post brexit britain — who should be allowed in to work here once the uk has left the european union? the government's advisers say eu nationals shouldn't be given special treatment in future and highly skilled workers from around the world should be allowed in more easily. the impacts of migration depend on things like the skill of the migrants, but not fundamentally on their nationality, and so we don't think there should be a preference for eu citizens over non—eu citizens. we'll be asking if the government will take the advice on board. also on the programme tonight. the reservists who died during an sas march in the brecon beacons — two officers in charge of safety are found not guilty of negligence. a bus driver in his 70s who lost control of his vehicle in coventry did cause the deaths of two people by dangerous driving says a jury. tit—for—tat — the trade war intensfies between america and china after the us slaps more import taxes on chinese goods and china follows suit. claire foy, the crown.

and surprise for claire foy as she beats the favourite for best actress at the emmy‘s in la. coming up on sportsday later in the hour on bbc news. the champions league is back, and it's a tough start for liverpool as they face the french champions paris saint—germain at anfield. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. the government has been told that it should be made easierfor highly skilled workers from around the world to come to the uk after brexit. the migration advisory committee says the cap on skilled workers shoud be lifted. the government's also been told, by its own advisers, that eu workers should not get preferential treatment unless that forms part of the brexit deal. here's our economics editor kamal ahmed. east london making clothes and a

factory that is staffed by 85 percent migrant. the chief executive, any chance to that could cause real headache, they are the ones that are already skilled. they are masters at their profession. if they weren't available to us to a dummett education budget which has had lots of are duckions could be increased, so we could take more people off the unemployment register and give them the skills required. today's my demonstration report says eu migrants have boosted the uk economy, paying more in taxes than they receive in public service, any thing negative effect on wage has been small but house prices have been small but house prices have been pushed up slightly. a higher population means more demand. leeds and the view from the market. concern about immigration has fallen since the brexit referendum. there

area since the brexit referendum. there are a lot of people coming out of education and they are a bit worried about thejob education and they are a bit worried about the job prospects because there might be more competition. there is a doctor in nigeria, if he can't get in and if he is good enough and bring something to the nhs in britain, let him in. as lop as they don't bring in butcher, they are not taking myjob. as they don't bring in butcher, they are not taking my job. what are the big ideas in this report, first end free movement for eu workers. second, no preferential access for eu citizens over other workers once the uk leaves the eu. the report says that position could change, if immigration becomes part of the eu negotiations. third, high skilled immigration should be encouraged and low skilled workers discouraged, apart from if in agriculture sector such as fruit picking. to all those that say that the free movement of

eu workers into the uk has been good for the british economy, you are saying that is not true, that free movement should stop. the problem with free movement is that you don't have control over the number of migrants and you don't have control on the mix of migrant, so we think that if migration is managed there isa that if migration is managed there is a way in which it can accentuate the benefits and mitigate the costs. taking control of our borders, that was the message from the prime minister following was the message from the prime ministerfollowing brexit, was the message from the prime minister following brexit, and was the message from the prime ministerfollowing brexit, and with this report backing that position, the critics are already lining up. this report backing that position, the critics are already lining upli think this report is a missed opportunity, any decision by the government to reduce immigration at the expense of economic growth will be damaging to london, and dancing to our country. the economics of immigration versus the politics and support for more restrictions. when i spoke to unit members after the brexit vote it was very clear that

migration was one of the not the key issue why they voted to leave the eu, so from their perspective, the announcement that will there is going to be a much more measured approach to migration will be warmly welcomed. how high the levels of control will be once the uk leaves the eu? we will know the answer to that when the government announces its long—awaited immigration policy in the next few weeks. our deputy political editor john pienaar is in westminster for us this evening. how likely is the government to take this advice onboard then well the report today is pushing at a politically open door in saying eu citizens should get much the same treatment as non—eu citizen, the prime minister and the home secretary have hinted as much between them and they share the ambition as do ministers of getting down the level of net migration, so many people who voted leave want to see. it is not that simple. brexit never is. we have seen today

business leaders saying they are worried about being demid the low skill workers they need, that it is a continuing worry for brexit. as this report has pointed out, in this report it says there could be some sort agreement as part of a future trade deal to reach an agreed position for worker, until the home secretary is perhaps open to that discussion. politically meanwhile, dividing lines are opening up, between the big parties and inside government. not all ministers agree with theresa may's aim, her promise to bring down net migration below 100,000, that target has been missed again and gp. as far as labour are concerned they are more concerned with workers' conditions an rights than with numbers and they mean to eners for them by means of control of labour agencies and enforcing the minimum wage. the prime minister is keen to have that fight. there is thing she will use her big speech at

the tory conference in a couple of weeks' time to burnish her credentials as being firm on migration. two sas servicemen have been acquitted of negligence following the deaths of three reservists during a selection march in the brecon beacons five years ago. craig roberts, james dunsby and edward mayher died after being taken ill on the 16 mile march on one of the hottest days of the year. the judge said the two men from the sas — who were safety officers — had no case to answer. duncan kennedy reports. this is the gruelling route that shows the unforgiving terrain of brecon beacons. the testing ground for the sas. injuly 2013, craig roberts, edward maher and james dunsby collapsed on the march and died from heat stroke and organ failure. the two military organisers — known to the court as 1a and 1b — were charged with negligence. but today the judge stopped the court martial and ordered that the two men

be found not guilty. he said they were not negligent as individuals, that the real fault lay with what he called the systematic failures of military authorities to train the men properly. the families of men who died said the mod failed in its duty. there is still no official guidance for those conducting endurance marches in the british army on heat illness even five years on. this is beyond unacceptable. and shows blatant ignorance to a vital need, where apparently three deaths are not enough. this was one of the scenes on the day of the incident. the three men had set off on the 15—mile march carrying 50lb backpacks and gps trackers. near the end of the exercise, craig roberts collapsed. edward maher also succumbed

to the 30 degree temparatures. whilst james dunsby was found on the final leg of march. the mod is immune from prosecution. in a statement it said: the three men had pushed themselves to their limits to tryjoin the sas. they died in the pursuit of theirdream, not because of the faults of individuals who were there, but because of a series of fatal shortcomings by the military authorities. a trade war between the united states and china has intensified today after america announced another round of tariffs on imported chinese goods. from monday america will introduce new taxes on 150 billion pounds—worth of chinese goods — things like suitcases, textiles and some foods nearly 6,000 items are affected, making it the biggest round of tariffs so far. but this afternoon china hit back.

it announced it'll slap taxes on £46 billion worth of us goods sent to china. 0ur north america editor, jon sopel. jon, no sign of this ending then. the prime minister no sign of this coming to an end then? sophie, mean donald trump said trade wars have so easy to win, they are if your opponent raises their hands and hoists a white flag, china is showing no signs of wanting to do that, and that is why trade wars potentially are damaging on both sides, there are big risks for donald trump on this. if you put a tariff on good going in that will be passed on the consume consumer here. i think tellingly donald trump is saying we won't introduce that until after christmas, you won't hit

consumers too hard. it is hitting exporter as well whole agricultural produce goes to kind and a lot of farmerles are suffering big time as a result of this. donald trump has reiterated again in the last half hour he is open to talks but for the moment, the language is war, his commerce secretary has said confidently and bullishly we will win this because the chinese are running out of bullets. thank you. israel has rejected russia's claim that it was responsible for the shooting down of a russian military plane by syrian air defences. russia had initially blamed israel, but president putin — speaking alongside hungary's prime minister — later said it was a tragic accident. 15 russian servicemen died when the surveillance aircraft was accidentally hit. a jury has found that a bus driver caused the deaths of two people by dangerous driving in coventry. kailash chander who's now 80 and has dementia was unable to stand trial. he lost control of his bus in october 2015, smashing into a supermarket, killing a seven—year—old boy and a woman in her 70s.

ben ando reports. 12 seconds of terror, that is how long this double decker bus careered down a shopping street on a busy saturday in coventry, before smashing into the fronted of a sainsbury‘s supermarket. tests showed the drive had his foot on the sell traitor all the time. at the wheel was kailash chander. he had worked a double shift that day and worked a double shift that day and worked 75 hourses or more in each of the three previous week, pedestrian dora hancocks was run over and killed while seven—year—old rowan fitzgerald was upstairs and died in the impact: if you mam yourself you are ina the impact: if you mam yourself you are in a bus out of control, it is hitting everything. casper was on the lower deck. . you are in a

restricted area, you have nowhere to run to. it is going to smash, that's it. kailash chander1 a former mayor of lemington but he has been warned about his driving before the tragedy. his bosses were so worried they sent one of their driver trainers undercover to observer his driving. his report makes for shocking reading. he found the bus was frequently speeding, that every bus stop was overshot and on one occasion he pulled away with a passenger only just occasion he pulled away with a passenger onlyjust on the platform and the bus doors still open. ina and the bus doors still open. in a statement, rowan‘s family said we don't want the reasons why rowan and dora died to be forgotten. we wa nt to and dora died to be forgotten. we want to see something positive and we feel this will only come from a change in law on bus driver's age and hours of work. this would prevent anyone having to go through what we have gone through, over the last three years.

the bus operator midland red will be sentenced later after admitting health and safety breaches. kailash chander will never drive the bus again, though many will wonder why he was driving on that day at all. the liberal democrat leader sir vince cable called for a people's vote on the government's final deal on brexit, as closed his party's conference in brighton. he appealed to disillusioned labour and conservative supporters to join the lib dems, and made it clear that he wanted britain to remain in the european union. 0ur political correspondent ben wright was watching and sent this report. hey, hey, theresa may! give us all a final say! this is a party that believes brexit can be stopped. but it's also a party looking for fresh purpose and soon, a new leader after sir vince cable said he would stand down before the next election. he's a lame duck leader now, isn't he? hardly a lame duck, he's not set a specific time, he's said he's got a number of tasks. and one task above all...

brexit is not inevitable. it can and it must be stopped. the lib dems want a second referendum on the brexit deal and sir vince urged the prime minister to follow their example. instead of kowtowing to her enemies in the conservative party, she could lead her party and the country by opening her mind toa people's vote on the final deal. it's not clear how the lib dems would engineer a second referendum but sir vince was scathing about the tories... boris and donald, the terrible twins of the raving right. before swivelling his sights on true labour's leader. ifjeremy corbyn will not say, i will support a people's vote and i will fight brexit, labour members should waive him goodbye. wave him goodbye. his party hoped for a surge in support following the brexit vote, but it didn't happen. now, vince cable says he wants it to become the home for voters he describes as moderate and perhaps allow non—mps to become its leader. there are millions who can see

that the two main parties have been hijacked by those who want to turn their backs on the modern, interconnected world. together, we can and we will win. he is putting in new reforms which will really make it an exciting party. i think we're doing well, but i think we can do a lot better. we are a liberal country and yet the lib dems are not seen as being the people that you naturally go to — but we will be. and that's the challenge? i hope so. but it will be a new generation in charge. ben wright, bbc news, brighton. our top story this evening. government advisers say eu nationals shouldn't get preferential treatement to work here post brexit and it should be made easier for highly skilled migrants to come to the uk. and still to come...

the american director who stole the show at the emmys with a surprise proposal. coming up on sportsday later in the hour on bbc news. the champions league is back, and it's a tough start for liverpool, as they face the french champions paris saint—germain at anfield. injust over six months' time, the uk will leave the european union. all this week, bbc news is answering some of the most common questions that are being asked about brexit and its impact. one of them is what brexit could mean for england, wales, scotland and northern ireland — for the union as a whole. 0ur scotland editor, sarah smith, has this assessment. will problems with the irish border stop brexit? how will trade work after brexit? why haven't we left yet? what will brexit mean for the union?

the brexit vote showed scotland really is a different country, with a very different political outlook. that was demonstrated very clearly when 62% of scots voted to remain in the eu, with 38% wanting to leave. some hoped, others feared that scotland being taken out of the eu against its will would lead more scots to think it's time to leave the uk. nicola sturgeon certainly thought so. last year, here at her official residence in edinburgh, she announced plans for a second referendum on scottish independence. what scotland deserves... a vote which she wanted to take place before the uk left the eu. but westminster said no, and scotland didn't seem very keen. just three months later, at the general election, the snp lost 21 seats. the anti—referendum tories gained 12. the message was pretty clear. ironically, brexit‘s actually going to make the scottish parliament considerably more powerful. once we leave the eu,

many of the powers currently exercised in brussels over things like agriculture and the environment will come directly here, to holyrood. but not everything that the scottish government thinks should be devolved will come straight to edinburgh. there's been a bitter battle over control and that is why msps would not approve the eu withdrawal bill. when the scottish parliament voted in may to refuse to give its consent to the eu withdrawal bill, westminster decided to ignore it and impose the bill any way. that's the first time that's happened in nearly 20 years of devolution. now this may sound like an obscure procedural argument, but it could have profound constitutional consequences. if or when there is another referendum on scottish independence, this will be used as an example of why the scottish parliament needs complete control of its own affairs. nicola sturgeon will update us

on her plans for another independence referendum next month. if she was expecting brexit to create a surge in support for independence, she will have been disappointed. 0pinion polls have hardly moved. but already, the process of leaving the eu has severely strained relations between edinburgh and london. and may yet test the ties that bind the united kingdom. sarah smith, bbc news, edinburgh. and we'll have more key brexit questions coming up throughout the week, and you can watch the series so far on the bbc iplayer — just click on the news category. funerals will be held tomorrow in burnley for the british couple who died suddenly at a holiday resort in egypt. today, inquests into the deaths ofjohn and susan cooper were opened and adjourned. egyptian post—mortem examinations found e.coli was a factor in their deaths — something their daughter has dismissed. judith moritz reports. a month ago, kelly 0rmerod was enjoying a holiday with her parents. today, she arrived at court for the inquest into their deaths. john and susan cooper

had gone away with their daughter and grandchildren for a break in egypt. they were staying at the steigenberger aqua magic hotel in the red sea resort of hurghada. the couple were in their room late one night when they became suddenly unwell. they died a few hours later. an egyptian investigation said e.coli bacteria was to blame, but the family disputes this and a british post—mortem has proved inconclusive. the coroner, drjames adeley, said that he'd be pressing the egyptian authorities for a wide range of documentation, including police and forensic reports, as well as lab tests. but he warned that from the uk, he has no legal power to force the egyptians to cooperate and said it could take months or even years to get the information. the coroner offered his condolences to the coopers' daughter. what's happened today with dr adeley, i'm very happy with. at the moment now, we've got to go home and prepare for a funeral tomorrow.

kelly 0rmerod has previously said she has no faith in the egyptian authorities, but it may take a long time for the british legal process to find answers. judith moritz, bbc news, preston. the inquest into the death of pc keith palmer in the westminster terror attack has been told that security at the palace of westminster, hadn't functioned for years. one of the officers on duty at the time of the attack — carried out by khalid masood — said it was possible that an opportunity to save pc palmer's life had been lost, because nobody guarding the gate was armed. the head teacher of the school featured in the channel 4 series educating greater manchester has resigned. drew povey was suspended from harrop fold school in salford because of claims that there had been incorrect recording of attendance, exclusions and home schooling. 0ur education correspondent marc ashdown reports. it was once labelled the worst school in the country. but harrop fold has had a remarkable turnaround. i'm going to change somebody‘s life

i do myjob properly. if i do myjob properly. millions have followed the fortunes of headteacher drew povey and his team in the tv series educating greater manchester. but today, he resigned. he says a nine—month investigation by salford council into how a handful of pupil records were kept has blown up into a disproportionate, personal vendetta against him. they have tried to bully me, but that's something i'm not going to take lying down. it's a really sad day today, i think it's probably made worse because i don't feel it's necessary in these circumstances. but record—keeping is a hot topic, 0fsted recently raised concerns about whether some schools remove underachieving pupils to improve their overall results. drew povey maintains this was a tiny admin error. we could easily boost our results if we did play the results game, but the fact of the matter is, we don't, and it's well—documented that we're an inclusive school. but it was a mistake. it was a mistake, yeah, absolutely it was a mistake and we held our hands up.

0ne union says the high pressure, results—based climate surrounding headteachers is damaging recruitment. we get phone calls every week from people who have been doing good work suddenly losing theirjob often because of a very short—term view, a view that these are like football managers who will come in, do a season, turn the school round — it doesn't work like that. drew povey has offered to stay involved with harrop fold school on a voluntary basis. salford council has rejected his claims of bullying and said the investigation into record—keeping will continue, in the interests of the school. marc ashdown, bbc news. british stars had a good night at the emmys, america's biggest tv awards, last night with claire foy, thandie newton and matthew rhys among those picking up prizes. but it was an american director with a surprise proposal who stole the show, as james cook reports from los angeles. tv may be changing, with debates about diversity and a surge in streaming services, but some affairs are internal. but some affairs are eternal,

like hollywood's passion for a party and its love for a british accent. claire foy, the crown. this was her first emmy, and her last chance to win it for portraying the queen. i had the most extraordinary two—and—a—half years of my life. i'm not going to cry... ..on this programme. i was given a role that i never thought i would ever get a chance to play, and i met people who i will love for ever and ever and ever. fellow brit thandie newton was also honoured for west world. i don't even believe in god, but i'm going to thank her tonight. there was british success, too, for writer charlie brooker as well as director stephen daldry and satiristjohn 0liver. game of thrones, which certainly sounds british, regained its best drama crown. the emmy goes to matthew rhys! the welsh actor matthew rhys

triumphed in cold war thriller the americans. so, the remarkable, outsize influence of british actors on the entertainment industry continues. but that is not what everyone's talking about here. jan, you are the sunshine in my life... it was this director's speech which stole the show. you wonder why i don't like to call you my girlfriend? because i want to call you my wife. glenn weiss making drama of his own. will you marry me? she said yes, thank goodness, leaving this happy couple the toast of tinseltown. james cook, bbc news, los angeles. time for a look at the weather... here's darren bett. we were talking about late summer

yesterday and now we have got a storm coming our way? yes, this is what we have got to look forward to over the next couple of days, some very windy conditions, heavy rain and travel disruption and some damage is quite likelyjust the storm is set to arrive tomorrow. right now the winds are easing down a little bit. we have got some showers pushing eastwards at the moment, there will be some clear spells later in the night although the winds will pick up and there will be rain arriving in northern ireland, the arrival of the storm. this is the deepening area of low pressure, this is the storm, it's going to drive across northern ireland, into scotland and pick up those winds as well during the morning. this is where we are expecting the peak of the winds to be, this is where we have the number wind warning from the net office. with those kind of numbers there is likely to be some damage and disruption. south to south—westerly winds across—the—board. here is the

rain which comes with wind in the morning across northern ireland, rushing into scotland and behind it, frequent and heavy showers. we have got this line of rain moving eastwards a cross got this line of rain moving eastwards across england and wales. it will squeeze away the last of the warmth in east anglia and the south—east. less warm in scotland and northern ireland, but that is not really the storage of the storm should be out of the way as we move into thursday. the rain is going to stop and it will come back again, we are not exactly sure where it will stop but it looks like for most of the day the south—east corner may miss most of the rain. you can see how it turns much wetter elsewhere across england and wales. though rain notfar across england and wales. though rain not far away from northern ireland and western scotland. under the rain not feeling very warm at all but this is the last of the warmth for a while in the south—east corner, where it should be largely dry. a reminder of our top story...

government advisers say eu nationals shouldn't get preferential treatement to work here post brexit and it should be easierfor highly skilled migrants to come to the uk. that's all from the bbc news at six. 0n bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. hello, this is bbc news. time for the latest headlines. an official report says it should be easier for highly skilled workers to move to the uk after breakfast. men have been acquitted of negligence in connection with an march in the summer of 2013 in which three reservists died. a bus driver in his 70s who lost control of his vehicle in coventry did cause the deaths of two people by dangerous driving says julie.
