so i decided to make my home out of poems. what if a black girl knew that life is what you make of it, opportunities are what you take from it and there will be no female black president if no black girl wants to become it? what is the difference between conventional poetry and spoken word poetry? it's different to actual like written poetry, because written poetry, you can go away and read it, you have time to digest it. with this there is more of a performance stance on it. i am no stranger to the look, to the taste and to the feel of danger. i am no stranger to fire, water or air, to the slippery slope, die in hope, hangman‘s rope, new birth by old generation of cavemen, caved in, minds enslaved in time unchanged and i am no stranger to your skin. and on those wet, windy, rainy nights when those clouds open up, how it feels when that rain strike. dylema is not the only one. across the country, people are taking to the stage, confronting their deepest feelings or sharing difficult opinions. it's just so amazing to see that now

we are having platforms all across the uk to actually, you know, be on a stage and say our truth. people who are the bravest to say it and to deliver it in a way that is entertaining, it's striking, and it connects, those are the people who are my favourite poets. so for future reference, i am you and you are me and that's all we need to know. thank you. our reporter izin akhabau talking to the spoken word poet dylema. newsnight is coming up on bbc two. here's evan. is it possible we will be taking holidays in saudi arabia before long on its red sea coast? it sounds far—fetched but it's actually the vision of the saudi crown prince. he is keen on reform. we'll ask if the ultraconservative state really can transform itself. join me now on bbc two. here on bbc one it's time for the news where you are.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. hello, this is sport today, live from the bbc sport centre. coming up on this programme. coming up, this man. i was devastated. it really, really deeply upset me. a top—level club, searching for a new manager, as rangers sack caixhina. and this time, it is for good as hinkley point retires from tennis for a third time. hello and welcome. after criticism of its handling of the discrimination case against mark sampson, the fa were in the firing

line again. this time from andy woodward, the former footballer who helped expose the scale of the scandal in football. greg clark spoke about a victim crying like a baby. woodward felt such a comment from the head of the fa was unacceptable and upsetting. i was devastated. i will not lie. it was deep,ly, deeply, upsetting. it was deep,ly, deeply, upsetting. it was a confident shall meeting between myself and two other members of the fa with gregg and two other members in the room. ifelt let down. i contacted the fa when i had seen down. i contacted the fa when i had seen it from a response from them but i didn't receive one. it must have been disappointing?m was upsetting but he has contacted me since. and sincerely apologised for what he said. what was said in that conversation?

how did you come away from it? what was said in that conversation? how did you come away from mm was positive. he said he is willing to meet me in the next few weeks when he is available. so i hope it has a positive outcome from that meeting. what would you want to a achieve from the meeting next month?” what would you want to a achieve from the meeting next month? i want to sit down. i said this 11 months ago. i have a pure vision to make a change for the future of the football industry. it is about children, this. our next generation. i want to make that positive change. i have all of the tools and the professional people behind me willing to sit down. as i said in the interview, this is about the future of football and like—minded people like myself who have gone through this experience in life, are perfect people to make this positive change for the future and we know what's needed. we know how to make that happen.

andy woodward speaking to katie gordon brownal. the fa did not wish to respond to the comments but today, greg clark admitted that the organisation had lost the public‘s trust over its handling of the discriminatory remarks made by the former women's coach, mark sampson. we have this report. we have this report. we don't know the tone of the speech. obviously cameras are not allowed in there. there are no recording but we got a copy from the speech. from the words on the page it seem there is is a full mea culpa from greg clark, admitting that the words he use paula radcliffe wrong. he described racism claims as fluff, something that he retracted but by then the damage was done. so the two m essa 9 es then the damage was done. so the two messages he wanted to deliver, firstly he wants the fa to be a more simple organisation, the other thing

he said that is vital for the fa to do is to become more reflective of the football community that it serves. richard conway reporting. his was a managial reign that lasted 26 games. pedro caixhina. his last match in charge last night against kilmarnock, i—i. arsene wenger says that the arsenal board is to review his position as manager at the end of the season, despite signing a two—year extension in the summer. he said talks would ta ke in the summer. he said talks would take place when this campaign concludes, stating he wanted to see what the board thinks of his performance. bristol city have been drawn against

manchester united in the carabao cup. arsenal are to face west ham, leicester city at home to manchester city and chelsea take on bournemouth. worth pointing out that a the draw was delayed for up to two hours because of technical problems. it was meant to be broadcast live on twitter. rugby, and joe marler will be available for the second match of the international series. and rfu ruled he would miss the opening two games and was left out ofjones‘ squad. but his club queried the verdict, meaning he is now available for selection against the wal abbees on the 18th of november if selected. hinkley point has announced her retirement from tennis for what she saysis retirement from tennis for what she says is the third and the final time. she retired at 22. but came

back as a doubles specialist to win another 20 slams —— martina hingis. she is now to retire after the current wta finals in singapore, saying this time it really is for good. now it is definite! it is different. before i walked away, thinking i may come back. so, that was it. but, yeah, this time it's definitely on the big stages of this world, or the grand slams of tennis world i definitely won't be doing that anymore. it is a different way. i think it is the right thing to do this time around. yes, what a career. and no stopping another 37—year—old at the wta finals, venus williams turned the ta bles finals, venus williams turned the tables on the woman that beat her in

the wimbledon women's finals. next they are the world champions and the co—hosts, it is australia against england to get the rugby league world cup under way. england have not beaten australia for 20 years since the opening game of the 19 the 5 world cup. so what chance of them repeating that achievement tomorrow? it's australia's city of sport, and by it's australia's city of sport, and rugby league is about to take centre stage. melbourne's amy park, the venue for the world cup opener in between australia and england. i! yea rs between australia and england. i! years since a british side beat the aussies but this english team believe that they can rewrite history. going from the start, playing the number one team in the world. to come away with a win will be a massive confidence boost for six weeks. it could go a really long way. this is just the first group game. a

win for england would help progress toa win for england would help progress to a possible final. but for the coach, it is performance on the opening night that matters the most. world cup is not one of the games, tournaments, so we have to get better each week. we will not be at our best on friday night, neither will australia. so we will not be at our best on friday night, neitherwill australia. so we will all build into it. we have to do the things i know that we can do to give eave as chance of being there in six weeks‘ time. australia as holders and co—hosts are favourites to win the tournaments but their coach recognises the threat that england pose. they are a very committed side. obviously, disappointed by the four nations, they have a motivated manager and a strong squad, so now they are coming here to ambush us. no doubt about it. i feel it will be our greatest te st it. i feel it will be our greatest test until we get to the finals. but it is notjust about england and

australia, all 11! nations kick off theircampaigns, australia, all 11! nations kick off their campaigns, including the welsh with a tricky test when they go to play against papua new guinea. the irish coming up against an unpredictable italian side and the scots, well, they are against a tonga team who could be an outsider but doing well in the competition. but no doubt, most experts are predicting these two giants to be in the final come december the 2nd. and you can follow the tournament. it is shown across the bbc. the build—up to england‘s game tomorrow begins at 9.00am. the match is kicking off at 10.00am. live on bbc two or listen on bbc radio 5 live sports extra. that is all from sports day. coming up in a moment, the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lynn davidson, whitehall correspondent at the sun and dan bilefsky of the new york times. welcome to both of you. tomorrow‘s front pages. the guardian reports that retail sales are falling at their fastest rate since the recession. the express reports on the story about new population figures, saying migrants are pushing up the the numbers. saying migrants are pushing up the numbers. the metro leads with a story about an alleged neo—nazi targeting a labour mp. the telegraph runs with a story about the number of arrests falling, despite crime being on the rise.

that story also makes the daily mail‘s front page. that story also makes the daily mail‘s front page. the mirror runs with a story that about a bride who saved by a lung transplant, being given away by the father of the organ donor. that‘s a flavour of some of the papers. we will dip into those in a moment. dan, kick us off? so, the telegraph has an alarming story that arrests are falling i2%, at the same time, the number of recorded crimes have reached 5 million for the first time. this could be worrying. the home office is saying that the reason that there have been fewer arrests is because there is a strategy to keep young people out of jail. but it seems smoke and mirrors. indeed some may ask whether it isa

mirrors. indeed some may ask whether it is a signal to criminals that they can get away with crime if you don‘t have the preventive measure of more arrests. i mentioned the phrase "soft justice" which appears in the mail. this story comes in the last couple of weeks and in my newspaper, the sun, we have had a story of police office rs sun, we have had a story of police officers on dodge yellows, them promoting different awareness raising campaigns, where i thinka lot of people would be just graceful if they were back on the beat and arresting criminals who steal bikes, who steal people's mobile phones on the streets, deal with the moped gangs. the police do a really tough job. but they must be directed as well and directed to catching criminals. lynn, staying with you and the telegraph, let‘s talk borisjohnson. well, boris has been on another trip

and yet again gone off message. so, imean, and yet again gone off message. so, i mean, this is not unexpected from him. we know that borisjohnson has always been pro—immigration in the sense that he is not against people coming but he wants control of the numbers that come here.
