deal or no deal in dubai? delegates at the cop climate summit try to reach an agreement to limit global warming. turkish football in crisis as a club president walks on to the pitch and punches a referee in the face. and santa paws — why more and more people are buying christmas presents for their pets. and coming up on bbc news, huge night ahead for manchester united with their champions league at stake later at old trafford against bayern munich. good afternoon. the prime minister is trying to fight off a rebellion by his own conservative mps

over his flagship rwanda policy. there's a knife—edge vote on draft legislation in the house of commons tonight. the bill is designed to send some migrants who arrive in the uk illegally to rwanda. well, the debate on that bill is now in full swing. some tory mps say it doesn't go far enough — others say it ignores international law. this morning, rishi sunak has been working hard to shore up support for his bill, as our political correspondent alex forsyth now reports. just a warning, her report does contain some flash photography. it was still dark when conservative mps arrived in downing street early this morning. over breakfast, the prime minister was trying to persuade them to back his latest attempt to send asylum seekers to rwanda. �* , ., attempt to send asylum seekers to rwanda. �* ,, ., attempt to send asylum seekers to rwanda. �* , ., ., ., rwanda. are you going to vote a . ainst rwanda. are you going to vote against the — rwanda. are you going to vote against the bill? _ rwanda. are you going to vote against the bill? they - rwanda. are you going to vote against the bill? they were - against the bill? they were tight-lipped _ against the bill? they were

it is a fundamental in this act, this bill, is part of that piece. the prime minister is determined and i'm determined to support it in every wave is that this will come to a head later today when there is a vote on the government's plan. the auestion vote on the government's plan. the question is — vote on the government's plan. the question is whether the prime minister�* own mps back him or deliver a blow to his authority? the attempts to persuade conservative mps will continue this afternoon with meetings and phone calls as the potential rebels work out watch because they will take. but even if rishi sunak wins enough support today, this is a problem postponed rather than resolved because the tensions and the divisions will only return in the new year. the labour leader giving speech in milton keynes this morning was scathing. taste keynes this morning was scathing. we are keynes this morning was scathing. - are all stuck in their psychodrama, all being dragged down to their level and that is what theyjust don�*t understand. while they are swanning around, self importantly, with their factions and their star

chambers, fighting like rats in a sack, there is a country out here that isn�*t being governed. as mps debate the government�*s latest plan to send people to rwanda, what happens next remains up in the air, unlike the plains. alex forsyth, bbc news, westminster. our deputy political editor vicki young joins me. the vote tonight, how high are the stakes do you think for rishi sunak? well, they are very high. if you think about it, four years ago today, the conservatives won a majority of 80 so it�*s absolutely extraordinary we are standing here discussing the possibility of a defeat. the government so worried that the climate change minister is having to dash back from the kop summit in dubai. rishi sunak is placed a lot of emphasis on this policy. he has made it a priority and invested a lot of time and money so if it were to be defeated at this stage, it would certainly undermine his authority and it is worth giving

some historical context. this is the second reading because what happens is the policy is put forward, it is put through on the detail is fought over later. the last time a prime minister was defeated at this stage on something was 1986, it was margaret thatcher. i think what would be most worrying for the government is this does suggest a lack of discipline. this is an issue, the rwanda policy, that most conservative mps agree on that here they are managing to disagree and even threatening the government with the feet. i do wonder whether the fact that they would be unleashing the unknown, no one knows what would happen tonight at 7.30 if the government is defeated, it may be the one thing that forces them to maybe withdraw back from the cliff edge here. so we could be looking at more abstentions rather than voting against, which means this could get through but then of course they�*ll start rallying about the detail in the new year.— start rallying about the detail in the new year. ., ~ , ., , . the new year. thank you very much. vicki young- — an asylum seeker on board

the bibby stockholm barge in dorset has died. the controversial three—storey barge, docked off portland, houses people awaiting the outcome of their asylum applications. campaigners say it is a human tragedy for which the government must take responsibility. our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford is with me now. what more can you tell us? the bibby stockholm is a large accommodation barge and a cheaper alternative the government says, to keeping asylum seekers and hotels. it first hit the headlines in august when it was closed almost immediately after it opened because of fears over legionnaires�* disease. now there has been a sudden death. police say they were called just after 6.20 this morning and are investigating the circumstances that several sources have told the bbc it is thought the man may have taken his own life. charities that work with asylum seekers say that people staying on the barge are a bit isolated because it is in a restricted area of the port. so although they are free to come and

90, although they are free to come and go, they have to go through metal detectors every time they go and come back. the buses that take them into town only leave every hour, so it is a bit more isolating than some of the other accommodation where asylum seekers are kept and one that charities described as a quasi prison. the home secretaryjames cleverley told the commons the death will be fully investigated but hasn�*t given any details about what kind of investigation that would be. daniel, thank you very much indeed. daniel, thank you very much indeed. daniel sandford there. now, will there or won�*t there be a deal at the un climate summit in dubai to prevent more global warming? on the final day of the cop28 climate conference, delegates are trying to hammer out a new final agreement, after an earlier draft was met with a storm of criticism because it stopped short of calling forfossilfuels to be phased out. our climate editor, justin rowlatt is in dubai. how close are we to an agreement?

i don�*t know if you can hear the cheering but that is not marking that we have a deal. this is a protest against the dialling down of ambitions here. very rare, the largest protest i had seen, actually. how close are we to a deal? we get the text in about an hour�* time. that would tell us what sort of compromise we have on these key issues. the headline one being the future of fossil fuels but also very importantly, will there be increased ambition on climate finance for developing nations? it is a compromise we are talking about here. compromises rarely satisfy everybody about what they will be hoping it is enough to bring together the 198 countries who all need to agree. this is a consensus operation. if they can get that across, i think at this late stage, they will be feeling relieved and begin to pack up and go home. but i think we could have hours of

negotiations left.— think we could have hours of negotiations left. ok, i know you will keep us— negotiations left. ok, i know you will keep us posted, _ negotiations left. ok, i know you will keep us posted, thank - negotiations left. ok, i know you will keep us posted, thank you i negotiations left. ok, i know you i will keep us posted, thank you very much. justin rowlatt, our climate editor. campaigners have written to police asking them to invesigate some of the thousands of deaths of patients with mental health issues in the norfolk and suffolk nhs trust. a report by independent auditors found as many as 8,440 patients had died unexpectedly over three years. the trust says it�*s started a review of patient deaths. sophie hutchinson reports. for many years, there�*s been deep concern about the safety of mental health services across norfolk and suffolk. now, there are calls for the police to investigate why patients are dying. everything that they didn�*t do exacerbated his state. 21—year—old student theo brennan—hulme suffered from bouts of severe anxiety. his mother told me that the plan when he was in crisis

was to call her, but the mental health services failed to do that and days after a short emergency appointment, he was found having taken his life in his university bedroom. the coroner at theo�*s inquest issued what�*s as a prevention of future death report, or pfd, highlighting concerns about the mental health services and warning of a risk that future deaths could occur if action wasn�*t taken. the lack of training, the lack of staffing, the lack of care was known about. i know there were previous pfds before theo that suggested things needed to improve. but they couldn�*t have got any worse for theo, and that�*s abhorrent to the memory of all the people who went before him. a group of bereaved families, staff at the trust and patients has now asked police to investigate deaths where coroners have repeatedly flagged up risks,

such as delays in treatment, lack of patient follow—ups and chaotic record—keeping. we think there's a criminal case to answer and we want the police to investigate. so we're asking them to look at all the deaths, but particularly the deaths that have occurred when the coroner has issued a prevention of future deaths certificate, or notice, and where the same mistakes have been repeated time and time again. serious questions remain about the deaths of mental health patients here. just six months ago, independent auditors came to the conclusion that the norfolk and suffolk trust had simply lost track of those who�*d died. in its report, it found that over the course of three years, more than 8,000 patients had died unexpectedly. it�*s very toxic within the trust. there are undertones of bullying and if you raise concerns about patient safety or even staff

safety, you�*re not listened to. charlie, not his real name, is a nurse at the trust. he told me about severe staff shortages, that a youth team had lost eight members of staff in a month, and that one of the crisis teams was so short—staffed it no longer functioned at night. from your experience, do you think any of the deaths that you�*ve been aware of have been preventable? i think a significant proportion of those deaths have been preventable. i think very simple measures could have been put into place to avoid these people dying. the trust has offered its severe condolences to families of people affected. it said "it�*s working hard to learn from these incidents, to change the culture and is reviewing all the prevention of future deaths reports". sophie hutchinson, bbc news, norfolk. and details of organisations offering information and support with mental health, or feelings of despair are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.

israel has continued its bombardment of gaza, with the main focus on khan younis in the south. there has also been fighting in rafah near the egyptian border, where thousands of displaced palestinians have sought refuge. meanwhile, in the city ofjenin, in the occupied west bank, palestinian health officials say that at least four palestinians have been killed in a drone strike during an israeli raid on the city. israeli authorities have said that the men were throwing explosives at troops. ukraine�*s president zelensky is due to hold talks with president biden and politicians in washington later today. it comes amid doubts over whether the united states will provide more military support for ukraine to deal with russia�*s ongoing invasion. republicans in congress are blocking a deal, which mr zelensky has called a "dream come true" for the russian president, vladimir putin.

three teenagers have died following a crash between a car and a bus in coedely in south wales. two boys aged 18 and one aged 19 were declared dead at the scene. our wales correspondent tomos morgan is there. what more do we know about what happened? south wales police are continuing their investigation but the welsh ambulance service were called here to coedely, in rhondda cynon taf, around 7pm yesterday evening. they deployed seven ambulances. three doctors were here as well. when they got here, three teenagers, two aged between 18 and one aged 19 were pronounced dead at the same. and 119 and 18—year—old men were taken to the university hospital of wales in cardiff with life threatening

injuries. another two people were also taken there with minor injuries. locals have told the bbc that there have been concerns about this stretch of road and calls for a speed camera to be installed here in the past. but south wales police, as they continue their investigation, they continue their investigation, the road is now reopen. they are appealing for witnesses and appealing for witnesses and appealing for witnesses and appealing for any dash cam footage of the event that took place here last night. of the event that took place here last niuht. ., ., of the event that took place here last niuht. . ~ i. , of the event that took place here last niuht. ., ~' , . last night. thank you very much. tomos morgan — last night. thank you very much. tomos morgan reporting - last night. thank you very much. tomos morgan reporting there. l the time is 16 minutes past one. our top story this afternoon. the prime minister tries to shore up support from his own mps for his flagship rwanda legislation — ahead of a crunch vote tonight. and coming up — the singer alicia keys surprises commuters with a performance of some

of her biggest hits — at a central london station. coming up on bbc news, all turkish football leagues are suspended indefinitely following an assault on a referee from an official. this turkish fa have called it a night of shame. with many people struggling to pay for christmas this year because of the cost of living, more shoppers are expected to use �*buy now pay later�* services to get them through december. those deals let people spread the cost of a purchase over time. but there are concerns they could also lead many people into serious and unmanageable debt. here�*s our cost of living correspondent, colletta smith. well, it�*s buy now and debt later, isn�*t it? chantelle has grown up buying now and paying later. she signed up to spread her first

payment nearly ten years ago when she wasjust 17. the payments add up, so you pay the £300 this month. you still owe £300 the next month, but then you buy more stuff that is going to keep going up and up. so at that stage you were thousands of pounds in debt? yeah. i owed over 3,000 on the very. a few hundred on the klarna. did itjust feel like free money to you? it�*s funny you say that, because that was literally what i used to say. it was free money because it is. even though i had to pay it back. mentally, i wasn�*t thinking that. i wasjust thinking, oh my god, they�*ll let me have this money. i can buy something and i can worry about paying it back another time. once you miss a payment, that�*s it. you�*re just down the rabbit hole and it�*s really hard to get out of. but when chantelle got a newjob, she totally shifted her attitude to money as well. that�*s when i decided, no, i�*m just going to save up, start saving alln my wages, pay these debts off,

and then that hard earned money is going to be mine. and that�*s exactly what i did. and it�*s the best thing i�*ve ever done. shopping is an addiction. using these buy now pay laters, it becomes a routine. you�*re comfortable with it. if they even looked at my bank statements and things like that, they�*d have seen that i probably didn�*t have enough money to pay back what i was borrowing. but they didn�*t look? they just didn�*t look. they don�*t look. and that�*s the nub of the issue for debt charities. with no regulation from the government, they�*re seeing more people falling into problem debt without realising. it's being sold really aggressively at the point that you check out online. it means that you're not necessarily seeing all of the terms and conditions as clearly as you would when you take out a credit card. i think we are now at the point where the government are dragging their feet on this. the financial conduct authority has welcomed plans to regulate, buy now, pay later. the government had previously said that it was intention to regulate, buy now, pay later, and we simply can't wait much longer for action on this. that�*s exactly what chantelle thinks, too. how many more people must get in debt before they bring the regulations in? i don�*t think that�*s fair whatsoever. something needs to be done now, because the longer they wait,

the more people that are getting in debt. you shouldn�*t be able to have one of these buy now, pay letters, pay it back and have nothing left in your bank. it shouldn�*t be like that. the government have told me they think that when used appropriately, buy now, pay later can be a useful way for people to manage their finances. but chantelle�*s worried lots of people don�*t use it that way, and she�*s hoping they can learn from her mistakes. colletta smith, bbc news, in birmingham. mobile phone, tv and broadband customers must be told up—front about any price rises their provider includes in their contract under new plans set out by the regulator — ofcom. there have been some big increases in the last year for some users mid—contract due to high inflation. the regulator says customers should be told about price rises in their contract up front in pounds and pence. about 20 homes have been evacuated on the isle

of wight after a landslip. it happened near the town of ventnor, on the south—east of the island last night. it�*s thought that stress fractures in the surrounding coastal area might mean that more landslips are possible. all football league games in turkey after the president of one of the country�*s top clubs walked on to the pitch at the final whistle and punched the referee in the face, because he didn�*t like the result. our sports correspondent katie gornall is here — extraordinary scenes. take us through what happened? the referee is one of the best in turkey, he was attacked at the final whistle by a man who ran onto the

pitch and struck the referee after his team conceded eight 97th minute equaliser in the turkish top league. it sparked a melee of players and officials eitherjoining the chaos or trying to intervene and fans invaded the pitch. the referee was struck several times as he lay on the ground and he eventually made it to the dressing room with the help of police and was taken to hospital, later found to have a fracture under his eye. the turkish fa have described it as a night of shame and we can hearfrom described it as a night of shame and we can hear from the federation president. translation: after the match our referee was subjected to a very bad and inhumane attack by irresponsible thugs. we strongly condemn this attack. and as the turkish football federation, we held an emergency meeting and suspended art matches in all leagues

than the previous figure. but there�*s been no movement in the number of people who are not working or looking for work. our economics correspondent andy verity reports. this year has seen workers collect the fastest wage growth in more than two decades, as employers have paid more to attract and keep their staff. but now, pay rises have slowed down to an average of 7.3% in the year to october. because price rises have slowed down even more sharply, that nominal pay is rising faster than inflation, meaning that in terms of what they can buy, the average worker is slightly better off than a year ago. on the more up to date figures from employers�* payrolls, wages are only 5.3% above a year ago. could it be that an overheating economy is now slowing down with no need for us to crash into recession? economists can�*t yet be sure. we�*ve still got more people out of work than we had before the pandemic. we�*ve got really significant inequalities and quite significant disadvantage for different groups,

particularly people with long term health conditions. and so i do think it�*s going to be a rocky, potentially a rocky couple of months, rocky next year. i don�*t think we�*re going to see a boom in living standards that we might have hoped for before this big round of interest rate rises. the government�*s big policy goal forjobs is to encourage those who�*ve been out of the workplace for years back into it. something charities like this one have been trying to make happen — supporting women re—entering the workplace with clothes for interviews and coaching. the coaching and the dressing, it played a key aspect in kind of boosting my confidence again, because you have people that genuinely want you to succeed and notjust by preparing you for the interview mentally, but physically as well. so far, though, there�*s been no movement in the number of people of working age who aren�*t working or looking for work, many of them because they�*ve suffered a long term sickness

— 2.6 million. we found this year our clients have taken longer to find a job and they�*re having to go to more job interviews in order to then secure theirjob. and often they�*re telling us that they�*re going to jobs that they feel overqualified for. so again, there�*s a slight mismatch between what they feel capable of and then the job opportunities that are out there. while the bank of england�*s warned interest rates are likely to stay higher for longer than some have hoped, in the city, they�*re now confident that by next summer interest rates will be falling. andy verity, bbc news. the six nominees have been revealed for this year s sports personality of the year award — with an array of ages, and sports represented. the names on the list for the public to vote for are cricketer stuart broad, jockey frankie dettori, england goalkeeper mary earps, alfie hewitt — the wheelchair tennis player, the athlete katarina johnson thompson and finally, golf�*s rory mcilroy.
