good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today... just 15 minutes before it was due to expire, israel's military says the temporary truce with hamas has been extended. 16 hostages were released yesterday. one of the leading statesmen of the 20th century, henry kissinger, dies at the age of 100. the former health secretary, matt hancock, will defend his record during the pandemic when he appears before the covid inquiry today. and it's goodbye to yang guang and tian tian. today is the last chance to see the uk's only giant pandas at edinburgh zoo before they return to china. as schools clamp down on vaping,
6:01 am
the company, which makes more than half the uk's disposable vapes, says it is axing a number of sweet flavours, which have been criticised for appealing to children. it's goals galore in the champions league, as arsenal hit six to win their group. but manchester united's hopes now hang in the balance, as they throw away a 2—0 lead, again, this time, in istanbul. another widely frosty morning today. all the details later on. it's thursday the 30th of november. israel and hamas have agreed to extend their temporary truce. the israeli military said it had agreed to the pause "in light of the mediators' efforts to continue the process of releasing hostages." it's not yet clear how long
6:02 am
the ceasefire will last. last night, 16 more hostages taken captive by hamas — designated as a terrorist organisation by the uk government — were released, as were 30 palestinians. from jerusalem, 0ur middle east correspondent, hugo bachega reports. the ceasefire in gaza continues. israel and hamas have agreed to extend a temporary pause in hostilities. the news came just minutes before the deal was set to expire this morning. last night, 16 more hostages were freed by hamas, including 13 year old gali and amit, 16. in return, 30 palestinians were released from israeli jails. but the latest swap was overshadowed by a claim by hamas that the youngest hostage, ten—month—old baby kfir, his brother ariel and mother shiri, had been killed by an israeli airstrike in gaza. israel says it's a cruel claim and that it's investigating. theirfather, yarden, is still missing. israel's war cabinet
6:03 am
gathered late last night. us secretary of state antony blinken arrived in tel aviv for the third time since the war started, to discuss an extension to the truce and more aid to gaza. in the occupied west bank, violence continued. an eight—year—old boy and a teenager, aged 1a, were shot dead as the israeli army withdrew from a military operation in a refugee camp. the army said it used missiles, grenades and explosives, killing a senior commander for islamichhad. in gaza, the humanitarian crisis continues. the un says more aid needs to get in and that disease is a real threat. the ceasefire continues for another day, but palestinians wonder how long it will last. hugo bachega joins us now from jerusalem.
6:04 am
good now from jerusalem. morning to you. we were wai for good morning to you. we were waiting for this right up to the wire, went we can the news of the extension. the announcement came 20 minutes before the ceasefire was due to expire. the israeli army said the decision was taken because of the efforts to guarantee the release of more hostages being held in gaza. 145 people are still being held in gaza. 55 days after they were abducted. the next phase of these negotiations are likely to be more difficult because it is likely to include the release of israeli military personnel, the first israeli soldiers to be released since they were captured by hamas in israel last month. there was some confusion over night. hamas said it had presented a list with seven captives and also three bodies and the israelis had rejected this list for the exchange of hostages for
6:05 am
palestinian prisoners. the us secretary of state antony blinken is here and he is going to have discussions about an extension of the ceasefire. i think all of those details show how complex, how fragile this deal between israel and hamas is. for the moment, thank you very much. charlie, we have had some news of the passing of someone very significant on the international stage. absolutely right. the former us secretary of state henry kissinger has died at the age of 100. serving under presidents nixon and ford, he led america s re—engagement with communist china, and sought a thawing of relations with the soviet union. but he faced criticism for the us bombing of cambodia, which killed hundreds of thousands of people. the former health secretary, matt hancock, will defend his record during the pandemic later, when he begins giving evidence to the covid inquiry.
6:06 am
he's faced strong criticism from some of the previous witnesses, and it's emerged that the country's most senior civil servant at the time wanted mr hancock sacked. 0ur correspondent ellie price has been following the inquiry. hello. i don't know what to say. why are you here? for lots of people, he's a bloke off that reality tv show. his opponent is recruit number one, former health secretary matt hancock. in fact, he's been on two of them. but matt hancock was criticised for his appearances by some, who felt it made light of his time as health secretary and the serious decisions he made during covid. this unprecedented expansion in british testing capability is an incredible achievement. he was right at the centre of the covid storm — a health secretary in the early dark days — through lockdowns and tier systems, until he was forced to resign for breaking his own lockdown rules by having an affair with a work colleague. it ended his marriage and his career in government.
6:07 am
this inquiry has heard plenty of criticism of mr hancock. he wanted to decide who should live and die if hospitals were overwhelmed, according to the former nhs england boss. dominic cummings, borisjohnson�*s closest adviser, told the pm he had to be fired, as we heard in this text readout. you need to think through timing of binning hancock. there's no way the guy can stay. he's lied his way through this and killed people and dozens and dozens of people have seen it. and civil servants described his tendency to over promise and under—deliver. right from the start, we've tried to throw a protective ring around our care homes. it was a very bleak picture. just yesterday, the inquiry heard as early as the middle of march, officials knew symptomatic patients would have to be sent to care homes to stop the nhs from clogging up. prime minister. mr speaker, as the honourable lady knows... yesterday in the commons, the prime ministerfaced a covid inquiry of his own. asked about evidence suggesting he had said at the time, "just let them die." i didn't.
6:08 am
matt hancock has appeared before the inquiry in earlier hearings about the uk's preparedness for a pandemic. that time he solemnly apologised to victims and families. i am profoundly sorry for the impact that had. but that hasn't been enough for some campaigners, who protested outside. matt hancock owes the country answers. i think particularly bereaved families, you know, frontline health care workers, people working in care homes are really owed some answers as to why we went through what we went through. and i think we deserve to hear those answers in a proper forum rather than him trying to salvage his reputation. the last time matt hancock appeared at this inquiry, he came out fighting. he's likely to take a similar approach today, not least because he's already received so much personal criticism and is scheduled to last two days — the ultimate in reality tv. ellie price, bbc news
6:09 am
at the covid inquiry in london. world leaders are facing pressure to accelerate plans to tackle climate change at a major un summit in the united arab emirates. the host of cop 28 has been accused of undermining the talks, after documents leaked to the bbc suggested the uae planned to try to use its role to make oil and gas deals. the country insists it's focused on "meaningful climate action." britain is sending a second warship to the gulf because of the rising tensions in the middle east. the royal navy is also taking action to protect europe's undersea cables because of fears of russian aggression. the largest coalmine in the uk is set to close today, more than a year after mining there was due to end. there are concerns that the company that runs the ffos—y—fran site near merthyr tydfil could walk away from cleaning up the site, with estimated costs of between £120 million and £175 million. there could be a breakthrough today in the rmt union's long—running dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions.
6:10 am
0ur transport correspondent katy austin has this report. it's nearly a year and a half since the long—running series of strikes on the railway began. today could spell the end of rmt walkouts, for now at least. in march, maintenance workers and signallers employed by network rail accepted a deal. but thousands of other union members, who work for the companies which run the trains, have continued strikes. over the past few weeks, they've been voting on whether to accept proposals involving a 5% backdated pay rise for last year, more for the lowest paid and job security guarantees. it would lift the threat of rmt strikes until at least the spring, but it wouldn't be the end of the story. the government and the industry still want ways of working to change, arguing the railway is financially unsustainable. this deal would push that discussion into 2024. for a pay rise for this year
6:11 am
would depend on reaching agreement with individual train companies. it means that each company separately can sort out its individual needs in the way that job roles will change. and that is different across the 14 companies. the mistake was linking it all together, not only as a block of companies, but linking the terms and conditions with the pay. separating that out has meant that it can move forward very quickly and the unions seem to be accepting that change has to come. if rmt members reject the deal, more strikes could follow. there's been no such progress in the separate train drivers' dispute. their union aslef has announced a fresh wave of industrial action, starting tomorrow. katie austin, bbc news. sir eltonjohn has urged political leaders to do more to eliminate the aids epidemic, telling parliament the uk can be the first country in the world to defeat the virus. he also urged whoever wins the next general election to do more to help end aids worldwide by 2030.
6:12 am
jeremy clarkson, james may and richard hammond have filmed their last episode of the motoring show "the grand tour", after seven years on amazon prime. the trio have returned from filming in zimbabwe, with the special programme to be shown next year. those are all the main story for you. now the weather with matt. another cold day ahead, frosty at the moment. a few wintry showers. still the story remains dry for the vast part of the uk. a widespread and quite sharp frost folsom this morning went down 2—4, —5 in east anglia towards the midlands. not far off that on the outskirts of glasgow. very few avoiding a frost. the channel islands has temperature
6:13 am
seven, 8 degrees. 0utbreaks the channel islands has temperature seven, 8 degrees. outbreaks of rain through the english channel, gusty wind and snow over the moors. still showers filtering in across eastern england and scotland coming further inland than yesterday. 0ne england and scotland coming further inland than yesterday. one or two more of you will see a slight dusting of snow. many places will be dry with a day of sunny spells. towards the south of rain will continue in the english channel. gusty conditions in the south—west. across the moors we could see a fair few centimetres of snow mounting up across the highest ground. further north, throughout the afternoon, there showers continued to pepper in towards the east. some places hoping towards the east. some places hoping to see temperatures much above freezing as we go through today. with the cold air in place, as the skies remain clear overnight, just a few mist and fog patches, another cold night. the colder night to come
6:14 am
and a widespread frost to take us into tomorrow morning and the start of what will be another fairly bright day for most. back to you both. ,, , ., . families of fallen police officers have been remembering their loved ones at an event at the house of commons. it comes as bryn hughes, the father of pc nicola hughes, who was shot and killed in 2012, awaits answers from the government on whether his campaign to get a medal introduced to honour emergency service workers killed in the line of duty, will get the green light. john maguire has this report. it's just literally around the corner from here, where the two officers were gunned down as they went to that bogus call earlier on today. a policeman has been stabbed to death while attempting to make an arrest in birmingham. although from different generations, they chose the same life, the same job, the same vocation — to protect us.
6:15 am
all have given their lives while trying to keep ours safe from harm. at this special ceremony at the houses of parliament, families of fallen officers became the first to receive these brass leaves, cut from the uk police memorial at the national memorial arboretum in staffordshire. each of these leaves symbolises a life lost in the line of duty. today's presentation means a lot. the leaf cut from the fabric of the uk police memorial, inscribed with fiona and nicola's details are presented to theirfathers paul bone and bryn hughes. applause. but for bryn hughes, whose daughter nicola was murdered in 2012, it's a reminder of his ongoing fight to see formal recognition for emergency service workers killed in the line of duty. it's not worth thinking about what they went through that day. you could torture yourself... but yeah, like you say,
6:16 am
it was an ordinary day, answering a 999 call, what they probably answered two or three dozen a day, a week, something like that. and thenjust to be met with what they were met with. it's been nearly two years since bryn began his medals for heroes campaign. all the families here support him. you don't actually get anything tangible from the state, something tangible that you can pin on your chest or do whatever you like with it. it would be nice for the state to recognise the loss of the police services. the families share an experience that loved ones of frontline officers must fear every day. wpc yvonne fletcher was shot outside the libyan embassy in 1984. in the road in front of the libyan people's bureau, a group of policemen's helmets lie where they fell as the bullets flew. and with them lies the uniform cap of the policewoman who died. nearly 40 years on from her death, yvonne fletcher's sisters say
6:17 am
the time is right for the government to acknowledge those who lost their lives. other services, like the military, they have a medal. and so i think it would be... it's important to other... for the police who've fallen to be able to have a medal, because they've they've also served their communities, and i don't think they should be left out. gillian wombwell�*s husband david was shot while on duty in 1966. even now, almost 60 years on, she still has dreams about the aftermath of his death. archive: for here, - with a congregation of police and relatives was held a funeral service... she supports bryn�*s campaign, but for her, this lasting memento is a welcome acknowledgement of her husband's sacrifice. i've got something in my home now. i've got something i can show people, something i can be proud of, something i can pass on to the children. and it's been such a long time
6:18 am
waiting for this, and i'm just glad iget it... got it before i died really. because the two other colleagues, who were shot with david, you notice they haven't got a leaf because there are no remaining relatives. this was a chance to talk directly to the crime and policing minister. in october, he told bryn he supported his call for a medal. what we're asking for is, i think it's important. i'll do everything i can to drive this forward and i'm hoping we'll have something concrete to say in the very, very near future. nearly two months on, he again declined to say exactly when it may happen. i can't give too many details, but it is something which i support and i'm very confident when i find something to say in the near future about it, to honour those officers who have given their lives. within this parliament. is that a definite will happen within this parliament? i am hoping it'll happen as soon as possible. yeah.
6:19 am
in calling for medals for heroes, these families say they aren't asking a great deal — just for appreciation and recognition of the service given and the sacrifice that they and their loved ones have made. john maguire, bbc news, westminster. let's take a look at today's papers. a number of the front pages — including the daily telegraph's, feature hamas's claim that its youngest hostage, a 10—month—old baby, was killed along with his four—year—old brother and their mother in an israeli bombardment of gaza. the israeli military says it is investigating. their deaths have not been independently confirmed. the metro leads on comments by the father of molly russell, a 14—year—old who took her own live in 2017 after viewing suicide—related content on social media — a story we've followed on breakfast. six years on from her death,
6:20 am
ian russell says tech firms have not made enough progress at rolling out measures to protect children online. patients are facing a nightmare at accident and emergency departments in england, according to the daily mirror. the paper says its investigation found more than half of a&e units in england have been ranked as inadequate or needing improvement by the health watchdog. and the daily mail's splash includes a picture of a shivering julia roberts, who was at a film screening last night in central london of her new film, leave the world behind. she wore a pair of sparkling designer shoes, which the paper says looked like they were covered in icicles. a brief walk on the red carpet is what it is all about. now get ready for an exciting
6:21 am
bit of scaffolding. this is the outline of the new spire gets for notre dame. it's identical to the previous one that was ravaged by a fire in april 2019. it is amazing what has been done in such a short space of time. we like yourinput such a short space of time. we like your input on the programme. if you have pictures of your favourite scaffolding, we will put the numbers on the screen now. pictures of scaffolding. not a nice time of year to be a scaffolder. so cold. cold. i bet they wear shorts! quite a few of them probably wear shorts. not the icicle shoes. hijinks as a student, they happen, don't they? i dare say they happen, don't they? i dare say
6:22 am
they do. they certainly do. i remember some in my student days. what were they? this gentleman as a student in liverpool stole the penny lane sign. it is what students use to do but mostly they would steal traffic cones, wouldn't he? something would tell that sign has been stolen several times. this man says he was a student in liverpool. she is and has really fond memories. dan barrington, the cabinet member for transport mrs removal of street science is a criminal offence. a serious offence. given that it has got back to where it belongs after a long and winding journey, we can all
6:23 am
agree to let it be. the sign is back. it is kind of very reminiscent the time. the number of rough sleepers in england increased last year for the first time since 2017 — with many camping in tents in cities and towns. new figures out later this morning will reveal whether that trend has continued over the past few months. eleanor lawrie has been speaking to people about their experience of living on the streets. their homes and possessions destroyed. oh, my god. but within weeks, rough sleepers are back outside this london hospital. they were originally moved on due to health concerns and complaints of anti—social behaviour. anthony was arrested last time for refusing to leave. he says he's staying put. i lost myjob. i was spending a fortune on rent. the pension wasn't covering it.
6:24 am
my savings was going and this was the move. i had to make that move. i've still got my pension. i'm not paying rent. i can go to the gym, shower every day. anthony is not the only one who's been moved on. in bristol, tim spent time camping out at this pedestrian roundabout in the city centre. we're in the bear pit in bristol. it's not the nicest place in the world. i didn't choose to live here — didn't want to live here. the council has put up signs telling people to leave, but tim says the struggle to find housing has had a huge effect on his life. six months where i could have been working, could have been paying for a roof over my head. i've just ended up in a situation where i wasn't able to get a room. he says the tents are symptomatic of a wider problem. there comes a level where you can't hide homelessness and rough sleeping and brush it under the carpet. it will be visible. at times. it's been taken over by lots and lots of tents. but that's a reflection of the wider
6:25 am
problem of rough sleeping, not necessarily the people that live here. there are almost 20,000 people waiting for social rented properties in bristol. julie dempsey�*s homeless charity can't keep up with demand for tents. we actually got to the point last week where we had exhausted our supply. we couldn't get any more tents and we were turning people away. she says that mental health is the worst she's seen since founding the charity. we now work alongside a charity called hope against suicide because people are so despondent that their situation will not change. housing benefit hasn't been unfrozen. people cannot afford private rent. dave watkinson knows firsthand how bad things can get after terrible life. —— after terrible life events led to him living in a tent in his sixties. i lost my mother and my father within a year of each other and went
6:26 am
through a divorce. as it was. i left where i was living. both my sons passed away. it put me in a right state and ijust didn't care about myself. and i ended up becoming homeless. being housed by charity emeus bristol, where he now works, has given him his life back. if it hadn't have been for them, i wouldn't have been alive. that gave me my self—esteem back. a reason to get up in the morning and, you know, just a reason to live and help other people. the government has committed to end rough sleeping. it has pledged over £1 billion for councils in the three years to 2025. but for many people, the prospect of being housed remains far away. eleanor lawrie, bbc news in bristol.
6:27 am
time for the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. i'm paul murphy—kasp. crime on the tube has risen by more than 50% in a year, including a huge increase in robberies and thefts. the data from transprt for london — which takes into account all services — shows that offences were up by a third. but the underground showed an 83% rise in thefts and robberies between april and september compared to last year. tfl said it was working closely with police to address current concerns. now we've got in london more people back than any part of the country. some days, post pre—pandemic, obviously more people using it. and we're encouraging people to report crime if they've been the victims. what we don't want is people to suffer in silence. so we're saying report it to stop it. that would mean that action will be taken. last night emergency accommodation opened for rough sleepers as temperatures dipped below freezing in the capital. the severe weather emergency protocol has been activated by city hall — which requires councils to provide extra shelter for the homeless.
6:28 am
it comes as the quarterly number of rough sleepers reached a record high. police are appealing for help to find a missing girl from west london who disappeared nearly six days ago. 12—year—old santana hailstones was last seen leaving her mum's home address in ladbroke grove on saturday — and hasn't been seen since. she was wearing a red and green morocco football shirt with the number two on the back, and a dark—coloured puffa jacket. trains running between london paddington and reading continue to be disrupted this morning after a broken rail was found in west london yesterday. a defect was found in the hayes & harlington area where trains transfer from one track to another. it is the fourth damaged rail on the great western line within eight days. network rail said it "proactively" inspected all of its track and safety was its "highest priority". let's take a look at the tubes now. 0n the northern line there are minor delays southbound between edgware and camden town. and on the elizabeth line there's no service between heathrow terminals 2&3 and heathrow terminal 4 following a signal failure. all other lines are running a good service.
6:29 am
very cold out there this morning, but what about the forecast for the day ahead? here's kate. for the day ahead? good morning. a cold start this morning. temperatures below zero, so a widespread frost. there's quite a bit of cloud around for all, but it is a little thicker down towards the south. there's still the chance of a few showers moving in today should be falling as rain. through the afternoon, that cloud more restricted to the south will see some sunshine elsewhere between three and six celsius, the maximum temperature. it is a feeling chilly. now overnight tonight, dry and clear to start with. so, again, temperatures down below zero, and we could just see a little more cloud through the early hours into tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature minus three. so another frost first thing on friday. we'll see any cloud we have break up to some sunshine and a largely dry day again as we head through tomorrow. still the small chance of a shower out in the east, but most places staying dry. and temperatures tomorrow
6:30 am
between two and five celsius. it remains very cold as we head into the weekend as well. widespread frost for saturday morning and we could just see one or two wintry showers overnight saturday into sunday. that's all for now, but if you want to have a look at some rather unusual spy objects — shown to us in a room by mi6, head to our website where all will be revealed. i'm back in half an hour, but for now its back to naga and charlie. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. let's get back to one of our top stories now. and henry kissinger, who played a leading role in shaping american foreign policy under two presidents, has died at the age of 100. he won the nobel peace prize for his efforts to end the vietnam war — but his record, including the us bombing of cambodia which killed hundreds of thousands of people, led some to accuse him of being a war criminal. 0ur diplomatic correspondent, james landale, reflects on his life. and thank you for being here. to some, henry kissinger was one of the cold war�*s most influential statesmen who advised presidents
6:31 am
and prime ministers for decades. in considering the ukraine issue... to others, he was a war criminal. we call for the arrest of henry kissinger for war crimes. ..whose ruthless defense of american interests cost thousands of lives. he was born heinz kissinger in nazi germany. hisjewish family fled to america in 1938, but the young henry, as he became, returned to europe fighting with the us army. in peacetime, the soldier became a scholar at harvard university, making his name arguing that nuclear weapons could be used in conventional wars. i believe it is technically possible to conduct the resistance with a limited employment of nuclear weapons, though that is less desirable. today, i am pleased to announce the first appointment to the white house staff. it was president nixon who brought him into government, first as national security adviser, then secretary of state, a double act seeking to reshape the cold war
6:32 am
by balancing competing world powers. kissinger drove america's re—engagement with communist china, paying secret visits to its leaders, paving the way for an historic first visit by a us president in 1972. he sought to improve relations with the soviet union through negotiations about trade and arms control. and in the middle east, he coined a new phrase "shuttle diplomacy" as he flew between capitals to try to constrain arab—israeli conflict. his belief was in realpolitik, the idea that national self—interest trumped human rights or shared values. no nation can make its survival dependent on the goodwill of another state. all this brought him some global celebrity. i don't stand on protocol. if you'lljust call me excellency, we'll take it. we believe that peace is at hand.
6:33 am
but kissinger�*s fame became notoriety as he struggled to end america's involvement in the vietnam war by bombing cambodia. this cut supplies to north vietnam, but also killed hundreds of thousands. his critics accused him of war crimes, his supporters welcomed a nobel peace prize. nothing that has happened to me in public life has moved me more than this award. he was criticized, too, for supporting authoritarian anti—communist leaders such as general pinochet in chile. he backed the coup that brought the general�*s brutaljunta to power. it was at the height of the cold war so that the united states could not be totally indifferent to the question of a communist regime in chile. i shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow. kissinger was considered so indispensable he survived the watergate crisis and was kept on by gerald ford. but he fell out of favour in washington, loathed by the left, distrusted by the right, and began a life of lucrative consultancy.
6:34 am
thus, henry kissinger, a scholar and statesman. a cynic, at times cavalier with people's lives. above all, a diplomat always ready to talk. some breaking news for you now and one woman has been killed in a shooting attack injerusalem and eight others have been wounded. that news coming in from israel's ambulance service and local agencies. we're also hearing that the two suspected attackers have been shot dead by israeli police. they are said to have opened fire at a bus stop and important to point out to you this morning is up 5am out to you this morning is up sam the temporary truce between israel and hamas has been extended for another day. that is holding as we

6:36 am
in the final group games, to stand a chance of reaching the knock out phase of the champions league. and it was a night of familiar failings in istanbul, as once again they squandered a two—goal lead to draw with galatasary. in contrast, arsenal won their group, emphatic 6—0 win, asjoe wilson reports, starting in a stormy istanbul. manchester united's manager says the team is moving in the right direction. he's thinking of this direction. attack. alejandro garnacho makes any finish simple these days. in the 18th minute, united had a two—goal lead in turkey. bruno fernandes. wow. but thatjust meant there was time for it all to change. here's ziyech versus 0nana, free kick part one. and at half time it was 2—1. now united showed courage and purpose in their response. mctominay demonstrating his finishing touch. the lead back to two. now was the ziyech free kick part two and this one even more of a gift. galatasaray now felt the full force of their crowd and the momentum of the game. no stopping that. and another lead squandered to leave
6:37 am
united in the group, just, hanging onto hope. there were six goals in north london, but arsenal scored all of them, six different scorers, too, against lens of france. they'll have tougher opponents to come, but that's the point. arsenal can look forward to them. theirjob is complete — group winners with a game to come, relax and anticipate the future occasions. arsenal didn't have to talk about progress. it was there in the scoreline and their emphatic qualification. you have to be very good to make it seem that easy. joe wilson, bbc news. now we saw the incredible impact this manjude bellingham is having in madrid yesterday on breakfast — and he's scored again in their win over napoli. he is now up to 15 goals in all competitions for real in 16 appearances — and he's become the first player, to have scored in their first four champions league matches for the club. an unbelievable statistic, especially for a player, who is still only 20. it's been a difficult year for the england rugby union
6:38 am
captain 0wen farrell, and now he has decided to step away from the national team to �*prioritise his and his family's mental wellbeing'. farrell led england to semi—finals of the world cup last month, but was banned for the first two games, after a dangerous tackle and booed by some fans on his return. it means he will miss the six nations in a couple of months time as patrick gearey reports. reliable, almost automatic. for more than a decade, 0wen farrell has been the heartbeat of england rugby, their leading point scorer, their captain. he's always been there until now. his club side, saracens, said he would miss the six nations to prioritise his and his family's mental well—being. he will continue to play for and captain his club. immediately there was support from england's head coach, steve borthwick, who said in a statement... everyone at england rugby is fully behind 0wen�*s decision.
6:39 am
this was farrell on october the 27th, taking england to third place after a seven week long rugby world cup. and here he is againjust over a week later, back in league action with saracens. last week he was speaking ahead of their european cup campaign and he was asked if he'd had time to process the world cup. i'm not sure. to be honest, it's not been an easy one to process. but thankfully, we've got some big games to get to get our teeth stuck into and we're straight back into that. so, yeah. settling in all right. other than the world cup, farrell's won all there is to win in rugby union, but he's attracted criticism at times for his tackling. he found himself in the middle of a storm after a high tackle in a world cup warm—up initially didn't result in a ban, only for that decision to be overturned. his father, who coaches ireland, spoke out at the time. what i probably would say
6:40 am
at this moment in time that the circus that's gone around all of this is absolutely disgusting, in my opinion. disgusting. beautifully struck by farrell. to kick like 0wen farrell, you must be able to shut out the world for a few seconds and focus only on the task at hand. it can appear machine—like. behind it all is a human being. patrick gearey, bbc news. the road to recovery has begun for england test captain ben stokes. he shared this image on social media, after undergoing surgery on his left knee. remember he delayed having surgery, at the end of the summer, so he could travel with england to the world cup in india, and even though the team were knocked out in the group—stage, stokes was the second—highest run scorer. he is aiming to be fit for england's test series in india, that starts at the end of january. now the man who led team europe to victory in the ryder cup, back in the italian sunshine in september, has given
6:41 am
the players what they wanted. because luke donald, wants to cement his place in history when he captains them again in 2025. the players, were chanting �*two more years' after their commanding win over team usa in rome and their wish has come true. donald, has played for europe four times, and been vice—captain twice, and now becomes the first europe captain, in almost three decades to retain the role. the two time champion mark williams, is through to the quarter finals of the uk snooker championship in york. the welshman made three centuries, plus three other breaks, of over 50, as he came from behind, to beat compatriot jamie clarke, by 6 frames to 4. williams says the century he made in the final frame, is one of the best he's ever made. while it was a fluke shot that was pivotal in the match between england's tom ford and ding hunjui, or maybe the three—time champion from china wasjust teasing us, and meant for the black to end up in the top right, as he won 6—3. he'll play williams in the quarter finals. of course he meant it. wejust wanted the black to travel around the table. ~ ~ , wanted the black to travel around the table. ~ ~' , i. the table. mike, we will see you
6:42 am
later. schools have been clamping down on vaping following a rise in children using e—cigarettes since the pandemic, with the attractiveness and availability of the products leaving teachers frustrated. at one school in wales, staff patrolling the grounds at lunch time have a zero—tolerance approach, and pupils caught vaping are excluded. 0ur reporter, bethan lewis has more. we have had a few instances in the past where students have gone to those toilets and we have caught them vaping in these toilets. when schools welcomed pupils back full time after the pandemic, they faced a new problem. and what we do have is 15 to 16 staff members on duty every single lunchtime because we prioritize tackling this this type of incident. at esola strozzi in llanelli they decided to crack down hard on vaping. it's meant a big commitment
6:43 am
from staff under strict policy. our policy is if someone is caught vaping or smoking on the school grounds, they will receive a fixed term exclusion. if it's a first time offence, that tends to be a day and we try and work with the parents to try and reduce and change the behaviours and attitudes. but for the ones that don't, the sanctions do increase then and they face further, more severe sanctions. to place the student on a fixed term exclusion is always a difficult decision because they do miss out on their education. therefore, we weigh up the benefits versus the risks of these type of decisions. even though it's only a small number who still vape in school, it can affect school life and the pupils. i see a lot of people my age and up and i don't think it's good. in the c block there's in the toilet because it's closed off. a lot of people vape in there l because no one can see them. it gets in the way of other things. like if you're going to the toilet and there's people doing it in there, you can't go.
6:44 am
you look awkward and uncomfortable just to see people vaping. years ago, children used to go to the toilets to smoke. now vaping is the big problem and schools have taken different approaches to tackle it. here they've put sensors in the toilet so they know vaping happening. at a school in port talbot, they've turned to technology. the cctv will pick up, then the pupil who will come out of the cubicle. and then you talk to them? and then we have a discussion. the deputy head says it's important to act for pupils wellbeing and their education with pupils. it's affecting learning because an addiction is a distraction. they will not be focusing on their lessons if they are worrying about their next nicotine fix. and so what we want to do is try and eliminate that distraction within schools so that we are here for pupils to learn. the availability and appeal of vapes for young people is a frustration when they're being marketed
6:45 am
in bright colours with berry blue or these types of flavours, who are they appealing to? i'd like to see a complete ban of disposable vapes, if i'm perfectly honest. they are the ones with a low price point. they are the ones that i can afford. they look like highlighters. vaping industry representatives say products shouldn't be targeted at children, but that disposable vapes can help smokers. nicotine. they're trying to educate pupils about the rules and potential risks. the welsh government backs tighter restrictions on vapes and stronger regulations are being considered by the uk government. many in schools believe that can't come too soon. bethan lewis, bbc news. you saw one of the teachers there talking about berry flavoured vapes — well now the company which makes more than half the uk's disposable vapes is axing a number of sweet and dessert flavours which have been criticised for appealing to children.
6:46 am
ben's here to tell us more. i suppose this is about whether you try and stop children buying them in the first place and of course they have been around since the mid—2000 and become big business. elfbar and its sister brand lost mary sell well over a billion vapes a year in the uk. 0ne one of the things that has fuelled the rapid rise. child —friendly flavours like bubble gum and cotton candy have helped to fuel their rapid rise. but the company says its phasing them out ahead of an expected government clampdown on the industry. elfbar's also joined calls for retailers who sell its products to be licenced, and vapes only to be displayed behind shop counters, but it says it opposes a new tax on vapes. now, the anti—smoking charity ash said taxing vapes would help to combat illegal sales,
6:47 am
and elfbar's proposals were what they call "half measures that would fail to adequately protect children." the government consultation on new rules for vapes closes on 6 december. that is a sort of timeline, but that is just the end of the consultation process. isjust the end of the consultation rocess. . �* , , , ., isjust the end of the consultation rocess. . �*, , , ., , process. that's the type of people to submit their _ process. that's the type of people to submit their views _ process. that's the type of people to submit their views and - process. that's the type of people to submit their views and the - to submit their views and the industry to submit its views on the potential impact of any proposed measures and we don't have a timetable at the moment of winning any such new rules or legislation measures would be brought in. we will follow that. see you later. it . will follow that. see you later. it is cold this morning and i'm not sure if we had snow but i know we've had some low temperatures around the uk and matt can tell us more. good morninu. uk and matt can tell us more. good morning- a — uk and matt can tell us more. good morning- a bit _ uk and matt can tell us more. good morning. a bit of— uk and matt can tell us more. good morning. a bit of both _ uk and matt can tell us more. good morning. a bit of both through the night _ morning. a bit of both through the night and — morning. a bit of both through the night and this morning. let me take

6:52 am
off and they prepare for theirjourney back home to china. 0ur scotland correspondent lorna gordon has more. everybody ready to go through? the morning wake up call for yang guang. the pandas are creatures of habit. but kirstie's been getting them up earlier as their day of departure draws near. yang guang, who's partially hand—reared as a cub, so he kind of greets the keepers when we come in in the morning and is much more kind of people focused, whereas tian is much more kind of wild in her attitude, which makes her a great fun to work with because she's always keeping us on our toes. for the past 12 years, scotland has been the two giant pandas home. visitors fascinated by these rock star bears, watching as they sleep and eat bamboo. lots of it. a hundred kilos between them every day. you have driven six hours to get here today. yeah. for your birthday? yeah. especially to see the pandas. yeah.
6:53 am
they're lovely, aren't they? i've grown to love them because he loves them. panda hat and a panda fan? a little bit. every time we come to edinburgh, you know, it's like, i've got to call this thing, - we've got to see the pandas. and there's a huge number of panda fans online to the panda cams, soon to be switched off a hit not just here, but around the world. how serious are people who watch the pandas? people watch it 24 hours a day. we get phone calls to see, you know, yang guang not moved today, is they all right? i've not seen the keepers going in and feed them at that time. and as i say, that's great. you know, we've never, ever minded that. we know that pandas are special. some of the visitors might get a bit tearful. i absolutely think there'll be lots of tears for people when they last see them. and i can't guarantee that there won't be tears from some of my keepers when they wave them goodbye at the airport as well. that's the cage. that is the first panda crate.
6:54 am
the pandas hit the headlines when they first arrived. the species is deemed vulnerable, with only around 2,000 left in the wild. despite high hopes, the edinburgh pairing never had a cub. breeding is difficult as the solitary animals only come into heat once a year. experts think tian tian might have conceived but never went full term. it would be lovely to have had a panda cub. of course it would have been. but that isn't the be all and end all. these two individuals are wonderful characters and wonderful ambassadors for the species. and so i think it's about engagement, it's about collaboration internationally, it's about conservation. and sadly, our time with our giant pandas is very sharply drawing to a close. the talks to visitors who come to view the pandas continue even as the pair's time here comes to an end. the zoo says tian tian and yang guang's welfare has always been their top priority, and a keeper and a vet will be with them as they travel
6:55 am

6:56 am
including a huge increase in robberies and thefts. the data from transprt for london — which takes into account all services — shows that offences were up by a third. but the underground showed an 83% rise in thefts and robberies between april and september — compared to last year. tfl said it was working closely with police to address current concerns. now we've got in london more people back than any part of the country. some days, post pre—pandemic, obviously more people using it. and we're encouraging people to report crime if they've been the victims. what we don't want is people to suffer in silence. so we're saying report it to stop it. that would mean that action will be taken. last night, emergency accommodation opened for rough sleepers as temperatures dipped below freezing in the capital. the severe weather emergency protocol has been activated by city hall, which requires councils to provide extra shelter for the homeless. it comes as the quarterly number of rough sleepers reached a record high. police are appealing for help to find a missing girl from west london who disappeared nearly six days ago. 12—year—old santana hailstones was last seen leaving her mum's home address in ladbroke grove on saturday, and hasn't been seen since. she was wearing a red and green

6:58 am
down towards the south. there's still the chance of a few showers moving in today should be falling as rain. through the afternoon, that cloud more restricted to the south will see some sunshine elsewhere between three and six celsius, the maximum temperature. it is a feeling chilly. now overnight tonight, dry and clear to start with. so, again, temperatures down below zero, and we could just see a little more cloud through the early hours into tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature minus three. so another frost first thing on friday. we'll see any cloud we have break up to some sunshine and a largely dry day again as we head through tomorrow. still the small chance of a shower out in the east, but most places staying dry. and temperatures tomorrow between two and five celsius. it remains very cold as we head into the weekend as well. widespread frost for saturday morning and we could just see one or two wintry showers overnight saturday into sunday. that's all for now.

7:02 am
were released from israeli jails. but the latest swap was overshadowed by a claim by hamas that the youngest hostage, ten—month—old baby kfir, his brother ariel and mother shiri, had been killed by an israeli airstrike in gaza. israel says it's a cruel claim and that it's investigating. theirfather, yarden, is still missing. israel's war cabinet gathered late last night. us secretary of state antony blinken arrived in tel aviv for the third time since the war started, to discuss an extension to the truce and more aid to gaza. in the occupied west bank, violence continued. an eight—year—old boy and a teenager, aged 14, were shot dead as the israeli army withdrew from a military operation in a refugee camp. the army said it used missiles, grenades and explosives, killing a senior commander for islamichhad.

notified. ., ~ today and their families have been notified. ., ,, , ., , today and their families have been notified. ., ~' , ., , . good morning to you. some news overnight of a person who was so influential on the international stage when it came to diplomacy as well, who has passed. a very significant figure in us politics. the former us secretary of state henry kissinger has died at the age of 100. no nation can make its survival dependent on the goodwill of another state. serving under presidents nixon and ford, he led america's re—engagement with communist china, and sought a thawing of relations with the soviet union. but he faced criticism for the us bombing of cambodia, which killed hundreds of thousands of people. the former health secretary, matt hancock, will defend his record during the pandemic later
7:07 am
when he begins giving evidence to the covid inquiry. he's faced strong criticism from some of the previous witnesses, and it's emerged that the country's most senior civil servant at the time wanted mr hancock sacked. 0ur correspondent, ellie price, has been following the inquiry. hello. i don't know what to say. why are you here? for lots of people, he's a bloke off that reality tv show. his opponent is recruit number one, former health secretary matt hancock. in fact, he's been on two of them. but matt hancock was criticised for his appearances by some, who felt it made light of his time as health secretary and the serious decisions he made during covid. this unprecedented expansion in british testing capability is an incredible achievement. he was right at the centre of the covid storm — a health secretary in the early dark days — through lockdowns and tier systems, until he was forced to resign for breaking his own lockdown rules by having an affair with a work colleague. it ended his marriage and his career in government. this inquiry has heard plenty
7:08 am
of criticism of mr hancock. he wanted to decide who should live and die if hospitals were overwhelmed, according to the former nhs england boss. dominic cummings, borisjohnson's closest adviser, told the pm he had to be fired, as we heard in this text readout. you need to think through timing of binning hancock. there's no way the guy can stay. he's lied his way through this and killed people and dozens and dozens of people have seen it. right from the start, we've tried to throw a protective ring around our care homes. it was a very bleak picture... just yesterday, the inquiry heard as early as the middle of march, officials knew symptomatic patients would have to be sent to care homes to stop the nhs from clogging up. prime minister. mr speaker, as the honourable lady knows... also yesterday in the commons, the prime minister faced a covid inquiry of his own. asked about evidence suggesting he had said at the time, "just let them die." i didn't. matt hancock has appeared before
7:09 am
the inquiry in earlier hearings about the uk's preparedness for a pandemic. that time he solemnly apologised to victims and families. but that hasn't been enough for some campaigners, who protested outside. matt hancock owes the country answers. i think particularly bereaved families, you know, frontline health care workers, people working in care homes are really owed some answers as to why we went through what we went through. and i think we deserve to hear those answers in a proper forum rather than him trying to salvage his reputation. the last time matt hancock appeared at this inquiry, he came out fighting. he's likely to take a similar approach today, not least because he's already received so much personal criticism and is scheduled to last two days — the ultimate in reality tv. ellie price, bbc news at the covid inquiry in london.

britain is sending a second warship to the gulf because of the rising tensions in the middle east. the royal navy is also taking action to protect europe's undersea cables because of fears of russian aggression. the largest coalmine in the uk is set to close today, more than a year after mining there was due to end. there are concerns that the company that runs the ffos—y—fran site near merthyr tydfil could walk away from cleaning up the site, with estimated costs of between £120 and £175—million. there could be a breakthrough today in the rmt union's long—running dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions. 0ur transport correspondent katy austin has this report. it's nearly a year and a half since the long—running series of strikes on the railway began. today could spell the end of rmt walkouts, for now at least.
7:11 am
in march, maintenance workers and signallers employed by network rail accepted a deal. but thousands of other union members, who work for the companies which run the trains, have continued strikes. over the past few weeks, they've been voting on whether to accept proposals involving a 5% backdated pay rise for last year, more for the lowest paid and job security guarantees. it would lift the threat of rmt strikes until at least the spring, but it wouldn't be the end of the story. the government and the industry still want ways of working to change, arguing the railway is financially unsustainable. this deal would push that discussion into 2024. a pay rise for this year would depend on reaching agreement with individual train companies. it means that each company separately can sort out its individual needs in the way that job roles will change. and that is different across the 14 companies. the mistake was linking it all together, not only as a block of companies, but linking the terms and conditions with the pay. separating that out has meant that it can move forward very quickly and the unions seem to be accepting that change has to come.
7:12 am
if rmt members reject the deal, more strikes could follow. there's been no such progress in the separate train drivers' dispute. their union aslef has announced a fresh wave of industrial action, starting tomorrow. katie austin, bbc news. sir eltonjohn has urged political leaders to do more to eliminate the aids epidemic. speaking to a cross—party group of mp's he said that the uk can be the first country in the world to defeat the virus. he also urged whoever wins the next general election to do more to help end aids worldwide by 2030. jamie lynn spears has left "i'm a celebrity, get me out of here", the itv show has said. a spokesperson said britney spears' younger sister had left the jungle on medical grounds, but gave no further details. the singer and actress is the second star to leave early for medical reasons,

7:14 am
eastern scotland and parts of eastern england, particularly north of the humber. a bit further inland than yesterday. a slight dusting in places. fog around across parts of the midlands. that will play two sunny conditions. it will stay cloudy with outbreaks of rain and strong winds in the south and south—west with the mix of rain on the coast. snow over the hills. notice the temperatures throughout the country this afternoon as we go towards the evening rush hour. some of you struggling to get above freezing. ice will start to form quickly where showers have been falling. icy conditions possible through tonight. the cloud and outbreaks of rain with strong winds in a sample gradually clear away towards france. a widespread frost. some of the coldest conditions tonight, south—west scotland and north—west england. more fog patches around tomorrow. he was showers around. we start to lift the showers up around. we start to lift the showers up in numberas

7:16 am
to loan sharks? well it's often easier and quicker. and since the rules for high—interest lenders were tightened up, the likes of wonga and quickquid went out of business. the result... more people turning to illegal loan sharks instead. the england illegal money lending team also told us that in the first half of the year, 56% of those they've supported borrowed from someone they thought was a friend. we're about to hear one man's experience. he borrowed a little from someone he thought was a �*family friend' — but he ended up paying back a lot lot more. we're calling him "anthony" to protect his identity — and he's been speaking to our cost of living correspondent colletta smith. like so many people anthony grew up in a home where it was normal to borrow cash from a doorstep lender. did it feel like he was a friend? felt like he was a family friend. i

of other world leaders and some 70,000 other attendees. as well as talking about how the world tries to limit global temperature rises to 1.5 degrees, cop28 will concentrate on fast—tracking the move to clean energy sources to "slash" greenhouse gas emissions before 2030. delivering money for climate action from richer to poorer countries, and working on a new deal for developing nations. there will be a focus on nature and people to respond to the impacts of climate change. and a pledge to make cop28 the most inclusive summit ever. 0ur climate editorjustin rowlatt joins us now from dubai. justin, what can we expect from today? what we should expect is a lot of discussion about the commitments

countries make to cutting carbon emissions. this is the first year of something called the global stock—take, the great reckoning the uk is making on progress of countries. there is good news. the good news is we are making progress and heading towards a less high—temperature than we were. instead a further three degrees are talking high 2 degrees is the direction the world is going. we will have to do much better. what they want to do is to get countries to agree to make firm commitments to cut carbon and then stick to them, thatis cut carbon and then stick to them, that is the crucial thing. they also want to try to find ways to make them a bit more accountable. everything here at the un is voluntary, that is one reason why everything takes so long.- voluntary, that is one reason why everything takes so long. people may have heard something _ everything takes so long. people may have heard something about - everything takes so long. people may have heard something about this - have heard something about this story already. 0ne have heard something about this story already. one thing you would not expect at cop28 is discussions going on behind—the—scenes about oil deals. that story has emerged,

7:53 am
and one of the early favourites for best picture at the oscars is oppenheimer. christopher nolan s three—hour epic about the scientist who helped create the atomic bomb, opened injuly right at the start of the actors strike. this meant the cast haven t been able to speak about its huge success ? until now. our entertainment correspondent colin paterson caught up with two of its stars, cillian murphy and emily blunt. this is a matter of life and death. i can perform this miracle. world war two would be over. our boys would come home. it's happening, isn't it? well, cillian murphy, emily blunt, mr and mrs oppenheimer, how are you? very good. can we go back to the 13th ofjuly this year? you're on the red carpet. oppenheimer premiere. the actors' strike is called and you had to leave. what were your memories of that?
7:54 am
it timed out kind of perfect like we did the carpet and then we just left. yeah. we got to put the movie out. we were lucky, you know, we got to put the movie out and then go on strike. so where did you walk to that night? it was a party. i think, straight to the bar. probably. probably straight to the bar. that's how striking started then. yeah. and what have you both done with almost four months that was the actors' strike. for us, it was nice after the kind of craziness of releasing the film to be able to spend time with our families and then see the film be received in the way that it was. and it was kind of, obviously that was a phenomenal response, it wasjust jaw dropping, what happened to it. i think i don't know if any of us have still wrapped our heads around the response to the film and we're so proud to be in it and to be a part of this moment where people flocked to the theatres to see a three—hour historical drama. but i don't know if you can even word what oppenheimer is. and i think we realise that there are so many genres trojan—horsed into it.
7:55 am
i think it played like a rock concert, for people. i think it played like a horror movie. it wasjust thrilling. because it has almost reached the billion dollar mark at the worldwide box office. why has a film about a theoretical scientist done this? it's an event when a christopher nolan film is released, as we know, and he makes very challenging, very provocative, intelligent films. and i think there was a real appetite for that. there is always an appetite for christopher nolan's films, and i think that the film speaks to a lot of issues and a lot of themes and a lot of things that are happening in the world. but it's also just really entertaining. are we saying there's a chance that when we push that button, we destroy the world? chances are near zero. nearzero? what do you want from theory alone? zero would be nice. the success of the film has made it the most successful biographicalfilm of all time, overtaking bohemian rhapsody, freddie mercury.
7:56 am
and i believe... and you didn't even have any singing. but you did kind of base oppenheimer a bit on a rock star. well, this is true. chris sent me, very early on, a picture of bowie in i think was like thin white duke era, you know, with that amazing silhouette and those fantastic tailored trousers look. he was so slim but kind of incredible. and we used that weirdly as a reference, just in terms the way he sort of self—mythologized and the way he designed this look with the hat and the pipe and the trousers and everything. so that silhouette, it was useful for us. this is the best day ever. it is the best day ever. so was yesterday and so is tomorrow. and every day from now till forever. when the film came out, a new word was born, barbenheimer. because you went up against barbie and it kind of worked out for both of you. now, here we are a few months later, and it's the two of you going head
7:57 am
to head for awards season. how would you look back on the whole barbenheimer? i think it was a bigger thing to everyone else than it was to us. we all were very excited that there was such a diverse kind of two films that you could go and see. and i think whoever coined that word, yes. i mean, it was a phenomenon. ..needs a prize or needs to be kind of used to go to work in the marketing department. it was a tremendous marketing thing. but, you know, it was great that there were two great movies that were, like emily says that were so different and that people it was great for cinema. you know, the people made a double bill out of it, so it was only a good thing, i think. have you both seen barbie? yeah, of course. of course. i've seen it a few times. a few times? my little girls love it. they're all about ken. all about ken. if you have seen it a few times you're going to start to know the songs. i know them all.
7:58 am
that soundtrack is on repeat. yeah. build a town. build it fast. when scientists bring their families we never get the best. and when awards season comes around and it's been talked about as a potential best picture nominee and then acting prizes, your names are being bandied about, how does that feel? i mean, it's all very flattering and it's lovely to be talked about but you know, like, i know everyone says this, but we go into the movie to make the best film possible. no one makes films thinking about awards. i'm just happy that it's for this film. you got a hit? well, we've got a hit, which isjust, it's all wonderful that the people love it that much that they're talking about us in this way. and the bonus is we get to hang out. well, cillian murphy, emily blunt, i hope you're ready for four months of going head to head with barbie. thank you. thanks, man. if ever there were two contrasting films. which both made a huge impact. films. which both made a huge im act. ~ films. which both made a huge imact. ~ .,

8:03 am
in return, 30 palestinians were released from israeli jails. but the latest swap was overshadowed by a claim by hamas that the youngest hostage, ten—month—old baby kfir, his brother ariel and mother shiri, had been killed by an israeli airstrike in gaza. israel says it's a cruel claim and that it's investigating. theirfather, yarden, is still missing. israel's war cabinet gathered late last night. us secretary of state antony blinken arrived in tel aviv for the third time since the war started, to discuss an extension to the truce and more aid to gaza. in the occupied west bank, violence continued. an eight—year—old boy and a teenager, aged 14, were shot dead as the israeli army withdrew from a military operation in a refugee camp. the army said it used missiles, grenades and explosives, killing

8:06 am
the covid inquiry will hear from former health secretary, matt hancock, today — he has come under criticism from various witnesses to the inquiry, for the decisions he made during the pandemic. our correspondent ellie price is outside the inquiry this morning. morning to you. i imagine today that matt hancock in such a significant figure. that was someone else going on a moment ago, wasn't it? it figure. that was someone else going on a moment ago, wasn't it? it might be mr hancock— on a moment ago, wasn't it? it might be mr hancock going _ on a moment ago, wasn't it? it might be mr hancock going on _ on a moment ago, wasn't it? it might be mr hancock going on now. - on a moment ago, wasn't it? it might be mr hancock going on now. i - on a moment ago, wasn't it? it might be mr hancock going on now. i was i be mr hancock going on now. i was 'ust ttoin be mr hancock going on now. i was just going to _ be mr hancock going on now. i was just going to say. _ be mr hancock going on now. i was just going to say, given _ be mr hancock going on now. i was just going to say, given his - be mr hancock going on now. i was just going to say, given his role during the pandemic as health secretary and his profile more recently, there will be a great deal of scrutiny on him today. absolutely. let me show you how many people live here waiting for him to arrive. all these photographers. gives a sense of how big today is. they all want to catch a glimpse of matt hancock going on. we caught plenty of glimpses of him in the last few years on reality tv shows.
8:07 am
more crucially he graced tv screens in a press conferences during the pandemic as health secretary, making crucial decisions on the likes of locked vans, social distancing, ppe, care homes, the vaccine roll—out. so many things for him to face questions on. plenty of criticisms over the last few weeks for matt hancock, ranging from suggestions he had a tendency to over promise and under deliver in terms of what he was offering. he offered, one civil servant said he had nuclear levels of confidence. others said he downright lied when i came from dominic cummings. we have also heard from civil servants and from aids as well. turns out there were plenty of calls for him to be sacked at the time, again by civil servants and aides. one of them said it would save lives and protect the nhs if he were sacked. in the end he resigned
8:08 am
for breaking his own social distancing rules when he had an affair with a colleague. there has been some defence for him. michael gove come in a cabinet at that time, said he shed foresight and wisdom in some of the decisions he made. —— michael gove, also in the cabinet at that time. we can expect a punchy tone again today. he will be very defensive. it is a very personal set of criticisms he has faced. he is into reality tv. it is likely to go on for two days and the ultimate test for him. world leaders are facing pressure to accelerate plans to tackle climate change at a major un summit in the united arab emirates. the host of cop28 has been accused of undermining the talks, after documents leaked to the bbc suggested the uae planned to try to use its role to make oil and gas deals. the country insists it's focused on "meaningful climate action." britain is sending a second warship
8:09 am
to the gulf because of the rising tensions in the middle east. the royal navy is also taking action to protect europe's undersea cables, because of fears of russian aggression. the largest coalmine in the uk is set to close today, more than a year after mining there was due to end. there are concerns that the company that runs the ffos—y—fran site near merthyr tydfil could walk away from cleaning up the site, with estimated costs of between £120 million and £175 million. there could be a breakthrough today in the rmt union's long—running dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions. our transport correspondent katy austin has this report. it's nearly a year and a half since the long—running series of strikes on the railway began. today could spell the end of rmt walkouts, for now at least. in march, maintenance workers and signallers employed by network rail accepted a deal. but thousands of other union members, who work for the companies
8:10 am
which run the trains, have continued strikes. over the past few weeks, they've been voting on whether to accept proposals involving a 5% backdated pay rise for last year, more for the lowest paid and job security guarantees. it would lift the threat of rmt strikes until at least the spring, but it wouldn't be the end of the story. the government and the industry still want ways of working to change, arguing the railway is financially unsustainable. this deal would push that discussion into 2024. a pay rise for this year would depend on reaching agreement with individual train companies. it means that each company separately can sort out its individual needs in the way that job roles will change. and that is different across the 14 companies. the mistake was linking it all together, not only as a block of companies, but linking the terms and conditions with the pay. separating that out has meant that it can move forward very quickly and the unions seem to be accepting that change has to come.
8:11 am
if rmt members reject the deal, more strikes could follow. there's been no such progress in the separate train drivers' dispute. their union aslef has announced a fresh wave of industrial action, starting tomorrow. katy austin, bbc news. the former us secretary of state henry kissinger has died at the age of 100. no nation can make its survival dependent on the goodwill of another state. serving under presidents nixon and ford, he led america's re—engagement with communist china, and sought a thawing of relations with the soviet union. but he faced criticism for the us bombing of cambodia, which killed hundreds of thousands of people.
8:12 am
why not find out about the cold weather conditions. this is a short while ago in devon. we have had some snow on the moors this morning. the reason is because we have a big split in temperatures across the south. for most of us are really cold start with a widespread frost. snow in the channel islands, 7 degrees. that is the sign there is a weather front in place degrees. that is the sign there is a weatherfront in place producing quite a bit of rain. on the northern edge, over higher ground, we are seeing some snow. the odd flake mixed in with rain elsewhere. they showers continue in the east of scotland and town north—east england. it could be quite icy few spots. mist and fog in the midlands and east anglia. most of that will clear. it'll be dry and bright for most. still a mix of rain, sleet and snow towards devon and, where the
8:13 am
gusty winds continue. further north, clearer skies. temperatures still temperatures still struggle. still snow flurries in the east of scotland and towards the north—east of england as well. we showers in place to finish the day, as you go into tonight and temperatures drop quickly, we could see ice becoming an issue. there will be an ice risk as we see temperatures fall widely below freezing. at least tomorrow most will have a dry and sunny day. back to you. thank you. families of fallen police officers have been remembering their loved ones at an event at the house of commons. it comes as bryn hughes, the father of pc nicola hughes who was shot and killed in 2012, awaits a response from the government. he is campaigning for a medal to be introduced to honour emergency service workers killed in the line of duty. john maguire has this report. it's just literally around the corner from here, where the two
8:14 am
officers were gunned down as they went to that bogus call earlier on today. a policeman has been stabbed to death while attempting to make an arrest in birmingham. although from different generations, they chose the same life, the same job, the same vocation — to protect us. all have given their lives while trying to keep ours safe from harm. at this special ceremony at the houses of parliament, families of fallen officers became the first to receive these brass leaves, cut from the uk police memorial at the national memorial arboretum in staffordshire. each of these leaves symbolises a life lost in the line of duty. today's presentation means a lot. the leaf cut from the fabric of the uk police memorial, inscribed with fiona and nicola's details are presented to theirfathers paul bone and bryn hughes. applause.
8:15 am
but for bryn hughes, whose daughter nicola was murdered in 2012, it's a reminder of his ongoing fight to see formal recognition for emergency service workers killed in the line of duty. it's not worth thinking about what they went through that day. you could torture yourself... but yeah, like you say, it was an ordinary day, answering a 999 call, what they probably answered two or three dozen a day, a week, something like that. and thenjust to be met with what they were met with. it's been nearly two years since bryn began his medals for heroes campaign. all the families here support him. you don't actually get anything tangible from the state, something tangible that you can pin on your chest or do whatever you like with it. it would be nice for the state to recognise the loss of the police services. the families share an experience that loved ones of frontline officers must fear every day.

wpc yvonne fletcher was shot outside the libyan embassy in 1984. archive: in the road in front i of the libyan people's bureau, a group of policemen's helmets lie where they fell as the bullets flew. and with them lies the uniform cap of the policewoman who died. nearly 40 years on from her death, yvonne fletcher's sisters say the time is right for the government to acknowledge those who lost their lives. other services, like the military, they have a medal. and so i think it would be... it's important to other... for the police who've fallen to be able to have a medal, because they've also served their communities, and i don't think they should be left out. gillian wombwell�*s husband david was shot while on duty in 1966. even now, almost 60 years on, she still has dreams about the aftermath of his death. archive: for here, -
8:17 am
with a congregation of police and relatives was held a funeral service... she supports bryn's campaign, but for her, this lasting memento is a welcome acknowledgement of her husband's sacrifice. i've got something in my home now. i've got something i can show people, something i can be proud of, something i can pass on to the children. and it's been such a long time waiting for this, and i'm just glad iget it... got it before i died really. because the two other colleagues, who were shot with david, you notice they haven't got a leaf because there are no remaining relatives. this was a chance to talk directly to the crime and policing minister. in october, he told bryn he supported his call for a medal. what we're asking for is, i think it's important. i'll do everything i can to drive this forward and i'm hoping we'll have something concrete to say in the very, very near future. nearly two months on, he again declined to say exactly when it may happen.
8:18 am
i can't give too many details, but it is something which i support and i'm very confident when i find something to say in the near future about it, to honour those officers who have given their lives. within this parliament. is that a definite will happen within this parliament? i am hoping it'll happen as soon as possible. yeah. in calling for medals for heroes, these families say they aren't asking a great deal — just for appreciation and recognition of the service given and the sacrifice that they and their loved ones have made. john maguire, bbc news, westminster. the number of rough sleepers in england increased last year for the first time since 2017 — with many camping in tents in cities and towns. new figures out later this morning will reveal whether that trend has continued over the past few months. eleanor lawrie has been speaking to people about their experience

of living on the streets. their homes and possessions destroyed. oh, my god. but within weeks, rough sleepers are back outside this london hospital. they were originally moved on due to health concerns and complaints of anti—social behaviour. anthony was arrested last time for refusing to leave. he says he's staying put. i lost myjob. i was spending a fortune on rent. the pension wasn't covering it. my savings was going and this was the move. i had to make that move. i've still got my pension. i'm not paying rent. i can go to the gym, shower every day. anthony is not the only one who's been moved on. in bristol, tim spent time camping out at this pedestrian roundabout in the city centre. we're in the bear pit in bristol. it's not the nicest place in the world. i didn't choose to live here — didn't want to live here.

the council has put up signs telling people to leave, but tim says the struggle to find housing has had a huge effect on his life. six months where i could have been working, could have been paying for a roof over my head. i've just ended up in a situation where i wasn't able to get a room. he says the tents are symptomatic of a wider problem. there comes a level where you can't hide homelessness and rough sleeping and brush it under the carpet. it will be visible. at times. it's been taken over by lots and lots of tents. but that's a reflection of the wider problem of rough sleeping, not necessarily the people that live here. there are almost 20,000 people waiting for social rented properties in bristol. julie dempsey�*s homeless charity can't keep up with demand for tents. we actually got to the point last week where we had exhausted our supply. we couldn't get any more tents and we were turning people away. she says that mental health is the worst she's seen since founding the charity.
8:21 am
we now work alongside a charity called hope against suicide because people are so despondent that their situation will not change. housing benefit hasn't been unfrozen. people cannot afford private rent. dave watkinson knows firsthand how bad things can get after terrible life events led to him living in a tent in his sixties. i lost my mother and my father within a year of each other and went through a divorce. and then i was depressed. as it was. i left where i was living. both my sons passed away. it put me in a right state and ijust didn't care about myself. and i ended up becoming homeless. being housed by charity emmeus bristol, where he now works, has given him his life back. if it hadn't have been for them,
8:22 am
i wouldn't have been alive. they gave me my self—esteem back. a reason to get up in the morning and, you know, just a reason to live and help other people. the government has committed to end rough sleeping. it has pledged over £1 billion for councils in the three years to 2025. but for many people, the prospect of being housed remains far away. eleanor lawrie, bbc news in bristol. we are going to take you to edinburgh, edinburgh zoo. this is panda cam. this is one of two pandas who are part of an exchange programme, brought here in december 2011. as part of an agreement with china. it was hoped this panda and

like the pandas, aren't we? at home, chilling out. fraudsters are impersonating one of the services we trust the most. rav wilding explains how criminals are posing as police officers in order to steal your money. one person recently lost a massive £63,000 to this unnerving crime, so i'll tell you how to stay safe, including the four things the police will never ask you for. also today, after getting the news that doctors are no longer able to help my dad with his terminal prostate cancer, we're making as many memories as we can. he always wanted to see my daughter emilie perform at the cavern club, just like he did back in the day. # like i've never done before.# i found it and you found it really emotional. oh, i did, yeah, definitely. yeah, idid. i had a little tearful moment. i am so glad we got to make it

8:27 am
to suffer in silence. so we're saying report it to stop it. that would mean that action will be taken. last night, emergency accommodation opened for rough sleepers as temperatures dipped below freezing in the capital. the severe weather emergency protocol has been activated by city hall — which requires councils to provide extra shelter for the homeless. it comes as the quarterly number of rough sleepers reached a record high. police are appealing for help to find a missing girl from west london who disappeared nearly six days ago. 12—year—old santana hailstones was last seen leaving her mum's home address in ladbroke grove on saturday — and hasn't been seen since. she was wearing a red and green morocco football shirt with the number two on the back, and a dark—coloured puffa jacket. trains running between paddington and reading continue to be disrupted this morning after a broken rail was found in west london yesterday. a defect was found in the hayes & harlington area where trains transfer from one track to another. it is the fourth damaged rail on the great western line within eight days. network rail said it "proactively" inspected all of its track and safety was its "highest priority". services are expected to be disrupted until the end of the day. let's take a look at the tubes now.
8:28 am
on the elizabeth line there are severe delays between hayes and harlington to reading following a signalfailure. the metropolitan line has severe delays between wembley park and aldgate and minor delays between uxbridge and harrow on the hill. all other lines are running a good service. time for a look at the weather. here's kate. good morning. a cold start this morning. temperatures below zero, so a widespread frost. there's quite a bit of cloud around for all, but it is a little thicker down towards the south. there's still the chance of a few showers moving in today should be falling as rain. through the afternoon, that cloud more restricted to the south and we will see some sunshine elsewhere between three and six celsius, the maximum temperature. it is feeling chilly. now overnight tonight, dry and clear to start with. so, again, temperatures down below zero, and we could just see a little more cloud through the early hours into tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature minus three. so another frost first thing on friday. we'll see any cloud we have break up to some sunshine and a largely dry day again as we head through tomorrow. still the small chance
8:29 am
of a shower out in the east, but most places staying dry. and temperatures tomorrow between two and five celsius. it remains very cold as we head into the weekend as well. widespread frost for saturday morning and we could just see one or two wintry showers overnight saturday into sunday. that's all for now, but if you want to have a look at some rather unusual spy objects — shown to us in a room by mi6 — head to our website, where all will be revealed. i'm back in half an hour, but for now it's back to naga and charlie. for the last 12 years edinburgh zoo has been home to the only giant pandas in the uk — but if you're thinking of paying them a visit, time is running out fast. today's the final day people will get to see tian—tian and yang—guang before their encloure is shut off and they prepare

8:32 am
the morning wake—up call for yang guang. ready? good boy. the pandas are creatures of habit. but kirstie's been getting them up earlier as their day of departure draws near. yang guang was partially hand—reared as a cub, so he kind of greets the keepers when we come in in the morning and is much more kind of people focused, whereas tian is much more kind of wild in her attitude, which makes her a great fun to work with because she's always keeping us on our toes. for the past 12 years, scotland has been the two giant pandas' home. visitors fascinated by these rock star bears, watching as they sleep and eat bamboo. lots of it. a hundred kilos between them every day. you have driven six hours to get here today. yeah. for your birthday? yeah. especially to see the pandas. yeah. they're lovely, aren't they? i've grown to love them because he loves them. so i want to run out and grab one andjust hugging.
8:33 am
panda hat and a panda fan? a little bit. every time we come to edinburgh, you know, it's like, i've got to go, we've got to see the pandas. and there's a huge number of panda fans online to the panda cams, soon to be switched off a hit not just here, but around the world. how serious are people who watch the pandas? people watch it 24 hours a day. we get phone calls to say, you know, yang guang's not moved today, is he all right? i've not seen the keepers going in and feed them at that time. and as i say, that's great. you know, we've never, ever minded that. we know that pandas are special. some of the visitors might get a bit tearful? i absolutely think there'll be lots of tears for people when they last see them. and i can't guarantee that there won't be tears from some of my keepers when they wave them goodbye at the airport as well. that's the cage. that is the first panda crate. the pandas hit the headlines when they first arrived. the species is deemed vulnerable, with only around 2,000 left in the wild. despite high hopes, the edinburgh pairing never had a cub. breeding is difficult as the solitary animals only come into heat once a year.
8:34 am
experts think tian tian might have conceived but never went full term. it would be lovely to have had a panda cub. of course it would have been. but that isn't the be all and end all. these two individuals are wonderful characters and wonderful ambassadors for the species. and so i think it's about engagement, it's about collaboration internationally, it's about conservation. and sadly, our time with our giant pandas is very sharply drawing to a close. the talks to visitors who come to view the pandas continue even as the pair's time here comes to an end. the zoo says tian tian and yang guang's welfare has always been their top priority, and a keeper and a vet will be with them as they travel back to china, for the two giant pandas were ever only on loan to scotland. a goodbye we always knew was coming. lorna gordon, bbc news at edinburgh zoo.

the lead back to two. now was the ziyech free kick part two and this one even more of a gift. galatasaray now felt the full force of their crowd and the momentum of the game. no stopping that. and another lead squandered to leave united in the group, just hanging onto hope. there were six goals in north london, but arsenal scored all of them, six different scorers, too, against lens of france. they'll have tougher opponents to come, but that's the point. arsenal can look forward to them. theirjob is complete — group winners with a game to come, relax and anticipate the future occasions. arsenal didn't have to talk about progress. it was there in the scoreline and their emphatic qualification. you have to be very good to make it seem that easy. joe wilson, bbc news. now we saw the incredible impact this manjude bellingham is having in madrid yesterday on breakfast, and he's scored again
8:40 am
in their win over napoli. he is now up to 15 goals in all competitions for real in 16 appearances — and he's become the first player, to have scored in their first, four champions league matches for the club. an unbelievable statistic, especially for a player, who is still only 20. it's been a difficult year for the england rugby captain owen farrell, and now he has decided to step away from the national team to �*prioritise his and his family's mental wellbeing'. it means he will miss next year's six nations. england head coach steve borthwick said he fully supports the decision. farrell led england to the final of the 2019 world cup and the semi—finals this year, but was banned for the first two games after a dangerous tackle in a warm up game. he was booed by some fans on his return, and his father andy, the ireland head coach, described the vilification, of his son on social media as "disgusting". farrell will continue to play for his club saracens. the road to recovery has begun for england test captain ben stokes. he shared this image on social media, after undergoing surgery on his left knee. remember he delayed having surgery at the end of the summer,
8:41 am
so he could travel with england to the world cup in india, although he was only fit enough to bat there, and even though the team were knocked out in the group—stage, stokes was the second—highest run scorer. he is aiming to be fit for england's test series in india, that starts at the end of january. the two—time champion, mark williams, says he played the frame of his life to reach the quarter finals of the uk snooker championship in york, while mark selby, who's also won this trophy twice, thought he was going home, until he held his nerve to edge out barry hawkns 6—5. this was no laughing matter for the so called jester from leicester, as he was made to go the distance, in a match that he said left him exhausted. he'll need a lie down before facing judd trump tomorrow. while it was a fluke shot that was pivotal in the match between england's tom ford and ding hunjui or maybe the 3
