at least on al-jazeera. and uninterrupted discussions. on. this al-jazeera. hello i'm adrian foot again this is the live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes a priest is seriously wounded in the french city of leone after being shot twice by an attacker who's on the run. reports of a lockdown across england as coronavirus cases in the u.k. pass a 1000000 we'll have a live update. president donald trump at his democratic rival joe biden rally supporters in battleground states days ahead of the presidential election.

john is. desperate scenes in turkey's izmir province as rescuers continue their frantic search for survivors following the earthquake that's killed dozens. of the original james bond sean connery has died we'll take a look at his extraordinary career. we begin though with that breaking news from france an orthodox priest has been shot and wounded in leone the priest was fired on twice as he was closing the church reportedly fled the scene that follows the killing of 3 people at a church in nice on thursday david chase is in nice he's with us now david took us through what we know of what happened earlier in.

yes this happened at the greek orthodox church in leo the priest was just closing the doors locking up when an assailant approached with a sawn off shotgun and let 2 shots off into his abdomen neighbors heard those explosions. and then they heard the screaming of the priest the assailant then ran away without saying anything to the priest the police moved in very quickly they had to treat the priest on the ground 1st they had to stem the bleeding then they have to stop the shock then they have to give him painkillers but keep in stable there until an ambulance arrived to take him to the hospital he's now in the hospital but the gunman and the sawn off shotgun still at large in the city of leon there's a huge police presence there now. all the streets around there looking seeking

out this warning people that he is dangerous that he could still launch another attack so a really alarming situation there in leon coming just 2 days or so after it tacked on the basilica behind me yet another christian symbol being attacked this david despite the fact that the country has raised its threat level. that's right what that means raising its threat level to urge and that's the top threat level here in france it's meant that they've put a lot more patrols on the street here around this priscilla i noticed this morning large reinforcements of police with assault rifles also on the breach probably not their own break just a few 100 yards or so away from here there were more patrols i saw army patrols as well now this is not just going on here in nice protectingly. churches and the

schools it's going on everywhere they're going to put more than $4000.00 more troops as part of operations onto the ground in patrols in france more police units just about everywhere they can because it's been promised that places of worship and schools anywhere where there are vulnerable people who might be attacked the police will do their very best to try and protect them but as we've seen in that's not an easy task just too many sites that could be attacked if they're going to be attacked and they are expecting more attacks it's a very tough a few days ahead both for the people of france and the security forces and its government observers david chaser reporting live from me stated many thanks indeed for protestors in pakistan's biggest city of bird effigies of france's president of mariel mccraw have been angry protests across several muslim countries after mccraw

and defended the right to mock religion and vowed to crack down on what he calls radical islam a rally in karate follow similar protests in the capital islamabad on friday and hundreds of people in ramallah in the west bank have joined the protests they chanted anti front french slogans thousands of people also took part in rallies in hebron in east jerusalem earlier in the week indonesia's president has condemned thursday's attack on the basilica in nice but as criticized president across recent statements in. indonesia strongly condemns the statement made by the french president who insults the religion of islam which has hurt the feelings of muslims around the world this could divide the unity between religious communities worldwide when the world needs to be united in the fight against covert 19. associating religion with an act of terrorism is a big mistake terrorism and terrorist have nothing to do with any religion earlier

president mccraw sat down with al-jazeera to discuss the wave of anger he says but the radical islam he's trying to fight is a threat to all people especially muslims. horney sentiments and even i understand the sentiments being expressed and i respect them but you must understand my role right now it's to do 2 things to promote calm and also to protect these rights because when you click the causal me what i want to say is very clear that today in the world there are people who distort islam and in the name of this religion that they claim to defend they kill they slaughter they make speeches justifying a kind of expulsion of human groups from the world today there is violence practiced by some extremist movements and individuals in the name of islam of course this is a problem for islam because muslims are the 1st victims and as i mentioned before more than 80 percent of the victims of terrorism are muslims and this is a problem for all of us coronavirus cases in the united kingdom have surpassed a 1000000 there are reports in the british media that

a new locked out across england is on its way prime minister boris johnson is due to address the nation in the coming hour let's go live to london now serious need. for a so the u.k. has joined the ranks of some of its neighbors in reporting more than a 1000000 corona virus infections what about these these rumors these reports in the media that at least for england there's to be and another lockdown. well it looks almost certain that the british prime minister is about to announce a spectacular u. turn on the government's strategy for dealing with the rapidly increasing rate of the coronavirus virus across the entire country we believe about 83730 minutes time he will announce a month long lockdown that will come into force on thursday and will last until december the 2nd it will mean the closure of all non-essential shops but perhaps a glimmer of hope for parents who will now be able to still send their children off

to school and nursery universities will stay open as well u.-turn because this is exactly what the government said it did not want to happen but it's confronted with some very serious figures by the chief scientific adviser on friday boris johnson has basically had his his hand forced because according to those figures there could be as many as 4000 deaths a day if the virus is allowed to continue escalating at this rate and there are warnings to the peak of the 2nd wave could be one and a half times higher than the 1st wave the government also being forced to act because all of this information was leaked by several newspapers on friday night and has the message basically been spreading rapidly over the course of the day we were expecting a press conference at 4 o'clock that's been pushed back to 5 and now 630 clearly an awful lot of action behind the scenes to come up with a watertight plan need barker reporting live from london need many thanks indeed

will the prime minister john had hoped that a new test and trace system would have eased the crisis by now but it's been performing at an all time low a senior clinician has told al-jazeera the mismanagement is to blame and to simmons' reports from the north of england. to control. testing and tracing must become a new way of life testing and tracing cost $51.00 half $1000000000.00 to set up 40 management consultants who are paid up to $9000.00 a day to make it work what are they doing what are they doing would they like to come and sit with a few clinical case workers this caltech traits or an experience clinician says mismanagement or dunder staffing are among the litany of issues she faces so much rested on test and trace do you think it's failed it's increasingly failing. we don't get to people quickly enough it needs to be within 24 hours ideally

by the time where we're calling people is 5 days since their positive test i do sometimes think what's the point it's the fragmentation between the cases being passed from ours to public health local teams and back again it would be far better if we were more. and with record infection rate increases the number of people who aren't self isolating is rising too is spending their own money and contact less than 60 percent of contacts of coronavirus cases and all of those people contacted we found a great many i'm not actually self isolating and the reason is they can't afford to because a lot of people on low incomes are 0 hours contracts actually are not going to be getting the money they need each week to actually put food on the table the n.h.s. coded $1000.00 and there's another issue it is the much heralded is causing

frustration with high numbers of false alarms and this is the one of the major issues is that you can check in with it but you can't check out i registered in a cafe in manchester more than 12 hours ago i'm now in a different city but the app still has me there and if you look at the data log i'm in the cafe right up until midnight the only way to change that is to check in to another venue but if i was going home then that app would still have me in the manchester café the absence of an anonymous alert to anyone who may be at risk its main feature is bluetooth scanning linking to other phones but that can cause even more false alarms what you're basically trying to do with the tracing now is simply get lots of people self isolated but then you get a little sense of problem because people realise that all that running an app is going to do is to ask them to repeatedly self isolate when there isn't actually a good reason to do so the u.k.'s prime minister burress johnson promised world

beating testing and tracing it's nothing like that of the pandemic in europe is threatening a longer more deadly peak than in the spring and drew simmons eye which is iran north of england. well countries across europe are trying to contain the rapid rise in the number of corona virus infections poland has recorded nearly 22000 new daily cases and austria has announced a month long night time curfew greece has become the latest european country to improve widespread restrictions privatise to carry out course lots of talk is says that most bars and restaurants will have to close through november at a nighttime curfew will also be expanded. this is that he's off from up 0 still to come on the program with just 3 days before one of the most divisive u.s. elections in history will look at the issue of race after a summer of discontent plus and century allegations on media accuses azerbaijan of

using white phosphorous a civilian area but in sports talk to the ugandan world champion who's looking to win more gold is far right here with that and the rest of the day's action little days. with 3 days to go before the u.s. election the candidates are focusing on battleground states president trump is holding 4 rallies in pennsylvania a state he won by less than one percent and 2016 his democratic rival joe biden is due to speak alongside former president barack obama in michigan the democrats lost the state by just north point 3 percent in the last election we have correspondents following the presidential contenders in the final leg of their campaigns john hendren is standing by for us in flint michigan where president obama to campaign

later but will 1st go to kimberly how could his in reading in pennsylvania where president trump is addressing supporters believe the final weekend that it's making a big push in pennsylvania why is the state so important. it's so important for a campaign particularly given the fact that it has typically been democratic leaning state but in 26 that changed. only won this state and he's counting on doing it again now the polls are not in his favor right now his leading or rather is trailing and joe biden by 5 percentage points so he's investing heavily in this state as you point out he's making 4 stops just to. you'll be traveling to the state again tomorrow and then again on monday now in terms of why the state is important it's a handful of one of a handful of battleground states that ultimately could decide this election so donald trump is hitting this hard he's going to be talking about

a couple of issues that matter to voters in the state about an hour outside philadelphia where there's been rioting and looting following a police shooting this week so he's going to be hammering down in his law and order message he's also going to be talking about fracking the process of drilling for natural gas a big economic driver in the state and delivers a lot of jobs * and joe biden has said he at one point that he would ban fracking as part of his energy platform only to change his position so expect i will try to highlight that as well but again he's trailing in the polls still his supporters here say they are absolutely adamant that donald trump is going to win this battleground state. i think there's a lot of hidden trump. voters that frankly are afraid to come out here for a bit of their houses burn down their stores leave it to earn their ice breaker they think there's a lot of people that are concerned about the fracking and the fossil fuels and the

jobs and i think trump has been doing a great job bringing the economy back going back once i think will bring it back again and it's doing a great job and to tell you this why we're in the polls with the news we hear that it's close. really i mean i remember election day of 4 years ago universally the pressure across the board was saying there was a 97 percent chance to hillary would win. be humiliated the most recent down to 3 history both didn't have the i mean i have been through this is my 45th row as a regular 45. now donald trump is expected to take the stage behind me in the next half hour or so he. it's trailing in the polls as i mentioned but in terms of enthusiasm one state poll here has him far i head of joe biden another factoid in this state only one in 3 voters have cast their ballots so

far despite the early voting surge across the rest of the country so trump is counting on those voters that have not yet gone to the polls to cast their ballots for him once again in a state that ultimately could help decide the 2020 u.s. election. reporting live from reading pennsylvania let's go to flint michigan john hendren is for us john explain why michigan is so important in this race. michigan is critical in this election more so directly for donald trump than for joe biden in the sense that according to polls biden has many different routes to victory could lose michigan but for trump if he were to lose michigan he would have to make up for it in another state he so narrowly won the 2016 election and the state that he won most narrowly was right here in michigan 510000 votes at 0.2 percentage points and he's had some obstacles to deal with they've got

a nasty 2nd wave of the coronavirus breaking here in michigan and then here in flint you've had the flint water crisis where they had a lead in their water they a lot of people here in this largely democratic african-american town were upset that their government the republican governor of michigan did not respond adequately to that and that they got little federal help as well over the years in the trumpet ministrations so there is reason for people to come out and activity here but michigan is a critical state it's part of that blue wall that used to be democratic states but flipped over and over and over for trump you were talking about pennsylvania earlier there's michigan and wisconsin as well and neighboring ohio all of them went for trump and most. of them by upsets he was not expected to win any of these states so if biden can deny michigan then he's already doing pretty well all he has to do is perform nearly as well as his polls are showing in other states but right

now this is a race with about 6 percentage points between those 2 candidates right now biden is ahead but there is some concern that some so-called voters aren't showing up in the polls but they might show up on election day. john hendren live in flint michigan many thanks john the question of law and order has been one of the central themes of this year's presidential election campaign and it matters more than ever following a summer of discontent and those protests against police brutality and systemic racism al-jazeera as mike hanna reports now from wilmington delaware. in the u.s. it's been a year of living dangerously particularly for african americans who have disproportionately borne the brunt of the coronavirus pandemic and who have been likely to be victims of police action that their white fellow citizens. the killing of george floyd just one case of brutality that galvanized protesters across the nation people of all

colors banding together under the umbrella of the black lives and. one candidate to brace the movement in all its full. the other rejected it. many of those who are spreading violence in our cities are supporters of an organization called the black lives matter b.l.o. . los. it's really it's really hurting the black community to the black the president of the united states some african american conservatives who share the support in get that at the white house at the presidency but taishan wearing blue to show their support to the police and the signature red caps to show the support of the president there are people all around the country that support this president because he supports a law and order it's that simple and some insists that the white crowds that double

trumps rallies did not show the whole picture. a lot of blacks support and want to support and will support and vote for president dollar truong but they don't want to be called a sellout by you in favor of law and order i'm in favor of law you follow he went to be able to do more in order to have somebody who has no friends or lot in front of all these ordinances a lot of other lot and your in order with justice where people get treated fairly and biden contends that the president is a source of the very violent people poults to condemn fires are burning we have a president who fanned the flames rather than fighting the flames but we must not burn we have to build this president long ago forfeited a moral leadership in this country he can't stop the violence because for years he's formatted. bidens indorsement is not unconditional

writing is not protesting lutein is not protesting setting fires is not protesting . none of this is protest it's lawlessness plain and simple. the black lives matter movement has been the single most powerful invisible force during this election year the question only the result at the polls will answer is whether this energy is translated into affecting political as well as social change . mike hanna al jazeera wilmington delaware turkey's president of earth or one is jews who arrive in izmir as rescue workers there continue their search for survivors following the powerful earthquake the number of people dead has now risen to 37 more than 100 people have been pulled alive from the rubble so far but time is running out as all to 07 consumer reports from izmir. this is the aftermath

of the magnitude 7.0 earthquake. many buildings and it is where province collapse within seconds killing dozens of people and injuring hundreds of others were buried alive. this woman was pulled out of the rubble 17 hours after the earthquake. there are similar stories throughout our province. here a mother waits nervously near a collapsed building a shopping rescue teams find her missing daughter she says she was working at a dental clinic when to earthquakes struck the hood i don't know until the dentist had a couple of workers with him maybe she's there we're waiting willing we will have good news most of the collapsed buildings were apartment blocks is that were built or looked right in my nieces my uncles my grandmother and my family lives here including my daughter several families live here and we're waiting hopelessly.

we're told the concrete and i don't call ins in this building are very weak despite the structure being green force 4 years ago it's been less than 24 hours since the earthquake which gives some hope to the victims spell milly's but the longer the search goes on the more difficult it's will be to find anyone alive. there have been more than 470 aftershocks since friday's earthquake people in this region of turkey and in nearby greek islands have been to warrant this could bring further damage. the turkish red crescent has sent tents boats and food to the region but the pandemic and the need for social distancing could add yet another challenge to this disaster. al-jazeera is western turkey at least $21.00 people have been killed in an attack in the eastern democratic republic of congo the attack which was attributed to an armed ugandan group happened in north kivu

province attacks on civilians have increased since the military launched an operation in 2019 against the a.d.f. rebels more than 1300 people have been killed by armed groups in the 1st 6 months of this year food supply encountered in ivory coast's presidential election although somewhat top up is seeking a controversial thought opponents are calling for a campaign of civil disobedience more than 30 people were killed in the run up to the election but observers say the polling day has been largely peaceful address as the latest for us from. well in many parts of ivory coast the 40 have been been largely peaceful president alassane ouattara voted few hours ago and immediately after he said he's proud of let this country to its current democratic status and warned that. the process should not be destructive he was in particular

referring to opposition leaders who called for a boycott and disruptions of the electoral process he said would not be nice what i want to ivory coast needs now is peace he particularly drew the attention of the youth and asked them not to be manipulated but that is not to say that the election went on peacefully throughout ivory coast there were at least a dozen incidents recorded across the country this might was confronted by the election commission which said the commission has made some remarkable progress in addressing some of the issues at stake some of the items or places election places that have been destroyed so basically it's been progressing largely peaceful in many parts of ivory coast but again there are incidents recorded as expected because of the call for by court for boy court as well as campaign of civil disobedience as demanded by some opposition leaders a weather update next here on our syria then iraqi security forces reopened the

square at the epicenter of a year of anti-government demonstrations will get reaction from baghdad and in sport will tell you about the major league baseball manager who's getting a 2nd chance after cheating scandal almost ruined his career. hello the weather remains slushy fine unsettled across a good part of the middle east we have seen some cloud and right operand turkey bring some big down pulls in here a little bit of wet weather on the cards too just around the levant but which is not faring too bad perhaps a touch below the average for some few spots so shabby right in there as you can see just across the eastern side of the mediterranean down towards the sinai peninsula maybe even into the far north of saudi arabia could see a bit of wet weather but the west the weather is up around the black sea making its

way a little further race with so armenia georgia azerbaijan could see some showers as we go through the next couple days you might even catch a shower water into the fall northwest all of iran south of that is generally fired interac. 31 celsius that we present sunshine over the next few days in light waves it really will feel very pleasant and they feel quite a pleasant across central parts of africa without the usual showers in play here as they should be short rains there just around kenya pushing across into tanzania so what's the weather for a time to into somalia and not just some very heavy rain into the eastern side of south africa that is likely to bring some localized flooding a little bit of destruction as we go through the next couple of days and it's set to linger. but. now it's going 5 go drive to would like to if it's not

you don't learn about it's not something else happened on august night. just 18 year old michael brown was going to put one responsible person it's really me i saw my son in 15. years that i mentor. and i feel like you know at this my time to stand.

'd 300 who say.

it is good to have you with us hello adrian fed again here in doha but the news hour from now 0 of the headlines a priest has been shot and wounded at the french city of leone it's hakka has escaped it follows 3 killing the killing of 3 people at a church in tunis thursday. the number of people killed by a powerful earthquake affecting turkey has risen to 39 rescuers are still searching for survivors in the worst hit city is mia more than a 100 people have been pulled alive from the rubble. coronavirus cases in the u.k. have supposed a 1000000 the government is considering a national lockdown at least in england prime minister boris johnson is to to speak imminently and. armenia is accusing azerbaijan of using volatile white phosphorous

munitions in a go no kind of back and this tree of foreign affairs released this video saying that civilian areas a nearby white phosphorous is an incendiary weapon its use is restricted under international law the fire that it causes is difficult to extinguish it sticks the flesh making it's more severe. on me as prime minister has asked russia for help and its conflict with azerbaijan as ery forces have made advances toward some locations in the disputed no going to cut back region after talks in geneva on the collapse of a 3rd ceasefire the 2 countries have agreed not to deliberately target civilian populations zeros rory chalons has been following the latest developments from yet of a. nickel pressure on the prime minister's office you can see across the square behind me. suite it out earlier today that despite the agreement reached not to target civilians and civilian infrastructure since the early morning azerbaijan has

resumed its bombing of shushi and the panic at the azerbaijan leadership he said is not capable of fulfilling its own commitments and the civilians of new going to care about are his main enemy and target now he was referring to the fact that just yesterday on friday both these sides pledged not to target civilian populations and he's saying that that is exactly what the azerbaijanis have done the armies of also released a couple of video seemingly show the use of white phosphorus and incendiary munition that sends out burning lumps of white chemical full down causing horrendous injuries to anyone who is underneath restricted under international law and he says that the azerbaijanis have been using this against targets in the go on our camera back where there are civilians presence now yes by john or thora jesus said that is absolutely not the case that they don't even possess such weaponry which is

a restricted to international law we know that's not really the case though because both of these sides have been using cluster munitions are also restricted under international law and both these sides have been bombing civilian targets with those in the last few weeks al-jazeera. reports not from baku in azerbaijan. well the answer is have said right from the beginning then those accusations were groundless and now just a few minutes ago. and senior aide to president who have only ever has actually tweeted that i mean your rider has use this white phosphorus in deluded in the woods in the town of show which their minions repro to eschew shia and rory was just talking. now earlier in the day the ministry of defense also said that it had intelligence that had moved white

phosphorus. with. now accusations have been going in both directions about who is doing what and who is actually breaking international law. by johnny point of view. there have been targeted. attack was in. 21 people. in the human rights watch issued a statement on. cluster bomblets attack. using exactly the same. something that. when it comes to. about 91 people killed in the attack in. that happened

a few weeks ago the crisis in the going to impact of the election campaign in neighboring georgia voting and did a few hours ago the ruling party there is claiming victory exit polls suggest that the progressive georgian dream policy which leads the current coalition government is ahead with 55 percent of the vote. iraqi security forces of reopened republic bridge and cleared tahrir square in the capital baghdad protesters have been camped out for over a year demanding the top politicians step down at least $24.00 people were arrested during the clear us. reports. underneath baghdad's freedom monument a bulldozer delivers the final blow to iraq's besieged protest movement on saturday morning security forces entered liberation square for the 1st time since large scale anti-government demonstrations began

a year ago they ordered the removal of all remaining tents and searched the entire area 24 people were arrested during the operation. the peaceful protesters reported some gangster to security forces who targeted them in the protesters and who were engaged in drugs kidnapping and stealing the commander says the operation was carried out in cooperation with protesters. after the 1st anniversary on october 25th many of the peaceful protesters are the majority didn't accept the behavior of the infiltrators who were hitting the security forces with hand grenades and petrol bombs. but some protesters feel they have been tricked they had agreed to open the roads and arrest those responsible for the violence but not to end the sit in. so why didn't they arrest him from the beginning to get by just clean and peaceful people here just one of a dignified life. only

a few dozen demonstrators had been left in the square in recent months the crowds had gradually dwindled as targeted killings arbitrary arrests attempts by parties to hijack the movement and the coronavirus pandemic took their toll none of those left had the energy or will to resist they had spent months calling for an end to corruption unemployment and lack of services. many people. but there has been no change we didn't get any solution for our homeland so we decided to remove our tents it's better than losing more protesters. government officials toured the square to take stock after what they see as a successful operation crediting their reforms for the lack of resistance among protesters and. it was clear that the current government and the prime minister are heading in the right direction to fulfill all the nats and demoing superfast formation of the new government and early election of the general atmosphere is that people decided to give the government space to work to complete the remaining

demands. the republican bridge once the main front line where protesters and security forces faced off as recently as a few days ago was the last bridge in baghdad to be reopened signaling the return of normal life to the capital the clearing operation on saturday morning appears to mark the end of the protest movement here in tahrir square the main avenue left for demonstrators to achieve their demands is to organize for early elections scheduled for june 2021 so i want to hold in al-jazeera about former james bond actor sean connery has died at the age of 90 a scottish actor was the 1st to play the character 7 and 962 looks back at his life and career it was in the 1962 spy thriller doc to know that sean connery 1st also had one of cinema's most famous minds. bond.

james bond a role that would change his life he said bringing to life the story of the british spy double 07 was reciprocal how important was during bond in the development of sean connery. obviously very important because of the. worldwide attention that you want to track one on to another market bracket all the other accolades. connery played james bond in 7 films spanning more than 2 decades his lust was in never say never again in 1983 determined not to be typecast he saw different roles going on to win an academy awards 2 bafta and 3 golden globes. connery 1st met queen elizabeth at the premiere of you only live twice in 196733 years later she knighted him for his services to film he called it one of the proudest days of his life and remarkable career sean connery was the nearest i

would say the scottish have to 2021st century matters and national hero people thought they could relate to him i mean he grew up in edinburgh tell me he was in the navy he was a war he came up the hard way and you can play rough tough role brilliantly. connery lived the highs and lows of the bond character profiting from his popularity and later scrutinized for some of calling his character his 60 attitude towards women it wasn't helped when connery told american journalist barbara walters women sometimes deserve to be slapped and i think his portrayal of james bond was a sense of the suddenness tick dinosaur to quote judi dench as a mean one of the such bond films later in life he supported the scottish national party and publicly advocated for the scottish independence we have waited. nearly

300 years. my hope is that it will evolve with dignity and integrity was his enduring contribution to scotland culture and film transformed him into a national hero connery had tried to distance himself from the role that made him famous but for millions of fans around the world he'll be remembered as the suave agent double 07 with a license to kill caroline foster's an entertainment journalist she joins us now live via skype from london carol i suppose for many people connery is the definitive double 070 yes so across the world up close 7 fans for years have waged their most unfun love battle which is deciding neath a which i was born and pretty much the majority vote over and over again comes down to so sean connery the 3rd and arguably the best i think although the others

subsequent james bond that is have their own stamp on it certainly with his combination of wit sort of like an unsecure thing charm and certainly that's when clooney i and of course the raised eyebrow he's certainly set the standard very very high in those 1st of no 7 films i suppose for many people in scotland he was also the definitive scotsman. this is interesting isn't it because for many decades now he's actually lived far away on the other side of the globe and yet for such as you say for so many that he is that definitive highlander of course he appeared in the film highlander which did him no harm at all and he did champion the scottish pursuit of independence in recent years so today we've had tributes from the political parties in scotland sorting about that i think for them he is just a home boy made good as your contributor said he grew up he was a working class lad he basically he he what he was a milkman he did all sorts of things he had a hinterland he had a history before he hit the big screen he had a wonderful physique and he had

a charm and seemed to know very much his own minds the good and the bad but as we were hearing attitude to women his legacy will be somewhat complicated won't it yes in recent years i think particularly women have been far quicker to call certain stars male stars to account for how they are perceived and certainly he did himself no favors in that regard but one could argue he was just saying what he thought obviously not many women will agree with that but i would say that the onus is on other people to judge him as i mean in a way it's quite sort of risks one hasn't. quite he just seems to have some gumption to actually say it although certainly those attitudes although they made it may have made him a man's man a man that women wanted to be with and men wanted to be in years gone by certainly some of those views are no longer quite in the fashion they were when he started to announcing he was a very successful actor but was he

a good actor. oh my goodness well that battle is another one of the double o. 7 fans i think he would be the 1st to say he was somewhat typecast by the success and by the iconic of big of double 07 and and what it's hatch to it did certainly limits him in the years since i mean did he can he spends a lot of time on the golf course that brought him a lot of money it was my loss of success and popularity across the globe that won't be a public you know a restaurant owner in the land who wouldn't have given him up a table but whether he was a good actor or not i think the jury will have to remain out because we didn't really see him in other stuff sufficiently he won an oscar in 1907 floor of the untouchables he was charming in robin hood things of the we've seen him over and over again but there was always enough of sean connery to keep his fans happy now whether that's the at the market a good actor or just a huge film superstar i guess we'll just have to keep debating really good store to caroline many thanks indeed caroline for us there in london india has deployed more

security forces to sort ago in the main city of the main city rather in india that minister of kashmir separatists there have called for a protest after the government said the people from other areas could buy land in the disputed region of course say that that's an infringement on their rights and fear that it could be a way to rid the region of its muslim majority leader harding reports. businesses are shut down armed police stand guard separatists in indian administered kashmir have called for a complete shut down in northern john more in kashmir territory and protest against a new landmark in the himalayan region earlier this month the government in new delhi amended a law in general and kashmir allowing indians from other regions to buy land in the disputed territory. on this one he grew up in this region and says the new law is another challenge for people in kashmir these are uncertain times and and most of the people and depressed because of it i mean it's it's taking

a toll on on everyone's mind. because every day of. every day. i mean. and and all of these all of these things they get accumulators. the kashmiris fear the new law could lead to a land grab to change the muslim majority character of the region the misconduct and we have assembled in a protest day here today announced a new law as a multitude of these laws is to snatch the results is from the people of jammu and kashmir. until recently the region enjoyed a special status guaranteed by the indian constitution which allowed it to make its own rules about permanent residency and land ownership. but in august of last year prime minister narendra modi's government scrapped the region's autonomy effectively annex in the territory displayed just that decision led to widespread

anger and protests across the region the government says the changes will help and the area's economy. laws are game changing and would benefit displace this region particularly valuable beings under winter for 6 months crippling its economy and jobs the local administration also he's a shortage of resources these laws will be before the new industries and generate new jobs and we'll have the local economy. just this week 3 indian politicians from the government party were shot and killed once again highlighting the tense situation in the region modi's government has said uniformity in rules and governance will bring development to indian administered kashmir. but many kashmiris insist the region must have its autonomy and right. to determine its features. al-jazeera. a u.s. judge has blocked the trumpet ministrations ban on popular chinese owned video sharing up to talk sort of government restrictions were due to come into effect on

nov 12th president trump says the talk is a security threat because it's chinese ownership 3 u.s. uses that filed a lawsuit challenging the ban china's leaders say they must seize the opportunity of the century to be the front in the front row of the world's major powers the message came out in a rare meeting of china's most powerful politicians the pollen reports while most of the world is struggling to overcome the kerner virus outbreak china has signaled that the country is well on its way to full recovery and the government's actions in recent months have set the stage for chinese ambitions across the globe china's foreign policy has taken addresses. interrupting that report to go live to london prime minister boris johnson about to address the nation let's listen and i can assure you i wouldn't do this unless it was absolutely necessary but 1st i'm going to hand over to chris and then to patrick who present the latest data. thank you dr

minister 1st i please. this is a version of a slide that listeners and watchers may have seen several times before but as you can see the weekly case rate for coded which is in the darker colors mean that the numbers or worse it's spreading steadily it was quite heavily concentrated in particular areas and it is now over quite a large part of the country on the left and on the right you can see the rate of change anything in brown or yellow the rate is increasing the darker the color the more record the rate of increase and again across virtually the entire country now there is a significant rate of increase next slide please. the the thing which correlates most with future n.h.s. capacity and n.h.s. activity from coded is the sprayed in people over the age of 60 although people

younger than that can certainly get severe coded and some of them may need hospitalization and indeed intensive care the majority of the disease that causes really severe disease is in that age group and as you can see that's a smaller area but again that his widened vary considerably and he's going up across the country thanks like please data from the n.s.a. off the office for national statistics which is the official data which is done as a survey across the country shows that the prevalence of this disease has been going up extremely rapidly over the last few weeks having been very flat due to the work of everybody in the country over spring and summer. and we now have around $50000.00 new cases a day and that is rising. next slide please. if you look around the

country. thanks to the work that everyone is still doing the r. is substantially lower than it would have been if people were not doing the social distancing we're not doing all the things in families in firms around the country it would be going up much more rapidly images at the moment but there is an increase in virtually every part of the country apart possibly from the northeast where they have been been taking additional measures stanch of additional measures and there is some evidence of some flattening but not yet of any evidence of the coronavirus falling and that is important because it is now quite a high level and if things went wrong the route the margin of error is very very small we have very little headroom even in the one area where there is some flattening at the moment so things are going up across the whole country next slide please. and it's probably important to think about this in terms

of ages these heat maps go from left to right over time so the the right is the most recent and from bottom which is children under the age of 16 up to top which is people over 60 and as you can see what happens in every area is that the the it gets darker meaning there's more cases all the way through the period we're looking at and it steadily moves up the ages so it doesn't remain constrained just to one age group and the top line is beginning to darken in every part of the country and those are the people over 60 who is a say will translate over time into some cases in going to the n.h.s. next slide please. and we're now beginning to see this this is moving over to n.h.s. activity we're beginning to see this with the rise in the number of hospital admissions in england by age group and this is just looking at people of different age groups

the reason a rise in virtually every age group in older adults basically anyone over the age of 45 the age of the there's a rise in number of people going into hospital with code that over time and this is obviously going up not in a straight line but in a in an accelerating line next slide please. if we compare the number of people in hospital at this moment with the 1st peak of cope with these are n.h.s. people in n.h.s. beds in england by n.h.s. region currently only in the north west is this coming close to the peak that we previously had but it is increasing in every area and if we do nothing the would be what would the inevitable result will ease is that these numbers will go up and they will eventually exceed the peak that we saw in spring of this year next

slide please and therefore if you look at the n.h.s. as a whole inpatient beds dark blue is august light blue september and purple is october you can see it was still falling in august and september initially flat and then a very gradual increase in numbers but now it is going up steadily on an exponential curve next slide please. looking at individual hospitals has hospitals these are some hospital these are the hospitals with more than 100 coded in patients in them this this number will increase over the next weeks and in green of the hospitals which have got below half of their previous peak in orange is the point where they actually get to half the number of people in hospital they had a coded peak and in red is where they exceed the number of hospital in patients they had at the peak of the 1st wave of this and as you can see the progression is

steady and we now have several hospitals with more in patients with cobra than we had during the peak in spring next slide please. fortunately the death rate although rising is still significantly below the peak but the the mortalities rate the death rate will track the number of people going into the n.h.s. over time with a significant delay and we're seeing increases now that are quite noticeable in the north west yorkshire and humber in the northeast and increasingly in the millions as well but the other areas will follow because they will follow the n.h.s. admissions so that all the data in terms of looking backwards those data are those have already happened patrick is now going to talk briefly about the projections forwards thank you kind of the 1st light please so just to recap at the moment. these are 3 different ways of looking at it from different studies all the

consensus group from the modelers the number of people every day with coded catching new and its $50000.00 plus most likely is the number and perhaps half a 1000000 people or more overall with the disease next slide please. the op was relatively flat and below one below the red line means the epidemic is shrinking above the red line means it's growing and you can see from august on words the r. went above one the epidemic grew and continues to grow so will though some of the measures that are in place have eased off perhaps the rate of growth is still growing and that growth from a high baseline means numbers get very big quite quickly because of this continued of above one the modeling group asked a number of academic groups to create scenarios as to what might happen on

assumptions that are stays above one and goes between 1.31.5 and possibly up over the course of the winter and the next slide shows the early working from 2 weeks ago of some of those groups looking at deaths in england over the winter period. so this is early work scenarios looking at this on the assumptions of all different groups and as you can say see different groups come up with different depending on their models but what is clear from all of them in terms of deaths over the winter there's the potential for this to be twice as bad or more in terms of the 1st way compared to the 1st wave so the models are clearly showing that this could be the case in these scenarios that presented here. i want to move though from scenarios to now looking at the 6 week projections which are more based on data now and have greater certainty than you can ever get when you're looking

months ahead this shows the hospital daily admissions you can see the 1st peak on the left hand side and then over to the right hand side you come up to date today and then the projections forward over the next 6 weeks and this is a consensus view across a number of modeling groups and what you can see here is a projection that over the next 6 weeks into early december the numbers exceed the numbers of hospitalizations in the 1st wave peak and it's chris is already said in some hospitals you see that already but this suggests across the country as a whole we would see this some hospitals earlier than others some of it later but this is the projection in terms of hospital admissions over the next 6 weeks with the uncertainties in the shaded blue area next line please. inevitably hospitalisations lead unfortunately to deaths in some people again you can see the

1st wave on the left hand side and the dotted line indicates the top of the 1st wave and on the right hand side you can see the projection from today going forward in the blue and again the light blue indicates the uncertainty range but what you can see is the model suggest increasing models this is a consensus across models suggest increasing deaths over the next 6 weeks so that the by the beginning of december the 8th of december this is very close to the 1st wave peak if nothing is done now clearly if you stop the from increasing if you allow the all to come down then you would flatten this off and then potentially reverse it but on the current trajectory that is what is thought to be the prediction for death over the next next 6 weeks and of course that would continue to go up because the hospitalizations already exceeded the 1st wave peak by this time deaths would follow so unfortunate

a very grim picture in terms of what this looks like in the absence of action and continued growth next lied please this is a complicated slide from the n.h.s. and it shows what the impact of this would be on n.h.s. beds on the left hand side is acute hospital beds and on the right hand side is ventilator beds it's the same curve you've just seen for the 1st peak on the left and then the projection on the right so the projections that i've just shown you lead when the n.h.s. do their bed calculations as peak usage being exceeded on the 20th of november that's obviously not a precise estimate where this would fall on average that the extra available beds would then be exceeded a couple of days later 3 days later and then extra capacity caused by having to perspiring.
