translation: this is a plan - of interventions with which we want to make a contribution to give african younger generations a right that until now has been denied. because here in europe we have often spoken about the right to emigrate, but we have almost never talked about how to guarantee the right not to be forced to emigrate. live now to daviday ghilionay, our bbc news reporter who isjoining us from the newsroom. daviday, can you tell us why this deal with albania is so important for giorgia meloni and her governemnt? thank you for your question. it is still vital, this deal. she is sending a strong message to the people who voted for almost two years ago. she's also talking to her opponents and people who have been criticising her because obviously
7:32 pm
now the migration crisis is one of the most delicate political issues. that's also one of the most ones to tackle at the beginning of her government as soon as she was elected she struggled to deliver. you do know her electoral campaign she made big promises, she wanted to tackle illegal migration and stop illegal migrants. she sought numbers going up in the first six months of her government. now she showing she's doing something real, she's doing something concrete to tackle the crisis. although critics are saying that to process asylum—seekers are not enough. and probably waste of money for some people. she's actually doing and she's achieving very strong message, which is been delivered. she doing something real. and voters already

7:34 pm
role that italy wants to play in africa. also considering that other major players internationally are trying to have an influence, such as china. giorgia meloni has been criticising for a year france for having a colonial approach towards the african continent. now she wants to build a relationship with several countries in order to relaunch europe and to tackle the migration crisis from a different perspective. making africa a richer, more powerful international continent. good to have that assistant for the our bbc news reported joining us live from the newsroom. south africa's former presidentjacob zuma has been suspended by the anc — the political party he was once the leader of for more than nine years. anc party officials decided to take action against mr zuma after he created a political
7:35 pm
movement to directly rival his former party and then told people not to vote for the anc in this year's general election. since being forced out of office in 2018 and mired in multiple allegations of corruption, mr zuma has launched a number of highly personal attacks against his successor, president cyril ramaphosa. disposable vapes are set to be banned across the uk. ministers are trying to tackle the rise in children vaping illegally. the prime minister says action is needed before the problem becomes "endemic". powers in existing environmental laws will be used to implement the ban. there will also be new legislation in england, scotland and wales aimed at restricting vape flavours, introducing plain packaging and placing limits on displays in shops. my myjob as prime minister is to do what i believe is right for them you talk to any parent or teacher as
7:36 pm
i've been doing here this morning they'll talk to you about the worry and rising vaping among children. children shouldn't be vaping. we don't want them to get addicted, we don't want them to get addicted, we don't understand the full long—term health impacts. it's right that we take strong action to step aside, that's what were doing. banning disposable dates, taking powers to go after the flavours, the appearance, —— vaping. also improving enforcement. making it easier to levy on the spot fines of retailers who shouldn't be selling to kids. taken together with a strong set of measures we can improve our children's health. rishi sunak speaking _ improve our children's health. rishi sunak speaking earlier. it would mean the ukjoins sunak speaking earlier. it would mean the uk joins a small group mean the ukjoins a small group of countries planning to ban the apes. new zealand, all announcing similar plans although new zealand has so far the only ones who have implemented them. australia has made tapes available only by prescription. china, which is the largest producer of e cigarettes
7:37 pm
introduce laws controlling their use introduce laws controlling their use in 2021, including banning flavour products that many chinese manufacturers continue to send overseas. the industry argues that banning disposable dates are to see people turn to the illegal vape market that is already booming. more than four and a half million were seized over the last 12 months. four times more than in 2022. joining to discuss this further is dr marina murphy — a spokesperson for the the uk vaping industry association — who is against the ban. thank you for being with us. there's so many statistics and i want to put a few to you because it will give us a few to you because it will give us a sense of how rigorous this band will be in making a difference against young people taking up vaping. 7.6% of ii to 17—year—olds now vape regularly or on occasion. if it wasn't for the health implications i be saying to you, congratulations, what an amazing industry for that you've created an industry for that you've created an industry out of nothing over a few years with up to these figures were

7:39 pm
they are breaking the laws that exist currently. inventing new laws is knocking to change that. somebody who breaks one law is going to have absolutely no problem breaking two or three more laws. i absolutely no problem breaking two or three more laws.— or three more laws. i understand that. or three more laws. i understand that- what _ or three more laws. i understand that. what many _ or three more laws. i understand that. what many will _ or three more laws. i understand that. what many will find - that. what many will find astonishing, you talk about disposable dates, those are the ones particularly smaller boxes and more of portable. —— the fates. they have cute names, blueberry sour, cotton candy, cherry cola. the government says they are the key driver behind the arrived two rising used vaping. i put it to you the industry knows exactly what it is doing and targeting young people as names, colours and afford to be like that. i disagree. i think the legitimate industry has tried hard to solve this problem. for a number of years have been going to the government saying things like let's put in place a registration game for

7:45 pm
today bull—fighting restarts it we're demonstrating peaceably, we don't want any more acts of this kind. we don't want animal torture. bull—fighting is still legal in many areas of mexico, which is one of the few countries that still allows the practice. according to humane society international, around 250,000 bulls are killed in bullfights globally each year. but those who run the bull fights say they'll continue the practice. live now to the bbc�*s marcos gonzalez in mexico city. why has it resumed? explain the legality because it's been claim and counterclaim. where are we right now is not the fight taking place last night. is not the fight taking place last niuht. �* ., , night. bull-fighting was forbidden here since june _ night. bull-fighting was forbidden here since june 2022 _ night. bull-fighting was forbidden here since june 2022 when - night. bull-fighting was forbidden here since june 2022 when a - night. bull-fighting was forbidden i here since june 2022 when a federal here sincejune 2022 when a federal judge ordered indefinite suspension. that was his answer to that complaint of animal rights activist group who considered the treatment of bulls was violating the right to

a healthy environment. of course later there were other groups who upheld the decision for them and last month the supreme court in mexico revoked that decision allowing again bull—fighting here in mexico city. however, it's important to say that the judge only ruled on the technical aspects. he didn't decide about the cases merits. probably, more than probably we're going to see along probably, more than probably we're going to see a long legal fight between supporters and opponents regarding this story. things could change in the future. you regarding this story. things could change in the future.— change in the future. you were sa in: , change in the future. you were saying. we _ change in the future. you were saying. we saw _ change in the future. you were saying, we saw the _ change in the future. you were saying, we saw the images - change in the future. you were | saying, we saw the images they change in the future. you were - saying, we saw the images they are the protesters at the ball five. but it wasn't enough to stop it going ahead. as you touched on they are there will be a long legal fight i had. who feels they have the upper hand in this battle?—

7:48 pm
she would be the the first native american woman to do so. she starred in martin scorsese's epic western saga killers of the flower moon, which has picked up ten nominations in all. our culture editor katie razzall has been talking with her. killers of the flower moon tells the true story of the systematic murder over years of dozens of members of the osage tribe. that's how you are. its lead, lily gladstone, has already won a golden globe and is the first native american ever nominated for a best actress oscar. 96 years of oscars. i'm grateful. it's about time. when i accepted the golden globe, that's the other thing that came to mind immediately is it's circumstantial that i was the first one to win that in the category, but it doesn't belong to me. i'm standing on so many shoulders. more than a century ago, the osage got rich after oil was struck on their land. lily's father recounted that history of vast wealth as she was growing up on the blackfeet reservation.
7:49 pm
i do remember him telling me about osages running out of gas and going and buying another rolls royce and, you know, just buying a new car. we're still warriors. but those riches brought a reign of terror. lily plays mollie burkhart, a real osage, whose mother and three sisters were murdered. he's not in good shape. she won't last. her husband, ernest, played by leonardo dicaprio, colluded with his powerful uncle here, robert de niro, to funnel the family's oil riches their way. this was supposed to a suicide, you dumbell. martin scorsese originally had an fbi investigator as the main character, but they realised his epic must come from the osage perspective. every aspect of the whole script changed because of osage contribution to it and was made the better for it. i've never seen a film like this before, and marty said recently several times he feels like this is the most important film he's ever made. lily was five when she decided she wanted to act. not seeing herself represented

on screen, it was all down to the ewoks in return of thejedi and these words from her parents when an ewok was killed. "oh, it's ok, honey, it's not real, it's an actor. " and i wasjust like, "oh, oh, so if i want to be an ewok, i need to become an actor!

responsibility. outside the court families express their anger. they said justice had not been served in nottingham two nottingham police have blood on her hands to failing to act earlier they spoke to the bbc. and we were grateful for their time. we've had a decent amount of time with them. i suppose what remains is the next steps that they are going to take. so i'm hopeful. what would you say? i think that we have been made, you know, promises to. and i think what we would like now is to see them through. we're never going to give up with some of the failings that have taken place. and we've made that very clear to everyone we met today. and i think the important thing is that what has started — in terms of a review initially takes course because it's a quick way of reporting, as we've been reassured. and then after that, if we're not satisfied, we've also reassured that if it takes an independent inquiry, then that is what will happen.
7:52 pm
so the prime minister did give us that assurance. but initially we wait for the outcome of the review and the other process that are going to happen acutely. and i think i think we need tojust see what comes out initially. and, you know, we've always been in this because we want improvements to be made. our children are, unfortunately not going to come back. but we also want people to be held accountable for what has gone wrong. and i think that's really, really important. you know, if something did go wrong, identify it and someone needs to be responsible for it. i think what we've made really abundantly clear is that we don't want to be rushed and we don't want to be hastened. and that's how we feel thus far, particularly with the cps and the police and the outcome last week. so it's probably too soon to say. but, you know, we will watch this space, i suppose. while hollywood was on strike people

7:56 pm
that's where we've had a lot of cloud. that cloud has been producing some really heavy rain, particularly across parts of northern england in the colder air well, something a little bit clearer overhead. and as we head through the nights, that area of cloud and increasingly patchy rain will swing away eastwards. and those clearer, colder conditions getting in across northern ireland and scotland. so a frost here, maybe some ice in places to start tuesday morning. but that will give way to actually quite a lot of sunshine and just the odd shower into western scotland. now england and wales, starting with a fair bit of cloud, the odd shower, maybe still some showers in eastern counties by the afternoon. but for the majority here, we will see some spells of sunshine, a little bit chillier than some of us have been used to recently. seven to 11 degrees. now through tuesday night and into wednesday it's all eyes to the northwest, this deepening area of low pressure. see all the isobars squeezing together here that shows that we're going to have a spell of really strong winds, particularly across scotland, gales widely, but in the far north, gusts of 80 miles per hour,
7:57 pm
particularly as this band of heavy, squally rain sinks south. that rain getting into northern ireland and northern england, another wet day over high ground, for example, in north west england to the south of that, mostly dry, fairly mild cold air to the south of that, mostly dry, fairly mild, colder behind our frontal system with some wintry showers for a time in the north of scotland. now, thursday looks like a quieter day, some spells of sunshine, although cloud will build across north western parts, rain into north west scotland. and that begins a push of really mild air for the end of the week. this warm front working across northern scotland on thursday night. behind it, a wedge of really very mild air indeed. that mild south west of the flow, also quite a moist southwesterly flow. so there will be more in the way of cloud as we look ahead to friday. but it is going to be exceptionally mild temperatures of 12 to 1a degrees. bye for now.
