disappointing to him but that was disappointing to him but that was about 3 million votes. this could come down in the first round toa could come down in the first round to a couple of percentage points so it could be quite significant. it increases this feel—good factor around emmanuel macron at the moment. that someone like francois bayrou, the perennial third man in french politics for a long time, he has said he is a good thing and something he wants to get behind. then compare that with what is

happening in the party that macron left, the socialist party, there could be a similar alliance between the centre and the hard left. a comment tonight, says, i would the centre and the hard left. a comment tonight, says, iwould not time itself to the socialists, it would be like hanging myself to a hearse. you can see this is good for macron. you will have to fight with me for the right to go and cover those french elections because i can see you are angling for it right now! that is the advantage of being in london of course! thereof flights from washington and paris, i can tell you! britain's supreme court has upheld the government's right to set a minimum wage that its citizens must earn before bringing a foreign husband or wife into the country. a rule adopted five years ago requires people to be earning more than $23,000 before their spouses canjoin them. the court ruled that the measures don't breach

human rights legislation. turkey's president tayyip erdogan could meet us president donald trump sooner than expected. the two leaders were already likely to meet on the sidelines of a nato summit in may — but a presidential spokesman in ankara said on wednesday that efforts were being made for both men to meet before then. a woman has been appointed as britain's most senior police officer. cressida dick becomes the first female to head the metropolitan police in london in its 200—year history. her selection is not without controversy — in 2005 she was the commander in charge of the operation in which the innocent brazilian — jean charles de menezes — was shot dead in london. the us space agency nasa has announced the discovery of seven ea rth—sized exo—planets. they‘ re called exo—planets because they orbit stars other than our sun. the planets are circling an "ultracool" dwarf star called trappist 0ne, located about 39 light years away. scientists believe these newly

discovered worlds could hold life. i think ithinki i think i have a headache just thinking about that, how many light yea rs ? thinking about that, how many light years? how many minutes is that? the streets of washington dc are pretty empty this week because senators and congressmen have returned home to take questions from their constituents. some of them are getting a rather frosty welcome. this was the scene that greeted senate majority leader mitch mcconnell in kentucky. the protest was one of many across the country, at town hall events in republican—held districts. the demonstrators confronted lawmakers about issues ranging from the president's immigration plans to his tax returns. and the rallies riled mr trump. he wrote — "the so—called angry crowds in home districts of some republicans are actually, in numerous cases, planned out by liberal activists. sad!" it appears that has made a return to

twitter lexicon. i thought that under the us constitution, everyone had every right to exercise their right to assemble. so why have they been allowed to protest outside town halls ? been allowed to protest outside town halls? —— why are they not allowed? there is nothing to stop them. the indication from mr trump was that these people were stopping some sort of organised protest. a lot of what these people complained about is to do with 0bamacare and the replacement to 0bamacare. the white house, remember, said they would repeal and replace 0bamacare on day one. that was the campaign promise of donald trump. the white house has said in the last few hours that the replacement part of the proposition will not come until the middle of march. the president's idea is that this is not organic, people coming

out of their own volition, but an organised event with left—wing agitators bussing people in? yes, and remember at the beginning of the 0bama administration in 2009, the democrats also went back to their districts, around this time of year, held town halls and faced angry crowds, equally frustrated with health care reform and didn't like what the white house was proposing. it had an impact on those democratic congressmen and women and they then come back to washington and talk to the white house and say hold on a second, our voters are not happy and we are getting all of this. so we may change the way we vote. well, coming up on the bbc news facebook page, we will be back at the same time

tomorrow. hello. this is bbc news with chris rogers. the headlines at 7.45pm — the fiance of the children's author helen bailey, has been found guilty of her murder. ian stewart dumped the body in a cesspit, in the hope of inheriting her £4 million fortune. astronomers have discovered seven ea rth—sized planets orbiting a distant star, which could potentially harbour conditions to support life. a political row has broken out over a british is fighter who was freed from guantanamo bay in 200a. he is alleged to have gone on to commit a suicide attack in iraq. let's show you the markets. astronomers have detected seven ea rth—sized planets orbiting a single star.

the researchers say that all seven could potentially support liquid water on the surface, depending on the other properties of those planets. but only three are within the conventional "habitable" zone where life is considered a possibility. in the last few hours nasa held a press conference about their findings — with one of the scientists saying the discovery meant that finding "a second earth" was "not a matter of if, but when". they have discovered other so—called planets like this before, that orbits the star in a similar position to the earth, but it is down to a few degrees difference when you are looking at the difference between life being supported or not. nasa has spent a lot of money researching space from the ground since the space shuttle was grounded and they have invested

lots of money and this is with the sole aim of trying to find life on other planets. we were hoping to bring you a clip of that press conference and we are trying to find it for you. it would be nice to see it for you. it would be nice to see it and see what they had to say. after spending all that money and time, discovering the stars. it is certainly exciting a lot of astronomers at the moment who say this really does confirm whether life can be found on another planet. it is all down to that surface water. i think we can bring you that clip now. don't you just love live television? it is great, isn't it?” am excited to announce that the nasa tea m am excited to announce that the nasa team have used our space telescope to determine there
