of protected wildlife was prohibited on their sites and they removed his post prohibited on their sites and they removed these posts after we reported them. but the trade is not confined to one species. orangutans make up nearly 70% of the great apes that are seized bylaw enforcement. this two—year—old was found on a bus in jakarta. do you know where you put your luggage, that is where she was for 10 hours. when they found her she was traumatised to the bone. she did not eat, she did not drink, it was really difficult for us to get her going because she lost all her will to live. while rehabilitation programmes like this can get a few animals back to the wild each year they are not making a dent in the impact of the trade. over about a 20 year period where orangutans specifically were either confiscated or donated there were only seven prosecutions out of those 400 cases. so it's a huge issue. habitat destruction here as well as the pet trade continues to fuel

a decline in these apes. and while this precious new family is now safe in the wild conservationists will have to fight for the future of this species. victoria gill, bbc news, westjava. time for a look at the weather... here's louise lear. changeable, but nothing too severe, probably makes up the weather this week. a soggy affair, plenty of rain, quite mild under the rain, some of that heavy pushing in from the west. behind it, quite a clea ra nce, the west. behind it, quite a clearance, bright skies, sunshine, cooler, take a look at this gorgeous afternoon in south lanarkshire stop behind this front, it will clear, that will be the theme, we started the week, cold, crisp and frosty,

the week, cold, crisp and frosty, the slice of mind are behind by head, but will be the story, mild are continuing to push across the country, short lived, a frost, mild are returning towards the end of the working week but look at the weekend, the cold blue returning as weekend, the cold blue returning as we go towards the weekend, a cold north—westerly wind, cold and crisp but for that, let's look at this. the weather front still has to clear, up through the south coast gci’oss clear, up through the south coast across the midlands into the south—east for the afternoon, still some of the rain heavy perhaps gci’oss some of the rain heavy perhaps across dorset, into the midlands gci’oss across dorset, into the midlands across lincolnshire. wea kening across dorset, into the midlands across lincolnshire. weakening as a vicious to the south—east, not arriving significantly until early evening. behind it, sunshine coming through across much of wales, northern ireland, scattering of showers, isolated, if you catch one of these it could be heavy with a rumble of thunder, cool and

crispier. overnight the weather front clearing, taking its time, behind it, wind is light, temperature is likely to dip, patchy mist and fog forming, frost likely the further north and west you are, in rural spots low temperatures of minus four degrees, frosty start but another slice of sunshine to look forward to. the cloud drizzly rain lingering in the southeast, clear skies following, decent day, the next weather system pushing in bringing slightly milder are and some wet weather. but interesting to point out, once these fronts clear and they will do so, a fairly weak affair, takea and they will do so, a fairly weak affair, take a look at what's happening in the atlantic, this significant low pressure could be an issue as we get towards friday. there that in mind. louise, thank you. that's all from the bbc news at one so it's goodbye from me lloyd, the very latest from the bbc

sports centre. lloyd, the very latest from the bbc sports centre. david moyes says he has a point to prove after becoming the new west ham manager. he is yet to confirm who his backroom staff will be, amid rumours that he will bring in stuart pearce as his number two. moyes took training for the first time this morning. he's been out of work since he left sunderland after they were relegated at the end of last season. it's only been the lastjob where i feel that it wasn't a good move and they didn't enjoy it work out well. i'm hungry to make sure i get things right. any football manager wants to win, and thatis football manager wants to win, and that is what i want to do. i want to win and make sure that for me, the

supporters, everybody enjoyed their saturday night because we are winning games. the fans we caught up with this morning were unhappy that bilic had been sacked and unconvinced that moyes was the right replacement, but willing to give him a go. david moyes, he was good at everton, but the other clubs he has been to, not so good. at the same time, he is here. the fans have got to get behind him because if they don't as far as behind him because if they don't as faras i'm behind him because if they don't as far as i'm concerned they are not getting the hang their team. he hasn't got a great track record, but he could turn it around. of god to give him time. the fans have to try and get behind him. if we have stuart pearce coming in that would bea stuart pearce coming in that would be a good thing. let's see what happens, but i am still gutted for slaven bilic, an as as west ham. manchester city's raheem sterling and fabian delph have returned to their club after being ruled out of england's upcoming friendlies. liverpool'sjordan henderson will also miss out on the back—to—back games against germany and brazil at wembley stadium through injury. both harry kane and harry winks have already been ruled out, while chelsea defender gary cahill hasjoined the squad

for training today. steven finn will miss the ashes series after picking up a knee injury while training in australia. finn was brought in to replace ben stokes, who hasn't travelled with the squad, following his arrest. but the seamer is flying home for treatment on a knee injury. the first ashes test starts on the 23rd of this month and the england coach has already decided on most of the side for that test. we know the team for england's opening first—class match, against a cricket australia eleven starting tomorrow in adelaide. jake ball and craig overton are given a chance to make a claim for an ashes spot. stuart broad is rested, but he's sure to feature in that first test in just over a fortnight and he says that although the squad is missing ben stokes, his spirit is still in the camp. obviously, every team in the world would want somebody like ben stokes in there, but we still got his character within the group, his characteristics, that competitive spirit, that arm right people that he has done for years. that's still

in this group, so without sounding cheesy, ben stokes is still here, we still have part of him in the script, whether he is in australia oi’ script, whether he is in australia or not. script, whether he is in australia or not. england's women are preparing for their crucial ashes test which begins on thursday. they've been training at the sydney oval, knowing that only a win will do. they currently trail australia 4—2. if australia win the test, they can't be beaten in the series. it was imperative that we learnt a lot from the last game, the last three days. i think not only have we learnt more, but some of the youngsters have really picked up a lot of information that wasn't there before, so it is important that we spend the next few days really going on from that. and, hopefully, there will be a nice little wind over here inafew will be a nice little wind over here in a few days. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. i'll have more for you in the next hour. good afternoon, you are watching bbc

news. there have been questioned in the house of commons this lunchtime following criticism of the international development secretary priti patel after she apologised for meeting the israeli violinist and government officials while she was on her summer holiday and without informing the foreign office. downing street has already said it will tighten the ministerial code of conduct. the international development minister, alistair burt, has defended her actions. the foreign and commonwealth office was informed during the course of the visit, but not before and the secretary of state has been very clear and absolutely contrite in her statement yesterday. she recognises of course that you should have informed the foreign office before the visit, but she didn't. that is why she has apologised. in the statement she has given full details

of the meeting she had. they are not verbatim accounts that she has given details of who she saw and the subjects discussed. i don't think that that means they were particularly secret meetings, particularly secret meetings, particularly as the foreign office was aware during the course of the desert that she had been seeing people in israel. in relation to the code, the international development secretary has apologised to the prime ministerfor her secretary has apologised to the prime minister for her handling secretary has apologised to the prime ministerfor her handling of this matter and the prime minister has accepted her apology. the foreign office was aware of her visit while she was away and the foreign office is also clear that uk interest were not damaged or affected by these meetings. the prime minister regards the matter is closed. can i say a couple more things. if you look at to my right honourable friend met, from leading politicians to the emergency

humanitarian aid ngo, work on water, farming, solarand humanitarian aid ngo, work on water, farming, solar and hospital projects in africa, visit to save child's ha rd to in africa, visit to save child's hard to talk about coexistence project, big galilee international management interests, meeting with groups focusing on start—ups in africa. does the right honourable lady thinks she should not have met these people? if i had been in israel and on a two—day visit i would've wanted a programme just like this. i would have told the ambassador, of course i would, but if you look at the quality of the meetings, whose she saw and what her job is, these are all absolutely pertinent to that. more now on borisjohnson‘s comments about a british—iranian woman being held in prison in tehran. the bbc has learned that mrjohnson has spoken to his iranian

counterpart this morning to clarify his comments about a british—iranian woman being held in prison in teheran. last week, mrjohnson told mps that nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe had been training journalists — something her family have always denied, insisting she was visiting relatives. earlier, richard ratcliffe, the husband of ms zaghari—ratcliffe spoke to my colleague victoria derbyshire. imean, i mean, that is exactly, he said three things. he said he condemned iranfor three things. he said he condemned iran for its arbitrary decision, which i am pleased with this. he said he she was training journalists, and that is not right. then that he would visit, which we are happy about. she was brought in front of the most severe of the revolutionary guard judges and she was found guilty of promoting

propaganda against the regime. it carries a double sentence because she is now being classed as a repeat offender. we will see where it goes. what do you want from borisjohnson? he made a statement in parliament and the say sometimes things that we don't go right. i think the important thing, rather than a private phone call to the foreign minister, is in parliament to say, she is innocent, she is a mother on holiday and she wasn't training journalists. that is then clear to the iranians and can't be manipulated in the way that the union press has been doing. you co mforta ble union press has been doing. you comfortable to see him stay in his job? it is not my place to say what would happen with the foreign secretary. is he good enough? i only have one interesting one foreign—policy issue, that is nazanin. iam foreign—policy issue, that is nazanin. i am glad that he engaged with on‘s case last week, glad he

condemned iran. i don't want him to back away. just to update you with what has been happening in holyrood. the security incident at the scottish parliament is not over. much of the building has been evacuated a little bit earlier on today after packages we re bit earlier on today after packages were found which appear to contain white powder. that was investigated but we are hearing that that security incident is now over, according to a spokesman for the parliament. the american air force has admitted it failed to alert the federal authorities about the violent past of the man responsible for the mass shooting in texas. the pentagon says it will investigate why the air force didn't enter a domestic violence conviction into a national database that would have prohibited devin kelley from buying weapons. kelley, a former airman, killed 26 people at a church in the tiny community of sutherland springs on sunday.

rajini vaidya nathan reports. killed as they prayed. the faces of some of the victims of sunday's church shooting. brian and carla alcorn were two of nine members of the same family who were killed. brian was about to lead worship when he was shot dead. and 16—year—old haley krueger who dreamt of becoming a nurse. floral tributes have been laid outside the church. the youngest to die was just 18 months old. churches are often the focal point of communities. so too here in this small texas town where virtually everyone was touched by this tragedy and knew someone who was at sunday's service. police now believe that this place of worship was targeted by the gunman. police say devin kelley, the gunman, was motivated by a personal grudge against his mother—in—law who occasionally worshipped at the church. he'd sent threatening texts to her.

there are many ways that he could have taken care of the mother—in—law without coming with 15 loaded magazines and an assault rifle to a church. i think he came here with a purpose and a mission. the gunman died after two local men chased him firing shots in his direction. he sustained three gunshot wounds. one was self—inflicted. the men who made chase are being hailed as heroes. some say the fact they had guns helped saved lives but, as is the case of mass shootings in the us, others say the massacre at this church should serve as yet another reason for tighter gun controls in america. a welsh politician has been found dead just days after he was suspended

from the labour party due to sex allegations. carl sargeant, a former chief whip and environment minister for the welsh government was found dead at an address in connah's quay, north wales, earlier today. we have just had a statement through from north wales police. they are telling us that they were called to reports that the body had been found at 11:30am this morning. james williamsjoins me at 11:30am this morning. james williams joins me from at 11:30am this morning. james williamsjoins me from cardiff. explain the background to this and what we know, james. as you can imagine, an incredible sense of shock you at the assembly about the news that broke about an hour ago that carl sargeant as we understand that carl sargeant as we understand

that has taken his life. we have had a statement from the police in the last few minutes saying that approximately at 11:30am this morning northville police were called to report that the body of a man been found. carl sargeant had been an assembly member here since 2003, a minister in the welsh government since 2007, but had lost hisjob ina government since 2007, but had lost hisjob in a government reshuffle that was undertaken by the first minister on friday. that was linked to allegations that were made by a series of woman about his conduct. he had the whip removed by the labour party and that investigation was being undertaken. we have had a number of responses. business here in the assembly has been cancelled for the day as a mark of respect. the first minister has said in a statement carl sargeant was a friend as well as a colleague and i am shocked and deeply saddened by his

death. he made a big contribution to welsh public life and fought tirelessly for those who represented both as a minister and local assembly member. he will be a great loss both to our party and the synod. we have heard from jeremy corbyn, he has said that the death was deeply shocking news and the family has released a statement saying that the relatives were devastated beyond words at the loss of the glue that binds us together. james williams, thank you. in a moment, a summary of the business news this hour, but first the headlines on bbc news: the foreign secretary says he will visit iran as he faces pressure to retract comments he has made by the british iranian women being held in tehran. downing street has said it will tighten the ministerial code of conduct after the international development secretary held meetings

in israel but by telling the foreign office. donald trump has urged north korea to come to the table and discuss giving up its nuclear weapons. i'm rachel horne. in the business news: from sugar to fashion, associated british foods covers a broad section of british retail and posted profits up 22% over the year to september, but shares in the owner of primark have dropped by as much as 4% today after warnings that profits in their sugar sector will fall in this financial year. while primark‘s revenues were up i9%, retails sales generally are not looking so healthy. the british retail consortium has said sales of non—food items grew at the slowest pace since records began. clothing sales were "particularly hard hit", as families appear to be spending more on outdoor experiences and excursions. house prices are rising strongly across the uk, according to the halifax. in the year to october, prices rose by 4.5%, up from 4% in september and the fastest rise since february.

it brings the average price of a uk house to a new record high of £225,826. food and beverage industry professionals are meeting at a conference in coventry to discuss issues impacting the industry such as sustainability, brexit and manufacturing. the conference takes place as uncertainty grows within the sector as negotiations gather pace in brussels ahead of brexit. the food and drink industry, the uk's largest manufacturing sector, potentially faces a loss of eu workers, subsidies and the unwinding of eu regulations and laws that govern the industry. chris sturman, chief executive of the food storage and distribution federation joins us now. chris, thank you forjoining us on the news channel. what is the mood like at conference today? very buzzy. it is a very busy conference, covering the whole of the food & drink supply chain. i can tell you

that the delegates are enjoying a wide range of papers which are being given by experts from right away across the sector, manufacturing, it, distribution, logistics and so on. we mention brexit, what are the concerns about brexit from your members? i think it is concerning the uncertainty of it all, and recognising that transport is a key aspect of our economy as a whole and we really have to get the transport issues buttoned down if we can, particularly in the food chain so we can be assured that this sort of level and quality of products we have been used to in supermarkets and across the food service as well continues to roll into our shops, restau ra nts, continues to roll into our shops, restaurants, pubs, continues to roll into our shops, restau ra nts, pu bs, clu bs continues to roll into our shops, restaurants, pubs, clubs and so on. ona restaurants, pubs, clubs and so on. on a practical level, what are your members saying that they need to know from the government about what will happen when brexit comes into

effect? i think we need to know particularly because 28% of everything we eat comes from the eu, what is going to happen to do with the borders. there are two separate issues here. there is the irish border, and my members in northern ireland want to make sure that whatever is now the operative method remain so and there is no barrier to trade. i guess that is the same with oui’ trade. i guess that is the same with our friends trade. i guess that is the same with ourfriends in the republic trade. i guess that is the same with our friends in the republic as well, especially when they sell 66% of all their food especially when they sell 66% of all theirfood manufacturing especially when they sell 66% of all their food manufacturing products into the uk market. on top of that, i think we have also got to really get to grips with how the border process is going to happen. how hmrc are getting on with their new customs declaration service, they're it project, because it really has to

be in place by march 2019 so it will be in place by march 2019 so it will be ready for the huge increase in transactions which will have to be dealt with on a day by day basis. after all, 111,000 lorries a day, over into the uk through dover and calais, of which probably 15 to 20% carry food. there has to be a transparency, new methodology of controlling those particular movements so that there isn't any further 12 time per vehicle as there is now. otherwise, we are going to see the sort of situations with operation stack in the uk and the french version in france and belgium with vehicles trying to get across,

particularly carrying import into the uk, but then of course there is the uk, but then of course there is the whole export process. here we are as a country building up as superb amount of sales outside the uk and to the rest of europe and the rest of the world and we really can't have those disrupted by an additional bureaucracy which doesn't need to be there. chris, thank you very much for your time. chris, thank you very much for your time. in other business news: hiscox, the specialist insurer, has said that the cost of the caribbean hurricane catastrophes to the insurance industry has already started to push insurance prices up, with some premiums rising by 50%. the hurricanes, not to mention the earthquakes in mexico, are expected to create up to $100 billion of claims across the industry. the japanese car giant toyota has reported a 13% rise in net profit for the first half of the year. the car maker made more than $9 billion in the last six months. toyota says the results were helped by cost—cutting
